Why babies cry in the first three months, how to tell them apart, and what to do
Maybe to the more technical crowd that’s true. But to the average person uploading their videos to YouTube it most definitely is.
Coffee increases my anxiety and anger but I love the taste and the ritual. I have quit multiple times only to come back after a couple of months. This usually occurs because I drink too much alcohol one night and need a pickup in the morning. In the last couple of years my alcohol consumption has gone down to next to nothing and three months ago I quit coffee again (hopefully for the last time). If I go cold turkey I get severe migraines for several days. To avoid the migraines I go from regular coffee, to de caffeinated coffee, to tea, to a root tea. Currently, I am trying to avoid a hot drink in the mornings. I have been successful for a week now but miss the ritual.
I wonder how much of that was the sugar too.
Yep. The only 6502s that I’ve seen recently can single step. But it’s still amazing they are being sold to this day!
That's still not what's being used here.
New Orleans, Louisiana where 18.8% of households live without cars has a 23.7% poverty rate and a median income of $41,604, that’s well below the national average.

Dallas Texas where 10.2% of households live without cars has a 18.9% poverty rate, median income of $52,580, so it’s larger, wealthier, and denser yet has significantly more cars.

Also, 20% is unusually high. Nationwide it’s about 8.7% and that’s heavily influenced by NYC. Excluding just NYC and that number falls closer to 7%.

PS: It’s really region specific but in general the wealthy are more likely to own a car in their area but different areas don’t have anything close to the same breakdown. https://slate.com/business/2019/05/maps-car-ownership-income.... Just look at El Paso vs San Jose on the bottom graph.
After seeing posts like this on HN for years, this one officially scared me enough to completely migrate off Gmail altogether. I’m in the process right now of removing my gmail from any online account.

Pro-tip: if you use a password manager, it’s as easy as searching for your Gmail address. For all other accounts, I’ve been able to find them by searching for the phrases “verify your email” or “verify email” or “verification” in Gmail.

Just imagining the nightmare that would happen if I got locked out of my Gmail account (10 years of accounts)…I can’t believe I didn’t do it sooner.

You can also do a full export of your Google data, which I highly recommend.

Switched to fastmail recently for my personal domain and could not be happier with the service. It costs money every month, so they have actual human support if anything goes wrong.
It's just not the same humans that feel pity and harm animals. There's about 2% of sociopaths among humans IIRC.

A Way To: Use Components, Featuring Proxy, Reflect, Lazy, and Suspense
I'm a freelancer who likes to make stuff. So I made a web application framework, and now I'm making a blog to help explain what it does.

I hope you may find it resourceful. And I'm more than happy to hear feedback on the blog style as well as any technical interests.

> Exactly. Unicode’s “job” is to provide a code point for every letter

And in this case Unicode fails catastrophically by not providing codepoints for the uppercase of "ı" and the lowercase of "İ" while potentially allowing for ethnically sensitive renderings of shit.
Warning labels, perhaps not. But in Australia I cannot run Cat6 for "safety". I might electrocute someone with the 12V and must get a licensed professional to do the work for me.

A label warning that high voltage is inside is fine, a required label is quite ok, a fine because you didn't put the label on (even though it wasn't explicitly required) is a little bit of a stretch, banning modification is clearly an overreach (in my book).

There is a line somewhere, and drawing it too close to either end is harmful. So now we're arguing degrees, and not absolutes.
This is a good lesson in why you should save data that you care about off line and or in multiple places...
PHP Pipes in 156 Bytes
Slightly related, but IIRC WordPress has a native feature that allows you to create posts by email. If it’s not WordPress, it might have been a plugin, Blogger, or WP.com.
> Mozilla is not a Linux distro.

That's true. But should I interpret this to mean, "All that stuff about how careful we are doesn't actually apply to any third party software, we only do that for code we wrote" ? Because the thing about a Linux distro is that it's overwhelmingly third party software.

If that stuff does apply to NSS, then all that hard work apparently missed this pretty serious bug that could not have happened in a safe language.
I bought one of those government approved containers. It's impossible to fill it without spilling gas, and I absolutely hate spilling gas. (The nozzle is spring loaded, such that it takes a fair amount of force to open it. Then, when the container is full, it squirts out the top faster than I can react.)

> This is an outcome of the historic process which gave us modern Unicode.

That historic process does not preclude introducing two extra codepoints to at least allow for the possibility of correctly encoding the upper case of "ı" and the lower case of "İ".
> We have decided the question is something like "how many kids should we let die so that the rest can play with chemistry sets?" and concluded the answer is few to none.

