Clothing factories is how it started. They weren’t exactly talking a whole lot of shit as we kept investing in that trade partnership up until they got to this advanced point.

So, if this is the end of the line, we simply have to start again from zero in other economies. Start with the Nike sneakers all over again in some other part of the world, and don’t ever let it get so far where they also make your technology.
But then if you pay for news, you're told what you want to hear, so you wouldn't take your cash elsewhere.

Also about cost? You could use proton, but gmail is free I guess.
Yep, exactly.

True, but people do that about a lot of things.

People might become a dentist but then start to hate it, but the $$$ is too good and how is he or she going to start as a newspaper cartoonist for $13,000 per year because that is their interest?

If you don't know what you want, and don't have any real absorbing interest in too much, if nothing really turns your crank, why NOT go into the highest paying job that you can get? Nothing wrong with that?

I think these days way too much emphasis is put on the whole "Do what you love" thing. Who loves being a convenience store clerk, or a gas station attendant or movie ticket taker?

But people do it, for the sole reason that they need money. And do it year after year, for a lifetime.

It's the real high-end problem when you decide between being an investment banker, a programmer for google, a lawyer at a top 10 law firm, or a brain surgeon that graduated from Harvard med school.

Personally, I have no interest in anything. I've "explored" all kinds of areas, more than most. I'm one of those people you read about that's done 489 different jobs (hyperbole, but not much, I don't think). Nothing turns my crank. What am I supposed to do? So, I just keep going from industry to industry, lacksadaisically, wandering aimlessly through life. Am I supposed to have a goal? Am I supposed to only work one job, one career for 60 years? Those are not real questions, because I don't really care too much.

Sometimes you just gotta do what you gotta do and be a robot, go to work, go through the motions, and collect your paycheck. No dancing girls in your office every day, no $5 million gold sink in your private office, no live concert by Miley Cyrus in your personal office, how rude, how can I live without being catered to my every whim and being so, so, so happy? I MUST be happy, I MUST have a real interest....snnnnooooore. Get real, people.

The only ones whose world is their oyster are people who graduate from a top 10 school, they truly can do anything. The rest of us hacks that graduated from anything below that, or god forbid a middling or low end university with a C average, we take what scraps that fall on the floor. Let alone high school graduates, or worse, those who never finished high school.

Count your blessings.
I guess there are two questions:

1. Will we have hyperinflation at some point?

2. Will we have all-out war?

Everything else can be answered by the standard "don't spend more than you make, invest in a broad-market index, keep your reserves available".

But if you have those things covered, you may want to consider thinking about what you could do to mitigate 1 and/or 2. You don't have to go bunker-prepper, but you can do things that could help in those cases (and even in boring emergencies like hurricanes) - for example, change your eating habits to always have 2 weeks-6 months of food on stock, rotating through it, things like that.
Definitely not true for UC. Had a friend whose mom is a professor there. There wasn't anywhere to indicate this.

Privates ask about alumni connection, and possibly about teaching connection. But not the public schools.

Regardless what you've mentioned isn't proof that this is why so many get in. The fact is that kids of PhDs are likely to have genetic and educational advantages. That is likely much of the reason that they get in at a higher rate.

Having your own email/domain isn’t about privacy. Email has become essentially the key to almost everything in modern life. If I lose access to my email I lose access to basically everything I own and it would be a massive hassle to switch emails. Banks, schools, apps, etc. Often times these services won’t even let you change to a new email if you don’t have access to an existing one. Some use email as 2factor. It’s a nightmare. Owning your own domain separately is crucial. Who hosts your email matters less.
The true scrappy solution would be screenshots in a google doc. Not whatever you did here

Also, I found you have no "about" or "contact" section with information about you, which is kind of standard so I was surprised.
I doubt it. It is not reasonably “your data”. If I copy the email you sent me to dropbox would be the same sort of thing.
I started undergrad as an engineering major in 2005 and I remember [somehow] thinking very clearly that programming was fun and interesting but would be a self-indulgent thing to study since it was just for making fun websites and video games... going to art school to pursue a teaching job legitimately seemed like the more practical choice somehow. I had a blast and don't regret the art part, and teaching was extremely rewarding, but I wish I had kept programming.

I started up again in 2020 in my mid-thirties with a newborn but it took a bootcamp and a lot of guidance / help from friends to catch up with what modern development had become. I've loved every minute of it and I cant believe what a relief it is to be on a stable career path, even with the hiring freezes etc.

Anyway its aways great to see this kind of thing on the top of HN. The future of human labor is software, and we all really can do it. Maybe, like I know.

