Ok, then this text in the "general" channel settings is very confusing:

Anyone on Spectrum can join this channel, post threads and messages, and will be able to see other members. If you want to create private channels, get in touch.

Also, it would be helpful if i could tell at a glance which communities I was in were private vs public. I can't even tell from the communities setting page if I selected private or not on creation (I did, but i'd still like to see that noted)

Thanks, looking forward to seeing how this gets integrated

I requested this multiple times in surveys you presented me. Thank you for finally implementing it! I feel like my input was actually worth it!
> Better default for everything.

Software industry is huge and the requirements are dramatically different in different areas. What’s good default for a bash script is not necessarily a good default for OSX desktop app, or Linux web server.

When you’re working on native rich GUI, UTF16 is often better because majority of higher-level languages, libraries and frameworks use it, even on Linux (QT, Android). If you’ll pick something that’s not native, you’ll waste substantial time, both development and CPU, converting these strings back and forth for absolutely no value.

Sometimes you have to because you’re integrating different things together, e.g. UTF16 Android’s Java with UTF8 Android’s C++: http://banachowski.com/deprogramming/2012/02/working-around-... But quite often you are good just picking whatever’s the simplest option and not doing any of that.
Isn't the real cure to just not get a hangover to begin with? ;-)

Spent so many hours in ResEdit. So much fun.
Right, but still significantly easier than staying on an 800 calorie diet.
Right. You can have callee's parallelism be invisible - but only by adding it to your language (can't be done as a library) and making it be similarly invisibly parallel. And even that only works so long as everybody adopts the same system - goroutines don't play well with Ruby fibers, for example.

With the async/await model, you can immediately use it with any language that has callbacks, and then the languages can gradually add async/await on their own schedules.

I would dare say that the async/await model has proven far more successful in practice. It came to the table later than green threads etc (if you consider syntactic sugar a part of it - CPS itself was around for much longer, of course). And yet it was picked up surprisingly fast - and I think the way in which you can bolt it onto the existing language is precisely why. Conversely, every language and VM that has some form of green threads, seems to insist on doing their own that aren't compatible with anything else out there - and then you get insular ecosystems and FFI hell.

Maybe if some OS offered green threads as a primitive, it would have been different. But then again, Win32 has had fibers since mid-90s, and nobody picked that up.
Wonder where they were getting their non-prescription prescription drugs from. I guess any statin would do the trick here?
> housing crises all over the USA.

If they can really get the economics of scale going, this has broader implications for long term disaster relief, poverty (not extreme poverty unfortunately), refugees, and climate change migrations. Cheap, robust, and easy housing has long been a goal for architects. Bauhaus has it's roots in German communist housing for the masses, after-all.
Ibuprofin can be hard on the stomach lining and result in stomach bleeding and intestinal damage, especially when mixed with alcohol. Plus it can be hard on an empty stomach and plenty of people have trouble eating during a hangover due to nausea.

I take ibuprofen during a hangover now and then to help with the headaches, but it often just leaves me with an equally-bad painful stomach.
These are somewhat popular in India (1), my friend swears by it. Not sure if they work or it's just a placebo effect.

Will check it out, thanks. Had just been thinking whether there is any Go interpreter some time ago. I remember C having at least one, back in the day.

Agreed. And it should be more like IPython (command-line version) than like the stock Python shell.

Still, even without index funds, the first thing most people are told is that diversification is key and that sector allocation matters more than the specific companies you hold. Plus people want to mitigate risk, so they buy a little of each thing that matches whatever profile, and soon a sector essentially has unified ownership interests rather than competitive (and antagonistic) ownership interests.
Regarding "time spent" -- in a hustle like this, it's not really worth thinking in terms of "$X minus time at my standard hourly rate leaves $Y profit" but rather "$X divided by time spent is my hourly rate" so time spent is not to be deducted like shipping and expenses are. Assuming one individual pocketing everything with no separate for-profit entity.
Sure, but the numbers still fall in my favor. Of families with children in the household (where the mother is near the end of child-bearing age), about ~60% have 1 or 2, ~25% have 3, and the remaining ~15% have 4 or more.[1] Add in households with no children, and the "large family, need a 7-passenger vehicle" demographic gets quite small.

This is a simplistic view of what is going on. That complexity is not produced by 1e6 neurons alone. Rather it is a combination of a neural net embedded in a biochemical harness. The harness interacts not only with individual bee's systems, but also with environment and other bees (via pheromones, etc.)

