The key is that we don't try very hard to resist these things. Maybe some social media posts, or a comment on HN, or a vote on election day. All things that are free (oh there's that word again) and don't require us to actually give up anything. Because that's exactly what morality is about: the giving up of something that benefits you but causes harm to someone else.

How many people choose to take a pay cut to work for as socially responsible company as they can? How many forgo the convenience and time savings of Amazon and shop at places that are more expensive because they are local small businesses or businesses that pay and treat their workers better? How many spend less on gadgets and luxuries and redirect those funds to making the world better, or to enable them to take the aforementioned socially responsible pay cut? How many advantaged people forgo using that advantage to gentrify neighborhoods and displace the disadvantaged to less desirable places? How many advantaged people forgo hoarding education resources for their children at the expense of children for whom society is already rigged against (e.g. liberal NYC has the most segregated schools in the country)?
Who controls the media in the US? Not the president. That's an improvement over Russia.

Who has done more genocides than the US? Seriously? Imperial Spain. The Mongol Horde. The Muslim conquest of much of the near east. Imperial Japan. Soviet Russia. Nazi Germany. The Aztec Empire. That's with about two minutes' thought. If I were a historian or bothered to do research, I'm sure I could expand the list.

Your bias is blinding you. Take an actual look at actual history.
1) Not nearly enough. This has become more of a hot topic as of late.

2) IANAL and can’t speak to this.

3) The US lags many places in the world on its legal accessibility requirements. Depending on the country, you’re probably at HIGHER risk outside the US. Check out this really useful collection of laws and policies from around the world: https://www.w3.org/WAI/policies/
The "FEX" mentioned needing 4k page size is about running x86* games on ARM64 much like Rosetta2, including Proton. Really need the GPU though, the standard desktop is already extremely taxing even though the CPU is extremely fast.
OneWeb is in deep trouble. Other than tiny Vega, Arianespace has done only 3 launches on its own rockets vs. 10 on Soyuz since 2021. Sounds like it's time for the EU to actually build a space program. The era of hard power is back.

With Vulcan waiting on years delayed BE-4 (and New Glenn on BE-4 and rest of the rocket as well), SpaceX launching Starlink constellation on its own reusable rockets is looking like the only game in town for a while.

They have competition: if we get to the point where Bing/DuckDuckGo results are clearly better, people will start moving, and that will hurt their revenue badly.
It depends if people are asking you for personal recommendations, or you’re adding this to a company-recommended reading list.

The Pragmatic Programmer is still my favorite all-around book on programming. Gang of Four is good for folks with a few more years of experience and a critical mindset. I also really like POODR, it shows you that designs should be extracted and it’s great for any level, and it touches on a lot of functional concepts.
Reminds me of early in my career where I encountered a home made time sync system because the creator had never heard of NTP.
Ranchers I know who have the most to gain form correct labels lobbied to get rid of it, the WTO didn't like it and they didn't see any gain. This was back when Obama was president though so maybe things have changed?
> Compare with the proverbial suitcase full of cash. From a security perspective, it has the interesting property that transactions involving one don't have to be publicly recorded and processed on a public, global, openly accessible peer-to-peer network in order to complete.

Hence why governments around the world are pushing towards cash free societies.

Physical cash is where most illegal (whether you think it's the good illegal or the bad illegal) transactions happen.
A starting point for exploring Wikipedia is "List of lists of lists"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_lists_of_lists
When comparing the articles for <div> on MDN and W3Schools they look rather similar. Both show that a div can get styled by using class or id. But MDN is a lot more careful in their wording and gives important context.

W3Schools writes:
> The <div> tag defines a division or a section in an HTML document.
From a semantic perspective this is not true or it's at least misleading. <div> does not define a section or division, that's what <section> or <article> is for.

The MDN article in contrast calls a div a "generic container" and has a disclaimer that says.
> The <div> element should be used only when no other semantic element (such as <article> or <nav>) is appropriate.

And while W3Schools does not say "div is a cool box", they instead write "Any sort of content can be put inside the <div> tag!", which...yeah.
Ya this is the keyboard I thought of as chiclet, but forgot that it's also old af now
The government need not even be especially hostile per se, just unwilling or unable to adjudicate that particular transaction. With crypto, the basic operation of the transaction is enforced via a mechanism shared by all users of that cryptocurrency, and a mutually-trusted third-party arbitrator (or even a more complex decision mechanism, defined by a smart contract) can be chosen to address any potential concerns in advance. These are compelling properties even though they're rather costly to ensure when transactions are not centrally managed.

