There's going to be a ton of due diligence on all these. Eventually it will be determined that Russia didn't intend to do it. It was some newb who shouldn't have shot. Won't matter. Eventually Article 5 will be triggered by Russia. That's the problem about the fog of war.
It's pretty easy to tell when someone is genuinely curious/unknowledgeable/whatever vs. when they're just hunting for something they can complain about (or something they can use to fire you, if that's the power dynamic). Another comment here brings up a waiting tables analogy which I think is really great. Asking for 3 things at once (parallel) is much different than asking for 3 things separately (serial).

And truthfully, any question that shows you've actually looked for whatever you need helps 99% of the time.

Trump's commentary on the violence against the press: https://www.cnn.com/2020/09/19/media/trump-velshi-msnbc-shot...

I agree that local police assaulting journalists is awful, they should be fired and prosecuted. And I'm aware that Trump made some dumb ass comments praising that shit, but it doesn't constitute a war on the press. You're talking about some isolated disparate instances perpetrated by unrelated local police departments during a summer of protests and riots. That isn't an act of the executive branch of the federal government. The US doesn't have a strong presidential system like say for example France. The us president has virtually 0 control over any individual police departments other than threatening to yank some drug war funding.

There do exist levers the executive branch could pull to attack the press, e.g. via the FCC or by having the DOJ prosecute sources. The Trump admin didn't do those things despite all of his bluster. He basically ended the policy of aggressively prosecuting leakers and spent all day engaging with the media. Sure he's a shit bag who did crimes, but the war on the press stuff is overblown.

No, women are allowed to leave Ukraine because, for the most part, they are responsible for raising the next generation of Ukrainians. The number one long-term job of any society is ultimately to raise the next generation. If you don't do that, the society doesn't exist in one or two generations' time.

What you consider misandry is in fact a feminist issue. Women often don't choose a life of childcare; it's something that can be forced upon them, because if they don't do it, no-one else will. Men get to choose whether to get involved. If the share of childcare was more equal, then there wouldn't be a reason to restrict leaving the country on a gendered basis.
That's a truck-load of bullshit. Texas Gov. Abbot is pushing an anti-LGBTQ+ agenda in the open. He and his pals are flat-out pushing anti-trans agendas that accuse parents of children seeking gender-affirming treatment of child abuse.

The Texas right-leaning lege just got through passing a bill that was designed to be hard to assail in the courts that hands out money for turning in anyone who assist someone in seeking an abortion, robbing people of their rights over their own bodily autonomy.

Florida gov't is trying to pass bills that prohibit talking about gender orientation and identity, racism, and equality in the workplace and classroom.

This isn't a "non-issue". This isn't "settled". We're still fighting for our rights and freedoms, and those of our children. I'll be damned if I'm gonna let some greedy nutjob politician deny my children (or anyone's children) the right to be who they are or want to be.

If they don't like gender transitioning, then they shouldn't transition, but don't tell me or mine that they can't!
No reasonable person would think that, so I'm curious what your point is.

The ship (supposedly) entered a Ukrainian port on the 20th of February. So any resupplying would have been done already. It's possible that they expected Ukraine to use it to smuggle something out of the country, but I find it hard to imagine what that could be.

I might have agreed with you a few years ago but these days I see Spotify's perspective more clearly. Today I see code as a liability. Like the parts in my car it is eventually going to break in some strange way and cause me a headache. The only real solution is to never drive a car, but that's almost impossible if you want to get around. Same with code, it's a vehicle that gets a business to a destination, which is nice: bit it can also be quite expensive when things go wrong. Efficient engineering teams balance this inherent risk against the needs of the business.

Exactly. If the author published this in 2008 he would be saying "the iPhone is just a rehash of Blackberry but with a touch screen." If he published it in 2004 he would say, "the Blackberry is just a rehash of Palm but with a tiny keyboard." I don't know what came before Palm but you get the picture: innovation is clearly a cumulative process.

Besides, the value of unifying recent (or even ancient) technologies in a new way should not be overlooked.

Re founders there is a tension: They often want to both maintain control (i.e. equity) and realize some $$ from building the company. A liquidity event of some sort is often seen as the best way to do this, especially if they've been lean on salary for a decade at that point, which is often the case.
So your saying Democrats are not in favor of censorship? Are we just going to pretend this is a one sided issue and they were not guilty in trying to cover up the lab leak theory or going after journalists who try to write stories about hunter bidens laptop?

