What are your feelings towards Lippert? How has the knowledge affected your life?

The anti vaxxers would love vaccines mandated by law. It would be the quickest route to an entire population turning anti-vax and setting back humanity by 100 years. But I am all for banning bullshit claims made by ineffectual remedies.

This story is so heartbreaking. I expected to see an old restored photo from the distant past, and being sold by a slaver not a parent. Sadly, this plays out today in many countries with parents or grandparents selling children into sex sla

It is most likely that company simple has a HR policy regarding pay and positions. If you Senior if you earn > $X. The "Senior" hires may have significant outside industry experience, even if they only have 9 months of programm

I am quite sure that if the FAA banned Chinese, or European, aircraft the same accusations would apply.

I don't think this is true. Certainly in many countries GDP calculations are transparent. The economists calculating them are bureaucrats who serve the government, not whichever party is currently in power.

Zuck has such a long track record of lying and treating his users with contempt, I trust nothing he says.

If this was in a sci-fi action movie I would roll my eyes at the implausiblilty of it. If it actually works... Wow!

Machine learn is also called statistical learning. It does not mean deep learning which is a subset of ML. Creating a model in python or R is going to be much easier than in excel.

Literally handing over your most valuable customer data to a current or future competitor. Surely only small time ecommerce operations in niche industries would dare use this.

What is cheap? I see some modules on aliexpress for about us$20 but with very limited bands... And I wonder if patent fees are being for those.

Depending on the cost I would definitely buy one as a hackable remote. For now the esp32 based M5stack fills this role. If someone builds a backplate with 4G I would definitely consider this to replace my smartphone.

That is a little concerning. They are explicitly refusing to say the software is not a trojan. It would make me think twice about using it.

Well 10% of the front page of the internet, and they do have 20% of the world population. There is no way China would allow Reddit to operation in China, and there is no way China would allow a western company to own a significant percentag

Waiting for the API to be turned off to force use of the official app. I am subscribed to lots of niche subreddits and love browsing reddit from my app of choice, but when the day comes that they force me to use the reddit app, I will aband

Nobody is selling to for $5. Adafruit sells it for $10 excluding shipping, ebay sellers have it listed for about $15/10 GBP with free shipping. The price really is a lie for consumers. Maybe $5 refers to the price they sell to distribu

I have not written a new PHP app in years but recently I had a look at the latest and greatest from the PHP community and its pretty good. The frameworks and tooling look about as good as you will get anywhere and PHP appears to be fast now

Larry and Sergey have pretty much semi retired with about $50 billion each. Short of Alphabets share price plumetting, why would they come back now if they haven't already?

Same reason people use a shotgun for home defense not a grenade! Limited penetration. much lower required accuracy. If you miss you don't send a shell in a random direction. You can shoot at targets very close to the tank barrel.

There are plenty of religious people in Hacker News. I have no idea why you would think being religious or spiritual would prevent anyone from developing technology. My religious views do not stem from a lack of intelligence or education.

The CLI is self-documenting. xyz --help , -h or --help | grep 'abc', along with man xyz gives you everything you need to know. This is probably one of my favorite things about the CLI versus GUI. There is nothing worse than
