“and the whole LGBTQIA+ alphabet was a protected class”

Blatantly false.

Given the huge number of recent anti LGBTQ+ laws that have been created in the last few years, it is quite apparent that the exact opposite is true.

There are some parts which have been hard won, but one just has to look at how many people feel they have the right to not deal with LGBTQ+ people, even when it’s their public duty to do so (e.g. the Kim Davis debacle).

So even when protection is finally achieved there will still be large numbers of people who’ll ignore it - which is why we still have widespread racism here in the USA.

Just doesn't have the giant userbase, and since core adoc has basically "enough" functionality, it never got the hacker culture in its guts since you don't need to muck around in its guts for transclusion, variables, or conditionals. In short, Asciidoc is constantly fighting the headwinds of not coming from the JS ecosystem.

That damn Ruby heritage . .

Which is kinda funny, because Ruby is one of those languages that cranky hackers almost ubiquitously shrug and go, "yeah, it's mostly right". Whereas JS . . well, maybe if Ruby got built every damn which way we'd be making fun of it too.
I know I sound like a horrible evil person, but yes I truly would like to live in a world where you can say any of those examples. As another commenter said, 2/3 of those are already legal to say anyway, and I am so glad that I live in a place that has that freedom.

I don’t agree with or like any of the things you say but I would rather live in a world where you can say them instead of being arrested.
You're just re-describing the behaviour I already described as irritating; did you perchance reply to the wrong comment?

Scenario: I'm in a terminal doing something, and I have a second window I'm switching back and forth between that contains the man page for a command. In isolation, I haven't given you enough information to tell whether I should be pressing opt-tab or cmd-tilde to swap windows: maybe the man page is in a browser, or maybe it's in a second terminal.

Scenario: I'm switching back and forth between an editor and some reference document in another window; you can't tell which key I should press to swap without knowing if I'm looking at the document in another editor instance or a browser window.

Scenario: I'm switching back and forth between a terminal and some reference document from a cloud provider. You can't determine which key to press to swap without knowing if I'm ssh'd in a terminal or using a web-based cloud terminal.

Scenario: I'm switching back and forth between an image editor and a client's low-resolution logo they emailed me. You can't determine which key to press to swap without knowing if I'm looking at the reference image in another image editor window or a browser.

I run into this constantly.
Interesting. I do see there's a point where TGN-1A and APG cross, so perhaps a ship dragged a net across both in that vicinity? I'm well out of my depth here, but I would imagine that ships don't drag their anchors very far, but might drag a net for a long distance. So if they were around the point where they overlap, they would only have to drag it a couple miles to hit both.

Obligatory comment from a day ago :-)

I wouldn’t have made any until I had a viable game to demonstrate the system.

As a matter of fact, I wouldn’t have committed to hardware until I had the game sketched out. You have constrained yourself to certain choices before you know the implications of those choices.

Is color going to hinder it?

Is this really a board game where the tiles are eink devices? In which case, you’d want the connections on the edges instead of the back.

Do you need more space for text?

Do the cards need to remain in the board?

And so on. You’ve already effectively made these decisions without knowing how they’ll affect game development.

You should’ve come up with a game, then developed the hardware prototype around that game. Even if the initial hardware would have cost more with your current setup. Because, as you’ve noted, when you’re ready to go to manufacturing, you be able to take advantage of proper tooling and economies of scale.

I really think the lack of a game is the thing that’s going to be your major roadblock.
I have this one, it was great for debugging an annoying transient during power-on which some combinations of hardware with caps on the edge of tolerance had! In the field too!
It’s also the “they want to take away our cheeseburgers” mentality. SUV/Pickup are “the American way of life” (for a segment of the pop)
The common ancestor of neanderthals and homo sapiens had a larger than normal hole in the skull (the hypoglossal canal) which contains the nerve bundle going to the tongue. They're pretty sure that was the result of language use before 1M BC. There may have been several stages of later improvement after the initial development.
Yep, a lot of superheroes were created by radiation. Dropping atomic bombs actually strengthens the enemy. That’s the real reason why they stopped doing it.

