If one's sole driving concern is making money, a whole lot of evil becomes possible. The other side of profit is power - those with more capital become more powerful. That's the reason Microsoft made this decision. They don't want the average person being able to easily make a local account, they'd much rather force everyone to register an account with them in order to even use their computer. It's just one further notch down the slippery slope of the end of private ownership and personal rights. A small notch, certainly. But it's a small notch in their overall endgame of putting general-purpose computing "back in the bottle" so to speak.

Certain powers in this world want there to be less regulation for the moneymakers in this world. Centralized wealth has been a cancer on humanity for millennia, and we're nowhere near putting the proper amount of shackles on capitalism.
Leap seconds are determined manually, though, so it seems like there's no practical difference other than UTC's error from solar time going out of spec?
I agree. I'm also not satisfied with the quality in this domain.

Here is why I think it is the way it is:

- The contours of this domain are very fuzzy: What are we talking about here? the fact that words like (P)KM and productivity were hijacked by corporate motives for most of their history does not help.

- The "emptiness" comes from "influencers" trying the cater to our incessant pursuit, as a society, of the new and shiny. Social media FOMO makes this worse.
But The shallowness you are talking about have absolutely nothing to do with this domain in particular. It is endemic to our current world.

And fuzziness does not help. I appreciate the effort and enthusiasm, but we need to anchor/connect it to more established communities.

Is it about Business management / The future of work? Personal Thinking and Problem Solving? Personal Development? Personal Journaling? The future of journalism? Text Editors UX? Information & Learning Design? L&D (Learning and Development) ? Higher Education Note-taking? Digital research? Software studies? Digital Humanities?

These are all related real domains (google them)

They did take off. Everyone in here uses them. People all over are using transcription (speech to text) to dictate instead of typing on the terribly small mobile phone keyboards.

The issue apparently is no one knows how to make money
Alexa is an important tool for our family. My hope is amazon doesn't abandon Alex, but limit what it does and charge a subscription. We use it for alarms, timers, drop ins (inside home and outside), announcements, weather, news, music on Amazon prime and making calls. Simple things that don't require add on skills or advanced commands. Works solid for our needs and it would be difficult to replace. We never buy anything using voice commands.

The problem is a family like us. We haven't bought a new device in 2 years and still use some of the original pucks. Amazon will need to make money somehow so I think a yearly subscription would work. Then again, if it isn't a growth segment I cannot see a tech company keeping something in today's world.
Regardless of his personal reasons, he lost credibility.

If he had done the same to make sure Clinton won he would have lost credibility as a trustworthy source too.

You can in fact lie with facts, especially without context. You can arrange and frame them so as to paint a biased or outright false picture.

If the GRU manipulated him that just shows as well how foolish it is to think amateurs can play spy games with the pros. It’s like having your local street ball league go up against a pro basketball team.

Ah yes, scientists saying "trust us, it won't harm the body" for the 1000th time, and then after a decade and two they will be proven wrong again.

Carnivore diet will get you into ketosis.
I believe this is the sole reason why it alleviates health issues.

Furthermore, you don't need to be a carnivore to achieve ketosis.

You have more options:

- water fasting (limited amount of studies; but humans in the ancient past did practice water-only fasting)
- another form: Buchinger fast, where you limit your calorie intake to 500 kcal. You can drink juices such as coconut water. There is a clinic in Germany where people pay to fast.
I think this is a littlle easier for people to get in. Helps you keep your electrolytes up (salt, Mg, K, Ca).

However, I am not sure if fasting alone will help you with a mental condition.
It helps your body and brain though, but how much it will alleviate your mental issues is an open question.

I am also unsure if carnivore diet will be good overall for your body. Again, it is a way to get into ketosis, but there are more ways...
I would argue more for less carbohydrates and more protein (tyrosine, tryptophane), if on a mental condition. Don't forget choline (acetylcholine).

The very fact that the mails were kept on a private server in a basement installed, breaking compliance, is very valuable information to me regarding the ability of HC to be a good US president.

In the same way as Ursula von der Leyen wiped her Blackberry, which the result that legal evidence was destroyed that had been requested, to give a second example.

Or Sarah Palin, who used her Yahoo! email account for (some) business, to give a third example.

Even if most emails in all of these cases are harmless, the fact that people work around transparency rules itself is telling.
Several years ago the New York Times had a really cool visualization of Hurricane Harvey’s weather pattern; turns out the author published a guide of how they did it:

You mean just like how you go back 1.5 decades and Putin was a pro-West liberal? Just like like how Biden with his almost 80% Obama cabinet navigated the Ukraine-Russia thing so nicely. Biden and Burns both called Ukraine the brightest of all red lines for Russia[1]. I'd like to post the wikileaks link for Burns' comment, but it's sadly gone.

Yes presidents are supposed to navigate these situations. But none of the past couple of administrations have. To try to pin it all on Trump is a cop-out.

