There's an old quip that the greatest correlation for a country to have supercentenarians is them not issuing proper documentation at birth 120 years ago.

So yeah, currently there's a hard limit - around 100, more or less, but with life seldom being worth living after 90. I really wish we'd start investing in breaking this. I'll happen at some point, the only question is when, and I'd think it's obvious why we'd want it earlier rather than later. But some facet of our psychology makes it very hard to think about this in hopeful ways.
Not what I was looking for, but a nice list. Just want to call out, what I've also seen in the article that a sibling comment pointed to: if you're gonna mention Liquibase, why would you not mention Flyway: https://flywaydb.org/

Good luck with your search.
> In the end my colleagues asks for help to run the automation but they refuse to learn how to use it themselves. Bah.

Sounds to me like "please do my work for me" kinda ask.
Right, if you are looking at consumer PC devices, you would be misled to think that Microsoft leads the way, but if you look at things like embedded devices, servers, super computers and smart phones (if Android is considered linux?), then Linux leads the way. Even commercially Linux is pretty strong because it enables very large businesses. AWS makes up the majority of Amazon's profit.

The picture of the Great Ziggurat of Ur is pleasing.
The request does not send resource/cookie data if CORS does not explicitly relax the SOP. CORS does not protect!
In slack at least you can insert line breaks so the pleasantry first, line break, then question.
Correct. A simple PHP proxy script can be handy for caching and defeating CORS.

So Mercantilism would be preferable? No more importing anything, just using local resources locally? Maybe for USA just do away with inter-state commerce too. Can't have that ruin things, locally produced and build food, shelter and clothing. By own hands.
The main point is the productivity/production has been shifted elsewhere. Once upon a time if you wanted to be wealthy, you had to produce physical stuff. Today you just find somewhere else in the world where people are forced to produce for pennies and you make them produce cheap crap for you, while the west does a lot less production than its potential and mostly just reaps the benefits.

But the problem is not that production was mostly removed as the enabler to buy stuff. The real huge problem in the last 45 years is that the constraints on financing were removed.

Once upon a time in order to buy cheap labor from another country, you had to pay with something physical, probably something you actually produced. Today you can just punch a key on your keyboard and give them extra numbers that are backed by nothing really, there is no need to produce anymore.

When the only constraint on production is to find more fools to produce for you, eventually you run out of fools.
Walmart is not people, Walmart is a billion dollar company and it is not bringing food, it is selling it for profit. Stealing from a company is a matter of balance sheet, while stealing from people means a real someone (as opposed to a abstract corporate entity) is actually going to miss something.

Moreover, Walmart would throw the food away anyway, if nobody bought it.
Really frustrating to read articles like this having been through 2 years of making remote working super productive.

I think some people just have an aversion to making it work, or a power trip, or need for bums on seats.

For example, our team amazingly left our business in a much stronger position "post"-pandemic than pre-pandemic. But as soon as there was the chance, our boss pulled us all back in.

Given the sacrifices made, 80% of the core team that achieved these results were gone within 3 months, and the last 20% will be gone by the next 2 months, including me.

I really believe in remote, however I/we weren't even asking for that. Just the flexibility and trust to choose what worked best at any given time. Sometimes that meant hooking up and meeting in person; or, for focused work, staying at home using all the commute energy on a great piece of work, then having dinner with your spouse.

Articles like this are a joke. Yes, I'm very frustrated about it as these kind of views directly led to the break-up of our great team, and has left me looking for another job.
I'm really excited to see the work arounds people may devise in order to trick the sensor.
Maybe useful as an incentive to not assassinate you?
Thinking about Passwords
I would add that this "flexibility" also lends itself very well to motte-and-bailey defenses: When pressed to justify such a law - say e.g. libel - you can draw up some gross, obvious offenses that fall under the law, ideally with the audience as the victim ("imagine someone walked around the neighborhood and was telling everyone you murdered someone"), giving you broad support.

What you don't tell is what other, much more murkier circumstances would also be covered by the law - e.g. journalists publishing well-researched allegations of corruption.
This isn't fully accurate -- you can never prevent cross-site POST requests from being initiated, with or without CORS. For example, CORS is never involved in requests from <form> submissions (which can be triggered via JavaScript).

