There isn’t really any ambiguity about the two terms. That’s a dog whistle by people who want to see racism where there is none.

They usually say something along the lines of “so when black and brown skinned people go to Europe they’re immigrants. But when white people go to Japan they’re called expats?”.

The omitted difference being that most white people going to Japan do not stay permanently.

The japanese also differentiate between 移民 and 駐在員 (expat)
I'm glad our regulators have teeth. I'm just annoyed with these headlines "Largest auto recall of 2.2 million cars" which gives images of piles of teslas being sent to service centers to be retrofitted when you can pay a single software engineer a few weeks of salary to solve the problem.
We're through the looking glass here, people!
Perhaps, but it's still important to draw attention to mistakes, for transparency and accountability.

Additionally, other "recalls" for other car companies may similarly be minor software changes. The only distinguishing factor with Tesla is OTA deployment.

To be fair to metronet, aside from that and some hiccups during the initial install, I've been pretty happy with the service. The speed is fantastic, and it's been fairly reliable.

The price keeps slowly going up, but that seems to be par for the course with ISPs.
The tradeoff for brexit was increased political autonomy at the expense of trade relations. When companies said they'd reduce investment if brexit went through, they weren't lying. Investors hate uncertainty. It's not politics to point that out.

The issue with energy/food prices and mainland Europe is a separate issue that is also impacting UK. But lack of investment is so obviously tied to brexit that the only partisans are the people claiming it's not related.

Absolutely anecdotal but a jaw alignment mouth guard worked for me.

ZQuiet is that one I have: https://zquiet-usa.com/

The idea is to force your jaw into a slightly different position which keeps your tongue from falling back and blocking your airway.

I tried it before a sleep machine because its like $50. It works well enough and my wife doesnt complain about snoring anymore if I sleep on my back.
Some sort of NAT64 is probably a better idea, because that applies below the TLS layer.

When people complain about IPv6 and IPv4 being incompatible, the fact that you can establish a cross-protocol TCP+TLS session with just a NAT is a remarkable counterexample. It could've been a lot worse.
What these are is evidence of your parent comment's point that this isn't direct moderator action, rather a combination of algorithms and user flags.

Most likely, people flagged the Germany story because it has a sensational title and they likely aren't from Germany and so wouldn't have context to know whether it's overblown.

I'm confident that Vx.dev got flagged by a bunch of people because they're tired of LLM stories (as repeatedly attested in this thread).

Based on the ratio of comments to upvotes, I suspect the Open Source Builds and Ford discussions ran afoul of the overheated discussion detector. Usually when the ratio gets too lopsided the software automatically drops the post off the front page, because that's an indicator that a lot of people are arguing in the thread without actually reading or enjoying the article.
> the next ouch-hot-coffee-in-paper-cup wacko

Nitpick, but this specific example, despite its place in pop culture, wasn't a case of a lawsuit-happy wacko. McDonalds screwed up, after being warned they were screwing up and failing to correct, and someone got badly hurt.
Whether it's fair or not, I believe that people of a certain age that are still "generalists" in their own estimations give off vibes to management or senior engineers that they aren't disciplined enough to "specialize". I can't stress enough that this is just my observation and personal experience, and not a judgment necessarily... but it really was the case for me and I bet that's the case for a lot of people in this situation.

For what it's worth, I grinded and went back to a state school for industrial engineering and wouldn't you know, my management/architect prospects improved immensely, even as a super senior just now in his 400-level coursework. Obviously not everyone has the resources or opportunity to do such a thing, but if you do, for the love of God consider it deeply.

I always wanted to own a business.

So I thought I'd get a job at a big corp, see if I can learn how business works, save up some money, and then start a company. That's exactly what I did, but it was a big mistake.

There's no better (other?) way to learn than to do. And you learn about a hundred times more and faster if it's your business versus a job, no matter how high-powered.

I should've started before I even left high school and simply failed many times. All's well that ends well though!
Ahhh, so the company is required to put all the juice in the headline, to save you a click, so they don't get your view. The current headline provides factual information and is in no way clickbait. As far as NYT Post headlines go... this has got the be the least egregious. If you want to be informed, RTFA. Why should we reorganize society for the laziest individual? That is the path to Idiocracy.
FWIW, journalists literally don’t write their own headlines.

