This thinking is why most SPAs are utter shit for the end user. Most developers are so happy about their ergonomics and how cool their tools are and don’t care at all the application uses 200M on your browser and every key stroke takes 200ms to show in an input.

This also happens in the backend, but the difference is that the company país the price in the form of more infrastructure. But in the frontend is “free” so why care at all, right?
Yup, if I use a software that looks like a shareware site from the early 2000s, I use it knowing it's been reliable for a long long time.
How are you supposed to use two plugins providing the same functionality? Are you gonna compare them and then uninstall one of them? Do they differ?

As far as I can tell, it seems like you just wanted to plug your own plugin, but I'm happy if I'm wrong. I just to understand how you can use two plugins that provide the same functionality and why you would do that.
A side tangent, it would be really cool if they brought the Jeeves character back somehow. I always loved that goofy yet classy little dude.
Not sure what he's referring to, but during his tenure he decided to "shake things up" and laid people off almost-Elon-Musk-style. He basically had a target in terms of Dollars, and he asked HR to come up with metrics to hit the target. They laid off everyone who had had a bad review the prior year. But that wasn't enough to hit the target, so they laid off everyone who had an average performance review, but low bonuses. But that didn't hit the target, so they offered voluntary severance packages to those who had not had a promotion more than N years. That, along with encouraging early retirement let them hit the target.

The layoffs happened all at once - not in phases. You had cases where a manager was suddenly told to inform his report that he is being laid off, only to then be told that the manager himself is being laid off.

As you can imagine, any time someone does a blunt top down approach like this, you lose a lot of critical people with no one in the team knowledgeable to take over.

No one saw it coming. Managers were not told in advance.

Actual measurement for most disruptions is really hard because it usually manifests in things like "Timmy was really distracting in class during the Math lesson". Quantifying that is difficult.

Capping spending ratios would also be horrific for the US specifically because we implement many of our social welfare programs for kids through the schools: school lunches, speech therapy, etc. (incidentally, this overinflates our spending on students relative to peer nations). You'd be relegating poor kids to even worse outcomes than they already face which would have some seriously negative downstream effects once they become adults.

>If the courts find out you have the data they can demand you decrypt it, and send you to prison if you do not.

If the courts decide there's anything (physical or digital) law enforcement wants/needs, you have to turn it over or face jail[0][3] and/or fines. That's nothing new. Nor is it likely to change anytime soon.

However, not being able to comply (e.g., you don't actually have such data) is a defense for contempt of court. As such, short-term retention policies and secure deletion methods would be preferred.

Perhaps also with a 'canary'[2] as well, that will delete all data if some key/setting/file isn't updated within a specific period of time. Unless one has been ordered by the court (or some law on the books to retain data), this is perfectly legal.

[0] Not prison. Contempt of court[1] means jail, not prison.

[2] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warrant_canary -- Not exactly this (as it affects the retention/deletion of personal data rather than informing others of government involvement), but a similar idea.

I think basic demographics is a large part of it.

Population of Germany:

- 1940: 70 million
- 2020: 83 million (about 20% more)

Population of the USA:

- 1940: 132 million
- 2020: 331 million (about 140% more)

Population of the world:

- 1940: 2300 million
- 2020: 7795 million (about 240% more)

So, they may have stayed equally innovative per capita, but in 1940 about 1:33 of humans were German, while in 2020, that was 1:94.

Natural Language is great for loosely defining what you want, whilst literal searches are great for finding the exact occurrence of something you know you are looking for.

I can imagine something like:

Search for the error code: "XY123", triggered by product "ABC" when I try and start it bound to port 123. I'm using version 1.0.0, and want results from the official documentation or sites of good repute. Only include solved problems, and give me references in your results.

Granted, a lot of that could be covered by special incantations in a more literal search, but that just feels far more flexible.

Note I'm trying to delineate between literal (in quotes) and Natural Language in this example if it's not clear.

Would you be kind and provide some scholarly proof for the rather modern invention?

How to Introduce Two People via Email: Sample Scripts
I do research in this area and I sort of bristle whenever an article talks about "objective measures" of some psychological phenomenon, as if the subjective experience isn't really what it's about. So the framing of this article really rubbed me the wrong way.

Having said that, I thought this was still interesting just in terms of the biochemistry and molecular biology of systems involved in anxiety.

I think the most practical utility of this might be in drug treatment planning although that tends to not work out in the real world as well as it does in theory and research.

