Nobody knows. It started in about 900AD in monasteries (because the monks were the only people technical enough to maintain and play one) and became part of church tradition a few centuries later.

And after a millenium of use, in the late 1980s to early 1990s almost all churches stopped using them.

Hmm, are you calling out the clickbait of the article? I couldn’t fully understand.
To be fair, my field was not in the sciences. Regardless, I left the tenure track due to disillusionment. I don’t presume that others had the same experience, and it is my earnest hope that most people do not.

I was heavily encouraged to give high grades for high reviews and to publish high-volume, quality be damned. I hope that my leaving had some effect on the decision makers at my particular institution. But my impression was that the issue was systemic, and I became very bitter. I thought it better to leave than to remain and further institutionalize that bitterness.
> Generally, the larger and more populous countries tend to be the most powerful and influential.

But this is obviously not true. Just look at the list of top 10 by GDP and check out how many of them are relatively small.

I mean you have to have natural resources and can’t be tiny, but it’s not like Germany and Japan are powerful because of their landmass.

I think judging countries by their size is a mistake in rationality and people shouldn’t do that. It’s only silly people who look at Greenland on a Mercator map and think that they are powerful based on size.
The beauty of the Delaware system is that there is no name to put with a corporation. It’s basically the Swiss bank account of corporation creation.

HN members are generally presumed to be familiar with standard tools for subverting paywalls (see also HN Guidelines). Or simply reading the comments thread to find such a workaround. In this case the paywall link is now at the top of the comments thread, though it was posted a few minutes after your own comment.

Commenting that you didn't read the article, then making a series of shallow and incorrect assumptions about the circumstances ... seems on the nose for shallow, dismissive snark.

Further, it violates HN's prime directive: "What Hacker News is: a place for stories that gratify intellectual curiosity and civil, substantive comments." <https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13108404>.

I really love JetBrains but I encountered a bug where my Python Notebook would randomly lose entire cells. They would appear there and you could edit but running the cell would just produce "nothing" and to my despair, reloading the project wiped random cells.

I still enjoy JetBrains and think they provide the best IDEs but serious bugs like that are concerning.
I really don't like Kakoune's model of extensibility. It's one of the reasons I switched back to Vim after using Kakoune as my main editor for several months. The configuration system is esoteric, fiddly, and (as of 4 years ago or so, when I last used it) not thoroughly documented.

I think Helix made a good choice by building in LSP support and other things that would otherwise require extensions, and by having a "you don't really need it" policy for things like panes, which you can just do with tmux. And I think Neovim made a good choice by exporting a configuration/extension API in a very standard, commonplace extension language like Lua. I disagree that Neovim's Lua API is really a different language. It's just an API; Kakoune has one too, albeit of a more esoteric sort.

Incidentally, I started using Helix a month or two ago and I've been liking it a lot. Having the language server stuff already integrated is a fantastic convenience. I could probably switch to using hx exclusively if I really wanted, even with no extension system whatsoever. The only thing I want that they haven't implemented yet is easymotion jumps, and there's an MR for that already [0].

Very clearly put!
The actual post mentions the following:

> We’ve designed our telemetry system to collect data on “events”. An event is essentially an action, like: Finishing our in-app onboarding, Unlocking 1Password, Creating a new item, Filling an item in a website or app.

> We won’t be collecting your saved passwords, passkeys, usernames, and any URLs associated with your items. Your private information is just that – private.

With it also being opt-in I dont see an issue with collecting basic numbers for how often people use the plugin or app, as long as they're telling the truth, I think it's fine.
Right, that's one of the points that clock is making.
> Right but if that's all it can be used for, it will eventually settle into a value below its equivalent dollar amount

That I agree with actually! Part of its utility in being used for drug purchases comes from the other uses for BTC meaning that theres liquidity. Without that, it's still useful for black market transcations, but less useful than it is today.

The issue is that the data doesn't belong to the vendor - it belongs to the user. It doesn't matter that you don't personally regard it as sensitive.

Also due to things like lack of ESNI and lack of onion routing to obscure client IP address, it leaks other information to the vendor and ISP like your travel history over time (via client IP geolocation) and waking/sleeping/working hours.

Software that exfiltrates this information without advance consent is stealing it.

The slighted musicians, as you put it, have made plenty of experience-based comments on what the drawbacks are, and why the decision matrix is wrong. They accord with my own (admittedly amateur) experiences. I think it is disingenuous to dismiss their comments with a casual "whether or not you think that's accurate" - that's exactly what their comments are, they're disagreeing with the decision matrix and giving their reasons why.

See especially the comments made by professional tuners (which matches what my own piano tuner tells me).

You shouldn't have to reply with anything. Entities with no proof, due diligence, or process shouldn't be able to make you incur a cost (of discovery of compliance) just because they feel like it.

Sure, in this case, 30 minutes spent and done.

Recently I got a per capita tax bill for a town I didn't live in. They wanted payment for the last 8 years. I lived in a different town entirely (2 towns during the time in question).

When I filled out their form to contest it, they asked for deeds or leases for the duration to prove I didn't live there.

I told them I wouldn't provide such documentation without some proof to the fact I didn't live where I said I did. They responded to ignore the bill, it would be removed (which it was).

To me even the time I spent on this was excessive. In a just world, they'd be liable for my time. Entities, private or government, shouldn't be able to incur costs on our time and life due to their bullshit reasons or error.

Who said any of these llc owners live in Delaware? They may but not necessarily.

Also, we’ve long had the concept of having only one residence. You may own property in multiple places but you are only a resident of one.

> And at this time, our telemetry system won’t be rolled out to any team or business using 1Password.

