When I'm feeling brave, curious, calm, not anxious, and generous with my time, I'll click on "comments". This doesn't happen very often. I try to leave self-contained comments that add to the asynchronous conversation (collection of thoughts around the topic, anyway), understanding that what I submit will be here indefinitely and is searchable. Hacker News is the only digital social media platform I participate in on a regular basis, and even then I try to let some days pass between engagement. My reaction to spending time on Facebook and Twitter and Reddit was anxiety, so I've gone back to mostly reading books to learn from other people, sometimes inspired by HN comments--thank you all!

I appreciate the friction that limits runaway back-and-forth conversations with internet strangers; it promotes in me more consideration of what people are writing here, because I am more free to notice what I'm feeling and decide what to do next.
Wow, do people actually still use sourceforge? I found it to be really clunky and missing features compared to github or gitlab or something.
I have been using emacs and org-mode for years now, but org-roam was a bit tedious and time consuming to set up correctly. I now use Logseq, and it's really great (especially the flashcard feature). I wish it had an emacs mode though.

1st is definitely true. I have deleted the apps from my phone but it is on my laptop which I keep accessing these sites.

> This is called the Genetic Fallacy

I'm well aware of the Genetic Fallacy. The post I was responding to was falsely attributing the quote to other sources. "Hey, somebody else said that" is relevant information. Discussion of fallacies is also largely worthless in ordinary conversation since we aren't actually making formal deductive arguments. It is completely reasonable for people to reason through other means than pure deductive logic.

And further, my post did not stop there.

It is not Voltaire's rule of thumb. We just discussed this.
I really like the app. To be honest the sponsor message didn't bother me that much, but it's real that it's there for several seconds. Is it intentional or is it loading the app?
So yes this is a big issue.

What we are actually waiting for the fix?

Right now its really hard for alternative clients to support E2E because they are forced to build the whole encryption stack up.

As a consequence the alternative clients have just not matured and have mostly lost steam.

The next gen of matrix mainline will be moving to a Rust based library stack that has an explicit goal of making straight forward bindings for 3rd party clients via a mostly standard C library interface (so yay for elisp, python, c++ etc) and of course the Rust libraries can be deployed to wasm for web and javascript.

I think we'll get a lot more mature clients that will be more useful, because yeah... the current matrix mainline client has "modern" disease pretty bad.
That’s not actually what the law does though. It says:

> A FERTILIZED EGG, EMBRYO, OR FETUS DOES NOT HAVE INDEPENDENT OR DERIVATIVE RIGHTS UNDER THE LAWS OF THIS STATE

There is no limitation to viability. The defenses I’ve seen of the law (e.g. Politifact’s) mistakenly assume that Roe makes it impermissible to abort fetuses in the third trimester, which is incorrect.
Point taken, I do agree with you that it’s probably best to stay on topic in these kinds of posts.
Printers with repairable hardware: refurbished hacks to optimize the office
Yeah on xorg it just draws a window on top of the terminal. It is a hack but one that works pretty well, it also supports framebuffer and supposedly even Windows.

In fact many other terminal tools use w3m-img for image display on the terminal. Though both sixel and kitty protocols are nicer (kitty being as close to ideal as it gets), they're unfortunately not as widely supported.
Coherence: the quality of being logical and consistent.

Note that "coherence" and "definition" are two different concepts. Definition may be required, but is not sufficient, to achieve coherence.

Also note that the definition of eurodollar is only a small part of the document. I was commenting about the overall document, and never said anything about the definition of eurodollar.

There has been some fascinating work on human canine coevolution over the past years - I read a paper (sorry can't locate it now) that claimed that humans developed such distinct pupils due to it being so useful to survival for dogs to be able to see which direction a human is looking, for example in a hunting context. That one blew my mind.
Couldn't you just gate the comparison with compiler flags and define corresponding make targets? Flags could also identify the VCS and how the old file should be obtained.

I’m puzzled the above comment is being downvoted. Wild feline species are often social for groups of females, and solitary for males. They’re instinctual rather than (like us) cultural animals - it’s entirely possible that male and female domestic cats exhibit different types of social intelligence and playfulness with respect to each other and to humans, and as I said, my (five!) do.

