Hp basically put a lisp machine into your hands. The 28 is better than the 48 except for I/O, battery door, and screen and CPU speed. (What can I say. I love the clamshell)

- Lada Niva. A relative has one in S. American. While out w/ him a cop pulled us over just to tell my uncle that he had better: “take good care of my little Russian!”
"believes in" is an easy way to dismiss someone. The word "entertains" would be more accurate. The frequencies of ratios is correlated to the compositivity of the denominator. There's nothing crazy about horoscopes except taking them too seriously. There are very deep patterns in the construction of the universe, dictated by repeating patterns.

> I had, like Dewey and others, only gradually come to the understanding that these cycles arrive from outside the earth. Not only that, but quite a few of them fitted with planetary alignments, and many serious scientists or analysts do not want to go there because that is astrology and only quacks do astrology. However it is a fact that these relationships exist. There are several reasons why the planetary alignments match common cycle periods, and others why the Sun is affected by planetary alignments.

You can still pay for apps with touch id. That payment system is separate from Apple Pay.

I'm from India. I don't think Apple pay will be a success here anymore. People here mostly make UPI transactions.
Nice! You might be on to something there.

Mining my own personal cognitive landscape i find that if i have a theory about something, i can remain somewhat uncommitted and skeptical of it as long as i don’t start layering conclusions and more theories on top. Once i start doing that, however, i find that my mind habituates the ‘given’ and the theory begins to resemble fact in its frictionless adoption into an idea. Then when i recognize that I’m doing that, it takes mental energy to undo the training.

Which is why i like the ‘unknown knowns’ idea, as one interpretation would be ‘knowns’ that aren’t really known or even knowns that are being incorporated without realizing it.
Nobody (that matters in psychology) considers "social intelligence" as an official metric. Most (minus maybe the genetic researchers) agree that various childhood traumas usually explain strange behavior.

What if Kim had a traumatic childhood, and had common issues with this like abandonment anxiety and poor boundaries? She could not see how her group could make decisions without her and her negative childhood experiences are projected onto the situation causing anxiety.

What if Kim was a healthy adult? She would maybe not have negative experiences projected onto the scenario and perhaps could easily switch to making plans by herself without her group with healthy boundaries.

What if the group was traumatized as well? The group would probably treat Kim like they were forced to treat their parents: giving Kim their full focus and emotional libido in order to avoid a fallout. This group would certainly project their insecurity onto Kim and assume her devastation.

What if the group was healthy and had healthy boundaries? The group would, perhaps, know they could not assume how the other individual would react and video call her to see if she was OK and negotiate on-call. (Any assumption of Kim's response is just projection - and studies show that the older and more experienced with social situations a person becomes the more they know they can't accurately assume how a person reacts) Positive feelings are projected onto the situation and no one projects negative experiences.

"Low social intelligence" isn't considered by most people, but childhood trauma is - and childhood trauma would clearly affect what happens. Childhood trauma causes negative affective emotions in social situations, good-enough parents cause positive affect in social situations - *NOT* social intelligence pseudoscience.

Apple’s AR headset could launch in 2022, AR could replace iPhone within a decade
A friend recently started practicing front-end development and showed me something they put together. Included was a 200+ line CSS 'reset' file. It made up most of their CSS but they weren't able to explain what the different parts of it did or why they were needed. In fact, most of it wasn't applicable (it styled elements that didn't exist) or needed (it defined styles that were always overridden later on). I suggested they remove the file piece by piece to gain a better understanding of CSS.
Sometimes you want to see all results and then ctrl + f multiple search terms. You wouldn't want to reload page as you try different keywords. Sometimes I don't even know search terms until I have scanned through a few rows.
For my fellow chronic lower back painers out there: over the course of many years I tried many things (always staying in the confines of modern medicine). There's certainly no magic bullet, but finally this book (which I have no financial incentives to promote) brought me a long lasting solution:

https://www.painscience.com/tutorials/low-back-pain.php

The whole thing certainly worths a read, since the goal of the book is to make you understand your condition and give you relief partly through that. But for me, the single most important thought of the book is "the issue is (almost) always with the tissue". If you have chronic (lower) back pain and you feel like you have tried everything, I recommend learning and applying self-massage regularly. Combined with other important, conservative treatments (physiotherapy, yoga, swimming, workout, etc.), it did wonders for me and I hope it will for others with similar problems.
Wait, didn't Patrick ask for his stuff not to be posted to HN anymore?

When I was young, maple syrup was served with pancakes, but eventually I just preferred honey (aka "bee barf") on the rare occasion that I had them.

I do remember maple sugar candy as a treat, but I haven't really had a craving to go look for it as an adult.

I never have had a particular desire to visit Quebec, but since the COVID-19 restrictions, it's been on my mind, because I can't if I wanted to.
Support in the browser would require the browser to stay on the whole time, along with the computer. Bittorrent clients are better run on small less power hungry boards (RPi, etc.) or on hardware that is meant to be running 24/7 anyway. For example, I run the Transmission daemon on my XigmaNAS home file server. The NAS is headless, but I can control the daemon through its remote GUI, so as soon as I click on a torrent or magnet link on the browser, it calls the local Transmission GUI which sends the info to the client on the NAS which starts the download freeing the browser and the PC of any further work.

