> Roth suggested that Grindr allow minors and be made age appropriate, without giving any details of how that would work.

Sure, he didn’t give any details of how it would work, but it’s not that hard to imagine what kind of changes you’d make (e.g. automatic blocking of explicit images, stricter moderation of language on profiles…). This was just one paragraph of a thesis, so I’m not sure what your point is re the lack of details.

> apps like Grindr and Tinder are optimised for meeting people nearby for hookups and dating.

Yes! That was exactly my point. Gay teens want to date just like straight teens do, but it’s less easy for them to find suitable people on regular social networks.

>You can find what you want via search [on Snap]

What makes you so sure? I assume you don’t spend your free time searching for gay teenagers in your neighborhood on Snapchat, so what is your basis for this assertion?

> What is the likelihood of finding an adult gay man looking for a hookup on Twitter vs Grindr?

I don’t know about twitter, but it’s certainly pretty high on Snapchat or Insta. A restricted version of Grindr could potentially impose much stricter limits on under 18s interacting with adults than any of the major social networks do.

Windows 7 plus an evolution Android like, where COM's role get downplayed and we get .NET bindings for all major workflow, with the same performance focus of .NET Core progress would have been great.

UWP was great from the point of view that .NET Native is what .NET 1.0 should have been, and C++/CX was the very first time Microsoft had anything similar to C++ Builder.

However it was horrible managed, and asking everyone to keep rewriting their code isn't something that makes Windows dev community jump of joy.

Now WinUI is too late for the party, too buggy, too many features lacking.

CentOS still exists, and is now owned by Red Hat. Originally, CentOS was meant to be the community ("free") version of RHEL, yet after Red Hat took it over it has since become a mid-point in the stream.

Before it was Fedora -> Red Hat

What bothers me most about the FBI's behaviour here is that it is unnecessary. Do we really want the FBI manning a task force of 80+(according to Taibbi) agents to monitor social media threads, and if so, what's to stop that number from just growing and growing?

I'd prefer to see the FBI acting in a passive role, here, rather than a proactive one. Meaning, they act more in response to people reporting social media behavior, instead of creating their own missions, so to speak.

One of the problems with this sort of governmental creep, is once it happens it's nearly impossible to take it back - look at the Patriot act/Homeland security, for example, or the god-awful and useless TSA. It's very easy to imagine this social media task force growing into another branch, and, as with all of these agencies, the Big Brother potential is a scary one.

The digital medium often strips human expression when capturing input.

Devices such as the Apple Pencil are getting better at capturing pressure and highly-detailed paths, which inturn are encoded as vectors and can gather information that is lost in physical mediums, such as coordinates, drawing order, and temporality, even capturing things not present on paper such as hover gestures and pressure.

Yet it's common practice to reduce gestures and clicks to points, lines, or curves - two clicks from thousands of users in a CAD environment may output the exact same line from point A to point B - which often forget about the expressiveness of pencil strokes on a sheet of paper, features which could be used by machine learning algorithms to discern intent in the input of different users.
Isn't that the least efficient idea? You get minimal solar energy during that time of the year in most places and it eliminates the ability use a cover crop.
I'm not entirely sure if what's being said is true but I believe the intention is to stay:

All LCDs "flicker" in the same way all movies "flicker". The technology simply displays or flashes a series of still images quick enough to be perceived as fluid motion or video.
What happened with this trial of “How to talk so kids will listen”
Yes, that’s what I heard, too. I’d probably give it a try, though, as I know similar structures from my work in FinTech, where we integrated with quite „conservative“ banks as well.
I kind of have a knack with finding the right knob on such people to get to the desired goal.
The TI AM335x is a good example of that. An ARM core with 2 "PRU" microcontrollers, and they share access to the memory. The BeagleBone Black uses the AM335x, and there's various projects that make use of the PRUs. A list of some of them: https://beagleboard.org/static/prucookbook/

Our children do.

Son designed a seal to stamp on paper this week. Learned that it reverses the image, and that ink dries out.
I don’t have any specific information on the current situation, and regarding future developments, well my crystal ball is currently in service — but regarding the situation up until at least recently, I will go on record any time: I have lived the past 44 years in the context of the German health care system, and it was basically perfect, period.

Compared to the US (hearsay), and the Eastern European systems (first hand knowledge through the wife), I‘ll take the Western European system any day.
Given the choice of being put through a grinder or asphyxiating in CO2 or N2 I would definitely take that gas. The gas is painless and you don't even realise that it's happening.

