Perhaps Aldi stores in expensive parts of NYC ("It's not Amazon, it's the rent" in the last few days....) are dim and cramped like my midwestern mental image of a NYC bodega, but out here in the great wide open every Aldi I've been to is brightly lit, with wide aisles and shelving that's not stacked up to over my head. In a word, bright and roomy.

Aldi isn't a gourmet shop with dozens of varieties of truffle oil, but it doesn't pretend to be. Instead they have nice, bright, roomy stores that frankly I'd recommend as a first place to stop for anyone mobility impaired because everything is reachable (caveat: BYOScooter). It's entirely possible that some items they sell aren't up to the quality level of top-tier branded versions of the same thing, but they're decent quality at frequently excellent prices.
There was a time when people discovered a lot of text renderers break down with lots of stacked combining characters, and people were posting strings to HN that IIRC either drew a stack of accents all the way up and down the page, or crashed the browser.

Maybe that has something to do with the character range limits. Not all non-ASCII is forbidden, though: Français should work AFAIK, and I've seen Chinese and Japanese.

>At the moment I want nothing to do with it, but I think that's fueled by my burnout.

To put it into technological terms: if you want to solve a problem, you must first find out why it is there.

In your case: a burnout is not a problem and you cannot "solve" it. Burnout is a symptom, a warning sign by your subconsciousness. You need not to solve it, but rather find out why it occurs and solve this issue. This can be extremely difficult and please do not hesistate to seek professional help. It will be expensive, but worth it. Humans are no machine. If you are male, then please try to ignore society that tells you men must not be weak.

Just from reading your text it might very well be that you live a lie, meaning, that you do not really like your job but just the things that come with it, may it be wealth, status, recognition. If that is the case, quit. Do something that you always loved to do but discarded doing (maybe because you thought it was silly).

You can and you will recover from your burnout, but it will take time. Give yourself this time. You are a person, you are allowed to have feelings.

I wish you the best of luck! If you need anyone to talk, you can comment below and I will give you my email :)

I'd be very interested in any source material you have detailing these 'rumblings', both from the first hand experience of having been fingerprinted (which is oddly misrepresented in TV and movies) and from a general interest in forensic history.

As a child I recall an antique book on criminology which spoke glowingly of the reliability of fingerprints in investigations, and cited the unsuccessful defense of one convict who claimed (sometime in the late 19th century) that fingerprinting was a 'hazy and fallacious method imported from France, where many innocent men have been convicted by it." It is true that juries have an unfortunate tendency to believe in the first order results of any technical procedure, from ducking stools to DNA matching.

Was serious. Thanks for the response. My parents always kept separate bank accounts, always seemed to have clearly defined separations between who
owned what. Separate cars, separate car payments. Separate careers, separate everything. I always got the sense that my parents were two separate individuals in a partnership. I don't think either of them would have a problem signing a postnup solidifying that.
His list of mental models is great, but I suspect that most people (myself included) would get more out of using the list as a means of searching for books (textbooks in particular) that teach you about the list items incidentally as part of a greater framework of knowledge.

The only reason I even recognize many of those items as useful is because I encountered them in university courses.

Head and tail make more sense in ML because data gets the stream abstraction. The semantics of car/cdr make sense in the context of Von Neumann memory. It's no accident that car/cdr came from machine code...and that's what Lisp was mostly competing with.

> I challenge you to find an attorney that would advise her to sign any such post-nup.

On the other hand, not signing it is a clear sign that she is not supportive to keep her partner's business as free as possible from liabilities.
> Think of it this way: It is almost always strictly better to use O(N) sort algorithms instead of N^2 ones. That does not make it an error to use an N^2 one, just a bad choice.

The distinction between an "error" and a "bad choice" isn't all that interesting to me, and this approach more or less makes it meaningless to criticize the design of literally anything.

Maurice Herlihy and Jeanette Wing introduced linearizability back in 1990 [1]. It stipulates that the result of a concurrent execution of the system is equivalent to a result from a sequential execution where the order of the sequential execution respects the real-time order of operations in the concurrent execution.

In this context, you could probably use "linear" and "orderable" to mean the same thing. The idea is that, for any linearizable execution, there exists an equivalent total order of the operations. Because there exists a total order, if a client C1 sees A2 before B2 then a client C2 cannot see B2 before A2.

> A sometimes overlooked feature of car and cdr is composibility, e.g. caadr, cddr, etc. Though I don't think it is useful to go ten deep as the spec requires if people are reading the code, deep composition may make some sense for machine written code.

The 90% case here is "second", "third", etc. For more exotic cases, surely there are other naming conventions that would be more readable. You could use "h" and "t" for head and tail, or "l" and "r" for left and right...

> At the end of the work week, the major language design choice is not so much between car/cdr and first/rest it's between the language having a concept of first/rest and not having one: e.g. Python, Javscript, Go[?], C, and so on.

The "concept of first/rest" is just the concept of pairs, which are a special case of tuples, which Python and JS certainly have.
>But that is what marriage is. Everything in a relationship is jointly owned. People who think they can somehow skirt around this don't seem to understand that. Marriage is basically the legal recognition that two people are to be treated as one. They are a team. If people can't handle that, don't get married....

No this isn't what a marriage is, historically this isn't how it worked, and only for a very short time while there still was a very different trade between the partners where divorces became universally acceptable when this was practiced.

>It isn't "ones life work". It is "their lives work". Remember, they are a team.

They are partners, it doesn't mean that all of their personal achievements are a team effort, in fact the vast majority of their achievements would still be individual.

>But thanks to the marriage, what is his is also hers. By nature of them being treated like a single entity. Why shouldn't she get half of their share? That share has material value, therefore both partners are entitled to it.

