I did not intend for my reply to be interpreted as snarky. I'm sorry.

I tend to be needlessly pedantic and often do a poor job communicating in writing the non-verbal cues I'd couple with my reply in face-to-face conversation to signal that my intent for it is purely informational.
Phone numbers have become the new SSN tied to your physical identity. In most cases you have provide extremely detailed personal info to get a working phone number. There are probably still some ways crafty folks can get a working phone number without it being tied to your physical identity, but you must go way out of your way to do so.

Cancel culture will always exist. I learned that Hitler identified it as an essential method for success in establishing a political party (Rise and Fall of the Third Reich). He employed it extensively and discovered it through analyzing the success of the socialists--which he hated and was seeking to displace.

Whatever you call it, it is just highly obnoxious behavior that uses rethoric to defame the target. It works and people will use it until it doesn't.

Even though the origin of Sri Racha sauce is debated (even in Thailand), it was the recipe used by a small shop named "Sriraja Panich" that became known as the Sri Racha sauce in Thailand. The popularity of Sriraja Panich's recipe inspired other brands in Thailand to make a sauce with similar ingredients and taste. Only after then it became known as a type of a sauce.

Today, even though every sauce brand in Thailand has started producing a Sri Racha-type sauce, many Thais still only considered Sriraja Panich's sauce to be the authentic one.

The way it works is that they impose a default ban, and then you can apply for an exemption for your specific product category. Wine has an exemption, sauces and condiments do not. Why the EU would quickly make sure wine got an exemption and wasn't impacted in any way, and not do the same for hot sauces is a mystery for the ages.

That is probably a bug, not a feature. Once something as nebulous as an emotion is being punished, people will stay away from controversial topics just in case.
Heinz ketchup is on a whole different level; it's not just that it's the default ketchup (which it is), it's that:

1) When ketchup is called for, there isn't a substitute condiment that's kind of similar. Sriracha in general is a subset of hot sauces, but nobody thinks of a general case for ketchup--it's just ketchup. Maybe there are situations where no hot sauce but sriracha will do, but that's much rarer in the US (where Huy Fong dominates the market).

2) There are no Fancy Dijon Ketchups. The food snobs don't have an artisan brand they like better; Heinz is as good as it gets. It's Andy Warhol's old observation that the President drinks the same Coke that you do, only more so--there are way more niche colas than niche ketchups.
I'm not sure I see it that way but open to being wrong.

Velocity does not by necessity drop when new supply is added. Velocity is how quickly money changes hands in an economy - an increase in economic activity is an increase in velocity. GDP is calculated from supply and velocity, not the other way around, yeah? [1] Adding supply by decreasing interest rates can stimulate economic activity, increasing both the supply and velocity commensurately.

The economy slowed down, money stopped changing hands as people were locked inside, and the Fed lowered interest rates and allowed the supply to rise to incentivize economic activity.

The pandemic scared people into saving. The new money is in fact to your point invested, which has led to an increase in certain asset prices, but at a rate that far outpaces inflation (i.e. the same quantity of Apple shares will today buy you a lot more bread than a few years back). [2]

As for 2015, the supply was actually contracted in that the fed began unwinding its balance sheet. It was doing so at a good clip. As you can see here [3] the balance sheet dropped from 4.5T to 3.75T before the pandemic. However, to the extent inflation remained well controlled, it shouldn't be particularly critical to do so.

“Scores” is also used as a rhetorical device to mean “too many” (in fact, I doubt more than 10% of people can define “score” as 20). “Few”, meaning “more than a couple” often implies that there isnt enough of something to matter. Id say that -given that turf violence is a thing - even a couple (two), of competing drug dealers are too many in “tiny dead-end street”.

Human minds are not compilers, we’re capable of nuance. Being as pedantic as when you're programming is counter productive in human conversation.

Actually I did the same with My wife's Asus, I dd-ed the whole drive, gzipped it and ran Linux for a year. Then I restored it. It worked fine. I guess I won't run into problems as long as the drive is the same drive, or perhaps a bigger one.
I've tried three or four competing Sriracha sauces from Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, etc, and to my taste all are much less enjoyable than Huy Fong.

It remains a differentiated product based on its core feature, taste.
Even if it was I'd still want days and months to start at one and, you know, match everything else in existence that represents them.
It's just simply not Gnome at all. It's not even a fork. Most of the base apps are developed by the ElementaryOS team (with their own framework on top of Gtk) and they are really impressive.

So, listing differences with Gnome would be like comparing Gnome & KDE.

I've never heard this brought up before. What's the distinctions? The thing I've noticed and found lacking in modern OOP is that it tends to be class-based without metaclasses or metaprogramming.

> The lab leak theory is nonsense and a distraction.

I strongly agree. I am not sure why, but there seems to be a terrific bias towards any explanation that requires a conspiracy.

Every pandemic and epidemic since the dawn of history was caused by humans living and working in close proximity to animals. Here is a list of epidemics [1]. None of them were caused by a lab breach. There have been plenty of leaks from biolabs in the last 120 years [2], and some pretty nasty stuff has escaped. Nothing came of those breaches, no epidemics, no global pandemics. One stands out as the worst of the lot [3], a major release of weaponized anthrax, yet it still pales in comparison to the deaths and illnesses caused by SARS-CoV-2. If anything is learned by examining a list of lab breaches, it is that any particular person is far more likely to get struck by lightning a dozen times before they'd be infected or die from a contagion inadvertently released from a biolab.

Are the conspiracy theorists banking on the law of averages? "It's never happened before, so that must be what happened this time."

