That is fucked up.

also Inca and Aztechs were from south america right?

there is also a new form of slavery currently active in the US where immigrants are brought to work and their passports are kept with their "employer" until xyz condition.

so slavery still exists but it is no longer a government policy as it used to be in US

I don't understand how, in the 21st century can we have slaves or bonded labourers. Apalling
Some things that are bad are not so bad that we should make them impossible to do. Just because you might be a jerk to do something, doesn't mean it should be enforceable by armed people with guns. Is it really insufficient (or somehow so difficult) for us to simply dislike people who are jerks rather than try to put them in jail / fine them?
ah, carefully nudging the public opinion into the desired direction
Oh snap; okay! i'll try it!

FTFY. Last I checked it's just a unilateral Chrome implementation, no one else recommends it.
In this case, you'd need to do more than change the law; you'd need to amend the Constitution.
Lol. Yeah, she's the asshole here.
Other countries are dubiously relevant. This is a US lawyer commenting on a US case.
So at around the 2:19:00 mark in this recording [1] you mention that the app is a “business card”. But a business card has a unique identity attached to it, verified by the act of handing it to someone else.

An IP address can never be a business card because it fails to uniquely identify a person. If you’re sharing a VPN exit node with 10 people, there is no way to differentiate them on that tool.

You also mention around that same time that the tool can be used to prove that you know something. This isn’t exactly true. You can prove that you’re on the same network as the person who knows some information but that’s not as strong a knowledge claim.

One way you could get around this issue (although still not 100% foolproof) is browser fingerprinting. Your identity is the hash of your browser fingerprint.

> Only in tech would someone casually take a 50% pay cut without it absolutely destroying their life.

That's usually because so much of the total comp is from options/RSUs. You can take a new job that pays more in base pay but take a huge cut because it's a startup (so the option are worth nothing on paper today) vs. a public company with RSUs that have value on the open market.

Or, as the current market is showing, you could take a huge cut in pay even while staying on the same role, simply because the RSUs are suddenly underwater.

My base salary has been on a slow but steady increase for decades. But my total comp has taken wild swings up and down. It's an industry where pay is very unpredictable, due to most of it being in options/RSUs.
I was already wondering why CloudFlare was blogging about how bad they are for the open internet. This title makes a lot more sense.
> Issuing a SEND syscall every 50 bytes is also horrendously CPU-inefficient

This is the real crime here. The fact that it maxed out at 2.5Mb/s might be quite literally due to CPU limit.

If you are streaming a large amount of data, you should use a user space buffer anyway, especially if you have small chunks. In Golang, buffers are standard practice and a one-liner to add.
Z-library began as a Libgen mirror but split off and stopped sharing uploads. It's kind of scummy, but I guess that just means people need to put more effort into uploading its contents back to Libgen.
I've used Linux on an X1 Carbon for many years now, but I just bought a 12th Gen Framework - so far it's noticeably better in every aspect, from software support to build quality to support, and of course maintainability.

The X1 generally worked, but there were always occasional teething issues & manual fiddling required. The Framework meanwhile works flawlessly, has official support and detailed setup guides for many major distros, and I've seen their customer service personally help debug & fix Linux issues in their forums (resulting in far more useful answers when googling questions, so far). It's in another league.
The article was very clearly written with a US legal perspective, given that its author is a US lawyer and the case is pending in a US Federal court.
I don’t think the argument is that “paid” is more private than “free” in a general sense, just that Kagi specifically can allow you more privacy than Google because Kati’s business model is direct monetization.

No need to argue the abstract; all that matters is the specific. If Kagi specifically is abusing trust, I’d love to hear it.
Open Firmware was Forth based and got relatively wide industry adoption. I’d say that counts as viable actual programming.
And to clarify, by "skip a bunch of files", what I of course mean is that if your document is named "Your Document.md", what the first find(1) command will do is attempt to run "wc -l" on "Your" and "Document.md", neither of which it can find, a fact about which it will complain bitterly, creating much noise in your shell session. It will fail to run "wc -l" on the file "Your Document.md", which the second example will do correctly (and not on the name-fragments).