Yet, new versions of Tesla Autopilot hit the road every week, and the public is used as beta-testers.
In this sense we are the government. The people that are getting hurt in auto accidents are us, and in a large number of cases not just the person behind the wheel of bad driving.

If you crash into someone and you die but they dont, they are still left as a burden on society to take care of.
Nah dude, almost nobody thinks that. You're letting your biases cloud your judgement. You see one person saying some stupid thing and you assume that's representative of a larger group. It's not.
We refuse to talk about obvious contributors to poverty like out-of-wedlock births, and then we wonder why we have so much difficulty understanding the problem.

A healthy culture fosters those attitudes and outlooks that enable people to take care of themselves. Simple stuff like "don't have sex until married", "take care of your kids", "go to school", "work hard", "mind your money" are for many people bedrock values that serve them well. Instead we have subcultures that celebrate promiscuity, materialism and sexism, encourage drug use and dealing, and actively discourage positive behaviors. And we wonder why those in those subcultures do poorly? But we cannot criticize them because that would be insensitive or judgmental or -- worst -- racist.

When someone is making a mistake it is no help to overlook the mistake.

Abandoning helpful mindsets because they are hard to build is no solution. Of course being poor wears down positivity and agency, we've always known this. That shouldn't mean we give up on trying to help people adopt the approaches that will help them.

I don't have the solution to poverty, it is a very complicated and self-sustaining problem whose solutions are going to involve changes in many areas. But we're never going to solve it until we have a better conversation about what causes it.

Paradoxically it may be worthwhile for the government to forbid helmets in that case, because morgues cost less than hospitals.
"The Paleolithic diet is well known in the literature to be a clear replicate of our ancestors' diet."

I notice you've not provided any references for this statement. The so-called palaeolithic diet is hotly debated, regarding both what it consisted of, and whether it would be beneficial.

The terse, almost glib way you've skated around this highly provocative topic significantly damages any confidence I have in what you've written. Also, the way you've started this article with a list of people who you say have reviewed your work is a red flag. Referencing Wikipedia is another.

I'm unclear what you're trying to do. You're emulating an academic writing style, but there is a lot of odd grammar and paraphrasing others instead of directly quoting them.

You may be onto something, but I really can't tell because I can't get past these issues.

Think about your audience, and find a domain-relevant editor.

Good luck!
You're decades late on that. The AI is already deliberately making the faces imperfect. That's one of the early things you'd focus on when building systems like this.
Came here to say the same thing. With multiple dispatch and JIT compilation, you’ll go a long way in Julia with the naive version of the code.
What can I say? In 1985, my parents went on an organized tour to Munich (it's not like they could've went on their own) and bought a deeply discounted Speccy and smuggled it -- it's not like we could've afforded a computer any other way. At the same time, they sent me to a computer-focused summer camp at the nearby community center. Of course, some of it was just playing video games but some of it was learning BASIC, also on ZX Spectrum machines. I was ten.

I am 47. I am still coding. It's not BASIC but still. In my niche, I have become one of the world's top for doing what I do and I am paid far beyond anything that ten year old in socialist Hungary could've dreamed of. Not that boy had a lot in dreams beyond the fierce desire to live a different life... I wrote that up just two months ago https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29681279 Ironically, I still live in a concrete high rise built in the early 70s but a Vancouver high rise on the shores of the English Bay is slightly more livable than a Hungarian microraion.

Thanks Speccy for giving me the opportunity. I ran with it.
I've noticed a lot of turns at traffic lights are getting explicit red arrows. A solid green light without an arrow means that you need to give way to pedestrians and other vehicles if turning. It feels to me no one is looking any more, they just think green means go. I think it's because we've trained them out of thinking with too many constraints.
It comes from a dogmatic reaction against microservices. Microservices were problematic in certain ways, but instead of analysing what went wrong and why, they just went the opposite direction and started doing "big services only". It was a misguided approach, plain and simple.

Interestingly due to internal bureaucracy and understaffing in some teams, there was a lot of "multiple-teams-per-service", which yeah, is another issue in itself.
I'm having troubles too. I picked Mts Rainier, Adams, and St Helen as my test area and can't help but prefer the conventional.

> Zemmour, a media pundit who promotes the far-right “great replacement” theory that Muslim immigrants are supplanting the populations of European countries

It's puzzling how this theory persists, when it's so easy to disprove - simply show a graph of non-European-background population of France for 1945-2022. If it's low/flat, then the theory is false, simple as that.

