I think it's about visual parsing. They may be greater in number in C derived languages but it's not idiomatic or considered clean by anyone to write it as you did, where it's typical to see things like )))))) in lisp.

If there were multiple markers stacked up in a C based language they'd be visually distinguished from one another ];} and you'd at least have a chance.

Look, we can get used to anything so clearly the lisp way can work. But it seems pretty straightforward to me why people think it's visually confusing and why lisp gets made fun of. Simplicity in syntax is great but lisp really overdid it. If you invented a human language that could get by with only 12 letters, I wouldn't give you kudos for that because of the general principle that simplicity is good...
What market, do people have contracts with Google that I am not aware of?

Oh right, no, and what they have in their website promises no expectation of doing what you need.
ASK HN: Search by SITE: for webpages based in a specific region
The basic premise; Is there a search engine that can search for sights based in a specific region? For example, If I would like search for all website in NYC that included the word rubber.

Google maps and Bing maps do some of this. Some of this appears to be polluted by the people advertising. I would like to do the equivalent of google by (site:) search and expand it for a specific geographic region. I realize it is probably messy to assign sites to a specific location, but some of this is already being done.

Some of the best developers I have worked with had CS degrees and some of them didn't. The ones that didn't were programming from when they were kids (like you say).

New computers are expensive. That is the reason people looking for used or refurbished computers. The term "USED" and "REFURBISHED" both stands for Used Computers. The first is Used..It is available as is..Means if it is working ..It is working

Refurbished is also a used computer but the difference is that it has been restored to its original condition. Means Proper testing has been done, remove or replace any faulty components, and testing done to ensure it is working fine properly and it will be more reliable.

You can find used computers in India with the following seller http://www.netgencomputers.in/used-desktop-computers

Well, one of the potential pitfalls with practical skills only is that you end up with a lot of skill-based workers without a strong understanding of what it is they're actually doing. Most Tech stuff is a healthy mixture of theory and practical skills, often changing on a day to day basis for any given tech job.

Dealing with clients who have little theoretical knowledge about the infrastructure they're maintaining is incredibly difficult as they just don't have the background to understand why there are performance issues, or why an error happens, and so on, simply because they weren't really trained to understand it, they were trained "You click this to do X, this to do Y". I am not suggesting everyone needs to be an expert in everything, but a lot of modern IT infrastructure teeters on the precipice of a complete disaster; they're the IT equivalent of "Knows enough to to damage" type users in an end-user setting, and the software is specifically set up to accommodate such users. This isn't necessarily bad; easy to use software for running mission critical software is great for everyone, but there are a lot of skills where you really need to know more than "Click this to do X" to be successful and tenable.

As an aside regarding your comment on leadership focus, people can handle multiple problems at once. It's a bit strange to write off someone else's problem as silliness just because it doesn't directly affect you.

I've recently got into 3D printing. I bought a printer from Amazon DE (directly from Amazon, shipped from Germany) that is known to cause fires (but can be fixed with a few simple mods). I doubt it would be allowed if it was made in Europe, but somehow Amazon have escaped regulation and sell these products cheaply made in China. I guess they pay taxes and customs so everyone is happy :-)

A stand alone static binary that does not depend on system libraries.

Specifically, one that 'just works' on windows, and doesn't require that you open powershell and need to change into an obscure directory to use it, or have the binary sit in a folder full of DLLs to run.

In fact, ideally one you don't have to even type anything in; for example, if you can just say; grab this one file from some safe known url (eg. github), and rename it from 'magic.exe' to 'zesty-fruit-324234.exe' and run it.

The Four Quadrants of a Dynamic and Self-Sufficient System
Yeah, actually it is. That despite the examples being seemingly somewhat contrived and the comparison also not so good.

Prefix notation is hard, at least for people whose native language is S-V-O, and not V-S-O.

So

i < x

reads naturally: "i is smaller than x". On the other hand:

< i x

reads unnaturally: "is smaller than i x". It's not a huge deal individually, but it does add up. And of course the extra level of parens is necessary(?) in LISP.

"if" is interesting, because it seems to do fine in prefix notation, and puts() is also a bit weird because its subject is missing/implied:

stdout puts:"hello".

But in general I find it more surprising that prefix-y notation is as acceptable as it is for most function calls, despite the fact that, when offered, infix notation is considered more "natural" or even more "built-in", than that applying it to even more situations is considered difficult.
Adding to what Xophmeister said, IPA isn't just a notation, it's also a tool of thought. First, to efficiently quantize the stream of sound you need mental "buckets" to put the sounds to, and IPA provides your those buckets. Second, it may seem as if we hear "objectively", but in fact what you hear is very much affected by your language upbringing; for example, a ton of Americans can't really differentiate "pin" and "pen" even if the words are pronounced as in Standard American — they don't have a concept of the sound needed. IPA gives you those concepts.

Snowboards are kinda similar with usually having a wooden core for tensile strength with plastic bottom for gliding, plastic top for protecting the wood and metal edges to cut into snow/ice.