I don't see how pointing how both parties are guilty of engaging in censorship is wrong. I am advocating for the position that censorship is a tool used unfairly by both parties when they are given the chance, I don't like conservatives or republicans either for how they treated Edward Snowden and Juliane Assange.

Russia will not have any states to be aggressive against once the rest of Europe joins NATO.

Which is why I think concerns about their aggression in the future are just propaganda. Russia can barely bully the poorest country in Europe. It definitively can't fight NATO.
My mother had an energy bill that was 3x higher than before. This shit is funny when you're in the valley and you have 6000 in pocket money to burn on stuff, but in Europe that means some peoples monthly rental expenses doubled.

It's actually an existential threat for a lot of people. The German leadership just like the USA is so far detached from the normal population that they won't care, and the normal population in Germany isn't like in the middle east, so they will likely take it with some complaints.

But since you can't easily get loans like in the US in Germany I wonder what that will mean for people that can no longer afford their bills though. I've seen people being taken to jail in Germany for unpaid 20 Euro bills or not paying public transit.
I do agree that perhaps email clients are a good SPA candidante, but at the same time most of that type of interaction can be done with a sprinkle of JS.

Because of a few simple interactions that are better without a page reload, people write the ENTIRE application on the frontend, with everything duplicated (modeling, validation, routing, error handling, etc).
I think programming attracts a certain type of perfectionist and controlling personality that has trouble admitting that nothing is ever going to be perfect. It’s basically narcissism where the only source of truth is whatever this person says it is, and they judge other people for not doing things the same way they would.

In reality no documentation is ever complete and all code has major flaws. Using that to tear down other people and raise yourself up is counter productive to everyone.

"Fake news" isn't a metaphor, it's a thought-terminating cliché. It literally literally means the news is a sham, not genuine.

Things have hidden complexity. Whether it's the actual object or how it relates to existing systems it's put in, or surprising economics, or simply complex supply chains. A lot of the time when you aren't seeing progress (e.g. 'its the future, so where are my jetpacks?' memes), it turns out that doing a thing in a worthwhile or economically feasible way is actually really hard.

From the outside, it might look like making personal jetpacks for everyone is easier than transcribing youtube videos. After all there are videos of people using jetpack-like things going back many decades! Surely if it almost worked then, it must work now. That's how technology progresses, right?

I'm convinced that most people making points like this think tech is like a video game, and all you have to do is put resource points into it.

And don't even get started on all the innovations that they probably just aren't paying attention to. As if it's a total coincidence that more and more cancers are getting survivable over time.

It's also a sign we are through the looking glass and into a non-Geneva world again, because this is even uglier than Saddam's human shield, and comparable to the (ultimately unprovable but plausible) allegation that the British allowed the RMS Lusitania to remain at risk of U-boat attack in order to drag the USA into WW1.

In 2012 I realized there was something wrong with my brain, the way I was acting and living wasn't normal. 6 months later I sat down with my wife and we tried to make an appointment with a psychiatrist. It never happened because I was arrested due to my abnormal behaviour and spent the subsequent 8 years in jail. That was as bad as realizing that the 20 years before that had been lived vastly suboptimally.

Hi, not sure if this is question is better as a PM. I’m working on a project in this space and am curious what you find low value add about most current offerings?

My project focuses on the actual deployment of the model artifact and transformation of that artifact into a callable API.

Do you find most offerings low value add because you don’t want to deal with created containers (docker, etc.) (that’s my experience of most offerings in this space)? Is it because you prefer to do that work yourself? Some other reason?

This is likely a combination a question of Money Transfer/Transmitter License & compliance, but this is not my area of expertise. A provider like Wise is licensed in the countries where it accepts customers. In this case, Wise is licensed in the US but not in Chile: https://wise.com/help/articles/2932693/how-is-wise-regulated...

As it's a costly and complicated endeavour, they must prioritise the markets they operate in and must have made the business decision not to be licensed in Chile as of now.

Luckily, Monito always try to find local companies filling the gap of big players, and Global66 is an interesting alternative from Chile: https://www.monito.com/send-money/chile/united-states/clp/us...

