in that particular case, it was shockingly an (illegal) accumulation point of bodies.

and regarding photos and ability to take them, are'nt you being pedantic?
the overall story is journalism... the media chose to bury this incident, gave (and continues to give) a free pass to all who were involved.

And there is a bigger difference:

In both the case where this journalist was killed and in the elderly being killed, mistakes were made, but the intent is important.

One is because some protocols were not followed in the heat of action, the other is because of political considerations, for the state to not use the resources provided by the feds, and hiding this news till later.

Before the bunch of people respond, let us remember our political bias since we all have one, and despite that, try to do the best we can, giving the benefit of doubt.

Note that this policy of shifting elders back to homes was not stopped for months, though makeshift facilities were available, no data was made available, no questions asked.

the only issues that are raised are those the media takes an interest in. Hence my original post.
How is this "history repeating itself"? A few people objected during the Spanish flu so if we have even a single person that objects nowadays it's "history repeating itself"?
What if we discriminate against a minority based on their belief (e.g. refusing a medical intervention) and don't allow them to live a normal life. Is that also history repeating itself? I can think of a few instances in history where groups were prosecuted for their convictions. Are we currently repeating that part of history?
1. I had originally set up a JIRA ticketing system, but never got bug reports, so I dismantled it. I dislike structure for the sake of structure.

These days, I get maybe one report, every couple of months. Most often, I find bugs, myself, through testing. I tend to deal with bugs immediately. A sticky pad on my desk, or a self-email, is usually sufficient.

On the app I'm currently developing, I use GitHub Issues to track bugs. Kinda quiet, but it's a good way to catalogue upcoming features. I still tend to fix bugs immediately. I run my projects as "constant beta," so I try to keep them bug-free, from the start.

Basically works pretty well.

2. I publish directly. I've had over 20 apps, but most have been deprecated, by now.
I hope they guy gets nothing and has to pay everyone's court costs.

I have never seen such a clear cash in attempt. I hope the judge laugh's this guy out of the court room if it goes that far.

This has been my go-to stack for quite some time. Very happy with it. Perfect combination for a mostly CRUD app.
Could you list examples of the local equivalents that are in common use?

What? The browser made by the company that derives 90% of its revenue from ads doesn't want to show you a button that can remove the ads? I am shocked!
In JavaScript “export default foo” is different to “export { foo as default }”

Perceptual hashes are only used to reduce the search space for human review. Apple doesn’t have images in the CSAM database to do a comparison, but if it’s just a picture of a door their going to reject it. Also, because human review is an expense Apple’s incentives are to minimize the number of times it happens, thus the requirement for multiple collisions.
I can get a free salary raise of 3% when staying, or 20% when leaving.

To be fair, I took their matching counteroffer, but that would not have happened without me leaving in the first place.
"Profit" is fundamentally opposed to "purpose". Capitalism relies on private property and profits by engineering consent/desire for goods. Any sane system that respects the environment and the people would instead start from needs/desire and elaborate consistent solutions to address them.

Or, formulated another way, one's private profit is always someone else's loss/exploitation.
My feedback as a father of 3 in 1st grade, kinder, and preschool is that I could not figure out what was different about this then other things out there.

Good luck!
In my experience companies don't have long-term plans or vision for their products, and it leads to work becoming tedious. You come in excited with no understanding of the product, you get knowledgeable and learn what's good and what's bad. Eventually you fix the bad you can fix and learn what bad you can't fix, and then the frustration outweighs the enjoyment.

I've tried to bring up these kind of big picture frustrations with managers before, but they're always focused on surviving the next 3-6 months.

Claiming everything is child pornography is damaging to stopping actual child pornography.
It may not be as widespread, but this is just as just as damaging as QAnon's "Save the Children" "movement"[0].

If he got paid 200$ back in the day, and thinks he deserves more money, that is fairly simple case to make and most people would agree.

He is not helping his case by shouting wolf. How would you feel about this article if you or one of your children were an actual sexual assault victim?

> So where do you get power during the 50% of the time when there is no wind?

A 50% capacity factor does not mean there's no wind 50% of the time. It only means that, averaged over a whole year, the power produced is 50% of the maximum the generator is rated to produce. This includes periods of time when there's wind, but wind that's not strong enough to reach the maximum output of the generator.

