The main problem is that Grammarly doesn't want their models/rules/etc. to end up out of their control, hence they do the checking on their server.

But this means it MUST BE a key logger, how else could it work?

But tbh. what irritates me the most, is how bad their product is.

At least with this type of errors I do (some dyslexia, English being the second language, and me having some uh bad past with English in school).

Like the "corrections" they recommend (which go beyond what a "dictionary" spell checker is able to do) are often wrong and will result in another wrong text.

It's pretty obsessed with writing in one specific style.

It seems to have some major problems with listings.

It also seems to want to change anything with some subtle undertone to a version without it.

I would say maybe for people already somewhat good at English which do not make the kind of errors I often do, writing soulless "business" English, it might be good.

If it wouldn't be a major risk to confidentiality.

I do not trust a company like Grammarly (or most companies) to be cable of defending their IT infrastructure against professional attackers, and subtle backdooring Grammarly seems quite useful (for certain actors).

Btw. same for 1Password it's a supper juicy target, especially if it adds a crypto wallet (as they plan to do).

Also I'm pretty sure the usage of Grammarly for writing letters to customers is in conflict with more then just the GDPR (if they contain sensitive information, in more then one way).
This is why no one will help Ukraine, or any other country invaded by russia
Given Rusdia’s attack on Ukraine, I can easily imagine circumstances in which not acting on that reserved right might lead to the end of the world as we know it.
We've banned this account for egregiously breaking the site guidelines. You can't use HN to attack people.

If you don't want to be banned, you're welcome to email hn@ycombinator.com and give us reason to believe that you'll follow the rules in the future. Besides not attacking people, that would include not posting flamewar comments and not using HN for an agenda the way you have been.

In theory the laws of the country also apply for Muslim quarters.

But i will suggest that living openly as a gay person in said quarters is just not possible.

Those are the facts.
It's typical that troops are kept in the dark about mission details.
This pops up every so often. I've seen this upvoted on here one or twice before.
But we've always generated the html using other languages, still needed to have a pretty decent idea of how it works. I find it hard to believe that's all redundant now in quite the same way knowledge of assembly is when your a python dev for example.

Like take the open graph meta tags for example, for certain websites it'd be a big oversight to leave them out because you never bothered to learn what they were.

I don't know if all this makes for a decent interview. Just blows my mind that people deem it too low level to have to care about, but what do I know anymore, it's been a real long time since I made a web page.
Tor provides degraded access without government intervention.

In what respect? Hash power is well-distributed. Consensus (formal and informal) is working as expected.
I think the idea here isn't that there isn't a PyPI mirror in Africa. It is that not everyone has internet, so this person wants to have a tiny computer output a local WiFi network people can connect to and download pip packages. Imagine a small town or village with some power and a classroom, but no internet. A teacher could setup a network and have students connect to this device and download packages so they can complete some assignment/make the next Facebook.

Emergency Response: Help Ukrainian Families
The best method is to find a teacher or teachers who can provide you guidance and feedback. Short that, engage with experts (directly, or indirectly by finding their writings and talks) to find out what they think is an appropriate way to learn their areas of expertise (that doesn't involve them directly teaching you) and the background areas.

For instance, John Baez has this: https://math.ucr.edu/home/baez/books.html

I wouldn't just take his word for the recommended background reading, but take that set of resources and see what others have to say about them. Maybe they have alternative suggestions ("X is a good book, but has a poor set of exercises. Consider Y as an alternative or supplement. Z is a poorly written book because... consider ..."). Find multiple sources like this and build out a study list.

Go to things like MIT's OpenCourseWare which offer a more complete set of information on the college course curricula (versus the relatively incomplete set of information on most actual university course websites). Work through the courses in, generally, the same order the students would be expected to (as most later courses are founded on the earlier ones, jumping ahead isn't terribly easy).

Khan Academy (http://khanacademy.org) is commonly recommended here, I've never gone through it though so can't comment beyond that. They started off with just math material but have branched out since then. Mostly at the K-12 level and pushing into undergraduate level material.

Client-Side Web Development Book from University of Washington
It's not a very good question and it's not a very good answer either. Discussing the DOCTYPE without mentioning SGML or XML seems to be a bit weird to me.
I have an ITIL certification and I can honestly say it was the most useless 3 or 4 days (I don't even remember) of my entire professional life. Absolute rubbish, it was either completely made up / false, or such a basic level of common sense it makes you wonder how anyone got paid to write it down in the first place. The certification never expires but I haven't had it on my resume since I left that job.
Not true at all. The weakest members of society benefit from acting collectively, anonymity is a great thing if you're trying to hide your fortune. Peter Thiel has more to gain from anonymity than a MeToo member. There's a reason why your address and taxes paid are public information in Sweden.

