>> The point of inclusive language isn’t some weird political points contest. It’s writing in a manner that’s clear to people of lots of different backgrounds and doesn’t rely on just having to know English idioms or have common shared experiences.

I don't think efficiency and universal comprehension is the point at all. Deaf people understand the phrase "loud and clear" just as well as hearing people. Blind people understand "redlining" as well as sighted people do.

Policing every bit of language to cater to every potential group robs the language of its color, which is something I suppose you couldn't say anymore. Robs it of its beauty. Robs it of its poetry. Destroys its capacity for nuance. In the name of what?

Can you possibly be serious? Is your idea of perfect communication something that omits every daily experience of every person who can see, hear, read, and walk? Should these concepts never be mentioned?

How is it "violence" to someone in a wheelchair to talk about walking to the store? They know they're in a wheelchair. They know other people can walk. You think preaching "avoiding the need" for idioms that refer to walking is somehow fixing inequality? It's daft and ludicrous virtue signaling, and worse, it's insulting to everyone you think you're protecting.

[Edit] The worst is, it's a power play. Google should not nudge or dictate the language you use in any document, let alone a private text document! Words are our tools, human tools, to use as we wish to express what we want, the way we want, and you and Google have no right to police them.
I don't know what happened to Ars...

But in the early I remember I used to feel smarter having read something on Ars.

Now it's all PR and movie reviews :-/

Maybe Conde Nast happened.

Yikes...
Why do you think international audiences care about whatever is the American cause du jour? I for one don't and I'm put off by the hamfisted political content.
I’m talking about Indians in America. They represent an elite slice of Indians. :9 most aren’t fans of Modi, and most aren’t populists.

But at least with respect to pre-Fox News Gabbard, the areas where she departed from white progressives were recognizably desi to me. You don’t celebrate your abortion or make your sexuality part of your identity in Indian American communities. Likewise, there tends to be a strong impulse towards realism in foreign policy that accepts brutal dictators like Assad as necessary in some cases to avoid a breakdown in order. and there is a strong Russian affinity, since India was aligned with the Soviet Union during the Cold War. Meanwhile, Harris quite closely tracked white progressive orthodoxy.
Where is the line drawn? MS Word suggests style corrections too, despite the meaning being totally understandable.

As an enterprise feature, enterprises would interested in this because they wouldn't want their employees communications to get them cancelled or put on woke twitter. Despite their writing style guide[1] being a bit too woke for my liking i'm sure some people find it a good reference, especially if they don't have capacity to create their own corporate guide.

There's a technical reason to use something with no technical reason precisely because it's engineering. Your job is to make a circuit board that works, a trace that has the right impedance, etc. so doing the dumb thing reduces your risk of not doing that. More of a principle than a practical issue in this case, of course.
"he best parts of Twitter are amongst professional circles where people use their real names"

Real names don't mean anything. Facebook/Twitter/Instagram have people with real names and there's still disgusting behavior and rude interactions. Real names don't mean anything when you're reduced from a person to pixels on a screen, separated by hundreds or thousands of miles.

Reddit provides solace in that people can have more longform, nuanced discussions under an anonymous handle. So they don't have random people scouring through every post of theirs and pulling words out of context, like some witchhunters are doing with old emails.

"Whereas if you look at Reddit right now it is inundated with posts about the Depp/Heard case."

There wouldn't be much to discuss if the case were being handled fairly.

Instead, you've got one party on tape actually admitting abuse of their partner, and yet the victim is the one who loses their career and has magazines printing lies about them. I want you to envision the public reaction to the case if the genders were reversed here.

Any reasonable person can see that this situation is a clear example of unfair double standards, which is why it's being discussed so much. There are double standards for men and women, and I'd wager nearly every man alive right now knows about the double standards men face. That is why reddit, a male-dominated space, is highly interested in this case. This doesn't mean that women don't face double standards, of course, but reddit is not really able to discuss that well.
It used to be possible with mint.com. I actually reported that to them and they fixed it!
Yes, WooCommerce is a plugin for WordPress.
Sizable I doubt, however I have been in smaller circles that do better.
Unless medium to large scale farming in the US is significantly different than the rest of the world, Land availability and demand are only tiny parts of the puzzle and not even the hardest issues to solve when farming. The need for immediate scale for any kind of shortage is guaranteed to cause significant shortages + massive price hikes starvation in the short term.
I love rich and well-crafted prose like this.
As others have pointed out that's not what the law said at all. It said certain educational topics were inappropriate for small children. Which is reasonable.
It's a good question, one that has not been answered yet. We will have to wait for some court cases to have this answer.
Auto sleep and auto screen lock are two very different things.
I'm guilty of this, as I have my prompt set to a single > character. I'd be interested to know where the $ as a representation for user input suggestion originated from. I didn't know about # indicating that a command should be run as a superuser

