Cool idea, but finding product/market fit might be hard. I've never experienced a situation where collaboration in the terminal would be useful, and if I want to share sequences of commands with other users, a recorded zoom video with commentary is usually more useful.

However, if you work closely with larger companies, I'm sure there's some killer feature that will hook the engineering managers, even if developers are split on using it.
Is that easier than just switching user account? Essentially all we're talking about is having a separate environment. Maybe desktop environments could support multiple environments per user more easily, but it's not too bad to set it up with a separate user account.
So generally what has been happening is there's a fine that's meager by Google's standards, but also a demand for a change in behavior. If compliance isn't met, the government will start fining them daily. I believe the announcement France made yesterday came with a large single fine, a window for compliance, and then a daily fine of nearly a million Euros per day if they don't comply in time.

The goal is to incentivize change, not extract financial benefit for the country. So your first penalty isn't huge in itself, but it's designed to make it clear that noncompliance in the long run will be less profitable.
To prevent context collapse. Some people are unable to understand what I say and take offence. That could be because of the way I'm saying it or because of them. Either way, I don't care. I would like to expend energy on my audience. Ideally, I can talk to my audience and to no one else.
I'm sure it's awesome, but watching their marketing video it's not obvious that it's worth $15k.
The process is straightforward to become an Olympian too, you still don't see people doing it every day. You can run every damn day if you want, but I'll bet dollars it would still be difficult to run a sub 3:00 marathon for most people.

Working at FAANG is easily regarded as one of the higher end jobs in the SWE world (from comp and prestige) and does generally require you to be in the top % of people who know how to code. That much is fairly indisputable so unachievable is a good way to put it for most folks (even if they are into programming already)
The usual way to address this is to have wars. Destroy lots of stuff and now you can make big loans for the rebuilding. This is why the economy boomed for a while after WWII.
Yes, I have considered that. I know many people who rightly rejected their own family. It is sad and very tragic and scary.

However, I also know a lot of people raised like I was who have left as well, and see no problem with it. They had perfectly fine childhoods, but treat their parents like trash.
Ok, we've taken documentation out of the title above.
It was the wrong lesson because the focus was entirely on who made the most money. And because it was funny money, the losers didn't actually suffer any real consequences other than the psychological pain of not being the winner. It flattened the risk-reward curve to the point where there was no real difference between losing 90% and simply coming in second. IMHO that is the wrong lesson (though I also note in passing that it is a philosophy that many Americans seem to subscribe to).
Let us imagine a scenario where Mastercard holds EU or US citizens data in China or Russia and refuses to move it to EU/US.

If it is a bit hard to digest, perhaps one needs to extend the same respect to India's sovereignty.

I don't understand these units. It says the display is "7680px x 4320px". Shouldn't there be a third dimension? Or is it displaying 2D images with a depth indicator (i.e. no pixel can be directly in front of another pixel)?

> In kind of a macro sense I appreciate my parents raising me, but I do not consider continued contact with them obligatory in any way, shape, or form, and certainly not at the level that my parents in particular want that relationship.

This is what I can't understand. I get not wanting a relationship if your parents were abusive. But if you 'appreciate your parents raising [you]', then clearly you think your childhood was 'good enough', so don't you think you owe them something? Anything? MY childhood was hardly perfect. My mother and father are both incredibly flawed individuals who still get on my nerves, to the point of tears many times. But... they're my parents. I mean, I've made them cry before, and I know I have all kinds of negative personality traits. I can't imagine them just leaving me like that. Sounds terrible
It's free just like win 10. You can even encrypt your data (they have the key). Be sure to read the EULA before you use it.

> In particular, our research indicates that users often associate this icon with a site being trustworthy, when in fact it's only the connection that's secure.

I had the idea that browsers were showing a grayed-down padlock for standard HTTPS certificates (ie, "connection is encrypted") vs a full-blown green icon with the company name next to it for the HTTPS certificates that also validate identity (DV? EV? I don't recall the meanings and acronyms).

I guess that's where we should go now: make HTTPs the default (thus showing a standard icon that doesn't call for any attention), a big red ugly icon alerting non-encrypted connections, and a green one with identity attached meaning you can indeed trust this particular site to really be your bank.
I think this very much depends on the circumstances. Few working-age men walk in my neighborhood, and some people seem a little uneasy seeing me walking. They don't know what to make of me.

On the other hand, if I walk a dog it is clear what I'm doing, and people are quick to share a smile. It seems like many people are uncomfortable unless your activity fits into a pattern they're familiar and comfortable with.
I'm not sure I like the notion of a private entity being forced to host content they don't want to host.

If it only applied to effective monopolies like YouTube, I would be more inclined to agree with it, but the article doesn't seem to know anything about that.
I don't understand this, is controlling youtube's database that google hosts equivalent to controlling the "world"?

