Other than the chance the email is delayed, and the generally subpar UX, what are your concerns with emailed codes? This is an honest question, as this is the primary login method I settled on for all my services after spending a good chunk of time thinking about this.

Imagine any political figure in the United States currently being able to produce a document like this.
Unfortunately this sort of thing makes sense in the end: one in the hand is worth two in the bush. Yeah he likes the guy and probably gives him more than he is due, but they know who he is, what he acts like, where he's going. They know how to work with him. In all these kinds of matters, no matter how shiny someone presents themselves to be, its only over the course of many months and years of knowing them that you can get an accurate picture.

From the electrical engineering perspective, the earliest relay and vacuum tube computers were built out of elements developed for radio and telephone exchanges.

When you say "gaps", do you mean space between windows? I do that. Seeing a bit of the wallpaper is like seeing a bit of your desk between papers. Helps with mental context switching. Window borders probably serve the same function, but they've never worked as well for me.

This is filler. Botox doesn't plump out features. (I've never had botox, but I have friends who have. The difference between discount and top-tier Manhattan plastic surgeon administration is noticeable. Or, I suppose, not.)
There's "jagoda", "borówka" and "łochinia" and the mapping from names to fruits switch in every region :). My grandma called bog billberies - "borówka", and "łochinie" were smaller, elongated blueberries with slightly green insides. They were less sweet and more tart than regular "jagoda".

I think this is what she called "łochinia", but it grew in the forest so I'm not sure:

10.x subnets conflicting around is kinda the norm outside if the cloud too. I’ve seen that myself while configuring a vpn between two companies, and ultimately we had to do some kind of nat trickery to get the thing going.

The solution would be ipv6 and ula prefixes, but that’s another can of worms. I’d love to see it implemeted, but stay assured it’ll come with its own set of issues, complexities and difficulties.

That's why I said eventually. And for every one of those, there's a few hundred where that isn't the case. What matters is what happens on average and the reality is it's probably much more like a bellcurve where your cases are outliers.
The post apocalyptic-type civilization can only last so long, though. I base my hypothesis on the Bronze Age collapse, where a bunch of fairly complex civilizations all went back to approximately the Stone Age in the span of 50 years or so. Advanced civilizations live on supply chains and are (as was demonstrated by the pandemic) actually pretty brittle. So I think the path back home to the Stone Age will go, as Hemingway said, “gradually, then suddenly.”
And this is why I hate having to deal with AWS. Learning this stuff isn't technical knowledge, it's product knowledge.

I read the TCP/IP illustrated series cover to cover and learned that stuff cold, and this was useful knowledge to me for decades.

However I always find myself resisting learning this AWS stuff, which is just as complex in its own way too. This diagram makes me feel that if the goal was to simplify things, then I'm not sure how successful they were at that.
It would be disrespectful if thats all they said, but including "it would be nice.." and "...imho" changes it to politely giving their opinion on a third party forum. If it were a show hn, or the projects own forum I might agree with you, but this is the appropriate place to give armchair opinions.
It is not that the UK can’t set the rules for their own country; it is just that they need Microsoft and Apple more than Microsoft and Apple need them and so the government has little leverage here.

Further, they aren’t large enough to block the deal so they will only make things worse for their own citizens as it will just deny citizen access to certain products and services or create or otherwise cause companies pull out of the market causing businesses and citizens to look for sun par alternatives.

Apple and Microsoft can’t tell the UK government what to to, but the power dynamic is still what it is and the reality of what blocking the deal will actually accomplish is still the reality.
It's the number of clicks that got me to move away from redmine. I used redmine for many years and then pivotal tracker. Pivotal lets you expand an issue inline and edit it without loading a new page. If redmine had an interface like that, I would probably still be using it today.

Because it was pushed and is being pushed primarily by Google and its devrels. After 12 years in development they are barely usable, have a ton of issues that are not resolved [1] and [2], and any client library in the same state would be laughed out of the room by anyone.

However, there are now hundreds of millions of dollars of sunk costs, dozens and dozens of specs, unbelievable complexity that infects all other actually useful specs (like Scoped CSS which cannot proceed properly because effing Shadow DOM), extreme zealotry and complete unwillingness to engage with anyone even mildly critical of web components.

All this results in a strong desire to keep going and promoting this even if no one can even say what the "done" state is for them. Or what is the actual goal, since that goal changes every few months.

I meant "medieval" here to refer to any time between the beginning of neoplatonism and the industrial revolution: quite a large space, but it seems like those are the only two time periods people are generally aware of in the history of thought, since we teach kids that everything between then was the "dark ages."

The sections on the super early years were great. A lot of ideas and perspectives in there that I have not heard before. The later sections personally didn't do as much for me, but that's probably only because I am more familiar with those topics.

Thank you to the author for creating this! This style of super personal historical overview is very enjoyable. I like how the author says outright to take everything with a grain of salt and I like how they call out things about the narrative that don't make sense to them.

I'm not sure the wedge created between many of the communities and the platform is repairable at this stage without extended displays of good will from Reddit's side.

Lots of communities have started the process of migrating to different platforms. The federated alternatives like Lemmy have had recent success although I question the complexity of it in terms of getting mass adoption. Most of the alternatives seem to be missing the core idea of what Reddit really is (a community of communities). I think first and foremost the community aspect of Reddit is what makes it appealing.

I've been building a platform called Sociables which is intentionally not just another Reddit clone. We are trying to create an all-in-one place for people to create communities first and foremost and not just posts.

I'm wondering if any of you have cooked before. You don't allow the meat to reach 212F in any method of cooking. If you do then you get something resembling leather because you way overcooked the meat.

The only parts of the meat that get above 212 are the surfaces in direct contact with the heat source.