Haha, yes, we are not that far gone..
I'm gonna guess that a few people like Peter taking alphacodes output and editing it and using those edits as part of some fine-tuning step would quickly resolve many of these issues.
I'm not sure that's the intention, because they said that "e-ink doesn't flicker". But e-ink certainly has a refresh rate. So I think they attribute some other form of flickering to LCD.

(And in fact, some of the e-ink readers with optional display lighting will use PWM to modulate its brightness, and then exhibit flicker. This is a super dumb engineering choice, though, so it's not very common. The Kobo Forma was an offender.)
All internet companies at this point are doing "mass warrantless surveillance" at this point then. Google makes money off matching people to advertisers by learning what they search, post, and how they use their computers.

That's what it looks like from the outside, but the reality is that he works alongside people at the same level as him as far as the company is concerned. His experience is incredible but its likely that the people he works with are also deeply experienced engineering managers too. He's just more famous.
The same thing is happening to NZ healthcare, i personally welcome means testing for elective surgeries. A lot of boomers needing healthcare here are sitting on significant gains from holding property, a boomer was recently complaining to me about his hip op being delayed twice through public, he owns a big $1m house, $2m in rentals and has $500k in a savings account, he could easily get it done this week with his own money.
Maybe not - perhaps they're doing the same thing!

Myself, I also use favorites as bookmarks on HN. And stars as bookmarks on GitHub (hence I'm always perplexed why people care about star count - for me, "starring" a repo doesn't mean I use it, or even like it; it just means I want to look at it again, somewhen, for some reason).
This seems almost revolutionary coming from The Economist. It’s not quite “degrowth” but a discussion around similar political forces.

“ Why has the West turned away from growth? One possible answer relates to ageing populations. People who are not working, or are near the end of their working lives, tend to be less interested in getting richer. They will support things which directly benefit them, such as health-care spending, but oppose those that produce benefits only after they have gone, such as immigration or house-building. Their turnout at elections tends to be high, so their views carry weight.”

At the same time, there clearly are populations out there still growing or otherwise not plateaued in development. Thinking of central and South America and Africa.
Are these really worth it? I'm interested in the concept but worry it's not as practical as it looks.

> E-ink has the advantage that it automatically shows the correct brightness

It doesn't because e-ink is a non-light-emitting technology so has no concept of brightness. Ambient light is what lights it up usually (unless one turns an entirely optional backlight on to read in the dark). So you don't need to adjusts as there's nothing to adjust, it's literally ambient light bouncing back, so is the same brightness by virtue of being the same light source.

Conversely, typical displays (TN, IPS, OLED, CRT even...) being a light emitting technology, one needs to turn backlight up as ambient light increases as both compete. (That is, unless it's a transflective LCD, but even then it's quite dim in ambient light).

> there's nothing inherently less tiring about it

e-ink really is more like paper, while typical displays are like turning a flashlight straight towards your eyes.
Just as a semi-random example, NXP has the i.MX series[1] with one or more application-level cores alongside a microprocessor-level core. You can get something like the i.MX 8M Nano[2] with 4x Cortex-A53 and a single Cortex-M7.

Another "big-player" option is ST which has the STM32MP1[3], which features a single Cortex-A7 alongside a Cortex-M4.

GNOME and GTK look spectacular these days. Even when I'm using macOS I now find myself thinking that GNOME looks better. The design is very uniform and coherent, and overall simply beautiful to my eye.

You're saying that if you're in a high enough tax bracket then you should pay the most to support everyone else's healthcare but have no right to access it yourself.
None of this makes sense.

Venous delivered adrenaline is used to close down peripheral circulation during cardiac arrest to encourage the poor flow to perfuse the heart, lungs and brain. Maintaining tissue viability until recovery.

Intramuscular adrenaline is used in anaphylaxis.

Either makes sense in the context you describe. I must be missing something.

Are you misremembering stuff?
I've tried ChatGPT on cases taken from the European Qualifying Examination for patent attorneys to see if ChatGPT can correctly identify how prior art document combine to attack a granted patent. (I used Paper C for this).

While it spouts lots of vaguely correct patent law back at you, at no point is there even the beginning of a valid attack. The program would definitely not get a passing grade.

To pass the exam, one would have to realize that elements in the prior art anticipate claim features, even if they are named differently. A lot of prior needs to be ignored to find the anticipating parts. I did not even use the full exam, just snippets, but this clearly is too difficult.
There's a difference between evaluative metrics and diagnostic metrics. You have a handful of top-level metrics that tell you whether things are good or bad on a dashboard. When they change, you have to dig in to see why, so you need more metrics. You segment, you cohort, etc.

