I don't understand putting your whole life online, failing to appreciate trolls will try to get personal because 4chan was down, and then taking your toys and going home because you engaged them. Don't engage them, don't list

This article is "let them eat cake" meets "never give anything away for free" ridiculous. The point of open source is to be cool and that's all. UBI is still crumbs for the misery of the legitimized and normalized t

E-ink wouldn't line-up with anything without knowing there is only one observer and the coordinates of that observer. It would be better, cheaper, and simpler to have an inflatable replica of whatever it is. https://en.wikip

It looks like an accordion of paper dolls because it's a Draken printed on the roof of a movable shelter.

Only if your imaging satellite had X-ray vision. Have a look again. You wouldn't put a no-roof shelter over a plane, and you wouldn't be able to see what's inside. Use common sense.

That's what it looks like to me from the unnatural bends and shadows in the silhouette. The photograph is Big Foot-quality, so it really doesn't matter what it was.

Bias is only complained about when people passive-aggressively bring their politics into a situation to warp the subject and distract. There is no such thing as "unbiased" reporting, just as it is impossible to "eliminate rac

I'm baffled there is such obvious hairsplitting on this on HN, of all places, against a notable educational book about the freakin Holocaust. One of my college roommates was assigned this text in a contemporary literature course as it

by errcorrectcode 5y ago
Exactly. Banning a book about the Holocaust and saying it's not banning reeks of the appearance of Holocaust denialism, white nationalism, and/or antisemitism. To avoid difficult, real subjects is to lie to children and make the

Holocaust denialism has no place here.

by errcorrectcode 5y ago
Let's just pretend the Holocaust didn't happen. Moonbeams, rainbows, and sunshine all the time. Oh and definitely don't teach the Armenian Genocide, WW1, WW2, The Trail of Tears, or slavery because that would hurt someones fe

I watched a recent interview of Art Spiegelman just this week on Democracy Now!. IIRC, he flatly called the 10 voting board members "baffling" and "stupid" for banning it for a naked corpse of a cartoon mouse, hanged mic

Anecdotal regional issue: I had an AirTag on my AirPod Pro's case that was stolen. I immediately notified Austin's police (APD) as I could see where it was going. Unfortunately, due to understaffing of 100-200 police officers and

OLAP isn't a technology and it didn't go away. That's an approach your and many other orgs have been using for decades to do data warehousing. NoSQLs definitely didn't go away. The need for denormalized data and data war

Prolog isn't a DBMS, it's a functional / logic programming language. It doesn't store tables or operate on relational algebra. How would you CRUD data DDL, DQL, DML, DCL, TCL against tables (not facts or variables) witho

Some people think maintaining bank accounts on Mongo would be a good idea. ACID, locking, referential integrity, SQL (language flavors and RE DBMSes) aren't appreciated, probably due to a lack of CS education.

R:BASE isn't listed, an important PC relational DBMS. Postgres / Enterprise DB converges towards compatibility with Oracle DBMS.

It's great that something was built. Amen. Similar problems to chatroulette, i.e., cyberdisinhibitionism, backgrounds/communication impedance mismatches, although hopefully not as many flashers. My luck, I'd get the homeless

That will happen faster than you can conceive because you won't be aware of the progress until it is announced. And, have you tried polling? I hear it keeps the CPU warm in winter. Interrupts are so ... this just in, Nike's stock

Gross and not portable C99. #define B6 (1<<5) #define B17 (1<<16) unsigned swapbits(unsigned a) { return ((a & B6 == a & B17) ? a : (a ^ (B6 | B17))); } Here's some BFP: unsigned

And this is how we reach the technological singularity and how programmers become as equivalently out-of-demand as piano tuners: self-programming systems. AI will eat any and all knowledge work because there's very little special a hum

Yes. Communication and availability overlap is important to get certain kinds of things unblocked. Plus, career-wise, it's bad to be a vampire no one ever meets or sees regardless of electronic responsiveness within their working hours

LOLs. I just read an Reddit item that "morale terrible at one FAANG and everyone's leaving". It wasn't Meta or Google, so that sorta narrows it down. Coincidentally, I met someone leaving AWS. You can have the best busin

Be careful who you peer with. You might catch some pathogenic routes. Always use protection.

Ah, blast from the past. HE brought us T-1's, T-3's, and IPv6 transit way back. Equinix owns PAIX on 529 Bryant St. as SV8. It's interesting how racks still aren't so much volume-, mass-, or network bandwidth-/trans
