You’ve hit on my fears too. I was in LA for a year among yes, queer circles, and nearly everyone was playing with poly but that’s all it was: play. All relationships were superficial and all fled for the hills as soon as difficulties were encountered. What is a life when you can depend on no one for comfort.

This goes hand in hand with my thinking that no one knows how to do poly “right”. They appear to be tools for people to stay blissfully ensconced in their regimes of self-care. I remember in my first poly relationship I was ready to go to war for my partners. But I almost never felt this readiness returned. To them, it might have been so much adornment for an aesthetic life holding little in the way of deep and lasting engagement.

For an image of what this could look like, Bertolucci’s “The Dreamers” hits the spot.
You forgot to mention why formatters would be superior. I do share your opinion, and the two reasons I can think of are (1) consistency and (2) short-circuits style discussions in code review.
> More generally, I feel government exists to ensure the collective safety and security of society.

Do you honestly believe that if FB (and no other platform except self-hosting) offered no live videos (in NZ or worldwide), the shooting would not have happened?
The problem isn't that a government funded research team is slower, it's that the private research team is in addition to the government research team. There are an uncountable number of illnesses and conditions that treatments could help with, but we have only so many resources to throw at these problems. Additional resources will allow us to find treatments for problems that we couldn't afford to research otherwise.

If the government invests $100 billion into medical research and private companies invest another $100 billion then we're probably getting more medical research done than if only the government invested $100 billion into medical research, and the private companies spent the $100 billion on making movies.
Actually they should not allow live content posts, just like TV broadcasting corporations are required to have a delay in case something harmful or disturbing were to be broadcast.

They're 100% responsible for building a platform which allows for this kind of content to be posted and broadcast en-masse with zero responsibility or accountability.

It amazes me people think that making a profit from this kind of "platform" is acceptable.
Good question, perhaps I'm still dreaming and wake up tomorrow searching for coconuts on the beach...

The only thing I know is I worked on many projects at many companies for the last 15 years. This gives some confidence :)
I've experienced that too. I lived many years in a so-called developing country, and when coming back to my native, so-called developed, country I was struck by the difference in crowd behavior between the two. In the former people were way more efficient.

Since then, I practice relaxation techniques when walking in the streets, and I'm not bothered anymore.
Michel Houellebecq (especially his first "Whatever", original title "Extension du domaine de la lutte", "Extension of the domain of the fight") should be obligatory reading for everybody, as it deals exactly with these issues- from a rather cynical and depressing point of view, of course.
Nobody wants to erect a massive social infrastructure that diminishes their enjoyment of their time to improve YOUR enjoyment of society. In fact nobody on planet earth wants to be subjected to what YOU or any other person believes they ought to do with their money/time without pay.

Can you imagine how your friends would feel if you stole from their wallet to plan a party and told them you would steal some more if they didn't come?

Is their a particular reason you aren't suggesting organizing more events say in your locality and encouraging rather than forcing people to join?
government censorship comes with a significant price to a society. Far to high as to push problems on it that amounts to bad parenting and consuming objectionable comments.

Recent Typescript convert here: I find Typescript a GREAT tool for those experimental projects. They are the ones that need constant refactoring as you build, which is where Typescript shines.
Thanks for your thoughtful reply — I was thinking more along the lines of ‘schedule 4-7 events through the year’ claim them on your tax return for an extra bonus or something . Maybe the word enforce was too strong — that’s why I’m not a lawyer lol
> I think frustrated dudes need a shift in attitude, a more open-mind and make an effort for their own sake. A more pleasing personality, better social adroitness and improved awareness goes a long ways to many things in life.

Yeah, the "just be yourself" narrative needs to die. Not because it's false(you should be authentic in your words and actions) but because it is used as an excuse to not make an effort to self-improve.
Same here.

Tried to get autocomplete to work in Spacemacs for C/C++ using Rtags. While it worked for the project files it could not autocomplete external libraries (such as OpenGL). Since this is why I mostly need autocomplete I could not use Spacemacs as a daily driver even though it had a lot of features that worked really well and was in general a pleasure to use.

Does anyone else here have experience related to what I tried to achieve? Would love to hear similiar experiences.

To an extent, it really isn't hard to be a 10x programmer.

Take, for example, the median level 1x programmer. Perhaps a Java programmer working at a large tech corporation on a team of 1000+ in Indonesia or Brazil.

