Perfect anarchy will require going beyond democracy. Once all individuals can internalize altruistic social values in a perfect manner, coercion should not be required. That is effectively the sentiment behind a lot of the '60s philosophy that Barlow is channeling here.

The question is whether this state is realistically achievable. I would argue that most people, like you, eventually grow disillusioned enough to believe this will never happen - and with that premise, the entire discourse inevitably crumbles.
Tip: Add "height" and "width" attributes even if the rendered size will be different because of CSS.

The CSS sizing will still take precedence but the height/width attributes let the browser know the aspect ratio without having to download the image so it can layout the page faster.
I had a Swiss colleague (he grew up in France/Switzerland, settled in US in his 30s) who firmly believed that being poor is a choice. His argument is that he worked hard for what he has (which he did) but he conveniently ignored that fact that he was born in a wealthy country and was given all the opportunities. No matter how much I explained to him, giving examples (like a kid born in poor, drug ridden neighborhood and raised by single mother with father in prison etc), he simply refused to acknowledge his geographic birth lottery. He simply wasn't able to see beyond his bubble.

Which made me think - do I understand, can I understand the issues faced by people who I have minimal/no contact, experience with? LGBTQ, physically challenged, mentally challenged, deeply religious etc? I don't know. I am terrified that I might say something stupid/offensive if I meet a transgender person, for example. Not because I am an arsehole, but because I simply do not comprehend what they are going through.

These echo chambers are only going to get worse and worse. I wish we all talked less and listened more
Yesterday I was in the village of Broadwell, just outside Stow on the Wold, UK.

I sat on a bench which had a plaque on it. It was a memorial to Malcolm Jeffries who died on his birthday in 1974 aged 20 years. His birth day and month was not mentioned.

I felt like this was an event, something notable and I wanted to know more about it. I searched the web but so far I haven't found anything.

I'm not really challenging you, I guess I'm just saying that a lot of "knowledge" hasn't made it to the web and likely never will.
If you're claiming that upvotes on replies count against the ranking of the parent comment - I didn't know that, thank you!

If you're claiming that replies can be "top comment" - I don't think that's true, but I've learned that HN has a lot of secret UI and features that are only unlocked at certain reputation levels, so maybe you're a higher-level Laser Lotus than I am.

If you are claiming that "comments with replies" are more likely to garner upvotes _because of_ those replies - I don't believe that's true. I can't remember ever having read a reply and then going back to upvote the parent.

If you're claiming that "comments with replies" are more likely to garner upvotes due to some shared underlying cause ("good comments get replies, good comments get upvotes") - while that's probably true, it doesn't affect my question of "why would you leave a comment that _just_ says 'upvoting for visibility'?", if that doesn't affect the underlying comment's ranking?

Older homes are usually well thought out in terms of natural cooling and heating. Being that many of these homes were built in an era where HVAC systems didn't exist, they can stay remarkably cool in the summer, and warm in the winter. They designed the homes to have proper airflow throughout the house (and underneath the house), and of course, shade from trees. So while their energy efficiency rating may be lower -- in how it can retain the heating or cooling put out by the HVAC, in practice, you don't use your AC or Heat as much as you would in a newer home (which for some reason new home builders seem hellbent on eliminating all trees, and placing the entire home in direct sunlight)

My house was built in 1927, and it stays ~75-78 even on a hot summer day, and due to the much thicker materials used, doesn't bottom out past 60 in the winter.

In short, Apple is a hardware company. It sells you electronic devices with some software and firmware required for these devices to function.

The software component in a Mac or an iPhone is larger than in a microwave oven. There is still equally zero incentive to port it to third-party devices, because it's the devices that bring in the revenue; software is a cost center.
I don’t know any definition of “wealth hoarding” nor what a “fair share” is that makes logical sense. It’s always some dollar amount where beneath it someone is a good citizen, and they make one more dollar and suddenly they are evil robber barons. Do you have a wealth amount that signifies someone is evil?

I don’t care about trickle down, I don’t care about rich people. Most of the huge problems in society - cost of housing, education, and healthcare, problems with the criminal justice system, problems with corporate welfare - are caused by the government themselves. The best parts of society that work like well-oiled machines are built and operate in the private sector.

