I get your point better now, thanks for the clarification.

I agree we should try to improve things that can be improved, but I guess this example's extreme nature (international relocation) makes it difficult to have a nuanced talk about couples' intra-dynamics...
Every time I stumble across moreutils, I can’t understand what any of its tool do. Take all these for instance:

pee: tee standard input to pipes

sponge: soak up standard input and write to a file

ts: timestamp standard input

vidir: edit a directory in your text editor

vipe: insert a text editor into a pipe

zrun: automatically uncompress arguments to command

Wth do they do? What does any of this means? I know tee but have no idea what « tee stdin to pipes » would do
HN isn’t letting me reply, so using this one.

> This post sure sounds like you think they already aren't following the rules by hanging out side to side, having a conversation for an extended period of time.
If that's not what you meant, that you're only talking about when someone tries to pass, then okay I guess we're not in disagreement here.

I wonder what you think “overtaking” means, in the context of not impeding traffic.

>And let's not forget that you also said:
>> Cyclists going side-by-side in a single-lane (per-direction) is violating the rules.
Which is only true on certain shapes of road,

You mean like “….why are groups of cyclists going in rows of two or three in a *narrow service road* (40 to 50 mph speed limit).”

> So I think any misunderstanding on my part is understandable and not purely my fault.

Oh, it’s absolutely your fault. Context is everything.
take this with a large amount of salt. Disulfiram reacts with a lot of stuff so it pops up on all kinds of screenings. Some people saw its activity against cancer, even covid but it never pans out
It's comments like this that probably result in people accusing of being pro-Russia.

You skip over annexation of Crimea and gas-rich parts of Ukraine, over Putin's rant how Ukraine shouldn't be a country, how all those new NATO countries don't have nukes stationed in them and the whole European NATO standing army is not larger than Russia's. And to top of it all, you think it's a complicated legal issue if a country that wasn't attacked or was about to attacks another one.
How are they sharing their code? At my company things are locked down so tightly that I can’t move code off of company computers. I would have to look at the code on one computer and type it into a computer of my own. Unless people are doing interviews on their company computer or the company is careless with their code, I’m not sure how someone would even share their work code.
Even if you dont believe in sgx, the nsa would still have to be in signal's servers somehow, in which case you are probably screwed anyways

Ask HN: Why does browser media always fail part-way?
I have the habit of watching various web videos in small chunks spread across the day.

When I come back to a video I get always get an error about media, network and failing and I have to reload the page to make it work.

I find it rather weird that the browser can't simply say "give me chunk K of this public video".

Youtube appears to work around this issue by auto reloading the page, so there seems to be a fundamental problem about videos.

What is happenning? and Why does this limitation exist?

That is wildly baffling. Not only Trump not using it, but does that mean the dozens upon dozens of popular figures around him who his fans also like, are mostly not using it either?

The SPAC stock is still holding strong snd it self making no sense day to day. It went up 7%+ on news Fox joined two weeks ago. The next day when this was found to be false. It didn’t even drop 1-2%.

Truth will fail no doubt. However all the SPAC, other investing and political insiders and the Trump family themselves still have a realistic shot of cashing out pretty well. Nothing close to if it was competently rolled out, but tens of millions to hundreds of millions going to many diff insiders is still a ton. Trump’s cash out should still be huge and would probably give him his largest cash stock pile ever (before it goes to pay debts off)
I'm not convinced. Historically you've been able to pick up British citizens at will but nothing much is forthcoming in return.

Well, let's see:

* More people obtained health insurance after receiving the letters than those who didn't.

* Among the people who received a letter, fewer people died than those who didn't.

* Since we're agreed that the study was properly randomized, there were no other differences between the treatment and control populations.

What conclusion are we to draw, if not that having health insurance prevents deaths?

Literally the only differences are that the treatment group got a letter, more of them purchased this thing which then existed called "health insurance" than in the control group, and fewer people in the treatment group died over the course of the study. Are you going to sit there and tell me that people who were already less likely to die went out and bought the thing that at the time of the study was called "health insurance" just because they got a letter? That doesn't pass the smell test.

