I have recently been looking to try some creative coding / generative art. I've found that most libraries focus on interactive or animated applications, whereas I would like to generate a static image for print. Are there any recommendations for this specific use case? E.g. maybe svg-based libraries like Paper.js are more appropriate to generate high quality files instead of canvas-based ones like P5.js?
Vesting of options is supposed to be an incentive for employees to not quit, not an incentive for employers to fire people before it happens.

Trust is an iterated game, and while I'd not argue that you can't fire someone close to their shares vesting, I'd like to be fairly clear on shouldn't. If it's close enough that the political implications are obvious to the owner, it's close enough that the political implications are obvious to the other employees too. And so it becomes a political question.

In a non-iterated game, or one that only involved the employer and the employee, if someone has reached the point of being let go then there's no particular reason not to let them go, vesting or no vesting.

But in an iterated game, and when other employees can see and make inferences about what's happening, it absolutely makes sense to be seen to be generous. You are setting expectations on future behaviour that will make a difference to how the next rounds of the game are played.

I'm not in US so can't recommend any particular shoemakers. Google hand made / bespoke / made to measure shoes. Important is to find a shoemaker that will actually measure your foot, not just have you select template and size. Searching for "custom shoes" will not give you shoemakers, but just companies that let you to select materials, soles, colors, finish etc, but do not take into account your real foot shape.
Ability to flash an eink middle finger to the guy honking madly behind you?
You're deliberately using frivolous, made-up degree to try to dismiss the point. No matter, let's pretend someone doesn't have a "BA in Madonna Studies" and they have a degree you might respect more, like a BEng in Civil Engineering. Do you think they should have 70k in student loan debt that (with the UK's famously awful salaries) they'll be paying for over a decade? Of course they shouldn't. Hell, even less well-off European countries like Czech Republic manage to offer tuition-free higher education under the age of 25 - I don't see why non-Scots UK students shouldn't at least have more affordable tuition.

I'd also add that in the UK student loan debt is orthogonal to the problem of young people being unable to get onto the housing ladder. Remember that Scottish students do not incur the same level of student debt (on account of the government paying tuition) and they have similar troubles buying property. Salaries and house prices control this, student loans barely figure into it.
Just put a slave flash in your license plate lights. When the flash of the camera goes off, the slave flash on the vehicle fires, overexposing the license plate.

Bump-set-spike. That is how all great players play. There are exceptions for things like they messed up; or are exploiting surprise to do something wrong hoping it works out.

At amateur level it is much harder to predict as nobody follow thee proper order, and in turn this makes it really easy for someone just a little better than average win.
Unnecessary potentially breaking change. I'll rest my case.

TSMC doesn't really write chip design software. Maybe they do at some small level but that's not their bread and butter. TSMC provides IP engineers need to design chips to be built by TSMC. That IP is used by CAD tools from major players like Cadence, Synopsys and Mentor (now Siemens, I guess).
TSMC's advantage is their superior chip fabrication technology and ability to scale.
> have not actually experienced writing an application without a framework

There are a lot of different types of organizations, and their needs for development vary. Using well known tools reduces onboarding time, and in a large organization with turnover, that's not an insignificant cost. You really think the documentation you wrote for your app is better than those of a popular open source framework?

Frameworks also bring community defined best practices and standards. There is support from tooling like test frameworks that make functional / unit testing easy, linting and code formatting tools, IDE support, autocomplete snippets, debugging tools, browser extensions. These things might not be important in a small team, but with 100 devs, they bring real benefits.

> I just put all my state data in one object, save it on each user interaction

The saying is any "sufficiently complex app", and your approach to state management speaks volumes about the scale and type of front end apps that you work on. If you've never had bugs in your state using this strategy, it's wonderful. But if there were 100 of you constantly adding to and changing this global object, do really think that would be manageable?

How much state are you dumping in this object? If you only reference it on page refresh, your app must not be very reactive. One UI component could have quite a bit of state associated with it. One complex dashboard SPA could have hundreds of different pieces of state that are being tracked. Modern frameworks are tackling that problem, and the fact that you don't have it doesn't mean nobody else does.
Who was responsible for a delay isn't what's being asked at all. What's being asked is: "I have an employee who isn't producing the outputs requested of them in a timely manner, what should I do?" This has nothing to do with Feature X or Feature Y. They also highlighted behavioural issues. These are all within the scope of a leader to determine.

I was of the view that China could be the next super power and overtake the US.

But two things changed my view:-

1. COVID and their response to it. China still does not have a good vaccine and they still rely on lockdowns. That speaks a lot to how backward China is in basic sciences.

2. The move to remove term limits for the president. History tells us that one person can’t be relied on to make good long term decisions for a country specially a communist country.

