I'd like to bring back an article, more analytical on this paratox (the title, Why You Should Never Pay For Online Dating, speaks a lot), from the old and now dead OkCupid blog.
Funnily, this post was deleted just after the acquisition from the Match Group in 2011.
> “Personally, I avoid heating food in any plastic with an automatic default to glassware.” Beyond never microwaving food in plastic, Vandenberg hopes people simply stop using it. She says, “The market will provide us with alternatives if we just don’t buy plastic.”
I find really astonishing how the article demonizes plastic and ends recommending glassware use, placing a product referral that have PLASTIC lids. Shouldn't we stop using it?
I'm a little OT (sorry), but I am wondering if is there a way to learn Rust while keeping up with the changes made from last edition (Rust 2018, which is 1.31)?
First off, good work! It is always nice to help people deal on this (sicked and badthought) platforms.
Anyhow, you should check also if a "tessera sanitaria" is considered a PHI since it includes the "codice fiscale" (and if I recall correctly, it is used often in "fascicoli sanitari" to identify an individual).

They also know and have experienced things you haven't.
I'd say that listen their description of the problem is the first (and maybe easy) part. But then you don't have to provide your solution, but rather find it together with that person.
Treating the other person as intelligent as you helps sharing the problem solving part instead of doing it individually.
I know what you're saying, but the question is interesting, perhaps poorly phrased, but interesting. And complaining about HN not being the right forum where to question seems something that I could read on reddit, not on here.
Generally I agree with most of the submissions, but this one is the most important.
I really love debian because of its principles (and I would love to contribute), but I feel that new contributors (like me) have problems because of the many (and some old) tools and outdated and non-friendly documentation.
Also, I don't know how many contributors come and stay, but even in unstable I see some outdated packages in weeks, and also some useful software that is not packaged.
I don't agree with this.
NGOs are primarily meant to do (morally) good things to the society where we live (usually help helpless people), where corporations pursue profit, which is usually not a bad thing unless they break the law (with a misleading behavior with the customers, antitrust, tax evading, and I'd like to say also lobbying).
Anyway, Steam users are also paying to consume the game, even if they don't own it. And I really doubt the 2% of their users read even the first paragraph of the EULA contract (where they do specify the above, yep I read it.)
Curious enough, years ago I've seen a blog post where the author used PNG lossless compression for FLAC audios.
Guess there should be a lot of room for improving both image and audio compression, even because we're still ending up using jpeg and mp3.
Why so pessimistic? Maybe when writing a blog you won't get more than a handful regular readers, but keeping it public stimulates you to talk about you, your job, and the solutions you got when encountered a problem (sure, you won't talk about how much you love your dog, I hope).
I'd also say that a well kept blog may be more important than a CV since you can actually tell how good you are in your job.
To answer the question: I used to blog with pelican, and now hugo.
