> What incentives do you have to keep putting in any effort?

Your paycheck?

You can still be fired on the spot if you are not doing your job. Though it might require a warning depending on the jurisdiction.

> Aren't you in a weird limbo for months/years on end where you don't know if your position will be terminated?

At least in Finland the legal requirement for the negotiations is 2 weeks and usually they take exactly that long. It can be even shorter if both sides agree.

The 2 week period also works well in a lot of low paying fields where you are paid every 2 weeks. Basically meaning that everyone knows they are getting their next paycheck in full (outside of a proper bankruptcy which is pretty much the only way out of these rules)
I'm kind of annoyed they kept it under wraps for ten years just for the purposes of sniping anyone that beat the Carolina reaper.

Super glad Ed's out there doing the hard work of developing/stabilizing new varieties though.
If a billboard starts advertising meth, you obviously go after the meth dealer. But the billboard owner—who painted the ad onto it—should also have liability (albeit civil).
I have seen people point out that this confusing discussion can be avoided by accepting that types are purely a static property of terms (not only identifiers and literals) in source code, and that what many insist on calling dynamic types are tags, not types.
Every language above Java in that list (except possibly TypeScript) is forced by the development target or domain. JavaScript and HTML are forced by web dev. SQL is forced by databases. Python is forced by machine learning. Bash is forced by targeting UNIX.

Also there’s no such thing as “an HTML project” or “a SQL project.” So I don’t think your survey link is telling you what you seem to think it’s telling you.
There is nobody in the developed world as opposed to the government raising revenue as Americans are. That part is bipartisan, which is why Biden hasn’t meaningfully raised taxes. But Republicans go a step further and want you to suffer once a year so you don’t get complacent about the tax rates.
Or you could get together with your colleagues - unionize - and leverage the threat of leaving work en masse to negotiate better working conditions.

Why should people just have to leave the industry they have trained for because of the pigheadedness of their wannabe employers?
Unlike Apollo, React Query is pleasant to use. It is more like a small wrapper that gets out of your way.
"What incentives do you have to keep putting in any effort? Doesn't this lead to massive amount of corporate theft? In the US you are typically "shown the door" when your employment is terminated to minimize the possibility of disgruntled ex-employees taking corporate IP with them."

The incentives to keep doing a good job are your intrinsic motivation to do a decent job, your professional reputation and receiving good references for your upcoming job applications. Doesn't the american approach of showing employees the door right after being fired to a poor transfer of their responsibilities?

>The anti-tax activists think that if taxpaying is too easy, voters will be less likely to resist the federal government’s growth. Both want to make it as painful as possible for you to do your taxes yourself.

This sounds a lot like the logic the US government uses with regards to normalizing relations with Cuba. They think that by keeping up an embargo, that the Cuban people will rise up and overthrow their communist government. It hasn't worked for over 60 years, but surely any day now it will...
I would have fallen like you. But because I use dark mode / a dark theme, this is displayed as a white dot on a black background and does not look like dust on my screen. I clearly see it. It is a white light-emitting pixel, not mistaken with a light-blocking speck of dust similar to a black pixel.

I had never imagined dark mode as a security enhancement :)

I will go with Wanting by Luke Burgis. It makes the works of Rene Girard accessible. For me, it made me conscious of how much of our nature is simply copying others. Basically, one should make a conscious effort to select who to copy. Also, because we copy it means we would have a desire for the same object in which conflict can arise. We can realize this and take steps to mitigate possible conflict.

A surprising insight of the book is that having hierarchies reduces conflict. I wrote a summary of the book here: https://www.chestergrant.com/summary-wanting-by-luke-burgis

But we need these alphabets to allow people of various culture to be able to have url in their native language, and I'm not sure how browser could help disambiguate all the possible Unicode symbol, afaik while there are some font to make each symbol as distinct as possible (I think they are used in licence plate), none of them support all of Unicode.

Also, while I can agree that url are "security-critical", the same applies to email or even just names, and we definitely need Unicode for those.
Show HN: Linkitall – create dependency-graphs of ideas
What is the structure of knowledge?

It's a broad question, and finding a structure that suits everyone is no easy task. Consider this: a backend developer might view knowledge as a table accessible with different keys, while a teacher might perceive it as a book, complete with chapters, sections, and subsections—a linear structure, yet with a tree-shaped Table of Contents for efficient reference.

