I am currently trying a big sheet of white paper, folded once in the middle and a pilot frixion pen.

This is mostly for home stuff of which there is quite a bit for a home owner. It can just lie on since table or shelf and be updated easily. I put notes and todos together and the todos get a little check box in front of them. I'm in control of the hierarchy and it mostly mirrors the layout of the house. Doesn't get in the way for me.

I also want to extend it to other areas but for now I'm trying things out with the house domain.

Of course the downside is that i cannot easily edit it when I'm out and about and have some idea. And it's not really possible to have any automated reminders or integrations.
(Not sure if there are open source alternatives to what rocketbook is offering; that might be a way to hook this into some digital setup)
How about "Do you keep any secrets?"

Another bit of incompetence that really winds me up is:

software that you can specify the install location for, so it installs a update manager at that location but then always installs the actual programs under the C drive
It depends on the language, but I would probably call it `UserProfile` and change a major version even if it's in an entirely different language. Maybe even kept in the same repo.

> PS: to get back to the original point, you're still stuck with a "UserProfileV2" service that does a lot more than just user profiles, but that's not reflected in the name.

From what it said in the original comment, it still seems like a user profile to me.
It also sounds like an untrue story. You can find photo/video editors all over the internet. As a photographer I'm spammed by the Chinese ones every week. Looking at their portfolios, they aren't even bad (though I don't know how real their portfolios are).
That's not really true. My personal threshold is if there is more than one language involved.
I read (a fairly long time ago) about a guy who joined the air force and ended up flying the same B-52 that his father had flown. One has to wonder if at this point his son isn't flying that same plane.
I'll take a Discourse forum over a Discord any day (though I haven't tried Discord's new forum feature). Discourse is an evolution of a forum, while (until now maybe) Discord is an evolution of IRC. Huge difference.
I’m surprised you can change a verified account name and retain the verification. That seems like the biggest flaw.
Comment on the functional programming and mutation of data. I learnt R before learnt python.

In R

y = c(1, 2, 3)

x = y

# now x is a copy of y

I was surprised that in python

y = [1, 2, 3]

x = y

# now x is y! What, why?

In R, I am used to the fact everything is an expression:

a = if (x > y) { 0 } else { 1 }
I see essentially no spam because I don't follow accounts that would spam me or receive a lot of spam replies. The people I follow are interesting. That's about it.
Simplenote devotee here. This looks very similar so I'm intrigued. I like that you are adding folders as well as tags.

Only thing I really lack for in Simplenote is:

- Ability to find notes that have a certain combination of tags.

- Command palette type search with cmd+o/cmd+p/cmd+k

- Ability to open multiple windows in Mac

- More keyboard shortcuts

- Images is nice, but I'm afraid they make frequent backups larger and larger and syncs slower and slower, unless they are just a reference to a CDN maybe? This was my experience with Ulysses and I had to delete my photo notes.
Everybody wants to build housing, but no bureaucrat wants to give up control to saying “yes” or “no” to projects.

We need some radical anti-bureaucracy candidates, but there’s not good overlap with the local ideological demographic.

Stalemate.
While not reflecting on the carbon footprint, I was surprised to see just how many queries from my phone were blocked by PiHole once I set it up. Every minute, even when sitting there not being used. What an eventual waste of battery, data and processing power.

I do wonder how many of those queries may be repetitions upon the first one being blocked but even still.
It's basically a nested list, but you get specific features that makes it easier and faster to navigate such a list.
Mind mapping is a facilitator for the thinking process. When you're trying to solve a problem or design a concept, you need to switch between the high-level aspects and details all the time, and your tool shouldn't get in the way.
In some cities, these departments are the legacies of the mob.
>> By this standard, a CEO would need decent expertise in every aspect of running their business, which as a business scales becomes impossible.

The solution is to have people under them to oversee the other areas that are not the CEO's expertise. Now how do you achieve that? I don't know. When one of those people moves on how do you replace them? I don't know, but promote from within would seem to be wise, since this hypothetical organization has a low tolerance for BS.
If you mouseover the countries you can see that some of them are "Pending regulatory approval".
You can also add only enough water so the pasta consumes it all, though you have to watch out for sticking and all the starch that would go into the water stays with the pasta. That could affect flavor. You could also turn off the heat early and let the pasta continue to cook on the stored heat. Don't have a subscription to FT so I can't read the article.
I saw an interesting video from Kirsten Dirksen this past week taking a look at a company trying to tackle this with the drop-in ADU approach. That was the first I had heard about the rule changes in California about unblockable building additions to try and tackle the housing issues. Presented without particular knowledge or endorsement of what the company is saying (they obviously have a vested interest in their solution to the housing crisis).