And the wind not being strong enough to reach the maximum output of the generator is probably the most common situation, since it makes sense to design the generator to reach its maximum output at the strongest normal wind on the region; when the wind is stronger than that maximum, the generator has to shut down (feather the blades and brake the rotor), otherwise it will get damaged.
I dont run a company, but I am very pleased to see:

* Many founders are using Digital Ocean or Linode or something similar/simple, and not complicated k8s/aws setups

* Many founders are using boring but stable tech like python/django or rails or similar for the backend, and vanilla js for the frontend

Looks like where it matters, ie, shipping something, most are using boring but stable tech instead of Fad-of-the-week
Odd choice of target. Illegal or not, I would have expected such a group to start with reporting abortion-fetish group members, or reporting the clinics that profit from selling organs of live babies from drug-addict mothers. I am not providing links to any of that mess. Seen the leaked video footage and it can not be unseen.
Personally, I found reader mode missed just enough — like images loaded with js or footnotes referenced in an article — that it was more trouble than it was worth. And as much as I liked the "readability", I missed missed seeing the different designs, fonts and so on. (Who would want to read all books with exactly the same layout and typeface‽)

Now I have a collection of user stylesheets I use with Stylus to improve sites I read a lot. I especially often remove fixed toolbars and adjust font size and line height. I also use the browser zoom feature a lot to get one-off sites to a better reading text size.
And these rules are particularly bizarre. Rust, C, and C++ are all allowed to use custom allocators while Java and C# have GCs which are optimized for this particular micro benchmark but not for real world applications (although I hear Java’s GCs are making good headway on latency lately, and clearly all of the GCs are suitable for general application development). So it’s really just Go which is forbidden from an idiomatic optimization as far as I can tell.

- Ruby on Rails

- Postgres

- AWS S3

- Heroku

I choose Rails since it allowed me to get off the ground running and hosted it on Heroku for its ease of use and it saves me a lot of time with its default configurations.

I don’t have many clients now but I should be able to handle hundreds of users on my current setup based on my pod testing.
iCloud Custom Domain now available
I see, thanks. I'm wondering if there might be any good examples of cyclic systems in the natural world too? Both of those devices are complicated, and you'd need to know the operation in detail to be able to connect it with the phases of a state-cycle-diagram.. but maybe something natural might make it easier to understand?
Ah. Agreed. Then let's solve the problem of printers altogether. Why let them enforce the use of only certain ink refills? Surely that also is monopolistic behaviour?

In markets in SE Asia, I've seen people still use older Canon models because it allows them to fill their ink cartridges and beat the cost of having to buy official ink cartridges. Those printer still work well afterwards. A business I once consulted for had a 10 years old printer that still was chugging on happily with cheap ink fills.
I doubt it. I'd imagine one of their top priorities is relationship with models on their site. It's not like they have some crazy proprietary platform that couldn't be copied. If it came out this was a head fake it would damage that trust with models.
That's just another way of saying more expensive transactions. Rent must be cheap or it's not economical. Total fees, inclusive of rent, are low. That's the Solana pitch.
The CEO actually blamed banks, not payment processors. He specifically said MasterCard was not to blame, but name-dropped banks that he did blame.

I don't think payment processors would care at all because they're an oligopoly. I doubt most banks would care much either, but maybe they are afraid of losing business from large-volume merchants.

Most likely some alternative banks stepped up and told OnlyFans they'd love to work with them.
You posed the following question:

> If nobody can read the EULA because it's 10 pages of densely written legalese, can they even be bound by it?

I explained to you that the premise of your question was flawed. I didn't comment on any other considerations beyond that.
>We can get them at $100/kWh now.

The problem with battery energy storage is not cost but scale. There isn't a battery in the world that can power a gigawatt scale electric grid for more than a few minutes. The original point is a good one - no renewable generation technology is a replacement for coal/gas/nuclear simply due to the unpredictable and variable nature of renewable generation.

Edit - it is very telling that information and views that go against the grain of "renewable energy is the sole future" are instantly downvoted. Shame on you.
Talk to your friends and coworkers about salaries. No one needs to reveal where they're at, but just talk about what the market's paying for relevant employees.

Also ask them if their company is hiring and has reasonable interviewing practices. Not everyone makes candidates jump through hoops.
I use Laravel daily. With xdebug on, the request shows down easily 2-5x times. For a real performance benchmark turn that off, and Laravel is easily in the 50ms response time range.