ORMs are different from SQL generators; an eg: typesafe sql generator can be a great thing; the problem is mapping sql results (wWhich are basically rows of data) to Objects. Objects have identity, but an SQL row can be anything, even if most of the time it's a full row from a table with a primary key.

As an example, if you do a query for Object o but with partial fields, and later you query for same object but full fields, are they the same object? SQL doesn't care, but in application code you need to ensure they are the "same", because objects will flow in between functions and if you eg: do o.setAge(30), you want both of the live objects to reflect that (for the same transaction).

It's a hard problem with lots of compromises or rules, and I think most people are better off just with a query api.
It's usually a combination of things. For me, my anxiety was causing me to not do things that could have ultimately helped me have less anxiety. Meditating didn't cure that. I had to go on meds to get over that initial anxiety and now I don't need the meds as much

Sure meditation can help some people but I don't think it's as effective as a lot of people seem to think
No, I also thought that this was somewhat irrelevant ...

None of my e-commerce involves bank transfers. I would decline it as a payment method. I have no idea why anyone would be doing this.
This reset does too much IMHO, the rest of the CSS will become dependent on these styles. That said, I'm guilty of this myself. Here's mine: http://0x0.st/-7gE.css

To me, having reset styles feels like using unwanted globals in a programming language. Styles on html and body are ok though, as there's only 1 of them on a page.
I ran into so many issues with content-box a decade back I never thought about it again and always defaulted to border-box.

I think it's absurd that I can set a div to a specific width (100px, 200px, whatever) and the padding or border will make the div larger than that width.

It makes it so hard to think about designing a page when you have to continuously add together padding, margin, and border with the width to get the actual width.

You're right about flexbox and grid solving most of these issues -- and responsive design has pretty much done away with using exact pixel widths for anything, but I still run into some cases (especially around creating grid layouts that automatically reflow) where CSS columns and floats are the best approach (not often, but it still happens...) and then you need to rely on the width being the actual width, you know?
This seems to be a highly involved analysis to determine whether Armstrong was lying about his intended phrasing… but for what purpose?

However, quite dangerously, those ailments are also often misdiagnosis's.

Fibro was a misdiagnosis for me, and I nearly died because I accepted it and worked on a psychological and rehab program rather than continue to pursue symptoms.

Ask HN: How did you go from consuming to producing
I would like to limit my 'consumption' (of information) and focus on 'creating' or 'producting' something to bring more engagement to my day to day life.

I came to this conclusion as I have recently realized (and this may be obvious to others already) that while there is a absurd amount of benefit of having worlds information at your finger tips, one negative side effect is that consumption of information is so high we don't even realize it..kinda like fish not noticing water. Specially consumption without focus. In other words I'd consuming all kinds of information that may be very interesting but may never be materially useful to me or my goals. But having focus by virtue of producing I can leverage having access to the worlds information by being able to get all the information I need about something I am working on.

Long winded way of saying that I want to move from be a consumer of things to producer of something (Even if its super small at the beginning)

1) What kinds of things have you tried when you began your shift?
2) What is some advice you would give to a beginner who intends t make this transition to increase their odds of 'transitioning/sticking'
But ongoing maintenance is not, and the same does not hold for highway maintenance.

In fact, railroads pay property taxes in some states, so they actually bear even more cost than competing modes of transportation.
You couldn't have picked a worse example than CFS to include in that list - a syndrome that for decades was dismissed as psychosomatic, and that many people (read: most notably medical professionals) today still dismiss as such, despite the evidence that no, actually there's some kind of physical dysregulation going on (probably triggered in many cases by a viral infection.)
The issue with UPNP is not that it's misunderstood. The issue is that somebody implementing it has to pay hundreds of bucks to read the ISO.

Nobody cares about ISOs in the web world, everything that's not an RFC will never receive well penetrated adoption.

On the other hand printers are working on your smartphones but not on your Linux desktop. Ever thought why that is? The reason is an outdated resolve concept that needs lots of (possibly going wrong) manual configuration just to get a Multicast DNS-SD resolution feature going.

It's such a hardcore fail when considering that the goal for zerconf and DNS-SD was to ease things up, and on Linux it made things worse because of config fatigue.
Stocks app is horrible too. I just want to see the prices but it somehow pushes me to news (Apple news). There is no way to close the news for good.
The program referred to above, PSRT, is based on John Sarno's work. In his book Sarno stresses that physical causes to chronic back pain must be ruled out first. He only treated patients with his mind-body awareness methodology after investigations had ruled out physical causes.

By the way, I can highly recommend this documentary on Sarno (paywalled):

Thing is, this cartel has no legal standing. There’s nothing stopping a supermarket from selling Ontario or Vermont maple syrup.

Quebec is ~70% of world production though, but it’s up to them and them only to control the price. Everyone else benefits without restricting supply. #2 exporter is Myanmar (? this must be a mistake).

