I love Safari, too - my issue is that I use different OS's in parallel and not having bookmarks/settings sync is a big usability issue :/ so I'm stuck with Ungoogled Chromium, where I can at least solve for the bookmarks sync.

Developers are typically required to include on street parking in their developments before the right-of-way is deeded over to the public.

There's rarely any public subsidies for parking. That's largely a myth. It's paid for in the price of the development by the developer (and is usual a government or zoning requirement).

I think there are few differences.

1) Covid-19 was more dissimilar from previous coronaviruses than Omicron is from current ones.

2) There is a lot more covid-19 in the world now so rare occurrences are more common.

3) There was other evidence for the lab leak hypothesis. A cover up from China, a viral research lab in the city with the outbreak, etc...
> While I encourage everyone eligible to get vaccinated, the vaccines aren't very effective in people with malfunctioning immune systems.

Isn't the fact that folks with malfunctioning immune systems are surviving rather than dying evidence that the vaccine is working? Granted, their survival has the side effect of a prolonged infection, but immunocompromised folks don't fare well against COVID.
While my laptop definitely got more unstable after being upgraded (might be better with a clean install), I could never put it on my actual gaming machine, because I play VR and right now it is a coin flip if VR just won't work for you at all.

> The Vanity Fair article said how FBI only seized human remains and those artifacts that were obviously illegally obtained. Miller got to keep majority of his collection and wasn't even prosecuted. No word in the article what happened to rest of the collection after his death.

The VF article does not say "obviously illegally obtained" but that the FBI confiscated without a search warrant and against legal advice took more than just items they knew were illegally obtained.

From the article: Some of the agency’s attorneys argued that Carpenter would need to establish probable cause on every single item, even though there were countless artifacts for which Carpenter hadn’t obtained evidence or even seen. Miller, for example, told Carpenter about an Anasazi pot Carpenter believed was illegal. But Miller had hundreds of Anasazi pots, and Carpenter didn’t have specific information on those, only the one. Establishing probable cause on each would be unreasonable and essentially impossible. Instead, Carpenter argued that Miller’s collection was “commingled,” meaning the FBI could seize a whole set of pots based on evidence of one. After back and forth with the Department of Justice, Carpenter won out.

It also says they siezed a stack of his passports.
At least to most normal people "google" would have sounded like a silly, made up word. Or like, the most association it might have had would be to something like googley eyes.

DuckDuckGo has the disadvantage of not only sounding silly, but also being composed of silly-sounding real words. And not having a secret geeky meaning that people find out about and then feel like they're part of an elite club.

If directors want movies to be seen, they should consider the home viewing environment. Just as the article says many films consider the home sound environment and mixing for non-pristine environments.
I expect residential parking is pretty price-insensitive. Maybe more households would forgo owning a marginal second car. But if a households needs a car, they need a car. And if that means paying $100+/month that's just something they're going to have to eat.
Maybe it's just me, but we all place an awful lot of trust giving vendors essentially all credit card details possible AND where we live so that they're capable of skimming a self defined sum off by themselves. It's like an inherently insane system. We're supposed to be the one wiring the cash, not the vendor themselves with our data.
Zoom's New Attendance Tool Will Snitch on Attendees Who Are Late to a Meeting
Aaaahhhhh!!!!

Thank you for this comment, truly enlightening (I am a mathematician and know 0 physics). Shall have to think about it.
The Gilded Age was generally regarded to have ended about 1900. If you mean the term more broadly and less generally, it still ended in 1929, with the Depression, not with the war.
It’s exactly this.

Imagine if we restricted how many cars could be made a year, with the predictable result of new and used car prices steadily increasing every year. And then when anyone suggested what maybe we should let car makers make more cars, you got a bunch of people complaining about the property values of the cars they already owned, or that this would ruin car culture.
This is why I generally only interview for jobs that are seeking work within my tech stack, or projects which haven't yet formed into a developed solution.

I am beyond tired in working to convince teams about the adoption of simple solutions, everyone has their own opinions and skills, and people are too often difficult to change. I can quickly develop proof of concepts (much faster than my competition) because of the tools and methods I use, and I can run it all locally, or in the cloud. It's reliable and used across many prominent clients as well... If others can beat me to suggesting a solution, that's fine as well, but ultimately, what works efficiently based on the requirements wins, and that's what's fair.
Two interesting takes on SB-9 (the Senate bill mentioned in the article):

https://www.livablecalifornia.org/sb-9-allows-8-units-on-all...

https://www.jdsupra.com/legalnews/sb-9-it-s-not-a-duplex-bil...

Accordingly, if a lot is over 2,400 sqft, one could split the lot into 2 (minimum 1,200 sqft is needed per part), and build a duplex, an ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit) and a JADU (Junior Accessory Dwelling Unit) in each part, ending up with 8 units in total.