I do agree with you that we still have much to learn in neural network design (or more generally distributed algorithms). For example distributed systems are notoriously bad at state machines (or sequencing in general). One of the ways biological systems handle sequencing is via multiple signaling layers with different time constants (e.g. pheromones vs neurons). On the other hand deep learning systems I am familiar with just throw more parameters at the problem, obviously this scales poorly with the sequence length.
I think that heap-allocating everything and using Rc<T> and Weak<T> would be a closer comparison to what Go does, than using idiomatic Rust with borrow-checked locals etc.
Not just patents, but all intellectual property. Copyright is arguably even more broken, lasting a century or more. It's ridiculous. My disdain for the DMCA is immeasurable, and the upcoming EU directive looks even worse.

Not only are these systems broken in their implementation, but there is little evidence that even in their most pure form they accomplished their supposed intention.
Yes it does. I'm not sure what you think the refresh operation is if not that.

I've run countless integration tests with ES and never seen something fail due to refresh not working as advertised. If you have, what version of ES was it? Can you give some sample code that sporadically exhibits the problem?

Not disagreeing but in Japan a lot of families handle this with Kei format cars like Daihatsu Tanto. The biggest family car I see in Japan is Toyota Alphard/Vellfire.
> I looked inside three UTF-7 encoders and found they don't follow the RFC at all on this. Instead, they encode the UTF-16 to modified base64 without any zero bit padding, and then remove any base64 = padding from the result.

That sounds like padding to a "character boundary" to me. I can't find anywhere that defines the term as being an entire block of 3/4.

It's common, though, to decode to an internal 16- or even 32-bit representation. Combined with clever UTF-8 decoding state machines the overhead is minimal, whether you do this all at once or in a streaming, segmented fashion. Rare is the circumstance where you can just load UTF-16 directly into an array and go to town without preprocessing. In most application scenarios you need to translate to a normalization form (i.e. NFC, NFD, etc), which you can simply combine with your UTF-8 decoding. Such tight loops of arithmetic code are blazingly fast, and performance can improve dramatically by batching these steps separately rather than intermixing different phases of text processing in your application.

Perl6 decodes to NFG form which provides a 1:1 mapping between characters and scalar values.[1] That makes Unicode string munging almost as easy as ASCII.[2] But it requires always preprocessing and intern'ing your strings.

[1] Multi-codepoint graphemes are dynamically assigned a unique internal codepoint.

[2] I say almost because some Unicode text rules, like those for word and paragraph breaks, can never be implemented as simple as in ASCII.
The analogy wasn't really about hot dogs and hamburgers, but about complementarity.

Assume that you have something that has a complementary relationship with something I have, but doesn't have a complementary relationship with anything you have. Assume that I'm in the same situation in relation to you. If we trade objects, we both benefit. Hot dog buns and hamburger buns are designed to be complements of certain respective forms of ground meats, hence the naming scheme.
I just want to second what you said. I started bodybuilding around 2000 and an old-school way to manage your insulin response is to separate your protein, fat and carbs into individual meals (and especially eat a high protein, high carb meal after working out).

That may have been a bit of a fad though. The single most important rule that I know of is to never mix an animal protein meal and sugar, because that creates triglycerides which harden your blood vessels. This single rule is why fast food is so bad. Cheeseburgers are fine, but add fries and a pop and you just blew it.

As I've gotten older, I've noticed that my need for carbs has diminished greatly. As a teenager, I frequently ate a bag of gummy worms and a 2 liter bottle of pop on weekends. That changed to a case of beer in college. Either of those sound untenable today though.

The single easiest bit of advice I could give someone to lose fat is to stop eating all white fluffies and all sugar. So eat peas, salads etc with each meal instead of corn/bread/potatoes. Then pump iron at least 3 times a week so your body is in a constant rebuilding mode.

You don't really need to watch your fat intake like they recommended 20 years ago either. Always opt for natural fats like avocado, peanut or almond butter and regular butter because you need those to rebuild your connective tissue.

The big secret that nobody ever tells young people is that bodybuilding is all about eating/exercising in ways that elevate your hormones, then strengthening your connective tissue. If you do those things, then muscle and endurance come automatically. If you don't do them, you'll always be emaciated and will eventually get injured.

ES is currently the main data store for zagat.com which ends up being a sink from a data pipeline and more or less being used as Key-Value store on the query side. It has worked OK for our current use case, but definitely came with some pain points. Primary key fetches were way too slow for what we needed especially with some in-memory joins happening and we ended up sticking a cache in front of ES to satisfy our performance reqs.

