True, but signing the commits with a key for a specific subsection would mean you attach responsibility for whatever was in that commit. Right now the system is, a bill is listed with who "sponsors it." That can mean they wrote it, it could mean a lobbyists gave it to them or that several people spread across the staff of different representatives wrote it. Sure, we could say who sponsors it bears full responsibility, but its not practical, especially when a bill grows to become a tome. Using a VCS system like git isn't full proof, a senator could just pass out their keys like candy, but I think it would mean a whole lot more if voters could go, "well here is your commit to this bill on X day at Y time, signed by your keys." It may also help correlate the wheeling and dealing that goes on and more importantly, how a bill changes as it goes through committees.

Edit: Actually it could have several other benefits. A senator could tag a "release" of the bill prior to the bill going to committee so the Senator could say, "look, this is the state of the bill now after going through committees, but here is a diff from when I tagged it before it going to committees. So no, my opponents are wrong when they say I put a provision in this bill to stock my favorite fishing hole, just check the difference."
This is also talked about in Nguyen's work, as the difference between "epistemic bubble" and "echo chamber". It's worth checking out

This is a bit too late! PSYOP campaigns have plagued Twitter & Facebook from the beginning. Twitter cracked down multiple times on fake accounts, but the operators change their modus operandi each time. It's basically whack-a-mole against the troll farm operators. Requiring phone numbers might slow them down, but then they just acquire a bunch of SIMs and continue registering. The only way to stop this is verifying people's passports and their account has to be held in their legal name. Just like a bank. It might be over the top, but it's the only way to drastically reduce the amount of propaganda, spam, astroturfing, dis-info, and artificially inflated metrics of Twitter & Facebook.
I'm willing to give Amazon a lot of slack given who they are and what they're attempting to take on, as long as it's entertaining, i.e. I've set my expectations pretty low. The thing making it disappointing for me though, is that if they're going to dole it out at one hour a week, the episodes should have more in them. Or if the eps are individual slow burns, maybe drop the whole season at once so I can binge it. Apparently my attention span is too short.
Does it just have to be free to use, or does it have to be an open source?

Free: Just upload them to private YouTube videos and Google will transcribe it for you. You can then manually refine the captions and download the files afterward.
HN is literally a site for the kind of people that would be interested in such topics, and a lot of what otherwise makes first page on other sites is banned to keep things interesting. Why are you surprised that ultra-niche topics like these, of all things, are trending?
Working memory happens to be the technical term used in medicine/psychology.

For example, one of the main symptoms of ADHD is limited working memory; thought to be caused by underdevelopment in areas of the frontal lobe.
> But yes, no ability to single-track is an issue.

Though it's not an absolute panacea, either. The Washington subway has crossovers every two to three stations and is set up for bi-directional operation on one track, and the two things I immediately noticed when I visited Washington eight or so years ago were:

- service levels on weekends were already only meh even without construction works

- there were construction works on a very small segment of the Red Line between two of those aforementioned crossovers – those works only required closing one track, so they decided to continue running a service on the remaining track. Unfortunately single-tracking severely limits the number of trains you can run, so that tiny closure meant that on that weekend the whole length of the Red Line (all 32 miles of it!) was only operating every 20 minutes or so (originally I had considered an accommodation along the Red Line, luckily I had reconsidered and chosen a different place to stay even before learning about those construction works).

After some googling, it seemed that this (i.e. construction works on a tiny stretch of track significantly affecting the service of the whole line even during the daytime, at least at weekends) was not an uncommon occurrence in Washington.

While single-tracking might be no problem late at night (when a reduced frequency doesn't matter that much, and might not be even all that much reduced as compared to normal service levels at that time of the day), or during unplanned short-term disruptions, for that kind of scheduled-in-advance all-day construction works I'd say it's at least debatable whether a complete closure of the affected stretch of track (with a bus replacement service) and a full service on the whole rest of the line might not be a better compromise…
I've even heard emoji referred to as "the carrot that keeps the implementations current." Every time a new version of Unicode is published, a few more emoji are tacked on. It acts as incentive for all the cellphone carriers and such to put the money into updating their implementations, because nobody wants to be the one on the block with the one phone that can't render "Mirror Ball" .

