Why is the limb brighter than the center in some images of the sun, and the other way around in other images? I’m guessing either wavelength dependancy or post-processing artistic choices, but I don’t know which and the article made me actually aware of my ignorance.

> `text-transform: newspaper` is nothing like Knuth-Plass

According to Bramstein, who seems to be the source for this claim, after he implemented K-P in browsers, he checked IE's 'newspaper' against his own implementation, and it delivered almost identical results: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5189258

>> I could be mistaken, but I'm fairly certain Internet Explorer implements the Knuth and Plass algorithm when using `text-justify: newspaper`. Unfortunately, I can't check because it isn't open source. The output however is pretty much identical to what my JavaScript version generates, so I'm inclined to believe it is the Knuth and Plass algorithm.
With their business model, a constant stream of new features is the only thing that pays the bills. Their paid tiers get the new features, and almost all of them eventually wind up in the open product. With a healthy IPO they should be resourced enough to put some extra hands on the backlog. +1 for prioritizing old tickets!

Can't really help you with parking in the red. That's on you, and something to look for parking anywhere in the country.

Curbing your tires is definitely something an out of towner wouldn't know, so I feel you on that. It has a decent reasoning, at least.

The real problem with public transit is that there are a bunch of routes that need multiple transfers and take 3x as long as by car (with none of the reliability). Most places will have parking within 2-3 blocks or garages, but yeah it's tough.
We need more light rail options instead of lower speeds. It’s hard to go fast in most city centers anyway.

Right, I certainly don't disagree with your analysis, but your recursive ripple effects all aren't caused by physical laws, they're caused by people refusing to work because they can't guarantee that other people in turn will work for them, which is all that money is- a representation of a guarantee in exchanged goods or services.

In a theoretical closed-loop 3-person model, the farmer grows, the doctor treats, and the builder builds. The farmer can feed the other two, the doctor can treat the other two, and the builder can build for the other two, and in a micro-community they don't really need to pay each other. As we increase the number of people participating, the likelihood that each person would choose to work without being paid drops. That's why we see such degradation in economically affected areas; everyone could just work all day cleaning up, patching up buildings, etc. but they don't, because no one's paying them to do so.

I am not naive enough to believe that any amount of propaganda or state control could fix the money problem, but I am frustrated to be willing to participate in such a theoretical economy with no outlet for it besides helping people in whatever free time I have.

Respectfully, this was in original comment:

Still, all of the above also gets applied to owned cars too. People use cars for multiple people; people slam doors, majority of personal cars have no garage, small issues and negligence.

Newer cars (rentals or not) have factory warranty, where service center takes care of minor issues without even asking.

I respect your opinion that rentals are bad than owned cars, other things like mileage same; but my opinion & experience is, people will be bad drivers, be it their own car or rental; & even bad drivers will be a bit more careful with a rental because chances of them paying for it immediately financially is more than paying for damages to their own car.

I expect the opposite. With self-driving cars the cost of an Uber drops significantly. Instead of more cars we will end up with less cars at higher utilization. Why would you personally own a car when Uber is 10x cheaper for all use cases of a personal vehicle?

It's an aggregator that allows you to pick from the other aggregators, and you don't pay until you pick up.

The prices are consistently within 10% of the lowest price that I can find online.

You fill out a simple form (pickup/dropoff times/location, car preference), and it emails you quotes. They don't spam me, which is nice.

I tend to request the same quote multiple times over the weeks before my trip. It'll frequently find you something for less than what you initially paid for.

Ignore their janky UI, it's the real deal.

Is Mathematics Invented or Discovered?|Nine Mind-Blowing Interviews
Actually, I missed something basic. Maybe it stood out to you, PaulHoule, as it made the 3rd and 4th approximations worse than is possible, but in any case...

The 2nd approximation was minimax, but then I made a non-minimax approximation out of a minimax one, to get rid of error at the end of the input value range. It would have been possible to do that in a minimax way instead, by changing (increasing) the input value range for the approximation. Doing it just enough would move the last place where the error drops down to zero outwards to the end of the old input value range. I didn't think of that earlier.
The software on ebook readers seems awful, and the responsiveness nihil. Years of upgraded models haven't changed this. Reading PDFs was borderline impossible because in addition to being slow, my device didn't even cache the previous/next page... Even though there is ample time to do so while you are reading.

The fact that it didn't occur to anyone involved to do so should be all you need to know to avoid the entire product category.

In a parallel universe, a company would've treated e-ink as a medium in its own right instead of as a webkit front end. They made the same mistake that html/css did: locking in the capabilities before they understood what people needed it to do.

Hey, I know this is quite far downthread and didn’t get much attention - and there’s a 92% chance you won’t even see this comment due to HN’s bizarre lack of any adequate notification mechanism - but I just wanted to say I really appreciate your writing this. This crystallises a lot of thoughts I have about that kind of ‘selective pyrrhonism’, where positions one agrees with can be justified with only vague hunches (or defining your position as the null hypothesis: e.g. we default for no clear reason to assuming Amazon’s benevolence), but people who disagree are demanded to give preposterously specific evidence.
first, sorry for implying that you might be toxic! that's toxic for me to do, you might be a lovely person and i have no idea.

my main point is: contrarian ideas are relative and subjective to whatever circles you're in. i might be considered as somebody with contrarian ideas relative to my surroundings in the american south, but i don't think of my ideas as contrarian. i think self-proclaimed contrarians suffer from something sort of dunning-kruger like condition, where they take the seemingly contrarian stance just to be different. it's similar to the idea that there are no original or novel ideas, and those who think they have an original idea are wrong.

of course, there is always an exception!

and to your points:

- "Contemporary feminism hurts most women and encourages relationship-sabotaging behavior." sounds like you've been hurt in a relationship and blame it on feminism. if that's the case, i'm genuinely sorry it turned out that way for you.

