>1. A "giant ass" isn't pornographic per se.

I am being charitable and assuming it is indeed a sexualized/objectified/pornographic pic of a giant ass, i.e. that OP isn't being disingenous

>2. "Extremist" is a weird way to put it.

"showing porn to kids is Good Actually" is an extremist view. if you polled people it would be a fringe opinion, and most would regard it as an abhorrent idea.

An Oklahoma state rep is currently pushing to ban Tesla from the state (although Tesla could move to tribal lands to avoid such actions if necessary) through House Bill 3994 [1]. They also manage family owned legacy automaker dealerships (per LinkedIn [2]).

Lots of bad faith efforts going to occur on the path to clean mobility due to entrenched interests.

And are group A/B distinguished by race, or other factors?

There are plenty poor whites, many struggling in red states / rust belt, that don't have power, wealth, education, connections etc. Would it be reasonable to group them with other whites who do have those connections to offset that to justify positive discrimination on a racial black/white basis?
it's wild to me that so many people frame discussions about their kids in terms of "opponents that have to be defeated"

I would replace the Rice Bran with Coconut oil or EVOO. EVOO is fine to fry in 90% of the time. For that 10%, I use Organic unrefined coconut oil.

Here is some info on EVOO

https://fat.gold/guide/

Extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) and other common cooking oils were heated up to [460 degrees F] and exposed to [350 degrees F] for 6 hours, with samples assessed at various times, testing smoke point, oxidative stability, free fatty acids, polar compounds, fatty acid profiles and UV coefficients. EVOO yielded low levels of polar compounds and oxidative byproducts, in contrast to the high levels of byproducts generated for oils such as canola oil.

No, despite what the staff of my then-college’s newspaper apparently were thinking when writing about a visit by Winnie Mandela to the US, “African-American” and “black” are not synonyms.

> In this case, it is entirely logical to me that breathing can modify circulatory patterns pumping more blood to your joints, thereby promoting healing for arthritis.

By this logic, people with tachycardia would be much faster at healing, right? Since all that you can do with breathing techniques directly (without discussing how this might affect your mind etc.) is to increase your pulse and maybe arterial pressure. Why exactly increased pulse would reduce the inflammatory auto-immune response that is the cause of arthritis is beyond me. If anything, I would expect increased blood flow to increase the auto-immune response and make the arthritis worse.

Nobody is arguing this. Why construct strange strawmen?

Working this hard to prevent your kids from seeing nudity is weird, end of story.
You can take the sim card out.
Disagree. Way too much exposition. It's sad that I would even be expected to qualify this, given how much fervor this digital experience that is colloquially called a game has going for it.

Its hard to separate the text display from the experience itself, since it is so integral. But I don't think that UI is special or better, amongst so many other benign and functional examples out there.
There is absolutely nothing Ukraine can do but sit and watch Russia do what it wants. They weren't able to defend their Eastern border back when Russia was pretending to not be involved, let alone when they openly are.

This is Crimea all over again; the West will keep making noises while Russia effectively annexes further portions of Ukraine.
What's weird is not acknowledging that a huge portion of the world is not comfortable exposing their children to nudity due to religious beliefs and/or societal norms, which is why every major search engine, social network, and app store blocks nudity with content filters.

US has not deployed to Ukraine because its not in its national interest whereas Russia does have an immediate security concern with NATO expansion to its borders after the end of the cold war.

US has deployments all over the world after WWII in order to bully and protect its own interests.

Setting aside the obvious solution of using the phone's parental controls or physically confiscating the phones each night…

1) Is there a way to arrange omnidirectional transmitters so the signal is much stronger inside a given volume than outside it? Maybe using constructive/destructive interference like a Fourier transform?

2) Wouldn't a directional antenna dish on the roof pointed down keep the signal from leaking out so much?

3) Do cellular companies provide consumers with an API or webpage to scrape that shows data usage in near-real-time so he could have set up an alert if his kids break the rule?
The law against jammers(and the harsh punishment) is absolutely dictated by the fact that it blocks emergency services first and foremost though. It's messing with critical infrastructure of our society. The fact that it blocks someone's netflix access is only secondary.
It's also how domain ownership is verified before issuing security certificates. It's used in a lot of places.

