Ah I see. So the issue is basically just that on Safari mobile the arrow points to the right instead of downwards. That seems to be the only difference between Safari and Chrome. It seems Chrome's mobile implementation is worse on every front here (second in pic):

I do think Firefox does it best if the whole issue here is just that the year-month picker needs to more obviously look like a drop-down

I agree that would be an improvement, but tbh it doesn't seem substantial enough to fully prevent the issue that the seniors in the OP were facing

Can you elaborate on this? How does this happen, and is it a permanent de-buff?

Fuck social media. There are too many people clamoring for attention through manufactured viral outrage and victimhood. Plus, I don't give a shit about someone's lunch, their winter family vacation montage, or random people resharing viral conspiracy theories. Twitter is a cesspool of anonymous, thoughtless, and shallow noise, and Musk's tweets are par for the course.

And fuck viral micro-vlog influencer platforms. If people have life to waste on useless idle consumption rather than production, that's their choice. People with shit to do don't have time to watch crap that doesn't add value.

Also, LinkedIn is a cesspool of annoying, lazy, keyword-matching, slimy, labor pimps. I don't even use a resume anymore because there is little or no meaningful professionalism in the engineering of software or systems and resumes are basically lies. It's how someone works on real problems that matters, not trivial pursuit interview questions or brain teasers. Anyone looking for an easy paycheck can become an unethical, unprofessional, ignorant software developer. When I hear an organization hires people without relevant engineering expertise, I look for the door because it's going to be an amateur-hour shitshow.

But I can tell you who I won't talk about startup ideas with: uncurious, close-minded, complacent, dependent, niche specialists who refuse to realize they are living on borrowed time as employees rather than owners of something else much more valuable. Anyone who goes home and plays video games isn't self-aware enough to realize they are squandering their life assuming their current security will continue. It won't.
The difference is it would be likely inconsequential if a the cloud resource running this was compromised. There’s no direct link (at least there shouldn’t be) to a work machine, which might have credentials or itself VPN information for an employer.

Yevgeny did exactly this. He compromised a web server running Apache or something, used that to brute force his way into a networked work machine, which took weeks, but went undetected. That machine turned out to be the physical host the VM running the web server was on. Then he used the work machine to break into LinkedIn using credentials and VPN profiles found on the iMac.

This vector would have been impossible had that open server not been running so close to the work machine.
"Rigged" is unnecessarily inflammatory and reduces credibility. It'd be equivalent to WSJ using the term when covering RoaringKitty and the GameStop news event.

Agreed. Safari's mobile implementation is better than Chrome's. Firefox feels like the only one that got it "right" but even then I think many seniors would still not realized they could navigate by year

p.s. A comment beginning with "I hate these stupid parrots claiming Safari is the new IE" obviously broke the HN guidelines and therefore did not belong at the top of the thread. The moderation here was correct; your comment and laster destructive edit were out of line.

Musk supports speech that Musk likes; that isn't freedom. For example, Musk is against speech that criticizes Twitter or Elon; some are intimidated and harassed (e.g., called pedophiles), and some are silenced (or 'canceled') including journalists and others.
It wasn’t simple. Next time, it will be important to be transparent about the tradeoffs of different types of material, and any need to route masks towards certain sectors being temporary. The strategy to feed the public a series of simplified messages was harmful from a public health perspective and sets the next pandemic response up for unnecessary challenges. All this is compatible with mandatory mask wearing, too.

The rhetoric from the public about masks being simple and obvious had the same problem on the friends-and-family scale.
The government shouldn't be doing that. Also, it's important to break down what is meant by "the government" here -- it was the FBI attempting to suppress a news story which later turned out to be true about the son of a candidate for president. That sort of thing should not happen.

Secondly, this kind of moderation is counterproductive. It gives all the conspiracy theorists a true conspiracy to point to -- they really are being suppressed by "the man" or "the Feds" or whatever. Also, no matter how much stuff gets moderated, the left will never be happy.

End result: everyone is mad at Twitter, nobody trusts anything, conspiracy theorists get to make true claims about suppression, and more people are attracted to misinformation because it was suppressed -- e.g. "the government doesn't want you to know this!" or "see what the government is trying to hide from you!"

I would agree. I think it is generally a thing of becoming more "adult". 90s kids very likely were quite into various social medias or proto versions thereof. Work takes more time, then possibly family. Or just generally getting tired with it.

