This could have to do with the fact that you were at a corner store, rather than an actual grocery store. I mostly buy junk food at corner stores too, because I buy groceries at the grocery store.
That’s an impressively difficult number, but I wonder where you got it from? What is a “time”? A second in dangerous conditions? A trip? How do you get a hundred million iterations of anything at human driving scale?
Why, is it illegal for them to make tax filing easier (if it is, did TurboTax lobby for it?)

Rockwool is the most popular product, so you'll see a lot of videos (like above) featuring them, but I'm sure there are others.

Of course an extinguisher system can also be added, but a bunch of batts could be done quickly and inexpensively for a quick win.

If you used signify/minisign to do the same thing, your workflow would be simpler, your keys shorter, and your entire stack more secure. Since clients are individually verifying your key, none of PGP's identity goo is even ostensibly winning you anything. Your context isn't the issue.
That's kinda what I'm trying to do here. Ballista is definitely very much inspired by Apache Spark but not a direct port. Spark has some design choices that were very much driven from being a JVM-first platform e.g. the way lambdas are serialized. When I eventually get to support custom user code in distributed execution I don't want it to be limited to Rust, but that's a topic for another blog post later this year.
Wouldn't WASM help here?

One could choose a popular dev target like Ubuntu LTS and seek to comprehend the relevant optimization behavior for a popular compiler like GCC.

Now part b above is reduced to a single environment to generate a binary for all archs where WASM will run.
If you don't patent it, then how will anyone know what exactly it is that you're doing and how? So then how can they copy?
>1) Running out of "stuff" to do. Maybe it's because it's been literal years since I've watched scheduled programming and don't understand the habits involved anymore, but I can't understand this idea of not knowing what to do with free time.

I'm jealous. I usually pop open my laptop and burn through the hours until it's time to sleep. I wish I knew what to do with my free time more often.

2) How do people just "go to bed" early because they get bored? I'm actually jealous of that idea. If I just decided to "go to bed" early, it would most likely involve me staring at either the ceiling, my phone, or a book for a few hours.

This one I empathize with 100%.

Parrotron: New Research into Improving Verbal Communication for People With
I find the Hadoop platform to be heavyweight and difficult to manage. Its design came from the original GFS and MapReduce papers, and was perhaps not great to begin with (name nodes failover, etc.).

I would like to see the industry move away from the JVM to less memory-hungry, AOT-compiled languages. Too much of the Hadoop world simply assumes that you'll be using a JVM language, and don't provide non-JVM APIs at all. It's been a while since I looked, but I think Apex and Flink were basically useless if you didn't use a JVM language or Python.

Of all the Apache projects related to Hadoop, I believe Beam is the only one that has Go support (for implementing processing logic), for example.
Actually, power lines aren't necessarily clean because they have significant losses, and would cause more emissions if they carried FF-generated electricity thousands of miles (losses as high as 60%). A better strategy is generating as close to consumption as possible, e.g., solar/wind/etc. right next to consumption to minimize losses.
You just captured my feelings exactly. As I get older it's not about finding something to do - it's about filtering down on the things I want to try and do.

As a 4-months-to-40 person and I know they are tropes but hiking, exploring wilderness, learning survival techniques, building things from wood, inventing strange useful objects and growing food and many other things are up my alley these days.

What I would do as a kid if I was bored are all things I can't stand anymore: Going to an amusement park, a movie, playing or watching sports, anything generally involving a lot of seeing or working with humans... hearing screaming kids, listening to music (especially if it's forced upon my ears without my ability to stop it), smelling perfumes... oh gawd keep it away.

I'm also curious if I'm an outlier at my age (or beyond?)
Your footprint should be available on that page—you should be able to see your annual total, your breakdowns by category, and how that compares to global averages. The "Email me my footprint" button just sends you a link so you can save it. I could see how you may want to change the email you entered once you get there though. We should add that!

Thanks for pointing that out
Colonialism is negative for the aborigines.

It is a form of totalitarianism.

It is not a positive thing, unless you actually are a 'colonialist' and thus privileged to its advances - not to be confused with the lesser 'colonist', which are more often than not the ones chopping all the lumber, i.e. doing the work of it.

There are certain religious groups for which the colony is everything...
You say ugly, I say minimalist and clean. I don't like aluminum chassis - too heavy and cold. The matte texture of the thinkpad feels much better for me. And the keyboard is far prettier, given that it actually has key travel.

Doesn't hurt that I get to "stand out" as a single, unlabeled black laptop among a sea of stickered silver macbooks.
Looks like this mainly replaces the pre-onsite or phone screen interviews?

Sure, it makes things easier for the interviewer since they'll get better candidates but does this change anything for the interviewee?

They'll still have "to find time to comb through my college computer science books, practice coding theory problems like implementing linked lists or traversing a graph, and be prepared to showcase this knowledge on a whiteboard." All that is up for game during the brutal onsite interviews.
So many feelings on this. My co-founder and I worked on this problem for awhile (https://www.headlightlabs.com) before pivoting to something else.

