Remember that when you create an account and log into a service, you don't know if they even hash your password. They could email all the login attempts with your password in plain text.

A good password manager and 2FA, properly setup, should not increase your risk of lock out. It should decrease it - one set of 2FA elements and one password to remember.
I closed everything related to AirBnB 3 years ago, when I booked a room from a Karen who would complain that I would invade her personal space, by passing through the living room, which was the only way to access the entrance door, apparently I was supposed to go in and out less often, like I forced her to rent the room publicly or I was like a unpaying guest.

AirBnB then in its infinite wisdom did nothing to help, they are just a platform that gets your money, without any assistance, solution or due diligence, they just get paid but whenever you need something you are on your own, they can put you in touch with any mentally challenged person, and still they would get no responsibility for that. In general it's just this new economy of disruptors that sucks, just pay with no reliability, hope it will be over soon before it spreads too much to segments that still invest in being reliable, before they understand that apparently it's just a cost and people doesn't mind

Yeah. My son was detecting hints of positivity in my reaction to the story; he cautioned me that the opening blurb smelled like crafted propaganda.
Unless you’re invited to someone’s home to celebrate together you wouldn’t buy random friends a Christmas present. If you’re celebrating together (or if you’re relatively close family) you would buy 1 present and sometimes this would be something small/symbolic (for a child it’s more likely to be a “real” present like Lego or a board game).

But Germans generally don’t celebrate holidays in massive gatherings, I would expect my mother in law to join us, or maybe 1 other person. It would be unusual for the number of people to reach double digits.
Is Windows "themeable" anymore?
My favorite is when a new project thinks it needs this on day one. I'm willing to place money that most new projects will struggle to saturate a single computer. Much less a distributed infrastructure. (yes, I'm well aware there are some cases. But even most fang projects are doing relatively little work, all told.)
I had this problem to. And sufficed to say, the one family member we did convert is understandably panicked after the LP breach, and the one who held out is now smug about it.

For the ones who have held out, I gave up and just bought them all one of those "Password Journal" things from Barnes and Noble. Having unique passwords for every site is more important than having an electronic vault, so, baby steps.
> I liked reading this article because it helps show places where quantum computing adds value by solving problems.

The D-Wave is not a quantum computer. Quantum computers have quite different usage cases (but on the macro level, should be very useful to the pharma industry too).
Of course SDI is still used: there's nothing better! The only update was to minify it so we now have SDI on smaller gear. Smaller, but still with twist lock. When it comes to professional cameras, I don't want an HDMI cable any where near my setup.

Reminds me of the Technic 1200s. Built in the 70s, nearly perfect on first release, no major updates required. Only small tweaks with no bearing to core functionality. I feel the same way about SDI. Feature complete!
Who is "we" and do you have statistics behind that "most?" And why is "paid to solve" relevant to the discussion? It's okay to say that what I'm saying about my personal experience doesn't resonate with your personal experience, but hand-waving at a nebulous authority isn't making a case.

I use compile-time flags to deduplicate logic because refactoring is a nightmare if tens to hundreds of lines of code are turned into boilerplate. That is to say, I ensure conceptual integrity by maintaining a single source of truth. The nice thing about relatively dry code is that if you need to decouple it, you can easily just duplicate the code in question and run with that. If you have a dozen slightly-different copies of the same boilerplate, it's very rare in my experience for the variations to be well documented, so it ends up taking a lot of work to figure out why the variations exist -- and the real pitfall that I've seen time and time again is that a bug is found in one variant, fixed there, and not propagated to the other variants.
First Impressions of Stage Manager on an Ultrawide Display (Updated)
I suspect that it happens because of the asymmetrical power relationships between the customer and supplier. The suppliers are typically too small to have the option to sue. Perhaps the solution is to make this kind of breach of contract a strict liability criminal offence!
If you're looking at this problem not as a technical person, but just as someone looking for the most practical solution to the problem ... Chrome's built-in password management is the obvious mass-market solution.

It suggests (relatively) strong passwords, it discourages password re-use, it surfaces when you use passwords that have been found in a data breach, and it allows you to access these passwords across devices.

