There are alternatives to that. For all of the hype and vaporware of the cryptocurrency movement, the idea of digital-native programmable internet money is a powerful one. I’m personally excited by the idea of involving currency at the prot

Have a look at OCaml, and also at its new spinoff, ReasonML. I think it may be what you’re looking for - compile-to-native systems language, great type system with 20 years of development behind it, and functional without being dogmatic and

It’s a bit of a leap to assume that TOR is vulnerable here, considering it disables JavaScript which is necessary for this exploit to work. Let’s not get carried away here please, there’s no need to stoke fears about TOR in this instance.

I was thinking the same, so I'm hoping they'd just fire and then re-hire them!

I'm having a hard time believing that the AI isn't human assisted in some way. I'd expect some incoherent output but there really isn't much. Very fun to watch though.

I mostly agree with you but this is a fairly uncharitable read of small town Americans. You say yourself that socialism won’t fix the plight of their towns dying out, so they’re not wrong to be against socialism in this case. Furthermore, m

Apologies if I’m misunderstanding, but are you implying that amazon doesn’t commingle products? Allegedly this is the reason that you can order a “sold by amazon” product but still receive a counterfeit item (likely provides by a 3rd party

Yep, exactly, and furthermore this is a deliberate strategy on the part of China, and a naive strategy on the part of the US. Here’s a good article on this very topic that you might enjoy: https://mattstoller.substack.com/p&

I got about halfway through TIS-100, realized that what I actually wanted to do was to finally learn assembly language, and actually went ahead and wrote a working Fizzbuzz program in x86 assembler! Really the best outcome for not finishing

I can’t say that has been my personal experience, and I feel like I use AUR pretty extensively, but I can see how that would be very frustrating if that’s been your experience with it. I am often surprised at what’s available on AUR — my mo

I’d give Manjaro a try. It’s an arch based distro where they take care of setting up a desktop environment for you, while including a nice install experience. After that, you’re basically in arch land, which is an excellent no-frills stripp

I think this could be the tiles, if anyone else is curious: http://www.ice.org/tiles/ Super cool project! Would be fun to have a modern equivalent.

This is, in my opinion, a really baseless claim. There’s plenty of critical discussion on HN that runs against YC interests. There’s also plenty of intelligent political discussion on here. The modded stuff is modded because it is content-f

I would guess that surveillance gets discussed here almost daily, and most readers are probably familiar with why it’s bad and that we should oppose it and write our legislators and etc. Parent poster’s comment - a call to arms - is almost

I think the keto / paleo things continued with “...and that’s why we modern humans should emulate a paleo diet.” So, parent poster doesn’t agree with this theory and it’s adherents.

This comment brings zero new points to the discussion, and just reiterates the point that parent was responding to. It’s not very constructive or substantial in my opinion, so I downvoted it.

You might come up with use-cases after going through a few of the examples. You know that expression, "when the only tool you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail"? Well, I think you can use that to your benefit. Once yo

Arguably, a significant percentage of skid row’s residents wouldn’t be there if they had the option of buying a clean, consistent dose from a pharmacy. Instead, they have to buy dangerously tainted drugs from professional criminals, and pay

Your comment is thoroughly within an anti-Semitic tradition of singling out and delegitimizing jewish citizens practicing politics, by accusing them of dual loyalty.

A few things you could try: taking a magnesium supplement, use a weighted blanket, add some exercise to your routine. Is there noise that might be waking you up? A white noise machine or earplugs could help. Are you sharing your bed with so

Wait, why are we in a race to get to 5G? Why are we in a competition with China over 5G? This is nothing but spin, and this kind of talk was probably originated by the telcos themselves, who benefit from this sort of high pressure tactic to

I think that if you configure the rest of the colors, then the commands will use those. I’ve set my urxvt term to use the solarized theme and I don’t have any problems with viewing colorized output. I’d have to test it, but I’m reasonably s

I like the visual design of the desktop as well as the website for it. The choice of key bindings seems good too — I like that the app launcher is bound to win+space, because I’ve always mentally thought of it as being similar to apple’s OS
