I think there are different niches, pokimane belongs to the niche of teen simps (to which most of the internet consumers belong). But there are also other niches: comedy, travel, music, gameplays, competitive gameplays, funny gameplays, politics, science, etc. Where looks aren't everything... In other niches, you can grab the public's attention with attractive thumbnails.

Robots are more efficient at work, they are easy to specialize (they do not need studies, just a program and its parts are made to measure for the job) and they consume less energy than human beings, so that should really be our future, intellectual humans and worker robots.

Food forests would be a quick early solution, the long-term solution would be the creation of vitamin supplements that contain all the necessary nutrients at a low cost and faster compared to what it takes to grow plants.

> "and let others determine if it is working or playing" (quote in your web page)

I do not distinguish between play and work when I do research in mathematics, but I have to work as a programmer because mathematicians are starving in Latin America (It is a phrase to say that they do not earn much, for those dumbasses who do not understand the joke and downvote me) and worse someone like me, 19 years old, without work experience nor university degree.

But if they destroy you and recreate you, are you still alive or die in the process?

I think that in HN there is a high quality in the comments and a low quality in the voting of publications, because in the first, people refrain from commenting stupid things because it gets them harsh criticism, but in the second, people can vote for stupid (or low quality) publications because they will not be criticized.

And most of HN (and of social media, and the world in general) is dominated by dumb people.

I would like someone to correct me if I am wrong, but I think we can never have 100% privacy because the destination IPs cannot be encrypted or hidden, so as long as the destination IP can be observed, the server that you are connecting at can be obtained (I know a server can host many web pages, but this requires the port, which cannot be encrypted either).

So I don't know to what extent this protocol can be useful.

The Russian version simply adds a CSS section for JS developers and an extra page at the end of the first section, I don't know if the content of the chapters differs from the English version.

I think that two concepts that are different should be separated:

Software engineering is like applied computing (the equivalent of applied mathematics) and computer science is the mathematical theory about computers.

All the "tools" and "APIs" and "blah blah" are made for software engineers who do nothing but create salable products and those tools are just work tools (like builders' hammer), they don't really participate in the science, those who participate in science are computer science researchers.

I am interested in computer theory, not software engineering, but in my country I have no alternative but to be a software engineer (academic researchers starve because there is no job unless you are a professor).

Anyway, I don't see it feasible to buy one of these, spend 500,000+ USD to occasionally travel somewhere on your vacation? That is the same reason why we did not buy a helicopter (mainly because we would have it parked throughout the year and also, the energy consumption makes it unviable for daily use).

Until a car is created that can take off from the streets and has low energy consumption, it cannot be said that we have a "flying car", at the moment we only have a "car-helicopter hybrid".

And... is this (the regulations and standards) good or bad? It is good if you compare the number of air and car accidents before there were "regulatory licenses" and "industry standards" and now

I feel that it is still too early to approve the use of this vehicle ... Not only does it need an aircraft and vehicle license, this car is a "hybrid car-plane" and its "transformation" from car to plane on the streets should also be regulated. (Imagine deploying and turning on those propellers in the middle of a narrow street, it would be necessary to take it to a heliport to transform it) apart from the control of the airspace and an endless number of other things (collisions with buildings?). It's the classic pre-"flying cars" regulation from science fiction stories.

In practice, no one renounces their child or their intellectual property or important information (looking from the skin of companies), no matter how much you impose a thousand fines, only when the fines exceed the value of the person or information seized, you could be renounced to this, for example: to be fined a million dollars if you rescue your son.

But this is a stupid solution... Instead of punishing yourself for something that isn't your fault (or something you overlooked like not creating a backup, or, in the case of children, not taking good care of your son), well this problem can be prevented and the irresponsible punished BEFORE the tragedy happens. I propose that companies that do not have a backup of their information be fined, or in the case of companies (financial, social networks that do not want the information to be disclosed), regulate the security of their company or otherwise be fined. With this, he punishes himself BEFORE the tragedy and not AFTER.

If the fines come AFTER, the ransomware is not mitigated, the hijackers get what they want.

In my comment above I talked about applying security standards or backups, I see that forcing companies to have backups is more viable...

To better understand my point of view, read my example above and the comment of "luckylion ". Companies are simply not going to report because their intellectual property becomes more valuable than the ransom payment. This law does not mitigate anything, instead a backup regulation would mitigate the problem (because it would not be necessary to pay the ransom, if you need such explicit help to understand things).

And... where is the error in my comment?

I just skipped the sequence: one thousand billion, ten thousand billion, one hundred thousand billion so as not to lengthen my comment and I did it by jumping to the millions directly.

Google translator makes a creeper with the "billions", read my comment in english.

