One popular explanation is usually the scarcity of educational resources in China. In China, you work really hard so that you can out-exam the other students so that you can get into some decent college. The gist is that China has limited higher-educational resource (so graduates on average do not come out that well) and a large population base (so people really need to work hard to fight for the little resource).

Given how overbooked the port of LA is (to the point where Chinese sea-vessels are going to the _EAST_ coast in hopes of actually delivering their payloads), freight rail between China and the USA is an obvious benefit to both countries.
I just got a fraudulent email from someone impersonating my bank about small changes to the terms of service, but all of the links appear legitimate. No phone numbers either. I guess this is some sort of long-con to get me to trust the email address? It ended in the legitimate domain name of the bank.
It's true. What I don't get is the reluctance to seek out learning opportunities. They won't watch a video, attend a class, read a book, none of that. It's like picking up a hobby if you're computer illiterate. They spend all the money on the device and expect what exactly? Yet if they bought a DSLR they would know it's a hobby and they need to learn a thing or two. They'd invest in learning like people do with any hobby.
You’re right - Many thanks for the clarification.
Something that seemed somewhat implicit in this article, but never fully stated, is that it also increases the quality of the work, or in other words, decreases the probability of bugs and errors. Every time you do a manual process, you introduce the possibility for a lot of human error. That's where a lot of the "willingness" vs. "unwillingness" comes in (aside from just the "time" aspect, or partially as a cause of the "time" aspect). The more boring the task, the more likely you are to sleepwalk through it and not be thorough in checking things. This leads to bugs, and can either (ideally) increase the time of the task since they immediately surface and then you are "shaken awake" and have to dig around for what you mistyped, or in the worst case, go in undetected. Like everything computers do, and kind of the whole point of programming, a script can go into the task with the same "willingness" every time. That weird edge case you found when you did the task the first time when it was still interesting can get coded in and checked for. Future weird bugs can then be trivially added to the automation script vs. just noted as a "WARNING" in a README that will never get read. If there's no existing tool, then the activation energy to create that tool just to account for that weird thing that happened that one time is always beyond the "fuck it, let's just make a note" boundary. As such, it's best to just bite the bullet in the beginning. The unfortunate thing is that this is really a indictment of our workflows in general. Much of what we do is so close to programming as it is, it sucks that "putting it into a literal program" can be such a chore (and it very much is).
Except that combining them causes the side effect of sending everything to a third party, rather than just what they are willing to give them. Does the search provider really need to know what url you wanted to go to? Especially given that most of them are greedily saving that information in order to better convince you to buy something you don't want or need at the behest of someone else.

Maybe instead of "which box should they type into" we should be asking why the url interface is a simple text box to begin with.
What's wrong with saying someone's "done SEO" if everyone at the table has the context for what that entails?

Content strategy, keyword research, Search Console integration, site speed improvements, local search business profiles -- all of these contribute to SEO. It's unwieldy to talk about them all, so sometimes people can use a shorthand.
I LOVE this stuff. After reading the article it's not more clear, but my mind has more tinder to kindle it's imagination.

I think this is correct. Turning the steering wheel never randomly creates a bunch of new problems for the user that they don't understand. It works the same way every time over the course of the user's entire life. I've probably made millions of turns of a steering wheel and all it's ever done is turn the wheels.

The "learned helplessness" here is on us, not the users.

This. I had a similar situation to the GP poster-- years of used oil piled up in jugs in the garage. One trip to a local parts store and the issue was resolved. It was shockingly easy.
> The country is the global epicentre for such attacks

Oh dear. So the country is the location several Km underground, that is the centre of the attacks?

Why has every centre turned into an epicentre? Is "epicentre" easier to understand then "centre"?
No, I really won't, because I don't flagrantly violate Twitter and Facebook ToS day to day.
I don't agree that that view is correct. Perceived self and perceived reality are abstractions, but that doesn't mean they aren't real. Also I'm a compatibilist, meaning that I think that free will arises from and within determinism. At any rate, how can you tell anyone "what they are"? That's a subjective categorization; it can be useful or useless, but I don't know how it can be mistaken even in principle.

My consciousness isn't the (only) thing that thinks or makes decisions, but I am more than my consciousness. My consciousness is just a part of the system that I view as my self.
Seconding that. It’s the one reason I never started using webpack in the first place, at least not from scratch.

I sincerely believe these instances were cherry picked. If such things happened regularly, it would have made an awful amount of noise in an otherwise law abiding society. Mixed raced (hafu) children do get more bullying from anecdotal evidence, but that is more of name calling or poking some fun at visual attribute. My knowledge about the situation is limited to Tokyo & Osaka, but that is pretty much where most of the foreigners/ mixed race families are to be found.
If you are looking to dip your toe in and have a tinker with BSD, FreeBSD is probably the best place to start because it has spread of compatibility.

