I don't have enough context here. The first search result I found disputes claims of post-Katrina New Orleans schools doing better than similar cities[0], but maybe that's a biased sounce.

Do you have some links and maybe some elaboration on the point you're trying to make? From my short reading, it sounds like the narrative is that the disaster gave both sides the political cover they needed to make the concessions they've long known they needed, and allowed effective reform to happen. Is that what you're suggesting?

I'm not talking about anti-trust per se, even though i think egregious cases still deserve serious punishment.

I mean shitshows like Boeing, Equifax and similar. Where the company showed blatant disregard for safety and security, and it was really not a single person making a mistake, but big parts of the entity being rotten to the core. For such things, the executives should face consequences in the form of a combination of: go to prison for some time, face heavy fines against their personal wealth ( ideally proportional), and have bans on leading any commercial for some time afterwards.

The incentives are all wrong for everything below fraud ( Enron level). Boeing got away with literally manslaughter through criminal negligence, and what consequences where there? The CEO got a golden parachute, and a chief pilot got thrown under the bus. That will make them learn their lesson, right?
>Worried you'll get called a racist for suggesting an anti racist is wrong?

That's a reasonable worry in these days.
I find this author's semi-outrage amusing. Oh, what a world of deception your virgin senses have yet to comprehend.

The deceptive loading bar has a loooong history through a solid two decades of early MacOS and Windows.

I honestly think the early status bars are the subconscious inspriation for the software estimation joke about the first 90% of code takes the first 90% of budget, the last 10& take the other 90%
True, but would there be an 8chan if there wasn't a /pol/?

I forgot to mention that on the other end of the spectrum, a good amount of (extremely online) American leftist culture ("the Dirtbag Left") is also linked to Something Awful, the Chapo Trap House three were either from SA or from the Weird Twitter subculture descended from SA's FYAD subforum.
Yep. Even ignoring non-Jewish victims, majority of holocaust victims were foreign Jews and not Germans of Jewish descent. Mostly because Europe and Africa as a whole had more Jews then Germany itself.

Ignoring Jews, Germans were more ruthless and murderous toward Polish or Russian people then toward western ones. And they much more ruthless and murderous toward western then toward Germans themself. (And yes they were ruthless and murderous toward German population too.)
From what they said it is to protect creators as groups go around creating games to dislike different small creator videos.
If this is what powers Facebook workplace (or whatever it is called), don't get too enthusiastic:

From my minimal use of it I've seen one case of praise being translated to an insult[1] and one which was just hilariously funny.

[1]: For those who understand Norwegian: "gjere stas på en kunder" became "make fun of customers", i.e. the almost exact opposite.

"morgenstund har gull i munn" was translated to "early bird has gold in its mouth" which is just weird.
Perhaps odd, but I've had the opposite experience.

I switched to Thunderbird at the same time I switched to Linux; after some tweaking, I was mostly happy with it.

Then, in some major version, it started frequently freezing up for thirty seconds at a time. Authoring emails in it became impossible. I could not downgrade it because it was version-locked with some system libraries (libnss OSLT). I could not debug it because that was blocked by a bug filed on Bugzilla ten years ago with no fixes or workarounds.

Then, in another major version, they killed XUL extensions.

I still hope to stop depending on Google services some day, but at that point I would probably switch to or write some webmail with a similar-enough UI to Gmail.
a lot of EU propaganda videos like illegal immigrants or climate got a lot of dislikes. First they played the Russian Card but as that general public did not accept this they now hide the dislikes because they want to force people to like climate actions and welcome immigrants.

In EU we copy most stupid things US is doing but none of the good things US is doing. So I do care.
We use node.js and the cold start times are negligible.
Java, C# and docker based lambdas have problems with cold start times but we do not suffer from them.
We also use JAMstack and our html pages are statically generated in advance with Cloudfront CDN in front.
We use Lambda for the backend REST JSON APIs.
Wasn't the company based on lies and fraudulent activities? I remember hearing about it a few months ago. It doesn't look good for a language to be associated with such a company.
How does it manage that? Crowdsourcing?
You can also firejail programs on Linux and so forth.

Well, we can be reasonably confident their assets will not be worth $2T if they have to fire sale them
Certainly there wouldn't be an 8chan/8kun without 4chan /pol/. Simlpy pointing out that it's another newer branch on the SA family tree, one with its own distinct culture and character. As an object of study, I find it interesting as the embodiment of "stuff that's too much for /pol/" in the same way that /pol/ was "stuff that's too much for the rest of 4chan," and 4chan was "stuff that's too much for SA."

>They don't have to care to laugh at us for dumbing down our kids.

Why laugh? I guess they will be glad they will winning the competition. If anything, they will encourage the US to continue on the same path, they'll might even praise it.
So is the progress bar on GitHub and many webpages. I think in most sites, users aren't interested in how much it's loaded but rather in the fact that it's loading at all (note that this doesn't apply to all progress bars).

