* Metrics-driven product development which focuses on things like "engagement", so more popups and analytics shite.

* HIPPO or designer-driven requirements for "cool" (for various opinions on "cool") requiring large JS payloads, massive banner images and videos etc at the cost of accessibility and lighter page size (as well as larger surface area for UI bugs).

* Developers working with high-end machines and fast internet connections, so lack of empathy for users with neither.

* Scrum/agile hamster-wheel methodology so developers are focused on tiny atomized tasks, preventing holistic improvements.

KISS. Keep the HTML minimal and the full page reload is often just as fast as an AJAX call. For the parts that need to be realtime/interactive I use Livewire. Livewire is annoying to work with sometimes, and the author got carried away with that whole AlpineJS nonsense (reinventing the whole problem), and Livewire is still immature, but the basics work well (just keep your Livewire components extremely simple and it works great).

Maybe it actually is something I should try and it sounds like there have been some major improvements over the past few years. I dislike EndNote, but that doesn't mean the same issues exist with Zotero, so maybe I will give it a try. I should also define my terms better. When I talk about professionals publishing, I am referring more to corporate publishing houses, agencies, and pharma and chemical industry publishing. Academic publishing is probably the most professional type of publishing of all, so I should clarify that.

This is a good point to bring up but kind of lands in a different place than the GP's argument. Cars aren't boosted because a rational analysis has determined that the negative externalities are worth it; rather, cars are boosted despite the evidence that the measures you mention are cost-effective ways to save lives.

The continued subsidy of cars is proof that emotion trumps reason.
My father dated somebody who was manic depressive and his life was a living hell but he wouldn't leave because he worried what might happen to her. I was living at his house after the service while in college and it was as if he himself were bipolar. She would treat him like shit so he would be sad/upset and difficult to be around. He would have a free schedule so we would plan a day and then he would get a call that she "needs" him so he would immediately leave. Then she'd kick him out and in two days "need" him again.

Having depression or being bipolar doesn't give you the right to treat other humans like trash.

The only thing anyone who controls websites cares about is profit. Nothing other than money matters in our capitalistic society. No human virtue. No social virtue. Nothing beyond money.

As some have said here, the dark patterns are thought to produce better results. Those results are profits and nothing else. Negative consequences that do not reduce profit are never considered.

Until we change to a social compact based on something more kind than the love of money, we will see nothing but evil.

Lab leak doesn't necessarily mean it was man made.

They were storing coronavirus samples from all over the world here, it could have been a contamination accident, yet still a "lab leak"

We've always known humans do dangerous things, the takeaway is that you need safety procedures to mitigate risk.

The scandal that needs to be addressed is the dangerous experiments being done in BSL2 conditions and every country deciding their own tolerance for safety.

These are internationally supported and funded projects. There is no excuse for the stakeholders not to be on the same page about safety procedures.

Something that got me back into daily running was to listen to an engrossing audiobook[1] that you only listen to while walking/running or whatever other exercise you can manage.

I couldn’t believe that I was looking forward to my run just to progress the story. Sometimes the book was getting so good I would spend an extra hour meandering around before returning home.

Worth a shot. Also, bluetooth headphones are a must (I use Jabra Elites). Accidentally karate-chopping some wired headphones out of your ears makes them insufferable during exercise.

It’s a good habit because you can also parlay it into listening to things while cooking and doing chores around the house, things I used to avoid as wastes of time until I hacked myself with audio content.

Good luck.

Something I haven't seen anyone mention yet is demand-pull inflation. I think the reality is a lot of manufacturers and distributors have been reluctant to raise prices, feeling that the demand surge is temporary. In truth, I think it's likely that prices just haven't caught up yet. That means demand has outpaced supply for that whole period.

I think there are other reasons for the shortage, but they've been exacerbated by the inflation issue.
I eBay them, even if I get basically nothing for the sale. If someone else wants it, they're using it for something.

On the contrary. It's a cover story being blown. The system was already operating at the edge of its capacity, and now it's toppling over.
The breakdown I'd like to see is a histogram of where calories come from, binned by the size of the farm they are grown on.

Most farms (and farmland) in the US are still classified as family farms. As long as they are closely held, farms managing thousands of acres are family farms.