Moneygram is likely limited in accepting US residents with their US site for similar reasons.

> Should the global community have targeted all Americans for the actions of the Bush Presidency invading Iraq under false pretenses?

This is not realistic due to the fact that the US is at least an order of magnitude more powerful than Russia, both economically and militarily. We also made it look less sketchy by bribing/begging Britain (and others) to join the Iraq invasion and invoking Article 5 for Afghanistan. Sanctions against the US were not tenable.

This seems kinda unethical. This will just result in some developers at Discord spending time creating a solution to detect such abuse, or everyone will just lose unlimited message history. Of course, anyone offering a service with storage like this should expect this to happen eventually, but trying to take advantage of it in a way that wasn't intended doesn't sit right with me. I sorta understand making some proof of concept of this, but why make official "Disbox" accounts here on HN and GitHub for your service that will surely get blocked soon?

Your website even says "As free as it gets. No ads, no subscriptions, and no fees. All of our features are free to use, forever.". It seems disingenuous to market this as some kind of "service" that will be around forever.
That list of instances is randomly ordered, it isn't like biggest first or anything.

I don't really see how the fact that there is someone who hosts videos using personal funds proves that it isn't possible for a professional company to host videos using the same company.

And yet those early employees who joined before they were profitable took a risk, and likely below-market rates, and got equity. Because that’s one proven strategy a startup can use to try to find people who can get them to not-a-startup.

If you look at the rapid change in some points of view in the West, it shows how widespread Russian propaganda is/was.

When the invasion was launched, there was a huge pro-Putin contingent in the US who said it was justified. You can also look historically at how well it worked in Russia's other wars of aggression over the past decade. The fact that it was not able to overcome the images coming out of Ukraine is kinda irrelevant.
What kinds of non-public research tools do PIs have access to?
I don't agree fully, I feel operating on conviction & purpose & intelligence has a place, is how many of the best things get built.

But absolutely some deep questions about who you are building for are essential. There was a good post yesterday[1] ostensibly about open source, & closed source, but the conclusion was really about assessing not just purpose but audience.

ICANN won't do it. But an intermediary resolver, such as Quad9, can choose to drop requests it deems unsuitable. They do that all the time with domains connected to malware.

Thank you for this. This is why I tend to work alone. There has been a slow, steady cultivation of the perpetually helpless, antagonistic weiner personality over the last 10 years that is an absolute teeth grind.

That said, it's good to learn how to differentiate between people who are being genuine and just need guidance/attention and someone who's a wet noodle. It's easy to accidentally discourage the former mischaracterizing them as the latter.

If they tried to join NATO, absolutely. Russia has tremendous national interest in not allowing a hostile military alliance to absorb states on its border.
So looking at the numbers, it seems that Asians are over-represented across most tech companies, and most/all other groups are underrepresented (https://www.informationisbeautiful.net/visualizations/divers...).

I'm curious, though, why that would make you think that racial discrimination is happening? It could just as easily mean that racial discrimination is not happening and that Asian candidates are equally over-represented in the underlying qualifications (e.g. university degrees, prior experience -- both of which are indeed the case).

Also, at a level removed from tech, what criteria do you use to determine whether some system which does not equally represent the general population is discriminatory or not? It seems like the numbers alone here aren't sufficient, but I reckon you've probably given this a lot of thought, so I'd love to hear your mental model there.
> The only thing that could be done, in principle, by ICANN and EU/US service providers is to block out all content coming in or out of Russia

I don't think this is true. The root DNS servers ICANN runs could stop handling requests for anything on the .ru/.su Russian TLDs. Though Russia runs the .ru servers internally, from ripn.net, there's still reliance on the root servers to point there. This would break Russian internal access to their own services.

If you run `dig +trace government.ru` you can see your first query is to the various "*.root-servers.net" name servers. When I did this my queries went like this:

A.ROOT-SERVERS.NET -> B.DNS.RIPN.NET -> NS2.GOV.RU

That first step, contacting the centralized root servers, is where ICANN could have killed .ru domain lookups. (also my knowledge of DNS is shaky, so someone correct me if I'm wrong)
I guess you're really notdoingthework. Someone needs to be assigning you work, and she never presented it as if she just came up with a project and threw it at another co-worker. If it wasn't her project, where did the documentation come from, and group discussion?