Generally, the structure we require depends on (a) the data involved and (b) the purpose at hand. Let's narrow it down: What's a suitable structure for teaching scientific knowledge? In the context of a specific course, one can assert that certain ideas are more fundamental than others. There's a hierarchy of ideas, where complex ideas build upon simpler ones, and those, in turn, rest on basic concepts. In simpler terms, with the exception of a few obvious or axiomatic ideas, every other idea relies on something else. Organizing all these ideas into a graph based on their dependency structure creates a dependency graph.

Using graphical structure (including dependency graphs) to arrange ideas for presentation or teaching is nothing new. There are several tools out there, but none of them really worked for my use-case. So I wrote a tool in Golang which will take a graph definition in YAML format and produce a graph output in HTML. I am a noob in Golang. I am using python for work, so I wanted something else for this "hobby" project, and ended up with Go.

This is the tool: https://github.com/charstorm/linkitall

Here are a few example outputs:

I suggest kindness and empathy in dealing with those less fortunate.

Aboriginal people ARE special in Australia.

They were here for 60,000 years until we turned up.

They are deeply disadvantaged and need and deserve every possible assistance to address the terrible social issues their community faces.

Not much was being asked for here except the requirement for parliament to listen to aboriginal take on issues impacting aboriginal people.

Look, if you don’t feel the love that’s fine, but would you mind not blocking other people from trying to lift others up?

People in Australia are so selfish and greedy and grasping and unwilling to let someone else receive some kindness in case they miss out.
I use an XR20 as a daily phone and it's great. No crapware. Lots of OS updates.
"to a poor transfer of their responsibilities?"

Yes and no. People are also free to leave at any moment - so the concern is inevitable an you generally structure your responsibilities to minimize the "bus factor"
I would almost consider this a default package to use in a react application for server-side state. Any mildly complex UI will almost immediately need init/loading/error/data states, and you begin to write a wrapper that trends towards what react-query gives you. It makes it a lot easier to by default, write code that provides much better UX. The improvement there far outweighs the small amount of time it takes to learn the library and overhead it introduces.
That is just ridiculous. There is a viable mechanism why zinc might have helped. You will not see the evidence if you do not look for it.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7781367/

There have also been multiple reports linking the loss of taste or smell to zinc deficiency, either due to chemotherapy and metal chelating agents [38–40], or due to nutritional deficiencies, especially in older populations [41,42], also caused by medical procedures such as dialysis [43]. As a result, zinc has been proposed in the treatment of taste disorders [44,45]; however, zinc supplementation for chemotherapy-induced loss of smell or taste, which is often transient, has not led to improvements in this condition

If you happen to be running Ubuntu, or are willing to run an Ubuntu VM, the 3 scripts and instructions I have over at [1] should be enough to get you a working Neovim instance with the LazyVim "distro", which itself has built in Copilot support. And a lot of other command line niceties too!

Genetics absolutely has something to do with it. If a non-native Australian came along and started self-identifying as an aboriginal they'd be lambasted, and excluded from this advisory body as it's not meant for them.

States and nationalities =/= ethnicities. Someone can be an American by being a citizen of that country, past or present. Someone can be Californian by being a resident of that state, past or present. Someone is Aboriginal Australian by virtue of being born to another Aboriginal Australian. Nation states and ethnic identities are utterly different concepts. When I fill in a government form, I am a UK citizen, and identify as a British person; not as any of the other multiple options available to me. There are two separate boxes. I can become a US citizen, or a Canadian citizen, or a Mexican citizen, and identify with that nationality. I can't decide one day to become an Arab or Gypsy ethnicity, even if I lived on the Arabian peninsula or replaced my car with a horse and trap.

Making statistical inferences from data is nuanced and complicated if the thing you're interested in doesn't just pop-out from simple descriptive statistics treatments (histograms, box-plots, scatterplots, simple linear models).

There are some islands of sanity:

- NIST has a great resource (https://www.itl.nist.gov/div898/handbook/index.htm). Don't be alarmed by the retro html appearance. It's actually meticulously maintained and contains reproduceable examples with data. The plain language is such a relief compared to other references.

- "Statistics for Experimenters" the book by George Box et al, is a great resource that's fairly comprehensive in my opinion. Good, clear writing. It seems to be widely available online (don't know if that's intentional).
Low interest rates have been terrible for buyers.. Low interest rates are a huge part of why there is such a massive bubble in the first place.

