Hi Peter, thank you for this!

I understand that when a company terminates an H1-B worker, the company must offer to pay for the return flight. But what happens if the termination occurred while the employee was overseas and the employee wasn't able to return to the US. Could the employee seek a reimbursement from the company for the costs related to terminating apartment lease early, relocating their residence or storage costs?

It could be both - notes to himself on what he wants to cause here, even if the performer will see something else (e.g. notes like “arrange the chord order this way when you select it” - editor’s notes to himself).
Yes. UAW, the US auto mfg union, has come out publicly in wanting to slow down the EV transition and soften emissions regulations. They care about their jobs first, climate change and efficiency somewhere else down the line.

https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/uaw-wa...

'The United Auto Workers union on Friday called on the Biden administration to soften its proposed vehicle emissions cuts that would require 67% of new vehicles to be electric by 2032.

The UAW, which represents workers at General Motors, Ford Motor, and Chrysler parent Stellantis, said the Environmental Protection Agency's proposed standards should be revised to "better reflect the feasibility of compliance so that the projected adoption of (zero emission vehicles) is set to feasible levels, increases stringency more gradually, and occurs over a greater period of time."'

Well, since it's a web client, it's pretty easy to just try it out, but the benefit of Phanpy is not that it's a web client. It's just it has a lot of nice little UI touches that make it very pleasant to use. There's an overview at [1], but I'm not sure if that does it justice - you kind of have to experience it. The most noticeable is that all boosts are grouped in a horizontal carousel, whereas you vertically scroll through other posts, but I can't quite explain why that's no nice.

That's also absurd that modern news sites think they are so trustworthy that they don't even bother to cite or link to the studies or subjects they're talking about. Sometimes it's a bit insane when wikipedia only requires a link to a news site to consider something verified.

> human uniqueness is being eroded

Why does this bother so many people? The more we learn about life on our own tiny planet, and when you consider the size of the universe... certainly we're not very unique at all. So what? I don't think it should change anything.

Congrats on the launch! I would say though I think you should up your price to at least $9.99. A $3 game makes me think it's low quality, which it's not. So you ought to price your game appropriately.
union leadership, esp the IBEW have a history of not actually caring about safety but of making sure they get their due, AFL-CIO affiliated unions were part of keeping communism out of america at any cost and that was it.

The CIA helped them rise to power and retain it while also taking away from the workers.
Same. Nice work!!!
With bigint primary keys the process starts either taking the old site offline, and ends with bringing the new site online.

In-between is a non-trivial renumbering step, which takes measurable time that invalidates all existing backups.

By contrast uuid based databases do not need this step, and all existing data (some steady distributed, some in backups etc) remain valid.
Perhaps you are right, but lets face it, 2040 isn't that long-term.
Comment you originally responded to suggested:

> If you're worried about the future timestamp being at a specific local time (say 10 AM on a future date), it's actually better to store a naive time and a location than the IANA timezone name.

Europe/Oslo would be the IANA name for mainland Norway (Svalbard and Jan Mayen are in different IANA regions).

If you're meeting somewhere at a specific time, you might as well specify that place really precisely (Maybe: Nidaros Cathedral, Trondheim, Norway) and then use that place to infer the proper UTC offset when the date approaches.

There's no perfect solution as landmarks, names, &c. can all change.
It’s a little rough around the edges for godot 4. It’s still only trained on godot 3 docs and examples as far as I can tell.
Perhaps, but society has decided that the more something is addictive, the more the government should interfere to protect people from themselves. See: Gambling, cigarettes. We have causative proof that this is both addicting and harmful (and often affects kids disproportionally) which may mean it merits more controls.
To be fair - that's what news sites do - they summarize information happening elsewhere.

Its hard to claim google is in the wrong for doing to news sites what news sites have been doing to other people since forever.
the problem is, they also want the headline to entice people to buy the paper. Contradictory desires.
Google: We can only exist on the free labor of others at every turn.
Another garbage article that builds/propagates narratives, has zero nuance (dumbs everything down to the nomenklatura, and doesn't even mention the lineage interruption or FSB vs military vs civil institutions power struggle of 90's), and won't lead to any HN-worthy discussion beyond feeding the confirmation bias of local folks. Modern democracy is not a thing that either exists or doesn't. It's a loose bunch of basic practices and properties most meet to the certain extent: rule of law, checks and balances, representation, transparency, pluralism, market-based economy, and so on. Most of those existed in the post-Soviet Russia for a while to a certain extent. We can argue endlessly about that extent, but they undoubtedly took a while to dismantle, otherwise the war and runaway fascism could have happened in 1993 or in late 90's. In reality, it only happened after the 2020 constitution coup.

