The headline in the Daily Mirror in the article says, "Mystery of Woman Novelist's Disappearance", which tells me that she was much less famous in 1926 than she is today. Any headline about her today would have used her name (just as the feature article and the Hacker News title did).
The ranking is only relevant to you. It's part of Kagi's lenses and search tailored for you, by you approach.

I guess their "Universal Summarizer" is a part of their indexer, so they try to understand what you want and provide you more relevant results.

They probably have other signals and systems to detect spam and other unwanted things.
Her non-physics videos tend to be a bit off, but not terrible; on the whole, they're still reasonably well-researched and educational.

Where she really gets into trouble is farther out into the social sciences. I think she should be much more careful there. I don't want her to stop, I just want her to be more careful!

An interesting example is one of her two videos on transgenderism. It had an absolutely appalling both-sidesing intro that literally called people who crazy who are just concerned about suicide rates among trans people. The contents of the video were actually pretty reasonable, although she messed up a few key interpretations so that some parts ended up being misleading. I don't think she's transphobic, but on an issue like this I think a bit more care needs to be taken.

More recently she had a piece on capitalism that was incredibly anemic. I think she tried to bite off more than she could chew (for a 20 minute video) and so she kind of missed the entire "what are the problems" side of the topic, even while laying out some reubttals to common statements. I feel like she'd have done better than that on a more close-to-home topic.

(Her physics videos are of course fantastic.)

I went through a Scala book with a reading group. Lots of incredulity all around. Much more than the Java concurrency book, which wasn't easy either.

As I said, most would probably say the government does not do enough. My point was just that the comment could be seen as erring towards conspiracy theories, because it's quite common to hear "the government is against you". Maybe it was not op's intent.

I don't think this is a significant issue for most US restaurants. Except for nicer establishments, menus tend to be printouts that get replaced semi-regularly anyways.

(Nicer restaurants also replace their menus regularly, but for different reasons: presenting a spotless and seasonal/rotating menu is part of their value proposition.)
I love how you put it. As born and raised in a communist eastern European country I can attest to how accurately it depicts the inefficiencies and absurdities of centrally planned economy. Seeing this kind of nonsense flourishing in the US of A is irony of the highest order.

I would like to see ads. Last time I saw some they were at least intersting (nothing to buy tomorrow, but good to know).

But with the risks involved (malicious ads and being tracked), everything is blocked. It is "risk blocking" not "ad blocking". Not seing ads is just a side-effect.

A newspaper will refuse to print unacceptable ads. Some ad-tech will deliver anything. Some websites use ads from ad-tech that delivers anything.

Maybe there is a niche market opportunity for a guaranteed-safe-notracking ad-tech company to reach the target demographic of people blocking ads to reduce risk and avoid tracking. It would require cooperation with ad-blockers to provide a switch to drop to risk-blocking though.
This isn't true.

There is a subset of servers who are vocally opposed, because they are quite happy with how things are now.

They'll parrot lines like "if you don't tip well, I have to 'pay' to serve you because the IRS estimates my tip income and taxes me based on that", and neglect to point out that the IRS will not tax you on unearned income, you just have to document what income you did make.

I've even pointed this out on HN and had multiple people then try to claim "there's no way to document cash tips to the IRS", but it took me less than 10 seconds to find IRS form 4070 (https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-access/f4070_accessible.pdf) which is just a monthly attestation.

The reality is that most servers don't want to document their tip income, because in very large part, it is significantly higher than the IRS estimate.

IMO the servers who advocate for this are doing it at the expense of their peers who are more discriminated against (like if they’re unattractive or a minority race that faces discrimination).

The history of tipping in the United States is that it was used to pay Black people less or not at all after the abolition of slavery. White service workers would get big tips and Black servers wouldn’t.

This pay gap persists to this day: https://www.outtraveler.com/eat-drink/2021/2/06/black-worker...

Most countries have a minimum weekly take home wage.

That isn't the minimum hourly wage for every hour... It is the minimum amount a person must walk away with when divided by the number of hours they worked in a week.

The difference is subtle... But it means you can be paid $6 per hour for some hours, as long as you are paid $25 for other hours in the same week.

Likewise, your employer can 'fine' you for being careless... but the fine must still ensure your pay for the week doesn't fall below the minimum.

And the employer can pay you hardly anything yet let you have very generous tips - again, as long as the total is above the minimum.
> After what's often a rather negative dining experience, it's common to be prompted for a tip of 18%, 20%, 25%, or even more when paying.

Last two mid tier restaurants I went to had the tip options as "20, 25, 30, 35%"
I think the initial reaction of many (myself included) is pretty negative just based on the niche these products fall into. Something about a Twitter Influencer selling various products to other Twitter Influencers to manage their own business hyping is a bit off putting.

After some reflection I don't think this is better or worse than any other niche you might market towards.
My only complaint is that double clicking links only selects up until the //
glob plays grep's role here. No need for a pipe.

If you want to run a shell pipeline that is more challenging to port to pure Python, then you could the shell directly:

S.run("a | b", shell=True)

You could emulate it in Python using the subprocess module but it would be more verbose. It depends on specific use-case whether it is worth the trouble.

Calling the shell pipeline from Python gets you the best of both worlds: a shell one liner is used as a concise domain specific language to run commands , and more complex logic, proper error handling, etc is left to Python.
> 3) Even with tips, workers can't make ends meet as housing and other basic living costs have gone through the roof. There's a nationally recognized worker shortage, and it's because even taking extra shifts and providing exceptional service isn't bringing in enough TIPs to make ends meet, so workers are leaving or switching to other industries. Which makes the service worse when you do eat out.

