I think it might just be that that’s not needed anymore.

The social networks of the past were useful as a way to keep in touch with people. MySpace, early Facebook, and the countless others from back then. Now everyone’s online 24/7, and accessible on multiple services all at the same time, all the time. You don’t need social networks to keep in touch with anyone anymore, their original raison d'être is gone.

What’s sought after now is meeting -other-, new, like-minded people and content. For that we have twitter, Reddit, TikTok, and whatnot. People want their bubbles. We’re all here on HN for that exact purpose.
I don't think intelligence requires humor. It could be just a quirk of our brains.
Does this work in systemd-less distros like the most common WSL2 ones? I tried to fake Podman to use in a devcontainer but it complained of a missing `/var/run/docker.sock`.
I'm sorry, I'm not trying to sidestep the argument but I'm also clearly not understanding what you're saying. I read your statement as "Women say they want emotionally available [etc etc] men and yet I see women paying attention to men who are [high status/beefy as hell/richer than god/etc etc] - there is a disconnect here" - is that approximately right?

I'll address that argument, but if it's not what you're trying to say then please correct me. There are many different women, and they all want slightly different things, at different priorities. That said, I think that focusing on mental health, communication skills, and emotional availability pays dividends for everybody independent of whether or not it gets them a relationship.

We are not. But maybe we are closer to replicating some of our internal brain workings.
Real talk, if I found a job that would allow me to work remote from another country ( where I'm authorized to work), I would be open to working for as little as 60K a year.

You are equating two very different groups here. The guidelines around assisted suicide are extremely strict, this is not futurama "suicide booth".

Being overly holistic about life is disrespecting the right of these people to dignity. We are talking about people with a progressing disease that cannot be cured and that would be forced to spend several months in extreme suffering just because "suicide is bad".
>For one, the vast majority of those people are W2 employees.

... how long do you think it would take for everyone of those W2 employees to be filing for the Foreign Tax Credit every year if it were illegal to audit them?
> Assume I receive 100,000 trades per second from some crypo exchange and if one trade triggers 100 signals than I have 10.000.000 signals per second that is something comparable with the maximum.

I dunno how someone is skilled enough to do this benchmark but still thinks that this is how you are supposed to use signals and slots...
A lot big game dev firms and even some mid-level indies will saddle you with work where most of the creative decisions have been made already and you are tasked with making it happen.
On the other hand i’ve been vegan for over 10 years, i can squat 300lbs and I’m 190lbs at 10% bf at almost 50 years old. All this without supporting the most cruel and polluting industry. Who is right?
For me, it has to be really hard, not like some leftover work you didn’t do that day. The more open ended the better. For example, how to make a transistor out of readily available household components. How would you do lithography, doping, etc.
Or that is a flat-out mistake. You're right that wealthier people probably aren't going to commit obvious fraud like "forgetting" a 1099. But, assuming they are not deliberately committing fraud, their CPA will probably not make any obvious errors either.
> It's a remarkably easy problem to solve. Just tax 1-3% of the net value of your assets based on their value on December 31 of each year.

Easily avoided by liquidating assets on Dec 30 and rebuying on Jan 1 (or Jan 30 to avoid wash sale if needed)

It would also have a nasty side effect, there would be many sellers and few buyers on Dec 30, so the market would crash every single year at EoY.

I hate to say "survivorship bias" in such a context, but I do think it applies. Those who are committed to the success of their attempt are likely more sure of their decision.
Throwing yourself off a bridge is not the same thing as going through the whole medical process behind assisted suicide.
I recommend that you read the article. Sony is trying to block the activision merger on grounds that Microsoft could block Sony from having access to Call of Duty on their platform. Microsoft is countering by submitting evidence that Sony actively employs the very same strategy of blocking games from being played on rival systems that they're claiming is anticompetitive, demonstrating the hypocrisy of their claim.
Just to be clear: Elizabeth is (to us) Queen of Canada, and other (lesser) possessions where she also holds titles :)

Since the patriation of our constitution in 1982, the PM’s office has been the central power officially, deriving the office’s power from our Charter of Rights and Freedoms. The Queen and her apparatus are figureheads without real power.
> I get work is first and foremost an exchange of labour for money, and not supposed to be fun.

