I think (I'm pretty far away from all of this so this is just my impression) the point of these people, often poorly made and sometimes exaggerated, is that petty crimes (especially in a world where everyone is insured anyways so the actual damage is minimal) are not worth ruining human lives over. The American justice system is atrocious, with for profit prisons and extremely high recidivism rates, not to mention racial bias at many levels. Is it worth it to throw away a human life in that black whole over a bottle of wine?

In abstract both arguments (strict enforcement of all laws; and that the system's results are inhumane so lesser laws should be ignored) make surface level sense. A middle ground sounds best (some laws are loosened, leniency is used on first offenses, prison system reform to rehabilitate instead of punish, etc.).
>It literally is as easy as fill out the form, user is automatically banned, no verification required. Microsoft is not actually enforcing anything.

This hasn't been my experience. I've had friends reporting each other for fun across a ton of servers I'm in and haven't seen anyone banned on any of them, presumably because nobody has used any of the profanity that a report would actually ban for.
Got. 5.501. And it went over like that.
Maybe once they got your card details, they also signed you up to support that person on Patreon to throw you off the scent?
Very genuinely, if your 11 years old need to redirect swearing to things and is unable to cut it in social situations, then he needs quite a lot of help with impulse control.

Because most of them, overwhelming majority actually, are easily able to not swear. They do swear when among peers only, but cutting it off when needed is really not an issue for them.

In my country Heinz is sold as "tomato sauce", not ketchup, because it does not have enough tomato to meet the definition of ketchup.
Choosing react, because others choose react is simply another word for "quasi standard" or "industry standard".

For me, who hires Devs and works with react daily, having an industry standard is wonderful. I still remember the stressful and heated days of the past. Where every 6 month a new framework came out.

Today, I can hire a junior developer and within 24h they contribute to the code. No need to train them for many months. This makes both lifes much nicer. I don't have to spend a lot of time training. And they feel like they are contributer early on.

Hello, I am currently working as Data/Cloud Engineer, 2 years of experience in Azure and Google Cloud, I am looking for a Cloud Engineering, System Admin, backend Engineer, Devops.

I am a quick learner, a nice person to collaborate with and love to share my knowledge, please don’t hesitate to reach out !
Thankfully Mutti exists.
That slow flip on animation drives me nuts! It should be skeuomorphic all the way and flip on instantly.
I would suggest that many more people are saddened by the Queen’s death than consider it a meaningless inconvenience, as you appear to. Perhaps you could be sensitive to the feelings of your fellow citizens, even if they do disrupt your day somewhat.
The absolute worst people in the gaming scene (griefers) complaining about this must mean it's a good thing. Why do you enjoy ruining people's servers?
They are not running the online service. These are community servers.

It is interesting that I have strictly no empathy for the people defending "privacy" in crypto. I have it fully for the ability to pay in cash for our every day stuff.

Privacy in crypto is basically reallowing tax havens in the "digital" world where we spent years to try to curtain them in the "real" world.

A good friend of us happens to be working at a high level at the EU commission. Discussing about Bitcoin/Crypto, his answer was simple: "We will ban all crypto as soon as we consider it to create problems with taxes".

Coinbase would win the case, it would be one more step in the direction of a ban in the EU.
As a child I was taught to count out 1 one thousand, 2 one thousand, 3 one thousand... I used a clock to set my cadence the same day that I received this instruction, and I've recalibrated a couple of times since. 5.25 first try. 5.44 second try.
Society is give and take; roads and services are closed, tax money spent, and favorite TV shows cancelled for things like sports events, concerts, and state visits that one may personally oppose

I hope you manage to find some meaning in what will happen in the next few weeks. For many, this is a great loss, perhaps can there be learning in being curious and compassionate regarding other people's experience of loss and grief, and their hopes and fears for the future
Enlighten me, what does it mean that truth and knowledge are anonymous automata?
I don't know why, probably because DO is known to be cheap and originates a lot of spam. It's just super annoying because I use it as a cheap fairly reliable wireguard VPN since my ISP's seem to reset/kill my ssh connections otherwise.
I thought this was deliberate as a heartbeat control
It works in many subtle ways.

But let’s take one example: the monarchy and the ludicrous rules and conventions that go with it to govern parliament are just one way working class MPs are intimidated and given the information that they are not really welcome in the corridors of power.

