> And we have continued to do just that, representing and supporting organizations and individuals with whom we vehemently disagree, including: Trump supporters, the Trump lawyer Michael Cohen, Donald Trump himself, the NRA, the anti-trans provocateur Milo Yiannopoulos, anti-Semitic protesters, racist and homophobic students, and the Koch-supported Americans for Prosperity. Most recently, we called on Georgetown University not to fire Ilya Shapiro over his “lesser Black woman” tweet about President Biden’s commitment to name a Black woman to the Supreme Court, and hailed Elon Musk’s pledge, should his purchase of Twitter go through, to re-platform Trump.

Obviously the pressurised air itself has mass, but I think its more to do with tyre deformation modifying the contact surface area. The air inside is just to distribute the load across the contact area.

There's a whole prepackaged narrative for right wing types about drug harm reducement being so bad it's counterproductive.

Example headlines:

Why We Must Arrest Drug Addicts

This is revealing as to where they are coming from:

> People who want to kill themselves in the privacy of their own homes by smoking fentanyl should be free to do so. But people who use drugs, camp publicly, and break other laws stemming from their addictions, such as shoplifting, should be arrested.

And a big part of it is lying about how other countries deal with drugs to try to paint liberal American cities in a bad light.

Nothing can replace a good teacher, as nothing can replace natural interest and motivation. A good teacher makes topics graspable...

> A rolodex was enough because that's all that could be managed by an individual. If the number of names needed by a person grew past the size of a rolodex, they were simply out of luck because no system existed that would allow them to efficiently handle that much data. That's my takeaway at least.

Yes, absolutely true.

Given "hundreds of filing cabinets" though, how many of those leads can or will even be contacted in the salesperson/company's lifetime? How many leads will themselves have died before you even get to their number?

It's "advancement" only in the sense that we've made hoarding more efficient (which is a technical achievement in itself).
If social media is like smoking (for the mind), and if there are more phones than humans, then it might mean that the only technologically feasible way to protect minors from the harms of social media would be to implement a drivers-license-like system to gain access to social media.

Will this happen? No.

Will implementing new revenue streams for lawyers happen? Yes.

I'm reality it would be even less than that since the wealth of most billionaires is in the form of speculative wealth such as company stock.

Ah, that makes sense. I'm curious though, how would auditors ensure the asset is marked to reflect the risk? If one organization thinks the risk is substantually lower than another, what do they mark? Or is there generally enough arbitrage that this doesn't happen.
This brings up an interesting question: what is the upper-bound of hidden data density using video steganography? E.g. how much extra data can you add before noticeable degradation? It's interesting because it requires both a detailed understanding of video encoding and also understanding of human perception of video.

I'm not denying that under some circumstances you can find lot of impressive freedom of speech in the west.
The idea is that the outcome is not different in the causes that actually matters! Even your point about the Iraq war proves my point, despite all the fight back, the US was able to manufacture the consent and execute the plans, similar thing happened in the Syrian war and in many other places. Even in the Ukrainian war this is happening again, you don't need to be on the Russian side (and I'm not) to understand that there is manufactured consent in the whole western bloc to move forward with the war (you can view this war as pure Russian offence, or as Geo-political provocation by the US to fight Russia and even China to stop it's decline or something in between those extremes). Of Course you will find many anti US leftists and Pro Russian voices in the west, but those are demonized(even pointing some nuance can make you a Russian bot/agent) so they have no to little effect in the grand scheme of things.
I'm from a "third wold" country that have lot of freedom of speech, you can even curse many political leaders on the TV without consequences, but I know that this is not real freedom of speech because the power structures make this irrelevant mostly (not that I want to give up on this freedom).
At some point in the future, when the western bloc already declined in power enough this will be clear, we will be talking about how the freedom of speech and democracy was mostly a facade that hides the real power structures and didn't make big effect on the important causes of the world. Decades of scandals, coups, and wars orchestrated by USA (what Snowden and Assange revealed is only one episode of long list) didn't stop many (most?) US people from thinking that they're the "good people in the room" despite some mistakes.

No one can convince me that Python is an easy or simple language.

For parentheses, I find Racket and in particular Scheme to be enjoyable. My primary reasons are that it creates a massive amount of regularity and consistency in the language, of which there is none in Python. I had my girlfriend at the time take the How to Code: Simple Data course on edX, which uses the Racket learning languages. Not once did I need to answer a syntax question. Not one complaint about parentheses. She had no prior experience programming.

I find the people who whine and moan about parentheses are usually ones who have massive preconceived notions of what programming should look like or are so deep in some other language they are resistant to change.

