It is simply an internal implementation of rent seeking.

You can burn fossil fuels and cause damage through pollution and be applauded for being highly profitable.

Meanwhile people building sustainable energy or at least reducing the damage caused by pollution will be considered a drag and harshly criticized.

Ultimately the problem lies in the fact that we have built entire societies around the idea of exploiting externalities. You can't build a healthy society around such a thing and yet we keep doing and loving it.
Yes and I also suspect that android backup works worse for GSuite accounts (can't confirm). It looked to me like it would backup less so I switched to @gmail.com for all non-email google services some time ago. Now I can review PlayStore apps and I know backup works as good as it can.
Variables

ES6 wins, 'val' and 'var' are annoying close to each other.

Primitive Types

Scala hands down. Not even close.

Functions

Scala is more expressive (well if you ignore the types). I wish more languages would do the Haskell thing and let you write the type sig at the top. Typescript functions get so long.

Anonymous Functions

Very similar, so calling it a tie.

Default, named and rest parameters

I'll give this one to ES6 because the spread syntax feels more intuitive than * at the end of a type.

if, while, for, match control structures

Scala, because if is an expression and the for loop syntax is so concise. Also forget how nice nested looping was.

Classes

Scala. It's just more concise, I always liked not having to write boilerplate constructors.

Case classes

I mean I guess Scala but I still prefer polymorphism to pattern matching (please don't hurt me 2022 programmers)

Objects

Scala is shorter and more expressive here.

Traits

Scala because I never liked mutating objects, though I guess that's the prototype way.

Option, the type safe undefined

I mean Scala because I guess it actually has it, but worth pointing out it's like 30 LOC to define one for JS, depending on how many convenience methods you want.

Pointless post but this has made me kind of nostalgic for Scala. Maybe I own a computer fast enough to compile it now..
If you have no business in a country then its laws don't apply to you. Google & others specifically break EU law because they have offices and branches across EU yet wipe their asses with consumer/privacy protections.
From your statement it sounds like profit maximization is anything but rational
There is a very good reason for this. When you are in charge of public health policy, you need measures that are easy to implement by anyone, easy to check, don't involve any complexity or specific objects. That is also why in another popular study[0] push-ups were used as a marker instead of much more precise markers such as blood pressure etc.

The anti-American disinformation and social division campaigns really worked a number in the EU to the point that Germany has its head in the sand while Russia is on the brink of plunging Europe back into war.

Remember when the Australians snubbed France over the nuclear subs? This is why. The Anglosphere has realized that it can’t count on a unified, pro-democracy response from the EU. No teeth on Russia. No teeth on China. If Russia invaded Ukraine and pushed into other European countries it’s likely that the EU would simply collapse. It has no ability to create a coordinated response. Each country would resort to defending itself. I mean the UK is airlifting supplies, to Ukraine, to prepare for a war of aggression started by Russia and the Germans are saying effectively “fly it around Germany we don’t want to make Russia mad”. I’m not sure how much more info you need there. Hard to really see much of a point in NATO anymore. Putin has correctly realized that he only has to attack the alliance to dissolve it.

The other thing that I think Putin is realizing is that MAD is dead as long as you’re willing to put it to the test. Nobody is going to launch nuclear weapons to defend Poland or even Germany. If Russia dropped troops in Alaska tomorrow or California (this wouldn’t happen anyway but hear me out) is the US really going to nuke the entire world? I don’t think so. But would Putin nuke the US if it invaded Russia? I think this is on the table when you have seemingly a lot less to lose but even then I’m not sure.

So all of a sudden we’re back to a world where conventional warfare - open and outright hostility is back on the table in a way it hasn’t been in 80 years. Putin tomorrow could roll tanks through Belarus, Ukraine, and probably Latvia and Estonia and maybe even Finland and start a conventional, non-nuclear war with the West that he may very well win. The U.S. isn’t sending ground troops. He’s so confident in this he pulled troops from Siberia.

With that being said, the Russian army certainly ain’t the Soviet army. When Putin attacks be attacks with all of the best troops he has, which aren’t many. Official facility counts of weapons, ammunition, troop levels, are not to be believed. The downside of corruption means it makes it ok for lower level officials to sell an AK-47 or tank here or there. Or maybe a shipment of jet fuel just never actually arrives.