Isn't affirmative action in hiring legal? Seems like this is just the same thing but for layoffs.
Pings would be bad compared to fiber/cable from your location to somewhere close to you. Pings are potentially better than fiber/cable would be to locations far away from you, depending on the routing. Going up to LEO and then lasering around gets you faster signal propagation out of the atmosphere.
The important thing isn't how much of a project is "overhead", it's what you get for your donation. A project distributing lollypops might have 5% overhead, but I would still prefer to donate to one that distributed vaccines with 30% overhead.

In this case their program expenses are a mix of incredibly valuable things ("keep wikipedia online") and more borderline things ("redesigning the article editing UI"). When their fundraising talks about the former as if it's what the marginal dollar will be spent on, that's pretty misleading.

(I don't think this marketing is unusually misleading for a non-profit, and likely better than average; the bar for honesty in fundraising is depressingly low.)
Do the YIMBY groups support dropping environmental impact studies for new buildings?

It's not really clear how this works from their site but I think they're basically just sending your raw blend files to random users without any protection or guarantee, legal or technical, that either the blends or the renders will be deleted afterwards. That's going to go down well with my clients. "What the prototype renders were leaked by some random teenager from Birmingham? No, I've no idea how they got hold of them. Honest guv!"

Ah well time to add another clause the contract I use when subcontracting, something like "I affirm that I will not make use of Rentaflop during the fulfilment of this contract" should do it.
I am surprised you can rebrand without redoing verification.
You can't just broadly look at all companies for patterns in layoffs. It's important to divide startups from IPO'd companies.

A common pattern for all of these is the inability to generate profit, but this is business-as-usual for a startup. Even in normal times it's okay for startups to lose money.

Startups typically perform layoffs because they are running out of runway and need to extend the life of the company. Their entire reason for existing is the liquidity event that is either acquisition or IPO, and it is essential for investors that they survive long enough to see such an event.

For publicly traded companies, which we've seen a lot of layoffs in recently (which in the last 30 days includes: Twilio, Rent the Runway, Uber, Shopify, Snap, Wayfair, New Relic). The common theme for almost all of this is negative net earnings and B2C. This is what makes Twilio interesting, they're the first B2B IPO with major layoffs.

One thing that I keep hearing at my IPO'd startup is that "we won't have layoffs since we have a long runway", but runway matters way less for IPO'd companies. The key aim for IPO'd companies is to please your investors, and if you're shares keep taking a hit because interest rates go up and your net earnings remains steeply negative, then layoffs are coming.

If this continues it will start to impact profitable companies, but not before doing much more damage to the non-profitable ones. This feels like a slow motion re-enactment of the dot com burst.
All the proceeds in civil law follow the same pattern. There is no need to nitpick specifics like in common law. Therefore:

> involve the actual letter of the law not being flouted but agreeing with the commissions convoluted approach of discretionary parsing of the devices sold in a 10 year period and associated success or failure of other competitors etc etc...

Those details don't change anything like they could in common law. If the law encompasses ALL of those details and outlines what should be done. And that is what is done. If those were not covered by the RELEVANT law, the result would not be this one. Note that - there still would be a result. Because if they werent covered by that particular law, there would be another, larger-scope law that covers those.

Again, this is a matter of Angloamericans being used to their feudal legal system in which one can sly his or her way out of things by nitpicking and arguing on details. You people are so used to that mentality that you cant break that framework. Leading to arguments like yours.
I'm pretty sure if you are white and laid off, you will have a pretty strong case for a lawsuit. I can't believe someone in legal wouldn't warn the leadership that putting out a press release stating this was a good idea.
Oh, more ways to hoard user data and metadata and sell it.
what conservative code words?
Have you noticed any actual development on Wikipedia? Only thing that changes from the user perspective is that the donation request get more and more annoying every year.
It's always been "progress for me, not for thee" type of thing. "Let's solve homelessness, but keep them out of my neighbourhood!" When conservatives complain about the "coastal left" this is what they're talking about. People who are wealthy and hypocritical in the extreme.
It's worth noting that the C-130 Hercules has been in continuous service since 1956, and new aircraft were still being produced at least as recently as 2015 (and perhaps longer). That aircraft really is a flying truck!
Its not you. It’s a disaster. I often wonder how something like this even came to be.

For me the biggest issue is the most basic: the UI is a mix of random icons (some labeled and some not), text buttons and command line functions. But there is no rhyme or reason. It’s even difficult to explain how to do something.

