> The steel is protected from corrosion by the concrete itself

I guess that the steel is protected by something else because, as the pre-1970 builders ignored and as it dawned on everyone else 20 years ago, concrete is not waterproof.
That's the sensible approach. Addiction isn't optimal, but criminalizing addiction just compounds the problem.
Yep. I'd add that if it's a warning you're absolutely certain of, use the warning control pragmas to suppress them, and document why the warning's suppressed. Keep the compiler output clean so you can see where you need to examine.
I am atheist (born and raised). What do you mean by the Catholic heaven sending you into despair? I thought it was supposed to be a fun and happy place. Hell does sound scary as hell (pun intended) though and I'd rather stop existing than risk going there. For the record, a capricious god which allows hell to exist is incompatible with my definition of benevolent. That being said, if I believed the Catholic god truly existed, you can be sure I'd be following the bible to the letter (a tiny price to pay to avoid an eternity in hell).
I'm foreign and maybe I'm mixing stuff up here but I always thought that giving companies (like Google) the right to decide on whom to employ is percieved to be deeply republican.

This a16z article states that some options not returning to option pool is a bad thing, because option pool has to be extended faster than expected. As I read it, this means that some employees granted stock options are expected not to exercise, or in other words, option pools are overcommitted (more options are scheduled than expected to be excercised).

To my mind, this is a very dangerous mindset, driving actual option value even lower, because for every 100 options vested, only say 90 are expected to be exercised, meaning that upon liquidity event options are expected to be diluted to at least 90% of their value. Amount of options offered therefore must be discounted for this. Sadly a prospective employee has no idea what is the expected option pool commit ratio adding one more variable to the equation and tipping the scales towards hard cash compensation.

That's not really how the whole scene works. There's little upfront demand for such rigour, because the potential userbase for any given coin largely don't know to demand it. Instead, poor implementations fail and either get discarded or patched, and eventually, hopefully, whatever remains will be solid.

What I'm trying to say here is, the whole cryptocurrency field is much, much messier than you seem to expect.

At that point you might ask "so why are you using a blockchain at all", but you won't rack up billable consultant hours with that sort of thinking.

Ask HN: How Should I Discuss Work Expectations with New Employer
I started a new backend software development position a little over a month ago with a small startup (just two full-time devs and a few other random code contributors). During the interview process, I explicitly asked about work expectations and got a fairly typical answer (40-45 hrs. per week with a very rare "fire-fight" thrown in).

A month into the job, I notice the ambiguity of that statement more and more. The deadlines I've been given are insanely unrealistic, I've been writing code almost non-stop for almost 10 hours per day over the last week or so, and it's really starting to impact other aspects of my life. We're not really doing any kind of code review or reflection on the work that we do. I'm working on a project that is badly needed to ship, and we're currently not using any software development process around it, agile or otherwise. When I asked if we could implement more structure and discussion around these expectations, I was basically told we don't have time.

I like the company and the people, I find them quite easy to get along with. But I'm concerned about my workload and the seemingly endless pressure to deliver so soon into my time here.

How can I frame a conversation around these concerns in a positive light with my management, without sounding like I'm complaining?

I'm not necessarily saying you're saying you should feel guilt about this; the companies invent many ways to screw you up, so I'd say that a small amount of exploiting the very rules they set up is in order.

Invading North Korea in 2003 would have been an unimaginably bad mistake.

1. North Korean artillery could have done far more damage than 100,000 deaths in Seoul. It's said that one out of three rounds holds a chemical charge.

2. South Korea under the progressive Roh Moo-hyun gov't was firmly opposed. Socially, South Korea would be torn apart by pro and anti-US (war) sides.

3. What about China? At that time the PRC had just joined the WTO. Instead of coming close to the advanced world, Chinese nationalists would likely have gained the upper hand domestically, and a war with the US in North Korea would even be possible.

4. Who would control North Korea afterwards? This assumes that the US would be able to occupy North Korea long enough to create order. It would have then joined South Korea, though they would have been against the war from the start? The surviving voters, that's to say the original South Koreans, and the new North Korean citizens of the republic, might well elect a strongly anti-US gov't. Esp after the US unilaterally decided to launch a bloody war.

Be careful what you wish for...

If we're playing coulda shoulda woulda, it would have been better to keep and strengthen the Clinton nuclear agreement. The Bush Administration let it break down, and North Korea got nukes.

You can rightfully blame having state setting be part of your language. It is easier to program without state than with it, just like it's easier to juggle 2 balls than 3. Without state (or with the absolutely minimum of it) you can not make mistakes with it. Also, if your state-setting operator is super similar to your equality-checking operator, you can fall into this trap (like the devs in question did).

Programming without state is something that has helped me personally make my code much better. I produce less bugs by far since I stopped relying on state for so many things. A lot of micro-optimisations are not doable for me. In exchange I guess I get to run things in parallell very easily. But mostly, I get fewer bugs, which makes my life and the lives of my customers better.
Right. Shame on me, I forgot they may be a startup, not a normal business. Startups like doing things like that, because majority of their money is disconnected from their sales.

Your calculations are oversimplified. The real cost to a student should be around $20k.

Does the $30B per year not cover the funding for the UC medical centers, museums, athletic programs, etc.? The amount of money actually spent on students (through faculty salaries, financial aid, lab equipment, etc) is closer to $7B. Also you need to remove grad students from the calculation entirely, they disproportionately affect the numbers and they don't have out of state cap. Once you take all those factors into account you get ~$20k.
Scala: Smarten up your config by Refining your types
Aw I'm HN-famous! I'm sorry I didn't see this post sooner. I'd love to catch up for virtual coffee if you're interested - check your email.

