UPS I believe is self-insured (this if from many years ago a friend tried to get me to be a "seasonal helper" and I went to the orientation.) Meaning it comes out of the companies profits.

Basically UPS hires a lot of extra people to ride along with the drivers and deliver pacakges during the holiday season. The pay was decent for the work.
This is brilliant! We have one of these rusting in the basement at work, this gives me ideas. It would sure beat the dot-matrix printer I've been using to annoy my colleagues, but would definitely be harder to connect to wifi.
I was an unruly youth when I first was fed him.

In hindsight, I truly believe that not only were his theories several generations ahead of their time, but also likely a critical body of work regarding epistemology that would relate to developments in AI etc.
My social life has gotten much more active after 30. Depends on the situation, but I guess for most people you are right.
It doesn't matter if she was wrong[1]. Nobody should be prevented from expressing a wrong opinion unless it's harmful to coworkers, and intimidation by coworkers is never appropriate. For example, practically nobody would have endorsed veiled threats by coworkers against James Damore.

([1] - Arguably she was. In studies, women enjoy seeing pictures of women far more than men enjoy seeing pictures of men. In fact, some studies show that (even (some) straight) women prefer pictures of women to pictures of men.)
Also it is my understanding that /because/ it dispenses with the plutonium out right it's more benign until you turn it on. Which you would presumably do after the potential for RUD in atmosphere has diminished considerably.
Sobering, and almost physically painful to read. Probably the only realistic solution is the booming economy in India. Eventually, one hopes, there will be better accommodations for everyone, and the drivers will benefit along with everyone else. I assume unionization would not work due to the huge supply of alternate employees?
I came up with it too when I was in school. I was bored and staring at some tiles and noticed that for a square block of tiles with side = n, n^2 = sum(1...n) - sum(1...n-1).

The funny thing is that, since then, I've looked at that formula several times and can't for the life of me figure out I got from the above formula to the the sum of the range formula. I guess younger me was smarter than current me.
So this is just a rumor with anyonymous source reported by a single site?

This is a great point. "Principles" should be about taking a stand about the trade-offs between two desirable things. They can then be used to help guide you when these things come into conflict. Who is trying to make a product that is intolerant, burdensome, aloof, and inconsistent?

A framework I usually use is a "this over that", where both "this" and "that" represent things generally considered "good". The Agile Manifesto contains a brilliant example of this:

- Individuals and interactions over processes and tools

- Working software over comprehensive documentation

- Customer collaboration over contract negotiation

- Responding to change over following a plan

Notice how everything on the right is also a "good" thing, but the manifesto is making you CHOOSE.
I'm 53. Life didn't end for me at 35. Since then I've changed careers, raised two wonderful kids, launched a small but successful side business, and have greatly improved as a musician.
I don't eat at any type of fast food at all and I haven't for maybe 18 months now. If I am going someplace for dinner, I often bring some of my own food, at least a salad or my own dressing. Usually people are understanding about it once I tell them why, My friends already know so it is no big deal to them.

Thanks for mentioning that peanut oil might be in nuts. I eat nuts everyday. I will check the labels.

How were they not frustrated before? I can't be the only person (engineer or civilian) who finds iTunes to be among the worst applications Apple's produced, and it's been that way for years.

The question is rhetorical... what I'm hinting at is that it's a fool's errand to chase what other people think makes you successful.

I guess better questions are: why do you care if you're successful? How much success do you need?

If you download the files to your laptop, you'll still have those files to keep and transfer between your devices. I bought most of my music on iTunes, then copied it across to my Android device via a microSD card.

(Incidentally, I'm still looking for a good Android music player for my offline files. Google Play Music works, but it isn't very elegant & it's hard to browse when you have lots of artists. I guess I'm wondering what the modern day Android equivalent of Winamp is.)
I copied the same thing ready to paste — i agree with other comments that this is an enticement.

My only real complaint is (according to my experience) unless you happen to understand some mathematical concept/s involved in the question, it's incredibly difficult to get some insight or clue for how to go about solving it.

The forums are a fantastic resource once you already know how to solve the problem.

I'm more inclined to see it as trained behavior because this kind of thing varies by culture.

It's probably a combination of the culture and expectations around the individual rather than the individual themselves. Children are pretty often told they can be whoever they want to be by society, and so their bar is set pretty high. But when was the last time a 30 year received the message that they could be anybody they wanted to? People expect different things of older people, and the whole situation, with all of the narratives we use to define ourselves and others, is probably pretty self reinforcing. The attitude also likely shifts as you have a family and they grow up - again I think it's about what people expect. No studies to cite here, but just throwing out some ideas.
>I'm always at wonder at how Americans try to find racism/oppression in every situation

I think what you read here on HN is not a representative sample of Americans.
Yup, pretty much same mechanics.

