Yup, I've been doing this for months. It seems like they recently removed the automatic commit feature from the app itself and instead moved it to this little script: https://github.com/logseq/git-auto
Though let’s add that the AppStore’s search functionality is worse than anything I can think of. Unless you literally enter the exact name of the app, there is a good chance it won’t list it.
An Android skin phone is not trying. Risking billions of dollars and years into R&D like Apple and Google did would be trying.
I went down that rabbit hole too prior to seeing your comment and I was pretty surprised that the french meaning seems to have evolved exactly the same way the english one did

No, it's a good idea both pragmatically and from a communications perspective.

Remember Hurricane Katrina? Names help.

Specifically now that we have a material climate change problem, it helps to give a name to the problem.

Snarkily, I vote for the first one to be 'Chevy Suburban'.
> Facebook cares a great deal about its users--advertisers.

> You and I aren't Facebook's users

A user is someone who uses a product, by any reasonable definition.

Advertisers are certainly (commercial) customers, but the average person IS a user of Facebook.

> we are the ore Facebook has been mining

This I do agree with, my own metaphor has been harvesting rather than mining (like in the Matrix or in Jupiter Ascending). But being something mined/harvested does not preclude also being a user.
Not really a "SpaceX" thing - it's been used on the Space Shuttle and many spacecraft since then. Also boats, cars, planes, etc. Heck, iMacs have used it since 2012.
You can also see it in HN comments. For example:

Ask HN: Show parent when editing comment?
[Ask Actual HN]

When you reply to a comment, you see that comment above the edit box.

Later when you edit your comment, you no longer see parent above the edit box.

Why can't the two UI's be exactly the same? The edit UI should look like the reply UI, just the edit-box pre-filled with the existing comment, and the button named [Update].

Also, showing the grandparent, if it exists, could be useful.

Or, the parent can be shown, and then all the ancestors, collapsed: click to open.

(Ideally, the edit/reply controls would just appear in place in the comment view, rather than navigate to a dedicated screen, but that may be far from the HN concept of implementation simplicity.)
People just use normal dating sites these days.
I would then argue that that's not cheating.

Cheating involves deception, the deception is telling your partner that they're your exclusive romantic interest when they're not. If everybody knows and everyone is fine with it, then there is no problem.
Sure, because GATTACA is totally the world we all want to live in. /s
Yeah Go does not do that. I don't think any lang does

I think it's pretty much a unique feature of APE, because APE binaries modify their own code after the first run to nativize themselves. (Right? Or do the new versions work different?)

I can't tell if my disdain for this is real (Since I really like having my exes read-only and having a consistent hash) or just sublimated envy (Since most desktops will in practice have every file marked as read-write, and if it works it's not stupid)
I must confess that I still see makerspaces as much more commercial and vacuumed hackerspaces, so I cannot be very sad they are not that profitable (as I think it exists only to profit off of the idea of a hackerspace without any of the culture). Am I missing some crucial context that makes them good to have around?

Here I'm focused on the skills of making an easy to read/nice too look at paper, and not the much more broad skill of critical thinking in any situation. (though that is the real goal of school, I have no idea how to teach it - see the other reply) As such what we need to teach is when to change font size, when bold/italic is good, when column layouts are good, how to format table of contents, and many other things that you would do. Any word processor can do all of the above. Then a similar list of things for the other tools in an office suite.

That is how to think about office documents. Once you know what you want to do any tool can do that.
Reduce scope.

There’s no way around it: If you think something requires years of dedicated work and must be a full-time job, you have to wrap a business model around it so you can make that work.

Alternatively, reduce scope to something you can work on in your free time.

There is no secret formula for conjuring up years of free time to work on something.
This is a really good observation about how cancel culture works. Anything you say now that's considered perfectly harmless might soon be redefined as "code" for something unacceptable, and your words will be judged by that new ex post facto standard.

I can highly recommend the app “voice dream reader”. It’s the first thing I install on a new iPhone. It’s also what I use to read every interesting article that I find on HN. I even scan books simply to be able to read it in the app. Being able to switch between listening and visual reading is amazing. You can also take highlights and export them. Also, no subscription, and works offline with all data stored on your device.
I think they were referring to the typo “into” vs “onto” which changes the meaning of the sentence dramatically
> Meta will only disappear when someone else creates an even more engaging and therefore malignant platform.

I don't think this is necessarily true. Maybe this will end a different way.

For n=me, I've used facebook when I was younger but stopped using it (and all other social networks for their stated purpose - sharing and connecting) when the algos replaced the chronological order and tried to shove odorless excrement in my eyes non-stop. I'm not looking for a new one.

