I suspect I've had my time wasted on some of these as well. Whether it's H1B or some "policy" that requires the company to go through the motions of publicly posting a job and interviewing, when in fact they want to do a

People need to recognize that wasting your time is STEALING. No matter how it's done. And they need to respond accordingly.

What is "BYD" supposed to mean?

I absolutely support the free availability of research papers that were funded by the public, but is there some justification for making the materials in question here free to all? Or is the "library" here simply stealing from aut

Is what?

That's ONE incident that was known to be incipient, and into which you would never send children. As I said, there are typically 364+ days a year of riot-free peace prevailing. The "riff-raff" in my neighborhood consists of g

What "destruction and violence" are you talking about? No neighborhood I visit or have lived in is rife with "riff-raff," and kids are still mollycoddled door-to-door.

Did anyone claim that?

L.A. is a giant county masquerading as a city, spread out with many areas' density being that which is generally called "suburban." Nobody is advocating sending kids out into a riot. So that leaves... I'm gonna go out on

Why? What rationale is given?

by ShadowBanThis01 3y ago
If your job doesn't allow you to get your kid to school at 8:30 and no earlier, you need a job that treats you like an adult. + Sad that some downtrodden drones try to bury this sentiment instead of demanding better treatment.

I don't know. It seems to be getting worse. Entire neighborhoods now come to a standstill because hundreds of giant cars converge on a school to deliver or pick up one kid at a time. And this is in L.A., home to probably the least-chal

But starting absurdly early presumably means kids get OUT absurdly early, so it doesn't solve the work problem.

Understood. Just wanted to bring this up because the article ignores most of the possibilities of push notifications.

You used to be able to do this right on Google’s search-results page. Taking it away was just another “up yours” from Google to you.

Don’t assume that a push notification is going to be shown to the user. It may be for consumption only by the app, to avoid the need for polling a remote server. I expected this article to discuss push-notification payloads and use cases, b

by ShadowBanThis01 3y ago
I was just pondering what kind of push notifications I’ll need for an app I’m writing, so I was pretty psyched to see this title. How disappointing to find that the title is BS, applied to an article that’s focused entirely on spamming. Pus

Thinking it through, I assume it's on the client side. Maybe something is wrong with the JavaScript that's doing the validation... but do Safari and Firefox use the same engine? I don't know what else could vary based on plat

So far so good. I'll try using this first from now on, and see how it does. Good luck!

More incorrect usage of "hallucinated" for simply made-up or inaccurate results.

by ShadowBanThis01 3y ago
Which, to be fair, is really the correct thing to teach since in the vast majority of cases that's where the fault is! On the other hand, I find a lot of bugs. Not in things as refined as compilers, usually, but if I had a dollar for e

I don't know why you should feel bad about that. If anything, you should feel good that you independently recognized a problem so significant that it was given a name. I assume most problems I face are solved, and that I just don'

No one has ever stated any other reason (even on the very, very few occasions when someone even bothers to make an excuse).

I've heard enough reports about more than one of them that I'm willing to condemn them all without specific examples. My girlfriend works in restaurant management and has seen the douchebaggery first-hand. Oh, and drivers taking c

If you complain about headlines on HN you'll get attacked. Or even you mention this fact. Flag away, infants.

Reportedly a lot more people became aware of ad-blockers than ever would have without Google's hissy fit. How much follow-through and ad-blocker installation that translated to, I have no idea. But it's fun to mock Google anyway.

The sad reality is that consumers are ever more spineless. This particular kind of rip-off started years ago when cable companies got away with charging for ad-riddled channels that used to be part of "basic cable." Amazon will pr

I hope this backfires as did Google's crackdown on YouTube ad-blockers. I already have a VPN and BitTorrent trackers I can rely on. I'm willing to (and do) pay for content. But I will not pay to watch ads. Amazon are scumbags who