Moving things into the public sphere, transparency, and protection by the law is what helps weak people. Anonymity is a tool of power, always has been.
How does one connect to the SWIFT network? Say, someone wants to start a company for providing some financial service like fund transfer across borders, then connecting to SWIFT will be very helpful. I was always fascinated by how all this works and what does it take to directly use the SWIFT network. Any insights on this will be really helpful.
Deploying them as ENV values and reading from env is the best practice as far as I know. But "deploying" part depends on your infrastructure.
It's a great watch for that reason and for laying out just how much of our political systems are pure theatre. Fantastic production to boot.
Food label translator: What ‘less processed’ and ‘multigrain’ mean
Actix-Web actually differentiates itself from most other Rust servers in that it runs multiple per-thread runtimes as opposed to a single work-stealing runtime. This probably doesn't matter to most, but if you really care about latency, it might be a factor to consider.
Not at all. Pivotal figures in civil rights, such as Du Bois [1] were anti-capitalist and much of contemporary social and legal theory emerged in the 1980s from post-modernism, a direct offshoot of Marxism. The general idea being that if you switch out “class struggle” for “racial struggle” then you get to borrow the rest of Marx’s theory about an oppressed proletariat and the need for revolution to overthrow an oppressive elite.

Americans like to use “marxist” as a slur and to use it out of context to attack political enemies but there is no shortage of actual Marxist who label themselves as such, e.g this professor, found randomly by my Googling for 30sec: https://blog.apaonline.org/2020/06/17/black-lives-matter-as-...

Most people have no idea that they’re regurgitating Marxist ideology when they repeat the phrases and arguments they hear, and of course would never identify as such - but there’s no sense in which making this observation is misinformation.

Personally I lament the fact that people across the political spectrum are digging ideological holes for themselves instead of focusing on how we can all help each other.

I have absolutely no expertise on this subject, but I think an effective approach would be to isolate and financially cripple the wealthy people who surround him.

Make them hurt finally; basically make their "wealth" irrelevant outside of Russia. Lock down all their assets and ban them from entering the country (UK/US/many EU states).

If a large group of powerful, very wealthy people suddenly find their luxury life threatened because of the small-man complex of one person, they will turn on that person - directly or more likely secretly. There must be enough people with enough money to collectively carry out a leadership replacement action. Add the "will of the people" who also don't want this war, and it should be easier to remove the source of the problem than to fight head on.

To clarify, cutting the entire country off from SWIFT would be a clumsy approach when targeted measures could be taken as I suspect above.
I mean, both have their glaring issues... but I think our modern system is worse. Independent news outlets didn't get a large readership but they did exist and people did express non-mainstream views in them - and while the main companies were definitely status quo aligned they attracted (and focused on attracting) actual journalists that occasionally broke stories that gave the editors headaches. In the absence of them being required to be the source of news (and due to competition from blogs running on a completely non-existent budget) they've focused more and more on advertiser revenue acquisition which really just only cares about the number of clicks you're getting.

I'd prefer neither system, and I don't think it's a binary choice - but if forced to choose between the two I'd probably go with the monolithic status-quo machine (even though I'm extremely progressive and they hated us).
> they need to start suffering

You just stated that the people of the whole country need to start suffering.
There already was period in our history when one politicial stated that we must all be destroyed as an ethnic group and our lands repopulated, and that was not good at all.
The distinction between store of value and speculation is rather fuzzy IMO.

Is putting money into gold for savings (because an actual savings bank account currently not only loses money in real but even in nominal terms) speculation as well?
I guess Russia is just an unprincipled undiplomatic, evil-doing, rogue country.

Thank God not all nations are like that!!
How does the equivalent work for PCs? Is the ecosystem just more mature, so that there aren't that many shiny new features? Do GPU vendors ship polyfills for older hardware?

My company currently runs Actix-web in production and is happy. Good tooling, fast, low resource costs, well-supported.
You can do it gradually (2-3 years). Trump already imposed 25% tariff on China goods, and nothing dramatic happened, and I bet many people switched to goods from other countries.
One example: I am into electric guitars, and almost all manufacturers moved from China because of tariff risks.
I may have posted this before, but here are pictures of the generator[1] and furnace[2].

Sweden and Finland probably don't feel the need to join Nato but the threat that was made is enough to put EU on edge. Scandinavia is much "closer" than Ukraine.

Severe indeed.
Would you say this if Trump was still POTUS? I seriously wonder if the US didn't support NATO actions whether NATO would remain whole.

Not the 80s but 60s. Nixon blamed the civil rights movement of the 60s on the soviets/communism. Nixon's ability to pin the civil rights movement on the soviets/communism made him extremely popular. People forget how popular Nixon was.

Calling it "Twitter's HTML Source" or "Twitter's HTML Source Code" would be reasonably clear. But just saying "Twitter's Source Code" does imply something other than that, probably non-public backend code, you're right

I assume they wouldn't put electronic outlets in solitary cells, so how did it work for phones? You'd get to use it for 3-5 hours before the battery runs out and then a guard swaps it for a charged one?
Well, no: this isn't the way we want it to work. It's how it has to work. Banks aren't just a necessary evil - any functioning financial system needs intermediaries. Furthermore, in all but a small handful of cases, those intermediaries need to be trusted and trust-worthy. Bitcoin, and all other protocols based on Satoshi's design[0], are limited to maintaining a secure ledger of "on-chain assets". Any interaction with the real world still requires a trusted intermediary to feed data back into that ledger; and once you do that the downsides of maintaining a distributed trustless global ledger for the virtual side of those assets becomes apparent.