> you’ve misgendered me the same as if you’d referred to a transwomen as he.

I think it's more analogous to referring to a transwoman as "they", which I also do. "They" does not gender you at all, so it can't misgender you. I don't think you (or anyone else be they cisgender or transgender) have a right be referred to by your gender, whether you prefer it or not. I think that's different to be referred to by a gender you consider worng. In that case someone is actively labelling you as a gender. By calling you "they" I'm saying I think you're genderless, whereas by calling someone "he" I think you are saying you think they're male.

If you had a strong preference to be referred to by your gender then I probably would make an effort to do that, but I don't think you are owed that (to be honest I wish trans people weren't so hung up on pronouns too - I think it's silly to be so fussy about language - but I have seen cases where they're used maliciously so I can somewhat understand why they are).
Why I'm turning my home into a virtual power plant
I'm currently using a notebook, but I find it very limiting in the amount of information you can write down. It becomes rather difficult to maintain structure or add text later on. Pen and paper works best for quick, abstract notes in my experience.
And yet, you can't blame one for trying. Who gives a shit about what some random grey beard person on the Internet wants - if you don't want to get contacted, do not leave artifacts behind :)
If available and priced attractively I would very much buy this card. I never buy top of the line graphics cards but the equivalent of 1060-1070 works just fine for my needs. And I bet that there are enough people all over the world in the same position. I think it is a competition assuming they do not fold.

Also it is a startup. If they do not go down for one or another reason nothing precludes them from going higher end given a time and favorable market.
Lately any thing that i drink (from beer to wine) increases my heart rate to 100bpm. not sure if thats good for my health.
I believe it's required if you want the white checkmark.
The first problem to solve would be getting a symmetric fiber connection to their home so they can actually upload at more than a highly volatile 5Mbps that is probably split amongst whole neighborhood. Second would be ipv6 address to not have to deal with CGNAT and make the ISP as dumb of a pipe as possible.
I wouldn’t rule out both.

> It makes far more sense to have a working government that goes "hey, we need to diversify this sector" and creates the proper incentives for capital to chase.

Except governments have no incentive to look at such opportunities in advances.

A capitalist company has a profit motive to look at everything that can go wrong, and react accordingly and quickly.

See the MTT GPU as an example of such response: they bought PowerVR when it made sense to.

Now GPUs are in shortage because there are priced too low, because they have only 2 manufacturers who don't want to get a bad reputation of "predatory pricing".

New entrants may care less, and even a GPU that's only competitive to the 1070 may sell if it's more easily available.

I do not think a bailout of PowerVR would have had such results. It may also have come with strings attached, reducing the flexibility needed.
I am fully work from home now. I went into the office briefly and front desk person stopped me and didn't recognize me. Had a whole conversation and update about how I was breaking rules by wearing only a 2 ply mask. That i should be wearing 3 ply or more. Hadn't seen them in 2 years because of covid. They had no idea who I was.

In terms of my work being recognized? Also a big no.
Interesting, they use a Reliability Score range of 0 to 64 and a Bias Score range of -42 to +42.

Easy to adjust reading once I knew that, but I'm curious why they don't normalize them both to something more commonly seen like 0 to 100 or -10 to +10?
It's good to know the system I'm talking about is mostly dead; the committee of unknown engineers always felt bonkers to me. That being said, a ratio of 1:5 or 1:6 of bad incentives at promo committees still sounds pretty suboptimal to me — when I was on calibration committees at FB, it was super rare for me to come away with the feeling that the wrong thing was being incentivized or rewarded at an engineering level (oh boy was product management a different story, but that's a different post). There were a couple times where I disagreed with an outcome, but that was like 1:150 or better.

> This essay was somewhat high on opinion, somewhat low on evidence

That's putting it mildly. It's littered with straw men and other logical fallacies.