If your manager is telling you that your performance is lacking and that you need to improve in specific areas, how is that really any different from being told you are on a PIP, and the rest of that? That is, what would you, as an employee, do differently if you were told specifically that you had been placed on a formal PIP, rather than just being told how you needed to improve?

> The German court held that YouTube failed to make its enforcement authority clear in its contract with the account operator who posted the video.

Does YouTube's TOS really not contain statements giving them the ability to stop hosting any video, at any time, for any reason?

Edit: I guess not: the only content removal clause I see is this one, which is definitely not "we can remove your video for any reason, as long as we feel like it." I'm a little surprised they don't seem to have included anything like that.

> If we reasonably believe that any Content is in breach of this Agreement or may cause harm to YouTube, our users, or third parties, we may remove or take down that Content in our discretion. (from https://www.youtube.com/static?template=terms)
I suspect it's leaning more to the right for older generations.
Every terminal I've used for the past 30 years has been blazingly fast beyond diminishing returns. You could stick random usleep() calls in there for small values, and I wouldn't notice.

Is Twitter actually used outside the US?

Here in Romania, where we rputinely import most aspects of US culture, it's almost entirely outside popular consciousness. Politicians and stars are certainly not using it - they're on Facebook and Instagram, and YT or Spotify for music.

How is it in the rest of the world?
> It's an hour long, but I watched a few snippets - is the "problem" only if you try to print megabytes of text on the terminal?

That's pretty much where most of the terminal performance difference is on most platforms. Latency can be an issue on some, but really this was a mostly solved problem as far back as the Amiga.

I have a toy terminal written in Ruby + a tiny C extension to interface to raw xlib that currently draws individual characters and redraws the entire screen on scrolling, and even that is fast enough for most normal usage (but indeed slow at printing megabytes of text)

But getting a terminal fast enough, including on the "print megabytes of text" test boils down to a few simple principles (and you'll be "fast enough" without doing all of them even on pretty slow hardware):

* Render your text to a buffer, and only render to screen at intervals.

* Use non-blocking IO and read as much as you can into suitably sized buffers (aka: reduce pointless context switches)

* Scroll the bitmaps using whatever OS/toolkit provided functionality, rather than re-rendering the text like my stupid Ruby term.

* If you have multiple lines in your buffer, scroll once and render all of the new lines at once.

* If vector fonts, prefer to pre-render glyphs to a buffer rather than re-rendering every time.

That's about what I remember from rewriting parts of the AROS (AmigaOS replacement) terminal handling code a decade ago (does not do all of the above, but is still more than fast enough).
Naval Ravikant seems to be a divisive figure here but I think he made a profound point when he discussed this topic on Joe Rogan's podcast.

The point was that, as a platform, you cross a line which is very difficult to ever revert when you optionally censor your platform in response to political pressure because both sides are then forced from a game theory perspective to aggressively pursue censoring your platform in their favor lest the other does it first. The platform ends up being collateral damage in some political war they never cared about in the first place and they can never win because no matter who they bend too, it automatically enrages the other side.

This seems like where youtube and twitter and facebook are at now. They caved to censoring things that were reasonable, but now anyone can make them censor anything as long as they have some poltical power somewhere. It's not going to end well for them. Their only winning move was to stay neutral and do nothing but comply with legal requests.
This is just a few thoughts I came up with while reading this, they might not be completely accurate and are probably very sloppy but here goes...

In the grand scheme of things these news are kind of interesting to read. I see multiple ways to characterise these events but it's a bit tough to because the only words I'm able to use kind of project a moral judgement onto the sides which I do not intend to make because history will have to be the judge of that. Needless to say, though, that I assume extreme selfishness from all sides as a given.

With that said, you could say that this a fight between:
- freedom and authoritarianism /banning things -or- giving people the freedom to trade by allowing foreign companies to pave the way/,
- globalism and nationalism /promoting the interests of the local government -vs- a foreign one/
- or simply a battle of political interests.

Probably a strange mix of all of the above, in reality.. I have a hard time figuring out who to root for, though, as these western multi-nationals can act pretty maliciously, too. And so do governments that turn authoritarian. I'd kinda prefer neither with the freedoms of all myself, but I am being unrealistic, sadly.
Show HN: VentureList – Google Sheets to help you run and grow your startup
I feel like HN should have a special flag called "survivorship bias" that we can use to tag posts like this. For every project like this one, there are 1000 others where someone spent 15 hrs/week for 5 years, built something really cool, but never got any funding or traction.

Now, that time was probably better spent on a cool project than on playing video games or watching TV. But you shouldn't think that consistent engineering effort alone will have any payoff bigger than personal intellectual satisfaction.
> The vast majority of the world will be better off with a twitter/fb etc cut down to size, and the current massive power of social media networks being reduced.

That's exactly what state sponsored media, dictatorships and big media conglomerates want to promote. Having layman question if social media is really good or not is great for these people.

I watched a mess of climatologists warn society on public TV about the consequences of climate change (global warming) and explain why it was a real issue to be acting upon, way back when (my late teenage years mebbe?) and apparently we've had some inkling of it bein' an issue decades longer'n that even… Truth is stranger'n fiction, I suppose.

