No: they get to choose which society to live in and which legal system gives them less trouble.

Everybody else has little choice.
Some used to write books using LaTeX a quarter of a century ago and it was pretty much a build system. You'd typically have a little shell script making backups, cleaning the mess from the last build, building the book in x passes (IIRC there was a first pass for the book and a second one for all the references), converting it to another format, maybe opening the result in a viewer, etc.

As for TFA: 640 pages in 15 months ain't bad. Some have a lot of discipline and can write five or ten pages a day, but that's really hard...

You are upper class. Yes you're not rich, but you're not middle class.

The middle class American dream is a house in the suburbs with a white picket fence, 2 cars, and a dog.

You're talking about buying a half million dollar house in Spain because of a moral concern about global geopolitics. You're not middle class.
Would it be more interesting if the oil was made easier for viewers to see?
That is why I put "working you less too" in there. Either paying you more or letting you do less has a cost to the company.

It's not only in the US. It's everywhere. And no, Covid-19 wasn't entirely at fault. This virus its just showing the cracks the entire western world's health system.
You forgot his "Best Selling" braggadocios book about how great he handled COVID-19, including his decision to send thousands of elderly to their deaths.

It's one thing to make a policy blunder and deal with the consequences... It's another thing entirely to cover it up, lie, and suppress just to cling to power.

Just reflect for a second... the media cooed at how great this man was and how he was going to be the next President. And now, he won't go down for killing thousands of elderly and the ensuing cover-up, no - he's going to go down (big maybe!) for being a sexual creep. What a world...
You are not wrong, but besides the upper-middle-class hobby people, there is also a 130 years old culture that exists parallel to it. I've met a few native Esperanto speakers, and for them Esperanto is their identity. Traditional Esperanto clubs exists in countries like Iran, Japan, China, Burundi, Nigeria and many more. So Esperanto is both, a nerdy hobby and an old culture.
Agreed. Which kind of makes it even more complicated to talk about. Whether its approach offers the best of both worlds, or the worst of both words, depends on your application, and the dividing line doesn't cleanly follow any of the distinctions we normally make among types of application.
More than that, I think it is important to have a certain level of understanding about how computers actually work if you're going to be programming them as a career, and boolean logic and bitwise operators are a very basic part of that.
There is a vaccination now. So to the degree that some locations were able to get through the pre-vaccine timeline, presumably (assuming people get vaccinated there) they'll end up with better--although not perfect--outcomes overall.
Nevertheless, the officer insisted that Spriestersbach was actually Castleberry and took him to jail. He was fingerprinted and had his photo taken, generating records that could have been used to prove he wasn’t Castleberry, the Innocence Project asserts.

It's beyond me how anyone has one iota of faith in the US judicial system anymore.

Actually regulations limit the number of beds hospitals can have. The theory is that this will cut health care costs to insurers and the government because they assume hospitals will find a way to admit patients until they are full.
Dumping Facebook and its products as I and others have done is one strong step forward but people can't even manage this. It's deeply disappointing. Techno bears its seeds in rebellion but everybody throwing techno parties is coordinating on what is essentially an Orwellian state. Punks too, they're cozied up to this framework of oppression and can't see it for what it is.

I think people have a hard time seeing the ethics in the technology they choose to use. Maybe the next wave of net-natives will be able to rediscover that common thread of rebellion and resist. It's insidious, I'll give you that. It's not obvious what is being surrendered with every participation on these platforms but it doesn't take a genius to see clearly.
It is not very convincing because likely nothing would convince you, the answer as given is pretty solid and if you are not convinced then maybe you have yet another answer to why people don't bother engaging with you if you keep spamming the same question over and over again.

Too bad they can’t focus on finishing deploying their network everywhere first. At this rate there will be mobile users tooling around the country before I receive my fixed service here. Not cool, Starlink.

I thought the point of this service was to deliver bandwith to rural customers that have no other options. Portable dishes will be scooped up by urban dwellers as a luxury and clog the limited airwaves, when I and millions of others are still stuck with speeds that have not been considered “broadband” for over a decade.
You don't have to be a US citizen to purchase property in the country. This is the same for many of the European, Central/South American and South East Asian countries. Is it as straightforward as being a citizen no, but it can usually be done without much extra effort.

