So places like Arizona, maybe SoCal, they'd have trouble in the summer. Places in the north that always get well below 80F would be okay for a good long time.

Do you completely refuse to accept that there is such a phenomenon as mental illness? If you are of a sound mind and want to starve to death - have it your way. If you are a schizophrenic lying face down on the street - there is something we can do to help you. It's possible with the help of modern medicine to give you a decent life, restore your function.

What is this theoretical individual losing if we help them? What is the society losing if we act to help?
I think it's a cool idea, but couldn't begin to guesstimate what the underlying IP might be worth if anything. It may already be pretty well covered by other patent claims, for that matter.

I do think it's cool enough to be worth spending a few $K to consult with an attorney, though, especially since you've taken it this far. Mistakes made early in the process of commercializing something can have disproportionate effects later on.

If it does turn out to be patentable, you have up to 1 year to file after first public disclosure (IIRC), and that clock is now ticking, for better or worse.

>I like what Costco is doing, instead of just recycling the boxes, they are left for people to carry their purchases.

This is really interesting. Growing up in Southern California, I remember always getting free boxes from Costco like this.

But for the past 15 years I've lived in the Bay Area, I can't say I've ever seen boxes readily offered- even to other people in the store. Maybe these locations are just so busy they run out quickly.
"there are objectively no advantages to having your privacy taken away..."

Your words, correct?

My claim is that whenever you do something of high consequence, it is safer for you and the society to have your privacy taken away. (or the link between whatever you do and your name be public knowledge)

*The vaccine produced by an anonymous scientist*

*The car crashtest and certification site operated by an anonymous owner*

*The airplane designed by an anonymous engineer*

Talking about airplanes. An air traffic controller in Switzerland is a largely anonymous job. But after causing an aviation accident (a rather high-consequence deed) it would have been safer for the controller, if he and the police assumed that the air traffic controller's name and location were public knowledge:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitaly_Kaloyev

The information that John Doe operates XYZ Pty Ltd does not affect their privacy too much, but if either John Doe or XYZ do or even consider doing something of high consequence, they better know that the link is public.

there are objectively no advantages to having the link between your name and your high-impact activity be hidden.

Agreed. The second chapter of Programming Ruby, "Classes, Objects, and Variables", shows you how to manually implement 'attributes' before introducing you to the attr_* methods. This is fundamental stuff.
Yeah. Maryland and Virginia are never at the top of these lists, even though though their economies are totally built around adjacency to the federal government.

These methodologies always seem to count a retiree drawing social security in Florida as federal dependency, but don’t count the northern Virginia employees of a DC lobbying firm as federal dependency.
> In terms of making a game with them, I think a design where the pins are on the face of the card may be useful. I want to be able to 'draw' a card without knowing what is on it.

That would work. But you can also make that work with current hardware (I think): you just need a delay between pressing the button and the screen changing? So that the player can press the button, pick up the card, and five seconds later, it's revealed.

After being laid off from my previous employer of 7 years, I found a company to join in my domain that has weathered the storm for many decades and is well-established in the industry I’m in AND also has income via federal contracts from another department at the company. The company is still privately owned by the original owners, and it seems to be a sustainable company that will weather the coming economic storm. I’m really happy to have joined when I have, I think this is a company to spend some good years at, and there’s a number of employees that have been with the company for over a decade. Things are looking stable, and I suppose for now I am a lifer.
Show HN: I built an imperfect copy of CSS Scan
While I was learning CSS, I always felt the urge to inspect and edit the styles of the elements right there in the browser. Opening developer tools seemed frustrating.

I looked for tools to do that. I found CSS Scan but it was way expensive.

Finally, I built a tool on my own for my use. It is not perfect. But now I can inspect and copy the styles of the elements as well as edit them right there in the browser.

I will continue adding updates to it as I learn more about CSS and programming as a whole. But it is my first ever project and I am quite happy to share it.

https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/23451/space-dealer also has some interesting mechanic idea (with the timers) that you could steal for something with your setup. Assuming the cards or at least base station themselves have enough logic for a timer.

I know when we were RMAing drives as a company there was an $8 option to not return the drive. As it was free shipping to return it we’d just send it back - no sensitive data.

Even if all of this stuff was perfectly secure end to end all someone would need to do would be to pick some arbitrary TV or monitor model and make publically available board schematics for something that hooked up after whatever point the TV hardware finally decrypts the video stream to send to the screen.

Sure you have to play each movie in full in real time (although maybe you could get around this by spoofing the clock on the playing device somehow?), but you still only need a few people setting up a little movie ripping farm to get retail quality lossless video of everything regardless of how much money anyone puts into DRM nonsense.

