There are a lot of platforms built on this premise, and most of them are plagued with stuff like this. In fact I'd say that, if you want real engineers on your market, keeping wildly-unrealistic-expectations listings out is probably the core problem.
I think the theory was that Hulu and Disney+ simply couldn't execute on streaming.

Turns out, when billions are on the line, they could actually.
A Baratza Encore burr grinder retails new for $170, but you can get one in great shape on eBay for $50-70: https://www.ebay.com/itm/325267513385

I can't even fathom what you'd get for $675. What does it do?
While generally true, my feeling is this law doesn't hold for many people here. Arch, fluxbox, st, tmux, vim, mutt, ... My system boots up in seconds and is extremely snappy, even on 10 year old hardware.
Okay, thanks for the correction. I appreciate the transparency about there being holes, and I totally get that it’s a beta as well. I know what you’re doing isn’t easy either — there’s plenty of room for mistakes and learning.
I agree, but I am not surprised.

Today's writing about politics mostly seems much more convoluted, bloodless and meaningless.

I don't think that the main reason for that is with the writer though.

I think the reason is the "triumph of liberal democracy" or capitalism.

We have invented a pretty robust sugar-coat for the interests of the powerful.

Nowadays, we even call some of our exploitation schemes "eco-friendly".

This brings up an interesting point. If you have a secondary server do this operation as opposed to the browser, the only thing that has changed from the receiver's point of view is the source IP.

So maybe privacy protecting browsers will start to do double loads:
1. First to get the real URL
2. Next to do the browsing with the association information stripped from the URL/cookies/etc
The hint was in the "decent".

The decent espresso machine is more than $3,000. You'll also need to acquire a grinder, usually around $1,000.
You can also make a bookmarklet that loads Google Translate into the page. It isn't quite as nice as the auto-detect in Chrome but very close.

With the new offline translation support I actually prefer this setup as I can try the local translate first, then if the quality is bad or the language isn't supported I can make the decision if I want to upload the page to Google.
> Cigarettes were $5 / pack.

I quit in 1980 ($0.65/pack).

They are now close to $15/pack, in NY. I know, because I have a family member that still smokes.

This does not even touch the cost to health.
Drop me a line when you get time.
I think the difference is pretty obvious. But maybe it is not. The important context is that, in your example, those left handed people haven't been kept out of power and influence in society for generations.
The growing interest in retrocomputing is making old programming books invaluable, especially those about 1970s and 1980s microcomputer systems and languages. For example, I'm reading lots of books about Intel 8080 and Z80 Assembly programming, as well as CP/M.
That is what you would expect for CPI inflation. Bailout for companies and the rich would not increase consumption of e.g. food or gas much; newly-printed money going to consumers via whatever means would, though. Bailouts for the "rich" would just increase prices of assets, so the only CPI impact you'd expect would be in housing, maybe.

It's not like printing money and "helping people" has not been done a bunch in the past - it always works out the same way, to a different extent depending on other circumstances. To some extent, e.g. minimum wage laws could be beneficial... inflation+redistribution where the gains in wages for the poorest outstrip the resulting inflation that only affects those whose earnings didn't increase because they were already well above the new threshold, I guess? According to this article, we appear to be well beyond that point.
I just tried Scratch to make a quick little animation and I must say that it's actually pretty amazing. I've known about it for close to a decade but never really tried it out. I just spent a few minutes playing around and I was amazed by how easy it was to program a simple little animation.
As someone who is unlucky enough to live in Russia, VPN is now more or less a necessity to access information around Putin's internet censorship.

However, while using it I've found some unlikely virtues of using VPN:

- I'm never offered ads based on my location

- Services like Google are not suspicious of your logins and don't bother you with additional 2fa measures. Previously it could be a real pain if you are abroad without your regular phone service and Google really wants you to enter that code it sent you over SMS.
Ah that's fair enough.

I've actually been thinking about different ways of adding exactly that to a static site - technically you could have something like a comments form that just writes to a text file somewhere (perhaps updating a Gist with the API you mentioned[1]), which the static site reads from upon page reload.

Sounds a bit inelegant I guess, but could be interesting to implement.

What I usually do these days is subscribe to a streaming service when I want to watch something then immediately cancel my sub. If I need to extend that it’s a couple button presses away. I generally find I do not. The only service that sucks with this is Netflix, as they often delete inactive accounts.
I don't work a lot with React or Flutter, but there have been few times I've run into show stopper issues getting older projects with older dependencies (mainly Python) running on M1. It's an incredible machine for the price though.
My experience is that taking pictures is only worth it if you print them quickly and put them in an album with comments. I and my daughters will very often grab a photo album randomly in the living room and enjoy remembering those moments. The digital albums? They only serve as a backup thanksfully synched remotely in case my house burn.

