I don't think we disagree. I will try to restate my point more clearly.
Banking isn't life or death. It's depositors and corporations. I place the highest value on depositors. If depositors expectations aren't met the Banking industry is responsible. If the entire banking industry can't figure out amongst themselves how to meet the expectations of depositors without going bankrupt the government regulations would require the banking industry assets liquidated. The new banking industry would start with depositors made whole and what if anything if left over could be used to fund a new banking industry under new government regulations.
The results of Ipsos' Global Happiness Report [1] are drastically different, so I'd take all these reports with a grain of salt.

This is why large instances like mastodon.social are basically a bad idea–at that scale they have all the same content moderation woes as Twitter or Meta.

On a smaller instance, it's much easier for a mod to nip bad behavior in the bud—and less politically fraught, because the moderation decision doesn't have worldwide policy implications. It's the difference between being kicked out of a local coffeeshop vs arrested in the town square.

The new atomic currency and the robbers [ChatGPT]
I live in NYC and love being car free. But with two kids that within a few years will be attending two different schools the pull of car ownership gets stronger and stronger. It’s depressing, especially as there is so much the city could do to encourage bikers but never does.
Hashtags are the main way to find topics on Mastodon.
Sometimes I feel guilty about using an ad blocker on sites I like. A few times, I've felt guilty enough to turn it off for a site I use a lot and trust, only to find the page completely clogged with ads that block the UI and generally make an awful experience. At this point, I've learned my lesson.

Not to mention that malvertising is still an issue that affects even major sites. In my view, browsing the web without an ad blocker is like hooking up with strangers without using PrEP - it's just not a good idea.
My guess? His site name being haxx and curl frequently being used for exploits.

It's not like bureaucrats actually understand what curl does, but they have heard about "hacks".

When we moved to our rural community, we had visits from I'm guessing all the churches welcoming us and wanting to know if we would be joining their flock. It was awkward to explain again and again that I am an "agnostic atheist". Just like telling people in my community that I am left of center politically or telling them that I am an immigrant. (I got a lot of "Oh, well I was not talking about European immigrants")

In the end, I feel our community has embraced us. I coach a girl's field sport that now 50% of all school age girls participate in. When we "go to town" everyone knows me and calls me coach. I feel I have been able to show a small rural community that atheist, liberal, immigrants are not here to destroy America as many suspected we might. They have showed me conservatives can act with compassion and stunningly (to me at least) that many laws that make perfect sense in a city make absolutely no sense in the country.

> It's not so bad for most people.

There are a ton more people for whom it is very bad. ESTA only includes maybe 600-700 million people. There are probably 7 billion people for which it is hard to very hard to get any US visa.
By this logic isn’t HN an echo chamber or safe space? It’s heavily moderated, to the point where only certain topics are even allowed to be posted (ie community is exposed). For example I can’t post my ballet gossip on hacker news, it would be considered off topic. I could argue hacker news is an echo chamber that doesnt allow for the ballet community relevant interests.
"might be impossible depending on work or children"

I'll note that getting rid of a lot of cars would be nice for safety and pollution reasons, but many proponents underestimate how difficult the kid situation becomes, especially after having more than one. People tend to move their families to the suburbs for a reason.
I would like an AI assistant that can leverage personal/work emails(via API), texts, phonecalls, photos (friends social media posts with me tagged), movies/music I like, spotify likes, netflix likes, browser history, health data, youtube history, etc. - to train on and answer (and be able to ask it) personal questions about me. When was the last time I played softball? Use it to determine interests and hobbies (ranked list)

This may be a security and privacy nightmare. However, I do believe that Google, Microsoft and more have already begun this process. So why should we not have detailed access of all combined accounts?
It's a perfectly valid position to take that we'd all be better off if people weren't allowed to effectively pay for things with their attention. You just need to be OK with the corollary that if you can't/won't pay money for a lot of content/services/etc. you'll just have to do without. I suspect we'd see more innovative payment services but I also suspect that a lot of things would just go away and the Internet would be much more the domain of people who could afford to pay lots of money.

> - might be impossible depending on work or children;

The newer style of cargo bikes can for many families replace a car. Have two kids seated in the trunk of the bike and drop them off at kindergarten, then continue biking to work and pick them up on the way home.

