Hi. "Democracy is rule by the people" - well, I know enough to know that it's not any one thing, or captured by any one definition. How that one differs from "majority rules" I'm not sure. Anyway. Let's not get into that here.

> "Australian Indians" means the same thing as "Australian Aborigines" Indian and Aborigine are synonyms.

Uh I'm not sure where you are, but in Australia it sure doesn't mean that. No-one here calls aborigines "Indians", and far as I know never has.

Hehe it's ok, I think most Australians probably believe that 1967 thing, if they know the date at all, I'm not sure why. The truth is somewhat complicated.

Gee, I had no idea NZ was involved in the pre-Federation conferences in Australia, although sounds like NZ just wasn't very into it. A wise decision!

That’s fine, as long as you agree that ‘Long Covid’ is an undefined condition so it has no place in any scientific discussion, and at least part of the symptoms it is popularly claimed to include, specifically some debilitating form of lung damage, does not occur in the large majority of cases. It doesn’t occur in the short term and subsequently it doesn’t occur in the long term.
I found this to be a pretty good blog post summarizing China's geographical interests.

Obviously they project soft power further, but it is based on economic leverage in the same way that the USA has been doing since WW2. For example, that French museum exhibition was dependent on a Chinese museum to do their exhibition. That dependency came with strings. Only a fool would think that means the Red Army is about to invade Eastern Europe.

How does capitalism (private ownership of assets) win with this? Your statement presumes government influence over all private assets. That is not a capitalist construct, quite at odds with it in freedom-loving societies.

Instead of staying, 'government influence always wins' (which is both what you're implying and what is being observed here), you've replaced 'government influence' with the word capitalism. Nonsense where words have meaning.

History is just that: history. A white male going to uni _right now_ hasn't really enjoyed those historical advantages; they were before their time.

Yes there are other advantages in the modern world to being a white male, but there are also equivalent disadvantages, too. Easier to get power...but if you're male nobody is there to defend you or help you. Help yourself, defend yourself _and_ others, be the breadwinner (otherwise you're useless) "man up".
Not being a legal expert, I can’t tell where the boundary is between enabling legitimate police work and giving (accidentally or deliberately) the police the power to plant fake evidence, the latter being what some of this sounds like. But, I’m not a legal expert, and “sounds like” is a way to make very large mistakes when looking outside of one’s own domain of expertise like I’m doing here.

(Also doesn’t help that I hear about stories like this from people who don’t like them, so I get a potentially biased first impression).

It was never legally tested. It was what I felt I had to do such that the randomness didn't take place on the island. And no randomness ever did. I was in touch with a lot of officers of the large casinos operating out of there at the time, who were curious but skeptical about Bitcoin. I think by the time they realized it was a potentially valuable thing, I had already shut down operations, because I wasn't willing to chase the market into legally gray areas.

Ask HN: How do you implement business rules for product assortments and tiers?
Hi,

Assume you have an application with bronze, silver, and gold "tiers" for which you charge $1, $2, and $3 respectively. Let's say you can click on one button with bronze, two buttons with silver, and three buttons with gold.

Do you hard-code these business rules, or do you use a rules-engine? What is your go-to way to implement things like trials, discounts, etc. in the product?

What is your go-to way to fragment all the features into a feature grid/matrix and grant/deny/limit/meter access to any given feature on the fly? Do you have successful examples using rules engines for that?

Thank you,
I was a little surprised (but, as a European, chuffed!) that this is launching on Ariane 5. I would have thought that Falcon 9 would be cheaper, and Atlas V would be preferred as a way of keeping it in-house. I believe they both have the capacity needed. Maybe Falcon 9 wasn't sufficiently proven when the deal was done, and Atlas V was more expensive?

I often feel like software engineering will be the last to go. Seems like it's easier to replace everyone else's jobs too with AI (like all the people who type things in spreadsheets all day).

I do see your point though to some degree. E.g. It's getting easier to make landing pages with no coding experience. At the same time though, landing pages get more complex requirements to stand out from the crowd. So there will always be room for customized software imo.

That being said, you could always make the AI that replaces your job now and let it run for 5 to 10 years or until they catch you
>How many people get objective 'long covid', by which I mean objectivly measurable decreased lung capacity or blood oxygenation levels

One of the scariest aspects of long covid is the neurological effects. It's hard to "objectively" measure things like "food tastes weird now" and "I'm exhausted all the time" or even "I can't focus like I used to" in a clinical setting without having done baseline tests pre-infection - yet these things will be obvious to the sufferer. Sometimes, in the absence of better data, you have to take people's word for it.

You are right that we need more data on long covid - it's inherently hard to study, and early data is frightening. Until we know more, caution is advisable.
Interesting, yes, the UV bleaching things might be a factor.

I am definitely glad to be gay. I think it allows me to see things from outside the bubble of "get a wife, be a defender, raise your children, stay strong and never cry, man up and if you can't provide, you're useless, you can't cry because men don't cry." that heterosexuality seems to favour (both men and women perpetuate this).

Men who fail to provide or "fit in" to their "role" in society become depressed, and then they kill themselves. :/

For me, the mainstream takeover of subcultures has always felt very superficial. The subcultures I've been a part of (Pen&Paper, LARP, early Internet, Gothic) have registered that the masses have taken elements as (often purely visual) tokens and this has often led to a "glut" of new people entering into the subculture, but this was usually not long lasting and was often mostly also purely superficial.

