I wouldn't describe it as a matter of fairness, thinking deeper about it.

We're really just mortgaging quarterly earnings for those with major residential real estate holdings (like pension funds paying out to those born during the Baby Boom) with future economic growth at this point. When asked if they'd rather have sustainable growth that will see them able to put food on their tables 20 years from now or make the line go up over the next 90 days, capital has chosen the latter. That _will_ have a consequence down the line, and it won't be a good one.
Do you think "average everyday people" actually do that?
I've been beaten more times than I can count by gangs as a child for being effeminate (one of them breaking my right arm that's still crooked) and stripped naked once. I can post photographic evidence if it's ok by HN's rules.

I am fine with it, apart from my arm being crooked I don't mind, I even think it made me a more resilient person. I know my feelings can be offensive but I'm being honest. I empathize with people that have been traumatized by this kind of violence but I wasn't.

My father was also beaten by the police as a kid for playing with a wind vane because it resembles a swastika.

I still think the UN fails by putting limb mutilation and immolation under the same category of being beaten with the back of a gun.
using guided ballistic missiles in war is indeed a scary precedent, but as the article explains, it is a precedent that was set 81 years ago https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V-2_rocket and in particular iraq launched lots of guided ballistic missiles into israel in the first gulf war

the newsworthy part is not the ballistic missile launch but the interception in space, where velocity is lowest but maneuvering is most difficult

though to me the biggest news was that yemen's houthi rebels have ballistic missiles now
> Excessive near-work literally causes myopia

Evidence shows that not getting enough sunlight when young is what causes myopia, as there is a gene involved in stopping the process of natural eye lengthening that is enabled by sunlight. This need not necessarily correlate to excessive work, as children don't play outside for a variety of reasons.

That is just paying extra to lower the principal. How does that help if you have a high principal? You are still paying it.

With a low principal, high interest rate mortgage, refinancing to a lower interest rate reduces the amount you were going to pay, without you having to spend any money.

For example, lots of people that bought in 2015 to 2019 at higher interest rates made out great, they paid a lower price for their house, then refinanced in 2020 to lower their interest costs (and sometimes even got paid to refinance).
Macbook costs like 3x compared to competitors. For example, Apple M1 8 Core score on cpubenchmark is about 14000. If you look for non-Apple laptops with equivalent CPU score, they would cost around $450. And they support Linux.

The only good thing in Macbook is display, which covers more than 100% of sRGB color space and has giantic resolution. I wish it could be bought separately and installed into a normal laptop.
Why can't you access it from any of the tv boxes (ie Apple TV or any other) and just use the TV itself as one big screen, a bunch of pixels and nothing else?

The hyperbole around the issue of CSAM is starting to outweigh the threat itself. The crimes committed against a minority of the population isn't worth this much drama. We don't even pay this much attention to murdered children.

This isn't going to unite international rivals against it any more than an asteroid hurtling toward the planet. Only the western world gives a shit about it, which means it's easily weaponized by anybody outside of it.

Rather than backdooring every device on the planet, a more practical solution would be to just take away kids' phones and chain them to the radiator. To protect the children from CSAM, lock them up.

We don't like to admit it but face the facts: children are property as far as the State is concerned. Same as any other asset, livestock and firearms, they can be "taken" away from you and "given" to others for dividends (which, when you think about it, describes the act of trafficking itself).

You don't protect your home by unlocking everyone else's. That sort of "solution" makes you an actual menace to society.
Feels like the researchers were going for a race/gender angle but it didn’t come through in the data so the result was just super vague “pictures often end up as tie breakers”. Maybe the pictures give hiring managers some utils because they show the person is real or something? Also not clear what control variables they used. Overall just not super clear or convincing. Shoulda done an experiment — although that would have probably wasted even more human capital.

I wonder if there is a difference, as far as housing market fluctuations go, between an aging person who passes away and leaves their home to their heirs and one who sells their home before they pass away in order to fund their retirement/healthcare.

Obviously the outcome for the family is very different and worth examining, but for the moment I'm considering the broader impact on the housing market.
I suggest you listen to some of Maria Schneider's work. It fuses jazz, classical, and even rock (she collaborated with David Bowie on his last album).

And Schneider is just one counterexample to your thesis.

The consequences are consistent. If they engage in an illegal merger and someone sues them they'll be subject to the remedy of that court.

It's really not that complicated. That's how civil and business law is typically enforced.

Your premise is that when a business deal is "approved" it's all set. But that's not really how things generally work, your premise is dubious. The real way things work is people do things and then if they cause unlawful harm they end up getting sued, sometimes by the justice department sometimes by a class action sometimes by someone else.
Scared of copyright, ironically?

