What I like about Windows' way is that it brought the concept of tiling to the masses, by making it extremely intuitive for beginners (it does roughly what you already meant by moving a window to that half of the screen), AND easy to advance towards being a power user (use win+arrow to tile left/right, etc).

I'm not a Windows user, so I haven't explored what else it's capable of, but that's exactly my idea of a good tiling WM: I don't want to read a man page or tweak a config file, I want it to do what I mean out of the box, and give me a linear return on investment for the time I spend studying the more advanced features.

I'm personally a fan and user of dwm for its simplicity and minimalism, but dwm occupies too much of my attention when all I want is "I want this window on the right, that on the top left, and that one below" - I have to think of masters, nmasters, layouts, all that crap; all while handling the floating windows sucks big time (can't even do it one-handed).

My Hammerspoon config[1] allows me to do that: cmd+opt+left pushes a window in that direction, cmd+opt+ctrl+left grows or shrinks it depending on whether there's space to the left of it, etc. I think it's still very far from ideal, but it's an interesting iteration and an improvement to a system that has no tiling at all, but excellent floating.

Nah, anyone who think China's ambition is Taiwan, is simply ignorant of the civilization's history. China has always been the central of the world order, pride herself on its superiority in all aspects of human society. Taiwan needs to be a showcase of superiority over the US represented system. This superiority could be demonstrated in many manner, not necessarily taking over the island. After all, one who eyes the ocean does not care the pond remain private.

I spent a lot of time reading into crypto, trying out some dApps and trying to understand whether or not there was some usefulness beyond online value transmission. We’ve all read the same articles here but long story short I see no reason to buy or hold and unless something changes I think it’s so far been a terrible waste of energy. Both electricity and human energy.

I’ll reevaluate in a year or two. I think something like ripple could work, and maybe some non eth based dapp platform. But currently none of the coins really seem like a good investment and I’ll continue working on regular ass applications.

I wanted to find something new and amazing, but it feels like more of a religion to me. I guess it’d be cool if something incredible precipitated in a couple decades but I’m not holding my breath.

It was a good read, thanks for writing it. Also, assuming this is correct:

> Almost no SMB views contract management as an urgent problem.

And I think it probably is, then IMO you made the right decision. I don’t know the space very well, but my gut feel would be SMBs don’t have real CLM needs like Enterprises do, they mostly just need something like DocuSign. Taking the money and pivoting might have worked, but I agree, it’s a massive risk in terms of your time and your team’s jobs.
> If you were to replace the word crypto with “computers” or “space travel”

Sputnik was launched in 1957 [0] - it did nothing except orbit and beep. Telstar, the first commercial communications satellite was launched in 1962 (5 years later) - it relayed television signals, photos and phone calls [1].

Blockchain cryptocurrencies started with Bitcoin in 2009, and it's now 2022 (13 years). How long are we supposed to wait for a practical application that solves a real problem? I guess we're supposed to conclude that making literally any broadly useful blockchain application is in fact much harder than commercial space travel or computers.

Interesting concept. I found the page to be a little confusing. You mean you made a language and db to program board game rules? What does the language and db offer that is uniquely helpful for those tasks? Is the db relational?
I agree. I think in general if you’re saying anything interesting there’s at least some risk that you’re wrong—if you only say things that everyone already knows are true, why bother talking?

Some crypto people may be wrong a bit more than baseline because their judgement is more clouded by the dollar signs in their eyes, compared to people talking about e.g. open-source distributed databases.
I guess the point you're making is that TW prevents you from making certain errors.

Which is technically true but irrelevant. TW doesn't prevent you from understanding fundamental CSS concepts such as the box model, cascading, etc. Anyone with even basic CSS knowledge would not write this nonsensical and malicious example you just used.
You know what would be REALLY cool - using the electronically frosting glass which turns opaque, and have it activated anytime anyone steps on the stairs.

We installed these in a hospital's ER department for all the ER and ICU bays. So it was clear - but if there was a Code being called (i.e. someone crashing/going into arrest) they can flip all the glass opaque.

This worked REALLY well in a hospital in LA which had very small ER bays - and getting an entire crash team with intubation etc packed the tiny space with like 10 people. Having a curtain in there consumes people space...

One way is to have 2 or 3 stair treads ahead and behind of the foot placement (weight) turn opaque.

