tl;dr: whatabout "statements issued by Apple, Nike and Coca-Cola among others that no signs of "forced labor" have been found."

Those are indeed failings of western companies and governments. Those failings do not justify ignoring CCP actions toward Uyghurs

The trouble is that in the real world people who criticize Israel and not antisemitic are vanishingly rare.

Where is your evidence for this?

By evidence, I mean

  1) empirical, not anecdotal
  2) from a non-partisan source

By this logic, one can't be anti-CCP without being anti-chinese.

As a happy user of both PHP (for web dev) and Python (for just about everything else), this is a pretty shitty article

@emptybottle - I don't know why this is happening, but it is:

"Warning: Potential Security Risk Ahead

Firefox detected a potential security threat and did not continue to doc.tidalcycles.org. If you visit this site, attackers could try to steal information like your passwords, emails, or credit card details.

What can you do about it?

The issue is most likely with the website, and there is nothing you can do to resolve it. You can notify the website’s administrator about the problem."

I did indeed miss the examples.

(Another UX nudge... the logic tool uses a folder icon to get to the examples, while th graph tool uses an "Open" button)

Thanks for sharing these!

IMO, they'd be much more helpful/accessible with some default examples. For example, the graph algorithm and logic expression tools just drop you into a blank canvas.

This isn't a question. It's an argument disguised as a series of questions.

Nevertheless, the answer to the title's question is: we'll all be living in abject poverty while you're yelling "told you so"

A sign of the times it seems

Not even close.

People do immoral, unethical or illegal things if they see an advantage in doing so.

People have been doing such things since well before the onset of recorded history.

In some circles, it's even celebrated (Uber, AirB&B...)

Your first link is from TCU (tcu.edu), Texas Christian University. The entirety of TCU is opposed to birth control.

Your second link lists only St. Anthony Family Practice Residency Program as an affiliation.

I can't say one way or the other whether your assertions are valid. But your choice of sources warrants caution.

"Crickets" means that there was no response. It was so quiet that you could hear the crickets chirping.

Always means bad

There are direct answers to your question. I'm going to limit my reply to an indirect, but more important answer:

You don't have to be an asshole to be creative

edit: To be perfectly clear, I'm not accusing or disparaging the poster. I'm stating a general principle

But veiled implications of some kind of media or government conspiracy during an election year has a place on HN? Based on your 42 days of residence here?

Honest question - if you characterize this as baseless fearmongering, how would you characterize Jade Helm, the Bowling Green Massacre, Reconquista or whatever name applies to the terrorist immigrant onslaught that Trump ranted about incessantly during the 2018 election?

As of February 2021, millennials in the United States reported an average undesired weight gain of 41 pounds since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. This statistic illustrates the average undesired weight gain reported by adults in the United States since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic as of February 2021 by demographic.

$59/month for access to high quality data such as this is a no-brainer!

Every morning I woke up, reached for my phone, and checked the latest developments online.

Little to nothing in life should be treated as a dichotomy. In this case obsessing over global news vs complete avoidance are both poor choices.

Similarly, while global events may not always be directly actionable, in other cases they are. Ironically for the author, the initial onset of Covid was one of those cases.

Do you have any evidence (or even reason to believe) that the retractions were inappropriate?

Congrats on making and launching this. Both of those things are quite difficult.

As kind of an acid test, I searched for "Repo Man" (in Films). It doesn't seem to be included in your database. 21 other films were displayed instead, none of which seemed particularly relevant.

This isn't a complaint. This aligns with my interests, and I hope you succeed. But the back end needs more work.

The worst part is that both of these people were mispronouncing their own name.

Each ends with a hard "g", followed by a soft "g" (like Khashoggi is pronounced)

FWIW, I've never before heard of anyone allergic to figs - or to any fruit. So I suspect that it is a rare dysfunction. The unusual nature and the mild reaction make your situation non-obvious. The link to wasps (noted by others) adds an additional potential dimension.

I know one person that is allergic to chocolate, as well as to "Christmas trees" (don't know whether it's all pines or only some pines). Other than that, all the food allergy cases I know of fall into the common categories - dairy, poultry, shellfish, nuts/legumes...

Now that I think about it, I have to wonder if the "soapy" cilantro phenomenon is a mild allergy. But that's also correlated to the "supertaster" phenomenon.

Sensory phenomena are fascinatingly complex.

Allowing breaking out of blocks, you don’t need the continue keyword:

  'loop: loop 'block: {
    // continue
    break 'block;
    // break
    break 'loop;
  }

But forcing block labeling in order to avoid the necessity of continue statements seems like a wrong turn,

that closes up the throat

That sounds like an allergic reaction. Anaphylaxis ranges in severity from minor discomfort to life threatening. The reaction depends on the sensitivity of the person, the triggering substance, and the amount of the substance they came in contact with

A few months ago I first saw a DDG billboard.

Within the last week or two I first saw DDG ads on TV.

Within the last couple of days I saw a rumor about a DDG browser.

Lotta activity. Timing seems good.

How about a link that works for non-subscribers?

1) paywall 2) This is not a binary. Both are problems 3) It's a near certainty that the author has a narrow definition of which human traits are moral and which are not

fortan77: why would you post a link that most HNers can't read? It's one thing to do so for sites that can be circumvented via archive.is. This is not one of those sites

Thanks for the tip. Sometimes being days behind in reading HN posts is an advantage

Yeah, that's a problem.

FK JOIN was a casually tossed off addition that, in retrospect, I shouldn't have included.
