This is where I stopped reading, although I will finish the article.

He’s writing about the stereotype.

Humility often comes with this experience and wisdom. Some people are capable of seeing that everything is changing, all the time, regardless of their personal experience.

That recognition frees you to embrace new, different, the things that used to be unthinkable.
And a "Search Bing in Sidebar" context menu option when selecting text.

And the default Chromium keyboard shortcut for searching selected text with your default search engine has been hardcoded to open Bing.

And the new tab page searchbar takes an extra step to have it not search Bing when you have configured a different default search engine.

And recently they added a neat search button in browser console events. Unfortunately it only does Bing, and news articles about Amazon worker strikes are not helpful when debugging web worker errors....

There's a lot of good stuff happening with this browser, but I'm definitely getting close to my breaking point.
umm, it's not impossible that the data shows that it's "working great"
> How much potential do kids lose to chasing and fighting over women in schools/colleges?

I notice you seem to have jumped from "kids" to basically straight male kids.

In times and places when gender-based segregation was the norm, how much potential was lost when women and girls were either excluded from schools or shunted to lesser schools with a reduced curriculum?
You may say "hey blueorigin" and get nothing, except maybe a lawsuit.
I think it is the other way round: people who are part of an open minded academic environment are more likely to come out then let's say people in a conservative workers class environment.
To be fair, I use Firefox to achieve pretty much the same thing.

I follow ZeroHedge, but this statistic isn't very helpful without knowing the number of false positives or incorrect timing.
Well... You also have to realize that most of those messages are going to be complete garbage that they have to wade through. I'm not convinced they have it any easier.
Is holding the shares a condition of working there? Cause I'd rather sell them and diversify. I don't want the risk of the company going under to cost me my salary _and_ my investments.
Overcast has features to do some of this on the listener side. I prefer having the AI on the listener side so I can go back to the raw version if the AI messes up for some reason.
Thanks for the interesting rabbit hole. I’ve been using a split ortho keyboard and while I’m quite happy with it I think there’s a small bit of FOMO whenever I see a unique design. Applies to the Topre and the Datahand equally: would be curious to try them, but probably not enough to procure one.

Do you think gay men aren't distracted by beautiful men?
I bought my current car 5 years ago second hand outright for £12k. These cars are at least £35k out of my price range and are about half the cost of my house. I'm not rich.

Until these cars are more reasonably priced (up front cost) the majority of people can't afford to buy them regardless of their range or potential saving on fuel.
All Tesla's come with either a fob or an NFC keycard. Owners are recommended by the car/manual to always keep them available.

But the convenience of just walking up to your car and it unlocking with your phone is enough for many people to take it for granted, and forget those other entry methods at home.
Yes, the idea is to bring also prepaid credits soon.

Auphonic and Cleanvoice go well together.

I guess the idea is to have your podcast edited by Cleanvoice and then the audio post-processing with Auphonic.
Did this study account for the fact that people are more likely to identify as gay if they come from more privileged backgrounds? If not, isn't that extremely stupid of the study? Or was there some ideological reason for the apparent stupidity?
Wouldn't they be distracted by, IDK, all the men they find attractive but frustratingly cannot be with because they're straight? Or the systemic oppression they face?

I mean you're responding to a sociological study with a one sentence quip, so IDK what I expected but what a bad take. I just...wow.

If it's only beautiful women that prohibit men from getting degrees, why don't attractive men distract the women? Why are only straight men unable to keep up
Correct — this is why 9/11 was possible then and impossible now, TSA or no TSA. Source: I’ve traveled on airplanes with some frequency between 1980 and now.
It's an interesting thought experiment IMO and you can't really resolve moral questions by looking at what the law says. After all, the law tends to be based on some moral principles, and laws can fail or be ineffective/corrupt.

It is quite conceivable that when it comes to working-from-home (and having the employer contribute to the costs that you make at home), the laws simply aren't in place yet, because we have never seen WFH on the scale that we see during the pandemic. So it is ultimately silly to try to determine what is reasonable based on the currently existing law here.
Very old games on new systems
I have accidentally zapped my gonads whilst stepping over an electric fence. Trust me, you definitely don't ever want to do that unless you're into that sort of thing!
The Titan Pocket has a 4000mAh battery. Small devices tend to have different use patterns since they are less suited for watching movies or playing games. I charge mine every other night but I think it can get through 3-4 days if needed.
You kind of missed the point. Whether this is a good idea or not wasn't important, more of a "would it work"
Wait until you discover taxes (or they discover you)!
Well, America is still more or less a democracy -- the locally-ruling parties don't seem to have entirely corrupted election systems, yet. So getting involved in politics might make a difference. Best hurry up, while you can.
It makes sense if you are an amoral product manager at a large company with monopolistic tendencies.