The fact that they're doing this at all, as well as that they're dangling it as a "we may alter the agreement", makes me more hesitant to buy a team/business subscription to 1Password.

In this case, it seems like unnecessary leakage and implementation complexity in a "you had ONE job" highly security-sensitive service.
While they state it's opt-in, the image they provided shows that the share button is enabled by default. I hope it is not the case, but I personally dislike having opt-in telemetry with a button/checkbox that's enabled by default.

Heh, 25 year overplayer on guitar here. My teacher’s advice recently was to quit trying to impress myself or others. I went home and ripped into some stuff by ear and I am the happiest I’ve been with my playing after years of overplaying and overanalysis. It’s nice to be able to say “oh in that section I played 42 notes demonstrating Lydian b2”, but it also feels entirely useless for what I’m trying to accomplish.

I think graduating from endless analysis and “lots of notes” playing is a part of the journey.

I've used Debian before but always had a disdain for how their packaging works. Dpkg seems completely over engineered (why are there more package states than just installed/not installed?) and the way they package things is just annoying. At random times an install or upgrade asks you questions in a wizard style and they always mess around with the configuration files and directories to the point where I don't even know what's the right way to do it, forcing you to search for the Debian specific way of doing things (which usually ends up with a stackoverflow answer) instead of just being able to use the upstream docs.
We are in space, and more of us will be each year, and it's because of internetworking and smartphones and data technology accelerating progress.

The people in this thread are nuts. I play music at a very high amateur level and know a lot of people with both absolute and perfect pitch. They all enjoy showing it off and are great sight-readers. It's a little more annoying for them to hear music at a less-than-professional level, but no more so than anyone who develops their ear to distinguish between subtleties in other parts of playing like phrasing or rhythm.

(Maybe that's less true for true perfect pitch, though.)

My child studied the Yamaha music program which starts at age 4 or 5 and emphasizes singing everything using fixed do solfege similar to Suzuki but with group classes

They developed white key absolute pitch meaning they can recognize any natural tone by ear and can sing any pitch from memory.

Many of the students developed some form of absolute pitch.

However, I am not sure the utility of the skill. I am into jazz and tried to teach them some improvisation and they never showed a great aptitude or interest for it and they also struggle with relative pitch tasks, essentially converting the notes they recognize into the interval.

In short, I came to the conclusion that absolute pitch recognition by itself won't make you a great musician.

They simply don't care about the website anymore, it's as simple as that. Really basic bugs never get fixed. The video player was never fixed. A lot of the perf issues are React rendering issues.

I've not seen that kind of pullout. Well of course I have but they aren't designed for a slow moving vehicle to let traffic pass. They are just for safely stopping. Like fishing something out of your back seat, taking a quick break, sometimes there's a vista there, that kind of thing.

The turnouts designed for slow moving vehicles to let others pass, at least to my experience these are almost always signed far enough in advance (I'm sure there's a vehicle code mandating distance of signage) and they are at least ten or tens of car lengths long.

I think you are asking too much for any vehicle to pull out into one of those tinier kind of little turnouts for the sake of normal kind of driving/passing activity.

> The "cars be damned" part would be a collision, with the RV at fault. No thanks.

Agreed and this is why i would never use them were I driving an RV, and I don't blame others for not doing it. I'm just noting that I see the big trucks do this all the time. I'd estimate once a month I end up behind slow car panic stopping when he realizes the truck isn't having it.
>I also do refurbishing, I’ve never found IPA to damage boards (evaporates fast without any residue.)

Do you brush dust off? If I dont use a brush with the IPA, it leaves behind the dust residue in clumps. Also more worryingly, it seems to leave contacts less shiny than before which is what concerns me.

>You can deyellow with retrobright, but the downside is that it makes plastic more brittle.

Yeah I have a pile of plastics I've been collecting that I wish to try with retrobrite but I haven't made the jump yet. I plan to try the 'vapor' method to be as gentle as possible on the plastic.

>For some stains you can get them out with a magic eraser, it’s essentially a high grit sponge.

In my experience magic eraser does remove stains but also smooths the plastic and removes the small bumps and bruises you naturally have on a lot of plastic pieces from the 90s. That roughness I am talking about is from the metal mold. Also magic eraser is terrible for clear plastics. How do you deal with that?

>Agreed about deoxit, it’s still good for contacts though (cartridges and such.)

Yes but the spray version gets everywhere. There are different versions of deoxit. I tired D-series and this stuff just does not fully evaporate from the board. I'm looking to try G series in the hopes that it does not leave a mess that I have to later clean.
For incidents like that the weight could be a problem, no?

Usually enrollment declines on a regional basis have more to do with generational variances. People have smaller families at different times.

In some areas you have more religious fanatics driving homeschooling, but the COVID numbers were really kids dropping out. Urban and rural schools did a particularly shitty job during the pandemic.

Private school is no panacea either. My kids have been in private schools, and you have to keep an eye on what’s going on. The teachers get paid a lot less and they have a tendency to paint a rosy picture. You need to be a strong advocate for your kid, especially if they have needs for extra help.

Regarding blisters, you absolutely can get blisters with toe socks, it just takes longer. I hike exclusively with Injiji Nuwool. On my JMT thru-hike I developed large blisters on one toe on the side, and on another toe on the top. Also coincidentally areas where I wasn't wearing leukotape. In future hikes I made sure to leukotape top and sides and subsequently never had a blister again. I swear by pre-taping leukotape on long hikes to prevent blisters, more than the type of sock, but I do enjoy toe socks for the toe splaying thing since I wear Altra Lone Peaks (wide toe box shoes).
