How is your experience with buyer disputes? That's the biggest issue I hear about on ebay

You completly ignored everything that I said

This is something I've thought as well, an easy example would be abortion - one group thinks that abortion is literally murdering a child, another thinks that it's an inalienable right that a woman has to preform any operation to her own body. There's no way to make both these people happy at the same time.

There are a lot of logistic issues, though, I doubt this will ever happen.

The mitigating circumstances are the un-nessicary stress and responsibilities of dealing with anyone who doesn't 100% agree with what you're saying. Unfortunately these are pervasive on pretty much any platform you are on, so there's no good way around it.

I just looked through the headers of a request to google.com, expecting this to be wrong, but it does look like this is there! Right at the bottom, x-client-data. The value ends with == which makes me think it's some kind of hash. Crazy. It does not exist when I use ungoogled chromium, firefox, or even edge.

Just want to predict it now - this year's cloudflare birthday thing?

Why did you assume that's what this would be?

Those are for people who are specifically not here legally and therefore don't recieve the full protection of our constitution and laws. While I vehemently disagree with these camps, there's no reason to assume a re-born America's laws would apply to people who are not citizens/legally accepted into its borders. A fix for these camps would be to guarantee the same protections we Americans enjoy to people who come here illegally, which can be accomplished using the current framework we have today.

>but the more I've thought about it over the years, the more I've realized there's almost no aspect of American life worth preserving

There is so much about America that is worth preserving. One easy example right off the top of my head is the law and culture that enables people to peacefully demonstrate like they are today. Even discussing the idea of doing this in many countries could get you killed - or worse! That's another amazing thing (again, just off the top of my head), in America the worst punishment we have is death, and even that is outlawed in many places. The idea of an internment camp[0][1] is not even considered.

The account someone posts something from has nothing to do with the validity of their argument.

A while back I got diagnosed with carpal and cubital tunnel. After many, many hours of research, I eventually bought a Quefrency from Keebio (https://keeb.io/pages/assembly-service has the premade ones) to see if it would help. I can now confidently say, if you are worried about getting CT, or you have it and want something easier on your hands, you _need_ to check this out. Seriously, for most people on here an injury like CT can make you lose your job. The split form factor really helps alleviate the pain. Not bending your wrists or elbows helps way more than you can imagine. Even now my hands will still hurt if I use a regular keyboard but I can type on my split board all day long. The Quefrency also has the advantage of not being a different form factor (like the Dactyl), it's just a standard 60% split staggered layout (the smaller form factor helps reduce finger travel as well, but imo it's mostly the split). Plus, it just runs off a pro micro so you can flash your own firmware very easily (it runs on QMK which is open source)

I've also heard good things about the levinson and nyquist but I haven't personally tested them. I have also used an Iris for a while and like it a lot, but it looks like they're backordered for now. The viterbi looks a little big imho, but if you want a big split board it would definitely be a good option.

I actually am somewhat in the keyboard business right now (I got inspired by how well it worked, and it's really fun!), if anyone has any questions or needs some recommendations feel free to AMA.

BTW, if you end up going with a different form factor, be ready to type at 10-20WPM for at least a week or two. When I got my first ortho board, I typed at 13WPM and gained back roughly 5-10WPM a week. You can't use a standard layout while you learn, either, or you lose a ton of the muscle memory.

I have used Debian for a while (2-3 years) and do not have that feeling.

I didn't say it was better overall, I was just responding to "I expect day 2 would have been a lot worse." from the OP

Day 2 may have been a lot better as store owners started to take matters into their own hands. We only saw the first day, which many people were unprepared for. A lot less people would be willing to loot if they had a friend who died after getting shot by a store owner with a shotgun. Not that this is really any better, I'm just trying to say that we can't really reach any conclusions from one day of this experiment

You're backing a claim made without any evidence by using another claim without evidence

Private security guards can't use the word police on their uniforms. I looked it up a while ago (I asked the exact same question you did) - IIRC the rule is that you are only allowed to use it if you aren't issuing any orders and there isn't an unrelated reason for people to think you are an official officer. If you see the word police they are either someone pretending to be an officer (and must follow the rule I just wrote) or a real police officer.

