Congrats to the CSS-Tricks team!
But if you don’t know much C (or even much about programming at all) you might not have the context to even know that. Which is related to the point of the article. Goals are hard because they require you to predict the future. Milestones are easier because they are past looking. But if you just use your current skill level you may not even account those past things as milestones. So you need to consciously celebrate them.

Haha. Booterizer does look neat. I got my O2 off of Ebay about 4 years back. I was trying to relive the 90's...
The idea that anyone would defend the British monarchy at the low point it has now reached is hilarious. However I’m certain you are correct.

Imagine a taxpayer bailout to support the settlement a paedophile is having to make.

On the one hand, I want to downvote you for the typical "change your usecase" response, but on the other hand Fortnite and its ilk are designed to be addictive and rip people off and reducing their influence in your kids' life is probably a good idea.
> You describe step-by-step in a detailed way what would be needed to implement the usual way and then simply glosses over "build the integration with my game & a generic API". That is exactly the tricky part, isn't it?

Handling and managing money transactions to run an auction sounds very much like a tricky part, there's a lot of regulation I'd be getting involved in going down that road.

Building the integration with the game doesn't sound hard, no, and it's the same either way. Authenticate, call API to check ownership - beyond that it's down to your game. (edit - to be clear here, the API already exists, I'm not saying "build a generic API" but "use an existing, highly interchangeable service")

The point here is that that side is identical in both cases.

> The integration to your game also depends on your game having some kind of linking between the NFT and your in-game item (hence a database).

I'm not sure what you mean, this can be as simple as a hard-coded list in the game, it doesn't have to be a shared database.

> It depends on the communication with this generic API being reliable enough so you can completely offload your load to that

Sure, but they really are quite generic - you can swap them out for one another easily, they implement the same interface for this kind of work. There's subtle differences when it comes to more complex cases but "read public information" isn't one of them.

> Trivialising the work of "build the integration with my game" as something that "just happens" is a naive way to shove the hard work unto a trivial step.

What about this do you think is going to be the tricky part? Authenticating the user? Checking if that account currently owns the NFT?
True for the NBA and most of the college season. But March Madness is always entertaining. IMO, of course.

A factor is oil change shops still put a sticker on the windshield that says to come back in 3000 miles. It's of course in their interest for people to change their oil too often.

This is one of the few instances where I can say I trust the acquiring company. I've been a fan of DigitalOcean since I started using them. They haven't given me a reason to dislike them. And like the post says, they do write some handy tutorials. One that's helped me a few times is how to spin up a quick FTP server on Debian, because for some reason I can never configure it right.

Congrats to the original owner on getting acquired, and by a company that will most likely do well with it.
We unknowingly did this at work. We had firewalls in place and docker was more than happy to open up redis to the world. Big lesson learned.
At least if the are fake they can't be used for drugs and terrorism. Otherwise it wouldn't be fake :)

You're contradicting yourself many times in this thread.
I'm very happy with my Fairphone 3+ bought here:

They sell mobiles with /e/OS preinstalled, which is their privacy enhanced version of LineageOS (Android).
I've heard it expressed as "pain is a signal, suffering is a choice".
I didn't mention languages specifically because they're really only a small part of programming knowledge.

A Turing-complete language is just that, Turing-complete. Sorting used to be hard. It used to be novel. It used to be something you could study. Now it's something you're expected to just know. B-Trees, A* pathfinding, mapreduce, etc. were all, at one time, cutting edge computer science. Now they're the basis of it.

Knowledge breeds knowledge. And every piece of knowledge has the potential to open entirely new pathways of knowledge. Apple Pay depends on NFC depends on RFID depends on radio technology, etc.
I don't but there do seem to be some good reviews here on HN (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28606962)
Well, many people don’t want to pay the factor of 2 performance cost of a managed language like Java and strcpy in C is Turing complete and most code has to portable to at least x86 and ARM (often both 32 and 64 bits) so assembly is out…

Why can't journalists use honest titles for their reports? This is simply a story about one single case. The report tries to spin this as if it represents a wide-ranging phenomenon.

Did soviet spies infiltrate American state department and other government agencies during the cold war? Yes. Were there cases of wrong accusations? Yes. But you can't simply point out a case of wrong accusation and deny the wide-ranging infiltration of soviet spies. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soviet_espionage_in_the_United...

