The mountain meadows used for skiing are kind of a mess during the summer.

I'm Swiss, and going to ski basically means to be pulled up by a lift and slide back down. The entire concept of it is laughably unproductive, resulting at most in sunburns, sports injuries and further pollution from drunk people at après ski parties. It's preposterous hedonism.

All this talk of being understanding and non-judgmental, but here you are, passing judgment on his words without caring to understand his intention. More concerned about how you think he ought to have said it than what he actually meant. This is the way to destroy open and honest communication in society. Passive-aggressiveness and silent grudges, everywhere.

And who made you the judge of condescension, anyway? How condescending is that. Hypocrisy.
Don't remember where I heard it but once someone remarked that if President Obama could make time for an hour a day for exercise, then most people (which is to say, people not buried under their work or facing other difficult challenges) probably can come up with a better excuse than simply not having the time.
Ask HN: How a phone can be more powerfull than a full size laptop?
As you may have seen, Fortnite will run at 60 fps on the latest Honor View 20 at a resolution of 1080 x 2310 with passive cooling and 0 noise (the game also runs at stable 30 fps+ on last year now 300 usd phones).(1)

Meanwhile, on the latest intel CPU (with integrated so called HD graphics GPU) at a resolution of 1280 x 720, the game performs at between 30 and 50 fps with considerable amount of noise and heat.(2)

So, my question is: how a 600 usd phone (300 usd in a year or so) can outperform by that much a 1,000 usd + laptop? It just beats me...

Are Intel/AMD chips that bad? Are Huawei/Qualcomm chips that good?

Lobbying itself is not culprit as it has been present since the beginning of society. Only thing that make it heinous now is the change in mindset of people(more greedy).

I'm sure it's not foolproof, but I've had no problems whatsoever sticking to UK sellers with consistently high feedback. I have no intention saving another 50p getting something shipped from an unknown in the Far East with long lead time, and dubious returns possibilities.

eBay weight disputes heavily in buyer favour, so if I did get caught out a PayPal refund would likely be given without question.
Coming from the coffee industry this comment is mostly the best steps I read so far. It's common for coffee professionals to quit coffee for 10-15 days 2-3 times a year.

almost no fat, which makes it hard to cook right. it goes tough very easily.

The best roo I've ever had was Kangaroo tail, cooked over many hours buried under the remains of a campfire. (aboriginal style)

pulled it out, cracked the fur off it (cause it melted and cooked into a hard shell) then peeled the meat off with my fingers... it was buttery soft.
The problem is, that even after a 1-minute workout, I need to take a shower and change my clothes if I want to stay 8+ more hours with other people.
Everyone should know that these restrictions are applied on the first boot with an internet connection, and after application aren't easy to remove even if you root the phone and install a different rom.

The simple solution is never let the phone contact the internet or the phone network with the default ROM.
that works on word level, but unfortunately is the syntax too different to full paragraphs adapt (this is German word order). too different is an exaggeration but highlights the problem the GP mentions. por mir zu traduire weird idiomatics sono (sonet?) malade to het capo/tete/Kopf--For me to translate weird idiomatics sounds crazy in the head (that's along the lines of for them to ... and not ... sounds crazy for me, although the former might stem from a corruption of the latter if I'm any judge).

Hi and thanks for the link!

I will definitely watch it, but may I ask if you know how the lit-html or hyper work? Reason I was asking was that all the vdom libraries maintain a virtual dom (behind the live dom) that they always recreate when the data changes (but this is cheap, since it's only a data structure), then they compare reconstructed virtual dom to the live dom and swap out only the new parts. And this way the browser only needs to re-render the new parts -- since the old ones didn't change.

But the two other libraries I mentioned remember the "holes" in the html templates directly. So when the component gets new data, then the updated content is simply set as the value of these direct references into the live dom. This way (1) only the new parts are updated and thus re-rendered, but also (2) no virtual dom needs to be reconstructed. And this is why they are faster than the vdom libraries.

So my question basically was, do you reconstruct the entire component tree too or not. But I guess I need to watch the video and read some code :)

A photon is moving at the speed of light. Things moving at the speed of light do not experience distance or time (and have no mass), for them their creation and destruction are the same event.