In many cities (including mine, which has a lot of private security) the word POLICE is written in all caps and large letters on the back and front of their shirts. It's hard to make the distinction until you see them once, then it's pretty clear

You could create a file named ; echo 'hi'; #

and it appears as if it would probably run anything you put between ; and # (in this case it will echo hi). Unless the filename is sanitized, which it appears to not be.

I agree with everything you're saying and every single point you're trying to make here, but, as someone who's been on the other end, your responses are exactly why people hate posting about this stuff publicly. He doesn't have the authority to speak on it (alone) but you trapped him into accidently saying something he wasn't trying to say (in fact he only said it to be nice and reply to your question - which he had no obligation to even acknowledge). There was nothing he could have said that would have made you (or me or any of us on HN) happy, no information he was allowed to give out, but on his own volition he chose to respond to and validate your questions, and you reacted by saying "Aha! I got you now!"

That said, it seems likely to me that if this somehow stopped advertising revenue, it would have been fixed before HN even noticed. "No way to fix it for at least a few days" seems very untrue, that department just isn't lead by someone who cares enough about this issue to make it happen. It's not the tweeter's fault, though.

To flip this on its head, would you argue that the people working to secure the Nazi's torture camp computers were being the good guys? Did they have any ethical obligations to make it easier for Ally powers to decipher the records after the war was won (or even before) to help people reunite with their families?

You still need to actively persue the healthcare even if your country pays for it.

Why would Amp allow the ads to be less blockable? Extensions still run

I learned to program years ago in high school. Git was one of the things that I just never got. I remember used git as a "staging" platform and struggling so hard to resolve all the problems that kept coming up (I'm sure they were actually relatively simple to anyone who knows git, like a merge conflict or detached head or something) so much I eventually wrote a script to use rsync to copy and paste files that had changed since I last "pushed" to prod. Now that I understand how it works inside and out, I can appreciate how amazing git is, but I don't think it's the kind of thing that should (or even could) be taught to teenagers. I hope github keeps this mainly focused on web IDE with automatic grading and turn-in instead of trying to get kids to learn Git

In 2018 google demonstrated interest in re-entering the chinese market: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dragonfly_(search_engine)

It wouldn't be a stretch to assume there's something going on behind the scenes that China could use to force Google's hand. I'm not saying that's what happened but that is a possible response I was thinking about when writing my original comment.

I just meant that Tiktok is a chinese owned company (and therefore state-owned). China has forced companies to do similar things before.

This really hits on a lot of nerves of the general HN crowd (especially when these things are combined):

- Google

- "Censorship" (loosely defined)

- China (vs India vs a US company, which could really be its own point)

But if you read the article it seems to be a logical decision. Google (likely) did something similar for zoom: https://www.androidpolice.com/2020/03/24/zooms-android-app-r...

Assuming there's nothing left out by the author, I don't really think there's anything newsworthy here, just something that google did that aligns with its past actions (not to say it doesn't belong on HN)

How come not site:stackoverflow.com? Is this just a different way of doing the same thing? I've never heard of the inurl: flag

I remember reading something that said is how spotify makes discover weekly playlists (but I can't find it now), so I wouldn't be too surprised

Mostly a severe reduction in air travel (airplane fuel is really really really bad for the environment)

It could've been my setup, to be honest I had just finished fixing all the pseudo classes and was kind of frustrated and decided to just switch to png after I couldn't figure it out in 5 minutes hahaha

But whatever the case is, Safari definately does not support webp and special exceptions need to be made to support this edge case.

For every example you can find me of a website that doesn't support safari I could find 10 that make exceptions to do so. The point isn't that nobody does it, it's just that most companies who want to make money from the general population (aka most of them) have to.

Roll20 is also such a niche thing already it's not really a fair example. People who want to use roll20 will use another browser because they want to play dnd with their friends. Most stores don't have that social aspect.
