I confess I didn't get that the post was about emacs. Reading the intro, it sounds more like it assumes nobody ever implemented something. And then goes on to describe what sounds a lot like how emacs works.

No one knows yet, because the successor to Privacy Shield is still currently more of an "agreement to do something" rather than an actual law. There is at least some movement in the right direction, which is to say the US is paying lip service to the notion updating domestic law to curtail law enforcement's access to data. But that hasn't actually happened yet.
Then there's Undo/Redo for navigating relationships (1994, interactive music video, Macromedia Director, Mark Canter, Meet MediaBand, UnDo Me):

Meet MediaBand (2/5) - UnDo Me

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8E-Sc9XafmE

>The second of two interactive music videos on Canter Technology's Meet MediaBand CD-ROM, UnDo Me could very well be considered the "Choose Your Own Adventure" of music videos - in that MediaBand's lead singer, Kelly Gabriel, has to choose from one of four different relationships. YOU help Kelly decide which one to try, and navigate her way through each relationship.

>At the end of each chorus, you are asked to make a branching decision based on whether Kelly should be passive (ice) or aggressive (fire) with the guy she's going out with. Things not turning out well for her? At any time you could "UnDo the past" and choose a different guy, or even jump back to a certain point in the relationship and change your decisions.

>Four separate videos were produced for each relationship (concluding in a total of 16 possible outcomes), connected together with an intro, a home chorus and reverse/"UnDoing" sections. As you could probably tell each section has a different musical style, reflecting the mood and personalities of the relationship that section represents. A version of the song can also be found as a separate CD audio track on the Meet MediaBand CD-ROM.

> The purpose of a PhD/doctoral degree is to boostrap a career in science.

It can be. I like to think that the doing science part is also valuable and that people can still contribute meaningfully to the world even if they come out the other side without a R1 faculty position. I like to think that my research ended up that way.

> If you don't work insanely hard, you are out.

I'm very good friends with a CS professor at MIT who didn't work unreasonable hours in grad school. Working incredibly long hours probably increases the chances of this sort of outcome and you are indeed competing with a lot of people for very few jobs.

People should be aware of the low success rate in the PhD -> R1 TT faculty pipeline. People should make informed decisions when attending a PhD program. But it is absolutely not the case that people are simply unable to produce good science if they aren't willing to spend their entire lives in the lab.
Ask HN: I want to propose spinning out my work from current employer. How?
The company I work for is in the middle of "modernizing" our backend tech stack. As part of this, a few years ago I was assigned a task that could not be completed with anything we had or could find in the marketplace. I designed and implemented a tool that allowed us to move forward (I'm intentionally not describing it); it has now been part of our production process for 6+ months; Somewhere between $15-20 million ARR depends on it and yes, it has been rock solid and dependable.

But, nobody wants to dedicate time or resources to maintenance tasks or feature requests. It seems destined to die of neglect unless I can take it outside the organization. This isn't a unicorn idea, more like a few dozen millions of revenue per year.

Has anyone tried to do this? How did you approach it? Basically what I want to say is "I want to quit and take this tool with me, and I want you to give me $500k for X% of this new company". Or am I way off base?

When you make common practice illegal, you invite corruption into your system because selective enforcement of the rules becomes the new normal.

Laws need to understand the environment that they are made in or will never be effective and oftentimes counter productive. As is the case here.

GDPR goes even further than would be reasonable for any small business that handles email addresses. Requiring a salaried data protection officer is not feasible. Unless you want to make small businesses illegal to operate online, you either are for selective enforcement or you do not want the GDPR.
You need that many companies trading with each other to create value and muddle the waters... Intangible assests and future flows passed from one entity to the other and priced at some unrealistic assumptions create/raise paper value.

This is how you blow the ballon...
While I agree with the general argument in the article that sales data and similar metrics should be public, I think there's a lot more that can be done to unlock all of the knowledge stored in books. There are vast amounts of knowledge that humanity has built up over centuries that are either hard to find or hard to access unless you know where to look. How does someone like me discover that knowledge for a topic I'm interested in?

I wrote a book that was recently published to help junior and mid-level programmers build up their soft-skills to advance their career[0]. The book was published by Holloway[1]. They have an interesting platform to solve this problem, which is why I chose to publish with them. They publish works primarily through their online reader, which is indexable by search engines. So someone searching for "How to get up to speed on a new codebase" in their preferred search engine could stumble across the chapter titled "How to read unfamiliar code"[2] and read a free preview of the book. Over time, people can discover and access the knowledge stored in any book that is published on Holloway's platform.

Another nice side effect of the platform is that it can be updated over time, so outdated knowledge or content can be revised, updated, and re-indexed by the search engines as knowledge about topics evolve.

If you're considering writing a book, or have a manuscript and are looking for a publisher, I'd recommend giving Holloway a look to see if it would be a good fit.

This is my hunch too. By heavily curating all content, a tiny portion will be served to a significant fraction of users, keeping costs lower by reducing the long tail as much as possible.
So, basically what you're saying is that the "Negotiate harder, bro" advice only really works for 1% of the world. So why is it always trotted out as the solution?

