My house is better than my parents where I grew up to start with, my car is electric, I have free electricity from the sun, a TV larger than anyone could imagine back then (with films for £1 with the same quality as a cinema), I can communicate with almost anyone on the planet, via video, for free (including free translation), I can buy a computer like on Star Trek that I can talk to for £20, life is magical.

It's quite possible that the 5 second TTL was a foot-gun. It was best practice at the time but not necessarily the right thing to do!
The most common way it works is that a snapshot of all holders of the governance token is taken at a certain point in time and a proposal is made, which all holders in the snapshot are able to vote on by signing their response.

Blender already accepts donations on Ethereum mainnet at 0x9De8991C56F622175274fb358f981AF6F903a799. The proposal which passed was to send a "one-time" donation to Blender, but it's not clear if they're going to be sending MANA (which is the currency in use on Decentraland) or if they're going to send a USD equivalent stablecoin. Unless the Blender devs are willing to be paid in MANA, it will need to be converted to fiat at some point.
There is also a phenomenon where drivers (car and truck) just forget about motorcycles coming their way. They see it, they register it's there but then just... forget about it.

Imagine a car wants to turn and waits and a line of cars pass with a motorcycle at the end, then it's extremely dangerous for the motorcyclist. Because our brains interpret dangers relative to us, it sometimes just filters out the not-so-dangerous things. The motorcycle is relatively harmless to a car or truck thus drivers sometimes filter it out as if it doesn't exist.

What happens then is the car driver just waits for the cars to pass and then begins to turn while the motorcycle is still coming up, often resulting in a crash.

There is an easy fix, though: just say "motorcycle" out loud when this situation occures. It's really as easy as that.

>Open Source provides a way for some authors to publish software optimized for quality

This is literally true because of the word "some" in there. But if you mean that it especially leads to quality, rather than just "some quality happens", open source programs are notably deficient in many ways. Programmers don't like writing and don't need documentation for their own program; are familiar with the program's functions so they don't need a good UI; and they have different needs from average users, so their programs may not meet those users' needs very well. Whether you want to call that quality is, I suppose, up to you.
I’m a landlord too and this sounds suspiciously like an excuse for bad behavior. You can make a big difference in peoples lives by not being a greedy a*hole. Delaying rent increases for a few years can have huge positive impacts on individual lives.

No it won’t change the system but a bad system shouldn’t be used to justify personal bad behavior.

A. Not an immigrant, born here and parents were born here. We live in New York because of the discomfort (ahem, racism) experienced outside of New York. I know this wasn’t your implication but want to emphasize that not all Asians are immigrants. For a lot of us, coastal cities are our home.

B. An american would definitely choose to live in Tokyo versus a small town in the middle of nowhere. That’s why ex pat communities are a thing! No harm in wanting a little bit of home abroad.

C. I get plenty of America in New York. It’s not like the city is some asian bubble. Indeed part of the reason I want to live in New York is to have access to asian food and asian people without living in a solely asian neighborhood. I like having multiple cultures in one neighborhood.
> The whole thing is about processes, and tools (jira)… the complete opposite.

I don’t know how you can read the Scrum guide and get to that comment.

JIRA is not Scrum and vice versa.

The Scrum system is barely a system: 2 lists; 3 roles; 4 meetings; an exhortation to continually adjust (aiming at improvement); a recommendation you measure; guidance to include the “client” fairly often. That’s about it.

This JIRA thing is just one tool among dozens of optional options. Use scraps of paper if it suits you.
> for an active maintainer who is currently accepting donations (ESPECIALLY recurring donations), making a good-faith effort to deliver on requests from supporters (certainly bugs, and ideally features) is expected

Even if the maintainer makes it clear and explicit that donations don't grant such expectations? If a donor feels entitled despite clarity from the maintainer, that's on the donor.

If you want to pay the maintainer to work on a feature you want, the proper course should be to just contact the maintainer and work something out, no?
I thought I did then I tried to formulate a reply to you (see below).

The best I can come up with is that we each create our universe, and so there are only two states for a person: a universe with them alive in it, or nothing. But I admit I don't see the significance of that view, possibly because I have it wrong.

Low frequencies are heavily affected by both how well the canal is sealed, and the volume of air that is in the (partially) sealed area. The adaptive EQ does seem slightly over-engineered; given that people tend to be forgiving of a fairly large amount of bass emphasis, you can just tune for the worst-case. However people don't generally buy Apple products to get something under engineered...
Omicron Post #4
You only made the front page with this post because you abused the deletion system badly, along with using a baity title. I was willing to let the latter pass when I first saw it, because it was also fun, but when I saw that you'd posted your site and then deleted it over 30 times—that's outrageous. The community expects us not to allow such manipulation.

Lots of people make fun websites and post them here without resorting to such tricks. I don't think it would be fair to those users to let you get away with breaking the rules this badly.

