The EU created a proposal "EU to mandate public salary information for all job postings [pdf]" https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30440211 so one day it may be required.
Ha! Thanks! Good to hear from the other side.

I believe that in their Cease and Desist Letter they did write about 5 or 6 specific things that they believed were not fair, and they wanted to have changed. (That letter was a response to the previous version of this comparison article.)

Something like:

"In the article, you say that our product is slow and yours is fast, but it's not fair as your product displays only 50 cells in its viewport and our product 100 cells."

(... and 4 or 5 other bullet points commenting on things that they did not agree with)

This is the first time I have ever received such a letter and at first I thought it was some kind of joke. And perhaps in a way it is.

For a moment I did think like you: I am going to make this comparison page even worse for them by adding disclaimers to the article like: "HoT requested us to modify this example so that their product is a little less slow..."

But I never did and I am glad I did not. But I am happy that you appreciate this marketing effort ;-)
Thanks! We are building integrations based on community requests, we'll combine that into a detailed roadmap. Support JS, Java and python is WIP

P.S. If you love DevOps culture and you have experience in Terraform, Puppet, Vault or similar technologies, knows Go code or is ready to get down and dirty with Go and would love to work in a team that consists of self-starters who like to get things done, write their own tools to improve their productivity etc, give me a separate ping on my email address (click on my profile).
FWIW, I know of a group of language learners who have setup one of these rooms with the rule that conversations only take place in the foreign language. So far, it has been very effective in giving learners a place to practice and hone their language skills.

The push is that someone imagined it, and therefore it must be. It really is as simple as that. It's a child's imagination.
I guess we differ on whether or not it is interesting. I primarily think it is horrifying, perhaps even to the point of culpability in (part of) the problem.
Documentation should be free if you want people to use your platform in a coherent way. MDN has always been refreshing and to the point as compared to other sites.
Is politics really off topic for HN? (UPDATE: just looked in guidelines. And yeah, i agree that my submission is off topic).

Could it be the reason why this submission is taken down completely from actively discussed topic page?
An interesting, older paper that explores how to bridge the "ninja gap" between naive code and hand-optimized code is Can Traditional Programming Bridge the Ninja Performance Gap for Parallel Computing Applications? <https://web.eecs.umich.edu/~msmelyan/papers/isca-2012-paper....>.

They reduce the ninja gap for a range of benchmarks from 24x to 1.3x by relying on "smart" compilers and using only basic program transformations---no intrinsics!
A few years ago Google, Microsoft, Apple, etc. sent out a press release saying they were abandoning their own documentation efforts and were going to support MDN going forward, which they now considered to be the official documentation of the web.

The servers certainly should be free. AWS, google cloud, Azure should be hosting MDN for free as part of their commitment they laid forth to support MDN.
Ask HN: How did you stabilize your team/company?
My current team is currently very unstable. We have incidents every 2-3 days, and we're constantly firefighting. I don't want to bore you with the specifics of our current situation. Instead I'm curious to hear some stories how you managed to fix your team and what problems you were able to solve.

For example, maybe someone actually tried to put up a "Days since last incident" sign and that somehow worked? Or you did something that goes against typical advice that you find when you google this topic?

Curious to hear your stories for some inspiration
First I'm hearing of Graphy... it's just my lucky after launching https://PlotPanel.com yesterday! My salary throughout was £0!
You said it yourself. When you don't need feedback that their submission was in progress or completed successfully.

To be fair, on the second point, on an error, you can not return a 204, and take them somewhere telling them what went wrong.
How is something called "MIT Technology Review" not MIT?

This is how they describe themselves:

> Founded at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1899, MIT Technology Review is a world-renowned, independent media company whose insight, analysis, reviews, interviews and live events explain the newest technologies and their commercial, social and political impacts.

Take a look at their website: https://www.technologyreview.com/supertopic/about/

The name "MIT" is literally all over the place. If it wasn't actually MIT, I'd expect MIT to sue these "Technology Review" people.

My daughter loved playing around in here, especially multiplayer.

There's really not all that much to do, but she liked knowing that she could walk around and goof around with me.
Climate change is hitting the planet faster than scientists originally thought
<form method="get" action="foo.php">
<select name="item" mutiple>
<option>1</option>
<option>2</option>
<option>3</option>
</select>
<button>go</button>
</form>

If you select option 1 and option 3 it will submit to foo.php?item[]=1&item[]=3

So in general <form method="get"> will append a query string to the action url composed of the form field values. But it is not possible to specify an url template to control the exact structure of the url. If you want that you have to implement a server side redirect.

One thing I did not know until recently myself: form submit buttons can specify their own formaction and formmethod attributes that override that ones specified by the form. So you can have multiple buttons inside on form the submit to different locations.
Minecraft was a better game under the original developer. Just recently saw that I can buy Minecraft coins at a tank stop. A really sad development of an awesome game which had an insurmountable amount of free content. Don't know what I expected with the acquisition though.

I don't think I will migrate my account, currently in the process of migrating away from Windows for good.

BharatPe Co-Founder accuses Sequoia of lapses in corporate governance
Porter (YC S20) | Full Time | Full-Stack Engineer | Remote or NYC | https://porter.run

Hey HN, I'm Alexander, co-founder of Porter. We're building Heroku in your own cloud. We let users link up their own AWS/GCP, point to the code they want to run, and then put the rest of the hosting process on autopilot (CI/CD, SSL, autoscaling, zero downtime deploys, infra monitoring, etc).

