We chose not to have kids. So we have a house full of cats instead. Obviously it's not the same but it's as close as we get. I second guess myself all the time and can't shake the feeling it was cruel to deprive my wife of the experience and not insist on it: She'd have been a fantastic mom. Like you I wonder if kids would have resulted in more happy times and the chance to look forward to things not work related.

I’m intrigued - can you share an example?
The gender gap is an IQ spread difference. Search "iq sexes" and look at the graphs. The average is the same (in most studies), but there are far more extremely dumb males and far more extremely intelligent males than females. By at least 10 to 1. This is also born out in the sciences, chess and other such forms of IQ type intelligence.

Females gain in social skills, with brain scans showing that the female brain is geared towards the social. We all know that there are far more awkward boys than awkward girls.

Here's a left-leaning newspaper reporting on that:

https://www.theguardian.com/science/2013/dec/02/men-women-br...

Don't forget to downvote me for telling you the truth.

After you've refused to believe that, search for "iq countries" and take in to mind two facts: that twin studies have proven that this is not environment or food, and that the US army would not accept candidates of an IQ of less than 83 however desperate they were. And now you also know why there is a diversity gap.

Take the red pill, and invest your money in businesses that don't dabble in fanciful equality dogmas.

Technical differences aside, why is it a good thing that the password manager shipped with Firefox isn't as good as most 3rd party password managers? It seems odd to prefer that software be bad.

Lockwise, which admittedly requires an add-on but integrates with the built-in password manager, I think is pretty on par with its contemporaries.

Thanks. I was unaware of this case.
It’s smart to optimize for the common case (no hardware changes) and dumb to slow it down significantly just for this flexibility. This can’t be a major factor, vendors aren’t that incompetent.

Herb Stutter mentioned once that an advantage of the STL is that it gets you good general-purpose performance initially, but tries to stay out of your way if you want to replace it for something more specialized.

I think you’re right about a codebase replacing parts of STL as necessary. One I see frequently is `std::array` being wrapped with iterators to be essentially a stack-allocated vector.
The runtime manipulates (external) state, the language remains pure.

It depends. After having gotten used to it, I can usually barely glance at an error and figure it out. I am basically satisfied with ghc errors messages, although they could be better. Sometimes it takes real head scratching. I think languages like Haskell give the compiler enough information to make insanely good error messages (At compile time mind you! Unlike python/javascript/etc). Elm apparently has some of the greatest error messages in the world. I think it is significantly better than C++ errors.

"The biggest issue which is inherent to the language is the learning curve"

I think of Rust as a "full-time" language - it doesn't lend itself to small, part-time use like languages such as Python or Ruby.

It is not an immediatley approachable language and can appear intimidating at first. It feels big, although this is subjective and for some a large language is not a problem.

I don't like the terse and cryptic syntax of Rust but this too is subjective and for many programmers it's something easily overcome. I do wonder though: what would people's perception (and takeup) of Rust have been like if the language had syntax closer to Ruby or Python?

It can get quite bad, yes. I find the simple cases pleasant at least. a -> Maybe b is the signature of a partial function. a -> State s b is a function that can mutate state, a -> [b] is a function that nondeterministically returns many results. I think these are clear. When you need to grab for multiples of them, it gets hairy. This is a problem the community acknowledges and is trying to make better.

Do they need to operate the cleaners manually? It seems like with just a couple of adjustments those cleaners could be automated and not requite a two people operating them. They could be scheduled to run once a day, every day, half an hour before the sun comes up. One sweep back and forth and the job is done. You just need to build a few more, give them a timer and two motors, and maybe make those solar panels rows longer so you need less cleaning robots. And that's it.

They could even be themselves solar powered, charging during the day when they are not working. And those people who operate them could instead go around after the "robots shift" to check for problems and fix them.

Am I vastly underestimating something here?

It’s not just in hard labor where employers may want people to work long hours. Regardless of what a lot of older people say, you can actually achieve more by working more hours, at least for short periods. And the younger you are the longer those periods can be.

And yes, commitment can also be relevant in itself, especially in a startup.

I had a previous career as a management consultant and we worked 60-80 hours every week. You can’t really do that if you have a family, at least not without making significant sacrifices. Those crazy hours are not just about producing more, it’s also about showing your dedication, paying your dues and showing the client that our people are really working hard for out fees. It wasn’t for me, but it’s naive and insular to claim that age is irrelevant. Sometimes it is, but most of the time it isn’t.
The same line of thinking applies to programming, of course.