Are you trying to tell me that health insurance is somehow different now than it was before? Also doesn't pass the smell test.

I am at a loss for what you are actually trying to say. Could you please just say it, rather than being oblique to the point of opacity about it?

Yes, but PulseAudio requires loading a module, authentication, and configuration of several files. It's more versatile I'm sure but if you just want something that works quickly, using netcat to forward from /dev/dsp seems simpler on your own network not connected to the internet. Using netcat has no fault tolerance, a temporary disconnection is likely to cause it to fail, but it's an easy way to get something working quickly, and for some people that might be good enough. Netcat may run on more platforms than PulseAudio does also, especially small embedded systems.

My good code are paid for and thus is owned by someone who is not me and can't be shared with a third party. The code that own is inherently bad as I want to create things as fast as possible without being bogged down by proper code writing etiquette.
Makes a lot of sense. I wonder if we will start to see more series hybrids or direct gearless clutched hybrids.
Obviously not all jobs are remote-compatible, and obviously you would not do apprenticeship entirely asynchronously.

Liveable is a subjective term, but water or air quality, or environmental footprint varies a great deal between countries. Cities consume most of the energy and produce most of the greenhouse gases for obvious reasons. Historically big cities became increasingly liveable, however my opinion is that we are at a turning point, in average big cities will become unliveable, some will improve slightly, and many will falter greatly. However urbanization will go on, people will continue to fill cities looking for opportunities, ironically climate change will even hasten this, eventually turning big cities into death traps.
Well certainly I agree that naming is important. It’s up there with cache consistency and off-by-one errors as one of the two most difficult problems in computer science.
I didn't downvote you but going from a structure prediction (which you get for ordered proteins) to functionality is not straightforward at all. How would you do it?

You could predict functionality based on homology with evolutionary related sequences, but they would work equally well for all proteins (ordered or not).
The best part around the comments, that they are written by people not involved or linked to Germany at all.

The nostalgia pendulum is real, but, but, in music and cars it seems there is no momentum after the 90s and the 90s fare worse than 80s and 70s and even 60s.

Back in the second part of the 90s we had already some 70-80s music revival nights. Plus groups like daft punk were already rediscovering 80s. Now it's 2020, how many 2000 and 2010 music revival nights are out there? just some 90s. Plus the usual 70 and 80.

Cars? nothing really new after the countach I am afraid. Even hypercars look like racing prototype class cars with a bit more refinement. The delta, the countach itself, the giulia gt, have been restomodded or redone. What modern cars are likely to deserve such treatment?

I don't think, this niche is necessarily kings & queens. I think it's people needing some kind of beacon, pointing for what should they aim with their life (even if they cannot realistically achieve it, at least not fully).

That's why we have huge libraries of biography books and millenia old stories of philosophers, heros and rulers.

Of course for some people such figure would be Ghandi and for some one of billioners (probably latter was always more appealing to the general public). Both are examples of extraordinary achievements in some area.

In highly religious society they would be probably replaced with saints & priests, in highly militarized by great strategists and war heroes.

If you dig deep enough, there will be probably some group telling stories, how exciting it was to be able to listen to some post stamps designer, who is considered local legend.
The spam scale problem should be solvable with a one-shot locally evaluated NN trained to classify behavior/tweets from their massive massive ground truth dataset. If it’s evaluated locally then I don’t see how scale is an issue.

I've seen no advocates of saying that individuals shouldn't be able to curate their own feeds, only that social media platforms shouldn't be restricting those feeds for them.

For instance, if you decide that you want a Twitter feed that excludes porn, gore, racism, and other objectionable content, then you absolutely should be able to exclude those (I'd reckon that that'd be a very sensible default). If I want to go observe the crazy bigoted things that fringe groups are spewing, or if I want to use Twitter just as an endless feed of porn, then that doesn't affect your ability to not see those things.