Betfair works like a market - you are not betting against the house, but rather against other bettors. Betfair takes a commission from each matched bet. They would probably allow it - More matched bets means more profit for them.
Besides bringing nothing of value compared to existing licence plates, these would be more expensive and insecure. They would probably have a vastly worse carbon footprint, and consume way more energy and resources to make.

I interpreted the exchange as asking for precision when someone makes a vague statement in the context of a contract that defines things in clear terms.

In this situation, the number of grains of sand (N) to make a heap is defined! It's as if the GGP is debating whether N-1 grains can still be considered a heap regardless of the contractual definition. I think that's what the GP is getting at.
What does the lifetime earnings of the plaintiff have to do with anything? Jones made money by lying about these people. The value of the reputations he destroyed is not what you think it should be, not what you think would be average earnings for a different person, but rather what the market paid to the liar for his lies and the economic benefit he gained from them.

His lies had a measurable value of hundreds of millions of dollars a year, so the plaintiffs' reputations had that value, and damages should be calculated against that.

That is the fun part. OnlyFans is doing to Facebook what Facebook is doing to governments. The fact that the same person is involved in both really puts the point on it.

As for what they could have done instead, they could have gone the more traditional route and hired him as a consultant who attends a few offsite gatherings and maybe writes a policy memo for them if he’s feeling ambitious.

Why do you think he was hard done by on the student fee issue?

* In his manifesto he said he'd scrap tuition fees.

* He signed a _personal_ pledge against voting to raise them.[0]

* People voted for him with this information.

* He was able to gain power through a coalition government.

* He voted to _raise_ tuition fees.

You can see how people could feel betrayed by him[1]. I wouldn't say he was hard done by, and I think condemnation of that behaviour is a rational response.

[0] https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vote_for_Students_pledge

[1] ...the percentage of students supporting the Liberal Democrats had fallen from 42% at the last general election to 11% just after the vote on fees. 83% of students said they felt let down by the Lib Dem leadership's decision

You can have multiple programming languages in a program, so of course you can have multiple frameworks.
I found it hilarious that most of the people advice something along the lines of "you ought to let him vest for X/Y/Z reasons".

Is HN quiet-quitting and afraid of similar thing happening to them ;)

You don't owe him anything more than what has been agreed upon signing the employement contract, especially considering what looks like gross underperforming (if not blunt misbehaviour).

His vesting in 2 weeks? Too bad, this literally shouldn't matter to your decision.

Digital License Plates Become Legal for All Cars in California
He also wanted to outlaw immigration from Muslim countries. When he found out that was neither legal nor possible, he zeroed out quotas for worker visas, such as H1 & H2. And also zeroed out quotas of many immigrant visas such as EB1-3. Over 4 years that was about 2 million worker visas that were not issued. The media outrage over the "worker shortage" or "quiet quitting" should instead have been directed at the orange dude who made it impossible to import workers. When things were shut down due to covid, it was hardly noticeable. But now, blame gets flung in all the wrong places.
Maybe with hindsight, but their main policy was/is electoral reform which would end up with more coalitions. They needed to prove coalitions can work. Funnily enough, I'd argue they managed to do that after seeing the governments FPTP has given us since the 2015 election.

Approximate US death stats via CDC, influenza vs covid-19:

2018-2019 - Influenza 34,200

2019-2020 - Influenza 25,000

2020-2021 - Influenza 700 - Covid 350,831 (Lockdowns in effect)

2021-2022 - Influenza 1,700 - Covid 771,000 (Vaccines available/lockdowns lifted)

But by all means, explain how Covid-19's IFR is just 1.5x that of influenza. Please provide evidence from reputable sources that can reconcile these numbers.
Oof. I'll do the sentence diagramming for you.

OP said: "It's not a BILLION. It's a BILLION divided by fifteen plaintiffs, which brings the per-plaintiff number to a high-but-precedented number."

Th adjective "precedented" modifies "number". In this sentence, "number" refers to the quantity "a BILLION divided by fifteen plaintiffs".

Clearly, it's the per-plaintiff number that OP refers to as "precedented", not the total sum.

Figuring out that "precedented" refers to 1B/15 in the above sentence requires roughly a fifth grade reading level. The fact that InfoWars has an audience is become less surprising by the comment.

Hi Erica and congrats to you and the whole team! Super excited for a 1.0 release. I hope this means we get some official API docs soon. ;)

In terms of your journey, what do you think the main challenges were? I'm sure a big one is adoption and another performance but curious to hear what the team's thoughts are.

