It just amazes me that developers try to cram editorializing into the title of the app, when you're already given a search word field and a description field in which to tell the world about your app. IRL nobody searches for "Cheerios - Toasted Whole Grain Oat Cereal for the Whole Family".
Its package.json and / or node_modules might also give some clues
> So Google auto-translates your app title? I guess you opted into this somewhere, at least they don't do this for my app.

The way I understood it, what they are actually doing is auto-translating the localised (by the developer) title back to English for the purpose of running automated checks on it, and rejecting based on this automatic translation turning a word that implies nothing about price in the original language into the English word "free".
Neat idea. Will the terminal sharing and IDE sync also be open source?
Netflix only shows audio/subtitle tracks that are in languages they think are relevant to you.

But nowadays you can configure additional visible languages yourself on the language settings page (checkboxes under "Programmes & Films Languages") without changing the UI language: https://www.netflix.com/LanguagePreferences

Thanks for posting it here. I was going to look for this exact package to post here but I forgot its name!
Not quite, the only thing I agree with you on is that there were externalities outside of Hawaii that became a catalyst for the coup, which is rarely mentioned

US and China were in a trade war in the 1890s, same story different century, this placed tariffs on agriculture imported to both unions, the only clever part is that the elite in Hawai’i realized that the tariffs magically disappear if a part of one of those unions. This was accurate. But it was such a clusterf*ck that it is indefensible. The US president had no idea it happened and was against it but ran out of time to do anything before his term was up, the next guy was like “lol awesome” and the rest is mostly history (aside from the part that Congress didn't want it because it meant Asian political representation in a US state, purely race based discrimination)
From the perspective of the homeowner there is no functional difference between net-metering with a grid tie-in and oversized panels with battery capacity. In either case the light switch will work at night but net-metering comes at zero cost and the other is cost prohibitive.

From the neighbor’s perspective who is paying for the grid the rooftop solar is just another power company. A commercial solar provider is offering to sell solar power at average costs of $0.06 per KWH while the solar rooftop owner is offering to sell it at multiples of wholesale. In addition the rooftop solar owner wants long term guaranteed price contracts to deliver power to the grid whenever it is convenient. Nobody would agree to that arrangement.

Rooftop solar owners are currently heavily subsidized and if they weren’t they’d just disconnect from the grid and it wouldn’t be a debate.
Ooo nice one. Cool features I noticed:

- VSCode theme support

- Textmate grammar tokenizing

- Multiple targets (SVG/PDF)

- Annotations
I like some Apple TV shows a lot, but there's not a lot. RN I think I'm "finished" with what I really wanted to watch: Ted Lasso, Central Park, Dickinson. I started Acapulco and it's nice, but things in other platforms seems more appealing.

That being said, I think as they expand, it's going to get pretty good.

Is a volume with BitLocker “Waiting for Activation” encrypted or not?
The key takeaway: if you try to turn on BitLocker but you don't have a Microsoft account, Windows will encrypt the drive but then store the encryption key in cleartext. If you try to fix this through Settings, it will then lie to you by saying the only way to fix this is signing in to a Microsoft account. You can actually fix this in Control Panel, though.
When I saw "Pure CSS/HTML" I figured it was doing the highlighting in CSS. IIUC this is doing the highlighting in C# and generating an HTML page. Which wile useful is not novel, it is how probably most syntax highlights work like Pygments or Rouge.

You could also argue the work you’re talking about started after the civil war, accelerated during the civil rights era, and culminated in 2008.

If you told a recently freed slave that in 150 years a black man would be elected president and that includes nearly half of the white population voting for him.
They would’ve looked at that day as a wonderful dream.

Yet you are telling them, that day will come but you will not be satisfied.

And rightly so they wouldn’t be satisfied.

So think even now you’re working towards a dream. Progress was done in 08, but took a step back in 2016. Isn’t it depressing that this dream you’re striving with all your might won’t satisfy even if achieved?

Or has the dream been realized. And simply put there is now no excuse. That underneath every time we’re a victim, we are also guilty ourselves.
I'd pay for a service that responds to every spam email with a GPT-generated conversation, with the goal of wasting more of their resources than yours.

