I’ve noticed when people go through very traumatic experiences (divorce, death) they sometimes experience a dramatic change in personality. It’s almost like the shock of the event kills your previous self.

This guy said he was bored of his current roles, but all said that probably wasn’t the actual issue. He was just looking for a way to cure his depression and ennui, and a change as radical as quitting his former life probably seemed appealing.

Maybe if he didn’t pick something with such a notoriously huge requirement of time he would have been better off. Like hell, even just being straight unemployed for a year and doing literally nothing might have been better. As of right now, since he’s not planning on being a practicing psychologist, it all seems like an enormous waste.
What you quote is not related at all to what Thunderbolt cables support beside Thunderbolt. It just states that you can use Thunderbolt to transmit DisplayPort signals. By that you're utilizing the Thunderbolt alternate mode to tunnel DisplayPort signals, instead of using the DisplayPort alternate mode [1]. Using Thunderbolt to transmit DisplayPort signals only works with devices which support Thunderbolt, not with screens supporting "just" DisplayPort. To make confusion even worse: All existing Thunderbolt controllers also support the DisplayPort alternate mode, so a lot of people who believe they're using Thunderbolt are probably just using the DisplayPort alternate mode instead. Afaik Thunderbolt cables usually support both, but I'm not sure if that's mandated somehow.

If you could figure out how to make wire, you could make a working electric motor.
Weird. One can hear arguments that it is the very fact that some people get paid lot as a proof that these people are more productive than others. But that argument seems to apply a bit selectively, and nurses and teachers somehow do not get more productive as their salaries increase.

It's almost like economics would be more like ideology than actual science.

And the very same applies to the pills and lotions that promise the same While most of them are NOT effective at all the few that are (specifically the prescription strenWhen considering your options know that there are both temporary and permanent methods that you can use to reduce man boobs. Your choice will depend on your needs and what you are willing to spend on these methods.

The first temporary way to reduce man boobs is to wear clothes that conceal them well. It is known that man breasts can be seen through your shirt so selecting the right clothes can save you the trouble. It may be tedious to have to try on every shirt before you buy it but in the long run all your clothes will help you mask your breasts.

Another temporary means is to wear a compression bra underneath your shirt. A compression bra or compression vest is a male garment that flattens your chest and hides your man boobs from view. If worn well you will feel comfortable and more confident.

If you are looking for a more permanent way of solving your chest problem you can see a doctor for treatment medication that will reduce the size of your breasts. The prescription is usually taken for a week before the results are visible and you can stop taking the medicine when you reach the size of your choice. There has been no report of boobs growing back after medication but to be on the safe side support the medication with a good diet.

Let's face it, vocabulary in main stream America is on the table with No chance of resuscitation. I mean according to popular news sites, there are probably 97 races on Earth now, and if one white gal thinks that immigration on the southern border should be enforced than she is a racist...

This NASA document (pages 62 onwards)[0] (1974) here gives a more in-depth description of NTO materials compatibility than the link above (1970)

Titanium is practically the only metal that can store NTO for long periods of time over a reasonably large temperature range. This does come at the expense of shock sensitivity (particularly after a soak/adsorb), but the industry has to use it anyway, while working to mitigate the shock problem.

One of the many unknown and unforseeable ways in which the climate crisis might play out is that different countries have different imperatives.

As temperatures rise, countries like Russia might well be net winners, as their frozen lands thaw out and become viable for agriculture.

When/if carbon capture becomes a reality, we'll have something of a global thermostat. What sort of wars will ensue to decide who gets to tweak the thermostat and whether it is turned up or down?
This is because the platform holders have trained the customers to value the games at $0. Even a game with an equivalent experience to PC or console will feel much more expensive on mobile at the same price.

>Moreover, by its very nature globalization enables regulatory arbitrage, so you can live in a country with relatively good EHS rules, and produce in a country with bad or no EHS rules.

It could be solved by making transitive EHS rules. I.e. rules that require the source also applying these rules. This is still some kind of rarity but they do exist. For instance for years it has been very difficult/impossible to import US meat into the EU because of that. (Mostly because of different antibiotics usage AFAIK.) To some degree such rules also exist in other industries. For example it makes little sense to import a cheaply produced car from a non-EU/non-US vendor into the EU (or probably US) because it won't match the safety regulations and would at least have to go through an expensive individual (re-)certification process, and might even need customizations for that. Of course nobody does this and people buy a cheap FIAT or VW instead.

Globalization is really nice I think because it connects countries and people through economy and thus also fostering peace. ;) It could become even much nicer by adapting regulations in the destination markets. Custom tariffs and local subsidies are another way to solve this but those are obviously much less fine-grained (25% on everything :)) and come from a time when there was no globalization. In fact the high EU subsidies on agricultural products still seem to be the reason that impede African countries to export agricultural products into the EU. On the other hand the African market is flooded with subsidised EU produce, making it hard to sell products for small farmers.

Probably markets could be far less distorted if the regulations in the industry nations would be modernized... I'm not in favour of any form of turbo capitalism but free markets cannot really be blamed for this because we don't have them anyways.

