> Journalists, as well as "journalists", are going to get paid one way or another.

Says who?

Lots of journalists have been laid off in the past decade because of media consolidation -- some of them found other jobs or went independent, but most had to find another field because _the money isn't there_.

The media companies will get paid one way or another, but the companies are not journalists.

People love throwing in about how effective insulation is, completely ignoring the vast difference in difficulty and cost it actually represents.

I'm also kind of surprised they added quote RTs. That's a pretty combative feature.
I'm very skeptical that this will succeed. As with other extremely hyped social medias (anyone remember Clubhouse?) it's already filled with influencers and e-celebs trying to get in early, but these people always poison the well with insincere, low-quality, monetization-oriented content. AFAIK, every successful social media platform grew more or less organically and only had these folks latch on later (usually causing the degradation of the platform when they did).
That’s not the situation here. This is about whether I can record my romantic partner when I am in a private conversation with her, not in public, without her consent.

The word "debunk" is doing some heavy lifting in those articles. "....Overall 58 per cent of people actually disobeyed the pushy experimenter [which means that 42 percent didn't.] How can we understand this variability, Reicher asked, if the agentic state is true?" What else would explain it -- and more important, what difference does it make?

Milgram found that 42% of people will administer electric shocks to someone who appears to be screaming in pain, as long as the order is given by an apparent authority figure. What is there to debunk, exactly?

Keep in mind what motivated these experiments: a desire to understand more about how the Nazis were able to accomplish what they did. It's not as if the findings of Milgram and Zimbardo were novel or controversial; they were merely trying to reproduce and understand something that the entire world had just observed.
Maybe it’s A/B testing, but I can see the linked post without an account.
My Twitter is full of two things - people doing exactly the same thing they were doing a year, two years, three years ago, and people saying how Twitter is such a dumpster fire now and everything is so bad and it's the end and Twitter will be dead soon (but they're still on it).

I'm not saying Twitter is going to be around 20 years from now, but I do think the reports of its death are greatly exaggerated.

I like this quote. Forgot where I first heard it.

Threads are for working in parallel, async is for waiting in parallel.

If your app is doing the work, use threads. If something else is doing the work like a database engine or the kernel retrieving a file from disk, use async since your app is just waiting.
So basically, filters.

I feel like there’s a chicken and egg problem for Threads: it uses your existing Instagram social graph to populate your Threads account. Of course FB is going to do that otherwise they lose a massive edge against any competitor. But for me at least my Twitter is a very different social space to my Instagram and there’s very little crossover.

So Threads looks like it’ll be text posts with your Instagram friends. Which is fine, I suppose. But not a Twitter replacement.
Taking my honest response to this question, removing all political and religious aspects, and filtering out all of my unacceptable beliefs, what remains: Feel free to eat all the fast food, soda pop, and anything else you like. It won’t matter.

As I understand it: The library furnishes (produces, provides) a copy on request, which is technically a publication to 3rd parties, since the library is not the user. But this is covered under Section 108, which provides a legal framework for this for the purpose of "private study, scholarship, or research". On the other hand, users have (still) full access and usage rights under conditions of fair-use. (E.g., as a user, you are still allowed to use the material for criticism. Notably, this is your criticism, but not the librarian's criticism, who produces the copy that is furnished to you. The enabling title for them is your research.) – So the note states the conditions under which the copy was produced and warns users of liabilities, in case of excess of fair-use on their side. In other words, this is a legal copy, but it doesn't start a branch of free publication. (As opposed to, "Everybody can go to the library and get a copy, so I can hand out copies of this just as well.")

Achim from AirGradient.

We design and manufacture open-hardware low-cost air quality monitors. We sell and maintain very popular DIY air quality monitoring kits [1].

I think there are a few things that set us apart from other hardware startups:

- Most of our air quality monitors are open-source software and open-source hardware under CC license and we do NOT have any patents ;). All our code, drawings, schematics etc. are freely available on our website [2]. You can easily flash the monitor with your own software adjustments and point it e.g. directly to your home assistant server.

- Air pollution is one of the biggest environmental health risk and paradoxically the countries with the highest air pollution e.g. in Africa have the lowest dense network of air quality monitors. We try and keep our monitors as affordable as possible to enable disadvantaged communities and countries to monitor their air quality. Me and my co-founder are personally impacted by heavy air pollution and the first priority for us is to make an impact (and by making a good job, hopefully some profit).

- We are fully self-funded and were able to pull off the design & development by having an ideal set of prior experiences and skills, able to aquire customers at an early stage and enough own funds to reach that stage. Working from a low-cost base in Thailand also helped keeping costs down.

- We don't believe in prorietory algorithms and work transparently with many research partners in 4 continents to better understand the performance of low-cost air quality monitor. [3]

Ask HN: Do You Use Waterfall?
I was just reading an article on Monday.com (https://monday.com/blog/project-management/waterfall-methodology/) that referenced pmi.org and stated:

"According to a study by PMI, 56% of projects used traditional — AKA Waterfall — methods in the past 12 months."

I found this surprising, as all the companies I've worked with have used Agile methodologies.

Perhaps I've been living in a bubble... so my question to HN is:

Do you use the Waterfall process at work? How do you find it? When would you advocate for using waterfall, and when would you avoid it?

No they are not.

