Enjoyed reading the history. I would say that it wasn’t really a trend to begin with. A few designers made some popular conceptual pieces that led to more conceptual pieces. Apple didn’t meaningfully adopt it when they made a few sliders less flat, like in the new control center on macOS.

Personally, I found the designs repulsive. That sounds like a hot take, but I actually found myself averting from the unnatural shadow diffusions and artificial heights in neumorphic concepts, the way some are repulsed by depictions of holes in solid surfaces or slightly distorted faces. I wouldn’t want to have had to interact with many of those elements daily.

Broadly, there's two types of views regarding justice and how to construct a moral society: systemic responsibility vs individual responsibility. For the systemic responsibility view, you pull any and every lever to result in more preferable outcomes. For example, the response to rampant gun violence is more gun control. Here it makes sense to ask why we are not pulling every lever to prevent deaths from gun violence as we are deaths from abortion. This is in contrast to the individual responsibility view. Here, the response to immoral behavior is punishment for the wrongdoer only. Systemic issues are not relevant. In this case, there is no contradiction to punish women who get abortions and not increase restrictions on guns. (Of course, individuals will have views that are varying combinations of the two.)
> What if an AI in the future acts in a way that you would expect from someone sentient?

Yes, this is the meat and potatoes of the question. Personally I think that the safest approach in that case is to treat them as if they were sentient, but there are lots of people with various prejudices about what the prerequisites for sentience are that would fall on the other side of the question.
While I'm a strong supporter of abortion rights, I agree with this logic.

If anything, this will force conservatives to solidify and clarify their views on abortion which will allow voters to decide where they land on the spectrum of abortion rights. Whereas before, conservatives just deferred to "abortion bad. look at supreme court decision".

Also, is it not the case that most Americans support some abortion rights? Thus, this could force conservatives to move center on the abortion spectrum in order to appease their constituents.
Funny how friends, life, and everything other than 2-way auth is on the "burner" :)
My biggest issue with zig is that it is immature programming language. Breaking changes can occur at any point and bugs can be introduced at compilation step. So with a bit of unlucky your coding experience might end up a hell.

Not a fan of Rust too though and like the zig idea in general.
> Do you think a suicidal pilot has the right to stop flying a plane mid-flight

Interesting example, but I don't think such a pilot whould cares about rights.

The better question might be - what could you do to force such a pilot to fly the plane, and it appears that you could only plead - they would not be afraid of being shot (which is illegal anyway), and torture is very clearly illegal.
Read Thomas's opinion. He wants to overturn tolerance for homosexuality, contraception, and interracial marriage (Whoops, he left that one out, despite it being the fruit of the same tree, I wonder why...) on the same grounds as RvW.

Also, Mike Pence is already calling for a national abortion ban. So much for the party of 'states rights'.
My great grandmother Julianna died in 1935 aborting herself with a coat hanger in Southern Idaho. She was born in 1915 and died in 1935. Twenty years old. I’m a fifth-generation Idahoan, my family moved to Idaho during the great Mormon exodus of Illinois.

They were extremely impoverished. It was the Great Depression and in one of her letters, she writes about not even having the luxury of bone broth They were barely able to take care of their two children and she writes that it was better to save two children than let three starve. In her letters, she describes her guilt and the emotional pain she endured watching her two children be hungry. One of those children was my grandmother. She describes her concerns of being malnourished, she had been opting not to eat as much to let her two children eat, and how that would affect her unborn child.

She wrote that her pregnancy was early enough that she could reconcile her faith in allowing her two other children to survive and that not giving birth to a malnourished child would also be the right thing to do for that child as well. In college ethics classes, I became enamored with her situation and had a dozen or more conversations with my grandmother, I read my great-grandmother's letters and heard the story as passed through the generations. I will always cherish those conversations with my grandmother.

This of course ultimately developed my personal beliefs. I am thinking of her and my grandmother today.

I’m in a same-sex marriage and my stomach dropped reading Clarence Thomas’s opinion and his reference to Obergefell. It wasn’t that long ago I wasn’t able to see my now-husband in the hospital — the emergency room - here in conservative Idaho. I do understand his opinion and context but even if legally sound, it affects me.

