WAAAY back in the 1980s/early 90s there was a file manager called "pathminder" or PMV...

It was THE best file manager ever. I could browse my entire hard drive from memory alone via WASD type input and I would know exactly where I was just from memory and key presses...

If you ever played the game "The Bards Tale" there was a version, maybe 3 or such, where you could recall exactly the steps taken to get to a specific dungeon and could type that out very fast and get there via just recalling the steps it took to get there....

PMV was like that.... you knew that [Directory] was a series of steps in PMV which you could quickly type out.
They're trying to find the broken component; what caused the issue is usually a handful of things in space. Those are usually the top causes of component failure in that environment.
I hear you, but this is apples and peanuts, not even oranges. There's little risk you're going to accidentally launch your mower into a car, building, a person. It stays on the ground. A small mistake or moment of inattention, or mower failure won't cause it to drop from hundreds of feet down onto who ever is below.

There's also awareness of where you can and cannot operate drones and people should know this. You are after all occupying air space. If drones could only fly up 30 feet it would be a different story but they can go quite far. People fly them over protected airspace, crash them in random places... Last thing you want is people flying them over airports, over busy streets or highways where they can crash into planes, get sucked in to engines, crash into cars and cause accidents, etc etc...

They're not asking people to take hundreds of hours of flight to get certified, just a short awareness course for those who have no common sense... You don't need to blow a gasket to have a drone accident. It's not like drones are crash proof and all aware of airspace restrictions. Just don't want to have accidents in places that can affect others or have people fly them into places that will automatically trigger an emergency responses and disrupt operations and waste time and money... Like a drone over an airport where they'll dispatch security to take down the drone and interrupt all flights taking off or landing. Thats a LOT of money for one person's ignorance or stupidity.

I'm all for freedom as long as your 10 minutes of good times don't cost others a ton of money and the reality is there's a ton that can go wrong even with no intent on doing anything wrong.

It appears it's not the 1st time Quantas has problems both with oxygen tanks and oxygen masks.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qantas_Flight_30

"The flight was interrupted on the Hong Kong leg by an exploding oxygen tank that ruptured the fuselage just forward of the starboard wing root"

"After the accident, four passengers said that their oxygen masks did not deploy, whilst others had deteriorated elastic. It was stated that these passengers were deprived of oxygen until the plane had descended to a breathable altitude."
Can we stop linking the remote vs onsite decision and the amount of meeting vs quiet time with "trust".

All these issues are separate and - in my experience - very rarely tied together. You can be a remote first, no meeting company and have deep trust issues (eg: requiring very precise time sheets). Or have an absolute trust in your employees and have communications issues which leads to too many meetings being needed.

Just saying that "you require onsite presence because you don't trust me", or "too many meetings are required because you don't trust your employees" is detrimental to the debate. You corner the whole discussion around trust, which is most cases is not the actual problem, and the core issues are then not addressed.
> Apple doesn’t care about making products for everyone

Can you give me a quote from the company or an otherwise official statement that supports this?
Although I don't have a control group for this I'm almost certain I have been exposed to T. Gondii when I was really young. Children, me included, were playing in public sandboxes, and child parks lined with sand. There were cats there, and I am certain I dug up something I now recognize as cat poop multiple times. Of course, then it was of no importance to me.
For how I've been affected, people do describe me as lacking fear, over 20 years later. I have not done any tests though.

> I think China is just trying to take pot shots and their comments on the situation really just shows how their leadership appears to act like children

Yes. The reasoning behind their statements is a a way to distract from Canadian criticisms of Chinese human rights abuses, but the political agendas behind their statements do not make them any less true.

> Maybe the church should be shouldering more of the blame here perhaps?

I see this sentiment a lot in Canada with regards to the "who should be responsible for fixing this" question. The Church bearing all the responsibility gives most Canadians the convenient out of feeling deeply uncomfortable with a core part of their identity being associated with these horrific crimes. All Canadians are Canadian, but only some Canadians are Catholic after all. The history of these events tell us that both the government and the church were heavily involved, so I don't find the question "well which entity is MORE at fault" to be particularly useful.

What has been most shocking to me is the normalizing of postmodern thinking in American politics and journalism. The idea that there is an objective reality, facts, truth/falseness, e.g. the sum of votes for candidate A was greater than for candidate B, seems quaint and naive. There are now only competing narratives and “alternative facts” that you have on the menu to choose from. It all seems quite fucked up to me.
BuzzFeed announces plans to go public via SPAC, targets $1.5B valuation
I have lived in places where I had a lower opinion of my congressperson than of the rest of congress, and where the majority voted the opposite direction from myself on laws and ballot measures.

I still found the local news to be much more professional about doing a matter-of-fact reporting job than national news, even for national outlets I may agree with in terms of bias.