VDI is still laggy crap from the user perspective that regularly adds +50ms or +100ms or whatever to everything you do on a computer and it's worse if you're using mobile internet in particular. VDI may gets CIOs and CFOs excited but it fails to actually impress the people using the computers. You can also lease physical hardware to get into a similar financial situation to a thin client + desktop situation. The only real interest that virtual desktops are being pushed as a concept is that it makes giant dollar signs light up in Nadella's eyes, but even he has to be wary of pushing his customers into the clutches of MacOS and ChromeOS and Linux.

You know what else happened the last few years? People started working from home, where a certain amount of downtime every month over a non-redundant internet connection is a matter of course. If anything VDI seemed more practical a few years ago when you could expect people to be in urban offices with redundant connections nearby some Microsoft datacentre.
I've seen "thin clients" called Amazon Alexas and Google Homes enter peoples home and having to phone home to the cloud is CRAP, you want to be able to use local processing as much as possible and failover to local processing as much as possible. While most things you want to do may require an internet connection, it turns out there's a whole lot of things you can do and want to do that really don't when the internet is down.

Sure VDI has its niches, like in security sensitive places where you want to keep data centralized on some servers, or in workplaces where maybe highly performant computers aren't a priority, but as somebody who LIKES computers the technology is an overcomplicated mess that is as fast as molasses when it's competing with iPadOS and Tab S7+ pushing latency down to a blistering 9ms. eSports gamers are busy replacing their glacially slow 240hz monitors with 390hz monitors. Every peripheral company is now selling low-latency wireless equipment that's as fast as wired. Apple Silicon improved QoS and used its efficiency cores to help keep its performance cores idle and ready to respond to user inputs as quickly as possible. Then you see Nadella going "you know what's a great idea? Phoning out to a datacentre and having a high-latency hardware running high-latency software do your processing whenever you double click anything".
I didn't really know why until I read scottlamb's comment, and yours.

I think this is the only plausible explanation - someone had a bad experience with a really crappy connector and it stuck.
Ha! That information is above my pay grade and happened before I started at Render, so I'm no help there.
Well, you don't need to imagine something like that in Mexico. Look what happened and still happens to Cuba.
Very cool!

>Switch between images, pronouns or secret identities at the push of a button

Sincere question: is this poking fun at people using pronouns, or do some people change their pronouns throughout the day?
That was more relevant 10 years ago. Nowadays the primary point of the html doctype declaration is to say 'I am HTML5'. I know this and I'm not even a frontend developer.
It’s a matter of the level of provocation. The first Iraq war was unambiguously a response to blatant Iraqi aggression. The second war is more arguable, depending on whether you see it as a continuation of the first. The invasion of Afghanistan was a response to its complicity in the 9/11 attacks. So in those cases there were clear direct assaults on the US or it’s allies it was responding to. There are examples, sure, but the US is rarely the side that starts the shooting.

It's not obvious (to me) that all the "thinking" is done in the cloud. I would've assumed it was all local to your machine.
Why would FB want to give internet to Africa? Maybe to interfere in the elections?
Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania are already in NATO. If Russia attacks them, the other NATO countries are obligated by treaty to defend them.

Sweden and Finland are not in NATO -- largely because they didn't want to be. They appear to be rapidly changing their minds about that.
In the short term, both. Longer term yes, many countries would migrate to other systems which mitigates the value of SWIFT. Fear of that happening is part of the reluctance to use it as a political weapon.

But a higher level language with a GC and good types would be more productive , I would suggest to also check the ecosystem not only the language, the access to documentation, and developers (if you need to build a team). From my experience big projects suffer not because of the language but because of bad architecture caused by inexperienced developers.

Does an e-mail provider accepting payment in bitcoin count?
I read it as a playful joke that isn't necessarily poking fun at anybody. Is changing pronouns really any weirder than assuming a secret identity?
Neat but inadequate. My domain passes all the checks, yet I already know that I have SPF and DMARC set, but so that spoofs get through. A proper tool should have flagged that.

I rather like easydmarc.com. They charge for analytic services but you can use their checker for free. They also have very easily digested guides and recommendations for setting up the various records.

Or that the Internet access they do have is often metered. A friend tells me 100MB costs about 1 USD where he is, which is not an insignificant amount of money. Really puts the whole 300 MB electron app thing in perspective; at any rate it's understandable why having a PyPI mirror in the classroom would be preferable to having each student download the packages over and over.
> who doesn't know write

In my experience it doesn't.

It helps people who are already reasonable good at writing English to write slightly better. Through only if their writing is limited to "business" English.

For e.g. papers it's in my experience a catastrophe.

There are also multiple categories of errors it can't cope with and does bad recommendation for. It's the kinda of errors I'm doing a lot. Maybe due to having some dyslexia, maybe because it's my second language, or maybe because my brain thinks slightly different (not joking; Luckily it's just different, not worse.).
I believe it's just using those as example content to scroll through at the press of a button, but I'm now curious as well.
building codes make a "luxury" apartment and an "affordable" apartment approximately the same. the main difference is how much rent can be charged.
