I also have ADHD and have an adoration for old-style website design. Not necessarily the 2008 - 2013 era (which I like to call the 1970's of the web), but websites before that which were more cluttered and unrefined.

Websites from the old days surface far more relevant information on the first fold than do contemporary sites, which I believe have gone overboard with Swiss Style design inspiration such that they think empty space is always preferable. The fact that many websites today use extremely large fonts in order to pass accessibility tests also doesn't help, but this is partly subjective because I personally hate reading text greater than 16px.

Maybe I would think differently if I did lots of heavy reading, but that's hard to do these days because most prose on the internet is filler and total rubbish. If I want to just find something, a website being designed like a magazine cover really doesn't help.

Allow me to illustrate my perspective.

This website, which has been online since 1994, would today be considered one of the most poorly designed sites of all time.

http://amasci.com/

Bask in the dark repeating background, the neon colors, and the quirky use of font size.

And yet, unlike 95% of sites online today, it loads instantly, and is organized such that I can find what I might be looking for without distraction. The author provides a header guiding new users to categories, and underneath is a list of links to pages the author thinks I might be interested in. And that's it. No Fontawesome, no TypeKit, no box shadows, no hover animations, no hover dropdowns, no sticky headers, no scroll jacking, no transparencies, no accordions, no hamburger menus, no bullshit.

A "modern" website would make the first fold into a glorified billboard, hide anything interesting in horizontal navigation of categories that have to be expanded out, use 19px font for prose because The Google, a masonry type layout because CSS grid bro, a sticky header that annoyingly animates in/out, and one to three popup modals asking me to give them my email.
It's not uncommon that the word in black and white is "Unicode" and to a programmer writing software on Windows or (especially older) Java that seems to obviously mean UTF-16, while to a programmer writing say a Unix C program that means UTF-8. Both may feel assured they know exactly what's going on... but there's a miscommunication.

You definitely won't be the first person who got given UTF-16 and went "Ah, some fool added NUL bytes in between all my ASCII", I worked with a really excellent colleague, Cezary, a decade or more ago who made exactly this mistake on some data we were receiving.

Of course having never seen it I also can't rule out the documentation just being wrong.
Right- I've been a loyal EVGA customer for 10+ years but only for GPUs. I was planning an upgrade to the upcoming 4000 series but now I'm questioning whether to upgrade at all. But I agree with the sentiment expressed above, thanks for all the high quality GPUs over the years and good luck with what's next.
Ah sorry, I misunderstood the post I was replying to. I was actually agreeing to it: Lottery winnings are different from major gifts of illiquid assets, because you can always just pay the taxes from the winnings. In any case, you become liable for the tax immediately after receiving the gift/winning. If you cannot do that without selling the asset, and the asset is impossible to sell in the short term, and you cannot take a loan against the asset, your best option can be to refuse the gift.

And yes, this is a little bit insane.
I am still amazed anyone would use a proprietary password manager which stores in someone else's computer. That's the opposite of good password management.
So, if you say that race-based policies are needed to smooth out differences in socioeconomic background, why not abandon them in favor of criteria based on actual socioeconomic background of the involved person? Thus switching a very loose proxy for the real deal?

The current race-based policies consider Obama's daughters "marginalized" and an Ukrainian orphan "privileged". That is sort of awful and illogical.
I feel this validates my “no Philly” policy.

I grew up in NYC, and have a certain immunity to deal with aloof, hostile or otherwise obnoxious city officials. I’ve been to Philly on business and pleasure a few times and… forget it, it’s a whole other level. One wedding, literally 30% of the guest had a ticket, tow or other drama.

Life is too short. Philly makes Jersey look good.
I’ve flagged 100s of illegal firearms sales on Reddit and FB and not a single one has been taken down.
That sounds interesting. How do plan to fund that? 100mt a year of sequestration sounds like there would be a fair amount of costs and labour involved.

Tell HN: Access to my personal Gmail blocked
I have completely lost access to my personal Gmail email that I have used for more than 10 years.

I know and am entering the correct password, yet I still cannot log in.

