That confused me at first, so just to elaborate for anyone else - the moderation team is stepping down, having grievances including an unaccountable core team. Steve Klabnik is on the latter, not the former, so not resigning.

So unless GP is suggesting that the moderation team felt SK's post airing grievances with Amazon was against CoC/whatever standards they expected of him, not related.

(Edit: oh, perhaps tangentially related after all. See codys' comment https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29307113)

Uh, so why didn't he just buy the ETH?

What does that mean? Unlocking your MacBook gives access to your RSA keys and all is lost.
Maybe is better that no single action is emphasized or a single person and focus on the actual problem, the fact that there might be a group that is above the laws/rules and possible solutions.

Edit: I think if some action will be made public then everyone will focus on debating why that action was correct/incorrect , then a lot of mostly politics dirt will be thrown around etc.
If you've been using a Sony DPT-RP1 or DPT-CP1, you should also consider the Fujitsu Quaderno Gen 2, which is the most prominent successor of the RP1/CP1. I strongly prefer my Quaderno to my Remarkable 2. Unfortunately My Deep Guide hasn't been able to get a review unit yet.
This is what Microwatt is intended to address, though you have to synthesize it yourself. With luck Arctic Tern will give you the playaround board you'd like. https://www.talospace.com/2021/10/first-flight-of-kestrel-fp...

I only have the Note Air 1 and I don't see any ghosting on page switches in the notes app. But they are running different firmware so who knows. Other apps it's settings dependent but you can set it to refresh every page turn if you want.

I'm sure RM feel is better but I bring up it's a plastic layer/nib feel and not something specifically built into the device. It's possible to get a better writing feel with a screen protector and a different nib on the Note Air. For me, writing is secondary to reading and the RM is just too limited in that regard.
“…might enjoy watching you writhe…” I’ve seen no evidence that polar bears enjoy watching their prey suffer.
Since you are broadening the scope of the argument then let’s talk about how we raise almost all animals that make it to our plates. The process is meant to be economically efficient and has the minimum legal required considerations for the animals welfare between birth and death. It’s not just about their suffering when killed. It’s about the suffering from birth to death.

Let’s broaden it further. Human’s system for producing meat has an insane amount of harmful externalities. The polar bear fits into an ecosystem that generally find balance.

Not to mention, straw man. You can’t sidestep the question as to whether it is moral to kill an animal a certain way by making a weak argument as to how they might have had it worse.
It gives you time to slow down and reflect if this is something you really want, or just a reaction to a long and difficult week.

It's similar to the "count to ten" principle, before yelling at someone.
I saw a couple of comments saying to not use godaddy - why is that? I am a godaddy customer and have not been dissatisfied so far (excluding this data breach).

I also see namecheap being recommended a lot. Are they the go-to for domain name registration?
I don't understand this one - when are people taking a selfie at the same time they're typing in their pin? I have an android phone, and I don't even unlock to take pictures.

I just don't follow the timeline and geometry. Seems theoretical only maybe.
I have an rM2, and I loved it at first. But honestly, I've just gone back to carrying a notepad and a pen. One of the biggest issues I have is that for /most/ things when I want to take notes, it's because I've found myself in a spur of the moment situation and I need something that will fit in my pocket. For planned note-taking, I'd rather type than write. I write because I can fit a pen in my pocket. I guess it's somewhat of a tautology, but in the end my rM2 has sat very prettily on my desk, completely unused, for months.

I don't think there's anything wrong with the device itself, I think it just didn't fit the way that I take notes. The only thing I found as an actual annoyance was that they forced you into using their cloud services which I didn't think were very good. I would have much rather had it OCR my notes into Standard Notes or figured out a way to sync. Syncing to Standard Notes never happened, so I just type long-form notes directly into Standard Notes and keep a Rite in the Rain pad in my pocket and a pen for spur of the moment stuff.
> ...it boggles my mind that listening on port 0 and then reporting the actual bound port is not the default.

This already works by just telling flask to use port 0. Binding to port 0 is standard behaviour (literally, part of the standard) and like most other software of that type the first thing Flask does is report the URL it’s running on.

> but it offers tremendous convenience.

Except when it does not as is the case here. If you’re working on your web stuff having to copy/paste a URL from your term every time you restart your server.
I'd say anything in the car, really, but mostly the stuff in front of your eyes. My car has some chrome-like trim on the steering wheel, gear shift, etc. (It's a cheap car, so this is not just a case of it being luxury trim.) The sun occasionally hits them at the right angle to blast straight into my eyes. It's not frequent, but in the wrong circumstances it could cause an accident. Even once is unacceptable.
In scenario #1, there is no financial incentive (read: livable wages for researchers, manufacturers, etc.) to create medicine because your profit is $0, and we have 1000 deaths because nobody makes the medicine.

