The flows are the easy part, the stocks are much harder.

1 partner enters the marriage with a $500K paid off house, the other enters with nothing. They divorce 20 years later and the house is appraised at $2.5M, should:

A: partner 1 receive $2.5M, partner 2 receive $0?

B: partner 1 receive $1.25M, partner 2 receive $1.25M?

C: partner 1 receive $1.5M, partner 2 receive $1M?
D: other?

How does this answer change if the house can be sold vs can’t be sold? How does this answer change if partner 1 comes into the marriage with a partially paid off mortgage and both contribute to mortgage payments afterwards? How does it change if the house is underwater instead?

The problem is all of the above models are legitimate models of how to split ownership, but they’re incompatible views. So you need to reach alignment at the start of the relationship over which model to use, otherwise what could have been an amicable parting ends in bitter recrimination.

> Obviously you have to use a command line mail client too

Not really. You could use a GUI client like Thunderbird to respond to emails pertaining to a particular commit as long as you're not actually trying to paste code in the composer. If you want to put something like a code snippet delimited by a "scissors line", then you'll need to use git format-patch and/or git send-email.

In other words, it doesn't matter what MUA (Mail User Agent) you use if you're just sending text, but if you are sending code in the form of a diff that someone will apply using git am, then you'll have to use a tool like git format-patch and git send-email to compose the message and send it.

Although they aren't a field as such (if I'm remembering well, because they don't form a division algebra), sedenions (16-tuples, and also further applications of the Cayley-Dickson construction) do have zero divisors (84 of them).

This makes giving any kind of sense to 0^(-1) even harder for me (when 0 is a sedenion).

Yeah, browsing a few if my own old questions always makes me think, "seriously? Was I that bad at Google-fu?" Though generally it boiled down to having a problem, and not knowing enough to even ask Google the right questions.

I wonder how many discussions and meeting were had on the subject of which character to use in those days.
Maybe I dreamed it but I could swear that I read that Gödel, Escher, Bach: An Eternal Golden Braid was typeset by Hofstadter in TeX. That, by itself, although fairly amazing, wasn't the most noteworthy thing to me but that he had first read—uploaded to his brain—all the docs for TeX before he wrote a single word and let the experience of using it call forth from memory the relevant documentation.
One of the many reasons for the “Trash-80” name.
Big companies are diverse. They have deep roots. Google and Microsoft can afford to indulge in spruce goose’s for years and it wouldn’t make a difference. As long has google has their search engine, they’re racking in money. Same with Office.

In a big company, you are a cog, a little pawn. It doesn’t matter though. They have a huge army and they can afford to burn people and it doesn’t make a dent. They can just outright buy people. Everyone can adjust their morals if they have extra zeroes at end of their pay check.
Not a lot, I've seen the odd thing on twitch, but it's definitely not common
To be honest, I've rarely seen this work well outside of Google.

Part of it is how the goals are translated. A business outcome trickles down to a specific technical one -- and a specific team and person -- which on the face of it makes sense, but it's surprising how often pursing that that derived outcome totally loses sight of the big picture.

It's similarly hard to map backwards, which can lead to a lot of the company feeling "mission accomplished", when the objective was still a total miss. That's a painful disconnect to have happen.
In theory, your non-marketable limit orders show up in the order book at whatever exchange they got routed to.

Definitely some form of Alcoholism, but not crippling and not expensive since I can tolerate the $15 1.75l vodka, mixed with water. Never (mostly) during work or times I expect to drive. But most days, for the past 20 years, from 5PM to 11:30PM I have a strong drink on hand. The big bottle last only 3 days. I only get bad hangovers once in a while, though there's no doubt the habit slows me down during the day. And I'm a huggy drunk, not angry. In fact, people seem to prefer tipsy me over sober me. I'm sure it has damaged my body (but who goes to the doctor?) and I felt way better in general the week I was off it. I quit Ultima Online (decades ago), smoking (years ago), and caffeine (months ago) without assistance, I'm pretty sure I can get this figured out. Maybe abstaining from things can be my new addiction :)
I use Plain TeX with .dvi output. One advantage is that it can use the DVI format, which is in many ways much better than PDF for many things. (You can also convert DVI to PDF and to other formats; I wrote a program to convert DVI to PBM (without using PostScript), and use that to print out the documents (through foo2zjs, which converts the PBM into the format needed by the printer).)

Are you implying if I go look at any python question from 8+ years ago it will be correctly tagged as not just python but also the correct python subversion?

Part of the problem is that at the time of the question the tags might be entirely sufficient but become less so as the the subject changes over time and new tags are available.
Humanity currently possesses the capability to provide everyone their basic human needs (food, safe water, housing, sanitation, essential healthcare) and hunan rights, but not the willingness. People die preventable deaths because they lack access to basic, affordable healthcare while other people are getting plastic surgery.

