And I'm positing that he intentionally feeds the intolerant reaction because it keeps his profile raised and the revenue flowing. That, at a high level, makes him a shock jock.

The content - offensive/inaccurate or not - doesn't matter if the host knows their show causes outrage and chooses to lean into it.

Edit: He's different from other shock jocks, though, in that he's been smart enough to do this in a way that straddles the line - he doesn't look like a Limbaugh or a Stern and can say that he's "just doing research" and "only asking questions", while still intentionally profiting from outrage.
This is a huge feature for me. I had set up my EE consultancy and even though I'm no longer doing any side work the Fatmail hosting feature allows my to keep a professional-looking static site for no extra cost with a place to post periodic blog updates and even the beginnings of a niche knowledge base. I love it!
Spotify is a left wing activist company. Just like Airbnb and GoFundMe.

Conservatives are dropping their principles- meaning why should we give the left free speech or services from private companies when they deny that to the right. We want revenge. We want AG from GOP states to investigate these companies for fraud, theft, or discrimination.

They are no longer a neutral company. Period, and this is war.

Conservatives can no longer expect services from lefty companies.

How about truckers, who are conservative, not deliver food to lefty cities. How will they like that. So now lefty's need to start their own lefty trucker companies so they can get food. It is a private business, go start your own trucking company to get food- how do you like that?

.... I don't buy the conclusion.

Science progresses. What's possible in the future can't be predicted today. Let's start with what we can do in 2022 which we couldn't imagine in 1922.

* Of course, we can sequence DNA now (and we know it exists).

* We can also trace back sequences of DNA by when they were created (from splits in evolutionary trees) and extrapolate portions of old DNA of organisms long gone.

* We can probably use machine learning to predict portions of DNA.

Now, let's imagine 2122.

* Will we be able to make inferences from partially-degraded DNA? Perhaps.

* Will we be able to make inferences from the structure about the organism about the corresponding DNA? Perhaps.

* Will our ability to combine inferences grow? Perhaps.

Overall, one thing I've learned is to not predict what's /im/possible. Eventually, engineering finds a way to do some truly counter-intuitive things (and conversely, can't solve problems we'd think would be solved by now; where's my rocket car?)...
"You should have an unsubscribe link. You should also have your business address and identify yourself."

What would that even look like ?

You're a paying customer of a service - they charge you every month - and you use that service ~daily ... and then you unsubscribe to emails ...

So then what ?

We just keep taking your money and when the service fails or there is an outage or critical notification we ... just don't send it ?
Could you explain the email part? Thanks!
That's what I meant! Having a written conversation about X means the notes are all already there for you. I've worked with so many people, both colleagues and clients, who use phone calls / in-person meetings as a way to essentially pass the buck while hiding any evidence that that happened. An auditable paper trail is preferable to me in every way.

The article is correct, in that attaching our identity to an outcome is a problem.

It doesn't just have to be perfect results. It can also be emotional relationships with other people, getting a job or a promotion, winning a contest/game, an imagined endgame, etc.

I don't think there's a damn thing wrong with setting a high bar; possibly unreasonably high, as long as I have a healthy reaction to that bar not being met.

I remember reading about "fuzzy logic," way back, when that was still a thing. One description had "levels," where you had things like "On, almost on, not on, cat in a box, not off, almost off, off," etc. Basically, a continuum, with "detents."

That's sort of how I work. I set a bar for "perfect," but will settle for "almost perfect," or maybe even "very good." I will not settle for "good," or lower.

My identity is not tied into my work, but I am constantly striving for approaching perfection in my work.

If I don't at least get "very good," I don't beat myself up, but the job's not done.
OK, so I agree with a lot of the stuff you are saying, but you are all neglecting the reality that many have been excluded from learning math, science and technology like coding because of the shitty schools they are forced to attend. Of course big companies want to have a surplus of coders just like every other skilled profession, because it increases their bottom line. You can't blame people for wanting to try and get ahead and coding is a really good way to make a living. Despite the arguments about teaching people how to think abstractly and nonsense like that, take a look at the P-TECH school that started in Brooklyn NY. Very successful workforce programs that I designed in the past were used as a model for P-TECH, which has been adopted internationally. STEM and STEAM schools is not propaganda in every instance. Many people are working to provide kids with a chance at making it through a recognized profession. What is wrong with that? STEM and STEAM in public schools do not require or tell everyone that they "NEED to learn how to code" etc. There is is a lot more to it when it comes to STEM, many programs, some of which are total garbage, and others which are making a difference in the lives of people. Get outside of your comfort zone and take a look.
Sounds like a habit one living near the equator would take for granted and pass off as wisdom. In Anchorage, that would mean sleeping in past 9 in the winter. Good luck keeping a job on that schedule.
I like DRF, especially when I have to come back after some time or get in a new project and looking for where things happen. But ya, boilerplate city. It really feels wrong typing out the serializers, the views, repeating the same steps over and over. It's too much.