Normal non pro photographs human beings have very little energy to organize/tag/process their pictures, they mostly lie forgotten until google photos remember them of those moments, more often than not showcasing the ugiest badly framed photos.
Can't echo this enough.

I've been railroaded into using Facebook 2 or 3 times by friends, family and even my SO, and my experience each and every time was a soulless one like yours. It was just a non-stop stream of people and their friends reposting shallow things they found on the Internet, inspirational quotes, and political garbage. And if people did comment, they were just brief quips - probably just enough effort to try to manipulate others to like+comment back on their own content.

Email and phone's all I need. If people can't put in the effort to remember or catch up with me, even if it's just every few months, then they're not my friend.
A lot of stuff is loaded from the same host as the content. For example, a DNS blocking solution like NextDNS can't block YouTube ads without breaking the videos (same with ads on Google Search and many other sites). It also can't apply cosmetic filters to block things like cookies popups or hide empty spots where ads are supposed to be displayed.

DNS blocking is better than nothing, but it's very basic when compared to a browser extension like uBlock Origin.
Bradford Hill Criteria for Causation
You should run a poll on that income assumption.
Pretty sure it's meant to be parsed as "(mass shooting and terrorism) rate": that is, he's claiming that the rate of mass-shootings and the rate of terrorist atrocities are both increasing. I don't know whether either part of that is true, but if it's wrong what's wrong isn't that "mass shooting" is singular.

(And if, as grandparent claims, suicide rates are "steady [] despite massively increasing spending on it", that does seem like evidence of something getting worse. Again, I don't know whether it's actually true and I wouldn't be surprised if it weren't, but the criticism here doesn't seem fair.)
Core-MATH: a pathway towards mandatory correct rounding in the next IEEE-754 std
Are extensions and their settings shared across all containers?

One thing I love about Chrome/Edge profiles is being able to different extensions enabled/disabled and configured differently across them.

For example, I have a "private" profile that always runs windscribe vpn and other privacy-heavy extensions that I might not necessarily want running on my "base" profile.
In my experience "IDE lockin" is terrible to work with in the long run. After 5+ years trying to compile old Visual Studio or Eclipse projects is a horrible experience.
A lot of people (especially software devs) seem to have zero ethical quandaries over completely ripping off other people's designs, mechanics or ideas without even so much as giving attribution to the original source that directly inspired them.

I feel like these are the same people that are absolutely losing their shit over something like github copilot though. Cognitive dissonance is fun.

Fortunately, prose is doing the right thing by giving credit where credit is due. Sadly this is typically the exception rather than the rule.
Roger that. Fusion is irrelevant - I did not mention it.
Remember, the gaslighters want you to feel crazy for noticing these things, when in fact it's a very rational reaction to have. Remember, they imply that you are the crazy one for mistrusting government, and all past incidents that show government (and the pharmaceutical industry) are not to be trusted are to be merely handwaved away.

It was, quite frankly, a psyop of the highest order. And they're still pushing it, even in this thread.
OP was probably referring to https://twitter.com/fuxianyi/status/1545668143816839170?

But then the person tweeting this has been making the same argument since 2014. So the recent leak could have just been confirmation bias for him.
That's basically what the Laravel stack does for PHP. It's great, very ergonomic, I'd use it all the time if not for having to write PHP which I don't wish to do anymore.
Most game engine's don't require you to download the entire game at once. Loading assets dynamically is always an option. However, it's pretty nice to be able to do something like `engine.getAsset("blah")` and have it immediately return you something.
Why Fed is not fighting with inflation? With 1.5% interest rate and 9.3% inflation it is clear Fed wants to keep high inflation, but why?
>Grammarly is $150/year!! How is that not egregious?

I don't personally find Grammarly useful. But I know people who swear by it and, if it's an application that helps you write maybe every day, $150/year is nothing.

I pay more than that for Lightroom which I also use a lot.

More than that for The New York Times which I read daily.

Etc.

There's definitely a subscription version of "Does it bring you joy?" But there seems to be almost a moralistic pushback on paying for software/services things that you find useful.
I would pay $100 for fully customizable keyboard shortcuts in Firefox. Especially if they were Vim-like or could bind arbitrary JavaScript to a key.

