My only real experience with giphy was when I was assisting ArchiveTeam in saving some gifs thaf giphy was going to delete. They wouldn’t give us a list of gifs that would be deleted, despite saying they wanted to help us. So we hit their API to get what GIFs were needed after they gave us a go-ahead (I don’t entirely remember how much permission was given here- it’s been a while.). After maybe an hour of hitting them fast enough to get the information we needed to save the gifs before they were deleted (which really wasn’t that many IIRC. Maybe 50/sec?), the whole site went down.

Later that evening, the CEO then threatened ArchiveTeam and got some bad press for suing some volunteers just trying to save some funny cat videos.

It didn’t ever amount to much, and I think they reversed the decision to remove them anyway.

Totally unrelated to the topic, but whenever someone mentions Giphy, this is all I can think about..

My Halloween haunt. We’re going to have singing pumpkins that light up according to syllables. We have 10 electric pumpkins that I still need to figure out how to waterproof (they’re plastic, but the shell isn’t water tight). I’m in the middle of sequencing “This is Halloween” from The Nightmare Before Christmas.”
I’ve definitely come to appreciate the way in which straight black and white can achieve better results on an e-paper display than greys.

Actually it does use real grey in one place: the highlighter. While you draw, it renders in chequered black and white like tools in grey, except that where it overlaps existing black-and-white chequering it turns it into solid black so you can see what you’re doing, and then it redraws the full highlighted area afterwards, with highlighting-on-white being true grey, and highlighting-on-faux-grey becoming, I think (don’t have a microscope or sufficiently capable macro lens handy, and ghosting makes it hard to be sure anyway) darker-faux-grey, chequered black and light grey.

If you go using the highlighter extensively as part of drawing, you rapidly discover just how awful the ghosting is until you can trigger a full redraw, which admittedly happens more often once actual greys are in use.

reMarkable also uses true greys in antialiasing of its own UI icons and text.
There will always be another variant. Most regular people aren't willing to put their normal lives on hold indefinitely in the hope that better vaccines might be available at some unknown point in the future. That's just human nature.
Your comment comes off as needlessly combative.

It is definitely a memory / attention thing. I don't see how I made any suggestion that "society needs to optimize" for me.

My point is that you need to asses the full lifecycle costs of any alternative given individual differences.

There are a few Christian sects against vaccination in general, but the only one most people are likely to have heard of is the Church of Christ, Scientist (not to be confused with Scientology, which has no problem with vaccination).

Some object to specific vaccines if they are made in particular ways, such as ways that involved tissue from aborted fetuses.

You might expect Judaism and Islam to both object that vaccines that use pork products (porcine gelatin for example), but they are both OK with it.

Here's some information on specific religions [1].

I have simple requirements, so I just have a few normal records for the external DNS (primarily for LE to use, but also to make it easier for me to find my way back into my home network when I'm out and about). For internal addresses, I just use overrides in Pi-Hole.

I 100% agree that the whole reason for this setup is my LE cert. For whatever reason, some of my internal services with self-signed certs are not usable with Chrome, and some are. I don't know what pushes Chrome over the edge so it won't let you override. So I set up an internal reverse proxy with nginx to front-end all my internal services, then I only have to worry about keeping the LE cert installed in one spot.

I had tapes growing up (though CDs were already a thing and much more popular), but aside from doing mixed CDs and burning MP3s on CD-R and CD-RWs, I was a total MiniDisc geek. I got into its second wave in the US circa 2000 or so, but for the 18-24 months before I got my first iPod (the 10G second gen model in summer 2002), it was not just the best MP3 player I ever had (you could output from your sound card to the MiniDisc, complete with meta-data applying to title info and then later iterations allowed more direct digital file writes), but paired with a good microphone or plugged into a soundboard, it was an excellent DAC for concerts or in my case, the best way for an aspiring high school filmmaker to record audio separately while making her mini-DV masterpieces.

Anyway, this is a cool project. I mostly used tape as a little kid until the price of DiscMans became cheap enough my mom would let me have one in the car for road trips, but it’s cool to see how many options there were.

Functional programming has the same problem as "AI" - as soon as something's adopted by the mainstream, it's "not really functional programming, just common sense". Ten years ago lambdas and map/reduce/filter were "functional programming"; now every language has them. Fifteen years ago having interfaces rather than just classes was "functional programming". Five years ago pattern matching was "functional programming"...