Google is requiring an extra security check (because I use the browser in incognito mode).

This seems to be a recent change that is affecting many users.

I can't verify access to my email because I have no recovery email/phone and I can't remember the answer to the recovery question (the account was created more than 10 years ago).

Very sad! Being barred from accessing my account without a valid reason... and nothing I can do about it.
One of my professors described Toothbrush buying as the absolute most pathological case for the Paradox of Choice: dozens of ostensibly differentiated products, all in basically the same price range, all basically affordable, with no real way as a consumer to discern their efficacy or quality. You'll use the product for the next 6 months to a year, and if you pick the wrong one, your breath will stink, your teeth will fall out, and you'll need expensive surgery.
> Marriage is also a privilege, not a right.

While, of course, the current activist Supreme Court might change the law, marriage has been recognized not only as a right but as a fundamental right since (as at the latest) Loving v. Virginia, 388 U.S. 1 (1967).
That's what I said, but wasn't clear enough to you.

The hardware capex for mining BTC with GPUs would outweigh any 'free' power you have access to. You can't just focus on one aspect of this business in order to calculate your ROI.
More in the way of a specific law. I don't think a full Sec 230 repeal is a good idea. I really, really want services to have to specify what you did wrong, and you should have some actual options to deal with these services. They have become utilities and need to have some accountability when they call you something vile.
No. The efficiency is so terrible compared to what heat pumps can do it's ridiculous. Think a few percent vs 2-300%.

Peltier coolers have one thing going for them- they have no moving parts*. That's it. Which means they still have their niche! But everything else about them is awful compared to other cooling solutions.

*in practice most applications use fans for the heat sinks.
Yeah, that's the rule. Some nuance to it: must be fully cancel-able for shipments that cannot be shipped in (a) the timeframe provided in solicitation; (b) 30 days if none; or (c) a revised shipping date.

It's unclear whether the claim on the phone that it had already shipped is a revised shipping date. If so, then they obviously cannot meet it, which then would require them to notify the customer and allow them to cancel.

It's always odd when a statute or regulation makes unstated assumptions about the way a problem plays out, because it makes the applicability questionable.
I can't believe someone like this can grow a business to 15 employees in the first place. Just tell the customer all sales are final. Is this person out of their mind?

> Why would you think it would be anything else?

The age limit for the presidency is explicit in the Constitution. It may be implicitly overturned by 14A, but there's an argument that authors of 14A knew about the presidential age limit, and chose not to overturn it explicitly, thus, the age limit for the presidency stands as an exception.

I'm not claiming to be correct, nor you to be wrong, but I don't see this as being as cut-and-dry as you do. I don't see current SCOTUS majorly agreeing with your assessment, especially by those who claim to be constitution originalists.

If I were on SCOTUS, I would concur with your argument.
The only reason Condorcet systems are "complicated" is because they are always described along with their tiebreaking process. With any other voting system, the tiebreaking process is considered to be a cursory detail, and a particular voting method can have different types of tiebreakers while still being considered the same system.

Condorcet itself is simple: Look at each pair of candidates and see who was ranked higher by a majority of voters. Elect the candidate who beats all the others.
Amazing. Have you ever considered the effect at large ? In education or workplace ?

I see so much misery that could be replaced by joy, insight, friendship..

My primary experience is with AMD cards.

My guess is a vbios or driver bug. You could also be running into a tuning issue. GPUs are amazingly complex beasts.

It's fun that the motivation for exposing insider trading is selling an app these days, rather than selling newspapers (or advertising space in newspapers if you are being cynical).
Not just Glasses, but Braces as well
While trademarks and pricing is an element, the main lever the manufacturer has is mainly just future chip supplies. If you get one thousand 3080 chips from NVIDIA and make them into video cards that you sell well above the price NVIDIA wants, they will simply just not renew your contract when it expires. No chips, no cards.
Sure, lets start with what I can only assume is your premise, that since millennials are very recently the largest adult demographic , that somehow translates into any current issue being implicit agreement by the millennials?

