I think the social stuff has become less rigid for everyone as society has progressed. I’m gay and in my 30s, but I know plenty of straight people my age who also aren’t doing the married-with-2.5-children thing, either. You mileage may vary depending on where you live, obviously.

So far, well, my 30s are better than my 20s, anyway.

> That is a preposterous way to compare poverty between countries.

Yes, it is. Using "national median income" as a metric totally ignores the fact that the cost of living is considerably less in Alabama than it is in, say, California.

How does using national median income factor in the difference in the cost of living between states?

I agree on Mohawk. Mohawk would be more worth it if score degraded a little more slowly. As it exists, Mohawk is a one-way ticket to the bottom of the scoreboard because it's so difficult to stay alive. (By the way, if you're reading and didn't realize, you can select any other ship any time. The buttons look disabled but they aren't.)

Prowler is awesome against the Goliath. So, so good. In fact, I'd say the Prowler is the Goliath's main counter, and when I lasted ~15min at #1 in a Goliath, it was a skilled Prowler that finally started annoying me, made me start missing my deflects, and knocked me off my balance. I was thinking the Goliath is unnecessarily OP, but the Prowler handles it. (Smart Prowler pilots: go stalk Goliaths.) Might OP the Prowler, but making it shoot a spread like the Tornado might turn the Prowler into basically an instant-backstab Rogue. Now that I've typed that, yeah, that'd be OP, don't do that.

This game is heavily influenced by Subspace/Continuum, and it's fairly obvious. I could even tell which ship mapped to which fighter in this, and I appreciated how well my skill transferred. My main annoyance was that score drop. I maintained about a 5:1 KD across 500 kills and regularly flopped from #1 to #25 to #2 to #30, because the score you lose on death is a little imbalanced. A few deaths in a row and you can lose 10-15 places, which seems a little rapid. Maybe knock a little off that multiplier on death, but leave the killer's score gain alone? The only way to stay near the top is not die, which makes sense since it's called a bounty, I suppose. Still rough.

Other random feedback to the author: Inferno needs a buff. That speed penalty hurts and is a pretty rapid way to die -- I noticed I was avoiding it as I played. Most of the power-ups and abilities could stand to last quite a bit longer, too. And spawners could really use a lockout on shooting for the same duration as their protective shield; you can spawn in, immediately press spacebar, and probably get a kill on a surprised person who happened to float through where you pop up with no chance to avoid.

Great game, though, I didn't expect to get sucked into a browser game for three hours. I'll be playing it again.

So, if your model is like YouTube and Reddit, it's fine. Just make it clear. They didn't collect donations like Patreon when they started.

Good points. What I meant to talk about was people who are looking to jump to full time; someone that age who wants to start a new career.

Ask HN: How to approach testing in Golang?
I am a bit lost when it comes to unit testing in Golang.

What are some things to make sure to test when unit testing Golang functions and what is a good strategy for mocking things out?

Yeah... There are too many desperate and unemployed people for unionization to make an impact. You can just get rid of the union employees. Given the poor educational investments lot of people are simply not equipped to exploit the opportunities in booming economy. This basically results in larger inequality since for high paying jobs there is lot of competition due to talent crunch driving wages up. At the same time for menial jobs there is too much labor leading to downward pressure on wages. Combine the two and you have ballooning inequality. My fear is that India might end up there.

AWS Engineer here. I haven't worked directly on Route 53 in a few years, but I wrote most of the DNS answering logic back when we built Route 53. Route 53 is a so-called "child centric" DNS server, in that it considers the child zone to be fully-authoritative for its own NS records. That's why the name servers for a parent zone reply with a referral, rather than in the answer, because from their perspective, they don't really "know" the answer. The proper thing a resolver should do is follow the referral and ask the child name servers.

I don't think that's in violation of what the DNS RFCs specify (though the older DNS RFCs are not great at being specific), and I remember making the decision based on what would work best, and be least likely to poison resolvers, in the event of domains being moved between customers, providers, or across accounts for some reason. Setting up the child name servers to say "have moved here ..." can speed those processes up.

I'm sure the Route 53 team will look at this and make whatever change is best, but I also strongly suspect that QNAME minimization may rest on under-specified or un-specified ideas about what authoritative name servers should do. I'd have it follow referrals if it doesn't already.

In any event, I think what's going in this case is more subtle but simpler, basically "ws.fdmg.org." isn't occluding "prod.ws.fdmg.org" when it should, but that takes a very convoluted edge-case set up involving two over-lapping delegations from the same parent zone.

I believe you're still missing the point. If you're going to create a business while controlling the underlying non-profit community, it creates a conflict of interest. You are misaligning your incentives. You stand to benefit if the non-profit website directly or indirectly drives users to your business. If "personal help/mentoring by experts" is the business, then the website is incentivized to put out confusing/contradicting content, so that users NEED expert help.

It's okay if you still want to take the same path. But it does feel like exploitation to me. I feel much better contributing to Firefox than to Chromium - for example.
Debian at least provides documentation on using Upstart, either alone or alongside Systemd: https://wiki.debian.org/Upstart

Point taken. While I also feel like delineating by regions in the US might be smart to some extent, the states are somewhat coupled to each other due to federal programs and such. But yeah, you're probably right about it not helping since states have widely varying cost of living.