For me personally, the community has been absolutely stellar. Lots of folks always willing to help out. Just a year and a half ago, I found dataview and after avoiding frontend for nearly a decade, I've finally begun my journey with React. The entire experience was kickstarted by my finding Obsidian and trying to contribute to plugins that I loved. A special thanks to everyone from the community: shabegom, joethei, koala, blacksmithgu, pseudometa, Eleanor, Fevol, aquaman, metruzan, and many many others whose name I'm blanking on right now but I promise I'm grateful!
Typically 10-20% but the correct answer to this question is "it varies".
This is a great move. Everything should be open.
That link is dead for me. Do you have any more information on that? (I've not heard of this).
You're wrongly assuming US salaries. Not everybody gets 180k/year on the other part of the globe. And there are junior/med. devs in US too. Plus the subscription price is 600/year per person if you buy it as an organisation - https://www.jetbrains.com/store/#commercial. If it's a small company, chances are high that they may prefer a cheaper option.
> How could you possibly open a bank account with someone's random signed document? A signature on paper identifies who signed it. That is the point.

The normal examples are surreptition and impersonation:

* I could include your bank statement in the stack of physical documents reviewed for a new account. An overworked banker might miss the different name, or different signature, and treat it as another legitimate item for me when it’s a legitimate item for you. After all, it’s signed and legitimate looking.

* More interestingly, I can just pretend to be you. If you don’t already have an account with the bank, I can give them my phone number and address instead. I have your signed document!

The latter is how a lot of account fraud actually happens, and maps to PGP’s failure to provide strong identity through the “web of trust.” See, for example, people “verifying” email signatures by just looking the “right” key up on a keyserver.
Fire them now but give them the vest anyway. Just stop their pay but list their employment date as the day after vest if you have to - but discuss with your legal/HR on ways to ensure they don't try to collect "back pay" for those few weeks a couple months from now.
Most hit-and-run incidents do not currently occur within the view of a license plate-resolving camera, or in sight of a police cruiser in a position to initiate a chase. Other than in cases like these, the incident does not have to be anticipated 10 seconds in advance for the obfuscation to increase the chances of getting away with it.
I'm surprised I don't see any questions about viewpoint, perspective, or diversity of opinion.

Is there some wisdom being applied in their lack of enthusiasm for the task at hand?

Maybe there's some purchase or acquisition that's turning their part of the task Sisypheaan?

Perhaps they have some illness, or family issue?

These are all obviously important questions to answer before you retaliate.
So we are building www.livegenie.co to supercharge intercom or any other live chat software.

Livegenie will help you:

1. Track your website visitors and set up an alert criteria based on their behaviour (so let's say you want to track leads coming from your email compaign and spending more than 2 minutes on your pricing page)

2. Proactively video call your visitors for live demo straight on your website and cobrowse with them for an ultimate user experience.

On the other hand, you can also embed the live video chat widget on your software so you can provide live video support for your free users and convert them to paying customers.

Our MVP will be launched in 2 weeks for FREE so don't hesitate to join our waitlist and be among our beta testers!

Your feedback will be highly appreciated.

That's a very different thing than joining GNU. If your package gets adopted by thousands of peoples that's having this community thrust upon you.

I still feel you have an obligation to transfer to someone willing to shoulder the responsibility if this happens, an obligation incurred by publishing it in the first place.

Though, I don't feel too strongly about this.

> I think that is asking too much. Absence of certification from a licensed surveyor should be enough.

I don't. As someone who has actually worked in compliance and accreditation, fakes and frauds happen constantly, and regular laypeople have no reasonable way to know whether they're being defrauded over this or not. Web startups that claim to offer "Guaranteed Acceptance" (like his does) without having actually done any of the compliance work to earn that acceptance, are common -- the field is ripe with abuse.

"Absense of certification" is how you end up with food that's poisoned (it didn't promise not to be poisoned) or products that electrocute you (it didn't promise not to zap you) or fake land surveys (it didn't promise not to hold up in court)

You shouldn't have to be an expert in every single field on the entire planet, to not get scammed 24/7/365. It's one major reason why we require licensed professionals in the first place. A regular person might only see a land survey once or twice in their entire life, they can't be expected to know that these random website ones are fakes.

This person is selling drawings he knows are commonly used in place of land surveys, that are fake -- he's not a land surveyor, he's not licensed to sell these. (He could just get licensed, it's not that hard, every other surveyor in my state has done so, there's no cap or limit on licensing of these, it's not difficult to perform them legally).

--

His argument is no different than a fellow selling fake Drivers Licenses trying to get out of their consequences by claiming the board wants to "make printing photographs illegal"

> Sometimes it is appropriate to require a license professional to certify something, other times it is not

Sure, but property lines are a pretty clear place where a licensed professional needs to certify it. If you let laypeople do it without knowledge, then property rights start to lose the ability to get enforced fairly.