Really CORS cannot be used to lock anything down. The behavior of a server not implementing CORS has the same end result as a server trying to be as restrictive as possible. Both would not send any CORS headers in responses and would simply ignore pre-flight requests.
Polarization. It's a race to the bottom. My opponent behaves deceptively so I guess I will to. As far as I understand this sort of political climate has also existed in the past in the US.

> > a significant number of participants in a society/organization/government are operating with the goal of destabilizing or destroying the system

Note that this bit from GP would be readily agreed with by both the far left and far right in the US. However they would each give completely different examples of things that were destabilizing (according to them).
Agreed on the last point but isn't that the case for all improvements? From an application layer, all you see is a set of datastreams that are now less interrupted/delayed than before....
Lots of business plans are quite vague about what is to be done in future, and but I'm pretty sure, YC will ask questions on customer acquisition routes and costs, [planned] revenue model, development priorities, long term growth aspirations, when the product will come out of beta and what they'd spend the cash on.

They might not require a bullshitty chart of next year's P&L, but if you already have a clear idea what the metrics that are supposed to lead to it are (growth rate, CAC vs CLV, untapped market size) you'll be at an advantage and if you can't tell a plausible growth story about your most likely route to growth you won't (not even if your deck has the chart!)
The concept isn't new [1] but the low budget implementation is certainly quite clever. More advanced machines of this type are already in widespread use. The article makes it sound like it's a completely new concept.

When remembering past decades they identify themselves with the top 1% on the basis of having 70s 1%-markers today (eg., a degree, etc.). What has happened is that the markers of the 70s 1% are now of the c. 50% today.

The author should be mapping the life of a 70th percentile person across all the decades... till the late 70s, that person was a poor industrial worker.
Regarding Netflix, if they gave away all their content for free. At some point people would want more, and then they can raise money on the promise (and delivery) of new content based on prior works. As long as people pay the right person, they can expect to get more. Perhaps an NFT can facilitate this. Some people will free-ride and lurk, but so what?!

https://www.weargustin.com/store - they presell all their clothes before production. That should be adapted to content.

https://wikipedia.org/wiki/PledgeMusic - it died in 2019 - perhaps it could be recreated around crypto and NFTs.
Framing Accessibility in Broader Terms
Having read the original article (https://designkojo.com/post-drupal-using-jsonapi-vuejs-front...), it’s quite clear that the author doesn’t know enough about what he’s talking about to write these kinds of posts. I wouldn’t usually say this, but on security-critical topics like this, winging it just isn’t good enough. People will be misled by this article.
Newer: UI.Vision is newer and I find it easier to use. A key difference is that UI.Vision supports text reading (via OCR) out of the box: https://ui.vision/rpa/x/desktop-automation
Products getting cheaper and lower quality is a spiral I'm not sure how we are going to escape. As production "optimizes" for cost the first place they look at is wages. Low wage consumers look for the cheapest thing out there out of necessity.

Quality goods are very much a niche product these days. Economics of scale make them even more expensive than they otherwise would be. Even middle class consumers find it hard to swallow the price of a 200$ tshirt so they mostly buy Pakistan made 10$ ones, with all the environment, social, moral, etc, problems that come with that.

What's the alternative and how do we get there? I can't even begin to imagine.
WebGL 2.0 Is Now Supported in All Major Browsers
Pretty sure it’s just PR/HR gibberish to justify why this project is so acutely aware of the Xilinx chips they’re supporting.
We will switch about 6 months after adoption of IP6 is complete.
Globalization is the new slavery. Once upon a time you force-brought cheap labor to work on your plantation and paid them with food basically. Today the slaves do their work in China and you pay them with printed dollars backed by nothing.
Let me provide an alternative reading of that data:

People who have a positive outset are more likable and more likely to have successful careers, whereas people who are depressed are more likely to neglect their jobs and relations and as as a result will struggle economically.
Say what you like, but Uber made taxi approachable for regular folks in my country. Before Uber, taxi was THE LAST RESORT where a short (5 km) ride would cost you 10% of minimal wage.

So I say, keep the lie going, because people who can’t afford a car, and towns without good public transport now are mobile.
I've used AutoHotKey on Windows a while ago and the boss was impressed

Basically copying from Excel into their own system via an interface
I’m reminded of this article: Why didn't electricity immediately change manufacturing? http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-40673694

In the same way that swapping steam engines for electric motors didn’t yield much benefit. Just swapping real meetings for zoom meetings feels like a backwards step. But the real benefits come when you _reorganise_ your production processes around the new technology. Sadly for many middle managers, their role is disappearing and their income is dependent on them not understanding this.
> Balance sheets or income statements as he knows they can be full of bullshit

Agreed.