I have always picked jobs doing something I've enjoyed. I've had times where I got a bit sick of it, but most of my 20+ years of work have been getting paid to tinker with things I enjoy tinkering with.

Work doesn't have to suck. Keep looking. Find a job that interests you and find the fun in it. Keep your eyes open and switch when something better comes along.

Never switch jobs solely for more money. As long as you can pay the bills, work conditions and happiness are more important.
> How do I effortlessly restore objects including their methods from JSON?

The recommendation from the title is usually made instead of something like "deserializing executable data is harmful". That is exactly the one question where the answer is "don't".

It's not exactly the unpickling process that is the problem. It's how you established that the data isn't malicious. It is very hard to use pickle without creating some local privilege escalation possibilities. And at the end of the process, you usually don't get any capability that replicating the code on both sides of the communication channel wouldn't give you.

(The problem isn't specific to Python either. There was a time when that kind of functionality was very hyped on both the industry and academia. For example, Java also got something similar that they had to retract. The famous Gnu-Hurd OS (the one that would never finish) was supposed to do that on the system level.)
Stop spreading things that “someone told you” please.
So what you're saying is ...? :)

I have often wondered if we can turn gamification on its head, so we can optimize for engaging discussion instead of outrage? There's a lot less money in that, so it'll get way less attention, but I wonder if it's doable?

Of course you're still playing in a game theoretic landscape, so it'll be taken advantage of for sure, but it might still be better than this local minima we're in.

Something as simple as a like button leads to this cascade of odd behaviour. HN seems to do ok with its voting scheme. I'd love to see some folks dive deep in this area.
Not sure how you could suggest she was bluffing when she actually went through with it...
Y’all should read “Amusing ourselves to death” by Neil Postman if you’re interested in how mediums have changed over the years.

As Huxley hinted, our soma is just technological narcotics. With each new medium of technology brings in a plethora of problems that cannot be reformed.

> you will never find the keys under the streetlight

That is a strong statement! It is not true, some times that is where they are.

Actually if it is the only place you could find them (the rest of the street is too dark, you do not have a torch to see or fingers to feel....) it is an optimal, albeit dismal, strategy

Assuming you're a developer, by 33 you should have programmed email filters to handle this. The whole point of email is to have it automatically prioritized and sorted before you even start reading it. If your inbox is 100% automated messages, something has gone seriously wrong.

I wonder if Gmail is part of the problem. All the spam I receive at a Fastmail-hosted account is coming from hacked Gmail accounts. Google is doing nothing to stop it, even though a very simple filter at my end can automatically flag it. Gmail's outgoing mail servers are getting reported into blocklist reputation oblivion in recent weeks - could be worth switching to a paid provider.
Human dream sequences often have problems with faces, text and mirrors. You can train yourself to try to focus on these features when dreaming.

Most people in our dreams don't even have faces that we would recognize. When they do have faces, sometimes it is not even the right face.
>What a piece of work. She was using threatening of death as a blackmail. I don't feel bad that someone who blackmailed others in this way had their card called.

Wait, are you saying your glad someone with a mental illness who wasn't getting the help they needed (to the point they felt that they needed to end their life) is somehow a good and just thing..... it wasn't like she threatened a spouse or individual, the government of an industrialized western nation wasn't providing proper care.....
I've been interested in trying out standup in Meta Horizon Worlds - there's a bunch of comedy clubs you can visit. So far it hasn't really panned out as nobody is really seriously trying when I happen to visit. People go on stage and don't really do standup, and nobody pays attention.
You can use the 8b/10b decoding directly on your Tek MSO scope to do most of the preprocessing here. You can even trigger on errors. It would be easier than analyzing the analog stream directly.