But if you are looking for more focused projects, then Dragonfly for best out of box desktop experience, openbsd for security and firewall, and netbsd for compatibility and portability across loads of devices.
Why would they? They are interested in reminding the workers who the boss is, who fires who for any reason, and who tells you what to put into your body if you want to put bread on your table.

The shareholders should fire every single person who is pushing these policies, if they want to retain their best talent. Why are flight attendants being treated like pets or animals while some fat cat boss on an island somewhere sips on expensive wine and laughs?
Importing foreigners isn't a solution, and besides, they become infertile too (within a few generations) if they adopt the local culture.
Blizzard claiming ownership of every mod and custom map created for their games
Unsurprising, I'm pretty critical of HN and they don't like that very much
Wasn’t there a headline were it said apple made more on games than Nintendo, Sony, blizzard etc. together. Apple is already on top of the gaming market.
You pay $800 and you get your value. The market obviously decided that the value provided is good enough, since their sales are good. Just because you value certain things doesn't mean the collective does.
Yes, Windows uses it for suspending discrete GPUs on laptops to save on power, for designs like surface book, for external GPUs and some more server scenarios.
This is great.

Highly unlikely, but maybe Apple could release some gems from the Shake code base into the Blender compositor?
Yes and it's precisely because futures and forward contracts are being used that is possible. If it wasn't then market uncertainty and fluctuations in the economy would be more instantly reflected in prices of the end user products consuming those commodities. With hedging now you can focus on margin and operations which is the whole point of your business, not predicting the global economy.
Alden buys newspapers, jacks up the subscriptions prices, slowly cuts staff and other costs, and milks the profits as long as possible. Classic corporate raider playbook.
It doesn't matter what the US/Japan/Europe are doing population wise.

The big issue with the future is that China and India was to be first world countries with first world luxuries.

India is currently 1.3 billion people and still growing 1-2% per year.

China is currently 1.4 billion people. Still growing .3% per year (US is .4%)

Dismissing first world population growth as "just being overflow" / immigration ignores the fact that people that immigrate to the US will quickly start consuming resources like an American.

Population growth doesn't matter that much. What really matters is the resource consumption rates of the population.

The environmental future is basically a conflict between India and China aspiring to Western resource consumption rates and luxury, and us praying they figure out how to do it sustainably.

Otherwise: WAR.

I think you have a mistake in your aleph-one summary, if I recall correctly aleph-zero is the cardinality of countably infinite set (like natural numbers), and aleph-one is for uncountably infinite sets. It's been a while though so I may be misremembering.

Because of the opaqueness of the electrical infrastructure, it's not precise of these carbon fiber footprint measurements, because the data is simply not there.

Therefore, a better measurement is just the electric usage...

Indeed, ECS might not be a good fit for turn-based games.

We explored the topic quite thoroughly in [0] and came to the conclusion that Roguelikes are more suited for something in-between ECS and OO, named just "EC".

ECS is better suited to real-time games, or games which have a lot of iteration over large arrays and parallel (not as in multi-threading, but as in, batchable) computations, where ECS can really shine due to its data layout. Most turn-based games like roguelikes don't iterate over large arrays in the same way.

With EC on the other hand, you're a little more free to group components into their parent entity, and use interfaces (traits), which can make things more understandable.

Whether idiomatic Rust likes EC is an open question though. Idiomatic Rust tends to dislike heap allocation and virtual dispatch, both which can make life a lot easier for Roguelike games, which tend to prioritize flexibility and features, and don't need the data-oriented optimization.

Additionally, a lot of people suggest using ECS in Rust because that's the only architecture that the borrow checker doesn't fight you in, for various reasons.

That isn't true. If a country makes a habit of printing too much money, then creditors will start to insist on only loaning it money denominated in other currencies. And once it starts doing that, the country can be forced to actually default on its debts:

It's very important to note that nobody grounded the plane before the second accident, so it's not like the FAA was standing alone in allowing the plane to fly after the first accident. They get criticized for taking three days to ground the plane after the second accident, but you could also argue that the other regulators had a knee-jerk reaction without sufficient data.
There are referrals and there are referrals. One is basically a a lead generation product for internal recruiters - internal referral bonuses at the like. The other is a professional and social relationship - a mutual connection recommending a particular person to a hiring manager. The latter doesn't need any financial mechanic to work - the costs and benefits to the referrer are measured in credibility and reputation.

The former already carries substantial financial rewards at most companies. This product seems to be aimed at making that kind carry more weight by adding a downside cost to the (effectively) anonymous referrer, _reducing_ the incentive to stuff the queue.

To me, it feels like the 'crypto to let strangers borrow your stuff' thing that was on here a few days ago. Attempting to replicate a social cost/benefit structure with financial products doesn't really work, and the implied equation of the two rubs a lot of people the wrong way, as seen here.
The title suggests an irony that isn't present. The change in policy was immediately leaked, but the policy was designed to keep the discussions on those boards from leaking (rather than the policy itself).