We the people of the United States of America know how to edit our living constitution and make the rights that we want a constitutional guarantee. It seems impossible at the moment with the divisiveness, polarization and in-fighting but we know that religion is on the decline and you will see that represented in elections in the coming decades. It is possible, we just don’t know the path today. It can be done, but it won’t be easy.

I’m sorry, this isn’t all that related to Hacker News. To relate it back, I guess I am saying that we’re hackers, we can hack society, we can hack belief systems, we can take unrelated ideas and bring them together to create something new just like we do inventing new categories of products. We can disrupt things through big ideas and through execution. If we want change, it will be a lot of hacking and hard work. After all, I think it was social / political hacking by the creators of this movement that got us here to today.
As a recent kid, I can tell you that those sorts of glasses are the only uncool kind.
Partially related: I have two older WRAP boards by the same manufacturer which served me well in the past but today are too old and slow to be used for packet filtering (AMD Geode x86 CPU, 128MB RAM). I think they could be of use in other contexts, once provided with a more suitable OS; what would you recommend to keep them in use in embedded related applications where security is not a concern, that is, reading from sensors in local networks, hosting very simple services, etc? They're well built and still low power (5 Watts or less) and would deserve some more years of life.
well, those people are then exactly who i will avoid doing business with.
It becomes less hypocritical if you consider that they think that the fetus is another's body. It then becomes an issue of deciding upon someone else's life - which would be murder of course.

One thing I think they don't get, or care about, is the personal and societal consequences of having to keep unwanted pregnancies - mainly how much it makes life more difficult for everyone involved. And that with the difficulty, it comes degraded social relationships, unhappiness, substance abuse and crime.

Another thing I think they miss is that lots of people will have abortions regardless. Affluent people will have the safe abortions, and the less fortunate will have risky, potentially life-threatening, horrible abortions. Where there's a will, there's a way, so again, crime increases, and the desperate women's health will be in danger, becase the procedure has to go unchecked.
If doing the world wide paperwork is too hard, then maybe they shouldn't be allowed to grow so large.
The dark side of the mobile number portability that we all wanted. I wonder what would have happened in the alternate universe where a lot of people would presumably have been changing mobile numbers with at least some frequency.

I also have to wonder how Google Voice has survived Google's ax all these years.
That's cool.

Where I'm at when people (like, taxi drivers) do bother to return lost-and-found wallets, it's newsworthy enough to make its way to the newspaper.

That should tell you the status quo here.
> It's meant to protect liberties that were traditionally respected at the time of its ratification, but were not all necessarily written down. Abortion was not one of those -- in fact it was flatly illegal (almost?) every single state at the time, and continued so into the 20th century.

The text I emphasized above is false.

After independence, the US adopted English common law, which "hazily" prohibited abortion after "quickening" (fetal movements usually first felt around 15-20 weeks' gestation), but lacked an actual written statute banning this. The first anti-abortion laws were introduced in Connecticut in 1821 (precipitated by a womanizing preacher who got one of his many young female fans pregnant, insisted she abort the fetus before marrying him because it'd damage his reputation, tried and failed medicine and then "mechanical" means, caused stillbirth, all without technically breaking any law): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abortion_in_the_United_States#...

Actually, it does: "arms" is a general term that describes weapons including the Ak47.

The problem with saying technological change invalidates the 2nd amendment, is that you have to also explain or accept that the 1st amendment only applies to letters written with a feather and a pool of ink.

Just to be clear, no SCOTUS case has yet stated that citizens are entitled to own fully automatic firearms, and it seems to me exceedingly unlikely that they would. Heller talks about how to decide what kinds of firearms can be prohibited, and strongly indicates that you can't ban 9mm handguns because they are the most popular firearm for self-defense and so on. It's hard to see how one can extend Heller and this case to say that you cannot prohibit fully automatic firearms.
The problem is that even if abortion rights are re-established on stronger footing in the future, a whole lot of people are going to get hurt in the meantime.
I lived in Sweden for a little bit, traveling around and into Norway and I can confirm this, at least partly.

Where it is not true is in large cities. Small cities and rural areas are one of the safest places on Earth as long as you don't get nibbled by a moose or overrun by ants.

As a point of fact, Americans can legally buy a "fully armed attack helicopter". They typically don't as a matter of practicality and cost, not theoretical ability. The paperwork is pretty nominal.