The way I see it, there are two basic economic activities: value creation and money extraction. Classic open source is totally the former. Ditto the sort of artist painting murals in the alleys of San Francisco. [1]

Most things end up with some of both. E.g., all the entrepreneurs on HN who have a good idea and make a product. Value creation is where they start, but they need to pay the bills, so they then turn to monetization.

But for some people, they start with cash extraction. Their first question looking at anything is, "How do I get money from this?" Value creation is done grudgingly if at all. So when they see something like a browser, they think, "Wow, look at all the money flowing through this. How do I deflect a portion of that money into my pockets?" Whether it harms the user or the ecosystem is irrelevant to them except to the extent there will be blowback that harms the cash extraction.

To me that's the ethics of a parasite and it's revolting. But to a disturbing number of people, that's just good sense.

The numbers in this study aren't about recent grads either; the top-level figures include people that got their degrees decades ago, so it's like a survival-weighted integral over time.
The TSA confiscates thousands of guns per year. I wonder, does that stat mean that potentially tens or hundreds of thousands of guns are getting by onto planes? Or is the average person who brings a gun to the airport just not as good at concealing it as these red teams?
We need politicians who understand computers at all first or the laws are going to make zero sense like the current ones.
I think obviously it's a two-way street. There are many factors here. They seem to be oversimplifying the issue, which is perhaps understandable but will lead to erroneous conclusions rooted in bad mental models.
Chrome is a terrifying window into the internet. To say it is the “best” is a bankrupt technical praise with no regards of privacy or the fact that Google knows more about you than you do. It has a monopoly on this.

Let’s not become more dystopian. Google is one of those evil companies that hardly get bad press on HN along with TikTok.
It's a free country, those people are not slaves. Do you think they don't know how to write a resume, make a profile on LinkedIn, or get in touch with a recruiter?
Please don't interrupt Mr. Peterson, he was just about to tell us all to go clean our rooms if we want to be successful alphas in a world of Cultural Marxists and how that will fix the fact that nobody can tolerate our odious personalities.
We are in violent agreement!

Optimization never grows old, but it’s the more general form of optimization of which you speak, rather than hyper-specific instances of optimization which can overfit to specific eras.

You missed about half the article. There was this part (along with lots of examples), "Some expertise is timeless. A few behaviors always repeat. They’re often the most important things to pay attention to."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finger_(protocol)

Back when logging into a shell server was the standard way to access the Internet, finger provided a way to get information on users on a particular/site. E.g. finger someone@server.school.edu.

Usually you could create dotfiles named .project/.plan in your home directory, and the contents would be displayed for all to see. .project/.plan files were the blogs/tweets of that era. Sometimes I miss those simpler days!
If you take this attitude you should write all of your own tools, make your own hardware, not use any libraries (I might actually be able to make a case for this one).

I am most familiar with AWS, so all I can say is their prices have gone down over times, the availability has gone up, and the total number of services is amazing.

With other cloud vendors I think you might be at more risk of them shutting down services, but if they start doing that with out giving you multi-year notice it means they are going out of business.
The Kia has an 800V charging system so it's bound to charge way faster than most 400V systems (like Tesla's) as long as the charger supports it (which Kia certainly made sure of while planning the route for this trip). 800V charging is certainly rare and super expensive right now - e.g. Ionity in Europe charges 79 cents per kWh, which is 4+ times more expensive than charging at home - but eventually it should become standard.
Addiction is a physiological disease. Burglary is not. You cannot compare them just because they are both crimes, as they have different causes. Those that burgle choose to do so (and yes, their circumstances may lead them to do so, such as poverty) but those who are addicted cannot really choose, their body demands that they abuse the substance.
I charge the battery every third day. Granted I don't spend a lot of time using it, and I keep the battery saver mode on.