There were always people (and niches) in the depths in which one could feel comfortable. However - I must admit - it became harder to find these depths and to get through the superficiality. The niches have become even more self-isolated and it has become more difficult for newcomers with real interest to immerse themselves.

That's cool too. Of course I can also build those other ones myself (except all the nonfree vscode plugins that make it good of course).

This is all great, and makes it better (in my opinion) than stuff like Sublime or whatever.

Competing with something that's even more free though? That's going to be a challenge, and something would definitely have put me off of starting a business to sell this product.

I'll say what I said on the other thread -

If you want to present an argument against quarantine being needed or warranted, please go ahead. Checking in on the app is the least intrusive of the three options - quarantine under guard (usually in a hotel, like the one I'm in right now), quarantine at home with police visits tio ensure compliance, or quarantine at home checking in to the app once or twice a day.

In this context, getting hysterical about the least intrusive option is weird.

Remarkable is actually very open. Getting root access is as easy as going to the bottom of the About page to get the device's ip and its root password for SSH access.

But still, the hacking scene is far from big. There is no SDK. You can do things with QT but for a lot of use cases, you have to work directly with the screen capacities. e-ink screens are not good old framebuffer screens. If you want to have nice performance (like, instant note taking), you have to actually "draw" things on it.

You can draw things relatively fast on an e-ink device. But you can not draw a lot of things at the same time. That's why you have to wait maybe a full second between two pages of your book, but you can also have a blazing fast writing experience.

So the display paradigm is totally different compared to a classic screen and you can't just port existing apps. Well, you can, but it'll be without the "smart refresh" part. So it will be slow. If you want something usable, you have to think what and when to draw things on the screen.

Hence, few usefull apps exists on remarkable, because you have to build them from zero, with no real documentation, and to target a niche.

> But the letter of the law was that gambling occurs _in the jurisdiction where_ the random chance takes place

"where the random chance takes place" could easily be interpreted as where the random number is _used_ and not where it has been created. Creating random numbers is not "chance" per se (in this context). Using random numbers to e.g. determining a winner would be the chance in my opinion.
I often see people speak about requiring users to have JS enabled as a problem. But is that really an issue? I remember 5-10 years ago I would use things like no-script to disable javascript, and only enable on specific sites. But with the way modern frontends are, I would expect most website to not work at all if I disabled JS. So I would expect most users to have JS enabled anyway.

I can't remember the last time I created a website in a professional setting that would work without JS. Everything is written in things like React, Angular and Vue.js these days. And that seems to be the case for most modern websites. Atleast things made here in Oslo.
The study excludes the minority of young people who get severe breathing problems in the acute phase of the disease so your friend would not be included. The result just shows that the large majority that does not get severe breathing problems in the acute phase (in fact most young people do not get any symptoms at all) does not get long term lung damage.
The thing is that self-limiting thoughts and doubt don't help you. Are you good enough? Do you have what it takes? Is this minor failure a sign that you should give up? Will you ever get there? How do you know if you could even get there?

I would rephrase it: If you want to be good you need a lot of practice. The way to mastery is paved with failures. You need to invest a lot of time and energy before you can even begin to evaluate. Don't waste time on too early self-evaluation. Don't waste energy with useless doubt. Your body and brain are very adaptable much beyond what you normally experience.

In the end it's a balance of doing the things right and doing the right things.

I believe this is an official option, at least in WA where there is already an app, it's up to you which option to take.

AFAICT there is no "we're sick of visiting you, off to a quarantine centre" potential at all, effectively you're doing them a favour by using the app, the default would be police visits.

Unless you're found to have breached quarantine the conditions I guess. Not sure what happens then.
My point was “internal affairs” is just an arbitrary excuse.

Are you trying to justify China’s claim about the South China Sea and surrounding areas as “internal affairs” with that blog post?

Whether or not the Red Army will invade Eastern Europe with the excuse of “internal affairs” has nothing to do with my point.

To be honest, if China succeeds in invading Taiwan because of “internal affairs”, they will likely go after Japan and Vietnam next (perhaps with other excuses), even though none of them fell to the Mongol empire.

I’m don’t want a lengthy discussion about what will happen next. I was just pointing out the arbitrariness of “internal affairs”. Sorry if you couldn’t get my point.

I think that a second part of the issue comes from achieving mastery in creative fields, where there are no clear evaluative goal posts for what success looks like.

Talent certainly differentiates the top levels competitive environments when everything else is held equal. However, in these environments, I can see where deliberate practice can move someone who is less talented into the top nth percent of performers. They may not be among the best, buy they're close enough that someone who is untrained or less disciplined doesn't stand a chance against them. Given that the distribution of material rewards generally doesn't follow a winner takes all model, like what you see with sports, deliberate practice can should eventually create significant competitive and material advantages.

What happens, though, in creative fields such as writing, where engaging in deliberate practice doesn't necessarily improve your craft or your end product? A part of me questions whether the deliberate practice that many prospective writers, such as MFA students, do on a daily basis really helps them write a best seller - or even a quality literary work.

The same could also apply to tech startups. Would it be a good idea for early-stage entrepreneurs to do daily coding challenges? Or, over a long period of time, would they be better off trying to consistently create something that they then test on the market?
