It is commonly understood that 'men' in that context and in the context of the time is a reference to 'mankind' or 'the race of men' which means the human race, not males specifically.

From what I have been able to learn from several community mental health friends, there are a lot of causes of homelessness. There are certainly nontrivial numbers of people struggling with mental illness, drug and alcohol abuse, or combinations of both in public on our streets. This tends to be very visible and off putting. Housing is only one of many challenges these people are facing, but there are also lots of services beyond housing aimed at this population. There are also plenty of people who are dealing with setbacks and just need to get back on their feet and rebuild. This population is much less visible most of the time, because they are much less likely to be inconveniencing people in public spaces. Sometimes they have more of a social network to tap and can stay off of the streets. For this group, cost of housing and availability of work are the primary issues. I don’t have a good sense of the size of this population relative to other populations though.
Show HN: Windows NFS Manager – A GUI for mounting and managing NFS drives
I built this because I was tired of using the command line to mount NFS drives on Windows.

Key features:

- Simple GUI for mounting/unmounting NFS drives

- Advanced mount settings (UID/GID mapping, transfer sizes, timeouts)

- Real-time drive status and storage monitoring

- Detailed drive properties view

- Built with Python/tkinter, packaged as a single executable

The app is particularly useful if you:

- Work with Linux/Unix servers from Windows

- Need to mount NFS shares frequently

- Prefer GUI over command line

It's open source, MIT License, and you can download the executable directly without installing Python:
https://github.com/yani-/windows-nfs-manager/releases/latest

Screenshots and more info:
https://yani-.github.io/windows-nfs-manager/

Looking for feedback, especially on:

- Mount settings that would be useful to add

- Performance with large NFS shares

- UI/UX improvements

I was surprised when you said "just ran a campaign largely predicated" because that wasn't how I saw her campaign. And this tweet is from 2020, not 2024, so it doesn't really prove your point. Trump and his MAGA friends might have framed it that way, but I need better evidence to believe what you are asserting.

I also found it strangely written and hard to read (as an adult). At the very end, on p. 72, there is a sort of appendix for teachers which says:

The total vocabulary of this book is 280 words, excluding proper names
and sound words. The 15 words in roman type should be familiar to
children reading on a third-grade level. The 20 words above third-grade
level are shown in italic type.

280 words seems rather few! That's probably why it reads like Gertrude Stein.
Read the UN report on the Attention Economy. Everything is connected to Attention being over fished by platforms.

The human pool of Attention is slow growing and finite (the limit being number of minutes in a day*people). Yet Content keeps exploding to infinity.

Just like inflation devalues money, content inflation devalues individual Attention.

In traditional economics, more money chasing the same goods = inflation.
In the Attention Economy, more content chasing the same attention = engagement inflation (harder to get noticed, costs more to be seen).

The real winners - Platforms, since they act like central banks controlling both supply (content) and demand (attention via algorithm).

The Attention Economy behaves like a manipulated market where demand is fixed but distorted, and supply keeps increasing, benefiting the gatekeepers (platforms) while exhausting the participants (creators, advertisers, businesses, users).

History teaches us where the story goes.
I call it the yoghurt effect.
> I think it's always conscious one way or the other. With or without DEI.

Isn't the central point of DEI that whites prefer whites due to an unconscious bias?

Then, on one hand you have a very conscious decision to hire a minority just because he or she is a minority. On the other hand, you have an unconscious bias that might or might not be there but you can't really measure it by definition because it's unconscious. It's not the same.

I never thought that. That part of me was irrelevant to the degree, and I found it great that no one cared and were able to focus on the degree.

Forcing diversity topics in and making them a focus instead would have been hell.

The issue here is that power not exercised is power lost, and power fundamentally comes down to either perceived or actual consequences.

All people have some degree of racist tendencies - regardless of gender, sex, color, etc. And criminal tendencies. And other tendencies.

And what actual consequences will be applied that impact one group or another tend to go in cycles/pendulum back and forth (and hence impact what percent of the population is going to do x, and how many will see real consequences for those actions).

That is because when one group overdoes it (or is perceived to), enough people get tired of that group/outraged, and then things shift. And these patterns tend to be on coarse criteria like gender/sex/color/race/language, etc. because the most brazen users of any sort of shitty force/violence/shaming/whatever are exactly the type of people who are the shittiest. And every group of people have a percent that is shitty.