Most Americans don't realize that, at least until recently, you could buy a kilo of C4 with cash, no questions asked. It is outside the experience of most Americans to buy high explosives retail, but that's actually a thing depending on where you live.
Consider "I'm passionate about my kids. This weekend we're going ... ". Or "I was the shy one of the kids at the kibbutz."

Or are you looking for "I'm a real nerd. I love programming in my free time. When I was a kid, I was a real Trekker."

Bear in mind that, in the US, letting non-job-related information influence your judgement may be a violation of the Civil Rights Act. And looking for people with a history and background you easily relate to might make you more likely to overlook even more competent people from other backgrounds.

Or are you really instead looking for people who have read up on how to prepare for interviews, and therefore have an answer for this already planned, and one which conveniently happens to match the job position?
I ported my number from Google Voice to Google Fi and lost all the SMS messages sent/received while using the number with Voice.

Pace v. Alabama said equal protection was not sufficient. Perez v. Sharp and Loving v. Virginia require both equal protection and due process, the latter of which is now in question.

(It's all bullshit! The court will rule ideologically how they want, regardless of precedent.)
Courts should be the most liberal part of a government. Otherwise the will of the majority is total and the minorities get royally screwed. Now, the sc is looking like the least liberal part, dragging existing laws and precedents down. Will be ugly. And now, it’s fair game when things reverse to rule the shit out of the 2nd amendment. Sauce for gander.

Want a gun, sign up for the militia.
That's Common Law 101 for you: rights are not "given", they are "discovered".

Pretty much as Newton's laws existed before Newton, the "rights" exist regardless of the laws (so is the philosophy underlying Common Law). The legislature can "discover" these laws, or — failing that — a judge can.
Another possible solution: Government enacts a law that telecom companies MUST ensure that SenderID is valid for the company that sends the SMS.
the supreme court did not ban abortion. It removed abortion as a legal right. It means people cannot use the power of the federal government to overrule their own state legislature on the topic of abortion.

If you understand how the US Government works, then you understand that the Supreme Court cannot establish ANYTHING by removing laws. (ie overturning previous decisions).

What the Supreme court did was allow for the POSSIBILITY of a fully Catholic US State to practice Catholic religion with respect to abortion. It ALSO allows a fully Jewish state to practice Jewish religion however they want with respect to abortion.

They actual problem caused by overturning Roe v Wade is that some states who's laws are already catholic will regain the power to stop abortions in their state. That's it. California, New York, etc, are absolutely and completely unaffected by this decision, for example.
I have not experienced these issues myself, but I don’t doubt that experimental software is tricky.

> It isn’t about religion. It’s about power and control. We need to stop pretending it has anything to do with Jesus and everything to do with power over others. Nietzsche is more relevant here than Jesus.

We, as a society, need to stop constantly creating straw men like this.

Opposition to abortion is certainly about religion, or at least morality. Sure some politician can exploit morality to cynically gain power to accomplish other things, but that doesn't mean the voters are doing that. The voters are just caught in (many) moral dilemmas, and are therefore forced to make bad choices.
It's an interesting sub-case of Dunning-Kruger that people with consciences and integrity try to shame people like Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito about hypocrisy. They project onto them attributes they do not care about; their logic is that Loving impacts Thomas and Griswold, Olbergefell, and Lawrence do not. They dislike gay people and feminists, and things that hurt them are good. Things that hurt them are bad. Just look at the stunning hypocrisy on Bruen. It says in plain English: "well regulated militia", and they can't infer a right to regulate firearms by states there... but they can't find a right for a basic medical procedure in the Due Process Clause. I'm not being uncharitable, just read the majority decision. They can't hide behind inconsequential dissents now, their shitty jurisprudence is front and center. They can't argue on merits, so they appeal to a prior history that never existed. It is an embarrassing episode for those of us that follow Supreme Court decisions, and it's a tragic episode for those whose human rights they are taking away (and their loved ones).
We don't really, here in Europe. WhatsApp is the main communication method.. I think SMS is still so popular in the US because it's a fallback for iMessage. But here the levels of iPhone users are much lower.

So for me 2fa is pretty much the only thing I still use SMS for. Which makes a suspicious sms stand out a lot more.