The title speaks of being a "login with X" which made me expect something else than this manual step, like you could login to HN in a frame and somehow it queried your login status or so. Depending on the CORS headers, that could have been possible but then every site on the Internet can query the same, unless this person talked to HN owners. To me this is just the core interesting part of the story (but then I'm a security person who works with web security on a daily basis). The title isn't intentionally misleading, and it's still a "login with", just not how I was expecting it.
You shouldn't be looking for a TV that doesn't show porn ads but one that doesn't show any ads. I've a mid-priced Android TV that doesn't have any, neither in homescreen nor mid programme. But should mention, I read that Google revamped the homescreen within the last months and from screenshots it seems the entire thing is a big space to ad new content (similar to LG's WebOS and Samsung's Tizen).
I started playing yesterday and have not yet completed the tutorial stuff yet, I quit in the middle of it in fact.
You give it the Cuban treatment (not that I think that's right for the case of Cuba..).

Basically, the EU and US need to agree to completely blockade the country, limit travel to it, cut its access to global financial system, heck even cut its internet (yay less bitcoin hacks), and do absolutely everything but war for now.

> You are still asking to encode a qualitative judgement into law, which is difficult even in less democratic countries.

I disagree. In pandemic times every democratic country had a list of safe and not-safe countries regarding traveling restrictions. I demand something similar for business restrictions.

> Your plan would ironically make more sense in an autocracy where such ideology can be more easily implemented and enforced.

Laws can better be enforced in Democracies, because usually laws are created so that they reflect the majority opinion and there is less corruption.
Down for me. Using the browser.
As many others have said, just don't plug it into the internet....

But that might not be possible if you wanted to use netflix or something on it, as well as tv channels through an aerial.

I just run everything through my PS5 (Previously a PS4, I'm sure there are other options, but I think a lot of set tops have their own advertising channels)

The playstation doesn't show me any adds except if I go to the PSN store, you can download all the major providers like netflix, apple tv, plex etc

I never switch to the TVs own channel
How about making your own company or career? Would that help? (It definitely helped me in a lot of ways.)

I’m curious what you mean by ‘how broke the system really is’. Which system are you referring to, how is it broken, how could it be fixed, and what kind of expectations did you have going in that?
It felt great at first. Once you realize that the company - respected/known as a place that does the right thing - doesn't follow its own policies and screws people over, you realize that every company/job sucks. It won't be better anywhere else. And you wasted your youth on obscure and obsolete tech because the company needed it and you wrongly believed their promises that they would take care of you (retraining, career growth, not laying off, not outsourcing, etc).

> Corvidae or Corvids in English (from the Latin word for "raven" I believe): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corvidae

The other way around: Raven is an English word, a species; Corvidae the Latin one of the family of species which includes the species raven (words ending on 'ae' is multiple in Latin, and typically denotes a Latin etymology (Latin origin)).
But this is pretty trivial to prove. All you need is set up some sort of router with open wifi, and check the client list. The fact that such proof hasn't showed up despite the anecdotes being around for years should make you very skeptical.

Anti consumer in some ways but I'm kind of struck on a daily basis with how nice and thoughtfully designed my Apple stuff is. (M1 Air and old SE). I mean if they were really anti consumer then why do they dominate consumer spending? I'm not aware of anyone forcing me to buy this stuff.
[deleted, it's quite obvious HN is not interested in actual discussion]
I have a semi-recent Sony TV and it has shitty ads on the home screen too, unfortunately. I feel like there's an opportunity here for a brand to sell an ad-free TV. I know I'd pay an extra 200-400 and a lot of other people here too.
> But how to you get that $1b valuation by making yet another client based on open standards? You have to corner the market, and 90% of HN readership want to create or work for a new unicorn, not just improve technology for the sake of it.

Feel free to make a better Slack, that's more usable, more reliable, with more integrations, and run it on IRC. The implementation details mean little to users. Thinking Slack won because it was a closed standard and not that it's better than IRC for the majority of its users is quite the reach.

Your colleague from marketing:

Yes, of course, and he was immediately fired. Your attempts to portray one official's opinion at a security conference, who was immediately fired for uttering it (a very drastic measure), as the voice of the German Navy are patently absurd. And, at pain of stating the obvious, it is not the job of the Navy to evaluate the possibilities of land warfare...

