Well originally Moscow was a ‘colony’ of Kievan Rus. Of course much has happened in the subsequent 800 years but historically there was no clear line between being an Ukrainian and a Russian. I’m not trying to imply that Ukrainians are Russians and their desire to stay independent is perfectly legitimate but the relationship between Russia and Ukraine is much more analogous to Germany and Austria than the one between Ireland and Britain (which didn’t share the same language, culture and origin).
When I watched the Superbowl, I saw plenty of celebrities and politicians socializing without masks. But on Monday morning, all of the kids had to wear masks at school. If the politicians think that masks are so important, the least they can do is wear them when they're going to be filmed in public.
Breaking distance and collision energy scale with square of the speed. So reduction from 70 to 60 is 27% reduction.

Also minimal safe distance is 3 seconds at your current speed. If you can't keep that distance because of traffic - you should slow way down, not to 60 km/h but much lower. So either your comparison isn't fair or the person doing 60 km/h with 2 seconds of gap is the reason the road is unsafe, not the traffic.

"Then, in October 2020, when it was clear public schools were not going to open that fall, I proposed to the company leadership that we weigh in on the topic of school closures in our city, San Francisco."

October 2020 -- not like it was April. Much of the country had at least some in-person schooling going on. It should have been at least discussable without saying she's racist and doesn't care if all the minority children die.

Same here. There's no value-add to the user for turning previously open podcasts into Spotify exclusives. I understand that Spotify and podcasters have to pay the bills, but they're not even trying to counter-balance the user-hostility with some benefits like ad-free listening or a proper podcast UI. And it's not like Spotify is desperate to have paying customers; they're one of the largest subscription streaming platforms around!

Actually I think you have it backwards. The notion that traders consistently beat the market is hurting a lot of people. There are extremely few traders who beat the market year over year. It becomes vanishingly fewer every year you add. Which is what you would expect for a system where luck plays a big role and nobody can actually predict the market.

Tldr; way too many people believe that a lot of people can beat the market and that is what actually hurts the most investors.

I bet there's lots of companies that would hire you, based on this particular HN thread alone. Here's what could be worth doing, and wouldn't take much time at all:

1. put together a one-page website, on a domain like firstnamelastname.com
2. Add a link to this page
3. Put a link to your website in your email signature

Done! Now everyone you ever email, if they want to know more about you, will know that you're _deeply_ proficient in certain domains, and it'll be up to them to decide that you might be a good fit.

Since you've got this particular charge against you, and the US makes it nearly impossible for people who have run afoul of the state to legally be paid, but you _might_ be able to open up a Stripe account, and create a "payment link" (https://stripe.com/payments/payment-links) for a one-off "roadmapping sessions" (https://doubleyourfreelancing.com/roadmapping/) where a company/team pays you $10,000 and you'll visit them (virtually or in person) for a day or two to talk about their thorniest security problem.

"The system" wants you to apply to (and be hired into) an entry-level position, but that would be a giant waste of your time and everyone else's.

To be perfectly honest, i have found primary care doctors pretty useless in the last 5 - 10 years, not only did i find that their answers were things i could easily find on google, i also noticed that most of them didn't actually care about patient well being. It seems like most doctors these days are only in it for the money, which is fine if they are actually providing a valuable service, but low level doctors are nothing more than glorified drug dealers at this point.

When I go to buy a book, I buy a book with the hope it will make me grow as a person. That said, there are many books that implant mind viruses into the reader and the reader uses the book as an ideological weapon against reality. They take the author too seriously and don't doubt or become skeptical about different parts of the book, instead they taking everything to heart. This is why some books are basically a comment on other books, or a retort.
There are plenty of Trump voters around here, they tend to have big TRUMP signs and American flags in their front yards so they're not hard to spot.

From my perspective, Trump acted as the human incarnation of rage and impatience for a substantial fraction of the US population, and he fed on and encouraged public displays of bad behavior. Setting that type of example from the White House can't be inconsequential.

