I am Alecia Maldonado used every single spell worker on the internet, spent untold amounts of money and discovered they are all fakes...i was the fool though; doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. In the end, I decided that I wanted a tarot reading to know what my future held for me; I contacted a woman who lives locally to me and she told me about a man named (Dr Mandaker); he just got he just got his website (holyaraminta.com), has another job for income, has no set prices, makes no false promises and refuses to help anyone that cannot be helped and even helps
for free sometimes, he will give you proof before taking money. He is a wonderful man and he was the only person who actually gave me real results. I really hope he doesn't mind me advertising his contact on the internet but I'm sure any help/ extra work will benefit him.contact him as witchhealing@outlook.com He travel sometimes.i cant give out his number cos he told me he don’t want to be disturbed by many people across the world..he said his email is okay and he’ will replied to any emails asap,love marriage,finance, job promotion ,lottery Voodoo,poker voodoo,golf Voodoo,Law & Court case Spells,money voodoo,weigh loss voodoo,any sicknesses voodoo,Trouble in marriage,HIV AIDS,Barrenness(need a child),goodLuck voodoo,it's all he does Hope this helps everyone that is in a desperate situation as I once was; I know how it feels to hold onto something and never have a chance to move on because of the false promises and then to feel trapped in wanting something

Yeah, but the niche articles are usually the most interesting. Just look at all the AI/ML/Quantum posts on HN, not to mention the posts that deal with some unusual bug. It's a very low chance that most people will deal with these, yet people still read them for the information.

Agree with you that if you've worked in software for long enough a breach of some kind is an inevitability and that's really important for every dev to understand.

I still meet so many who are laboring under the impression that it won't happen to them - it's just not the case so we all have to have a privacy and security first mindset.

The sad part is that governments did step in and mandated that anything with a radio MUST follow a bunch of rules (certification) and MUST implement measures to ensure that the device cannot reasonably be made to operate outside of those rules.

The end result is that while difficult, you can make something like a pinephone where everything is open source EXCEPT for the radio modules and their firmware.
Maybe it’s just me, but I find the concept of hiding behind my profile picture while I speak to potentially hundreds of people in my pajamas to be not nearly as frightening as uploading a video of myself for hordes of 12-year-olds to roast in the comments. There seems to be enough everyday people comfortable enough to do that on TikTok to make it work, though.

Clubhouse’s demise seems to come from entering such a mature space without much of a marketing budget, then. Not enough extroverts know about it to keep the app interesting 24/7 and not much incentive to keep returning to talk on it as well.

Embellishing stories has kind of a social function: to sugar-coat our vision of life. Reality is scary.

When the author presents a blatant lie just because, it's only annoying. At least for me, that movie and the last one are a scam. Sure, there must be a "profound" explanation of director's intentions.
You can solve this problem really simply by just getting monitors that are actually large enough to use all the pixels and don't use scaling

What's the point of 4K if you don't use all the pixels?

A relative worked at Amazon’s warehouse, he described it as slightly above average pay for the area with above average benefits. However, the job really sucks, injuries are common, and turnover is high at least in VA. There is a huge range of warehouse jobs including many with a lot of paid downtime, the easier the job the less they can pay.
Fiction (/well-written fiction at least) is an artform, like music or, um, art, or even design you know? It’s a communication medium meant (amongst other things) to convey something of the human experience that is perhaps intangible or illogical. Fiction is normally very honest and open about not being factual. I take your point though that when people take fictions as truth, whether through the reader’s ignorance, or the writer’s misrepresentation, that can be extremely problematic - that is not the fault of fiction I would argue though, but rather of the context/audience that receives it/the manner in which they interpret it (I suppose there are exceptions like parodies/eg. ‘War Of The Worlds’ or something?). I currently read much less fiction than I used to when I was a kid (my mum was an English teacher), but I can assure you that my brain is almost always perfectly capable of distinguishing between the two on some level. I may choose to suspend my disbelief or feel feelings prompted by the material, but am simultaneously aware that this is not objective reality. I agree with your point though that much fiction/fictionalised material that has been interpreted as real has caused much damage - people really like stories (isn’t this an inherent part of our psychology?) and tend to inevitably construct them around even the most dispassionate material (in the same way we tend to anthropomorphise stuff I guess?). Trick is we need some training to help us ‘read’ media with a questioning/‘between the lines’ sort of rationale/focussed attention/looking for bias/manipulation/being self-aware etc etc…
>Incorrect. It is only "one" of the important dimensions, but to call it "the most" important one is at -at the very least- misguided and absurd.

It is the most important dimension and the only dimension most users care about. Fully correct.

>Your inability to use many of the user friendly distros available (like Mint or Elementary) cannot be generalized to the wider public.

