Disposable and film cameras are taking off again, kind of like what happened with vinyl records. My favorite part about shooting film is the mystery of it. When you shoot film the intention is high since you have a limited number of (expensive) shots: These days a disposable camera costs $25 when you factor in development.

Later Cam gives you a disposable/film experience for less than half the cost. It's $12.99 for 27 photos delivered.

At first the app held your photos for 3 days (simulating a film lab), let you preview your photos in-app with the option to order select prints by mail. After dozens of user interviews it became clear we also need (or maybe only need) a print-first mode where all of your photos get printed and the first time you see them is when they arrive in the mail.

We support "party cams" so you can shoot into the same camera with family and friends. Everyone shoots from their own iPhone or Android. One of the coolest things we do is turn your prints into postcards so you can slap on a postcard stamp and forward them to friends.

The last few weeks we've been experimenting with weddings which has been a blast. We create a custom wedding camera matching your invitation or use your engagement photos. Guests can easily download the app and get into the wedding cam with QR codes on signs and table cards we mail out ahead of the wedding. A week after the wedding the newlyweds get all the photos in the mail.

If anyone is interested in a beta invite I'd love to connect.
While I agree that PW managers alter the DOM elements that could be identified, I've never seen 1Pass inject a button like this. I have however seen it add data attributes to elements though. What PW Managers add a button like that?
I'm always confused by this comment about hooks. You can sus out the basics of how hooks work under the hood by just looking at their relatively simple rules that govern their usage. More from Dan Abramov: https://medium.com/@dan_abramov/making-sense-of-react-hooks-...

I think they are actually _more_ explicit than classes about how the state is stored. IMO `this` in class based components isn't as straightforward (e.g. https://overreacted.io/why-do-we-write-super-props/)
Cash flow.

Look at Uber… it wasn’t uncommon for drivers to pay Uber to work as comp was less than depreciation. They were basically working for free to cash out car equity.
They are "fixed" by extending the evidence base for decision making well beyond raw clinical trial data and publications on them (none of which ever translates into real world practice outcomes anyway).

In important instances (such as expensive meds going to large numbers of people) the payer will commission their own research e.g. through NIHR
https://www.nihr.ac.uk/

There is a whole field of "value of information" now to estimate how incorrect information would affect a decision and whether it warrants research investment (which covers publication bias - e.g. how many unpublished studies showing no or negative effects would there need to be to change the decision)
I watch most videos on 1.5 - 1.8, and sometimes even run some parallel. That's pretty normal these days with all that low quality-content around. But even then, watching 200h in a week is pretty awful. And for high quality content I usually take a bit more time, after all it's worth it.
> a side effect profile that matches what women can deal with

Do we in fact know that the side effects (of which method?) are equivalent to female birth-control (again - which?), or are you speculating? And is avoiding unknown side-effects a sign of fragility, or caution?
You haven’t made an argument for why you think it is a lie. It would be helpful if you did that.
Indeed. We need to build some sort of scalator, so more people get a shot at arriving there, instead of spending whole careers just to fall midway, nowhere near the shoulders.
Same IP + same User-Agent is not unique at all. I know nothing about big data unique identification of visitors, but I do know that much.

Not just consumer electronics. We used to install xray machines in shoe stores to see how well your shoes fit. Common through the 70s.

By the same logic, you could argue that `x++` doesn't work work for floats. As long as your intermediate values stay between `Number.MAX_SAFE_INTEGER` and `Number.MIN_SAFE_INTEGER`, you'll be fine.
There’s no such thing as a free lunch. You pay taxes, and some of the taxes go towards health care.
Criticism is not always respectful and it stings more often than not but it’s important to long-term success. What would help the open web even more would be to address issues instead of asking that no one brings up. (You’re also very much allowed to be tired of reading it over and over without it being invalid.)

It’s completely fair game to criticize the overhead costs of charities: it’s one of the most common things to criticize about charities, in fact.
It did. I know this, because I'm the author of that Twitter thread. :) And yes, I'm not a science writer (ex-archaeologist turned travel writer). But the enthusiasm, which is real, is what seemed to make it go viral on Twitter. I hope I stayed on the side of being engaging rather than shamelessly clickbaiting, but - yeah, slippery slope. Nevertheless, the whole research project is incredible, and I was lucky enough to have the lead scientist weigh in, in the comments. (The comments were spectacular and I'm very grateful for that.)
The reality and the science is very clear. What you're saying is that science should be adjusted to take into account people's feelings.

