Or consider that horrible Jeffrey Epstein. Not a politician, but he hosted politicians on his island of victimized children. Now we've learned that federal prosecutors colluded with his defense team to fool the courts into letting him off with a few months in a part-time minimum-security resort prison. It was fortunate for him that he had cultivated friendships with those in power! It was unfortunate for the little girls, how he cultivated those friendships...
The states that don't offer time off controls a very large portion of the electoral college votes, unfortunately. The ones that offer paid time off are at a real disadvantage because of the electoral college, too.
Or maybe children should vote, since they have all the future ahead of them. If there's a reason why education is ignored so much by governments it's because children don't vote

Let me tell you that grandma' with email is a relatively new phenomena.
b"" is not "a byte string". It's a raw byte sequence:

>>> type(b"foo")
<class 'bytes'>
>>> b'foo'[0]
102

It can hold any bytes, it just happens that one way to contruct/represent it can be done with a string-like syntax as a convenience for developers. But you can actually built it in another way, or make it hold data in any other format:

>>> bytes([102, 111, 111])
b'foo'
>>> struct.unpack('I', b'\x01\x01\x00\x02')
(33554689, )

Also, std::string is exactly that, a raw byte sequence, with some string operations attached to it. But you don't have any encoding attached to it: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1010783/what-encoding-do...

So it makes sense that Python is treating it has a raw bytes array (what you call "a byte string"): it has no way to know that it is UTF8 or CP850 if you don't tell it.

But because of c/c++ experience or habits from python 2, one tends to confuse the concept of text (represented with the type "str" in python) with some specific low level implementation (the raw bytes array).

Python explicitly avoid this problem, by defining that either you know what it is (utf8 text, big endian number, etc) or you don't (raw bytes array). Manipulating text as a raw byte sequence manually would be the equivalent of manipulating directly the IEEE 754 representation of a number: it's not what you want for a high level scripting language, and hence it's why Python 3 doesn't do that anymore.

You can search for J. Rogan with Robert Sapolsky podcast where doc said that either prefrontal or orbitofrontal cortex finishes developing at ~25 years old, so brain can learn about environment and extrapolate accumulated experience later throughout life. I think age bias is not appropriate, because youngsters could consume propaganda with memes, feeds and games as well, just through the different medium. What matters here is anxiety level and/or IQ.
I don't think either consuming or investing is inherently better than the other. investing all of your wealth and never consuming is pointless, why bother creating it in the first place? on the other hand, consuming all your wealth is also an obvious failure mode; eventually there will be nothing left. a successful society needs to strike a balance between investment and consumption. the steps to make this happen probably cannot be expressed in a short HN comment.

But it is pointless unless everyone does it, at least until a large percentage of the population does it. You're ignoring opportunity cost, this isn't like recycling where I have nothing to lose by doing it. Until we reach critical mass, the early adopters would have essentially "subsidized" everyone else.

A few ounces of meat/fish a day aren't going to cause any of those diseases and are packed with nutrients that a vegan diet has a very hard time providing at a similar cost, especially in poor countries. The Gates foundation isn't betting on chicken on a whim. I still think moderation is the way to go. If everyone cut their intake by 50% we'd have a healthier population, animal slaughter would be cut in half, and we wouldn't have to reinvent meat.
I prefer to use my computer to do productive things, instead of fighting against the OS. MacOS is a certified Unix underneath. Works great.
Exactly the same kind of shift here.

That being said the compensation, IIRC, didn't cross 10k PLN, so divided between all people entitled it wasn't much.
That's because std::string does not carry any sort of encoding information, std::string is basically a wrapper around bytes (hopefully I'm not misreading this, I'm far from an expert C/C++ programmer). Due to this, python can't make any assumptions about encoding/decoding without the possibility of getting it wrong.

"Note that this class handles bytes independently of the encoding used: If used to handle sequences of multi-byte or variable-length characters (such as UTF-8), all members of this class (such as length or size), as well as its iterators, will still operate in terms of bytes (not actual encoded characters)."

The last election really turned me off of social media. The amount of absolutely false memes and screenshots being shared by both sides was way too much. I recently saw some of the ads and memes being churned out by the Russian propaganda machine. I was not so surprised some of the stuff they created was the same crap people I knew were sharing as truth by intelligent yet older people.
Well, where's the learning?

There's a general tendency to reclassify any kind of statistical analysis that produces a useful result as "machine learning", and I don't think it helps. For example there are lots of machine vision techniques; the neural net ones can sensibly be called "learning" but things like edge detection shouldn't be.