I imagine if you have a disability where you can’t use standard inputs or use a screen reader that Discord is, in fact, completely unusable.
Show me a GUI framework that follows FP patterns not OOP.
With property prices this high I think it's inevitable. Who is going to be pro development with $1.5m on their mortgage and a property worth $1.7m?

Their equity and net worth is both fragile and contingent upon vehemently impeding the construction of new housing.
They operated a games storefront and library for a short period of time, but that died pretty quickly.
I believe you are high
> SpaceX is not a publicly traded company

I don't think it matters. TikTok isn't traded either but equity price is pumped up anyways.

Likewise Brad Pitt is not publicly traded but the excitement that people have for him prompts Tag Heur to pay him millions for a picture wearing one of their watches.

Finally everybody and their brother knows that Tesla and all the other BS vaporware companies under the same ownership are gonna merge at some point and be listed.
The worst thing is that the workflow to report spam has gotten a lot worse since the last 6 months. Now it takes 9 clicks

1. three dots

2. report spam

3. welcome message start report

4. who is this report for? myself, some specific group, everyone (??)

5. general info (attacked b/c of identity, harassed, spam, ... )

6. how is he doing this? (Posting misleading or deceptive links, leading to scams, phishing, or other malicious links, +6 more similarly verbose)

7. yes continue

8. submit

9. done

It used to be like 2 or 3 about 6 months ago but I remember after Musk started complaining they responded by somehow making it worse.

Also most of the reports are centered around harassment or racist comments when 90% of the bad content on twitter most people deal with is straight up scams. There should just be a big this is spam button.
>I assumed it's been Internet 101 for several years now.

people can be extremely naïve.

It has also been a problem with people who make content on platforms like Onlyfans. A lot of them learned a bit too late that it's a bad idea to take pictures that show the street where you live.
> The analyst in this case has no fiduciary duty to the harmed parties so they wouldn’t be insiders.

The current doctrine - as Matt Levine puts in in his recurring motif "Everything is a Securities Fraud" - is not about fiduciary duty, but about an unfair information edge and basically "cheating" other people trading without insider information.

You don't have to be an insider to be guilty of insider trading - it is sufficient to trade on insider information.

I can't recall any recent case where an outsider eon against the SEC by arguing they don't have a contractual duty to shareholders, because the alleged harm is broader than that
If a more qualified person is fired over someone else because of race, then he has not only failed the company but told other employees their talent and skills are a secondary consideration. Their pain is not lessened by the color of their skin.
The point is lots of people (including myself until about a year ago) were under the impression that Wikipedia was on the verge of bankruptcy, and would likely either stop existing or be purchased by Microsoft or Google if it wasn't for our donations, so I gave every time they asked. Learning that they are swimming in money makes us seem like we've been fooled.
> I have seen routine maintenance being used to establish obstruction charges just to intimidate possible witnesses

You're talking about Hillary Clinton, right? That's literally one of the arguments they used against her.
The person you are responding to didn't mention slavery, and knowing the etymology of a word doesn't mean that you know how the phenomenon may have historical echoes.
Imagine a candidate saying he/she was going to fire 90% of the planning office and end environment and community impact studies.

Do you think that candidate will succeed with SF’s voters?
The problem has a name, and its name is Dean Preston.
I would pay to read a more in depth explanation from you (and pay more if there was an annoted code example) - your comment gave me a better understanding than I have managed in the past. In all seriousness, where can I pre-order a copy of "Reading QR code: a programmatic approach" by lifthrasiir?
Both, they have two sets of orbital paths at roughly 90 degrees to eachother (I'm just eyeballing it, it's probably not exactly 90). With more sets if you count the satellites in polar orbits.

Though they could, if they needed to, only connect to the satellites flying at low relative speed.
This is not really practical without good opsec because of the risk of doxxing. You basically need to have strong discipline to censor out every information that could remotely be traced back to you. The doxxer need to succeed to id you only once; you need to protect yourself on all and every comment you make.

Take a look at my comment history. Can you figure out who am I? I worry constantly about this.

I was targeted once in a politically motivated witchhunt on Reddit (that also targeted other moderators of a national subreddit), and there were a doxxing pastebin that circulated in hate groups. It contained the real name, addresses, id number, etc of many moderators; a lot of them had made a conscious effort to not leak anything, but they could be traced nonetheless.