Maybe you could train it on a central database that keeps track of which conversations get the most consecutive replies from scammers.

You might not even need GPT. Maybe just the act of responding with a reasonable amount of text would create a large filtering burden for scammers.

I have to believe someone has tried this.
Good luck.

If you still have a valid payment option in the original country, you can stay subscribed. But if you move to europe, and you want a south-american netflix account, have fun trying to get it paid.

Also, subtitles and audio tracks dont always stay in the list they were in the origin country (shows that have brazilian audio and subs when you are in brasil dont always have those while you are in europe. I am in this boat)

I don’t know what anyone should do. I think there are no black and white answers anywhere.

But… I can tell you that there’s some weird recommendation right now that if you are the least bit unhappy, or have the slightest bit of FOMO, or have been slighted in the tiniest of ways… “that you must quit”.

Like… that people are being convinced there is no value in having a current job if it isn’t your dream job.

I just had a developer ghost us two weeks ago. Just not come in one day and only when repeatedly texted answered he is looking for other work. Besides the extremely unprofessional aspect, when pressed he had no answer for what we could do better except double his pay or why he wouldn’t look in his off time.

We paid him a good salary for his resume and work, but he has somehow convinced himself that he can make double somewhere else and still work 32 hours a week with an extremely relaxed working environment.

I just don’t get who is making these insane recommendations to people, or why anyone would listen.

I wish our former guy luck, but whatever job you plan on taking - please don’t fucking ghost your employer out of no where.
> Speaking of global, I have noticed that Netflix is one of the few who offers a variety of non-English/American targeted shows.

That's something I love about Netflix. Watching German, Russian, Spanish, Danish TV shows is really cool for change
It depends (a little bit) on your age, and (a lot) on your desire to learn or do more. You might be hitting a point where you are getting bored, sick of not learning anything new in your current position, and this may be the biggest motivator for you.

Other factors or metrics or motivators or whatever we might call them may include money (you mentioned), comfort, job security, work environment, travel time ...I can't think of any more right now. One big indicator might be when you wake up in the morning and you dread going into work. Chances are you will be happier somewhere else.

You're time and skills are valuable, that's why you get paid to do the job you do. It's up to you to find the line.

(edit)
Also, you can try moving up in the company you are in? If you like the culture and environment and whatnot, and feel you are being under utilized, they may have something more demanding for you to do there.
Well, yeah. I too am in the bubble of realistic experience of having apps repeatedly pulled out from underneath me.

Excuse me for being in that bubble.
Recent events have emboldened racists for sure, but the original comment was that we've gone off the rails since the King speech, which is a comparison to the Civil Rights Era US. Is it your experience that the post-2016 era is worse than that? I'm white and I wasn't alive at the time, so it isn't my place to judge there, but I'd find that pretty surprising I guess.
I agree, even as a backend dev I had a lot more fun with this than I expected. 08:19:6, just slightly behind you.
I worked at 2 dysfunctional companies and the most valuable thing I learned from it is never to work at dysfunctional company ever again.

I might have a different definition of a dysfunctional place though - for me it's a place that works against me and my productivity, a place where I have to go through a number of hoops in order to do the job I was hired to do. And let me tell you, by the time I made it through all these hoops I was so drained of energy I lost all the passion and will to continue

Most recently for me, there were a couple of things:

1) I had no where to go career wise. Vertical movement meant becoming a manager

2) My last couple of performance reviews felt like they were nitpicking to rank me lower. It felt like a cheap trick.

3) We went from being an R&D POC group to a production group. I enjoyed both, but the former is more fun
Does the kids app show ads? Aside from the creepy content (which required in-person parental filtering) the advertising was the thing that drove us away from YouTube.