At least link to the Wikipedia page about the album, which is brave enough to show the album cover.
Exactly. The guy was like "Well, I found a huge nugget of gold in the Klondike while everyone around me was made destitute, therefore abandoning your family to stand in a freezing river for two years is objectively good."

Both have been documented to have happened, yet somehow you didn't seem to think that should be taken into account when considering estimates for cooking and pissing.

Their own company, using a handful of additional investors.

Or they'd sell to other investors, who are using a leveraged buyout, in order to get a better selling price than they would have otherwise. Meanwhile the new investors would take enough in income to cover the amount they put down, plus some, and then the company would eventually fail because it had too much debt.

Breaking the law?
Isn't this solvable just by using types and instances rather than just calling top level/static functions? If you have a "replace" function off of String and use a Pattern type instead of a raw string, the compiler will enforce the correct type and ordering.

val p = Pattern("https://[^/]*")
val in = "https://google.com/some/path"
val path = in.replace(p, "") // /some/path

In fact this specific example is solved just by having a dedicated type, for example URI:

val path = URI("https://google/com/some/path").path; // /some/path

This feels like to me an answer in search of a problem.

My biggest problem with the whole mentality is that most high profile shootings are still being carried out with unsecured methods, e.g. the Paris shooting from 2015 was organized via bare SMS. If law enforcement can't catch criminals using the unsecured channels how can they argue at all that the encryption is to blame?

Yes, shortly have it said it was resolved I still was unable to access so assumed the fix was still slowing rolling out, or was infact still ongoing contrary to the status update which seems to be the case. Wouldn't call this "Another" outage rather they they just errenously that the existing issue was resolved.
They want to sell them _at a profit_ and if the market doesn't cool enough, they'll be able to do that no matter what, at the expense of the future economic activity of the people who can afford it.

As for the second point, simple. They just refuse to renegotiate loans. Same as 2007-2009. They've gotten far pickier about who it is they loan out to, too, so it's less likely to result in the foreclosure of the home than it was during that time period. The flip side of that is that there's a shrinking pool of families that can afford to take that sort of cost on.
I really don't get what is it that people like so much about iMessage that they use it instead of WhatsApp or even Telegram or Signal. I really don't get it.

Interesting Bugs Caught by ESLint's no-constant-binary-expression (2022)
These are popular ideas in many places, but here are just some things to consider:

1a) If you town bans short-term rentals but the next town over doesn't, then guess what - the investors just migrate and you haven't actually changed much.

1b) Highest and best use is a really important concept. There are properties that make for not great permanent dwellings but are great short-term rentals. When you put artificial restrictions in place, it doesn't actually help supply.

2) There is so much money here in the US that even banning foreign ownership doesn't matter much. I live in a tourist / second-home market and it's people from the region who are buying up the investments.

3a) My community went to relaxed zoning years ahead of the state. Helped a little, but not as much as everyone hoped. Turns out that it is still expensive to build multi-family, ADUs, etc and not a fit for every life need.

3b) While zoning changes are good, I continue to hammer on income / jobs as a bigger factor in many markets. Don't come at me with SFO or some other example - every market is going to be different. But in places like mine, the make up of the economy is a bigger factor to affordability than zoning or these other changes. Fixing the whole regional economy is not a simple problem and it doesn't campaign well in political stump speeches like "fix zoning" does.
> due to the nature of US suburbs

The US is a big place. Lots of different suburbs.

> everything you might want to go to is still at least a moderate car ride away, there's no people out and about because there's no reason for them to be there

Can you point at specific places like this? Google street view links?

Every suburb I've lived in the US I can walk to just about everything I need, kids walk to playground and parks, friends houses, etc.

I'm curious to see these suburbs where one can't walk anywhere.

I hated Brutalism before playing Control. Just look at how intimidating the Boston City Hall fortress is, as it looms over you, while you try to even find the entrance.

But Control's architectural and furnishings atmosphere was very appealing, and it warmed me towards the Boston and Cambridge buildings that I'd previously disliked.

The NOVA classification of foods has four groups [1], with the definition of Ultraprocessed as

> Formulations of ingredients, mostly of exclusive industrial use, made by a series of industrial processes, many requiring sophisticated equipment and technology (hence ‘ultra-processed’). Processes used to make ultra-processed foods include the fractioning of whole foods into substances, chemical modifications of these substances, assembly of unmodified and modified food substances using industrial techniques such as extrusion, moulding and pre-frying; use of additives at various stages of manufacture whose functions include making the final product palatable or hyper-palatable; and sophisticated packaging, usually with plastic and other synthetic materials. Ingredients include sugar, oils or fats, or salt, generally in combination, and substances that are sources of energy and nutrients that are of no or rare culinary use such as high fructose corn syrup, hydrogenated or interesterified oils, and protein isolates; classes of additives whose function is to make the final product palatable or more appealing such as flavours, flavour enhancers, colours, emulsifiers, and sweeteners, thickeners, and anti-foaming, bulking, carbonating, foaming, gelling, and glazing agents; and additives that prolong product duration, protect original properties or prevent proliferation of microorganisms.