He asserts, without any proof (because it's a faulty generalization that can't be proven), 'when someone calls a statement "x-ist," they're also implicitly saying that this is the end of the discussion'. He then wastes a bunch of time explaining the implications of his straw man.
That's what's pretty good about the status quo in the UK with regard to this app: as the article states, it is not legally a speed camera and can't be used for speeding fines but the police can use the uploaded evidence to prosecute dangerous driving offences.
This is the alternative approach to coming across some early success, this is a difficult route but as you become more self-ware and confident, maybe you can be more decisive? Maybe iteration is the key here too? Setbacks and failures scare me here but that is something to learn and get better at perhaps.

Another question here would be, did you find yourself becoming more decisive with time over certain topics? what helped in becoming so? (I have found myself to very less opinionated about things, that makes this process really tough)
Without closures it's a stretch, but yes I would say you can write in a functional style in basically any language.
> The average income here is several sigmas right of what most people make.

That's exactly the kinds of elitist bullshit that stinks up the HN comments so often. You have no information at all on the average income here; nor any idea on who all reads/writes on HN. The major difference with reddit is the entitled attitude, not skills/income/intelligence as so many assume.

HN is a circle jerk.
This is exactly the core issue of the paper, and a lot of inference is done on the side of the authors, which they correctly state and discuss. The intro + discussion is far better and much more insightful than the businessinsider article linked here.

* We first conducted a pilot study using highly targeted keyword searches in commercial and academic Chinese-language scientific databases. These searches and the papers they uncovered are presented in Appendix 1. We qualitatively analyzed and classified the resulting 683 papers, during which we developed a criterion for problematic Brain Death Declaration (BDD), and therefore a probable DDR violation.*

We define as problematic any BDD in which the report states that the donor was intubated after the declaration of brain death, and/or the donor was intubated immediately before organ procurement, as part of the procurement operation, or the donor was ventilated by face mask only.

And then later in the discussion:

* The complete list of these 71 papers and excerpts with problematic BDD are in Appendix 2. Examples include:*

“The heart donor was a brain trauma patient. By the time of heart procurement, breathing had ceased. Endotracheal intubation was performed and artificial respiration [established]. The heart beat well. The donor heart was procured …”43

“The donor was intravenously injected with heparin 3mg/kg 1h before the operation… The heartbeat was weak and the myocardium was purple. After assisted ventilation through tracheal intubation, the myocardium turned red and the heartbeat turned strong… The donor heart was extracted with an incision from the 4th intercostal sternum… This incision is a good choice for field operation where the sternum cannot be sawed open without power.”44

“After donor brain death, tracheal intubation was performed as soon as possible for artificial ventilation. The chest was opened quickly, and the ascending aorta and pulmonary artery were infused with cold cardioplegia…”45

“After the donor was confirmed brain dead the trachea was intubated, artificial respiration was established, rapid median sternal incision…”46

“2.1 Obtaining and protecting the donor organs. After the donor's whole body is heparinized, donor is supine, endotracheal intubation is performed through the mouth, and the anesthesiologist intermittently gives oxygen to the lungs by manual balloon pressure. Split the breastbone in the middle.…”47 [0]

I'm a bit shocked that the vast majority of commenters in this thread seem to have at best skimmed the article then went to comment some really ill-informed opinions.

You sound like you found it more important that the source of the claim be found, than the conclusion of those resources not being as easily available. Barring the idea that anyone can look at facts and come to an conclusion of their own instead if it always needing to be a quote. Weird take.
If you and one neighbor form a group, why should your group-of-two be entitled to any more free speech rights than those the two of you possessed before forming a group, and still individually possess after forming the group?

Groups are entitled to greater-than-zero rights, in order to support their accomplishing their purpose in an efficient manner, but I'm curious why they should be owed person-equivalent rights?

Ask HN: What Happened to Airbnb Pricing?
I recall back when AirBnB was growing (circa 2013-2015 in my mind) the appeal was primarily price. Yes, there were conveniences around having an individual place, etc, but I recall most AirBnBs being priced well below hotels of roughly equal quality.

