I agree and I have a story to add to this.

Despite there being a couple ways to spell my first name and literally dozens of ways to spell my last name, I share the same name as a rock star of similar age as myself down to the letter.

While I do understand I didn't necessarily need a ".com" TLD URL and that I had other TLD options, it was the first availability I checked for obvious reasons; this is how I discovered my semi-famed name-double. I eventually went with a ".net" TLD URL of my name and it's turned out alright so far -- and it makes perfect sense to me that my alternate actually should have the ".com" version instead of myself. I'm content, likely even happy, with how things turned out.

Which is why I pointed out the resistance of the cable relative to the other components. It's not where you're going to get resistive heating unless it's a full short and that's the dominant resistor. You may know, but USB-PD has a pretty smart design here that makes it harder for such a condition to occur.

I refers to the 5/20V fear only in terms of how safe I feel about handling such voltages.
I totally agree with this. While running and maintaining your own website isn't trivial enough yet that _anybody_ can just up and do it, it's definitely something most anyone willing to spend a weekend can pick up and learn, with maybe a bit of help.

Been considering moving towards a static site generator setup myself, and is currently looking at Gatsby.

I'm curious though --- barring preference for language, which generator would you recommend? I keep hearing about Jekyll, Hugo, Gatsby, etc. but haven't really come across any objective comparisons between options.

Maybe in the US it's simpler, but recently I had to do a chargeback on my Polish credit card and first of all I couldn't even initiate one until the transaction was fully processed(while it was only showing as "pending" on my account), so that took 3 days, then I could file a chargeback by making a complaint about a transaction, which I was then told would be "reviewed in no more than 2 weeks" and that is genuinely what happened - the transaction was reversed and the money returned but it took the full 2 weeks from the day I requested a chargeback.

The land requirements for renewable energy are a tiny fraction of that used for farming, density is not a concern.

Why would you think recycling turbines or panels or inverters is going to be onerous? The quantity of materials, and the nature of the materials do not seem in the least bit onerous.

A fun thing I’ve been putting together is growing Oyster mushrooms on wood. There’s actually a lot that goes into getting it to work. The mycelium has to fully inhabit the log before it can produce fruit. That can take 6-12 months. That, and the log has to stay very moist so you have to soak it for awhile before you can put the plugs of mycelium into the wood. Then you seal it with a wax and water it every couple of days. Apparently, a single piece of wood can fruit multiple times.

Once every two years it's kind of fun. And playing the odds, well sure probabilities are low, buts that's what is to understand about it. By no means as complex as, say, blackjack. And I like to have at least a slight idea of what I'm getting into. Blackjack, no chance. Roulette, at least I know the odds up front whatever they may be.

And yes, the other people are the sometimes the funniest part. And the saddest. Seeing people using what is my month salary in around two hours... On the other hand playing only one or two bucks per game and others reaction is fun.

I run my own website (https://saagarjha.com, naturally) but I can't guarantee either of these. My host (GitHub Pages) can take down my content at any time if I annoy them enough, and once I make something public I don't suffer from the misconception that I can make it private again. I can, however, rehost my content (crucially, at the same "location"), which I think is nearly good enough.

If you're implementing something new, or a new interface, or basically anything interesting, it's going to require focus. I don't know how you can add anything of real value without a high level of focus.
Lawmakers are purposefully vague because judges can decipher what the spirit of the law is and fine corporations or condone specific use cases when they are brought up in court.

That leads to the judicial branch actually making the law and not having a consistent set of rules depending on who the judge is.
I did not buy the official cover, but a cheap top/bottom (but not side) acrylic case that included a fan, and also applied 3 heat sinks which came in the basic kit that came with the pi from canakit. It idles at 47°C and can browse "new reddit" at 59°C. A samba share its hosting causes it to run at 59°C during file transfers to an external SATA drive connected to the USB 3 port. I'm pretty happy with it considering all the complaints about heat issues. Only issue I've had so far is that you cannot reliably power more than one external hard drive with this. A second one will need its own power adapter.

There was a firmware update, so make sure you applied that. Might help bring the temps down a bit.
Between distro releases, if you want to apply security patches, you need to recompile from source, because there are no binary releases.

> Love and knowledge, so far as they were possible, led upward toward the heavens. But always pity brought me back to earth. Echoes of cries of pain reverberate in my heart. Children in famine, victims tortured by oppressors, helpless old people a burden to their sons, and the whole world of loneliness, poverty, and pain make a mockery of what human life should be. I long to alleviate this evil, but I cannot, and I too suffer.

