> Console gaming monitors also set a minimum bar of supporting things like 120hz refresh rates, HDR, enhanced VRR ranges, and lower input+processing+output lag. It's disingenuous to blanket assign any cost difference between a specialized product and a low end product to money made from ads. Yes, ads help subsidize low end TVs but it's nowhere near offsetting most of the overall cost.

That's true, but those are features you'll want anyway. You'll want 24-120Hz VRR to watch both cinematic films and content like Gemini at the appropriate framerate, you'll want proper HDR support to get a cinema-like movie quality, and you'll want reduced input lag for when you connect your gaming console to it.

The NVIDIA Shield is actually perfectly ad-free in my experience (I've got the Shield 2019 non-pro), but the recent Android update forced some ads on the new Google TV launcher (luckily you can disable that just fine). I'm not sure what you mean regarding ads otherwise.

> The real best way to avoid this is disable it in the settings and filter the device on your network then use something like a Shield TV for the smarts

That's actually a bad recommendation, because then you'll still have to deal with the painfully slow startup times of a smart TV whenever you want to watch content and the TV actually modifying the image (most cheaper TVs don't offer a mode that avoids sharpening/softening/interpolating/color correcting/etc). And regular TVs often don't allow color calibration with an external probe either.
Nice. I’ve been trying to only buy my clothes from brands that are sustainable. The quality of clothes has been great too.

https://www.fairify.io/en/brands/ has been a great help finding sustainable brands. A bit sad Levi’s is only a C though, I like their jeans.
Intelligence is generally correlated with the size of their vocabulary thought.

This is obliviously just a rule of thumb but if you take a pool of 100 well spoken individuals and 100 ... Not well spoken and then give them all some kind of intelligence test, the first group will definitely score significantly higher then the latter.

I’m a high school English teacher. What you’re saying seems mostly right - but, anecdotally of course, the trend has been made more severe. Their ability to engage with in-person socialization is very obviously impaired, and their pre-existing tendency to snack on social media is compulsive for a whole bunch of them.

At a much higher level than I’ve ever seen, kids will choose swiping over talking with their friends who are sitting right next to them.

It’s getting better, but - man - it was bad when we first returned from distance learning.
Unless substantial price increase, I don't see this changing behavior much. Third world landfills will have slightly more durable textiles with better stitching.
Maybe substitute "improvement" for "justice"? I'd rather be in the bottom 5% than the middle 50, given better health and comfort in absolute terms. That doesn't excuse injustice and inequality(!) but the absolutes matter, esp. given the context of parent's "things are just bad and getting worse" comment.

Your experience is pretty much on point. If you can meet your team in person, do so. Being able to work remotely requires a lot of autonomy and confidence in general.

Why do you find it more disgusting than the behaviour it is calling out? I think there's a moral imperative to challenge bad behaviour and satire is an effective method.

I've always thought it'd be a bit cheeky to start a band and name the first three albums "Self-Titled", "Eponymous"[0], and give the third album the name of the band.

Fortunately, I lack any amount of musical talent, so this will never happen.

I do not think the soap is such a factor.

The tabs I use are environmental friendly. I.e. no phosphates, no palm oil, no chlorine. The wrapper dissolves in the machine (an algae-based polymer similar to what is used for capsules to deliver meds).

This, many times over. Id3 tags are one thing but all decent classical record labels (most of whom have always been drm-free) like Hyperion or Naxos give you a pdf cd jewel case booklet. I've got recordings of many friends and it's always a pleasure to see their names in this. I don't use streaming services and one of the unexpected joys of iTunes is that the album art can contain a pdf with a cover image. The rest of the UI mostly assumes that you're listening to non-classical music though. I'd love to able to search for e.g. "Victoria's Requiem" and get albums with sensible names, even if they're in Latin, seemlessly grouped by performance.