Simply adding a delay to ensure the sentence doesn't appear after it is spoken would fix this. It's something that unavoidably happens with Saturday Night Live's transcript, for example, and I prefer it for comedy.
>Kyle exercised an incredible measure of discipline in his restraint—not shooting wildly into a mob that was overtaking him, only firing on those who were attacking him.

He was an active shooter, and thus a threat to anybody around, and the people tried to defend themselves from that threat. Why those people got denied the right of self-defense and treated as attackers instead? I think it is a total miscarriage of justice that an active shooter successfully claimed self-defense. Not shooting wildly into a mob is really a pretty low, a new low i'd say, bar of responsible gun safety. You seeing laudable restraint and discipline in that is one of the best illustrations of the gun problem in the society.
There's certainly a lot of iconography around that but I think that statement is dramatically overselling the strength and universality of that image. Millions of people have chosen suburbs since that was so heavily subsidized in the post-WWII era and limited supply meant there weren't good alternatives in many cases, but I would be careful assuming that this a deep preference rather than picking the default option.

In particular, I think you'd see very different responses when people were asked to choose realistic options: it's easy to say you like the idyllic image realtors promote with luxurious houses, perfect landscaping, happy kids at great schools, etc. but quite another to say you want to spend a couple hours a day stuck in an expensive car because there's almost nothing to do within walking distance, take on additional expenses (landscaping, lower density requires higher taxes for infrastructure, etc.), and otherwise live the actual suburban lifestyle for most people rather than the postcard version.
> My ideal programming screen is a 1:1 square

I have never tried it, but to me that seems ideal too. There seems to be close to zero demand for these, though, so I could only find this very expensive and not very high DPI monitor: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1138908-REG/eizo_ev27...

$1,429.00 for a 1920 x 1920 monitor? Meh. I'd rather stick with a single large landscape monitor.
COVID-19 is a serious public health problem but let's not exaggerate the risk. There was never any realistic chance of losing 3% of our population. The CDC estimated the fatality rate at 0.6% back when very few people were vaccinated. Now with widespread vaccination the fatality rate is much lower.

no worries, thanks, and congrats!

the bittersweetness of going back to work. rough, but getting paychecks again is nice. :-D

i just re-pivoted back to product mgmt/owner - not exclusively, but def has the focus of my search again - too early to tell if there is any difference, and not sure i'll be able to tell even when i close something - might just be a numbers game, luck, etc.

i just finished a call for a solutions architect as part of a prof services team - which would be fine - it's pretty light in terms of the tech focus, maybe middle, as far as architect roles go. i can still code and stuff, but def don't prefer to do it more than 15 min/day.

> To my knowledge no booster is approved for use within 6 months of another shot

Government recommends booster after five to six months in my country. To clarify, they do not yet recommend boosters to the end of time, just a booster after the second.

> 6 months is overkill unless you're extremely high risk

It is a general recommendation here.
Ubuntu update notification allows the user to optionally see details of updates: https://www.addictivetips.com/app/uploads/2021/01/ubuntu-upd...

From there you can see what is being update and what the update does. You can even choose not to install one update or another or even not update a system component or another.

So, if you're afraid a new LO version may break compatibility with documents you work on but GNOME updates will improve usability, you can disable one specific update. Very simple and user friendly. For users who don't know, understand or don't care, they will simply click update.

Canonical is also planning to use snaps for some desktop or core components so they can have security updates automatically installed in the background. This is a somewhat polemic topic, but I understand their rationale: some people simply choose never to update because they have been burned by bad past experiences. Of course, the more advanced user can still disable it.
"Anthem Blue Cross is the trade name of Blue Cross of California" is why this is (ca.gov).
So you just use regulations synonymous with laws? Like the example of "no regulations" is that you can just shoot people that bother you?

Nobody argues that there should be no laws, so that is a pretty useless discussion.

But you can not say "without regulations, people would be free to murder each other, therefore all regulations are good". Some laws can be good, some can be bad.

"The author is also clearly not a leftist based on the contents of the article, and his allusions to centrally planned societies (aka their understanding of communism) as a fool's errand."

The more regulations you get, the further down you are on the path to centrally planned society. Regulations are central planning. Like demanding a minimum wage is central planning, it is literally planning economy, setting prices for things with disregard of the markets.

So if the author is in favor of that, he is a leftist, plain and simple.

Look at the way he writes: he laments that "Everyone seems to increasingly be in it for themselves, not for society." - and you want to tell me he is not following a collectivist, leftist ideology, yearning for a socialist utopia?
Yes, after every compilation we send the full bundler state. This is saved on the context so you can use that to analyze the output. In one of the examples in the blog post we show the transpiled code for example.

A hidden "feature" is that we automatically run tests defined (e.g. index.test.js) using jest, and dispatch the test results. So you can listen to that as well.
If you're building a chip for a server, workstation, laptop, smartphone, then you'll want to adhere to a platform spec profile.

RVA22[0] is the first such profile, and among other important things which go a long way to ease cross-vendor software compatibility, it does require RVA22U and RVA22S, which in turn require a set of extensions.

