I'm curious what you think the value of this comment is.

You aren't trying to convince the person you responded to.

The rest of us in the "I really liked DDG but am upset by this decision" bucket aren't the targets of this either.

Even other users who are less opinionated on this move inherently want DDG to care about them as users!

Do you think there is some squad of super pro-corporation folks your point is selling to? "Ah yes, well, if it helps DDG make a buck, it doesn't matter how I the user feel..."
How to be mediocre and be happy with yourself (2016)
I have a lot of tips, probably share some similarities with other people here:

1. Drink a lot of water. Like, a lot. I aim for 1 gallon of water per day.

2. Don't drink calories. Water and La Croix are your friends

3. Intermittent fast. I don't eat from 8pm to noon the next day. It's easier than it sounds. After a week or two, your body will get used to it.

4. Your first meal after breaking your fast should be very filling but low calorie. I eat 3 eggs, 2 veggies (typically tomato + jalapeno/bell pepper), 1 avocado, a 100-calorie yogurt, and a protein shake. This will fill you up and its only around 500-600 calories.

5. On that note, focus on high-protein meals. These fill you up quickly and you stay full for longer.

6. Hot sauce is the secret. Hot sauce is low calorie (generally 0) and varies flavor substantially. Your budget for new hot sauces should be unlimited.

7. Limit eating out as much as possible. Not because you can't eat healthy while eating out, but you're introducing more room for error. Plus, restaurants vastly underestimate the amount of calories in their food.

8. Go for an afternoon walk. It's good for you mentally and physically.

9. Exercise is great for a lot of reasons. Of course it makes you feel great, but it also motivates you to eat healthy because you won't want to "waste" the hour you spent at the gym by eating unhealthy. It will not directly lead to weight loss, but burning 500 calories per day in a work out sure makes it easier.

10. Weight yourself every week. If you aren't making progress, diet harder. Weight loss is not a secret. You can be methodical about it.

11. If you need to snack throughout the day (which is normal), try to eat relatively healthy items. Beef jerky, protein bars, etc. Also, rice cakes. These fill you up but aren't high calorie. I like the Quaker cheddar ones.

12. Perhaps most importantly, try to stay busy throughout the day. When I'm not working or doing something is when I eat the most.
My interest in web3 + art is from finding new livable income sources for artists generally. Less about big money speculation, more about getting more artists supported such that they don’t need a day job or purely commercial art pursuits (as opposed to “fine art”). I understand the current state of crypto isn’t near offering this outside of hyped speculative investments

I’m also not interested in ideas on a shelf that could do this better in an alternate reality but aren’t active

I also recognize there are uphill battles conceptually for both adopters and builders, such as ownership models where access is not exclusive (which is also not without precedence outside crypto)

Not interested in discussing these distractions: the perceived quality of current art, what types of art are more deserving of their artists having a livable income off, ideas on a shelf for solving this at scale in an alternate reality, scam activity, or pretending proof of work chains are state of the art
I get what you are trying to bring up as an argument, but even Firefox doesn't argue this way. See their answers on issues related to these kind of APIs.
After a long "training set", I have learned that when I see a headline that ends with a question mark, don't bother to read the article; the answer to the question is nearly always "No". E.g.,

"Will Expert Systems AI Replace Nearly All Knowledge Workers?"

No, they didn't. And I am fully confident they won't.

So, due to the question mark, just stop reading. Then I apply this training to

"Will Transformers Take over Artificial Intelligence?"
For carbon capture, I don't think its the case that equivalent technology exists today. On our current trajectory the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere is going to keep going up for the next 10-20 years, regardless of how fast renewable energy is deployed. And to be in the best position to stop and reverse CO2 levels we need to start developing carbon capture today, for it to be ready to deploy at scale in a decade or two.

I get the risk of giving people permission not to change behavior, but I don't think we actually see that happening today. Tesla sells every car it produces, and more and more governments and companies are making meaningful climate commitments and starting to follow through on them.

To address climate change we need all hands on deck, and that means exploring every possible approach to the problem. We can walk and chew gum at the same time, and don't need to write off technologies when they are in their infancy.

If you don't know Russian/know how to use a translator, maybe there are other people more equipped to be doing the searching than you?

Wait for journalists and others to dig through the data and read the articles when they come out instead.
To me that has to do with search results being tuned for relevancy, not due the the perceived quality of the information.
The keyword is overall. One wouldn’t typically pick a programming language purely based on how well it handles references.

Generally Rust does memory safety better than C++, that’s painfully clear as soon as one uses the language and compares it with what happens in a C++ project with average developers. But memory safety is just one dimension of evaluation.

Their tech is great and I enjoyed the design of their site, but I'm wondering if they align with the "move fast and break things" motto as I would never board a plane that was designed under that premise (even less, one that travels at Mach 5).