We're hiring engineers that are passionate about building tools for developers. If you have some experience with either Typescript or Go, or you're very interested in this space, we'd love to talk with you. As we're a fast-growing seed-stage startup, you should be comfortable with regularly shifting priorities and iterating at a very high (daily) velocity.

Some of the technical challenges we face:

* Abstracting Kubernetes - any PaaS spans a variety of use cases, so building a consistent and useful layer of abstraction requires constant awareness of the needs of many user profiles.

* Cloud Agnosticism - one of Porter's main benefits is that you get the same interface for managing services regardless of where you host. Our job is to reduce multi-cloud infrastructure complexity to a unified interface.

* Auto-Generated Frontend - each of our app/add-on templates uses a form.yaml file that programmatically generates a settings UI on the dashboard using a library of our own input primitives. Designing, expanding, and testing the functionality of these templates is non-trivial.

If this interests you, please apply by sending an email to jobs [at] porter [dot] run or applying through https://www.workatastartup.com/jobs/43716.
Nvidia confirms: malware group Lapsus$ has personal company data
Reminds me of some SANs I used to support. In order to wipe it clean (with several warnings), you had to type "deleteallmydatanow" in a box and submit. We had more than one support call on "I did this thing and now all my data is gone."
The world spent trillions of dollars fighting this pandemic, and is still hemorrhaging cash all over the planet. A few more blood tests for such an important claim would have been very much worth it. Not saying test all 100k, but 48? I guess that's statistically significant, but it seems like a hard task to find a cohort of 48 people that can statistically represent all the US health care workers.
I remember walking away from the 2009 film 'Surrogates' (starring Bruce Willis) and being _incredibly_ disturbed at the idea that he/his wife hadn't actually seen/heard/felt/etc. each other (or anyone) in years. I'm not against VR as a respite, but this and Facebook's “metaverse” push makes me want to spend LESS time with my devices, not more.
"If God had built mountains in eastern Ukraine, then the great expanse of flatland that is the European Plain would not have been such inviting territory for the invaders who have attacked Russia from there repeatedly through history. As things stand, Putin, like Russian leaders before him, likely feels he has no choice but to at least try to control the flatlands to Russia’s west. So it is with landscapes around the world—their physical features imprison political leaders, constraining their choices and room for maneuver. These rules of geography are especially clear in Russia, where power is hard to defend, and where for centuries leaders have compensated by pushing outward." [1]

I don't think the cause is so much pure historical reasons, but current defense worries.

There was another talk explaining the russian perspective in 2015 by John J. Mearsheimer from the University of Chicago [2]

GNU Taler doesn't calculate or automatically pays the tax, it's just to prevent tax fraud so that authorities can check if the paid taxes correlate with the income.
I was always under the impression that Docker had support for having different architectures under the same tag, and that the client would pull the image that matches the client's architecture, ala most package managers. Is that not the case?
Humans are not naturally herbivores. This is true. We're also not naturally vaccinated. We also don't naturally wipe our ass with toilet paper and wash our hands with soap and clean water.

What we are and what we should be are two very different things.

We have decade-long studies showing that a plant-based diet is at least as healthy if not healthier than typical omnivorous diets.

This makes killing billions of sentient creatures in monstruous factory-farming conditions with constant suffering all the more morally reprehensible.

We're not torturing them because we need to. We're torturing them because they taste nice.
Oh I did as well, but junior developers, non-native English speakers, and under-represented engineers may have a harder time understanding the sarcasm or the believe the risk-of-ruin if they are misunderstanding the message is too high.

Many of us are very privileged with the tech job market, that isn’t the case for everyone.
The milestones they've been using are bullshit - trivial and/or half-baked feature releases (e.g. stop sign and traffic light recognition) that are not reflective of the real challenges in shipping vision-only L5 autonomy. They already recognize half upfront, which is nuts.
>The question was whether the lack of a feature that can be disabled is a feature, which it isn't.

It is, though, and examples have been provided of VERY successful platforms built upon this negative space.

Consider the lack of a feature as a feature itself; it lowers the amount of cognitive brainpower required to use the system, and that is VERY valuable.
This is honestly pretty freaking awesome. Dairy is one of those ethical conundrums for me. I know how bad Dairy farms are for cows but there aren't any ways to get ethically raised milk products where I live. I've got cruelty free eggs in abundance, but no milk or cream. A cow is just too much for most small farms and even then the process of keeping a heifer pregnant and selling the calf for veil or butchering is too much.

However, seeing it in 1 quart cartons makes me wonder how insanely expensive this is going to be at first.
Ukrainian pilots are in Poland right now taking delivery of fighter jets. That's amazingly fast.

I think the key is that the Ukraine is a democracy. Quite recently it had a president backed by oligarchs, voted that one out, counted the votes fairly, and he left office (not without some pushing and shoving, but he left). That makes this like Hitler's attack on the Czech, not like shooting down a plane or behaving atrociously in Yemen.
Just a pet peeve: Sticky headers or footers that overlay scrolled content are bad, because they interfere with jumping to page search results and anchors, as browsers do not take into account that the target may be hidden by an overlaid element.

=> If you use sticky headers/footers, lay out the other content so that it isn’t overlaid by those headers/footers.
Another difficulty of the taxable feature is that for some retailers their sales tax changes all the time. A simple example is a food truck, sales tax rates can change daily depending on where the truck happens to be parked.