I have no idea about the cryptographic strength of Chromes's offerings, but the fact that it is the leading browser worldwide means that it's going to be dead-simple for most people to adopt, even those who are decidedly non-technical.

(Personally, I use Bitwarden and 1Password, but I'm a software engineer. I would not expect my elderly family members to do the same, especially because both involve installing and maintaining browser extensions that can be finicky when Chrome updates.)
Weird part about this is that, at least when I onboarded, Airbnb made me do ID verification to make sure I wasn’t a bot or a puppet.

After that, they’ve already made the fees on the stay. Most people won’t be losing 20% or whatever to farm good reviews.

Why would the final and optional review step be the part where they decide to verify if the stranger staying in someone else’s house is a real person.
Amazon is already close to this sort of interface from a UX perspective because the main feature on the Amazon www homepage is a search field. But, here are a couple of difference that the user would see at chat.amazon.com compared to the current homepage:

1. For the use case where you are searching for a specific product, you could much more efficiently get from the search box to the product you want. Think about all of the text entry and clicks you would go through now to find exactly the right product that meets all of your needs including function, size, price, color, review sentiment, compatibility, etc. And compare that effort to if you had an executive assistant to whom you could quickly rattle off your needs and preferences and then maybe answer a clarifying question or two. chat.amazon.com would be like that executive assistant.

2. For all the other use cases (i.e. returns, shipping status, subscription preferences, etc.), you don't have to fiddle through the menu options to finally land at the point you wanted. You just say, "I want to change my default shipping address from ABC to XYZ", and you land a page with the new address parsed into all the correct fields, ready for you to confirm the change.

Now, I will grant you that there is some ground to travel in ML development before this particular set of functionality could be implemented, but you chose Amazon and I wanted to be directly responsive. The point is that ML technology after many years finally seems close - very close - to all this being real. It's not hard to imagine this is where things are heading, and so will 2023 be the year CEOs and CTOs of well funded companies start moving in this direction.

But here's the thing: you didn't needed COM or ActiveX or MFC in many cases. You could literally wire up and build an up pretty effortlessly. With webdev today we jump directly to very complicated things when 90% of the time they are not needed.
This is really neat. Can you share what inspired you to create these components? My significant other is an educator and she is always looking for fun and inspiring ways to introduce mathematical concepts to her student. Are you approaching this from an educational perspective?
> “We were fortunate enough to have lived in other countries and saved some money, so we were able to become an angel investor. The rest is history,” explained his adoptive father, Mike Bezos, a Cuban immigrant who worked as an engineer. at Exxon, one of the world’s leading oil companies, in 2015.

I think all that these stories mean is that “self-made” applies to a few generations rising up from poverty to great wealth, rather than a single person. Rather than denigrate these successful people we should applaud their predecessors for helping the next generation get ahead, and encourage society as a whole to adopt this mindset. Too often it seems like generations have a “I got mine” drawbridge mentality and refuse to sacrifice if it means future generations will have a chance to get ahead.

I point at climate change, public debt, private debt, gutted social programs, etc.

I used to live in a 4 unit apartment in SF. One of the units in the building was a full time Airbnb. On several occasions, the different Airbnb renters parked in the wrong spot in our small garage, which disrupted the parking situation for the non-Airbnb tenants in the unit. On another occasion, a renter got locked out of the front gate. I watched from my window as they bent the gate bars so they could open the gate without using the key. When I went down to the gate to ask them what they were doing, they denied damaging the property.

Where I live now is area of all single family homes. One house on my street is also a full time Airbnb. There have been fewer issues, but there was one occasion where some people rented the house, threw a party in the house, shots were fired, and bullets went through a neighboring house. There have never been issues at this level in the neighborhood, so this was out of the ordinary.

Not all short term, full time Airbnbs are disrespectful. Not all long term, non-Airbnb neighbors are respectful. But IMO, with non-Airbnb neighbors, you have a better chance of working something out since they are there for the long haul.
> I think that once you put enough countries on both sides of your line...