>Who are the people who deserve this task?

Where does "deserving" enter the picture? People do work for pay, not based on whatever they deserve to do such work or not (except in the sense that they have the skills to do it).

It's not like a housecleaner or a burger flipper "deserve" to be doing what they do. A paid task is not an award or a punishment, it's something people do in exchange for money, because they have the skills for it and not for other stuff, or because they like it, or because for whatever reasons they can't find other line of work.

Besides, "it shouldn't have been done or added to our plate in the first place" doesn't necessarily mean it must be done by someone else. Perhaps it's just busywork, or we can just not do it and make do without whatever it was supposed to give us. Or find a way to achieve our existing goals without it.

I’m not really sure what one is supposed to take away from this rant. (It’s also quite old so some things have changed in the years that followed.)

In the article, PHK seem to assume that it’s a good idea that each user compile all their applications locally. I know this is the norm in some places (e.g. Gentoo?), but is it really a reasonable expection of users in general? I consider myself a power user, but if I want to install a tool, in most cases I just fetch it using Homebrew and I will get a binary, so no need to compile it at all. Compilation and packaging might be complex for some of those tools, but it’s “out-sorced”. IMHO a system such as macOS + Homebrew works well from the end-user perspective.

Do I say that just because I’m lost in the bazaar? Have I even seen one of these cathedrals that PHK refers to? Not sure. What would count as a cathedral? HP-UX? Symbolics’ Genera? Would OpenBSD count?

Nokia makes all kinds of telecommunications gear that is not consumer facing.

One time I was working in an old Cold War bunker in Finland that was being used as a datacenter. Really wild place with servers in rows in cavernous caves. The toilet paper dispenser in the men's room was made by Nokia ;)

A Swedish friend of mine has a chainsaw guard made by Nokia.

Have you ever done your taxes? For individuals, it’s easier if you have a high income because many of the deductions and credits phase out and are capped by AGI. Dependent care FSA versus dependent care credits, student loan interest deductions, etc. Most of the questions the software asks you aren’t “Warren buffet” deductions.
If they could redo just one scene it would be where they're approaching some peril and there's warning signs in the background (like, Keep out!, Certain Death!).

Starting from this year I think that in France if you do not react then it is assumed that you completed your taxes as described in the tax sites.

The rationale is that for the vast, vast, vast majority of people there is nothing to do so it does not make much sense to bother them at all.

A lot of things changed when we finally moved to have taxes automatically deduced form the salary (before that you had to pay separately three times a year, and later you could make it a monthly payment). This means in practical terms zero contact wth your taxes when you are in the general situation.
Aren't you in a weird limbo for months/years on end where you don't know if your position will be terminated?

Isn't that every day at a job in an At-Will state in the US?

Also if you quit of your own volition while the unions are negotiating you get nothing. If you wait until the unions are done negotiating and get laid off you get several month of severance pay. In fact quitting while layoffs are being discussed has to be among the dumbest financial decision you can make.
Ask HN: Why is there no API for YC's workatastartup.com?
The UX is not optimal so I wanted to write a nicer frontend for it (at least for personal use but was thinking to open source it at some point). Was surprised to see they have no API and are actually taking quite strong measures to restrict machine access to the job postings. Why? If the goal is to promote their startups and help them find talent, what's the point in restricting access to the job postings data? (I could understand this for a platform like linkedin whose whole business model is to aggregate postings and have companies pay for them, but here it's not the case at all?)
We use Gitpod (https://gitpod.io/) for our eCommerce Magento development tasks across all of our projects at Develo (https://www.develodesign.co.uk).

This gives our support developers instant access to a fully configured development environment across all of our client sites, it really helps speed things up, previously there would be a min of 1-2hrs local setup for a new developer to work on a project, now it's 5 mins and guaranteed no problems getting going.
So we can spread support developers across more projects and not worry about local setup.

Well, it has worked fine thus far. So, there's that.

Not sure what kind of "belief system" you have deduced I have, based on that I'm against the hype of Mars missions, or I don't like VC-culture.

It hardly seems enough to deduce any general belief system, much less one that has wide consequences in personal life, as was implied. If anything, both sound more like common sense, or at least not being pro-hype or sucking up to the rich, than a belief system.