I honestly feel like the best textual syntax is something like ML (as found in F#) or Scheme. Anything else is basically just random tweaks and way too much time has been wasted on textual syntax, which is conceptually bounded in terms of its expressiveness. But programmers and computer scientists are extremely myopic. Somehow we graduated from punch cards to text files and have plateaued ever since.

> decent lisp-friendly tooling with a low barrier to entry, and DrRacket provides that

I'm not really sure what the commenter meant by that, but in my experience, all I ever needed was the auto-formatter and parentheses matching DrRacket provides. Matching delimiters occurs in any language, it's just that you have more of them.

My anecdotal evidence is developers struggle big time to deploy simple stuff to AWS. "Easy things should be easy" isn't part of their philosophy.

Not complaining thought, I make good money understanding AWS so others don't need to.

> Why should it be?

Because if they don't focus on developer experience, they might end up being treated as a commodity. Eventually someone will eat their lunch.
Not humans that have access to conventional nutrients. There's no selection pressure to encourage that kind of mutation. There's less and less selection pressure in general, these days.
The problem is marketing it as if it will be free and ad free, then restricting its capability based on price while notifying users to upgrade. It's a bait and switch.
I admit the clickbait part if you look at it from an open source/open hardware perspective, however, with the title I wanted to rather follow up on the lacking trackpoint keyboard for a repairable modular laptop. And you are also right on the b2b ( see also my own comment below). However, not much of an framework ecosystem has actually materialized yet. To me it is an alternative as it is also modular and repairable to some degree. Your post is also quite typical HN in its negativity:The product does exist and you can buy it via resellers. Maybe a better title would be ThinkPad alternative. The comparison to framework wasn't actually my idea but I read review about it in one of the biggest European computer tech magazies [1]. It also has been featured with a reference to framework on Tom's HW [2]

I don't think it is given the user's history. But he didn't think about it too much.

I see he's also waiting for a trackpoint in the framework but i don't think we'll get it, some framework people said it wasn't feasible and there's a long road ahead before we get 3rd party stuff.

I can't get a framework either, as I live in the EU.
Didn’t Symbian Ed up using a version of CodeWarrior? Unfortunately, a Windows version of memory serves.
True. Although more often than not it's the opposite in my experience. Large organizations can afford to spend the money on GCP/aws/Azure and deploy thousands of services. They can also afford the money to hire infrastructure engineers to maintain such services. Also, in large companies everything needs to be implemented "the same way", so no matter if you want to deploy a tiny service or a huge one, you must do it the same way other services in the company are deployed.

Whereas when you are a one-man business, all you have is (free) time and prefer to spend as little money as possible while your business is not profitable. This means: walk away from dedicated databases, managed servers, huge aws bills, etc. You do everything "the old" way: rent a server (bare metal or cloud) and maintain it yourself.
I have been using a couple of these apps for years and have never been nagged to upgrade or pay. I'm an f-droid user, so that's probably why.

A lot of FOSS apps are taking this approach: offer the full version in f-droid, charge for it in the play store, both to encourage f-droid use and pay some bills. There's nothing wrong with it.

The only problem I've ever had with it was I used the contacts app when it was new and it didn't actually fill in phone numbers on vcard export. This was terrible, thankfully I had an older backup and only lost a couple of contacts, but still. Beyond that, these tools work extremely well.

Your argument is rather confusing. You say they aren't comparable, then point out a plethora of comparisons. You then finish by demonstrating some of the reasons governments are inefficient.

This law is a terrible idea, since it's overbroad and will be abused.

However I also think that the addictive design of social media is still something that deserves further scrutiny. I'm really curious how prevalent the phenomenon of people working at tech companies whose kids are raised "tech-free", it's almost a tacit admission that they know they've optimized their products to the point of being harmful (in the narrow sense of eroding executive function).

https://www.businessinsider.in/science/silicon-valley-parent...

Best case scenario, they would voluntarily build in small mechanisms to help people mentally breathe (like stopping an infinite feed after a certain amount of time and little reminders that say "hey, you've been on here for several hours, how about taking a break?") These could even be opt-in settings. But they never will do that, since it's all about juicing numbers at all costs.

Trying to use social media responsibly when you have ADD is a nightmare, since it's designed to exploit it against your best interests. It's silly to expect people to use social media responsibly when everything has thousands of hours of design in it to prevent that, especially for people that have issues with executive function (like kids and people with ADD).

Parents are the most responsible for how their kids use tech, but it's also a privilege to have the time and energy as a parent to counter all of this that's working against you. Parents that have to work long hours and multiple jobs to provide won't be able to do that, and that doesn't necessarily make them bad parents.