In fact, journalists should do this themselves. Just like they sometimes put graphs of historic temperatures and CO2 concentrations in climate change articles, because they know a tangible measurement is far more persuasive than just namecalling deniers "conspiracy theorists", they should include historic demographic data in great replacement articles. It won't convince everyone, but it'll be a lot more persuasive than namecalling.
We could plausibly tie it to targeted inflation (or just have it rise on a fixed schedule). We shouldn't tie it to measured or anticipated inflation, for the reasons you say.
> HTTP stuff should[1] be an adapter for transport agnostic business logic.

There's no reason to assign methodology or context to a software process. It's useful or it is not, for qualities of utility that are unique to use cases. With such soft terms as "adapter" and "business logic" you can rationalize anything anyway, so I'm not sure that's a compelling statement on it's face. Across various languages, this methodology has been used since the 90s. It's "an oldie but goodie".

[1]"should" is a weasel word, that typically is a stand-in for "I believe this". It's unlikely that I subscribe to your specific belief.
The way this usually works in the USA is a “homeowner’s exemption” - you can run cat6 in your house all you want but you can’t charge others to do it for them without certification/licensing.

Which can lead to all sorts of fun homeowner specials when you buy an older property.
How many more pleas like this will we see on HN? Or, hear from friends, colleagues, and relatives who have been locked out or denied access to an important service, either through no fault of their own or by an innocent action?

No warning.

No explanation other than "suspicious activity" or "violation of [vaguely worded] policy."

No human to call who can help troubleshoot, other than a tech-savvy friend or relative.

No recourse.

There needs to be a technology bill of rights, not just for people dealing with Google, Amazon, Apple, and Facebook, but also the myriad other technology operators which can disrupt our lives in an instant with some poorly programmed process or unanticipated edge case. Ultimately, the OP or my non-tech savvy employee or my mother should be able to get real answers and/or help from a human being when wronged by Google, a telco, or the local bank.

(Repost #1)
this is describing a tendency to shift the burden of trust from those immediately connected to you (e.g. your parents) to those more distanced from you (govt authorities). there’s economic efficiency arguments for this sort of thing: parents can’t keep up with state-of-the-art knowledge in every field, whereas specialization can allow for a system that does. but it creates more fragility (individual mistakes have widespread costs: see prescription opioids leading to mass addiction) and ossification (long after illicit/underground culture has learned something valuable it’s hard to take that mainstream: see the impact of psychedelics on PTSD or depression. or for a case to show that we haven’t reached complete ossification but just slower dissemination, ketamine for depression (which has achieved recent approvals after significant efforts)).
I grew up in Africa.

We had snakes going through our yard, every day, that would make you brownulate your jodhpurs. We had bugs that, when they bit you, hurt for a month.

My favorite toys were these painted sheet-metal cars and spaceships, with flints and sanding wheels. They would spit out showers of sparks.

I survived.

But ask any parent that has lost a child. It's absolutely devastating. I know a number of them. I never, ever want to tell them that their child's life is worth less than my freedom from inconvenience.

It's really not a black/white issue, and I have no answers.
> Does anyone really have a problem with mandating basic safety?

Yes. That is why he included the example.

It is totally ridiculous that if I do something that puts myself at a minor risk then I get funnelled into a system where the options are compliance or imprisonment.

The situation is complicated somewhat by the fact that as far as we call tell a rational person should agree with what the system is demanding, and it isn't important enough to fight about. But nevertheless, imprisonment should not be a theoretical outcome for someone wilfully choosing not to wear a seatbelt.

I don't know, I'm not a domain expert. Maybe they don't imprison people for that and just bankrupt them. Still wildly disproportionate and an idiotic formal response to a minor bad decision.
An easement is actually a very strong real property right. That term doesn't really apply in this context though. Here you just need a "right" to download your content before it is deleted.
In your own house you can not run Cat6? Or is it just can't install as a professional? If the first one, then that is loicense culture gone too far.
The main problem with the interpretation that the GPL sets conditions for use of software is that it specifically claims it does not:

> Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running the Program is not restricted,

Now there are some ways to try to do an end-run around this clause, it does raise some questions about how you get the right to run the program without "this License". But if we take the text seriously, it disclaims any restrictions on use.