As far as i can tell the host header is pointless, because if it's ssl/tls you won't be able to read it and route it. That's what sni is for. If you aren't tls then you don't need it, unless you hit the server as an ip. But then why would you do that?
My filters apparently are catching it pretty well, but 32/203 on my work email are gmail spams.

I think they're focusing on it because so many systems have hard-coded rules to let gmail through because "it is email".
Consent was never obtained for Clearview AI's dataset, they scraped those 20 billion images anywhere they could get them (Facebook, LinkedIn, etc).
I'm pretty excited about the long form factor they have when you shuck them from the casing. The spread out nature of the board makes it appropriate for all kinds of things, like a home-made laptop or cyberdeck, or bicycle computer.
> not airing a prime time presidential address to the nation because your ratings would go down

The networks didn’t air it because it was deemed to be an election year political speech.

BRICS is not a coalition, it is just a label for emerging economies that aren't 100% onboard with the US system. China and India aren't in a coalition, in fact their relationship has some rough spots.
The F-keys won't be useful for me. Reaching them would require me to move my palms.

After using split keyboards for some time, I came up with a setup that only uses 3 rows, and relies on layer switching (mostly using the thumb clusters) to quickly access any keys.

Maybe on a highly curved keyboard like the Kinesis hitting F-keys would be just a matter of bending your fingers more, and not a matter of moving your palm though.
> the lack of F-keys is baffling. The vertical real estate is non-issue on a desktop, you win nothing by getting rid of the F-row.

It's not too outlandish considering the rest of the keyboard, compared to a standard keyboard.

It looks like the Kinesis Advantage 360 is really intended for you to use it with two hands on home row. So, compared to a common layout:

- it's symmetrical & isn't row-staggered,

- lacks the numpad/cursor keys/etc. (which would require your hand moving some distance),

- it lacks a giant spacebar, and instead offers more keys the thumb can reach.

So, many of the design decisions favour hands resting on home row, and getting rid of keys which require moving the hand some distance. -- Dropping the F-keys is in line with this.

"All kinds of incongruity can get us laughing" I first heard from a talk or interview by John Cleese (and impossible to find, with his serious stuff on the science behind humor lost in all the results of him being funny). And it ties into evolutionary biology. We find the unexpected "funny", which chemically reinforces our memory of the unexpected, so we learn and next time it might not be unexpected and we react faster. And laughter signals others, so they can learn from it too. We even learned to reenact and verbalize, allowing others not even present to learn. So we laugh at pratfalls and are later morally aghast at ourselves thinking the lucky escape from serious or fatal injury was funny.

">I have run my own email server which I use for all of my non-work correspondence. I do so to keep autonomy, control, and privacy over my email"

if you want to retain control or privacy over correspondence, email is a horrible medium because by design anything can be forwarded, shared and copy&pasted trivially and this is done all the time. One guy is enough to leak an entire email chain. Good rule for email is, treat writing email as if you're speaking publicly.
Because Taiwan is the single most important producer of semiconductors in the world, is the most important reason. If China gains that, they gain the world. Everything is dependant on that. They would have a chokehold on the world.

Also, Taiwan is an unsinkable aircraft carrier. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unsinkable_aircraft_carrier

It can be used as a staging location for an attack on China, same as Cuba could be for Russia. Look what the USA did there.
This would prevent them from doing so with _anyone_.
Just because there have been changes in the past does not mean that this is like all of the others. This is happening at an accelerated rate that is much higher speed than the evolution rate of plants and animals. The result will be a mass extinction of species. That has happened in the past and overall life does recover but many species are gone and things are very different afterward. No one wants to be alive during a mass extinction but they all would hope to survive. There is no guarantee that humans would survive this extinction.

Even if the climate changes do not directly kill us off, it will stress our societies to a possible breaking point, with the risk of famine, war, and general societal breakdown.
Did that realisation make you less horrified?
Same. In a heartbeat.
> If governments dictate when media outlets receive funding and how much

Parliaments decide how and how much funding media outlets receive. Not governments. And the people elect the members of parliaments. You make it so that every outlet that reaches over a certain threshold of viewers gets funding proportionate to the share of viewers it has. Just like public election funding and how parties receive funding based on their vote shares.

Doubt any side is uncomfortable or desperate enough for war. The comfortable don’t fight. They do, however, demo their weight.

There’s at least one or two month blockade somewhere in our future where trade halts between the super powers, where we all glimpse into the economic center of the earth that we know certainly exists. Economic morbid curiosity.

Then we’ll all sit back and go “woah what a world, economic death does exist, US is a big deal, so is China, so are all these other countries, let’s diplomatically settle this, we’ve had our exploratory mushroom trip in the desert, as all people need to, you know, find themselves”.

But no war, we’re all far too weird for that now at this point.

