Here's what happened:

- Nupur Sharma, spokesperson of the governing party (BJP) mocks Prophet Mohammed on National TV saying that he had sex with a 9 year old. She then justifies it saying she was quoting the Hadith (Islamic religious texts).

- ZooBear on Twitter brings attention to the issue, via his channel AltNews

- India gets international condemnation, Gulf countries are pissed

- India apologizes to various Gulf countries and calls Nupur Sharma a "fringe element"

- Muslims in India are still very, very angry. There are widespread calls to behead Nupur Sharma.

- Two people get murdered (one beheaded and the video streamed) for supporting Nupur Sharma on Social Media

- Now it's Hindus' turn to be pissed; they want ZooBear arrested (using whatever laws they can find)

- They dig up ZooBear's own old social media posts, file cases against him using blasphemy laws, and he gets arrested

- The govt is pissed too; so they try to lock ZooBear up under various laws, such as laws pertaining to how international donations need to be accounted

- The police ask RazorPay to hand over a list of people who have donated to AltNews, under Section 91 of the Code Of Criminal Procedure

- They comply.

How long can my compile be, before throttling begins? Say using 4 cores? 2 minutes? 5 minutes?
Do you mean common noun instead of pronoun?
I'm pretty sure that's EUR/USD exchange rate, not inflation. I bought the first gen when it came out, base model, for $1199. The price today, for 2nd gen base model, is $1199.

Not sure what you mean, how does email help me follow low traffic IRC channels?
This is correct. If the only cookies used are for site functionality, i.e. logging in to post, then no cookie banner is needed.

A cookie banner is only needed it there are extra cookies for other purposes other than site-functionality, or are collected by third party sites/scripts.

SO many sites threw up the banner by default when the law was initially brought it because it was easier then trying to work out if it was needed or not.
What you're describing isn't necessarily corruption. It sounds more like incompetence paired with worrying more about appearances than actual results.
You are missing the point, I am not trying to say that Muslims achieved more in empirical science than Europe, I would be an idiot to suggest that. I am saying, it is pathetic for a winner to feel the need to say a lot of nonsensical stuff about other people.
This reminds me of yesterdays "I'm disabled and out of money. Now what?" post. Where an ex founder and developer had problems working half time and earning their living costs of $1500/month.

Multiple people asked why they don't do remote work via UpWork. And the poster answered none of them.

Here it confuses me even more.

Why would someone with coding skills work for 350USD/month?

Can't you work remotely for $XX/hour?
> Johnny Ive doesn’t dictate things around Apple anymore but the silicone chips team now does.

Then how come we never read about those hardware devs, and get only story after story about Ive?

My guess: those hardware devs are just faceless pawns that get replaced as soon as they start having opinions about product design.
This convinced me that the HN upvote button should throw confetti.
Stop building your MVP before figuring out 7 essential things
Curious to think why they opted for Go and not C++ for the core engine, where there are lots of batched mathematical calculations.

If you want to eventually leverage SIMD and GPGPU computation C++ is almost mandatory, languages like Rust/Nim/Zig are getting there but still behind in many areas.
Hell no to the power of fuck you. There's no way I'm allowing apps access to my phone's lock screen. The only thing I want on my LS is my name, the time, and a little message for anybody trying to unlock my device without my consent: "Judicial warrant or GTFO!"
This is complete nonsense because we know from experience in other countries (UK, Australia) that massively restricting private ownership of firearms is a reliable way to put a stop to mass shootings. In fact it’s the only one found yet.

I’m not American and it’s not my fight but you should be at least aware of reality.
But not your pool pump. If you have an old pool pump then you should definitely consider replacing it with a modern one as they function better, more reliably, and use far less energy.
Save yourself a step and read the Illuminatus! trilogy first.

There's a clear lineage of bonkers conspiracy theories getting more popularly approachable from Illuminatus! to Foucault's Pendulum to Dan Brown.
> Inaction is a choice too

Only in the narrow situation where you know all possible outcomes and have a sufficient time to consider them. In the real world, given a limited amount of time and ignorance of many details, inaction is not even remotely the same as action.
AWS at least provides serial console access so have the option to access it during the boot cycle.