It's fine on a laptop or desktop where you can run an ad blocker. It's not fine when you're trying to let kiddo watch YouTube on an actual TV screen.
I honestly think instead of the username if an email was found and published the author would be receiving so many offers for work from Silicon Valley companies. There aren't that many talented engineers even in SV who could pull something like this off. Sad to see amoral behavior from otherwise smart creative people who're stuck in shitty jobs with shittier bosses.
Did you look at the hints? I learned a bit from them.
The Lisp version can also be more readable with a macro (like https://github.com/quil-lang/cmu-infix): #I(a*(1.0-t) + b*t). Or something else that would let you write GP's preferred syntax. One of the things that makes Lisp Lisp is that if the parens are over-cumbersome, you have the tools to take them away. See also CL:LOOP.

What is your vision for web3.net? I opened it and saw a brief text. It would be great to have that domain be a landing page for communities that are operating in the space. I was hoping web3 foundation would have something like that but it seems they skewed a lot towards polkadot based things https://web3.foundation/projects/

I am interested, what would be the best way to reach you?
I think part of it comes down to mindset. If you think of ArrayList as an abstract container, then yes, you're totally correct that having the underlying data structure being exposed is a bit jarring and unexpected.

But I don't think that's the right level of abstraction to come from. ArrayList is just a wrapper around a slice that handles allocation and deallocation for you: the underlying data structure is part of the contract of the type, allowing it to be almost a drop in replacement.
Ask HN: Remote work in a different timezone, or local?
I have an offer from a company in a timezone that's 8 hours behind - so to work for them I'd have to do 11:00-19:00 or later to have enough overlap.

On the other hand, I have a couple offers from companies that are local to me.

All of them have similar salaries & equity (and arguably similar chances of growth), but the product of the remote one is something I like better (it helps everyday people be healthier).

So, for people that have to work late because of remote work, what has your experience been like? Finishing at 7pm means that I won't be able to do much in the afternoons with my family for example.
> People who want to study earthquakes need to go where there are fault lines. People who want to solve hard problems need to go where those problems live.

There is no need for those places to be dysfunctional though. You can go study earthquakes in California or Afghanistan. You aren't any better for it dodging the Taliban though.

It's almost as if over a decade or more if time that people can see the result of behavior they didn't see as problematic initially.

Or that google might have changed how they operate in small ways as they are steered differently.

Expecting any one person to still have the same opinion of any one other person a decade later might be asking a lot. It's nothing strange that a community of people would have differing thoughts on a whole company of people and product and policies.

I think that a lot of spam is sent to lists of emails compiled in the 90s. Pretty much any email address that ever posted to Usenet is hopelessly compromised. On the flip side, I don't think that the spammers scan websites for email addresses any more. I have an email I publish on my contact page on my writing website (with a mailto: link and everything) that gets close to zero spam, only marginally more than a domainname@domainname.com address that I never publish.

Looking at the spam that gets trapped in the filters, I do think that one source of addresses is now compromised accounts or computers since I'll occasionally see spam purporting to be from people I know.

Exactly. All the previous questions had real, elegant answers. This one felt like whacking the mole was _possible_, but not the right way.
Its truly one of the wildest stories very few people know about. He (very seriously) planned for it to star: Mick Jagger, Salvador Dali, Orson Welles, and... Jodorowsky's 12 year old son playing Paul. With music by Pink Floyd (post-Dark Side). This was not pie-in-the-sky dreaming; he met with all of these people, and they all agreed. Planning for a 14 hour movie, they ultimately gave up due to the budget being "short by $5M" (adjusted for inflation: ~$15M).

Though by the end of the documentary, you'll definitely arrive at the conclusion that it wouldn't just be another $5M, and the project had so many problems beyond money; it is interesting to think about how Dune (2021)'s budget came in at ~$165M. We missed out on something truly unique for sure; probably an acid-fueled fever dream, but I totally understand why some people have an obsession with the work Jodorowsky put into the adaptation, and would pay to own a piece of that history.
My main concern which made me switch back to NextJS was debugging with useful error messages, given the Svelte system does different things; when I played with it for a graph visualization thing, it hadn’t had all the edge cases found so I felt like getting into bigger project I had trouble finding where my bugs were when I was using Svelte;

that was at least a year ago so if those issues are resolved then it’s a compelling framework to play with for sure, I like how Svelte feels just like HTML/CSS/JS and Svelte performance could be superior to React if certain claims are true about disappearing framework vs virtual dom. Not sure how SSR impacts those performance pros and cons between Next and Svelte so it’d be interesting to find published and updated latency benchmark numbers for both.