It could also be that they don’t know how to optimize PHP settings. OPcache is amazing for performance, but by default caches only 1/5th the number of files in an app. I boost that to 20-40k just to ensure performance.

Edit:

Ouch, I just looked at the Dockerfile. No wonder it is slow! He misconfigured the Laravel tests. The built-in PHP server is known to have less than optimal performance, and he used NGINX as a reverse-forward proxy to it. Not cool. At least set it up with PHP-FPM + nginx to see how it really runs.
Hmmm so they haven't even built the prototype yet, and it won't be built for another year, it won't be installed for another 2 years, and they won't start actual commercial production of these things for another 3 years. So this is pretty much just a CAD design / simulation. This is pure PR until all of those are accomplished.
I use it often. Lots of sites have become wise to its use for bypassing paywalls, but it does work, occasionally, to get past a required sign-in.

It's good for downloading sites as PDF.
There are many estimates, but the estimate in Iraq alone is 1/2 Million children deaths -- back in 1996. The US State Secretary Madeline Albright -- on video -- not only doesnt deny it but says it was worht the cost!: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bntsfiAXMEE

In the case of Iraq, the deaths were due to two reasons

- President Bush 1's strategy to destroy civil infrastructure (water purification plants, sewage plants), which resulted in...bad water and mass deaths via disease

- President Clinton's sanctions which disallowed almost everything as dual use and prevented critical relief, essentially starving society for 8+ years.

The interview is from half-way thru the Clinton term.

Yes, that is my experience.

Another super important thing to remember is that main goal of this is to have super simple code and very simple but rock solid guarantees.

The main benefit is writing application code that is simple, easy to understand and simple to prove it works correctly, enabled by reliable infrastructure.

When you are not focusing on various ridiculous technologies that each require PhDs to understand well, you can focus on your application stack, domain modeling, etc. to make it even more reliable.
Join me as a technical co-founder in a fintech startup to change the world
About the problem and startup

Most business founders do not know their real-time financial status of their companies. Usually, companies receive a status update every month or every quarter, after their accountant has updated all of the books.

Similarly, accounting software are a black box for CEOs and CFOs. More than often, accountancy jargon is used and the data cannot be leveraged financial projections and visibility.

Rivermate wants to change that by building an all-in-one financial management platform

We do this by connecting your account with third-party services that already hold valuable information, such as Stripe, Shopify, TransferWise, creditcards, Zoho, etc. This way, information is always up to date, and not just when you manually export data from all your services. Along with that, we will build an interface which business founders can leverage, such as payment prediction, categorising costs and using graphs, many graphs.

Also your accountant has access to the software, so you can cut out the back and forth emailing and have one single source of truth.

We will first focus on e-commerce entrepreneurs in The Netherlands, Europe. I have an extensive network of e-commerce entrepreneurs (14k contacts) that I have generated from my time at my previous company (a SaaS company for ecom entrepreneurs, which I sold to my co-founder).

Once I find the right co-founder, I will reach out to investors to get funding. I know many big VC's in Europe and can call them when we are ready to get funded.

This business has a shot at becoming a HUGE company. The market is hot (look at Ramp, Brex, Pilot, that focus on the US market) and we can capitalize the European market.

What I'm looking for?

There is one thing holding me back from making this a successful company: I have yet to find the right co-founder. I'm not only looking for a technical co-founder, but also someone who wants to dedicate all of his time on building this company and who is willing to put skin in the game for at least the coming 5 years.

If I manage to find a co-founder before September 8, we can apply for YC's W22 batch!

Criteria

Experience in working in a startup

40+ hours available per week

Ready to put skin in the game

No payment, only equity until we get to the market

It's available on Linux for me. I'm on Pop! OS 21. The "listen" option is a set of earphones at the top left of the page.

The voices are awful to listen to, though.
I've used both. It depends on how personal your personal email is. A custom domain is only worth the expense and trouble if your email address is in any way part of your first impression.

If you are just giving this address to the services you sign up for, friends and family then GMail/Outlook's reliability actually make them preferable to setting up an email server on your domain.