Let’s remember also that the British people have not sacked Boris. Conservative mps worried for their personal survival sacked him and 300,000 old white people from the south east of England have, for the third time in recent years, made Truss our PM. She has no regard for the manifesto that her party was elected on. Everything is by convention in the UK, which means people with privilege can do whatever they like.
Does this passwordless future still involve getting a cookie in your browser that can be stolen and used from an attackers machine? If so, we still have a problem to fix.
I pulled up a metronome web app in another tab and set it around 23 bpm. And it still took me about an hour to hit 5.5.
So brave! Seriously, that is basically the brand he built his career on. If you really wanted to be mean, you would say “Bukowski is really a very nice guy, nothing at all like the low-life he writes about”.
If a ban in EU would make people in bars stop trying to convince me to buy in their favourite cryptocurrency, I'm all for it!
This is what you'd do in a classic OOP approach. Allows for different behavior across variants by pulling out the shared interface. (I think this is what the author mentions when they speak of "different level of abstraction"?)

The downside of this approach is that for subtrees of shared behavior you can go the multi-level inheritance route (risky if you're not sure the leaves will hold their parent's contract) accept the extra boilerplate for similar behavior.

It's interesting to me how this happens quite often and polymorphism is still our go-to solution.
I went as far as asking a friend who was in the initiation stage to recommend me. My great uncle was a mason. Ultimately I decided any group that would have me I wouldn’t want to join.

There must be some lone and hungry men left solitary in the world, like Diogenes, to irrationally and unpopulary make war on the consensus of kings and groups reasonable men.
The Queen oversaw the largely peaceful end of British imperialism, not its rise or growth.
I have a group of 30+ friends who play minecraft, use a separate TeamSpeak server and they also regularly talk about getting banned without obvious reason.

And I was once banned from Dota2 for "intentional feeding" which I guess is just a fancy way of saying that the others in my team expected my skill level to be higher than it was.

These online ban systems really are random. And typically the "moderation" is fully automated. I predict soon GPT3 will write the message to inform you.
Hence the phrase "detained at Her Majesty's pleasure".
I don't think anyone has vertical power delivery yet.
Doxxing and raids on individuals, targeted sexual harassments, there are all kinds of online actions we keep away from adult oriented internet services too.

ProCD said it was way back in ‘96. It’s still good law isn’t it?

As to unconscionability, the subject matter is relevant. In other words, there aren’t any video game cases in the unconscionability section of the typical contracts textbook.
Mixing HTML and JS is also novel to me. I’ve always been taught to separate concerns, only to find myself browsing files all the time. Mixing JSX and JS the sane way makes me feel 20 years younger.

It’s kind of like webcomponents (separate concerns by component, not by language), I wish webcomponents had been part of one of the initial steps of HTML.
I had more success with counting to 11 (in half seconds) 5.502 was my best there

I think worst is an injury inducing stretch, but I'm not a fan of them personally.

This seems to be a problem with modern docs but I find they're overly verbose and the focus is hello world tutorials to show off shiny things & advertise Azure, the quality tends to drop off from there.

I think good documentation is something I want to have open on the side to answer questions like:

* What module did I need again?

* How do I do X?

* Does this tool let me do X?

I'm going to go straight to tailwind, MDN, GitHub etc. MS documentation I'm going to google first because I ain't got time to read through a half dozen long form articles that might give me an answer. ASP.net? probably, Azure anything? I'll leave more confused and thinking about AWS...

All totally reasonable things to say.

> The hatred though is coming from unresolved hurt

Yeah, that's the explanation, but we shouldn't confuse that with justification.

What puts me off about the reaction I'm seeing is more abstract than the details of this particular case. It's the same feeling I have when I see casual anti-White racism, justified as legitimate only because of the existence and history of white supremacy. It's filial guilt and collective guilt put on one individual who didn't perpetrate the crimes that are the actual source of the anger. And it's the cultural normalization and even promotion of such perverse group-based moral systems that I am speaking out against.
I don't get why this is news now. The H100 diagrams have been online for weeks/months. I remember being confused by them when I researched A100 options in July.

Dota 2 uses a very similar system (in parallel with several other ways to communicate). It works really well: "chat wheel" communication is significantly more efficient than typing, or even talking, and always on-topic. There are a lot of games where I'll immediately ignore/mute all players' text- and voice-capabilities and solely leave canned chat wheel pings for communication.
Plus while it still can't do wonders in productivity, using something like C++20 alongside VC++ or Clion, is quite approachable.

