It's completely unsolicited advice. The comment it is replying to is adding first-hand testimony to the discussion, not asking for suggestions for how to manage their own condition.

Mere mention of one's own medical situation should not generally be deemed to be open season on the entire internet tossing out medical suggestions, no matter how seemingly insightful. Most people with serious, long-standing conditions know a lot more about it than the average person on the street, have tried myriad approaches to treatment and get incredibly sick of having everyone "helpfully" toss suggestions at them at the mere mention of their diagnosis.

It's exhausting to have to say over and over "I've tried that or have a good reason why I am not doing that. I'm aware of those options. My short comment here is not remotely a comprehensive medical history."

Everyone puts it on the chronically ill person to be polite and respectful and make them feel good about wanting to help. But it's an incredibly negative experience to be constantly bombarded with such "help" and the implicit expectation that you should be politely appreciative of their good intentions.

I'm one of the people that downvoted it and that's why I did so. I'm chronically ill and also post as openly female here. I'm abundantly familiar with the desire to simply say "Oh, hey! I know something about that!" only to get a slew of advice I didn't ask for. The subjective experience of that is that the entire world clearly thinks you are an idiot who isn't trying hard enough and that's the only reason you can't fix your chronic, intractable problems for which the world has no real solutions or you would have already long ago sold your soul to the devil to finance the slam dunk answer.

Well, perhaps there could be. You just sound determined to never even countenance the possibility that things could be different.

Well it is a "real API", it's just not the one you want.

You can have the one you want but it's expensive: https://www.interactivebrokers.com/en/index.php?f=4988

You talk a lot about the "heavy graphical client", seemingly ignoring the Gateway, which is the canonical way to access the API.

Not the other user but FWIW, yes, I have. They work fine.
Also, semicolons in Rust have special semantics. In Rust, semicolons are delimiters rather than terminators, and function similar to how comma operators work in C++ (see https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/operator_other). While some may not like the implicit return behaviour in Rust, I think it has a genuine idiomatic meaning in Rust that cannot be easily replaced. Ending a function with a semicolon differentiates returning the last value from returning void (i.e. the empty tuple), so it does not seem like a good idea. (This is a proof of concept anyway it's not like I'm introducing a new language)

I don't really see that much of a difference to be honest. From a cynical perspective it just seems that Trump and Johnson are more honest (relative metric!!) and therefore feel more obnoxious. I don't know Johnson, but his demeanor seems calculated.

After a decade of hyper sensitive terror paranoia, subsequent charades and fake makeup-morality, it can actually feel refreshing. The honest statesman seems nearly deprecated today. This is important since I believe the success of both is a direct consequence of past governance.

But overall I don't think that much has really changed for most people. Maybe some offices took a little bit of damage, but I don't see that in a purely negative light. Civil liberties will probably suffer again, but that seems to be en vogue anyway.

'Markets' was a poor choice for the right hand side, as they are in fact bottom up. 'Naturally occurring structures are fractal, but human abstractions about them are square' would be much closer to the point, though not as catchy.
Teeworlds Web: Serverless Game (WebAssembly and WebRTC) Compiled Using Cheerp
You'll find it in tons of large-scale (e.g. governmental) decisions at the very least. "is it worth more to prevent X than to deal with the fallout" is a decision that has to be made at some point, and human life / injury are part of that equation.

So, in a way, yes. I do. So do lots of people when they go to urgent care rather than the ER, knowing that the ER could bankrupt them, and they'd rather risk the delay. I don't have numbers off the top of my head, but I don't think it's as uncommon as you seem to think it is.
Something I often see in discussions about GDPR on HN is that the law is vague. A hugely valuable comment on a previous GDPR discussion (which unfortunately I've been unable to track down) pointed out a marked difference in style between US and EU law. In the US, laws are usually very detailed and explicit about what will happen in all cases. If that's what someone is expecting, EU law is indeed very vague - because the underlying idea is that judges are trusted to interpret law in the context of constitutions, precedent and so on. EU citizens are much more used to this kind of language, so many of the discussions on here are people shouting past each other because there's a more fundamental issue about the way laws are phrased. If you're in the US and want to quibble with the language, please bear in mind the broader context of EU law. And if you're in the EU please bear in mind that people in the US are used to much more explicit legal language. If we all did that some of the discussions on HN about GDPR might be more meaningful.