I wish we'd stop using it for 2fa though because it was never meant to be hardened for this.
If you're using it for documents just get a laser printer. I have a brother laser sitting next to me. I bought a replacement toner when I got it 7 years ago. I'm 10% into the first toner cartridge. It doesn't really go bad either and the toner is reasonable. It also prints super fast and reliably.

For real world prints I just go to walgreens or now more likely to use a digital frame. My mom with memory issues LOVES her digital frame even more than photo albums as she can sit there watching it rotate through her memories. She has boxes of albums in her room but forgets they're there.

That's only because Binance is just operating as an unregulated bank there. It is also extremely easy to lose all your money that way because the coin you chose to transact in plummeted, or the exchange decided to freeze your account, or the exchange becomes insolvent and decided to halt withdrawals, or your country decided to start blocking that exchange due to massive fraud, or you simply lose your private keys...
On the one hand: Mifepristone + Misoprostol, you can get them mailed to you anywhere in the country, even if abortion is illegal in your state. https://twitter.com/AidAccessUSA

On the other hand: I support impeaching these five justices for their deception claiming it was settled law before they were confirmed, rescinding a constitutional right purely for religious reasons, and thus violation of trust. This is the proper civil mechanism for accountability. And making Roe a federal statute.

The great part about having your rights defined by legislature is that they can flip-flop every two years.
The majority also said in congressional testimony that Roe was settled, and then changed their minds when they had the power to overturn it.

The Java benchmark in the readme is not really fair: the chensort implementation uses multiple threads, while the comparison to claim xxx times faster is done with Arrays.sort (=single threaded).

* Comparing chensort with Arrays.parallelSort for an array with random values and chensort is slower on my machine
* When using an array that contains a lot of duplicates, Arrays.sort is 30 times faster than chensort on my machine
* When using an array that is almost sorted, Arrays.parallelSort is 2 to 3 times faster on my machine

It is probably useful to consider acronyms as no more and no less than technical vocabulary.

In any technical discipline, there is a vocabulary that practitioners use to communicate efficiently.

For example "op-amp" in electrical engineering for operational amplifier.

Note that "operational amplifier" doesn't explain any more of the important engineering factors to a lay person than "op-amp."

To explore those important engineering distinctions, googling "op-amp" is as useful as "operational amplifier" (or maybe more so).

As for the style guide, there's only one Google, and people have to be well paid to follow it.

Practically speaking it makes sense to accept that, if you are curious, you won't understand most of what you read but that you will understand more of it over time if you keep at it.

Unfortunately, over time if you are a curious person you will also not understand things you once read and understood simply because you haven't been in the context for a few years.

These are the blessings and curses of continuing to learn as you age.

Good luck.
I think that they're saying more like we are setting our priorities in the wrong order. Before we deal with the problem of AI sentience (which most people say is still very far away), let's deal with AI bias:

> There’s an urgent need to respond to the many real and well-documented problems with these systems that already exist — and for those responses to be driven by society, not big tech.

It's a good point. Assuming AI sentience is inevitable do you want a racist and sexist sentient?

For use as a router, though, those are not necessarily better. The J4125 is more than capable of routing way more than 1 gbps, while running several services. And as the STH review points out, the N5105 in that unit has a bit more oomph but also uses quite a bit more power, which is IMO important for an always on or portable router. J4125 also isn't that old, it's a Q4 2019 SKU which has the added benefit of making it cheaper.
Is it? I have never had anyone “censor” me for using cash, I don’t even know how that would work. Yes if you’re trying to send money covertly over the internet you could use crypto for that - but you will have to interact with financial institutions to get the crypto and the recipient will have to interact with financial institutions to turn the crypto into real money, so why not just use the financial institutions to send the real money in the first place?
Yes. I couldn’t imagine if a party had all 3 branches in control. So leaving more rights to states and not forcing them on the entire nation is going to be better.

You can vote in your state for reps that support your cause. Don’t like it? Move elsewhere.

People are doing exactly the same. Florida being one of the top states with influx of people from other states, specifically California.

You obviously haven't read a bible to any depth.

God talks about "nations" being in the womb of Rebekah. He opened/close the womb of Rachel and of others in scripture.

Samson was a Nazerite "from the womb".

Job says that God "made him" in his "mother's womb".

I could go on and on. Please read up on this some more, your argument is very ignorant of what scripture actually says about this.
