So? That doesn't make the following ones invalid. At best, it's like a numbered print.

The point is, there's no scarcity built in to an NFT. Scarcity builds far more value than a position in line.

I've always thought that "English" class was a misnomer.

There are really two different pedagogical goals:

- Learn to read and write accurately and clearly in the English language (what would, in Spain, Germany or China also be "English Class")

- Practice a REPL regarding things that other people have written (in the context of a larger corpus of things that people have written), by happenstance in English because that's what the students are most familiar with[0]. This could better be called "Language Arts" because presumably they do similar things in Germany, Spain and China but they (also presumably) don't call it "English Class".

[0] I had an angry moment in high school (among many) when I found out that my English class would be spending an entire year reading translated works.
You have so much choice! That's where Linux scores.

In my way of seeing it, there are 2 main classes of distribution at the moment:

1) Rolling update distros like Arch.
2) Distributions which offer "releases" some of which are long-term ones that don't change much except for security fixes e.g. Ubuntu.

I love the rolling distributions like ARCH and its derivatives because I hate having to do the once-every-2-years "big upgrade" that you get if you want to have a modern linux.

You pay for that with the potential for slightly more breakage from time to time (that is usually quickly fixed).

This suits my personality perfectly but you might just want a safe drive and you'd choose one of the Ubuntu-derivates and download the Long Term Support release. You could be experimental within containers or virtual machines and benefit from having a more robust host.

NB.
I wouldn't waste time on Fedora - it's not too stable AND releases age quickly so I found it a pain to deal with.
While this coincidentally works for IPFS CIDs, it's not clear why hashes wouldn't be first-class fields in the NFT itself.
Weird coincidence but I have to share. I just checked your profile - you’ve only had this account for a couple of months. Despite that, I recognize your name and look forward to reading you. Heck, you’re quite literally the kind of community you’re talking about.

More sensibly, if we want the FDA to make delivering a particular set of documents a sizable piece of its job, we should (through Congress) direct that and allocate appropriate funding for that purpose.

I think the recommended pattern is something like:

If you’re using a component based framework (e.g., Vue), you create a named component.

If you’re not using a component-based framework, you create named classes with applied atomic styles.

With either approach, your styles are contextualized with a name and can be reused.

That makes sense, thanks! It has indeed been run in a loop from the start despite the poor ergonomics - I did not think of it in that light.
I setup jabberd in our org, back around 2008, when our President wanted a secure messaging system and downloaded some trial shareware to do this. I setup Pidgin with (I believe) the OTR plugin so everything was secure. I was surprised by how easy it was to get everything up and running, even with limited knowledge of Windows server administration. I just needed to write a few batch scripts to run on startup.

Now we run Google Hangouts and are locked into their ecosystem. I miss open systems, even if I wasn't taking full advantage of them at the time.

“Actual” == “not counter factual” in this context. How about “the current state of the world” ?

Imagine two worlds:

1. The current/actual state of the world: far too many people commit suicide every year.

2. A counterfactual state of the world in which spending $10 billion on mental health services prevents 6,000 suicides in the UK.

A $50 billion welfare loss has been averted in (counterfactual) world 2, relative to (actual) world 1.
I'll rephrase: if you want something to actually happen, taking it to the police (aka the agency directly responsible for dealing with assault) is more likely to work than blaming the soulless corporation for being a soulless corporation.

If you're trying to rile up the masses so that someone goes to court and sues Uber for this, then sure, go ahead. But it'll take significantly longer than dealing with one driver.
The Momo thing was a pretty big deal -- Just calling it a random Japanese sculpture is ignoring everything that happened around it on various social media outlets. I can understand why Facebook would remove references to it pretty much forever. Its fame was never tied to anything but the controversy.

Are there other examples of autobans that are more egregious? Just curious.
There are a number of digital issues to handle and for large companies the classic “how is blockchain better than a central database” doesn’t pass.

For a smaller dev, does saving some percentages of profits to distribution make sense?

As for DRM, I don’t think an nft solves that or piracy in general but neither does the current system.

I guess the question of nfts is “Is it possible for ownership of unique digital goods to exist without a central authority controlling it?”

Doesn’t seem like a bad question to ask, and I don’t think the tech is there, but the idea of an nft could answer it.
What Makes Life Meaningful? Views from 17 Advanced Economies
Completely agree. I think there's a continuity between the misconception of Org Mode as being just being another markup format and Emacs being just another text editor.
Bizarre that the second to top comment (on the linked page) immediately turned the conversation into one about the commenter's view on racial/sexual supremacy and goes on to say "correspondingly, there are also ethnicities that are less intelligent" (I'm assuming they are implying supremacy of their own group.) It's quite jarring the frequency one comes across white supremacist/misogynist talking points when one tries to engage with programming/computer science communities online.

It makes me appreciate the largely positive and safe experience HN provides, despite the occasional user that insists the opposite.