Another angle on this kinda mentioned in various places is that people come into the clinic claiming extreme anxiety when they just want drugs to resell or abuse. But even that could get tricky because lots of times people abusing drugs also feel anxiety.

One elephant in the room with this paper is they didn't really measure anything else. So it has some predictive utility in "anxiety versus not" in a select group of people, but what if other mood state issues are also moving around with it? It's kind of like saying "hey our model predicts cats in images" in some database where you've removed all the dogs and foxes and otters and so forth and so on. Or maybe it's like having a database where all the images with cats also have a 80% chance of having a dog, fox, etc.?
I'm not quite sure where the disconnect is either, but yeah, "should I clone everywhere" or "is cloning everywhere idiomatic" is just one of those models that is useful, but like all models, is invariably wrong in some cases.

Just as one example, consider a function I wrote. It accepts a &str as a parameter. Internally, among other things, it clones that &str into a String. If you asked me whether that was "idiomatic" devoid of any other context, I would say, "probably not? Why not just ask for the String or a Into<String> instead?" But it's not a certainty. Just a likelihood.

But now let's add context. The context is that that function I mentioned is Regex::new. Does that change my answer? You bet your ass it does. Because cloning that pattern string has now turned into a definitively negligible cost. (By many orders of magnitude.) And there is upside to accepting a &str: it's non-generic, a little easier to understand and is unlikely to ever run afoul of type inference. Those aren't huge upsides, but there is actually no downside here because of the context.

As others have pointed out, there is no one-size-fits-all answer to this question. There are models though, and those models (e.g., "don't worry about cloning while you're learning Rust") are very likely to serve you quite well. That might not be every path that everyone learning Rust always takes. But it's a decent bet in my experience.
Sorry, just got around to reading all that nonsense you wrote there. I'm not sure if you have problems with comprehension or something but you seem to have misread what I wrote.
I simply asked what platform he was on as I don't actually have the same problem he seems to have. No workaround offered - simply curious as to why he was getting repeated notifications and I wasn't.

I was wrong, now it says "Not seeing what you expected here? Don't worry, your conversation data is preserved! Check back soon."
It’s true, but the platform and framework of that fight is what has kept it stable over time. That is what we inherited. It’s also very fragile, and that’s where the contemporary fight happens to preserve it. But without the framework, the fight is a unstable and degenerates quickly into a pretty gnarly state. That’s why the founders struggled so hard - their writings at the time on these very subjects are profound and helpful in framing how lucky we are, but also how typical our problems are in history.
Tell HN: Stripe raising price on international charges, keeping chargeback fees
Via email:

> Over the past few years, card networks have increased the total fees that Stripe pays for card processing. Because of these costs, starting June 1, Stripe’s additional fee for international card transactions will change from 1.0% to 1.5%. There’s no change to our standard 2.9% + $0.30 pricing for US card transactions.

> Whether you win or lose a dispute, card networks charge Stripe a fee in either case. To cover these costs, starting June 1, Stripe will no longer return the $15 dispute fee for successfully contested disputes. The dispute fee itself is not changing.
People forget that modern nation states are a very recent, post-democratic construct, and in the past, states competed for people all the time; the fact that these people spoke a different language and had a different ethnicity mattered little to a monarch who themselves might not have belonged to the ethnicity of the country they ruled.

Hence the Prussians bringing Poles to work on the farms in Silesia abandoned by Germans for the factories in the Ruhr, the Russians bringing Mennonites to settle the Volga (of course, it helped that the imperial family was German), the Austrians encouraging Serbs to exchange Ottoman for Habsburg rule, and many more such cases.

I have a smallish Protect system (UNVR, four G4 Pros, one doorbell, two G3 Instants).

The positives are that it pretty much just works. The mobile app is excellent, the web app on the UNVR is fine, and it has full spousal approval factor.

I have had very few issues with the system, primarily just the doorbell was unreliable until I upgraded the transformer and put an access point right next to it. I had an issue with the NVR right before it went out of warranty and I fixed it by replacing the internal USB drive with an SSD.

The negatives are that it's more costly than other options, Ubiquiti has had perennial stock problems over the last few years, and you're locked into their ecosystem. The NVR won't work with generic cameras and you can't run the software on your own hardware.

It's also possible that, if you have their remote access proxy set up (required for mobile app), you could be subject to the same warrant issues as with Ring.
> It's a modern (a 'temporary measure' enacted in WW1) invention to enact a passport-controlled system of travel and residency across the entire world.

