> I live in a democracy, so its my duty to form an opinion about large controversial purchases my government proposes to make. Of course my opinion on most of them can't be an expert opinion, but it can be at least as good as my representatives'.

I agree with you that in a democracy it's a citizen duty to be informed of what is happening. Though in the case of fighter jets, or other high-end military systems, they are very complex and the exact capabilities (and how the military intends to make the most of those capabilities, which can vary greatly for different offerings in a tender) are highly classified. And to be fair, I'm quite sure our representatives don't know much if anything of the classified stuff either.

At least in the Finnish case, there was a procurement organization setup including, obviously, Air Force personnel but also lots of other expertise. They did a very expensive and thorough evaluation of the various offerings, including access to classified material I'm sure, before ending up at recommending the F-35. The politicians then more or less rubber-stamped the recommendation. That is not to say that politicians couldn't go against that recommendation, ultimately it's their decision. Things like industrial policy (aka jobs programs) related to major military acquisitions matter, and particularly during the cold war Finland tried to stay neutral and one way this was done was that major military acquisitions were divided between Soviet and Western gear (e.g. how Finland ended up with both Mig-21 and Saab Draken fighters). Though today if the politicians would decide to go against the recommendation of the procurement organization I'm sure that would cause quite an uproar and need some pretty hefty justifications.

5. To add sections to code

Code is writing, would you write a technical book without sections and chapters?
Hype Machine is also still great for discovery.
1/ For me it's similar to meditation in terms of the appeal. It's a way to slow down and think, not necessarily for measurable gain but to be a bit more present in the flow of things. I've learned a lot about myself as I do a lot of introspection when writing.
2/ Yes, a major feature I'd like to build is a retrospective flow as I've developed a pretty nice system for going back and pulling out "nuggets" from past entries. Seeing your own thoughts after some time, as a stranger is a really useful tool to understand how your mind works.

This, funny enough, is all you needed to say to completely delineate your entire political view.

> So was I punished when my previous right to buy a semi-auto centre-fire was removed? Or was my society made somewhat safer because it's now very hard to obtain guns that were designed as weapons for use against other humans first and foremost?

Fallacy, making guns harder to acquire does not stop crime. Turns out, criminals don't follow laws. Shucks. Want evidence? Everything south of the border. The entire state of Illinois. Los Angeles. Italy. The list goes on. Oh, are you going to cite Australia? They collected a laughably small amount of guns from the population during their gun ban. So small in fact the number is never quoted because it is actually evidence gun bans don't and will never work (< 20%). The only reason they were even that successful (that is to say, not at all) is because they are literally surrounded on all sides by water and their only natural enemies are themselves.

Let me introduce a counter argument:

Why is it that when we talk about hard drugs, abortion, etc "banning it doesn't work" but when we talk about guns the only solution is to ban them with prejudice? Is it because "those things don't kill people"? Because, current there's a literal war going on in Mexico. You know, the place where all the fentanyl murdering US citizens comes from. Leave my rights alone.

> At the intersection between the right to bear arms, and the right to not be shot at school or the mosque or the gay nightclub, which right should win?

The right to bear arms, which when properly executed protects the mosque and the night club. But yeah, use a false dichotomy to further dig yourself deeper into a hole you'll never surface from.

There is a reason there are so many words in the dictionary. They communicate different, nuanced shades of meaning and emotion. Same with the grammar going beyond simple sentences. Dumbing down your prose, you lose all that power. Indeed, all this subtlety will be lost on the reader, who does not appreciate or understand it. So you should know your reader but aim not for the lowest possible denominator but close to the limit of their comprehension and appreciation. This way, you will have at your disposal of the full power of the language.

With all due respect, I don’t understand what your aim is with this discussion, and at this point I think I’m more confused than when we started. What is your aim here?

I suppose to some degree, everything is debatable. But this point isn’t somewhere where we’re going to find common ground. Another commenter said it well — with HTML, you get what you write. It’s not a programming language.

In any case, I appreciate you taking the time to expand on your reasoning. I’m just still struggling to make heads or tails of it.

Tell HN: Heroku 2FA Scam
I went to login to my heroku account, it wont let me login without 2fa. I was then told to download salesforce authenticator. It cost $49 dollars a month, you are given a 3 day trial but unless you pay them you will not be able to access your heroku account after that.

This is far past a dark pattern this is a literal scam in my opinon because NONE of the other login 2fa methods even work.