In my username it had "none information could be found". But I later checked out my comment history on reddit and found out plenty of information leaks; people were just not determined enough to comb out the comments.
What's the high availability story like? (I realise it might not be implemented yet, but presumably you have an idea of how you want to do it)
Steve Jobs: Great idea doesn't always translate into great product
Dropbox wrote about their migration from NGINX to Envoy in July 2020 and highlighted a lot of the same concerns [0]. As per this thread [1], NGINX have posted very similar blog posts for the last two years saying they are 'returning to our open source roots', but without much tangible change. And the Cloudflare CEO forecasted this move away from NGINX back in 2018 [2]

Have you tried this? Do you know how well it works?
I created https://sqwok.im because I wanted an open, indexable, public chat site tailored to kitchen-table conversations, influenced from my years growing up on IRC.

There's been an active discussion on whether to allow gifs/images in the chat, with many saying they like that it's focused just on conversation.
you obviously should have hired the services of a "permit expediter" which is totally not a legal form of bribery
I use YouTube for music. Sometimes I type in things like 'retro programming synth music' , 'music while cleaning', modern mixed 90s electronic minimal' etc etc. You get dozens of music and whenever I hear a good song, I checkb the comments for the tracklist. Once every month I find a new song which I add to my like list.
For Carmack it might be a quick exercise. Plus he'll probably fix any bugs in the Haskell implementation he's using

I’m a huge fan of Graphviz and git. Text is easily diffable!

No word about the creative tools supporting this format?
Used to work for a hardware manufacture that did small runs of professional AV products (runs in the thousands, costs in the hundred to thousands of dollars).

The standard in the industry at this scale was and is 8x COG. That was what was required to pencil things out.

At that ratio we were initially 5x cheaper than competing products in an niche that had a de facto duopoly. Which we disrupted.

For a while.
I wonder how some of those can be verified accounts at all. They appear to have been hijacked just hours ago, their original content and followers are still there. The rules for Twitter Verification say "Demonstrate your account has a follower count in the top .05% of active accounts located in the same geographic region" yet some of these accounts just have a few hundred followers. Surely 300 followers cannot be in the top .05% of active accounts in, say, Indonesia?

Edit: The best one so far, replying to @POTUS: https://twitter.com/IYCKarnataka/status/1570126180791242753
I noticed the new editor. I can't say I'm a huge fan of it, but I did notice it.

I don't know how long ago they added the hover infoboxes, but I also noticed those. But that's a relatively small feature, at least from my perspective.
Why Browser Anti-Fingerprinting Techniques Are Not Effective
I think it's the amusement with which the young women are carrying out this work that galls... and that they're keeping most of the money. They're free agents.

The very idea of doing anything like this myself makes me shudder, but hey, if they're having fun and not scamming their customers, who cares, except this classmate who has hit upon the surest respectable way for an attractive young woman to get money out of many rich old men: decry, in lurid detail, the whoredom of your fellow young women.

She gets bonus points for insinuating that the gains we've made over the past century might not actually be that great, and that we gave something up when we got the legal system and economy to (mostly*) treat us like rational actors. My best childhood friend and I once mused that it's shame that we didn't had had the chutzpah to fall back on our Southern Baptist upbringing to do this when we were pretty young things; once you're over 40, it really doesn't work anymore. The role of "semi-attractive young mom in a moral panic" in that media ecosystem is well-filled.

* the unfortunate legal event of this summer excepted, which has already led to both horror stories that you can look up yourselves, and thousands of small tragedies that you'll never hear about. I dread the next few months (at best) for my fellow young American women.
I used to think this was a compelling argument. Unfortunately, child labor is really good economics. So is slavery.

An economics textbook I studied at university calculated the value of a slave in the US before the Civil War. Conclusion? “Perhaps it is a good thing they did not try to quantize back then. Slavery was profitable.”
Embarrassingly, I didn't believe it when I was told USPS OCR rejects less than 5% of hand-written address. I assumed that even if you could read the writing, the format would be too irregular to parse a lot of the time.

Part of the reason I was wrong is that so much of the address is redundant. I think they only use four letters of the street name, for example, before they essentially always can narrow it down to one possibility in their database.
Not for OLEDs. I just tested my LG C1, 64 watt difference between full screen black #0000000 and full screen white #FFFFFF at 120hz
This is not an issue that can be summarized in a HN comment, but you're not going to get anyone to agree to the extreme end of either spectrum (peak NIMBY or peak progressive), it just won't work.
For the most part, archaic and ad-hoc requirements yes. For example, you'll often see us complain about CEQA.

In an ideal YIMBY world, the government would just give a clear checklist of what can be built (based on safety and environmental requirements) and as long as your project follows that, no one should be able to delay or oppose your building.

What we have instead is arbitrary impact studies that anyone can throw to a developer and snooze the project indefinitely.
