HN doesn't dislike Erlang. You only see unequivocal detestation for PHP and VB.

My guess would be PHP although there's a reasonable argument that most of the Fortune 500 runs on VB.
This article resonates with me on many levels. I went from below $10/hr to 5x that and never experienced anything in between. The struggle is huge, and I keep having to look inside myself to figure out what "my people" is supposed to mean.

A huge different that's obvious to me is the language we use. I often wonder why no one's mother didn't fill the these people's mouth with dawn liquid soap and slap the child silly, but then I realize that honesty wasn't a life or death situation for them. I'm often called brutally blunt, but really, I'm very tame compared to most people I grew up around.

As a real example, we often get articles on Hacker News that discusses the best way to hire, best way to land a job, best way to self-learn, and so on. It took me years to realize that these articles were all shaded in a heavy fog of bullshit, and it took me many years to realize that the posters who upvote and share these articles are not only aware of the heavy fog, but are able to read though the fog. If I was able to go back in time and tell my autodidact self on thing, it was to learn about bullshit, and it's something I always advise those who trying to self learn.

That all sounds so miserable. I think I'd rather stay middle class than deal with that stuff.

> - What and how you eat, although that one has relaxed a little bit over the last few years as street food has been gentrified and made trendier.

I'm so damn sick of all this stuff. It's like nobody can just make a normal dish without putting some insipid "twist" on it anymore.
I didn't actually try out the code, so I don't know whether it actually works regardless, but this looks really suspicious:

= note: expanding `rpn! { @ op [ 4 , 3 + 7 , 2 ] * }`
= note: to `rpn ! ( [ 3 + 7 * 4 , 2 ] )`

Is that not, like, operator precedence gone really wrong? Or is this the rust stringifier in trace_macros messing up without anything going wrong in the actual AST?
Was curious and googled it, Invisalign has some limitations (mentioned in "Not ideal for") like moving teeth vertically and rotating canines or premolars. So even aside from the price tag (which I assume used to be even higher) it wouldn't have worked for me.

Would've loved to do without the wires popping out and stabbing me in the mouth, it wasn't a favorite part of my childhood. So much orthodontia.

Would be great if you're doing it as an adult, I wonder how most kids would do with the "must wear 22 hours a day" part. If I could've taken my braces out I probably would have. OTOH I had a couple other removable mouth appliances and managed with those, so maybe it's just because braces are awful that I wanted to get rid of them.

Those sound like reasonable objections. Are you posting them to the discussions involved in shaping and ratifying the proposed standard?
Never order a burger at a restaurant.

I've noticed that waiters/waitresses seem to treat me worse if I order a beer where I could've ordered wine. Especially when the cuisine is French or centered around steak.
Fortran. 60+ years and still useful code used widely thanks to netlib and certain BLAS implementations.

Has many superb (proprietary) compilers and handles math like it is nobody business without having to drop into manual vectorization tricks like C and C++.

Given good variable naming convention it is quite readable too.
It is still being developed and enhanced as a language.
Ideally, it is true that COMPLETE information makes an economic system work better..... but the improvement isn't some sort of linear progression, where every bit of more information adds a bit more economic efficiency. Sometimes, getting more information without getting ALL the information actually hurts economic efficiency.

A very easy example of this is wikileaks and the elections in 2016. It appears that wikileaks received information about both the democrat and republican parties; however, they chose to only share the information they recieved about the democrats.

By your assertion, we should not be concerned about this; after all, the information that was leaked was true, and therefore added to our overall body of known information, we should have been in a better place to make an informed decision, right? More information is better!

However, this isn't the case; because the information was selectively released, we only got the information that benefited one side, meaning that our overall understanding of the state of things actually DECREASED as more information was released.

This is the same thing happening here; you know Allstate isn't going to be looking for social media information that HELPS your claim. They aren't going to say, "Well, we were going to deny your claim, but we found from your social media feed that you were clearly really hurt. We have decided to pay out instead!"