Which is why you get a prenup It is no longer the case when the woman trades 1-2 decades of her life to raise 3 children and needs protection/assurance that she will not be thrown out when her societal value effectively has been reduced to zero with nothing.

My biggest disappointment in this whole ordeal is that this isn't a case of a woman getting succeeding an asking for a postnup tho with how divorces are still settled especially in no fault states she would be much more protected against predatory behaviour in that case.

What people seem to constantly ignore is that CA is a no fault state, she can just as well decide 5 years down the line that she much rather keep the house and 50% of the assets and start a new life because now she can afford to live on her own without any financial worries.

People yapping about that it's not fair to deny someone a full share of a work that they have not participated in, but have no problem with that person basically having a nuclear trigger that would allow them to walk out with 50% or more of the money as well as destroy their partners livelihood if they so desire at a whim.

I'm sure Apple made a complex assessment to determine 30% as 'optimal'. The problem here is the oversupply of apps and the undersupply of paying customers - Apple has a duty to it's shareholders to skim that market as much as possible.

While it might appear unfair for Apple to take such a large cut of 'your' money, Apple looks at this the other way around: you cost them quite a lot of the money their customers are willing to spend on apps.

I think by “determinism” you mean “predictable” because OCaml’s GC is also deterministic (see Core_Bench benchmarking blog post which shows how you actually need to account for this determinism when benchmarking).

You could make the claim that RC is more predictable by humans.
I think you just have to decide if that’s true for current and specific implementations of RC and tracing. I am not convinced it is an inherent property of RC - and that the same or greater levels of predictability cannot be achieved in hypothetical or even existing implementations of tracing. What if you only performed traces during times that the user was not interacting? If you can explicitly control that, couldn’t that be even more “predictable” than when releasing a final RC reference and hoping it doesn’t cause a cascading chain of destructors of hard-to-predict size?

I would rather argue that this should actually be a strong reason for her to trust him. If he meets another women, he can never be sure that she is not into him for the money. On the other hand for the existing wife he knows that she did not marry him for the money. This fact alone should give him a very strong incentive to trust the existing wife instead of any other woman that he now meets. So the wife knows that he has a strong disincentive to leave her.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bath_County_Pumped_Storage_Sta...

As far as I know, its used for "daily" fluctuations. Coal and Nuclear power plants in the region don't want to turn off at night: its more efficient for them to stay hot and keep the turbines going through the night (even when no power is being used).

So the Bath County Pumped Storage dam stores energy at night, and provides it in the day, covering a region that contains 13 States.

I don't know the response time of the system, but I'd expect it to be similar to the German system of "within minutes" or so.

No, just find a company that is into Software Craftsmanship and sign up for an apprenticeship. There are a lot out there although you might need to move to a major city if you're not in one yet (ie Chicago, New York, LA, London, etc). Just look for the meetups and the sponsoring companies and you can take it from there.

Difference from a bootcamp: you don't pay them, typically they pay you and provide benefits but it varies. Typically leads to a job offer if everything works out well. Discuss expectations going in and timeline.

>It's not necessarily a "correlation implies causation" fallacy when there is clear and detailed reasoning of how one thing causes the other.

If that reasoning is unproven, it's just as fallacious to assume that one thing is the result of the other. There are so many arguments that this doesn't work for that it's ridiculous. You can't just make something up and say it's the truth because it isn't illogical and you believe there's an inferred relationship between the two events.

Yes, the game market is often hard. But I find this author's attitude fatalistic and weird. (Also I agree that the numbers do not add up).

He seems to think that "rolling the dice" is the primary thing going on, and that he can't influence this substantially by any amount of development skill, proper tactics, and so forth.

I wonder if this kind of mindset is a side-effect of modern-day political correctness -- that if you succeed, it is 100% due to your good fortune (combined privilege and luck) and not because you did anything special to get there. The upside of such an attitude is that we recognize luck and recognize that people who failed did not necessarily fail through fault of their own. One major downside is that we feel a lack of agency, and this lack of agency is almost certain to drastically decrease the chances of future success.

Be careful what you believe, because it matters.

For my part, I think talent and skill and grit are huge factors in success, so if I want to succeed at something, I am able to formulate some kind of a plan. I don't feel that I am "just rolling the dice", even when luck is involved (which it is all the time, in everything).

It is not about a "random judge's ruling" - a proper court of law has very specific safeguards in place to ensure that both parties have a equal chance to make their voice heard and put their case forward.

Now, it's possible to argue that those safeguards do not always work perfectly but it's something I have far more confidence in than blog posts, which have none of those requirements.
I doubt the people in slums appreciate this type of pity. Slums have vibrant and complex economies, just at lower denominations. Basic necessities can be met in all sorts of ways but people born in rich countries have distorted notions of basic and can end up forcing "luxuries" upon people. Luxuries that cannot be afforded and so actually destroy economic activity and the ability to work and strive.

Americans are especially prone to this as the current generations are so far removed from the realities of the world. Economically it is impossible for everyone in the world to live like middle-class America but because of their compassion (guilt) when facing actual market conditions, react by trying to hide ignore or outlaw slum economies.

This is the road to hell being paved with good intentions. I am also prone to this as despite being incredibly welathy relative to the world as a bay area software engineer I still feel like something is "missing" and am striving for something. This desire, which drives my life, is disrupted when I see things like slums. The self-interested striving can only be justified is I am a striver than someone who has a certain responsibility to the world.

Smart people considering others "dumb" instead of the self smart also dodges this responsibility so that the individual can self-indulgent ly pursue interests rather than teach and not be appreciated.

I suspect culturally and biologically we renomalize so quickly so that there is always something better for tomorrow so that we have a reason to live for today.