In theory if the amortized cost of a dose (including R&D salaries, equipment, drug trials, and manufacturing) is truly $1 per dose for such a tiny addressable market, competitors will pop up all over the place and undercut you on price.

From a game theory perspective, a firm choosing option #3 would lose ALL of their market share to another firm choosing option #2, and would have profit of -$1000 because they are unable to sell any of their doses.
You say:

> It is hard to get into it

It's interesting how people's opinions will differ based on their experience... I started working as a programmer while still studying something not relevant to CS. The reason I was hired was because of two things: (1) I loved to program and I was doing this for fun, I had a few little silly projects like coding a snake game that I was proud of at the time (I laugh at that code now); and (2) because I was honest about things I don't know and that I want to learn.

Of course first job was paid peanuts (and I could afford this because I was single student living with other students). But it was not hard to get it..
Simply calling a thing you don't like "a scam" is lazy and unproductive. If you have an argument to make against Godaddy (there are plenty to be made), please do so.
The last section about generalizing the treatment is a bit underwhelming. Have they seen any evidence it can be used outside this sort of repair? What about for neuropathies, as from diabetes or surgeries? Stroke? Other dysfunctions (e.g. erectile/genital) having nervous system issues as a contributing factor?

Any treatment "might" have more general applicability--but surely there is some specific direction/class of these conditions that are indicated to be more appropriate to apply the treatment to than others. I wish they'd gone in more depth here.
> If you think scientists can intentionally design something to be transient

Not to be alarmist, but this does happen. There are many classes of drugs that both offer temporary and permanent treatments. Often times, these have different tradeoffs.
Which is a pity. I always saw the Rust organization as one that acted in public and with transparency, I guess that's why I expected something more clear instead of a resignation of a full team without any further clarification about why.

But, of course up to them what they feel comfortable sharing with the public, if it's something that has to stay private I guess that's the way it will be.
Do you recommend any specific resume service? I was considering doing this but I get overwhelmed by choice. Should I also pay for my linkedIn profile to be updated?
Neither does Flask and similar, and they are the ones who arbitrarily picked an already-registered port and didn’t bother registering their own.
To me, most of it is about the boring parts of cryptocurrency. The actual cryptography is still interesting, the financial aspects are (to me) utterly boring. And a lot of the interesting bits are only tangentially related to cryptocurrency. EG this paper[1] is interesting and potentially applicable to cryptocurrency development, but is far too specialized for most of HN to discuss (and well outside the understanding of most of the cryptocurrency enthusiasts).

The finance makes for poor discussions, and the interesting parts of the tech are too obscure for most HN readers to understand. And the most popular cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, doesn't use any of the interesting parts anyway. So of course the discussions here are crap.

No idea – At this point it seems like the context isn’t widely known outside of close circles.
>is, being a software decision and thus tied to licensing and such, feels more like "you can't use the hardware because we said so", and that arguably is what people hate. It's a slippery slope in the same direction as the "you will own nothing" movement.

SaaS offerings doesn't seem to gather the same type of hate though? When was the last time people were outraged that the "basic" tier lacked features in the "premium" tier, even though the code for implementing such feature is literally on the same server and gated behind an if statement?
"Authentication is the act of proving an assertion, such as the identity of a computer system user. In contrast with identification, the act of indicating a person or thing's identity, authentication is the process of verifying that identity." (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Authentication)

So it's not useful for authentication but could be used for identification.
No, but combined with torture it might be effective enough.
My comment about how big America was had nothing to do with density. I only mentioned the size of the country to highlight that there are a lot of different jurisdictions with lots of different development patterns.
But is coding what you will be doing? Will you be continuing in the same industry?

You should talk yourself up. You have lots of experience, not just in whatever narrow industry you think, but you're also a proven worker. I've seen young people get canned because they didn't know how to get out of bed in the morning. Plus the fact that you've run a family for a while without that blowing up is also a positive. Plenty of people have had their careers blow up at the same time as a divorce.

