I'm using btrfs for a year on my laptop and there are no problems. I did some research before as I considered ZFS too but it seems most btrfs criticism is from old versions that did have bugs or using configurations that have known flaws (raid5/6, see [0]).

ZFS, as much as I like it, will unfortunately never be part of the kernel and users will constantly be put into this kind of situations: https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=ZFS-On-L...

"Night mode" is still useful with Dark Mode. In most applications Dark Mode still uses plenty blues and greens for accent colors and often strong whites for text colors. Even if fewer overall pixels are dedicated to those colors, it's still useful to color shift them away from blue in the evenings.
I would guess based on what I've read the absorption rate of energy is too fast with highly processed food, while the opposite, eating fibrous plant material seems to be very good for you as you have a far slower energy intake, in relative terms.
That is a deep and interesting question. I'm not sure I can give a great answer, but here are a few thoughts.

If we look at the file format itself (separate from the features/semantics of the linker and loader), I think ELF is simpler and more orthogonal. You can iterate over the section/segment tables of an ELF file without knowing anything about what each section/segment means. ELF nicely decouples the high-level "container" aspect of the file format from the lower-level semantics of how you interpret each section/segment in the linker and loader.

Mach on the other hand couples these two concepts together. The top-level table is an array of "load commands", each with its own type, but you can't even parse a load command until you know what type it is. Unlike ELF, the entries of this table do not have a generic format or even a consistent size. If you haven't written code to specifically recognize a given command type, all you can do as fallback behavior is skip it. To me ELF feels like a refactoring of Mach to make it a little more general and layered.

If we consider the actual semantics and features of the file formats, there are pros and cons to both. Mach-O has built-in support for fat (multi-architecture) binaries, which is kind of nifty, though I've never actually used it myself. Mach-O distinguishes between "dylib" and "bundle" for shared libraries -- for the life of me I can never remember the difference between these two -- whereas ELF just has one type of shared library. (https://docstore.mik.ua/orelly/unix3/mac/ch05_03.htm). The distinction seems to add complexity and I'm not sure I understand the benefit. Mach-O has two-level namespaces (dynamic symbols are resolved by both name and the library they come from) -- colliding symbols aren't generally a problem I've seen with ELF, but maybe it's useful in some cases. ELF makes symbol interpositioning easy with LD_PRELOAD, though Mach-O seems to have its own version of this that I've never tried: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12609728/changing-functi.... Overall I prefer ELF.

Timing 500000 iterations

Expected, right? First you called `coolsize_i(lrand48())` and then `coolsize_f(lrand48())`? In your results F should be I and I should be F.

In all your tests the F version is slower, as per my expectation.

==Which "deal" have we "signed" with North Korea? As far as I'm aware that negotiation is very far from over,==

We haven't signed a deal, that was something Trump promised at the second summit, but never delivered. Meanwhile, after the first summit on June 13, 2018, Trump said, “There is no longer a Nuclear Threat from North Korea.” [1] Was that ever true?

==although positive movement is evident==

Just last week, "North Korea fires two rounds of missiles, 2nd launch in a week, South Korea says" [2].

==Give credit where credit is due.==

What has North Korea signed or taken concrete actions on?

That is going to look like you fucked up horribly at great school and where going to get expelled but managed to avoid it by transfering.
You were able to stop eating things that made you feel badly. Why do you assume that others cannot reach the same conclusions given the same circumstances? Why do you believe that people must be forced to have fewer options?

Give them some credit. Regulation (threat of force) is not the answer, unless you consider yourself inherently superior to the next guy, who couldn’t possibly figure out what you managed to.
Gen IV you're right. Gen III (and "III+") reactors already bring significant safety changes ("passive nuclear safety", though that is a spectrum) and we've had a few of those running for a while now, the longest for 20+ years.

If contract liberty were guaranteed, unions would lose any utility they have to their members. Before labor laws were crafted, unions used their numerical advantage to intimidate companies and other workers into respecting their monopoly on a workforce. With labor laws, that monopoly is guaranteed by the law. Either way, unions only work with a force-backed monopoly. If a company can fire workers when they unionize or strike, they will.

A potentially viable free market alternative to unions is worker coops. They have the resource-pooling and sharing of unions, but without the coercion and rent-seeking.
It's outrageous. People think this is a good idea?
I agree completely, but I find that if I express less than absolute doctrinaire capitalist opinions on Hackernews, they get downvoted pretty rapidly. I am experimenting with posting non-doctrinaire capitalist opinions as questions about contradictions, like my question above, where I state that I'm a firm free market capitalist, just confused about why there's a contradiction in a government or corporation's actions.
There is no freedom from danger or "freedom to be safe". Therefore one party has sacrificed something of value to placate a sentimental imagining that amounts to nothing to the other side.

The freedom to walk down the street without risk of being shot is not sentimental. Presenting it as so is disingenuous.

Safety is a function of the inhabitants of an environment's ability to mitigate threats.

The evidence shows that isn't working.

