I disagree. 14% of the US use reddit++. It's possible, and IMHO, likely that most HN users are reddit users. It's definitely not the case that most reddit users are HN users.
t
In my utterly subjective opinion, the users of HN are generally older, and almost certainly more STEM oriented than their reddit counterparts. Both their age and their experience might explain why they are more skilled at eviscerating a commenter while staying within the letter of HN social norms and moderation.

Moreover, and I reiterate, IMHSO, the more toxic users on HN tend to be primarily reactionary in political persuasion, whereas, reddit has a much more wider political varieties of jackass. Perhaps this is a result of there not being subHN forums to where people would self-segregate.

Firefox, and the Mozilla organization itself, has its own fair share of issues.

I really wish more people would look at and help develop NetSurf[0] or other lightweight browsers with their own layout engines More importantly, I wish that regular users would stop going with the 900 pound Chromium/Blink gorilla, and instead use a greater variety of browsers/engines. This browser monoculture is just pure death.

Lol, nobody is going to gas the antivaxxers and put them to death.

The worst possible imaginable thing would be forcible vaccination.

Which amounts to a needle prick (that you honestly can't even feel) followed by dramatically reduced incidence of disease and a bunch of people will live a lot longer than they would otherwise.

But, yeah, that totally sounds like genocide to me.
This has absolutely been used "in the wild". One particularly nasty strain of ad-block-evasion scripts would detect the developer tools being opened, and would reload the page and disable most of its features to prevent them from being analyzed.
My nose says otherwise.
I am thinking that the whole vaccine passport and the AI god are the parts that will lead to socialism 2.0. The administrative overhead of rationing made that impossible in previous eras. If you need your vaccine passport to move around and use all services, they might be able to collect enough data to cram everyone down in an automated fashion. For example, low social credit scores cannot fly in airplanes or take trains in China. This is not science fiction, this is happening right now.

Carbon taxes are kind of a non-starter for real climate lockdown advocates because they go to governments who spend them on all sorts of corruption and waste. The carbon has to remain in the ground, not simply be redistributed.

>Not now and not yet, but why wait until something becomes a problem before it's addressed?

Because the proposed solution - having government take control of speech on the internet and replacing free speech and association rights with compelled speech on the grounds that being able to choose with whom you do business and under what terms is too dangerous to allow - is even worse for society than the problem. Were the problem to exist. Which it doesn't.
privacy is privacy, you can't pretend to care about it while at the same time pushing something like this through
>"Tenant screening and selection practices promote accepting applicants regardless of their sobriety
or use of substances, completion of treatment, or participation in services"

This is such an important piece of a complex puzzle. It easy to see from the outside that substance abuse is self-destructive behavior. The problem is that these abusers, consciously or not, feel that the substance is the only thing that helps them and keeps them from totally losing their shit. The authoritarian approach of "quit abusing substances or no housing for you" has failed spectacularly.

Getting these people on the path of recovery requires the lower tiers of Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs (like safety, food, shelter, etc...) to be securely in place first.
Ossification in name of keeping control is a real threat. For the society to thrive, it needs a bit of breathing space. In the past, even authoritarian states could not control their population too tightly. With contemporary tech, it is all too possible to keep tight tabs on everyone.

I am mostly afraid of Western governments adapting the same attitude in order to (suppress disinformation, eradicate terrorism, punish child porn, choose one or more...)

In that case, China could still win, because Western societies will work even worse under authoritarian yoke. We are not used to muddling through in such conditions. The Chinese are.
>We should want individuals to make moral and political decisions and participate in the processes that allow for change and remediation. By having companies both large and small become the moral arbiters and forcibly excluding people from the participation in society will only ever end badly.

Allowing corporations to make decisions on moral, ethical or political grounds isn't at odds with your framing of individual agency. If corporations (or other organized entities) do something that most associated individuals find to be truly against their moral and political sensibilities, then in a world where individual agency matters the way you imply it does, people would simply dissociate from the company/organization at some point.

I doubt that will happen with any kind of scale in this case, as there are some behaviors and beliefs that - while legal - are generally viewed as undesirable, and aren't going to garner any support from your average employee. Doxxing and harassing women seeking abortions is just one of many such cases.

I recently switched back to Linux after not using it as my main OS for a couple of years.

