Its called been a perfectionist. Reality is its better to launch a sub par product and tweak than try to launch the next Facebook.

Its also better to understand that you don't run for fame or other people. You run for health... or find your own motivator.

Problem is we get ppl claiming to become famous/rich/successful over night with their awesome idea/plan... however this is Marketing, Ego-driven and often short lived (fad).

Ive realised building a long lasting brand/product is hard... and SLOW...but it can happen. Start something and keep adding to it. Same goesnfor weights, dieting or whatever. Start and keep on plodding.

Dont do anything firnthr benefit of others and dont compare yourself to others. Just try to make sure YOU are progressing vs your previous self. If you're bored then its not what you really bwant to do. When you find something you enjoy, you will persist.

Also depression and anxiety cause us to lose interest so go outside and walk every day... meditate. Take care of #1. The rest will come and fall into place

So just start doing stuff...

Would you please stop using HN for political/ideological battle? It's not what this site is for, and destroys what it is for—thoughtful discussion for the intellectually curious.

I didn't say you can't write useful software in C++. I said that C++ software is not, in general, memory safe. Sometimes the benefits of a particular piece of software (for example, having an excellent production-grade optimizer) outweigh its drawbacks (for example, not being memory-safe).

I don't think you'd find a single LLVM developer who would claim that LLVM is memory safe. Giving invalid IR to LLVM and not running the verifier frequently segfaults it, for example...
Is it a software company? I've never heard of such a thing as a unionized software company.
I am neither a UX nor hardware expert so that's all taken with what you called "optimism".

Key rotation doesn't need to be so complex if the afore mentioned hardware devices are built correctly.

Overall I hope security-absolutists like me can work with more socially in-touch people like you to build solutions that can become mainstream.
RTK is very limited in spatial range, you would need to place stations all over the place (would be great if telcom's base stations were doing that!).
Well I'm from Europe and I haven't. Where have you seen them more specifically? In Switzerland they don't make a lot of sense (good tasting water, but very calcium-heavy which these AFAIK don't help against). But e.g. in France and Italy I think it would make a lot of sense, the water there is AFAIK safe but tastes awful to me.
Which is largely the reason hotels cost as much as they do.

Why the downvotes?

It's clearly easier to make a compiler in a higher level language (Python is just an example, but Lisps are suited to this kind of thing). For example, text parsing is easier in Perl/Ruby/Python/Swift/etc. As someone who knows C++, more thought is required to do the same thing as in a higher level language, although it runs much faster. If you just wanted to bootstrap the compiler, then you'd choose the easiest route to that. It could also be easier to read and understand than a C++ compiler.

Great advice for clearing the distractions. Another technique to use is to set 15 minute timers. You can try and get something completed in that time (ie race the clock challenge), or just a "wake up" event to alert you that you've been staring at a poster for the last 10 mins.....

The trouble of Erectile disease has grow to be very not unusual in recent times. It reasons no longer due to a unmarried reason, there are various reasons at the back of ED difficulty. When you have ED problem, you are not capable of perform well in mattress. In this manner, you are not able to make your lady fulfill. She might not say this but she needs extra from you. A few ladies even leave their partners due to this, as they need to feel satisfied in mattress. This is the form of topic guys don’t want to talk about with all of us together with the consultant. However now you don’t have to talk approximately it to all and sundry… …due to the fact VCor Male Enhancement has released inside the marketplace to help you remove this hassle.

You make it sound as if it were bad back then? Was it on the Treo? Because I had the previous non smartphone Palms and there that was not an issue.

It was even an advantage IMHO. Apps were fast and good easily exchange data or even better you good use a better app than the standard app for a given data collection. You didn't have the walled data containers we have today.

Granted, with an internet capable device this opens up lots of security problems but I also feel that I was more productive with my handheld back then than I am now with my iPhone.
As other posters have mentioned above, the technology itself is not "invented" on the spot by the capitalist himself, the capitalist is not a magician who can make things show up out of thin air, the technology and the related improvements are put in place by the workers. You pay workers less they have less and less reasons to think about improving the technology owned by the capitalists. It's as simple as that.
Sounds good, mate :)

> If people were only buying it as a convenience, it would be a non-issue. But it is an issue.

You say this as if it were a fact, but no evidence has been provided to support this. This is a general issue with online communities, lowers the quality of discourse, and makes it hard to come to a consensus.

So... here's one reference I found [1]. The paper tries to correlate perceived quality of local water supply and consumption of bottled water. They found that 13.4% of users used bottled water as their primary source of water. The paper contains many other interesting data points for example:

"When all other conditions were exactly equal, a respondent who was one year older in age was about 2% less likely to use bottled water as the primary source of drinking water. From a gender standpoint, the odds that a female uses bottled water for primary drinking source are 1.32 times as much as the odds for a male, with all other conditions being equal. Education level was not a significant predictor for bottled water use."

Either bottle water use decreases with age, or bottle water use is more popular among the new generations, and can be expected to increase with time. It would be useful to have data about this.

However, using bottled water as your primary source of water is still somewhat niche. I'm not sure it's a good indicator of the decline of American society, as was suggested.

Also:

> More often than not, people buying that Nestle water live in places where the tap has better scores than where the water was bottled in the first place.

The data appears to show that the majority of people buying bottled water, do not do so as their primary source of water. And are perhaps more likely just engaged in casual consumption (or while traveling etc as suggested).

F35 procurement is made from something like 40+ states. This makes zero sense from an engineering/supply chain perspective (consider the fact that Toyota has the vast majority of its domestic supply chain within Aichi prefecture, up to 3 levels of sub-suppliers down).