Infrastructure as Code is literally is nothing more than keeping a config file in Git and running a script to apply the config to a REST API (or whatever). Terraform stands in as an overcomplicated script. Infrastructure as Code does not determine if what is being managed is immutable or not.

Configuration Management is a program designed to attempt to change mutable state so that it once again resembles what you want.

Immutable Infrastructure is immutable. You cannot change the state. Hence configuration management is pointless and unnecessary.
A game I play held a retweeting campaign[1] (common thing for games) yesterday, and it successfully passed their usual threshold (70k retweets) like any other time they held one.

That was indication to me that claims of Twitter's death are, indeed, greatly exaggerated as always.

I don't doubt some people are getting rate limited, but I also have no doubt now that those people are the vocal minority while everyone else keeps on tweeting.

5 regional authorities is still _centralized_
I almost think the spreadsheet part of the article is a red herring. It's being used as a literary device to tie together a few useful investigatory methods in a way that puts a bit too much emphasis on the tooling at the expense of the real advice, which is to profile the project and get a good sense of what you're working with before you move on to development.

To put it another way, if you were to boil this down to a one-liner to a colleague, "investigate before developing" is useful advice and "use spreadsheets" is not.

Models currently have well enough data, orders of magnitude more than humans get. When’s the last time you read the entirety of Wikipedia cover to cover? The models are just currently too dumb to make use of it properly.

It should be possible to train a more intelligent (if less knowledgeable) neural network with a fraction of current training dataset. The reason that they use so much data is because it’s easy gains.
It pains me that I've worked with people that were gunning for a few of these.
I agree, but I also think that, at this moment, the conditions are right. People are hungry for a twitter alternative and this could lead to a lot of sincere and authentic users joining Threads.

You're conflating concerns. Random site, but from the section Is it legal to Record Audio on Security Cameras:

> In most cases, it is not legal to record audio on security cameras unless all parties are aware that you may be recording audio. https://www.upcounsel.com/audio-surveillance-laws-by-state

Notably most video cameras don't include audio. Because it's a legal liability & it's simply easier to prove your camera cant record audio than to have a feature that's disabled. Audio recording is incredibly un-popular. But yes, still, in quite a number of states it's possible to go around putting audio recordings in public. 0 party consent in public.

But even that's not what Veritas did at all. They went into private offices of other people & secretly recorded conservations. People being asked questions thought they were dealing with crazy people & were afraid for their safety, they have testified. Giles dressed as a prostitute & O'Keefe semi-claimed to be a boyfriend, and walked into offices in 7 states (and DC) and pressured staff into talking about illegal businesses. They did as much as they could to, while secretly recording, get people to say bad things. One person being attacked like swore under oath that they feared for their safety & were scared. One said they thought it was a joke. One of them played along, feeling sorry for Giles who said she was being injured by her pimp, and then called the police because she was propositioned about setting up under-age sex trade operations. This farce brought down one of the biggest international collectivist organization on the planet, by ambushing these people with secret recordings & cherry picking the worst things to hurt them with.

This whole case is about people recording each other in private. That's the whole purpose of this law: to defend against assault by advanced persistent Vertias like aggressor threats (and lower/simpler forms of scummery).
Wow, this is really cool. The pricing is way above my budget, but I can see the market for a premium device like this- if it really does what it looks like it does. The “point and tell” demo is particularly amazing.

Great homepage, by the way- makes it very easy to tell what the robot can do (and I appreciated the FAQ).

The $75/month ($900/year) price tag is quite steep, but between the feature set, the intelligence built into the device, and the free repairs and replacements, I think this provides a lot of value for homeowners. I subscribed to your email list. Good luck!
From my reading of this decision that would not be allowed.
It won't kill anything. The surface of the ocean has natural fluctuations of salinity all the time due to evaporation, and it doesn't cause mass die offs. It's literally a necessary part of the ecosystem (and in fact discharging freshwater can cause problems to the ecosystem). But if your discharged water is within the natural 30 to 40 grams of salt per liter range, there's no ecological problem here.
Two party consent only protects the politicians - frankly I'm shocked it hasn't been forced in more states.
> all the companies I've worked with have used Agile methodologies

Have they really? Or do they do Waterfall with Jira™? I ask because I've consulted on multiple projects where they called their process Agile, because they did some things and called them by their Scrum names, or they had Scrum Masters, but with a bit of critical distance it was easy enough to see they were doing waterfall with extra steps.
That is correct. The US has sufficient military power to enforce a global sanctions regime on Iran, and everybody knows it, very much including Iran. Iran, meanwhile, has no such ability. Sovereign states relate to each other in a Hobbesian state of nature, not under the due process laws of any one country.

If Iran could do anything other than prey on hapless commercial vessels, people might look at the situation differently. But they can't, and people see it for what it appears to be: illegitimate.

“The technology of that time severely limited the number of available channels (broadcast channels being six megahertz wide due to severe interference etc)” is actually very comparable to “the market forces of our time severely limits the number of available distributors (network effects mean everyone is on Facebook and Twitter)”. To a government this is genuinely a strong argument for fairness doctrines.

I personally don’t think the Canadian laws are like fairness doctrines, to me they are more like rent-seeking on valuable Canadian eyeballs, but if the Canadian government does see their laws as something like fairness doctrines, they have a pretty good case for it!