If the workers lack the work ethic, you let go of them. Either that their output is valuable enough that work ethic (aka being present 9-5) does not matter that much, or they just don't care about the job to actually do it. I've been under that kind of supervision (not so extreme) and the only result was feeling dread about actually working.
And when he censored Russian whistleblowers that gave him documents on Putin’s involvement in Syria?

I wonder if his television deal with Putin compromised his “radical transparency”.
Why not Gopher?
This comment seems to fundamentally misunderstand the dynamic that they're saying should just fall away.
It's already been pointed out to you that when people say "Ministry of Truth", they're referring to the defunct "Disinformation Governance Board" created within the DHS. You chose to ignore that.
I'm not sure pointing to Google is "correcting him". But yeah, a good guide on how to use IPFS as an hidden service would be pretty useful.

Probably Putin - you know, the guy that pays him to not leak Russian documents.
Death to email! Stop using email entirely unless users opt-in. Give users the option of FIDO or passwordless auth apps with a reset code or oauth federation with a third party.
But you can’t really “steal” something digital, when they can be freely multiplied any number of times without degrading.

If you go to a supermarket and steal a TV that’s stealing. You taking a picture of it isn’t.
The problem with that is when the fan would block the natural venting if it stops working. These devices are engineered to have the heat move the air through and out of the device, and though a fan will usually do a better job of that, it will ultimately fail. When it does, if the fan body is in the way then the intended convection is blocked and the entire unit shuts down or is damaged.

Show HN: Unclutter – Reader mode, but better
Hey everyone!

In the last months I've been working on Unclutter, a modern reader mode browser extension. In contrast to all existing approaches, it unclutters articles by modifying their CSS instead of extracting the text content.

This results in a more visually pleasing result that reuses the original article style. The idea is to remove friction so you use the reader mode more often.
There are a few more features around saving articles automatically and taking highlights -- more details are on the website.

The extension has about 400 active weekly users right now, mostly from organic web store traffic. Monetisation has proven to be hard and for freemium there would need to be much higher numbers anyways.
Do you think I should keep working on the project?
Your fingertips while typing are even closer to the Tab and Enter keys on your keyboard, which, if pressed in sequence, have the exact same effect. Much simpler and much faster than either of your options.
Even C++ does not need ‘class,’ as it already has ‘struct’ that it inherited from C. (A saner language would just use the word ‘type.’)

Wut???
More originally, and with more context (as the ways and reasons in which information "wants" each of these things matters).

> On the one hand you have — the point you’re making Woz — is that information sort of wants to be expensive because it is so valuable — the right information in the right place just changes your life. On the other hand, information almost wants to be free because the costs of getting it out is getting lower and lower all of the time. So you have these two things fighting against each other.
first of all in an American context the cleaning floors example would probably be laughed out of court as in no way being understood as Public safety, which would probably go with something like this https://www.austintexas.gov/blog/what-public-safety

>Legal scholars define public safety as “the protection of the general public,” and they reference groups like police officers and firefighters as Public Safety Officers. Many governments form their policies on this idea of protecting people’s physical welfare. They often focus on combating crime in an effort to help community members feel secure, and they hire for roles like law enforcement officers and medical emergency responders.

however I am getting the feeling you have never actually been involved in the writing of a law before

Defining public safety occupations would be pretty easy, although a lot of lawmakers in order to cut down on the misunderstandings might just go ahead and write a list of occupations that count as public safety if they did not want to let the courts decide. In a Napoleonic system I might expect the defining of public safety and it's meanings to take up a page or two of work, depending on how the makers wanted to define it (list of occupations affected, defining characteristics of occupations that would be affected)
Darkreader extension works on it.
Oddly enough, in the iPadOS 15.7.1 at least if I say "Hey siri, set a timer for 20 minutes" it will say "20 minutes, starting now". Then if I say "Hey siri, set a timer for 5 minutes" it says "there's already a 20 minute timer. Replace it?"

If I say "set a timer for 20 minutes called A" it just ignores the "called A" part.

Ok, here we have an AI that actively tries to deceive humans in order to further its own goals.

It's pretty good at it too.

Wait, graph-tool is finally on Python 3? I loved graph-tool. Even did a conference talk on it once. But for years it was Python 2.7 only, so much that I finally gave up on ever using it again.

For me, NetworkX is good for exploration, but shouldn't be used for anything serious in production. Once you sorta figure out what you want to do there are so many other things you should use before NetworkX that may take longer to get the data in, and may be more annoying to query, but are ultimately more suited to the task.

It's hard to even compare these different tools directly because they solve different problems. For example, if data integrity was paramount I'd just use Postgres and recursive querying / intelligent partitioning. If speed were important, Memgraph or sparse matrices in Numpy. If the data were large documents with tag like relationships, some sort of document store (used Riak last time around, but that was over ten years ago).

From what I know about CLOS, it's a great tool if you have a tight-knit team of seasoned devs, but it's a giant sack of footguns otherwise. You can redefine so much about the object system that your codebase will instantly become unmaintainable.