Agreed that it isn't limited to Russians, but I do think there is a scale difference when it comes to the ultra-wealthy from Russia.

For example, when I was home in London a few years ago we had dinner at a fancy Chinese restaurant in Mayfair. My wife and I were chatting with the Maître D' for a bit, and he told us that they scheduled their host staff such that at least one person was present at all times who could converse fluently in Russian, in order to cater to their big spenders.

I know this is only an anecdote but I do think it is uniquely specific to Russian oligarchs. Aside from Harrods, which have specific staff to converse with the wealthy from China, the ME, etc. I didn't encounter a similar form of catering/pandering to the wealthy Chinese, Middle Easterners, etc. elsewhere.
Exactly. You agreed then?
That 10 min train ride is pretty exceptional though. I had about 20 on the metro + 20 walkwhich was amazing.

In other jobs I've had 1 hour driving commutes which could go up to 3 hours due to heavy traffic in the area. It was absolutely exhausting and depressing.

So this depends a lot of your circumstances. Also, many people love to drive. I hate it and it stresses me out especially when I'm stuck in traffic.
I would also encourage not distributing binaries without checksums available on multiple sources
Yeah, a lot of this assumes you get out of Canada at that point. Just like the people fleeing Russia or Ukraine.

The thing crypto gives you is the capability to get your wealth out intact (at least whatever you had moved into self-custody). If you have fiat in banks frozen by the Canadian government your wealth is trapped.

You’re right if Canada banned Bitcoin it could influence the value of the coin. Similar to governments refusing transactions in rubles. The difference in capability is in the ability to move your wealth and that short of global coordination a global store of value (controlled supply, non-government etc.) is more resilient. The fiat comparison would be having the entirety of your wealth in cash in your house - obviously not viable (and good luck trying to cross a border with it).

Crypto is also more resilient to government meddling in currency production (this is often over-stressed in US, but is a real problem in developing countries where kleptocrats devalue the currency to steal the wealth).

It’s more similar to buying gold and having it on you, but with crypto you don’t have to keep it on your person to maintain direct control of it. You just need to know the seed words.
The authority of English local government is highly constrained, and very little of what makes London attractive to kleptocrats was put in place by city hall (either under Johnson or his Labour predecessor or successor).

Most of the Russian money in politics is flowing through the Conservative party. They're currently in power, traditionally more wealth friendly, and rely on big-money individual and corporate donors to a greater degree than Labour (who have union funding and also many more members to pay subs). That said, the last Labour government (up to 2010) was also beguiled by rich people, and there are definitely a few Labour backbenchers who have been bought off.
I suspect this will result in lesser salaries for everybody over time.
I'm not a 1password fan. I begrudgingly pay the subscription due to being too lazy to find an alternative my wife would be ok with.

But with that said I don't have any of these issues. I find 1password comes up when I need it and goes away when I'm done.

I do find 1password's Android integration is excellent. That I am a fan of.
Where I live in a busy city these are also ubiquitous. But many people live in small towns where people have never heard of those. Just saying :)

You perfectly demonstrate what's wrong with American morality. You, as a smart person can't possibly believe, that everybody in the intelligence chain honestly believed that Iraq has WMD. At some level someone conciously created erroneous interpretation of phsyical evindence, someone conciously oversold their case, someone choose not to doubt what the information seems to indicate. Because it was so goddamn convenient to everybody.

And now you state that it all doesn't matter because it's not provable. That the killer didn't kill because he was careful enough to leave no clear evidence only circumstantial.

US in the Iraq was OJ of nations. And Americans are fine with that. Fine with pretending to believe that US didn't invade Iraq just because it wanted to. Not because they honestly believed there were WMDs there.

The same dumb "you can't prove anything therefore I'm blameless' shows up everywhere in US. In courts, in government offices, in corporations. In underlies troubles in so many dysfunctional systems of USA.
Oh, ya that's the keyboard I like actually, forgot it's also quite old now. The one I thought you were referring to, which seemed to me more like most mechanical keyboards in terms of their keydepth, would be this one https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_keyboards#/media/File:Ap...

I really like the Sculpt, because it has roughly the same chiclet style depth, while also being 10-keyless, wireless, reverse-tilting, and divided in a way that I find comfortable.

Now that I've been typing on it so long though, I find that typing on any keyboard that's straight is just so subpar. Taika Waititi communicated this best, because your shoulders have to bend inward and your hands outward https://www.theverge.com/2020/2/9/21130967/oscars-taika-wait...