1. millennials are very very marginally above boomers in % of population, when separating each demographic.
https://www.statista.com/statistics/797321/us-population-by-...
- this doesn't give millennials majority rule, ie (boomers + gen x ) is larger
2. It is not the case that population numbers are directly proportional to power. Even on paper, this has never been true in the US. It is a democratic republic. A million arguments could be made why this ideal is even barely true.
3. Political power in the US is so far removed from I'm guessing your libertarian? view of politicians. They are not servants of a populace power. It is also not a failing of millennials if politicians are in contradiction with "millennial" belief.

4. The US is not a vaccuum. One trillionaire would have more power than 99.99% of millennials combined. this isn't the french revolution.

I feel like your reply to politicians not being representative of the marginally larger populace of millennials is a moral failing of millennials for not starting a revolution. Which is absurd.
That sounds like it's more a problem with your country's ongoing deinternationalization than EVGA being bad. Would you expect a company to open a Russia-based repair center right now?

When a country is deliberately harming its international trade ability, it's not on companies for not playing ball—it's on the country not to pull the ground out from under its citizens and companies doing commerce there.

EVGA did nothing wrong. Your country changed the deal, EVGA chose to not humor it.
Well don't buy their PSUs, since they're just some random Chinese PSUs with an EVGA logo slapped on it.

Source: I had one of their PSUs, it randomly died due to a failing fan, and I had to wait 3-4 months for a replacement. They only sent me one after I complained to them on their customer satisfaction form which was also broken and directed me to some US agents, while I'm in EU. I finally got a new PSU with US cord, and some EU cord adapter thrown into the package. Kinda bizarre.

Many people on the web report issues with their PSUs and recommend against them.

PS: I had great experience with their RMA process. They replaced a 4.5 year old GPU and even gave me a better one. So I'm still pretty happy with them.
As a transplant to Philly for college from VA, Philadelphia definitely sits in a weird area when it comes to their cultural contributions. New York does their best to make sure people from Philly know they aren't allowed to be culturally relevant like they do with New Jersey so there's a little bit of mixing of culture from Philly to NJ. It has Baltimore to bully in a similar way as NYC does but evidence of the culture is obvious. Jersey club as a music genre is wholly from Baltimore but obviously influenced from Philadelphia.

But its influence seems to be completely stopped at DC, where people from Philly "who made it" but not in NYC try to show they aren't from Philly.

I lived there through college, and never felt any influence to pick up the slang since it seemed to just exist in a bubble that was ridiculed from all sides. I would say I wanted a hoagie at the store, because they would pretend they didn't know what a sub was, but thats about it.

But jawn seems like the most boring word that online articles like to talk about. Its obviously prevalent but its also not unknown and actually fairly common. When I was in Philly earlier this year a lawyer's ad on the radio used it prevalently to try and show some kind of connection to the city. Its kind of unique but uninteresting, similar to a broccoli rabe sandwich bloggers rave about since the best cheesesteaks in the city have basically been established for decades now.

Now an article explaining 'actin jo (joe??)' I'd love to read about because I've never gotten a straight answer on that, but have seen fights get started because one girl said it to another.
Sketchy details from memory, so if I said anything that conflicts, assume your version of the facts is more correct than mine.

I do think I was confusing/conflating AMI MOS with MOS. And do recall that Mostek was a separate company. It doesn't help that MOS chose such a generic name for their company. Didn't they realize this wouldn't be searchable via Google?!? Did they learn nothing from Microsoft naming a language C# and an API .NET?!?

It is quite possible I am discussing a different chip. Again, apologies if I lead anyone astray, certainly not my intention. There were many such devices that came through my hands over the years. I wrote firmware in assembler for a bunch of slot machines I would swear blind used a TMS9900 but speaking to friend a few months back he assured me that it was not that CPU at all but one very much like it.
This is silly. Unix already existed, what's the point of linux?

