Hey my carioca friend! We currently have only 20 words (and the list is random), the progress bar is just to give the sense of progress hahah, also, I'm not saving any state, so if you do 3 words and refresh the page, it will reset everything.

About the reference below the text, It's like another div with the text below the textarea, that's why it breaks sometimes. I have to think of something better.

Thank you so much for the feedback!
Can someone explain to me why the reddit leaders want the new interface? Is it because the old one can't track users as well or what? Why don't they just add trackers to the old interface? Or what's the reason?
Or you could just toss people in jail. This case is clearly wire fraud if the company knowing provided fraudulent hiring rates to get people to pay money for a service.

The judge is supposed to consider severity. Obviously it went too far in this case.

Regarding remorse/contrition though - that is absolutely a factor of in potential risk to
the community.

Example - Someone gets arrested for DUI. Who is higher risk? Someone who insists they didn’t do it and fuck anyone who thinks they did and they’ll do what they want, or someone who says ‘that was terrible, and I didn’t do exactly what the prosecution says, but I’m not going to be driving anytime soon until this all gets worked out’?

Because plenty of people in the first category end up driving drunk while pending trial and kill more people.

It's not particularly important, but perhaps worth noting, that the disablement of the 2 burned fingers was not complete. Their motion and utility was severely curtailed due to the burn damage, but he still utilised them where he could. One of the final pictures in the linked article shows an example of how he could fret certain shapes with all 4 fingers if necessary, though this was certainly a minor part of his technique given the limitations.

I Became the Worst Redditor [video]
This is a solid effort, but the root cause is unregulated data brokers and their ability to aggregate, store, and sell this data. It’s not that the government should require a warrant; these companies should not exist.

Edit: to the question “How would you define a data broker for these purposes?” that was deleted, I would defer to the CFPB’s criteria:

I’m sad that radio pagers are going away. They’re a much more reliable way of getting an emergency call out than a multifunction mobile phone. Their battery life is much longer and you won’t put it on do not disturb or silent mode.

Being on a separate radio network also means that in a real emergency when mobile signal is degraded, the pagers still work.

The other thing that’s convenient is that you can hand them off physically, so people know who is responsible for them at any time.

Google’s AI results show “According to a Reddit user…” now, including for things like health / wellness searches. It’s horrifying. Reddit is a cesspool of the commons. It’s an information garbage dump where uninformed people are upvoted by uninformed people. It’s the Yahoo Answers of our day.

each site you visit either works... or you leave it. if you must use it and it's a blank page, press ctrl+e, or open the ad blocker UI (works even on Firefox Android) and uncheck the blocked js icon. again, done. two clicks or one keyboard shortcut.

A law firm I worked for in the mid-90s started a helpdesk rotation with five or six of us taking shift with a single beeper. The only real complain was from the three women on the team, who had no belts or pockets to hang the device from (skirts and dresses were mandatory for female employees at the time, and women's clothes rarely have pockets or belts).

Does the manual actually state this? Seems like it just cautions you not to do that, which is likely due to water spotting that occurs when you wash a car in direct sunlight. Not really harmful, just leads to quick water spots and a shitty wash. Anyone would recommend not washing any car in direct sunlight, especially if it’s hot outside.

> If Susan goes shopping does her go with her?

Is there a typo in that question? Because this does not parse as a sentence in any way for me, and if that's part of the point, I don't understand how. How would a toddler answer this question (except for looking confused like an adult, or maybe making up some nonsense to go with it)?

Happy to be told how I missed the obvious!

Regular aircraft carriers where extremely flammable and filled with explosives.

Originally they had wooden decks, boatloads of fuel, and no meaningful armor. Nowadays their made with ~70,000 tons of steel, and fire is still a major concern.

Roland used this fact to produce surprisingly realistic sounds at low cost. When memory was too expensive to sample the whole note, you could get excellent results from sampling just the transient and using traditional subtractive synthesis for the rest:

No. Like regular aircraft carriers, you keep them far away from the battlefield. Their air wing flies in and ideally deploys weapons at range. (This works for the same reason staging rockets extends range.)

and the <slot> with name="thing" will get replaced by the <div> with slot="thing"? This is really cool

Even tough LCDs sample and hold (so, no refresh flicker like a CRT) many employ a PWM to modulate the backlight brightness which will cause it to flicker in excess of your refresh rate, with the pattern varying according to the set brightness.

Some PWM flicker might reach a frequency that is low enough to bother you, I've read about people who bought a brand new LCD TV and had to return it due to headaches, supposedly attributed to the rate of flicking by the PWM.