The netcode in subspace was a bit better, probably due to needing to deal with 200ms+ pings that were common back in that era.
It's back up there now, thankfully.
The US has some of the highest economic development in the world, but it also has some of the highest poverty in the developed world. I don't see any correlation between economic development and lack of poverty once a country has raised itself out of developing status.

WOW -- where did my last hour go!
I'm biased, but I have to say that as a gay male there seems to be much less rigidity around having to do something by a certain age. I'm guessing a large part of that is the fact that there's not really any societal expectations around marriage/having kids/settling down, which also plays a big part in the fact that your social life doesn't necessarily die down in your 30s and, in fact, you see many older gay men in their 40s, 50s+ in the same social circles or parties/events you might attend in your 20s or 30s.

It's actually incredibly freeing and makes me appreciate being gay even more the older I get (though still in my 20s)
Thank you for keeping an open mind. I don't think people will mind static ads but it shouldn't be a priority. Once you have enough eyeballs, I think you'll be saying no to the ad offers. I think of ads as fairweather friends. If you don't have visitors, they don't even need to kick you out. You'll get a $0.00 payout every month. So, I agree with you. Avoid ads for now. I think a static ad that's basically a tracked link to a sponsor isn't a bad idea and if there's no jacascript involved and it is just a link, I doubt there will be any backlash.

I think someone like linode or digital ocean or heroku would be a good fit as an advertiser? I don't know how these things work. I do know that the money won't be free.

You can't please everyone. I'd say when in doubt, listen to your contributors and donors.

Thoughts?
I've defined who I truly want to be around in my 30's even if that means it's fewer people. Way more comforting than my 20's.
"Good" as in "extra expense and possibly lesser capabilities", I suppose.
The amount of time it would take is so vast that humanity would barely be recognizable to us before it would start becoming a problem. By then we could certainly edit our genes and preferences to be happy living under domes. Then we won't be bothered when the atmosphere is blown away by the solar wind.

Or something. I mean it's such a phenomenal timescale that it's almost pointless to speculate.

Not true. Infinite sums are not defined for series that don’t converge, and sum(1..n) does not converge as n => infinity.

Yes, you can play a nice trick with that sum if you ignore the fact that inf-inf is meaningless.
AWS DNS is all kinds of fucked. They have implemented a range of undocumented rate limits both to their own DNS server and to external (!) DNS, presumably to reduce amplification attacks. These things have hobbled our services many times, which rely on making thousands of DNS queries per second.

In 2007, this was not true for 5,309 people in the United States[0]. Considering 3,258,411 people were born in the United States in 1972[1], I think the question can be more accurately answered with:

Why does mechanical stuff suck? Because of friction of moving parts. Too much energy is lost to heat. For a thermal engine, if you can arrange to put the moving parts mostly on the hot side, that’s no longer loss.
You are correct, and in company of intelligent people. It's just that most of the HN crowd really really doesn't like being caught cheering on naked emperors.

> If machines produce everything we need, the outcome will depend on how things are distributed. Everyone can enjoy a life of luxurious leisure if the machine-produced wealth is shared, or most people can end up miserably poor if the machine-owners successfully lobby against wealth redistribution. So far, the trend seems to be toward the second option, with technology driving ever-increasing inequality.

-- Stephen Hawking

And I'll add this, in light of how the comments that have value regularly get greyed out, while the gimmicks get discussed endlessly:

> Of course, the terrible things I heard from the Nuremberg Trials, about the six million Jews and the people from other races who were killed, were facts that shocked me deeply. But I wasn't able to see the connection with my own past. I was satisfied that I wasn't personally to blame and that I hadn't known about those things. I wasn't aware of the extent. But one day I went past the memorial plaque which had been put up for Sophie Scholl in Franz Josef Strasse, and I saw that she was born the same year as me, and she was executed the same year I started working for Hitler. And at that moment I actually sensed that it was no excuse to be young, and that it would have been possible to find things out.

-- Traudl Junge

Any bright teenager can notice the rising inequality and extrapolate trends, and do quick thought experiments about throwing hi-tech into the mix. Any decent (and intellectually honest) adult would have to concede it when pointed out to them even if they didn't already see it themselves.

Continue to chose quality over quantity. Continue to "weep with the wise rather than laugh with fools". You may not be able to save the world, but you can prove with every breath what cowardly traitors to themselves and life so many people are, and that in contrast to them at least some people would deserve living in a better world. I salute you.
Some problems simply will never return the result if you brute force it. I've run a brute-force solver and written the elegant approach while I waited for a result that'd never come.

Most of the elegant solutions do exist in libraries out there, but the point is to pass down the underlying knowledge.