That is not science.

And it's only being made more ridiculous when the proponents for the fuzziness of the concept of what a women is also insist that there are a multitude more genders and that you can change between them on the fly several times a day.
If you wait until you’re “ready” it will never happen.

There are definitely bad times. But many of the things you mention contradict each other?

Can I afford children? Get a well paying job. Well paying jobs require more hours. That means you have less time to dedicate to your kids.

Realistically, unless you have at least $500,000 saved up, you’re taking a financial gamble having kids.

If they have serious medical issues, any amount of money could be wiped out.

I’d argue there are probably too many people who should be having kids not having kids, than people who shouldn’t be having kids having kids.

Both are obviously happening. And in probably biased because I know so many childless software engineers who make six figures.

But there really, really never is a good time.

Solara failed purely because cost for the competition dropped well below theirs. It was an honest business failure, like many others; and ultimately good news for the rest of us. They burned through $1/2 billion. Nukes always burn much more; US subsidies are more, every year, for equal value in the end.

Harping on Solara only calls attention to nukes' overwhelmingly worse performance. Nukes are "demonized" because they cost overwhelming more than alternatives.
I would be interested to hear your non-editorialized argument without the symbolism.

YouTube is a precursor to TikTok and for the most part offers the same functionality (organizing and distributing media to billions of people). YouTube has existed for 17 years and is not lacking in uploads by talented musicians, singers, and bands. Since the two companies are not that different and both serve billions of people, there's already 17 years of proof against your argument. Also, Justin Bieber would not exist without the record labels. He very likely would have faded out of the consciousness of the masses a few years after his e-fame.

>The music industry is growing because independent musicians are finally figuring out how to navigate it without any need for those traditional industry services.

Uploading music to YouTube or TikTok is not "navigating" the industry. As easy as it is to upload content, it's just as easy to be forgotten. There's countless other people competing for eyeballs on those platforms.

The record labels provide administrative resources, recording/audio engineering, distribution/merchandise, legal, booking/touring, management, public relations, industry contacts, and probably more. Tackling that workload (if popular) without outside support does not seem possible.

Also, the record labels exist to serve the masses. They always have, and always will. I don't see a huge demand for the style of music independent artists create. If there was such a demand, the record labels would capture it. They exist to make a profit, and aren't dumb. They don't hold the little guy back, it's the little guy who doesn't understand they are competing in a (wrong) market that isn't interested in their product.

I grew up hating the RIAA. I used to spend time reading articles about how awful the RIAA was as a budding musician. Now that I'm older, I'm sad to see what they represent disappear. They were the foundation that the pinnacle of American culture was built off of in the 60s-90s. Their gate offered quality at the cost of quantity. What's happening now, IMO, is that the market is dividing more and more every year. More bands that fulfill the needs of fewer people. This trend is not sustainable in the long run, especially for the musicians.
My assumption is that there are people out there who do the calculations of storing and shipping (with internal or external logistics) vs lean/JIT

But those calculations may have some assumptions about service and manufacturing availability

However I'm not one of those people, I'm guessing someone else knows better than me
They'll come back eventually. Everyone who becomes big on the internet has the problem of not being able to disconnect from it's commenters. It goes against our nature even because real humans don't talk like that.

You eventually learn that these are ignorant people commenting because they don't know any better - and the sea of opinions doesn't matter. Either you let them hold you against your will or you just do what you want. It's a hill anyone has to climb.
Yeah well most software developers, just like most people, would rather engage in warfare with their fellow working-class man than the man, which is unfortunate because that should be everyone's target - not one another. We should be asking ourselves how can we write software the frees us from the tyranny of government, and instead helps us to foster self-reliant, communities of support and mutual-aid, which serve the best interests of those who participate in them.

These are the tenants of anarcho-communism and FOSS - not sticking it to Russia and cheering on the dumping of weapons into a war zone...
OP here. The reason I believe it is more interesting than fan-fiction is that it answers the question of "how could nuclear weapons be used in this conflict?". Since the day it started there have been various escalations [1][2][3] of threats of the use of nuclear weapons, but never an explanation of how we could get from where we are now to a point where they were actually used. My imagination failed me when I tried to think of any plausible scenario. This hypothetical scenario fills that gap for me and demonstrates how there need not necessarily even be any intent on either side to use these weapons.