Anyway I need to go back to sleep.

Some other pointers:

"Fire in the Valley", "Soul of a New Machine", everything Maher has published on http://www.filfre.net/ , "Where Wizards Stay Up Late", the stories at https://www.folklore.org/ about the Macintosh.

But bear in mind that the Mac became big, which is why it's easy to find Mac stories. There are similar stories about other communities too, though harder to find. For example, here's a 2-part story about the Amiga - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ws3DJF7MbMU .

As a reminder, don't only read books about success, but also failure. "Startup: A Silicon Valley Adventure", about an early pen-based platform in the 1990s.

And there's fiction, like "Microserfs".

Ask HN: Pls critique my product landing page marketing
Founder of Vivid, maker of Vivid Trace for Atlassian Jira and Confluence. Landing page:

https://vivid-inc.net

I'd like to put this up (primarily the landing page) for constructive critique. Hopefully there is an opportunity for all of us to learn here.

While there are some people behind the scenes and many outsourcers, I have been doing all marketing by myself. Crucially, I recognize that I have a severe lack of skill in this department. I've been running this business for 8 years and have "enough" skills in value creation, customer development & support, etc. The product has traction, it solves real problems for currently paying customers. BUT after reading much Indie Hackers etc. and HN items on marketing like

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29538355

marketing feels like a gaping void to me. And that deficiency has been acting as a dis-abler to the business. So, last week, I decided to dive into the deep end of marketing.

The current landing page was completed several months ago in 2021 October. Perhaps it's a reasonable image of my current thinking and abilities. Transforming customer problems into messaging was interesting and even fun, but I still find writing to be excruciating. I believe in focusing on the desired outcomes for people, and in truthful representation of reality; so that should be on the page. The main purpose (CTA or Call To Action) is for the reader to start a 30-day free trial. The landing page content is structured to be later divided into targeted landing pages, one per profession (software dev, QA tester, lead, etc.), and also one per vertical (insurance, banking, manufacturing, and so on) where current customers are (also thinking case studies here). Each landing page will harmonize well with targeted SEO and ads.

Point of interest: This is how I have grown in terms of awareness of marketing, off the top of my head:

Early 2010s: Importance of SEO, on-page SEO (WWW), "The SEO Periodic Table", Google Webmaster / Search Console (or whatever it was called). Business Model Canvas. Customer Development (marketing materials speak in the customers' own language). Book "Nail It then Scale It" by Nathan Furr. Pirate metrics, AIDA. Customer Experience, and in particular Customer Journey and touchpoints.

Late 2010s: Features/Advantages/Benefits (FAB). Importance of positioning & declaring your niche amongst the competition, Book "Positioning: The Battle for Your Mind" by Al Ries. Jobs To Be Done. Headline writing. Tone, phrasing.

This week: Initiated Google Ads and Facebook Ads campaigns to build up high-intent top-of-funnel leads. Book: "The 1-Page Marketing Plan" by Allan Dib (pragmatic + really good so far), "Obviously Awesome" by April Dunford.

My theory about "old" music: the 60's were essentially the golden age of Western culture, with brand new technology (synths, the electric guitar), and the sheer amount of absolutely new never heard before sounds coming out was insane. The wave kept going for a few decades, and now we're in a place where music is over-commercialized, perfectly produced, and there doesn't seem to be many new places to go with it.

There's a lot of good new music nowadays, but you have to look for it, and it doesn't have the same impact as, for example, hearing White Rabbit for the first time. It's nearly all acquired taste.

So, I think the problem here is that we lack impactful music because of a decaying culture, over-commercialization of the industry, and a lack of technical innovation.

What can we do about it? That's the same question everyone is asking about nearly everything else these days.
Very interesting article for me. I actually grew up in Gisikon (where the battle of Gisikon took place) and my parents still live there.
Altought the battle of Gisikon was somewhat a key event in the formation of the modern swiss state (which was founded in 1848), the battle was not a topic in our school curriculum. One funny thing: There is one small remembering-stone right next to the town hall which nobody knows what it’s all about…

My information is not so cutting edge, I'd say my most up-to-date information comes from HN.. Some times it's days ahead of mainstream media.
I understand that you said you want to own music but I would suggest separating discovery from your library. You should let yourself listen to singles released via streaming as long it has corresponding artist and title name. Internet radio is still going strong. I know in the US many popular traditional radio stations have an online stream as well. You will have to be okay with ads though.