Basically, if the extra information you receive is being selectively given by someone who has an agenda, you can be mislead even if all the information is true.
I had a crown put in two years ago, and my periodontist and I were talking about how this would be the next step. He had already done detailed 3D modelling of my jaw, mouth, implant site, and had a 3D model from my existing teeth that were removed. Glad to see it actually happening!
USB x-ray detector. Think about that for a second -- a chip that can reliably send USB signals despite being bombarded with x-rays.
> No one is stopping you from renouncing your citizenship and leaving the country.

That's a page taken out of the fascist dictatorship's playbook. If your position was remotely defendable I'm sure that the best argument you could come up wouldn't be a variant of "if you don'agree with me then let me expell you from where you were born".
Does this require or allow confirmation from the driver? I would think that an easy two-person agreement would make this super fast... you should only need to involve a central party if the (would-be) driver and passenger don't agree on the refund. (I suppose this would only matter in cases where the driver was already identified and involved, but still).
Actually, far from all, most program UI is not so limited.

Learn from history. In the 1980s the world improved on the terminal paradigms, with TUIs that included things like directly addressable output buffers and unified and standardized keyboard/mouse input event streams. In parallel, GUIs took hold, and there are nowadays a lot of GUI programs in the world.

My dentist usually breaks out photoshop in my visits. He makes his crowns in-house right in front of me with 3D imagining tech he helped develop. One time he let me mess with it and that's when we found a bug in the undo feature...he had to start a 20 minute process over.

He breaks out so much new tech when I visit my friends and family think I'm crazy for going to him. I refer to him as my mad scientist.

Yes! My dentist back in the Netherlands had this technology in 2004 and both of my crowns were made that way. When I came to the US in 2011 and had to go through the ‘old way’ of getting a temp crown, sending mold off to lab, coming back 2 or 3 times over the course of a month I was genuinely amazed it hadn’t caught on here. I finally found a dentist in the Bay Area with new technology.
And the hack is found in #3. If you’re in the know but out of care, you’ve hacked the system.

Sure, but you were already outside the group because of your misuse of spoons. I have difficulty picking up the nuance of these small askance glances, so without asking, it's unlikely I'll ever pick up the shibboleth.

Personally, I've always thought the only way to win is to not play the game. High class values have never really appealed to me, although I guess feel the hierarchy/status issue as much as anyone else.
Once phones drop 3.5mm connectors is there any advantage left for wired headphones? Do phones other than the Pixel 1 come with a usb-c DAC? It looks like manufacturers could go either direction but it seems like Google and Apple have already picked a side here by removing them.

This. Especially coining of top out of sight-ers and bottom out of sight-ers
> It's also very easy and PC to venerate the poor out of some misguided sense of pity or moral absolutism.

No one genuinely aspires to be destitute. The poor are seen as noble in some aspects, but that's often a defense mechanism from the extreme wealth on the other site of the spectrum.

> I'm also not entirely, or even in the least bit, convinced that our society, institutions, social structures, and general well-being would be better off WITHOUT class distinctions.

I did not mean to imply that we should therefore demolish all class distinctions. But we certainly need introspection, and unfortunately rich perspectives are popularized by default (see film and social media examples cited earlier).

Just because classes are necessary does not mean our attitude towards classes is healthy.
I had invisialign for 2 years before switching to regular braces. Metal braces can generate much more force in more directions, which was necessary for completing my treatment (very stubborn teeth). They're dead simple and reliable. But my ortho is very advanced and helped it along as much as possible - I used this pulsing mouthpiece at night called AcceleDent which helped my teeth move quicker. We also talked about an option called Propel? which essentially made small bone perforations which encourage teeth movement.

