The issue is that folks who are taking ivermectin are doing it in lieu of getting vaccinated. If you get vaccinated and want to take ivermectin for the heck of it, no one is going to stop you. But if you claim that ivermectin is a miracle cure for covid and as such vaccines are no longer necessary, then that is a problem.

If you're going to be doing things like

Then you may as well just do

I used to enjoy growing crystals when I was a kid. It's a good indoor activity for the winter.

Plain white sugar is also interesting. Alum (used to make pickles, can often be found in the herb and spice aisle at the store) makes neat crystals.

If your kids are old enough to be trusted not to eat the experiments, copper sulfate (used to kill roots that are growing into sewer lines) makes beautiful crystals. It can be found at Home Depot-type stores.

Edit: I see this author has a link to another article on growing copper sulfate crystals down at the bottom of this article. Recommended!
Really neat, that's the kind of stuff I always wanted someone to build.
I think a marketplace of workflows would be a great next step, so that you can have someone else maintaining the flows.

I build tons of scraper and things that pretend to be browser (handcoded, not recorded from the browser - but lighter than spinning up a real browser) and the harder bit is keeping the flows maintained. Some websites are particularly annoying to work with because of random captchas jumping in your face but it's something you can handle by coding support for the captcha in the flow and presenting a real user the captcha.

One problem of logging in the cloud is IP checks. You may be asked to confirm.

If you want to look into this issues I'd recommend scraping yandex for dealing with captchas being thrown in your face and authed google or facebook for IP restrictions, weird authentication requests.

Again, I think a marketplace could outsource these problems to a community of developers maintaining flows.

Security could be another concern, but you always have the option of running things locally.
Deno is sandboxed by default and doesn't allow disk or network access, which is ideal for configuration.

Correct. As an undergraduate in the 90s when OOP got in vogue, I puzzled at

> Getting fewer views (and likely much reduced watch time) means YouTube's algorithm quickly buries your video.

Question remains: so what? Unless you are monetizing your videos and intend to make significant money from “engagement”, why would someone single-minded let optimize for views or algorithm-friendliness?

For this guy, I guess he’s trying to make a living from YouTube, so I guess… by all means growth hack your video thumbnail. But for the rest of the video uploaders, absent a desire to monetize, a video with 100 views is no worse for the uploader than a video with 100,000 views.

Thoughts on code reviews and the power of patch series (2020)
Ask HN: Why did Microsoft give up on XPS?
My first impressions of the XML Paper Specification (XPS) were ok. But after so many years, MS has not updated it to catch up with Adobe's PDF. I tried converting a docx document to XPS and PDF using MS Word, and the XPS takes considerably more time to compile than the PDF, and the end result also has horribly lower quality and slower scrolling/zooming speed than the PDF version. Not to mention that fonts are not rendered as vectors in the XPS format either; they are jagged esp. upon zooming in.

Why is this the case? I would very much like to see something other than PDF get popular.
> a simple NAS device that is not much larger then drives it uses, but doesn't have Qnap OS installed on it.

Well, you could just install your favorite Linux distro on a QNAP NAS device. Cost-wise the Pi-NAS option isn't even competitive if you aim for similar spec and form factor and packaging.
Does this do anything beyond helping you and your team keep track of which branches your feature branch is based off of, and which order they should be merged in? I think you can already do this in git / GitHub. I usually do it by starting a PR with "based on #n which should be merged first". You can stack any number of PRs that way. You can even set the PR target to the base branch to narrow down your diff for review, and change the target to your main branch any time you want. What does Graphite add to this workflow?
No, my argument is that TS makes writing code easier and that easier does not equal to quality [0].

I have been writing code for more than 20 years. Personally, TS doesn't impress me. This is not meant as a criticism. Personally, I have found functional programming to be revelatory. I am shocked that is as been around as long as it has and that our schools don't teach it (or just mention it) and the majority of people in our industry as resistant to it.

Researchers Are Using Artificial Intelligence to Create Better VR Experiences
When you click the add button, the extension grabs the cookies for the specified domain from your desktop browser and attaches it to the flow to be used when running in the cloud.

The cookies are used for as long as the user keeps them in the cloud flow. (Browserflow doesn't try to be smart and automatically refresh the cookies on your behalf because there are scenarios like using multiple accounts in the same browser, etc.) Most major sites use quite long expiration dates for cookies (a year is fairly common) so there usually aren't issues with cookies becoming invalid for a while.

> You accused him of making the world a worse place for styling his YouTube thumbnail in a way that maximizes the number of people who click on his video. That’s obviously silly when his videos are adding much more to the lives of many hundreds if not thousands of people.

Can you not see how much this reads like marketing copy? You make it almost sound like they're doing the world a service by getting them to click on the video (thus generating money for them) they otherwise wouldn't have.

Putting that aside, as I mentioned elsewhere I am not convinced by the "ends justify the means" argument on display here.