It would seem to me that they don't, because it disperses the light without altering its frequency/wavelength, but I don't really know. I also don't know how well it can disperse electromagnetics other than light, though.
The killer summary surprised me:

“Meanwhile, the fundamental problem with this laptop remains—if the slightest thing ever goes wrong, you’ll be replacing half the machine. Even if the keyboard is perfect this time, you’re taking a gamble on everything else. Our advice? Save your money.”

Ouch!
It might be partly the other direction, too.
A fun little thing to do if you want to play around with the new release: install prometheus, prometheus node_exporter, grafana, and grab the node_exporter full dashboard from the grafana site. In like 10 minutes you've got a pretty cool system info dashboard for your laptop :).
> DVI format, which is in many ways much better than PDF for many things

Would you mind listing a few? I ask because, if my memory serves correctly, the only thing DVI ever accomplished for me was to make me want to poke my eyes out.
I've always wondered if it was just talent or you know how to learn really well.

Any strategies you employ when it comes to reading? Does it come down to mostly practice or can you read a whitepaper once and implement it the following day? How much of the effort is just memorization?

I've been programming since elementary school, always curious what other people do to quickly pick up engineering.
Interestingly, 7z is also of Russian origin (Igor Pavlov), and a lot of data compression research comes from there too --- possibly a legacy started by Markov.
Ah yes, all of the students in GP's example need merely need to learn how to provision, DNS-associate, and maintain a server, then they can store their Git repositories on it. That will surely not add any undue overhead for them.

Its actually pretty hard for even humans to eyeball a graph and figure it out. For example, the wiki article on the peterson graph (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petersen_graph) has a few drawings that you cant easily say are the same graph.
A lot of engineers talk about how business people should listen to engineers.

A lot fewer engineers talk about how they like to listen to business people.

Yeah there's nothing wrong with using sequential integer IDs in the database. But objects should be assigned random unique IDs as well, which is how they are referenced by and presented to the outside world. The random ID is what is presented to the frontend/user. I'm not sure what the issue you had with generating random integers for primary keys was, it seems like that should work fine. Is it because the index has to be rebuilt when an value is inserted into the middle of the ordered sequence?
I use an old school brokerage and haven't paid trading fees in many years, and most of the ancillary fees have also evaporated over time. The race to the bottom was going on long before Robinhood.

But the OP's point is correct: even with trading fees, the cost is below the noise floor. Brokerages can make quite a bit of money off of how they structure trade execution, so the top-line trade cost isn't everything.
> The whole reason stocks have fundamental value in the first place is because they're claims on the future profits of the company.

If earnings are low then so is the free cash flow too. In which case most of these companies are borrowing cash to pay out dividends which is not a good sign.

Similarly, buybacks are supposed to be value accretive. Paying for it using borrowed cash is not adding value. Additionally, buying back a stock which is trading well over its fundamental value is same as overpriced acquisition.
Even market price trades still require a counterparty’s inverse order to execute the trade against. Thus the exchange that an order is routed to affects execution price because it depends on the available orders on the exchange, on both sides of the transaction: when and what price your order executed depends on both (e.g. if you are buying) orders placed by other buyers on the same exchange (higher bids will execute first) and the volume of sellers (if your buy order completely fills a sell order at a given price, the price will slip against you because your order will partially fill at the next higher priced sell order).

To avoid this effect one can use a limit order instead of a market order (you are setting the price instead of ‘taking’ the market price), but then it may take longer for your order to execute, and it may not execute at all if the price moves away from your limit price.
> Is it as easy to export tickets from Sourcehut?

I know Drew is working on a few email things for the `todo` section of the site. Opening tickets, and responding via email.

> Can I participate in tickets on Sourcehut without creating an account?

Depends. I set up most of my public ones to allow anonymous users to contribute, but it's up to the owner to decide whether they want that or not.
There are other ways to deal with that, like physical conditioning. Ergonomic keyboards don't cut it when you need to carry a laptop.
It is much simpler, and many kind of post-processing can be done on it better too, and also you can compile the fonts per printer (DVI doesn't actually care about the font glyphs at all, and does not require that it is even a font glyph as is normally considered) as needed. If you have a printer that implements it, you could even do such things as cutting holes in pages, printing raised or engraved text, invisible ink, etc, without causing problems with software that does not support these things.
I'm usually an uncooperative bastard at times like this. I ask them what their purpose is in retaining a copy of my identity document, and I ask for their privacy policy. When I'm travelling for work and a hotel asks I simply say no, and remind them I can lodge a complaint with our corporate travel provider that will have them delisted for future business; usually they come to their senses. For overseas travel (where they often have to fax your passport to the police) I ask for the photocopy back when I check out; since these documents are lost/misfiled regularly the desk clerk usually complies. Always try for point-in-time ID verification rather than retention.