We pretty much only got the Moscow State Circus from Russia during the cold war nominally. But that very well could have improved relations just enough to prevent a nuclear war.

Remember: the reason Kyoto wasn't nuked was because one general had a honeymoon in Kyoto. He put forth the idea that Kyoto (despite being a valid military target), was the cultural center of Japan, and nuking it would prevent the war from ever ending. Japan (probably) would never forgive us, and he proposed Hiroshima ... an important city but less culturally relevant than Kyoto.

That kind of thinking is needed in a hypothetical war. Even if you're 100% warmonger with China, the benefits of open dialog and open trade are huge.

I'm not naive enough to think that trade prevents wars. But there is a "soothing" effect of trade for sure.

"The policy originally enacted from 1984 to 1993 spoke to abortion only, not family planning in general. However, in 2001, the policy was re-implemented and expanded to cover all voluntary family planning activities, and critics began to refer to it as the "global gag rule." These critics argue that the policy not only reduces the overall funding provided to particular NGOs, it closes off their access to USAID-supplied condoms and other forms of contraception. This, they argue, negatively impacts the ability of these NGOs to distribute birth control, leading to a downturn in contraceptive use and from there to an increase in the rates of unintended pregnancies and abortion. A study of nations in sub-Saharan Africa suggests that unintended pregnancies increased and abortions approximately doubled while the policy was in effect. Critics also argue that the ban promotes restrictions on free speech as well as restrictions on accurate medical information. The European Parliamentary Forum on Population and Development presented a petition to the United States Congress signed by 233 members condemning the policy. The forum has stated that the policy "undermines internationally agreed consensus and goals"."

The global gag rule is enforced by Republican administrations and rescinded by Democratic ones. Infer from that what you will.

For OpenRCT2 thats not quite how we did it. We didn't use IDA decomp output as its useless with Chris Sawyer calling conventions you had to just read the assembly. We did name things as per IDA when things were completely unknown hence why there was lots of sub_XXXX functions and byte_XXXX. I personally just used OllyDbg and read the assembly and wrote equivalent C code. I've a few videos of implementing functions for OpenRCT2 and OpenLoco if you are interested.

> (Ideally, tech-savvy people will type f and see no signs of facebook whatsoever, but that's an orthogonal issue.)

I'm tech-savvy and I use Facebook all the time. :-P

Going off-topic here, but outside of Facebook's issues with privacy, I think Facebook is a fine platform. Most of the issues people have with Facebook (again, ignoring the privacy issues) are self-inflicted. You have a racist uncle and don't want to see his bigotry in your feed? Unfollow him. Or in my case, just unfriend him entirely. You want to follow your government representatives to see what's on their mind? Great, just don't engage with the morons in the comment section.

Facebook is a great way to keep up with what your friends are up to. A friend of mine recently went on a trip to Scotland, and I enjoyed his posts on what he was doing. When I got married, it was an easy way to share the photos, since nobody uses Flickr these days.
Muting words on Twitter gives you a much better experience. I muted a lot of conspiranoid words in the last 18 months.

Legit question: What’s the main difference between this and using cmd-f search built into the browse? Other than the fact it’s one less key press to use, which in itself honestly does sound pretty nice. (Since the home page even brings up autohide with the ability to use that keyboard shortcut to open it deliberately, which is normally used by the browser itself)
Ask HN: What tool do you use to build a landing page?
Hello, I want to build a SaaS landing page to know if there is any online traction. I would like to build it quickly and iterate easily.

I'm a tech guy so if I was only listening to myself I would build it 100% with code but my gut feeling is saying that this is wrong.

So what would you suggest, and why?

- 100% code from scratch

- Code but using a template

- Mixed between code and no code

- 100% No code

- Other?

Thank you :)

My own process is to write a ton of text, then start revising it downward in size. Delete/Undelete, Copy/Paste all get a tonne of workout as time progresses. Many times, I get fairly far along, and then just abandon the post.

It's not slow, unless you don't see the details. I wonder how true this is for others.

Look at all the software that is available for MacOS that is not available for iOS.

> Don't we all have memories of looking at a relatives computer and finding half a dozen browser toolbars and some mysterious impossible-to-uninstall programs running on startup?

No one is suggesting running Windows 98 and IE 6 on phones. It's weird, we literally have an apple-to-apple comparison with MacOS and iOS and instead we're dredging up a straw man of old software designed to be insecure.
All the content is still plainly visible with no extra clicks or screens. In the standard interface I often miss hackernews comment rankings unless they are highly negative (causing the comment to be grey).

The comments are also broadly divided by topic (the post itself) whereas a facebook feed is a firehose of 'anything that might engage the user'.

These two facts alone heavily dispute your argument in my opinion.