It’s kinda like OPEC losing its power as other countries up their production. (And every OPEC member cheating).
To me you seem to be so deep within a fearful delusion about climate disaster that you think it's normal and justified, good even, to micromanage the car choices of others.

> I am actually somewhat skeptical of the security advantages of disabling UPnP for this purpose. The concern is usually that malware on a machine in the local network will use UPnP to map inbound ports...

For me the concern is not malware but crappy/insecure software proudly exposing itself on the internet.

Many IP cameras will use UPnP to make their web interface publicly accessible. Because of the long history of opening router ports, seeing a random open port on my public IP was quite surprising. If you haven't recently, check your own public IP in Shodan.io .

The cameras I've used run crappy web interfaces that almost certainly do not get security updates. If an attack was successful on the camera, from there the attacker would have access to my internal network.
Why not just nationalize it at that point and just subsidize the farmers? Restricting supply is just leaving money on the table somewhere.
Sarno started with first ruling out physical causes with checkups and investigations. Only after that did he attribute pains to TMS, only if conventional treatment had not cured the pain.
I don’t like ads but also accept some ads are required. What I think shouldn’t exist is targeted ads - call them tailored or whatever the hell you like, but ads should be a static ad for a company/product just like they were on billboards and in newspapers before the internet, and it doesn’t matter if I see it or someone else. They shouldn’t use information about me to target an ad.
Even worse, it is 2035 to Ballard and West Seattle, which are much more central than Issaquah and still lack anything but bus.

I hear the latency is high, which is a challenge for all wireless earphones. So good for music and calls, but not for videos, games, singing. Do I understand correctly? :-)
Right, but I could make the same argument about influenza. We had an order of magnitude of deaths higher in 2019 compared to 2020 due to influenza. That fact alone isn't enough to justify lockdowns for influenza, so it shouldn't alone be enough to justify lockdowns for COVID.
prisoner's dilemma: if everyone is arming up with larger vehicles, will you keep a sedan just to make a point, putting your family at increasing risks?
I bought my SUV around 3 years ago. There wasn't and still isn't non-Tesla, non-crossover, somewhat affordable options. I would love it if they just made an electric version of the vehicle I own, Subaru Ascent. I would gladly trade it in for an electric version. I want a vehicle with 3 rows of seating that can fold down and doesn't try to make a statement with the design. Until companies make cars that don't scream "electric car" with their design, we will continue to see these trends. Looking forward to the F-150 Lightning because that seems like Ford gets it and I would have preordered one if the damn thing could fit in my garage length wise.
Something I only discovered recently is how much of an impact sustained mental stress/anxiety can have on your body. It puts your body into a state of fight or flight, which eventually wears you down. It's a very valid root cause to look for in diagnosis.
This is all great if the currency between the buying and business is the same (ie, USD to USD), but still does not fix transactions between entities of different currency types.

In my opinion, this is where cryptocurrency as a payment method for B2B, B2C will shine. No more dealing with foreign transaction fees and conversion fees. Plus the added benefit of not converting your money into an unstable currency (ie, Turkish Lira)
Not exactly, and if he happens to write something every week that the community finds interesting, it seems to me we're all better off. If anyone can do that it's probably patio11 :)
For example if you usually sleep at 2 am, you start by sleeping 3 hours later at 5am then sleep at 8am the next day then 12pm, then 3pm after that and so on until you reach the desired time. Seems weird but it works wonders. You may need someone to keep you accountable and stick to the set schedule for the week though.
The main constraint for East Coast ports is that they are on the wrong side of the continent from most of the import/export demand in Asia. The Panama Canal isn’t exactly cheap, and some boats don’t even fit in the Canal!

They did recently build out a new expansion of the canal but these problems still remain. What is really cool is the fact that the New York port raised a bridge deck to support the new maximums. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bayonne_Bridge
UPI can potentially be scaled to all countries. I think the biggest USP of UPI is the interoperability between payment apps(Google Pay, Paytm, PhonePe, etc), VPAs(alice@icici, bob@axis, dan@upi, 9848123456@paytm) and banks. One could have an account with bank A, create a VPA with bank B and use that VPA to pay a business through virtually any of the payment apps(GPay, Paytm, PhonePe, BHIM, etc). The main pain point UPI addresses is instant transfer, zero cost transfer irrespective of transaction size and removal of friction due to credential exchange. NPCI (the creators of UPI) are already in talks with the UAE and other neighbouring countries to build a cross nation interoperable payment stack. Since no player in the entire stack can charge a service fee, the way that payment apps have monetized UPI is by acquiring customers through payments and selling value added services like insurance, prepaid mobile recharges and mutual funds/ETFs. Interoperability allows for balancing and decentralisation of network load across multiple providers, making transactions less likely to fail. Also cross border exchange is another problem that is still unsolved. Maybe a UPI backed approach to real-time currency transfers is a pipe dream but in a ideal world every transaction, irrespective of point of origin, size or currency would be as seamless as an UPI transaction.

On a side note, I wonder if something like this could be built in the web3 space. A totally decentralised public blockchain implementation of the payment network using UPI-esque interoperability between payment providers and banks.
Good for Apple, but when it's so frequent that it's distracting, it degrades the quality of the show.
