You can be busy and still get workouts in. Buy a kettle bell, and a pull-up bar. Heck, you don't even need that. You can do bodyweight workouts easily as soon as you get out of bed in the morning.

The big secret (if there is one), is you have to make taking care of your body as much of a priority as your mind or anything else you do. Taking care of your body is also a long term endeavor, which so many people have a hard time seeing. Taking care of your body will likely allow you to contribute to OSS longer into your life than not.
People are making it Internet-wide, though. There's a chain reaction affect where upstream projects are contacting their dependents and forcing CoCs on them. Even if there weren't, the people who started the "movement" are aggressively pushing their views. No wonder they are facing resistance.

> The Portland Bureau of Transportation sent a questionnaire to 75,000 scooter users and received 4,500 responses.

At least there's no question of the obvious bias. Of course scooter riders are going to report that they use scooters more than cars. How would the survey results be different if they surveyed car users too?

Erm. That's the joke.

It's like using "literally" in an intentionally wrong way: "I'm not exaggerating, here. That traffic warden is literally Hitler".

Thanks for explaining.

My point about exaggeration was about describing racial profiling and corporate data collection as comparable injustices.

I think if you'd tell a victim of lifelong racial profiling that they're really just trading one injustice for another because now Amazon has a database of what you buy, they'd laugh. I'd say the two injustices are not even in the same league.

So on to a tip that gets me through airports.

I carry a simple piece of orange paper.

Years ago, I realized that when you're running late, airport staff can give you an orange "express connection" slip. I'm sure every airline is a bit different, but to be honest nobody has ever asked to see the orange paper. Just the fact that I have one means I get to cut through every line.

I act like I'm in a hurry, and act like someone has given me authority to skip lines to catch my flight. And I get bumped to the front of the line. Ahead of first-class people even. All I have to do is make eye contact with someone, show them a hint of orange paper... instantly I get waived to come through.

Been using this trick for years.

In that file I saw the line:

r.amazing();

But that function is defined as taking a Bool. What is this call supposed to do?

I’m also curious how you plan to implement match type. How would this work if you give it eg a char ? Will the compiler know what the type is and pick the right clause. I don’t really see a way to do it by inspecting the data at runtime so maybe the pointer would have to have runtime type information attached to it, but you would then need to transform that info when dereferencing the pointer as this info can’t live in memory next to the pointed-at objects if you want C compatibility.

I also can’t really tell what match type is for from your example. Are you intending to have inheritance and then using match type as a kind of ad-hoc polymorphism (eg is my Animal a Dog or is it a Cat?), or some sort of weird template-like thing, or something else entirely?

If you allow subtyping then does “func(Dog->Int)” successfully match something of type “func(Animal->Int)”?

I love DLs, but you need to learn to do them properly. You can herniate a disc brushing your teeth.

What DLs do as a side effect is teach people how to pick up things properly. Most people are too tight in the their ankles, hips, and rest of their posterior chain so they are picking things up incorrectly all day long. This sets them up for injury. Learning to DL properly is a great way to teach how to properly pick thing up, and I agree it will likely help with most people's back pain. But, doing anything improperly can cause injury.

A practical benefit I see for meditation is being able to move through stressful situations faster. I still feel stress but I'm able to notice it faster and recover faster. The number of stressful situations per day is probably consistent, but I'm just spending less time recovering and processing them.

For me, practicing without a guided voice has been really helpful in this pursuit as it makes it easier to quickly meditate in or after a stressful moment without having to escape the situation.

GNU Make's got tons of features that aren't in POSIX Make (so does BSD Make).

I use GNU-specific Makefile features all the time - here's a list of some of the cool features:

- Built-in functions (see https://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/Functions.html for a list)
- User-supplied functions
- Much better pattern substitution
- Ways to tell Make that some files can be skipped in certain cases (.INTERMEDIATE and .SECONDARY modifiers)
- Ways to adjust Make's behavior (SECONDEXPANSION, DELETE_ON_ERROR, ONESHELL)

As a software packager, I'd advocate for autotools or CMake over a raw Makefile every time (assuming your project is a library or some binaries).

But with that said, I use GNU Make all the time for
"glue automation" - like if I had a folder full of files that needed some processing, I'd probably write a Makefile instead of a shell script. I also use top-level Makefiles on projects that have their own build systems, so that I don't need to remember how they work every time. People use shell scripts for that stuff too, but Make is better IMO.

Stephen Hawking would not have understood a single line of your code. The language of his and your profession are different and must be learned.

A lot of places don't have Costco or anything remotely close, and people do fine. Most European cities typically ban big box retailers within the city limits. For the occasional heavy stuff, I've been able to order groceries online for nearly 15 years.

Functioning public transit gives a lot of freedom to elderly people who cannot drive anymore. Much more than individual cars.