What I do now? I have a couple of private Signal groups where I and my friends shoot the shit. That's where I get most social value out of the Internet. I use Twitter for news. I use Reddit a bit for trash-browsing. That's it.

Now, this might be a function of me getting older and grumpier and preferring meeting people I already know, sure. I wouldn't however assume that this all will end in a more and more terrible "social" networks. Then again, I might be totally off base because I see that TikTok is eating facebook's lunch and it's not any better for humanity I think.

I’m being a bit snarky instead of being helpful, but your post brings this XKCD to mind: https://xkcd.com/2170/
Ethics. In a similar way to how I assume many (including me) would react to being an ex-senior at Terraform Labs.

Having had an internship or a year or so in the past is one thing, well all come from somewhere, a recent multi-year tenure from a senior position is something else.
The government and government-adjacent institutions classify and quantify these things are competing with each other for relevance, reach, budget, etc. so there's a huge incentive to scream "tonight at 11: DOOOOOOM". The media (weather included) is competing for eyeball*hours so of course they do stuff like this too.

A lot of people are gonna look real stupid in 10-20yr when it becomes clear in hindsight that the solution to societal alarm fatigue was not to just increase the volume. (And I'm gonna head off the inevitable snarky comments by reminding everyone that alarm fatigue caused by alarms rightfully going off is still alarm fatigue.)

People have no problem remembering the Hurricane of '38. This naming stuff is all theater. Playing PR games so you can have .05% more "resonates with the public" or whatever dumb KPI you're chasing this quarter isn't gonna slow or mitigate global warming. But it will help you be seen "doing something" which appears to matter a lot to a lot of people.
> Further, the guys just went and banned/blocked anyone making any complaint on Reddit or Twitter.

It wasn't "the guys". It was the CEO. He believes the best use of his time is monitoring Reddit threads and banning people. He posted an official policy that any negative comment or any mention of a competing app is a permanent ban - even if you're a paying customer.

I gave Roam a comprehensive evaluation last year before deciding to go with Obsidian, and paying for Obsidian Sync. I posted a short comment in one of the threads listing the reasons I didn't go with Roam. He could have learned from my comment. He could have ignored it. He banned me. A few days later, he banned Ramses Oudt, the leading community advocate for Roam, for making a negative comment.

That's a little more drama than I'd like for a notetaking app I'm paying to use.
Nikon is pretty good at supporting legacy products, including repairs. Up to the point they almost are embarassed that spare parts are not available anymore. And hey, since their cameras routinely exceed predicted shutter life by a factor of two that is a good thing!
Just to clarify, APE is both an EXE and a COM file. The COM file format is basically just flat executable code. The only thing you need to do, to be a legal .com file, is if the program is loaded and execution starts from the first byte -- it works. APE meets that requirement for Linux and bare metal. It uses a polyglot to tell if the processor is running in real mode or long mode within its DOS stub. https://github.com/jart/cosmopolitan/blob/066ed2b2b229dce4d1... APE is also a legal EXE file because it has the MZ header. However... I thought it'd be more cool to signal as a DOS binary than to signal as a Windows binary, since signalling as the latter would probably be a turnoff for the Mac/Linux/BSD crowds, who are also supported by APE.
Legal liability is paper thin excuse. Very few companies have been sued for sending an email after saying "we didnt hire you coz you look like you might get pregnant" and playing that off as a "risk" doesnt really add up. You protect against liability by telling hiring managers not to break the law before, during OR after the interview - coz the company is exposed in all three. Even so many companies are deficient in this regard.

Simple laziness and wanting minimize reputational risk from feedback on the feedback seems a more plausible as a reason why.
"FANGS hire plenty of senior talent" Following this logic the median/mean age would not be 29. But we know it is - since that number is from lawsuits which did their due diligence with court ordered discovery. The other way to follow this logic is that age and experience is not correlated. EG. A 23 year old developer could be senior. Maybe this is the case?
Totally on board with the goals, and I've done some similar work, though haven't gotten anything nearly as trim as this as the output.

I'm interested in if/how this has stood up in externally-audited scenarios, like SOC2/ISO27001 or similar. I get that it's successfully avoided some customer scenarios, but am thinking of more formal processes.

At a glance, it covers many of the bases at a high level, but wonder if it's missing the specifics that an external auditor might typically expect to see from a policy manual. Are there additional sub-documents/playbooks/etc for many of these that elaborate further?

I disagree that the second sentence follows from the first. Interviewing is a game of incomplete information, and you won’t find consensus among programmers for how they would rather be interviewed.