Illogical statement and incorrect. I've used Mint and elementary and all the issues remain. But let's say you're right.

Then this would STILL be a usability issues. Too many choices... a user has to dig and choose the right distro to be "easy" to use.

You do the research. I'm more well informed than you.
Deeply familiar with it :) and the Humanure Book goes on at length about how to compost the shit and make very sure it is safe to use. The solids that come out of a methane digester must be composted to render them safe.
Agile is like a perfect example of a lot of things. Publishing a "manifesto" makes the revolution analogy on-the-nose.

Dissident manifestos tend to share a the same failure point. They're heavy on critique of the system that they want to overthrow, hand-wavy on the system that they want to enact.

The Communist Manifesto, to pick on the obvious example, is mostly about capitalism, other (wrong) versions of socialism.. notably reactionary socialism. It's also about the struggle to bring about revolution. There's surprisingly few paragraphs about what communism will do differently, once the revolution takes place. Liberal revolutionary manifestos was similar, with French and american revolutionaries settling (or not) on a system of government only after overthrowing monarchy.

The agile manifesto does outline a lot of how agile works, but the most compelling part was its description of "waterfall" and all its ills.

Liberalism and communism, in their idyllic literature, never really contended with the fact that these were alternative methods of "ruling over a population." Agile never contented with Agile was as a people management system. Well... Agile is a way of telling developers what to do. It is a people management system.

Where its completely unlike the political analogy is that agile was derived from working systems. It wasn't just an idealization. Ironically though, it ends up in the same place. What worked well for particular teams became the ideals.

I think the ultimate stinker though, was the "political economy" of agile. A company where everything works great isn't going to tear out their process and bring in consultants to implement a new management system. It's companies that are failing to produce software well that do this.
I have trouble understanding how Clubhouse was supposed to grow like other social media apps. It doesn't have the traditional social network growth. If I meet someone at university for example, we can add each other on Insta or Snap (these days also TikTok).

Clubhouse doesn't have that. It's closer to Twitch instead, but the difference is Twitch is primarily to broadcast the most popular entertainment media and it has video streaming, something that people want even for podcasts these days.

As far as I understand they have a shortage of everything, including livestock, so they end up using human feces as compost. This becomes a disease vector and you end up with ground water and vegetables contaminated with all sorts of parasites. This is specially critical for children because intestinal worms effectively hijack what little nutrients they can eat, creating even more malnourishment. [0]

Some criticism of Acoup's analysis of their combat performance. All of the defeats listed are either not infantry battles or ones where Sparta was heavily outnumbered. It's hardly surprising that they would lose battles over 500 v 1000, and no contemporary commentators claimed that man for man they were that much better than their peer poleis. If you did a "wins above replacement" analysis for pitched infantry battles, they would come out ahead, at least until the Battle of Tegyra (375), when Boeotians had figured out an effective infantry doctrine after years fighting Sparta.

Plutarch on the Theban victory over Sparta at Leuctra (371).

>For in all the great wars there had ever been against Greeks or barbarians, the Spartans were never before beaten by a smaller company than their own; nor, indeed, in a set battle, when their number was equal. Hence their courage was thought irresistible, and their high repute before the battle made a conquest already of enemies, who thought themselves no match for the men of Sparta even on equal terms.

That battle wiped out the Spartiate class for a generation, killing 400 out of 700. This opened the way for Thebes to liberate Messenia in 370, which was the majority of the Lakonian helots, and it was all downhill for Sparta after that.

That doesn't have much to do with my point.

There is no mathematical encoding of natural world semantics: the sense in which "Person" and "MostIntelligentSpecies" are different cannot be expressed mathematically.

(p in Person) obtains as does (p in MostIntelligentSpecies)

but Person cannot be eliminated for MostIntelligentSpecies

The article itself makes this point, but then tries to compromise with the mathematical reduction "to sets". It would be clearer just to state that this is a reduction rather than an elimination.
Then the question becomes "why are businesses models going bad" and "do we want a business environment with fewer jobs".
That's a 'phototropism' IIRC and it's not caused by electrical signals but instead by growth hormones called auxins. This is what little I recall from high school biology, anyways. IIRC the auxins inhibit cell division and different ones cause different tropism phenomena.
Ah, so they jus waiting until their patents expire ? Or maybe they waiting until some needed-by-them patent expire ?

Look: MS did not manufacture mouses until mouse patend got famous for making no money. And then it was global must to have. It was impossible to make singleton in C++ in 200x but atomics was described in literature (even in SICP) and only when patent expired Intel made it everyday tool...

Patents should be automatically invalidated before half human life time is wasted.

>I honestly think everyone around us is capable of so much more. Our current system, through Intellectual Property types such as copyrights and trade secrets, has made it hard to ascend 'intellectual ladders' because the intellectual ladders used by those in power have kicked them away (after they were used by them).

