> I was making a (what I thought was) very thinly-veiled commentary on the current political discourse regarding guns in the media.

Sure, but by doing that you were insinuating the only reason the author fought against guns in space (and won), was due to some irrational absolute fear of guns.

The point I was trying to make is that the drivers for that decisions were more nuanced - there are tradeoffs when allowing astronauts to carry guns: they need to be trained, there _is_ an increase in accidental or intentional gun discharge, procedures have to be developed and maintained regarding gun storage and usage, increased storage weight etc.

You can argue against each one of these cons (and you may well be right, although I don't think that would be immediately apparent), but that's beyond my point. My point was simply that the decision was more nuanced than "I'm irrationally afraid of guns".
Many examples here but “97% of hospital admissions are unvaccinated” was a complete fabrication. Basically they used statistics from when 97% of the population was unvaccinated and kept using them for months longer than they should have. When that wasn’t feasible anymore, they started counting unknown vaccination status as unvaccinated to keep the 97% lie going.

Ironically select ICUs report 90% of their cases are from fully vaccinated now.

The lobbying is real but it usually can only amplify real, existing fears. In central Europe those fears were largely sparked by Chernobyl.

There's a substantial age cohort in Germany who can remember when their parents wouldn't let them play outside, or remember the runs on iodine tablets - people who's earliest understanding of the word "nuclear" was either in reference to Chernobyl or to fears of nuclear armageddon.

We know now that Chernobyl was a big deal in the immediate vicinity and not that huge of a deal continent-wide. But the climate in those early days was one of fear - in the midst of the Cold War a massive nuclear accident of unknown real severity in an untrusted neighbouring country was blanketing the continent in an unknown amount of radioactive material.

You can make truthful and rational arguments until you're blue in the face but the issue is emotive - a lot of people's minds have been made up by frightening experiences early in life.
You can generate your HTML using a server-side template, and it is mostly just HTML.

> All 3 require some form of JavaScript library coupled with markup to build interfaces.

With HTMX you're typically including one static javascript file that you just download, you're not using any kind of javascript build system at all. Where it has very limited scope it's possible to imagine a browser that doesn't have javascript but that has HTMX built in.

Calling it a javascript library might be a bit much, I mean you're not typically installing this with node/npm, or minifying it, or importing it. You're just including it in a script tag at the bottom of your site. While they both do technically run on javascript I think they have more differences than things they have in common, and saying "Well they're both just javascript libraries" is a very sophomoric take. I mean you might as well just say that all javascript libraries are the same, and it doesn't matter what you use. So why choose react/vue over jquery?

> inefficiencies seen with React/Vue are largely an artifact of bad code/practices, not the libraries themselves.

Ehh, I'm sure you can make a fast bug-free website in server-side assembly if you're so inclined but it's probably not the right tool for the job. The question is what kind of design patterns do the libraries/tools encourage, not "can I do X with Y".

This reads like part of the comment section on a British tabloid. The german government took a stance against both nuclear and gas being labelled as "green", transitional sources of energy. Within the government, the SPD was in favor of Gas but not nuclear, the FDP was in favor of both, and the Greens were in favor of neither.Overall it doesn't fucking matter, because it was a vote in the European Parliament, an independent institution.

Again, did i say i don’t care? Are you trying to be constructive here or should i refer you to Reddit?

Exception handling matters. Your attitude towards these edge cases is likely damaging the argument that you and i both seem to agree on: allowing anon reviews is healthy, freedom of saying what you feel to be fair and true is important. The issue as i see it is if companies ask to let themselves self regulate via moderation of some form, yet allow damage to occur as that’s important to their business model, they have to expect courts and eventually public sentiment to shift perspectives. This is why i say, the attitude of not handling these exceptions well is dangerous and likely damaging to the objective of freedom of expression. The model needs improving to protect privacy yet prevent damage to private individual and businesses. News papers have been publishing retractions for hundreds of years, if it wasn’t for this their business would also have died long ago.
What's great about the Constitution and legislation of fair and equitable treatment of others, it has scales of economy always considered.