Edit: some of the comments appear to have been removed/deleted or otherwise fallen off, though the comment about "ethnicities that are less intelligent" is still up near the top.
100% agree.

The general public rightfully has a very low trust of the gov't and this certainly adds more validity to their distrust.

When a merchant sells their long-tail business, can these folks run it just as well? I'm incredibly skeptical of that claim.

Long tail screams boutique, special interest. Holy water blessed dog cushions, handmade driftwood furniture, custom embroidered Naruto vests, sex toys, and other random things.

Can the venture equivalent of private equity really run these businesses and not drive them into the ground? Do the machines and automatons that take over have the energy and soul to let these once small sellers thrive? Do they understand the diverse customer interests?

I want to see what happens when Keith Rabois buys ZeeDog custom dog leashes, Heirloom Snacks, and random adult clothing stores. It'll be a challenge for his company to understand the logistics of each business and their customer needs.

Things need ownership to not suck, and this seems to be a step backwards.

"Shark Tank for Shopify" would be a better bet. Let the owner keep doing what they do. Take a small percentage and help them grow. Succeed as they do. The original owners will have more drive and passion to make it happen.
> The English curriculum was geared towards reading literature and summarizing the morals and themes rather than learning the rules of English language.

English class is usually a bunch of things. There's a reason they've moved away from just calling it "English", now. Comprehension is a huge part of literacy, yet most adults are pretty bad at it despite all the time schools spend trying to teach it to them.

I ran into this with a web app to automate unenployment insurance claim processing.

It sounds so boring but it turns out that every state has their own process (that they change without notifying you) and they use different pieces of data to identify workers and companies. Also everything was still paper-based so we got a scanned image and OCR text.

This was 10 years ago and we were doing fairly large scale NLP in PHP, matching millions of documents to claimants and companies and doing some amount of fraud detection.

It's still among the most interesting projects I've worked on.
> A close review of Snowden's official employment records and submissions reveals a pattern of intentional lying. He claimed to have left Army basic training because of broken legs when in fact he washed out because of shin splints. He claimed to have obtained a high school degree equivalent when in fact he never did. He claimed to have worked for the CIA as a "senior advisor," which was a gross exaggeration of his entry-level duties as a computer technician. He also doctored his performance evaluations and obtained new positions at NSA by exaggerating his resume and stealing the answers to an employment test. In May 2013, Snowden informed his supervisor that he would be out of the office to receive treatment for worsening epilepsy. In reality, he was on his way to Hong Kong with stolen secrets.

> culturally we tend to think that our country is the best place in all dimensions

I think that is a stereotype itself, and at this point held more by non-Americans than Americans. Aside from a minority of hard core believers, what I mostly hear is complaining about the country. Especially online.
Yeah, for a given level of entropy words are a better choice, but the fact is that dictionary attacks greatly reduce the efficacy of what could be an incredibly strong password if they can safely assume it is formed exclusively from concoctenated standard words. However if you break the validity of that assumption by using a word that's not on a list, then the dictionary attack must be combined with a brute force attack with the same string length. If we assume an average word length of 5 letters, that 7 word password jumps to 1.22x10^79 possible combinations if you randomly substitute one letter.

>My only complaint is that Emacs is the only text editor that fully supports Org Mode. Other editors (e.g. vim, VSCode) support it too, with only to an extent.

My concern with org-mode is a superset of that. The only parser that fully supports org-mode is the one in org-mode itself. The ones not built into org-mode (pandoc, org-ruby, etc) all only support a subset of org's features. This makes writing anything to share in org-mode more difficult because you have to restrict yourself to writing in the subset of org-mode that e.g. pandoc supports.

That's why I laughed quietly to myself when I saw that the author had written, "Org mode is standardized". Org-mode is exactly as standardized as Markdown was when Gruber published Markdown.pl. There is one authoritative implementation (org-mode's elisp, Gruber's perl script), and to be "standard", all other implementations need bug-for-bug compatibility with the authoritative version. The only reason org-mode feels more standardized is that, currently, the only practical way to use org-mode is with the original implementation, in emacs. No doubt the original users of Markdown felt the same way, when using markdown.pl to format their blog posts.

Your complaint comes down to the meme „why use many word when few do trick“.
Oh yeah. PHP was the first language where I thought "hey, this thing that already works, I could rewrite it in exactly the same form in another language". I rewrote a Perl payment gateway thing that I had written almost alone earlier into PHP, made it OO and everything. No point whatsoever but what an exercise :P This was ~1997.

So it was almost the first language I used to make actual money.
He was a super genius. Just a super genius who repeatedly called for genocide and nuclear first strikes. He was removed from the target selection committee for the Japan bombings because he kept advocating for high civilian targets with no military value and even the generals at the table viewed him as crazy. The ability to be a genius and a lunatic aren't mutually exclusive and the recent efforts to build a hagiography around him are concerning.
Sorry. I fully agree that we should contain covid discussion in covid threads, so people can easily avoid this topic altogether. And make a better effort.

