Yeah, a lot of people went to wars for the loot. Especially if there was a chance of sacking a wealthy city. For example, the sack of Constantinople by the 4th Crusade has made many people wealthy - there was a lot of gold and other valueables to steal from churches, public buildings and palaces of the rich.
It's a tough call. Tinder made me anxious and depressed but it was also more effective than my alternatives for meeting people. While being single didn't lead to such acute mental health issues it did fill me with a low level sense of depression. So I treated Tinder as a necessary short term pain to achieve longer term well being.

My advice to those starting their dating app journey would be to time box your usage; give yourself at most a few months a year on the app. Uninstall in between those periods and let the dating pool recharge while you invest in yourself.
Is that actually a decent answer, though, or does it just give the impression of one at first glance? The only truthful feature AFAIK is "priority access"; ad-free chatting, longer conversation sessions, and "customized responses" (whatever that's supposed to mean) appear to be confabulations.
There obviously wouldn't a legal option in this particular scenario. Though it would obviously be doable. The entire point of this is that the prescriptions are all presumed to be illegal, as the ultimate goal is preventing the state from legally seizing assets.

The idea that a monero wallet would be perpetually legal is laughable under a scenario where the state starts seizing assets.
I assume that if questioners kept at it for a few more rounds, we might finally get to the point where you include the trillions handed to Wall Street via corporate bailouts, QE, and artificially low interest rates - continuing the policy that's been going on for decades? It's appalling how economic critiques always tend to be aimed at the smallest actors on the realpolitik checkers board, while the big grift carries on generally unimpeded. I'm a firm believer in Austrian economics, but with no political representation beyond "fiscal responsibility" kayfabe from the Rethuglicans, Modern Monetary Theory is looking like the best path forward. If we're going to insist on overwhelming monetary creation to wipe out the strong deflationary force of technology, it might as well get purposefully spent on productive endeavors rather than continually dumped into Potemkin financial markets.
Yes this is true. I really struggle to find balance with this one.

On one hand demanding to be treated as if they are representing views in good faith when they are not is one of the most effective and exhausting strategies of the far right, libertarians included. So I try to identify it and refuse to.

But on the other hand yes, surely a lot of self-identified libertarians "on the ground" are being honest about their understanding and motivations, and it's shitty to dismiss their positions as disingenuous when they aren't.

I doubt it's possible to always get it right, and I'm not comfortable choosing one of those two errors to make exclusively. So I do my best and ask for forgiveness when I get it wrong.
> there's an economic vacuum that causes large companies to exist

The size of these vacuums is a direct result of policy. Tax policy, liability policy, antitrust policy -- there are a dozen levers we could pull to create a corporate landscape that looks very different. But yes, with the levers in their current positions, what we see here is inevitable.

I now no longer believe the human brain is capable of withstanding its effects.

This article is the classic "millennials are sad because they have unrealistically high expectations" drivel that I thought we had buried for good. Even for 2013 it seems pretty trashy. Lucy doesn't think she's unusually wonderful, and to assume so is completely unfair to Lucy. Lucy was told over and over and over that all she needed to do was go to college and work hard at anything somewhat respectable, and financial stability and personal comfort would follow. She only ever wanted a decent liberal arts education, and after that a decent career. You know who fed her that BS? Her delusional parents.

Yes, it's easy to get unrealistic expectations from social media. But that's not the point of the article, for anyone tempted to click and read.

I'm a father of a non-verbal autistic son. We have chosen a non-traditional path for him to avoid bullying and he is generally doing quite well (and slowly becoming a bit more verbal). It helps that he has siblings that love him as he is.

Our kids have a mix of private schooling, tutoring, and homeschooling. They spend a lot of time outdoors and have very limited access to screens and no social media. We chose this path because the typical classroom has 25-30 barbarians and 1 civilized person, if you're lucky.

Most social media appears completely overrun by highly tribal barbarians.

YMMV, but the thing that seems to work in my house (mid teen girl) is to actively be engaged with her social life and have the meta (not Meta) conversation about social media impact with her regularly. She will have to learn to deal with her reality and live with it on her own, but helping her have a set of tools to describe and analyze it is beneficial. Tools like being aware of how much time she spends on it, how other people are affected by it, how apps affect your behavior, etc. But it all starts with engaging as a parent with her on her level, not forcing her to be an adult with a fully formed executive function capacity.
I had a Beddit which was a device made by a company that Apple bought. I find the sleep tracking and general activity tracking at least vaguely interesting. Though if I have a bad night's sleep I know it--sometimes better than the Watch indicates. But the more we can track things and be aware of those things changing, the better I guess. With the Ultra's battery life I have found using the Apple Watch most days and nights a more matter of habit experience.
> What's better for the economy, a retiree boomer working as a walmart greater, or one that spends their savings in Florida.

The economy serves the people. That is its purpose: to make everyone's life better.

To do that the economy needs to actually produce and provide something. People not doing any actual work and instead just competing for limited economic output is not helpful.

So yeah: Boomers actually working would be better for everyone. Them just spending money and merely competing for resources is detrimental to everyone else.

> Unfortunately, you probably would have an adverse selection process. Anyone who can (or thinks they can) easily land a job will be F this crap. And the truly desperate will jump through the hoops.

I usually think that's the case when adding barriers, but I think it's also the case that the best devs aren't usually shotgunning résumés anyway, so if they really want to apply, it's not that big a deal.

Personally, I'd find "mail your résumé, with [name of role] on the envelope" less onerous than filling out the same fucking work-history shit that's already on my résumé on yet another form... for the dozenth time in a day. Hell, I bet I can have Kinkos or something do it for me for a couple bucks—print this PDF, mail it—if I don't want to do it myself.

