There is at least a project aiming at specifying a protocol (and at developing associated tools) defining how developers can be paid, in order to let users support what they use (even through dependencies) according to their will and without too much of a burden.

Try using it with the -e flag, it gives exact matches for each space-separated word you type, ignoring order and case. This is usually the most useful way to search in my experience. For example, if I'm searching through my filesystem I can give it "pdf pascal", it will give me all the Pascal-related PDF files. But it won't match paths like this just because the letters appear throughout the string:

For what it's worth, the best attempt to define fascism that I know of comes from Umberto Eco (who actually enter adolescence under fascicm): https://www.pegc.us/archive/Articles/eco_ur-fascism.pdf .

I think that we should all read it before calling each other fascists :)
I would not. Science funding is pretty terrible, decided by politicians or groups the politicians choose who suit their interests.

I would suggest something more distributed, like giving each citizen €100 a month they can allocate to FOSS.

> Open Source volunteerism is the result of the early hacking culture

I don't agree with that take. There was not, to my knowledge, a "volunteerism" component of either early open source or early hacking culture (though my roots only go back to about the mid-80s). The "volunteer" part came later, as there was an explicit effort to emphasize open source as free as in free labor. What I used to see was openness in the sense of knowing what the code did and being able to make changes if you want. It was more of scratching your own itch and letting others play with the code if they wanted.
I would say it's more like a builder arguing against building codes. A high-quality building can certain be built without them, but sticking to some known formulas makes sure that everyone working on it is able to anticipate what others are going to do. It also makes sure that the building won't collapse, though this aspect doesn't really apply to software.

Software has gotten a lot more complicated since the 1990's and from my experience, projects where design patterns are used effectively run a lot more smoothly than those where they're not used or not used effectively. It's great when you can open a project from 15 years ago and say "Actually, the code isn't too bad!" because the developers followed some rules of thumb.

I agree with Casey that these rules of thumb aren't going to lead to higher-quality software from the end user's perspective. I doubt that they're going to make it worse though, unless they're blindly followed.

"Also, I don't think we want private citizens risking their lives or exaggerating details to get the rewards on a crime."

That's exactly what they're doing with this fumes law.

Many summary offense crimes have fines and/or a few days in jail as the punishment. The courts usually give the fine without jail in most cases. These are things like driving infractions, noise complaints, minor graffiti, leaving your car idle (separate from the commercial law), jaywalking, etc.

But if they are making all this money, why not expand the courts and hire more meter maids to do this work? As you bring up, they would likely be better suited to collet the evidence and it sounds like the courts can't handle the citation volume at the current levels.
My name was on the Sony lawsuit next to his, for what it's worth. I don't know him personally, but I did have to ask him to give us credit for just implementing our method when he posted the PS3 metldr keys without explanation, a week after we'd given a talk on it.

Show HN: FastInvoiceAI Automate Accounting of Invoices
The conservatives just recently fired a teacher in Mississippi because he read a funny book with the word 'butt' in it.

Republicans have already passed laws in several states that ban the teaching of material that could make people feel uncomfortable (e.g. that slavery was a thing).

And for an example of groupthink, look no further than Qanon to really see some textbook behavior.

Ultra-progressives are bad for this, but the ones doing the most and have the most power to do the most are regular conservatives.
If you're using neovim I suggest checking out telescope.nvim. In addition to searching for files, it comes with a Live Grep mode for searching the current buffer (or all files in a given directory).

The alternative is not the status quo. Look at all the talk of supply chain security from the big players. The alternative is that all power and profit is just moved to large institutional middlemen or directly to a few big companies who can afford such a program.

If you don't care about control over the downstream of your project, or funding, no one is forcing you to professionalize! I just want that to be available as an option to those who do.

I moved my oldest number from Voice to Fi specifically because I was anticipating (and had) several years of international travel in Europe and the Pacific.

FastInvoiceAI is a Java library for automating invoice accounting. I have just started this open source project, and I am interested in ideas for machine learning and AI, and how to make this project successful.
Several things don’t add up and just show ignorance or selfishness. Examples:

- traveling with covid

- needing to extend a visa after 20 days in the EU (Ukraine is not a Schengen country so he just entered) even though it’s 90 by default.

- thinking it “works in 150 countries” without limits

- attaching a sob story and unnecessary medical details about how much he needed for this to not happen

Since the lockout happened at least 17 days after he got the fever, he most likely does not have covid and can definitely fly back to the US, just like he flew with covid to Spain.

But of course that’s more inconvenient than just blaming someone else.