If you're focused on a getting a multi-track experience, I would strongly recommend looking up live show recordings of some of your favorite artists. You will have to use YouTube or SoundCloud or wherever because it's rare that an artists release a show on something like a bluray. I have seen it in Kpop but not much in the west. Netflix and Disney plus have gotten into releasing documentary concerts like Taylor Swift's Folklore: The Long Pond Studio Sessions.

The Billboard's top 100 is still a pretty decent way to expose yourself to new releases.

Not only there needs to be a reject option, but it must be the same size, weight and color so as not to influence the decision of the user. And be truthful, in most cases there should not be a banner at all: 99% of websites don't need cookies and when you do they're covered by other areas of GDPR (such as providing a requested service) which don't need explicit consent.

In all cases where you see a banner for accepting cookies, the company behind it is doing something nasty to the users. (i have yet to see a counter-example to that)
Defamation by... censoring?
It states that Thacker has been double vaccinated with Pfizer vaccine. Anti-vax conspiracy theorist? That is clearly nonsense.

Do you know how they became a popular hobby? The patents expired and enthusiasts started to design cheap printers. That is literally the origin of the hobby, I know because I was there. Commercial printers still cost $20,000 when hobby printers broke the $1k mark, which was obviously couldn’t have happened if they were still patented.

I’m not saying the economy can be run by volunteers. Engineers at Prusa are not volunteers, they get paid. And they make their designs all open source. They do not need intellectual property restrictions to make their product viable.
Then there will be response articles which expose those errors as such, a consensus will be reached and we will move on to other issues. That is the nature of scientific discourse. Expecting everyone to shut up just because you shout "ANTIVAX" is not.
You can export whole projects as one-file markdown (or HTML, RTF), worst case being having to go through every project, exporting and splitting the file up (by a script), or turn the agenda folder somewhere in ~/Library (contains bunch of json) into something usable via script, but I agree, it lacks a reasonable solution for getting it all out at once.
What "viral marketing meme" are you talking about, a funny clause in their legal text? Seems like that's a one-time thing mostly, which most people will see through as a marketing gimmick to try to seem less sterile than what the organization is in real-life. I don't see how this can lead to either more credibility with game developers nor boosting the team spirit, both of those are driven by building a really good product that is useful for people (in this case game developers), which judging by the actual product page, it's not really there yet. Until then, credibility will remain where it's at, and so will the team spirit. Don't let one paragraph from the legalese confuse you.

Air source heat pumps aren't efficient in extremely cold outside air, and so you're back to resistive heating - but for ground source you should see very little change, because the temperature of the rock under you doesn't change suddenly on a cold day. If we have a century of cold weather the rock will cool down, but one particularly icy week won't do it. The ground effectively is your heat battery, pump heat into it in summer (removing it from your home), pump heat back out in winter (to heat your home up).

Not denying that it could be long COVID but those are also the exact symptoms of chronic anxiety, which your COVID infection could have created or aggravated. You should check a doctor because chronic anxiety can be a real long term issue and it's possible to heal completely if treated seriously and rapidly.

A lot of people are developing anxiety symptoms due to the epidemic crisis. I think it's worth checking.

Not at all. The only question is whether number of steps is a valid measure of how much exercise you're getting. Higher step count means people are walking more which means more general activity which is good. However, there are other relevant factors to consider such as walking speed, cardiac frequency, the intensity of the exercise. There are also other ways to exercise which don't involve steps at all. Weight lifting for example.
Any idea if it's possible that you got a secondary infection?

Iirc two of the most effective prevention of death in clinical settings around here before vaccines and this new type of meds has been the introduction of antibiotics soon after admittance (for older patients) since it prevented bacterial pneumonias to occur opportunistically (many older early Covid victims died of this even if Covid was the initial infection). The second one was to put anti-clotting agents early on after admittance to prevent secondary issues due to clots.

There is the F(x)tec Pro1X [0] which looks similar to the Nokia N900. It's a little bit too expensive for the specs (about 740€ for the 8GB/256GB version with Snapdragon 662), but could be a nice phone.

Or maybe OnwardMobility will succeed and release the new Blackberry this year and it won't be a piece of crap. /s