Pandemic fatigue is a real thing here too. Just because we have an above-average level of mask-wearing compliance doesn't mean people aren't heartily sick of the whole thing.
1. Yes. Remotely

2. Sort of. It has good keyboard support and completely different mouse support to most platforms.

3. It probably isn’t within the thermal envelope specified and the storage available.

4. Surface is horrible so I’m not sure why that’s comparable.

5. Yes they do and are exposed by macOS only.

I agree with apple. One of the reason iPads are so damn good is that they put some constraints on them to stop people doing horrible things. Virtualisation is one of those horrible things.

This is a nice article but a bit beginnerish and gets facts wrong partly because the author seems a bit vague on the difference between a maker and taker in a transaction. The maker is the party that sits there waiting for bids and offers to come in and that taker is the party that doesn't wait and says buy this now or sell this now. The bid is the lower price that a maker offers to buy stock for and the ask is the higher price that they offer to sell it for. In the first example

> What you can buy it for? (Your best bid)

> What you can sell it for? (What you’d ask for it)

They have it the wrong was around I think in that the amount you can buy an iphone for as a taker / customer is generally higher than what you can sell it for so what you can buy it for is the (dealers) ask price and what you can sell it for is their bid. If you are a dealer / maker with a stack of iphones sitting there then the higher price you offer to sell them for is what you ask and the bid is what you'll offer for people selling you their phones.

There are some other simplifications too like "All prices are completely transparent." In an ideal world but in reality there are off market transactions, wash trading, faking and so on.
It is not illegal to fire workers without a cause. All layoffs are letting people go for no cause (with their work or behavior). Many states are "right to work" states where you and or your employer can decide to part ways at anytime for no reason.

It is illegal to let people go for some reasons but in most cases letting people go for no reason at all is just fine.
> Grammar covers the correct use of the syntax of a language. With syntax alone you cannot know whether a program is a correct use of a language -- that is, it will parse or compile, even if its output is nonsensical. A grammar lets you do that.

Suppose I am writing a Pascal compiler. I might start with a grammar for Pascal, expressed in EBNF. I might write a parser from that grammar, either by hand, or by using some parser generator. My parser converts text (or a sequence of tokens generated by an independent lexical analysis stage) to some kind of parse tree or abstract syntax tree.

Since Pascal is a statically typed language, I also need to write some code to do type-checking. If you look at a tutorial on writing a compiler, you might see this presented as a subsequent compilation stage, after parsing is complete. It takes the AST and symbol table, annotates it with type information (possibly even doing type inference), and checks various rules are obeyed.

And, an EBNF grammar doesn't tell us how to do it. Generally you'd either express it informally, or if you were going to use some kind of formalism, you'd use a rather different formalism from those in which programming language grammars are commonly expressed. There are "typed grammar" formalisms which combine type-checking into parsing, but you don't see them commonly used by people implementing programming languages in the real world. In my experience they are mainly popular in academia (and I've seen them presented more often in the context of natural language processing than programming languages.)

I don't get the impression you are thinking of one of those "typed grammar" formalisms; I more get the impression that you are using the word "grammar" in an idiosyncratic way which elides the conceptual distinction between syntax and semantics, and ignores the standard usage in which the word "grammar" is primarily associated with the former not the later.
Show HN: A computer vision model to help identify Valentine's chocolates
This is great! Thank you for sharing.

But... is anyone else growing tired of the sales-pitch we're all using? And do any of us find it valuable for ourselves when we read them? We've trained ourselves (collectively, as an industry) to expect a specific type of one-page: hero image, call-out-message with CTA, then abstract illustrations combined with text about how great something is. I don't know what I want in it's place (let's be honest, I'm clearly no marketing expert!), but what we've landed on has an incredibly bad signal:noise ratio.
That was it! Not sure how I didn’t notice that.

Also think I might like that. Thanks.
>you don't need to be the one to bring it up

Yes, you do. I don't know about other countries, but everywhere in the US runs a background check. You will get a reasonable "no" rate, but telling people your situation is very much better than looking like you were hiding it when they eventually find out.

