Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal all have their own version of this (to a more or less limited extent) by virtue of being the Southern most countries in the union. It's an impossible position to be in and no matter how they try to deal with it it never works to anybody's satisfaction. The Greek coastguard seems to have a lot to answer for based on the evidence presented, but I somewhat doubt those 'Western countries' (of which they consider themselves part) are going to take action. Because if they did those Southern states could just throw up their hands and say 'if you know how to deal with this then you will have to show us'. And nobody is willing to take that up. Long term the only way to deal with it is to arrange for economic parity with the countries on the other side of the divide and that's not going to happen in the next 50 years, maybe not even in the next 100. But it worked well for Mexico and the United States right up to the point where Trump came to power, then it all went to pieces. But I do believe that that is the only way out and until then we will see one tragedy after another.

Europe has a strong xenophobic streak running through it at the moment, in each and every country there is a right-of-center party either ruling or gaining strength to the point that people are seriously worried they will be able to unite. Most of these campaign on fear-of-the-other and immigrants are obviously a very convenient scapegoat. Housing shortage, the social contract that has become unstable, school quality and so on, each and every problem is traced back to immigration, no matter how ridiculous the link. And it gets lapped up as gospel.

I'm all for getting to the bottom of this and bringing the Greek coastguard leadership as well as anybody that was on that boat to justice. But I cynically doubt that this will happen, and that even if it should happen that something fundamental will change.

I guess the employee raising the concern may risk having their role made redundant by going to management. I guess the only option really is switching teams.

The other problem is that often they have too many people already. That's why layoffs had basically no impact.

The J&J case over talcum powder showed that you cannot in fact do that. But to your credit, even they thought they could until a judge said otherwise.
I get the occasional customer asking for a refund because they claim they accidentally placed an order. For a while I just thought it was a stupid excuse, how do you accidentally enter your credit card number into a form but now with the browser auto completing everything maybe they’re actually serious?
Well, you got that guy...
> In fact, most things we learn outside of STEM in academia can be learned elsewhere - literature, languages, arts, etc.

Why specify STEM as being an exception to that rule? Are people unable to learn programming or math outside of academia? It's a shame the arts aren't seen as valid jobs and so are unworthy of investment.
This is the truth. The entire OOP paradigm is just a profound misunderstanding of how the world works.
I *highly* doubt that the reasons are the same for EU and China.
Putin says so.
I was so confused with the 8am to 12pm. You mean 8am to 12am :)
Maybe it would be useful to use a bell curve for the population of a given time zone between say 5am and 11am, with the max around 8am. This would cover late sleepers and early risers (and people like myself who had to travel from one timezone to another for work and haven't adjusted).
If the rules are ironclad (in an ideal world) then you're right about 3 violating 1. In the current world, don't count on it.
I'm pretty sure they would. We have a pretty strong anti-immigrant movement here and if what happened at the IND and the tax office is any guidance I highly doubt our coastguard would be immune.
Yeah.

A more refined website would ask: Is the US East Coast Awake? Is the US West Coast awake? An even more refined website would ask: Is it East Coast Rush hour now? Is it West Coast Rush hour now?
I agree. The problem these OO patterns tend to introduce is unneeded levels of abstraction that all boil down to making the code difficult to read without three wide screen monitors.
If they admitted liability, people could sue for individual damages on top of the settlement. It's a buy-out, water under the bridge kinda thing, because individual lawsuits would cost years, would cost each individual thousands, and could cost 3M even more once all added up. It's a legal logistical nightmare.

Instead, people are offered a one time payment to basically drop the case. I think a lot are happy to take it because it means they don't have to fight a tedious legal battle.

Interesting. Does that imply a study of the "average person", so to speak? Or might it be a study of people whose (say) PFAS exposures were suspected to be high, for whatever reason?
The error is thinking that Twitter is a place for discourse.

It's a place where you go see what celebrities (of any field, programming counts) are promoting and maybe follow a few interesting people who use Twitter as a medium for their writing for some reason.

It's not a place where you can change anyone's opinion and if you think that you'll have a bad time.

I received a BA and MFA in small, idiosyncratic arts programs even more niche and unmarketable than puppetry. After graduation and realizing I'd never be employed, I set off taking free online CS courses and programming tutorials. In hindsight, I really wish I would have done it exactly opposite. Study computer science in college and take a couple of arts classes as electives or pursue it as a part-time hobby. It all worked out, but it reminds me how many of these arts and humanities programs are legacies of a bygone economic era. They are also a product of credentialism, in which it becomes difficult or impossible to demonstrate your knowledge in Literature, for example, without having the degree.
Core features are the same, but the pretense is different. What else matters now? It will take a long while for excellence to win out again.
This is the right way to do it, if it's possible to do so. Flag as deleted then have a scheduled job that checks for items that need to be deleted.

You could always make it progressive to effectively disallow spending more than X tonnes per year per person.