Who calls themselves globalists?
I couldn't agree more. This is how I run Windows.
Some big differences: Without the equivalent of AMA lobbying Europe has a lot more primary care doctors per capita than the US. No long history of trying to get everyone healthcare without using taxation resulting in a pile of Rude Goldberg regulations that nobody understands. Regular use of cost-benefit analysis in deciding what procedures or drugs to pay for, now that the FDA has approved aducanumab it's going to be available to people even though it probably doesn't work and is breathtakingly expensive.
Yes. What if neither is possible?

- People do not want to provide this safety net for men,

- People psychologically resist to remove it from women.

Equality is not possible.
I have an iPhone 12 mini, and the reason I like it so much is because I really don't care about having all the newest features in my smartphone.

I use a desktop computer and rarely use my phone for anything other than text messaging or sometimes checking my email. However, I do really care about the computer I own, as I got the new 16" Macbook Pro the day it was announced.

Different people like different things. Not everyone uses their phone as a computer or their computer as a Facebook scrolling machine.
It's a one time bridge. Bridge once, and then the transactions with the funds you have on l2 can be traded or borrowed against for vastly cheaper then mainnet.

If you want or have a need to add more funds to trade with, then it's an additional bridging fee, but not every tx is $40-50.
> I pay my money so that I dont have to worry

My view on money it that the purpose of money is to solve problems. My goal is not to have more money, it's to have less problems.

I live in a country where I do not ever have to think about how I will pay for my healthcare, which would be an enormous problem to have.
Not letting users uninstall Edge is the definition of bloat ware.

Imagine forcing the world to use your little chrome distro. It’s like they find reasons to make us hate them.
That feels very much like an ivory tower opinion. Payday loans, layaway plans, etc are very popular for many who live paycheck to paycheck.
>I notice you seem to have jumped from "kids" to basically straight male kids.

Well, yes, because men are more influenced by hormones to actively pursue women who passively choose suitors, like virtually any other sexually dimorphic species. And straight males make up easily 90%+ of the male population, so I don't know why you've even added that qualifier?

>In times and places when gender-based segregation was the norm, how much potential was lost when women and girls were either excluded from schools or shunted to lesser schools with a reduced curriculum?

That's not an argument against gendered segregation.
Wow, that is a pretty misleading and irresponsible use of gov't data, and I would be surprised if it fooled anyone here.
With 70% vaccination rate in the uk, the rate of infection among the vaxxed would need to be over double that of the unvaxxed to indicate a lack of effect.

That is brazen and repulsive. I cannot possibly imagine a "Search with MSN" menu item on the Windows XP Notepad.
The latter. This isn't about freedoms or who is better than who. It's about being part of the change you want to see, versus dragging everything down with endless negativity. I'm no one special, but I at least put my money where my mouth was. I know there are others who could do the same, yet they choose not to because it's easier to merely act like they care.
I think there must be a counter-weight because they say the ascent is assisted but also that it uses no electricity. Counter-weight must be hidden or something.
I'm gay.

I almost want to say it's the reverse: Gay men need to go through all the stages of denial before they come out and then, sometimes, witness it in whoever they come out too. I would then say trying to prove yourself _because_ you cannot achieve masculine ideals is moot.

This _does_ however apply to gay men who _aren'_ out. They need to overcompensate because they want to be ready in case they are shunned; i.e. if they are successful they won't need their family's support.
I wonder if issue 3 is related to at least one of the other issues :P
This is a gross mischaracterization of libertarians, and a cheap straw man.
For sure. I'm old enough that Microsoft's reputation is that of an exploitative, dirty-dealing, would-be monopolist. They appeared to get better after the DOJ and a number of competitors knocked them from their dominant position. But I've always suspected that was a change forced by circumstance, not some sort of deep inner improvement.
This quote made me feel better: "Some of the biggest businesses of the last 10 years are all in industries that were the starkest examples of stupidity 20 years ago."

I'm still a little bitter from VC experiences 20 years ago.

In 1998 my friends and I built a browser-based (Java applet) collaborative word processor and spreadsheet called Office Wherever (o-w.com). We shopped it to a dozen VCs and all went ROFLMAOWTFBBQ. They all said the same - no company would want to put their files on the (scary) Internet (the term "cloud" was still years away).