Personally, what additional happiness I could get from not suffering, because of the things he mentions and more, I wouldn't want. That pain is a signal, and to bear it, to use it, rather than numb it or dismiss it as mere party pooping is one of the skills of life IMO.

There's a weird bug in human psychology where anything we can easily do ourselves is considered "easy" in an absolute sense, even if we've literally spend years or even decades acquiring the skills that make it so easy. No patch is forthcoming and the issue has been marked WONTFIX in the tracker.
In the list of eligible models:

"MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2019, Four Thunderbolt 3 Ports)"

I'm certain they previously would have specified that model with "Touchbar" rather than the number of thunderbolt ports...

After 4 years, if you then pay to have the keyboard replaced, do you get an additional 4 year warranty on the keyboard?

In attempting to defend Color blind people, you go too far in painting them as helpless. The use of color to distinguish thing is not in-and-of-itself exclusionary. Color blind people are still perfectly capable of distinguishing shades.

As long as you use fairly different shades of red and green, they can still match the cable to its matching color shaded port. Much UI accessibility is based on this fact.

"Your using the search function doesn't seem to have been appropriate to the task"

The search function is unbiased, interpretation is.

I appreciate your breakdown of how you delve into judging a author's intent factoring in the (assumed) writing skill but this is not the content of your comment I was referring to, rather:

"In re-reading the article though he _only seems to specify gender when it's a woman_. Perhaps he really disliked this woman or he has some bias he isn't aware of."

The _noted_ section is what I was describing as factually false and why I said maybe your delving into the author's work was biased. The search function reveals " he ", " him ", & " his " to be used more than " she ", " her ", an " hers ". In diving into interpretation it seems to be ignored that 2 paragraphs down the author resents a micromanaging male director, if this had contained "her" instead of "him" would it be interpreted total condemnation rather than chance? Why is this not also an emotional reaction and if so why does it matter less?

I.e. the article is balanced in calling out gender overall (as shown by word frequency) and the author seems to dislike people based on what they did (as seen by reviewing the sections called out) so the only way bias in re-reading can be called out here is if you're searching for it and ignoring what doesn't match.

I had a contract gig over the past two years that pretty much equalled out to 6 hours/day.

I'm pretty sure I was within 10% of my full-time productivity. If I wasn't being productive, I simply went and did something else for a bit.
This was the most useful comment, should be at the top.

I don't do hiring, but I can see your website being an item in the "plus" column if I was going to pick whether to hire you or not.
You could argue moving to more workable hours with that line of thinking then.
Cooperation is the right general default. But:

* You have to negotiate what cooperation means.
And this essentially defines the boundaries of a community.

* It's disastrous if "cooperate" is your only approach, because even a fraction of defectors choosing a predatory approach can become a significant problem.

> Stop with the gatekeeping BS, please. You don't get to say what hacker culture is or who belongs in it.

I'm not gatekeeping here, only suggesting that people behave nicely in other peoples houses so to speak.

From the link I pasted it is quite clear what the GIMP maintainers used to think about this. If they reconsider I'm fine with that as well, I'm not attached to the name. But I am fed up with people coming to invade others cultures for the sake of making them acceptable to a certain subset of what seems to be extremely privileged people.
My experience is similar to yours. I used the desktop version in college. I was a big fan. I do not pay for the current version.
There is nothing inherently wrong with gatekeeping so long as you're not violating human rights in the process.
Ur a pussy, prolly wrong job for you if you're feeling "physical pain" after 8 hours.

You need to be in the office for at least 8 hours to have any shot at getting 6 hours of work done, due to context switching, ramp up, meetings, etc.
And 8 hours is short, I would fire an engineer on my team if they were only putting in that much. I expect 10 - 11 on average, and that's not burn out pace, I've been doing 12 - 14 for 10 years, because I enjoy my job and I like winning.

TL;DR: you're a 0x programmer and you should go try any kind of physical labor for 8 hours before you whine about the incredible anguish you feel sitting down and (gasp) thinking for a third of your day. Pussy
I think HN even moreso underestimates how many people want to bother. Running my own blog would be just one more spinning plate for me. I have enough of those.
With wind and solar we are capturing leftover energy from the sun's fusion; the internal amount of storage is not relevant.

With fossil fuels, we are simply using the stored energy from past fusion.

It's likely that we will start creating synthetic fuels from the electricity that comes from wind and solar, if you want a dense storage mechanism for keeping fuel close by for mobile applications or isolated sites.

There's nothing magical about nuclear, it's just a heat source. Unfortunately it's difficult to transmit heat long distances.

Recently had a terrible experience with PP Dispute process.