"wc -l" gives a line count for a file. That's ... not especially advanced, but is a trivial example of an xargs command which you should be able to try without causing any problems on your own system.
It seems pretty fucked up that if I’m being defamed, I can’t do anything about it if the person defaming me is mentally ill. Do I just have to sit there and watch my reputation go down the shitter, with potential loss of jobs, income, etc.? That doesn’t seem like a workable system to me.
Creator or Ellx here. The reason is quite prosaic: I haven't maintained the site for almost a year :/ For various reasons. However, I'm getting back at it now. Ellx as a framework has evolved during this period, and is capable of much more than just a spreadsheet now, but this progress hasn't made it to ellx.io just yet.
May I ask what you liked most about Ellx? What is your use case?
Did it write the comments, too?
Access as an idea was awesome.

The execution sucked because Access is/was a terrible database. Poor data integrity, really low limits on the DB size, etc.

I think if Access was as good as SQLlite, it would have really taken off.
Actually, since any device can and does have multiple IPv6 addresses and can easily get more, blocking individual IPv6 address is ineffective. Some services choose to block /64 so the collateral damage is not reduced in any way.
From a link in the article, their impoverished neighbor has much higher numbers. A sizable discrepancy has existed throughout 2020, 2021 and 2022, i.e. before and after vaccines became available, so that doesn't seem to be a factor.

> Across the border in the neighboring Dominican Republic, with roughly the same population, the pandemic has killed almost ten times the number, 2,364.
> Automation often faces pushback from workers and labor advocates, who see it as a way for employers to eliminate jobs.

What's wrong with eliminating jobs when there's a ton of unfilled jobs? It's not like they'd be laying anyone off.
> Companies issue more stock to sell and raise capital all the time.

Sure, but that’s still a small fraction of most trades most of the time. When companies sell stock (long after their IPO) the sales kind of have to be dripped out as a small percentage of the trading volume of the stock or it would negatively affect the price (more than considered acceptable). If a company or its insiders are most of the sellers by volume (again, if a company has been public a while), that’s a bad sign for the company.

> Not directly, but indirectly it does.

Also yes, but I would quibble that this is moving the goal posts from your original statement :). “The money goes to finance the business” seemed like a pretty direct declarative statement that didn’t touch on the nuance of “buying stock -> pushes price up -> makes debt cheaper for company/makes further stock sales attractive”.

I get the point you’re making and don’t entirely disagree. But in a proud HN tradition it read as a confident and straightforward declaration that describes the (IMHO) minority case, but not the more common case and sweeps important nuance aside.

Please don’t take that to mean I thought your thoughts or understanding were also lacking in nuance, I didn’t. But I figure there will always be people coming through these threads who don’t know the nuance, they’ll read the highly upvoted top comments and move on, thinking they’ve improved their understanding, and they will be led astray, so I was responding to the words as-written.
Because it is not realistic. In every nation that has ever existed, the supplier of money has always been a monopolist. And this is precisely because the supplier has requested taxes to be paid in that currency that they supply. If you have multiple suppliers of money, then you literally destroy the entire basis of the state. The whole thing comes crashing down.

> Investing in stocks does provide jobs and income to others. When you buy stocks, the money goes to finance the business.

could somebody expand on this please? as far as I understood it, companies like Apple don’t issue shares very often. How does the share price going up go to their business unless they issue more shares (diluting existing shareholders)?

Even when the US comparison is limited to young people, there is still a huge delta.
Anglo countries tend to aggressively extradite, even for things that are not major crimes by their own law, to the US over copyright related offences. I'd tread with extreme caution.
In the US, you're not being defamed until someone relates a damaging false fact. This particular defendant has, apparently, only said that the Tarot deck told her the plaintiff was a murderer. That's not a fact. It's like saying "in my opinion, you're a murderer". You're allowed to do that.

This is an example of the old trope that only random controlled trials (RCTs) can demonstrate causation. It was doctrine enforced until the '90s. Nowadays, statisticians have protocols to extract a causation signal from population studies that are large enough.

That is not to claim lack of vaccination causes dementia. But it means something affected by vaccination does.

When you follow a cohort of 46,000 patients for six years, you get enough good data to draw strong conclusions. That the same numbers came out for a disjoint population of 12,000, over the same period, demonstrates it. But statistics only points you in a direction, it is not biochemistry.
Plenty of women need and want something to do besides 24/7 baby and house care stuff. And they won't starve to death if they don't do it.