My brother-in-law and his wife are so called minimalists who moved back east from California. Buying a 5 bedroom 750k house wasn’t minimalist to start with .But they had to go car free and so needed to be in a walkable and hip part of the city.Then they had a kid and kept asking me and my wife as well as my parents for favors and stuff just so they didn’t have to buy or do things. Meanwhile scoffing at me and my wife for thrift shopping since we were buying stuff we needed.
I am sorry but minimalism is re-using and not wasting stuff as much as you can . Collecting experiences by traveling every weekend contributes hugely to pollution by airlines . A 750k open design house , going car-less, not buying a used lawnmower but paying someone to mow your lawn is extreme American privilege and a fad . Minimalism is doing with what you have and trying to recycle and re-use and right to repair .
I think it's important to take note that these issues arise from typed functional programming languages. Untyped functional programming languages aka dynamic FP languages avoid most of these problems entirely by having robust and useful metaprogramming features, whereas in languages like Haskell, most experiences Haskellers would tell you to avoid Template Haskell like the plague.

Just to give you a sense of the issue in typed FP, and I will take Haskell as the prime example, the average Haskeller will not be able what a Monad is beyond the standard definition in category theory. I tried it once, got the whole Slack channel explode as everyone tries to tell me "I will just get it".
This is the result of my study.
https://medium.com/glassblade/pragmatic-monad-understanding-...

IMO the main problem is that typed FP langs don't try to connect their abstractions to the mainstream languages when these abstractions clearly have some counterpart or an intuitive close cousin in typed OOP. Worse, these abstractions usually are gaping holes in the language design but the typed FP community thinks its a feature.

Some people are adequately humble on some occasions, but statistically speaking you're very correct about whom this applies to.

It depends on what you mean by "these behaviours". I'm suggesting that the author is claiming some great injustice but conveniently trying to avoid letting anyone judge for themselves, and in my experience the people doing that usually aren't the world's most upstanding citizens.

I'm certainly not suggesting that the author is prone to outbursts of racial slurs - that was just an example of something I encounter regularly, and typically that type of person is far less literate - but I am extremely doubtful that the content they're complaining about removal of is as "anti-bullshit" as they'd like to claim.
It's the dark side of representative democracy. Because, in practice, the representatives tend to be career politicians, often from long-running political dynasties, they effectively are - and, more importantly, consider themselves to be - distinct from the electorate at large. And this elitism often comes with a very paternalistic attitude - "the people might want it, but the people don't know what's good for them".

FWIW this is not at all unique to right wing politics, or to the US in general. For another example, consider how UK censors porn:

> The raids on our channels are a well known fact and those people are openly welcomed in the CalyxOS rooms

You've said this a number of times, but you've yet to provide any material evidence this has taken place.

From what I've seen as an impartial bystander, the CalyxOS community doesn't want anything to do with you or your (frankly hostile) community.

I've taken the liberty of doing a little digging and asking around, and it looks like you've even tied in CalyxOS to the recent Bromite impersonation incident. Judging by the chat log you shared on GitHub, it looks like the user was told to change the topic.

I really don't think it's appropriate to be downgrading and "attacking" (as you so vehemently protest) open-source projects like CalyxOS with similar goals. It's a shame such hostility is taking place, when both Calyx and Graphene are doing excellent work in the privacy sector.
You have to put a bit of time and effort into deliberate training, like most companies used to do for most positions.

Absolutely. Time was just as guilty of misinformation, exclusion, blackouts, appeal to vague authorities, and maintaining the Overton window for the establishment. Yeah, sure, it had a much more professional sheen and you had to pay attention to notice, but it was still shit.

I think it is genetic (with some parental / environment contributors).

If I look at my children, one has a get up and go attitude and the other is low self esteem. This from a very young age. The one with get up and go attitude is up early in the morning. The other struggles to wake.

Two parents with get up and go attitude may pass a genetic trait. Having a lot of energy makes it easier to engage, persevere and compete.

Even well-intentioned regulators are pretty incompetent given the fact they work for the government and all the nonsense that entails.

Yes, of course there's bullshit everywhere. But what can you do with that knowledge exactly? Knowing that something is fallacious and full of BS doesn't give you some advantage. It makes it worse. Knowing that the system is full of lies and corrupt doesn't provide a means to get some good from that knowledge or take advantage of knowing the "truth". It's just depressing to know that the takers will always be taking, the fakers will always be faking, and those who know how to work the lies keep winning while those who know the truth of the BS just self-congratulate their own knowledge. Does the BS always win?