Similarly, 4K video looks much better on a 1080p screen than a 1080p video. A youtuber posted a comparison, its easy to see even in a still image. Its all in their encoding algorithm.
Their 8 hours...
We did that to leave open more complex ordering of both init containers and sidecars (regular containers do not have a restart order). For instance, you might have a service mesh that needs a vault secret - those both might be sidecars, and you may need to ensure the vault sidecar starts first if both go down. Eventually we may want to add parallelism to that start order, and a separate field would prevent simple ordering from working now.

Also, these are mostly init containers that run longer, and you want a sidecar not starting to be able to block regular pods, and adding a new container type (like ephemeral containers) is extremely disruptive to other parts of the system (security, observability, and UI), so we looked to minimize that disruption.
I'm using Zola and Cloudflare Pages, and it is currently possibly to use ZOLA_VERSION=0.17.1. I thought I had opted into the Pages v2 beta (I remember joining a Discord for this purpose a while ago), but on the actual page the setting is at v1.

You can change this under Settings > Builds & deployments > Build system version. Cheers!
I once had a Cloud Ops engineer "accidentally" delete an S3 bucket containing all the logos for our whitelisted page. Claims he was cleaning up and didn't think these were important until after the fact.

We couldn't just turn this back and had to ask each client (about 50 at the time) to send us their brand guides again. Of course, being the PM this was somehow my fault
It's a cost-cutting measure that reeks of a company trying to cut costs as fast as possible.
Why not a step further, show it deleted but continue to maintain activity associated with it, and include it in data sold to third party marketing?

You could be the next Meta.
This is actually a best practice given the data, not a dark pattern. Irreversible, high impact operations should require the user to prove they are not impaired, but instead fully aware of what they are doing.

> I don't understand the fascination with obsolete commodity hardware on HN.

It's pretty simple - on the emotional side there's nostalgia, and on the rational side there's the fact that old hardware is typically much easier to understand.

A modern CPU has so much technology that there's probably no person in the world who can understand all of it: cache coherency, out-of-order execution, branch prediction, TSX instructions, the list goes on.

In contrast, a dedicated person could feasibly understand all the logic in an old CPU and keep a good mental model of how all of it works.
What reason could he possibly have to give them to Nitter, which has at its primary purpose undermining their conversion and engagement attempts?

The old token was the twitter web token. I suspect the new one is one of the mobile clients. Maybe new tweetdeck. Though probably the iOS client token makes the most sense, being the hardest to rotate on a whim with app store review.

I'm skeptical that was ever the rain for the rationing.
> I fear it might be an EEE campaign to destroy the fediverse rather than twitter, but we'll see.

What's the motive? The Fediverse has a 7 digit user base, while Twitter has a 9 digit user base, so why would Meta care more about the former than the latter?

Not to mention, Threads shipped without ActivityPub support, so it's obviously not their top priority.
There's Finnish company called Norsepower that makes these. Their page does mention that the idea also came up around the same time to Finnish inventor Sigurd Savonius who also held some patents around this area. Linked wiki entry didn't seem to mention him thought. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigurd_Johannes_Savonius

And https://www.norsepower.com/

Ps. I don't know anything about the topic - just internet rabbit hole for me as I recently came to know that Norsepower's CMO is well known ex-musician in Finland and startup entrepreneur.

No, the lesson is to stop interfering in other countries' internal affairs. The so-called refugees all originate from countries that suffered western military operations. "Humanitarian" intervention is the new colonialism.
Almost no findings in psychology survive 20 years, almost all of them are determined to be fraudulent manipulation of data and findings or at the least fail to be replicated. Psychology is not producing scientific findings as a field, it's completely ignorable and responsible for a large chunk of the science replication crisis.
What is the best API to stream radio stations online?
Dear HN community,
We are building myRadio Global (https://www.myradioglobal.com/) to bring users the best and fastest online radio experience. We're currently using the Radio Browser API to source streams, and we built a script that runs weekly to find streams that are not working and hide them. However, we are looking for an alternative to RadioBrowser to add more radio station streams to our website and increase the quality of the metadata (logos, locations, etc). Do you have any suggestions?

Thank you,
Joao

Nah, I'm pretty anti-dark pattern, and I think it's fine to make the user think for a second before deleting their account irreversibly. A dark pattern would be something like Facebook, where they really try to get you to deactivate it, and make you wait 30 days or whatever if you do manage to use the very hidden delete button.
That's a very weird view of what a salaried position means. I'd even say very US-centric, since most other developed countries consider a salaried position as being paid for a certain amount of hours worked per month, there are limits on hours worked because if not there's nothing limiting the employer on requesting you to work as many hours as they please ("I pay you a salary, of course you need to work 14h/day").

In most parts of the globe, yes, you are working for free in this case, your contract does not stipulate you are available to work at all times, or more than the allocated hours per week/month of your contract. If there's a need for work outside of these hours they are considered overtime.