Likewise, I've not heard Musk propose banning any of his critics or opposing viewpoints (though I don't really follow his actions, so it's possible I've just missed them).

Forgive me, but I'm not sure why this is even a question.

Compliance comes first, because if you don't comply with legislation you most likely won't be in business for long.

So you then build on from that by designing your system to take compliance aspects into account.

If you do that, then the backup question no longer occurs, because your system design has taken into account the fact that (for example) GDPR "Right to be forgotten" exists, and so you will have ensured you have a mechanism in place to ensure the "forgotten" PII does not make its way into your backups.

There's no right to anything that people don't stand together to say they have a right to.

People shouldn't have to commute for hours so other people can live there because that impacts their health and opportunities for life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. If this is where the jobs are, there should be homes here as well.
I'm not really a fan of compensary activities, because the guilt is often a more effective control. I've seen people do weird things like donate away 100% of the bribes they take. It gets rid of the guilt, but not the impact.

I'd say just keep your meat consumption low and also donate $100 to tree planting every now and then.
Right. I should have clarified it’s unlikely to happen if you want to be hands off for years at a time. If that’s the goal the ideal state is to convert it to static.
As someone from a country with Royalty I can promise you most people do not care about them. The people that tend to care are foreigners. If there's a big event some subset of the population are interested in the celebrity sense but outside of that nobody cares.
I would be careful about this "honest conversation".

From what the commenter (giantg2) described, their mom sounds like someone who has pretty serious "attachment" issues (may not be the formal word for it), in the way she over-does her care and niceness. It seems like something that stems from a core wound deep inside, from her upbringing/environment/generation/etc.

From my experience, sometimes these honest conversations make the person even more hostile and freak out to insane degrees. Especially for an older generation, their understanding of love and the language around it will be basically set in stone. So being honest can often trigger them in ways we cannot predict.

Of course, not everyone is like that. But I would be very careful about this, because there's a chance it might make things a lot worse.

So what are we to do in a situation like this? It's possible to tend to her tendencies indirectly. Instead of directly responding to her gestures (which will likely trigger her -- it is her love language after all), maybe there are things you (giantg2) can do at other occasions that will make her feel loved, so that she's more settled in general, if that makes any sense. Worth a try I think.
> If one thing can be gotten from that incident is forcing GitHub to create finer OAuth scopes and per repository.

This. Limiting OAuth app access to specific repositories. I really wish this was a thing. For this exact reason I'm creating a new GitHub account for every new integration and share the repo with this account. It's technically against the TOS (they only allow single bot account per user) but there is no other way if you want security.

Maybe GitHub will implement this feature now. My hopes are high.
> This free speech idea arose out of a culture of late-90s America where the main people who were interested in censorship were religious conservatives. In practical terms, this meant that they would try to ban porn (or other imagined moral degeneracy) on the internet.

Free speech isn't from the 90s, or America. The mental gymnastics of people who have no principles but would still like to be seen as having them ...

It doesn’t have to be like this. Even when I was CTO, I’d submit my code in a PR and my team would pull me up on mistakes and inconsistencies. It was really annoying! And also great.

PRs are a great way for the whole team to learn about how the organisation cuts code, and can reduce the number of errors, but of course with poor leadership they can be used for evil.
So, they observe a bias toward the average, and the dependence goes exactly as one would naively expect. If scientists exist to explain things we find interesting, statisticians exist to make those things boring. Seriously, work as a data scientist and you end up busting hopes and dreams as a regular part of your job. Almost everything turns out to be mostly randomness. The famous introduction to a statistical mechanics textbook had me pondering this. If life really is just randomness, it’s hard to find motivation. From a different viewpoint, however, I’ve found that the people that embrace this concept by not trying to control things too much, actually end up with the most enviable results, although I may be guilty of selection bias in that sample.
Yes, I do hold some criticisms against Twitter leadership, true, but I'm also fascinated by your view. So I wonder, what if I'm wrong? And then it would be really helpful to see your argument, if you have one. I'm on the fence on a number of things, so this is really your chance to change my mind. And if you do, I might do stuff like investing in Twitter right now, instead of waiting for Musk to take over. Just an example. I'm not saying I will, but it would be a logical next thing to do if you convince me. If not, then I'll probably just wait like everyone else.