In 2001 my friend and I had built a full music & movie/tv streaming service with a full-screen interface that looks just like the modern ones, built demo hardware, had access to all the rights etc. Everyone we pitched it to went ROFLMAOWTFBBQ. They said people will NEVER get rid of their DVDs! They like having things on their shelves to show off. What a stupid idea! You need to be like Netflix and rent DVDs to people! You stupid! STUPID STUPID STUPID!

I wonder what folks are pitching today to VCs who are rolling on the floor laughing when they see the "stupid" demo?
Yes, but let's be reasonable - not everything that is available as a food can be classified as food(in the sense of healthy food). I, for one, as an omnivore, that shuns extreme food preferences, have a very diverse diet(which includes meat, fish, vegetables) and prepare and cook food myself and my strange habbit is not getting the same food every day, because it gets too boring. Even because of this diverse diet, I still can easily develop some problems, that other people seems to not have eating the same food.

Also, if you think about that - not only smell, but taste and texture can cause sensory overload and if you have eaten something that feels funny, that means that your gut also is sending signals. I have vomited food, that others did not had problems eating, even if that food was probably slighly spoiled - apparently this is something that my gut tolerates less than others.

Let's also think on whom this paper is aimed at - in general people are stupid, like the parent that succumbed to childs demands of food(though, pear is fruit, smoked chicken is meat, waffle is providing hydrocarbonates). So, there are people out there, that has to be taught, that varied diet has to be taught in chhildhood - that knowledge will stay for the rest of your life. If my parents were allowing me to eat only candies, that I was happy to consume in large quantities and not introduced to fish and other foods, that I found repulsive as a kid, then I would be similar to other people, who were not exposed to some foods and still find them repulsive, like in childhood. Some things have to be taught in childhood - like immunity - if children are not exposed to countryside, or exposure to danger - of open flame, etc.

Koalas that are feeding upon specific Eucaliptic trees are not born with those gut bacterias, that are allowing to eat those leaves - they have to receive that gut bacteria via consuming fecal matter of their koala mother - if they are not receiving that bacteria, they are for sure having problems with their diet.
Yes and one of the Win10 updates clobbered GRUB somehow. Windows is just a bad neighbor.

This is just good old monopoly market capture. Edge is malware, don't support it.
Not really true. There are a number of problems with Windows and, more generally, the Microsoft ecosystem.

One clear area is that Windows has very weak separation of admin from user. There are tons of great mechanisms like integrity levels, but for a user's laptop Microsoft does not consider UAC to be a boundary between user and Admin and so escalations are ubiquitous.

This is certainly not the case with OSX and Linux.

Windows also has a litany of persistence mechanisms, far more than I'm aware of with OSX and Linux. The Windows registry is this incredible hive of ways to execute code.

There's all sorts of debt involved that really puts Windows at a disadvantage, despite their significant investments that we should all celebrate.

Once you add things like Word, Active Directory, etc, it gets really bad. If you're building a traditional "microsoft" network you're setting yourself up for ransomware.

>I find the cadence very unnatural when all the spaces between phonemes are removed.

Any editing can be overdone and, while I do a modicum of editing out umms, you knows, and other verbal ticks when I'm putting together a podcast interview, I'm not fanatical about it.

You do occasionally get someone who just speaks quite slowly and it is sort of annoying to listen to as audio. So I've done some automated gap reduction is a couple cases.
.... so you can... never borrow more than you already have? that seems like the exact opposite of a loan. Why not just keep the $1000 yourself and spend $800 of it? If you can't pay yourself back, then you're only out $800 instead of the $1000 in your example.
Wow! Thank you so much! You are right, I need to get ASAP a copywriter.

I'm curious why the Subscription + Onetime Credit is bad. But I agree it is confusing.

My understanding is that not every customer wants or needs a subscription, since they upload podcasts irregularly.

Nerds consistently seem to undervalue actual expertise in the humanities and instead assume that they can just work through these ideas on their own with limited training.

And because so many people are interested in these topics but are also uneducated, they find amateur analysis to be convincing.

The utilitarian value of a car seems to be an outlier to a lot of people these days.

The utilitarian value of literally all cars is that they get you from A to B. Your Avalon has a V6 engine, tire pressure monitoring, alloy wheels, side airbags, traction control, a stereo system, climate control, power adjusted front seats, etc. You don't really need any of that.

Or maybe you literally can't go anywhere unless you have a leather-covered gear shift knob.