Dear HN Readers,
We are excited to annouce our new windows desktop application which is a collection of utilities used frequently by designers and developers. The application is inspired by CyberChef (a well known web app) except that it works offline.

We had mini apps that we created over time for our own usage but recently decided to package them together in a Sleek windows app. We hope you might find the tool useful. Currently there are 23 tools and we are trying to add more from what we have.

Looking forward for your feedback
Regards,

Spouse worked at a hospital until last fall. As @originalvichy noted, there were years of old, unresolved issues bubbling under the surface. COVID just lay everything bare. She let them know exactly what the problems were for her and for the department at large.

They wouldn't budge on anything, and as last summer's surge was dwindling, were planning on returning to the status quo.

She walked.
Ahh, I see we have one with some critical thinking facilities left! Hurry up HN, downvote this guy!!!!

Sadly most don’t want to consider it and just parrot what they’ve been programmed to by the television. The worse part is they think they are righteous or whatever. So delusional.

I think it's notable that there is substantial resistance to vaccines even among health care workers. https://www.webmd.com/vaccines/covid-19-vaccine/news/2021062...
They only just changed the laws a month ago to make it so opaque and vague about who qualifies as a tax-resident or not. It's basically a "if we want we will tax you" situation. The 183 day rule means little if you have even something as innocuous as a bank account back home now. It's a ridiculously stricter change that is entirely open to interpretation by the ATO.

This is unbelievable.

Think of how many trans people with COVID can't get the vaccine when these selfish workers leave.

Hi, Paul here - head of engineering at Primer.io. There are a lot of "payments orchestration" companies floating around, but we think of ourselves as an automation platform for payments - Similar to Zapier in many ways.

I previously worked for Braintree/PayPal where I worked closely with Spotify, Uber, Ticketmaster and many of PayPal's marquee merchants on their payments integrations and payments strategies. We think about these things in terms of end-to-end payment flows.

You're outlining a scenario in which another PSP may give you better pricing at some point down the line. So typically, you'd rip out the Adyen integration and then go about integrating Stripe.. and you'd also need to request that Adyen migrate raw payment information over to Stripe, and hope they'd pass along all the respective network transaction information as well as any 3DS/SCA data that has been stored to ensure you don't see a drop in auth rates, or need to re-authenticate with 3DS or request CVV information on subsequent payments (lots of friction, lots of drop-off).

And that's just for cards. Apple Pay and other mobile wallets now enable vaulting, as well as other payment methods such as PayPal, Klarna, etc.

So you see that the issue here is bad separation of concerns for engineers. You should have custody of your payment method data, and be able to decide when and where to process payments (or indeed, pass payments data to other, independent downstream services). With Primer, we've decoupled every single area of traditional payments acceptance, enabling you to connect any number of payments, and non payments specific services using drag-and-drop workflows.

In your case, you'd simply change this route on your workflow from Adyen to Stripe, and voila.. everything just works - even the checkout! You may decide to get more detailed than that. Over time, you'll discover some PSPs perform better than others, that you can improve conversion or reduce risk by introducing third-party fraud providers, that you can optimise for cost and reduce cross-border fees with more refined routing and conditions... the list is endless!

In that sense, we've designed something akin to a developer framework for payments. A unified way of integrating and reasoning about payments completely decoupled from any specific providers. There are tons, and tons of security, infrastructure, and payments specific considerations that need to be made when building an agnostic platform such as this and would be happy to take any questions you may have about it.

Not to cause a fuss, but the reason for my posting this here is inai "borrowed" their concept from us after they signed up for a Primer account under their previous business, and set about ripping off every part of our product from the website to the job board! (All since updated... partially.) It is what it is :/

But Primer is built by payments folks and engineers who have experienced first-hand the complexities of payments as companies scale, and I'd be super happy to answer any questions you might have on solving more complex use-cases.
It's literally a copy of hello which makes it a ripoff.