>social media being harmful is one of those things I personally don't really need a lot of hard data and evidence to be convinced.

I do. This same stance has been made for every media at some point in history. I feel in every case it's simply a smokescreen to hide deeper symptoms that no one wants to consider acknowledging, let alone treating.

> if you're worried about climate change, isn't social media the medium through which a huge part of all the nonsense denial gets spread and popularized?

it's a double edged sword. It's also why many youth may find out about climate change to begin with. cutting off all access simply creates ignorance instead of at the bare minimum awareness of the arguments being made. Maybe instead of blaming Facebook for the loonies not being listened to (if you're worried about climate change, the loonies clearly failed) we actually take actino to start preserving the envionment? But no, that takes actual congress bills to agree on.

Not sure how you can actually write this comment without realising how silly it is. It makes no sense to compare normal human procreation, a process which has evolved over billions of years and has many remarkable features, to this completely unethical and frankly insane meddling in the lives of children.
In the context of innovation intensive company:

Maybe you want both.

If you are absolutely sure you know what you need, then hire that skillset. Finding someone with the skillset is not hard. As someone mentioned earlier, this may also have some costs, as some developers may be confined in this box and unable to grow, or may want to move on elsewhere.

It sounds to me you are looking for an environment where ideas and innovation flourish and maybe potential to help define and shape the company vision. Capabilities and potential I find more important — finding someone with this skillset I think is hard to find.

I think if you are working on something cutting edge and innovative (yet to be seen by most of public), these good explorers will find you first.
But many people do have cars, arguably a larger number than trucks. Many of them letting it idle for fairly long periods of time in the winter to remove ice, in the summer for air-conditioning if waiting for someone, etc. So on the aggregate, they are still producing a high number of fumes.

Also, if the business requires the truck to idle to run loading, unloading, and processing equipment, then the law exempts them from the requirements while using that equipment.
We're supposed to believe that a company of the size of Amazon did this just to save $3000? This doesn't pass the sniff test. The most likely scenario is that the person did something egregious, got rightfully fired for it, and it happened to be a day before their bonus.

Some red flags:

- A one-off save of $3000 makes absolutely no sense for a company of the size of Amazon. Where are all the other workers who got fired for the same reason?

- We only have one side of the story.

- The post does not go into any detail about the firing. It's the classic "he was a good boy" story which falls apart instantly once you see hard evidence.

- The subreddit is incredibly biased against work in general.

- The poster has not made any further comments after posting the thread, no clarifications, nothing - a likely karma-farming attempt.

This is almost certainly fake.
But the other fundamental this article raises is that the "new" role winds up subject to the same constraints: if they traded up pay it may be a net win, but some regret is inevitable. But otherwise, one office is pretty much like another. Same HR rules apply, same expectations on behaviour and outcome.

I feel sorry for him. Spending your life trying to make it into a good story is sad. Most good stories have characters who are intentionally flawed in order to create conflict and plot. The best lives are fairly boring as far as narrative plot goes. It’s even a curse to live in interesting times.

I like what the React Training guys did with react-router: use the organic traffic from their library fuel their training business.

Treat the FOSS project as your lead funnel, then sell a service to those leads.

Maybe the service is training, maybe it's hosting the project (e.g Wordpress), perhaps it’s just leveraging it to get a lucrative job offer. You need to sell a service though on top of the project itself.
> primarily due to advertising having horrifically perverse incentives for human behavior. And they are all advertising platforms first and foremost at the moment.

no different from the rest of society as we know it today. Games now include ads, paid streaming platforms are STILL having ads for customers (needing to pay extra to opt-out), TV has commercials, real life has anything you can paint on, etc.

But most of us learn to filter out the ads. I don't see them as the biggest problem here so much as a lack of moderation.
I agree! I think Open Source volunteerism is the result of that culture, not its embodiment.

No other industry had a large portion of its R&D done by people scratching their own itch and sharing the results freely. That led to relying on that freely available work, which led to volunteerism.
Growing up on the lower east side I was always torn between playing stick ball with my boys, or running home to hear about my mom's latest exploits.

My mom was really my hero, because even as she took her fight for data sanitation out into the world she never lost site of building pure and clean relational engines from the ground up.

Really, my mom wasn't just my hero but a hero to all the kids in the district. Heck, almost every year we would spend days on the playground instead of the hated classroom thanks to her ingenuity!

But the best part of any day was when I was down in the sandlot with Butchie, Achmed, and Patty and my mom's voice would call down from our open kitchen window where she was baking and optimizing throughput "Bobby Tables, please accept these cookies I made for you and your friends in order to have energy for playing!"