My takeaway is that teeth are very stubborn and don't like to be moved quickly. And that once moved, they really want to go back to the way they were. There is a lot of new tech, but you've gotta find the right ortho. I shopped around until I found a forward-thinking one who was willing to try new things, and got spectacular results within a reasonable timeframe.
no idea about PoE on either board but if i/o is a concern you might want to take a look at the $25 rock64 with gbe and usb3 - i/o on my neo1 maxes out somewhere just below 20mb/s but my rock64 has no problem doing 80mb/s with some ancient spinny disks and some armbian devs have done ~200mb/s with ssds iirc

os support on the rock64 is not quite there yet however but given the features@pricepoint i expect it to catch up
The costs of healthcare in the US seem ridiculous to me, but the treatment given also seem better (given you can pay the exorbitant prices).

On a side note, over treatment seem a real threat.
I know you are. I didn't mean to take a jab at you. Rust is amazing for how young the language still is. I also don't have a CLion license, but I've also heard from multiple sources that that is right now the best IDE.

What do you mean by "Native Debug" extension for VSCode? The normal Rust plugin built on top of Racer often shows Racer as crashed, and doesn't underline errors while typing. It also doesn't really seem to know the type of a variable most of the time. I'm writing in too many languages at once. Autocompletion usually gives me enough of a hint that I remember what to type.

VSCode being my favorite editor, so I'm glad that I don't need to install another IDE right now.

EDIT: I just checked it out, and apparently you can install the Rust plugin with IntelliJ Community Edition. Which is free.
Kotlin will be huge once HelloWorld takes less then 8sec to compile
The reverse of this can be true too. Growing up, we weren't rich, but did better than most my friends families. Downplaying that your largish (4 kids) family flies across the country for a week plus vacation once a year and not talking about money or new stuff stuff becomes a thing then too. Partly that was probably me being overly sensitive, but group dynamics and expectations are tricky things, and this was only a mild difference.

Edit: I should note this was in northern California, where people generally do not vacation on the east coast because of both local attractions and a high cost of living that makes saving for vacations much harder to do. We happened to have some family in the Carolinas which was part of our reason.
The only way to become wealthy is to spend less than you make. The only way to stay wealthy is to spend less than you make (and have your investments outpace inflation). One of the best ways to do that is to not inflate your lifestyle, like starting to think you're too good for things like putting together your furniture from Ikea.
> and upper class people have nothing to prove to anyone.

Well, except for each other. And very much so.
> I remember being accused of using too many "five dollar words", being a nerd for spending time learning technology, being a loser for reading books!

The upper class looks down on nerds, especially technology nerds, just as much as if not more than the lower class does.

If we're stereotyping, intellectualism is largely a middle class phenomenon.
This is a helpful tool. I live in hope that one day the Linux community will realize that tools like this being helpful are a symptom of ridiculous design flaw in the system.
I'm in my mid 20s. I don't really know any of the ultra-wealthy, but I have some friends who are low execs in IB, Management Consulting, lawyers, have been to virtually every club in the city by now. How to dress when you enter a top club or SoHo House, who to go with, where to go on vacation with what friends to present an image of your wealth, "who did YOU go to the Hamptons with last weekend?" - people present an image to build a network - it's more complex than that, but everything the article is stating is true and may give you an idea.
Au contraire, just stop by JG Melon on Manhattan's Upper East Side, longtime favorite burger joint of wealthy prep school types (and Mike Bloomberg).
Sadly, the screenshots on that page seem to have been last updated when Windows XP was still current (which was 10+ years ago)

They're also not HiDPI/Retina, and the whole website design seems to be stuck in the mid-2000s, too. Somehow mobile and web developers got aboard all the new design and interaction trends, but Desktop GUI frameworks seem to be all stuck 10 years behind.

If I had to guess, I'd say it's probably because of a lack of capital investment in desktop software.

And yet a lot of people don't understand why everyone is using Electron for desktop apps these days.
Too late to edit, but thiefs do have skills, and these are d% and always fail on a 100, which is a 1% failure no matter how good. Also, I forgot how bad pickpocketing is; if the opponent has HD equal to your level you have less than a 20% chance of success throughout the intermediate levels.