I miss vimperator so much.
I’ve had this thought a few times, but am pretty entrenched in 1Password with hundreds of logins. I’m curious if you know about a good migration tool to get these into the Apple password manager?
How did you implement "sleep"? For timing the effects?

I see a 'get_precise_time' command. I guess you could poll that, if you aren't worried about power use. (LEDs using far more power than your CPU.)
I love their work and their art style - and it's so refreshing to see that they are using their own minimalistic tools to create the presentation.
Huh, that seems like a pretty rare offer!

Some of the more affordable providers that I know of:

Hetzner 1 TB storage VPS: €3.45/month
Time4VPS 1 TB storage VPS: €6.65/month (with yearly billing)
Contabo 1.4 TB storage VPS: €12.99/month

So Hetzner can be €41/year (though taxes vary) for a single TB, but all other providers that I know of cost at least twice the amount of money or so.
I just can't figure out one thing: why would one ever want to buy a Twitter subscription?
> I don't understand, 1,700 per year is nothing.

Welp, good for you for getting the money to roll on in and not be able to understand that most people aren't in that position. Median income, at least in the US, is ~$30k.

$1700 is significant for the majority of folks, not just in the US, but the World. $1700 spent purely on coffee each year is also laughable and/or outrageous to most, when that could cover rent for 1-4 months.

...the hubris on HN lately, regarding high personal income, is too much...
It really isn't.

The reason I don't want to use Facebook is it's against my principles and ethos. What's my family's reason for not wanting to use Signal?

(I'm not the parent poster.)
Nobody said this was progress. This is clearly disgusting.
No moderators flagged or even saw your posts. Users were flagging them.

I've seen them now, though, and what you did in that thread was egregiously abusive. Moreover, you've been using HN primarily for political/nationalistic battle. We ban such accounts, for obvious reasons (they destroy what this site is supposed to be for) and I've therefore banned your account.

If you don't want to be banned, you're welcome to email hn@ycombinator.com and give us reason to believe that you'll follow the rules in the future. They're here: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html.

Background:

Floating-point numbers form a finite set. It is thus impossible for them to represent all real numbers. The correct rounding of a real number x is the unique floating point number that is closest to x, according to a user-chosen definition of "closest" (possibly always rounding up or down, and including precise rules for ties). IEEE-754 is the standard for floating-point maths, followed by most programming languages. It mandates correct rounding for elementary operations (+, -, ×, ÷), but not for transcendental functions (exp, log, sin, cos,...), or at least that is the situation in practice now (the truth is a bit more subtle, see Q3 in FAQ link below). Correct rounding for transcendental functions was generally thought to require arbitrary precision arithmetic and hence to be prohibitively expensive. Still, if performance is not the priority, it is attainable (the MPFR library does it, and at arbitrary precisions, not just 32 and 64 bits).

The main practical advantage of correct rounding is the uniqueness of the return value for math functions (for every input, there is at most one possible correct output). For debugging, it is amazing to have bit-for-bit reproducibility across builds, compilers, hardware and platforms. With incorrect rounding, instead, every implementation does it differently, and we lose reproducibility across platforms. Worse, every time the maths library (e.g. libc/libm) is updated (say, fixing a performance bug in a corner case), we can also get slightly different answers.

Recently, there has been a renewed push for fast correctly-rounded transcendental functions (see, e.g., RLIBM and CRLIBM). Verifying correctness is fairly straightforward for 32-bit float functions with one argument, because we can perform complete enumeration over inputs, then check outputs with MPFR. Proofs for correctly-rounded 64-bit float functions can be much more involved.

CORE-MATH is an attempt to create a repository of math functions that are

- open-source and permissively-licensed

- correctly-rounded

- fast enough to be a drop-in replacement for standard library functions

- API-compatible with standard library functions (wrt. rounding modes in particular)

- at various bit widths, mostly 32 for now, but also 64, 80 and 128 bits.

Crucially, CORE-MATH is not a library. Their objective is explicitly to get the code from the repository included into other libraries. Their long-term objective (see abstract in paper link below) is to get to a point where fast correctly-rounded implementations are available for all transcendental functions. Then, the IEEE-754 standard committee could consider mandating correct rounding for everything in the next revision of the standard.