Another factor may be that many people that teens look up to today talk openly about mental health problems, to the point that now it seems almost trendy to struggle with mental health. Perhaps this encourages teens to let their mental health deteriorate for attention, which is the social currency of today’s society. Remember they are not entirely rational beings.
There's exactly one government on earth currently invested in pushing the notion that Ukraine isn't a democracy, and boy it's been upset since their bought puppet they provided special forces protection and asylum too was ousted from power because his people didn't want to be sold out to Russia.

And mysteriously your only argument is a talking point about how his removal wasn't democratic, speaking nothing of anything which happened since then.

I have a Wordpress.com blog at https://blog.cryptographyengineering.com. I switched there from Blogger. Moving all that content took me most of a summer (part time) even with the Blogger import tooling, and will be much harder if I have to go to some markdown tool. This is made worse due to the fact that my site contains finicky images and formatting and (some) LaTeX math. I know a move to a static site is possible but I absolutely dread having to do this again. The transition cost for existing content (and comments!) is really high.

I chose Wordpress.com because (despite the fact that security people make fun of Wordpress) it’s full-featured and could handle my usage for about $100/yr. Now it’ll apparently be $180, which is an annoying surprise price increase. But the real annoyance is 100,000 visits per month for the paid plan: I’ve had months that easily blow past this limit (due to HN hugs) and I genuinely don’t know what will happen to the site if this happens in the future. That limit is extremely problematic and makes me wonder if the company is entering a terminal decline.

You might find something suitable there, from what I recall there was some disagreement about whether there is or not depending on what the scope is of what you want to achieve.
Adding to the list:

There are two well-known Avishai Cohens, both jazz musicians (so you can't disambiguate on the broader genre), both from Israel (so you can't disambiguate on country of origin), but luckily they do play different instruments (bass and trumpet).

The Australian post-rock/shoegazeish band The Dead Sea https://www.discogs.com/artist/1450625-The-Dead-Sea released a self-titled EP with 3 tracks in 2006.

2009 they released a full self-titled album (only 1 song from the EP featured on it).

I can't even find the "second" release on discogs.

Both were self-released, so no way to disambiguate on ISMN or record label/publisher.

So you'd have to disambiguate only on the year of release, or define what demarcates an EP from a full album and mark them as such (there are some competing definitions out there, since it became less clear after the introduction of the CD, and now digital, but even back then you had complections like maxi singles and mini-LPs, IIRC).

We're also almost completely remote. I still find it fun to go to the office 2-3 times a week. Yeah, it's a 40 minute commute, sitting in the train and listening to podcasts (or biking in the summer). In the office I typically have my own room without distractions, the company orders lunch and I get to be somewhere else than home every now and then.

I also have a great remote setup at home. A room, with a fast desktop computer and all. Still changing the location few times a week clears my head somehow...

This is all part of a larger phenomenon I like to call the "Amazon syndrome".

The quality standard for products seems to be incredibly low nowadays. I see people happily buying whatever cheap Chinese junk Amazon dropshippers sell, for a "low" price that's usually 4-5x the price of the exact same item on AliExpress. Reviews are overwhelmingly positive because most people don't care about actual specs or functionality and give 5 stars as long as it's cheap and it works, even when the product is marked up by the dropshipper and leaves a lot to be desired.

Reputable brands that used to make quality products now need to compete on price in a sea of "good enough" garbage, and many of them choose to do so by outsourcing manufacturing to the same Chinese factories that make the no-name stuff. Midrange products disappeared entirely and now the choice is between disposable landfill and ridiculously expensive high-end items.

As someonce in a Reddit thread (?) once said: "The product that retails for $500 costs $5 more to manufacture than the low-end equivalent that sells for $20. If you try to find a middle ground and spend $100, you end up with the $20 product in a nice box."

Leave behind all the peeking at user data and dark business models, and just do and sell what you're good at? Make hardware and software that users (and companies) can trust and build on? Products that are not tethered by the manufacturer for business strategic reasons? Thanks.

