I don't know if many has the same use case but... I'm heavily relying on this right now because my daughter started school. The school board, the school, and the teacher each use a different app to communicate important information to parents. I'm just trying to make one feed with all of them. Before AI it would have been hell to scrape, because you can imagine those apps are terrible.

Fun aside: The worst one of them is a public Facebook page. The school board is making it their official communication channel, which I find horrible. Facebook is making it so hard to scrape. And if you don't know, you can't even use Facebook's API for this anymore, unless you have a business verified account and go through a review just for this permission.

This seems risky. Many years ago, I could happily type in QWERTY and Dvorak (Colemak and Workman didn't exist yet), 60wpm on each in consecutive minutes. But I was having trouble with my joints (genetic condition). Moving my hand over to the arrow keys was a problem, so I modified Dvorak slightly to put the arrow keys in the middle (QWERTY's Y, G, H, B), put some letters and other keys on the number row, and put the numbers up on the function keys. It was close enough to Dvorak that it only took a few days to learn, but it had the unexpected consequence of breaking my Dvorak typing ability. The two were too similar.

Nowadays I use Workman [1] and put the arrow keys on the home row on a different layer (same locations as Vim).

We can agree on wavelength but not qualia, the philosophers say.
Good lord. The god nitpick.
Then maybe allow non binary choice. Like 0.7 green / 0.3 blue.
Becase when I see a mix of blue and green and there is only two buttons, I choose green. Or maybe I should treat the buttons as "> 0.5 green" and "> 0.5 blue".

Imho violet vs purple are difficult to distinguis (classify), maybe they can add a page for that too. These two colors are not spectral neighbors, so may be more interesting.

One more note - modern RGB displays do not produce real turquoise, just combinations of G and B. Are RGB(0,1,10) and RGB(0,10,100) on the same position of the scale between green and blue? On the final diagram, how is the horisontal axis computed?

And the next question is: why bother? We have well-established protocols for the ID card: a police scanner creates a nonce and sends it to the card, the card signs it with its private key, and provides a certificate signed by the government.

The police scanner then verifies the signature and checks that the certificate is correctly signed by the government's public key.

No need for ZKP.
I quit on the second one; it's a blue-green. Binary categorization is not sufficient.
Sorry do you mean in general, if I went to a paint store and they showed me a cyan patch? It would depend on that particular shade of cyan if it was more green or blue, and then on top of that my eyes bias towards green/blue. Or are you asking for the results of my own test here which show my particular bias of turquoise (as the author refers to or cyan as you refer to)? Took the test a couple types and varies but for me say I see turquoise as green (though close to 50%, so if took a few more times imagine may land blue sometimes and/or depend on if I'm viewing in a dark room or light room.
Holy tangent Batman! I never said that, and I think your nitpicking insinuates that a majority of people in jail don't belong there. I agree that not everyone in jail deserves to be there, even if they did the thing they were convicted of. But jail space is a scarce resource so I doubt many people in jail are there for such trifles as 1 gram of marijuana.

Furthermore, even if someone was in jail over some nothingburger, they would still have more reason to expect to have a hard time with a criminal record and all than someone without a criminal record. This is really my point: If you did nothing wrong yet have difficulties finding a job, it is hard to feel like you have agency in your own life.
I don't believe these are mutually exclusive, but I agree that that's a fine line to walk.
These sorts of tests also need to be done in controlled background lighting. Whether people are doing this in a dark room, in a sunny kitchen, or under green led lighting would be a greater factor than anything being tested.

My position is that both the UK since the end of the English Civil War (1646) and the US since the end of the American Civil War (1865) have been unusually free of internal political violence.

In contrast, the Chinese Civil War (ending in 1949) was bloodier than any conflict in the 20th Century except the 2 world wars, and Rwanda had a little internal conflict in 1994 that resulted in the death of 491,000–800,000 citizens (of the Tutsi ethnic group). Also since the 1980s, 350,000–1,000,000+ have been killed and 2,000,000–3,800,000 displaced by internal conflicts in Somalia. Also, Libya and Syria more recently.

>Modern English monarchy history easily traces back to 1066 . . . It's selective to limit political violence to last Civil War.

