The idea that he represents some "unbiased, independent left-wing view" is the strawman. The only people I've seen suggest that Glenn Greenwald represents the left are people on the right looking to make some political point.

Could you point me to any of his articles about the 2020 Senate Intelligence report? It seemed to prove many of the things he claimed were just conspiracy theories. I can't find any articles on his Substack about it, which is odd considering how much time he spent on Trump/Russia prior.

Yeah, but we reacted differently. We still went to school, and got jobs, and got married, and had kids, even though the world could end tomorrow.

This is such an insane quote. The CEO is claiming he just has no idea how a core part of the business functions and that he wouldn't be able to figure out the answer even if he wanted to meaning literally not a single person in the entire organization understands the core business.

That's a worse admission than saying you track your users in my mind. Also clearly a lie but just an insane response either way.
Depends. I’ve never used Tailwind, so I’ll entertain your aside. If you are mostly doing flat design, truthfully you should be designing in HTML/CSS/JS. This is a failure of setting expectations for designers. If you can get developers to learn Leetcode, get designers to code their designs.

Design in the browser with browser technology, it’s just boxes, gradients and shadows for industrial level web design at the moment. You really shouldn’t even be designing in a tool like Photoshop or Figma given the current design paradigms.

You will not iterate faster than what I am suggesting.

Edit:

The reason why we are here, why something like Tailwind and MUI exist, is mostly because we need an abstraction layer to do what a designer does on a whim. You can flick a shadow on and off on a Photoshop layer and mess with the subtlety of a drop shadow with a slider. If a designer makes a fickle change, the developer needs this abstraction to make the fickle change as fickle as the thought that made it. That’s why you have all these quick utility methods. The designer is one layer (no pun intended) removed.

In 2021 (2022 really), it’s shocking the amount of latitude we give designers to still not be able to do CSS. A half competent designer could have a modest style sheet that mostly captures their design instincts, yet here we are, unable to capture their whims and must now have an albatross utility library to have manual laborers capture the translation - all because … they still won’t learn basic shit.

And for what ultimately? These aren’t baroque art pieces, it is ultimately boxes with an aesthetic applied, all very describable with semantic HTML and CSS. But alas, our brilliant artists can’t be bothered. Here, send me your masterpiece so I can transform it for you.

Take the bootcamp on web dev. You are literally the people I want going there. Not the Classics major that needs money because they picked a stupid major. It’s you guys that need it, and deserve it.

I agree that it is problematic for the media to be so hyperbolic. However, are you saying that Florida is not having regular and more historical flooding? If so, why is articles about frequent floodings[0] wrong?

Regarding peak oil, geologists pretty much know where all the oil is. Finding a little more oil did not solve the problem. What solved the problem was the shift to electric cars and fracking for gas. These two things triggered a reduction in drilling[1] that caused the collapse of Venezuela.

Show HN: How to skip loading polyfills in modern browsers
This is where I think you're misunderstanding the ruling. Work is liable, but work has insurance to cover the liability. So the employer is covering it by means of their insurance that's what insurance does it covers liability.

The ruling is Florida like in that it's absolutely insane. There's no indication that the place of employment purchased or rents out space in this person's house. So the ruling is saying that when you work from home all workplace safety standards need to be met because work is liable for any injury caused. This means that the employer now has cause to inspect and ensure that your home environment meets all workplace safety standards as they are liable for any violations or injury from that. Apparently that means that at any time the employer can enter the premises and determine the path from the bed to the office is clear and free of obstacles and obstructions. Additionally that would mean that if they find that the person places obstacles and obstructions in the path they could be disciplined by the employer for creating an unsafe work environment.

Or this is just another Court ruling on a money grab scheme that makes no sense. Because if this does not imply that the employer can enter the premises to determine safety and quality of the work environment then the court has placed a burden on the employer that it has no ability to mitigate. Therefore it's set up for a prime money grab.

If you cannot see the abject insanity of this ruling then I'm not sure how it can be pointed out to you.
Yeah, but the device really ought to make a 911 call using the cell radio if at all possible (i.e. it has a cell radio with a signal), and only fall back to third parties if not. This is different from the normal call flow, where you might delegate all non-emergency calls to the third party.

I work on a large Next.js project that has at least 100 custom made components all using Tailwind CSS. It is, without a doubt, the best way to iterate and make changes. I will never go back to manual stylesheets. Having a separate CSS stylesheet feels like context switching and breaks the flow of development in my opinion.

Your comment reminded me of 'fin de siecle' mood of the end of 19th century. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fin_de_si%C3%A8cle

There was widespread discussion of social degeneracy, decadence, loss of spiritual values.
Quoting wikipedia:
"England's ideological space was affected by the philosophical waves of pessimism sweeping Europe, starting with philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer's work from before 1860 and gradually influencing artists internationally. R. H. Goodale identified 235 essays by British and American authors concerning pessimism, ranging from 1871 to 1900, showing the prominence of pessimism in conjunction with English ideology."
Without getting into the specifics of this Project, I'd like to make a general observation, I just made on another post today.

Most of us didn't receive any formal education or training in communication or conflict resolution. Yet healthy communication is a skill most of us have to learn, just like reading and writing.

I'd like to suggest that we all consider investing proactively in ourselves, and our teams, to learn and practice healthy communication.

I believe such proactive learning can be a standard part of every team and organization, to reduce both the quantity and intensity of any conflicts. As well, such training provides effective tools for the team to deal with "conflict" in a constructive manner.

Why do you want to "go big?" you want lots of advertiser revenue? Does that actually happen? You want to sell lots of junk through affiliate links? You're kind of doing even more of the advertising job there, with less options.