Implementing a fake progress bar can be done once and it works everywhere, but a controlled progress bar that's accurate needs to be connected to some actual progress data, and this is engineering work for questionable results.
Do you have any links? I've looked and not found any, but happy to hear there are alternatives.

I always thought spaces are either tabs or spaces. Wym 2px indents? Also Flutter is a framework based on dart. Its like saying Django doesn’t support braces instead of indent based syntax. Its how language decided it works no cancer there.

Also even I was sceptical about google cemetery. But at this point flutter is widely used and is fully open source and licenses.
It will not drop dead like Google services. May be no more bugfixes after its final release.
Nice article. Unfortunately there is a limitation to this way of thinking in my daily business - the WAF ;-)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wife_acceptance_factor

Luckily the articles' principle doesn't only apply to building furniture.

Edit - Clarification:

This comment describes only my personal situation and should in no way harm anyone. It is a satiric way of stating out that if you are not alone in your apartment you have to

1. Respect others feelings when rearranging your stuff or putting new things in
2. Regard the importance to build something aesthetical / beautiful rather than only useful

I would love to see the author having emphasized these two aspects.
A Doom House!?
Progress bars are like project managers. They try to provide realistic perspectives on what's going on, but at the end of the day they only have a vague understanding of what's happening and how much work is left.

"eliminating or eradicating the virus in the U.S."

I sincerely didn't imagine anyone still thought this was feasible. Is this really still an aspiration that can be offered with a straight face?

Defunct indeed. That was just me being defensive, and the video makes it very clear just how defunct/debunked the theory is. Thanks!
No, because if the US had a better voting system it would also require voter ID for example

(Or at least, once per upstream update.)

There are enough antivaxers that I think those hopes have been dashed already.
I wouldn't necessarily say that it was the worst video, but the response to it was a response to YouTube's general direction, in my opinion.

> Generally you don't want to shoot anyone if you weren't in the immediate vicinity of the conflict.

You hear noise, and see someone(A) shoot another person(B) 50 meters away from you. You're a good person(C), you take out your personal gun and approach. A sees a new threat approaching with a weapon, prepares to defend themselves, and turns their gun towards C. C sees a gunman who just shot B, turn their weapon on them. What does C do? Point their gun to avoid getting shot seems like a common scenario in the heat of the moment, adrenaline and all that.

It really doesn't seem to me that there's anything even close to some sort of standard for minimum training to own a gun in the US (unlike in probably all other developed countries). So it will all depend on the will of the owner to train themselves. What could possibly go wrong?

Heck, isn't it similar to what happened with that Kyle guy?
The funny thing is… if you are using gmail app on your phone, you don’t use webmail, because webmail is indeed too janky and bloated for phones, and native is just faster.
A lot of mainstream media sites have removed comments sections from their articles, there's no user interaction left on those.
One thing I haven’t figured out is why Gmail’s performance is so bad in Firefox. It feels like it takes noticeably longer to load and to perform actions compared to Chrome. For example, if you take some action and immediately try to close the tab, you’ll get a pop-up warning about an action that may not be saved if you leave the page. That doesn’t happen on Chrome. But I find it hard to believe that this is some shortcoming of Firefox versus a fault of Google’s. Anyone know what’s going on?
Aren't the influenca virus types non-reservoired (except type a). And they still come back every season. I don't think a reservoir will make that much of a difference.

If I use a dislike button on a platform, it is typically because I want to warn other users away from that content, because its irrelevant, misleading, uninteresting etc. If likes and dislikes are primarily tools for personalising the algorithm to your taste then the platform may as well hide likes from public view as well.
Depends on what you need. Some wheelchair users can stand and walk short distances, so they'd just need trunk space. Others can transfer independently, others still can't leave their chairs without expensive lifts.

So it can really range from needing a bit of help to needing a special vehicle.
I think 'genius' is a relative term.
All progress bars are like this nowadays. At least for fast jobs (seconds to minute) where estimating time is hard, unreliable, and probably useless.

Better fake a progress bar than add dozens of time estimation code for no real value, as long as errors are managed.

The only thing you should try to manage is to detect when things are stuck for real and stop the fake animation / manage the situation. But even this is hard.

But all of this is just exploiting a psychological gimmick which make you feel than an animation with a predictable end feels to end faster than, say, some spinner.
On a related note, this is one of the joys of using Fastmail: it's actually blazing fast, not just on desktop but also on mobile. It's probably the best web app I've ever used in terms of UX.
I have an automatic negative reaction to fact checks. As soon as I see one, I feel defensive against Facebook telling me what to believe.

I try to be a reasonable person, and not let what Facebook says or doesn't say affect what I believe. But not everyone is reasonable or has critical thinking abilities.

