Under "Why don't the sum of my individual donations total to the amount I've donated?" you list stripe processing fees as #1...

So no, if you're taking a minimum of 5%, then any reasonable person is going to assume that you've already deducted the processing fees, not covering them out of that 5%.

I don't think you're being open and honest here.

Ukranian protesters had support from half of parliament, several independent oligarchs and even some part of government. Also they had logistic support from political organizations and also international support.

In Russia opposition has no allies in establishment, there are no independent oligarchs in the country, political organizations are destroyed and any Russian national by default has zero sympathy from the West now (frankly speaking even if one had a substantial support, it would be damaging for his political reputation in the country).
There are no public institutions left in Russia that opposition can rely on, every activist is essentially alone against government machine.
Can you jailbreak my bot SafeGPT? Win $500 for the most impressive jailbreak
The difference being that this service has real tangible costs such as card fees for every transaction. That's not really comparable with "it would be nice to be paid for my time" when pushing your code to GitHub. I haven't used the site but it seems reasonable that one solution won't apply to all kinds of projects.
> people put it in designated recycling bins out of free will and then scavengers come to pull the worthy items out of those bins to get paid.

That's not a problem from the pov of people putting them in the bins. Their concern was that batteries make it to a recycler, not that money is saved.

Overall, I feel like people think way too much about money, money changing hands is often worthless as an indicator of actual impact.
What a wonderful story and a great family. Congratulations!

You inspired me to ask GPT to do it the other way around. I asked it to invent a successor to Esperanto, with influences from Slavic, Germanic, and Latin languages. It called its language Euroglossa and wrote a short story in it. Who can understand it?

Un tag, en froliko vilaž, un jun chico namen Tomas trovat un misterioz mapo v star bibliotek. Na mapo, skribet: "Skarb de Tri Montes." Tomas decidet da sledit la mapo in aventuro, sperante da otkriti grand skarb.

Tomas paket svoi rukzak s neobkhodim stvari, inkluziv kompas, binaukli, i nutrimento. Nachet svoi putovanje, iz vilaž, do la Tri Montes. Po nekoliko dni, on prishel k bazen na pervoj monte. Tam, on otkril zagadka, ki je klyuch za dalsi koraki: "Kogda solntse küsst la luna, dvigat kamen i vstretit un oko."

Tomas wartet geduldig bis la sonne küsst la luna in noktchielo. Kvando moment venit, er raskt dvigat un gros stein u otkryvajet secret passaž. Ingressante, on sledit un dunkel tunel, portant un torča por iluminar svoi put. La tunel führt tief in monte, bis Tomas entdeckt un hider kammer s ančient skulpturen i un glänzend tresor.

V la hider kammer, Tomas najde un skarbnica poln von stran objekte, inkluziv un animat statuo von un banane, ki parlat und tanzt. Zaskočen, ale smejšeći, Tomas realisat ke la glänzend tresor je ver la amikeco i rado ke li povas dividi kon svoi vilaž. La legenda "Skarb de Tri Montes" je veritabile un symbol za unite de diversa kulturi i lingvoj en un mondo plen da froliko i humor.
Drop the “over a network with unknown latency characteristics” - it’s cleaner
Great comment and we see the same tension in many other collaborative areas. When designing software interfaces we deliberately use wireframes to prevent people from trying to add detail prematurely.

But the place that bothers me the most is when writing papers. I can't find an approach that works well for all teams, or even for myself working alone - do I write the experiments and results first, or do I try to shape the overall message first, ...

Agile has nothing to do with it. That just sounds like lack of general vision and direction. Or complete misunderstanding of Agile. "We have only two weeks, so we can't undertake anything big that spans multiple sprints!"
Tell them it is risk management; funding OSS ensures that projects you depend on will exist as OSS into the future and hopefully have less bugs and security problems.

For example:

This isn't true. Most "content" created is not fincancially rewarded at all.
Agreed. I'm an atheist and a science enthusiast. Also, technically, a Philosopher since I have a degree in Philosophy. I find Dawkins' writing sloppy, lazy, arrogant and ignorant. He's a poor advertisement for the world of science.
> you generally do not pivot

I'm just going to grab this tiny part and focus on it. I've seen Agile fail many times for this exact reason. In start-up land, one might pivot and massively change an end goal. In corporate land that's a lot less off a thing.

I've worked on some big projects in government and fortune 500, all of them pretended to be Agile and all of them had predefined scopes, deadlines and budgets. In all of those projects, Agile was more of a disturbing factor than anything else. The only flexible part was the scope of work, because of renewed insights or lack of specification while planning. This always ends with teams getting pressured to make deadlines (because those are never flexible), so they cut corners and work extra long hours.

