I downvoted. I did so because of this line:

> many things are honestly comparable to a third-world country.

I do not believe that to be an accurate assessment of the situation. It feels accurate, to some people, but it's a distorted view of reality.

Which lets you classify me as "no we don't want to admit any problem", and write me off. I'd encourage you not to do that, for two reasons.

First, I've been seeing a pattern here on HN rather frequently lately: Someone states fringe view X as being obviously correct, and states that everyone is willfully blind to not acknowledge it. This gets downvoted. The author then points to the downvotes as proof that people are willfully blind (and therefore that X is in fact correct). But this ignores that X can be downvoted because it is obviously incorrect, or just because the author is being a jerk. You cannot use downvotes to confirm anything other than the fact that you were downvoted.

Second, assuming that everyone who disagrees is a fool or acting in bad faith is how you trap yourself in a filter bubble. But the question remains: Are you actually right, or actually wrong? Trapping yourself in a filter bubble means that, if you're ever wrong, you'll never find out.

What's most ridiculous about this level of crypto trading volume on Robinhood is that you don't even own the crypto you trade there. You can't use your own wallet, you can't transfer it to your own wallet. Robinhood holds it; you're just gambling on their holdings.

The revolution turns on itself. Predictable.
Tumblr made this decision a long time ago.

I remember the surreal amount of brands who hounded myself and others to post, just getting someone to start a trial paid out $60, and then additional if they paid for the whole treatment. I never took part since I was/am against anything that focuses on eating disorders or anorexia, but there was a time when tumblr would ban your entire account within minutes of a post going up. Truly a hectic time as bans (not suspensions) were without warning sent out to dozens (multiple!) of the top accounts on Tumblr.

New York Mets | Engineering and Design roles within Baseball Operations | Citi Field, New York City | Onsite | Full Time
The NY Mets are looking to hire senior engineers and designers to help build systems and tools for Baseball Operations. There are many green field opportunities to build apps and app architecture from scratch with a large degree of autonomy. The current stack is Javascript and PHP, however we are looking to get on a completely JS stack in the coming months (React, Node) and move many services into Google Cloud. The team is a couple of engineers strong right now and looking to grow quickly. These roles report directly to the department head. We’re looking for technologists with broad, diverse backgrounds to help build the best technology team in the Major League. No prior baseball experience required.

It's never been clear to me what "web standards" actually cause all these difficulties in the first place. A lot of the foundational stuff hasn't actually changed all that much.

As an experiment, I downloaded Opera 12.16 from 2013 (the last Presto-based version), and it works better than you'd might expect. The biggest issue is that lots of https requests fail because it only supports outdated versions (it does support TLS 1.1 and 1.2 in the settings, disabled by default, but enabling that doesn't seem to have much effect).

There are a few things that don't render correct: cnn.com because of incomplete flexbox support, as well as some stuff their CSS minimizer does that Opera doesn't seem to like. GitHub doesn't really work correct mostly because CSS variables aren't recognized (it does render mostly okay, just without colours and such), and the JS doesn't work as Opera doesn't support const.

I couldn't test stuff like gmail, fastmail, slack, etc. due to the TLS issues, and various other sites I tested all run in to JS problems because of const, arrow functions, and similar small issues. It's certainly not usable, but overall, it's not bad for an 8 year old browser with a long-dead rendering engine.

Maybe I'll run a proxy to fix the TLS issues and filter out some of the basic JS issues and see what happens then.

I will say, it's slow. This is also an issue with fairly simple sites, like HN, old.reddit.com, lobste.rs, etc. Not sure what's up with that, I think it's related to network requests, as it significantly speeds up when stuff's cached.

Clearly it needs significant work to be useful, but from the look of things I expect that actually, it would be an entirely doable project by a not-too-large dev team to bring Presto up to at least Safari-level in a reasonable amount of time.
I have no idea, but I've met someone who worked on mint @ intuit in person in the bay years ago.
You are right that it's not a startup, but a ~200 person company is far from Google or Apple and you can't really compare them. Change.org is about social justice as I would say their major goal is not profits so the pay will be lower than a publicly traded company.
I personally think that we need to combine significant whistleblowers with witness protection. They need the same protections and compensation to give up their current life. This is why people don't come forward know. Someone is likely married to the child traffickers and corporate fraudsters off the world but you have to convince them to give up their life and be in a media circus and potentially risk the lives of them and their family. You have to reward them as such.
I know what it means. I'm an engineer though and a practical person so I -will- choose to repair something myself where practical, that wasn't the point I was trying to make.

Unfortunately, although the parts to repair the washing machine are inexpensive, the design means a sizeable labor effort (and thus cost) to get at the problem part, so repairing it isn't practical, even for a repair shop, because it's hours of work.

The fact that several of my neighbors had the same machine fail at the same time suggest it's designed to fail early.

Between that and being designed to make a simple bearing change several hours of work, is was designed to be thrown away, not repaired, by anyone.

This is a very sensible move. It has been scientifically proven that weight loss is impossible for any extended period of time.