It is the recent centuries of the history of a country that is the most informative for predicting what will happen in the future.
Fake news according to whom? You? The government?

Brazilian government would get mercilessly fact checked on X pretty much every single time they posted anything. It was actually pretty funny. These people lie through their teeth about anything and everything. It comes naturally to them. I have videos of our current president admitting he makes up numbers on the spot when speaking in public. Yeah, these people just make stuff up, admit it and people still believe them. They say something stupid like "100 million brazilians are dying of hunger" and people eat it up.

Would you have us trust these clowns to tell fake from fact?
Yep. And services like voice for 60,000 only takes 1/4 rack.
>I think this is flawed. You quickly end up on a color that's clearly not "blue" or "green" and you're unlikely to keep hitting "this is green" several times in a row, conceding that ok, fine, maybe this is blue, whatever.

I agree with you, the whole thing is flawed when it could be better. When you ask the question "is my blue your blue?", you are evoking the old philosophical question, and it's a question about color perception, not words. This test did not test color perception, it tested "what word do you use?"

I think of blue as a pure color, and green as a wide range of colors all the way to yellow, to me another pure color. so if there's any green at all in it, I'm going to call it green. (maybe it's left over from kindergarten blending "primary colors". also, while I like green grass, I don't like green as a color, so any green I see is a likely to make me think, ew, green) But in terms of what I see, I can only assume I'm seeing the same thing as everybody else is because the test is not testing it. Just because I call something green doesn't mean I don't see all the blue in it.

>Edit: Possible improvements: changing the wording to "this is MORE green" and "this is MORE blue" and randomizing the order in which they are shown, somehow. I realize you're just doing some kind of binary search, narrowing the color range.

yes, the test should show you pure blue, then a turquoise mix, then pure green, and a ... etc. It should also retest you on things you already answered to measure where you are consistent.

Could it be that you get less wrist pain because Dvorak switches things up rather than it being better overall? With mouse use I find that a different grip can alleviate pain not because it's easier on the wrist, but because it's just different from the way I normally use it.
The deposition of James II and VII (same person, different kingdoms) in November 1688 was a singular event that followed the wider 1639 to 1653 Wars of the Three Kingdoms, which included The English Civil War (a series of civil wars and political machinations from 1642 to 1651)

A singular action with no bloodshed that followed a period in which bodies were stacked high, including over a hundred thousand non combat civilians.

A singular action with no bloodshed that sparked a long series of bloody revolts that began in March 1689, with major outbreaks in 1715 and 1719, and culminated in the Jacobite rising of 1745.

Yes - he did mention the day James was deposed, you ignored the rest of century that surrounded that day.
Didn’t notice that option. The website has neither an ‘about’ nor a ‘submit’ button until you have completed the activity.
I'd prefer blue/green/neither.

With the third colour, I just thought "no, that's teal", and my decision was (as you suggested) semi-arbitrary.
Their servers may be in space, but they'll still need to collect ad money from somewhere on Earth.
I'm employed and still feel little control over my career. Here I was thinking that my disengagement and cynicism was a result of being repeatedly screwed over. I guess that's an aspect of lacking control.
If you do this for green and yellow we can solve the "what colour are tennis balls" debacle once and for all.
> like "become conscious", which binarizes it.

Only if you pigeonhole me.

There are countless things where we recognize they are on a spectrum yet we use shortcuts in language to specify a sufficient threshold. If you don't believe me, may I introduce to you the color blue. Or any other color for that matter.

There is still the aspect that even when we consider consciousness to lie upon a continuum this does not mean that the function yields a non-zero result (or even approximately) prior to some threshold. In this case there is no ambiguity of "becomes conscious" as you can interpret this in the most weak form of consciousness. If you believe that the consciousness is only zero at the domain minimum then please state so, as I believe you are smart enough to not misinterpret my meaning and we can actually have a productive conversation. If you believe in that and also that it is a very slow growing function until a certain point, well... if you're going to be fucking pedantic then be fucking pedantic. In either case, you don't have to force this conversation into an argument and reconstruct it so that you're smart and I'm dumb. Who knows that relationship and such definitions are typically obtuse anyways.