As a fellow beekeeper, I like the cut of your jib - seems like you've done some interesting thinking on this point and it certainly seems like an idea that could merit further research. That said, my personal answer to this is in line with what the author concludes is a possible answer: "Perhaps because they're disposable parts of a larger super-organism which has evolved by multi-level selection" IE: basically everything the hive does, the hive does together and individual bee matter very little. In fact, upon reflection it might make sense to view an individual bee as more akin to a cell in mammals as opposed to an individual organism, IE: cells can die or be regenerated, but the overall body continues. Given that bee lifespans are measured in weeks, even a bee that does not sacrifice itself stinging in defense of the hive will have a very short existence - and be replaced by thousands of others in short order if the queen is healthy.
"Why does a government has to "lean" on a private media company in a "democrat" and "liberal" democracy?"

There are people within the government whose job it was to respond to the covid pandemic. Part of that response involved educating the public about the disease and best practices related to it, which therefore included fighting misinformation. Misinformation is spread on platforms such as Twitter, so it made sense for the government to communicate with Twitter and let them know what it considered to be a good course of action. Do you disagree with this explanation?
This is the question - why are homo sapiens thinking flowers are beautiful when they evolved for the benefit of VERY different species (insects, mostly).

And it's fine to make an argument against moderation in general. But that's not what this article is doing.
> Instead, it was those countries with greater uncertainty avoidance that had larger differences in interests in people/things between men and women. Uncertainty avoidance refers to the degree to which a culture teaches its members to feel unpleasant in situations that are new, not previously known, surprising, or generally just different from usual.

I wouldn't mind seeing a ranking of countries by uncertainty avoidance. That sounds interesting enough itself.
The study in the topic seems to contradict this, although the summary is a bit confusing:

"Considering gender inequality, the authors report that “in countries of higher gender inequality, women’s stronger preference for working with people versus things compared to men was smaller.” However, this effect disappeared when cultural dimensions were taken into account.

"Instead, it was those countries with greater uncertainty avoidance that had larger differences in interests in people/things between men and women. Uncertainty avoidance refers to the degree to which a culture teaches its members to feel unpleasant in situations that are new, not previously known, surprising, or generally just different from usual."

You can try to take whatever job is available, but if you're a typical "people person" you're less likely to have developed the skills to get hired in most technical jobs, and if you're a more technically-oriented person you're less likely to have developed the people skills to get hired in jobs where those are important.

Almost anyone can develop either, but when they don't, through whatever combination of chance and default temperament.... very few employers will give someone a chance at crossing that divide without some prior indication the prospective employee will be decent at it, because chances are they won't be.

Definitely agree wrt the last point. It's bizarre that one of the one hand as far as I know Twitter is still committed to moderating a wide range of content (hate speech, violent media, etc.) but on the other hand Musk has doubled down on bots and calling the shots in a top down manner (exactly what this article called out).
The FBI comes up in plenty of the other Twitter censorship stories. Covid is not a one-off, and this article exists in that broader context, or it would not be interesting. It was part of a sustained, illiberal, counterproductive, and overall pretty stupid pattern of behavior from both the government and Twitter.
Yes all the desktop ones have editable text.

I haven't tried it, but I imagine you can manually override an `<input>`'s onFocus to not call `e.target.showPicker()` when it's focused on. This would likely allow users to keyboard enter an amount instead

Might be annoying for users that actually know how to use and prefer the picker however.

I think there's a hidden issue there: it's 2022, almost 2023, and we still don't have standardized auto-fill forms. Browser auto-fillers somewhat work, but because every website is implemented so differently, I always end up having to type my address number or birthdate again.

I can't see why there isn't an standard semantic web standard for this. We shoukd standardise how common fields should be named and their datatypes set once and for all. Example: set on a field for month AND a field for day. No more MM/DD vs DD/MM issues. One-click and it's unambiguously filled by the browser. Seriously, what's preventing this from happening?
In France a government official was explaining (while France had supply shortages) that masks required complex training to wear properly, and she herself did not know how to wear one, and so were useless to most people.

A few weeks later an emergency law was passed and you would receive a fine if not wearing them.

Similar situation in many countries.
What a dumb and ignorant article.

"Can't be monetized": news shouldn't be monetized, and neither should personal assistants that tie together personal data and control of vital home systems.

VAs are an operating system for all of the other products and services. You give away the printer or the razor handle, and charge for ink and razor blades. You give away the personal assistant, and charge for voices, ringtones, music, movies, groceries, apps, alarms, security features, and so on.

If you're spending billions upon billions running a VA that's stagnant and not very good, then you suck as a CIO/CTO and shouldn't be trusted with that sort of budget.