>The current thinking is that new variants are most likely to evolve in immunocompromised patients who experience prolonged infections.

A very good point.

At the same time, in areas where vaccination rates are low, more folks are infected and a larger proportion of the immunocompromised (as well as the at-large) population will likely be infected.

Making places like South Africa, with less than 1/3 of the population vaccinated, more likely to be reservoirs for the virus, increasing the likelihood of both more variants and an easier foothold for those variants to have their initial spread.
I don't think technology has to bring us closer together.

I agree with you that the current default state is bringing everyone into the same sphere. I don't believe that is actually what we want.

I don't want to listen to every Bob's or Mary's political opinion or outrage take. I'm happy debating with a small group that has agreed upon rules (and excludes people who don't follow those rules). Likewise, there are plenty of political discussion groups that want to exclude me because I don't agree with their rules.

Technology should work to make small, discrete groups able to form while ignoring physical proximity.
That's a pretty good point actually, cash worked perfectly fine without this feature for centuries.

He's obviously to blame but giving every college grad the ability to buy/sell options may perhaps not be in a young investor's best interest. There's a reason other brokerage firms ask how long you've traded for before allowing margins/options/etc.
I was referring to 'larceny' in my comment as being a centralized rule.
Yep. You nailed it, man. Everyone who watches TV or movies is a big ol' dum-dum consuming real bottom of the barrel entertainment. They should really be doing more enlightened things with their time, like... commenting on Hacker News about things to let people know that they're not involved in the consumption of such drivel.
Let's be clear: he didn't even buy stock, he bought CALL OPTIONS.

If he put $400K into Alibaba stock, he might still have $150K or $200K, depending on when he did it.

He put all his life savings on what he considered a 'safe' investment in call options with a specific expiry date.

I love investing and taking big risks, but this is idiotic. His description of what call options are ("a leveraged bet on an underlying stock, which helps you increase the upside (or downside) of the bet you're trying to make") is simplistic at best.
> Computers are so hard to run now, that we are supposed to give up and pay a subscription to someone ....

Computers were hard to run when installing an OS meant you burnt CDs.

And medium tier "webhosting" meant an expensive control panel with no root access.

I'm amazed how easy things are today, you can setup and tear down operating systems in a minutes, and there's lots of medium tier server competition and a few big players for bigger projects.

As an iPad owner, Safari is great, it does the job for occasional browsing, displaying things to someone (small gatherings, meetings, family, etc).

As a Linux Desktop user however, I don't care about UI speed since my browser usage is mostly static, a few documentation pages, a lot of heavy tabs at work (JIRA, Gmail, Chat, Teams, web related projects, etc). Maybe I have a powerful desktop bias since my Ryzen doesn't seem to have any visible performance hit, either Chromium, Brave, Firefox, Vivaldi open tabs in a flash. On my laptop (also Linux) every browser feels a bit sluggish though with Chromium being the fastest. Macs (specially the new M1s) are a different beast and feels like Safari is specially optimized for them.
Ask HN: Best Mac browser for web development
I really like Safari for my daily browsing but the development tools are not what I am looking for. Two problems with them: 1) it occasionally stops being able to evaluate expressions in the console and 2) it doesn't appear to have a way of automatically accessing event listeners.

So what is the best option? Firefox or a Chromium browser? And if Chromium is there a version of the FF Deve edition for Chromium?
It's a bit weird to jump to "flamethrowers in the jungle" instead of "second-generation vaccines", isn't it?

Etymological note: book itself seems to come from the beech tree, and referred originally to tablets inscribed on wood.

https://www.etymonline.com/word/book

It's also worth noting that what we now refer to as a "book" is more properly a codex, also ultimately from a reference to a tree trunk, but defined as a collection of leaves of paper or parchment (or folios or signatures) sewn into a binding with covers, as distinguished from a scroll.

https://www.etymonline.com/word/codex

https://www.etymonline.com/word/code

And of course, scrolls and tablets were the original forms of books.

The notion that a book must be a specific physical representation of paper, binding, and covers, or even physical is ... at odds with origin and usage.
This possible outcome has occurred to me before, but it's hard to imagine a breaking of society which doesn't include the hunting-down of at least some of the rich. I don't know how they could truly escape the downfall.
Are the colors sticking around? Last time I checked they were "limited time". (Unless you already applied one of their colors)
Health insurance is what holds back universal health care, along with hospitals themselves. Both of them are incentivized to raise costs for consumers.
High-rise is not the only other way to reach density. I think major European cities like Paris, Barcelona, Berlin have a very livable and lively format of continuous blocks of 5-8 story buildings.
>This is also why people 70+ are almost fully vaccinated in the US. For that age range it’s an extremely serious disease with a high chance of killing them after infection.

Older people certainly dominate the vulnerable groups, but there are many other people living with various forms of immune system dysfunction. This is why the rest of us need to mask, vaccinate, and get boosters to minimize our chance of propagating the disease to the more vulnerable parts of our population. Not doing so is basically saying you don't care about other people.