Speaking as someone who has laced motorcycle wheels (same construction as bycicle wheels, just with larger parts) it is very much a non-trivial task. Even given a premanufactured hub, rim, and a bag of spokes assembling a wheel is time consuming and easy to get wrong. Spokes have to be laced following the correct pattern, and it may not be obvious there is a mistake until ~80% of the spokes are installed. There are (at least on motorcycles with a drop-center rim) 4 different types of spokes that aren't that dissimilar from each other & are easily confused.

Having rewound electric motors w/ no repair manuals avaliable & laced rims w/ repair manuals & directions from the spoke manufacturer, rewinding an electric motor is far easier to successfully accomplish.
I would recommend either a change to lazy jit compilation, or dumping the jitted image, for the startup-time problem.
So? You assume that with the end of the day, the person gets magically reset, and will next day behave exactly as without the change, without the slightest difference? Despite having arrived a few seconds later, had different conversations because of that, went to bed slightly differently, had more and more diverging thought trains...?

In a more physicalist sense, you are somehow assuming that all the state that exists in her brain and body in general, all the synapses, electricity pulses, cells etc. have a chance to get back to the same state that it would have been without the change. I think that's pretty much impossible.

In fact, if anything, things will be even much more different the next day, and the further you go into the future, imposing more and more differences onto her own environment, rippling out exponentially.

Even more generally, every particle is subject to the same, with or without people in the equation, bounded only by the Light Cone emanating from the change (due to light speed being the limit on everything, including information; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_cone ).
Terraforming Mars with strange silica blanket could let plants thrive
I am impressed that China is making this effort, I wish we would do the same, but with an aim of building communities of plants and trees, not a monoculture.
Feels like you're assigning probabilities out of thin air. For example, not sure how hardware failures would wipe out the entire human race, or even cause the collapse of modern civilization across the planet - like every single piece of critical hardware in all major cities would somehow have to fail in a limited space of time. It would require controlled electricity (for lack of a better term) to spontaneously disappear - the laws of physics would have to change, or maybe every human to contract a virus that makes us allergic to being near large amounts of electricity. Not to mention there was nearly modern civilization before electronics were invented that we could fall back to.

Sounds like a cool premise for a novel, but something fanciful to the extreme.

The best solution is one that eliminates the need for a straw entirely.

Seattle mandates compostable straws or no straws. The rather innovative thing that Starbucks did was to create a lid that is essentially the adult version of a sippy cup. Now that I’ve experienced that, I much prefer it to straws.
Somewhat related - there was a study recently that proposed planting a trillion trees as a way to combat climate change:

I don’t disagree with you per se but wooden carts (with wooden wheels) has existed a long time before bicycles.

In some ways this is what has happened with the transfer of manufacturing to China. Building things requires building components, and their components, and their components, and so on down. That whole stack is withering in western democracies, so it’s incredibly difficult to “bring back” something like iPhone manufacturing without retaining a deep dependency on China anyway.

Does "Bayesian methods" mean anything specific? Parts of the core algorithms were written before I joined, and they are very improvised in the dog-in-a-lab-coat way. I haven't analysed them to see how closely they follow Bayes theorem and how strictly they define conjugate probabilities etc. (we are also heavily using simple empirical distributions), but the general idea of updating priors with new evidence is what it builds on, yes. I have a hard time imagining doing things any other way and still getting quality results, but that is probably a reflection on my shortcomings rather than a technical fact.

It seems that you're using HN primarily for political/ideological/national battle. Would you please not? We ban accounts that do that because it destroys the curiosity this site is supposed to be far. Admittedly there's not much curiosity in a highly charged thread like this one, but there's a difference between accounts that lapse occasionally into this and accounts that primarily propagate it.

Rust doesn't have anything for that. Partial move means that if a function only really need to access one field on the struct, it would only take ownership of that field, even though it took the full struct as an argument. So two functions could have ownership of different fields of the struct at the same time.

One thing with Rust is that it is really focused on performance and safety. It also cares about ergonomics, but not over performance and safety. Unfortunately, type explosion does make for faster code that can be validated more easily for safety by the compiler. That said, Rust has good support for vectors, those are used a lot, but are homogeneous. It also supports tuples with nice literal syntax and pattern matching on them. While it favours structs over maps, they are pretty lightweight compared to objects, so very small syntax to define them, you can create one out of another, and have a nice literal syntax to create them. Still, this is not the magical world of dynamic data-structures, so don't try and think you can just map/reduce over your structs and tuples, compose and restructure them freely, print out their content, or merge and split them, etc..
could information be processed faster than the processor running the simulation?

No. Whatever you do to process the information could always be done faster if you did it directly on a computer without the overhead of the simulation itself.
You can, it's just that the RC object itself cannot be implemented with the @live checking on. The RC object can then present itself with a @live compatible interface.

I wish USB-C mandated one cable. Just one. If you cut anything out of it, if you did anything out of spec, it's not a valid USB-C cable anymore. You either have all features, or no features.

There's nothing benefiting customers from this cable mess. It only enables dishonest businesses, as customers can't tell cables apart until they plug them in and try to use them.

> Go actually has a built-in "Go generate" command that will look for magic "//go:generate <command>" comments in the code and automatically run code generation based on them, although I'm not sure how ergonomic it is.

But it's still not run automatically at build time, you have to go out of your way to run `go generate`, which isn't gonna happen if you, as is customary, fetch and build third-party code with `go get`.

You're absolutely right. I'm usually careful about being blinded by current machines. And there are other ways like changing your return stack manually which could be used to loop.