> Maybe we should eliminate the Desktop folder completely

Seconded. I'm irrationally annoyed that it gets created and sometimes filled with .desktop files while my DE doesn't even use it.

> At the very least, we should get rid of the "Templates" folder. I still have no idea wtf that's meant to be used for.

You can place files in the "Templates" dir to serve as templates for the "right-click > new document" feature in nautilus and some other file explorers.
HN typically goes by original title with some exceptions. It's ok to have to click through to figure out what the title is about (or by whomst), it's less ok to puff up a title by adding things to it which is usually why people slap on the author.

Yes, they do violate antitrust. But there are two problems with enforcement:

1. The arrangement in question relates to trade of copyrighted works; which means that any antitrust lawsuit has to jump over the hurdle of not restraining the copyright monopoly. Separability of copyright and exclusive licensing are also considered to be well-established components of the copyright monopoly.

2. The consumer welfare standard is so high a bar to antitrust enforcement that a lot of clearly illegal behavior is never prosecuted.

That last one deserves more explanation. In the 1980s a bunch of federal judges decided to repeal US antitrust law from the bench. They argued - with scant evidence - that antitrust action had to prove that consumers were harmed by monopolistic action. This is the exact same argument Apple and console vendors use to justify locking down their products; that it actually benefits consumers to have to buy their software from sources authorized by the hardware manufacturer.

In practice, there is no monopoly that does not improve consumer welfare. Monopolies are the most stable business arrangement and can bully the rest of the economy into doing what the customer wants. The whole point of antitrust is that we don't want to live under privately-owned government, not that avocados could be 2 cents cheaper.
Protein and fat causing those issues is baloney.

Metabolic heart disease is caused by small LDL particle size creating plaques , and a low carb diet fixes that. I'm not going to blame carbs on that one, but cutting them out does either directly or indirectly help.

Nitrites and nitrates used for cured meats are the carcinogenic you have to worry about, not meat. It is a good thing to point out, not an argument against general meat consumption.

No idea about stroke factors, won't comment on that.

The mere suggestion that something with the glycemic index of meat causes diabetes is laughable.
The PDF link doesn't seem to work (maybe I need an account? It doesn't say), so I can only read the abstract, but um...

"...when both sexual harassment policies are more ambiguous exposing men to a larger variety of claims and the number of public sexual harassment incidents is high."

So, they're grouping together "#MeToo complaints against men" with "actually visible sexual harassment", and then focusing on the complaints against men instead of the incidence of sexual harassment?

I would wager the correlation isn't "men don't want to be accused by the #MeToo movement, so they're not collaborating with women" as much as "women are afraid of collaborating with men at locations where men are known to sexually harass women".

In other words, I don't think it's a "consequence of #MeToo" as much as it's a "consequence of sexual predators" :|

IIRC before that Unix had directories, but it wasn't a rooted DAG. I don't recall the specifics, but I suspect you had to know a directory's inode to get to it if you couldn't reach it from where you were.

If there were only those two people involved that's possible. But in a situation with onlookers the bull-headed 'winner' will gain a reputation for being aggressive and unlikeable, while the the 'loser' will seem reasonable and professional. If our 'winner' persists with this behaviour they'll end up ostracised at best and more likely ousted from their position because no matter how correct they are, that sort of behaviour is always a net negative overall.
I recall that most war movies I seen tend to have women in the resistance movements, especially the french one. The only place where there are only men is those that were drafted since the military draft only forced men to go to war.

For shots focusing on the factories, again women tend to be featured. With most young men was drafted into the military front, and much of the civil industry being diverted to produce war material, women was critical to fill in the need for workers. Top Secret Rosies seem to be illustrating that fact.

One major demographic that old war movies tend to not show is children. When half the work group is drafted, and the other half is diverted to do both the civil and the war production (and everything else in private life), children were not just playing in the fairground or studying in school. It is however not very nice to illustrate child labor, so old and new war films tend to avoid that.
Usability is a little better on the PoS chain. Blocks come out every 12 seconds, instead of randomly with just an average time of 13 seconds.