It'd be less off-putting than "do this automatically-graded l33tcode exercise before we even look at your application", certainly. I'd actually find it encouraging that a human's likely to be the first one to see the document, without any gate-keeping in front of that, and knowing that the volume's likely to be much lower than all-online processes, so I'm less likely to just get lost in the pile.

Meanwhile, I think the desperate might skip it in the name of pursuing volume. Differs too much from normal procedures.

But, I might be wrong.

It's unfair to blame #metoo, but it isn't unfair to blame a modern version of PC that expresses itself as puritanism. This is the least sex-having generation of all time. They're afraid that saying the wrong thing to each other is genocide or rape, especially the wrong sexual thing.
This is exactly right. And even in many many cases where they have been shown to know they were actually violating it they have immunity too.

Ask HN: How do you collaborate on legal documents?
I'm a product manager for a web service and I have to work a lot with people from legal to write TnC, data privacy, etc.

Of course, legal likes to work with Word documents, but those can't really be used online. Right now, I've to convert the word documents to markdown and forward them to the devs, but conversion most of the times does not work properly and manual work is necessary all the time.

Did anyone already find a good way to handle those kinds of documents, so that legal can work as they are used to, but at the end we're getting sth. that can be used on the web?

Of course, showing a PDF would be an option, but it just doesn't look nice/integrated.

We have pet chickens and get a half dozen a day even now in the dead of winter. We got eggs coming out our ears. We give them freely to friends and neighbors, but there's no way for us to share our bounty any further, really. We can go to a flea market or sit beside the road with a sign "Eggs $3/dz" but few people want to buy eggs in such a context.

There's a local Farmer's Co-Op, in theory they could pay people for eggs brought in and sell them to the public and that might make economic sense; but i can't imagine the liabilities and legal hurdles actually making something likethat happen would incur. Significant im sure.
> Approaching girls in public has high social consequences.

My read on it is that, like cold calling and door-to-door sales, this is a skill. You can be naturally good at it, you can develop it, or you can be self-aware that you suck at it and do something else.

As someone who has met all his partners in places other than bars/tinder and without any dramatic public approaches like what you're describing I would say that it's important to keep in mind that there are plenty of ways you will meet people. Obsessing over the ways that you won't meet people is counterproductive.

In fact it makes little sense to talk about time before the big bang, because inside a singularity time moves infinitely slow. So the point is that, yes, the universe never really started because time didn't exist before the singularity. The universe only evolved to a different dimension, so to speak, and time as we know started to exist when the big bang occurred.

Bars were not a good place to find dates decades ago either. That’s more of a tired movie trope.

The bigger issue is that people just don’t seem to get out and do things as much as they did in the time before we all had unlimited entertainment options at our fingertips from the comfort of home. As soon as you do break the cycle and start doing activities in the real world, you discover that there are a lot of interesting people just a few degrees outside of your friend groups and activities.
Ah, I thought the OP was referencing the article, yea the vitriol in the comments went to 100 real quick, surprised to not see a dang message already

You're not. You're just the only one who has refused to provide evidence for your claims.

The root comment provided evidence for a 2:1 hiring advantage for women in STEM fields. And of course there was the fine article itself...

So there's evidence. There's tons more.

You have provided: zero, zip, nada, zilch.

> interested in learning about ... learning experience

You are making several incorrect assumptions. The first is that the people you are talking to are not aware of the evidence. They are. It is you who is not aware of the evidence, despite it being quoted here (see above).

The second incorrect assumption you are making is that your position is obviously correct and does not need to be supported by evidence, but rather that it is simply a matter of the other side being "educated".

This is also not correct, and you are not in that position. You are making a claim, you don't get to adjudicate that your claim is obviously correct and the only remaining work is for others to inform themselves as to the obvious correctness of your claim.

Have a good one.

HN falls under work for me (in the sense that I learn things, I have a company that employs engineers so there's a networking element etc) but point taken. I guess I don't think about it as much because it's significantly less problematic than say Instagram and at least I learn things here.

What, like Morlocks and Eloi? I suppose it's an interesting idea to contemplate, but planning to avoid it is a textbook example of premature optimization.

We sent out a Brady notice on this recently. It appears that one or more major sources of poppy seed imports are contaminated with poppy latex, possibly due to improper washing during the harvest and processing of the seeds. Some brands are more susceptible than others.

Important to note this isn't a false positive (i.e., not a problem with lab procedures). I don't know the medical side of this, but at least some of the toxicologists I spoke with were concerned that, at sufficient quantities, affected individuals could experience adverse health events based on consumption of the contaminated poppy seeds.

(Also: the DoD reporting cutoff for codeine was already significantly higher than the industry standard, to try to eliminate or minimize the possibility of this happening.)
They could rule against personalised recommendations whilst protecting recommendations where everyone sees the same thing, but logically it seems more likely they'd do the opposite (more reasonable to consider a single centralised top stories system consistently highlighting content to all its users a reflection of a "publisher" preference than an algorithm which highlights content based on each individual user's activity and filters the individual user may have set, moderators tend to manually intervene to influence the former more, and of course it's less reasonable to demand that all potentially libellous content is screened from procedurally generated individual user links than from a "top stories" list or home page.)

I think most of us would notice the difference if HN was allowed only to rank comments only in chronological order, never mind if for liability reasons the stories permitted to appear in order of upvotes on HN were restricted to the ones Dang was satisfied weren't libellous, or possibly none at all if YC decided it wasn't worth the risk