This is the part where the derivative work standard comes in. Because if the GPL doesn't set conditions on use, your use of the software doesn't require complying with that license. The GPL would only enter in if you are going beyond mere use, e.g. are you making a legal derivative work (not the GPL definition)

(Not legal advice.)
A genuine question, from someone who doesn't have the option: would you prefer to have it banned?
It is possible to learn it from a book on your own. I recommend The Feeling Good Handbook by David D. Burns. https://www.amazon.com/Feeling-Good-Handbook-David-Burns/dp/...

This is the book my therapist had me read as part of my “homework” between sessions.

While this is completely anecdotal, it’s helped a number of people I’ve recommended it to and they have recommended it to others, who also have been helped. Learning what emotions are, what they mean, and how to recognize them is empowering.
No, sorry, GP has a point. I think we have all seen lots of developer tools and concepts by now, but I’m also still waiting for actual applications we actually need ledgers for. Even in the additional three links you’ve posted, there’s nothing that isn’t a developer tool or demo and wouldn’t work with traditional technology.

Im genuinely curious, do you have any examples that do exist now, are remotely useful, and wouldn’t work without web3 tech?
Mobile market has created wide access that was not something available to game devs in past - that's why there were game publishers. The speed of gaining market also is significantly faster. So, when devs complain about market speed slowing down - it is not because of clones.

Clones apparently are appealing to completelly different market segment, than what "original" aimed at. It is erroneous to assume, that it was their market in first place!

Ideas are sh!t and means nothing!

If you have an idea - that means, that someone else(in counts of 100s or 1000s) have the same idea already, or someone else in past had that idea. There has been examples of similar products developed independently at the same time, so they might have looked like clones but they are not always clones. So, claiming that ideas are unique and should be somewhat appropriately rewarded... phew!

I can relate to the frustrations that are described in article, but at the same time I can't understand if the people that complain have no brains, if they had not foreseen this outcome and did not calculated for how long they will get profit from their product - which was not forever in the first place!!!

PS If you are an indie developer, you should educate yourself at least in basic level of marketing, law and business. And after that decide if indie development is for you and if you have a killing insticts of a shark or you are going to be food.

It’s fascinating to me that they keep overlooking and/or downright abusing their contributors on their answer hub / forums (in the form of routinely wiping content in a knowledge base that’s been built up for years).
Public won't prevent the same bogus "cyber-bullying" auto-ban.
I personally theorize that many of these considerations are practical, as education quality and quantity have both dropped considerably in the USA over the last generation or so, and precipitously so over two or three generations.

The median person has a lot less knowledge, education, and experience today than in the past, and I hope and believe that the current circumstance is a general response to that as opposed to simply a legal system run amok with assignment of liability.
Your own quoted article says "1.2 million persons had been born in Germany, 5 million had two native-German parents, and 6 million had one native-German parent." "Many more had distant German ancestry. During WWII, the United States detained at least 11,000 ethnic Germans, overwhelmingly German nationals.[3] The government examined the cases of German nationals individually, and detained relatively few in internment camps".

So millions with German ancestry, detained some who were German nationals and only a few in internment camps.

The last processor generation it worked on is the 486, but on a Pentium or newer it always fails with a “Debugging is not allowed” message.

I guessed the reason for that correctly - prefetch queue. Mentions of CUP386 in the comments also brought back more memories of the cracking scene in the late 80s/early 90s. There's some very interesting discussion on SMC vs CPU behaviour here --- in the context of an open-source 486-level SoC core:

You found something you're naturally excited about and you want to do it less?
Are you talking about running it in your own house?

Because if you're talking about a commercial building you are talking about a non zero chance of setting up a situation that can harm others. It's not about the 12v. It's about you getting it hooked in with 110/220 and killing someone else. People that do it professionally tend to have liability insurance you pay your survivors something.
Back up everything in G-Suite outside of Google. If your Youtube account is connected to your G-Suite services they are at risk as well.

Geo dispersed NAS is probably the most cost effective long term but for now the important thing is getting data off Google services before you lose it forever. So take a look at other cloud providers in the short term. The more you interact with Google and ask questions the more likely it is they shut down more access.

If you have your domains registered with them move it somewhere else, preferably a dedicated registrar so you can at least re-host email and website.
Literally on the page:

"Due to product restrictions, we cannot sell this product online.

My guess is there will be some ID check, or maybe they only sell to people with "legitimate need" or whatever because the feds get on their ass otherwise.

Any government that puts people on a blacklist for buying over n pounds of fertilizer, peroxide, whatever is a bad government.