However, I do have a question for you: what do you think can be more full of bullshit, an oral financial statement by the founder during a conversation, or his audited financial statements?

Yes, the notion that balance sheets and income statements don't tell the whole story and can be misleading is a fact. It's also a fact that they're useful tools, part of elementary due diligence, in combination with conversations with founders.

He asked financial questions that are in audited financial statements. Asking a founder and assuming it's all true is fine, but when making the investment he's surely having someone do due diligence on the finances to confirm. Yet he's denied that anyone else reads these documents for him, too.
> Transitioning to SPE from standard Ethernet

What's this "standard ethernet"? Would that be the "standard" version that used fat coax and multidrop? (which happens to be two-wire)

I thought the essence of ethernet was the protocol, not the physical transmission media. You could set up an ethernet circuit using sound waves, microphones and speakers.
So lets study lottery winners instead :)

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S01676...
I'm not sure subjective experience is something that can be empirically studied in a meaningful way.

The fact that you are asking someone how they feel makes them feel different to how they would have felt if you didn't ask, and how you pose the question impacts the answer as well.

This is effect is so profound it's used in therapy. A therapist may have you note how you feel at points during the day, and the act of doing so changes how you feel.

This combination of observer effect and suggestion is really hard to avoid even if you try, it's very easy to manufacture results based on how you phrase the question.
> It only goes to show that the "Deep State" is real.

Sure -- this kind of "Deep State", the apolitical (or, if anything, authoritarian-right-leaning) one.

> But, of course, because it came from the "wrong guys" the idea got ridiculed to the Moon and back,

No, it got deservedly ridiculed because it claimed the existence of a left-leaning liberal "Deep State". Since fucking when is the military-industrial / spook-and-spy / government assassin community made up of leftie librul pinko commies?!? These are people who either don't give a shit about party politics, or if they care, tend to be right-wing hardliner God-and-country semi- (or full-on) Nazis.

> all while the people writing about it had colleagues or close family working for said "Deep State" institutions.

Sure... [Roll-eye emoji]

The leftie librul pinko commie writers (obviously rightly) denied the existence of the capital-D-Democratic leftie librul pinko commie "Deep State" that the right-wing hardliner God-and-country Nazi writers were gibbering about, and which you bought and are spouting forth here. (Wisen up and stop that shit, please. Thank you.)

The leftie librul pinko commie writers would probably be the first to admit the existence of the actually existing apolitical or right-wing hardliner God-and-country Nazi "Deep State", if that were ever up for debate, but ironically the right-wing hardliner God-and-country Nazi writers (and you?) would of course out-screech each other denying that.
You can't just throw out abstracts like some sort of pokemon and think they'll convince anyone.
He may have good ideas - or at least presented well - about management.

CORS cannot be defeated, because it does not protect
> so it’s somewhat more private

> anyone is free to contribute and build on top of it

These are great features, certainly welcome. However, I believe my point still stands, bitcoin is not philosophically 'private' indeed the entire basis for it working is that it is a public ledger (yes more private crypto does exist, like monero, but the conversation is about bitcoin). The public ledger is the feature, not a bug.

One day it might be all those things, one day I might be pope. But you can no more say it is that than you can say I am his holiness.
That is not what the article said. It would be preferable to produce real physical stuff everywhere in the world. Instead of using printed money to avoid production and still being able to buy everything someone else produced for you.

If you produce real things, and you have excess, you can use that excess to trade with other countries/states that have excess. But the USA for at least 30 years had a deficit, covered by debt, covered by printed dollars. https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/BOPGSTB
See “view PDF” at the top or alternatively visit through sci-hub, but I think you already know all that.

Edit since you rewrote your comment: I’m sorry if these studies aren’t convincing to you, I’m still waiting to see one supporting your point of view.
Care to expand? I don‘t see the point
By "business plan", he means a multi-page (usually at least 10 pages but often many many more) document with detailed predictions of what the company will do and how they will do it over the long term. That's what he's saying he doesn't ever read.

What he does read (or did, when he was still working), is the YC application form response, which is designed to glean the important information in a very succinct format.

If he likes what he reads, then he'd have a 5-10 minute conversation with the founders, and decide whether or not to invest based on that.

So, yes he wants to know what the founders' general plans are. That's very different from reading or recommending lengthy business plan documents.

