Vitamin D deficiency correlates strongly with time spent sitting around indoors. They control for physical activity, but not for time spent indoors as far as I can tell from the linked article. Separating time indoors from vitamin D levels would seem to be a tricky endeavor, so it's understandable that that's left uncontrolled.

A vitamin D-depression connection would make some sense. Given that humans largely evolved spending much more time outdoors than modern humans, deleterious effects of indoor life would not be surprising. +75% sounds like an extremely strong effect size deserving of some skepticism.

> You can reason about code even if you think that any program is a sequence of operations, but you can do it better, if your idea of program is wider than a "series of operations in a specific order".

Can you provide a concrete example of this? Otherwise it is just a hand wavy thing to say (which are way too many in programming world).

We don't call this a representative democracy. We're just not a democracy. Majority vote doesn't even determine the president. Even in the house and the Senate, bills have to pass BOTH in order to become law...and remember, Senators don't line up with population figures...they represent whole states. The definition of republic is 2000 years old. It's okay to use it.

Sure, at some point you will have to type. But the idea here is not that you never have to type, it's that most of the time, you can point. If anything, it's striking it's remained true for as long as it has.
And if you look at Apple hardware, it often says "Designed by Apple in California. Assembled in China".

I'd argue that the US got the better end of the value chain in this. Of course, it's possible for a company to outsource themselves out of business (cf Dell, which came quite close), but Apple does not seem to be on that trajectory.
It may already be already here, slowly gaining ground.

Javas optional type was directly inspired by scala and haskell. The concept is the same. However, because java doesn't have pattern matching as a feature internally it is implemented as a design pattern.

Haskell's implementation of "match" is so elegant that it will take you a while to realize that the "exhaustive" pattern matching is a big part of what is contributing to haskells safety.

Why We Sleep by Matthew Walker review – how more sleep can save your life
If a user imposes their own rules, to make their own game, that would be a "game", just a user-defined one.

Will this user-defined game need to have an objective (i.e. a win condition) to be a "game"?

Or, is just making up rules, without any direction, purpose, objective or "win-condition", enough to make it a "game"?

Living in a country with no such divide (Israel), articles like this one are alarming. Civil and military bonds run deep here, with a draft military producing graduates who end up in the tech sector and go back to reserve duty on occasion until they're in their 40's. As a result, lots of technologies that might seem incredibly new to the American military have been long since evaluated, tested, and implemented in the Israeli military, because of the cross-pollination that happens here.

Americans need to get their shit together.

Couple of corrections: IE6 actually fixed the box model (that was the difference between the new standards mode vs quirks mode that matched IE5), and IE on the Mac used a completely different rendering engine (Tasman instead of Trident).
I find animations generally overused, but the point in this article that really irks me is the one about animating call-to-action buttons. I know the button is there, it’s the biggest button on the page, but I want to read the content on the page before I take action, and making the button wiggle or pulse just distracts me and pisses me off. I’m not going to blindly and immediately click a call-to-action button before I know what it does!
Having match crash immediately helps you identify the branch error without explicitly writing a test case for it. It is equivalent to raising an exception.

I find it amazing that they visited the factory multiple times and didn't notice this. They never spoke to anyone/took a meeting with the owner who hadn't been paid? They never noticed anything unusual in the way they were treated as "broke/deadbeats"?

None of their drivers/guides/factory workers with high school english were able to tell them something was wrong? They never offered to take the owner out to lunch and discuss the issues?

They say day 1278 that's an over 3 year relationship, it boggles the mind they were no naive and dependent on one person.

"this does not happen in Japan"

What do you mean by "this"? Japan has restrictions on what can be done to historic buildings. Eg, https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2016/10/05/national/groups... has "Given its historic significance, however, the city refused to have the No. 1 Granary torn down, and in 2006 it was designated a historic structure, which protected it from developers who coveted the property, now a choice location in central Taipei" - for a building from 1944.
What I am saying, in the terms of your example, is there is no viable path for most janitors, even if they had all of the necessary intelligence and ambition, to become surgeons.