That’s an editor or sub-editor’s domain.

I don't have a problem with users building things like this because the principles by which HN works are all easy enough to explain and defend—just remember that anything this complex is inevitably a mess, so you need to have high tolerance for messiness if you want to understand it accurately.

However, it's important to correct inaccuracies like the one mentioned here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39231537. Robin89, can you please fix the text? I know it was just a mistaken good-faith assumption but it's super wrong.

Also, it would make it easier for me to respond to the questions here if you'd link the HN IDs on your page to the actual HN threads. Currently they link to social-protocols.org. Obviously you can link to whatever you want but I'm having trouble tracing the questions here. Everyone has their own list of "what happened to story X, Y, Z, and what about W and V and J too" and while I'm happy to answer all those in principle, there are physical limits on how many I can work through.

I'm going to be in meetings for most of the next few hours but I'll try to answer questions in this thread later, assuming I don't drown in it.
It’s a bit hard to say that it’s an osprey done right when it’s so much less. Not sure Valor would have been a consideration (or indeed a possibility) back in the 80s.

It’s an osprey done with a smaller scope, less capability, and 30 years later (thus having drawn from the osprey’s design and operational experience).
Not sure yet. I got a starling hub, which makes my google devices HomeKit compatible. So maybe something by Abode... haven't thought it through yet.

Glad the industry is moving towards Matter / Thread - but things not quite there yet.
PCI is the most checklist framework around. SOC 2 can be a checklist audit, depending on how much effort your internal compliance team puts into it. I've never had SOC 2 be really a checklist in the way PCI is. SOC 2 requires you to design and write your own controls and scope in or out different aspects of the business. SOC 2 does include monitoring and stuff like that.

The difference really is point in time vs period over time audits. PCI is a point in time audit, SOC 2 is a period over time audit. So for SOC 2 you do need monitoring controls, and then they test that control over the entire period (often 6-12 months). So you are monitoring the control effectiveness over a longer period of time with SOC 2. And even PCI has some period over time controls you need to demonstrate.

From the outside all compliance will seem like checkboxes to most people once controls are established. Because really the goal for most of the business is to make sure the control they interact with doesn't break, and the compliance team will likely give a list of things that the business can't afford to have broken. Which does seem like a checklist similar to PCI. But really, only PCI is straight up a checklist, as you don't really get to decide your controls.
Yes it's a bit undercooked on the Wiki.

> especially on the occupied territories (Soviet Republics)

A majority of these republics were founded by the USSR by carving them out of RSFSR, without the regard of wishes of people who ended up split by these borders.

I guess its karma when USSR wanted to be the example of affirmative action socialist state ran by ethnic minorities, only to get framed for imperialism by the autonomous republics it has created.

I don't think we can abolish parties, but I think reducing the damages of a two party system starts with proper campaign finance reform. The two parties have considerably more money than other politicians. This means a few things:

- 3rd parties can't compete

- Campaign spending spirals upwards because of the consolidation of money

- Regular people can't run without party support

- Politicians get campaign money in exchange for giving in on policy

- Lobbyists can consolidate their efforts (it's easier to buy one or two parties than many)
That rule does not generally apply to HN meta debates, which this is, so it's a bit of a corner case. If there was a duplicate of this story on the front page tomorrow, I'd expect HN to honor the user flags on it.

I will occasionally flag things that will result in discussions that are always the same because I'm tired of them. Stories about tipping at restaurants or Trump or Biden, for example -- literally every argument for or against has been made and there's nothing new or interesting to say. But I'm more likely to hide them.
Looks cool! Very early impression is that i like it.

- I'd appreciate some ways to exhaust the list, though. Ie being able to just listen to yesterdays news and get a start-to-finish experience.

- I love the playback. Feels very natural, sounds good.

- The length of each post feels great. Just slightly longer than reading titles on something like Reddit or w/e, but not so long that i'm feeling much - if any - cost in reading/listening to posts.

I ponder this too. Very interesting modern development. And am happy to see the hughly-dogmatic line somewhat slipping.