I continued communicating with those I cared about via standardized technologies. Those who communicated back in kind I still keep up with. Those for whom this was a bridge too far, are no longer in my life. Maybe they weren't ever really important to me, which made it easy for me to drop them? Or maybe they were, but I was never important to them? It doesn't really matter; they're not in my life anymore, and I'm okay with that.
I misspoke (and updated my comment).
How does one forget about a subscription? Doesn't everyone periodically review charges to their credit cards and bank withdrawals to make sure they make sense, and to pay bills that are due? If not, how do you know day-to-day how much money is available in your account or discover fraud? I'd be bouncing checks left and right if I didn't keep a close eye on my balances.

> Flint wouldn't have happened to a city of rich black people.

Bizarre statement since no such thing exists. Previous attempts at creating a rich black city were met with violent white supremacy. The possibility a black community could be rich enough to buy influence to prevent its municipal water from being switched to a source that corrodes its water mains is so far removed from reality, it hardly seems useful to speculate on.

> the fact that the city proper has more POC is partially due to the impacts of racism

No, it’s entirely due to racism through explicit public policies such as redlining.
More like the center-left SPD failed to respond to the depression well (i.e. govern properly) and made alliances of convenience with the right and the Nazis to marginalize and ban Communists along with anyone else on the left.

That's how it's going to happen in the US, too: The governing center/center-left party expends all of its effort attacking the left, and becomes completely ineffective at governance through incompetence, corruption and self-dealing, losing the support of the voters. The far-right (rising in popularity) eats into the center-right through direct targeting of individuals and the rewards of conversion to a movement currently rising in popularity. Eventually a charismatic far-right speaker starts giving popular speeches indicting the corruption and incompetence of the governing center, probably during a deep economic crisis, and insisting that this corruption and incompetence is disarming the country in the face of the real existential threat that everyone from the far-right to the center-left agrees upon, which is the left. And the left is actually covertly foreign-based, funded by powerful Jews and enemy governments, so their opinions are actually a form of invasion. So we need to cleanse this country of the traitors, then take the fight to the countries that supported them.
Unchecked spread of viruses leads to less dangerous mutations because the more dangerous ones burn through victims too quickly for it to spread very far.

Same! I switched from FF to Brave a few months back, and I'm liking it a lot.

I miss a few features, but nothing major.
I should have been clearer. I’m saying it is ok that the expected comp is lower. If the other things add up for you, it’s not necessarily a bad deal. (But it can be, you have to evaluate with clear eyes)

Another way of thinking about this: developers aren’t really fungible , neither are roles.
Instead of fixing this behavior I would propose going further with it. Take it to an extreme. Turn the knob to eleven.
Thanks for your feedback and questions! We actually have a FAQ section on the homepage, but yeah it's quite tiny and easy to miss, and we definitely need a standalone page where we address many more questions.

1. That's an interesting question that we haven't yet considered. We personally only store the config for the dev environment in our main repo and manage the sensitive production config using k8s Secrets (while version controlling them in a separate repo), so we haven't really run into any issues regarding that. Is there a particular solution that you'd like to see on Algora?

2. Yep! The issue page of each bounty also displays who started a solution (and when), e.g. https://app.algora.io/algora/challenge/bounties/1. We're actually not a fan of having multiple developers compete for the same reward ourselves (though there are some good use cases for that as well).
Sorry, but if they weren't forced, coerced, or tricked/otherwise manipulated into into it, then they're not being "trafficked." There has been an attempt over the past several years, at least in the US, to redefined the meaning of the word to encompass all forms of sex work. To say that someone, working alone and of their own free will, is "being trafficked", is absolutely absurd and is what we were discussing.

I recently got a MacBook Pro with an M1 Max. So a little bit more powerful than what you're looking at. Overall I'm pretty happy with it.

I know a souped-up M2 (Likely a "M2 Max") is likely this year, but the difference between The original M1 and the M2 is so marginal that I doubt it's worth the wait for a hypothetical "M2 Max".

I must disagree.

Orwell is not the bible, or an if-by-whiskey politician. Everybody reads him differently because they're combining hearsay, random quotes and attributions.

If you read Orwell's essays or articles directly, he's extremely clear and unambiguous. The fact that people think Orwell agrees with them despite having polar opposite views is a testament to people's laziness, not Orwell's interpretability.

On capitalism as a belief system, Orwell was a critic. Not because of freedom, or lack thereof... but because he thought capitalist politics didn't offer enough hope. I can't find the quote but somewhere he goes into Socialist, Communist & even Fascist promises of a better future. Capitalism offered a very modest amount of hope on a very long timeline. Conservatism offered none, which is why (according to Orwell) Fascism succeeded it.