The wide-ranging of recruiting of U.S. academics by the Chinese government is no secret at all. It is self-evident by the Thousand Talents Plan.
( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thousand_Talents_Plan ). Many of the involved academics did so secretly and illegally. They are not necessarily "spies", nor were they commonly accused of being "spies". The article created a strawman narrative, and then try to debunk the strawman with a single case, for the whole purpose of creating an xenophobia narrative.
Bought it in a heartbeat when I saw it mentionned on ars technica.

In searching to attempt to find corroboration for this factoid, literally the only things mentioning pilots and blackout curtains I could find were your own comment here and a random forum post from a pilot saying blackout curtains don't really work. Nothing about any requirement that pilots only be placed in hotel rooms with blackout curtains.

All?!
Precisely. Developers hate users because users are the ones who want them to do things like fix bugs and make software reliable, which isn't as fun as cramming in new features and rewriting things in new languages and frameworks. Even open source software suffers from this, just look at GNOME.
They shouldn't exist. They cost money, they don't generate the revenue to recoup that cost, they don't drive economic activity to recoup the cost. No one should pay for them- except the people who directly enjoy using them

It is possible that 98% of people aren't as familiar with digging through said menus, and that they would prefer having a default application, and that this is the way to force it.

I don't enjoy power-user features and functions being removed from a device, but I've come to expect it on mobile. I don't think it is always willful "evil". It may just be "this is how most people do it, this is a way to simplify code/UX/etc." and they pull the trigger without thinking about the HN or reddit thread with a few people complaining.
I am referring to the value of the currency compared to itself in the past. A dollar today is not worth the same amount as a dollar yesterday. Inflation is that decline in value over time. Less commonly, it is also possible for a currency to become worth more over time, which is what we refer to as deflation.

If, for argument's sake, a dollar halved in value, the price of a widget of constant value would double to maintain equality in the exchange. What makes things complicated is that the value of the widget isn't constant and can also change over time, so we can't just look at that widget to see how the value of the currency is changing. Instead, we try to look for price trends across a wide range of products (CPI) to try and infer what is related to currency devaluation rather than changing values of other goods and services.
AFAIK this is how it worked with classical OS packages (think rpm/yum/apt/etc.)

It's the data which doesn't make sense, as a starting point. Look at their reported death data before and after 4/19/20 and tell me if that makes sense to you? It's laughably obvious

There is "war in return". It is far from certain that Putin is willing to start nuclear war. In my view, it is unlikely that he would use nuclear weapons. And if he is willing to use them he will use them because he is loosing in Ukraine, without regard as to why is he loosing in Ukraine.
Not OP, but had the same experience several years ago. The answer is yes.

If you want a cheap test, you can tape aluminum foil over your bedroom window(s) for a night (learned this from The Martian!). It will fully block all light, and you probably already have what you need to try it in your home. Note that it does have the downside that from the outside you look like a crazy person.

From an economic point of view, it appears both countries are sick of having to use USD as reserve currency. If China starts trading directly with Russia and other countries, using Yuan, we may see the USD losing power.
I've also recently heard of larger VC firms quietly (secretly) buying tech publications lately. There's a lot of value in the eyeballs -- perhaps also the narrative.

As a small suggestion, I would show any edits to the text of a smort’d article in another color and state that in the banner. It’s far to easy to completely rewrite an article, share it, and claim that it was from the source. I know, it’s kind of an edge case of a bad actor. And yes, I know you could do this through other methods, just would be a nice feature to not only deter said bad actor but also let me know what I edited.
Startup Ideas (2015)
My theory is that it's because the end-user is less familiar with how household goods and machines work than in prior generations. With chips in everything, it's hard to tell at a glance what's good and what's rubbish; you can't kick the tires. Even if you could, there have been a couple generations where buying stuff new has been cheaper than repairing it, so knowing how to sew or fix a dishwasher isn't the value proposition that it once was--and that stuff has become as cheaply made as possible as a result.
I didn’t recognise anything except St Martins from this video.