Well that was fast, though with 1B MAU, there almost have to be older people on it.
I have heard from others that, “the democrats want to be in power forever.” And yet, the democrats didn’t literally try to violently overthrow the US government, like the Republicans did. That said, I have a lot of respect for Pence and other Republicans. In fact, before the party was led astray, it was always a grand compromise, just like the government always has been since inception. Most people, I think, want to keep a two-party system. We don’t want to live in a dictatorship.
Likewise some airlines don't even require someone to fly. I knew someone that would ship very expensive camera gear to film productions directly with an airline. They would check the cases and send it off. Someone would just go and pick it up. Obviously only really works if you're not dealing with customs.

My wife treats some of them, and they definitely do exist. The human brain is a fantasticly complex organ, and these personalities help the brain to overcome severe trauma.

but it is extremely rare of course.

now my wife read it and commented: no, this article is very well written and very true.
That is nice. I’m worried I somehow damaged my phones wifi radio (it sits infinitely looking for SSIDs while never finding any now) and my mobile network is screwy, constantly switching networks between low-bar LTE and 5G. Sometimes HN is the only site that wants to load
On the contrary, I just want the dumbed down version. I’m not ever going to implement it (nobody should RYO crypto unless you really know what you’re doing), nor am I going to have to rely on the knowledge in my daily life - I’m not a maths educator, and I’m certainly not a cryptographer.

It’s still good to understand the basics.

I learnt a lot about PKI by forcing myself to learn the absolute basics of modulo, but I’ll never implement it or do a full calculation.
Watching TV from behind the wheel of a self-driving car to be allowed in UK
Yeah, people complain about censorship and bans on social media now, but honestly I don't see it. Seems like you can pretty much spit out nothing but hatred and personal attacks on Twitter or Reddit for years and nothing will happen.
As the father of two young children with another on the way, this is a deep fear of mine. Putin has shown himself to be willing to murder people and leave his signature on the killings by using rare nuclear poisons only he has access to. What if Putin say, "You are killing Russian children in Ukraine, we will kill your children with a genetically modified virus in Britain and the United States"?

We may be at total war and not even know it yet.
Discussed here a few days ago:

A couple years ago I would have guessed. Nowadays it seems I’d be lucky to go day without the comments managing to violate damn near every guideline.
Probably the creativity is in the eye of the beholder in that case. Anyway there are billions of people that even don't think about art or not art. They look for pretty pictures to put in a frame and the only thing that matters to them is the price of the picture plus the frame. Best if it costs less than a meal. The painter or the photographer could be unknown or an AI, they couldn't be bothered. My point is that it opens a market for very low cost unique self made pictures and if it happens people won't care if it's art. Pretty would be enough.
I find it interesting that snapchat still is used by young people and not really by older people.

I remember using it about 10 years ago in highschool, and then college, before I kind of went to nothing and then instagram to keep in touch with some people. I'm 26 now and I know a lot of people that still use it. But unlike facebook/instagram, I don't really know of any people much older than me that started using snapchat.
> For TV shows, when they do produce something of quality they often dump it if it doesn't find an audience immediately or it doesn't drive "new subscribers".

Or they make a second season so atrocious that they lose the entire audience. For example, the first season of Altered Carbon is one of the best "hard" sci-fi I've ever seen in a TV show. The second season was supposed to have a much bigger budget and had an A-list lead. But it was so horrible that I couldn't even finish watching it.
Do you mean this tool, or OCaml? They are definitely writing their actual trading systems in OCaml, they have been publicizing this for many years.
I’m kinda saddened by this one because occasionally someone brings up an interesting point about voting, but are typically buried.
This can be solved in different ways.

First, everything is an entity, so you can enrich attributes with information about how they should manage PII/SPI data. There's nothing built-in but you can build meta models easily.

Second, if you really have stringent requirements you would encrypt the data that is to be protected and throw away the encryption keys when the data needs to be purged.

Datomic does allow you to opt out of history so the keys would not be recoverable in that case.

Or, you just excise the data, at which point the information will be purged from the database. It's not instant, index rebuilds and garbage collection need to take place before it's really gone.

You're in control. The fact that you have history isn't a problem.
This was the kind of stuff that excited me back when I was first getting into PC gaming. Nowadays, computers are so fast and games are so forgiving that I haven't had to fuss with overclocking for years.

Back then it felt like the only option, getting maximum frames was a function of my ability to build a highly effective cooling setup and how much patience I had to tweak everything.