We had a tight deadline on implementation (3 months to extract from Google) and chose ES in order to satisfy a kv store as well as TF-IDF corpus search.

Your second and third paragraphs are incorrect.

Day traders flipping stocks every few seconds won't lose money because of HFT firms, they'll lose money because of trading fees. Trading every few seconds is a wildly unrealistic strategy for most people to pursue on their own. On an average, per-trade basis the fees associated with buying and selling are several orders of magnitude higher than the profit margins of any HFT strategy. The only way your fees will even come close to the profit margins of an HFT are if your volume is such that you've become a market maker yourself. This is a very basic and fundamental tension that precludes HFT from being a competitive force to other traders engaging in speculation and investing.

Your final paragraph strikes me as ideologically bent, particularly with your use of the word "leech." It's an uncontroversial fact that HFT firms facilitate market making. HFT firms do sit on shares and offer them for sale. Most often they do this quickly, but occasionally they have holding times with longer horizons. What's more important than the turnaround time is the low latency with which they execute orders. Definitionally, HFT is engaging in market making because when someone wants to purchase a share, an HFT is ready to sell it to them. Likewise when someone wants to sell a share, an HFT is ready to buy it from them. This is quite literally, "making a market."

In point of fact, your hypothetical day trader would not be capable of buying shares every few seconds if it weren't for HFT (inadvisable though it may be). How do you propose they'd achieve the same kind of liquidity otherwise? By calling a broker? There are far fewer market makers than there are active investors. Passive investing activity with index funds also dwarfs the scale of HFTs. The straightforward conclusion that follows is that fewer, faster parties must exist to make markets for the many, comparatively slower investors.

This is an extremely well-studied subject; when you peel back the pomp and PR about HFT as an industry, you'll encounter an incontrovertible reality. There is no way to service modern trading activity happening every second without the HFT activity that happens every microsecond. By calling that latter activity "leeching", you read more like someone delivering an opinion rather than a cogent, well-informed and substantive criticism.

"America has legitimate concerns about the national-security implications of being dependent on Chinese chips and vulnerable to Chinese hacking."

I've lately been having this fantasy, or day dream perhaps, where China or the US declares war on the other. The world cowers in fear at the impending catastrophic conflict, yet as the hours drag on, it becomes clear that nothing is happening. It turns out that the only net effect of the declaration of war is that 10 minutes later, every piece of military equipment either country has was bricked by the other's hackers and both militaries are now more-or-less sitting on their butts, twiddling their thumbs.

In which case the victory goes to Russia, I suppose.

This comment post is going to be pure speculation.

I think the numbers in this article are right. Over the past 75 years, relative poverty has grown at a dramatic pace. Sure, everyone's quality of life has improved across the board but relative poverty is the important metric.

In the past 15 years more and more of a household income is tied up in basic needs; bills and rent/mortgages are consuming higher percentages of net income, outpacing inflation. More of the real purchasing power is going into the pockets of a few. Most people in the US economy are being squeezed and we seem to be approaching a point where there isn't much left to squeeze.

Hypothetical: there exists a figure of relative poverty where many folk will stop playing the capitalist game and instead seek alternative ways of organizing an economy.

I speculate that we're approaching that relative poverty figure and that can possibly explain why many people want to socialize wealth. For example, many people I know with $50,000+ in student debt want other people to pay for it. How many other debts would people want to have others pay for? How many recurring expenses would people want others to subsidize?

I think the source of the problem seems to be lack of entrepreneurial activities compared to the past. With all the squeezing experienced there are some folks in the population that aren't taking a risk in starting a business that would otherwise. The amount of risk one has to take on is higher as well due to regulation and having to buy politicians. Increasing the amount of competition would be an ideal way of "redistributing" wealth.

10 years lmao.

Here's my full recipe: "megadose" of B-vitamins (4-5x RDA), 1g vitamin C, 400-800mg ibuprofen with 200-400ml of water and some carbs/sugar (I prefer a slice of bread). Highly recommended - 15 minutes of stretching/sit-ups/dumbbells/walk outside/anything to get your blood going. Optional - a coffee after 30-60 minutes.

Now, you can do it with only ibuprofen/paracetamol, but it won't remove all the hangover effects (it barely subdues the headaches for me).
How many times has someone sold their company? Probably not more than a handful. Even people who have n>0 are quite rare. So what does this say about how highly you should weight this person's experience?