What is the antitrust risk? As both you and the author say, there’s viable alternatives in the market - and this deal will encourage more of them. It’s unclear how any consumers are harmed by this.
You might be overtraining! While a more intense run can certainly have that effect, especially to a new or infrequent runner, a light effort jog (zone 1 heart rate or below) usually leaves you feeling better than you started.

Really? I wasn't aware that there is another USB security key with measured boot-based key derivation. Please provide a link!

> Can you give a bit more compare and contrast to the original question?

Except for Tillitis Key, all USB security keys I'm aware of either boot any software, or only boot software that has been signed with a key pair. Tillitis Key is different in that it measures the application, and uses that measurement to derive a secret specific to the application as well as the stick it's running on.

The author's final point is extremely good.

The result of this should spawn a herd of Figma-like companies, since a good exit and big payout is strongly assured by both a validated market and backstopped by the likelihood of an Adobe buyout.

>>I’m not making a legal argument here about the FTC and how you define antitrust, monopoly, etc with regards to M&A. I’m just saying I think it’s stupid and short-sighted to block a transaction like this. Adobe is giving their pound of flesh. Figma is being incredibly well-rewarded for innovation. And if you remove the potential for acquisitions by the market leader from the startup playbook you’ll actually get fewer startups going after the market leaders. And that has worse ramifications for the economy and for consumers than incremental consolidation like this. Especially since there are plenty of other tools available to accomplish one or more of the same functions Figma does.

The “battle of preparedness” for grandmasters looks miserable. My experience being bad at chess is pretty cool, though.

If anyone’s looking to pick up chess, it’s a pretty good time to do it even if the people making a living out if it aren’t enjoying it anymore. It used to be that computers would only crush you without helping, but now they’re able to point at your mistakes and show you where the game shifted from one player to the other.

It's not about what juries want. Do you get a royal flush on every hand of poker? Why would you expect that in any given court room in America you'd land a case where the judge is stupid, and the prosecutor is stupid, and juror number one is stupid, and etc. It's unlikely. If you're really the smartest guy in the room, you're not going to be arguing semantics in there. And if you try, you'll quickly become the most unlikeable guy in the room. Which is a lot worse for you.

Within each party is where you find the subdivisions. Democrats have within them Socialists to classical liberals" and the Republicans have MAGA to traditional liberals. It's fluid though.

It's within the primary elections where you see the most interesting elections at times. Sometimes you'll get a challenger in a district where it makes sense, like when AOC took on an established classical liberal and flipped it, pushing the representation leftward while still being Democrat.
Seems rather easy to join this network: an internship. Which usually is awarded meritocratic, too.

But attitude matters a lot: if you sped this internship complaining how people are unfair and are not inviting you the their networks and circles - do not be surprised success eludes you.

I've always been more emotionally invested in games where I make my own plot, which is the genre GTA is supposed to be. I haven't played since GTA 3 but maybe they're providing too much of a story which is unsatisfying? The really open plotless games are so much easier to lose yourself in than a well manicured plot. Like Sid Meier's Pirates back in the early 90's and Mount and Blade Warband

These "hate hoaxes" are quite common. A few of the more prominent examples from recent years include Jussie Smollett, the Rolling Stone rape story, Yasmin Seweid, and Covington Catholic. Come to think of it, it seems like most of the major stories about some racist or sexist incident turn out to be false.

It's not surprising that people do this, given how much value modern society places on "victimhood" and being a member of some oppressed group. What's more worrying is the tendency of the media and society to accept these accusations uncritically and jump on the bandwagon to condemn the alleged wrongdoer.
Ugh - really? What was the change? I found this, but it looks like a crack, but not a repeal - https://foreignpolicy.com/2013/07/14/u-s-repeals-propaganda-...
Or chances are, the more features they would have demanded by spec from the start, the smaller the number of people actually interested in implementing it would have gotten, and it would turn into a single implementation at most, or just hype at the worst.

They absolutely chose to do the protocol with enhanceable protocols, something greatly missing from Wayland, so I don’t think your criticism is fair here.
Hard agree.

But I feel like the author is "criticizing me" (not personally of course) because of the complexity that comes after the initial writing-down, since that is still part of my note-taking system, no?
Notwithstanding the replication crisis, "grit" is a social psychology term that has been popularized in recent years. It's presented as a desirable trait for lifetime success. I think attributing this perceived relative debasement to a company is a bit much.
IIRC, a gallon of gasoline is about 37,000 calories. So that's a lot of energy he utilized, all through his body burning fat and carbs!