Alternatively, you umount the drive, attach it to another machine, chroot into it, fix grub or whatever, reverse the process and boot again. It's a few steps, but can be done in a few minutes with practice.
More specifically, the users' motivations. It seems like they've all got some kind of manifesto or politically motivated target. How are they getting full of such bile? How are they getting the same glamorous "solution" in their head?

It feels like a serious mental health crisis, spurred on by media saturation psychosis. Turning the country into the equivalent of a padded room will not address the root problems of why our society is very sick.

I expected more from the article when it started framing things statistically. It had the right paradigm to look at many factors, and ponder whether they could be causal. But nope, it was easier to parrot the simplistic party line solution that circles the wagons of one political team while increasing polarization with the other.
Think Differently would also be grammatically correct in English. But Think Different was what Apple went with. When you write, you make the decisions.

Another way to think about this is that when introducing a friend you wouldn't say, "Hi, this is the Kelly." You'd say, "Hi, this is Kelly."
neutrality in the face of bigotry seems like alignment, or at least it's a sign of a larger problem which you've very clearly laid out.

I think it's time to consider Boycotting, divestment and sanctions of India since it's flat-spinning into the clutches of full-on fascism.

Very sad.
Do you just want a wish list? How about configurable garbage collectors, cacheable JIT outputs, or a standardized bytecode format to facilitate language interop?
Thanks for offering this service!

You explain your API offers historic data using the "past_days" parameter. Could you also offer a "date" parameter for a given day, or are you only keeping a rolling window of data?
The 16" Macbook pro I bought in 2019 has been a source of constant irritation to me - unexpected fan thrashing, overheating, the usual stuff - and the performance and low cost of the new M1-based MacBooks has done nothing to improve my mood.

> but why does it have to be IRC?

Because IRC works. It's open, battle tested and has huge support by an endless amount of tools and documentation. There is not much reason to not use if all you wanna do is chat.

> I like being able to paste code into chat and have it syntax highlighted

> I like being able to ping people so that they get a notification on their phone

> Occasionally, I like to send a GIF.

That's the job of your client, not the communication-protocol.
Apple scans apps, code, as does Google.

But what if an Apple employee works for the FBI? Large firms are known to have moles in them, both from competitors, and from government.

That's not "low grade" corruption. It's the plainest form of corruption conducted en masse and in a highly organized fashion. When an arm of the government can take your property without due process, any suspicion towards them is warranted.

With regards to this new app, I wouldn't be surprised if this becomes a way to tap into every phone in the country.
> Why isn't the internet more fun and weird?

Because everything is complicated now. To code your own website you have to learn hundreds of hours of web technologies. There is no clear way and a lot of old, now wrong, advice in old blog posts. This limits the creativity that can be expressed a lot and is probably the main reason why "everyone" is now using "platforms".

> Keep focusing on the tool, and not the user. It's like the definition of insanity at this point.

You mean the insanity of giving anyone that wants one a weapon that can easily murder dozens of people at a whim? Yes. That is insanity. There is no reason whatsoever that anyone needs weapons like.
No.

I just became a fan of LineageOS. I don't think they will, but if they do this, I'm going back to dumbphones.
There was a moral panic about kidnapped children in the '80s that resulted in parents getting their kids fingerprinted. The macabre side of it is that it wasn't for reuniting living kids... Very many children who can talk (i.e. 8 years old) would be able to describe their parents to the cops well enough to track them down from phone book data. It was really useful data for identifying John and Jane Doe corpses though.

That is what rule 0 is about. It allows the GM to overrule everything, including a clear, boolean die roll.