This effect is also valid for objects with actual mass, the faster you go the slower your time moves relative to everyone else and the shorter distances become. You can't hit the speed of light but you can get fairly close.

Are you sure on that? It was B method they used afaik.
Because of type erasure. The compiler removes all type information, and these checks are actually to support a common JavaScript paradigm (doing manual, run time checks).

Often found in code checking function argument types to determine which version of a “polymorphic” function was called, e.g. jQuery’s $.post.

TypeScript is all about annotating existing JavaScript code, so they strive to support the full JavaScript vernacular.

> and the community wanted to use something else other than C to program their GPGPUs.

This assertion makes no sense. The whole reason why these APIs are specified based on C is that once a C API is available its trivial to develop bindings in any conceivable language. You can't do that if you opt for a flavor of the month.

Furthermore, GPGPU applications are performance-driven, and C is unbeatable in this domain. Thus by providing a standard API in C and by enabling standard implementations to be implemented in C you avoid forcing end-users to pay a performance tax just because someone had an irrational fear of C.
good point. Thanks for noting. So probably or surely there are other factors too.

Europe , for what I saw in Asterix comics, at least, looked pretty nice too. And was probably wonderful and beautiful and not that hostile, in real life.

Just a story, not trying to make any strong point.

DoF design patterns is Java bollocks IMO.

It's only Java developers and to a lesser extent C# developers that really go nuts for this stuff. Visitor is clearly a framework for expressing multimethods - thus one can say Visitor is merely a workaround for the constriction of expressiveness of a given language - which is a claim made about many of the GoF patterns.

Singletons as a pattern? How is that different to global variables? It isn't.
My product isn't yet at a point where it has a market fit but I came up with a small excel file that goes in the same direction as my product. I can offer that for free and it starts to pull in organic traffic from google, bing and other places like forums where I suggest my free tool as a solution for someone's problem.

My tip for most SaaS out there: If your "keyword + excel/pdf/template" is an easy target, then think about creating a free sub-product with a decent landing-page for it.
Ditto for the obesity crisis - the solution isn't to make less caloric foods, it's to change the culture of excessive portion sizes and sedentary lifestyles.

Agree that our sedentary lifestyles are a significant contributing factor to obesity, but you have it backwards about portion sizes.

Calorie dense (palatable) foods trigger our the reward centers in our brain more than non-palatable foods, and actually make us more hungry. This is an evolved survival strategy.

If you look at hunter gatherer diets, they will eat huge portions of extremely high calorie foods when they are available (e.g. drinking whole glasses of honey). They don't put on a lot of weight because they are more active, and don't have daily access to high calorie foods.

This means that large portions (and by extension obesity) are caused by the easy availability and low cost of high calorie foods. Telling people to eat less doesn't work because the systems that trigger hunger and fat retention work at a subconscious level and are in general more powerful than the conscious mind. The food environment that we have built up around us is a bad one for human beings.

If you want to learn more about how our hunger and fat regulation systems work then I can highly recommend "The Hungry Brain" by Stephan Guyenet [1].

Aside from pricing (different workloads yield different results), I'd say that:

GCP has much more modern APIs (they got to do "right" the first time around, while AWS had to learn from their "mistakes")

GCP is less mature with documentation, but still excellent (AWS is first class). I've found bugs, and others I know have run into straight up wrong docs - a quick message to support yielded the correct information and docs update within the week.

GCP is far more "opinionated" about how you should run a service. AWS is opinionated as well, but less so. What this means is that while GCP will sell you resources in traditional way, to go GCP native or from scratch really requires buying into the GCP "way" of doing things more than AWS does. Basically, K8S or go home.

We use GCP and I enjoy it quite a bit. I have extensive AWS experience as well, but no strong preference.
sometimes i find myself grumbling over some article where anybody doing a little coding calls himself a hacker and thinking “in my days we use to code our own (insert any now commercially o free available software) ..” but this is hacking at its pure and best: radically transforming something with code.
The thing is a managerial schedule has a lot of autonomy. The president decides when all the meetings are. Even ambassadors will move their appointments around to see you if you're POTUS.