It's true that in order to also fill that gap in your mind it must be plausible to you too. I don't know if it helps to know this comes from an organisation of experts whose job it is to think about this kind of thing all the time. In any case, I think this kind of speculation is necessary in order for the news we have seen about nuclear threats to have any meaning. Otherwise, it's a bit like hearing that Russia would like to crash the moon into Europe. Ok perhaps, but how could that be done? This article attempts to give an answer.

The alternative (advertising) is not better.

Advertising also excludes everyone except a tiny minority (the advertisers) who are allowed to call the shots because they’re paying the bills.
My wife wanted to do a home birth. The fact she was over 35 made that not an option. So things happen at 35.
That’s not how market prices are generally set. Competition and demand keep them low. It might happen the way you describe sometimes but it’s far from a guarantee.
> I was thinking that you'd actually ask out people you're attracted to.

At that point, you're not doing "rejection therapy", you're just asking people out.

> Why would you be nervous to be rejected by someone you wouldn't actually want to date and thus weren't invested in the answer?

The premise behind rejection therapy is that some people do feel intense anxiety about being rejected even in cases where the stakes are low like this, and deliberately seeking rejection is essentially exposure therapy to get over that.
Definitely not intending to shill crypto (on HN of all places), but it seems like a good (as good as it gets, possibly) use case for anonymous – zero-knowledge – cryptocurrency transactions.
While I didn't downvote the above, I don't think downvoters are proving the GP's point, so much as disagreeing with the GP's assertion that there's some agenda behind it all (e.g. 'pro-Pentagon', whatever that means). It is trivial to search for Reddit threads about any given hot topic (trans rights in sports, the war in Ukraine) and see a ton of comments from unbanned users that dissent from the liberal orthodoxy (or whatever one thinks is that totalizing force that is 'behind it all').

There's no agenda behind Reddit. The reality is much simpler. You get enough people together to discuss, you give them upvote/downvote tools, you weight things based on those upvotes/downvotes, and you'll find yourself witnessing the opinions of a meta-mind driven by whatever the majority opinions are of the audience of a particular discussion. The deeper into the discussion you go (e.g. sorting by upvotes), the more you'll learn about the dimensionality of the opinions of subpopulations of the audience.

You'll also witness people attempting to, successfully or unsuccessfuly, manipulate the system and give themselves outsized voices, but those efforts are not nearly as totalizing as people describe. It's too easy to counter the "If you say X you'll be banned from reddit!" opinions with simple google searches of reddit topics that are full of people saying X.

I've been participating in online discussions since Usenet days. While the modern systems are more efficient with the whole idea of downvotes effectively silencing someone without requiring rebuttal, the overall pattern has been that the membership of a particular forum will ultimately marginalize people with opinions found abhorrent by the majority.
Maybe there's some configuration magic you can do, but I don't think I've ever seen decent font rendering on a Linux distro out of the box.

It's one of the biggest reasons I've never switched to desktop Linux, and I'm not even one of those super picky people who talk about the intricacies of typefaces all day.
Agree with you completely - hooks really aren't magical at all. The only thing that's "magical" is that React takes hook data and embeds it somewhere in the component instance behind the scene.. something that also necessarily must happen with class components. The state has to live somewhere.
Yeah, Mozilla prime would be nice.

I don’t even use half of what amazon prime offers, but it feels like much better value for money to me.
the trick is that landlords and property owners are not some closely linked cartel but are viciously competitive, so if everyone spends enough effort it can eventually cause a stabilization or even drop in prices.
It so irritates me to see the "Amazon doubles salary" argument. Amazon didn't double the total package, they just reapportioned it to compensate for less expected stock profit.
That was my first question as well. Guess they can’t deal with the tax implications?
Upvoting this merely because I love reading all the stories people have about these amazing animals.