Some monitors are sometimes even reviewed as not employing a PWM thus being easier on the eyes.
The damning thing here is that they are trying to introduce sugar overconsumption in markets not already exposed to it. They will sell two baby food products that are labelled exactly the same, with the only difference being higher sugar content in the version sold in the 3rd world. What the science tells us is that sugar addiction at young age means sugar addiction in adulthood, which is something Nestle has plenty of products to cater towards. They are aware of rich educated markets having some degree of education to avoid giving their children sugary products (and that these markets already have plenty of adult sugar addiction), and are relying on every other market to have no option but Nestle.

Usually the local news/politics/crime data slants a certain way you could probably guess. E.g. I used to argue with redditors about how they assume the local metro is nothing but homeless people and you will get mugged, citing my years and years of use with no issue and seeing plenty of seemingly sober and straight arrow people on my commute, but no. It goes against the prevailing narrative that everything is irredeemable and shitty. I lost my energy to engage with these people before long, I wish I lost it even sooner.
Show HN: Candidly, a (hopefully) better way to learn about politicians
Hey HN! I've been wondering for a while how we might be able to make the process of evaluating the politicians we vote for more transparent. In the most recent SF election- for example- I only really had a few promotional websites and some loose policy statements to go off of.

This seems quite inefficient, especially considering how much signal- social media posts, policy decisions, interviews- exists on the internet for each politician.

So, I put together Candidly (https://votecandidly.com/) as an experiment (for now, it only has information on the candidates for SF's upcoming state senate election.)

*The Core Idea*: Candidly indexes each politician's most recent tweets, interviews, and policy decisions- and lets you interface in a conversational manner with each politician's stated and demonstrated opinions.

Let me know what you think!
This is not the best way to understand where modern embeddings are coming from.
Colleges do tend to be a bit more careful, but they often publish hiring numbers based on graduates rather than students, when advertising. This is deceptive, because they never mention their completion rates (which are often around 50%), and significantly impacts the calculus.
Worst of all, we probably have now immortalized this behavior in-the-before-AI-times archive, so that if you want to have an AI moderator, it will probably try to mimic the broken behavior.
the best strategy is still to start out with something that's press-positive (Apache2) and switch to BSL/SSPL after funding is secured. bad press will happen, but at least later, after the good press phase.
Yeah, it can confuse our brains a little bit hahah. thanks!
> If they do lawyer up, they end up being forced into arbitration due to an arbitration clause in their student agreements

You’re literally describing why arbitration works. Someone low income can just file for arbitration with minimal work by a lawyer. Contrast that with the tens of thousands they’d need to pay a litigator.
(I'd argue that wasn't a "store".)
I'll add an option with sounds, thanks!
Yeah, as a European retro game enthusiast I tend to avoid the PAL versions of anything older than the sixth gen of consoles like the plague.

By the PS2/GameCube/Xbox era most games were fine and PAL60 was becoming a thing anyway, but older than that and there’s a good chance the game just runs 17% slower due to the 50/60Hz difference, or has some weird letterboxing due to not accounting for 576 vs 480 lines.
Yeah, and 90% of the commenters in this discussion clearly haven't looked at TV or computer monitor made in the last few years; they're at least 5 years behind the market.

There are Samsung TVs that have around ~6ms input delay, and many, many gaming monitors have 1-2ms input delay.

If you spend $400 you can get a 1440p monitor with 1ms input delay, 2-3ms grey-to-grey timing, that will do 240hz.

All with more contrast, color gamut, and resolution.
I don't understand you position. Are you saying the question of if dogs are stupid is irrelevant, off limits, and if you know the answer it is unethical to say it?

Suppose dogs (your choice) are stupider. How should someone behave?
I think this is a complicated issue. While I think it’s important to maintain focus on the actual point of software (delivering something useful to people), it’s important to not completely ignore the shoulders of the giants who came before us, to avoid learning old lessons the hardest, and avoid solving already solved problems.

I think Tesla is guilty of this when it comes to their manufacturing. Elon wants to do everything from first principles to remove waste, meanwhile the “old guys” designed and rolled out competitive products to mass production, while Tesla struggled for years. Experience matters, but doesn’t mean anything if the playbook keeps getting thrown out.
> A vocal timbre can also reveal economic and cultural background. Some singers...were encouraged to either accentuate their timbre...or to abandon what occurred naturally for them

Vocal timbre is a big identifier of different rap subgenres and artists, seems like. Certainly seems like much of the vocal delivery on a track explores fluctuation of the timbre, even when the pitch is constant or has little dynamics.