Truthfully, I came away a bit jaded about the whole culture around technical interviews and whether most companies actually have a genuine desire to change their interview process.

Still, we both really want to see something like this succeed. My current bet is still on https://www.woventeams.com/ but very interested to follow this as well.
That's already a fact of life in every large city I've ever been in.
I don't know how true that is anymore though..

Many relatively new shows are freakin complex and a commitment. You don't turn on The Ozarks or Stranger Things and put it on the background as a passive stimulus. It's a commitment! Infact I am finding shows so much of a commitment I can't even get the brain power to start them.

So, I'm sure what you said makes sense for some standard sitcoms and normal tv programming with commercials etc.. but I would guess the vast majority of newer content just doesn't fit that model anymore.
Calories-in/calories-out is broken. This isn't a simple "overeating" / "feast or famine" problem - it's that people are eating carbohydrate-rich food. Insulin then shoots up, triggering fat storage.
I was going to say, Google is a poster child for problematic technical interviews.
There were horse collars in Europe by 1000 AD, and the Chinese had them much earlier. Pulling a plow isn't the only use for a horse, anyway.
I think anyone who overindulges in soda and other junk are junkies. The people who buy them off SNAP are no better. I think it may be a lack of education or cultural or even psychological thing. If the SNAP isn't providing enough, and you have this little amount of money to spend on soda and chips which provide 10x more pleasure than spending the same money on some fruit, I would probably be a junkie too. (Personally I have lived like that before). But I doubt that giving more money would help unless we try to push people toward better options at the same time. Now I avoid soda(especially) and junk like the plague, because I've changed my mindset and outlook on things. For me, it's better to eat less overall(not enough calories) or just miss the meal until the next opportunity than eating junk food. That's because I've experienced what consuming that trash is like versus eating healthily. But other people may not have the same experience or education or culture to reach the same conclusion. I am quite fond of the Japanese portion sizes for instance. I'm also really into fasts. I think everyone should learn that you don't need to always be eating 3-4 meals every single day outside of specific situations.
I've always wondered why more attention isn't paid to this. A driver's ability to make a decision to run over a possible assailant is a huge deterrent that is not fully appreciated. To an autonomous vehicle all people will look the same and they will have to stop.

I'm most curious about the self-driving trucks. If they are driving across the country through sparsely populated areas, what is to stop a group of robbers from making a chain on the road that forces the autonomous truck to stop and then offloading the cargo? Legally, this would not be considered "robbery" since there is no person involved. As anybody who has driven is USA knows, time and distance would be on your side in the crime as there are tons of backroads and different routes to make a clean getaway...
That is a strange signaling system design. Most older train control systems have their configuration data in the wayside units in read-only form. In relay-based systems, it's hard-wired. In older electronic systems, it's in a ROM, which has to be physically replaced to change the configuration. Since the railroad tracks and switches have to be changed in a configuration change, changing the ROM is rarely done. Why are they transferring "conflict data" from one computer to another?

> Conveniently you left off the important part: the thing I'm trying to do is a thing that appears to be possible with the presented metaphor

Again, it is technically possible, we just did not put it in the GUI. So you are correct here.

> so therefore should be simple, but since the metaphor is illusion it is not simple.

I once again dispute your claim that the "metaphor is illusion" for all the aforementioned reasons...

> Consider that such things exist because despite every OS having a dependency manager to "solve" the problem, it is still less of a headache to just bundle dependencies!

Every OS? No, only Linux does. (I don't think the Windows and Mac App Stores count as "dependency managing" because, well, they don't check dependencies at all.) Obviously Haiku does not stop programmers from bundling their dependencies, they are still perfectly free to do so. But developers don't make applications for Haiku themselves for the most part (yet.)
So.. is it true? or just the downvotes? :D
There's a professor at Oklahoma State with a popular Youtube channel who has a proposal to create an Autonomous Truck Corridor as a way to fix a lot of our infrastructure problems. His proposal works with the autonomous driving technology available today--not level 5 autonomous driving that may be available sometime in the future.

http://www.acpa.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/OKStateUniv-A...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ev6hIQYKYY
This probably isn't going to happen.

Getting to level 5 will require "V2X" technology - vehicles communicating with other vehicles and the road/traffic infrastructure itself.

We will need a forward-thinking government to start building sensors and communication tech into roads, stop lights, parking spots, and a secure/interoperable internet for all these sensors to communicate autonomously.

Currently the cost of implementing such a system is way higher than the return to drivers who can...what, work on more powerpoints or facetime while they're in the car instead of driving? Not to mention the huge security and safety and liability risks this would open up.

That's why we solved this problem with public transportation in the past - hire one person to be the "V2X sensor" AKA bus driver.
Here in the UK Ofcom (governing body over communications) are pretty strict with what you can adversise. For home broadband, providers have to give realisic numbers to prospective customers - not just an "up-to". For mobile, they have to be transparent in what they provide. So unlimited data, is just that, unlimited. End of last year there was an investigation opened against two providers due to throttling and limiting tethering data (domestically, still have roaming restricitions) when under an unlimited plan. They both agreed to remove the limits as they would both likely have to change their advertised plans if they didnt.