It’s a philosophical difference of opinion - I like rich people and I’m happy that private entities have lots of resources and power. I don’t feel the need to steal from them out of envy.
dont forget to be happy...
Having two CSS rules in a single selector is something you absolutely can do in vim. You can even chuck it in a one line style tag. IMO cumulative layout shift should be ranked down, it's extremely frustrating.
ISVs would love it, you could sign up for multiple networks. It would be like paying for a gateway provider to reach an existing walled garden like China.
Sriracha isn't trademarked in any way. Anyone can make it and sell it in a similar bottle. Unless some restaurant specifically mentions Huy Fong or shows the rooster logo, the sriracha they are using is probably a generic version made from garlic and chilis.
Looks like people are focusing on the current timeframe and looking backward toward the recent past for clues.

When these were being built it was with quite an unexpected boom too.

To complete the other half of the equation you need to start with the construction financing before the condo project was built, and follow the money from there forward.

It was widely circulated that not every hi-rise was really being constructed the way it was supposed to be.

I guess it would be kind of similar to how during a software boom the engineering and grunt work are subject to more frequent pivots because of boom conditions, everything is rushed, and not everything is as robust as it could be before it ships. When anybody can, and is, leaving at any time to go to alternative employers against deadlines for any little reason you end up with some projects having all the good people and others having none. Plus money can run short and more capital may need to be injected on an emergency basis, introducing financial incentives that may not perfectly align with those in the original deal.

Only the top upscale projects were designed to best survive in the face of a direct hit from a monster hurricane.

None of the local construction workers at the time would have ever let their grandparents move to one of the ones designed to be affordable to owners on a fixed income.

If lots of fixed-income retirees buying these newly-built units had good financial advisors they probably wouldn't have wanted them to move there either.

Expenses always go up so these buyers needed to be sold to very persuasively, directing focus completely away from that type of math. Salespeople who could accomplish this against the raging inflation of the 1970's were like gold to the developers.
Most devs would love to focus on craftmanship and creating great things.

Most customers want their immediate problem solved as cheaply as possible.

Unless you're in a market where customer's pay for craftsmanship, you will get undersold.
A lot of this will be terrible in the long term for privacy. They're exploiting people's laziness to fleece them of their identity. It's vile.
> Also, I've once heard that Apple employees are discouraged from reading internet forums. That's probably why we never see them here.

Well, I would never let my employer dictate what I do in my spare time. I'm sure they're here!

They're probably forbidden to reveal themselves as Apple employees though. Apple is really strict on that stuff. They love their NDAs.

But I don't think it affects Apple directly discussing about it here, no. Agreed.
I just use systemd and pipewire, it's not a problem for me personally. They're the worst options... except for all the others :)
In my "software development" course at university (so, not programming, but every "management" thing around it: unit testing, git, waterfall/scrum, etc), I remember the instructor telling us that the first approach to making your program faster was upgrading the hardware.
The more time passes, the more shocked I am at an instructor telling this to his students, to the point that I'm now thinking I might recall a cruder version of what was originally said.
In any case, that may be the cause!
Back in the day computers that were basically electronic people that never made mistakes were "just around the corner". Now we're resurrecting those philosophical debates and literary tropes because ML processes can beat humans at Go and analysing protein folding.

Just because an algorithm is extremely useful to science in conjunction with the right dataset doesn't mean it isn't silly to pretend it's any more of a person than a microscope or a pocket calculator.
>For people worried about an influx of low quality PRs on their projects, you have the right to reject bad PRs

I certainly do, but I'm worried about the signal to noise ratio on PRs sinking through the floor. After all, it's not as if the difference between a good PR and a bad PR is magically known to me before I open it and read the patch. The maintainer has to spend a certain amount of time to see if the PR is any good, and if there are a hundred PRs more than usual, then the maintainer going to be much more likely to mass-reject all the PRs from a given institution, regardless of how good they are.

We've seen exactly this situation with Huawei and the Linux Kernel, where the kernel maintainers threatened to reject all patches from Huawei because it became apparent that engineers at Huawei were optimizing for the number of patches in the kernel, rather than quality of patches. In the same manner, if a university mandates that a student must have at least one patch to an open-source project in order to graduate, then there is a rather large population of students who will spray patches at every open source project available to them until one of them happens to accept their patch, intentionally or not.

