This is the reason I am not on any socials. It is purely promotional

This reminds me of when I added Snyk to our CI/CD and brought development to a standstill

great article. reminds me of the saying “9 women can’t make a baby in a month”

Now do the DMV

We don't need a "new theory of democracy" - we need to actually follow the Constitution we already have.

The author's concerns about majority rule leading to bad outcomes? That's exactly why the founders created a constitutional republic, not a pure democracy. They knew about mob rule and designed safeguards against it.

The Constitution already handles these problems:

Contradictory voting patterns: Federalism lets states make their own choices. If Kentucky votes against Medicaid expansion, that's their call - other states can do differently and we can all see what works.

Demagogues: Separation of powers stops any president from becoming a dictator. Congress controls spending, courts check unconstitutional acts, and the First Amendment protects counter-speech.

Protecting rights: The Bill of Rights and 14th Amendment protect individuals even when majorities disagree.

Rather than throwing out 250 years of constitutional law, maybe we should just enforce what we have? The framework works when we actually use it. The real problem isn't that democracy has "failed" - it's that we've stopped following our own rules.

If you use Tailscale why wouldn’t you just RDP?

I've been wearing vivobarefoot shoes and bedrock sandals exclusively after reading born to run about 10 years ago

He was actually injured by the flu vaccine. That’s why his voice sounds the way it does

Does this mean I shouldn’t wear the protective glasses when doing red light therapy?

Distracting background for reading. Reader mode activated

If it clearly outweighs the risks can you provide a study showing this? I can't seem to find any.

Shoutout to my favorite docker image that leverages fail2ban https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-swag

Who is the interest being paid to?

Don't use meta products. The end

Another elitist article telling us we are happy with lower standards of living

The problem is that people are losing faith in our institutions

This reminds me of having to disable pihole for my wife because she is shopping and wants to click on the ads

This is great news for mice with Alzheimer’s

Another damage control article lol.

Can we get an example of gain-of-function research helping us in any way?

I have a theory about this. I think what we are witnessing is a GPT-4 conversation being switched over to GPT-3.5 I've seen it mentioned somewhere that due to server load the model could be switched on you. I have had similar experiences. When this happens I start a new conversation and upload the full contents of my code or previous conversation.

I don't see this taking off until there is a killer app that sells these things

Same for American news

Isn't life expectancy going down in the United States?

why is this worthy of being on the front page of hacker news?

A big productivity booster for me was using /etc/hosts to block distracting websites. Like Hacker News haha

I prefer to use SWAG. Docker + NGINX + LetsEncrypt + fail2ban https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-swag

I like to use sed to replace names in books. For example I used the following command to create Josh's Adventures In Wonderland

curl https://www.gutenberg.org/files/11/11-0.txt | sed 's/Alice/Josh/g' > Joshs-adventures-in-wonderland.txt

There are endless possibilities of fun. I'm thinking about doing 1984 next.