For instance, for many years now shame has been a major consequence, along with legal action.

So eventually, we end up with a group/leader essentially immune to shame and legal action, who is now going to use do all sorts of shameless and illegal things. Really, a large group of people like that. And who don’t mind violence (or the threat of it) as a potential consequence.

Eventually, being a shameless crook will fall out of fashion (or will have finally hurt/pissed off enough people), and another counter group will rise to take it’s place.

Often, when it gets particularly ugly/strong in one direction or another, there is also a corresponding backlash against the particularly strong users of the prior ‘fashion’ of power.

Sometimes beheadings, or ostracizing, or legal harassment, or whatever.

Weinstein getting what he got (as deserved as it was), was one swing. We’ll see who gets this next counter reaction.

Why do you think the dems and tech companies are going out of their way to be as friendly to the incoming admin as they are? They know the score, and are trying to avoid getting whacked.

That's almost certainly a lie...but weird things happen.

I keep hearing about Republican book bans, but I've only heard they don't want certain books to be available to children in schools, not that they should be banned in general. Compare this with liberals who got some Dr. Seuss and other books cancelled and removed from Amazon etc.

It's seems like both sides attempt to decrease accessibility to literature that they find objectional, but neither has achieved an actual ban.

You're being flippant but stocking things that people want is actually far more complicated than this. If you're looking to cater to an ethnic group you have to actually understand what they buy and how. If stock the wrong brands, or you import them from another country that does it slightly differently, then people won't buy your stuff. It's not about "Taiwanese noodles" it's "these are the noodles I would typically pick up at Ranch 99".

As for AI images being horrible, I disagree 100%. If I, as an independent artist, had made some water colors, chalk, or line drawings of the Hollywood sign burning, would that be so horrible? What if I did a photo-realistic oil painting, like John Baeder's, "that couldn't easily be distinguised from the real thing" - and they were widely circulated as "photographs" and confused with same - would that be so horrible?

Is there a real need to see real images of the Hollywood sign aflame versus an AI generated one? As long as it happened, the two images tell roughly the same information. And even if it's untrue, it's not like a burnt or unburnt sign matters that much either way.

And there's an idea that all mediums produce a certain bias, I think McLuhan's Medium is the Message had some ideas along those lines. The act of taking a particular photograph is, itself, a subjective and biased action. I don't know if that's true or not, but it's an idea.

The comment didn't respond to anything specific in the article. It just used it as a springboard to make a generic comment about a much more general topic. That's what I mean by generic tangent.

Generic tangents always make threads less interesting, because they take attention away from the specifics of what's new in an article and direct it instead to one of the large pre-existing topics that people tend to fixate on. I sometimes compare this to a spacecraft flying too close to a black hole and getting sucked in: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que....

It was flamebait in two ways: (1) Generic tangents on inflammatory topics are already flamebait; and (2) the comment makes a huge assumption (that the previous situation was "racism / sexism") and treats that as fact without substantiating it. Large unsubstantiated claims about inflammatory topics are also flamebait.
Conditional concat should be pretty rare. When are you doing that?
Your comment about white people that didn't have anyone to do with slavery doesn't seem entirely correct. I'm one of those people (great grandparents were German or Scottish immigrants). But my mom's house is in a neighborhood where black people were explicitly prohibited from buying houses (it was on the deed at the time). And, loans from the government were red lined. Isn't that government collusion that benefitted only me and harmed black people? It didn't help Latinos or Japanese immigrants in the twenties. I'm not sure if that counts as having nothing to do with slavery. That impact seems directly correlated to slavery, although the dragnet could have impacted recent African immigrants in the 1920s.

Definitely agree nobody will vote for anything that costs them anything.

But my kids are mixed race partial African heritage and I do think it behooves us as Americans to think about rectifying that terrible wrong on my wife's side of the family. There are dozens of examples of horribly wrong headed ways to do that (Brazil had some really creative and disastrous ideas), but we should at least acknowledge the lingering effects that still impacts people today that are descendants of slaves.

Maybe I'm just sensitive because it feels like Florida, where I currently live, is trying to wipe away that history. Why inhibit discussion about it?

You're trying to seek refuge in math you barely understand to escape contradiction but it's not even a problem with GNFS, the fundamental problem is that you're trying to do something you mathematically cannot do, which is squaring sums of money. It's equivalent to a division by zero in a demonstration, it just nullifies all the reasoning around it.