It also has the exact same stated goals, regarding macOS.

So when the goal is the same my question is legit, why?

What will be different to hello?

Why not just contribute to hello?
I don't think you're trying to be satirical, which baffles me, since you go on to use adjectives that describe Trump to a T.

To be clear, I'm not defending Cuomo. What's going on now with the leaders of the democratic party is exhibit A in the case for the difference in how the two parties handle bad behavior by one of their own (e.g. the president calling on him to step down). Comments like yours are exhibit B -- a stunning lack of awareness at best; rank hypocrisy at worst.

The US had segregation until 1964. It's pretty much done non-stop military adventurism since it's inception. Yes, most countries are unethical and morally repulsive, but the US is at the very top of the heap and it has been for a long time.

All the people who hate the masks and hate the vaccines never really have any answer to this, what happens when the hospitals fill to capacity or the staff give up from exhaustion.

No answers.
From those links:

> Yeah, I think the most likely eventual "removal" path is actually non-blocking alert(). (confirm() and prompt() cannot be converted to non-blocking though, so they'd have to be fully removed)

Blocking Javascript execution is a fundamental part of the `alert` spec. Replacing it with a different, non-JS-blocking thing that happens to share the same name doesn't mean that `alert` wouldn't be removed as it exists today.

And there's just no way at all to make `prompt`/`confirm` non-blocking, they have to block the main JS thread in order to keep the same API.
What does it matter what the technology supports if it incentivizes the community to consolidate? Penalties for being offline and slashing (for misconfigured nodes) are a massive incentive for nodes to centralize
I honestly think focusing on mRNA is basically missing the forest for the trees.

It's like trying to describe how safe a substance in a shot is by describing the needle. mRNA is HOW you deliver the spike protein. But the safety of the vaccine is related to WHAT the mRNA creates. If it were a human protein, we would all develop auto-immune diseases of some sort.

mRNA vaccines are the cleanest, and in a round-about way, simplest delivery mechanisms, (simple in that there arent as many precursor steps as something like a viral vector vaccine and simple in that its not a full attenuated virus) but its what they deliver that the conversation should be about.
I assume some of those apps may not work with case sensitive file systems. Which I believe is supported by ZFS.
Oh god don't get me started. I cannot have a shared account with my wife because she is american. She can only be authorized. She cannot get her own credit card but has to be an authorized card holder on my account.

If I tried to actually but her as a shared account user the bank told me they will terminate the relationship.
This is very reductive and I assume means you've never worked somewhere with an actually decent culture. I understand your cynicism: there are indeed a lot of bullshitters out there. But there are some good places to work here and there, places where the bosses listen and respect the humanity and autonomy of the people around them. Frequently this occurs at a local level rather than across an entire company, but it does happen. (Note: I'm not saying it's an excuse to underpay people, I'm saying this can be an issue entirely independent of pay.)
> Did you know the hospital ship went home after being almost completely unused? Did you know it treated IN TOTAL 182 people? With a crew of 1200 and 1000 available beds?

That's probably because it wasn't sent originally to support COVID patients, and it wasn't until later that they opened up for COVID, and then left shortly after it had opened for COVID. Not sure about Javits.
Used to be while he was actually in China.

Apparently he had some trouble with the authorities, falling on the wrong side of some rules that apply to journalists, and left the country in a hurry.

After that it seems that he found that he could get more clicks/money with sensationalists anti-China content. Not nearly as good as his prior content.
The difference is completely and inherently political.
Sure, I understand the unfairness aspect, but I think there’s a limit to how fair we can actually make things for different individuals in different situations. We do make structural accommodations for people with disabilities and other disadvantages that can seem unfair to those with the privilege of not dealing with that situation.

I’m not against your sabbatical proposal per se but keep in mind it’s going to cost the company at least 20-30 times what parental leave does.
>You mean the link from [1] to "An experiment about static and dynamic type systems"

No. I mean, yes, that is one study, but there are a lot more. They all come out essentially the same.