I know HN is full of these Captains of Industry who merely glance at their bosses with an upturned eyebrow, and get $100K of RSUs thrown at them, but for the rest of the workforce, here's what negotiation looks like:

[Me] Hi, I'd like a raise.

[Co] Nope.

[Me] OK, here are examples of the value I'm providing and how it's increased over time.

[Co] Your current salary accounts for this.

[Me] Other companies offer 20% more and I'm only asking for 10%.

[Co] ...

[Me] OK, I have an offer from the other company. Last chance.

[Co] Well... Bye?

Besides nothing bad ever happened to anybody when they read more books, got more disciplined, did more exercise, eat healthy, took more proactive action and whatever it takes to improve their lives. Even the worst case scenario leaves you in a better state than where you started.

Thanks for leaving such a thoughtful comment! I'll do my best to reply to specific parts:

> With first-class paragraphs, how do you position yourself in relation to Obsidian and Roam?

I don't use or see the utility of tools like this personally; they are in my mind a great example of Žižek's take on Lacanian "surplus enjoyment".

I imagine some people will nevertheless want to take things they save to Notado and export them to Obsidian, Roam, Notion etc., and I have built out incremental export APIs for people who have this particular use case.

> Looking at that example, is it possible to add comments to the quotes?

No, this is an anti-feature in my opinion for the same reason I mentioned above. People who want this would be better served using Notado as a unified content ingestion engine (comments, article highlights, kindle highlights etc.) and redirecting to the tool of their choice; anything from org-mode to Roam.

Commenting on content is such a difficult thing to get right and so many people have their own deeply ingrained ways and expectations around this that I believe it's best to delegate to the end user.

> I am looking for a timeless service where I can share a bookmark with others and have them add their comments, preferably openly with ActivityPub

I generally like having these conversations in real-time as much as possible, but I think there is a great idea somewhere in here. Let me chew on this for a bit.

> It would be nice to discover people with the same interests and their links about the same topic.

This is what Notado Feeds are intended for; I would love for it to catch on by people including links to their Feeds home in their bios on Mastodon, Twitter, Github etc. (this is what I do!)

I'm also looking at creating a hub to improve the discoverability of user-curated topic feeds, searching by tags, showing the most popular feeds by number of RSS hits etc.

> Do you have plans to extend kulli.sh to include Twitter and other social networks

Twitter was never really on the cards because it's such a developer-hostile platform to work and integrate with, and given its ongoing implosion this is even less likely to happen. I'm interested in somehow trying to include Mastodon (or specific Mastodon instances maybe?) in the future, but that's about all that's on my radar for the immediate future.

> The difficulty of ranking a huge amount of comments seems to be accessible with the history of good comments from notado.app.

This is a really cool idea; I would love to be able to even highlight or filter comments on a link from users whose comments I have previously saved on my Notado account on Kullish!
Agree it is both but it is very palatable in the local population to implement rules to shutout foreign competition. Easy political points.
I didn't try to suggest it because HN would probably downvote me to oblivion if I did. I personally, however, think that a quid pro quo is pretty likely - and Republicans would shout this from the rooftops if they had a little more sense in my opinion. Stealing a ton of money, giving a ton to Democrats, potentially helping win an election, and then not investigating or properly punishing the thief is a perfect crime... so, if I am the Dems, I would throw or at least try to get 150+ years in prison Madoff-style at a minimum.

Binance is effectively saying “I’m not going to tell you where I am but you should let me manage your money.” It takes a special kind of gullibility to accept that, but in the crypto world left has been right and black white for a very long time.

Binance’s US subsidiary is just as safe as FTX.US was, despite their claims otherwise. It will fall along with the other dominos.
I am not trying to come across as patronizing, but the US is, in my opinion, the greatest country in the history of the world.

I am sorry that you feel that way about your country as a fellow human (I am not being sarcastic), but my positive view on American exceptionalism has nothing to do with you personally, just your culture.

Like Elizabeth Holmes, they are kids of the elite who are well connected and supported at high levels. Further, SBF is one of the biggest political donors and there may be corruption in the SEC. The general counsel of FTX US had served as lead counsel to Chairman Gensler at the CFTC.

There was that time at the Philly airport that I was in line with a man in uniform who was speaking a language I didn't recognize to the people serving food which was a good starter for a conversation about the experience he had, then the guy in line said "Thank you for your service! Let me buy you a meal".

The soldier declined and expressed annoyance, I said "Let him do it, it's the least he can do" and he accepted it. My take it is that as shallow and unmirroring the guy behind us was, his appreciation really was sincere.

I'll take this response as a "No, I've never served in the military." You've also not substantiated your claims about how the military cultivates a culture of 'cheating.' At least give an example of what loyalty means to you, because it's certainly not going along with the actual definition of it, which does not require any sort of just cause or rational thought attached to it.

> The “drilling” you referred to is more comparable to brain washing than loyalty bound to reasoning.