If not, perhaps there should be laws. Because if the market starts working against the interest of the consumer, then we have a problem.

Frameworks helps developers to move in the right direction, and that is a good thing, however when you have used a framework long enough you start seeing the cracks.

Frameworks solves a general problem, you on the other hand has a specific problem. To be able to accommodate your specific problem and everyone else specific problems frameworks has tendency to heavily rely on magic.

* magic classes - using PHP magic methods for everything, the actual class is usually empty and things happening elsewhere.

* magic files - put a file with the correct name in folder somewhere and things happen

* magic configuration - put a hard coded string in some config file and you change the entire behaviour of the app.

* magic layers - if you follow the execution path with the debugger you spend the majority of time circling around in different layers and very little time in your own code.

All of these things are considered bad practice when doing it in your own code, but for some bizarre reason it is considered good practice in frameworks.

My spouse is into having things very, very clean (from my perspective, at least). When we moved in together (over a decade ago) we negotiated household duties - basically wrote them all out and ranked them by how much we hated doing them, then optimized the division of labor to achieve least total pain…

Here’s the thing - in that process we found fundamental disagreements on what’s important to clean up in the first place. Life’s too short to make beds… Rooms have doors for a reason… listing out what we each expected really helped launch a conversation about compromise about doing things at all, as much as it did who would do things. I’m a lot cleaner now because I know exactly what she wants, and she’s a lot more flexible and accepting of my messes because she knows it’s not my default and I’m trying for her.

> With this block madness it turned from a "semantic publishing platform" to some lousy PowerPoint for the web.

But here you're wrong. There is now more semantic information available to content-transforming plugins, not less, thanks to the block editor.

The content is still stored as HTML in post_content (which they do to support exporting the content as HTML), but because of its annotations, you can get the entire block parse tree from a single function call, on the server side:

https://awhitepixel.com/blog/wordpress-gutenberg-access-pars...

So for the first time, the semantics of page content are exposed in a way that does not involve trying to parse chunks of HTML yourself (except the "classic editor" block if you want to parse into that).

You may have missed the fact that many countries / localities in fact did do lockdowns on and off for the last two years that did prevent childrend from seeing their peers in person outside of school. Couple that with the non-stop fearmongering by the media, and it's not an unreasonable assumption to make that many kids were probably kept at home and away from their peers, even between lockdowns.
This is a great point to which I don't really have an answer, just a question. Why do we define justice as everyone having the same (or roughly the same within certain thresholds)? I mean, I can totally see that everyone having more or less the same is a good thing. But that is not necessarily a just thing.

A related point is why are we seeing equality as something desirable? We don't even question it anymore. This is a rather new development in the last 400 years or so and came about after Europeans arrived at America and started interacting with the natives, which had this equality concept much more advanced than what was common in Europe at the time. This also leads to the recognition of differences between people. What does it mean for us to be equal? I run slower than you, should I carry the urgent message over the mountains because we're equal?

Sorry to just add questions, but I think they are important questions people don't usually ask.
We build with concrete and steel and 2x6 walls.

We use spray foam insulation and good materials for flooring and trim that won’t wear out tomorrow.

We build for about the same as it would cost to take an existing house; demo out all the stuff that doesn’t meet code, make it meet code, then put back all the good materials that won’t wear out tomorrow.

Trust me your big line items are still there when you refurbish something to meet codes; and governments aren’t going to fund projects that don’t meet code. That is before you even get to the discussion of what people actually want their finishes to be.

I was searching for the artist Urban Soul on Tidal to discover there's another artist called Urban Soul (I wanted the Roland Clark project) with albums by both mixed up together in the search result.

'Twas all in vain, since I wanted a particular remix of `Alright' — which I have on a vinyl promo less that a metre from where I am sitting (I can remember clear as day buying it more than 25 years ago) — which Tidal don't have. So I ended up listening to it on YouTube.