The analogue hole makes all of this effort entirely pointless. All reasonably popular non interactive media is going to be available on pirate sites within hours of release no matter what you do, all this does is make life harder for legitimate consumers.
You haven't heard of Buzzfeed Japan? You're welcome to try to find the law though.

If it was geofenced you could disable it by putting it in airplane mode, so it's by purchase country instead. (On recent phones it does turn off if you leave Japan though.)
GitHub Pages have the unfortunate anti-feature of being impossible for normal people.
Compile metaprogramming can have compile-time debuggers. If it uses the same language for meta and regular, it should be the same debugger, ideally.

The IDEs haven't quite embraced this concept properly yet, though: they usually have distinct "editing", and "running" states, but what's really needed is "editing", "building", and "running", with debugging available in the latter two.
How doable would it be for devs to integrate local translations in their websites and webapps? Do you think we'd ever get to a point where we can include a single <script> tag and have access to this stuff?

Great work, this is awesome. I’d love to connect and hear about your journey. I’ve always wanted to make a board game.
I'd like to know too. Full disclosure, I live in IA (DSM). I've seen my neighborhood go up 30-40%. Houses that were ~180k are now pushing 300k.

Now, I think the market will normalize a bit but still. There is no such thing as a starter house unless you're willing to give up a good education for your kids, live in bumfuck nowhere (and that's coming from someone who lives in Des Moines, IA-- which many people would consider nowhere).

Move rural? Good luck. Small towns are drying up for any/all services. Amazon and co are pushing out anything local for shopping. Cost of living for stuff not related to housing is just as high or HIGHER due to lack of infrastructure, plus the lack of meaningful choices (small town stores have higher prices due to lack of purchasing power and limited suppliers).

I'm not saying it's impossible, live off the grid and have your own farm. But doing that with a family, while working 60+ hours a week just to pay your rent, unless you're an SWE. The crunch is REAL for most people.
On most machines this days there is not really a performance difference between the math done on signed or unsigned integers. The only case would be if your wanting to the compiler to optimize on the fact that UB does exist. So like this in example "impossible things" get optimized out. The author here clearly does not want that.
Bit strange to put "affordability" and "$1M" in the same breath from a real estate agent, but here we are.

> five figures buys a home, or less than $10k down and $1k/month

I'm not sure why someone would assert this unrealistic calculation, except one might graciously interpret it to be describing multiple situations...despite that being completely useless information.

When interest rates were bottomed out, this statement in total wasn't true (at least the $1k/mo part for a 500k loan). I happened to end up in a home that was $490 with 7k down and 2.5% and the payment is naturally above $2k/mo. Finding this situation today is impossible, ofc.
> I can assure you, you have no idea what you’re talking about. Like demonstrably, not a single valid argument. Like actively promoting misinformation no argument.

Would you perhaps care to substantiate any of that, or just stick with the personal attacks?
Please open a github issue and let them know.
I think this is kind of unimportant, if you want to improve your experience developing frontends, establish a design system in close collaboration with the designers (use something like atomic design for example) and build abstractions that implement the design system around a component-based architecture. I feel like that's much more important to think about than whatever particular CSS framework you use. Also think about how you are going to optimize for LCP/FID/CLS (core web vitals), its gonna be hard optimizing that later.
Thanks, I've got a patent attorney in the family; I'll see if I can get a discount ;)

Does this explain the fact that this pattern didn’t show up in the not-for-profit schools until much later?

I’m not against the idea that govt subsidies raise prices, but it seems like cherry picking to fit a shaky model.[1] If it’s a primary factor, wouldn’t we see that across all schools? Perhaps there’s a different, more foundational cause and we’re being fooled by spurious correlation. If it isn’t applicable elsewhere I fail to see how it can be labeled a root cause.

[1]For example, UofPhoenix was not founded until the late 1970s. This also corresponds to a handful of other societal factors can can be argued contributed to educational costs. If the GI Bill was primarily driving these costs, we should see it in the way the benefits were implemented. Like a high spike post WW2, to waning post Vietnam, to slightly higher with the Montgomery GI bill, to another spike with the post 9/11 GI Bill. But college tuition costs seem to be a fairly steady march higher, including not-for-profit non-vocational schools.

Fire Them All; God Will Know His Own
Isn't allowing LLCs to own single-family homes a big part of the problem? I have no problems with an LLC or other Corp owning apartment complexes, and I probably don't really have a problem with there being some sort of government subsidies for that - we need them, so they should probably be incentivized.