I do. It's called Beeper. Also, I didn't care that they were "master of none". I just wanted to talk to all my friends on all the networks without having to use a ton of memory running multiple apps, which was more important back then, when the cost of multiple apps was higher.

Yeah, because everyone moved to closed networks.

Where you are in your career also matters. For my last job, I took a pay cut to work at an interesting startup, and of course went into it knowing it might not last.

I'm more interested in stability now. On my last job hunt i was avoiding some more interesting work in favor of stability. I was in my late 30s at the time and just didnt want to go through all the start up problems I've experienced in the past.

That all said, I'm on a small team now working on an ecommerce site. It seems like a boring job, but I've been surprised at how much I've been able to use "interesting" tech to solve problems. You actually dont know when that boring job might be exactly what you want.
We could examine this by comparing 'anti-freedom' systems like chattel slavery (Old US South Cotton Plantations) vs. wage slavery (Appalachian Coal Company Towns).

In the former, refusal to work for the masters led to beatings, torture, mutilitaion and death. In the later, refusal to work for the bosses led to homelessness and hunger and death.

Now, one could argue that the coal company town was 'more free' than the cotton plantation, I suppose.

Ultimately freedom requires the dismantling and weakening of hierarchical social power structures. Let's say the people in that coal company town were the ones who elected their bosses, rather than some remote collection of wealthy shareholders.

Wouldn't that be even more free? Democratization of corporations seems like going in the direction of freedom. Germany is ahead in this, as corporate boards in Germany include employee representatives, not just shareholder representatives.

> In any case, hero-worship of scientists is very silly. The Nobel Prize bears a lot of the blame for this

I think it's more that it gets indoctrinated in the process of learning math and science, where every historic formula, theory, hypotheses, and law, is named after someone. It's easy to overlook that all those someones were complex, flawed human beings. And as you allude to, many great discoveries are the work of many. But when learning science, I feel like the history often gets glossed over and tends to overlook the less famous contributors to great ideas.

> No one is ever truly free

Freedom exists in the mind. Even the most oppressed enslaved people can still be free in their own head.

On the other hand, I use some proprietary non-free software, so I've traded my freedom to use certain technology, but other than that, I consider myself as always being free no matter what the circumstances. All the old sages have said something similar: 'You are enslaved the moment you think you are'
I endlessly revise outgoing messages, often rearranging parts of my sentences to ensure what I'm saying is clear (enough). After mistakenly hitting Send enough times, especially when there's an apostrophe in the text, if the message is at all important or complex enough, I drop into a text editor first, then paste and send. This also skips the "X is typing" problems you describe.

I wonder how many other people do this.
We recently switched from a custom markdown setup to Archbee (https://archbee.io) for our user and developer documentation. Our team loves it!

What does any of that matter?
Kind of. The apt developers have taken steps to make it harder to remove essential and protected packages, which is a good idea. It would also be a good idea to make the warnings emit red text, some of it flashing, and to replace any override prompt with a more explicit one. It would also, in my opinion, be good to have apt finally start removing orphaned dependencies by default (like many, if not most, package managers already do), so you don't have that big list of orphaned deps at the top.

But on Debian, Ubuntu, and other Debian-based distros, the desktop environment is neither protected nor essential, so this prompt or error message won't even come up if a dependency conflict requires removing the DE in order to satisfy the dependencies of some new app.

> a package installation shouldn't have asked him to nuke his GUI in huge wall of text, it should've rejected him

Experience helps, but it doesn't take an expert to tell that removing 90 packages in order to install 1 application doesn't seem normal. (Occasionally one does see things like that during major dist-upgrades.) The mere fact of the wall of text itself WAS a huge warning.

A package manager should offer to do whatever is required to complete the operation you've asked of it, as long as it won't brick your system (render it unrecoverable without recourse to external media or devices, or render the package manager itself inoperable). (If what you've asked it to do is sufficiently explicit, maybe it should even remove itself.) It should also give you the resources (as apt does, through `apt show`) to inspect each package marked for removal and installation, in case you don't know what they are.

One of the reasons I like Unix-like operating systems (aside from macOS, which violates this principle) is that they don't waste your time with tons of warnings and locks and gates that don't actually mean anything, or which prevent you from doing things that are in fact harmless and unlikely to cause you any trouble.

It's fine for distros like Pop!_OS to extend the notion of ‘bricking’ the system to include removing the desktop environment. But I'm not very interested in running systems which are designed to cater to people who want to use them (and use them recklessly, at that) without understanding them at the expense of users who are willing to learn how they work.
My thoughts exactly. This could be replicated by just taking the html, piping it to s3 bucket then create a dns record that points to it. No build nothing. Just html -> "server"

It’s increasingly difficult to find product reviews with search engines.

Massive auto generated content farms take a product name and add loads of AI-generated filler text. Pop in a bunch of banner ads and an affiliate link and they have huge economic incentive to scale these operations.