Specially with SYCL or CUDA with standard C++ latest efforts.
> in ES-like pseudocode

In valid ES, you have many options even if none is perfect.

With the "horrible" ternary operator:

const TodosList = ({ todos }) => (
<div class="todo-list">
{
(todos.length > 0)
? todos.map(t => <Todo key={t.id} todo={t} />)
: <p>No todos yet</p>
}
</div>
);

Without the ternary operator:

const TodosList = ({ todos }) => {
let todoContent;
if (todos.length > 0) {
todoContent = todos.map(t => <Todo key={t.id} todo={t} />);
} else {
todoContent = <p>No todos yet</p>;
}
return (
<div class="todo-list">
{ todoContent }
</div>
);
};

If you allow the repeat of the div:

const TodosList = ({ todos }) => {
if (todos.length > 0) {
return (
<div class="todo-list">
{ todos.map(t => <Todo key={t.id} todo={t} />) }
</div>
);
} else {
return (
<div class="todo-list">
<p>No todos yet</p>
</div>
);
}
};

With a separate render function:

const renderTodos = (todos) => {
if (todos.length > 0) {
return todos.map(t => <Todo key={t.id} todo={t} />);
} else {
return <p>No todos yet</p>;
}
};
const TodosList = ({ todos }) => (
<div class="todo-list">
{ renderTodos(todos) }
</div>
);

USB-C headphones need to essentially host the USB controller, some microcontroller to coordinate it all, DAC (Digital to Analog Converter) and a suitable amplifier to drive the actual speakers. And that amplifier very likely needs more than the 5V coming over USB C so you need some sort of DC-DC boost converter that is dead silent and stable so it plays the transients clearly.

Getting this all right in such a constrained space is possible, but as all things analog it requires some serious engineering and not just a "we throw that one good chip on and we'll be good".

IMO you still fare better by getting decent cans and even a cheap USB soundcard like the Behringer UMC series.
It's a weird bit of asymmetry to the husband-of-queen title being decided on an adhoc basis...

The asymmetry derives from an asymmetry in the titles themselves: the title "King" outranks the title "Queen", rather than those titles being of equal rank. You can't have someone other than the monarch outranking the monarch, so the husband of the reigning Queen can't be a King.

Surely you were not discussing those things with the Great Dictator of EU, not accountable in their decisions to citizens and courts?
Demonetization on YouTube means YouTube won't show ads on your videos so you don't get money from them, and YouTube recommends them less.

Having members on YouTube doesn't impact that at all. The members will pay and discover, same as if they were on Patreon. Non-members might have a harder time discovering, but it's not like it's easy to discover content through Patreon either.
I also worked for 10 years at a small movie theater in Italy, and very much share what you described. The noises, the lights, the repetitive and almost ritual actions.

Ask HN: Why MIT-Scheme is regressing?
mit-scheme is the iconic implementation, the one used by Gerald Sussman, author of the famous SICP textbook. So it's surprising that mit-scheme is regressing, that it's only available for two platforms, that it doesn't work at all on the new Apple M1 processor, that it doesn't work on Windows (although it did before), that it doesn't work on Raspberry PI.

The editor edwin, which is part of the mit-scheme, and which allows beautiful debugging in almost the same way as in SLIME for Common Lisp is documented almost nowhere. If you want to make some new extension or modification for edwin or you want to configure it a little differently, the only way to do that is to study the source code.

I don't know about you, but this is strange to me: it is one of the best (and oldest) scheme implementations, but day by day it is more and more clear that it is slowly sinking into oblivion. Why is it like that?

> That's not the deal with proprietary software. The deal is that you buy a license to software, the terms of which can be altered at any time.

You're acting as if Microsoft developed this game. They didn't. I bet most people posting here bought it at the time the license "made lawyers very nervous" according to Notch himself (even after he said that, he only changed the license very slightly).
A two month old post on a hacking forum complaining about chat moderation in a game for kids, from a user running cracked servers. Apparently enough for HN to pick up the pitchforks because, you know, Big Tech Bad.
I saw another study on hn [1] that "showed that people found accountants and data analysts boring". However, this was all based on forms filled in by workers on MTurk and another crowd sourcing company...