If you spend more than two weeks on the same hotel TV you'll need to add it as a home for that month. The policy doesn't apply to a phone or laptop that you bring with you.

If you're doing this it is a multi-thousand dollar trip and a single water bottle in the lobby will cost $3. You do not actually care about $3 though you may object in principle.

This policy targets casual password sharing among the working poor who don't know about VPNs. Whatever you think about that morally it does sound like they nailed the scope.

Sure, but in practice most people ignore the prototypal features, especially if they're using the "class" keyword, so it may as well not be prototypal. Which is good, because the distinctly prototypal pieces are usually bad behaviors to rely on. The wrong kind of magic.

The government is the one deciding what adversarial means here. Of course they’re not going to label themselves or domestic companies they regulate national security adversaries.
Most people understand that "far-right" in this context means that it allows white supremacists and nazis to use its platform. It's a far right platform in the same sense that any bar that doesn't kick out nazis on site becomes a nazi bar, or a bar where cops feel comfortable becomes a cop bar. Regardless of creator intention a single customer base can shift the entire purpose of a product.

As for what a moderate-right platform would be, I'd actually point right here at hackernews. It allows discussion around more right-leaning topics, but draws a clear line at outright hate. There's progressives too (hi) but you'll find no shortage of right leaning people either (like OP apparently). The sheer number of libertarians here alone is enough to move the needle right of center.
Well I'm glad to see a refute a day later. Much better than nothing

There are many billions of lines in Google's monorepo[1], summing well over 80 terrabytes of data. The paper below is from 2016, and the repo has only gotten bigger since then.

Exactly how many of them are C++ is not disclosed, as far as I know. But it is public knowledge that C++ is the biggest of Google's primary languages (C++, Java, Go, Python, Javascript, and so on).

You're right, I don't know what the future will bring. No one does. I'm speaking in probabilities, so like, the graphs converge around 2040-2050 for the date when the Singularity arrives (Ray Kurzweil and others have extrapolated Moore's Law). Same with the last of the coral reefs dying from global warming. The projections are almost all bad on the current course of human events, and predicted to get much worse as soon as a decade from now.

But, once the Boomers finally finish retiring in 5 years, things could improve rather quickly. They did the best they could in an impossible situation during the 20th century Cold War, but their solutions for the threats they perceive actively hinder progress against the looming global threats of the 21st century. Certain sins of capitalist neoliberalism, like using others for profit, may get left behind after the Global Awakening. More likely, I think the illuminati will put speed bumps along the way, so World War III or a Handmaid's Tale dystopia could just as easily send us back to the Dark Ages. I believe that we're alive at this time to witness the transition out of materialism (the Age of Pisces) into whatever comes next (the Age of Aquarius). Like learning to be a fish out of water. Turning into virtual energy beings, meeting aliens, who knows.

> If you have the option, ask your employer to make a direct deposit into your savings account so that the saved money is automatically set aside.

About 8 years ago, when I transitioned from a contractor to a full time employee, there was space for 3 accounts on the direct deposit form. I asked about it, and decided to use one for automatic savings. Since my salary has gone up significantly in the past 2 years, I should probably up that deposit, too.

> To avoid impulse purchases, make yourself what de Leon calls a "buy list." Put the items you desire on a list. Then, after a predetermined time (like a week or a month), if you still want that thing, go ahead and buy it.

I use a similar idea: if I think about buying something discretionary 3 times in 2 weeks, I'll probably buy it and I won't feel guilty about it. (see also the "Know that it's OK to treat yourself sometimes" point)

I also ask myself "Will this make my life $100 (or whatever the price happens to be) better?" I'm particularly sensitive about that when it comes to subscriptions and other monthly bills. Sure, gigabit internet would be cool, but I don't think it's worth an extra $30 a month over my ~250 mbit service that never gives me a problem.