The good news if if you convince an industrial farmer that something will be more profitable, they will do it, at least in aggregate they don't resist better methods for no reason.
I didn’t know that and would need to see a source. Wuhan is a major city so I just don’t know how many bats (of that specific type) live there. Also heard similar to the below comment that it was quite far away. Also seems they had just moved the entire lab to a different location. Jamie Metzl does a 5 hour podcast with Lex Fridman about it. I find his case very compelling as a layman. Not that it is definitely a lab leak, but that its obviously possible and baffling to dismiss as a real possibility.
The Universal Control Plane – Crossplane Composition
I first noticed this in college that every novel about Africa had an acacia tree at sunset on the cover. And even if they don't have the tree often novels will have a sunset theme as if the jacket designer is trying to say "nothing to see here".

But maybe they're really trying to say their visual information about Africa comes entirely from the Lion King poster.
I mean, it should be a given that when it comes to 3D stuff on the web that iOS browser(s since they're all forced to use Safari underneath) will crash.

Anyhow, works fine with Chrome on Linux and on Android. And probably every other combo that's not Apple.
Show HN: Command-line tool for learning by repetition
> To me, the best way forward is to revisit the point at which you cease to be a protected service provider and instead become an unprotected publisher. The Facebooks and TikToks of the world act an awful lot like publishers. Treat them like it.

So do you think it would be better if Facebook didn't do any moderation at all?
Hey HN!

Part of my learning process is to use repetition techniques: just run through a deck of question & answer pairs. I wanted to have something that would run on a command-line, use a simple text format for deck files, and allow me to either type answers or think of them (just like flashcards). I deliberately didn’t want any multi-session state / management, spaced-repetition algorithms etc.

Ideally I’d write it in C but I wanted to try `ink`. It’s also my first npm package so I hope I didn’t miss anything. If you happen to try it out and run into any issues please let me know.

Thanks and enjoy!
Unrelated to the content of the article, what's up with censoring "wtf" in the title? I often see links with "WTF" (usually in caps) in the title, so I don't think this is coming from the HN side. Is this an edit by the submitter? This makes it a bit hard to understand what is the article about. Or is "wtf" not okay now? I've never lived in America so it's hard to understand what's okay and what's not around swearing.

There has been 5,443,453 deaths from COVID-19 so far, with no end in sight. Just counting the deaths, that's a pretty large impact from something that just appeared two years ago. Not to mention the psychological impact the pandemic has on humans, which is even more than just counting the deaths. This is why productivity is falling off a cliff. Everything changed underneath our feet and people are starting to feel the long-term effects of having a virus lurking around every corner.

I'm fully aware I'm projecting now! But I'm interpreting your mixed signals and incoherent rambling are some kind of ad hoc beacon signaling out-of-band "it's fucking hard and I don't know what to do, send help" but the framing you are in can't allow you to say that out loud because that is not "sucking it up". So you'll go on believing that the gender roles serve you well because "at least I'm not having a nervous breakdown". Until you do. And then I hope, you'll seek and accept help.

For me, seeking help came in the form of starting doing work in the context of a national movement affiliated with the global movement Men Engage. But that movement see the traditional gender roles more as harmful rather than serving a purpose like you believe so I'm guessing that's not it for you. http://menengage.org/about-us/what-we-believe/

Basically demand is increasing by orders of magnitude, supply was barely keeping up but there was a symbiosis. Any disruption created a massive backlog.

Shadows Of The Coming Race (1879)
When a highly radioactive particle is found outside of a nuclear facility, you don't find nuclear physicists making ridiculous statements about "correlation is not causation" and bending all their efforts to find any other solution than what is plainly obvious.

This is not a correlation/causation fallacy at all. It is a simple application of occam's razor. The "wet market" hypothesis has only ever been a convenient distraction.
Along with what the sibling said, I'm not interested in tricks and puzzles, but I am interested in how people take in and handle new information. I'm not going to pretend like my job is bleeding edge or remotely novel tech. I do CRUD with SQL.