Otherwise, you see GMV is down, and you don't and won't understand why.
sole proprietorships are taxed at personal income level but pay pension contributions and/others at a % level, the game became unwhorthy at six figures levels. the way out are paying the lifestyle like SUVs with company funds (deductibles) and if worthy setting paper boxes to pay lower taxes. Example: San Marino offeres Trust funds that are easily taxed at 1.7% on income (can take money out after 2 accounting years). quite handy to build family/long term wealth
Before, being a doctor or a nurse was probably more of a vocation or calling. As that attitude had been destroyed, healthcare professionals expect proper/normal work times and conditions, which is extremely costly. I think secularism plays a part in this, and Christian organizations still provide a lot of care which the government is not capable of giving
I work in Enterprise resource planning (erp) space. Mostly peoplesoft. I'm around things like sap, jd edwards, oracle ebusiness / hcm cloud, rtc.

Proprietary Unixes are frequent and have probably made up 75% of my career including current massive project. Note these are modern and up to date, usually purchased brand new for implementation project hardware and software, not inherited legacy stuff (which seems to set me apart from most respondents here)

Several reasons but note I have very bottoms up perspective.

1. Support. I think this is the major thing. Having a reliable long term vendor with pricey well written steady support model is important to companies who use erp.

2. Related is perception and reality of stability. Aix on power is as proprietary as it gets. These things get rebooted once or twice a decade. Hardware upgrade to another frame is live migration through firmware. It is not fancy or pretty but God dammit baby it works. Perception is there too - that Linux scales well out but not up, that it's vendor support is not at same level, that it moves too fast and breaks things, etc.

3. Deals and contracts. There may be legacy hardware footprint or client may get package deal with application middleware database and hardware.

My personal perspective? Proprietary Unix is ahead on internals, behind on shiny,boring and reliable. There's a lot to be said for distributed cheap boxes over proprietary big boxes. But I don't think modern SREs fully grok how much I never had to deal with hardware or OS issue or outage on these things. Anecdata sample size =1 + gossip, but it's just a very different mindset and, here's the trick, there's nothing inherently wrong with that mindset, even if it's not currently in vogue.

I prefer to work with Linux for a few reasons, including shiny and resume-helpful, but honestly, from business / management perspective, a grouchy experienced aix sysadmin on Power stack makes my job a lot easier.

Edit / p.s. Again these are modern os'es and support Gui and tunnelling.... But I don't think anybody ever uses them. The application stack running on top is certainly modern and gui/Web, but installing and supporting OS, database, middleware and apps is all cli, very obscure, very efficient, very powerful.

Between Oculus, Vive, and other various competitors, VR has been successful in many ways that it wasn't able to achieve 20 years ago. If you set the bar so high that it needs to be as successful as the personal computer or the mobile phone, sure. But I wouldn't call Oculus or modern VR a failure. It's a niche success.

What you are saying is that huge amount of resources was just spend on building the biggest like-farming machine there ever was.

I quite like that viewpoint. It's also a dark reminder what this technology is commercially well suited for.

Very poor choice of words. If the deal is bad, request a refund!

I understand what you are trying to say, but i think that's just entitlement.

Just accept that, as a non-contributing OSS user, you have zero leverage over which features other people pour their energy into. If you do, that's a charitable exception and happens at the generosity of the one doing the work for you.

I think the notion of developers being 'weak communicators' is a bit too simplified. It suggests that if developers were better communicators, then things would move faster & better forward. But the fact is that the audience of non-developers tends to have a completely different mode of thinking, and indeed a different set of targets. Developers would like to see organizations as machines to give instructions to. Non-developers more often see organizations as ladders to climb. It would indeed be a miracle to persuade the latter people into machine-like thinking without a total cultural shift.
Fair point. E-ink does refresh the entire screen though, correct? It's closer to a old-school slide projector than a monitor. I admittedly know little about this topic.

As an aside, I'd love a secondary e-ink monitor. Hopefully the technology improves so prices come down.
> Elon is not wrong to be suspicious, of course now he's banning actual, legit journalists who dare to question him,

As far as I know he's only banning those that link to ElonJet. He's been a bit irrational since his two year old kid had a close encounter with a crazy person a few days ago.

Can anyone recommend a good quality pencil that doesn’t smear? I like pens. I do. I’ve never owned a good fountain pen, but I think I’d prefer a good quality pencil (for short-term notes at least). There’s something about the feeling of the pencil making its mark across paper that is satisfying.