Finally there's the fact that you have all this experience, just because you didn't have a degree doesn't mean it isn't real. I used to work with a trader who had this terrible thing bothering him about that. He knew plenty about options trading but it always bothered him that he didn't have a shiny degree, even though none of us graduates actually learn anything about options in undergrad. The degree is really only telling people that a person has learned a bunch of topics, and thus might be able to learn some other topics at work. That's not a guarantee that you can learn if you have the certificate, and it's not a guarantee that it won't be possible to learn things if you don't.

BurntSushi works at salesforce and Ilogiq works at Synth. Couldn’t find the third individual’s employer but at least 2 of 3 do not work at Amazon.
I read it as they warn people to believe the core team specifically, not the whole Rust organization, as the reason they are leaving is because of the actions from individuals in the core team (or lack of thereof).
"Unaccountable"?
I can imagine friction over this piece causing conflict between members of the core team. It could also be that Amazon tried to respond to SK's piece in ways that were against the CoC.
I sure would like to see this legislation, I suspect You just made this up. I am aware that the declaration of a state of emergency provides special powers and protection for governments when dealing with private entities but it is not a blanket mandate for companies and individuals to break contracts to their benefit.

Here is the actual Act incase anyone is interested in some dry reading.

Anyways the short of the long of it is Amazon made a decision to cancel my purchases, obviously I am not happy with that. Amazon processed the cancelation as a return which is fraudulent and unfair to the sellers. Those items will most likely end up at a liquidation center and create a loss for the seller.

Even if You feel I am being unreasonable because of the "State of Emergency", Amazon is still shipping non essential items to customers in the lower mainland and burning up our fuel and resources while the rest of us are suffering fuel rations.

Don't be so quick to discount my situation as selfish as one day soon You may very well be the one being dismissed.
Eh... fingerprints are quite a bit simpler than faces. They're just patterns. I don't know how you could detect a fake fingerprint. You'd need something that could tell there wasn't real skin on the device. I would say warmth but obviously he has the fake skin over his actual thumb so it's probably still warm.
Maybe the next step is to force high rises to include parking garages stocked with chargers, instead of externalizing that cost to the surrounding neighborhood?
At one point GoDaddy used a lot of dark patterns in their checkout and cancellation flows. Amazon's worst is relatively tame. I don't know if they cleaned up their act, but that's likely the source.

Cloudflare offers domain registration now (not just transfers), and it's at cost, so I don't see a reason to not use it unless you need to set your own nameservers. That's a paid add-on with Cloudflare's registrar service.
Same, I have an Onyx Boox Note Air which is working great. I love it at night especially because I don't have to stare at a backlight and that I can read technical pdfs more comfortably.

I also wondered why E-Ink devices are not more popular. I think it has the potential to rival the iPad but at the moment it is just a fraction of the tablet market.

I think one reason that E-Ink is not more popular is probably because of the Price and that it is really best as a secondary device. Most people would rather purchase a primary device that can do a lot of things well rather than a secondary device that can do a few things exceptionally.

When it comes to naming, then from time to time I tend to look at C# and I got impression that there are:

"Language Design Team"

"Compiler/Roslyn Team(?)"

"CLR Team(?)" yada yada

so more product/role-driven naming schema
And it complicates quickstarts. “Open your browser to localhost:5000” is way easier than “look at the command line, find the line starting with “listening on”, copy the URL (hope you’re not such a beginner you’re unaware it’s C-S-c on linux and have just killed the process scrub), paste that in your browser.
I think that's called retirement?
Apple's Taptics seems perfect, and it's been around for a long time now.
Did it a couple months ago and haven't started looking for a new job yet. Based on my email inbox, when I haven't even updated my LinkedIn status, I don't foresee any issues.

I still don't feel like I'm 100% back to normal, but I'm definitely improving. I didn't even want to touch tech before, but lately I've been tinkering around with some light things. I feel no desire to go back to work, but I also feel little to no dread anymore, which is good. Probably give it a bit longer and then get back to the grind. If you can afford it, I would recommend it. It took over a month before I stopped feeling stressed about work memories.

"Assume all your worst fears are true" is substantially different in meaning from "exercise skepticism around public statements by the Core Team." I understand your reading, but I don't think it's warranted by the actual public announcement here.
> To be fair, this behaviour isn't one-sided. Often bicycles, e-bikes and motorcycles squeeze through small gaps between cars moving slow'ish in packed traffic.

This is conflating two different activities: when a bicyclist or motorcyclist is moving in space between cars, they're using space which is already open and it doesn't impose a risk to the driver of the vehicle or require the cars to move. That's distinct from people trying to illegally pass, which creates new demands for space and frequently endangers other road users and often obstruct oncoming traffic.