My very last foray into custom cooling was a homebrew phase change cooler using a cell I had bought off eBay. This is making me want to jump back in just for the fun of the build. But without the need for performance, it does lack a bit of thst purpose it had back then.
> Is it high enough that one also could say the vaccinated have a "virtually zero risk" of Myocarditis?

Yes. The risk of myocarditis from covid is higher than this, even if there were zero other effects to consider.
This is too vague to be useful, and also answers a question with a question. I’m not sure why you felt compelled to respond this way.
> For one thing, Covid-caused myocarditis is an order of magnitude or two more frequent than vaccine-caused myocarditis, at all ages.

If only the vaccines would prevent infection, so these risks would be mutually exclusive, instead of cumulative.

> Reinfections are now documented to have happened as closely as 20 days apart !

How soon has an infection been documented after becoming "fully vaccinated"?
Better yet, Google's AI will just write your Docs for you from now on. Letting people type their own text files is unsafe, and may cause harm.
What is the alternative? Let's say blue origin goes bankrupt and disappears. Now we as a nation will have to wait for another company to get to the same level as blue origin. We don't know how long that will take, if ever? In the mean time the US will have to spend billions to advance space exploration. Or we can give blue origin 10 billion and let it continue with its goals. The money will be spent either way. There's no great choice but giving Bezos' company the money is the better choice.

Space exploration needs to be financed now so at some point it is a commercial success. Very little advances will be made if we can't find a financial model that will keep it going on its own.
Oh, yeah, think of event sourcing. You have a series of events leading up (aggregate) into some state.

This can be done in different ways but with Datomic you can request a point in time database. This database doesn't exist so it needs to be "sourced" from history. This means running through everything that happened up to some point to create a snapshot of the database state (or query).
After a long time, I visited Stallman's site because I woke up humming the free software song (weird, I know :). I forgot just how much information the man has put up there. Like him or not, he's a fascinating character. Not just that, but he stands for something the majority of us only profited from in our professional careers.

One other interesting article he wrote is about his decision not to have children[0]. I remember reading it for the first time some five years ago, sharing it with a bunch of friends, and ending up having a night-long discussion about it. I personally believe that he went a bit too far with that one though.

It depends how you define "communities". If you treat each of Reddit's subreddits as a separate community then there are a lot of small-to-medium sized ones that qualify.

(A lot of awful ones too, of course.)

And it's GN, a very rigorous testing, review, teardown channel with a team behind them. Feels like "a youtuber" sort of does em a bit of injustice :)
I still think traffic lights would work as that’s almost a universal global standard (isn’t Japan the only exception?) and it works well in English

But I think we can agree that the goal when choosing these names isn’t really being concise and easy to use
Fear is agenda of news. Keep that in mind and do not let them justify any evil by that.
No, rights are for people. Corporations are not groups of individuals but intangible logical entities that groups of individuals use to conduct business. By your logic, revoking the incorporation of a company is equivalent to murder as well? The individuals that own Disney are free to spend their profits however they wish or speak whatever they want like every individual. The ability to use their privilege of being able to conduct business and hire employees to an arbitrary end is not protected. The CEO can say "I hate the president" but the company can be restricted from publishing material to that effect directly or by contracting out the publication to someone else.

Especially publicly traded companies like Disney are not making decisions on behalf of every or majority if their shareholders which changes hands frequently. Any speech made by the company does not directly represent the will of the owners but the execution of the business in it's priviledged and regulated capacity under it's incorporation title and public exchange listing.
I Was thinking the same thing. Backing mine out the garage now, headed over to Jimmy Johns, want anything?
Unfortunately one of my favorite games of recent time (Total War Attila) is almost incapable of running on my current vanilla setup at decent frame rate (not a top of the line gaming PC, but a decent machine with a Ryzen 9 and a 30 series GPU) due to poor optimization and abdonment. The hardware used is years ahead of the game.
Yeah but it replaced fat with refined sugar. That doesn't mean adding animal fat back is an unconditional improvement
But the vaccines don't prevent Covid infection. If the infection rates from Ontario and the UK were to be believed (before the UK stopped publishing the vaccinated vs unvaccinated breakdowns, that is), being vaccinated might even make you more likely to be infected.
A friend lived in a “dark sky” village near Oxford, no street lights etc. Not sure just how dark it got.
I don’t want your limit for “sizable” is, but yes, but they’re semi-hidden on places like Slack, Reddit and Discord.
It's also very possible that the risks for covid in each possible circumstance are higher than that for the vaccine. Quite likely even.
This is really cool. I’ve been wanting to build my own lab, but I’m a bit worried about power consumption. If I do build something, then it would probably be something I power up and down as required.