Another thing would also be good for LEDs to light up the frosted treads as they are walked on with a soft glow, but very strong edge defenition (such as a colored-glowing edge of a contrasting light.

Have the stairs light in a running sequence when an emergency/fire alarm is sounded. (but not so fast as to cause vertigo on fleeing tenants.

---

With that said, I dislike glass stairwells in general.

Take SalesForce's 50 Fremont building in San francisco.

Up between like levels 39/40 - there used to be a lawfirm in that space prior to Salesforce buying the build which contained a completely 80's-Cocaine-Infused interior design with a spiral stair going between the floors.

They replaced the gaudy railings of the large spiral stair with curved glass panels. They weigh like 500 pounds each, are extremely expensive (due to the helix nature of the curve) -- but they proved to be really difficult to install without breaking.

I know we went through at least two of the very top panels breaking, but it may have been as many as three breaking during install)

The point is, I know how fragile they were during install - so I do not trust their seismic ratings.

I would say though that the glass stairs in the flagship SF Apple store are made with like ~7-poly-layered glass with the same tech used un windscreens... but these treads and rails in apple are thicker than anthing I had seen prior...

But still - the last place I want to be standing upon during any seismic event is made of glass.

---

Seismic torsion/twisting on the panels will still statter/crack them -- but into smal little square diamonds that can still fuck you up quite easily if youre body is also being violently thrown against them whilst walking up/down in a skirt during an earthquake.

> Do Republican run jurisdictions not have a problem with homelessness, or is it just less visible?

Both; suburban and rural homelessness is less visible, but also less common, in part because urban jurisdictions are inherently more amenable to service delivery (whether by the government or by charities) to the homeless, and homeless people are not nailed down in one place.

> Are they shifting their homeless burden to places like cities with more programs and support for homelessness?

Some of it is “shifting”, some of which is just inherent features of the places conducive to Republican political success in the first place.

> Because I've never actually heard a Republican plan for dealing with homelessness that doesn't involve criminalizing it and sweeping it under the rug where no one can see it.

To be fair, Democratic-run jurisdictions do this a lot, too (there are some exceptions, but they are exceptions even among urban Democratic jurisdictions.) The difference is that heterogenous urban jurisdictions can sweep the homeless out of the places where the people who matter can see them without sweeping them out of the jurisdiction or the range of local government or charity service delivery.

China is definitely watching the US, but I don't think it's for the reason you imagine.

China prefers peaceful reunification. They don't want to fight a war if they don't have to. At the same time, peaceful reunification is a core interest of China. Which means that they will go to war, but only if they believe peaceful reunification is no longer possible.

So yes they do watch the US to make calculations. But even if the US is weak, they still don't want a war as long as they believe peaceful reunification is possible.

Furthermore, Taiwanese reunification is not only a core interest, it's also possibly the most emotional one for the Chinese. Large portions of the population support reunification, and they will overthrow whichever leader lets Taiwan go.

This is why "raising the stakes" by announcing military support for Taiwan does not deter China. Quite the opposite: they encourage China to go to war, costs be damned, because such foreign support signal that peaceful reunification will become impossible.

As for Hong Kong, see my comment here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31705632

Stay and unionize. You get to keep your job and make it a better job. And the NLRB would love to hear about anti-organization efforts at a big tech company that violate labor law.

Let’s not just shrug and say “we’ve tried nothing and we’re all out of options.”
> Deviations in agreements is not a thing exclusive to China.

Yes, but merely looking at the agreement that China broke recently with the invasion of Hong Kong, a reasonable person would assume that there's a much higher risk of them breaking more agreements than another arbitrary country that hasn't been invading other countries recently. Said another way, most people currently will trust France to honor a pact more than they trust Russia.

...not that that somehow makes violating the agreement with and invading Hong Kong somehow morally excusable.

China seems pretty similar to Russia right now - with an authoritarian dictator planning to use military force to invade nearby countries.

You can even draw parallels between their mindsets - Putin wants to recreate the glory of the Soviet Union and views the old USSR countries as "his", just as Xi Jinping wants to recreate the glory of old China and views Hong Kong and Taiwan as his.

> So the question "will China renegade on its agreement or not?" is best answered with another question: "What is China's core interest? What purpose does an agreement serve to China?"