Those are a bit on the pricier side, though. Still cheap compared to a car, but people often look at them as something "extravagant" or "in addition" to a car. But they can be a replacement for most car use, and then just rent a car for other more seldom occasions.

And to avoid the initial big purchase, not even sure if it's something for you, there's a startup where I live ( https://whee.no/ ) where you also can rent the bike on a monthly basis. Really recommended to see if it suits your lifestyle.

Lastly, I also think this kind of easier movement will change how people live. You can no longer expect to move out of the city and still get a short way to everything by using your car, making life miserable for everyone else (noise, danger, pollution, too much asphalt). So I think we will see a shift in where people settle, where they will no longer base their lives around owning multiple cars.

Self correction: it's not unavoidable. I'm thinking long term we need a way to trust hardware, and I see cryptography as a way to do it. Short term, I really want a charger or sd card labelled Samsung not to be made by a reputation-less, liability less, no skin in the game, anonymous copy cat. I don't want to become an art fraud detective, comparing fonts and kernel spacing, or chipsets. Chips are also sometimes fraudulently labelled.

I'm not sure about wild horses, but I have spent some time observing moose, which seem like a similar design. They don't seem to have much of a sense of purpose. So once scared into running, I don't think they would run very far before stopping to browse on some berries or nice grass.
...and that has nothing to do with knowledge and everything to do with being born in the right family.
The question is then, why should object oriented languages be taught? It seems to me that for last 25 years or so the true object orientation has been a historical curiosity that inspired polymorphism and encapsulation and only interest for people who want to argue that this and that language aren't true object oriented languages.
I spent about $125k pursuing my bachelors and masters degree in CS because my parents (who had nothing to do with my life whatsoever) made too much money, and I didn't quality for any aids or grants. It took me a decade to pay this off.

Considering guest workers usually spend almost nothing for their degrees, it seems that Americans begin their careers with a significant financial disadvantage in comparison.

Why can't people on these programs, or the employers of these people, be required to contribute to an education fund to help ensure domestic workers can compete?
Also noting on drinking and riding, in Switzerland, it's possible to lose your drivers license if caught doing it, I kinda think thats unfair and not very sensible at all as a policy.

It's great for introducing people to HTTP, I always refer inexperienced new-hires to use it since it has proven to very effective at getting them up to speed. In many ways you could say Postman offers a GUI to the protocol itself, making it something you can visually explore.

I see stuff like curl as a more advanced tool for people who already know what they are doing. In fact Postman even offers a curl "export" option that lets you see how to do whatever you have done in Postman, using curl instead. So arguably, it's also a good introduction to curl as well.

This kind of nonsense is a great ad for Apple's hardware.

The extremely very obvious solution for people who want to install whatever they want is to get an android device, and yet people bend over backwards to try to get stuff onto Apple hardware. It's like buying a shirt that famously only comes in blue and trying to figure out how to make it be red.
Completely agree for a push bike, but with an e-bike it's a different ball game.

Also in the US the max ebike power is 850W! More than enough to carry you up the steepest hills.

I'm a business consultant and surprised how Daniel missed a big opportunity here. He should start selling to big enterprises by making curl a subscription-based model. Then he could hire thousands of developers to support him so he never has to do the grunt work himself and completely focus on monetization strategy and a rewrite in nextjs. Then he could start an ad-based model in partnership with Facebook for free use to support the free tier. Daniel, if you're reading this contact me. We can make a good deal.
>The Xbox series S/X sold 20 million, the PS5 sold 30 million. Looking at these numbers, I'd say the Quest is pretty mainstream, no?

Meta spent $100 billion[0] on VR to sell 20 million Quest headsets that most people have put in the closet. That's 30 years of total Sony R&D budget, including all the Playstations, Walkmen, VCRs, DVDs, Blu Rays, cameras, sensors, TVs, speakers, headphones, and even their own VR device.

Honestly I think the best reason to use an altstore is to avoid the 30% tax that Apple and Google charge for using "their infrastructure". Both claim that users could use alternative stores and therefore charging 30% is not an abuse of a duopoly market position -- but what realistic options do they have? Samsung store?