Note: Previously, there was an option to skip this and login but that option has been removed, thus forcing the 2fa option.
Imo you should do both. Comments + external doc.
The joy and burden of maintaining an open-source project involves the influx of issues and pull requests, constant improvement, dealing with demanding users, and the importance of providing a minimal reproducible example to reduce time and effort for both maintainers and users, but despite the challenges, it is a rewarding experience that fosters a sense of community and collaboration.
Most programmers I’ve worked with can write some code within minutes of a discussion but stall when they’re asked to comment or to vocalise what they’re doing and why. They believe the reason is that they are working at such an abstract level that it’s not easy to put into words until some higher-level concepts have been coded. Of course, at that stage, comments are not added either. Discussing the code for commenting at this stage often elicits a response which results in throwaway comments or another writer’s block. Everyone loses.

My personal solution has been to approach code documentation as programming in one’s native language, or as is often done, in English. Learning to comment is given the same importance as learning to code. Comment maintenance is given the same priority as code maintenance. Explaining the actual function and expectations by comment is the essential part of writing code that expresses the functionality.

Comments are given similar weight as code. Comment design is considered at an early stage. And comment maintenance is equally as important as code maintenance.

Why do we talk about coding rockstars but don’t we talk about commenting rockstars? This isn’t anti-agile or anti any methodology if it’s presented as an integral and essential part of the task.

Often, when mentoring such processes, the act of commenting liberates insights that may have only appeared during failed product testing.

Of course, learning to comment effectively is learning to communicate effectively. Metrics for effectiveness are often elusive and people are rarely paid for lines-of-comments, so this is always a hard sell, unless it’s understandable to be a core coding activity.

We see the same thing in related areas, like logging. Unless you need to solve a problem with the help of accurate logging data, you don’t see the need or utility of logging anything. As with comments and code, logging also needs consideration and maintenance.

These mantra won’t come from above, so need to be learned and understood.
See my second-to-last paragraph.

If you want a better life, find a specific and achievable way in which it can be better, and work towards that. Quite possibly involving a labor union.

But don't moan poetically about how it's such a shame having to work for your living.
I think you're right that lack of freedom (or perceived lack of it) is at the root of the "how dare he" reaction. But I'm convinced that pg was always this way. It's a big mistake to think "he's free because he's well off". No; he's well off because, for whatever reason, he behaves as if he's free. I don't think pg was always "in pg's position". I bet if we had known him at 10 he would have been the same way.

The important question is to figure out what one needs to do to become free (i.e. to feel free) oneself. How do you get from your initial conditions to that state? I've basically devoted my life, so far, to that question and I'm still at it.

Except the above commenter shows absolutely no signs of striving, they're just complaining on a very abstract level how wrong it all is.
Studies have shown (take this with a grain of salt because I heard this from a podcast), that dividend stocks and non-dividend stocks have roughly equal returns in the end, with dividend stocks faring slightly worse.

This is because dividend stocks tend to appreciate less.

So taking $X in dividends every six months ends up being the same as selling $X of your portfolio every six months in the end.
Istio Architecture for Kubernetes: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

> A kid who doesn't sped 4-6 hours a day on a phone ...

Amen.

You need to compromise. What I do:

- No TV at all (except on holidays then they can watch as long as they want), without TV it is easier

- When coming home we all, parents included, don't use technology for 10 minutes, this is like a time-out, sometimes the children started to play and don't need technology

- Sometimes don't use technology the whole time, for example when going away, the parents also leave their cell phones at home

- Sometimes let the children be bored, boredom is sometimes a great source of creativity

- Sometimes let them use technology as long as they want so that they learn to feel what this means

- Friendly ask them what they are doing

- One-click buy or similar things are a way to lose money

- Try to create incentives, like: you can stay at home alone, but today nobody is using any technology, you can read books or go with us

- Be sincere, open and friendly and admit that you yourself are fallible, alway try to discuss and find a common understanding

- Try to influence, like gaming is better than watching Youtube, some Youtube channels are better than others, and so on

The idea is: Sooner or later your children will have contact with the manipulative virtual world outside. You can't avoid it. Try to steer somewhat, but you will sometimes fail. Accept your failings. Stay relaxed. Be authentic.

Good luck!

I think it relates to sparsity. Rarely a fully connected network is better, they need more data to train and have less inductive bias.
> The money one spends circulates in the economy much longer and reaches more actors until it eventually falls back into original pocket.

that's a total assumption being made. Who knows how the money from an office worker's commute gets dispersed. It's likely too difficult to track exactly. And it's irrelevant to the person how this dispersion happens or why.

All they need to care about is that they've eliminated a source of inefficiency, and thus have extra money for either investment or different consumption.