Look, an example with apples:

Jhon is a guy who does not care about the security of his company and does not create backups, suddenly he receives a ransomware attack and all his data is now encrypted, he has no option but to pay the ransom or all his intellectual property will be unusable , so he pays, and since he paid the criminals, he also pays a fine for incentivizing ransomware ... At the end of the day nothing was fixed and the ransomware groups are happier than ever.

In a parallel universe we have an improved system, here it is regulated that all companies have either a backup of their information or a very robust system without back doors. Here Jhon also does not care about the security of his company, then it is discovered that Jhon does not have a backup copy and he is fined, Jhon pays and is forced to improve the security of his company, then he does it, then he receives an attack of ransomware, but Jhon refuses to pay because his company already has better security ... At the end of the day Jhon paid a fine, but the ransomware teams didn't get what they wanted, the problem was fixed here.

It is an example, I am not comparing children with data.

Oh yes, all companies have backups. I think you didn't understand the point.

Great, now with the same logic the US Treasury Department should impose fines on parents who want to pay the ransom for their kidnapped children, because obviously (paying the ransom) benefits and promotes the illicit objectives of the kidnappers... Jesus Christ.

Anyone have any reasonable explanation for this? Wouldn't it be better to fine companies that don't have a security standard for their data?

After a thought experiment I was able to determine the meaning of "billion":

- It can be said that there are one thousand million (1,000,000,000)

- It can be said that there are ten thousand million (10,000,000,000)

- It can be said that there are one hundred thousand million (100,000,000,000)

But it cannot be said that there are a million million (1,000,000,000,000), it is said that there is a "billion".

- Then, there may be a million billion (1,000,000,000,000,000,000)

But there cannot be a billion billion (1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000), it is said that there is a "trillion"

- Then, there may be a million trillion (1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000)

- There may be a billion trillion (1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000)

But there cannot be a trillion trillion (1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000), you say "quadrillion", and so on...

Translating this with the google translator has been hell, every time I typed "one thousand million" and "million x" it translated into "billion", and every time I typed "billion", it translated into "trillion".

>People work overtime in every industry to meet deadlines, it's not just engineers. The only question is whether or it's good for you financially.

The article did not speak of "overtime", it was said that the engineer was asked to complete a task that would take a month, in 3 days (regardless of whether the author was exaggerating or not). What in "every" industry is called "labor exploitation" and is not something normal.

I also noticed that the author is in a bias, this is not a problem of the "software companies", this is a problem of "some software companies" that have a very bad administration, lack of experience in the industry or who intend to apply a disguised labor exploitation

Oh I understand, that is a really specific detail, they surely deduced that you wanted to sell them (for the amount (100)) although I am not sure if that was your intention. I think there should be a public blacklist of companies that are dedicated to piracy (because it is quite common, especially in China).

>There are large categories of products, this one included, where there are ZERO remaining US suppliers.

I don't know very well how patents and intellectual property protection work... But, if there are no suppliers of such a product in the United States (assuming your previous argument as true), then what product is being pirated? if there is none (worth the redundancy), to my understanding, there has to be a vendor whose product is being counterfeited within the united states for it to be taken as an infringement of intellectual property.

Other than that, you were not entitled to a trial? They just confiscated everything and there it ended?

HN people only correct the "false facts" that people (with their professional career of 2 or 3 internet searches perhaps) assume when commenting on a site full of professionals in the field that is covered in each publication... If you feel like debating, having basically "zero experience" in the subject matter, make a post on facebook or twitter and receive attention from people who are at the same level of ignorance as you, and return when you have a professional career and important information to share.

Here is the note on the investment cut in MDN: https://hacks.mozilla.org/2020/08/an-update-on-mdn-web-docs/

Why did they put the solar panels on the front? I personally prevent sunlight from reaching the screen due to the annoying reflection, putting it on the top and back seems a better option.

I found it ingenious that they used the console's own buttons as an additional source of power (I don't know of any console that does the same)

I got this question following a thread about censorship in the Middle East in the publication: https: //news.ycombinator.com/item? id = 24247561

I would be interested to know your opinion about the measures that governments could take that they censor their towns in case StarLink reaches rural areas of Middle Eastern countries (and countries in general that censor their local internet networks)

Exactly... I think that each browser should be responsible for offering its own documentation on its web APIs (after all, documentation is what allows developers to develop on your platform)... This is not the case, And although some browsers offer technical help (like your team), I think that all browsers should offer both technical and monetary help to MDN, or else, each browser finances its own documentation repository.

I totally disagree with making MDN a paid site ... Are developers supposed to pay to develop? ridiculous .... MDN should be kept open to contributions and donations but putting up a paywall only makes things worse for all of science in general.

hackernews is not an advertising platform, do not spam.

If this can help you ... From my own experience, I advise you that you should also ban music, external noises and any other distractions ... Basically to make your students bored and that the only thing that "entertains" them is to code in the computer.

By the way, I would be interested to know more about your project and its progress, if you could give me some form of contact I would greatly appreciate it.