That's why I am happy to share with you my mom's recipes for cookies and secure storage of cookie related acceptance data.

I never got far in other Souls games, but with Elden Ring the crucial difference is that if you leave and 'grind levels' before facing a particular boss again, it's not really grinding most of the time.

There's so much unique/interesting content, that one could just work through that and gain enough levels, weapons, etc. to beat whatever situation you struggled with before.

Furthermore, it's only pretty late in the game that a boss truly 'gates' your progress. The first boss and big dungeon, for example, can be bypassed entirely, opening up a region that is as big as the first region(s).

I've played this game for about 30 hours now, and until now I avoided dungeons, mini-bosses, the first 'real' boss, and lots of the stronger enemies. And even though I've explored most of the starting areas, I still find new things.

It's only now (level 30+ character) that this approach starts to feel grindy, so I've finally been exploring caves and dungeons, and tried beating mini-bosses and occasionally the first main boss.

From what I hear, until some of the endgame stuff, I can expect at least as much content and variety from each of the upcoming regions. I've probably encountered less than 10% of all the stuff in this came.

The graphical design and mechanics aside (which are excellent), the staggering amount of content is one of the best things about this game.
Indeed, our roads are much better, probably worldwide.

Part of the pleasure of cycling for me is the audacity of getting around on a machine that would not have seemed out of place in 1890. Although, while the shape of the bike hasn't changed all that much, a huge amount of progress is hidden in the materials used. Were I forced to change one component of her bike with its modern version, it would be the tires.
Yes. This says it succinctly. The attrition rate is above that normally considered acceptable in the west. Make some allowances for a harsher regime (Russian cadets die from hazing far too often) but for the families, nothing is bringing their boys home. Putin can't fix this. He can only lose support from this war.

The Uyghurs being targeted for deradicalization are Wahhabist (an offshoot of Salafism) that have a lot in common with, and in many cases directly trained by, Al Qaeda.

Granted, the net may be slightly larger than it needs to be due to China's high population density and the resulting fact that terroristic acts have a high human cost... but it's nowhere near the scale of our (US) net across Afghanistan, Syria, and Pakistan.

The vast majority of muslim communities in China have nothing to do with this kind of extremist ideology, don't commit acts of mass terror, and are not part of these deradicalization programs.
It is a dark and gloomy Wednesday night. Colin steps out of his beat-up Corolla, with the rain relentlessly (but unsuccessfully) trying to dissolve his leather jacket. He's getting close to 30 and is always telling his friends that he will have a weekend house with a koi pond in the backyard some day, but they laugh in response -- who cares about fish these days?

Things are getting complicated at work. The app he's been working on for the past few months turned out to be a hit, new subscribers are appearing at every moment; in short, business is booming! They even got a column in the local newspaper, getting high praise for both form and functionality.

A problem presents itself when too many people are trying to use the app at the same time - it looks like the database software can not keep up with the demands of this immense crowd. An impromptu meeting is held, and Colin is tasked with coming up with a solution. Getting closer to the front door, he thinks to himself, "How can we handle this incredible volume of traffic when it reaches the database cluster?", but his thoughts soon drift off again.

My uncle had a new X series with a 60ft front that also slaves the chaser bin for unloading so you’re basically automating the unloading as well - it’s wild.

Our country is all to undulating I think to be even close to being fully autonomous anytime in the next 2.0 years but it will be interesting to see how this all develops.

IIRC the average age of a congressman is the mid 50's, and the senate the early 60's. That would be right before their time.

Supabase (YC S20) Is Hiring a Lead Golang Developer for Auth
Honestly, I can't give you an actionable plan at the moment. We are simply not there yet.

Eventually I hope there will be social norms (like how you advertise the option), tools (like payment rails and platforms, hopefully not like Patreon, but more like those lawyers use to invoice clients), resources, and even training. I hope it will become a standard transaction, that companies have processes for approving with no ad-hoc work.

But for now, whoever wants to try this is in uncharted territory, will have to discover what works by trial and error, will have to teach companies how to think about them, and will need some significant leverage to spend (such as personal networks, visible projects, and savings).

I think debating the definition of fascism is a bit beside the point when it comes to judging political movements. Fascism is dangerous because of its emphasis on violence and dehumanization of opponents (among other things). If a movement hits all of the worst aspects of fascism or even a significant subset of them, well then it’s bad, whether or not it can be labeled fascism.
