This just sounds like an advertisement for a partial virus checker software, most virus checkers now have browser plugins that do something like this. Why this gets 120 upvotes here is not obvious to me.

That already exists in the form of minimum wage + an economy that isnt bad. Going to that extra step to say that government should provide the job itself is just an admittance of failure that the economy is so bad that there are no good jobs and the gov has failed to provide an environment for them to be created.

I find most tv shows targetted at children to be weird and bad for children, they show adults behaving in an infantized way. This subliminally teaches children that this kind of childish behavior is appropiate even as an adult. It shows that caring about whatever papa baba bear on his little adventure circus is still something you could concievably care about as an adult. You may think children dont make that connection but brains are specifically wired to understand what is and isnt okay to do and to mimick adults.

It's fine being careful but this argument devolves all too often into some kind of religious nature worship. We are the dominant species on this planet. Animals and plant life - nature - have to conform to our wishes. Not the other way around.

I assume it's some superifical point about robot AI being too advanced for humans to debug.

I dont know what to tell you, I'm using the simplest possible project here. It just doesnt seem to pick up anything other than the entry.re file. I initially only had the non-webpack default compilation set up, which does compile all .re files but has the problem that the modules dont get loaded / no idea which order should be loaded. So naturally I set up webpack but now it only watches the entry.re file for some reason. And saying that the output js corresponds 1-1 with reason is really not true at all, especially when compiled into one big module with webpack.

the bs-loader is definitely broken somehow, it only picks up the entry .re file and not any of the other files, I even tried the example from the bs-loader (which is still reason 2 btw)

Installation is broken with bs-platform, do this to fix it (assuming node is installed in /home/pc/node)

rm /home/pc/node/lib/node_modules/bs-platform/bin/refmt.exe

ln -s /home/pc/node/bin/refmt /home/pc/node/lib/node_modules/bs-platform/bin/refmt.exe

Is there no source map support? Also: I have to set up requirejs myself to make Reason code work in the browser? Not only that, it doesnt seem like the whole "each file is a module" system is actually codified in the output. I see no require calls that would indicate the right loading order for my generated .js files.

Generated code has weird comments in it like /* Facebook / and / Instagram */

Are you not setting this up as a website? I was really hoping that this would turn out as an announcement to be an aggregator of an aggregator. Personally I dont understand either why Apple news and 'Why is X down' links dont get banned, these are the most obvious offenders. I was just about to make a list of posts on the top page that I personally wouldnt allow on a serious hackernews site and I stopped because it would include almost every single link and at that point I feel like I'm just grandstanding. The number one rule that I would have for news that I dont want to read is that if this is some political decision, I dont want to hear it. Politics change all the time, it's messy, it's opinionated and frankly populated by stupid people with stupid commentators. Absolutely no value gets generated by reading some post about how solar power is now 20% more affordable in Florida or how France just banned Monsanto crop nr. 4 or how country X wants independence. These daily occurences will happen over the course of thousands of years, I dont care. You would have to keep reading and following that particular industry/country in a research-like capacity to be up to date at all. Other rules are of course any kind of 'do this to be a better programmer' post. Look I heard it all, I dont need to hear it for the next 30 years too, this is all too similar to politics and they are always blatantly opinion pieces instead of objective looks at the landscape.

Yes, I think the social factors are underestimated. I actually believe that most people by default would prefer to interact with a robot rather than with another human. Humans have different speeds, moods, knowledge and expertise. When you shop, you dont do it to have a social experience, you do it to get a very specific job done and in my opinion this makes humans a variable that is desireable to be removed.

500 million? Wow. Can't they just lay down a big pipe and decrease the water level that way? Seems to me like just about any solution would be cheaper than 500 million...

I dont know why anyone would buy this unless the pen drawing experience is a lot better than on the Surface Pro and Ipad Pro and you're primarily an artist. The Surface Pro has a real OS with Windows on it, I'm sure somebody will hack the Pixelbook to allow Linux but it will probably have a bunch of stuff removed and unsupported then. It makes zero sense to buy this locked down device for 1k as far as I'm concerned.

Last I looked, envoy is fantastically hard to build. Have fun downloading, building and installing all these yourself: https://envoyproxy.github.io/envoy/install/requirements.html

I could maybe believe this more if my iPhone stopped asking me to enable iCloud every time I turn it on, I'm pretty sure I never ever said yes to that thing.

You know what, I really like this. Even with a site like drudgereport which is kind of text-like, it still feels like it's screaming at you. This is how news should be to allow me to form my own opinions in my head. The presentation might be slightly better with a google like description text underneath, could be that I'm used to that though.

This entire ordeal has had many other hidden consequences, for me personally for example I've made the decision to never ever voice my political opinion ever again, whether offline or online. It is simply too dangerous, I do not consider my political opinions to be anywhere near as important as my livelihood or internet access. Take that as an overreaction if you want, but that's a real consequence that I've drawn for my life. I cannot risk accidentially running afoul somebody's idea of 'unacceptable opinion to hold'.