>Some foods digest better than others. I can eat the same calories from potato chips a lentil dish but my digestion and laster on weight change will be very different.

The food that exits your body without being digested falls into the "calories out" category. "Calories in calories out" does indeed represent a simple thermodynamic truth, although unfortunately the "calories out" component can be rather difficult to determine in practice.
>we should ban all burning of fossil fuels today. Doing so would create all the incentives needed to answer the question of storage vs nuclear in a very short time,

That's not how public opinion, politics or economics works and if you're posting on HN you're educated enough to know better.

First question: we just "ban all burning of fossil fuels" what, globally? Is that going to be through a UN agreement or are you going to convince developing nations like China and India that they shouldn't use fossil fuels to catch up even though the rest of the world got to do so during the industrial revolution?

Second question: What's the solution for convincing the public to allow spent nuclear material in their backyard? Are we going door-to-door letting consumers know that they're dum-dum children and we know best, or do we just use some executive orders and imminent domain to force it down their throat?

Third question: Since we just stopped using all fossil fuels, how are we coming up with the electricity demands all the world over considering it takes a decade to build a nuclear power plant? Renewables?

Ok, so how are you going to generate sufficient electricity from renewable sources in dark, windless places WITHOUT using fossil fuels?

Fourth question: Are we supposed to use magic fairy dust to construct the materials needed for the nuclear power plants, solar panels and wind turbines? Because last time I checked you need quite a few plastics and petrochemicals to manufacture the electronics. Not to mention the massive amount of concrete needed in the construction of wind turbines and other facilities, which of course absorbs oxygen like a sponge.
>it said (limited remote with approval), making it sound like you had to negotiate for remote work

In all fairness, that's pretty common. For a lot of positions, companies are fine with proven employees working from home part of or most of the time. But that's not the same as signing off on 100% remote from Day 1. If that was the case here, I'm not surprised that they took your response as a polite "not interested" and moved on. In my somewhat limited experience, recruiters usually aren't that inclined to chase after people who have pretty much indicated they're not interested.
> By allowing salvagers to apply for a permit after collecting the animal, the law could give the poachers a ready-made excuse when caught with a contraband carcass: “I swear, officer, I just found it on the side of the road!”

The above is cited as a potential unintended consequence of legalizing roadkill salvage. Does anyone have a take on how likely that consequence would be to happen?
We need to talk about people who think the phrase 'we need to talk about...' is a fruitful way to start a conversation when "In my opinion" is probably more welcoming and conducive opening to a discussion that doesn't turn into ideological jousting right from the start.
Well, when it comes to guns you haven't traded away any freedoms, quite the opposite so far.
I never liked comparing air travel to car travel. It's just not a fair comparison.

Per mile danger is the most favorable towards airlines, but you could use per-journey and then airline travel is 3-4x more dangerous than cars.

The best you can do is either say "airline travel is plenty safe enough" or make direct comparisons like "traveling from NYC to LA via airline is safer than driving the same distance".
Running managed clients in a "compute at the edge" architecture that streams video to the end-user might be a good compromise.

Safe and Supported (tm)

Thoughts and Prayers (tm)

If I were writing or talking with care and attention specifically about this incident (as opposed to regurgitating a talking point/slogan) I might use the word supported, as in "we want our users to feel supported." (Better, I might actually eschew the weak and sniveling passive voice and say "we want to support our users" or even better yet, "we support our users." But obviously it's hard to be that direct and simple when you also exploit users.) Anyway, I would probably not spontaneously say "safe and supported," since she herself was the one who rejected safety. Even if (long shot) I decided to include the tangential idea of safety, I might say "supported and safe."

So yeah, to me, the phrase was jarring enough the first time I read it, but then a different person says the exact same phrase? It's like an assembly line. This poor girl is being treated as a "case" and callously lumped in with who-knows what other "cases" that fall under what's starting to sound like a branded initiative.

"Thank you for your inquiry regarding

"Zero cost" is a pet peeve of mine. While I concede that the concept is useful, there is always a cost somewhere.

A very concrete example of this was a C++ unit test suite where templates were used to generate several combinations of tasks/backends for verification. At one point our cloud builders ran out of memory. To avoid upgrading the instances at a €€€ cost from all the abstraction, I did some manual type erasure.

So, zero cost typically only concerns run time characteristics. Even then there are elusive pitfalls, like generated code size.

That way makes sense but I don't think the people who use that phrase mean it that way. Usually they seem to say "a calorie is a calorie no matter where it comes from".
Is it possible that ppl who work at facebook have ethics that merely differ from yours?
I don't think that's correct. For example if you go to a fast food joint you have high salt food that makes you thirsty and high sugar drinks to help it all go down. It's balanced in such a way to make you crave the other as you're seeking balance. Sodium benzoate in the soft drink will dry up your throat seconds after you swallow and make you want to drink even more to satisfy an unquenchable thirst.