The underlying issue here is that cars are the least efficient use of space by a significant margin. That means that drivers see other people taking advantage of space which they are unable to use and feel like they're losing in some way, which often leads to attempts to prevent it. When I lived in California, even though lane-splitting was legal I used to regularly see drivers move their vehicles to the edge of a lane or a few times even open their car door(!) to block motorcyclists. This was clearly because they perceived it as unfair that someone else wasn't jammed the same way they were, but misattributed the problem to the motorcylist rather than the drawbacks of their personal vehicle choices.
Programming Language authors love to formalize everything, but did Rust really need all of these rules and moderators to begin with?
> by the amazon folks

What is the reason that amazon folks would want to try and harm the rust core team?

Is there a specific group of "amazon folks" you're talking about, or do you think the entire company has something against the rust core team?

(Not saying they don't, I'm just slightly perplexed and have no idea what you're talking about).
I agree, and I feel the article implicitly focuses on workplace discussions. But it is good to make it explicit -- if you do this with your friends, you may "win" in the short term but you won't have many friends in the long term.
I love Django a lot too. It has made MVPs really easy to deliver. At the same time, I am interested in understanding about the disadvantages/quirks of using Django. Do you have more examples that you could share?
Without knowing exactly what went wrong it won't be possible for the community to know if their changes have gone far enough (or too far) to address the actual problem.

This stinks. I wonder if the moderators are concerned they'll be found culpable as well, if the problem is revealed.

Yeah if you're starting as a blank slate. I remember on UpWork that's where I did my first few things, I had to apply to so many places because I had nothing... jobs on Indeed couldn't get in... Once you have something on your resume it's easier but jobs that say "BS in CS or some thing" I don't apply unless it says "experience in tech" that I'm looking into/have experience.

But yeah I was trying to get hired since 2016 and it wasn't till 2018 I got a full time gig. In between this time I had to pick up a job like washing plates/factory because I had no money. I don't know if it's easier if you come from say a bootcamp or have a plan like the developer roadmap but yeah. That was my experience. Most of my background before this was some kind of labor work or the data entry. I almost got hired for a PHP role in 2016 but didn't get it because I didn't have a car. The test I took was written ha, like "how would you make a query for grouping music".

This guy taught me a lot about PHP from PHPFreaks, would chat with him on Skype.

Also as a side note, I did some PC tech work like removing viruses but I never had the interest to program. I had to take C++ as a course and I didn't really enjoy it at the time/same with Java, I was in Eng/Phys degree at the time. Most I used a computer for was like playing Runescape.

I picked up web development because I read about high traffic websites that would make a lot of money from ads, that didn't happen but I learned how to make websites. At this point I was on my way out of college/was failing out.

Also it wasn't till 2015 I figured out what GitHub was/how to put my code on there.
Here's a list of reasons to avoid GoDaddy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GoDaddy#Controversies

There were always people that opposed space exploration. They’ve been wrong every time.
It was huge capacity, but at a higher cost, so you try to get your payload to fit on the cheapest rocket you can.

Starship turns everything upside down and, suddenly, makes the cheapest rocket a Saturn-V class heavy booster. With it, it's cheaper to add a huge kick stage to your Neptune probe to make it get there faster, put more solar panels so you don't need to deal with compliance around an RTG, or just use steel for structural elements (because why not?), and so on.
For "big POWER" like POWER8/9/10, they are clearly not positioned at that market. However, there are small Power ISA chips for embedded systems and companies like NXP still make them (the Amiga community even tries to shoehorn these into desktop systems, to their detriment, IMHO), and IBM has done "little POWER" versions of big POWER chips (the G5 being a scaled-down POWER4 with AltiVec, for example).
I resigned in July. So far things have been going well as I've concentrated on a combination of relaxation, studying, traveling, and exercise/yoga. Last week was my first week actively looking for new employment, so far that has been going well too as I have recruiter introduction calls booked for the next 3 weeks. Right now I'm not sure how to frame my period of unemployment so I've just been speaking as if I'm still employed.
> for when all you have is a .NET hammer

Yep, I've been on teams where asking for approval to run your own proxy was out of the question, but "adding an extra module to the pipeline" was practically a rubber-stamp approval.

You are saying it like as if it were something bad.
Depends a bit on how long you want to be out of a job. However if you want to do this for some months/years, then consider investing in relationships. Either creating new or strengthening existing ones.

Whatever you decide to do, if you don't have people that can (and want to) accompany you during this time, this is just a recipe for loneliness and depression.