I really don't think there is any excuse to allow something to pass in the game that will make the game a miserable experience for any of the players, and that the rules say so is the weakest excuse I can think of, given that the rules are executed by humans, not machines, and most of the rules are violated or forgotten, or hacked, or simply left unused, anyway.
Show me one thing that's been built or created with this "tool"
Interesting. A few q's as an Excel performance nerd who's fooled around in Pandas:

* Why the design choice to tie the calc engine directly to a DB vs computing dependencies and returning values post-facto?
* How does vectorization scale when using "volatiles" like offset-style formulas that may dynamically change the calc graph?

Every time I tried to recreate stuff in Excel in Pandas/Numpy, 1:1 multiplication wasn't the issue, the weird dependencies that prevented using their vectorized capabilities were.
Yeah, naming each translation with a key is definitely the way to go. Apps are full of buttons and labels and short sentences so context is absolutely necessary.
Yes, that's exactly where we are going.
Next week, we will release a video to explain the technical architecture.
A small chance is better than no chance. I was answering to the privacy concern, not the effectiveness of the method. It seems like a plausible business model to professionally collect hold biometric data encrypted with the owner's keys, opaque to the party storing the data.

It's a bit like the businesses that store umbilical cord stem cells for the very unlikely chance they'll be useful at some point in the future.

The Illuminatus trilogy is pretty avant garde in style, whereas Foucault's Pendulum is fairly standard prose. Really depends on what type of book you want.
> One parent told me they take it one step further and they won't use passenger door to put their children in the car. Instead, they reach through the car from the driver's door. This way they don't have to walk around the car which would allow someone to take their child.

This is borderline mental illness.
When people praise China they often fail to realise that getting gdp/capita to that of China would actually result in dramatic economic decline in their own countries. People used to praise USSR economic growth and industrialisation while completely ignoring the fact that the whole thing was only possible because of western tech and financed via the holodomor.

The tool itself is dangerous and provides very small benefit. Cars are also dangerous but are too useful to consider banning or restricting. Guns don’t provide nearly enough benefit to justify the harms they cause. I’d like to see the US get a handle on its gun problem because most gun crimes in Canada are now committed with guns smuggled across the border. So your barbaric policies have real world consequences for my country.
They aren't zero-context; all the value that you attach to a human life is context. If you don't grant anything else, you are just choosing one cartoon line-drawing over another. Certainly you are free to look at it this way, but it isn't really a useful point of view in a discussion about the hypothetical consequences.
I think neither does your answer. 90% of currently under-development frameworks will remain niche. Plus, the "after hours" part is really what does it for me. If I need it on the job, that's where I'll learn it.
Yes, absolutely, but it's in the same vein. In the past, to create content you had to go through some things.

I still remember being on the phone with Network Solutions for an hour to activate my first domain. They asked for my password... Over the phone.... Now content creation is easy and, yes, automated.
I believe it's staggered across hours by default and it seems that Canonical might have been able to at least stop pushing out the bad update even before they had a fix
There were no transactions originating outside India, the payments were configured to accept only Indian cards.
Unfortunately there's not much that can be done with the situation. An entity that pays well can get away with insolence. No matter how poorly they treat their employees, there will always be a long list of people willing to put up with it. They hold a lot of power in this interplay.

Now this becomes a problem when the entity is also big, because the effects spill over into the rest of the ecosystem. Thousands upon thousands going through this place pick up bad habits and spread it elsewhere. Worse yet, these habits are looked up to because they are coming from a powerful place.

I think the lesson at the end of the day is we should not let any entity grow that big and powerful. It's a huge imbalance in society and as individuals it's in our best interest to prevent these structures in the first place.
I second this and for anything other than "need to fetch a file or two occasionally" it's essentially broken in my mind. Expect to wait anywhere from 3 - 30 seconds for first byte. When modern CDNs are doing first byte in 100ms (or whatever) over HTTPS that's an eternity for most users.

Virtually all IPFS storage and bandwidth from pinning and gateway providers is at least 2-3x what you'd expect to pay for S3, etc (because they just use S3 on the backend). The public IPFS gateways have such low request limits and especially poor performance they often struggle to load a website with more than a couple of IPFS hosted assets on it.

