I’m curious what you would rather have them do. Just put up a giant paywall like every other newspaper?

Fish, as described in the article. And when they freeze to death to toss them down a cliff.

I love this page to bits and I wish Ishkur would update it with more recent genres. Like where’s the amapiano, afro house, brazilian phunk, even future bass (which is half ancient at this point) isnt featured. His commentary is usually hila

Must be pretty cool to blog something and post it to a nerd forum like HN and have it picked up by the Economist! Nicely done.

Are you just theorizing, or is there precedent of this? I mean of lawyers sending cease and desist letters to people torrenting random encrypted streams of data?

Appreciate your response, thanks for the clarity. I think whoever downvoted me thought I was being insincere but I really wasn't - it's not a weird idea to expect a country that calls itself communist to have something resembling

I know little about China, but every so often I meet someone who's rather fond of it (usually a passionate hardcore leftie¹), and says stuff like "in China nobody is unemployed, in China nobody is homeless" because apparently

Nitpick, but > A normal, dual income, middle class working family > (Doctor + teacher, Lawyer and a Doctor, Business exec and Accountant, etc) That’s not the middle class.

The weirdest thing about this is that eg “Pete’s” is correct. You can say “Pete’s over there” vs “Pete’s house is nice”, and the meaning is clear. You guys really need an Academy Anglaise indeed! (I wasn't aware that does not exist

Yeah stuff like useEffect which is supposedly a function that "lets you synchronize a component with an external system" [0] So eg when you want to focus an input, how do you do that? That's the input itself right, that'

Fwiw I think the personal attribution gives it a nice touch.

I like "Alastair's Grand Theory of In-App Webviews": the main reason webviews in apps have such a bad reputation is because you don't notice the webviews that are integrated seamlessly

Nah the thing we call liberalism is much milder than that. It’s like the watered down, we-do-trust-the-government-but-maybe-tone-it-down-a-little version of libertarianism. I mean the same meaning as eg the Economist gives the term. I think

by skrebbel 1y ago
Yeah wow huh! It took me many years of reading HN to figure out that “liberal” means “left” in the US. In my (European) country, the word means nearly the opposite, a belief in individual freedoms, free speech, free markets, small governmen

I really suck at math, especially when continuous functions are involved (ie non-CS-y math). Usually when mathy articles are posted on HN, I quickly give up, but I just ate this article up. I'm really impressed with the clear explanati

Totally off topic, but opening this page and seeing the typography makes me want to read it. Yay clarity! (Edit: the many many paragraphs of fluff before unveiling the actual method did counter this effect somewhat)

So then if I do "mix deps.get" to fetch elixir libs, will that work? will it be able to compile files that are outside the sandbox?

I'm not a Linux user (yet) and I'd like to understand what "immutable" means here. Does it mean that I can't, eg, install Elixir or an IDE on it? I have absolutely no interest in deeply tuning the OS, which is why I