I don't know why you consider those two words to be synonyms.

If anything, they are opposing concepts. You moderate a discussion exactly to prevent censorship.

"Moderation" that results in censorship is censorship, not "moderation".
for methane the issue are leaks (natural gas getting into the atmosphere), not so much flaring (combusting natural gas, releasing Co2)
I'm not in academia, I only get the option of purchasing the PDF.

In general I don't think abstracts and studies are particularly convincing, given the field is infamous for its quality problems. I can't in good faith argue like that.
> A server running where? Most "servers" are rented from a big cloud provider, and there's no physical control over it. Having to trust these is definitely worse in terms of security.

For the record, Signal's servers run on US cloud providers, including AWS and Google Cloud. Signal do not have physical control over their machines either, which I believe invalidates this point about self-hosting.
IQ, grit, and academic achievement: Evidence from rural China [pdf]
Crapification of stuff is good, you don't need a pair of jeans that lasts 400 years that you pass down to your grandchildren and most people don't want to save up for years (or take out financial products) to "invest" in furniture. The previous high quality of goods was a bug, not a feature.
But you know that sci-hub exists, no?

Sorry if I’m wrong, but you’re on HN and seem pretty technically oriented.

A good small CRM. Odoo exists, but the free tier is too simple and the first paid tier is overkill. There is still room for something in the middle.
C is the really important piece of the puzzle here. Tokyo allows for a lot of building because zoning and codes are more permissive.

But. From when I lived there, my general observation was that in exchange for keeping the cost of the house fixed, rising property values is dealt with by making property lots smaller. Where 1 house stood now stands 2.

D. apartments are plentiful and cheap. I paid ~300USD a month for a small apartment in an outer suburb of a mediumish city. I was making ~2500USD a month.
I haven't looked it up for that standard, but the pattern is often built into the protocol: it doesn't matter if it repeats after a while.

Product Marketing vs. Product Management: Two Distinct Roles
The alternative is what we had 50 years ago, quality products, quality mindset, longer term thinking.

With how the corporations are set up today, it makes sense for them to reduce wages and quality to the minimum. Corporations only see the profit in the near term, and really don't care about the future of mankind on the long term all that much - those who do get crushed by competition.

There is some talk about faking it with ESG mandates, I personally doubt its anything more than lip service.
Yeah those poor slaves queueing at Foxconn's gates to get a job assembling iphones for the evil american consumer. Because it pays a lot more than tending the rice fields like their parents.

Just for the record, I'm eastern european and slaving for the evil american tech firms ;)
Exactly. I was gonna give it the benefit of "maybe the original is JUST running the Vue.js App locally, never published anywhere, so adding the API key in the environment is fine" but no, reading the original it's clear that the author just has no idea what they are doing.
If startup business plans were accurate, 90% of them would end with "go bust".
There is a different quality to the information you receive when reading a piece of paper vs. talking to people. Depending on who you are you may gain more one way or the other. Then there is the gap between plan and execution. A plan is only worth as much as the execution behind it. And with written plans you don't know the real authors and reviewers while when talking to someone you may be able to force them to original statements and can see their ability or lack to deliver them. Last but not least plans aim at completeness outlining the overall picture while when you talk to someone the dialogue develops a certain direction and has a thrust revealing understanding of the key building blocks of the plan.
Finance, like the democratic process, should be explainable to your average person.

If it can’t be explained, it is ripe for exploitation by ones who spend most of their time trying to find loopholes to get wealthy off of some esoteric financial instruments. Much like clever MMO doing their best to find bugs in the game and find things like duplication glitches.

If it can’t be explained it is going to create a new global papacy that we have to defer our earthly futures to in hopes that they will find the magic cure for our stagnating incomes.

Much of it can’t be explained and that’s why we can’t vote our way to a world that doesn’t give the wealthy and their foot soldiers an unfair advantage to use financial instrument tricks to gain vast amounts of on-paper-wealth that can then be used to repeat the process.

Even though this is a shoot from the hip blog it does point at the fact that while globalization has seemingly made some costs cheaper for wealthy westerners, it also made the ones who planned and executed this shift many times more money.
Show HN: Clean Architecture for Next.js Template
Hi HN.

This is my attempt to create a Next.js/NodeJS template for clean architecture.

The idea is to separate implementation with interface for all layers with adapter.

Good love to hear more suggestions/improvements from you.