I think there are a few key requirements:

1. End-to-end encryption, like Signal. Without this, there's nothing to prevent the new platform from turning into another Facebook. (Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.) But with E2E, the platform can't analyze the posts that you write or read, so they can't build a creepy tracking profile for you like some East German secret policeman. And because modern E2E protocols also include integrity protection (eg HMAC), the platform also cannot inject new posts into your feed.

2. This one is going to be unpopular, at least at first. But users need to pay. Because the platform needs to work for the users. Not the advertisers. Not the government. Not anybody else. On the bright side, they wouldn't have to pay very much. Even Facebook makes only maybe $100 per user/year, and they spend a ton on "R&D", and they still make a healthy profit. Their cost of goods sold is a lot lower.

3. Ideally the service should be run by a public benefit corporation, with the public benefit for its users clearly defined in its charter. That way, the company doesn't get to maximize revenue at the expense of users.

4. Some sort of decentralization or federation would be good. So if users are unhappy with one provider, they can easily switch to another one. Like with email. Tired of Gmail? No problem, just switch to Fastmail or Microsoft or whatever.

I have a personal knowledge of what comes from suicides and suicide attempts. It is something that needs to be addressed.

I have issues with this article, as well as with the owner of the 'bulletin.com' domain. This article flips between discussing 'suicide attempts' and 'suicides' as if they are interchangeable, while only showing the data on 'suicide attempts'.

This bothers me.

"In fact, suicide attempts in adolescent girls dropped to rates similar to those seen in the summer of 2019. That’s not unexpected. Suicide death rates (for which we have decades of reliable data) among teens and young adults predictably fall during summer months, and also in December—that is, times when schools are the least in session." (emphasis mine)

'Suicide deaths' and 'suicide attempts' are not interchaneable.
> They go on for several years with several people, usually women, making the sacrifice and doing what needs to be done.

While I agree with most of what's said above, the proposition about "usually women, making the sacrifice" is dubious at best, if not untrue.

In any society or commune few will lead - the rest will be workers or followers. These will be both men and women, and they will both suffer from necessary sacrifices. Women are not a special class of people in those societies, and to claim that they suffer more prejudice is the usual sort of feminist-speak that has nothing to do with the reality of such communes.
I still think in the UK there was limited appetite for nonfiction accounts of racism of UK people. (There may still be limited appetite for effusively positive nonfiction about Travelers, or general nonfiction about the Troubles that may be taking “a side”.)

1) Just like absolute imports?

2) I absolutely contest that relative imports are easier for an IDE to refactor. I've never had VSCode hang while refactoring a Java package; I've had VSCode hang while refactoring "create-react-app" app...

> But no minority population that has become a majority in a liberal community has ever introduced the kind of blatant discriminatory practices used by whites to consolidate their power.

In how many countries* has this even happened? It's also notable how many qualifiers he uses to filter out non-white ethnocentric countries. Doing so allows him to pretend whites are the only ones that act ethnocentrically, given the opportunity.

The article makes frequent references to anti-Semitism. So let's see what the ADL's opinion is on this topic:

It is unrealistic and unacceptable to expect the State of Israel to voluntarily subvert its own sovereign existence and nationalist identity and become a vulnerable minority within what was once its own territory. - https://web.archive.org/web/20210519103412/https://www.adl.o...

*Using "country" instead of "community", because the latter could mean anything. Notably, it includes communities that don't have the sovereignty or power required to implement ethnocentric policies.

From what I’ve seen, men get stuck with the jobs women don’t want to do. Just look at our current society. Who are the miners, the garbage workers, the delivery people?

You’ll notice there’s a push to get women into comfy office jobs like programmer and not strenuous jobs like oil rig worker.

Someone can reply to me and cherry pick to show counter examples but for the most part it’s men doing these jobs.

Who is acting like that? The main criticism I have seen about EU funding is that it only gets allocated to the "easy" projects like renovating a park or some information board. Not that such things would never exist.

However even that is not true as the UK is finding out, as we are now scrambling to fill the funding gap that EU programs gave to anything from universities to farmers. All this while our corrupt government hands £37 billion to their corrupt friends for COVID "track and trace".

The French are renowned for being over-protective of their language. But I've been surprised at how fragile Americans also seem to be about their version of English.

Several times, I've downloaded ebooks off the intarwebs, written by British authors, and found that they were the US published edition and had all the spellings and even vocabulary changed to American versions.

It's very disconcerting to read a British authored book set in London where people notice the 'colors' of things, step down off the 'curb' and open the 'hood' of their 'auto'.

I wonder why this is? I've never read a UK published edition of a book by an American author which didn't retain the US spelling and vocabulary. Why are Americans so fragile about this kind of thing?