There are two (bad) extreme ideas:
1. Women are inferior and should never rule
2. Women are superior and can do no wrong

True equality comes when we realize both men and women screw up just as much, and have just as much good potential IMO.
You must live in a different bubble than OP (and me). When I was in the bay area this couldn't be further from the truth.
That's some great game design. Of course in hindsight it's "doh, anyone could do this", but no one did. Simple rules, easily understandable goal, minimal interaction. Now, fast, mobile 0.99$ release and rake in those dollars.
Has anyone outside of CERN used it on a large scale successfully?
That controversy is kept only inside certain circles. I think that "mired in controversy" is too strong expression for what is going on there. And also, roblox is actually banning people right and left too.
So? All the kid servers in this hypothetical would be heavily moderated.
I think my primary point, "no one was addressing usability just statistical power" still holds, but I concede your point.

Fun fact, apples grown for market get some level of sun shading to keep them pretty. Too much sun damages their skin and can give them that sort of leathery look. Which now that I think about it is a filter itself, hardly germane anymore though.

Bingo. The great lesson that React learnt from Flex is that your Components should just be code. In Flex your fancy MXML components are 1 to 1 mappable to plain Actionscript.

Nowhere in this blog post: any discussion of money laundering, sending funds to terrorist groups, rogue states. Without mention of any of the legitimate reasons the US government is sanctioning Tornado Cash, this is merely propaganda from a financially interested party.
I want to use my iCloud keychain as a password manager since the level of trust I've already given apple allows them to acquire most of my passwords (and 2 factor codes) anyway.

Safari integrates with it, but there is no Firefox or chrome plugin to do domain based validation or to keep my clipboard sane.

Apple has either failed to allow uBlock to function in safari (after which I would consider migrating to safari), failed to write the Firefox integration plugin, or failed to create an API that would allow a third party to build a plugin. While apple can certainly choose to do/not do those things, it is not a happy customer experience.

I strongly support the right to privacy in messaging, ie encrypted communication.

However, I am much more hesitant with privacy in money transfers. It is not obvious to me at all that we should have unlimited unregulated money transfers. In fact, I fear that unreflected support for the latter might erode the (already tenuous) support for the former:

Currently, we might still be in a position to regulate and disrupt cryptocurrencies (for example, Bitcoin needs on- and off-ramps tied to tradFi, and Bitcoin traffic is unencrypted and can be detected (and censored), AFAIK). If that whole ecosystem were to succeed in ensuring encryption and anonymity in money transfers, we might get to a point where there is overwhelming political pressure to prohibit any encrypted communication, even more so than already.

TL;DR: Cryptocurrencies might jeopardise Signal et al. Yet another reason to oppose Crypto: to protect encryption.

> wow, didn't realize so much of EU can afford electric vehicles. They are more expensive over here in the U.S. - especially compared to a decent used car.

I don't live in the EU, though. You need to move a bit further north and west.

And it's not that electric cars are cheaper here than in the US, rather other cars are taxed at +100% or so (more for "luxery" cars), while electric cars have had low to zero taxes.

Also, fuel has an extra tax of about $1/liter ($3.8/gallon) on top of the normal price (and 25% VAT even on that), meaning even before the current boom, fuel was typically priced around $1.5-$/l (around $5-$7/gallon), and has been approaching $2.5-$3/l (up to about $10/gallon) recently.

Another difference compared to the US is that we have about 25% fewer cars per capita here, despite having about 20% higher nominal GDP per capita than the US (purchasing power of households are lower than in the US, due to taxes and tariffs ). Partly because of car-hostile taxes (except for electric cars) and partly because other means of transportation are subsidized. More of the money is put into buses, trains and sidewalks and less into cars, roads and parking lots.
You should not let you children play with random 30 year olds, if you do not want them to see/hear profanity.

You have the option to install your own chat moderation tools, client-sided, there is not need to force every to "be nice" just because there _might_ be children playing.

If this was just for their own Realm Servers, that would be fine, it is their server, they host it. But why does Microsoft suddenly feel the need to moderate MY server? (public, but only used by friends of mine)

All the big public servers, such as Hypixel, have had their own moderators and they do a fantastic job.

> I don't see anything in their process that suggest that a group of adults playing with their friends are at risk of having their chat audited in the absence of a complaint?
The thing is that we have NO IDEA how much it takes to be banned.
- Will an actual human look at the reports? Doubtful.
- When a ban is to be issued, who will decide when to do that? Some guy who has to follow a script that reads "3 profanities, max" and click the boot button?

The Minecraft community is one of the largest gaming communities, and I have seen very little controversial about it. I do not see the need for Microsoft to suddenly step in and decide to moderate it.