The other thing that seems to happen a lot is that people are looking for a stick - any stick - to beat GDPR with. The current top-voted comment - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20279249 - is a prime example. These lists of fines often don't give context (which, to be clear, is a failing of the list too) and often when you dig into these things you'll find that the ruling is entirely sensible. People need to give a bit more credit to legal systems than to think "Someone was fined 2000 euros for using CC instead of BCC in his little mailing list newsletter of 150 people in Germany" could possible be true. If a fine seems ridiculous, do a bit of digging before you take a short summary at face value, and you won't be left with egg on your face when people point out what actually happened.
That, and NIH. I've literally last week told my project manager that the better business decision would be to buy the very software that I'm developing. There is more than enough work for me to do already. But the broader picture requires us to develop in-house.

I don't mind, I'm learning something new. I suppose that in itself adds value to the company.

That's going to apply to everyone. It's due to new EU regulations requiring documentation (PRIIPs) for retail EU residents.

I have misunderstood your original comment. You are indeed correct.

Edit: I just noticed that the function which maps x to 0 satisfies this condition as well, but isn't the exponential function if we consider 0 as part of the domain definition. It doesn't matter much for our discussion though.
Researchers could use the Swedish bio bank to get fairly accurate numbers as the database was established in 1975 and include all that was born between then and now.

As for the numbers in the study there is several factors that either increases or decreases the rate. Those that decrease the rate are studies that requiring informed consent, marriage, and high social economic status. For groups where all three is true you get rates around or below 1%, and for paternity testing labs which has the opposite of demographic you get around 20%. The true average is thus hard to establish as almost all existing studies has biased sampling from all of those factors.

our emotional response to seeing two wolves is probably about twice that of seeing one wolf. but response to seeing 100 wolves and 200 wolves is probably about the same. point being - there's plenty of logarithmic thinking in our brains, so we're not that linear.

i fail to come up with similar example for exponential thinking, we probably really can't comprehend that.

You can find loads of reasons for and against semantic whitespace out there. I created this project not because I think it's better or worse, but just that it's cool to offer such a variant. As mentioned in the README, I don't really recommend using this in serious projects, not because I am against semantic whitespcaes, but because multiple variants of the same language just sucks. (Yes, just like Python 2 vs Python 3) (I actually hate Python for lots of things, but nothing to do with the semantic whitespaces)
This would be a huge improvement for made-and-sold-in-Europe, and would at least make a sizable dent... but the rest of the internet still exists, and doesn't care where the botnet devices are made or installed, only that they exist.

Still, yea, this is exactly the kind of thing that needs to become commonplace. Hopefully it will be, though this is far from the first time that something like this has happened and here we still are.

I was about to say something similar. About half of the "dark patterns" on that site strike me as completely ordinary persuasion techniques. They're "dark" only if you think that the art of sales and marketing itself is "dark". (The other half are legitimately skeevy.)
> Impressive id went through development of Quake 3 with no version control.

I'd say that taking a backup of the code at the end of the day and sticking it all in a directory on a server somewhere constitutes version control. Especially as Id documented everything they did so thoroughly (based on Carmack's .plan files etc).

When SVN and Git came along they basically just streamlined and improved practices that a lot of devs were already following - and added some useful features like merging with proper conflict resolution and whatnot.

I suspect that it isn't just an "internet fact" (something made up and then copied so many times it starts to look more truthful because of how many times it is seen, because not all those sources can be wrong can they?).

The higher figures may well be real, but have been taken from biased sources. If the figures come from paternity testing lab results then you are automatically biasing the data towards those that are suspicious of a paternity matter due to other correlated factors. People with no such suspicions are excluded from the results because they don't take the tests, and they would pull the average figure down if they took part in a test (but why would they think to?).
Since men can father more children than women can bear, the numerical ratio of fathers to mothers is skewed in favor of mothers. Another way of looking at it is that people are more likely to share a father than a mother.

I remember using SVN in the early days and it was a huge pain. Some days it even seemed like it caused more problems than it solved. I don't think the situation really improved until Git came along and gave it a kick up the arse.

That said, modern SVN is nice to work with in my limited experience but I'm definitely firmly in the Git camp now.

I don't. I want X that I've just bought to do what I bought it for. Unless that was explicitly to "make me a better person", I don't want X or anyone selling X to go anywhere near that.