React hooks can be different to reason about though because of immutable state patterns vs two-way data binding; I actually really like the hooks and immutability ideas, but two way binding is much more elegant and simple sometimes. Edit: also those don’t have to be exclusive
Everyone is different. Staying at a job isn't just about the job for everyone. What are your goals? What else is going on in your life? Optimizing for learning is great if you are looking for growth. Is it the best idea when you've just had a baby?

If you are looking for growth and learning opportunities, and you aren't getting them, them find a new job and then leave. The job market for engineers is red hot, so that shouldn't be a concern. And, assuming you have a little bit of discretional money / savings, you should be fine on that front.

Just be aware, the grass isn't always greener and it's very hard to learn about an company from the outside, because culture can be very different team to team. So, if you move once, be prepared to have to move again, if need be.

For me, I'm still looking for growth and to take on more responsibilities (to grow as a leader). I've learned that if your boss isn't your champion, growth isn't going to come inline. So, it's probably time to leave. But, that's just me.
I lived in Naples for five years - it's a great shame that people land there still and scurry for the islands; the city really rewards exploration.

Substep 6 is not obvious to me. It is not clear that the point where the inner sphere and the space-filling spheres intersect must be along the line from the center of the cube to the center of each sub-cube.

To put it another way, it's not obvious to me that the point of contact between the inner pink circle and the outer black circle is along the green line.
Precisely. Look at the anti-MLK editorial comic pictured in https://www.cbr.com/martin-luther-king-jr-cartoons-depiction.... Identical messaging you see used against BLM today; titled "I plan to lead another non-violent march tomorrow" with MLK pictured front of a burning hellscape.
After having sampled Disney+, HBOMax, Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime a fair bit in the past year, my take is that Netflix has the UX nailed. I can, for instance, "thumbs down" a recommendation. Some offerings I never want to see. Their catalog tends to the darker themes, and I'm not fond of that.

Hulu and Amazon Prime are mostly irrelevant to me. I'll probably axe the Hulu sub.

HBO has a few things I like. Disney+ targets the kids/family/lighter theme demographic tightly.

I think that the general provider landscape is a bit overdone; some consolidation would be welcomed by consumers, and any competitor that falls behind in offerings will crash exponentially.
Interesting how none of those lawsuits are antitrust related to their anti-competitive behavior in the browser or search engine markets, you 'd have thought that would be fertile ground for litigation.

Because happiness is not something you can 'have', it's something that happens. If you pursue happiness as a goal in itself, you may find that whatever you thought would give you happiness is not enough. On the other hand, if you have a mission and pursue that, you might not accomplish your mission, but happiness, or at least contentment that you are making progress, may happen in the process.

I've worked at many dysfunctional companies, and the most valuable things I learned is that all companies are dysfunctional and you need to find the one where you can thrive despite the dysfunction.

Now, that being said, find a company where your role is valued because it is directly tied to revenue generating activities for the company. Don't be in a support role. (This isn't novel advice.)
A DBA I know very well was charged with modeling the accounts for an intentional illegal financial trick (in the 80s for Service Merchandise iirc) that would shift the proceeds from the trick into regular accounts after the statute of limitations ran out. The way it was explained to them was that if they were busted on it they would immediately apologize for the "oversight" and pay up. They did it because they enjoyed being employed.
This is also what makes NFTs great for money laundering. You can use the money from the dirty wallet to make the wash sales, increasing the value of your NFT while cleaning the money at the same time.
sending a mailshot through a botnet has zero marginal cost. Maintaining the botnet has overhead, but that's not a cost of sending the email, it's an overhead.
That's their nominal task, and nominally why they make big bucks.

But have you ever witnessed the MBAs solving it? I haven't. So I'd recommend to avoid the organizations with the second kinds of problems, so that you can focus on the first, and not even think about the MBAs.

Or, alternatively, if you manage to find a way to do it, get the task for yourself and make the big bucks.