On top of that, on-call work disrupts your life outside of work, you can't do anything that requires complete disassociation from work life since you can be paged at any time, not paying a premium for this type of alertness and labour is pure exploitation.

> I’ve reviewed many resumes lately and think there’s cover letters for maybe 5% of the applications. I like them and think they are helpful to me to 1) show the applicant read the position and thought about it some, 2) call out specific parts of resumes that are relevant to the position.

A brief cover letter that provides additional context to the resume is useful to me as a hiring manager, but I also know that few people read them. That said, anything to boost my chances is good, so I'll include such a letter with my applications.

Sleeping 7 hours instead of 8 gives you ~30 extra waking hours a month. I always get caught up on that, for better or worse.
I understood, I was just using one less level of meta parody to make my point. I thought TFA was funny, if not hilarious. I also enjoyed HPMOR. So I'll make my point again, which is that you can like a thing and also like its parody.
Scheduling meetings with Americans tend to get a little worse than expected, because they apparently think 9 - 17:00 is when you should be working, and not 8 - 16:00. So rather than having an afternoon meeting, you get to have a late afternoon meeting.

I think I can find more people in Denmark working 7 - 15:00 compared to 9 - 17:00.
Would be interesting to see it with English translation.
You must see that this is _a ton_ more work, that could easily conflict with other team interests. Let alone the more typical experience of getting a scolding for not sticking to the agenda (which I've experienced many times).

All this work that could be better directed by someone who has a bigger picture view & vision for how teams should work together -- good management.
Are we pretending only Americans use AM/PM time, now?
I have Thunderbird to thank for allowing me to migrate the GMail accounts of several clients whilst retaining the original timestamps. You'd think a behemoth like Google would be able to handle this but Thunderbird is what you need for this.
Why? When you say prejudice, is it a technical thing or a political thing? It's strange trying to parse the issue - I think of electric cars as a left thing (though Musk's biggest innovation was creating them as a status symbol which doesn't really cut along political lines very cleanly), but Musk as a champion of the right wing these days. From what I can tell, the cars themselves are technically pretty good and seem like a good deal with a tax incentive (the Model 3 at least).
One distinction is between being an apprentice to some craft that doesn't pay much under the best of circumstances and being an at least minimally useful apprentice/helper to a skilled trade that is pretty highly compensated. It's a lot easier to pay the latter decently than the former.
Why ? You feel alone ?

> The media has whipped redditors up into a comparable frenzy over a guy who doesn't like the large role social media companies have been playing in the suppression of free speech as companies responsible for major ecological disasters.

I think blaming this on "the media" and "redditors" is highly exaggerated. My entire social circle went from neutral leaning positive to negative leaning highly negative in about 5 years. My boomer dad, my friends from college who live in the bay area and own Teslas, my wife who is completely disconnected from tech, everybody.

Every upstart goes through a phase where they transition from a hip, sort-of-underground brand to being Big Business and all the reputational risks that come with being Big Business.

During that transition, it takes a lot of effort for brands to keep a professional image. How much money and effort does a $3Trillion company like Apple put into remaining somewhat cool despite being the very definition of Big Business? Google was once a do-no-evil darling and now struggles to keep their brand positive. Facebook was extremely cool and now practically synonymous with "evil".

And what does Elon Musk do during this transition? He shitposts on Twitter daily, broadcasts political opinions, and starts flame wars. This guy is considered THE tesla guy, and he does absolutely nothing to keep Tesla's brand image during the hip-to-corporate transition.

His antics were great in the mid/late 2010s when people would excitedly share on social media about flamethrowers or boring company swag.

No fucking wonder Tesla's brand image is going down, and good riddance. The CEO who was right for Tesla the scrappy underdog isn't the same CEO that's right for Tesla the trillion dollar megacorp.
It's the same questions. Europeans rise when the American's do so they can be online at the same time.
It's more a measurement of how useful you appear to rich people. You can't make money being useful to people without money. You can make money convincing rich people you're useful to them when you're not.
I don't think I've ever used these modifiers but Firefox's address bar, Awesomebar, is indeed awesome. Compared to the utter garbage that is Chromium's Omnibar, I can find any page I've visited within a few key strokes. Chromium, on the other hand, almost immediately forgets and you have to go to the actual History to find it. Even Safari is miles ahead of Chromium in this regard. I'm still convinced that crippling Omnibar is Google's way of nudging users to search for the term again (and thus displaying ads within the search results) instead of just picking it up from history.

Just be curious why are people still using email client other than web based one?

So that my emails are truly mine. I pull them off the server straight away for anti-tampering and reducing attack exposure should the provider be compromised. I can then compress and backup my emails. If my provider should falter I can change providers and still have all my emails, even pushing any of them back up to the new server should I have such a need. The same logic applies for my contacts. When a web-only provider goes offline, so do all my emails and contacts which feels too much like corporate capture to me.