Service staff are already guaranteed minimum wage. If there tips don't exceed the difference, the restaurant has to make it up.

Do you have service staff friends/family? I recommend going and talking to a few of them and ask if they were to make a minimum wage (again...something they already do, but for sake of conversation, let's take your position) at the expense of optional tipping, if would they prefer that. I can just about guarantee you 100% of them will say no.

> That $10 sandwich and drink combo from 2020 is now $16 + tax + fee + tip = >$20 and now you're getting the same thing for more than twice the price

This is the real reason people hate tipping. It's the consumers, not the staff that hate it. Which, I agree with, btw; I just don't need to convince myself that I'm "helping the little guy" to take that position. I just hate subsidizing a restaurant's payroll and having to play some social dance of giving someone 15% "gratuity", even if their service sucks ass.

Are those people in anyway the average? Sounds more like the exception to me and thus not really the problem or solution.
The harsh truth is that the occasional false positive doesn't affect their bottom line even slightly. Unless a false positive is some social engineering genius that can stir up a shitstorm of bad PR, they can be silently ignored forever.

You're the sacrifice that they're willing to make to build their social media, and if you don't think it's fair... no one cares.

Even if this somehow offends people, those people will never notice that it actually happened.

Probably, this means that sane people should want the government to regulate at least those services considered essential to life to require appeals systems. Not TikTok, but I've heard of people losing access to Amazon forever. There are people for whom Amazon is essential, there are no local alternatives. And if the people wrongly permabanned from it ever overlap with those who can hardly live without it, then we have a big problem.
iCloud Drive silently deletes your content
Write access to .bashrc is plenty to very sneakily get sudo access tho.

alias sudo='./.my-evil-sudo-binary'

And wait till the next time the user authenticates, they wont see anything amiss and you just silently delete the alias after you’ve got the sudo password.

Also even without root dumping .ssh and the browser’s cookie jar is probably plenty to achieve lateral movement and you don’t need root for that.
It also explains why service staff simultaneously play the underdog of impoverished and selfless, while resisting the urge to move to a more regular taxed income mechanism.

That's the whole point of fly by wire.

In an old school plane yes, the pilot would have to compensate for this because the pilot is in the feedback loop.

In fly by wire systems there is an IMU with gyros, accelerometers and magnetometers. The plane servos itself to a heading and velocity, and the pilot provides imput that changes the target position in space, and then the plane decides how to hey to the target position.

People always had actual bargaining power. Why do you think the Far Right, wayyyyyyy back when we were kids (or before you were born, depending on what gen you're in) ran a specific actor, who was previously known for trying to run the Screen Actors Guild into the ground while still being an actor and part of it?

They were afraid that the average man might get some ideas, so they got Reagan elected to fix that.

This war on America started a long time ago because they're afraid of, apparently, paying people a living wage even though its the law, and has been so since 1933 when FDR signed it in. They still fight it like the law doesn't apply to them, somehow, magically.
> The anti microwave comments in this thread are kinda wild considering if you put plastic in other cooking methods it's even worse.

What other cooking methods involves using plastic?

I use glass for everything microwave, not because I'm worried about plastic, but mostly because a) I have mostly glass storage containers, b) I feel that it contain the heat better, and c) they keep heat _out_ better.

The latter is probably the most important thing. Easier to handle, and have a shorter cool-down time before putting it into the fridge.
Very cool! Is it still using cooperative multitasking? My understanding was MOO verbs/tasks run until the verb does suspend/fork or an input() call happens or something like that, or until the verb runs out of "ticks" and is killed by the VM. How do you do it?

I would like to see the actual quote from Patricia Rankin because [challenging] people's assumptions is not at all what science is about.

Its blown my mind coming from the tipping capital of the world (Vegas) to Portland. The attitude when you don't give a 20%+ tip is so annoying . In Vegas no one ever shot me a glance or gave a sarcastic "thanks", however here its been shocking how entitled they are especially at the food carts and bars.
That was a lot of words for an article that says, "Our funders hate this guy."
IMO there is inherent complexity in the task of creating dynamic user interfaces and reactivity/signals/directives are different tools to deal with this complexity by imposing different mental model on top.

In any case, if Imba offers a new approach it fails to communicate this on the landing page and focuses on code compression instead. To me it reads like Imba is a re-pack of status quo approach (React + Next.js) that focuses on compressed syntax. This is actually a good thing, I just wonder, whether a new language is necessary to achieve this.

Huh somehow one of the closest US security allies, Five Eyes member NZ, isn’t subjugated by US security apparatus whims… almost like it has nothing to do with the US deciding other nations’ security regimes.

Yes there are dozens of suicide attacks per year, and yes they are overwhelmingly throughout the Muslim world (not merely the Middle East).

Security’s role is twofold: deterrence and prevention. You have no way of knowing what the deterrent effects are, which is why I asked if you’re of the belief that there were only 19 people willing to do what happened on 9/11 and we just happened to get rid of them all on the same day.

Do you believe that or not?
Looks like a marketing bullshit article.
I see, you believe that the statement "Amazon goes RTO even though it has no data about productivity impact from WFH" is a counterexample to the assertion "No company does RTO despite the data showing increased productivity from WFH", this makes your arguments more rational for somebody who accepts that, indeed, Amazon having no data proves that it acted against the data (which it did not have but, I imagine, in some philosophical sense it's also "data", and if you really, really want it, that "data" also shows WFH increased productivity by the virtue of not showing the decreased productivity, even though it also does not show that e.g. not putting employees in front of a firing squad for missing some KPI bar would decreased productivity too).