The PoS chain takes less than a minute to converge to a state where it's very unlikely for your transaction to revert, and in 12 minutes your transaction is finalized, meaning it can't revert without destroying a large percentage of staked ETH.

PoS ETH will have the researcher and dev community building on top of it for another decade or so. There's a long list of further improvements in the roadmap, including major increases in scalability.

Most of the ecosystem is moving to PoS. The popular rollups will be connected to the PoS chain, not to PoW. Major stablecoins backed by off-chain assets have already said they'll be backing the PoS chain, not PoW. Etc.
Nvidia would be all for it if it involved ETH.
You’re just wrong on this. The calories-in-calories-out thing doesn’t work since the nutrient profiles of different kinds of calories effect the body’s calorie-burn-rate.

But you wouldn’t be the first one to tell me I’m wrong without actually trying the diet and seeing for yourself whether you gain or lose weight on it.

Also, consider the fact that some calories will result in hormonal signals in your body that increase your hunger, whereas other calories will result in hormonal signals that decrease your hunger.

Your body needs nutrients, not just calories — that’s why we can’t just drink gasoline and call it a day.

Actually, that’s a good question for you — why is it that people can’t just drink gasoline, since it contains calories?

Do you think a person would gain weight if they only drank gasoline and didn’t exercise enough? Do you think a person would feel hungry again just a couple hours after drinking some gasoline?
Thanks.

This does not resonate with me. I think this is more indicative of your internal psychology than any psychology of humor.

It sounds to me like you think in terms of prey and predator as a default metaphor: which informs me of how I should handle you as an agent - carefully.

If you reduce everything to animalistic tendencies - you start reacting that way: then people start treating you that way based on your actions... self fulfilling prophecy.

You might want to update you mental model of comedy - or provide a significantly more cogent argument for your view, as it was far from convincing - and frankly worrisome.

All in all it sounds like you are telling us how you respond to people you perceive as prey... which is... concerning that you view ANY human as prey...
Solar PV takes up a lot of land.
Rich, densely populated countries (like the Netherlands) find the areas outside of the cities to be more valuable as (recreational) nature, for upcoming housing projects, or for agricultural use.

Another (short term) practical reason is that remote areas where the land is cheap usually have a weaker connection to the electrical grid. As erecting vast solar parks takes months while fortifying the grid takes years (and is very expensive), this creates bottlenecks.
Erecting new solar parks in such remote areas is therefore (temporarily) prohibited:

Most media outlets have policies on not publicizing suicides, so there are countless suicides that were committed for economic reasons that we'll never know about.

I knew of someone through someone else that ended up committing suicide in a public place. Couldn't afford to live in a dignified way, and left countless notes explaining why they did what they did. All of them were scrubbed from the internet, and if you didn't know of them you would have never known it happened at all.

This happens more often than most people know.

I wonder if we're going through a transformation period where we don't yet have a grasp on the cultural habits and institutions that make our hybrid online-offline worlds fulfill our human needs--like meaning, significance, belonging, achievement, etc.

I suspect there are some things we took for granted in a "fully offline" world that we haven't figured out yet. Things like how "being seen" while working helped establish self-confidence; or, "overhearing" a conversation in the office helped make work a social-first experience.

I'm trying to understand what some of these might be, because I want to help cultivate the solution at relm.us. My personal work is to better understand psychological human needs and translate the fulfillment of them into an enabling social (spatial) platform.

Maybe it's the answer, and maybe it isn't. But as you've outlined, the cost of not understanding the problem are very high.

Long-range fork is possible if network participants are manipulated or forced to switch to another fork. In practice, the correct fork is communicated from entities who control the majority stake, such as exchanges. In the case of network disruptions, there might be multiple valid forks, and choosing the correct one is arbitrary, because there isn't one. There's no objective consensus similar to proof-of-work.