> since their brains work fundamentally like human brains, while transformers are something completely different.

Are they? You realize that's entirely speculative right? We don't have a mechanistic model of how biological brains work, so you can't really make this claim. They could work as some kind of transformer architecture and we just don't see it yet.

Christianity is Christ's teachings, and any other definition is a strawman. What you're talking about is man's sinful nature, and that is separate.
There are a few categories of usage for enclaves (well, more broadly, Trusted Execution Environments):

1) Clouds (you mostly trust the provider, but maybe not fully. And you want to make sure they don’t have anything up their sleeves. Consider the FBI vs Apple encryption dispute)

2) Intra-corporation stuff as a mitigation against hacked users, malicious insiders, and malware (think crypto oracles for terminating SSL, requiring bootchain attestation before giving corporate credentials)

3) The more icky category: Places where you distrust your own customer (DRM, and probably eventually, game anticheat)

The userspace code being more privileged than kernel code has never really been true. Maybe arguably true for SGX, but even then, all you get is the ability to prove you were initialized in the “right” way. All the other TEEs have a kernel mode component (they are typically ways of running attestable VMs).
Surprisingly large amounts were offloaded to clients especially early on - iirc early pvp was a madhouse because “accurate correct line of sight” and other things you should never trust the client on were only done server side in instances.

> It's hard to game, simple to apply and trivial to verify (once you issue SSN you check with IRS once a year if they are really paid what the company said it will pay). And if companies try some fraud they are now in the business of tax fraud.

This is one of the areas where it may be easier to game - at least until the people committing the fraud have gained a bit, shut down the business, and moved on (at least for the smaller instances - larger consultancies would have more difficulty but they game in other ways).

Government agencies are notoriously siloed and often have laws preventing all but the most limited data exchange between agencies.

Consider https://krebsonsecurity.com/2017/03/student-aid-tool-held-ke...

The IRS Data Retrieval Tool isn't "send data from IRS to DoEd" but rather "send data to the individual who then sends it to DoEd".

The exchange of data between agencies is specified in Information Exchange Agreement

https://www.cms.gov/about-cms/information-systems/privacy/da...

https://www.ssa.gov/dataexchange/documents/IEA(F)%20State%20...

https://home.treasury.gov/policy-issues/tax-policy/tax-infor...

https://www.hhs.gov/guidance/sites/default/files/hhs-guidanc...

The referenced privacy act: https://home.treasury.gov/footer/privacy-act

This leads to it being easier for each department to establish its own set of data (so it doesn't need to go through the difficulty of having an IEA with all of that additional bureaucracy and since there's more than enough work for for underfunded agencies working with data that you don't have gets deprioritized) ... and such fraud is likely easier to do or takes many years to raise up enough discrepancies to merit further investigation by qualified investigators.
That’s the biggest difference - I played classic and there were entire guilds (including mine) who never even bothered thinking of trying to do an actual raid. We had a few raiders but they were independently contracting with bigger guilds as subs.

And we were totally fine with it.

My understanding is that fluoridation of municipal water supplies serves a different purpose than fluoride in toothpaste. The fluoride in the water supply is low concentration and is intended to cause teeth to develop with stronger cavity resistance, toothpaste is a much more superficial and immediate measure.
Interesting interview on this subject: https://www.rferl.org/a/puti-russia-zorin-modern-tsar-mythol...

IME though this argument is used to rationalize the behavior of Russian leaders (I’ll call it “tyranny” and “oppression” as a Westerner, acknowledging that we have some of our own trash to clean up).
These guys are correct: The Tiktok bill is essentially section 310 of the Communications Act of 1934 but for apps. It’s actually quite sensible.
I think a lot of people are willing to pay for journalism, but it has to be journalism above and beyond the basic info that you can get for free online. The basic news is commoditized and freely available online, and that's what a lot of traditional newspapers are competing with. However, paid industry journalism like The Information is something people are willing to pay for - or get their companies to pay for at least.

Also, I think traditional newspapers should position themselves so they're not competing with the lowest common denominator of basic info, however due to cutbacks, most newspapers are in essence not doing very much in depth journalism anymore, which means they are unfortunately positioning themselves as competing with any other source of news.

You need to sort the domain/TLD confusion. Your brand name ends with "io" (.io being popular in programming websites) and highlighted in yellow in your logo. Your website is .site and your email is .app. I also think just reading the name that it's a classroom CMS, and not programming related.

I think that is a part of it, but its not just that.

News provied two services in the old days: access and filtering.

Back in the day you couldn't easily get things straight from the horses mouth, now you can just go to their website.

