for the california legislation there were no "nay" votes. it's disapointing this performatively protective stance permeates both dominant right-of-global-center parties in America, but it is "all of them"

That'd be a "style-over-substance" fallacious argument. Or one could be hoping for a halo-effect to cloud the reader's opinion of their comment because some piece of software made it read like Enron-marketing-hogwash-speak.

>It will add an additional hour or two of effort to every resident of the state, even if they are below the state income threshold which is quite an externality.

Nope, that is false. The language of the bill only requires filing if tax is owed. There will be a handful of folks on the cusp who will need to calculate their AGI to determine their state tax liability but everyone else knows offhand if they need to file.

The language is "Individuals not owing tax under this chapter are not required to file a return..."

To be clear, this position is: "capitulate to the police state, or die" with no discussion about whether that should be the case.

It's a bad take.

yes? it's got sexist and classist elements and satirizes victorian culture.

i'd encourage reading it ahead of gifting (and i'd encourage grabbing it from archive.org or something, since it's 141 years old) because not all 10 yearolds are going to receive it the same way

this is one where "software forge" is industry specific jargon (similar to "isostaticrebound" in earthquake science and "evapotranspiration" in biology) which the intended audience would tend to know the definition of. that said, it's a fair complaint for the quality of their marketing material (if not their technical documentation).

as an aside, i checked and it takes four taps (with an thumb highlight thown in ) to define it from my phone.

I didn't watch the video but read the GOG post and did an AI summary of the video.

I don't see the "humiliated" part. GOG definitely is picking a tiny fight and taking a principled stance but there's no indication Blizzard even cares, is there?

is the problem Android, for you, or is the problem "Google Android", "Samsung Android", "Motorola Android, by Verizon"?

that FAQ is accurate but (rightly) doesn't cover high-security deployments.

if I'm running the bridges local-to-the-client (I am, on my McBook) it's not meaningfully any less e2ee. encryption happens in the matrix client (running on the laptop), the encrypted message is sent to the homeserver on localhost, the bridge (on localhost) grabs the encrypted message and decrypts it, then the bridge re-encrypts it and sends it to Whatsapp (or wherever). the content of the message is as secure over the wire with this approach as using first-party apps directly

if one hosts their own bridges they're person-in-the-middling themselves and should take all the necessary precautions. if they're using beeper's hosted options they have to delegate read/write ability to beeper (though I think the signal and imessage bridges might be device-local), and beeper is clear about that.

right, I could've been clearer.

there's an implicit analogue between comments and submissions. i suspect low karma users use the only tools at their disposal for both

>I don’t understand why anyone would flag it.

I do, I didn't, but I understand why it happens. my HN account is 14 years old, I read comments frequently, comment rarely, upvote occasionally, and flag very very rarely.

I don't downvote because can't, I don't have enough karma yet. so, even if people who can't yet downvote don't know the full effects of flagging it's _literally_ their only option to indicate their belief something doesn't belong on the front page.

it's cool! (though i tried to sign in to poke around and hit a wall since there's no tag associated with the account)

that said, the tags are kinda steep.

the tags are pre-paying for the webapp in general (vs only knownplus) but i'd prefer tags be a convenient shortcut instead of a cost of entry. that is, figure out whatever the appropriate price is for the web app and charge that (this seems like it'd lend itself well to freemium, 2 plants for free, up to n $12/yr, up to n $??/yr).

i have 43 pots of indoor plants and many of those have two to four distinct species in them. so that'd be $135 to add a single tag to each pot vs ~$15? to buy a bunch of NFC stickers

the tags also mean it's a $25 experiment to see if i even like the product (i might not really be the target market, but soil/light/water ranges and requirements being a tap away is pretty cool). i've currently got a bunch of different colored glass blobs i use to help remind me of watering targets but i'll usually do a quick search when it comes time to repot and mix up new potting soil mixes

this thread is dramatic evidence there's demand for this product.

that said, I have to echo some of the other folks here: this tool is not useful for determining the risk to my dog.

problems: - items known to be not-toxic are listed as toxic (water?) -items known to be toxic are not weighed higher than non-toxic items in search - items with dosage dependent toxicity don't expose that toxicity (onions are toxic, my dog would need to eat several raw onions to have any toxicity) - items known to be extremely toxic in low dosages (like xylitol) aren't present - the toxic component of dishes aren't listed

I'm curious too how about some arbitrary requirements. it'd be fun (maybe useful?) to be able to pack in a cooler or a couple tires so let's say..

it should be able to carry a 0.5 m^3 cube and 70kg. maybe optimize for low cost and the ability to roll over some sporadic large cobble?

I strongly agree. I'm not convinced this submission is on-topic.

5 days without a human response is not great but it's not _awful_. Neither of the tagged reviewers have public commits in the last week, they may (hopefully are) both on vacation and enjoying some of the summer.

I've had open-source PRs wait for a couple months before people were able to take a look, stuff happens, people have things come up and people have competing priorities.

I really want to point out the timeline here:

  - drive-by PR was opened Sunday 8/6 at 8AM PT
  - CLA was agreed to Sunday 8/6 at 8:30AM PT
  - two... maintainers? were pinged Sunday 8/6 at 11:11AM PT
  - grumpy missive about Microsoft was written Friday 8/11 and posted to HN at 10:25AM PT

4 work days without a comment on a drive-by PR seems... fine?

what's the issue here? if you buy large headphones from the same company you buy the your phone from, in a future where fairphone no longer exists (which playing the odds, is likely) at some point your also no-longer-supported phone (which functionally becomes slower every year because mobile application hardware requirements appear to double every year) might advance to support new fancy bluetooth things your headphones don't support?

I honestly (not hyperbolicly) don't see how a phone not having a 3.5mm jack is relevant to the headphones _having_ a 3.5mm jack