Yes, and? It's training soldiers to be loyal to each other and to their superiors which are both important factors in battle readiness. You need to be able to follow orders in extreme situations and you need to have each other's back. This is taught to all SMs going through any training in practically any military in the world.

> Yes, loyalty is an [ideal] frequently never found, but to call someone loyal because they signed a contract or because they know what will happen if the report those willfully breaking the law, to me is not loyalty.

There's a thing called "unlawful orders" in the military. If a superior officer/NCO issues one, it is your duty to disobey it. This is easier said than done, of course. In either case, this is tangential to my point. What even is loyalty to you?

I really don't think it is that remarkable? The UK's history with domestic coal and then the global oil crisis in the 1970s are clear examples of an economic reliance on fossil fuels.

Both of those historic events are way before my lifetime, yet the concept of the UK economy being highly dependent on fossil fuels and their pricing seems like common sense to me.

Rare, midsize black hole caught devouring a star
here's the way I understand it:

-SBF's other pet project Alameda Research suffered huge loses after Luna blew up.

-Alameda Research, a 'backer' of FTX was given billions of FTT tokens that they 'owned' by FTX because they participated in its 'ICO', transferred it FTX, and then used it as collateral to 'borrow' FTX user assets, hoping they could gamble with it and make back their money.

CZ, of Binance, got wind of this somehow, and holding billions of FTT on Binance, decided to tank the price by saying it will all be sold immediately

-SBF gets caught with his pants down
One way to get a verifiable time stamp would be to show knowledge of an unpredictable but well-known thing in the past (providing a lower bound), then to create the same thing yourself (providing an upper bound). I wrote about it here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33558566.

Your comment in particular made me feel like it was worth posting!
You do. How would you otherwise demonize a Country that reached peak industrialization in a couple decades starting from a rural, semi-feudal society?

- That established the 8 hour work day in 1917,

- legalized abortion in 1920,

- erradicated illiteracy and achieved a literacy rate of 75% starting from 25%,

- Was the first country to build satellites and men to space?

- Provided a decent standard of living to all their citizens while also suffering inmense pression from the First World?

You really have to grasp straws to criticize a country that made such enormous progress in such short time and that improved the lives of millions while also being attacked from left and right.
> As the author showed the volume of business and revenue in Germany is tiny, there may be not worth the effort for Shopify to do it. It may be the correct business decision.

The issue is with European regulations. The lawsuit was in Germany because that’s how legal systems work around here, but the sticking points are very likely to be present in national laws across the EU. So, ultimately it won’t be about the German market, but about the EU.
> I don’t think you’re right about that? What I got from the article is that customer data is processed and stored in the EU, it doesn’t go through America. However, static assets are downloaded from CDNs operated by American companies (CloudFlare/Amazon/Fastly).

From what I can tell, Shopify itself uses Cloudflare, so your domain that is connected to Shopify is passing all the traffic through Cloudflare, e.g. one of the other examples in the screenshot: https://www.distortedpeople.com/

The site is on CF (and it sets like 10 cookies, including tracking cookies, pre consent, so any dreams of compliance are gone either way), and, as far as I can tell, that's the case with all Shopify shops (but I've only ever looked into that from an outsider's perspective, maybe that's optional).
Corporations are increasingly multinational, and the stated 'national affiliation' is really just 'flag-of-convenience' (a notion that probably arose in the global marine shipping industry, but which has spread everywhere). Look at the number of businesses incorporated in Delaware or other states that provide additional layers of legal shields as another example.

As far as this, it's probably related to this story from one month ago (Oct 7 2022):

https://www.reuters.com/business/retail-consumer/eu-says-sho...

> "Shopify committed to change the design of its templates to include fields for company information and contact details, to provide clear guidance to traders on relevant EU consumer law and to provide company details about any EU trader when requested by any national consumer authority. The company also agreed to take down web shops in breach of EU consumer law, as well as to provide the relevant company details."
She’s not wrong, stop losses are pretty pointless if you’re running a high volume market maker that is in theory constantly doing tons of volume and reacting to updates.

They’re also super dangerous if you have gigantic positions

Anyways they wouldn’t save you from collateralizing your loans with shitcoins, taking leveraged bets with money that isn’t yours, having super high exposure to UST and/or Luna, exposed to hackable defi products. Harder things that “having a good sense for risk” usually entails thinking about.

The real red flags are claiming she doesn’t use math and that she’s never lost a lot of money on a trade despite doing largely human informed trading for size…
I'm not sure how to answer your question as it seems to me it makes no sense in the context of the conversation we're having.

Issue: music video are mixed with normal video on the high traffic site

Solution: separate them on a separate site (which is essentially what your subdomain idea is)

Issue with the solution: music video channels don't want that, because they want to be on the high traffic site, and they've already seen with live streaming that no people don't go out of their way to find them back once they're removed from the high traffic parts

So, "which pages", well the high traffic youtube page, which they wouldn't be on if they're relegated to music.youtube.com only.