If you did have direct access in the old days, it was all way too much. There was no way to filter to 10-minutes worth of top goings on. Now a days you can just look at what is upvoted and stop once you have read enough.

Or even $7.99, that or $8.99 is sort of a nice line between signaling "very cheap game" and "potentially short but enjoyable experience for the evening worth the gamble to find out if so".

I can't speak to it in general, that's just my 2c on the matter/issue without really knowing too terribly much about the game (or game development in generally, really, I'm just a consumer here! XD). <3 :'))))
Just bought it. Looks like a nice little game. Wishing you many more successful releases.

I am curious what roadblocks you ran into if you'd like to share more about your Godot experience.
I made a mini Arduino-powered smart home that was used for demos at tradeshows [1]. It had to be shipped first to San Fran, then it went to Vegas for CES and a few more places.

I had the same thought at first, "I should really solder these wires."

But then I realized that wires coming loose was inevitable given the hell this project was going to endure being handled by airlines, rolled across different terrain, and poked and proded by trade show attendees.

So I opted to use color coded jumper cables and include extra. In the manual, I included a simple wiring diagram to show how to hook everything up. No solder needed.

In the hands of a consumer, yes, everything should be soldered because there's a higher force needed to break the connection, but repair is also harder. Consumers typically do not repair, so the trade off leans toward solder. I suspect this is the perspective that inspires this comment.

In the hands of a hacker looking for durability, it's actually better for things to be replaceable. Because the hacker can repair, the advantage gained by soldering isn't worth the the friction added repair.

Hi Peter - a followup question if I may. Do you think that this kind of "solo entrepreneur" business model would be a good fit for the E2 visa? In particular, where the individual does not envision employing any other people, nor getting large amounts of VC funding (think more like bootstrapped growth). Or does the E2 visa require more 'scale'?
At some point someone is actually doing journalism though (in the best case at least.) News outlets that summarize things from e.g. Reuters or AP tend to have agreements which pay money for the information. You could reasonably argue that google should be doing the same, right?
Not at all. These things are cultural and on a person by person basis as well. I’m definitely on the low profile side, to a fault.
So are you essentially constantly swapping cards that you use once you cap out their bonus sign up amount, so to speak?

If so, doesn't that cause the issue where your points are all scattered across various different credit companies?

> Around the same time, scans of Beethoven manuscripts began to appear on a wiki site for musicians called the International Music Score Library Project.

IMSLP is the third wonder of the crowdsourced world, after Wikipedia and OpenStreetMap. I write as an OSM OG, someone who in theory understands crowdsourcing dynamics more than most, and still... IMSLP never ceases to amaze me.

One example. Look at the contributions of Pierre Gouin: https://imslp.org/wiki/Category:Gouin,_Pierre . He's 77 years old and from Montreal. He has edited thousands of scores of keyboard music, with the highest standards of scholarship, and posted them up for people to download. I play the church organ and I lose count of the number of times I have benefited from his endeavours.

Multiply that by the number of IMSLP's dedicated contributors. Multiply that by the number of musicians who have downloaded their scores. It is an absolute wonder and it deserves more recognition.
I will attempt to bridge this gap by noting that "not that common" is both true and underselling it, like, heard this 5 times in 35 years.
BRICS and OPEC are two very different things. Except one country in BRICS, the remaining ones are oil importers. They would gladly get rid of that dependency for national security reasons alone.
Once your data is inside the hospital it can still be widely shared, though subject to regulation. I was part of two research efforts called SHARPS and THaW that studied trust, privacy, and security in medical systems:

https://sharps.org/
https://thaw.org/

One research group analyzed how patient data is shared inside medical systems and found that in some cases as many 300 different entities had access to your data. The billing companies, consultants, out of network clinicians, staff, testing companies, supply companies, IT management companies, outside expert consultations, insurance companies, medical device companies, data analysis companies, and many more. In some cases it was unclear if the data was further shared with subcontractors and other third parties.
That price point seems high.

For example, Netflix is $84/year. Netflix content seems a lot more valuable then simply twice what WaPo provides.
Except I don't see many falsehoods there, and CEO's "defense" actually confirms things that blogger said.

For example, the blogger was complaining that Kagi uses too much of AI tools. CEO responded with blog post which announced one AI tool being deployed, confirmed that they are going to keep working on AI, and announced upcoming features.

When blogger complained "Kagi stretches itself way too thin", CEO said "we have to do it"

Re taxes, CEO confirmed that they were not paying taxes, etc..

The best part was how blogger said: "LOL CEO does not understand PII, andd says emails are not PII because one can enter throwaway email" and CEO replied by restating the same thing.
I deleted it cause I realized this thing has a server (probably). Was mixing it up with other people's projects that didn't have one.