I don't think it's really fair to liken something like mathematics to the startup world, something that has all sorts of nondeterministic factors involved.
But the twenties themselves were much more comfortable than high school. And nothing will ever compare to the horrors of middle school. In that sense, of course life is easier because we don't care as much about other people's opinion anymore. As I learn that other people are just as clueless and full of it as I am, I am more confident even though I know I know nothing.
That's a neat visualisation.

n^2 = sum(1..n) - sum(1..n-1)
= 2sum(1..n-1) + n

=> n^2 - n = 2sum(1..n-1)
=> n(n-1) = 2*sum(1..n-1)
=> sum(1..n-1) = n(n-1)/2

And you can rewrite that as...
sum(1..n) = n(n+1)/2
Futures were initially invented for hedging: imagine you own 1000 BTC and for any reason (liquidating, etc.) you don't want to make any P&L (profit and loss) on these => you sell futures contracts for 1000 BTC. What you gain on one side you lose on the other, so your P&L will be 0 (minus fees, you can think of these as a sort of insurance).

This is useful for instance for a fund that needs to neutralize its positions while closing them over a span of several days/weeks. If you expect a future payment in BTC and don't want to expose yourself to the risk that Bitcoin will crash: you short the equivalent amount in futures.

Because futures contracts are (usually) much more liquid that actual assets, they are very useful to short whenever you have the actual asset in your books and don't want to expose yourself to the risk of it losing value.

Not sure if I'm explaining all this very clearly...

One difference IMHO between many young and old people is the willingness to invest in starting something new. I don't mean money, I mean spending years learning something, spinning your wheels facing an uncertain outcome, with little progress, income or status while you try to get traction, etc.

Many in their early 20s are willing to work crappy jobs, live cheaply, and accept the status of having not much to show while they try for their dream. Think of actors waiting tables, as a simple example. How many 35 year olds would do that?

I know it's not that simple: Older people often have obligations, such as children, which make such things more difficult. Also, many businesses are unaccustomed to and thus unwilling to hire older people to entry-level jobs. The (40-something?) intern played by Robert DeNiro was meant to be absurd, but when I saw the previews I thought: Why shouldn't 40 year olds start a new career the same way that 20 year olds do? I can't think of a good reason. And if not, how do they start a new career?

> Sex sells, and attractive females gain more attention than attractive males.

Has this been demonstrated for different kinds of products in different contexts, for buyers of both sexes? Seems like a surprisingly broad assumption, though I am aware it is widely believed.

I know it can sell toothpaste to men and women (e.g. "Close Up", though I don't know if that is still on the market). I know that sexy men and women sell fashion to men and women respectively.

I know sexy outfits for some pop stars work well (and not for others).

But do, say, pictures of bikinis sell speed boats to everyone, or just to straight men?

"Star Trek" used a female voice for the Enterprise's computer because it "had been shown that people paid more attention to the female voice". The "people" who paid more attention were male fighter pilots in the 1960s.

Well, I find this 'it gets better' to be everywhere but phyiscal; i'm begin 40s, my mind is clearer than ever before and I can pretty much do what I want and where I want. This seems to improve decade over decade. You start out bound and restricted and then free up over time.
I think lots of HN readers here are missing perspectives from Facebook users in 'third' world countries, where there aren't a lots of alternatives for information sharing and discovery.

As someone who grew up in one of those countries, I found Facebook incredibly useful to find alumni of my high school in US universities and ask them questions on how they got here (LinkedIn was not a thing then). There weren't, and still aren't, any alumni network or guidance counselor. I didn't even know where to begin (say to Google things).

This is, of course, just one use case but the point is that Facebook does provide value to some people. Back home, for many people of generation before the internet, it is the only way they stay in touch with their several kins on other countries. We can debate about what 'value' / 'meaning' it adds to their lives. But that is a separate conversation.

And yes, there are concerns about privacy. But that is the tradeoff you make in life.

It is possible to run Kubernetes on a single machine combining master and worker nodes but there are few instructions for it. Really only makes sense for single bare metal machine. For production, better to run separate VMs. The hosted Kubernetes, GKE and Azure, can run clusters without paying for master nodes and can have pretty small nodes.
If you mean Hardy and Wright's Introduction to the Theory of Numbers, I agree it is excellent, but you can solve the great majority of the project Euler problems without going to quite that level. I particularly enjoyed Daniel Shank's Solved and Unsolved Problems in Number Theory but even that goes beyond what is necessary.

Git commits are composed of all of the files in the commit, it’s parent and the commit message. This is an important guarantee that each checkout is valid without the rest of the repo. This allows you to have a lot of exotic implementations guarantee consistency between them. Meaning if your GitHub you can distribute commits across many servers. Or your Microsoft and you build partial checkouts for Gvfs. It’s what allows Git LFS to keep many of git’s core guarantees while making tradeoffs to improve areas where git is traditionally weak.