That guy isn't visiting HN. That guy doesn't read tech articles at home. He may join a few programmer groups on Reddit or Facebook. But his main concern is that he gets paid and feeds his family. He doesn't care so much about doing his work well, but he cares that he does it well enough to make a 10% salary raise each year.

He can probably reverse a linked list. But his searches are all O(n^2), and he can't do any less. The company that hires him doesn't really care - they're unfamiliar that things can be better, and as far as they know, they'd rather get hire ten $15k guys than a single $150k star programmer.

Is it possible to code 3x faster than that guy? Certainly. Especially when it comes to harder parts of the work.

Is it possible to code 3x better? As in code that's more efficient and doesn't crash as much? Also very likely.

And someone who codes 3x faster also reduces the cost of the project drastically - you can pay a team one month wages instead of three.

Now you put these multipliers together, you get easily more than 10x, quantifiably.

Sports players may try to run 100m a second faster, but star programmers can easily build a project faster and cheaper.
Exactly. There is no cult of "free speech" in Europe. We will just block such sites if they don't reform.
Doing keto for several years on and off, longest time was two years. While being on keto is absolutely recommended, I haven't seen signifcant impact on sleep quality.

Being on keto reduces your general anxiety. Or being on carbs makes you much more anxious and a doubting person. Maybe there is a small relation: Less anxiety leads to better sleep. In my case, I needed to fix my sleep with other things, keto didn't help there.

OT: I think that from a specific age (mid 30ies+) one cannot just eat carbs and gluten like they did when they were young. At a higher age carbs impact you much more. People get bloated and age way quicker. You see 'high carb' written in their face.

OT2: Not entirely sure if this post's actual goal is promoting the mentioned carb tracker app.

OT3: Maybe a bit extreme but very true is a quote by Talib: 'The three most harmful addictions are heroin, carbohydrates, and a monthly salary'
I think it does apply to programming, but quantitative increases in programming also come from the adoption of new tools, programming paradigms, programming languages etc.
The fact that millions buy ANYTHING isn't much of an indication of quality in any area of human endeavor.

After using Nokia N9 (and Nokia N950) for 1.5 years and switching back then to iOS, I almost couldn't believe how crappy iOS alarm experience was (and still is!) in contrast to the overall polished UI.

I also enjoyed a lot the swipe based navigation between screens and closing apps by swiping them app – this concept was so much ahead of it's time. Now it's in iOS and Android as well.

Whoever worked on Meego/Harmattan UI – you are geniuses. Just know that your work was very much appreciated even if underrated by mainstream.
> Life is still life, and death is still infinitely worse.

^^ That's an opinion, phrased as if it was a fact. It's a value judgement and nothing more. I respect that it's your opinion, but just because you fervently believe it doesn't make it objectively true.

If you wish to engage in a meaningful and productive conversation, you'll need to be more honest about separating your opinions from fact. I think that, underneath all the shouting, you have a very interesting take on the issue. I'd like to discuss it. But it's drowned out by your inability to recognize that other people can have a different -- and equally valid -- interpretation of what "quality of life" means.

(Also, no: You cannot "decide things" about excruciating pain. It takes over a person's ability to reason. Chronic, debilitating pain very much robs a person of their agency.)
> There’s even a likely network effect where those men who sleep around are even more attractive to potential mates

Of course, "attractiveness" is exactly this, the amount of partners you can get. We are certainly wired to consider the latter as an indicator of the former. Like a share's value is only marginally determined by its fundamentals, and more by how much is bought by others.
When RIAA/MPAA/etc. came with astronomical fines, those same companies suddenly created the capabilities to block things that even smelled like copyrighted material. Whatever your opinion of MAFIAA is, it would seem this sort of detection can be done when a large enough stick is presented.
> (...) creates an environment where the only people who can afford housing are the rent control lottery winners, and the very wealthy who can outbid everyone else for the few remaining units. In other words, San Francisco.

I would also add that it also creates the ideal environment for corruption and organized crime, as bribing decision-makers becomes the only way for some to have access to desirable housing. Supply and demand always works, and if those with a higher purchasing power are in the race then their highet offers are extended through side-channels.
Their own customers are using less than 15 GB per month, how much battery could they possibly save on the radio? A single video will use more radio time than days of image downloads in the browser. Furthermore, Google themselves didn't mention battery savings but just fewer bytes sent.

And what delicious irony if they couldn't solve this with HTTP/2 because of servers not implementing the spec correctly or having weird undocumented quirks (their reason for not enabling pipelining despite it working just fine).