I was surprised how better it got, one example, everything worked well out of the box, and I installed Arch Linux not Ubuntu, no problem at all, GNOME 40 is great, fonts are good out of the box, gestures that works, things like screen brightness works, Wayland is finally stable, printer installs without too much trouble.
I think I realized that America is lawless when no one who matters went to jail for torture during the Afghanistan/Iraq wars. Shoplifting is a drop in the bucket compared to that, so I have no sympathy for "tough on crime" rhetoric anymore.

> IT is a highly skilled and trained job; staff it as such

I don't think it's highly trained at all!

What kind of training do major tech companies do? I've never done any in my career, outside my degrees, and not everyone does that even! Is that unusual?

Contrast that with the military, which is obsessive about training and invests a huge amount of time and effort into it throughout your entire career.

So who are we taking lessons from here?

Yes it does. It does it by handwaving relative weakeness without proof or argument by asserting the superiority of "our system", which is liberal democracy.
As per the somewhat famous blog post: C is not a low-level language. Especially on todays CPU’s I fail to see why would we consider C anything close to truly low level. It has no real way of managing cache, has absolutely zero support for vector instructions, etc. *

With these in mind, Rust is lower and higher level than C at the same time.

* other than some compiler specific pragmas, but I would be hesitant to call that natively supported

How were you taking it? It can be mild if taken throughout the day (600mg morning and 300-600mg evening before food was perfect for me).

It can also be used in "burst mode" (great for a create or a work session) either by taking 1200mg+ at once or best 300mg every 20min, eat something after 900mg, never exceed 1.2-1.8g.

It can be recreational as it often (but not always) has the good effects of alcohol (and a similar hangover).

But it takes ~2hrs to feel the effects and it lasts 2-3hrs. If you try to take more you get nasty effects like nausea, tiredness, stupidity and sleepiness.

Some people report these effects in general even after a small dosage, so it looks like not everyone reacts well to it.

Haven't tried pregabalin, wish I could.
OK, I understand.

I give Firefox browser engine 5 years top before Mozilla becomes Chromium based. Servo WAS meant to be the future had Mozilla continued to fund its development, there is no way around that fact. Yes, it was experimental, but so where every other browser engines/forks when they started. Mozilla lost a lot of goodwill when they fired Servo team and most of the Rust developers.
I have never known anyone to need to delete an individual cookie vs all for a site. Certainly I've never needed that.

Only time I have (probably ever) deleted an individual cookie was for testing during development, and in those cases I already use the dev tools to do so.

Firefox works well enough for me.
I agree its true but its easy to change your resume to make your current job a lite manager. Put the title in and list all the responsible stuff you've done. With a bit of exaggeration you've been some kind of middle manager the last 5 years I'm sure.

Really? What the fuck did Apple do, that you gave them total control to dictate _your_ walled garden in the first place?

I just don't get it. My best guess is Sunk-cost-color glasses,. From the moment they launched itunes (which is 15y old for me) I understood their value was a walled garden as a platform. Users as a commodity. Valuation as overlords.

What ever gave you a different idea?
Ah, well the bit quoted was from the very first episode when Arthur explains to the workmen who have come to knock down his house how he found out about the plans to build a bypass, and hence demolish his house.

You've been using HN primarily for political and ideological battle. We ban accounts that do that, regardless of their ideology, because it's destructive of the intended use of this site.

I'm not going to ban you for this right now because we haven't warned you before, but your account is way over the line for bannability. (The criteria we apply are explained in past comments here: https://hn.algolia.com/?sort=byDate&dateRange=all&type=comme....) Seriously not cool. If you keep this up, we will have to ban you, so please stop and use HN as intended.
You're right, i was talking about eligible population, i should be more careful with my wording.

Still though, I disagree that "all stats are worse than last year". Hospitalizations are near exclusively among the unvaccinated. If we didn't have a vaccine, our hospital system would have collapsed, whereas right now we have little to no restrictions, just masks in public transit and shopping centers.

I know about them. I also know that they couldn't draw any conclusions about the effectiveness of ivermectin, meaning that people who are currently using it might as well be rubbing crystals for all the good it will do them. Just because a scientist tries something, doesn't mean it's a cure or a treatment. It means they're making an attempt at understanding something.

We already have treatments that work. Roundworm poison isn't going to save anybody.
The logical result of an entire generation that interacted with Biology mainly through Pokemons.

Animals can show some degree of intelligence because they have brains feeded by biological sensors. Brains are made of nerve cells.