Wait, I just realized I rhymed. We did the same nonsense with the nukes during the Cold War. There’s something magical about human natures curiosity for “we just wanted to see what it would be like, but we would never …”.
check out the diving bell and the butterfly, movie adaptation of a first hand account of someone who went through this. incredibly powerful film, and the physical is only half of the nightmare. because the man who had become completely paralyzed (apart from one functional eyelid - his other eye was drying out and had to be sewn shut while he helplessly screamed in silence begging the doctor not to bring the needle near his eye) had a rather unflatteringly messy personal life, and was in a position of witnessing all of his dirty laundry being aired between his mistress, and his wife, and his dying father.

all while he was completely competent mentally, but completely incapable of representing himself in any of the intrigues that were unearthed consequent to his injury. all a true story, written by the author while being locked in, one agonizing eye blank at a time with the aid of a nurse who finally figured out he was conscious.

Rome's population collapsed dramatically after the fall of the empire, by the medieval period, Rome's population was 20,000. Even London didn't exceed 100,000 until the 17th century and most European towns were small villages with a few hundred to a few thousand at most.

By my reading of history, the Americas were relatively better off than Europe for much of the dark and middle ages, in average health, height and even lifespan. They were probably at least as populous as Europe if not moreso.

Teotihuacan was one of the largest cities in the world for much of the last 2000 years. Modern day Mexico City (25 mi from where Teotihuacan was) has 9 million to this day.

There are also massive ruins of cities in the Amazon for which we know very little about from this era. The biodiversity is also incredible in the Amazon, so there could feasibly be many zoonotic diseases in those jungles. I'm partly playing devil's advocate here, I do think the racial diversity and intercontinental exchange in the old world contributed to it.
Man, that title screen. There's a clear beauty in 1-bit displays that's really hard to explain to people who've never seen them in person. I remember the absolute beauty of the black and white Macintoshes, those pixels so immediately next to one another and only maximum contrast manipulated to make beautiful art.

It can't quite be replicated on modern displays. Even screenshots don't do it justice. It's the closest thing to newsprint until the kindle.

You’re just describing carefully designed video game mechanics for adaptive hitboxes.

The game is effectively giving you a way more massive hit box when you’re not scoping than when you are. In turn you are more likely to hit something but you usually do lower damage and bullets will prefer the torso hit box, so you’re unlikely to get a head shot.
I would not allow such shenanigans on any machine under my control
Sounds a lot like what was said before a world war; things can get ugly way faster than we're used to - and it may not even be a war directly involving the US or any particular country.

Russia and Ukraine has already caused massive secondary effects throughout the world, and that's a "relatively" minor conflict.
Ahh chinese traditional medicine, a blight on our poor animal friends.
Unfortunately, for people living in China, such as me, the only reasonable ways, under Xi's reign, are either to start a rebellion or to go abroad. Actually, the term "Run-ology"(润学), which basically means the study of running away, has been quite popular in China for some time. My current plan is to find a new job in a western country, hopefully.

I used to think that my country was just an authoritarianism state and things would get better, but now I know that it's simply dictatorship. I feel so sorry about what's going on in the land I love so much.
Which is also true for heathcare, education, prisons and many, many more aspects of US society.

From Article 4 of the GDPR:

> ‘personal data’ means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (‘data subject’); an identifiable natural person is one who can be identified, directly or indirectly, in particular by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural or social identity of that natural person;

As I (entirely non-lawyerly) interpret it, you could not do a GDPR request to delete the counterparty emails, because those are things written by you, not information about you. However, an email in which you state "I broke my leg today." would be personal data, because it can be connected to your identity and is information relating to you.
Absolutely.

China has a very public long standing policy of engaing in global economic colonialism via its "one belt | one road | silk road 2" strategy.

I agree with you that the Spotify (and Apple family plan) approach usually make the most sense—the big difference between the models is the device that they’re utilized on. A phone and a laptop is generally a personal device, whereas a TV is shared.

I get that you can login to Netflix on a laptop or a personal device, but the platform lends itself to lean into a larger medium, like a TV, which may explain why they’ve chosen this model.
> I do not care about layers or whatever ergonomic arguments that arise.

I tend to think this is more a matter of preference, so, sure, this keyboard isn't for you.

But what's your experience with layering? Is it "tried it, reached the same typing speed as before, didn't like it", or?
I’d agree and I normally find the style of comedy boring… but then there was Mitch Hedberg. I don’t think most of his jokes were particularly great (though a few are very memorable!), but the way he queued and layered them was brilliant and often undermined the whole format he was using which made him laugh, which broke the fourth wall, which… well, it wasn’t a cheese grater but it ruined a sponge quite well.