And then you have other factors impacting a surface temperature including:

rainfall (you could probably spray the runway and it will cool down and be dry quickly…)

Length of day (we’re about 1 month past the summer solstice in the N. Hemisphere, and days are long in the northern latitudes)

Shade (unlikely on runways, they’re in the sun all day)

Wind (probably best anywhere on a runway unless it’s in a valley)

Entertainment monopolies are a bit harder to quantify, but look at how much Disney owns (https://www.titlemax.com/wp-content/uploads/every-company-di...). Numerous TV channels/production companies. Movie studios. Many, many popular franchises and they're adding to it all the time. It may not be a monopoly by the legal definition, but at what point should a company not have control of this much?

No, not really. I've worked all hats and never really seen much disconnect, except when there was no communication - which usually starts with ineffective (ignored) comments from the people not communicating. This usually implies the other team is not paying attention and should, before the complete disconnect happens.

yeah I've seen both front end (user interface) and developer (backend/hardware/...) groups do this. And slightly more often - but not exclusively - the latter.
Sometimes NDAs purport to cover things that NDAs cannot legally cover.

I think the real problem is not that things are nicer, but that everyone demands "The Best". Disneyland is "The Best" attraction - In the world. When I was a kid, plenty of people were happy to go to local theme parks. Now, everyone has constant access to "Best of" lists. Being #2 is good enough, but being #10 probably only nets you a fraction of the mindshare it used to.
I'm not saying its a bad thing actually.

I think its similar to running a bank, if you cannot protect the value (money) then you are not really a good bank. The problem is people have been pretending they are not a bank and trying to skirt protecting their customers for the better part of 20 years, especially in SaaS.

Most of this seems reasonably on point except for

> true OOP languages

Specifically the Java used as a example isn't exactly a "true OOP language" either; in a sense it's actually a very leaky imperative VM with implementation details like non-object Primitive Data Types and very visible and prominent imperative flow control structures.

Javascript is much closer to an actual "true OOP language" as, unless you're dealing with bad/naive bindings to other stuff in C, it's very hard to even get a handle of a non-object.
It's pretty bad -- I can't really find anything that works. VMs, storage, everything is hard down.
Show HN: Bookly, we use gamification to help people read more books

We started as a game studio(we are still making games) but had this idea running in my head for a while. There are apps that help you run more, that help you workout, or walk, and make a habit of all these physical activities, but there isn't one that helps you make a habit of reading. That is where Bookly came from. We took everything we learned in games and applied to reading, making it fun, engaging with a sense of progress.

Also the "old" might be "relative", the minimum hardware requisites are:

https://support.google.com/chromeosflex/answer/11552529?hl=e...

Minimum device requirements:

Architecture: Intel or AMD x86-64-bit compatible device

RAM: 4 GB

Internal storage: 16 GB

Bootable from USB drive

BIOS: Full administrator access. You’ll need to boot from the Chrome OS Flex USB installer and make some adjustments in the BIOS if you run into issues.

Processor and graphics: Components made before 2010 might result in a poor experience.

Note: Intel GMA 500, 600, 3600, and 3650 graphics hardware do not meet Chrome OS Flex performance standards.

Worse, they have been calling the location of a pointer to a subroutine that handles an interrupt a "vector" - the word which was originally used to refer to the entire set of such locations. (Curiously, this usage is similar to how the word "sector" is used to refer to a physical record on a disk - simply because it usually comes last in the coordinate triple (cylinder, track, sector). This would be like calling a point in the 3-dimensional space a "Z".)
The front page is just posts making fun of the president (acceptable), and tweets from Donald Trump (a patently treasonous figure, by any sane means of logic and reporting including the report made by mueller, who’s not a journalist), and Dinesh DSouza, a felon out and about only because of a pardon from above mentioned treacherer.

The first few paragraphs sum up a lot of stuff I was thinking for the last years or decade. Microsoft and Google are still scummy corporations and operate on bad faith and abuse their legal power to prosecute people for no reason other than loss aversion, as per the American status quo.
I believe mobile devices use active scanning instead of passive because it reduces battery usage. It reduces battery usage because it means the wifi radio does not need to be listening constantly for beacon frames.