> The elites have somehow inverted history so they now believe that it is not censorship that is the favored tool of fascists and authoritarians, even though every fascist and despot in history used censorship to maintain power, but instead believe free speech, free discourse, and free thought are the instruments of repression.

At which point in history could any person blurt out a brainfart and have thousands of people around the globe hear it and react instantly again?

When the printing press was invented ther was a backlash against it, because free speech was endangering existing power structures.

Nowadays we have it the other way around, powerful players use the accelerated chaos of social media to avoid any real discourse from forming — it is just very easy to manipulate just enough into your direction to hide behind "differing opinions" if you have a ton of resources — just like boulevard media has been for the past decades. Censorship and media control is one strategy to reduce the chaos by decelerating the spread of the most outrageous unfounded claims. Of course there can be such a thing as too much censorship (e.g. look to China and Russia), but this would be state censorship.

A billionaire does not want to buy a social media plattform because he cares about free speech — if that was the case he would have nothing about his workers discussing unions, post youtube videos he does not like or journalist writing negative things about him and still being able to buy a Tesla car.

I am not sure there is much wisdom in assuming we can have a world wide instant public microblogging platform without any moderation at all. Anyone who ever operated any public web platform knows the quality of the discourse falls drasticly if there is not at least some level of content moderation.

> One AI engineer from Tesla could solve Twitter's bot and spam problem.

You are heavily overexpecting what the technology can do. Differenciating satire from a threat with sufficient accuracy is not something machine learning ("AI") could do right now.
I came to church later, was not indoctrinated as you say. I respect your supporting your family. When you are older, and have possibly had a successful career, the question still comes up. What is life all about? So it's good to have a bigger view of the world than one which we make up ourselves.

You seem to be first correcting the statement made by D-K in a way so compatible with this article that it is literally their example and then claiming that this corrected statement is correct so the article is wrong... the actual statement--as you even admit--was wrong, and that their data was fine was not being questioned by the article: it was their interpretation, which is what the D-K effect actually is... an inverse correlation between skill and perceived skill. Yes: if you choose to read their graph in a way which D-K didn't consider you can see the correct statement, but D-K didn't do that, and that isn't what anyone--but I guess you--means when they reference the conclusions of the paper and the resulting "effect", which purports to explain "why people tend to hold overly optimistic and miscalibrated views about themselves".

Could you please post here a handful of links (zillow/redfin/etc) to properties one could buy-to-rent and immediately turn up a profit? (Considering all costs.)

I've been looking for over a decade and haven't found one, so it would be most helpful to see a few examples.
The same use case as all state management libraries, just in my opinion, a more familiar API.

The reason you generally have a separate state management library in react is

* You want to avoid re-rendering the entire tree and share state between sibling components in different parts of the tree

* You want better separation of concerns aka MVC / MVVM

Does that answer your question?

Ask HN: How to find a problem a solo founder could and would want to solve?
Something is wrong with my current worldview so I hope smarter fellow founders could help me with some insights.

Recently all problems that I see out there fall into 1 of 3 categories:

1. Too complicated or having too high entry barrier for a tiny team to even start with (like the problem of creating a decent search engine)

2. meaningless or bullshit marketing/fintech kinds of problems that one could barely understand the value of (who on earth need another stupid AI chatbot or blockchain based personalization engine that might increases ARPU by 2%?)

3. Too abstract or ambiguous yet to deal with (like global warming).
The general schtick were and is people convinced of the lab leak with no solid conclusive evidence. That never changed to this day.
I'm in the rare category here, but I've got around 50% hearing loss and I love it. I can't hear alarms, or dogs, or radios etc. It's fantastic for living in the city. I've tried a hearing aid and it's like... "this is awful". I just put one in for tv or the theater or parties and that's about it.