Much of defense spending is a jobs program that is brought home by congressmen to their home states. (and when it's a jobs program, supply of prospective employees outpaces demand, and thus you likely won't have wage growth)

By the way, has anybody tried to crack P(Y) code using a kind of "rainbow table"? (I'm not advocating that ofc, just curious...) I mean, it gets it's security because the parameters to its generating function are not known. But the function repeats after about a week, and presumely can't be changed due to the large numbers of legacy devices in the field. So you could just record the whole signal for a week (I did a back of the envelope calculation some time ago and it would be about a TB IIRC). Then just build some kind of index, and after recording a few seconds, you can find your position in the code, and syncronize to it.

Also, I've been wondering, how effective the old scheme with a secret military and a public code was - certainly an old GPS reciever shows up sometimes at a military surplus store. I wouldn't be surprized if enemy nations bought one of those, and extracted the secret parameters from the now quite old chips using modern technology.
> I'd rather die than participate in mass murder.

There were relatively few perpetrators of mass murders, while the murdered people counted in millions. In other words - not all Germans "pulled levers of gas chambers", while most of for example Eastern European Jews got gassed (or shot).
As for the Dutch part. The Dutch daughter companies paid the bribes, which is illegal under Dutch law and this is a settlement with the Dutch Public Prosecutor. Uzbekistan should separately recover that money from the Karimov family.
fwiw most large companies get steep discounts at said major hotel chains.

Upon reflection, I’m actually a little concerned that you, the moderator, are calling my simple comment uncivil (and letting it remain flagged). This is exactly what I meant by abusing HN’s tools to silence dissenting opinions. I’m not calling the parent names, or swearing, or doing anything else that’s obviously uncivil. I’m just disagreeing with the parent. The only problem with my comment is that it’s very simple and doesn’t provide the reasoning to back up my claim that the parent doesn’t understand the product/market and is making assumptions (which isn’t an issue that warrants suppressing the comment). But mere disagreement is not uncivil behavior.
We ban accounts that comment like this, so would you please (re-)read https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and comment in the spirit of this site from now on? The idea goes like this: if you have a substantive point to make, make it thoughtfully; if you don't, please don't comment until you do.

DEET is a component of insect repellants. I've been advised by doctors to buy DEET based repellants when going to areas with possible mosquito borne diseases. In my experience it worked pretty well, possibly zero bites. Anything else is not as effective.

It seems logical and not surprising to associate powerful repellent effect to toxicity but maybe not to effects going down to the third generation. Is there any substitute proved to be not toxic?

There are measures like wearing light colored clothes, don't going out when dark and mosquito nets for windows or beds but they are not enough.

Very few individuals. I'm sure if these people formed some kind of group and bargained as a collective they could threaten to walk out if they didn't get any benefit.

But that's considered crazy talk in our industry.
The article is "Why Wages Aren't Growing," not "Why are wages lower across the board?"

I'd say make-work is why wages have only stagnated instead of catastrophically plummeting.
The very same St. Louis Fed no longer considers wage/salary data to be a reliable measure - employer healthcare costs per worker are now much more substantial and are growing at much faster rate. "Real compensation" is the preferred nomenclature to account for the total compensation package.

https://fred.stlouisfed.org/graph/?g=74dI and https://www.bloomberg.com/view/articles/2016-09-28/health-ca... for more context.

Remove the tax deductibility of employer healthcare plans and watch the wage/salary graph magically grow, as the funds get reallocated. Sure, the worker now must buy their own health insurance, which potentially leaves them with even less disposable income than before, but the gross wage/salary graph will go up and to the right.
I get what you're saying, but "productive hours a month" as a metric has to really be per-person, because hiring a new person should cause "reversion to the mean" in the productivity calculus, instead of magically increasing the total. Mythical Man Month logic dictates that a boss that is ~90% efficient at using their own time, that hires and delegates work to someone who is only 50% efficient, will end up getting less done (due to the quadratic communication overhead) than they would have with no subordinates.

The best "productivity hacks", given communication overhead is a thing, aren't those that increase the total number of people trying to be productive, but rather those that increase each individual employee's productivity in a reliable way—such that they can be applied successfully by a large portion of the organization, rather than just to one hypomanic dude.

> Two years ago I could spend a week not working because I was avoiding some task.

This is a great article and there’s plenty to talk about in organizational systems, even if this seems to be subtly pitching his own products in places. But if anyone reading this identifies with this sort of chronic procrastination, consider seeking psychiatric help. This is a giant red flag for adult ADHD, which is a serious and often misunderstood issue, and one of the few psychiatric diagnoses for which there is solid treatments (stimulants) with near universal efficacy and very few side effects. Getting on Adderall, then Vyvanse changed my life for the better, and basically solved this issue overnight, as well as a bunch of other benefits.
I wouldn't say that it is impossible. The tendency is though to double or triple count negative things. Chinese economy has lots of inefficiencies. Very true. That is reflected in the low per capita income. People could live a higher standard of living given the amount of effort they put in if the system were more efficient. People's lives are a lot less free. Capital control for example. Bitcoin was okay and then it is not. Inefficiencies in the economy can brake contagions though. What is negative in one aspect can be a saving grace in another. Check out how coal price behaved. The party wanted to shut down capacity and they did. Even as coal demand dropped the price shot back up. Difference between coal and oil? Coal is much more local while oil is international.

When folks complain about the "borrow checker" usually they're complaining about a superset of features including move semantics and how data works in Rust. This is far more deeply tied into the whole model of Rust and is frankly very core to the language, "turning it off" won't make it easier to learn, it will make it easier to learn a completely different language.

Besides, all of this is necessary for soundness. Turning off the borrow checker won't magically get you a compiler that is less permissive, it will get you a compiler that will very likely produce nonsense if your program would have failed the borrow checker had it been present.