Ask HK: Are hand written signatures meaningless?
I don't know if it's just me dipping too much of my life in the digital world. I feel stupid whenever anyone ask me to use hand written signature to prove my identity.

My hand writing is exceptionally bad and inconsistent. My signature is different every time. I can't even tell if my signature was actually written by me. So, if there are people like me exist (presumably in good quantity), I wonder what is the point of recording signature to prove my identity?
I wish I could buy this, but you really don't want it to be illegal to say "politician X is a murderer", because they started a war or denied food to orphans or something. I don't know if there's a viable way to draw the line between that and the case in the article. (Note: safety from crazy people who believe the claim doesn't work, since people are definitely going to go after politician X.
Not a lawyer, but my interpretation of the post is that a cartomantic reading is an opinion, e.g. "In my opinion, these cards indicate that Professor Scofield plotted and ordered the murders" could be a protected expression. If she lied about what cards she drew, or she lied about her interpretation (both of which sound hard to prove) then she might be in trouble.
This is truth. Monipolies are anti competitive.

That bit you quoted, “Professor Scofield plotted and ordered the murders”, was the author's summary, rather than the actual statements made by Guillard.

As is sleeping on their stomachs, and most babies really don't like to sleep on their backs. It's no wonder parents have issues...and no wonder many babies have the back of their heads flattened.

For what it's worth I agree cosleeping is (in general) quite dangerous, but I do wish all of those recommendations weren't put into place at the same time. It'd be nice to know how much back sleeping helped with SIDS vs cosleeping vs no pillows/blankets/etc.
It is true that many historical cultures have had a traditiom of periodic or irregular debt forgiveness. I think it is far less clear that the effect of such traditions was to constrain inequalities of wealth or income, or even that, lacking the ability for a narrow elite to organize extractive systems at the scale possible in the modern world, historical societies even had anything meaningfully comparable to modern problems in that domain to address.
In the US, public officials have to prove actual malice to win a defamation claim to avoid this sort of scenario.

Always Dell Precision, although I'd love it if there were non-Intel CPU options (or if Intel got their act together and produced a rival for Apple's latest and greatest chips).
There are massive issues with hiding the real challenges with children from potential mothers and fathers.

I suspect it's a combination of:

1) Prior/older parents worried about embarrassment or being shamed for going through what they did - a lot of it things that no one likes to talk about.

2) Folks worried (potentially correctly) that many folks would opt to not have kids, which is already a population problem, if they understood what it really meant.

It's the same about War and men returning from it, frankly, though war movies tend to be a lot more glamourous, even the gritty ones.
I want this to succeed. I probably won’t hop in at the $10 price point but I probably would at $5.
Of course there is a point in asking, to find out. The background check is verification.

Did you know that employers frequently ask for your employment history in the form of a resume, but then they’ll contact one or two recent employers to confirm you were employed?

Trust, but verify. It’s a leaky but effective check against con artists.
Personally I would say the Lenovo X1 Extreme rather than the Carbon.
I've got a last-gen Lemur that I really like. (lemp10 / 11th-gen Core i7-1165G7, one generation older than jart's link.) I'd recommend their new one on that basis. I'm pretty happy with Pop OS.

However, I'd say the decision between it and the Oryx (which OP has on their poll) is about OP's needs and preferences, rather than one strictly beating the other.

It has a long battery life even after a few years of use, compared to other laptops I've used (higher rated capacity, and probably lower power consumption than the Oryx). It's very thin and light, but still fast and doesn't get very hot.

One caveat though: it's got no discrete GPU, which may or may not matter for you. (Probably that accounts for a good part of the battery life.) If the Lemur were my only computer I'd probably regret it on that basis. Its specs, even setting aside the GPU, are also going to be less impressive than the Oryx.

But the Lemur is about half the weight - I would happily trade the performance for battery life and mobility. I also like the ability to charge with USB-C - a non-power-hungry laptop means you don't require a special power connector (or more advanced USB power delivery that IIUC isn't really widespread yet).
I searched "best air purifiers" and the second result was for the home page of nutriteam.com which is apparently a water distilling company. Hmm. It seems the "best headphones" sample result is cherry picked

“prunning” and “innane” — too many ens!
In my experience, when someone thinks they should be able to do it, but can't do it, and suffers from the consequences of that - you'll get that kind of reaction. Not saying it's what's happening here, but I've seen it a lot.