I read their "Company Tenets" [1] and, unfortunately, that seems to be the case as suggested by "Drive to Test Quickly" and also "Hardware Richness: To enable calculated risk" ... WTF!?

Also, what in the world is going on with their "Parables". Then a list of places to visit in Atlanta, then a list of dogs along with their positions within the company. Whew ...

This is a dump from Republic of Bashkortostan [1], a Russian republic. This initially confused me because I though of the republics as used in Soviet Union.

Another interesting tidbit from Russian internet. Municipal services in Moscow are suggesting that folks move over to Russian browsers [2, in russian]. Some claim it's because Roskomnadzor is planning to sniff all traffic, even SSL. Some are saying it's because CAs are revoking Russian keys.

Anyone that bothers to download this should expect that there is some form of malware included in the file.

Did you read the article? All the proposal does is allow the javascript engine to accept typescript-style syntax, while erasing all the annotations at runtime. From the browser's point of view, it would essentially treat the type annotations and type declarations as comments. This combined with native Ecmascript modules means you could theoretically develop a typescript application with no bundler or other build tools. You'd be able able to use typescript autocomplete and linting in your editor, and just serve the files to your browser with a static http server. Some newer bundlers like Vite and esbuild greatly reduce the amount of configuration required to set up a typescript project, but being about to develop a project with nothing but an editor and a browser would be a huge win for small projects.

Since the proposal doesn't care about the semantics of the type annotations, it doesn't even necessitate typescript. It would work just as well with Flow typing or even a completely new type checker.
> And it's just, OK now for us to be releasing stolen files from foreign governments ? We are not at war with Russia (yet).

Who are "us" in this context? This was released by individuals, not a entity acting for a foreign governments. Leaks happen when your security is poor. For all we know, this hack could have been done by a Ukrainian individual, who very much is at war with Russia now, would that make you feel better?
Comma lets you run all Nix packages (more than 80000) quickly "without installation". It is basically a wrapper around `nix run` though. Honestly, `nix run` and `nix shell` help you become adventurous removing your fear of breaking things.

> That's awful but is pretty much confirming my experience. At the revenue level they have, you'd assume they could do better, but presumably having a monopoly means they don't have to care

FasTrak is a monopoly operated by a private, for-profit firm, accountable to it's owners. As long as complaints don't get to the body that oversees them and which is politically accountable to the public, they aren't going to try to do better, because that has a cost and reduces profits.

The label "disinformation", like "terrorism" often depends on your individual context. "War propaganda" is a pretty accurate descriptor for that silly story. War propaganda isn't always meant strictly to misinform. Consider the "Eating carrots is good for your eyesight" trope produced by UK propaganda during WWII. One of it's goals was to cover up the success of radar in night conditions, but it also had the goal of encouraging citizens to grow more carrots in their victory gardens. Hilariously, retrospectively it can't even be called disinformation anymore because carrots DO contain a compound that is necessary for your eyes to operate in a healthy manner
My weight fluctuates a lot ( especially if I find myself consuming more alcohol) but I have a system that’s always worked for me when I want to drop weight
1. Only black coffee for breakfast. Maybe a banana or granola bar if you really need it but try to avoid any calories before noon
2. Light lunch (~400cal). Think something like peanut butter and jelly or a soylent.
3. Pretty much whatever you want for dinner.
4. Avoid any calories after 8pm.

Counting calories helps a lot at first just to get an understanding of how much you can eat each day. Myfitnesspal works well.

Limiting calorie consumption to an 8 hr window made a huge difference for me. If you get hungry outside that window try decaf coffee, tea, water, or anything else with no calories.
90s era cars aren’t close to meeting current requirements. The new requirements may in fact explain all of the price increases. I imagine there would be a market for a “new 2005” civic at say 7k$, because one exists for the old ones at 2k.

Ask HN: What are founding engineers getting paid?
Obviously this will very wildly, but it seems like something has changed in this landscape over the last 5-10 years. It used to be common knowledge that founders/founding engineers would take a measly salary in exchange for significant equity.

But some recent anecdata has me questioning if this is true anymore (seeing $200k+ salary plus equity in some cases).

So, anybody have any insight? What's the market like for experienced founding/early engineers right now?
Having used both a lot, I disagree that JS/ES6 is a nicer language. ES6 has a couple unique cool features, but also a decent amount of baggage from older JS.

I‘m not saying I‘m blindly following either sides‘ narrative, but to me there is a clear trustworthyness hierarchy between the narrative of a society where I can still freely read, discuss and criticize these obvious pieces of misinformation (while they stay on the record!) and a society that changes its own narrative every other day and where just mentioning the word „war“ can lock me up in jail for 15 years by now.