I think it would be much better for these types of projects (and the sanity of devs) not to pretend to be doing Agile, but just admit they want a more Prince2 led Waterfall approach. This won't happen though, because that puts the pressure with management in stead of the dev teams.
I 100% agree that the move to etcupdate should have been documented better. I also ended up in situations when I had to manually fix systems after upgrading.
They could break out the transactions explicitly. That would help reduce the feeling that they're taking more than their share, if they're not doing that.
VoxReply – Use Your Voice to Craft Faster Email Replies, by Findly.ai
Hey Hacker News! We're super excited to share our latest side project with you - VoxReply. It's an email writing assistant that lets you record your voice and writes the email for you using the powerful GPT-4 language model. Plus, you can paste the email you're replying to for better context (optional).

Speak in 50+ languages & choose the tone of the reply
With VoxReply, you can record your email in 50+ languages and request that the reply be written in any of these languages. Customize the tone of your response between formal, informal, and business-friendly.

Why we built it:

We were building voice recognition capabilities for Findly.ai (ChatGPT for your Data Warehouse) and thought this was a cool idea.

Email-anxiety relief: We believe it could help people who struggle with email anxiety by providing a simple, intuitive way to draft emails.

Leveling the playing field: Email communication can be challenging for some, especially those with lower levels of education. Voice2Email can assist in creating well-structured emails, making communication more accessible.

Inclusive design: We believe it has the potential to help people with certain disabilities, and we've made the website accessible to those with visual impairments.

We'd love to hear your thoughts and feedback! Try VoxReply now, and let us know what you think!

If a social network has no ability for moderation of any sort, it's gonna be DOA.

The issue with being unmoderatable is that it means that you will wind up with a network dominated by the worst people. In general, people don't like to hang out on a website with literal (or euphemistic) nazis. If there isn't a way to prevent people from having to deal with that, they're not going to go to your site/service.

Sure, mastodon is moderated on a per-instance basis, but you can always just move instances. If you consistently cannot find an instance that lets you stay, that's likely more of a indictment of you then mastodon.
> In general, the goal is to quantify an individual's mental potential, which might be understood as their processor speed, amount of RAM in their brain, pre-programmed learning algorithm, and so forth.

If this is the goal, and we want to measure specific physical capabilities we know exist, why do we do it entirely by having people sit down and take tests and not by measuring their brain directly?

(It's because we don't know what the specific physical capabilities are, which is why we're pretending a descriptive statistic is causative.)
We have our own test suite (orginally derived from the test suite of Meta's Yoga layout library [0]) which consists of text fixtures that are small HTML snippets [1] and a test harness [2] that turns those into runnable tests, utilising headless chrome both to parse the HTML and to generate the assertions based on the layout that Chrome renders (so we are effectively comparing our implementation against Chrome). We currently have 686 generated tests (covering both Flexbox and CSS Grid).

We would like to run the Web Platform Test suite [3] against Taffy, however these are not in a standard format and many of the tests require JavaScript so we are not currently able to do that.

In general I think they do. The reason that these types of threads work, is that employees create a stink internally which results in issues being resolved.

TGIFs would often shed light on such policies and issues which resulted in behaviour changes. No idea if that's still the case though.

One thing I do have insight to from working at multiple companies is that for every error in applying policies there are often 10s or 100s of individuals trying the scam or abuse the same policies for their own gain. The amount of attempted fraud for non-profit / charity programs is eye opening. :/

Haven't had issues with etcupdate(8) on 14-CURRENT recently. Earlier each time I'd get "Conflicts remain from previous update, aborting" or some warning about inability to remove non-empty directory followed by "Old directories removed".
I think lots of people want some moderation, which Nostr makes impossible.

Sure, I don't like Elon running it, but I'd like somebody keeping the Nazis out. With Mastodon, you can pick a server that fits your moderation preferences.

It also doesn't help that the current Nostr audience is a very cryptocurrency-focused crowd, which a lot of people (myself included) find yucky.
i don’t think this is true at all—-i’ve seen many many many discussions here circling the dangers of charging on unknown devices. we’ve had numerous discussions on usb condoms. we’ve known this was a thing for years… we’ve had discussions on variations of this at defcon years before you could buy chipped cables from sites like hak5..

i’m not sure why you would imply “everyone” here ever denied this was a thing, but it just isn’t true.