Now, that said, I'm not opposed to the idea. Writing patches to an open-source application could be good as part of a larger project. Have the student pick out an open source project (it doesn't have to be big) and write up a report about the architecture used, the reasoning behind the design, and what issues they see. Then, as part of that process, have them write a patch against the project. This patch should be reviewed by the instructor, and should be graded on its own merits. Then the student should submit the patch to the project. At that point, while acceptance of the patch would certainly be nice, the professor should have enough data about the student's ability to evaluate an existing software project and make a meaningful contribution to it to grade the student even if the patch is not accepted by the time the semester ends.
Now I'm feeling like I should create Microsoft accounts using the names of prominent Microsofties.
I may be in a bit of a bubble then; I think I've only been to one restaurant that made their own ketchup (for their duck-fat fries, and they were definitely an outlier). I'm sure now that I'm looking out for them, I will now see high-end small-batch ketchups everywhere.

> most of the land that livestock use for grazing is unsuitable for conventional farming anyway

Ah, but are most cows in the world actually grazing on pasture unsuitable for arable farming? I wasn't able to find an estimate of that number, but am willing to bet good money it's pretty low, considering that the number one driver of tropical deforestation is converting land to raise cattle, and the number two driver is soybean production mostly to feed said cattle: https://www.worldwildlife.org/magazine/issues/summer-2018/ar...

> why aren't US citizens writing to their representatives about this?

Does that actually do anything?
The months-start-at-0 is a legacy of POSIX's datetime API, as is the year field being a count from 1900. Java continued these mistakes, and then added the everything-defaults-to-local-tz functionality (POSIX had different functions for UTC versus local tz), and JS copied Java's API in this respect without modification.

Java eventually torched its date/time API not once, but twice: the JDK 1.1 addition of Calendar that deprecated most of the naïve methods on Date, and JDK 8 adding java.time.*, which is roughly the modern model of date/time APIs.
I mean, some software can really get rid of bloatware without losing much functionality. For example: The AMD Adrenalin driver takes about 1GB of disk space and comes bundled with a browser. The control panel takes forever to start, even on a laptop with NVME SSD. This is why I have switched to installing drivers through Windows Settings.
> statements expressing sincerely held religious beliefs

I have an issue with this one. What is it about a religious belief that makes it any more important and protected than an atheistic belief? And how can "sincerely held" be defined? If I make a religion for the sole purpose of hating a group I would otherwise be prohibited from hating, is that OK? What if I indoctrinate somebody into that religion, can they say hate speech and be OK because they're sincerely holding that religious belief?
Yeah that’ll do it. I have it on a Thinkpad X1 yoga with just one physical drive
The article is also surprised that people are still using AMP now that it's no longer required, because in the author's mind, AMP is so god dang awful that when given the chance, everyone would immediately want to get rid of it.

Some people are so deeply lost in their hatred of AMP that they cannot even consider for a moment that maybe, just maybe, AMP actually does work well for some people.

I'm glad it's no longer required, and if people are correct that AMP truly sucks, then surely it'll slowly fade away over time.

Germany decommissioned its nuclear power early due to efforts of environmental activists. This isn’t some fantasy. It actually happened.

They aren’t solely at fault: the right blocked carbon taxes or any kind of solution they could. But greens had their eye on the wrong ball for sure.
One thing I observed as a data analyst (prev job) was that modularity could make data anlysis pretty difficult.

Example:
In a monolistic application you can easily send out telemetrics of different "components", e.g. player hitpoints, coins in inventory, days in game, etc. But in a microservice structure (at least the one I saw), since hitpoint service doesn't care about coins, and coins service doesn't care about days in game, to get all three in one telemetry, developers have to break the barrier and connect them in one way or another.

So essentially you still get to write them into sort of monolithtic, but uglier and needs more arguments (but still have to write them at the end because CXO needs the report).
I’m guessing they render the emoji somehow, capture the image, and hash it.
That's only half the story. It's "deprecated" because it's done. There's nothing more to add, fix or improve in the eyes of the maintainer. What a nice place to end up in:

_"We now generally consider Moment to be a legacy project in maintenance mode. It is not dead, but it is indeed done."_

6. What people tell you they want done and what they actually want done are often completely different.
I don't even think it is unintuitive. There are very few things here (if any) that make no sense, and a few are literally just basic understanding of floating point spec. And then of course a few questions are basically obfuscated-C levels of code, where you won't get the answer correct unless you get your pen and paper out.