If they build the maglev network as fast as the previous generation of fast trains...
I got a similar sinking feeling just a few days ago right after booking a flight through Kayak. It was a too-good-to-be-true rate on a flight from Boston to Barcelona with a company called Vayama. Vayama runs lots of little scams, like selling airline tickets before actually buying them from the airline, and cancelling the order if the flight fills up or they can't purchase them profitably. A quick web search shows hundreds (thousands?) of complaints against Vayama, but Kayak keeps pimping them.

Some people seem to say that using Vayama worked out for them, but with my trip 3 weeks away still I'm pretty on edge.

We're supposed to learn that Kayak is pants now, and they should feel bad.
But why it disperses? Due to difference of wavelength of the constituents they are refracted at different angles.

If this holds for all wavelengths then it's seems logical to assume that it can also create electro magnetic waves if and only if the original wave entering prism had some component of this.

Maybe I am wrong I don't know.

I grew up with Celsius and am still comfortable with it, but I'm getting used to Fahrenheit now and really do like it. Celsius values are so close in daily life, that it's not that helpful. The difference between 15C and 18C in Fahrenheit is 59F and 64. Generally, it feels nice to say the temperature is in the 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s or 90s instead of 10, 16, 21, 27, 32. In the end it's easy to get used to either scale if you're immersed in that culture. I see no need for the US to change that. Same for the other imperial unites. They're practical for their purposes and in science everyone's using SI, so no problem there.
If the cover chart is anything to go by the variance in any time period about the mean is immense.

I could believe there is a trend but at any point in time that looks like the last and next 100 years is almost entirely reflected in contemporary state.

The paucity of ancient references also stood out in that.
For x⋅0=a (i.e. 1/0) no number fits. It's like a database search that finds nothing. It's a null. A point that is not in the set.

For x⋅0=0 (i.e. 0/0) any number fits. Is there such a thing as an anti-null? In the infinite set, 0/0 is infinite.

If a/0 isn't any number if you exclude 0, then a/0 should be zero. Tada!

...of course zero wasn't in the set, which makes it a null
Rotate maybe, not wipe. As far as I'm aware for most webservers you have to tell it to rotate the logs based on some criteria, otherwise it just keeps appending.

If debugging is turned off it's entirely possible that they have been appending lines to the same log file for the last 20 years and haven't run out of disk space which would cause them to notice. Say 200 bytes in the log per request, and even averaging 10000 (probably more than they get) requests per day, in 20 years that's only 13GB.

It's also entirely possible they turned logging off or redirected to /dev/null in order to "be more efficient".
There is: nominal processing fee.
This is not a good sign. One of the important things for companies to do is to turn the total earnings into a stable flow of cash.

But if cash outflow is larger than inflow then companies are mostly sitting on negative cash flow. The difference is being covered up by borrowing at low rates. These loans put strain on the future cash flow. Without any reserves to fall back on there might come a time when these companies will be strapped for cash.
Yes, that makes sense to me, it does seems logical. But white light is light, not radio, I think. Radio and light is both electromagnetic, but different frequency.

But I don't know how opaque it may be to some wave lengths.
I love the idea of being able to use it, but both times I attempted to learn it, I lost motivation pretty quickly. It takes a lot of effort and there's no payoff while you're learning and likely not after either unless you get heavily involved with the radio community.

Code folding is awesome for Lisp. Once a function is working, you rarely have to look at it again. Seeing just the first part, eg: +(defun squared (x) tells just about everything you need to know for reference. If not, the documentation string can easily start on that line, too.

Of course a fold that pops up the documentation string on mouse-over would be the cream on top.

I agree, and is much of what I try to design by computer design (although there is ways to improve the performance (in different ways than what is common now; some of it is strange and may have some unusual (but still simple) features), and there is other improvements from the old designs too, while still having a lot of the features of the older designs). It doesn't use superscalar, out of order execution, automatic caching (there is a cache but it must be programmed explicitly, and otherwise it does nothing), and all of that mess.

Ask HN: Do you keep a personal knowledge repository?
And if so, which software do you use? I'm fascinated by storing things that I learn outside of my own brain. Ideally I'd love to create my own mini intranet of information, basically a personal wiki, that I can go to first before having to Google things, especially for my field of study.

I've looked into various Wiki packages but none quite seem to offer what I'm looking for (Mac, no need for a webserver, cross device functionality, math markup, searchability, tags)

If you do keep a personal knowledge repository, can you please describe your workflow for using and maintaining one for all the new knowledge you acquire?
If you truly are an entrepreneur, you will be utterly miserable doing anything else.

There is a knowing.