I tried to set up a web account with the IRS (the American tax bureau) the other day. My perfectly legitimate mobile number, which works with every other two-factor authentication, was not sufficient for the IRS. Apparently you have to have a number with a certain set of major cell phone service providers like ATT and Verizon, not a minor service provider. They also require half of a credit card number or some other financial identifier like a mortgage. I rather wonder if the cell phone service provider requirement has to do with adding more surveillance capabilities to the IRS' already impressive financial surveillance ability.
Technically yes; but:

1. It's still better than the current situation, where you're screwed regardless

2. Not even a large corporation is going to be willing to lose $1000 over and over again. The only time it's rational to put up the $1000 is if you're pretty sure you're going to win, or if you're pretty sure the other guy can't pay. I think the chances of any random person being unable to come up with $1000 are reasonably low. So most re-claims should generally be actually valid.

3. Theoretically one could imagine services like bond lenders starting up, which will look at your case and front you the $1000; and if you win you pay them a cut of the refund ($50? $100?). If my predection at the end of #2 turned out to be false, there should be a reasonable market for this sort of thing.

I certainly expect that there's a problem to solve here, but it's completely obvious how much this writer is trying to steer my opinion by the third paragraph. I can't treat this as journalism, it's just a constant stream of appeals to emotion and accusations.

Does anyone here pass through that area? How bad is it actually?
Eh. I'm not a JavaScript developer, just winging it I got 9/25. Seems like there are 3 broad categories of (my) confusion.
1. floating point. Floating point is tricky, and when I use it seriously I have to look up a lot of special cases. I often forget I can get Nan, and it'll infect everything it touches. This is common in just about any language.

2. One or two of those , questions got me. I don't _hate_ it, but there's a little frustration there. Mostly I just need to know the syntax. If I was writing javascript for money, I imagine it would bite me once or twice, then I'd just memorize the rule.

3 (the biggie) implicit conversion. Oof. seems like a lot of types can be converted to other types, and it's not obvious to me what the precedence hierarchy is. With C I have to look up the edge cases around signed/unsigned, but usually it's just use the next bigger one int -> long.
Java does the .toString for everything which has bitten me once or twice.
I really don't have a sense of javascript implicit conversion. Some of those seem really subtle.
Most are but they sometimes go to others. About a month or 2 ago, NASCAR went to COTA. Some of the pictures in the article are from that race.
I believe there will always be situations (though specific) where a shared-memory concurrency model is the most efficient and performant use of available resources. For this reason alone, shared-memory concurrency will always have a place. That said, I generally agree that the isolated parallel memory model is preferable for simplicity's sake.
Prosecutorial discretion is up to the DA, and he's quoted in an article linked to this one defending it. Maybe the residents believe prosecuting crimes would help.
My substantial objection, 4 day old account holder, is that this is poorly supported political propaganda that is part of a well funded spam machine to desperately try to take down a San Francisco district attorney who is not sufficiently subservient to the tech industry. Given how much spam has been posted about Boudin thus far, it should be considered “off topic” by HN guidelines:

“Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon.”
Emacs is a system that adheres to this theory, being a small C core that implements an elisp runtime, and then the rest of the built-in functionality (as well as the entire plugin ecosystem) implemented as easily-tweakable elisp on top of that - but has not turned into "a byzantine nightmare of configurable interfaces, support systems, and so on". It's quite the counterexample to this claim.
Now it is less efficient but when we needed a hedge against crop failure it was essential. One large beast can be kept alive by eating scrub and can subsist a large number of people.

#9 in particular. One would think that after a week or two of dealing with all the problems related to a username (having to be unique across all users, having to have a forgot username form, etc.), one would realize the value in a naturally unique and easy to understand value like an email address. But in spite of this, the use of usernames abound.

I'd never heard an origin story, either. The reason I'd heard of it, liked it, and buy it myself is because restaurants very conspicuously put it on their tables. If that wasn't coordinated marketing, then I guess it's luck. But was probably marketing. Even without a "sales team," someone had to be going to those restaurants and making deals with them.

Running native Linux for non-technical users ends up being a great move as long as the programs they want to run work on it. For example imagine a retired non-technical person who occasionally trades stocks. Even major trading platforms like Interactive Brokers have native Linux clients.

Non-technical users want a stable system that doesn't constantly change. Windows loves to hit you with popup notices or UI changes where if you take the "ok" route things about your system change, or you accidentally click a notification that comes up and suddenly your browser is changed or worse. They also don't want to turn on their machine and have to wait 30 minutes for an "important update". They just want to turn their machine on and have it be exactly how it was yesterday.

A non-technical person I know thought he was hacked and wanted to buy a new computer because a shortcut icon was moved from his desktop to his recycle bin and he thought someone wiped out his computer. Now in Microsoft's defense they didn't delete his shortcut, but that's the type of mindset non-technical folks have. The slightest change is a catastrophic event.
Citizens need to push back more if they want to keep any rights. UK citizens have a poor track record of this, gladly giving up most of their guns and having nothing to say about the absurd anti-knife campaign and fining people for nazi jokes, but they did start having some large-scale protests at the prospect of further lockdowns so maybe they're starting to grow some spine.
I wasn't clear, I'm not talking about "pizza pepperoni" literally, I am talking about pizza with some kind of salame or sausage on it. I know that pepperoni is not sausage in Italian, what I mean is that a pizza with some kind of sausage on it is not a total bastardization of an Italian concept, since it's quite a common topping throughout the country.

"The Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs proposed the IHRA definition of antisemitism, the one that includes some kinds of criticism of the Israeli government.[3]" - the definition is against equating zionism with fascism and/or apartheid, and against questioning legal status of existence of Israel. The definition is obviously meant to outlaw BDS, and to push diaspora Jews towards taking sides. Other than that no one objects to criticism of Israel, its government, its defense forces, and zionism.
I think it's also a fantastic illustration of how even the best designed systems need to be twisted and coerced in some rather gruesome ways once they make contact with the end-user.