All that being said, I'm not sure how you go about improving the situation without resorting to terrible laws like this. There are too many bad laws that are passed under the guise of "for the children", and this smells like one of them. I really hope this doesn't pass and someone finds a better solution.
I'd guess we'd end up hosting bacteria that do that first. I think mitochondria themselves started that way with early cells.
OOP syntax is not in fact required, and such hierarchies are not in fact presented for that reason. They are used to illustrate a concept using a familiar subject.

OOP is rarely the right way to organize a program, but almost any sufficiently large program has one or more subsystems that map naturally to OOP. A language that supports it is helpful in those places. Saying you could code the same thing without the feature wholly misses the point: of course you could, but it would be more work, and there would be more places to make mistakes.

The same applies to any powerful language feature. Where it is useful, using it helps. Where it is not useful, another may be. Languages lacking powerful features make the programmer do more work, leaving less time and attention to make the program, or other more important programs, better.
I firmly believe that transaction fees (incl invoices, etc) should be fundamentally a constant flat fee. Whoever builds a competitor to Stripe will blow everyone away.

The cost of transaction is the same. Customers are being robbed in day light with % based transaction fees since the dawn of time.

This entire industry is begging for disruption.
IMO, this is seeing everything as a nail when you're a hammer.

AWS provides extreme flexibility. This really only becomes valuable once you hit a scale that you can optimize your infrastructure around the shape of your needs.

* Need some heavy workload to run in the most cost effective data center at the most cost effective time. Yep, AWS is great for that.

* Need a specialized GPU set. Yep, AWS is great for that.

* Need some crazy storage or memory setup. Yep, AWS is great for that.

For everything else, you should really consider using a PaaS with a good ol' Docker container.

The syntax is straightforward. You're referring to semantics. And in that respect, yes, Common Lisp is a very complicated language. The specification is about a thousand pages after all. I wouldn't say it's more complicated than C++ though, and personally I like simple syntax plus complicated semantics considerably more than complicated syntax and semantics. Personally I don't find separate function and value namespaces particularly confusing, but I do agree that it introduces some inelegance. Then again I'm demented enough that I think Perl is beautiful so YMMV.

Even so there are some syntactic hints in terms of symbol naming, like how you can be pretty confident that a form that starts with WITH- is probably some kind of UNWIND-PROTECT macro that grabs a resource and cleans up after itself. Another example is that a symbol with asterisks for the first and last characters names a special variable.
Much appreciated. I hope we can continue to help as you grow.
Legal defense feels like another system in crisis, like health care, where there's just no where near enough capacity for the system's demands. The citizenry sliding into a less and less reasonably well represented state, their respect under the law diminishing: it's hard to imagine what else we could do, how we can retain the decency & dignity & legitemacy of the state, as the crunch comes.

> In a pair of decisions, the [previous] court said that if a defendant is represented by an ineffective lawyer during their post-conviction proceedings, and that lawyer fails to argue that the defendant was represented by an ineffective lawyer during the defendant’s trial, a federal court can still hear the defendant’s claim that they received ineffective assistance at trial in violation of the Sixth Amendment.

Of course that's just too reasonable & decent for the current Court. Again more seeming sensibility & decency, hurled into the gutter. More precedent overturned, more malice for all. The NeoCon agenda felt like it was at attempt to push American might abroad, but having failed that, we seem to be increasingly authoritarian & uncaring at home.

> I'm assuming this is a genuine question, so I'll answer with my genuine understanding.

I'm assuming you're a genuine person and not a weird 8-foot-tall android robot, so I'll bless you with the same provisional magnanimity. Here's my answer in all its glory:

I am very tired of this line, to be perfectly honest. If you think it's not a genuine question, just say so; if you don’t think that, then I don’t need to hear about what you don’t think. Insincere insinuative rhetorical tricks at the start of a comment make me feel that you're not being genuine.

In future, you can just check the question mark at the end of the line. Think of it as a ‘checksum for questions’, if you will, or a bitmask.

> overwriting someone's framing of the harmful events that happened to them

This is a very artful smooshing-together of "question someone's feelings" and "question the external events which [avowedly] caused them to feel that way". I have to say, I was nearly persuaded by the end of it.

I obviously agree, as anyone would, that questioning someone's feelings is absurd (outside extremely specific edge cases, as you acknowledge, like malingering). I obviously do not agree that questioning the events claimed to have caused them to feel those feelings is in any way unreasonable.

My general impression is that this is slangified verbiage used by people who want to be imprecise about the very straightforward concepts they are discussing, in order not to be pinned down on the dividing line between feelings and facts in these examples. As a wise man said, the great enemy of clear language is insincerity (not necessarily on your part, personally). I think we're unlikely even to have a productive discussion about this, much less to agree, but I figured I had to post some sort of response.