It is also very possible for cannabis to be an improvement to the baseline. There are many, many people who could not function in society and work for their living without cannabis, be it due to MS-related spasticity, PTSD-related hypervigilance, ADHD-related need for stimulation, autoimmune-related inflammation, difficult to treat eating disorders such as anorexia and ARFID, or just plain old chronic pain — and about about it not working for pain, it does work for some, why should they be denied?
I wonder if users who are unwilling to deal with increased hassle in browser changing will also give up things like iPhone/iOS which outright ban competing browser engines.
Effectively zero. Ridiculous that anyone would think this an issue even worth discussing.
Leaning harder to use better programming languages and tools. So many devs I know would much rather be using something else, but just go along with using whatever is popular.

This takes effort in both convincing and in putting in the extra work to make it work smoothly because it isn't a beaten path, but if the choice isn't superficial it will more than pay for itself.

Even when you don't dictate the specific language used, you can still strongly influence the style of program composition so that it has less mutable state or distantly-coupled behaviour and the like so that it works like a better language than if you didn't.
> people who don't care

You cannot care if you are not aware. It is a complicated matter which looks very abstract when you haven't had a chance to look into it and think.

And then, some are aware and really don't care. But at least it is a conscious choice.

Please don't flamebait. The poster is talking about year-on-year changes in a neighborhood, not decade-on-decade changes in a whole country. The relevance of personal experience is drastically higher in the first case.

Because Google figures, and they're probably correct, that removing it would prevent the average luser from even considering that they could take these privacy-friendly steps in the first place, which ends up putting more money in Google's pockets from the advertisers.
This post is pretty bad. Trademarks are healthy for open source to prevent maliciously modified versions (see Firefox and Ubuntu). Also, people won't voluntarily pay for something they can get for free, so trademarks are a good and valid way to monetize open source to make it sustainable (but it has to be done very carefully which some of these examples may not be doing).

Qloo | Multiple Roles | Full Time | REMOTE (NYC & Amsterdam)

Qloo predicts consumer taste across media, products, fashion, hospitality and travel in a privacy-centric manner. We have an API and maintain some consumer-facing projects. We were funded by investors like AXA and Elton John, Leonardo DiCaprio, Barry Sternlicht, and others.

We're a small team with big output. There's a nice office in SoHo, NYC you can work out of, if you want.

We have a few positions available with flexible terms and titles:

1. Senior React developer – Typescript, redux, material-ui, xstate, Storybook.

2. DevOps / Cloud – Kubernetes, aws, Python, Airflow, Postgres.

We'd love to hear from you: jobs@qloo.com

Please mention your general location and include links to any relevant projects.
The hyperbole in this thread is insane. I would wager that none of the furious "this is pure evil!" commenters in this thread even knew this particular settings page existed before today (and I'd bet they still don't know the information is already exposed in the URL bar).

Nobody who isn't a web developer is out there trying to guess what individual cookie names/values mean or wants to delete individual ones. At most, they just want to be able to clear them per-site (or across the entire browser).

Anyone else will use the Developer Tools UI that's better suited for the task.
There also aren't any Qt bindings for C, to my knowledge.
Please stop using HN for political and ideological battle. We've already had to ask you this. If you keep it up, we're going to have to ban you, because it's destructive of what this site is supposed to be for.

No, the relevant question is: who gets to decide that we end up having this discussion?

Mass surveillance is not an option.

Even if it were, it would eventually expose a wrong approach. Mitigating (systemic) child abuse does not necessitate flashy “crypto surveillance”. It asks for well educated and vigilant societies and correspondingly smart and industrious investigation work.

At best this is aimless activism. Either way trust has been broken. Big time.

Thanks for the stereotypical reply to this issue. The linked article is condescending and smug, and nobody with anything better to do will read past the first few sentences with the author's "unique" opinion on Section 230.

Do you have anything reasonable that describes the position that Section 230 somehow doesn't mean what it plainly says?
Yeah. Another of the issues is that it’s picked by people who (supposedly) chose the right tool for them, without considering wether or not it was optimised for those actually doing the tasks.

At least that’s how I ended up with boards that absolutely didn’t match my workflow and required me to copy / paste tasks from one board to the other to pass it off to the next step (QA), with QA feedback via Slack.

That’s not quite my ideal "single source of truth" regarding what I have to do.