Get a hole all the way to the wood (usually by hitting some rocks on the rather soft/porous plastic bottom) without keeping it dry and patching quickly will destroy the board very fast.

Also modern boards have multiple different kinds of wood in fancy layers/placements inside to give the correct amount of "pop" in the correct spots for the wanted ride. Some of the more expensive/extreme boards have started to replace parts of the wood core with carbon fiber in the cases where weight is very important and a very stiff board is preferred (mainly backcountry/split boards)

For foreigners, that's easy, that's how you write currencies in other languages.

Really cool site. I recently asked HN[1] why did the free alternative to PH die and found this postmortem thread[2].

I think it really boils down to making sure that people coming to your site find something new and creative all the time - to help turn lurkers or one-time visitors into repeat visitors. I think PH does that quite well with their podcasts, daily digests, twitter updates (though they are forced but they do work), etc. Also you're building a community site so if the traffic dies in a month keep at it, it looks sites like these take many years to gain that traction. Basically I think you have something really great going here, just make sure to focus on bringing the visitors back and you will definitely have a winner!

Hmm. The cost of buying lunch to me is 2% of before tax salary or 3% of after tax salary. Assuming a 45-year career, that's over 300 days. But of course making your own sandwiches isn't free for ingredients, nor time. You're trading time in your "youth" for time in your old age.

I do like the idea of going travelling, but you're not going to do it by cutting out lunch (unless it's something pricier like a proper sit-down lunch with waiters and drinks). Effectively you're moving your hedonism around so you can take it all in one go, rather than day-to-day.
Even if you value your time at $40/hr doesn't mean you're going to GAIN any income for the time spent prepping food. Since I don't get a paid lunch break, I prefer to eat at my desk and work through lunch. This way I can leave an hour or so earlier each day.

I figure I've been able to save an extra $25,000 since I started consistency bringing my lunch ten or so years ago.

First, I never said 'financial regulations.' Of course it's hard for the average person to buy cryptocurrencies, but it will become easier, and that doesn't mean there isn't a small subset of people that are currently going through the difficulty to acquire coins in dire situations, as the article I posted below shows. And it's absurd to suggest that current or past refugees are refugees because they're too poor to have savings. And whatever you think about them, it's easy to imagine future refugees could have savings, under the mattress or in a bank, that would be more transferable via cryptocurrencies which just requires memorizing a pre-private-key passphrase.

Secondly, the Euro/Eurozone is not a great comparison, because it is the antithesis of decentralization, predictability, and majority control. No Central Bank controls the interest rate of Bitcoin.

Next, currency is a means by which rules seek to control citizens, even in poorer countries. How can you dispute this? Whatever you think about the importance of physical cash, governments, like India, are already moving to limit its use, as I said, and some may go completely cashless.

Yes, Bitcoin is a public ledger of transactions, but the owner of an account is unknown from the ledger (i.e. public keys are not inherently tied to identity). When buying bitcoin peer-to-peer, which is what people in Venezuela are doing, there is no way to connect identity to a public key. Other cryptocurrencies (e.g., Monero) have made transactions themselves private via ring signatures (effectively, a set of private keys form a mathematical ring in such a way that a signature cannot from one of them cannot be distinguished) or other techniques. There's an enormous amount of innovation in applied cryptography because of cryptocurrencies and you should make an effort to google something before you claim that it cannot be solved via blockchains.

Finally, Bitcoin is more than just a technology in the same way the internet is more than just a network. It is a social and economic system, so it does solve more than just 'financial' problems.

Anecdotally, I've done exactly this using amphetamine, 1,3-DMBA and modafinil. The former mainly because I couldn't sleep (due to taking it for recreational reasons) and just decided keep going until the next night (not taking any more, of course!) to not screw up my sleeping pattern too badly. It definitely does have some interesting effects mentally, though using stimulants to induce it has its downsides due to screwing with chemicals and complex biological systems!

To a point, yes - but to a point, no. Candy doesn't fill me up like veggies, for example - yet I'm not packing in protein to try to keep me full either.

For me, part of the equation was finding out when I'm most hungry naturally. Eating a proper breakfast makes me more hungry later in the day. The same goes for eating a large lunch. So I tend to skip breakfast, have a small lunch - usually just a cheese sandwich, some fruit, or a piece of bread. Possibly have a small snack (fruit, nuts, chips), and then a large dinner. This also follows my own natural energy level - I'm a night owl. My mother is the opposite.
Personally I think we are missing "peer authority" in the Brooklyn grid. As long as we just electricity vs. money exchange is dealed with there is no real added value.

I like to read my code in plain english too but I tend to change how I make a sentence from code when dealing with prefix notation. Like instead of "is smaller than i x", I read that as "compare i and x". Of course that doesn't hold for all cases. I just find I have to change my thinking a bit when dealing with Lisp and OCaml and C, making the way I read my code change too.

And that’s why millions of chinese tourists every year are all across europe, buying everything they can get.

Especially affected by this are cities known for quality products, for example Solingen, the city where most of modern high quality knives and scissors are from, is overran by chinese tourists.