Danluu did a an overview article a while ago:

https://danluu.com/empirical-pl/

Note that the A large scale study of programming languages and code quality in github paper, the one that makes some of the strongest arguments for safety of the bunch, was the one that was later completely taken apart at OOPSLA 2019. Its findings, which also had very small effect sizes and statistics significance, are completely invalid.

> do you really need a study that proves ... less null references errors

1. Languages don't have null errors, programs do.

2. I don't need a study to show that a program has less than or equal null errors in a language with null safety, because the program in a language without might still have zero. If you're going to make a logical claim, then let's stick to what's logically provable. If you're going to hand-wave...well you might as well use a dynamically typed language ;-)

3. I do need a study to show that such differences matter at all. All software has bugs, if this a significant source of bugs, then a mechanism to make me not have them might matter.

4. I do need a study to show that the net effect is positive. For example, the famous Caper Jones study showed that dynamic languages such as Smalltalk and Objective-C were significantly more productive than statically typed languages, including Haskell, C++ and Java. Studies also have long shown that bugs scale linearly with code size, a very strong correlation. So let's say null-references are 1% of you total bugs, but you now write twice the amount of code, that means a move to a null-checked language will significantly increase your total bug count, despite eliminating a certain class of bugs.

(In fact other, older studies showed that type errors accounted for 10% of bugs, so if you can save just 10% of code using a dynamically typed language, you're ahead in terms of bugs).

Of course, I can also not require such studies and make an engineering judgement. And this is fine, we do it all the time because very little in software has been demonstrated much at all. But you then need to be aware that this is a subjective judgement call, and others may reasonably come to a different conclusion.

And being aware of this makes for much, much better engineering judgement, IMHO.
Maybe, but be careful that this argument is circulated in good faith and not just as a cover for getting another dude over the line into the job. Especially if it's a job that has never been done by a woman, so you really don't know how they might do it better.

For example, it's been widely observed that on the whole, countries with female leadership understood and managed COVID better than the rest— acting sooner, more decisively, and in a way that both started and stayed aligned to the evolving scientific understanding.

> That led the state hospital’s attorney to have a police detective take Spriestersbach’s fingerprints. They didn’t match the ones they had on file for Castleberry. Officials also compared photos of the two men — again, not a match.

This is more than infuriating, that in the two years that Spriestersbach was wrongfully held, they never thought of matching fingerprints, or even photos? IANAL but the lack of such a basic level of background check like this is criminal.
There's actually an enormous abundance of nurses in the US. One in 100 people is a registered nurse.

The nursing shortages are entirely due to the fact that these nurses have left bedside care due to the BS they have to deal with from understaffing, poor compensation, terrible shifts/hours, to abusive management and patients.

The "nursing shortage" is as much a myth as the current labor shortage. There's only a shortage of nurses at current pay rates and working conditions.
Have used VOSK a bit recently. The out-of-the-box experience was great compared to earlier projects (looking at you Kaldi and Sphinx...). Word-level audio segmentation was one usecase, https://stackoverflow.com/a/65370463/1967571
Am I missing something? I looked it up and it says Fiji has not just one, but 25 hospitals. Some of them are small and can't handle anything too severe, but they do still have a large number of hospitals it seems. Are you saying none of these hospitals are capable of saving somebody's life if they have covid?
The variation within the US is striking. The NY Times interactive vaccination tracking page [1] has this neat visualization comparing the states [2].

For those unfamiliar with US geography, the way the graphs for each state are arranged matches the geographical layout of the states within the country, so if you've seen other maps of the US showing how something varies with location you can match those with the vaccination rate graphs and see interesting correlations.

Government politics is violence and coercion without consent - it is rotten at its very core. It may be necessary, and it can be better or worse, but forcing people to do things at the threat of violence is horrible. We should hope to evolve to a system where violent coercion is replaced by communication and consent.
Are you talking about the Peter Theil thing? I think it's fair that people who don't like watching billionaires exploit the rest of us would be equally pissed about Eric Schmidt dodging taxes.
The legal question I was referring was related to my perception that the goal was "source code compatibility for macOS applications" now, not after some essentially unbounded engineering task.

That may have been incorrect.