Go instead to a quality French restaurant and the salt will be toned down in the dishes you eat. The wine will have low sugar (2g per liter) but the taste of the food will be amazing compared to what you get in a fast food joint. Because it will be nicely balanced you won't get thirsty and overdrink or try to balance the sweetness of what you drink with salty taste to contrast it.

> My example was that they can, without the authoritarian thought police that you seem to think is necessary.

I never said anything about an authoritarian thought police. Those are your words not mine.

> How much time do you spend socializing in those groups compared to church? You're not comparing like with like here, in my example we spend a comparable about of time together as you do at the church and got to know each other over many years. And yes, people can and do trust each other with their children.

The majority of my day is spent socializing here.

> It's important for kids to be exposed to many ideas within reason.

Indeed. I think it's important for children to be exposed to pretty much every idea, but I do not think we need to give up on the one they find safety in to do that.

> Have you ever wondered how many people there don't share your worldview but don't speak up for fear of being ostracized from the community aspects? I don't get the impression that you're a very tolerant bunch.

I feel this is the worst argument to levy against Catholicism in particular (which honestly, is the only group of this nature I'm familiar with; indeed, I do think certain other groups would be scarier, like the Neonazis or antifa), given the prevalence of cultural catholics, who -- despite not believing in the theology -- still see something of value. From a purely secular perspective, the church teaches a particular epistemology and metaphysics, which I'd reckon even the most agnostic (which I'll admit to being at one point) among the congregation share.
I don't think your whoops is that much of a whoops.

Many things tend to have natural portion sizes.

People will tend to go for 1 burger, or 1 chicken breast.

I suppose processed food would be more likely to have a natural portion size, could the weight loss then be explained by that portion size being too large, and the natural diet allowed people to better choose their own portion?
20 people for 14 days on one diet then 14 days on another. I don't see how this is a terribly illuminating study. This is not sufficient time or statistical sample to extrapolate to, well, really anything. What confounding factors were unrevealed by the small sample size? What structural problems are introduced by such a short time span?

We need to either collectively start ignoring these studies on somebody's 5 fraternity brothers over a weekend, or we need to start demanding more people, longer time horizons and better controls for confounding factors. I'm pretty disappointed to see NPR hocking this crap or Cell publishing it.
Carbs are not carbs (high vs low GI, for example), and fat is not fat (trans fats vs MCT, for example). Many other factors go into whether or not input calories are digested, whether or not input calories are stored (and whether or not as glycogen), and whether or not input calories end up as long-term fat.

It isn’t that simple.

That said, that’s absolutely no argument for regulation. People should be free to entirely destroy themselves seeking short-term dopamine hits—if they so choose. It is staunchly immoral to impede them.

You are implicitly comparing nuclear to the status quo.

I'm curious, how much have you read about the fossil fuel industry? Near misses or not, the actual death rate per unit of energy produced is far higher for fossil fuels than nuclear [1].

MaxRewards: Free app to manage credit cards and maximize rewards

My co-founder and I are reward/travel hackers, and we were frustrated with the existing tools to manage credit cards and credit card rewards. Apps like Mint lack rewards data and apps like AwardWallet lack spend or credit data. We also couldn't find any app that aggregated reward activity. The closest app was Birch Finance (bought by Even Financial last year, deprecated this year), but they were just estimating rewards. Because of how convoluted reward rules are, they were wrong a lot of the time.

We realized the main reason an app like what we wanted didn't exist was because data aggregators like Plaid and Yodlee do not pull reward data. So we built our own APIs. We're able to pull in spend, reward, credit, deals, and account setting information, and we currently have coverage of 6 issuers (AmEx, Barclays, BoA, Chase, Citi, and Discover). Capital One is coming soon. Those 7 issuers represent about 70% of all major credit cards in circulation.

In addition to aggregating information about all of your cards, MaxRewards also provides best wallet recommendations (i.e. best combination of cards, not just good cards to get) and best card recomendations (i.e. best card to use at a particular merchant).

We've been working on MaxRewards for about a year now, and we recently just released a public beta for iOS and Android. I'd love to get your thoughts and feedback so we can improve our app.

The part I find most interesting is about the strength of Xi's grip on China.

Either Xi has rejected this (at least for the moment), and has directed his puppets to "reject" it (to give the appearance of them stopping him from doing something he was reluctantly willing to do)...

Or Xi is not as firmly in total control of China as various events had led me to believe.

His thought is enshrined in the constitution. He's breaking precedent by remaining in charge for life, not just for ten years. But he can't approve a trade deal if others don't like it? Is this "you can be dictator as much as you please, but mess up the economy and you're gone"?

I also find it telling that "you can't keep taking our IP just because we're doing business" is termed "unequal". Interesting idea of "equality" there...
Just because a school has access to the information doesn't mean they have the expertise, time, or money, to turn that information into a number that can then be used in admissions. Admissions tests have existed for centuries the idea of the SAT is by having a single standard you can have one group of people make a better test for less money (and student time). This is very much the same thing, figuring out how to rank high schools and estimate adversity by street address for the whole nation is a HARD problem.