It's interesting to think how the timbral effects of a regional accent would interact with the beat construction/development. Is the trap hi-hat a result of the Southern drawl?

I remember when mobile phones started to become big, I still had a pager / beeper at the time and realised that you could SMS directly to the beeper number for them to appear - that was a pretty cool few months until everything went the way of mobile and 2 way texting!
A designer once advised me to align an icon with the "typographical center of gravity" - as in, of the "ink". This would make the location of an icon next to text depend on the text itself, not just the font. Obviously, we compromised in practice :)
That true, but this ends up being a game of whack-a-mole, and even a few thousand dollars is too much for a lot of victims. Recently there was an attempt to mount a class action lawsuit, which would have settled things for everyone in one fell swoop, and it was rejected due to the arbitration clause.
How to tell a bad person from a person who did a bad thing (2017)
> boring similar photos I've probably already saw like 100 times from a slightly different angle

I’ve started a blog about my summer house in the Sierra Nevada foothills as a way to stay connected with friends and family. Suddenly, I have around 100 subscribers… from Russia, as the blog is in Russian. Although it may not feature anything particularly extraordinary, such as the sky, plants, and animals, these things remain captivating to me. The ever-changing scenery, including the sky, apricot and lilac trees, raccoons, cats, and deer, seems not boring to my readers too. It’s incredible to think that a hundred people in Russia are concerned alongside me when a stray cat returns after my absence in California… We also laugh together on California politics but not very often.

The blog is hosted on Telegram, not Reddit though - for obvious reasons.
now that's a challenge

I'll take a look into that hahah
> Comparing ... might be more fair,

I don't make purchasing decisions based on what's 'fair', I look at what capabilities I have, what I lack, and what my budget is.

> Why does that seem the same to you?

Exchange rate. But you make a valid point that I should also factor in inflation.

> We’re in a ray tracing thread and for ray tracing, there’s no contest, the 4060ti wins there by a long way.

It wins in the sense that it can do ray tracing while the 1080Ti cannot, but based on my understanding, the xx60-tier cards aren't viable for raytracing at 60fps without DLSS anyway, and I'm still not convinced I want to consider DLSS performance to be the number I care about in my purchasing decisions.

> UserBench says today the 4060ti is 17% faster for 20% lower price today,

The most important question I look at is "what games can I run at what resolution" and I don't think there's a single game I can get acceptable performance at 4K on a 4060Ti or even a 4070, that I can't get acceptable 4K performance on a 1080Ti. There are probably a couple that I could run at 1080p that I have to run at 720p currently. I'm not using a variable/high refresh rate monitor and i'm not playing competitive shooters.
I'm out of the web development game, but in my day it was still quite possible to vertically center text and icons consistently. You just had to notice it was busted in the first place, and then go in and fix it. It's not a technological problem, or at least not a non-trivial one.

The problem is that, if it's off by a couple pixels, the front-end engineer may not notice it, and the designer may not even look at it. Or, if they do notice it, they think "do I want to file a bug report right now, or do I want to work on my own ticket right now?" Having worked in both roles, this is my experience anyway.

I agree that there's no consistent way to center things that always works, no matter what, without anybody thinking about it or paying really careful attention. I think we prioritize solutions with those performance characteristics, which is a separate problem of even greater magnitude.
“Protesters in Sunnyvale sat in Kurian’s office for more than nine hours until their arrests, writing demands on Kurian’s whiteboard…”

Regardless of your views, what an ineffective way to exert influence. Mindblowing that Google’s standards have fallen so low that this is the best idea this lot could come up with.
Point being? Your modern LCD still uses buffers and sample and hold. They will always have inherent input latency compared to CRT regardless how fast they can refresh.
I've always felt the opposite.

When I was a kid, if I was playing NES/SNES games on my TV with no lights on, after an hour or so, my eyes were burning.

This is so true.

Because in practice, this bill does nothing.

Senior administration officials said the measure would blind U.S. intelligence outfits from getting information easily purchased by foreign intelligence operations

Right. And I'm supposed to believe that our intel people won't just use the data banks of British Intel or DGSE is that it?

Heck, our law enforcement people could use Homeland Security databases after the information is disseminated.

Without banning the practice of data aggregation in and of itself, you stop nothing.

ETA: Now I think about it, I guess it does stop a local sheriff from having his/her own database. But it does nothing to stop them from searching DHS databases and getting the same information. And of course, as far as federal intelligence and law enforcement, well, they would be custodians of the databases so... yeah.
kamikaze.