Truth gets you about 1% of the way towards returning "good information". What are the ideal search results for "orange"?
‘A pyramid scheme is a fraudulent system of making money based on recruiting an ever-increasing number of "investors." The initial promoters recruit investors, who in turn recruit more investors, and so on. The scheme is called a "pyramid" because at each level, the number of investors increases. The small group of initial promotors at the top require a large base of later investors to support the scheme by providing profits to the earlier investors.’

Come on, many crypto projects don’t seem like this in any sense?
Well, if we let our "leaders" run amok with the powers of warfare I'd expect some serious repercussions to the citizenry. "I didn't vote for him" won't get us much sympathy with our brothers and sisters elsewhere if our government is out killing people en masse.

Thinking inflation is positively correlated with profits is like getting punched in face is positively correlated with increased healing. Or Earth quakes are good for economy because they create more economic activity.

> Is that a normal occurrence in periods of high inflation?

Yes, even during stagflation. Inflation means the price of some things rise really fast, and profits grow together, while other things rise very slowly, profits go negative and the companies stop being measured on that indicator.

Besides, as a rule, inflation pushes earning into the things that are renegotiated often. That is most of the companies prices (they are renegotiated every time you go in a store), and almost none of the workers salaries.
C++ and Rust are very deep multi-paradigm languages, with many features that try to cover a lot of domains - that’s why they are complicated. Sure, C++ has the decades of backwards compatibility and weaker memory safety, but in the end it’s clear they belong to the same difficulty class, even if C++ is likely harder to learn.
"Open"AI, but no idea how they're doing.
Hey, glad to hear it!

You're actually not the first person who's asked for a Rust SDK. This is something that is already in our plans for the near future.

In the meantime, all of Kable can be accessed via HTTPS REST endpoints. I wouldn't recommend using Kable for authentication over REST due to the potential latency issues it could cause for your API. But all of our functionality around pricing, metering, billing, and invoicing can be accessed directly, even without a Rust library.

Check out our documentation for a closer look at the REST API. Would be happy to chat some more over email to help you get started until our Rust library is available.

I think the “planet-killing scam” is very HN-sphere thinking. Most people have no idea. Most non-technical artists I interact with seem very excited about NFTs, often asking me to help them create their own (unfortunately I’m not interested).

And what about when ETH2 goes live in some months and the main NFT chain moves to proof-of-stake? The “planet-killing” problem is already solved, that tech is going live this year. Seems like a fairly fragile criticism.
Cases like RT are clear cut to you. Others have other opinions. I think that the Russian claims that Ukraine is harboring neo-nazis are significantly bunk and are poor excuse for the invasion, but I also think you can't deny that the Azov Brigade exists, and I want to hear the Russian take on that even if I think it's half lies.
They could just have you report odometer readings when you register it annually. We could even see a smog style car safety inspection to ensure that the numbers match up every few years. If all else fails an odometer reading when selling and the seller owes the taxes on those miles. No system is fool proof, but that would be a lot easier and cheaper than trying to somehow record every mile driven.

> That actually means gas prices haven't gone up, or not by much. In the 20 years from 2001 to today, inflation roughly doubled everything

"Inflation" is a nebulous word, if you're referring to CPI, isn't oil price (via transportation, fertilizer costs) a major contributor to that increasing?

I'd expect a historic fuel price chart corrected for CPI to be roughly a horizontal line, because fuel prices majorly contribute to it.

Carieer path advice: .NET vs. iOS
presuming that you have on the table two offers: one for fullstack .net (C# + angular, react or blazor) and one for ios developer.
the interesting part is that both are almost identical (salary, office, benefits etc.)

an advice will be very welcome - what will you choose and why?

p.s. my background is mostly backend in golang (so the technology switch should be done anyway). and yes - I googled it but decided to ask here so that search engines bubble filters can be excluded..

p.s.s. I'm fine with both ones (maybe a little more inclined to choose ios). But interested also in your opinion about eventual perspective (looking into the future) related to chosen path.
I mean I don't think that forgetting our principles and indiscriminately screwing with everything inside Russia's borders because it's all fair game is the way to go either. So for example in this case if we want to damage the censorship agency we ideally remove PII of anyone who is innocent within the leak. I.e. anyone that doesn't actually work for the agency at least.

I think Patreon and similar is probably a better avenue for digital. More consistent support than selling peices as NFTs or in meat space and with digital I think you're more likely to find 100 people willing to spend $10 for a new wallpaper each month than 1 willing to spend $1000 on an NFT.

That's because some CAs are revoking certificates for some Russian websites. Of course they'll have technical ability for Major-in-the-Middle attack, so that's not something I'd exclude.

I wonder if there's rule which disallows CAs to revoke certificates without reason. It seems that those actions undermine the whole web security model.

Kazakhstan was wise to introduce national root certificates.