The typical path to surgeon might look something like this:

High school -> Pre-med -> Med school -> etc. -> surgeon

The path from janitor to surgeon might look like this:

High school -> Married -> Janitor -> Family -> Quit job to go back to school -> bankruptcy, divorce -> janitor

To return to the topic at hand, it's entirely fair for top executives (or surgeons, etc.) to be paid their value, but only if it's also possible for others to try to achieve the same value. Path dependence breaks fairness.
You can raise the error as soon as the match operator is executed. Even if match has a valid match with the expression, if all the branches aren't evaluated the function can still raise an error.

This allows for early catching of logic errors during unit testing and negates the need for additional tests.
Assessing the Long-Term Survivability of Electric Scooters
Use of disparaging terms is arguably caused by the need to belong to local community. That is, if you don't want to be outsider, you have to use "appropriate" language and show "correct" values (on climate change, abortion, etc).

So arguably it is more of a local, group identity effect, like being a fun of a local sports team, than a true bubble / filter effect.
Amazon already does ship-to-store with its massive network of Amazon lockers in everything from Whole Foods to gas stations. It has a much more massive ship-to-store than any regular retailer because it’s not locked into a particular brand.

I do wish Amazon would adopt ApplePay, too.
The US is (by Constitutional design) both a representative democracy and democratic, federal republic.

“Republic” alone is correct, but overly nonspecific; essentially any government that isn't a hereditary monarchy or similar system where government power isn't private and heritable is a republic.

> The definition of republic is 2000 years old.

Well, sure, there is a definition that old (older, actually), but the one you seem to be using (the colloquial American one referring specifically to a system of elected representatives) is much newer, peculiar to American non-technical usage, and equivalent to “democratic republic” and very close to “representative democracy” (differing only in that the latter can coexist with constitutional monarchy.)
One also could interpret WW2 in the Pacific to have been caused by the US forcing Japan to open up to foreign trade by sending Commodore Perry and his fleet. This ultimately resulted in the fall of the Tokugawa shogunate and lest to the nationalistic Meiji restoration.
After that some elements in Japanese politics tried to get respect from Western powers by making nice nice and imitating Western culture. That didn't bring the hoped respect and better trade deals though. Japan ended up learning from Western empirialism and got it's respect by showing some military might on its own.

Says "arguing definitions is rarely useful"; argues a definition usefully. :-)

FWIW I asked the question because I'm designing a simulation "game" without explicit win-conditions, but I'm concerned it won't be very engaging without them. e.g. Minecraft added monsters (to survive the night), and the enderverse.
I've used pattern matching languages quite a bit (in my case, it's OCaml), so I know what it's like. I'm just curious if there's any fundamental difference between pattern matching and polymorphism. From a cursory glance, it seems like they can statically prove the same properties about programs and are equivalent from that perspective.

If that's the case, then the conversation shifts from "you should use pattern matching" to "when should I use pattern matching?" Which is a pretty interesting question. Logic locality seems to be an obvious criteria (does the logic live with the type, or with the consumer of the type?).

Just tweeted this thread // this is a weird flex. Fun time to be a filmmaker rn.

2/ I've been a longtime reader of @stratechery, especially @benthompson's analysis of Netflix // can't recommend enough his posts on aggregation theory when thinking the future of media distribution, especially re: Netflix.

3/ So…it wasn’t new or surprising to read that Netflix is debt financing a larger slate than Universal, and competing for zero-sum prestige films courting top talent and mounting a massive award campaign to check off their first best picture nom on the strength of Alfonso Cuarón’s Roma.

4/ What felt new and “infrared” was the reach for Lew Wassermann’s lineage.

5/ “After graduating from the University of Arizona with a film degree…Mr. Stuber got a job at Universal in 1992 as a publicity assistant. His duties included delivering news clippings at 8 a.m. daily to the studio’s all-powerful chief, Lew Wasserman.

6/ “After about six months, Mr. Wasserman, apparently impressed by Mr. Stuber’s punctuality, spoke to him for the first time. “He said, ‘Hey kid, what do you want to be when you grow up?’” Mr. Stuber recalled.
The young Mr. Stuber’s quick reply? “You.”

7/ For those less geeked on Hollywood history, Lew was the man responsible for dismantling the Studio System as it had been known, and with the invention of film packaging gave birth to the start system we’re living the end times of.

8/ That’s why connecting Netflix’s disruption back to the coup that reconfigured Hollywood for me sounds like a formal challenge. What a time to be alive.

| “What is the difference between your laptop, model 344 revision 001, and another laptop, model 344, revision 002?”

