News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

Diversity!

I am looking for programmers who identify as a women, lesbian, black, mentally handicapped (preferably lobotomy), have panis, on chair with wheels (must be EV). Also they should not be in a coma (that makes communication very difficult). And am sucker for wooden leg and a parrot.

> some types of people are inherently a problem for the majority of the population

Dog owners? Getting a dog is 100% voluntary. Public defecation is all their choice. They can do it everywhere, if they get consent from all parties involved! Even licking and sniffing strangers crotch is ok, if it is consensual. Maybe even "suicide by pitbull" can be somehow voluntary.

But it is totally fine to call them out. Creepy losers who can only have relationship with beast, that runs away on very first opportunity!!!

Priviliges?

Mental illness is quite common. Imagine you could not label people as "creepy" or "invel", because they are most likely on some sort of spectrum. With mental illness they would be protected group. If it's personality trait, they are just creepy loosers.

No, I believe cancer from hair dyes was caused by touching dye during application. Poisons are volatile, dye is only toxic, while it is drying.

Tattoo pigment particles are quite inert.

System in UK is set against young people. Latest fad from government is they will serve as slaves for free in hospitals, wiping arses to elderly, to "teach them valuable life lesson and give them an opportunity".
I like fact checking (Community Notes) on twitter. I am not that much exposed to western culture, and it is good for explaining latest fads and memes from west.

Like why someone refused to provide definition of something somewhere. It provided commentary for clawn universe.

As pro russian, I am all for regulations and accountability.

Current social network of trust easily allows situation like "russian hackers stole our network, let's launch physical strike as a retaliation".

It is not 2000s anymore, and we need accountability, traceability, and paper trails.

Re:Raw milk sales spike despite CDC's warnings of risk on Saturday May 25, 2024 @11:49AM (#40475727)
And CDC has equipment and personnel. They should provide free anonymous testing, like with STDs. I want to know I am safe, without risking my pet cows life!
Drugs are illegal in most of Asia. Weed is popular in US.
Smoke weed, play games, no stress... Dream.

They could provide simple PCR tests to detect bird flu virus in milk. We produced trillions of those very recently. Those "warnings" are useless.

Dehumidifier in small closed space, like bathroom, Works great. Tumble dryers are horrible for clothes.
BS. Solar industry is already commoditized, most solar panels are produced in China, incoming trade wars, unclear expenses about panel disposal, incoming taxation on solar energy producers..
Re:How Should We Critique Research? on Wednesday May 22, 2024 @08:19AM (#40440062)
Also censorship. Opposite information are suppressed as unscientific, even through they are considered common knowledge. It is why it took 30 years for science to officially recognise asbestos and smoking as dangerous!
Greece in this case. But we had troubles even in Germany.
I live in society where people do not steal babies.

But my kid can not be left alone for dogs. She was already attacked 5 times. Plus dozens accidents, when I had to shield her with my own body!

And it is perfectly socially acceptable to mug children and steal their "candy" or any other type of food. "Dogs were just playing" is typical excuse, kid is left traumatised, scratched, and in hospital after such "play"!

Getting any sort of accountability or compensation, from dog owners is impossible. Even super basic stuff like vaccination proof. They just keep walking, like nothing happened!

Charging adds TONS of cost. For start most small city cars are simply charged from wall socket. 2KW are absolutely fine to charge such small cars. You are comparing cost of power cable, with building dedicated circuits and charging station!

Second is the deprecation cost on car battery! Cycles add up quickly!

You can buy EV for a few hundreds dollars (bike), cheapest Chinese cars are around $2k, European minis start at 10k EUR.

EVs are actually very cheap as basic city car, but you have to leave out extra features like long range, bidicharging, heating...

Zero emissions means much smaller car, not some monstrosity like 3 tons SUV ls for personal transport.

Well, West should stop dumping their garbage to the rest of the world.

It is easy to have strict environmental regulations, if they are not enforced, and negative externalities are exported.

Re:Paying Freelancers in Equity and Dividends on Monday May 20, 2024 @04:11PM (#40419724)
> Today, Gumroad pays hourly freelancers around the world $125-$200/hr.

Compliance with local laws is VERY difficult. I would not take this equity even for free. It triggers all sort of accounting laws, exceptions and so on. How should I estimate the price on my tax returns? What if I am on some sort of sanction list?

Cash is the king when it comes to freelancers.