IMO society can solve cutting corners by bringing regulations and more competition, not less (more competition means service becomes a criteria when choosing).

In fact, I'd want those regulations regardless of uber/lyft/taxis. If individuals can lower road safety by cutting corners, that should be regulated, including lack of sleep.
PHP projects also get a lot of hate from people that have no idea about PHP, they just learned that some noobs wrote bad code with it, it is not a pretty or cool language but only bad developers would port existing project from PHP just because the language is not cool.
But I think 2000 introduced the "pro" licence/label, meaning it was aimed at business users. I can't recall there being a lot of "desktop pcs" or laptops with NT oem licenses, aimed at "business" users.

So it's probably correct that xp cut over and abandoned the win95 codebase - but I also think 2000 marked the start of that effort.

This is an update to the above comment.

TeXMe and MdMe (stripped down fork of TeXMe) now support Markdeep style of putting the content directly in the <body> element (i.e., without a <textarea> element) and then putting the <script> tag to load TeXMe/MdMe at the end of content.

But this method has the same caveats that Markdeep has, i.e., an HTML syntax error in the content can lead to broken rendering. Therefore, I recommend using TeXMe's original method of putting the content in textarea for more robust parsing and rendering.

For further details, please see:

* https://github.com/susam/texme#content-in-textarea (TexMe's original method of writing content in textarea that leads to robust parsing and rendering).

* https://github.com/susam/texme#content-in-body (The new method of writing content in body that makes the content look neat but has some caveats. See the "Caveats" subsection in this section for details.)

Well, the actual argument is "Some people can’t use bikes, therefore banning cars is dumb".

That is unfortunately not true. The framework with the best marketing will win.

That's why frameworks like angular and react are so popular. Both are designed to work well in large teams that work on huge codebases. Most of us probably would came along with much much simpler solutions.
Uber and Lyft definitely put more shitty drivers out on the road constantly cruising looking to pickup or drop off their riders in most not suitable places with 0 regards to traffic, especially in NYC and suburbs. Uber and Lyft pays so little that most of their drivers are definitely not qualified to drive professionally but are doing it because they can't get any other job.
I forgot to mention that these drivers work for multiple ride-sharing companies (at least 2 but sometimes up to 4 in NYC) and have multiple smartphones docked to their dashboard constantly distracting them.
Very cool video! Thanks for the link!
Interesting. Are these bigger city hospitals? I've visited people in several hospitals and you just walk in. Unless you actually go up to a counter to ask for help, you're free to roam. Sure, some areas are off limits. You can't go into the ER patient area without someone opening the door, and I'm sure the surgery section is off limits. But you can walk to a patient's room, the maternity ward, the cafeteria, etc. In fact, our local hospital has a pretty decent cafeteria. It's nothing fancy, but it's relatively cheap (cash only) and decent food. There are definitely people that just go there for lunch.
I think GP was playing on the assumption that those employed in these traditionally low-paid jobs such as security and maintenance would predominantly be black.

I live in Raleigh too and work downtown.

When walking on the sidewalks I've almost been run over by scooters about 8 times and been hit twice by jackets flying behind and to the side of the rider. I was okay but it did hurt.

All of my coworkers hate the things and some of them are ready to ban them.

For the first 2 months everyone I saw on a scooter was riding them on sidewalks. It seems to have gotten better in the last 2 months with scooter riders in the roads.
Just to give you all an additional data point, I am based in Europe. I do have business contacts and give out my number freely (on resumes, etc.) I think I've gotten 1 robot call in the past 5 years (my thought was - I knew this would happen sooner or later! I know it's a huge problem! But it didn't happen again.)

I use this phone every day and it's always on. So: if you don't want robot calls, get an international number in Europe.

People who need to contact you can pay the international surcharge.

From a quick look through remoteStorage, it looks to me like it's is focused on storage (and so appropriately named!), while Edsu is more explicitly a foundation for applications.

One place this shows up is that Edsu has a permissions model where other people can read and interact with what you've stored (within very tightly defined parameters), which is the basis for writing multi-user apps like, say, a distributed Reddit or Slack.

They both have the same model regarding the ownership of data though. The biggest difference there is that Edsu uses a Merkle tree as the storage, like IPFS and git, which has a lot of consequences in terms of how it gets used.
Anecdotally, as a cyclist, it sure feels like Uber drivers are trying to kill me!

Yeah, it's interesting. I wonder if it has something to do with sexual harassment training? I've definitely been "taught" that having pinups can be grounds for sexual harassment claims when working for a large grocery chain. At my current job, there's no training but it's understood that if you're making anybody uncomfortable at work, you're probably doing it wrong. I like that thinking better, but it relies on some empathy or at least shared values (maybe harder internationally?).