I'm not sure if your tree structure is needed to efficiently transform N operations together. Another approach is to simply compose the operations together and transform by the composed operation set, using the property that with a proper tombstone-using text ot type it holds that IT(IT(x, A), B) == IT(x, A.B). (where IT=transform, `.`=compose). Mind you, this approach is still a bit slower than your solution. (I think you can make it O(N*(log N)^3) or something like that. But still faster than O(N^2).)

I don't think this is technically a CRDT - I think its still technically just OT, but OT that holds some additional properties. My favourite differentiating characteristic is that CRDTs bundle information from the document's history with the document snapshot itself. This lets you apply an operation with an older operational context. Obviously applying an old operation would be trivial with an OT system too if you had the history and could transform the operation - its just inefficient. So in a sense, {tp2-ot+document history} is a CRDT. Just, an inefficient one. As far as I can tell what you're proposing doesn't bundle the history - and you still need that history to transform.

It has some other really nice properties though, to the point that I had a pass implementing a p2p system using something like this a few years ago, using IT and ET functions. (My researcher friend Torben Weis independently discovered that method back in 2011 but didn't publish it). But the downside is that its slow. Your tree-based approach for operations themselves might be enough to make it viable. Very cool stuff!

Also: how can I trust it even if it supports encryption?
I've never liked Active Oberon, because it doesn't feel like a Wirthian language anymore. It tries to be simple by adding just one concept, the "object", but it's a huge and complicated concept that conflates data, algorithm, concurrency, and synchronization. It's much more complicated than anything else in the language and it duplicates parts of the record and procedure abstractions.

I think the designers of golang followed a more Wirthian approach with goroutines and channels, because those are orthogonal extensions to the rest of the language, and they each have a single well-defined purpose.

Base load in Germany is about 50GW, around 10GW of which is handled by wind and water. That leaves approximately 40GW to be handled by other means.

At 20MW per sphere, you need 2000 spheres to cover the entire base load. (Not sure where the article gets its 80 spheres number from, did I make a mistake? There's an order of magnitude difference..)

These spheres don't generate electricity, so you still need other (less constant) means of electricity generation. Germany generates solar electricity peaks of 50GW, so perhaps tripling that capacity could get them close.

Wind energy is around 20GW, but way much more constant, so tripling that could also get them close, and you could possibly do with a lot less spheres, perhaps closer to the 80 in that article.

So with a triple investment in green energy and the building of hundreds of these spheres, Germany might be able to make themselves a 100% renewable energy country. (Assuming my assumptions are close to reality)

Snapchat watches people in their most private, most intimate moments, who are unaware that all of their data passes through centralized servers. Why should states even bother with intrusive surveillance anymore, when people freely offer to surveil themselves?

If Snapchat disappeared tomorrow, people would just upload their nude photos elsewhere. Nothing of value would be lost, except for maybe the world's largest, most centralized pornography database, with fairly reliable correlation to real identities. That could never lead to abuse of power.
I don't. I used to eat about 900 calories worth of breakfast previously (two bananas, about 200g of oats, milk, cottage cheese, all in a blender). Now I just drink a coffee and stay fasted until about 1 PM which is when I have a high-protein lunch at work with some veggies.

>Factors to optimize for: - nutrition - cost - time to buy ingredients/how long they last - time to prepare breakfast/clean it - taste

This is easy.
Buy Whey protein (chocolate, vanilla or whichever taste you want. Around 7$ a pound is the price, can last for a really long time. Buy instant oatmeal, around 2$ a pound is the price. Mix protein with water or milk, add oats, enjoy a tasty breakfast with only one bowl to clean. You can adjust nutrients as per your needs/liking. Probably the best breakfast optimisation one can do.

Want a carb-free breakfast without much trouble? Crack a few eggs on a plate, put them in the microwave, come back 2 mins later.
Ah, the error was the other way around.

The idea that you form a value by creating an uninitialized one and then filling in its fields is dumb. (I suspect the field value wasn't even 0 as such but rather undefined, and the implementation happened to make it 0?). Better languages have you initialize the value directly and you can't access it until it's fully initialized. C/C++ are just really bad at expressing nontrivial values, even value literals.

(Discarding a value ought to be an error too, though that's more cumbersome to work with)
There is no need to feel guilt about this because companies do the exact opposite: they try to figure out the perfect breakpoint for €€€ per item per customer. Say your favorite pizza places does a few calculations and figures out that they can raise the price of their pizza by about €3 and actually make more money.. should they feel guilt?
GBPUSD: Eyes Further Weakness on Bear Pressure

> 1) What were the reasons for using cockroach db?

We chose cockroachdb for a few reasons.

(1) We wanted to make sure that Nakama uses a database engine which is easily interfaced with by other systems. SQL is well known and easily understood and the use of Postgres' wire protocol means there's lots of client libraries in all sorts of languages which game studios can use. This makes it easy for them to build out custom dashboards, visualization tools, and other business intelligence systems.

(2) We like the operational simplicity of cockroachdb a lot. The scale out model is simple to manage relative to other SQL database engines.

(3) The data consistency model fits with our balance between the datasets which will be replicated in-memory between the Nakama cluster and the datasets which must be strongly consistent within the cockroachdb cluster.

> 2) How do you plan to sustain economically with OSS approach? Is the project linked to some of your paid APIs?

The business model approach with open-source is to run a managed cloud for game studios who don't want to deploy and scale the infrastructure themselves. Lots of game studios don't want to run servers and handle all the scalability, uptime, backups, SSL, DDoS, and other complexity themselves. There's some studios mentioned on our homepage which we work closely with (and a bunch we can't mention).
