I get the argument (and counter arguments), but regardless of where one stands, can we all appreciate the irony of the Electronic Frontier Foundation making an appeal for paper fiat?

I'm not familiar with conservatism in the Netherlands, but I don't think that is accurate description of conservatism in the US. A conservative sees inherent value in clean air, water, land for future generations and for preserva

From CDC on antibody tests: A positive test result shows you may have antibodies from an infection with the virus that causes COVID-19. However, there is a chance a positive result means that you have antibodies from an infection with a vir

That was my gut reaction too. Isn't this just saying "it's turtles all the way down"?

I’ve often said the same thing. South Pole and underwater cities would be easier than mars or even moon colony. As much as I want the later to happen- I think 1 million people on Mars or Moon will require something that makes them more ap

I've helped build this and the related mobile app over the past year and am pretty proud of it. Would love feedback.

Can I ask _how_ you did this? I've done some things like block sites on various devices, etc. But I do find myself still - when I'm waiting for a build to complete or whatever - sliding over to whateveroutragesite.com almost com

As others have mentioned your url is incorrect. FWIW, I was always taught that this verse meant that, since God is love, if one loves God first, it will improve ones love for family, etc. Also that when one does love their children, etc,

I feel like this is pretty spot on to my experience with these tools. I've tried lots of these tools, and been in place to have to recommend them to customers looking for workflow and forms tools "so our business analysts can bui

Agree 100%. I've felt a little guilty too. I started working from home full time about 4 months before covid landed in US. I'd built a nice above garage office. Kids homeschooled already. Planted a garden that's doing we

One thing I’m not finding in this or similar tools is how to do row level authorization. For example: imagine a “forms” table. Users can submit forms and see and edit “their” forms, but not those of other users. Users need GET/POST

This was my first thought too. Abandoned oil platform or big enough barge off the coast to get around some of the land constraints in UK? Be sure to let HN know when you launch this thing, OP.

I built https://rootshirechess.glitch.me/ for my kids to play chess with cousins and grandparents during the epidemic. I put “buy me a coffee” on and posted a couple places about it. Made ~24$ on it ;)

Absolutely have been saying this for years. It’s ridiculous for iMessage to be a walled garden. How would it be if emails from iPhone could only go to other iPhones? Yet shrink the email and put a blue bubble around it and that’s just fi

Reading the docs, I'm confused how this is secured. For example, if I have a table UserOrders (UserId, OrderId, Foo), how do I ensure the backend is only returning records for the current user?

Really like this idea. As a consultant I often get asked “what is the best payment processor/analytics/hosting/etc”. I often feel a little dirty saying “Stripe/Google/Azure or AwS” because I haven’t _really_ evalu

I made https://rootshirechess.glitch.me (desktop chrome works best atm) so my kids could play chess and have a video chat with grandparents and cousins. I publicized it a little and have been happy to see that several people ar

I’m probably the worst person to give advice on this. I have a board full of half baked ideas and never enough time to do them. But one thing that comes to mind in general about “analysis paralysis” is to give yourself permission to fail.

Cheaper tier would be great. I can think of some things I could use this for that are not 50$/mo things. Scraping personal finance, automating personal blog etc. but I definitely understand a startup needing to figure out pricing

How on earth do they know for sure someone has never been exposed to a germ? Couldn’t it just be the antibodies were from very limited exposure?

I may try this, but a couple thoughts I'd love feedback/ideas on: 1) I routinely get into these "browser time loops" while waiting for a build. App's got 30s build time? Ah, I'll check reddit. 30 minutes lat

Armchair prognosticator here, but is there not a zero-knowledge proof way of doing this? A way so that neither side (or intermediate) can learn the identity of the other?

ELI5 "anti-correlated" here? What I envision is the temporal circuit acting like a computer clock, and the other as input/output. But "anti correlated" makes it sound like that's not the case?