I don't think this is so hard to understand? You're totally welcome in this community if you want to be a good community member along with everyone else. Above all, that means using it for curiosity, not just as a promotional channel.

Never let me go by Kazuo Ishiguro.

It’s hard to categorise, nominally science fiction but not out of place with literary fiction. The writing is plain but it’s quite an emotional book to read with a very dark twist that creeps up on you.
They can, it's just that the trade-off isn't worth appeasing a few HN readers.

>The reason earbud companies use non-replaceable rechargeable batteries is simple: It makes the earbuds smaller. Earbud buyers generally prefer more compact devices, but that means the earbuds have less room inside for all the necessary components. Designers need to cram a Bluetooth chip and processor, an antenna, a battery, drivers, controls, and microphones into something that’s often the size of a thimble. Replaceable battery compartments require more earbud real estate, and in a competitive field where tiny is currently king, companies don’t want to risk their earbuds being flops by making them bigger.

I like having the table of contents on the left. I often have to scroll back to the top to look at the table of contents again.
The font size is rather large though: for many pages you have to scroll to see the full table of contents. Seeing the full table of contents at a glance is a critical feature for me.
I would use this extension if you could scale the table of contents like you can for the main text.
It's been two years, whoever's "fault" it is, it hasn't been resolved.

Take even the least charitable view: you've been misreading the situation and this person objectively isn't toxic. If others at the team get along with this person, or shrug it off, then it's a sign the team isn't for you.

In either case, the manager makes a choice in their non-action with the 'toxic' teammate. So if anything, the manager is mostly covering up for their own poor management that will come out when you leave the team.

Life is short, frankly you don't owe anyone anything, make the choice that's best for you

>consistency ... would be nice

I'd say necessary. People will assume (correctly) that this is human rights being used as a stalking horse for realpolitik. Which is frankly worse for human rights than no action at all.
This logic can also apply to hobby projects and interests. "There are amazing artists or software programmers building world class stuff, what can I add?" is a common enough refrain I've encountered here on HN.

It's not just about the end results, it's about being the person or seeking the experiences you want to have.

Maybe you want to be the person who builds companies. Go build one. Maybe you want to make 3d designs or game engines or hack on circuits. Buy the book and get started. You're not likely to be the next maestro, no one is. But you do bring your unique identity and a fresh perspective which those before did not have.

Even if you don't build a world changing something or other at least you did the things you wanted to do and were the person you wanted to be. Even getting close to that is a life well lived, and lucky and privileged in many eyes.
What exactly is the abstraction here? McLuhan is describing something very concrete that is not obvious to most people.
tcsh+starship is a pretty nice combination.
But once you have abstract S/M/L/XL estimates for some tasks, what do you do with that information? How many S tasks are equivalent to 1 M task? If the team completed 3 M tasks and 3 S tasks last sprint, how does that help you plan for your next sprint? While story points have their own issues, at least tasks' relative size differences are clear and different tasks of different sizes can be scheduled.
Awair's phone app lists both AQI and PM2.5, and PM2.5 is available on the device itself by pressing buttons to change the display. Somewhat confusingly, the indoor AQI is on the Outdoor tab.
The problem is that anger is addictive.

Even if humans didn't understand this fact about human nature, the engagement maximizing algorithms absolutely homed in on it. It's also pretty obvious today that the average tech-bro sneering at the humanities a decade back didn't understand this phenomenon or thought it was unimportant.

This short-sightedness from Big Tech is why there is such a societal backlash towards tech today, which is sad because much good has also come out of tech.
And add DevOps to it, because then one can get rid of run == cost savings.

I've had to banish a good 40+ subreddits off my feed manually using RES to just deal with the politics spam.

And even then, browsing /r/popular is just awful. Elimination games. People blatantly asking for personal information from teenagers. "Tell me your favorite X and we will judge you" Dumb NSFW 'questions'. Repost bots for content from years ago. Misinformative titles. "Unpopular opinion" threads.

It's a mountain of trash to wade through to get any decent content.

That's understandable - if you'd like a work around for now, the app has a 'pause' feature (which, if active, will cease to proxy traffic completely - you can just turn it on briefly as needed, then 'pause' it after loading the article).

The reason for the root cert is that in short order (after cleaning up our infra, etc.) we're actually planning to expand to a full-spectrum adblocker.
Also it breaks IPA rendering for some reason. For example here [0] many of the diacritic marks (especially most of the less common ones) are off to the right.

> To this day I still don’t understand how one can read the agile manifesto and somehow get to scrum.

You don't. I mean, literally, the relationship is inverted: Scrum predates Agile; the creators of the former later went on to contribute to the Agile Manifesto.

No, it doesn't.
Not the original person you asked but I do the same thing and I would buy them a new one if I damage it. I'm confident that I'm not going to damage their things.