Difficulty getting themselves to get their kids vaccinated (the screaming or crying is hard!) is a big factor behind the antivax movement, IMO.
Ever heard of China?
In the legal sense, it's not clear that you are being defamed just because a crazy person believes crazy things for crazy reasons. The article goes into how (and why) the standard is (usually) higher than that.

It's not clear what should happen differently. The court can't enforce the private mental states of random citizens; there could be millions of cranks right now who believe that you're a murderer and are talking about you behind your back. Unless their beliefs come from factual claims that they know are false, it's not clear what recourse the courts should offer you.
Globalstar with an iPhone is not battletested at all. A huge chunk of the complexity of a sat system is in the ground side and the iPhone form factor is new.
I think it's a ritual meant to convey that you intend to enter into a legally binding arrangement with someone, one of the requirements of a contract (eg, to establish that you aren't joking or being figurative about your agreement). I think the possibility of forensically analyzing it to prove your identity is secondary, if it's a consideration at all. Indeed, I've "signed" documents digitally where the software used a "signature" that was just a font, totally divorced from my handwriting & of no forensic value.
I think it’s a perception issue. We perceive ourselves to be more productive because we have a bias for WFH. Some folks may actually be, but now the whole is no longer greater than the sum of its parts where once it was.

Napster wasn't decentralized, it relied on a centralized index which is why it was shut down. Gnutella relied on a broadcast search which didn't scale.

You can add my anecdotal experience to yours.

Co-sleeping seemed like the cheat code to getting baby boy to sleep through the night.
Title needs a "(2006)" suffix.
That's clever. Have you had good luck with a particular model?
> There is way too much romanticization of a false past here in this larger HN discussion

Some stuff is evolutionary. Co-sleeping is seen in all mammal species. And its an important part of the group sentiment, including the social support it brings. The lack of it causes anxiety in mammal species. Even domestic cats prefer to take care of their young in groups of mothers until the kittens grow up.

> This kid cried every time a fart came. At some point you just need to learn...

...that those farts have been causing pain in his abdomen or scrotum. Its amazing how it did not occur to you and instead you let the kid to just 'go through' it.

> England and France in the 1780s for instance it was extraordinarily common to simply ship your baby out to the country so you could work or maintain your aristocratic figure

Inbreeding, negligent and sociopathic aristocrats are never good examples for anything related to the basic tenets of human civilization. Less, parenting. Sheeesh. If your parenting morning star is murderous 18th century aristocrats who starved their people to be able to live in extravaganza with their powdered wigs...
By that logic one shouldn't ever criticise let's say, Google (a separate entity), because in theory one could get a job there, work their way up to be CEO and then change how the company works. In fact, why ever criticise anything or express any opinion when instead you could be 'doing something about it'?

I think it's okay for people to express their opinion on the internet, and it's not a moral failing that they are doing that instead of, as you suggest elsewhere, running for office, getting elected, writing a bill and finding allies.

Zigbee will probably be absorbed/obsolete on the long run, but Matter is an application layer that runs on both Wi-Fi and Thread.

I really really want this to take off. SQL sucks. No, I do not care if relational algebra is beautiful, or simple, or represents some other mathematical purity which makes it the best way to represent data. SQL, as implemented, is a rough language which makes too many things difficult.

Unfortunately, it is really difficult for me to lean against this for anything “real” without more years of battle testing. Queries have to be right. I do not want something to blow-up one day because the translation hit a buggy edge case. SQL has many flaws, but everyone knows it. Nobody ever got fired for writing SQL.

Sorry, yeah I mean Pi-like SBC, ie with GPIO. In my case a NanoPi NEO-LTS[1], mainly because I had one available and I didn't need much hardware just to run the NTP (it's all it does).

It runs Armbian[2] and has been sitting there doing its thing for a few years now.

All you need is a GPIO for PPS, but it's nice to have the UART so it can parse the time and such.

edit: since it's slightly different on Armbian from a Raspberry Pi, you need to enable the pps-gpio overlay similarly[3], but the pin parameter is different[4], for the H3 in the NanoPi NEO for example see here[5].