I am more concerned with censorship than I am with these monopolies (or near monopolies) in question. Censorship is not reliant on having a monopolistic position and even disparate companies that don't compete can effectively come together and deplatform people. I know "begging the question" is a logical fallacy, but I can't help but ask the following: What happens when 'the market' decides your personal liberties are problematic?

"I'd also argue that a lot of people care about this "technicality". Businesses are not the government, end of story. The 1st amendment is quite succinct, and there's little room for misinterpreting it."

What is gained from focusing so intensely on this fact?

I feel frustrated because I believe that tyranny and infringements on the rights of man can come from both the public and private sector. I fully accept the 1st Amendment says "Congress shall pass no law...". But to me, the actual preservation of civil liberties depends on both domains. You can't have one without the other.
Just want to say I appreciate the discussion you two are having. Excellent points from the both of you. And it's nice to see a civilized discussion for once.
Crossed Eyes (Strabismus) – What's it like?
UK based, and I do both.

Most eggs are stored in the fridge, because it happens to have egg trays, although more recent models tend to omit those. Those folks I know without egg trays usually store boxes in the fridge.

The eggs I'm likely to use are stored outside the fridge, being moved from fridge to outside as and when the external supply reduces. These can stay they for a week or two.

I suspect we actually washed our eggs prior to joining the EEC, and hence how we 'traditionally' had egg trays in the fridges. Now that we've left the EU, I can't see any reason to change the current practice, so imagine the current don't need to refrigerate, and forbidding washing approach will continue.
I would love to see an RCT on a ton of really common environmental contaminants at different dosages in the human diet. Of course this would be incredibly unethical and inefficient with respect to human welfare, but it would, I think, finally get people to believe that there are obesegenic compounds (and viruses) that need to be avoided for proper metabolic health.

Phthalates, Adenovirus 36, bisphenols, certain pesticides and fungicides--which ones should we be investing in getting rid of?
What about people raised by single parents? What do they owe to the absentee parent?
Like I said, spend some time to investigate the space. There are lots of tools to ease the burden of running your own internal CA. For example: https://smallstep.com/certificates/ But really you probably want to use your OS' group machine management systems, like AD on Windows, to handle this with lots of machines.
The danger here is that there may well be no bounce, depending on how hard the fall is. We built modern society on cheap energy that was available from a low technology base. Having used a large chunk of that cheap energy up, there may not be enough accessible to rebuild.
True. It's definitely not enough to send people off their loops. But hopefully it's a step in the right direction. My prediction is that in the next 2 to 3 years more detail will emerge on the massive scam that is lockdowns. I don't expect people to go back and evaluate their behavior towards others who did not believe the media scam (from people being aggressive towards people deciding not to wear mask for example), but I hope that it'll be a step in the reversion of group-think.

Edit: People continuously downvote my negative comments about lockdowns. I leave you with this before you downvote:

That's an interesting interview. Too bad the editing of the video leaves a bit to be desired: it seems to cut out parts and skip in such a way that it's hard to tell what exactly the lawyer originally said, and how much the editing affects how you understand what was said.

The editing is probably benign in intention, but I would much rather hear a longer and perhaps more convoluted explanation than something cut-for-convenience where I'm not sure if I'm hearing and understanding the interviewee's answers the way he said them.
There are plenty of specific phrasing that can be applicable. "Feigning outrage." "Speaking in bad faith." "Muttering meaningless shibboleths." Virtue signaling itself has become a virtue signal, an empty jargon that denotes the user as a particular tribe.
You're being downvoted, presumably because of the idea that "if you don't say anything stupid, you'll be fine." And yet acceptably edgy jokes from 10 years ago can easily become dumpster fires of controversy today. There's simply no reason to engage in it unless you treat every social media post as something you would say to all future employers. Including private chats.

EDIT to add: I feel like we are have seen a shift in how social media is perceived by society. It used to be an extension of the internet forum days, where there was a reasonable expectation of anonymity and an employer scouring your online persona was considered a breach of trust. But now as more and more public discourse happens online, and places like Facebook enforce using real names, that veil of perceived anonymity (even if it was an illusion at the time) has completely fallen.
> I know right? What happened to the good old days when the big mainstream church organizations like the SBC were fighting the good fight against evils such as interracial marriage and civil rights?

You're just picking and choosing. In reality, religious organizations, like the Catholic church for example, were fighting the opposite fight. Perez v Sharp in California was orchestrated by the church: http://ccgaction.org/node/1011

Of course, if we encourage community involvement, there will be good organizations and bad ones. For example, we provide 501(c)3 status to both Planned Parenthood as well as a pro-life organization.
What's the law in question? If someone posts something that (in my opinion alone) is ridiculous as a comment on my blog and I remove it, would I have to pay a fine in Germany? Why is it okay for the government to compel speech?