It's impossible for anyone to be an expert in every application that my team handles. The key for us is that we try to keep our applications relatively simple with how data moves from point to point. Orienting yourself with new environments and applications significantly increases productivity here. It's always good to have people who can recognize and apply logic to patterns, but knowing how to ask questions is important. It isn't about the "gotchas". It's about what happens after the person is stuck. We try to make sure our applicants can make some assumption or ask clarifying questions about ambiguous portions.

Not to get into the weeds here, but were you actually funneling credit cards through your site to a card gateway like Verisign, as opposed to just hosting a Stripe form or something?

This is not true. For example, the Romans used to use a cost-plus pricing scheme, and were apparently alarmed/surprised by the negotiations that they saw in Arab markets.
These people already exist. They do not need to be manufactured. I think many get turned away from the Linux community for non-technical reasons. For some, the community takes a bigger personal toll than the technical challenges. I personally gave up over that aspect and stopped contributing. I did not feel welcome or needed.
> online support for people in this sort of relationship

For sociological reasons that bear discussion, there is very little support for men in this situation. You may need to depend heavily on strong, close friends and family members. There is rarely a village to support a modern marriage.

Do not isolate yourself.

A relationship can be good or bad or some kind of stable compromise. When things go sour, one has to take a hard look at the risk to oneself in trying to personally support another person whom the psychiatric field may or may not be able to help. Then there is also the sunken cost of marriage, with home, children, and economic risks.

If I may offer a final personal observation... by the time you feel you are hurt by the situation, you have been hurting for a long time and worse than you realised.

Sincere best wishes to you!
Hello. I just recently built a website blocker Firefox extension so I wanted to check your productivity tool out. The UI is really good and I left it a 5 star.

If interesting in feedback;
1. It seems to only run the block/reroute to to-do list logic when a page is loaded. If the user is already on their site and then adds that site to the blocked list and has to-do list items, it won't be blocked immediately. I don't think this feature is vital but might align better with expectation.
2. Maybe show the to-do list and blocked sites button on the main extension popup, rather than having to go -> to-do list -> blocked sites
3. Maybe on/off button in case user has some sort of issue and needs to quickly access a site that is blocked.
EyeOS was developed around 15 years ago, when the internet enviroment was on the beginning of web2.0, so things were so different... Now, nearly all of those every day use programs have some sort of web application release or equivalent.

I feel two part in your question:

1-What is a good use with excess money?

2-How to manage the money?

For (2) I would hire someone good with tax optimisation and also try to understand it myself and I would invest in the stock market.

For 1, you can look into effective altruism and see if it resonate with you. It might be possible to make 1 and 2 work together ex: micro lending, investment in renewable company, etc

You can see the capital as a way to accelerate the change you want to see in the world.
On my PinePhone, I can immediately tell whether an app is built with React.

- the app usually takes several dozens of seconds to load

- the phone becomes warm

- any text I typed is not restored after a crash or a page reload if the developers have not explicitly saved my keystrokes in the local storage.

- each key press in an input takes a good fraction of a second (if not one full second) to appear on the screen

For the last one, I feel the lag on a decent laptop too (even if the lag is shorter). I know why: it is good practice to feed back any input into the state of the React component so everything is in sync. This triggers a re-render and if the devs were not careful, a good chunk of the app is re-rendered, which does not necessarily lead to a browser re-render / a blink, but definitely makes React execute a lot of render methods and re-diff virtual DOM trees. So each key press makes the browser run some JS that makes useless computation and accesses to the DOM. It's called "controlled component" [1]. Well, this is good practice for the devs, but it is user hostile. I wish more things were designed user-first instead of dev-first.

React + React-dom alone is around 130 KiB, 42 KiB Gziped [2]. It's without counting the usual dependencies (classname, Redux, browserlist, polyfills…). It's also more than three times the size of the entire frontend of the SMS app I'm building with Svelte. The heaviness is insane.

It is probably possible-ish to build an almost lean app with React. Signal seems to be kind of an exception and feels quite fast on my laptop (can't tell on the phone). It leaks memory and gets OOM killed quite often but React might not be to blame here. But React apps usually come with a awful lot of dependencies, to add insult to the injury.

It's render and diff'ing lags, fan takeoffs and RAM exhaustion all the way down.