I often wonder if Animate was a victim of responding too late to the mass exodus of Flash. I feel like had they put the time in to building a transition strategy using Flash/Animate towards HTML5 instead of betting that Apple's "Flash Bad, HTML5 Good" strategy would ultimately fail, Animate might have continued to be a stronger player in the web interface and gaming space.
Yannis Kouros was a legend. When I was a teenage, he was a 5-time winner of the Sydney to Melbourne Ultramarathon, from 1985 to 1990. The distance was 800-1000km. It took 5-6 days, running non-stop.

He was so much better than everyone else that "in 1988, the race organiser challenged him to start 12 hours behind the rest of the field. Kouros overtook his competitors and won the race with a one-hour lead over New Zealander Dick Tout." [1]

Yeah, the viewer paradox.

I want something new but don't change anything.

The point is, before the Disney movie, there were people who wanted an animated version of the original story, and Disney totally botched that especially the ending. Similar to Spielberg and Minority Report
The interesting thing is how words like ‘racist’ start to lose meaning so they simply start doubling down and using words like ‘fascist’ and ‘genocide’, then legitimately evil things that actually fit those words are easier to hide since they are just one of thousands being called those words daily.

It’s not doing anyone any favours.
bitmap spritesheets? Wouldn't that be converting vector graphics into a bitmap format? So a huge step backwards?
True, but once those machines are gone, they're fucked. Plus anyone having issues with Win98 is doing a lot worse than DLR.

Real long term thinking would be a modular signalling system where you could reliably replace one section in (say) 48h, so you could close for a weekend and reliably re-open with whatever tech we will be using in 2070 in place.

I might be a bit jaded on this. I spent about 8 years nursing these systems to keep them working because there was no way we could close a TfL line for 3 months and completely change the signalling system and make it faster, safer, more reliable, self driving etc. Even having moved to finance, I am routinely delayed on the way to work when the (new) CrossRail signalling system conflicts with the (old) system on the same line for different trains.

C'est la vie I guess, I understand discounting so basically anything that takes 40 years to be useful is NOT worth doing...

My interest in reddit faded when someone posted a link to 4chan and, and I looked at it pretty disgusted at who would make a site dedicated to obviously fake, often offensive garbage.

Then I saw their disclaimer, "The stories and information here are artistic work of fiction and falsehood. only a fool would take anything posted here as fact."

It seems like a dumb way to come to this realization but after turning this statement over in my head for a few weeks, it dawned on me that all the quirky stories I've been reading on reddit for years, even the believable ones, are fake. Part of this realization was actually posting a number of fake stories and getting some very highly upvoted comments.

That many people, journalists especially, seem to read twitter content with a default-true instead of a defaul-false assumption is scary to me.
Seems like the well-connected “game developers” had no problem doing just that.
That sound like a self-made problem. There are waypipe and several other options for using the desktop’s resources.
But over the long run it is still about skill, just the variance is much higher. Any single tournament the result will be dominated by luck but over 10s or 100,000s of thousands skill will dominate. Even the all in situations, you need to know when to go all in and when to call an all in vs when to fold. Better players are going to have a much better handle on this.

That's kind of a bizarre question, and I think you're misunderstanding what this is. This sounds like it's a story on the organization's internally-focused management, not some kind of external accountability thing meant to convince you of anything.
Genuinely curious: political discussions on Reddit are notably sterile and quickly devolve into shouting matches. Why even spend your energy or time arguing with shills/trolls/bots/someone whose opinion won’t change as a result of the discussion/argument?

I agree. The whole point of a free market is that it should lead to a competitive market, in which profits shrink and consumer surplus expands. He literally says that Figma is threatening Adobe's margins. Stopping mergers of companies like this is ... exactly what antitrust is for?
Short answer. Unpaid work, unpaid work, unpaid work.

Longer. Unpaid work, Passive aggressive abuse, no work life balance, bosses like in office space, an owner/CEO that will randomly storm in demanding drop everything and handle his problem of the week, no holidays, sneaky changes in your job contract, diluted options/stock, ignore your health, secretive sus behavior, psychological abuse, workday never ends... and more.