I'd argue that if you don't know about type coercion in JS, you don't really know JS. It's a feature; none of these operators will throw; it's a conscious design choice.
> American condiments can stand to learn from global condiments

There's no such thing as American condiments, unless you pretend the US is homogeneous (which it isn't remotely close to being). Maybe you kinda sorta could have pigeonholed the US like that 40-50 years ago. I don't think it's possible to label-standardize as it pertains to food in the US any longer (as though there's American food at this point), given the diversity in the US now and the large variance between regions, states, cities.
I worked in this lab! Would be glad to answer questions.
Here are some of the definitions I've heard:

* OOP is about message passing (where message passing is NOT method invocations)

* OOP is about message passing (where message passing can be method invocations)

* OOP is about encapsulation (never mind that most/all paradigms make extensive, idiomatic use of encapsulation--some OOP proponents suggest encapsulation implies constructors that do lots of work, take ver few arguments, and make the class virtually untestable, others argue that this is an "abuse" of OOP or "bad programming")

* OOP is about inheritance

* OOP is a Kingdom-of-nouns programming style (effectively Joe Armstrong's "You wanted a banana but what you got was a gorilla holding the banana and the entire jungle" observation)

For all of these definitions, I've heard many OOP proponents argue that these things are not true OOP (typically without rebuke from other OOP proponents in the forum, bizarrely).

In my opinion, OOP must be defined by the things that distinguish it from other paradigms. Considering encapsulation and method calls are both fundamental to other paradigms, these cannot be defining characteristics of OOP. Additionally, any defining characteristic of OOP must be shared by languages that are virtually universally recognized as OOP, which means that message passing in a non-method-call sense must be excluded. That generally leaves inheritance, "extreme encapsulation" (untestable constructors), and kingdom-of-nouns programming styles.

I don't think the "class-based" thing is meaningful because apart from inheritance there's not much to distinguish a "class" from a struct in Go or Rust (in both cases you can associate methods to the struct for interface polymorphism) which are generally not considered to be "OOP languages" (and Go certainly doesn't have metaclasses or metaprogramming).

> Static typing is also something that not in Smalltalk, but that shouldn't change the network shape of objects.

I agree that static typing is not a defining characteristic of OOP, and I've never heard anyone argue that it is.
There's demand for offices, and tons of demand for residential too. The latter receives the most resistance and hence tends not to happen, however. As for where all those office workers will live - well, that's someone else's problem.
The scandal of the software industry is that there is no (actually used) open standard for 'chat'.

If we had an open standard you could pick a better client or pick a better server and competition would lead to the clients and servers getting better all the time.

As it is, "Facebook Messenger" and "AOL Messenger" are hard to tell apart except one is connected to Facebook and the other was connected to AOL.

The cycle is that any given chat service works when it is new, but then it rots and starts to fail, then something new comes along. Skype amazed people because it worked when the previous chat clients failed, and Zoom amazes people now because it worked when GoToMeeting didn't.

It astonishes me that people don't see this going on, but they just keep moving with the herd.

When I was looking at switching my phone system to VoIP two years ago I could find a large number of sketchy but low-price providers that (I suspect) were run by intelligence services out to tap phone calls.

Today most of those are gone but I can't find anything more affordable than Vonage, which at $25 a month costs as much as a carrier 'prepaid' phone plan (but doesn't make Vonage put up towers anywhere)

Proprietary-client services like Skype are still affordable though.

Go to a homey, family-owned Chinese restaurant when they are not busy. Some have a separate menu for more authentic cooking; you can ask about that and if not, just tell them you want to try authentic regional dishes. I have had good luck with this even in the midwest. Make sure to tell them how adventurous you are - will you eat feet, intestines, head-on fish etc.
I don’t know how you would do this, other than setting core affinity, but I’m surprised I can’t limit processing power or RAM per process on any modern OS.

Both for setting restrictions per another comment here, but also for testing purposes.

When will people start to use the correct language when talking about suicide.
The submitter even editorialised the title to include "Has Taken Their Own Life" when the original reads "Reportedly Passed Away".

Leave it to people to frame suicide as something one very actively does to oneself - like they themselves are the only one responsible. And then they wonder why such wordings act as triggers to other people.

At-least it's nice that they didn't include any graphic details.