The votes were 24Yes 84No and 54abstaining.

In other words the US was in the minority.

The article unfortunately picks only russia and china as examples of the countries that voted no. Here are some of the other countries that vote no, do you see them as evil?

- Portugal

- Ireland

- Belgium

- Maldives

- Luxemburg

- Barbados

What about US allies that abstained? are they good or evil now?

- France

- Brazil

- Denmark

- Finland

- Japan

- the Netherlands

- Sweden

- Switzerland

There are no governments so "basically good" as to be good all the time, and no governments so "evil" as to be evil all the time. We can just make up ideas of good and evil to simplify things so we don't have to think. That's what successful propaganda looks like.
It’s Doug DeMuro’s Worst Car of the Year. Every other review I’ve seen is also overwhelmingly negative.

It has a range of a “city car”, but a price of EVs with double the range.

It has max 50kW DC charging, while the competition has >100kW speeds. This makes the short range even more limiting.

It’s not even powerful, even though high torque is the one easy trick for EVs.

It’s a conversion of a gas car, not a dedicated platform, which wastes cabin and storage space. Mazda failed to keep the same front/rear weight balance making the car reportedly handle poorly.

It’s technically at the level of 2009 Renault Zoe or the old Leaf, but for a price of 2019 eNiro or the current Kona and Cupra Born.
“People who voted to defund the police are now paying for private security.”

I’m having a Bad Pants day today because we had a big bowl of popcorn with our movie last night and I’m retaining water because of it.

One of the ways I’ve controlled weight, tooth decay and crossing the A1C threshold into prediabetes is to swap sweets for savory snacks, which almost universally come with a higher sodium burden (not just salt but also umami).

Telling people that sodium is bad is part of how we got to overindulgence in sweets. We do not want to go back down that road.
I'm not sure if meta discussions are allowed in these hiring posts, but I just want to remind people that effective yesterday California now requires job postings to include a salary or hourly wage range. Companies with fewer than 15 employers are exempt so it might not apply to all California based startups, but I already see multiple job postings here for larger companies which are clearly violating this new law.

I personally would love to see HN make this a requirement for all postings going forward and not just for the California based ones.

From my experience, optimal hydration comes with vegetables, because that's the perfect mixture with water, minerals, vitamins, other elements and fibers, so also as raw (to preserve their qualities) and ripe as possible, fermented too is great
It's one of the first things that I put up on our wiki: a referral list indicating who to ask for questions about which domain. Actually, there's two columns: the first is the operational lead(s), or "who should I ask questions about X"; the second column is the tactical/architecture lead, or "if we disagree on a solution for X, who has the deciding vote?"

The latter has avoided countless hours of bikeshedding, or so I'd like to believe.

> The reason we don’t drink distilled water is that it ends up robbing your body of minerals.

The Internet has multiple opinions on the veracity of this statement. They range the full gamut: from "causes harmful leaching", to "has no/neutral effect", to "generates helpful absorption".

As a non-expert, I find the "neutral" explanations more persuasive.

Am I wrong? Or do we just weigh plausible sources differently?
I started my Web Dev career in 2005, around the time "Web 2.0" started to pickup steam. It was (In my recollection) really the beginning of the Web Application model. Users were starting to expect web pages to do more, and be more than "click a link, go to another page"

I'm certain any developer from that era has a story about writing tools to make their own life easier. Prototype and jQuery were popular as they abstracted a lot of the obnoxious stuff you had to do over and over again.

And the story goes on from there. The complexity is a story of trying to simplify for the developer, and then trying fix the costs of the overhead from those simplifications.

As for your second question. It's not necessary of course, but if you don't use these frameworks and tools, sooner or later (I think) you're going to be engineering a solution yourself.
"People owning fractional buildings" has existed for almost 150 years, at what point should we start to see NYC buildings collapsing due to structural collapse?
But we have had that tech since the 60's.

And you won't be doing four missions in parallel before you've done one that succeeds and as far as I can see with the known technical limitations an economical improvement isn't going to result in a technical success, just in a cheaper failure.