Who wants to deal with that? In the best case they confiscate all tech stuff from my home (including my employer’s laptop).
"but the facts are the facts"

Leaks on internet are information that you probably cannot verify by yourself. So you cannot clarify it as observable fact.

"you can't believe something you know to be false"

Yet, a lot of people believe in things that cannot be proved as fact. And I'm not talking about religious things. Just random information in news, internet, etc. For example there are a quite a lot people who believe in in flat earth, third gender, global warming, alliens or immunity from vaccines, even though they cannot prove it (and I'm not saying it if that is right or not).
> rather than having to create interfaces

I don’t know about that. To me, interfaces is the best thing since sliced bread, “OOP” or not. In particular, they bring some sanity to the design in the modern C++, where you would use templates in the lower level parts of the application, for performance, and interfaces at the higher level, for sanity.

Some systems have tried that approach, yes!

In Freenet you contribute to a global pool of storage, and end up storing and transmitting whatever the network happens to need. Freenet is intentionally obscure about it. The archive is encrypted, there are no logs, there's no way to list what your node contains, and storage is probabilistic making it hard to determine if something is there because you asked for it, or it passed through your node.

Tor also tries something similar, and has premade explanations to give to authorities if they ask about your exit node.

But those are specifically built to try to work with that case. Stuff happens behind your back that you have zero involvement in besides providing a piece of infrastructure for the network.

In IPFS on the other hand you make a personal, intentional choice to mirror or upload something.

This is because the federal government had the foresight to make a law that 1. Limits maximum damages to something like 5,000$ so that it isn’t worth the copyright mafia’s time to pursue, 2. ISP get complaints from copyright mafia and forwards it to the user but the ISP isn’t allowed to share the user details with the copyright mafia.

That’s why these emails always try and entice you to click a link and settle the crime for a few hundred dollars. They can’t do anything else as they don’t even know who you are but a few chumps will click and pay so it’s free money in a way.

Anyway, great piece of law and I’m glad lobbies didn’t get their way with that in Canada.
When selling it only needs to seem more desirable. The quality of the demo is most important.

The actual quality only has to be good enough for demonstrators to keep using and demoing in an overall positive light. i.e. current users are 2nd class citizens to potential future users.

An example of this is the System Preferences change in macOS Ventura. I used to be able to see all choices in a small window, but now it looks like iPhone settings long scroll.

As I said, Trump was one of the factors how he navigates. Obviously, if the coup hand't happen or a meteor struck Istanbul we would have completely different political landscape. Trump was a very influential enabler for Erdogan and that's why all the pro-Erdogan media covered the US elections as if they are Turkish elections.

Those usages are correct. "Democratize" is a word with more than one meaning, the one being used there is:

For Flexbox https://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/a-guide-to-flexbox/ is the resource I would recommend, along with https://flexboxfroggy.com/ for a more interactive tutorial.

For CSS Grid, the equivalent resources would be https://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/complete-guide-grid/ and https://cssgridgarden.com/

These are all tutorial-level documentation. Once you've gone through those you can complement them with the MDN documentation on the individual properties as a reference.

Unfortunately many plastics, and the most common types of solder, start softening before you get to 180C. You can get smoke extraction fans and chimney flue fans that will tolerate higher temperatures, but they're generally an all-metal affair costing more than $33.

Assuming the 180C is at your system's ventilation output, could you move your fan to the air inlet so it only has do deal with ambient temperature air? That's what's done for blacksmith's forges etc

I think Java really dropped the ball on UIs (and other paradigms where you need to pass data across threads) and this is partly because of the terrible threading hoops that need to be jumped for lack of async/await. Kotlin gained traction exactly because Java didn't solve this.

I think it's pretty depressing to hear that you're numb to this.

TBH, I don't think virtual threads even address this use case in a way that isn't just async/await but less sugared syntax. (Although I'm willing to be pleasantly surprised once new libraries pop up)
Most people think Assange was turned by Russian state intelligence after 2013/2014. The "reporting" on Russia vanished after.
Some of the squares are basically a solid color (not so much the cat picture but the previous ones I checked). I like to do jigsaw puzzles and one good thing about them is even in fairly solid color areas, you get a good confirmation by pieces fitting together well. Something to think about when selecting photos.
My perspective: go with what the person who created it agreed to. They’ve set their life up around certain assumptions, and if I don’t like them I will forgo their work.

For example, that person whose works are in the gallery has built their business on a balance of exposure - letting anyone who walks in look at things - and the fact that people who buy art are willing to pay a fair amount to own a physical object for display. Looking without buying is expressly part of their business model.

Book publishing is different, with the author assuming they’ll get payments from readers - much smaller than that artists but many of them. Since I don’t have any ownership rights over their work, I don’t attempt to change the terms.
isnt this just a small journal entry saying, "i started to learn clos and i think i like it". i dont see any siginificant information about why clos is great here. doing general oop in lisp is powerful from the get-go because you can update classes and instances interactively. you will use clos for this basic functionality. however clos also allows you to extend the oop ideas in directions that are just not available in other languages