Thanks a lot, this is really useful feedback. I completely agree the landing page branding needs some work. I've recently done some workshops to get some clarity on target audience and will try to tighten this up.

Currently the app is light on features so indeed it does not differentiate well, but we will build out a retrospective flow which is unique and helps users find actionable insights from past entries, and explore their best ideas on specific topics over time.
Yes, it's a brave "new" world. It's surprisingly hard to build this stuff, even with tree-sitter, though!
Sure it is, relatively. Software is used in all kinds of industries, not just ad-tech. There's no shortage of jobs in software, though the super-high-paying FAANG jobs are diminishing.

If you work in chip design for Intel, this just isn't the case; there's only a few places you can go.

Estimating iron ore grade on the fly as recently blasted ore beds are dumped through a load out into train carriages for transport to ocean side processing (further crushing, screening, fine grading and blending) and loading onto shipping.

The alternatives are to find something else that can be "shone" like a flashlight through raw iron ore, and | or for the world to consume less steel.
"it's more considerate to write simply. When you write in a fancy way to impress people"

"When I write a sentence that seems too complicated, or that uses unnecessarily intellectual words, it doesn't seem fancy to me. It seems clumsy."

So apparently the dimensions are writing simply ⮂ writing fancy, which actually gets reduced to writing simply ⮂ writing clumsy. This implies that any writing which is not clumsy is written simply, therefore the best samples of simply writing is something akin to Wittgenstein's Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus, Heidegger's Being and Time, or Kant's Critique of Pure Reason, for they are the pinnacle of non-clumsy word strings, no sign in those texts is extraneous, however they also are the pinnacle of extremely dense ideas, requiring multiple library shelves to be understood. Something does not follow.

Although, granted, if Kant indeed gave us a specification for artificial intelligence [1] in the form of a post-medieval, transitory Latin to German compendium, a vade mecum if you will, 150+ years prior to the invention of the Turing machine, well, I suppose he couldn't write simply-er than he did.

I have read the “must have had been being” over and over again and as a native English speaker, I still can’t understand what it means. I hesitate to call it ungrammatical, but instead throw down a challenge: can you actually use it?
I also would love to know how it was able to do it. I tried implemented something similar for an application, but I wasn't able to tunnel only selected application in the end I use a SOCKS proxy and manually configured the application that I wanted to use it, but it would love a less "hacky" way to do it (not all app support SOCKS proxy).
Which aleady suggests one thing the previous poster could actually do instead of whining: look for way to emigrate to Germany.
Curtis Yarvin built an entire writing career doing the opposite of this advice, too. Same for David Foster Wallace. Many others.
Ok, first of all, even if you are right, you need to not reply to people like that. It was bad enough already when you tried to teach me about BSD and how files work, but then for whatever reason you decided to go back and add to it and make it even more condescending and personal. That's definitely unacceptable here, and I doubt it is celebrated elsewhere on the Internet, either.

Second, and perhaps more awkward, is you're actually still wrong. I didn't assume that what you claimed couldn't be done because I didn't know how to do it, but because of, for example, the fact that I was actually at Apple when this change was rolled out, or that I've gone through the processes in the article you linked enough times to know how they work.

Anyways, turning off SIP does let you just go rm everything you want. That used to be the case, until Catalina, but it isn't anymore. In macOS Catalina those files were on a separate mount that was read-only, but with SIP disabled you could remount it as read/write and then work with it as usual. In Big Sur the entire volume has been turned into a signed APFS snapshot that you cannot modify, period. Even if you pull off hacks to patch it the system will panic on the next boot (as several iOS jailbreaks have found out the hard way). What you can do on macOS is shut down the computer, boot into recovery, disable signature verification, and from there create an entirely new snapshot with the modifications you like. With just SIP disabled and root permissions you can't do this, and even if you go through the process I described it's irrelevant whether macOS is a BSD or apps are in bundles because you're literally constructing a new copy of a APFS volume with the contents you want.
This is really fun and really smart. I feel like I became a better thinker just through playing. Incredible
It would go the SAAS route if enough people find it useful; if there are consistent users I can't afford to make it free forever unfortunately

I'm quite sure if Ukraine had access to F-35 or F-22 there would be stipulations that those would be used the same way. Countries try to be very careful about not giving opponents information about the latest high end gear.

This is nothing new, BTW. During WWII the UK forbade the new Gloster Meteor jet fighter from flying over Nazi occupied territory, for fear that the Germans might learn something valuable from a crashed jet. It was only in the last few months of the war that the Meteors were allowed to fly over enemy territory, as by then the outcome was abundantly clear and even if a jet was shot down the Germans wouldn't have time to do anything with the information.