I made a summary of your points:

1. Tell women how to live.

2. Take away personal agency.

3. Tar and feather anyone who supports gender beyond 'male' and 'female'.

4. Tell women how to live.

5. No pornography.

6. Financial incentives for large families. (Which, based on #4, also removes women from many long term careers.)

Is a thing locked behind glass truly any better than a collection of photos, videos, and 3D scans? Is there even any difference between a working unit and a broken one when you can't touch either?

Besides, if you're using something and it stops working it's much easier to find and fix the one thing that's broken than it is to repair the unit when you only touch it again twenty years later and a dozen components have degraded.

> because 'hate speech' is mostly recently made up term to stifle free speech AND, more importantly, does not exist anywhere in US constitution

Which is why dirty commie liberals like me want to get a national hate speech law passed just like other countries have.

Canada (which passed in the 1989)
Ireland (passed in 1989)
New Zeland (passed in 1993)
Germany, France, Sweden, Switzerland, Ukraine, UK, Iceland, Denmark

So I don't know your definition of recent is but it's been around for a bit. And the term "free speech absolutist" just another instance of a very deep rooted fundamental difference between red vs blue which is freedom vs liberty. It crops up all over the place: freedom from vs freedom to, equality vs equity. Both sides actually want free speech, the blue side just argues that speech is more free when it's not stifled by hate.
As this is a UK based article, I'm assuming you mean the Cambridge in England. I happen to live in Cambridge, Massachusetts and the while cyclists can be reckless, the drivers pose a 1000x greater threat to safety than cyclists.

As a tip for dealing with cyclists: continue your movement as a pedestrian: they'll go around you. Most pedestrians have headphones in/little awareness of their surroundings, and as a cyclist I always assume I'm invisible to them and to cars.

You wouldn't have to have an automatic, full-verification system. But I'd expect that for components likely to be easy targets for counterfeiting, the manufacturer's software should be able to verify it with a relatively high degree of confidence. But that doesn't seem to be the case here, according to TFA:

> The forgery was so good that the mysterious drive even managed to fool the Samsung Magician software.
This whole "act now or it will be too late", I think actually damages our chances of dealing with this.

The reason is that there is a good chance we will blow past 1.5, and this will be brought up as evidence that they are just "crying wolf".

My guess is that the "final warning" phrasing is more news media and not actual scientists. If so, the news media is doing a great disservice to humanity.
Too bad I don't like the feel of plastic on by bear feet or the look of it. Heart redwood is still available but pretty pricey.
It always makes me sad how scientists have to put on a brave face and try to tell us there's still time. Sadly, they know the most likely outcome puts us blowing past 3C by the end of the century, and 'carbon capture' isn't going to save us.

If you guys are planning to see the natural world in retirement, don't wait. Better to see it as it is now than what it will become.
As a 21 yr old, 3 years into my computer science degree, I (for the most part) agree.

If I were just following the course material I wouldn’t expect too much from what you can learn from course work.

I have even become slightly addicted to learning everything I can about building software. From reading (3 of Robert C. Martins books, and a few other popular ones from hacker news’ top 100 reads) and taking Udemy courses[0] in my free time.

I also have been working at a small teacher resource website for the past few years, to get some on the job knowledge.

Even then I still don’t feel like I’ve got the best understanding of SQL, networking or concurrency. I spent most of my time learning specific languages and practices and principles like Agile and spec docs. I’m working on building my own web app and have been creating a dev log for it[1], as well as building an arguably crappy personal website[2].

> All freespeech platforms, from 4chan to twitter, are pre-dominantly right wing.

> All censorship-based platforms, such as reddit or mastodon that has _mods_, are left wing.

This seems to be relying on popular belief rather than facts, and making a lot of assumptions in regards to why particular groups would prefer particular forums. If we're drawing spurious correlations 4chan also seems to enjoy a lot more violent and illegal pornography than say reddit - can we draw conclusions from that regarding the right as well?

> Secondly, the woke left is the same in the US as it is in Europe.

You're now defining a sub group of the left. What separates the "woke" left from the regular left. or are they all one and the same in your eyes? And if so, do you think that actually aligns with everyone who calls identifies as left?