Similarly for a lot of these tough-guy manager stories, they aren't doing anything that requires deep thinking like debugging TCP stacks.

It doesn't really need strong ethical standards here. This scientist received almost universal criticism in China.
No, because you can write async functions without using async/await. Using callback for example:

Future<int> foo() {
return Future.delayed(Duration(seconds: 1)).then((x) => 1);
}

In this case there is no compiler magic needed. If you ask why async keyword is needed if we can just infer it from await inside the method body - probably only for readability.

we are struggling to maintain price parity on Google Cloud versus both Azure and AWS.

AWS now has the new arm machines in production which are cheaper. AWS also allows yearly prepaid managed databases - while Google still charges per second billing (with some monthly discount). My AWS TCO comes out to be much, much lower (almost 30%) than GCP if i take into account committed use/prepayment discounts.

It's the real curl[0]. I actually like the aliases and they've even added ctrl-shift paste in the options. Maybe they should be the default.

The windows filesystem still makes no sense but that's an NT issue (dropbox cant sync con.sh???). SSH has a surprisingly native feel but graphical apps (vim, screen) still have rendering problems, and the ssh-agent daemon isn't set up right by default.

Until they make Windows LTSC unusable, it's not _too_ horrible right now. But for a serious programming project there's still no question for me (but fix your damnable sound drivers Ubuntu).

As far as I can tell, the universe doesn't care if I live or die, so it's "fine" in that sense, yes. If there was some benefit to you and your progeny, you'd be wise to do it. You might have to navigate our modern legal system mind you ;-) And of course humans are capable of cooperation too, I might be more valuable to you as an ally. Your call.

> But in 5 years we'll start to see automated solutions that record all of the inputs, outputs and logs of these containers and reverse engineer the internal logic into something that looks more like a spreadsheet or lisp.

And that Lisp code will look something like: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!msg/comp.lang.lisp/4nwskBo...

(Unfortunately, Lisp neither makes you smarter, nor a better programmer, which seems to be a very profound, ego-wounding disappointment for a lot of people who try to dabble in Lisp programming).

Now programming-by-spreadsheets, on the other hand, is a real thing, that is almost as old as Lisp, and is called "decision tables." It was a fad that peaked in the mid-1970s. There were several software packages that would translate decision tables to COBOL code, and other packages that would interpret the tables directly. I think decision tables are still interesting for several reasons: they are a good way to do requirements analysis for complex rules; the problem of compiling a decision table to an optimum sequence of conditional statements is interesting to think about and has some interesting algorithmic solutions; and lookup table dispatching can be a good way to simplify and/or speed up certain kinds of code.

What is not interesting at all is the use case of decision tables for "business rules." A few of the 1970s software packages survive in one form of another, and I have not heard anything good about them. And the problem is very simple: the "business folks" generally do not know what they actually want. They have some vague ideas that turn out to be either inconsistent, or underspecified in terms of the "inputs," or in terms of the "outputs," or have "outputs" that on second thought they did not really want, and they (the "business folks") never think about the interactions that several "business processes" of the same "business rule" might have if they take place at the same time, much less the interactions of different "business rules," etc.

AI cannot solve the problem of people not knowing what they want or are talking about. Machine learning on wrong outcomes and faulty assumptions is only going to dumb systems and people down (IMO this is already obvious from the widespread use of recommendation systems).
Considering that a 30 minute workout often incorporates, getting dressed (5 min), driving to the gym (20 min), working out (30 min), driving home (20 min), taking a shower (15 min), being so exhausted that the rest of the night is down the drain....

The 30 minute workout is a myth...
I really don't think it needs to be that complicated. French cuisine, for example, is full of butter, fat, wine, and other theoretically unhealthy foods.

Yet the French have dramatically lower rates of obesity than the Americans, and recent increases in the French obesity rate are mostly due to Americanization / a drift from traditional French food culture.

I obviously don't have the data, but I think it's simply because meals are traditionally "sacred" in French culture (that is, you don't eat snacks in between meals) and because portion sizes are much, much smaller than the American equivalent.
Very useful. Thank you!