Of course it isn't good that the warranty is being voided, but as a matter of contract this particular clause seems very logical. For the consumer it is good to know when you are being provided a third-party service/app that could void a warranty, and a clause like this makes the third-party provider liable for non-disclosure of the risks.
Regarding flat - theme movement… it was iOS7 that my daughter 3 was happily able to use her new iPad running iOS6 when I set her up and she could press play on her show. Then one morning we had her in the stroller and taking a walk and I handed her upgraded to ios7 iPad… it was instant tears she couldn’t figure it out… just to get the walk started I pressed the play button for her after many tears… later on during the walk her show ended and in her frustration at not being able to find the play button she raged on the iPad … that iPad is no more… IMO following that experience the flat movement was really bad for usability… driven by a form over function that I’ve seen harm younger and older people alike… my then 92 year old grandfather I remember also seriously struggling with ios7 compared to 6… just my observations… but yeah flat looks better…
But we’re nowhere near capacity in terms of food production. Not even close. Few countries are seriously even trying to maximize food production.

It's a frustrating read from a ML perspective, because of the ethics of it.
I'll never stop finding it hilarious that the very first step of the "Reddit crackdown" was the subreddit fatpeoplehate. They left up all the subreddits about abusing women, people getting murdered, revenge porn, outright racism and targeted harassment groups. But making fun of fat people? Gotta stomp that right out.
Just to leave a stake in the sand here for future reference, I'm sure they will introduce subscriber-only content at some point.
Loudoun County had the highest median income in the country long before it became data center central. A combination of old money in the rural part of the county, high income professionals in the eastern part (traditionally driven by the economy surrounding the federal government but more diverse these days) and a relatively small low income population.

While the county gives tax breaks to the data centers themselves to encourage their development they are greatly out weighed by the property tax revenue generated by the data centers. In 2021 Loudoun County brought in $424 million in property taxes on the equipment in data centers. The county considers the lack of associated employment another feature of the data centers because the number of county residents needing services doesn't significantly increase offsetting the property tax revenue. When your FY22 school system operating budget is $1.493 billion you don't want a lot of people with kids moving in.
That's all well but I actually preferred the previous style of the MDN Docs website.
There are surprisingly few children in foster care eligible for adoption. I’ve looked into this. Foster care is temporary care, and many children “in the system” are staying with family.
Well, there's a reason a screening EKG and sometimes periodic monitoring is recommended for people taking stimulants. There seems to be a general medical opinion that stimulants tax an already-taxed heart. It seems more ambiguous for people with healthy hearts. And given that obesity and drug addiction are common consequences of untreated ADHD, even if they are mildly cardiotoxic, they may still reduce the risk of heart disease when properly prescribed. (I'm no doctor, FWIW.)

Okay, so you wouldn't hire anyone who produces less than minimum wage. What if a teen wants to learn about your profession and is willing to work, but wouldn't really contribute or produce that much?

If there was no exception to hiring people who are financial dependents you wouldn't be able to hire on such a person for a small rate. You'd either have to overpay, discouraging you from hiring them, or not hire them because you couldn't justify the expense.

Perhaps such labor is uncommon in your profession, but there are many professions where it is common. The kid at the mechanic's who answers phones and gets things for people may not actually be all that valuable compared to a wage high enough for two people to live off of. The job may be really valuable to the kid though giving experience and a bit of money.
You are designing a "prefix code".
It is a collection of strings of button presses
such as {A, BA, BBAA, BBABA, BBB, ...}.
Each string maps to an action.

Ideally no string is a prefix of another string.
Even more ideally any infinite sequence of As and Bs
can be decoded into a sequence of actions.
The theory is just supply and demand, which is how prices are determined in a competitive market. If you give everyone $20k, would you expect grocery stores to raise the price of bananas to $20/lb? Probably not, since people can just go to the grocery store down the street. Now if everyone suddenly wanted to buy more bananas with their new cash that would have an effect, but that’s how markets are supposed to work.

In practice it probably depends on a lot of factors and would need empirical studies.
The anchor you're looking for is the median wage. In the US, the minimum wage tends to be around 35-45% of the median wage, and is mostly harmless to employment. In Chile, it hovers around 65% and the effects are more significant, while the distributional effects seem to be exhausted:

https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/ilr.12007

https://take-profit.org/en/statistics/wages/chile/

Half the median wage is obviously the simplest answer, but some studies have suggested other numbers.

Now you're probably wondering: what does the median wage have to do with a "level of living"? It's simply the presently existing normal "level of living"! The median wage reflects various aspects of the local economy, and is responsive to things like housing prices.
Generally, I've been of the opinion of "use it or lose it" AND that natural > artificial... meaning that I think less of "pills" and more of exercising.