Facebook isn't exactly an entity that people trust. I think for many people, their fact checks could backfire.
Since deer do nothing to stop the virus, maybe natural selection will evolve a more benign version among them?
I've been reading them continuously for years. The EU's position on shopping sites has never made any kind of sense to me and came across strongly as a pretext. In particular, if I recall correctly, the sites that complained to the EU and started this whole process turned out to be quasi-front companies of various kinds that had never made a real attempt to compete at all.

But this is really all part of a pattern. The EU's cases and laws against tech are always based on super weak rationales. I'm long since past the point of seeing this as a simple form of extraction-ism, and I'm European and live in Europe.
> How do you make your commit history clean and reviewable when submitting a PR?

I've seen cases where people don't care in the slightest about the list of commits in any PR/MR, but instead just look at the diff view to see the code changes.

At least that's how it's been in every single project that i've ever been a part of. Most also don't use rebasing at all and don't do squashing commits into a single one for that particular PR/MR either.

That said, there is probably merit to using rebase and squashing as well, though many fail to see it or gain anything useful from it.
> Perhaps for people who don't have a "hack the world!" mindset, it does appear as genius I suppose.

That's just a turn of style.

With that being said perhaps there's something in common between the stereotypes of hackers and genius, and that's not flattering I suppose.
It's safe enough as it has a smoke point of 193..210°C. But then again deep frying food is not that great for health. I usually add water or sauce to prevent oil from reaching those temperatures and smoking, I believe the term is sautéing. For deep frying I'd rather use refined sunflower oil or rice bran oil since they have a higher smoke point of 232°C, neutral taste, they're low in saturated fats (13..20%) and they're more affordable. You can also use lard or tallow if you can tolerate them, though they're higher in saturated fats (40%). Fried potatoes taste better and have a softer texture when fried in lard. Anyway, don't take my word for it on deep frying, as we almost never deep fry anything.

Interesting that the idea of a Spike protein that is so disruptive, so that the authors of the original article seem to claim that it would be safer to avoid its complete form in vaccines (though the notion that the molecule should not leave the site of injection unless something goes very wrong should put the risks in a relative context), somehow begs to be confronted with the also very recent study with a divulgation article in Nature,

How protein-based Covid vaccines could change the pandemic, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29167908 ,

stating that protein-based Covid vaccines compratively have significantly less side effects and dramatically less severe adverse events associated. Because, while all current relevant vaccines of widespread use are "Spike based", some products in the "subproteic unit" class seem to have tweaked it more. One wonders (the layman wonders) if the use (in some products) of fragments only of the Spike (mentioned in the article) is a cause. (One also wonders how the effects of the Spike can be so relevant if the condition holds that it does not leave the injection site.)
Again, another language that doesn't say, front and centre, why it exists and what problems it tries to address.

Please, please, tell us what this language is for and why we should use it. "Pretty" syntax isn't it.

The abstract of the linked paper talks about soil liquefaction in earthquakes and its effect on distribution networks within a city.

It doesn't appear to have anything to do with long-distance cables or the movement of tectonic plates (except implicitly as a major cause of earthquakes).
People are literally maintaining forks for this small change. I'd say there is a demand.

This kind of hand-wavy "all patched have a maintenance cost" and "just adjust your workflow" is why people dislike Gnome/GTK. Call me strange, but it has always seemed to me that software should adjust to the human, and not the other way around.

And in this specific case, it's also not even true since they explicitly disable the default behaviour for the file browser and then plug in their new behaviour. The patch to disable that is trivial, so "maintenance cost" is not only hand-wavy, it's also simply not true.

Also see a previous write-up I did on another Gnome issue that's a really bad look for the Gnome folks: https://lobste.rs/s/ky5yop/gnome_has_no_thumbnails_file_pick...
YouTube knows how someone arrived at a video - if they wanted to, they could only count likes and dislikes from people who had the content recommended to them. Or they could drop likes/dislikes from incomplete views. Actually I think they already do that, I recall reading something to that effect years ago.

It's all irrelevant anyway - their stated justification puts "harassment" first. Given the poisonous cancel culture that exists inside Google it's very obvious what their real motives are and the rest is thus all open to question. If it was 10 years ago Google's only justification for this sort of change would have been to improve the utility of the site, and we'd have believed it because that'd have been consistent with their other actions. In 2021? Not so much.
The psychology of these versus, for example, an infinite spinner strikes me as interesting. The loading bar, even though it's fake, has an end and makes it feel like you're getting closer to the wait being over.

Works for me.
Wow. I didn't realise things were that bad. I stopped trying out other DEs years ago. I quit KDE after the v4 trash fire (2008), quit Gnome after v3 (2011) and had a year long affair with Openbox (nice, but needs too much work to get basics working). I settled down with XFCE about 7 years ago and never looked back (or forward). Nothing is perfect, but at least XFCE doesn't wreck my flow after an upgrade, and I can script most things I care about and attach them to keyboard shortcuts or triggers.