It's rather the reverse. How macOS handles it is by asking for user credentials on a security policy downgrade, and enforcing that by the Secure Enclave.

(and if you have user creds, you _have access to user data anyway_)

On other platforms, that tying... just doesn't exist.

I'm not surprised, if you look at the front-page articles a lot of the time there will be something about the latest JS framework. HN has a significant number of web developers in its userbase.

Gmail has a static HTML version too.
am founder of Breeze, https://breezethat.com/

1. free version is curated topic filters that sit on top of Google -- best on laptop or desktop at moment / iterating mobile due to ad splash; it's unclear due to TOU that we can ever make that fully server-side legally, though do so have some things testing to see if free version can be ad-free or more tracking free

2. premium version will be mix of our scraping and Bing, depending on topic - standard web search via Bing + same curation as (1), closer to real-time for us

3. have tested out most other indie indexes or sites, for full web scale, money is on ahrefs or brave giving bing / google run for it

4. our primary emphasis is on bringing back some of the Yahoo! directory or Alta Vista look & feel of drilling into topics, so balancing 1-3 (^) as best we can atm, small team, fully bootstrapped modulo tiny F&F round

5. also @DotDotJames on twitter, still iterating when add team info to site

This post is filled with new stuff (for me) as vega, nbb and bulma. Great job !
Case in point, marijuana and sex work/pornography, even where legal, are very often not permitted in the financial system and often have to deal directly with physical cash, and of course were some of the early adopters of cryptocurrency.

You don't have to find either of these use cases acceptable to understand the risk at play when the financial system can be used as a mechanism of control used to try to snuff out things the establishment upper class doesn't like without going through proper legal channels and kept in check by our elected representatives.
Companies could play it smart and seek out compromises- what about hybrid that’s a couple times a week every two or more weeks? What about getting rid of open office floor plans and instituting cubicles, if not individual offices or at least team offices?
You're giving the earnings back to investors because you don't have anything to invest them in yourself. Just like you're supposed to.

It's just that you're just doing it through a buyback rather than a dividend because dividends in the US are taxed like plain-old income and buybacks turn into capital gains and are taxed less.
> I think oligarchs would take him down if they got offered clear road forward from current troubles (if they believed it).

They can't, in the 90s oliagarchs had power, not now. With Putin only his silovik cronies can do anything about him, but they won't because the system is set up so that their families would suffer from the hands of his other friends. I see this as completely lost. North Korea has a bigger chance to get a new ruler after the coup than Russia. Putin has more power than a Tsar ever had.
If you are willing to completely cut ties. No bank account, no property, no memberships, no ties at all. Then you have to wait for a period of time. It won't be easy and they may retroactivity tax you.

If you got married had a family took another citizenship and lived for many years away your plan could work.

The easiest legally would be to set it up under a company and pay a much lower tax rate.
That protocol runs on computers owned by people who live in a legal jurisdiction. The protocol doesn't run in some parallel dimension. The people who run nodes are subject to laws, and the people who interact with nodes are subject to laws.

You've been confused into thinking that laws can't apply to them merely because laws haven't yet been written to apply to them. Now that governments feel they have a reason to write these laws, the laws are being written. In the early years of the Internet, purchases on the Internet were not taxed. That does not mean they couldn't be taxed, despite what many people thought.
Yes. My last few jobs, developers get full admin/root access to their personal machines.
exploring adding that search / similar as breeze filter at https://breezethat.com/- not sure can do with curation + bing or google, may have to wait until we bring our scraper out of testing
Restaurants remodel all the time. Does replacing an old door trigger lots of other work?
Seems like wishful thinking to me.

Unless crypto becomes actually useful for real world transactions, it has to be converted to fiat currency for use, and all the exchanges or technologies that do that conversion are subject to the will of governments.

There was literally a post on HN today in which a government proposed to curtail crypto transactions for entities it considers hostile: https://www.coindesk.com/policy/2022/03/17/senator-elizabeth...

Recently another government seized crypto assets from those it considered adversaries: https://www.coindesk.com/policy/2022/02/16/canada-sanctions-...

And those are just actions taken by relatively benign governments that use regulation to accomplish their goals instead of force. It's tough to think that government-level actors couldn't just disrupt the crypto networks directly if they so desired, either through cyber attacks (ie denial of service or exploiting vulnerabilities that almost certainly exist in the crypto networks). Or in extreme cases even just taking control of network infrastructure directly. Or shutting off the internet. And no, Starlink will not save crypto users against adversaries who can jam EM communications.