Also PBS news has been quite good over the years that I watched it (though I haven't watched any recently, as the current events themselves have become such stress-inducing toxicity, regardless who reports it).

I find it very strange how little the genocide and forced re-educations of Native Americans is focused on in schools. Winners really do write all the narratives.
So you're making an argument against the concept of respecting someone's requested pronouns, because it's "not difficult for you to imagine" a situation where you would "feel silly" even though you've never even encountered someone who asked you to use even non-silly pronouns.

Great contribution.

The sad thing is that while this is only a conversation on the internet, there are people out there passing laws affecting actual humans with the same amount of actual exposure to those humans and based entirely on their own imagined discomfort.
The article doesn't mention when they died.
Companies in Germany mostly have a local number from the area where they are physically located. If a company has multiple sites around the country, they mostly use a number within their HQ area or they get a service/freephone number redirecting to their call center.

Bundesnetzagentur (the regulatory agency for telecommunication, electricity, gas, etc.) has very strict rules which are enforced and the fines can be very expensive, so nobody tries to find a loophole in the system.

How strict are they? Oh boy, they can be worse then your worst nightmare. About 10-15 years ago, a few friends noticed stuff going missing from the shed (it was beer, so it was very serious). They ordered and installed a cheap wireless camera from china and started recording. A few days later they got a letter from Bundesnetzagentur stating they use a restricted frequency and have to stop immediately or they will be fined X000€ (don't remember the exact amount, but it was four figures so a lot of money for students. Also, pretty high for a first offense). Yes, it was the camera which was using some weird frequency band. But how did the Bundesnetzagentur found them? They were wardriving around the city and checking for unusual signals. Literally a few guys in a van filled with RF equipment driving through the city and looking for suspicious stuff [0].

They probably were driving their laps and checking security, since we have a few high profile institutions here, but got a few drunken university guys with a cheap webcam from the internet.

At least in England and Wales the pandemic seems to have led to a reduction in crime:

> Total police recorded crime decreased by 4% in England and Wales to approximately 5.8 million offences in the 12 months ending June 2020; police reported crime levels were relatively stable from July 2019 to March 2020 and the annual decrease was mainly driven by substantial falls during the April to June 2020 period, particularly in theft offences.

I don't think HN is "tediously and odiously consumed with 'moderate voices'". That comment was made by an individual, me in this case, not by some hypothetical Hacker News entity.

What about the comment makes it odious or tedious?
Lots of downvotes and no actual discussion.

Pretty much sums up Brexit.
Yes, all airspace. If you're out walking, driving, or erecting a structure, you're entitled to its usage provided you're not creating an air navigation hazard. The general understanding is that you're entitled to airspace on your property, and to a limited extent on the property of others, insofar as the usage of that airspace is necessary to use the land itself. Flying anything is not, from a legal and regulatory perspective, understood to be a usage related to the land itself.

This issue has been settled for quite some time in US law. The main grey areas that exist are debates over what sorts of exceptions should be made for reasonable use of UAV/drones at low altitudes.
Hello Mods. I'd like to report a racist shithead. Thanks!

What if we (Earth) are someone else's exoplanet?
At least 1,715 nearby star systems sat at a perfect angle to view Earth during the past 5,000 years, meaning aliens living in those systems, if they exist and have the right technology, could have watched our planet from afar as early human civilizations first emerged.
LOL, of course, these "many people on the right" don't want a gas canister shot into their baby's crib.

The problem is that they don't seem to mind if the cops shoot a gas canister into someone else's baby's crib, as long as that someone else is different from them.

That debt is only part of the student finance picture. It’s difficult paying off a credit card, overdraft, commuting, potentially car insurance and rent at the same time. That £20 is a fairly significant amount of cash when you’re in that position. Most people end in that situation and some never escape it.

My daughter is hoping to study medicine next year. That’s going to be interesting on the finance front.
... They consider The Economist leftist? Note that The Economist is extremely open about supporting neoliberal economics, being generally anti-tax and anti-regulation.

That just isn't the case. People trust you if you re-enforce their biases. The news sources that are getting the most traction aren't the most objective ones.
This seems like a new iteration of the Canadian series How It's Made (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/How_It%27s_Made), in which the camera shows how products are made, always highlighting the quality of the materials and the care taken to produce them, but never showing the externalities. While most of the time the product names were not explicitly shown, it was still possible to see some labels and find it out.

more likely it's so there's a legal ability to prevent someone from flying drones around if they are causing problems
I've never liked this phrase. It sets up the wrong conflict. Police vs. Everybody Else.