This sounds quite interesting to me, have you tried a FODMAP diet for your IBS symptoms before switching to keto? I've been going back and forth on FODMAPs for the last year and a half to try and pinpoint what it is that triggers my symptoms, however no matter how "cleanly" I eat I often end up getting symptoms from foods that are supposedly safe for me (or no symptoms at all from stuff that a few months ago would've given me days of problems).
I'm looking to switch it up a bit since it doesn't seem like FODMAP is a viable long term solution and it's not solving my problems entirely, would you recommend looking into keto?
Come on, you can't be this ignorant. This is simply a stunt to get more political power. You can't just offload social ills and political failure on Facebook. Scapegoating.

Turns out there are still more than enough women for all of us. Joe average actually has little challenge getting a mate same as before. The guy 3 steps down is the one with a problem that isn't manifestly different than its ever been.
So does it mean that everything in the Universe is getting bigger but since everything is getting bigger we don't know it because relative sizes are the same?

That's because they their members often have no idea of how to be in a meaningful relationship (but feel entitled to their distorted view of how it should look like) and treat women like objects.

Not only does my ISP have no "incentive to deliver on privacy, my ISP is _legally required_ not to deliver on privacy.

They are by law in the tinpot jurisdiction I live in, required to retain all "meta data" about my internet connection, and provide it to "law enforcement" which has turned out to include not just terrorist and serious drug crime divisions of the police, but also local council garbage services and the taxi commission.

All I need from a VPN service is for it to be slightly more difficult to request all the data invading my privacy than the mandatory legal disclosure of it that I'm subject to anyway. Anything beyond time-zone slowness and paperwork incompetence is just a bonus. I prefer VPN providers based in France or Finland or Iceland - on the perhaps vaguely over reliant on bad stereotypes theory that they'll put English language requests at the bottom of the pile, and that the Sydney Taxi Commission won't have an Icelandic speaker on hand to ask them for my internet date records...

Even if they keep all traffic logs, and even if they happily turn it over without a fight to anyone who can fake a plausible looking LEO email address from Australia, I'm still ahead in at least some important waays privacy-wise over not running a VPN at all... If they really don't keep logs, or really will push back against LEO requests without proper warrants, even better. But not doing that doesn't;t make them useless...
No Prisma is not like JOOQ. We are happily using JOOQ internally at Prisma so i happen to know. The main differences in my opinion are:
- JOOQ is a SQL Query Builder which is typesafe in regards to the fact that you cannot make SQL syntax errors in your query. However you can still write queries that are e.g. using a table that does not exist. In contrast the Prisma Client gets generated for all your tables and columns and this error is impossible. You also don't need to do any mapping from SQL result sets to your application models.
- JOOQ is about SQL. Prisma is not only about SQL but also any other kind of database. Prismas architecture is comprised of a database agnostic core and database specific connectors. Therefore it can connect to any database for which a connector exists. Right now we have connectors for Postgres, MySQL and MongoDB. More are in the works and in the future people will be able to implement their own connectors :-)
- Prisma has a migration system but JOOQ does not have one.
there's no censorship, direct or indirect, in HK. that is why there is less of the Internet in the EU than in HK.

> Don't they always adapt to different rule sets anyway? ... Plus kids are more or less constantly probing for edge cases and try to push the boundaries naturally.

Isn’t this observation kinda the point of the assertion kids need a stable set of rules at home going back to one source above others whether that is either parent or both as a pair. That’s what prevents them from endlessly pushing their boundaries out.

Also this kind of reasoning is hard in forums because people on forums seem to have a lot of difficulty not crossing generations for groups with specific examples and hypotheticals.

I was about to say this too, as I've found that phone-gazing while walking is super prevalent compared to anywhere else I've been to. There's even research into using robots to try to get people to stop doing it [1]. At least they're more likely to apologize when they bump into you compared to other places.

Just to clarify, chicken bones themselves aren't a huge issue. It's cooked chicken bones, actually any cooked bones at all, that splinter and cause problems.

Of course, birds have small bones so dogs can conceivably choke on them when uncooked as well, but it's generally not a huge concern. The splintering however, is a result of cooking[1].

There's a huge difference between covering terrible events as a news story and providing the platform for content engineered to divide and radicalize to proliferate to millions. Also yes YouTube should be liable, not for the video of the NZ shooting being re-uploaded, but for the thousands of hours of hateful violent propaganda they allow to spread on their platform even facilitating it by suggesting it to users with their algorithm.

