Ask HN: Do you think we will see a rise in remote jobs now?

If so do you think we will then see a decrease in the amount of "bullshit" jobs or an increase in freelance culture?

Jim moves to a small village for a new job...

... And the village has no women - only men and animals.

Jim asks a villager, "There are no women? How do you live without sex?"

The villager points to a horse and says, "Oh, we just use that horse over there."

Jim, now absolutely revolted, walks away in disgust. He thinks to himself, "God! These barbarians are practicing bestiality! How terrible!"

However, after months of living in the village, the horse looks more and more attractive. One day, the man can't take it anymore and asks the head of the village if he can use the horse for sex. The leader agrees, and so he sends a team of volunteers, headed by Jim, to use the horse.

As they approach the horse, Jim takes off his pants and starts boinking this horse.

"What are you doing?" exclaimed the rest of the team, "We don't fuck the horse; we ride it to the next town over!"

Ask HN: Why is it good if media companies lower streaming quality?

How is this helpful if the quality of a stream is regulated by the speed of the internet in the spot where the client is? In my understanding, if the local network is busy it will ultimately result in lower speeds, therefore, a "degraded" stream quality.

Finding Jesus

A man is stumbling through the woods, totally drunk, when he comes upon a Preacher baptizing people in the river. He proceeds to walk into the water And subsequently bumps into the preacher.

The preacher turns around and is Almost overcome by the smell of booze. But, he still manages to ask the Drunk, "Are you ready to find Jesus?"

The drunk answers, "Yes,I am ."

So the preacher grabs him and dunks him in the water. He pulls him up and Asks the drunk, "Brother have you found Jesus?"

The drunk replies, "No, I haven't found Jesus."

The preacher, shocked at the answer, dunks him into the water again but for A little longer this time. He again pulls him out of the water and asks Again, "Have you found Jesus, my brother?"

The drunk again answers, "No, I haven't found Jesus."

By this time, the preacher is at his wits end so he dunks the drunk in the Water again --- but this time he holds him down for about 30 seconds.

When the drunk begins kicking his arms and legs, the preacher pulls him up. The preacher asked the drunk again, "For the love of God, have you found Jesus?"

The drunk wipes his eyes and catches his breath and says to the preacher, "Are you sure this is where he fell in ?"

Ask HN: Do you code review in English, or use native language?

What language do you use when doing code reviews and submitting internal issues when your entire team's native language is not English?

Me and the team I am currently leading all share the same first language, but we still do code reviews in English, for no reason other than this is how we've been doing it since the beginning of time. I feel like this is sometimes hurting collaboration, and was wondering if there's merit in switching to our native language.

What language do non-English HN users collaborate internally with their compatriots in GitHub/GitLab issues and PRs? I'm only asking because Google is being a pita by thinking I mean programming language.

A 7 yr old and a 4 yr old are in their bedroom...

The 7 yr old looks at his brother and says, "I think it's time we start swearing"

The brother nods in agreement.

"When we go downstairs, I'll be the first to swear and then you swear" says the 7 yr old.

The two brothers go downstairs and the mother asks what they want for breakfast.

"I'll have a bowl of cocoa puffs, bitch!"

The mother smacks the kid so hard that he flies out of his chair.

The mother asks the 4 yr old what he wants. Stunned, the 4 yr old says, "I don't know, but it won't be fucking cocoa puffs!"

Are there particular libraries or scraping-as-a-service UIs you would recommend?

I'm particularly interested in restaurant reviews website which has been an increasingly detestable company over the years.

 When I go to the movies

A girl and a boy go to Sunday school together

They sit on the same table next to each other. The girl falls asleep on the desk with her head on her arms.

Soon, the leader asks a question, “Who is our lord and savior?” The boy pulls a drawing pin from the display board and pokes the sleeping girl in the arm. She wakes up with a start and shouts “JESUS CHRIST!”.

\the leader congratulates her**

After a while, the leader asks another question, “Who created the universe?”. The boy does the same again and pokes the girl in the arm with a drawing pin. She immediately wakes up and yells “LORD GOD!”.

\the leader congratulates her again**

Before the session ends, the leader asks another question, ”What did Eve say to Adam after their 26th child?”. Nobody raises an arm so the boy pokes her again with the drawing pin. She wakes up with a yelp and screams at the boy, “I SWEAR IF YOU STICK THAT THING IN ME AGAIN I WILL BREAK IT IN HALF AND SHOVE IT UP YOUR ARSE!”

Chest Drain (Thoracostomy) Pump as Alternative to Ventilator?

I had a needle thoracostomy for a collapsed lung (pneumothorax) when a teenager. The operation took 5 minutes, was done in my hospital room as I watched and was almost painless (OK the initial anesthetic hurt a bit). They slid a metal needle between the ribs into the pleural cavity. It was attached to a hose and a small pump (looked like an aquarium pump) that provided negative pressure. I spent 3 days in the hospital. Use and removal was painless: they slid the needle out and put a bandaid on it.

Rather than build complex, cumbersome and expensive to run ventilators for Covid patients, why not use the far simpler chest drain instead?