I wonder if the same will happen to online travel pre-entry-authorizations.

During Covid many countries implemented pre-entry-authorizations, similar to US ESTA or Canadian ETA.

Even if the Covid emergency state has been over, some countries that didn't have this forms before, still require them for travel.

I just wanted to clarify that I wasn't criticizing elixir or functional languages (we've bet the company on Elixir/LiveView and it's paid off), but I was refuting the idea that it is harder to be sloppy in something like elixir.

My point was, sloppy programmers will be sloppy programmers. And if you are writing old school PHP where everything was a bunch of functions, it's even less of a cognitive shift to go to elixir, and you will write the same kind of sloppy code there too.

There's nothing special about elixir as a language that will prevent you from writing sloppy, unreadable code in the same style of PHP (as with other languages)

If you put the Dewey division in the URL, the directory auto-opens. e.g. here are episodes about prehistoric life (my current jumping-off point)

https://genmon.github.io/braggoscope/directory#560

There's a visual map of episodes. After principal component analysis of the episode embedding vectors, these are the most significant two components as the x,y

https://genmon.github.io/braggoscope/map.html

(it's not super useful tbh -- e.g. the Manhattan Project and the Cambrian Explosion have the same x,y... presumably because they are both about explosions?)

Many episodes have a reading list, and these are all linked to Google Books (so you can purchase/check out from a library), e.g. this episode page

https://genmon.github.io/braggoscope/2022/10/20/the-fishtetr...

There are ~4,600 books, and I have ~88% coverage on getting a Google Books page from the original data. Any ideas about what to do with this big list of academic-recommended books v welcome!
It's interesting that you choose to make up a story without any anecdotes of someone claiming to be trans to harass women, versus the states and districts passing 'gender inspection' bills legalizing harassment by people that have no right to know/care.

It opens the space for less well adapted creatures to evolve into and adapt. For a short time (on an evolutionary timescale) you get a much larger variety of adaptation strategies until the best ones win out.

Unless humanity completely erases life on earth I'm sure it'll bounce back. There's still time ahead, although not as much as there was behind. However, I'd rather we destroyed less and restored more, at least in my lifetime, so we could enjoy its existence.
>entitled to change a municpal culture simply because you got older

I get what you probably meant, but this is a really strong statement. Our town is struggling with spiraling property taxes and it is forcing long-term residents out. I really feel for older people who've had decades of a social circle, have people to help them with things they can no longer do, etc. You can't move somewhere else and replicate that.
Almost all of the complaints in the linked document boil down to "PDFs are not websites," which is ironic, considering that is the main benefit to PDFs.

A bunch of them are just dumb assumptions, like vague complaints about accessibility, ignoring the fact that PDFs have supported screen readers, alt text, etc for longer than the web has.

I laughed out loud at the assertion that PDFs are "stuffed with fluff" and the web is a model of focused, concise writing.

"Jarring user experience" and "Cause disorientation" are the same complaint rewritten to highlight different aspects of one problem.

Web sites and PDFs are different tools serving different needs. The complaint that PDF content is "static" is, confoundingly, both untrue and entirely the point. PDFs have support Javascript, media embeds, advanced navigation tools (hyperlinks, cross-refs), and more, for years and years... but most people don't encounter much beyond formfills and hyperlinks, because the rest of that stuff is not what people want out of a document format.

In other words, all the consultants can write all the words about how PDF should be the web, but the market has spoken, and PDFs are the way they are because they meet real needs. Figuring out what those are might be a better use of time than shouting into the wind.

Now that I think about it, why should I have to throw away thirty years of PDF-compatible software because nobody bothered to make a decent PDF reader for your phone?
It's absolutely possible. No idea about a proof of concept, but I don't even think it matters, honestly.

It's cute that the OS might play some tricks to hide them from you, but at the end of the day, that's all it is doing, is hiding. Security by obscurity.

If you have root, you have access to the files, period. Someone determined enough could search, read and write to the disk directly, bypassing the filesystem.

> The people with industry experience

This is at the heart of the problem. You get these revolving doors between eg big positions at the FDA and big pharma staffed by the same individuals at different times in their careers, same with eg Wall St vs SEC. This extends to lobby group positions. One day Fred is the head of the FDA the next day he’s lobbying the FDA for Pfizer. This should be illegal.

They mask the corruption this causes by saying “Hey we need someone with industry/regulatory experience” with no acknowledgement of the massive ($$) conflicts of interest inherent in that strategy.