Do you have a product you're trying to sell? Is there any point in showing it and bragging about it to people who aren't interested? Very few people want life sized inflatable dragons; but the ones that do could be loyal readers and a fun blog community.

Do you just want to share your admiration of a subject you love? Then don't worry about being big, worry about being good; and enjoying the things you're writing for rather than doing things seeking attention. Many "fandoms" have a high proportion of "zero sum" thinkers who cheerfully attack anything not theirs, anyway; so seeking feedback is of debatable value in some fields.

Huh... reading through their dataset of "toxic comments", there's an awful lot of subjectivity and borderline comments that paint an... interesting picture of what they consider to be toxicity. There are definite examples of hate speech in there, but a lot of them are fairly benign too. I have to wonder what an internet without those kinds of comments would look like...

You're right about the battery life, but in exchange an AMD zephyrus is significantly more performant at a lower price. That's a fair trade off.

Wondering why anyone would subject himself to this, I had to think about John Cleese, who had a truly bad hotel while filming Monthy Python.

AI and solar energy are decades old at this point (continually improving, but they aren't new ideas). Smartphones have definitely had a huge impact on the world but they are almost entirely a system integration problem.

Biology is maybe the one field that still has a lot of novel advances coming out of it.

The other thing is look at the number of people it takes to sustain those advances. There are probably 1000x more scientists and engineers in 2020 than in 1920. So even if the absolute number of technological advances is roughly constant, the productivity is way lower.

Interesting about gen A. they have seen & helped create dramatic change from even just 10-15 yeas ago when I was in school. On LGBTQ issues, equality, & so much more. So maybe they are our saviors!

Hell I work in politics myself with decent access to politicians and help raise money. Nope. Doesn't matter in terms of power I have basically none besides perhaps getting more money spent on climate issue ads.

I think the only way to get drastic action is if a large % of voting population demands it. Sadly the defeatist attitude reinforces the powerless cycle by not voting and not participating, because they think it doesn't matter. So therefore it doesn't.

Was it a real prosecution in the Philando Castile case? Did the prosecution and judge really give an unbiased effort?

Consider this. Philando was legally exercising his right to carry a gun and informed the officer of this. He was then killed with impunity. Is it really a right to carry guns if you can be killed for doing so by the state with no repercussions? What is truly astounding is silence of all the 2nd Amendment folks at this fact. I’m sure Philando’s race had nothing to do with their silence.

Police rarely suffer consequences for their bad acts.
Paraphrasing the article: If you connect a GPS to your small or large aircraft's autopilot and you use it to fly from A to B without having a human pilot ready to take over at any point you are a) breaking the law and b) going to die sooner or later (well, we all do but you know what i mean). To make GPS a system that is aerospace-grade safe is not possible today. But everyone with a pair of eyes can legally and safely pull off the same feat. So to replicate that feature you have to somehow bring computer vision to the level of aerospace-grade reliabilty. I think that's what the author was going for here.

There is an important component I think is necessary somewhere in there, maybe lumped under "talent:" and that is a link to the zeitgeist that would let them come up with popular content.

What if this band worked hard, was talented, worked great together, but had no idea of current events or what the currently popular music was to rebel against; and instead ended up cranking out baroque Bach-like classical pieces? I bet they would remain in obscurity.
Shares in Ponzis are often easily transferable, as are penny stocks pumped by email spam and all the tokens and altcoins you mention that were created in obvious bad faith. Many of them have considerably fewer than 21 million in circulation too, and none of them claim to be worth as much as a Bitcoin. It doesn't make them good investments.

"If interest grows" is the big if and "price go up" is a very, very bad reason for interest in one particular coin to continue growing indefinitely when faced with all the alternative ways for people to park their money, from technically superior coins to investments they can actually live in (some available for less than a cryptographic string!) or stuff that pays actual dividends and gives you legal claim to actual real world assets. And for all the FUD cryptoenthusiasts like to spread about government money printing, it's the "fiat" world that has all the mechanisms that link money supply growth with market demand and real world activity, ability to shrink the money supply if its growing too fast, and the crypto world where basically the entire supply of coins has been printed in a few years by a small number of people trying to get rich and those coins will continue to exist for as long as the blockchain is maintained whether people want to buy them or not.

There were a few points in the doc where some of the Beatles would come in saying "I was thinking about this song last night while watching TV" and they'd hum it out or play some of the notes in their head on the piano. We saw Paul mess around with the guitar in real time as he slowly put together the chords for Get Back. Moments like this, to me, feel like times where that natural talent is necessary.
Science is not about innovation. Science is about tiny little results that by themselves have no immediate benefit, but slowly improve our overall understanding, and eventually lead to an unexpected benefit. Science is not developed in order to solve a business problem - it is purely an advancement in overall knowledge of the world (the traditional aim of natural philosophy). In this sense, science is not compatible with business interests.

I don't recall the exact dates those events took place but the New York state senate was not in democratic hands in 2014. Republicans won the majority in the 2014 general election. Prior to that, the IDC worked with the republicans and that coalition had control.

> I'm just pointing out that "bailing out" a person who committed fraud when taking out a loan isn't a good thing for society to do.

Ok, and bailing out the financial institutions and traders that perpetuated that fraud "isn't a good thing" either, AND you said that what the home buyers did was "worse" for "reasons".

Except all of the reasons you listed are exactly what those traders and financial institutions also did, and arguably they have professional duties not to do those things and to in fact report them. You're also neglecting that home buyers aren't professionals in this, they're supposed to be guided by the professionals, but the mortgage lenders were encouraging people to inflate their assets as standard practice.

Where you lay the most of the blame on this issue honestly blows my mind.
Why would the government do that? They're probably one of their best customers