Looks like a very cool solution if you can't use any of the common SaaS solutions out there like Pingdom or UptimeRobot.

Making getting this thing reliable is going to maybe a bit harder. Monitoring systems have this sort of "meta" issue of needing to be more reliable than the things they monitor. I'm building and running one as we speak and I had some interesting cases in that regard.

How is it not contradictory? That intense exercising is doing just that, preventing you from being overweight even if you are consuming tremendous amounts of calories and unhealthy foods.

You don't have to go too extreme either - take an average overweight person and put him through a certain amount of physical exercise - say, cycling multiple hours a day. He will lose weight with his original unhealthy diet, which had lead to him being initially overweight.
I associate the Netherlands with pragmatic and sensible, live and let live kind of policies for things like sex, drugs, traffic, squatting. In my mind it's similar to Denmark. I think it's a common association but I don't know how it would hold up to scrutiny.

I'm happy you are arguing for drug law reform in the way you do.

I was just explaining a different way of arguing in favor of it. My way and the way of many people.

You do you. My post was very specific: 'some people see it this way'

P.S. I never said 'old people who are about to die'. I said a generation will die off (it could be mine), and new ones will come in. I was implying a long term view of things (as in, look at the difference in attitudes over 50 or even 100 years)

And I never compared you to a flat earth-er. I compared people who support the current drug legislation to flat earthers. Because both of them have mountains of evidence that point to the fact that they should change their perspective, yet don't do so in the face of such evidence.

How you argue in favor of reform is on you. How we do reform is open to debate. That we need it is a fact like the world is round. That I don't agree with arguing in the way you do does not mean I don't understand your perspective (appealing to people's self interest vs sense of right)

I respect it. My only intention was providing you with a different perspective.
Stopped right here:

"For example, to express the number 128 in the current binary system, 8 "bits" will be required. With the ternary system, only 5 "trits" will be required."

Does that mean 8 bits != 5 trits? What is the 8bit eqivalent, 8 trits?

Cool to see an effort being made to progress semiconductor technology.

That's better phrased, indeed. The problem with your earlier statement is that the incentives are not for the people you are talking about.

You don't offer rewards to prevent criminals from selling exploits. Criminals are going to sell exploits anyway. Bug bounties have nothing to do with criminal behavior.

Bounties are there to incentivize the honest people to do security work. And the response of an honest person being denied a bounty IS ABSOLUTELY NOT to turn around and sell it.
I'm a self admitted chair-o-holic.

I have personally owned an Aaron, Embody, Steelcase Leather Leap.

In a nutshell, I found the Aeron the most uncomfortable chair of just about every office chair I've had the pleasure of sitting in personally and at work. It was the right size and it was fully loaded with every top option. I gladly and quickly sold it.

The Steelcase (Leather) Leap is probably my favorite. The Embody is a close though. The Leap I have is leather, so it's very easy to keep clean. The best part about the leap though is not only is the build quality top notch and feels like a tank (and weighs it), is how configurable it is. The sweetest part though is that instead of rocking back like probably most chairs, it actually reclines keeping your rear end in the same place. It's excessively comfortable.

All my friends ended up getting a Leap after trying mine. I got the embody out of curiosity, again I topped it out with every option to make sure it was the best model. It's far superior to the Aeron for me and close to the Leap in terms of comfort, but I do think the Leap wins, especially for longer days or when you just have one-of-those-days.

At work, I had a Mirra, it was pretty nice also, which looking at it, surprised me. Much better than the Aeron in my opinion for just pure comfort. I've had a number of there chairs, from the $50 Staples specials to other big brands. The Leap and Embody are still by far my two favorites.

I kept the Embody and Leap because I couldn't part with either. I let my dad swap back and forth with me since he is now retired and does a lot of Ham Radio contests now sitting at his desk.

Anytime any asks about office chairs and the mention of Aeron comes up though (what would be an office chair discussion without the Aeron mentioned?), I always think of this: https://dack.com/misc/aeron.html

Laws are designed by the government - if the executive branch cannot, by law, compete with TurboTax, then the legislative branch is free to alter the laws in whatever (constitutional) way benefits the society and explicitly delegate some agency the power (and duty!) to make TurboTax redundant.

Don't use TurboTax. I found out about IRS's VITA[1] program a few years ago and it's been a game-changer. The only real limits is that you make less than $55K, and it specifically targets those with disabilities and limited-English speakers. When I went, my preparer even said that they don't really care if you make more than $55K, as long as the return isn't super complicated.

This replaces "pre-onsite interviews"; in other words, it looks to fit into the same spot as HackerRank --- a hurdle you clear for the privilege of enduring a company's interview gauntlet.

The serious, playing-to-win version of this approach replaces most of the on-site interviews, and generates results that are more trustworthy than those interviews. It takes less time from candidates, reduces inconvenience, and yet is cheaper and faster to run for the company. I'm still amazed more people haven't figured this out and run with it.