If you want to run your own node go-ipfs is extremely difficult if not impossible to use at anything more than toy scale. Eats RAM like crazy, uses a TON of bandwidth (not unexpected but still seems like a lot), garbage collection is broken, and much more...

Frankly the state of IPFS is embarrassing considering it's seven year old tech.
What is your strategy for storage? It seems that because you're offering this as SaaS, your customers both set a high bar for durability of their data and your COGS would be very high if you just kept a sheet this big in memory all the time.

Do you have any plans for models which exceed the size that can be reasonably processed on one machine?
Pretty sure that Apple isn't manufacturing NAND chips. Now it might be hard to procure the 128GB chips, so Apple may be at the mercy of suppliers, or it might just be cheaper to buy a 256GB chip (and suffer slower perf).
I think reasonable people would be willing to talk if it wasn't so abundantly clear that any concession is taken as a permission to move goalposts even further. Once that conclusion is reached, the basic response is to say no.

And it goes for both sides. I can't even discuss abortion in a nuanced way, because I am expected to have opinion A and it cannot deviate an inch from its supporter.

But I agree with you in principle, everything should be on the table. That is how normal people deal with issues.
Alright, I'll bite.

Certain "tools" enable for mass killings, and killing is certainly the only thing they are designed for.

Criminals and people with mental issues may get their hands on an AR-15, but it would definitely be harder for them to do so if they are not available to the general public.

And we could do both. We could take care of people with mental illnesses, while not allowing them to carry semi-automatic rifles.
My point was to only release the information to the police if and when the kid needs to be located.
> compelled action of any kind, as it violates mutual consent.

So many of these questions are artificial, and it’s interesting how the legal system gets involved, but to a certain extent I think these questions are meant to describe a persons moral position outside of societies judgement of them. In many of these situations, it’s life and randomness that is putting these people into those situation, not producers of internet videos. I guess if you don’t feel bad your not morally responsible, but if someone was in distress I would feel _compelled_ to act.

I assume by compelled you mean by human forces but I can’t help but compare it to the notion that chance and ‘destiny’ often violate our consent, and compell us to action.

Anti-money laundering laws across the world record sender-reciever details out-of-the-box even though the transaction is as benign as buying a box of chocolates.

In this scenario, govt came back to collect information, which it asked razorpay to collect as part of book keeping.
Still to be honest, I never do, but that's mainly because I have a tightly knit group of players and I know what they want.

Although in the past I have one a few occasions, maximised "bleed", for the purpose of emotionally engaging my players. I believe this is probably a no-no nowadays.
I'd say the more clear correlation is social media. Not only can weak-minded people be pulled down various conspiracy rabbit holes that allow them to rationalize their actions, it's also never been easier to become "famous". Given that these shooters are almost always social outcasts craving extreme levels of attention/validation, social media lubricates their fantasies on both ends of the process. Plus the copycat factor from other mass shooters.

That said there's no doubt there's in my mind economic conditions contribute. The paths to middle class prosperity in the US are fewer and further between than they used to be. That deprives many of even the aspiration of a better life, leading to nihilism, which can be witnessed in many contexts outside mass shootings (what media is popular, sentiment polls, etc).

I also wonder if our Architecture itself contributes. A lot of bedroom community suburbs seem designed to create social isolation. They're just collections of crash pads for long commutes with no communal gathering places.
Singapore solved the problem with a massive public housing program (HDB) because in the 1960s Lee Kuan Yew was terrified of the domestic communist party's popularity.

The communists were (and always have been) pretty keen on building enough apartment blocks to house everybody.

PAP is not communist but is famously unafraid of ripping off opposition party policies at the same time as crushing them by more conventional means.

They did the same thing again in the 90s with a popular party set up to protest large class sizes in schools. They took the policy, watered it down a bit and then bullied the party into nonexistence.

Singapore kind of semi works as an authoritarian country in a way no others could because of the uncomfortable proximity of its people to its rulers brings accountability that wouldnt exist elsewhere: https://foreignpolicy.com/2013/05/13/naypyidaw-on-hudson-iso... but it's still largely run by thugs.