1 - Bought tickets for a show via twickets.live
2 - Seller (supposedly) sent a transfer request to me via the ticketmaster portal.
3 - I received, nothing, tried to contact seller, got no reply till after event.
4 - Open a dispute as I paid for something and received nothing.
5 - PP sides with the buyer citing ‘evidence’ the tickets were sent to me
6 - PP won’t share ‘evidence’ with me, wont reopen my dispute, no option to create a new one.

Now I’m down a wad of cash, didn’t go to the show, and got no opportunity to do anything about it. Closed my account immediately afterwards.

I had heard of it in the past but I didn't realize it was in a finished state and keeping pace with recent R versions. I'll read up on it, thank you.

Edit: looks like it's still a full major version behind? To be fair, there weren't many significant changes between R 2.x and 3.x.

Sure, there's a difference between complacency and gratitude.
In the short term I'm sure they will install a lot of Chinese solar panels. But longer term it would be cool to build one or more massive solar plants in the Sahara to supply Europe and nearby countries via high voltage cables. You might also be able to re green the land in the shade under them. Just covering half of Niger with panels could potentially power the world.
no one works in a vacuum. people need to communicate and collaborate, even when the work is prescriptive. core hours requirements stem from making sure that there are times when everyone can have rich, immediate interactions. not from childish supervision.
I imagine people who can read the paywalled article (I cannot, for this particular one) have an interest in sharing and seeing the article regardless of the quality of the discussion in the comments here.
I teach and consult on R and data science. I had the privilege of learning R from one of R's core developers. My students often ask why I don't use the Tidyverse. The answer is because I don't need to - I can do everything the Tidyverse does and so much more in base R.

This article only briefly touches on what I think is the biggest issue with the Tidyverse. The Tidyverse is incredibly limiting. The "tidy" workflow hides many details of the language, which leads many users to think all data has to be in a tidy "data.frame" (or now tibble) and organized just so. The functions the Tidyverse authors have chosen to implement are seen as the limits of R's capabilities. Every data problem has to be forced into the Tidyverse box (or it is impossible). I cannot tell you how many Tidyverse scripts I have seen where 90% of the operations are munging the data into the correct format for the Tidyverse functions, when the original data can be handled with a single base R function (e.g. lapply). Most Tidyverse users accept this as just the way R is.

Most R users who only learn the Tidyverse never hit its limits, and for them the Tidyverse is perfectly OK. Those that do either resign themselves to the perceived limits of R, or (hopefully) start learning some base R. One friend who took the latter path once exclaimed to me "Logical subsetting is amazing!?!" - this is a foundation piece of the language. That she went 2+ years in the "Tidyverse" without even knowing it was an option was eye opening to me.

To its credit, the Tidyverse is empowering - with very little programming knowledge a beginner can do a lot of data science. However, the majority of these people get stuck as "expert beginners". Some of these become fierce advocates of the Tidyverse without truly understanding base R. Meanwhile, none of the truly advanced R users I encounter use the Tidyverse.

You use colors that the largest number of people can distinguish between.

At some point there will always be someone who something doesn't work for. You suggest using symbols, but what about people who are completely blind?

So you use something like a combination of color and braille, and then the rare person who is monochromatic can use the same solution as someone who is completely blind.

Unused imports that are imported solely for side effects should be imported this way to avoid that problem:

import (

)

Given that this is the only way to have unused imports with mainline Go — in other words, it's impossible to accidentally remove one once it's been declared this way — I'm not sure I see what the argument is.

--The file itself is a Lua-based Backdoor, we named it Godlua Backdoor as the Lua byte-code file loaded by this sample has a magic number of “God”

--Godlua Backdoor has a redundant communication mechanism for Command and Control [C2] connection, a combination of hardcoded dns name, Pastebin.com, GitHub.com as well as DNS TXT are used to store the C2 address, which is not something we see often. At the same time, it uses HTTPS to download Lua byte-code files, and uses DNS over HTTPS to get the C2 name to ensure secure communication between the bots, the Web Server and the C2.

There's a funny/weird dynamic with this. We all need to appear like we work as much as everyone else appears to. Looks like your teammate puts in 9 hours per day? Well you do too. Otherwise you'll look like a slacker, even though both of you get five or six hours of work done. If everyone did it, it'd be fine and you'd both get hours of time back to do anything else.

What's weird is that this dynamic affects workplaces too. If you are in an org that actually lets people work great flexible hours you won't advertise it too much, for fear of attracting workers whose primary goal is to slack, or getting a reputation an org of slackers. And if you're a job hunter who cares about this, you can't really dig in to asking about the hours everyone is expected to work for fear of being perceived as a slacker.

Nobody can be open about it (orgs or teammates or applicants) and thus the problem persists.