Regardless, even if you do delineate by geography, excluding populations within a population is still "lipping your bad statistics to push up your mean.

Spectacular visual summaries for AWS cloud
These are good questions, and the 'experimenter' bias of the old theory (sexy women sell, sexy men don't) is evident: In this case, the conclusion was made by generations of mostly male newsrooms, run by almost all-male editors, looking at the photos taken by male photographers, of an event probably run by men, in a culture (sports) long dominated by men. This group shockingly concluded that attractive females would be more appealing.

It's a good example of why diverse groups are shown to produce better decisions. Some men might at times try to imagine what women prefer, and in male-run environments they might accommodate women when it's convenient and easy enough. Obviously, you will get different results if women speak for themselves, as normal, full participants, and if they have a seat at the table so that the implementation of their preferences isn't a matter of choice.
I didn't pick up on any "downhill" sentiment in the sama article you linked to.

Letting Spotify, rather than Apple themselves, cannibalize music download sales was stupid.

Also, it's the end of one of Apple's moats: your previous purchases. Spotify works on any device. I will say that Spotify is pretty shit on Android, but that's just laziness on their part. (Issues I've had, all on stock Nexus or HTC android phones: crashing. Muting google maps. Not pausing when disconnecting headphones. My laptop and phone fighting over who controls the playlist. Playlist corruption. Their Android team is, at best, C players. And lazy ones. Every time I get suckered into letting Spotify update there's a new bug.)

As with any Ponzi scheme, real people lost real money -- a proverbial "tax on the math-impaired".

As a musician in my mid 30s, I would say the most liberating thing was realizing that there’s a difference between being really good at an instrument and being a good musician. No amount of practicing your instrument will make you a good musician. For that, you must expand your sonic palette and write more. Go on Craigslist, get 3 used instruments that you have no idea how to play, bring them home and figure out how to make a song with them. That is how you continue to grow as a musician.

Your opinion is very clearly stated and easy to understand for a fluent English reader.

I agree, it's not very much of a dystopia unless you spend all your time on the web, and in places that are unpleasantly inundated with ads which you are clicking on when you would rather not.

For anyone else wondering why Pu-238 is dwindling, from the linked wikipedia:

“The United States stopped producing bulk Pu-238 with the closure of the Savannah River Site reactors in 1988.[12][13][14]

Since 1993, all of the Pu-238 used in American spacecraft has been purchased from Russia. In total, 16.5 kilograms (36 lb) has been purchased but Russia is no longer producing Pu-238 and their own supply is reportedly running low.[15][16]”

Interestinly, it looks like Canada (Ontario, Darlington) are starting set up operations to make some in the near future.

I don't think it's unreasonable to expect it. E.g. clang -O1 (https://godbolt.org/g/7qzSF9 ) is able to use the closed form for a sum on a simple C++ loop. It's not unreasonable that a language with deeper introspection could identify more closed forms. I agree that I don't think the Haskell maintainers would put this specific example in, but I wonder whether they could build it up from simpler primitives.

I stood up for a female colleague against inappropriate, aggressive and scary behavior from her manager. Nothing was done about it... our reporting the incident fell on deaf ears. Though not long after I reported it I started to be harassed and worse. I ultimately separated myself from that company because the harassment/bullying increased daily.

Though I'm facing hardships now yet I'm not sorry I did it because I want to work in a healthier work environment. Though it was a very well paying job, I REALLY enjoyed the work and I was often told how much many co-workers/stakeholders liked my work.
Do you take lessons? I think that finding a halfway-decent teacher is by far the best way to improve at playing an instrument. Take it from someone who has done a lot self-taught, occasionally taken lessons to great effect, and given lessons to people who progressed much more rapidly than I did, since I could quickly coach them through things it took years to learn on my own.

I agree completely. I'll add:

If you stand by while something bad happens, you are an accomplice. Your inaction communicates something important: This is ok; it's normal. Your normalize it, and human beings, social creatures that we are, are built to follow the crowd's norms. With a little courage, you can stop sexual harassment from being normalized and shift perception a little the other way.

But also, I think men have to be conscious of not objectifying women as damsels in distress, waiting for you to ride to their rescue. If possible, the person should speak for herself - you don't know her or what she wants. Just ask, 'is there something I can do?' or 'you're welcome to join us at our table' or 'I'll be a witness if you need one'.

Nope. Real adulthood starts around 35 though. Possibly a year or two earlier.

I've always thought the worst think about human lifespan is that, in modern times by the time you get educated and mentally/emotionally adjusted and enough time to really get proficient at a craft you only have like a decade or less before slowdown starts. Then you have the other half of your life being "old".

In more primitive times (most of the history of the species) I believe a person was basically a small adult at puberty. There wasn't much more to learn, there wasn't a great deal to "experiment" with, crafts and trades were simple enough to be picked up in a few years. You had kids early and generally died at not much more than 40 and that was that.

Although I'm opposed to immortality (until we get some other things worked out) it would be cool if we could stay in physical/mental prime for the same proportion of lifespan as we did in earlier days. Because adulthood begins so much later.