Birmingham is in an unfortunate position in the UK- while technically it’s the second city (where London is the largest, richest and most populous), Birmingham by contrast seems deeply impoverished and constantly attempting to redesign itself.

The city, thusly, has more cameras per capita than London, since crime and poverty are slightly more abundant.

I was raised in neighbouring Coventry, my father was from Birmingham, as was my first girlfriend and college.

Coventry was much worse than Birmingham of course, but they’re both pretty grim compared to places like Evesham, Oxford, Leamington Spa or Bath
>implicit notion is that your worthiness is so obvious

Where do you get the idea that this is part of imposter syndrome? The whole concept of imposter syndrome is that it's an irrationally held belief and the person doesn't feel worthy despite evidence to the contrary.

That your own experience with people making the claim has been from people from elite schools/jobs/etc. doesn't prove anything about imposter syndrome being fundamentally a humble brag: Half the people that apply to elite schools exceed the average academic profile for admission to those schools and there are plenty of qualified candidates for most job openings in elite workplaces. Chance & luck play a huge part in in who, of the many qualified individuals, get those spots.

Why is it hard for you to understand that some people irrationally but honestly focus exclusively on the chance & luck aspects of their accomplishments? Irrationality is hardly uncommon, why is it difficult to believe that imposter syndrome isn't just another one, and instead must be some sort of bragging?

It is also possible that, in your social circles, people are simply misusing the term as a misguided way to acknowledge the role that chance & luck played in their success. Of course there's always going to be some annoying people that often use it as a chance to slip "I went to an Ivy League school" or some other brag into a conversation, but that doesn't mean everyone does.

I'm also not sure it's right.

Consider two systems of spins in an external magnetic field. Suppose system A has all the spins in their high energy state (wrong way given the field) - so it has the most negative temperature possible. Suppose system B is similar, except a few of the spins are in their low energy state - so it has a slightly less extreme negative temperature. If the two systems interact, the few low-energy spins ought to even out between the two systems, which means energy has flowed from A to B (lower temperature to higher temperature).

The LISP comparison doesn’t ring true to me or even the ‘ergonomic ML’. There is nothing ergonomic about Rust at all compared to managed languages, but if you are willing to fight with the borrow checker you can get managed language safety with C speed. (I wonder though if we’d be better off with a closely integrated assembler and theorem prover if portability was not so important.)
In some ways, CSS-Tricks is a competitor to Digital Ocean's technical article marketing strategy. They are pretty high up in the search results for plenty of different technical answers, even beating out StackOverflow pretty often.
If you take it as a one off maybe it is more difficult to make the finances add up. However given the groundswell of change happening right now, political willpower to change, private funding, corporate support and public support these changes look to be inevitable. I think you need a bit more of a can do attitude than a meh looks impossible to me why bother mindset.

In the case of hydrogen - it isn't that difficult. You develop on site hydrogen production capabilities and replace the fleet returning to site to re-fuel. Self contained.

Getting rid of the old infrastructure - good local jobs to do that, and upgrade it with something new. Come on now, that was too easy.
I bet it is in the millions. I help manage some sites which have CSS tutorials on them, and even if the article is about something like "How to use the CSS counter() property" - if you have the words "center" and "div" mentioned in the article, Google Search Console will report impressions for that article with keywords like "how to center a div". Funny!

This really doesn’t benefit employees that stay longer than a year.

Let’s say I give you $100,000 in RSU over four years. Now the stock doubled at the end of the first year. Your stock is now worth $200,000

In the other scenarios they offer you $25,000 a year granted each year. You end up with $100,000 over the four years…

Essentially the company is not allowing you to realize the stock price gains on your entire grant.

Not a good deal if the stock price is going up.

> Whatever the reason, the standard for a “slow machine” remained unchanged, and soon the level of hardware reached the point where even the cheapest computers on the market easily blew past all the “fast machine” requirements.

The most popular writers on this site (and others) have this habit of presenting their opinion as the ground truth and it annoys the heck out of me. There are VERY few things I can be confident about, I don't pretend to be that smart. Then you get people like Jordan Peterson who present a mix of truth and unsourced, unverifiable nonsense with the same confidence and charisma, who become thought leaders. Nobody is going to listen to the person saying "I'm not sure" or "I don't know".