So please, engage with at least a little good faith here.

> This isn't about ghosts.

If you want to purposefully misinterpret me, okay. We're done.

Don't talk about people "talking past one another" when you are egregiously misinterpreting. In any conversation you have to make sure that you are correctly decoding the other person's words. At least if you do indeed want to "get at something useful."
Of course there’s information there. Perhaps - to take a note from the article - you’re not ready for it at this point in your life.
The blue-green distinction is something that tends to come late in most or maybe all language families. Ancient Greek also used the same word for blue and green. As I recall, the first color words a language gains are black and white, followed by red. Blue-green is one of the last distinctions made.
Tell HN: Vimeo's free trial is predatory
TLDR: Vimeo will hold your video's continued availability hostage if you choose to downgrade before your free trial ends – even if the plan you're downgrading to has the same storage limits. They'll also charge you before your trial ends.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Needing more storage, I sign up for their Standard free trial (yearly billing). I know I will likely want the monthly plan, but the yearly plan is the only one that offers a trial. I figure I'll test drive the features for a few days, and I schedule in my calendar to switch from yearly to monthly billing before the trial ends. I receive an email with the following assurance:

> You will not be charged for your Standard plan until your free trial ends on Sep 3, 2024.

2. On Sep 2, 2024 – a day before the date they quoted me – my bank account gets charged the full $240.

3. I rush to the Vimeo dashboard to see what happened. No sign of any charge, and according to their dashboard I'm still on my trial. For good measure, I disable auto-renew.

4. I'll deal with this false charge later – first, it's time to downgrade to monthly billing... Only there's absolutely no way to do this. According to their help docs, you need to contact support to downgrade your plan. And you need to do it a full 24 hours before your renewal. I reach out to support.

5. Support tells me there's no way they can switch me to monthly. I'll have to resubscribe once my service lapses. Crucially, that means my pro features – specifically larger video storage – will be unavailable during that time. This is a huge problem, as my videos are in the shipped stage, and a link not working, even temporarily, would be very bad.

This is so obviously designed in a shady way. From the day-early charge, to the inability to downgrade without emailing support, to the threat of having videos temporarily unavailable if you choose to downgrade. I used to like Vimeo for their design and commitment to independent filmmakers, but this is intentionally convoluted and predatory.

Exactly this. It's very easy to accidentally write a query that takes 20 minutes to complete rather than 20 milliseconds. A few of those and boom, your server is dead.

There is no situation in which I'd let a customer write their own queries against the main shared production database, for performance reasons alone. It's a complete non-starter.

(Although like you say, if they want to pay for their own dedicated private read replica, and deal with breaking schema changes whenever they arise, let them go at it. That's sure not something I'd want as a customer though.)

I do think that the philosophical question could potentially be approachable in a modern context;

Show people a colour and map their brain activity - the level of similarity between two people's colour perceptions should be reflected by similarities in the activity.
My friend got a "Running an Amber" ticket when we were teens outside metro Detroit, MI. I had never heard it called that color before but that small memory is always on my mind when the light changes as I'm crossing.
It gets complicated if the goal is perfect accuracy. Cone sensitivity also varies on an individual basis even for color-normal people. Worse, the transfer function of the eyeball also varies with age as your lens yellows and internal fluid clouds a bit. Even holding those constant, brains do a lot of processing that maps what your eyes can physically capture into perceived colors, which are significantly influenced by upbringing.

Plus, screens and ambient lighting. It's a lot of variables.

That's the fun part, where do you draw the line in comparison to other people?
Many, many years ago (20+ eek) I worked on a 3D simulator for the New York Subway (even though we were based near London, UK). They were upgrading it from the legacy video based system to an interactive 3D sim.

There was something deeply fulfilling about having the legacy videos running side by side with the realtime 3D view and having them almost perfectly in sync.

We were running on inhouse designed and built, industrialised graphics cards, using 3DFX chips. It was a magical time to be involved with the cutting edge of 3D graphics as the industry tipped from Silicon Graphics and Evans & Sutherland "big iron" to consumer hardware.