Governments are powerful and to think that crypto or anything in the internet space is resistant to that power in the most extreme situations is not wise.
If they can't tell if you are working or not without physically watching you come into an office and sit at the desk for 40 hours every week, then WTF is your actual job? It certainly can't be something consequential that the business actually needs to have done. If it were, they would quickly notice if you aren't doing it.

(Edit: As a concrete example, I once worked on an all distributed team where it was abundantly obvious to the whole team that a new hire was goofing off. If they were simply having issues meeting productivity expectations, that would have been one thing, the kind of thing we could hopefully resolve with closer mentoring. But they were also really difficult to get a hold of during the day, and frequently made lame excuses - or obvious lies - for why they couldn't be available for meetings on short notice. Things like that.)
Maybe nobody says they minds, y'know.

Or even if they really don't mind: they have to let go people and it's down to three of you. Three out of two have only that job ... then there is this 22 year old with two.
Please go ahead and name any other well-paying pre-IPO tech company which has regularly scheduled liquidity events for its employees as a matter of publicly stated company policy (rather than as random one-offs, which are already pretty rare).

What's that? There are none? You don't say!

A "healthy" secondary market there may be, but that does employees of most startups little good when selling their equity requires board approval, which 1) is a huge hassle, 2) is not even remotely guaranteed to be granted, and 3) there's no reliable way to figure out if you'll have that chance before you join and try it (at least a year later).

A Senior 1 offer from Cruise just went from 300k cash and 225k "equity" per year ("IPO plans? What IPO plans?") to 300k cash and 225k equity per year ("Yep, you can sell it every three months. Sure, we could roll this program back, but we'd probably lose 20% of our new hires within a month."). Good luck finding another startup that'll give you the same promise!
I wonder how the license changes are going to get enforced in Russia, it seems unlikely to happen there.
Nah, I think MAD and letting Russia eat itself from within is working as well as anything can be expected to.

Putin replaced 1k staffers over fears they'd poison him
Is it really your selling point that crypto is good because Russians can wage war while circumventing sanctions? The whole point of sanctions is to pressure bad actors to change. You've invented a technology that allows them to continue doing evil? Hurrah?
It's a bit early (obviously, hence Alpha) but if the pace and purpose of the project make you excited consider bumping a few dollars towards the donation links in the article to help these folks afford to get it done.

Damn it. And I spend so much time making fun of people who can't hear sarcasm.
I'm not even sure why atheism has a name. It doesn't feel like a category that anyone would identify with. Lots of people are simply not religious which is more like being null in the religion category while atheism is like -1.
Wouldn't you also need to get Linux working first though? Like why would Linux be easier than XNU?

I will say, I find it a little annoying that going to https://alx.sh directly in my browser redirects to asahilinux.org. What if I want to read the script before I run it?

I realize there are other ways to do that (e.g. curl), but why make it difficult?
From the release note above, I guess FEX would have been the "Rosetta 2" for Asahi but seems to be also out of the question ATM so you are right no Proton indeed for the time being. I didn't know Proton was WINE-IS-NOT-an-EMULATOR based thanks for info :)

You don't even really need to replace the divs, just add tabIndex="0" on the things that should be focusable/tab-able.
Government is not the only reason. The credit card cartel will deny certain types of businesses in areas they consider shady like sex toys or legal drugs or certain media. Cryto offers a payment method for these cases.
It seems to me that if BA thought they were more than 50% of the population, then of course they would be outraged if they aren't getting at least 50% representation in executive positions, TV & movie actors, government officials, etc. Even if they got 14% representation (doubt they do, but I don't know), they would still be outraged. This seems like an unbelievably huge issue that needs to be solved.
Cool idea. Great project!
There are strong lower bounds in the error of pure-software time synchronization techniques. Is the proposal to incorporate additional hardware, or are they just probabilistically increasing the accuracy? If the latter, what applications can benefit from maybe being better synchronized, not being able to measure how much better the synchronization is, and maybe still having the same worst-case bounds that other algorithms give?
Telco workloads and 5g require precise time using technologies like ptp. The cheaper, more commodity those solutions get the better.

Sure, but the question isn't how it could run otherwise, but how well it runs in comparison to other options for running Linux.
That no one in power has cared is less remarkable that the fact that democracy's supposed watchdogs (i.e. the media) don't care, until now that is. At least this is definitely the first I have heard of it.

EDIT: After fully reading the article, I realized that the author of the article deals with this issue: U.K.'s libel laws make it dangerous for media watchdogs to call out oligarchs explicitly.