When I look now, it is often cheaper to stay in a hotel than an AirBnB of roughly equal quality, sometimes significantly so. This pattern has held in at least 10 major/minor US cities I’ve used over at least the past year.

What economic forces are at work to cause this?
> No the Chinese military or police would not stand any chance against the true popular will of the Chinese, not for a second.

You might reconsider that after reading about the Gwangju uprising https://www.datasecretslox.com/index.php/topic,3506.0.html?P...

TL;DR: an entire province's will was to oust the government, it ended in a massacre.

Without examples of popular will causing an overthrow of an established, well-organized authoritarian state, I'm going to remain unconvinced that it's possible, or that there's any meaningful accountability to the people from the government - after all, who'll judge or stop them unless they implode?

> they by and large if not support at least tolerate their state,

Of course they are rational, like it's rational to submit yourself to an overwhelming power you can't fight, rather than die trying. That doesn't mean that it's not a problem that would benefit from external help. Quite the contrary, just ask the people who lost their organs.

I take issue with the idea that a victimized society is responsible for its own state or that it can pull itself by the boot straps only if it wanted. If it was true, we would not have had totalitarian states at all.

I bet that is little consolation for non-PoC victims of bad drug policy.

Your statements come across as suggesting that the non-PoC experience doesn't matter, since a random PoC has it worse. I hope that it wasn't intentional.
By reported, do you mean buried the lede? There was an obvious bias then, and this Atlantic piece proves there's still a bias now. A true and legit Democracy requires a proper and bias-less Fourth Estate. We're a long way from that ideal. That's clear, yes?

This oh-so subtle slight of hand type of disinformation might be palatable - and comfortable if it plays to your bias - but it's still a disservice to any / all warnings we've gotten from the greats (e.g., Orwell).

The fact you don't see the problem is inductive of The Problem. Blinders don't change what's true.
I'm saying I think you're genderless, whereas by calling someone "he" I think you are saying you think they're male.

Right. As it turns out, I identify as male not genderless. But this is not something you are obligated to honor under threat of being fired for some reason.
Doesn't look like they've added any features with the GTK4 build, just from scrolling through the recent commit history. Much like a lot of these recent GTK4/Libadwaita apps, it looks like they're just maintaining feature parity with the old version while removing the flexibility the older versions had (eg. more packaging options, better customization, none of the reviled "flat button" nonsense, more accessibility options for people with vision impairments, etc).

Kinda annoying, but at least the writing is on the wall that I need to find a new Matrix client.
I tried Joplin, but sync from desktop to mobile happens on a fixed interval instead of syncing automatically when you make changes. That was a blocker for me because a lot of basic use cases involve switching between devices:

- Create a workout on my laptop, then walk to the back yard and follow it on my phone while taking additional notes.

- Create a packing checklist for a trip on my desktop, then walk around the house with the list in my hand, checking off what I have already so I know what I need to buy.

- Scan a tax form to my Taxes notebook on my phone and then go back to my laptop where I'm using Turbotax.

Evernote has worked for these use cases for a long time.

There are definitely waste concerns. There are a number of other problems, though most have to do with getting up and running.

Thorium is a by-product of rare-earth mineral mining. It is still radioactive, and it is also subject to all the regulatory red tape of handling any kind of radioactive material.

Rare-earth mineral mining is extraordinarily destructive to the environment. When you read about rare-earth mineral mining, you should think "strip mining" because that is generally how it's done. China does it because they don't care at all about the environment, they care about cornering the market.

Thorium reactors still include uranium to make them work. It may take eight years to exhaust the fuel, but you still have a pile of spent radioactive material that needs to go somewhere, and no one has solved that problem satisfactorily, which is bigger than the NIMBY issue of where the reactor goes in the first place.

Ask HN: How to progress in career as a Software Developer with ADHD?
I have a decent job but I aim to get into FAANG or maybe work for a big startup or just ambitious folks. But my ADHD, doesn't allow me to focus on stuff that I don't find fun.

I can work on coding projects in a hyperfocus state for hours if I find it interesting. That is one of my strengths I would say.

Doing Leetcode religiously though, not so much.