I'm excited to try this out, been looking at FastAPI.
There is no such thing as an exception in cryptography. Either it works or it doesn't. The same technology that protects the criminal will protect me. If the criminal is not protected, then I'm not protected. That is the simple reality of cryptography.

The smart child molester will use these technologies regardless of your or the government's opinion about them. I guarantee you they'd rather go to jail for contempt of court or whatever than child abuse. What's at issue here is the availability of encryption to the general population.
Ah! My lack of beard is showing! Oh noes :))) Thanks for the explanation!
Sorry for coming over as harsh, that was not my intention. It's just that I interpreted your should as a relatively strong word.

I agree that male chicks are being massively slaughtered after they hatch in order to get hens. For every male chick that dies, you get more than 300 eggs a year for a couple years. Hens are usually slaughtered too after some time because they get less productive.

My point was mostly that bringing ethics into any topic is something you can't do without acknowledging that people have different views on what's ethical.

At which point is it okay to terminate a chicken? That's a very debatable topic, same as abortion.

What is not up for debate is the carbon impact of various diets. That's quite easy to measure, and much more objective.
Basically what Jordan was saying was an extremely obvious misinterpretation of what Lorenz was actually saying.

I fell for this a few years ago when I was in college.

I intended to sign up for a month, and see if I liked graphic design. After a few weeks my school ended up offering any student a "free" (paid for by my tuition really) Adobe CC subscription if you fill out a Google Form and tell them what you want to do with it. So I tried to cancel and learned I would be hit with a massive early cancellation fee (I think it ammounted to something around $240).

I called Adobe support and in my experience their customer service politely cancelled my subscription and waived all fees. Thankfully they did not give me a hard time about it whatsoever.

But when I signed up I had absolutely no idea that it was a yearly plan paid monthly, since Adobe was the first and last time I have personally seen such a model for SaaS.
> If the government openly pressures Spotify, that is government censorship, which is literally what just happened.

This is absolutely false on both counts.

First: at no point did the government pressure spotify to specifically take down content.

Second: answering a question asked to you about what you think about a current event would not constitute censorship anyways.
Awesome, thank you. Lovely counterpart to jq :)
>The only thing keeping the GDP at the level it is is high level of immigration which favours the wealthy in the name of a “point based immigration system”.

Is that supposed to be bad? The main factors that contribute to your points are language skills, education, work experience, age, and job offer. It's true that those requirements favor the wealthy, but would canada be better served by immigrants that don't speak english, are inexperienced, old, and don't have a job lined up?
Are there actually such sanctions against Belarus?
It’s really not speculation. Much has been written about the chip shortage and the automotive market. You’re welcome to read up on it. There may be some disagreement about whether prices will return to normal in late 2022 vs sometime in 2023, but economists pretty much all agree that the current situation is abnormal and they will decrease.
Huh! It's a lot more colourful than I'd expected, given its origins as a military base. I guess that having something bright and colourful probably helps a lot in the grim weather.

> This blacklist has been created for HARDLINERS. It can, and probably will cause collateral damage to innocent users when used to block email.

And it makes for a perfectly usable blocklist. If you use postfix, the postscreen_dnsbl_threshold and postscreen_dnsbl_sites parameters let you create a simple scoring system:

postscreen_dnsbl_threshold = 10
postscreen_dnsbl_sites =
zen.spamhaus.org*5,
bl.spameatingmonkey.net*5,
dnsbl.sorbs.net*4,
bl.spamcop.net*4,
dnsbl-3.uceprotect.net*3

I made up the numbers, because you will need to monitor your system for a while to see if they make sense, but the principle holds. Also make sure that the dnsbl you are using are working for you.

But it isn't really a problem with uceprotect, it's about how DNSBLs are used.

If you want professional fact-checking, he's high profile enough you can google it. E.g. this is recent: https://www.bbc.com/news/60199614 and includes some amusing quackery. However, the real problem here isn't just the outright claims he makes, it's that he platforms dangerous cook's like Malone and presents their debunked, non-scientific nonsense as reasonable.
Does Wireguard not do a privilege downgrade? That seems important. I know it needs some additional privileges, and therefore (right now?) will not run in a container (which is annoying), but after it has set up an interface, why doesn't it back off its privileges? I really want to try Wireguard but kept getting hung up on stuff like this.

Yes, just because I use your service doesn't mean I want to see every outage notification status update as an email. Preferably email subscription status would be granular so I can select what I want to get not what some idealized average user would want to get.
Superb article. One thing though, it's difficult to reconciliate job markets / interview tests with not being a perfectionnist to an extent. Hopefully not a crippling but a mature for of skillfulness.