Edit: This is satire. Anecdotally it is very difficult to lose weight for a number of reasons.

I understand that many give Robinhood crap because it is not "sophisticated enough" or because of the Gamestop fiasco. Although many startups like to claim that they are "democratizing [x]", I honestly believe they did it. I have many friends that never traded before, and after they got their Robinhood account they feel comfortable enough to do it often. Even myself, who used to only trade a couple of times a year, started with $300 in my Robinhood account a few years back. Now I have at least ~60k that I rotate around in my Robinhood account on a daily/weekly basis. Yes there are other services that I now use or other apps that seems better, but for all intents and purposes, Robinhood did "democratize" trading for me.

I had a motor issue with my dishwasher. With the help of a Youtube video, I was able to disassemble the full machine, identify the issue, and put it all back together. I don't know what going rate's are for fixing dishwashers, but I am guessing at a minimum I saved $200 bucks.
I find it interesting that Elon Musk has tweeted about Dogecoin several times in the past day, and his tweets no longer seem to be causing price spikes.

A lot of Cryptocurrency twitter is mad at him for his actions and statements on Bitcoin, I wonder if that has broken his ability to manipulate price with tweets.

If that's the case, probably a bad thing for Robinhood. But maybe people will come back around to him with time.
Exellent. With the exception of the last few seconds. Somewhere on some body in space, with a furred hoodie? Pelt? Fur? REALLY?

I've seen this before, and couldn't get over it then.
The name and logo of Weboob were specifically chosen to be a provocative pair of boobs. There were attempts to sexualize and feminize all kinds of things through "boobs" throughout the project. You could find comments about "faggots" and "niggers" in the code. All in all it was not a very friendly community in my standards. If you wanna know more about the recent revelations/scandals, you can look up Pankkake's suicide notes and the big Bitcoin donations he made to the US alt right and neo-nazi networks (he's from France).

Sorry but english is not my native language. What does that mean?
I think the opposite - UI of Robinhood is awful. For example, to see a list of orders you’ve placed, you gotta interact with a fake chat box and it takes at least 15 seconds to see the last order.

Call me old school. TD Ameritrade and Charles Schwab has the best UI IMO.
I'm skeptical that this claim is true. Even a cursory look at news articles related to Robin Hood shows that these concerns are way more than boilerplate legalese.

> Ads promoting healthy lifestyles, habits or fitness services and products are still allowed on the platform if they do not "focus on weight loss." The company said it had developed the policy with guidance from the National Eating Disorders Association.

I think it's really easy to lose sight of just how many ads go beyond health and sell an idealized image in order to make money off of people's insecurities. Would you agree that there are probably at least a few ads that do that instead of promoting healthy practices?
The illegal shit they do is just a "cost of doing business" for them. It is just hard to calculate how much of a kickback the FINRA and SEC would like to have.

I used some Blender back in the day, over 10 years ago. At the time, I didn't find it too hard to learn and use, but I don't know how much it changed since. Of course it takes time, but I'm not sure if it's harder than similar 3D modelling tools? I also tried some 3D max and Lightroom in those days and they weren't exactly easy to use either. I mean, these are tools aimed at 3D artists (professional or amateur) and very much expert tools never designed to be used by "the average Joe".

The way the Bernays method works is to use several different advertising systems from different sources to help guide you to a conclusion.

Lets say I want you to buy my product XYZ. Run an advert campaign talking about some issue, that XYZ just happens to solve. But do not mention XYZ at all. Now that may seem counter intuitive. But it is priming you. Now I make sure I have that splattered everywhere. Get different groups arguing about it? Even better. I now get my product into the hands of someone who is considered an authority (4 out of 5 doctors agree) or popular in some way. Get them to talk it up. By itself that is meaningless. However now my 3rd set of ADs can combine the two. Our brains will not connect the two but the 3rd ad puts it together for us. XYZ fixes 'problem'. We are primed to see the connection and conclusion for us.

FB and google have their cohort groups. They can help build all 3 parts of that campaign for you. Making sure you target the correct set of people at each stage and not waste advertising dollars. This is especially important in the first two parts. The third part if you do it right will bleed over into others as the final targeted group will talk it up for you.
What? Once you're overweight, you will be overweight forever? Surely we can have more hope than that! My father has lost a lot of weight and kept it off for years, it gives me hope that I can live a more healthy lifestyle.
I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic or serious. Could you please explain what you mean? Studies have shown that temporary diets (as opposed to lifestyle changes) rarely lead to long-lasting weight loss, but that's a far cry from "it has been scientifically proven that weight loss is impossible".
This is a little weird. Excess weight is one of the leading causes of premature death and disability in America, and will probably cost me some years myself.

You would think that somewhere in the market there is a price point that means you get more powerful hardware in the TV. It really seems like the TVs at the entry level have the exact same hardware as TVs that cost 5 times as much or more. Surely that markup should afford hardware that is slightly faster and still produce a profit margin. If people are willing to pay 5x more for a panel their eyes can barely percieve the differences in, surely they'd be happier with a smoother UX experience compared to a competitors offering.