And if it's something where I'm not confident, or its not replaceable / way too expensive, that's when I'll decline. But typical computer repair or building is really easy and safe. Need help delidding your CPU or some other uncommon thing? I'll give advice but I'm not handling it.
In a lot of delivery companies drivers are forbidden (or discouraged) to turn through oncoming traffic, I knew that about RoyalMail and DHL, but here is an article about UPS:

>UPS have moved away from trying to find the shortest route and now look at other criteria to optimise the journey. One of their methods is to try and avoid turning through oncoming traffic at a junction. Although this might be going in the opposite direction of the final destination, it reduces the chances of an accident and cuts delays caused by waiting for a gap in the traffic, which would also waste fuel.

It’s boggles the mind how one can look at the long arc of history and come to the conclusion caring progressives were the problem all along.
Unfortunately, this is wrong (objectively, not subjectively).

Even more unfortunately this is how everybody is taught to drive. I don't know how the exam looks in Czech Republic but here in Poland there is a lot of backing and the driving teachers set mirrors this way to make it easier for learners to pass the exam.

Side mirrors are designed to fill the blind spot on the side of your car. If you see the side of your car your side mirror mostly sees the same thing that your rear view mirror. You don't need three mirrors to show you what's behind your car.

The correct way to set the side mirror is to imagine the cone of the rear view mirror and the cone of your peripheral vision and point your side mirror directly between those cones.

I set my side mirrors so that they point outwards a tiny bit but if I move my head to the side I can see the side of my car.

In my car this is enough to close my blind spot but still enough to observe the side of my car while parking.

I almost always park with my back first because I don't have stereoscopic vision and it is easier for me to judge distances when parking with back of my car first. And I don't have any problem -- I just move my head to the left or to the right as needed. When you park you can move your car as slow as you need and stop if you need more time.

But when you drive at highway speeds you may not have that much time and this is when you need to be able to observe around your car in a split second without moving your head.

I noticed when I almost smashed into a car in my blindspot. I started reading and I found that I have been using mirrors the wrong way entire time. Here, I found an example link for you. https://www.reddit.com/r/LifeProTips/comments/lskpl/lpt_how_...

I can tell you it takes a little bit of effort to adjust to new mirror position. You can get used to moving your head during parking (looks silly but you can park just fine).

But you will thank me the first time you merge, especially at an angle and see how easy it is since you are seeing EVERYTHING with your mirrors and your peripheral vision, without needing to move your head.
I don't believe Forward Email runs a blog, but this article[0] has a fairly good summary of how forwarding works and why one might want to set that up. The short version, in the context of this thread, is that it allows you to accept email on your own domain without running your own email servers. And if you ever want to change email providers in the future (or start running your own servers) you just need to edit some settings either in your DNS records or your Forward Email account; the email address everyone uses to contact you remains the same. Whereas if everyone knows you as username@gmail.com then you need to somehow get word out to your entire contact list—potentially without access to your old email account!—to let them know your new address.

Forward Email does a pretty good job with onboarding new users, in my opinion. Yes, some technical know-how is expected (you do need to know how to update DNS records for your domain, for example) but they give you step-by-step instructions both for setting up the MX and TXT records in DNS and for configuring your Google Mail account (or possible others, I didn't check) to allow sending email using your new address. I found it simpler to set up the forwarding itself than to go around to all my accounts and update the email addresses; that part is still a work in progress.

Another reason for the trend (in phones too) is better water resistance.
Is that true? Nifty.

I don't pay much attention to printers. I'd always found that laser printers produced more readable text. Ink jets always seemed a little blurry. At least, in the ones that I'd looked at -- down-scale stuff for the home market.

I stopped using inkjets at all because I used them so rarely that the ink would dry up. When I need photo prints or colored prints, I send them out. My home printer is an elderly laser printer that just keeps chugging along and producing lovely, sharp text.

Good to know that the ink jets have gotten better, but my use case still probably means I won't own one.
but community driven FOSS is made mostly by people building something they themselves want...

Exactly. That is how FOSS solutions appear. If you want something specifically produced, you have exactly two choices: a) you and your mates produce it yourselves at no charge or b)pay somebody to do it for you.

If you're paying somebody to do it for you, you're in effect purchasing commercial software that is made for profit. So you might as well lobby/pay/blackmail Microsoft for that 'extra something' to appear in the next version of Windows.

Using Linux is a personal choice. Nobody is ever forced to use Linux. So it's pointless ranting about Linux. If you don't like something, fix it yourself. Or use Windows like those others happily do.

> do human ear canals vary that much to need a mic?

Not an expert in human ear canals, but over the years I've learned that if I am looking into a field that I am not familiar with, it's always more complicated than I expected/imagined.

Sounds like a compander for the lower frequencies. That's technically "adaptive" to the input audio, but not adaptive to the acoustics of the output environment. I expect that to for the second type of adaption, you'd need to measure it, which would necessitate some sort of input, such s a mic.