Say one knows for a "fact" who killed JFK or the origins of the pandemic, or one knows the actual mechanism by which startups are funded or big deals won (it's never the way it's portrayed to be). What does knowing the truth of any of those facts do other than provide one with some self-satisfaction of knowing? Is it better to live in self-deception and believe the simple lie versus know the hard truth? Does knowing the "actual truth" even provide that self-satisfaction given that the lies and untruths win out so much of the time? Confronting the lies never seems to provide the expected win that those who seem to possess the truth would expect.
My wife owns an after school tutoring center. We sponsor the local elementary school - and one time they had a silent auction fundraiser. We were asked if we can donate anything. We said sure...we gave them three vouchers, worth ~$150 each of services. We were expecting 3 lucky families.

At the end, the coordinator herself won (or supposedly won?) all 3 vouchers and showed up with her kid. For the next silent auction we ensured to put 1 voucher per family. The shock on her face when she showed up again, with 3 vouchers in hand and my wife told her to read the fine print.

From the HN comments it looks like - we were silly for trying to promote something in good faith and we deserved to have been abused. Jokes on them because reality is small businesses stop doing fun things for the community and it becomes strictly business.
Hi HN,

I'm the creator, Chris :)

I'm stoked to be able to share v2.0 of Swair with you all. After working hard over the past year and listening to feedback, new features have been added that aim to help our users work better with clients.

What is Swair?
Swair is an all-in-one communication hub that is a task management tool, client portal and payment gateway.

The problem:
If you're a freelancer or customer, have you had to deal with multiple communication channels to work on one task? Email, dropbox, slack, Whatsapp, the list can go one. Because of this there is no unification of information, files and conversations, so communication becomes fragmented and it's easy for mistakes and disorganisation to impact things.

The solution:
Based on my own experience dealing with contractors, I wanted an all-in-one hub to serve as the place to not only work on tasks, but serve as a portal into the work, so I can be kept up-to-date on what's being done and not make a job out of keeping informed. And so, Swair was born from my own frustration and desire to improve communication and collaboration by providing a common workspace that satisfies the needs of both sides. It allowed me to make better informed decisions with less effort and reduced the level of anxiety on the job.

Swair is FREE to use for clients or those not wanting to make use of payment features.

What's new:
- Task sharing has been simplified and expanded
- Payments & invoicing has been improved
- Wiki section now supports markdown
- You can now embed 'Share links' of popular sites (Youtube, Miro, Airtable, etc.) as custom views
- 'Team Projects' are now available - white-labelled workspace which can be customised with your own logo & color scheme - all accessible from a custom subdomain!
- File library now supports versioning
- Other new features include saving map locations, calendar events and checklists
- (More features are still coming)

> An imperative programmer throws in a global time variable, possibly a local timeout variable and gets on with life.

Which actually destroys the ability to refactor in the large. You have no idea what might use that global time variable from where or why. Choosing to use FP is choosing to ban yourself from taking on that kind of tech debt (although we should note that most FP languages have an "escape hatch" if you need it - even in Haskell you can always unsafePerformIO). There are definitely times where you want to do that, but I don't think it's right to frame that as the non-functional language making things easier to refactor in the large - rather the non-functional language makes it easier to not refactor in the large because you don't fully decouple things in the large in the first place.
Did … did you just write a blurb followed by pushing a service to do it for you exactly as the author lamented?
I've definitely seen posts by community managers used as reference for some gaming-related articles, which I assume would fit under "Self-published or questionable sources as sources on themselves."

But, of course, none of those posts specifically targeted their Wikipedia articles.
Depends on how much you trust your ISP. For example, AT&T is in the top five list of ISPs around the world that do Deep Packet Inspection, so that they can throttle your NetFlix and Amazon Prime streaming TV speeds, as well as insert their own ads where they want, etc…. Who knows what else they’re doing?

Same with Spectrum. That’s the two high speed carriers that are common here in Austin. Sure, there are smaller carriers in fringe areas, but they are a small fraction of the market.

This is why I want a proper SDN. Let me treat the carrier like opaque dumb pipes, and aggregate the bandwidth across those channels, so that I am insulated from total failure if just one of them should go down, and in the expected case I can manage my own traffic shaping the way I want it to be in the house.

What point are you trying to make with all these rhetorical questions? The purpose of investigations and prosecutions is to uncover these criminals and warmongers and bring them to justice. See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuremberg_trials

Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Libya, etc. These wars and genocides and destabilizing and destroying these countries didn't just organically come about through nobody's fault.

There are warmongers and war profiteers and traitors involved, and they need to be brought to justice.
Opening an account or the existence of one isn't "negative information."

Sure, but I meant if they're reporting you to a credit agency for owing money or whatever. That is them publishing false information about you that will have negative consequences for you.