Many projects have changed names over the years to avoid confusion and give other projects some space in the realm of ideas. Perl was briefly Pearl, but dropped the 'a' due to such a conflict. Microsoft changed from "Git Virtual File System", abbreviated "GVFS", to "Virtual File System for Git", abbreviated "VFS for Git" because there was already a critical mass of articles and documentation for the GNOME Virtual File System. Where a name causes confusion among users, it's good practice to choose a new name even if there's no trademark.

Lots of other projects have similar names across different types of software projects, which can be a little confusing but not as confusing as the same name in the same sphere. "Sphinx" for example represents at least a documentation generator, a search engine and text indexer, a data collection package for research, materials simulation library (as "SPHInX"), an integrated hardware/software access control package, and a network monitoring system. "Argus" is at least a commercial real estate software package, a network and systems monitoring and alerting system similar to Nagios or Sensu, a museum collection management package, a network activity auditing package, safety case management software from Oracle, a high-tech optical analysis system for the sheet metal forming industry, a secure messaging solution for medical information, a suite of system monitoring and management tools for Windows, and an augmented reality (AR) system for support & troubleshooting in multiple manufacturing industries.

As for "Go" for a language, I don't think confusion was likely. This other language doesn't seem to have been in widespread use or documented broadly outside the one project lead's own pages. It might have been kind to this other creator to change the name, but I don't think it was really necessary to avoid pain in the broader community.
>a world without CORS would be a world where those rights are always granted.

Or a world where those rights are never granted.

Which of those you conclude is a matter of semantics, and this interpretability contributes to the confusion around what CORS actually does. It's that confusion which another commenter was addressing [0] and that my comments sought to support/clarify. You may be unaware that some people believe that CORS is intended to "lock things down" vs. "open them up". They don't understand that it's opt-in or the default behavior without it.

But, it's a matter of fact that usage of CORS presents risks vs the default policy, and those risks must be considered. That's really the point vs the idea that CORS has no utility.

It's worth noting too that, strictly speaking, there are frequently workarounds to the default policy that don't require CORS, some of which are arguably more secure by way of being less prone to configuration errors.

> 6.1 Fonts Can Contain SVG

This is amazing-- it means someone can design a font where glyphs consist only of SVG elliptical arcs!

Ooh even better-- the font designer could place the arcs in such a way that setting large-arc and sweep flags would generate different glyphs.

If someone has not designed such a font in the year 2022 then what are the large-arc and sweep flags even for? How can we seriously continue calling this site Hacker News? Why isn't this very comment full of SVG arcs?!?

Edit: OMG what about animating the large-arc and sweep flags in an SVG-based font? I want a transition that starts at war with Eastasia on a Monday and ends on war with Eurasia on a Tuesday.

Those are all different, so it's hard to explain in one sentence. Broadly speaking, Bubble is not that great for internal tools as you have to use add-ons for UI components and integrations. Appsheet is not suited well for complex multi-page workflows and is limited in integrations wheres in Jet you can consolidate data from lots of resources in one app + it's easier to set relations, drill-downs and pass and transform values to create complex interactive apps. Compared to Retool and Appsmith, we're faster to build standard use-cases and those can be build without coding.

This doesn't sound like something a health society would want to embrace.

This woman publicly went against the establishment narrative, which is a dangerous play in modern America (see Joe Rogan e.g.).

Well, turns out, her views were generally CORRECT. She was right. The mob was wrong.

Or at least, her opinions were as valid as the rest of us, since we're watching in real time as the last two year's of covid hysteria are memory-holed now that they're deemed a political liability in the next election. IOW, "Trust the Science" has, therefore, been shown to have been mostly bullsh*t.

A healthy society would generally reward someone who was proven to be right, especially when they risked so much calling out that the emperor was naked.

But it seems like we've entered a period where, even if you're later proven to have been correct, the mere act of defying the mob, is enough to permanently cancel you. It is an unforgivable sin.