(also, just because something is taught in course X doesn't mean that it is X, it might be an embedded prerequisite)
It’s extremely difficult to date as an Asian in the us. The traditional dating sites and apps refuse to implement finer grained Asian ethnicity filters, so more than 80% of our effort on apps that do let us click “Asian” such as Coffee meets bagels is spent simply trying to decipher whether the person is from Hong Kong, mainland China, or Taiwan, or some other random East Asian country.

Tinder is basically useless as it refuses to allow us to filter by only Asians.

Not to mention as an Asian in the USA, after you locate a person who is from the same place you are, you then additionally need to decipher how westernized they are. It’s sometimes obvious in the profiles, but this is all quite annoying.

The (single) Asian market in the USA is still not large enough to sustain an app that allows finer grained choices. I wonder when someone will realize that a small shop with just couple engineers could swoop in here and make an impact that economically viable for them too.
Do your competitor research. Which is the closest brand offering what you're offering. What kind of brand voice do they use when communicating with their customers? What are they doing right? Are there any gaps in their designs that your brand can fill?

Talk to customers:
- Look up fashion subreddits to see what people are wearing, what they like and what they don't.
- Reach out to Instagrammers that fit your customer profile. If they have a large number of followers, see if they'd be interested in trying out a sample of your designs.
- Get an advertiser account on FB/IG and use their hyper targeting ability (geo, age range, favorite brands, etc) to get an idea of the size of your market

Test out different platforms that you'll use to sell. Shopify, Etsy, Squarespace etc all offer ways to sell online, but the prices, levels of service and reliability are going to vary.

Try to forecast your production volume accurately, so you don't accidentally take orders for items you no longer have inventory for.

It's an unsubstantiated comment that doesn't offer anything to the conversation. It provides no context, nothing to argue against, no examples, no solutions, but it's allowed because it fits within the HN userbase's opinion. An opinion often grounded in narrative and not facts.

> Well, yeah. If I'd like to hang myself, I'd pick a technology with fewer correctness guarantees. As it turns out, that's not what I want. This is self-evident.

That's exactly what I'm talking about. I'd also like to pick up some "silver bullet", like Elm(if I got you right), for any new project.

Unfortunately, real world is usually a little bit more complicated than "I'm free to pick up any technology that I want. All browsers are the same, their behavior is consistent, mobile web is pure joy and all of our users know their plugins might cause an issue to our app, therefore they're disabling them when they launch our app".

Anybody who does webdev knows that. Different projects, different requirements(sometimes very, very strange), brand new requirements right before the release, deadlines, etc. There're lots of things you have to deal with to end up with a good website\app. Picking a language with nice "correctness guarantees", is not going to help you much.

There were times, long time before 0.19, when there were at least discussions on effect managers, extending the type system, native modules were a nice escape hatch to fix your problem at hand with nasty browser bug or even Elm runtime issue. Those were times when I was so excited to use Elm, did some tiny (sub)projects in it, did a workshop at the office.

Since then, many things have changed to the worse, imho. Some features were removed, not even deprecated. No public discussions, no roadmap, no bugfix releases, no escape hatches for special cases. But who cares what some random guy on the internets thinks :)

Don't get me wrong, I think Elm is a great experiment in the land of static languages, lots of great stuff is getting into mainstream languages(like Elm architecture, error msgs). I still hope we'll see the 1.0 version and things might get better in terms of feature stability, feedback and building things a little bit more complex than counter apps without hitting even more pain points than we have with modern JS\TS.

Is there any evidence for this? I assumed they forked the last Apache 2.0 version of Mongo.
I should add that the United States of America is the only place most drugs are still prescriptions. In the EU and most other countries, what I am asking for already exists for the most part. I am learning how to make the prescriptions that I currently use.
Frontend

- Angular

- vanilla JS

Backend

- Springboot

- nodejs

DB

- MySQL

- MongoDB

HTTP server (if needed)

- Apache

OS

- centos

If the project is complex, Angular + Springboot are the best enterprise ready frameworks I've worked with.

If it's a simple project. NodeJS with Express for simple API requests. And on the frontend you rarely need a JS framework if the project is simple, not even a CSS framework.

As for the databases, MySQL, in my opinion, is the easiest RDB and MongoDB is a good all purpose DB.

You are bending yourself backward trying to ignore that sexism or discrimination may have not been the issue here.

If theses others products were there, why wasn't they banned too if there is sexism?

That article is only one side of the story, a side that clearly want to prove that sexism and discrimination was at play here. It's fine but it only tell argument in favor of that hypothesis.

In this case, maybe her stands was relative to her winning. That would means she could no longer showcase, but wouldn't actually be disallowed to showcase (except by the deadline, which isn't sexist I can assure you ;) ).

There's still so much sexism in the world, particularly in entrepreneurship, but blaming everything on it is dangerous and can actually hurt the cause.