I do feel like Nvidia is the only one with the right mix of market muscle, knowhow, and patents/licenses to pull of an ARM based competitor to Apple's products. AMD is doing some great things but can you imagine an M1 level product that sips power like a champ but has the graphical muscle of a proper 3070? The M1 Ultra is decent, but just doesn't compare to a proper dedicated GPU (on blender benchmark, the desktop M1 ultra seems to perform slightly below a laptop 3050).
Maybe your right that the 14th overrides the 35 year minimum (I can see legal arguments going both ways), but until you get a court ruling to that effect then in practice the limitation exists.
I have already stated the the evidence that would convince me and you have not provided anything similar. The evidence that you have provided would not suffice in a research environment which is the standard that I use.

Coroner data is not useful in this case as deaths are not necessarily correlated with other behavioral abnormalities.
So it sounds like car towing is outsourced to some kind of bounty hunting operation of private companies and no one know their arse from their elbow about where cars are moved. Pretty stupid. It would be easy to fix even with pen, paper and phones. But there should be a signed paper trail about the move.

And dropping the cars off in illegal spots, well the fine should go to the “driver” not the car.

I guess they are too lazy to
change this or it is profiting someone personally?
So you can rent time in a mining farm with money but you can't buy ETH with money? Why not?

What I do like on Facebook Marketplace is that it seems to understand what I’m looking for. On Kijiji I have to do try all the different ways someone might have written something, including common spelling mistakes. And since I live in Quebec, I have to do this in two languages. On FB Marketplace it seems to find all variations in one search.
> _is_ this theft? If not, why?

No, the asset is being moved, not retained by the mover, and it's ostensibly being done for the public good (edit: see the link further down the thread for why this matters). If _eminent domain_ isn't theft, this definitely isn't.

> Does it matter if it's done by a private towing company?

Not if they're deputized.

Scammed for my airline reservation info
The scammers are at it again, and they’re getting more creative and ruthless. Today my gf wanted to upgrade her flight on a major commercial airline. She wasn’t able to do so online, so immediately googled the airline, in the sponsored google results there was a toll free number to call. She called the number and gave the “agent” her booking reference number and her last name. The "agent" asked for additional flight details like flight number and destination, but those weren’t really necessary.

After she gave the details the “agent” hung up immediately. It was soon apparent that this was a scammer. Immediately panic set in, what could they possibly do with that information? Upon further investigation, they can do quite a bit. They can add food to the flight, change the seat, pay for an upgrade, all of which require payment and make life better. However, they can also cancel the flight without verifying any further information. Evidently the scam is to cancel the reservation and resell the travel voucher since it’s only a 13 digit code and transferable. Be vigilant out there, and be sure to use ad-blockers to block sponsored Google ads.

AI trainer?

I have a dystopian view of the future world so I think a lot of tech work will focus on monitoring, analyzing and predicting. AI is going to play a big part of it but I don't think General AI is going to be easy. Most likely people will simply train AI accordingly, like the mainframe operators. Low pay but stable work.

Tech archaeologist?

Going forward a hundred years probably someone has to dig some tech and manual out and re-create them. A lot of the material is online now but imagine what happens if archive.org is forced to shutdown and the data is lost forever to the general public.
It's true, too. Hare RCV counts some voter's 2nd preferences but not others, which is why you get undemocratic outcomes like this one. A Condorcet RCV system counts all voters' preferences simultaneously.
Uncountable, e.g. "look at all this shit in my truck". I cannot count all the shit. For countable plural I will use the form "shits", e.g. "these two shits left their bikes on my lawn".

Announcing you aren't making the next gen product is not ditching people. They specifically state that they will continue to sell and service current gen gear.
Most of the people criticising my points are glossing over the key word of my post, which is listed. Not every business is listed, and those can be run for all sorts of reasons, but a listed business is a stock first and a business second. The stock is meant to enhance the owners' wealth (whether by going up, paying dividends, or both), and the business is just the means to that end. At least in theory, when that happens in a well regulated society, it turns out that the best way to make the owners richer is to give people what they want, and to allocate capital in the most efficient and productive way. Obviously reality may differ.
> Problem is, the city doesn’t have a modern, reliable way to track the vehicles’ new locations, leaving owners wandering the streets for days or weeks, looking for their cars.