> On a quick scan, it seems to be some more things than just `let`. One example would be `(Main n) = (Sum (Gen n))` should be closer to `(define Main (n) (Sum (Gen n)))` or similar.

Good point.

> Could even get rid of the parenthesis for arguments (`(n)` => `n`) and treating forms inside `define` the same as `let`.

No, because non-curried functions are a feature. If we did that, every function would be curried. Which is nice, but non-curried functions are faster (lots of lambdas and wasteful copies are avoided using the equational rewrite notation), so they should be definitely accessible.

The problem with XOR is that you need a line with dimension N, where N is the number of distinct inputs to the XOR, to separate true from false in the truth space.

What I demonstrated was up to 6 dimensional XOR functions being learned in Hopfield networks using Hebbian learning with an additional learning term. I ran a "wave of learning" over the network modifying that terms. In a sense it is a layer free network because no explicit later exists but in another sense the modulation provided a transient layers since the learning term caused different parts of the network to learn at different times out of sync with one another.
Communication skills, writing skills, and reading comprehension are far more likely to result in greater income and independence. These skills are rare and take a long time to acquire while many stem skills can be crammed in short periods of time due to the organized structure that many sciences are based upon. Think about how long it takes to become a decent writer or communicator versus how much time it takes to become a web developer? A six week cram course and bam you have a CRUD-app-creating clone that corporations love to hire as a replaceable cog for their applications development team.

A good communicator with excellent reading comprehension can work in many fields including creating their own companies, generating new revenue for companies via sales skills, and/or learning new trades more effectively than someone who lacks those skills. Focusing strictly on STEM skills is a quick way to a dead end career for some people who become overly specialized in a technological space that changes constantly. Hence, the trend in tech to undervalue experienced workers, because their experience is not appreciated or valued by STEM managers and executives.
Bought uber, airbnb and reddit in 2018 on equidate/forgeglobal.

Structured as contracts for future stock from current employees that get transferred to you after the ipo (and usually 6 month lockup) are complete.

I got 100% of the uber stock (about 1x return) about 99.8% of the airbnb (about 2.5x return) and depending on if/when reddit ipos (was looking good for 10x a few months back but unlikely now) it will be interesting to see how much of the stock i get if it has gone up massively since initial purchase.

I sold once with Equityzen and once with a different company, I forget the name. Both times were great, but it took years from start to finish. They’ll help you through the process. The fees were levels below the taxes, not bad at all. If you are interested and your company is listed on secondary sites, why not list some shares and see if anything comes through.

Certainly, but the line that has been drawn can be characterized as insane since the 1960s at least.
I'm concerned about 1st amendment and the soft power politicians have on freedom of speech (yes I know this is in Canada). When the head politician of a country essentially calls your group terrorist, wouldn't that put some pressure on social media or other organizations to restrict access, money or censor speech?

Not all violations of free speech are literally police sending someone to jail for saying something. If the politicians pressure private organizations to censor speech, resulting in the speech being censored, then its absolutely a violation of free speech

I haven't been listening to JR since around (maybe before) he left YT, so know it comes as a surprise that his earlier episodes were also taken to Spotify (and off of YT). Makes sense, I just wasn't aware.

I can see some of the nuts on the list (like Eddie Bravo and, of course, Alex Jones), but seeing Gad Saad came as a surprise. Also, anyone knows what could have been wrong with David Seaman? (I haven't heard his episodes nor anything about him outside of his soccer/goalie career. But curiously he seemed to have been on the show pretty frequently.)
It is interesting that Delta should want this. I want to be put on the 'no-fly' list. Delta should create a portal for this. I want on, and I can nominate many others. Indeed, I think that Delta's business should be tanked.

Of course, I attempted to get added to the no-fly list, as it seems quite special. Unfortunately, it appears that this is not possible (I may try phoning it in later).

We don't moderate HN that way. I know that contradicts the default cynical view, but people should replace that view with the following alternative cynical view, which is more accurate:

(1) HN's only value to YC is the community; (2) the community only comes here to the extent that it finds HN interesting; (3) therefore, to optimize HN's value, we have to optimize it for being interesting. Moderating for parochial interest (e.g. suppressing things that some $ingroup doesn't like—VCs or whoever else) would make HN less interesting, so we don't.

We also don't do it because (a) it would be wrong and (b) it would feel bad, but those concerns don't belong in a cynical argument. YC's business interests, however, do belong in such an argument, and it's very much in YC's business interest to keep this community as happy as possible. That's a sort of miracle if you think about it—a freak of economic nature—so we should all enjoy it for as long as possible.