- "The narrative that the US and other Western nations' participation in white supremacy and slavery/colonialism is the main societal influence today is overblown and is likely leading to unnecessary political violence and turmoil." as a student of southern history and politics, i have to respectfully disagree. you should read the book "forever free" by eric foner to understand how reconstruction after the civil war shapes our world today. or at least seek out some understanding of the history of reconstruction in america, to see how white supremacy has been used as a source of power.

- "I don't think abortions should be banned, but generally speaking, it is incredibly easy to not get pregnant. Don't have sex. Unless you were raped, no one is 'forcing' anything on you, those were your decisions. It is baffling to me that no one says this out loud." - that's just ignorant. sex is a natural thing that everybody does, especially when they're bored.

- "There are only two genders." meh. heard this one a lot. not contrarian at all. you're getting "contrarian" mixed up with "controversial".

- "Kyle Rittenhouse acted in legitimate self-defense. The popular understanding of the case is beset with misinformation about what happened." i had to google "kyle rittenhouse" because i forgot who he is. i'd argue that you're just as influenced by media as anybody else, and your opinion on this is probably influenced by the media you consume. i don't know enough about the incident to have an informed opinion, but if i remember correctly, the dude drove out of state to be in the middle of the drama (masquerading as a vigilante), and then walked up on some protestors with an assault weapon. that screams "i'm ready to fight".

my email is in my bio if you wish to talk more. i love a healthy debate but also need to work too. i won't snitch on you with your employer!
Arguably the most popular filetype stored with a rails app is images, but ActiveStorage didn't even support CDNs. 3rd party gems like CarrierWave supported CDNs do.

Instead of adding exactly what gems you need, rails forces you to jump through hoops to removed bloatware (ActiveText, ActiveCable, ActiveStorage).

Moving off of the rails asset pipeline to webpack was silly. If you're running a SPA, you should have a fully separated web-app and tooling stream instead of trying to merge your backend and frontends. For server side rendering, asset pipeline was good enough IMHO.

ActiveText doesn't even support CRDTs. Otherwise it doesn't really add much value to advanced text editor eco-systems.

The change logs are either adding bloatware that only Basecamp asked for, bug fixes, or security patches.

> And i think mentioning ML points in a direction that you don't know much about normal web development since for 99% of web things you don't need any ML at all.

This sounds like someone that has either only worked with webapps with very few users and not at big tech scale. You can get away with not using ML in b2b products with 5 customers, but at some point you will need to add ML to scale.
I also picked up a car this year, after 11 years of not owning one.

Uber and Lyft still sucking so hard into this year was the catalyst.

I have been using it for a couple months. You are very correct. I guess when are as open as they are it kind of gets lost in translation. Hopefully becoming a shareholder in a truly public company is the push for us to fix these kinds of issues.
A car is usually pretty optional for most places in Europe. Some natural areas like the Alps have better public transit than most US city centers. Not everywhere is as allergic to public transit as most of the US.

SF is also one of the better US cities in this regard. I spent several months in SF without a car and rented a car exactly one weekend to get to some further out hiking. There are actually plenty of transit accessible natural areas.

> Far more productive, is going to YouTube for something SPECIFIC. Use the search function to find what you're looking for, and watch those videos, but never use the homepage or sidebar recommendations

I've found myself doing this more recently, but I also like exploring. I think my goal is to not start from recommendations, but a specific curiosity, and roll from there.

Then again, there are plenty of creators that will bring me things I never even thought to consider. 3blue1brown was mentioned in the article, and I have notifications turned on for them because I know for a fact I will watch the entire video.
That is what we call "pushing an agenda". It is awfully tiresome. Seriously "forced" when what they describe is gaming of the system. It is downright disingenuous and it is goddamned everywhere from media conglomerates. They always do the same goddamn thing, treat their advertisers and politicians in power with kid gloves for funds and access. But when it comes to rivals it is suddenly knives out full Jameson demanding pictures of Spiderman.

I don't even like Facebook as a company and never used it but I find myself defending because it is such obvious complete bullcrap.
In certain states you will owe the sales tax on the entire residual amount. This tax is skipped when you let the dealer assume the buyout. But in the past 6-12 months some banks are adding massive amounts to the buyout price when the owner isn't the one making the purchase.

When you read the fine print, the residual value only applies to the owner. The bank can charge whatever it wants to everyone else, or deny the purchase altogether.

Reverb is pretty simple, it's the "echo" of a sound without the repetition side of it (also called an impulse response). If you have multiple sounds from different recordings, mixing them together with a single reverb effect creates a sense of space around the sounds.

Then, to control the amplitude of the overlapping recordings, it would be wise to run it into a compressor. It's a little hard to explain how it works, so it's probably a better idea to link to a YouTube video[0] instead. The basic gist is that it brings sounds together, reducing the range between their loudest and quietest points (colloquially known as 'dynamic range').

Finally, a peak limiter is a more extreme version of a compressor that prevents a signal from becoming too loud and risking damage to your audio equipment. It's mostly a safety net, but it's a very necessary one when you start toying with dynamic range.

Hope this was able to help!

You can't just magically disappear the complexity that is inherent to building actual applications. Synchronizing data based on unique IDs isn't special. At best this is an interesting prototyping tool and at worst this is a huge red flag for your understanding of actual web development.

It's a misallocation of resources for the state to try to save adults who don't want saving. If a drug addict doesn't specifically request help to beat their addiction, it would be simpler and cheaper for the legal system to give them as much of the drug as they want. They'll either become functional addicts or just finish their slow-motion suicides. Either is less wasteful than forcing them into rehab or incarceration.