> because I have nothing but disdain and scorn for MongoDB

That’s bit harsh. MongoDB has its uses. Denormalized data struture make it very easy to scale for example. Being able to use JS everywhere is nice too.
Good point. I've seen a few metaphors for this. Commandos, grunts, and MPs. Explorers, settlers, and caretakers. Scientists, engineers, and archivists. No matter what metaphor you choose, the last seems to be the least popular and practically nobody wants to do (or is good at) all three. I've worked three times with a guy who's a fantastic #3, nicely complementing my own #1/#2 tendencies. It's another good axis for people to think about, and understand their own preferences. Thanks.
2redbeans is a cesspool of superficiality such as the group in this article - it’s not a good enough solution either.
While that's better it just shifts the problem: Now you have to trust the JS code you're being sent. If an attacker can hijack their current approach, I would think that sending out modified JS wouldn't be to difficult to do either. The trust root currently when using SSH from your machine is an unmodified and non-hostile SSH client.

> it was a willingness to do extreme, mortally-dangerous stunts?

Something like that. It's up to you what you want to take from it. But inspiration is such that you might not be inspired to follow the example directly, but you can use the example to find some other kind of courage to display.

For example, your company may need someone to do some really dirty task that no one wants to do. If you step up to the plate, that creates an opening for something greater to happen.
The big one is convenience: if you need to do some quick maintenance from a computer you're not usually using, it's fast and easy to do so here (e.g. if you want to administer your server from a firewalled work PC, or from your parents' house).

Gov Security Falters During U.S. Shutdown
First of all I'll say it's one thing to say "Live Frugally" and another to actually do it. We provide almost no education about how to do it in schools and social pressures and advertising train us to never do it. Also health issues, insulin resistance from garbage food, and depression make it 10 times harder.

It is possible to live happy and cheaply on voluntary expenses:

* Free Books, Internet and Movies: Library

* Free Exercise: Parks, Outdoor Running,

* Cheap Entertainment: Library, Walks, Public Beaches, Cycling, Board Games

However these things are usually like 10% of your income. It's like focusing on the dog pooping on your lawn while an elephant smashes your house.

Things that make you broke in the US no matter what:

* RENT RENT RENT RENT RENT

* Electricity Costs (You literally have no choice since most modern homes will rot if you don't condition them.)

* Water and garbage (Even if you don't use a drop and never touch a paper towel you still pay at least $40 for sewer and base fees)

* Transportation (Public transportation is iffy even if it's available. Late trains are a great way to lose your job.)

* Medical bills (Even if you are lucky enough to have insurance)

You can get something very similar using AWS Cloud9. You can make Cloud9 workspaces that are full IDEs, which also includes terminal access. If you use your Cloud9 workspace as just a frontend to you own server (using SSH), it's free (besides the likely negligible data transfer), and it can be any server you want, not just on AWS. If you use your Cloud9 workspace bundled to a new EC2 Server, you pay the normal hourly cost of the server, and can have it shut itself off when it's idle.

So Cloud9 does the same thing, plus file editing in your browser, for pretty much free. And while Amazon isn't perfect, I trust their security more than a random site.

Not determined yet it seems but from the looks of things an upgraded model involving the endocrine system and more recently the gut microbiome seems promising.

The obesity code referenced in a sibling comment is an interesting read absolutely, fasting is the authors suggestion. It doesn’t talk much of gut microbiome, which seems like a big factor from recent studies, but mentions a very interesting connection to fiber intake though which the author (at that time) interprets simply as a means, to lower GI.

Edit: My take
- Avoid sugar and sweeterners (Probably want at least 14-days between servings)
- Avoid highly processed grains, treat them as sugars, go for whole grains and things with husks instead
- In general avoid things that trigger cravings
- Healthy fats (nuts, virgin olive oil) are an excellent source of calories, don’t go hungry
- Eat lots (lots) of different vegetables
- (for adults) Take longer fasts from time to time (3+ days, but probably no more than a week without proper guidance)
- East at most two times a day

Chaco Canyon is not very close to any large-ish city to begin with. Just driving from Albuquerque is about 3 hours to get to the 4-wheel-drive-only road into the park. That road is generously described as 'washboard' in the best of conditions, which are rare. Once there, there is only tent camping. Water and toilets are available, but not any food or drink though, 'amenities' are sparse. It's difficult to get to and stay at, so you really have to want to be there. Though I may not know too much about the current zeitgeist of Insta' , I'd imagine that Chaco is not 'worth' the trip if you are just there for the photos and likes. However, if you are there to experience the archeology, the people, and the astounding mystery of the Chacoans, the effort is very much worth it. Besides, the stars at night are some of the clearest I've ever seen, and those show up terribly on a phone camera.