There's zero reason for an LLC for own a SFH other than as some sort of tax scheme like you mention. Require that any mortgage on a SFH or owner-occupied multiplex be held by an individual. If you want an LLC to own a SFH/OOM, buy it in cash.

This is really cool. One thing I'll add is to make an easy fallback for people to type in the password (for example, if they can't scan the QR code or plug in), you could generate a word phrase, like "correct battery horse staple" which would be the same value as the QR code and have the same entropy as a really strong and long password.

You could then display this phrase below the QR code. No special characters to type! And easy enough to read or yell out across the room.

I wouldn't even need a timer, I could detect when a card is placed back onto that spot.

Ask HN: How do you overcome feeling completely lost in life?
I feel a bit ambivalent posting this on HN. On one hand, I keep coming back here because it's one of the only places on the internet that I trust and that makes sense to me. On the other hand, most people on here seem to have their sh* together, so to speak, and in that respect I feel like an outsider. Admittedly, these days I come to HN more for self-help than tech news. Reading through the recent threads on loneliness have given me some courage to reach out and be vulnerable, so here goes.

I'm a software developer quickly approaching 30 with no direction in life, no hobbies, no friends, no family, and no idea what I even want to change. I've somehow floated through 30 years of life like this. I've had a few highs and a few more lows, but what's been constant is just this deep sense of emptiness. Like a longing for something I don't have and maybe never will. With every passing year, I've grown more and more weary of life.

In my early twenties, I would self-medicate with various addictions, but for the past few years not even those purely hedonistic activities seem appealing to me. These days I work remotely Monday-Friday, eat, sleep, repeat. Some weekends I even look forward to Mondays, just so I have something to do. But every night, the emptiness of this endless cycle hits me and it feels so paradoxically heavy, like an insurmountable gravitational pull into the void. Though I have no close friends or family, most days I don't even feel lonely -- just hopelessly lost.

The advice I've read concerning this sort of disillusionment boils down to making friends/establishing a sense of connection to the world, and having a sense of personal direction. Doesn't seem to matter whether you start top-down or bottom-up, eventually you're supposed to end up somewhere in the middle as a fulfilled, self-actualized human being. But no matter which end I try to start from, I can't seem to escape the sheer meaninglessness of it all. Making friends/maintaining close relationships doesn't come naturally to me, and the more effort I put into it, the more detached and dishonest I feel. This also seems to be getting harder as I get older, without school or some other form of "forced" interaction. Setting personal goals is even more hopeless when at the core, I just feel empty. Every time I try to set even small goals for myself (starting personal projects, hobbies, etc.), gravity pulls me back into the void. Any sort of direction or intention feels like trying to build a house of cards on a non-existent foundation.

At this point, I'm not sure if I can do this for another 30 years. I feel like Sisyphus pushing the boulder up the hill in an eternal loop, leaving me with a worsening sense of existential--sometimes literal--nausea.

Thank you for reading. I hope someone can relate to this and impart some wisdom. I've also included an email in my profile because at times I will read a comment or post on here that resonates with me, and I'm disappointed to have no way to reach out directly to the OP. So if that applies to anyone, please don't hesitate to reach out to me.
> when the copyrighted digital work is not made artificially scarce, it is worthless.

If an artist digitally releases a music album for free - it's worthless? Meaning it has no value? Let's break this down. If I construct a physical object and sell it - it has worth because you can hold it in your hands. If I record an album and release it digitally - it's worthless, despite costing me 100x more than the physical object I created. And despite you appreciating the music 100x more than my physical object. So what defines value? Then physical aspect only? I guess that's a theory, doesn't help to navigate the world increasingly dominated by intangible things, but okay.

> Decentralized ones, by contrast, can be a mess but they democratize innovation

well that's an interesting take. granting that the fediverse is decentralized, is it democratic?

my instinct would be to say "no: i don't need to hold a referendum and get a majority vote in favor before bridging my site to the network: i just do it and each other site either federates with me or doesn't." that sounds more anarchic than democratic.

on the other hand, the vast majority of the network has all settled on ActivityPub as a protocol. one could say that users and developers "voted with their feet (or their actions)", coalescing around that protocol and now it's effectively legislated (in the sense that a democracy would legislate English to be the official language, or for Pacific Time to be the regional timezone).

but AP could still be displaced/improved without any appeal to authority. Misskey added all sorts of wacky protocol extensions and it didn't need to ask permission from anyone else on the network: whatever useful features it adds sort of disperse outward. i wouldn't describe that as "democratic". if someone really wanted to use a political metaphor, i guess you could say that decentralized networks federalize innovation? still feels like the wrong class of metaphor though.