> Imagine talking with someone that had a proclivity for making up words.

All software is written by making up new words. The bigger the software, the more words.

> you can shoot yourself in the foot in any language, but Lisp is unusually good for it

I've never shot myself in the foot writing Lisp, and have not heard any anecdotes about it. (Well, maybe the one about Cycorp's Cyc decades old code base being large and inscrutable.)

You're making shit up.
Actually we moderate less, not more, when YC or a YC startup is the story. This is the #1 rule of HN moderation and has been since pg first explained it to me on the morning he started showing me how to moderate HN. If anyone wants to read about this, there are ten years' worth of past explanations here: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&qu....

It looks like a mod downweighted this story but also saved it, along with your comment, for me to review. Since the rule is the rule, I'm reducing the downweight now. (Edit: I've since checked with the mod and indeed their intention was to follow the same rule - see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40720026.)

This looks like a flimsy story from a couple of months ago about something from many years ago. It's hard to tell if there's any there-there but, given how this sort of story usually works, the odds seem low*. It's obviously getting attention not because of intellectual curiosity (the right reason on HN) but because of celebrity outrage (a popular human pastime but not the right reason on HN). It's also repetitive of many other outrage threads we've had in recent months—an additional reason to downweight it (beyond the outrage aspect). We never let articles like this stay on HN's frontpage normally—if we did, HN would consist of little else.

Still, I'm happy to reduce the downweight on this because that rule is key to the trust we have with the bulk of the community. I think most HN readers know that we moderate shallow outrage stories off the front page, and why; and I think most can appreciate that we bend that rule the other way for the sake of the above principle, even if they don't like it.

It doesn't stop people from making up false claims (edit: I mean about HN moderation, like the parent comment), but it does let us answer them in good conscience, and the rest is just standard internet dynamics (sinister speculation, etc.)

* Note the photo that describes Geoff as YC's "new president". That hasn't been the case for 5 years, and he stopped being president 18 months ago.
That doesn't refute what the GP is saying. "Tide is turning" is about a rate of change; that site only presents a snapshot of the current state of things.

Not saying you're wrong, as I have no evidence either way, but a more useful measure to see what's happening would be a plot of the numbers of React and Vue sites over time.
Wow, I never considered a power attack from software of an untrusted OS. Ring -1 and SGX and the like lead to some very harsh security environments for modern processors. IMO if you want cryptographic security, you should probably use an external component that you control, but that isn't always possible and is never the cheaper option.
Eating all this popcorn while I read about people who are super deeply invested in AI or crypto.
You missed the point. React is not MVC, and that's by design.

Certainly redux isn't a controller.
I tried that a while back. It's not a great option just for builds. It only supports dedicated instances, with a minimum lifetime of 24 hours. That means it'll cost you a minimum of about $15 to use one. In addition, you can't stop and start them. If you want to stop paying $15 - $37 per day for it, you have to delete the instance.
Yeah but you also have to factor in that public transport is much more widely accessible and used.
Ah that's an important detail about public v private. Makes it a nice result but nearly as impressive as initially stated.

I feel like this article over-complicates things by using a strange definition of “essential complexity”: That if a user says that something is necessary, than that is essential complexity.
Personally I never assume that the user has distilled a problem down to its essence. Regardless, my process looks a lot like what the author recommends: Question assumptions, propose alternatives, eliminate work, etc.

Okay, but when people are complaining about fines in this cases and similar cases, that is what they're talking about.

You can take a fine detail and make an argument out of it, but it's not a point anyone else cares about.
It's fair game to compare if you include the conversion efficiency of the organisms that made the fossil fuels :P

We care about the efficiency of converting resources we have a limited amount of, sunlight is unlimited on humanity's scale, so is wind, but how much solar or wind power we can extract from them and transmit has constraints and that is the step where we should start caring about efficiency
I have yet to find a use case where quality can be traded off.