I don't see what purpose this statement has. It's clearly in China's core interest to be aggressive and expansionist and invade nearby countries and steal IP from other countries, but none of that is right, and none of that changes the fact that they're an aggressive enemy who pose a threat to the whole Asia region at least, if not the whole world.

The article only mentions Palm once, as author of the bestselling software on the Newton:

>Graffiti, a simplified handwriting system written by the company Palm, which would go on to make its own PDAs.

It doesn't mention GO Corp at all, which also made a handwriting recognition system, also not very successful.

People actually bought Palms and carried them around. It fit in your shirt pocket, in case you didn't routinely wear a jacket like John Sculley. You did have to learn Graffiti, but it was very simple with instructions that fit on a sticker on the back of the device.

Kaggle has big competitions over several months. They're designed to find top machine learning talent & innovative solutions to the problems they set. Typically the winners aren't just learning ML, they're seasoned pros doing it as a side project.

Our competitions are designed to teach. Each is a progression in difficulty over the previous one. Also there are a set of tutorials preceding each competition which get you up to speed on what you'll learn in the competition.

Plus we're organised into a cohort so you're not competing with the whole world - rather you're competing with your peers who are also learning. You work in a pair on the competition. Then we discuss the solutions teams came up with & what an 'ideal' solution would look like (if one exists - sometimes it doesn't!).
Their API being freely accessible is irrelevant. If they decided to ban anyone using their API differently from their official client, they would be entirely within their rights. They probably won't though. It'd be a waste of time for them, bad publicity, and would just make the custom clients harder to detect instead of making them go away.

I don't have beef in the game, FWIW. I have greasemonkey loaded in my firefox and inject a bunch of custom mods in various webpages, including discord, to automate various parts of my workflow. Discord could probably detect it and ban me, but I guess so long as I don't use it for nefarious purposes, they won't.

Highly verbose and time consuming journaling has gotten me through divorce, major career changes, single parenthood, relocation, a new relationship and a bunch of other life changes. I usually journal only a few times a week, but in the thick of that stuff, I needed much more than a 30 minute window each day to check in with myself about where I was at and where I was trying to get to each day. Sometimes I spent hours. I took a year and a half away from it — which turned out to be by far one of the most impulsive and reckless periods of my life!
Ask HN: Python library for regex with “extent-of-match”
From CS Theory, all regular expressions can be converted to deterministic finite automata. I would like a python library that tells me the precise point at which a string "loses hope" of matching a regular expression. Eg.

Given a regular expression like aba*

And a string like abbab

I want an output that says the match failed at
an index of 2.

meaning that the first ab match (or more technically, are the prefix of a match), but the remaining bab "kill" the possibility of a match.

Anyone know of a python library that does this?
Hardware goes through extensive formal verification as well as testing (incidentally, it tends to be heavily instrumented, cf 'runtime checks', while it is being tested), and has its design frozen months before it goes into mass production. If you developed software the same way, you might see similar results. Most people do not develop software this way.
Although not really my job, I often helped people with their computers at the office. I learned the hard way to not just dive under a desk to fix the cables if women were working there.

I was young and nerdy and without any bad intentions, so they laughed about it after a couple of seconds, but I recall the embarrassment to this day. Maybe this helps anyone ;)

Because of course you mention tertiary centres as if any of those three don't actually have primary research facilities. A tertiary hospital in Australia isn't mailing shit to the US for diagnostics. In the event that they can't figure it out, there's many many state of the art facilities available.

All of this reads like some weird xeophobic libertarian fever dream, and the notion of Canadian, Australian healthcare systems as some primitive backwater barely discovering modern medicine is laughably ignorant.

He's currently at Palmerton, PA/Lehigh Gap. The hike up out of town is steep and completely unshaded. You absolutely bake on a sunny day. Once you hit the top of the ridge, the trail looks out over the old zinc smelting plant for the next five or so miles. It's absolutely one of the most striking parts of the trail.

The ridge is basically bare of trees, AIUI because of the plume of pollution from the zinc plant. A Walk In The Woods (the book, not the execrable movie) goes into some detail.

12 years ago when I hiked through, the ridge was covered in low berry bushes, possibly as some sort of bioremediation effort. I did not partake of the berries.