That said, are there “Cloud” versions of this? Can I get my feet wet that way?
This took me a while to click, but:

- cache entries are assumed to be looked up by the virtual address (not physical), to save a TLB lookup

- within a single page, the page line index is the same in both a physical and a virtual address

- if the cache has enough sets, it doesn't just use the line bits, but also some bits of the page address

Here's the crucial bit: a single physical page address may correspond to several different virtual addresses, so if the cache kept using virtual addresses, it might have had many copies of the same line. Kaboom.

That's why having more sets in a cache than lines in a page is troublesome.
Thanks everyone for the suggestions and responses.
Ha. Yes. This thread goes into the "dangerous thought" category. Another example of a dangerous thought: could you stop your heartbeat by just thinking? Of course, nobody sane would want to. But what if you're genuinely intellectually curious? Best try not to think about it.
the thing with newbie is no overhead and teach them lessons. leave tweaking and aesthetics for their own time. if they really are into the terminal, they will find their own way and time to decorate em.
Or people could learn something by, for example, encountering the phrase and looking up the historical context.

The extension of your logic is that all writing should be geared to people with no knowledge, no historical reference, no firm understanding of the language, no visual or auditory cues (how do you talk about music without harming someone? Seriously, I ask this as a former music columnist). That is not language. [Edit: It's at best a graphic, except even that would be prohibited]. That is the conveyance of minimal information, like, 'don't stand here (in the place formerly known as being in front of a door).' It's completely absurd. It's inhuman. It's bent and wicked.
This particular feature is indeed half-baked and dumb, but FWIW, much of what I've seen claimed in the comments is outright false.

If you know anyone within Google, I suggest privately asking their experiences, rather than sampling only those people who are mad about Google on HN.
Yeah, the emoji manipulation of this is much more subversive and also continuously going on. Forbidding emojis which get converted to suggestiveness. We're left with eggplant and water droplets, which they know they can't remove, but they also are on guard against adding anything new that would allow more expressiveness in that area.

If they could they'd ban the letter X to prevent people typing "sex"
Do you only object to the entitled tone of certain feature requests people have written, or do you see all issues created on your project without a corresponding code change as entitled? If it’s the latter, you can disable Issues on your project, leaving only Pull Requests as an option.

If you disable Issues, I suggest also briefly explaining why you did that in the README to ensure you don’t get do-nothing Pull Requests asking how you’d like bug reports submitted.
Article title is "AMERICAN PHONE-TRACKING FIRM DEMO’D SURVEILLANCE POWERS BY SPYING ON CIA AND NSA".

I think that's much clearer than the submission title, which took me a few rereads to parse.
I wasn't trying to say how a streaming service should work though. Just explained what would satisfy me as a consumer.
Shifts happen in design all the time, it's a stampede thing, one thing can start it, the rest follow suit, DalleE may or may not, and then in a few more years something else will happen. DallE is not hugely important, maybe AI in general might be for the next few years.
What if it really gets to know you over time? Once projected onto your canvas, Dall-E will be able to track your brush strokes and guide you into a collaborative masterpiece.
Yes, it's in the battery applet. I'm pretty sure it's been there for a long time, but I think it was named differently before ("disable power management" maybe?)
> I’ve been wanting to build my own lab, but I’m a bit worried about power consumption.

I’ve been concerned about this too. Initially I wasn’t worried, but in some arguments some people have warned me that even a single rack can incur significant monthly bill increases. I have a lot of retro hard too which I imagine is less power efficient.
Saying GN doesn't really mean anything, unless you already know who they are, which obviously the person you replied to doesn't.
Not at all. Rather you might want a tight coupling because it will allow you to integrate deeper.

Having the same code running on client and server when your application is split between running both on client and server is very convenient.

As an example, a React application with server rendering and then progressive enhancements on the client. Very common pattern.
Nearly all of the devices you would want to power / we have the ability to build have a lifespan orders of magnitude shorter than the lifespan of the battery. It just doesn't make sense any way you look at it. The top comment is right. There's much better, more cost effective solutions for powering the proposed device, and better, more practical uses for the 'spent' nuclear fuel.
You can have a homelab with just one or a few raspberry pi’s. Power consumption would be negligible.
yep.. I use a xxx@zoho.com webmail account to register for 100% of anything that required a "regwall" ( registration firewall ) as you are 100% going to get email from them all even if you opt-out.. also any events like webinars or free ebook or whitepaper downloads that say "work email only" allowed I use https://temp-mail.org/ to teach them to not be so stupid about this "only work email address" nonsense..