Fastmail et al sell their paid service on a promise that you see no ads, and the contents of your emails will not be scanned by the same automated services that Gmail/Outlook use. This doesn't translate into better sending/receiving of email and depending on who you are, you can decide how much that extra privacy is worth in terms of dollars.
It's increasingly tiresome to have to explain to Americans that thinking and literature on this subject did not end in 1776, and that it would do them tremendous amounts of good to try and understand some of it. I don't even know where to start with a comment like this.

Human rights were never meant to be static, and no good cause for them remaining to be static exists (based on the simple premise that the human condition continues to evolve), or that writing human rules/laws/guidelines could even be without contradiction. I find it a ridiculous requirement. Laws should not be a mechanical thing, and never completely absolve man from having to think about particular situations. That is not and must not be the point.

I figured it was some kind of publicity stunt from the beginning.

There is no way they didn't know this would kill the company.
Reminds me of AOL which was basically impossible to cancel. I don't subscribe to Netflix anymore but I still have positive feelings about their cancellation process which was super straightforward without any dark patterns.
The code behind the magic: the tag
It's never malice. Nobody goes, "hey, this compound is 100% only women and children, let's bomb it."

Reality: "A patrol nearby said they took fire from the compound at such and such grid coordinates" It gets bombed. Turns out the unit on the ground was mistaken.

War is hell. War criminals should be punished. But it's not a war crime to make a mistake. I love seeing these posts because it's clear that almost nobody here has experienced war. My ROEs were ridiculously strict on the ground in southern Afghanistan.

It's important to have some context as well:

> According to the United Nations, the Taliban and its allies were responsible for 76% of civilian casualties in Afghanistan in 2009, 75% in 2010 and 80% in 2011.

So sure. Both sides have killed civilians. But one side tries it's best to be accountable and limit human suffering while still carrying out missions. The alternative is to not be there at all.
Ask HN: Why use secrets managers?
I've come across a number of people recently who insist on storing their secrets (e.g., passwords, private keys, credentials) in a secrets manager such as HashiCorp Vault or AWS Secrets Manager. Intuitively, I believe this a good idea, but I would like to understand it better. Is this a new phenomenon, or something that’s been desirable in software since the advent of the industry? Where is this narrative coming from?

Is this idea driven by security? Has it been proven to be a safer paradigm than storing keys in a variety of systems?

Is the idea driven by management? Do folks charged with managing keys prefer to keep all of their keys under one roof so it's easier to keep tabs on, thereby reducing risk?

Is this idea driven by policy? Does GDPR or other mandatory or optional regulatory frameworks imply a customer should control their secrets centrally?

Is the idea driven by sales? Does Azure, GCP, AWS, and HashiCorp all have products that they earn additional $$$ with (pay-per-access and update), and are pushing their customers to use then?

I'm curious to hear what others think or know. Thanks!
Apple was sending unencrypted on the network what application you started, if they would "actively tries not to know anything about you" they could have implemented this better.

Anyway how is your assumption make sense , Apple cares about children and about your privacy so scanning your images in iCloud was wrong until 2021 when something changed, what changed? does Apple cares more about children starting from now or they care less about privacy? or are they forced to do it?
Haha. That sounds like a joke playing off the BIG.little name. I'd like to read about that.
It's extraordinary that payment processors don't have any regulations that force them to serve businesses in a neutral fashion. It's weird that they're allowed to play morality police with the Internet even though they have no formal governmental role as such.

You'd think that once the government decides what is and isn't acceptable, the processors would follow that lead. But instead they go a different, more restrictive way.

I guess they want to be everyone's prudish uncle, instead of payment processors.
I don't really have a list, but in addition to maps, Naver also has search, email, calendar, cloud storage, etc.

Thanks for your feedback. Might I ask what you are using currently when you refer to “other things out there”? Epic? AR? I ask because I am unfamiliar with any reading program that live streams actors and teachers into the classroom, re-enacts the books into episodes with live actors in addition to lesson plans and ebook library.
The composition of fallout from US tests was also a big clue.
I think it’s purposefully outrageous to get more clicks.
I have been using reader-mode on Firefox and Chrome for long.

Not just for better readability, but also most content behind paywalls is accessible with readermode.

(May be because, most of the paywalls on news websites load all initial content, and then either truncate the content or hide the content using javascript, and hitting the paywall renders the page again without a lot of the CSS and JS that is used for hiding the content behind the paywall).

Hopefully, this content doesn't have those paywall service providers to start working around reader modes.