The AH-56 Cheyenne stands out as what could have been an absurdly well equipped very fast helicopter. Speed, and a huge 360 degree underbelly turreted cannon would have been a ridiculous fire support craft. But it had a pusher prop on the back and the Air Force really really really didn't like that at the time (and was also probably hella jealous of the cannon too).

I'm not sure what makes me as ok with I am at eroding the air force's role somewhat. Some is probably seeing these great craft (AH-56, V280) & feeling like: if the army is going to have anything in the air, it should be great. It sure feels like the v280 is heralding in a massive shift in policy/what is permitted.
It was a stupid and shameful tweet. The thing that elevates this above a drunk tweet though are the "real life" postcards. Should we ignore the fact that the postcards seem very much a false flag?
They aren't wrong, just early. The reasons still hold - if you increase interest rates by 5x while holding the amount of debt constant, debt service costs are going to increase 5x. The U.S. currently spends about 13% ($659B, more than Medicaid) of its budget on interest costs; it's roughly double the $345B spent in 2020 (largely because of the higher rates). Go up to the full amount implied by rates and you're spending about $1.6T on interest, more than any other category and about 40% of total tax revenue.

It's a similar picture for corporate debt, which is continuing to hit record levels.

The missing part of the puzzle is maturity. Most corporations took advantage of the low 2021-2022 rates to roll over their debt into low-interest bonds that mature between 2025-2027. Similarly, the bulk of U.S. government securities have maturities between 2-7 years. So they're insulated from higher interest rates for at least 2 years, and can keep going business-as-usual until then (at which point, they will probably just go bankrupt). If the Fed drops rates before then, they never feel the impact. Of course, the Fed has no incentive to drop rates before then if the economy keeps on humming well and we don't see workers reallocated from zombie companies to sectors that need them, making this a game of chicken between the Fed and corporate debt.

It wouldn't surprise me if much of the market predictions for 7 rate cuts this year (while the Fed is insisting on no more than 3) is traders assuming that if they don't start cutting in earnest before the end of this year, lots of companies will go bankrupt next year, and the Fed won't let that happen, so therefore the Fed will cut. Which is logical for traders accustomed to the "Fed put", but I think the days of the Fed encouraging moral hazard might be over.
> You're saying you'd be willing to pay reparations for this and that, but those are empty words. If someone asked you to let go of your national identity, home and security you'd probably rethink the whole thing. If you are positive you're a 'settler colonist' you should voluntarily give up your possessions for the dispossessed. You have no real skin in the game.

This is pretty rude and making a lot of assumptions. Why do you think I'm not indigenous myself? I'd much rather my taxes go to reparations than to Israel and I think that's the crux of your issue. Even people on the complete opposite end of the political spectrum from me would rather see their tax dollars go to something else (like say the US border -- again opposite of me) than to Israel.
Training and deploying a mini dalle might be suitable depending on your experience, it'll likely require reading a few papers and you can expect it to take at least a few weeks. Not sure if you have the compute for it but you mention being able to get a cluster which would likely be suitable.
Seen on the door of a now-closed public toilet in Brighton: "Toilet closed, please shit in the street"
The top comment complains that the title submitted to HN is both not the original headline, and not an accurate characterization of the content of the article.

If there's no possible title to use for a submission that won't get it flagged, then clearly it's not a great article to be submitting.

And it's disingenuous for you to pretend that the issue is HN users being unwilling to reexamine the public health response to Covid-19, when the submission is clearly flouting HN's rules. (The paywall doesn't help its viability as an HN submission, either.)
I've been working from home exclusively for over 12 years. My general recommendation to people is to experiment and iterate! Find out what works for you. This list may be great for you (for me, the vast majority is spot-on), or some of it may not fit your style.

Spend a month doing something different. Rent a coworking space for a month if that's an option for you. While I largely agree with having a dedicated space (again, if that's an option for you), I also like to move around. Changing your environment can help you get unblocked. Sometimes I'll work out of my kitchen for a day. In the summer, I'll go to a local lake and work under a tree or from a beach.

Adding to the ideas of scheduling your meals and taking long lunches, take full advantage of being home for lunch and do yourself the favor of having good/healthy food options available. If I have food to make a salad in my fridge, I'll have a salad for lunch. If I'm out of healthy options, I end up eating garbage, like a bowl of sugary cereal. I try to make sure on Sunday that my fridge is stocked for the week, and as time permits, I'll grill a few chicken breasts for salads, omelettes, tacos, sandwiches, etc.