Would love to hear what you had in mind.
I was called to perform a cyber security deployment in the US Army for a year from summer 2009-2010. I traveled across Afghanistan visiting various major US Army bases providing security assessments for the US Army's 1st IO Command. Active duty personnel were performing these missions in all areas that did not require family separation and used reservists for places like Iraq and Afghanistan.

The prior year I was involuntarily reassigned from a web design position to a front-end developer position at Travelocity. That year at Travelocity I was taking my first baby steps into programming, as required to retain employment, but did not really understand what I was doing. I learned use of basic functions and syntax. I learned much more trying to write original programs on my own in my down time in Afghanistan.

I suppose an excellent comparison to software architecture is public speaking or writing for publication. You know talent when you see it and it looks so incredibly simple when performed. The real challenge is attempting to communicate that simplicity in a meaningful way because not everybody is willing to consume the challenging material that allows for such talent. I don't claim to be talented, but I know what I have performed relative to other people. There are some people I can explain this to with immediate consumption. There are some people who are capable of listening to it, but find the effort required untenable. Then there are people who are not capable of consuming the material in any form.
They also relied on schools when I was going through school, even before the free license for students offers. My schools would get cheap or free use of office suite, windows, and adobe creative suite, we'd all learn to do our class work on them (or have multimedia elective essentially being 'learn adobe creative suite' class), pirate them for home use, and have it even more entrenched for doing actual work with. Considering when I started at school, computers for student use for my whole school could be counted on one hand and they only had word perfect or something on them, they adapted to that particular changing landscape amazingly.
Looks like two definitions of up are being discussed..

It's also possible that you are an AGI and simply cannot pass ARC.
I don't think there's a way define suffering without invoking contextualized pain and an entity that suffers (a self). A self is a complex phenomenon that has a bunch of additional requirements not least of which is the capacity for bridging multiple moments of sensory input that happen in the now.

One can remember that one suffered because one can experience pain in the now and bridge that into a context where the self exists. Selfing is the trick of consciousness, it's not necessarily the natural state of all creatures with sensory equipment or memory - it's an additional trick that only a handful of creatures have.
Ya. It sounds good. But then the question is why doesn’t every other country destroy US in entrepreneurship? Why does US still have so many small businesses?

I never claimed that my strategy beats the sp500. It has underperformed, especially the way the market has been. The market has returned 25% over the last year. The expected performance of the strategy is somewhere between 10% and 30%, but it is not clear what exactly.

I don't think it's necessarily fair to call others "dumb money". They can hold for longer and still profit with the market.

The market is not a zero sum game because the market capitalization is several multiples of the total invested funds. The market is a money printer in its own way.

> Precious metals as a currency do not work which why they are no longer used for that purpose. If they did work better you would see successful counties continue to use them not abandon them.

You're 100% wrong here, also 100% brainwashed. Precious metals as a currency do not work because the government doesn't have the freedom to mint an unlimited supply of hard assets. The government holds a gun to people's heads, locking them up if they don't use the highly inflationary national currencies. Countries are run by politicians, bureaucrats, and armed police mafia who care about their paycheck and pensions which wouldn't be so big if not for free moneyprinting at the expense of the citizenry. The people do not have freedom of their choice of money.
Thanks! This is an HP internal battery. I think I found a variable voltage charger that will work (battery says it's 11.4v). Unfortunately, it looks like charging circuitry is on the motherboard, and the CPU is integrated with it. So that would be very expensive to replace.
Either ChatGPT has gotten better or I gave it a better prompt this time. It suggested this padding-bottom hack that sorta works but requires hardcoding aspect ratios, which I didn't want, but at least it demonstrates the layout we wanted with a Windows XP Bliss background image example:

height: 0;
padding-bottom: 80.44%; /* h/w aspect ratio */