It’s entirely possible that the candidate was just off their game that day, or they weren’t “warmed up”. I get noticeably better at interviewing after the first few. It happens, but the interviewer has the information they got, and it’s not possible to totally control for that kind of variance.

What hiring managers should be actively minimizing, that most hiring managers I’ve seen do not, is variance that their interview process introduces by, for example, not standardizing and training their interviewers.
I wouldn't call it a fundamental difference. If I was to concatenate the 3 XMPP RFCs and the suggested XEPs from the compliance suite linked, I would end up with a monolithic spec.

Every now and then, when a new compliance suite is published, I'd need to update the one concatenated document aka. monolithic spec. A new compliance suite in XMPP "activating" a XEP is like "merging" an MSC. For as long as a XEP is not part of the compliance suite, it's not part of the monolithic spec (it's still just an MSC) and you don't have to mess with it.

The only real difference is that the current version of XMPP spec is a document with links to other documents whereas the current version of Matrix spec is a document with links inside the document itself.
We already use names for tropical storms and hurricanes. It’s easier to talk about “Zoe” than to talk about “the third heatwave” or “the 23rd of October heatwave”. I am fine with it.
Email is not a disaster in user communities with established conventions, such as B2B (and intra-B) communication and open-source/unix-oriented mailing lists. People in those communities see how systems like Slack and Discord and Signal are completely unsuitable to replace the email mode of communication, and therefore there is a pushback against those who push for such a replacement.
> dominating the cultural communications of billions of people

I think it is much worse than dominating. Let me try: as a FB user, your "communication" with your network is not only mediated by FB, but actively manipulated to such a degree that you're no longer communicating directly with individuals in your network. When we give up the ability or the pattern of communicating directly with each other, bad shit happens.
Agree completely. If you want Section 230 protection, present posts chronologically or based on some user-chosen criteria. If you want to "curate" people's feeds based on some opaque algorithm you should not be able to hide behind Section 230 when people complain about the results.

Yes, I switched to TiddlyWiki a year ago, and haven't regretted it. I tried Evernote, Notion, Org-mode, Dynalist, Zettlr -- and looked at Dendron, Roam, Obsidian and so on.

I think what separates TiddlyWiki and Org-mode from the rest is that they are easily "hackable" and have more powerful syntax, but are also more demanding on the user.

You can modify the UI and add features inside TiddlyWiki itself, using only TiddlyWiki syntax and Javascript. Like if you want backlinks to be displayed at the bottom of every note in a certain way, you can do that.

Markdown is a very limited language when you think about it. (Most of these tools would be better off using AsciiDoc.) TiddlyWiki's WikiText has macros and widgets that let you do things Markdown never will, and your "notes" can become interactive and dynamic.

See e.g. <https://groktiddlywiki.com/static/Macros.html> and <https://groktiddlywiki.com/static/Widgets.html>.

TiddlyWiki allows you to create a very sophisticated, tailored system for managing lots of different things. But when you begin, it's a pretty steep learning curve, and you'll need to put in more work than when starting with Obsidian, of course.

I wish I had worried less about wasting time and thought more about being fully present.

If you fear wasting time, you'll be reluctant to invest time in things that lack either an immediate reward or someone else's plan. This makes it harder to put your mind to things other than gradable schoolwork or up-voteable forum comments.

If you strive to be fully present, it will be easier to notice "Oh, I'm on wikipedia. I'd rather go to the park and either play soccer, read SICP, or sketch out an idea I have for a project.

Right - walking into a 1:1 and dumping this on the table is a recipe for disaster. You don't need to treat your manager as your friend, but treating them with respect is a prerequisite for this going well. Here's two possible conversations:

a) "I'm unhappy here with my compensation and I think I deserve a promotion. I went and interviewed with <insert company name here> and they've offered me $X, as a <TITLE> and I'm going to take it."

b) "The last few times we spoke I told you that I thought I was deserving of a promotion. Since last month's meeting, I was contacted by a recruiter from <insert company name here>, and they've made me an offer for $X as a <TITLE>. I think I can keep providing value here as <TITLE> and I'd like you to help me make that happen".

As a manager, I would probably tell a) to take it, and try to promote b)

I can't say I've never changed my background to something that I find aesthetically pleasing, but it's rare.

I will however concede that I always make it a point to configure my terminal to display green text on a black background.

From my perspective as a scientist, a lot of the discussions here about "how to fix science" and "what's wrong with science" suffer from the same problem as science journalism; namely, people who are not experts in a subject trying to act as experts for others who are even less informed. For instance, the author of this TFA is a blogger and a journalist on "various topics". Don't you imagine he suffers the same problem as science journalists, which you call out as hurting science's credibility?
