Latin characters are hardly alien to Japanese.

It's very straightforward, and although typing speed is not quite the same as English (for me, at least, although I am not a native speaker), it's not wildly different.

Typing a Japanese word or phrase is just like typing in English, with the exception of selecting the appropriate kanji from a list (no mouse or stylus required). An experienced typist can do this very quickly, on a physical keyboard or on a smartphone.

For a word like "Japanese" (language), i.e., Nihongo or 日本語, it's actually fewer keystrokes than in English: 5 vs. 8, or 9 if you count the space afterward since Japanese doesn't have the same spacing requirements.

Well, it clearly didn't take place in the US since she had an employment agreement that required a two-month separation notice from the employer.

A 2x increase for battery storage would be game changing for a wide variety of use cases. Electric vehicles, industrial applications...

Calling someone who has made himself remarkably vulnerable and open a "bozo" because he doesn't have the same values or life experiences as you do is unkind and uncharitable. We all experience things in our own time and our own way, and while I have my own thoughts about his experiences and areas that he might examine more closely, I'm also not revealing personal details of my own life for public examination.

Unnecessary? I think non-whites would take issue with that. Race hatred and violence certainly resulted in "extraordinarily dangerous" outcomes for them over the last 250 years.

In any event, the Internet changed things. Before, it was very difficult to light the entire country on fire.

With the Internet, and social networks in particular, that has changed. The reach is unprecedented; it is a difference of kind, not just magnitude. Anyone can reach very specific groups of people and incite hatred and violence through targeted propaganda campaigns. There's more than one reason rhetoric and mass violence has increased since the late '90s (on a national scale), but I believe this is one of the biggest contributors.

Pick a point and draw a line in the sand. Then enforce it.

So many HN replies amount to "we all agree this is a problem, but we can't fix the entire problem perfectly, and it has some hypothetical drawbacks, so we shouldn't even try."

(Never mind that as a result of inaction in the face of disinformation and hate speech our societies are rotting from the inside, and many, many real-world atrocities are being carried out as a direct result.)

This is, by the way, a fundamentally conservative viewpoint. Cf. gun violence, homelessness, living wage, etc. Just because something is a complex issue with imperfect solutions doesn't mean we have permission to do nothing.

How about "doesn't scam you"? Gandi is widely respected. I've registered all of my domains there for over a decade.

I've never had this issue with Gandi.net. They are excellent.

Early on (nearly 20 years ago) it was possible to register a yyy.name by itself. For example, I own the domain for my last name.

What the fuck?

I did. Contrary a point above, I vendored dependencies in Go in 2012 the old school way: copy them into a vendor directory. It worked fine for end-user binaries, and you didn't have to worry about painfully long builds like you can get doing that with C++.

The Go authors have explicitly stated they don't do things until they figure out the right way to do them. No language gets it all right out of the gate, but Go got pretty close with e.g. its standard library.

Form editing is really poor in Preview.

No, I'm saying I searched online and found nothing to corroborate your statement.

Even if that were true (it is not, as far as I can tell), they would know that it will be tracked and could possibly be used against them later. Never make employees choose between a paycheck and following the law.

Detroit auto makers aim to reopen factories May 18

You mean if they have to wait until May 18, which is what was negotiated before Musk had a public tantrum?

It really doesn't take much at all to get blacklisted by Gmail or others. Companies like MailChimp have agreements in place with Google.

Unfortunately, mail delivery is far, far harder than it should be.

FAANG is about the worst preparation possible for starting a company. The skillsets are completely different, and in many ways diametrically opposed.

I'd suggest working for an early-stage startup before starting your own (e.g., 5-10 people). Or step down gradually. Work at a company with 50-100 people, then 5-10. Companies and roles are very different at different orders of magnitude.

If it takes a year to become a useful employee, something has gone horribly wrong.

Although I do agree that "work is work" and the search for self-actualization through work leads to a lot of unhappiness.

So, to be clear, your suggestion is—having no personal space, no quiet area, a constantly shifting work environment, for what is presumably a programming profession in a field dominated by introverts, and the poster stating this is a problem to the extent that escape seems a viable alternative—that the source of his or her stress is some unmentioned, unrelated personal problem.

Best way to interact with GraphQL that I've found.

The definition of rent seeking is creating nothing of value. They are producing original content. You can pay more to buy the DVD or Blu-ray if you want to own the content outright.

Yes, rent seeking by creating original content. A nefarious twist on the concept of rent seeking.

What are the mobile controls? Nothing works for me.

We're always at the beginning of the AI revolution.

Spoken as if many people have a true choice about whether or not to rent.

Oh my god. When Hacker News begins literally suggesting the Stacks from Ready Player One as a solution to anything it's time for me to close my browser.