Java has had a nice focus on "decluttering" improvements lately; I think it's a nice focus to have (if done carefully), as 'verbosity' has always been one of the supposed pain points of java. I would welcome this JEP in this light.

I see this as great for developers already familiar with the language in making code more streamlined. But it's along a similar vein to, say, "anonymous classes can be expressed as lambdas which can in turn be expressed as method references". Or, say, the 'var' keyword as a way to automatically infer the variable type and how memory will be allocated for it, on the basis of the applied constructor. In both cases, the last step may be a nice, simple-looking expression, but it hides a lot of underlying complexity and context, which you need to understand properly to use it effectively.

So the part I 'object' to in the wording of the JEP is the educational intent/strategy implied in the summary. For me there is a big difference between something like "introduce complex idea A at a higher level because simpler idea B depends on it", vs "obfuscate the true nature of A to pretend B can be understood in isolation, and deal with the resulting confusion later". Learning works by creating basic blocks of understanding, consolidating them, and then using them to build more complex blocks later on. Relying on a faulty foundation, hoping to come back and re-build it later on is generally not the best educational strategy (in my humble view).

So from an educational point of view, for me this does not make my job simpler. If I wanted my students to build a solid foundation of understanding, I would have to first explain what classes are, what static methods are, how methods can NOT in fact live outside a class in java, and only THEN explain that "to make things less verbose, in this VERY specific case, java allows you some syntactic-sugar to hide some of that complexity under a simpler-looking syntax, that would otherwise look weird in standard java".

But yes, having said all that, this seems like a nice proposal for the language more generally, that could lead to further similar improvements down the line, and I would be in favour of it! Great work!
Yes. That is a thing that can be done, here’s Stripe’s documentation on how to set up a Direct Debit mandate: https://stripe.com/docs/payments/payment-methods/bacs-debit?...

The thing that’s being missed here is that direct debits can be disputed in the same way a credit card payment can, and by default the customer wins. Their money will be refunded immediately by the bank, who will then go after you to get it back.
They don’t require slamming at all. Just pull them closed. It’s really very easy. Follow through.

> It's normally deducted directly by the employer regardless of the salary

That's why paying cash "in envelope" is a common practice in SMB. "Grey salary" as it's called there: minimal wage level part is payed officially, rest is not.

> People who don't pay utilities eventually get disconnected from electricity/gas etc.

That's more of exception than a rule. Huge debts for utilities (for 1 year of consumption or even more) are quite common. As also practice of "shame lists" in apartment lobbies with apartment numbers and sums of debt.
Well, that's the whole point of the article you're replying to! His whole problem is that AI will do those jobs and he doesn't like that.

They were in some, but not all cases. Turning them out into the streets to rot in the gutter while they spiral out in their insanity is certainly morally more convenient, but not, IMO, superior to attempting to build an infrastructure that provides treatment and long term care for people suffering so deeply as this. Freedom that’s a living hell isn’t freedom, it’s just freedom from responsibility for caring.

A lot of seriously mentally ill folks burn their family care due to the extreme burden it places on them, and the fact a lot of mania and schizophrenia accompanies a willful belief in their own sanity and autonomy, and a lack of personal knowledge of their state. This makes keeping them under care and medications extraordinarily difficult.

Prison isn’t the answer. Mental health facilities is. That’s the real alternative to letting them back into the streets. Prisons aren’t equipped to treat anyone.

Hi! Thanks for trying it out. I have reached out via email but just in case, looks like your account is configured for only first level dependencies. If you increase it to 3 levels it'll show much better results. You're also able to adjust the distribution of funds via boosting in the dependencies page.

Please note the donation will be kept in PENDING state for 5 days to allow time for full dependency analysis, adjustments via boost and/or exclusions. In this time we'll be reaching out to the other projects in your dependency tree to onboard them.

Please ping me if you need anything. Many thanks again!
But why? Why do you even care so much what other people believe?
I would use FreeBSD myself if it weren't for Void Linux. You get all the extra tools and quality of life from Linux without any bloat, and it has a minimal init system.

It's also very convenient to use if you need up to date software since it is a rolling release, but there are some things in FreeBSD which is better like reproducible builds.

Kind of like Arch Linux but without the chaos, and the community appears to be growing!

truly censorship resistant and decentralized social media platforms

Relays are like the backend servers for Nostr. They allow Nostr clients to send them messages, and they may (or may not) store those messages and broadcast those messages

if you notice that your Nostr client feels slow, it's most likely due to the relays that you're using. It might be worth adding a few more relays (or removing a few) to your client.

most people expect that paid relays will be the norm in the future.