Yikes, talk about normalizing violence in political discourse.
Maybe what we should question is the relevance and importance of such metrics.
At the end of the day the number of instances that are publicly available is just clickbait in an article. What really matters is whether or not this is being actively exploited in the wild. I have my own issues with Clickbait and dramatization of vulnerabilities, but I don't think this is necessarily something that we should be concerned about (as-in I think that this vulnerability is pretty damn bad and should be patched, regardless of if there are 2k or 200k instances).

Sure some metrics around "number of instances out in the wild" will determine if threat actors put resources into developing mass-scale exploitation, but if you are patching for a company it doesn't REALLY matter.

If you are a target and are exploitable it doesn't matter how many honeypots are reporting as Confluence -- you will be breached if your Confluence server is vulnerable and exposed.

The best argument against honeypots would be that if we had some active group that was working with all affected users to patch and verify patches, if that was the case then the honeypots are a detractor. News outlets should do their best to get the best information, but this is the least-worst thing around vulnerability reporting IMO.
I agree with point 5.

Unless it's specifically forbidden by your work:

Reframe
"Working From Home" as "Remote Working".

Don't limit yourself to your home environment unless that really is the best place for you.

Eg. I have found that although I have a good setup at home (including computer chair, mech keyboard, plenty of screen estate, silence, etc etc), I will often get more done with a small screen laptop in the local cafe - just because I'm amongst people and life.

I'll also go into the office occasionally for similar reasons.

Variety and flexibility are key - whatever works for you on a particular day at a particular time is the point.
> 1. Steam is on an "open" platform and charges the same 30% for the marketplace access value as the rest of the industry, whether open or appliance/console, including Apple. So it is memetic but incorrect to argue that Apple being "walled garden" is causing Apple to take more from devs than other places devs can market their wares.

Steam has put a lot of effort into being the best place to buy games, and if a developer doesn't like it they're allowed to sell to customers on the same devices through a different store.

If there were no threat of competition, would Steam be as good as it is?

If the App Store did have competition, would it be better?
Cheap as in material cost, not cheap as in subpar tactics. No doubt the Marine dude in charge of that was very good at strategy, but by definition he had less resources for the exercise do anything he did would have to be cheaply thrown together.

And a successful zerg rush kinda has to be well coordinated, with pretty tight timing, otherwise it doesn't work. It wasn't meant negatively. Maybe I've just watched way too much OGN StarCraft.

That's precisely why I'm calling it a zerg rush. It's cheaper units, en masse, defeating a technology and cost-wise much more expensive foe.

You make a good point about the reset though, it would be a waste of resources to not reset at that point.
OK, I'm just saying that you should understand what you're getting into. These online memes are not reality.

> Not everyone has to live in Tokyo.

LOL, I'm not even remotely talking about Tokyo. I'm talking about 2nd- and 3rd-tier cities. If you find a $20k house in Tokyo, it's going to be unlivable, and so far outside the city that you won't believe you're in Tokyo.

Honestly, $20k is low even for a well-maintained place in a small town. Most likely, any house at this price point, anywhere, is in a flood zone or at serious risk of mudslide, filled with junk, and/or requiring seismic/electrical/plumbing improvements before you can move in.
Yeah, as someone who has been remote (including travel) for a lot of days over the past 20 years or so, I agree with maybe half of it. There are also a bunch of things I just don't do.

I don't have a standing desk; but I do have 2 or 3 work locations in my house. I obviously don't have a dedicated work area. Etc. As you say, figure out what works for you including the amount of structure that is useful.
Think about it as a small, seeminlgy useless change and giving your company 0.0006% more revenue.

I dont understand what "explicit" means here.

If it gets algorithmically deranked for user flags, but but not hidden, is that explicit?

I assume "explicit" means manual moderator intervention, but I don't really see anything that suggests that.
It only matters to shareholders in how much it costs. Considering it's going to be an incredibly minor software update, I'm guessing the cost is negligible.
I think it would be also really cool to see a "More depth" link, which gives more information on the subject. More stats, contributing factors, etc.
But does that apply only to touchscreens or is that written before touchscreens?