This is one of the things I despise about the Windows world. Say you have an HP EliteBook 9460m. Sounds like quite a specific model number. You want the graphics drivers. You go to HP.com, navigate Support, plug in your model number ... and are given the option of the Intel or the NVIDIA drivers.

What the hell? Do HP not know which one they put in this machine? Was it just a crap-shoot at the factory? That’s bonkers, in my book.

> I find watching biased news from both sides gives me more info than “moderate” lukewarm reporting. Biased sources tend to make stronger arguments for their narratives and omit less “inconvenient” details of the other side.

Different parties are right about different things.

For example, Trump is unfairly maligned on trade. The tariffs on China are extremely modest -- we tax domestic producers more than that on net. And something has to compensate for China purposely tilting the playing field a hundred different ways. But if you look at left of center media you'd think the tariffs were destroying the economy, with no data but plenty of anecdotes from companies whinging about having to pay a little more for goods from sweatshops in China.

On the other hand, Trump's position on coal is completely indefensible.

Which implies "moderate" isn't a real thing. Saying he's half right on trade and half right on coal isn't moderation, it's gibberish. He's mostly right on trade and entirely wrong on coal. Sawing the baby in half every time is no better than uncritically believing one side over the other.

The trouble is the mainstream sources, especially on cable, are still terrible -- even the ones with an obvious affiliation frequently don't present the best argument for their positions because their goal is to lather up the base and generate ratings rather than actually inform anyone.

And both sides ignore anything that isn't politically expedient. They never really go after the banks, the insurance companies, government contractors or employees -- or if they do it's a populist call to riot rather than any kind of principled proposal to make specific changes.

The best thing to do is to rely on domain experts and primary sources, which are much easier to access now that most everything is on the internet, but it's still more time consuming than most people are going to be able to commit to. Which is maybe why everything is such a mess.

It seems like we need journalists with an opinion but not a party.
The documentary has plenty of shots of tanks entering the battlefield. Probably my favorite part of the whole thing to be honest. It goes from men on horses to seeing tanks roll through.

Yes, rules are needed for a game. But is it enough?

e.g. there are rules to writing a syntactically correct program; ways to drive a car; use a GUI. Does that make them games?

If a user can make a game out of them, what do they add, to make it into a "game"? Is the thing added an objective of some kind (i.e. a win condition)?
I use a OnePlus phone (don't know if HN users have heard of it), and OP users rarely use the fingerprint unlock.

Although the user is definitely compromising on security, the speed of face unlock is such that it is near-instantaneous. Double tap the display, and you don't even have to blink - the phone unlocks.

It may be a gimmick in the early days of Android (think Nougat or even Oreo), but it's definitely not a gimmick now, for me at least. It's fast enough to have proved its worth.
> you might want to add the mouse pointer back when hovering clickable icons.

@cronix thanks. Good observation and interesting point.

The missing "hand" pointer is a side effect of BlockLike. The clickable icons are not image elements wrapped by anchor elements with href. Instead they are Sprites with a click listener attached in JavaScript via their whenClicked method.

My first reaction was to say "yep, let's change the cursor and help the students" and I was thinking I would modify BlockLike so that any clickable entity will have a pointer cursor. Then, after reading around the web [1][2][3] I realized that I shouldn't, as in most cases, the click on the Sprite is an action not a link. Those four icons on the homepage are the exception not the rule.

So, to come around a full circle, changing the mouse pointer to a hand is indeed the developer's responsibility. That being said, this project is both relatively complex and wide in scope with a lot of moving parts, thus it is bound to be rough around the edges. UX, like learning is a never ending job...

I studied vertebrate physiology in college and Vitamin D is a bit of a misnomer, because it’s not really a vitamin, it acts as a hormone. And although Vitamin D is known as the “sunshine vitamin”, you can get it as a supplement. There’s no telling how many people in the study took it as a supplement vs getting it naturally from the sun. But a vitamin D deficiency is a hormonal deficiency. Whether or not they got their hormonal balance from the sun or from a supplement shouldn’t matter so much. And being a hormone, its deficiency can have different symptoms for different people. Depression is a common one.

You can take a vitamin D supplement and stay indoors or otherwise keep your routine and still receive the hormonal benefits if you are deficient.