The culture of sales - which eventually shades into law and politics, because they're all based on the same psychology - is incredibly toxic. It's also noisy and expensive, culturally and ecologically.

I'd much rather have sales operate as customer solution generation - with "Sorry we can't do that for you" as an option - than customer predation.
I'm not familiar with POTS, but a quick google suggests that adding salt (and fluids) to the diet is a standard treatment.

I have a different condition where a high salt diet is a standard medical recommendation. I benefited from getting really picky about salt quality, though that's not anything doctors ever talked about.

I eschewed table salt in favor of sea salt containing a mix of natural minerals and micronutrients, not just sodium chloride.

I also generally recommend keeping a journal to track diet and symptoms in the face of any chronic condition.

Microsoft would need to be more like Microsoft is today. Probably more than Microsoft is today as well.

People forget Microsoft had a large chunk of the Smartphone market before the iPhone changed everything. Android adapted quickly, but Microsoft already had a number of products they needed to support. There is no shame in that - they did their best - and better competitors, such as Palm and their WebOS and Blackberry with their QNX-based BB10 failed as well.
Not sure, in my city (capital in western Europe) we have similar laws, both for division and mergers. They're built to protect the housing stock. Family homes can't be split up because it incentivises landlords to create many small units for young single tenants, students etc, while reducing homes available for families who need multiple rooms, who get pushed out the city. But similarly, you also can't just merge two homes, because it does the opposite, push out young/student/poor people and attract only families or those with the money to buy a larger unit.

Of course mergers/divisions can still happen, but it has to be approved by the municipality.

The popularity / trend of either mergers or divisions purely based on the market may change every five years or it may swing one way for decades. The point of these laws is for the municipality to exert control over this, because it's an elected body with normative ideas about what the city should look like and who should be able to live there.

A protective law for small units doesn't negate that at the same time there could be good reason to have a protective law for large units.

Second, my city doesn't just do it to control the overal housing stock. It also does it to steer individual neighbourhoods a certain way. It may be that the aggregate distribution of small and large units is completely fine in the city, but that one neighbourhood has only family units, and another only single-person units. It tends to be that, while some concentration/clustering of characteristics is helpful (e.g. a family vs a student neighbourhood), it's also healthy for a neighbourhood to maintain a bit of a mix. Healthy municipalities of highly livable cities often try to steer this mix, such that you don't end up with de facto segregation. Rich and poor, young and old, educated and uneducated, various ethnicities and trades all living together instead of segregated. This also means municipalities tend to want to create laws to protect a certain size of housing stock, could be small or large units, by requiring approval for both mergers and divisions, to protect certain citizen's groups. The fact laws for both mergers and divisions exist certainly isn't necessarily strange.

Anyway I'm relatively unfamiliar with SF, never lived there, so honestly I've got no clue what's actually happening here.
When you said "it would take decades", it sounded like you were making a technical argument. Now that you clarified that the only real obstacle is "lack of political will", we can sort of agree.

You're comparing urgent care to ER to somehow argue people view both DDoS and food poisoning in dollars? Just because some policymakers put rough numbers on the value of human life in the aggregate in very specific situations with very particular interpretations, you think people would support your cause of measuring everything in dollars and going around destroying their property because they're "just as dangerous as food poisoning"?

That's a misleading representation of the defense. "If I didn't do it, they would eventually have become a public nuisance in the form of nodes in a botnet" captures the supposed intent more fairly, and with the intent to target every known vector used by Mirai and Qbot it seems quite realistic that these systems would eventually become botnet nodes.

It's IMO somewhat comparable to culling high-risk farm animals to prevent widespread disease outbreaks.
Why do not we all act the same way when it comes to helping?
We could always ask a different question: what would it take for everyone to have a copy of the index? Humans can only produce new text-based content at a linear rate. If storage continues to grow at an exponential rate, eventually it becomes relatively cheap to hold a copy of the index.

Of course those assumptions may not be valid. Content may grow faster than linear. Content may not all be produced by humans. Storage won't grow exponentially forever. But good content probably grows linearly at most, and maybe even slower if old good content is more accessible. Already it's feasible to hold all of the English wikipedia on a phone. Doing the same for Internet content is certainly going to remain non-trivial for a while yet. But sometimes you have to ask the dumb questions...