The notion of a "bad name" is evidence of aesthetic gatekeeping.

You can sometimes say something is objectively bad: You shouldn't name your class `Car` if it models a boat. It's unrelated.

However to argue about "small" vs "smol" is a matter of pedantry. And it's further trivialized by the fact that "smol" is part of a well-established lexicon of a large demographic. Eventually you'll see it in Merriam-Webster. But if the argument is "it must be in Merriam-Webster", that's textbook gatekeeping.
Right? The article opens with image of a skyscraper, in a field of skyscrapers, dwarfed by a neighboring skyscraper, and then highlights a couple extra floors at the top. Who cares?

I was in Botox for migraine in the early days. Had more than one conversation with someone who was clearly mistaken that I’d said I was taking Botox for cosmetic purposes very probably because they had. Made for a funny conversation, but not bad. And others asking whether it’s like cosmetic Botox.

Oh, Hitler believed a lot things... Bad for both, that Churchill was prime minister, right?

Also, I didn't say Stalin's War is Nazi apologist BS, just that it seems borderline to some BS that was spread right after the war. Which makes sense, since it was the early days of the Cold War.

Churchil was never in favor of a seperate peace, nor someone else in the Allied camp. Every declaration made that extremely clear. Claiming otherwise is delusional.

Users can vouch dead comments from the shadowbanned if they have showdead on and sometimes they'll appear for everyone like this one did.

I think the population pyramid for most countries before WW1 and WW2 looked to be about the same shape.

Here's Japan throughout the 20th century: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Japan_population_pyr...

France: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:France_Animated_Popu...

I don't think they expected the population pyramid to turn out the way it did. People in the past worried about global overpopulation, I don't think they would've done that if they had had an idea that population would naturally cap itself out without anybody even doing anything.

It's understandable why these systems were set-up, but some generation in the future (maybe us) will pay the price.
That explains the Sean joke I found elsewhere!
> most do not enter there willingly (i.e., they plead not guilty)

The idea that most incarcerated people pled not guilty, were tried and found guilty, and are now incarcerated is not true in the US.

Many of incarcerated are still awaiting trial. The DOJ reports that a quarter of those in US jail and prison are awaiting trial [1]. I suspect most of those cannot afford bail.

In terms of after trial, npr reports, "98% of criminal cases in the federal courts end with a plea bargain" [2].

> the cost just gets passed on as lower worker compensation

This applies to payroll taxes, but I don’t think it applies to corporate income taxes. Since corporate income taxes are typically levied against profit, not revenue, wages are paid out of “pre-tax” money. A high corporate income tax rate would actually incentivize paying higher wages and/or hiring more employees.

If you want to experiment with something new and fun pick bun or deno.

If you're looking to currently build a larger scale project with a few people that supports a lot of users, it's safer to go with nodejs/typescript.
Perhaps? But I do plenty of projects where I'm just paired with another engineer. I'm maybe taking lead, but they're sitting in on all the meetings and helping make decisions when I want someone to check my work. That may be worth noting in a ticket in case I'm busy or out of office and someone needs an answer around the project, even if they don't have a specific task they're responsible for that they'd be assigned a child ticket for.

It's also a level of precision question. At some point, having a lot of child tickets is just extra work if it's mostly just documenting something that could have been as easily documented by attaching another person's name to the parent ticket.
The company I work for currently gave me my password, comprised of four space-separated words, on my first day. It has no expiry and can only be changed at request or if compromised.

My only gripe with this approach is that my specific password is a bit awkward to type. I tend to pick passwords at least partly based on "keyboard feel" and it's annoying that there's one word that has a lot of repetition of colocated letters.

Other than that it's a fantastic model and hugely preferred over routine password resets.

Did you have other options for relieving that tension? Or was Botox the most effective?
It's great that the author found a good job and is happy, but being a tenured professor has its own advantages (at least in the US system)... 9 month years (three-four months holiday/year), essentially no boss, salary (maybe lower than equivalent in private sector, but is sufficient), paid sabbaticals, unpaid leaves, 2-days/week teaching and the rest of the time on pet projects, job security, ability to do contracting on the side. But to get that there is quite an upfront commitment and its uncertain. Probably if you did the same amount of effort in the private sector you could get some of those things, but I doubt all of them...
I admit that I've largely given up on cotton. I know there's still the issue of micro-plastic waste to consider, but in other respects, synthetics just seem to work better. They last longer, are quick-drying, and stain resistant.

The latter two features are important since I get around town by bike, and am at the mercy of the weather, plus annoyed when my pants touch my bike and acquire permanent black stains. That stuff washes right out of my synthetic pants.

Meanwhile, I perceive that cotton clothing has gotten worse, most notably wearing out sooner. I probably won't buy any more blue jeans, even name brand, though it's not unthinkable that the ones I've gotten recently are counterfeit.

Fortunately I live in a casual town, and my job is "engineering casual." ;-)

I'm not sure about the relative environmental impact of a pair of cotton jeans that lasts a year, or a pair of hiking pants that lasts six years.
Our family flies every year for vacation. Notably unlike my friends and other family we don't usually travel much on airlines other than that.

I think the environmental impact of that one flight pales in comparison to the plastic packaging our family consumes on a yearly basis... and we are conscientious of our usage.
> ALL wars are foundationally resource wars

I can't see any conflict over resources between Russia and Ukraine. Both countries have abundant natural resources, including minerals and water; both are large net exporters of food.

As far as I can see, that war is primarily about ideology, not natural resources. At a pinch you could argue that Russian naval access to the Black Sea is access to a natural resource; but then Russia had unquestioned access to the Black Sea before the invasion of Crimea.