It's obvious that society needs a police force. But it's also obvious to me that American policing is in need of serious reform. When your slogan targets the general concept of "Police" it gives the bad (many aspects of modern American policing) coverage to hide under the good (the concept of having police at all)

It's why the common retort to this line of rhetoric is "Well, when your house gets broken into you'll need us" - Yes, but when I call the cops I don't want to have to worry about my dog getting shot, or a SWAT team coming to my door armed to the teeth, improperly trained and trigger happy.

Efforts should be focused around reformation, not blanket just hating cops. "Defund the police" just sounds overly punitive. I wouldn't want to do that job either if I felt like everybody hated me.
"Kill the indian to save the man" was how they thought of it.

I agree it's confusing in the title, but in context in the article it's more clear that the researchers call it "vegan spider silk" to capture their intention of creating a material with the properties of spider silk, using the same structure that makes spider silk strong at a molecular level, but using raw materials that can be sustainably derived from plants.

News needs to become a protected class of information that has strong controls against misinformation. It should not be in a similar class of freedom of speech which includes any and all opinions.
Depends on the company, but I’ve observed that information now flows a lot freely because of public Slack channels and documents.

Before there was a lot of tribal knowledge, and side conversations but now the level of transparency has increased dramatically.

They do, it’s how the schools are designed to encourage bullying and bearings from staff and teachers.

It was not one school or one teacher.

Of course Canadians just want to pretend it was just one group they screwed with, I’m just simply pointing out that it was NOT an isolated thing that Canadian schools are pure trash.

The opposite is true as well. At a large company, spread across floor, buildings, and locations, the only in-person "serendipitous" conversations you're going to have are with a fairly small slice of the company. That seems a pretty shaky foundation for innovation to depend on.
Haha, yes. It has certainly been challenging but for the most part totally worth it.

Unless you want to get rid of debt and credit creation, we'll need intermediaries. You can already do P2P lending and funding if that's your thing... you'll realize it's risky and a lot more expensive than using banks.
By job market, I mean freelancing too. In some contracts you'll be building a Most Viable Product from scratch. Flutter is better at this, don't need to real with the mess that is adapters/recyclerview/viewholders. A lot of the projects at this stage don't have high budgets though, and often they want to hire one dev instead of two.

In more senior contracts, you'll be rewriting an app from scratch or redoing the architecture. I did work with a freelancer for half a year, the Jetpack experience and ability to just jump into the code was essential.
Both much of the Eurozone and the UK have particularly poor situations for young graduates because of the economically contractive way both handled the last financial crisis.

The UK has compounded the situation by increasing debt for students, structured student load repayment so that payments kick in at an income threshold, and then embarked on the Brexit adventure.

It's a mistake to look at the supply of graduates without looking at the changes in the graduate labour market.

Yes. This is a conversation I have had with many friends.

Police are misused, imo, by society to clean up macro issues, one person at a time, that police have no ability to control outside criminal investigation.

Police are where "the rubber meets the road" for policy failure and unrecognized socioculturally trends. They are easy to blame for up-the-pyramid authority while being the only easily visible aspect of a ineffective, corrupt gvt.
I realize it's lucky but I love WFH because I can just work from our basement in the summer, very little AC/electricity required (we set our thermostat to 78 during the day). It's a pretty solid 65 degrees down here. We also have large egress windows so I still get lots of natural light by my desk.
You might be right. But this isn't about who has control. It's about making sure drone operators know where their wild-west airspace ends and the FAAs begins. How many people have purchased a drone and decided to see how high they could go without even knowing there are rules about that? The point isn't to track you or regulate you, it's to make sure you've at least read the rules even if you have no intention of flying beyond your back yard.
Defund literally means, "prevent from continuing to receive funds." So, when people hear "defund the police" they rightly take that to mean "stop funding the police".

I don't know what community you refer to, since many people who I've seen call for defunding of the police want the police abolished.
Nah, I’m currently in Florida (albeit a different part) and I’ll probably be leaving in a few years.

The job market feels extremely disappointing for the size of the state, economically and population wise.

Miami in general feels like a city way past it’s cultural prime. Sure one or two companies may be talking about going out there, but every time I try to do some searching, I’d be better off going to some other state. Within the south, Raleigh is probably a much better options and I’d even go back to Atlanta before Miami.

Residential schools in particular and the treatment of First Nations is our nation's original and ongoing sin and we badly need to have a collective reckoning on what went on and how to move forward. The Truth and Reconciliation commission was a good start, but it needs to be backed with action.

China's call for an international review is a craven political action designed to embarrass us on the international stage, but frankly we should be embarrassed (and a lot more). I would support using something like the International Criminal Court or the UN Commission on Human Rights to help produce findings on what went on and what can be done to start to heal. We could set an example for the world on how to reconcile on these issues and find a path forward.