Drawing parallels between mediums like TV/Film is problematic because there's never been anything like the internet in human history, that being said a TV example of the kind of content that shouldn't be legal: 30 minute produced broadcast dedicated to sharing fake crime stats about Muslims and encouraging viewers to organize violent attacks on their local mosques - this is what goes on the internet. Users from 8chan were (and still are) encouraging and validating the NZ shooter. We have specific incidents and shooters we can point to now. Elliot Rodgers (Santa Barbara shooter) was an active redditor and incel and had his extreme beliefs were both validated and enforced by that community before he took action, ending innocent lives. One could make a case that without the wide ranging communal support these psychotic individuals wouldn't have been emboldened to act on their hateful beliefs. Nothing even close to this is broadcast to a wide audience anywhere but the internet and it shouldn't be permitted on the internet either.

Relevant comment from HN in 2017:
taurath on July 19, 2017 [-]

If 20 people were to stand up on a soapbox with a megaphone in times square screaming about /r/redpill, /r/fatpeoplehate, etc concepts they would be removed if legal, and if not legal a huge countermovement would appear to try to force them out. On Reddit you get both the megaphone and the safe space, but are still just as easily accessible to the public as anywhere.

Its "real" freedom of information, without many of the mechanisms that larger society uses to fight back against it. Instead it is just ignored and left to fester and grow until it pops into the public forum at the point where huge efforts are required to fight it.

Doesn't the data discussed in this threat directly contradict your statement of "there are more than enough women for everyone"?

And so does historical data, isn't it the case that many men didn't reproduce historically, which can be seen through genetic analysis?

Edit: cursory googling turns up this, for example: https://psmag.com/environment/17-to-1-reproductive-success (8,000 Years Ago, 17 Women Reproduced for Every One Man)

Also from the article: "In more recent history, as a global average, about four or five women reproduced for every one man."
I agree, these websites already cause a new pattern of “quickly scroll to the bottom to make sure everything’s loaded”
I basically have to do this now before I board a train.

It’s good they’re implementing this, but it will mislead people to thinking the whole website is ready to use. It’s a shame an option couldn’t be “load the rest after page load”.
I'd argue cutting refined sugar is good for everyone, and probably the easiest place to start when you're trying to lose weight / live more healthily. Replace sugary coke with a sugar free version, or put less sugar in coffee (that's how I started); the cravings, if you have them, will gradually diminish.

I believe cheese fits in a keto diet as well. If you want to adjust that a bit, go for hard / old cheese instead of soft ones. Also go for real cheese, none of that "sandwich slices" stuff in unrefrigerated plastic packaging.
Something to consider when talking about anything wheat/gluten related is that SO many people nowadays are starting to show signs of gluten intolerance/allergy and this might be due to glyphosate rather than the gluten itself. I come from Italy and trust me when I tell you that everyone and their uncles eat a diet that is 99% gluten-based, however until a few years ago nobody ever had problems with it. I am starting to truly believe that we are slowly poisoning ourselves without realising it and then blaming the wrong culprits for it.
A government incentive is paid for out of tax payers pockets. It would literally mean taking money out of my pocket, spending most of it on social events, and then giving me the minority of it back.

Opting out would mean I was paying for other peoples parties when I can barely at this point cover medical expenses.

This remains a terrible idea.
Failed education and experience in my opinion. And it is true that something outrageous is easily found on the net.
That is a fair point. The current Golang implementation is the first one we did. Right now we are working on a new version of the Prisma Client. And the Golang version will get a lot of love over the coming weeks.
It's considered old-fashioned because what we're told about tends to be unsubstantiated pseudo science as often as not, with lots of contradictory advice and weak explanations.

I think everyone knows "quality food, exercise and sleep is good for you", but noone knows what that is for everyone. It varies from person to person, circumstance to circumstance, and the effects (good or bad) are hard to observe and correlate to choices, so it's hard to justify or blame them accurately. Especially when the accepted "facts" keep flip-flopping every 5-10 years (fats are bad! fats are good! sugar is bad! sugar is good! phasic sleep is good! no, you should sleep 8 hours in one go! you should always sleep in the middle of the night! no, it's possible daytime sleep is better for you!) At some point, it feels like if you just make random lifestyle choices, even a broken clock will be right twice a day?

Nutrition and sleep science are both still very loosey-goosey and the surprising thing to me is that we don't invest in significantly more in-depth research to find better metrics and measurements and baseline principles to teach kids.
