> that’s interesting, i’m still very curious especially in smaller markets, that if you raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour, why would a rental company for example, not raise the price of their apartments to take advantage of the increased income of the residents? There’s no law against it. They could make the argument that because of the increase in minimum wage, their costs have gone up, so they are raising everyone’s rent by 30%. So now your rent is instead of $900 its $1170. While your income went “up” so did costs, that’s leaving you back to where you started as if you never got an increase in minimum wage to begin with.

Because if they do that, you will move to an apartment that only raises the rent by 15%.

Accepting but regulating centralization of the Web

I think we failed to appreciate how much the average user would need centralized services (Search & Social) to use the Web. Both of these services are around discoverability of content. Humans want a water cooler to visit and chit-chat, or an organized library to look for information.

Additionally, because accessing the Web was seen at first as "free" (outside your ISP), people would gravitate towards "free" centralized services like Facebook and Google.

This created a recipe for what we see today with the incredible power of these companies over so many aspects of our lives.

So what would I think should be different? I would have been more thoughtful about regulating these centralized services in the way the FCC regulates the airwaves & media companies. Which is even more proactive than antitrust law. It's OK that they're profitable. That's good! But we ought to avoid single companies owning the entire search / social space.

Well, no, it's more like asking why you'd use data structure X instead of Y.

I was asking why you'd want that property as part of your data structure, and pointing out that (AFAIR) I've never needed it.

For your use case, I guess you wanted to be able to retrieve the data for specific time stamps? Otherwise I'd think you'd just put it into an array.

Well I'm sad that I missed this conversation, but I'm thankful for all the people here who actually gave some very nuanced looks at the topic. This should give me a great start to understanding how to approach the topic on HN in the future. As for the article, I think it's interesting but doesn't go far enough, getting wrapped up in the meta too much for my tastes, but I understand why that approach is the one Snowden wanted to take.
As do it does to me. The ambition here is low but I do not know how to fix it without destroying what makes it nice here. I do not think anyone does. And playing the odds is just much easier here.

Not naive at all, distraction is definitely a recommended form of dealing with a lot of types of pain flare-ups. Our experiences are geared towards relaxation, but because our VR worlds are quite immersive, most of our members and study participants report they don't "think about [their] pain" during the session because they're focused on the experience and distracted from their flare-up. We also have some worlds that are more gamified such that you're actually playing a game in VR with a higher distraction element. Relaxation and distraction are not necessarily interchangeable but in VR they can often work together.
I wasn't responding directly to the article, I was responding to the person who commented "This will likely turn out to be deadliest building collapse America has seen." They were making the point about just how catastrophic (and therefore worth of press coverage) the collapse was by by comparing it, in terms of lives lost, with other structural collapses.

Obviously the WTC has nothing to do with the problem of concrete deterioration, but neither did any of the other big collapses that Surfside is likely to surpass (Pemberton Mill, Knickerbocker Theater, Hyatt Regency, etc). They all had very different causes and different lessons to teach.
Yeah I assume that was a very meta troll ha

When the file system doesn't normalize names, then wouldn't the problem be worse? That is, wouldn't different tools be built with different normalizations (or none at all)?

Because that's my experience from Unix-based systems where some programs generate Latin-1 filenames and others UTF-8 names. And that doesn't even touch normalizations.

What would your tool-not-policy approach be?

This is likely the most accurate take. Psychologically humans tend to categorize the median with the extreme outliers. That’s why we eat these kind of articles up, when instead we should be talking about how to start a successful business without coming from a rich family.

If you want analogies, it’s the ISP provides a VW (connection speed), but it’s towing a Tesla Model S (which is way quicker than a Ferrari btw).

Then someone comments about how the ISP is mixing and muddying the two, and some replies start going into all the technical details of how the Tesla is quick and why. Technically correct, but clueless because it’s the VW that is the problem.
There are other advantages. I occasionally find myself using syntax-quote for refactoring. Let’s say I have a test like this:

(let [cases [{:in [1 2 3] :out [2 4 6]}
;; ...
]]
(doseq [{:keys [in out]} cases]
(is (= out (test-fn in)))))

If I want to inline the test cases, I can rewrite it like this

(let [cases [{:in [1 2 3] :out [2 4 6]}
;; ...
]]
(map (fn [{:keys [in out]}]
`(is (= ~out (test-fn ~in))))
cases))

Then eval that in the repl and copy the result back into the test file. It’s a bit clunky because the repl output uses fully qualified symbols, but cleaning that up is usually faster that manually typing out the code it generates.
It is just the tiniest bit weird that McBroom is simultaneously pointing out the absence of election fraud, and making it clear that it was a deliberate lie to think that there was any to begin with, while simultaneously toeing the party line on measures that are nominally about election fraud.

The answer, if course, is that they're not really about election fraud at all, but about voter suppression. It's disappointing that he sees how much of this is coming from dishonest sources and then supporting another dishonest measure, but unfortunately not exactly surprising.
Pay isn’t everything. There is also sick leave, payed vacation time, parental leave, job safety and security, privacy guarantees etc.

USA software engineers are lacking in all of these. Many countries in Europe have those labor benefits as national law and unions are more about enforcing these rights, and protecting the workers from violation of them.
For many people this is relevant for chronic back pain originating from bad posture. Our clinical studies actually focus on chronic back pain. But of course, everyone's case is unique so I would say it's worth a try, but I'd love to hear your feedback.
It was never clear to me if Servo was delivering on its promises. Does it deliver significantly better performance than Gecko or Blink? Is the benefit from a cleaner architecture and easier developer experience? Despite that, I was very hopeful that Servo would come through and be all that and more. But then they started focusing on weird tangential stuff like VR rendering and it felt like it had been managed into irrelevance in that way Mozilla seems to do for so many projects (e.g. FirefoxOS). I was also sad when MS chose Chrome over FF. I probably care too much, but these tools are our interface to a lot of the world's information.
Why “but”?
I don't doubt that, it's also trivial for anyone to spin up their own local root mirror to resolve against, I'm just pointing out that maybe Verisign shouldn't be holding onto two.

AutoDevTech | Software Engineer | Full-time | Seattle/Remote

Come join the team as one of our first engineers building tools to help developers write better code. We’ve got a dataset of code and outcomes like review feedback and bugs and we’re using that to train ML models to predict what happens to code as developers build new features.

We’re looking for versatile developers interested in an early-stage startup experience building user experiences to assist devs across the development lifecycle (think code reviews, testing, fixing bugs). There are a lot of challenges presenting information like this in web apps and 3rd party integrations. We’re looking for someone to help define and solve those challenges.

The team consists of industry vets, led by an engineering and product head with multiple startup successes from founding to exit. We’re looking to grow a supportive, challenging, fast-paced culture focused on building some of the best technology and products in the industry.

I'll be interested to see how this compares to Malaria vaccine, R21, which was recently announced to be highly effective[0]. It seems like R21 is similarly effective and may not have the perception or scalability issues that a "live parasite" vaccine might have. That said, I'm just happy to hear that there's progress being made. Hopefully we can see the vaccine rolled out to the millions at risk ASAP.

If this JavaScript executes in browser, it's just a bug. If user types 'abc&d=e', it might not post this text. It's unlikely to be a security issue, because server must check all requests anyway, as user can send anything. If this JavaScript executes in a server (e.g. some kind of microservice call), it might be a security issue, indeed, as some people treat internal calls as trusted ones (although they probably should not).