In practice, however, the life of a programmer is usually split up into too many tiny async slices by email, chat, meetings, etc. to even attempt to enumerate here. It's so far the opposite extreme of what he describes here that it's like ironic comedy.

Makes me feel like I'm doing life all wrong.

The very existence of 'things of value' is what motivated people to build crawlers and search engines in the first place. There are many reasons to create 'a great piece of content', even if nobody else is likely to see it (e.g. for my personal reference, consolidating my understanding, just for fun, etc.). Filling it with fluff simply reduces its 'greatness'.

I think the problem is figuring out how we systematically identify things of value.

My personal feeling is that the solution lies in having good 'seed' URLs with which to build indexes. This might be done using curated lists, as a number of people here suggest, or perhaps through crawling and scoring the content.

What gets me is how long servers take to reach the bootloader from power on. Your average modern Dell/HP desktop or laptop is there within a second or two, Windows 10 and systemd-based Linux distros on SSD can be at the login prompt within 5 seconds total. I haven't touched a Mac in a long time but I'd bet they're no worse.

But a typical server BIOS takes 3-5 minutes do its thing. If you're lucky you might be able to disable enough stuff to shave off a minute. Insanity.
> Imperative programmers do not seem to have an issue with the idea of assignment, why are monads problematic?

This drive-by-question style makes it hard for me to know what your real point is. Are you saying that an assignment does the same thing as a monad? OK. That it is a monad? I doubt it; assignment doesn't have the right operators (you might argue that it does, but you'd have to really stretch it.) That it's just as simple and easy to understand as a monad? I call BS.

Not a big problem for technical users, but it's enough to dissuade many non-technical users. With vertical tabs being such a second class feature in this and other ways, consumers have not been given a fair opportunity to try both schemes and decide for themselves which they prefer. Thus the tyranny of horizontal tabs is perpetuated.

Who Is the Audience of Hacker News? (Poll)

Example:

>When Brandy Cooke dropped her friend off at a Myrtle Beach sports bar as a favor, drug enforcement agents swarmed her in the parking lot and found $4,670 in the car.

>Her friend was wanted in a drug distribution case, but Cooke wasn’t involved. She had no drugs and was never charged in the 2014 bust. Agents seized her money anyway.

>She worked as a waitress and carried cash because she didn’t have a checking account. She spent more than a year trying to get her money back.

Does the excuse pass the sniff test with anyone. A waitress carries her entire savings (she's doing well having savings!) on her to work every day? The idea that she was an accessory to something, like her friend passed her the money when they were stopped, seems much more believable to me??

It's kinda crazy that the police can take money and not return it when no crime is proven though, this seems to be a good TL;DR:

>Greenville attorney Jake Erwin said the overarching idea is that the money being seized is earnings from past drug sales, so it's fair game. “In theory, that makes a little bit of sense," he said. "The problem is that they don’t really have to prove that.”
Hmm, I don't think many have requested we sync user{Chrome,Content}.css. It's possible we'd accept a patch to sync them (I'd be for it, at least), but it's not trivial since we don't already have file syncing code.

Syncing them with dropbox and symlinking does sound to me to be the most reasonable.

Glad you're satisfied other than that!
Why do you think normal users are not Mozilla's "target user-base"?
In this sense even C programs are pure.
Both square and triangle waves contain only odd harmonics, with the high harmonics of the triangle wave rolling off faster. The sawtooth wave contains both odd and even harmonics. You can't have a wave with pure even harmonics because the fundamental is counted as an odd harmonic. If you half-wave rectify a sine wave you get only even harmonics above the fundamental, but to my ears this just sounds like two separate tones: the sine fundamental and a separate higher pitched odd-harmonic wave.
There was a hard drive on the market in the past for high-security use that had write-protect and an admin mode. Maybe a PIN or something to get to admin mode. Memory getting fuzzy on it. The normal usage would be read-only with you saving your data elsewhere or to a write-able partition that had nothing to do with read-only part for OS and apps. Go into admin mode to change those. Otherwise, your system is fresh every boot.

People do it with VM's, too. I think you were aiming for something physical with no extra software. That was closest thing I could think to it.

No, there’s certainly complications regardless of client. For example, verifying the reply email is actually from the user, handling top posting vs inline replies, etc. Lots of these systems work around issues by adding things like “REPLY BELOW THIS LINE” and instead of CCing multiple users, sending individual emails with their own personal reply-to addresses. All in all, I’d be happy to see that mess disappear, for things other than mailing lists where the actual entity is an email in the first place.