> The Roku OS is fantastic and neutral as far as the various content provider services go.

I originally like Roku, because they used to be a neutral hardware provider, but that's not the case these days. Their OS is becoming more full of ads and are really trying to push their own content. And now nearly every time I see the Roku in the news is that they don't have new provider or that they're thinking of kicking off a provider because they're trying to get a cut of revenues.
The Apple TV is a pretty Crappy Device to replace it with. The UI is nearly just as bad.

I will say the new Apple TV remote does make it usable. The old touch one was horrible.
People are not the groups they belong to. Looking at it as "carrot vs. stick" already reveals you're thinking about this the wrong way.

You're right, discrimination happens and it's not codified. So the solution is to start codifying discrimination? That kind of thing is either wrong or it isn't. The ends don't justify the means.
Couldn't agree more. The gameplay elements are incredibly good, but the dialogue and storyline are dreary.
Re (1) and (2), remember jamming is illegal even on your own property. So even if those ideas did work, you'd just be helping him get away with committing a crime.
What's also interesting is their carefully crafted language. They have "Slack is not loading for some users" listed everywhere instead of "most users" or "all users" and also "Something's not quite right" instead of "Something's not working" or "Something's wrong".
Thanks. I guess the docs are correct about "end" defaulting to infinity, as "(range)" by itself in the REPL just locked everything up (for about 2 minutes, then resulted in an error of "Invalid string length")

In every pokemon game I remember playing as a young child, the default text speed was painfully slow.
I can provide 2 examples of text in games that I've never been tired of reading:

- OSRS quests: Even though the "press spacebar in quests" meme still applies, the quest dialogue box is small enough - with a decent sized font [1]- that I don't feel tired reading through the tidbits one box at a time

- Control: I'm a big fan of SCP so I have an _incentive_ to go through all of the collectible files, then read through them. In this instance, having optional incentivized reads massively boost my enjoyment of the game.

The analytics revolution wasn't about short players specifically, the 3-point revolution aspect was mainly about selecting shots based on the expected value of the shot. The warriors in this aspect was very far behind the curve compared to Houston. The main takeaway for them was taking shots from farther behind the three point line, but they didn't have an emphasis on corner 3s (which are closer to the basket) or de-emphasis on mid-range shots (between the 3 point line and outside of 8 to 10ish feet from the basket). They (along with the rest of the league) were trending towards Moreyball during their championship years (particularly in 2015-16 if I remember correctly) but there were years where they mainly had extraordinary shooters.
That's a great one! Added it to my list of suggested reading in the repo.

I don't think jail is required here, I think a simple "don't do it again would suffice". It is not like he intended to disrupt the entire city.

I have the similar issues trying to keep my kids focused during the school day. I finally found a way to block him that didn't block my job access, and turns out all the kids are passing around VPN accounts to get around parental locks.

I call Twitter a "hate laser." Hate bounces back and forth between camps of angry people and is amplified until it shoots out and causes damage in the real world. Twitter isn't the only platform like this or even the most toxic, but I think it does the most harm by virtue of its size.

Virtually all discourse on there is toxic, but especially anything that touches politics. The political position doesn't matter. No matter what it is the content is always a barrage of lazy memes, brutal ad hominem, and the violent dismemberment of straw men.

As most of these things come: in some ways, but not in others. Bucharest too has terrible poverty (but it's getting better, slowly), but it is much stronger connected to a far wealthier part of the world and part of the EU so a lot of work is being done that will probably be out of reach for Nairobi for the next couple of decades at least.

Both cities are their nations capitals, both have tremendous historical baggage to contend with. And Bucharest is continuously one major earthquake away from disaster. Nairobi has the bigger population by about a factor of two. Infrastructure is better in Bucharest, but not as much as you might think.

And on a somewhat larger scale: both countries have been under the boot of another power for a long time and are still suffering from that in many ways. Both countries also have very high levels of corruption, though, Kenya has it entrenched at a much higher level, and obviously this has major effects on doing business in their respective capitals.
Apparently not or they'd have used that right?