> That’s like saying artists who make more appealing art are engaging in psychological manipulation.

They are, but that's also precisely what they're selling. We view art with the expectation and desire for it to manipulate us. I suppose you could make the argument that at least some people actually want that from youtube thumbnails, but I would point out that that is roughly equivalent to saying people actually like the addictive qualities of lootboxes.
If their nutrition products and trademark pre-date Impossible Foods, Impossible Foods might be in some trouble.

I wouldn't look down on anyone that worked for Amazon. I hope I'm never in a situation where I would have to but I would if that happened, but I would prefer not to, simply because I think that Bezos is not someone I want to support with my time, energy or money and I think their corporation isn't doing anything to make the world better.

I do not shop from Amazon either for similar reasons, nor Whole Foods, and I also don't buy from Walmart, same reason.

And before APRS we had packet radio[1]. Around 1992/3 I remember going to Boy scout camp at ten mile river and a scoutmaster from another troop had a packet radio setup connected to a luggable PC in one of the buildings.

Also do they really charge $30k for an online course?
I'd believe it works in an A/B test, but the end of the day the reason it's higher is young children click on anything with that stupid looking face on it.

So I bet it does result in higher views, just children viewing it.

Many of us are trying to do exactly that. Can you explain how smugly proclaiming "see how we are better than you!?" furthers the conversation? It is not a constructive comment, it does not offer any meaningful insight to how we might improve the US. It's just divisive.
Oh hey, I'm sorry! :(

That sincerely was not my intention, and a lot of context and playfulness can get lost in comments. For what it's worth, I was simply trying to make a joke about why our marketing materials may not be as good as they should be and continue the conversation. I apologize if that came off as defensive and will make sure I double check my future comments so that they don't come off in the same light.

Woah. That could make me a very dangerous person, because I am not funny at all.
The normal way to publish is to point them (Netlify and alternatives) at a git repo and they pull, follow configured build rules, generating the resulting static site (then updating it whenever the repo sees new commits). This drop mechanism is likely just to draw people into the ecosystem by making it easily demonstrated, but clearly isn't a long term solution.

I don't mean to jinx myself here but I really hope this is part of the beginning of an industry-wide trend (after-all, Microsoft already talked about making their gear more repair-friendly) and if it is, then I'm really happy. I'm thankful for all the people who poured tons of money and countless hours of their lives into activism to make progress happen because the state of things is rather depressing when it comes to actual ownership of products.

As an example, in my country all Apple repair is done by certified 3rd parties and in 2/2 cases the repair work I got back was less than satisfactory. My 2017 MBP arrived with broken speakers after a keyboard repair (obviously) and the iPhone X I sent in for a battery swap started to bulge at the top after less than a month.

If I have the choice to order the components myself I'd rather lose my warranty when I'm close to losing it anyway and just bring it to a person whom I trust with doing a good job.
The CIA still met with some of the more extreme groups. The reason they wanted to cut the ISI out was to maximize their interests.

If you read the sources I linked, you will see that the CIA directly met with and financed Haqqani, which was one of the most extreme and who went on to be instrumental in the founding of Al Qaeda by greatly assisting Bin Laden in Afghanistan and allying with him.

That is to say, unequivocally, the CIA directly funded and abetted the rise of Islamist fundamentalism.
The docs for the CLI and dashboard go into some more depth - might be what you're looking for?

- https://docs.graphite.dev/guides/graphite-cli

- https://docs.graphite.dev/guides/graphite-dashboard

Re `git rebase --onto`, the open source CLI offers a recursive implementation to prevent you from having to carefully rebase each branch in your stack (https://github.com/screenplaydev/graphite-cli/blob/main/src/...)

One of the reasons you cant use a simple rebase --onto is that you dont want to accidentally copy all downstack commits between the merge base and what you're restacking onto. The CLI tracks branch bases commits through git refs to ensure that restacking never duplicates commits.

TBH I find it completely wild that someone prefers PHP to a statically generated site (Assuming you can get away with statically-generated). Just serving static files is way way way faster than running a backend, not to mention all of the process efficiencies you get by not having to manage servers etc.

When I update my blog (statically-generated), I add an .md file containing the blog post, commit it to git, and push it to a git repo. A quick CI/CD build fires off which generates the HTML (~1 bash command in a docker container) and pushes the static files to a file server. Easy!

I’m here to vent/rant about this. I bought vsco filters packs ages ago. I haven’t used vsco in a while and I downloaded it again recently. Turns out they’ve moved to subscription based method. Fine, I’m sure I can still restore my old purchases…false. To even use the app to get to the restore button to check this, they made me sign up for an account. After much hesitation I finally did only to realize my old purchases aren’t available anymore.

To top it all off, I tried to delete my account…the app won’t let you!! You have to go to their website and delete it. But wait! First you have to verify your email before deletion. No, not verify email before accessing the account, verify before deletion.