The FAO also recommends that law should mandate that ultraprocessed food be labelled as such.

In the meantime, you can also just search for a particular food item on Openfoodfacts to see its classification. For instance, Nutella [2] is ultraprocessed.

“Some reason” is you talk to the thing about anything and it answers and a lot of the time its answers make sense. I’d like to remind you that one year ago this was sci-fi!
My friends and I made levels of our school campus dorms, etc. for both Doom and Quake. This was all prior to Columbine and nobody thought it was strange in the slightest; on the contrary everyone thought it was awesome (faculty included). A couple of years later, and who knows how it would have been perceived or if we would have even felt that it was appropriate.

We only had two buildings with an architectural style that favored the game environments though. They were both built as "modern" buildings some time in the 70's. Somewhat unsurprisingly the school has since torn them down at great expense and replaced them with buildings that are stylistically compatible with the rest of campus.

Those of us who've been around for a long time know that's pretty much how Java worked as well. All of the non-technical "manager" magazines started running advertorials (no doubt heavily astroturfed by Sun) about how great Java was. Those managers didn't know what Java was either. All they knew (or thought they knew) was that all the "smart managers" were using Java (according to their "smart manager" magazines), and the rest was history.
The MyQ app sucks, though. Besides the dark pattern ad-forcing they do, I've also had the thing redraw while I was holding the button to open a door. Which meant the wrong door opened entirely - one that happens to be 20 miles from where I was standing. I have had this happen multiple times, it's ridiculous.
Eating at a ~500 calorie deficit is not starving.
I've been idly wondering if it's worth it to apply to YC next batch with the idea of launching dozens of 550AU missions for solar-gravitational-lens HD photographs of nearby exoplanets. I've been wondering a lot recently about our visibility to potential life out there; they may well be watching Earth in HD since we can imagine how we might do that too. So I think a great step would be launching a bunch of long missions that will eventually return us HD video of exoplanets within like 200 ly or more distant maybe. That will reveal a lot of info about close-by worlds and may produce copious evidence for life on other planets.

Would be very expensive, take a few decades at least, and the profit comes from...governments? Haha not sure about that yet. Might have to pitch it as a planetary defense company and also build tech to zap asteroids etc.

Basically, NASA is doing the great hard science obviously, but is outdone in pacing and tech by SpaceX and other startups; NASA plans to send 1-5? 550 AU missions eventually. But they're in no rush. I want to rush it.

I installed WhatsApp for the first time in my life just a few days ago because I needed it to communicate with some event organizers at my current holiday destination. Once I'm home again I will uninstall it again and will probably not have a need for it before I travel somewhere else where it's used.

For the record, I am from Denmark which is in the EU. If people here use WhatsApp they are either expats or they need it to communicate with foreigners.

Talking and using aren’t the same thing. Did you ever see people using one of the crypto ATMs or buying anything with a crypto credit card? Especially outside of the Bay Area? If not then it’s likely a marketing expense / stunt, just the same as the commercials starring Tom Brady or Larry David. Create the perception that crypto is mainstream, and people will want to jump onboard just because of FOMO.
First instinct: I would personally start with Nextcloud and then fill in the blanks. It covers a lot of ground, file sharing, collaborative document editing, calendars, contacts.

You don't explicitly mention some of these, but they're inevitably part of all businesses.

Odoo was the best self hosted ERP last time I looked (although it wasn't recent). IIRC it handles point of sale as well as online purchases. Best if you use it for inventory mgmt too. Some components are paid.

One of my favorite resources on the internet is https://awesome-selfhosted.net/ You'll find hidden gems in all the categories you listed.

Edit: actually, first instinct is to follow philomath_mn's advice and self host the minimum amount of services. Even with a small off-the-shelf NAS collecting video footage there's always some maintenance going on. This is a fine hobby, but can be a distraction from the real thing.
I also often think of this when I’m allowing yet another app to do something that I clearly want it to do.

“I see you’ve clicked the documents folder via this apps open dialog. Do you want to give it permission to access that folder that you just clicked on to access” infuriating.

What’s so annoying is that these constant alerts make the system potentially less secure as you get notification blindness. Same with how often iOS pops up the password dialog, you get so used to entering your password that it takes conscious effort to not do it by default an actually make sure it’s a legit password box and not a phish.
