Some say Hemmingway killed himself over his dispair for introducting the world to the running of the bulls festival. It seemed idyllic, and amazing in his book - Went there in 2014, and it's a bunch of tourist getting absolutely shit faced, and trying to mess with the bulls.
Can't remember seeing jacquesm trolling before so I suspect I have written something that can be misunderstood. Or something else.

"Norway makes annual payments to Brazil as part of a long-term billion-dollar program to curb the loss of Amazon rainforest to slow global warming."

Hi,

There are two kinds of article summarization. We use the extractive approach wherein top n relevant sentences from the article are selected. If the document is too short, it wouldn't select many sentences.

I think you misplaced a ) there.

Is the type level equivalent of:

Not:

I guess this is illustrative for how it is unreadable.

Funny, my impression of Costco is that they have literally the worst self-checkouts anywhere. I've never made it through without needing assistance and it takes forever to get assistance because, as best as I can tell, no other customer is more successful at it than me and there's never more than one person working there.

Meanwhile, the staffed checkouts always seem to have another person assisting the cashier to get those overflowing carts through quickly.
Bolsonaro is only doing that in order to spite the left.

If leftists took the public position of wanting to destroy the Amazon he would be doing everything in his power to preserve it.

That's the world we live in today.

Except destroying the rain forests is gonna do absolutely nothing to help the Brazilian poor.

So I’m not sure what being truly poor has anything to do with this. This will be almost entirely about displacing the poor, poisoning their water, and rewarding corrupt cronies.
Hi HN!

I'm the author of ScriptUI. I whipped it up over the last few weekends as a proof of concept. I'm looking for feedback on whether you'd use something like this. I hope it helps make starting projects easier.

Thanks for reading!
The mankind needs this. Cutting off the BS factory, no more copywritting, flashy headlines with unrelated news boddies, or copy-rewritting, or attention wasters and... the yet to appear ML generated article time wasters which are mash ups from others.

If your idea had a company behind I would invest in it. I wish it was a product which would generate a decent enough executive summary, so if I decide to invest more time into reading a whole article or just move on and filter all the BS floating on the internet.

HOWEVER the current status is far away from the desired expectations; try to input the "burnout" entry from HN top page and see the output (or any other article), and I am afraid the concept will stay science fiction for very long time since the amount of intelligence required to make executive summaries is sometimes not even met by new fresh university graduates.

Show HN: A Tool to Handle the Errors Generated by the Rust Compiler
A lot of programmers have given up learning Rust because of the error messages it generates. Furthermore, the concept of borrowing and ownership are relatively new and many aren't able to climb this "steep learning curve".

Although tools currently exist to improve code quality in terms of indentation, performance etc. there aren't much tools in cargo which can handle a panicking developer.

In principle a nice idea, as we all depend on that forest, however, people like that would abuse this and extort other countries and demand more and more.

Bolsonaro is also simply wrong to claim that it is their forest, only because it is on Brazil ground. The whole world depends on it, so it must be a resource shared and kept up by all. Bolsonaro and people like him are holding such things like rain forest hostage.
Please send in the military or something to wrestle control over such a valuable thing from that insane person. We can not afford to be extorted by the likes of him on a global scale, when time draws near, where the future of the whole species will be decided.
> the ease of theft is likely inspiring people who might not otherwise steal to do so

it means that the only reason that these people don't steal, is that they think they won't cet away with it.

Yes, the safe was provisioned for bolting and came with parts... Due to its weight I truly believed nobody would bother with carrying a box of 40kg with unknown contents. On the other hand, people assume that safes contain valuables (jewelry, cash, etc.) so it's understandable. I had a small satisfaction of knowing that the contents of the safe, if they managed to open it, was utterly useless to them.

Lesson learned.
I agree in part. In my experience people per se are fine, as long as we're talking to each other as people. The problems seemingly come with spending a lot of energy being the company instead of being ourselves. I think this can turn into a downward spiral where dumping too much energy into corporate identity is both the cause and effect of poor management and lack of engagement.
Why do you want to invest in the European stock market specifically in the first place?

There's nothing that keeps non-US citizens from investing in US market ETFs.

That said, European economies are quite diverse. There are ETFs for the European market as a whole (Euro Stoxx 50, for instance) but they tend to fare worse than their national counterparts.

In addition to simply investing in US ETFs you might consider investing in European ETFs that reflect strong national markets. However, investing in European markets probably requires more research and market knowledge than the fire-and-forget approach US-based ETFs are famous for.

National NASDAQ equivalents such as TECDAX might be interesting, too. Keep in mind, though that these typically are much more volatile than NASDAQ because these indices don't comprise tech giants such as Amazon or Apple but much smaller companies which often are unknown to the general public but in many cases still are market leaders in their respective categories. Therefore the risk higher is higher - but so is the potential return.
> choice is development or preserving the rainforest

That's a false dilemma, though. There is nothing preventing us Brazilians from choosing both things, apart from wacko politicians.
I think Packer (https://www.packer.io/) might what you want there.
Decide for themselves to destroy/change world climate even more? I do not think so. It is their responsibility to keep the rain forests in good shape. I agree though, that they should get help from all over the world.
Vanguard doesn't really exist in Europe per se.

They have a range of funds in GBP in the United Kingdom, because the retirement system there is similar to the US. That's all.

There is a handful of funds in EUR through an European subsidiary, but it's laughable compared to what is available in the US and they are pretty hard to buy.
Is there any Ohio-sized area in the US that has a system comparable to the Swedish one?

It's related, because men are usually wearing suits, women tend to complain it is too cold. In the summer, the A/C is too high and in the winter, the heat is set too low.
Generally women were told to put up with it and wear a sweater, now it looks like men just need to just go wear an air conditioner.

Slightly off-topic, but given the brevity of the linked blog post and the lack of conversation here, why not.

Can anyone explain to me the appeal of cruises? You're stuck on a boat with thousands of other people as you are taken to predefined locations and undergo what I like to call "organised fun". While on board, you're their captive audience as they sell you overpriced food and drink and generally try to sponge as much extra money from you as possible. Meanwhile, you're surrounded by people from the same place as you, who, at least for me, you might be trying to be get away from. Then, at each port, typically in a place with a tourism-driven economy, the locals identify and surround you everywhere you go, trying to sell you yet more stuff because they know you're probably rich and suggestible. I have friends who went on holiday to Curaçao and were told by the locals not to shop on [insert day here] because that's the day of the week the cruises come in, when they increase their prices 50%.

While this is somewhat of a rant, I've never been on a cruise and I'm genuinely interested to hear from someone who has been on one and enjoyed it - what their reasons were, whether they thought it was good value, relaxing, etc.
I agree with everything you said.

Bolsonaro is not claiming the forest for Brazilians. He's claiming it for his party and his allies, and for criminals that have been taking advantage of that.

The poor from Brazil don't stand to get anything at all out of this.
Because for historic reasons, Youtube has a monopoly position on viewers and the content creators need those viewers, despite that they have to resort to other means, like Patreon, merchandise or product placements/sponsorship to make any money themselves.

This won't be the case forever, I hear more and more people (creators and viewers alike) complaining about Youtube, its monetisation and it recommendation algorithms.
I do not think this hypothesis is correct. What evolutionary purpose would functional pain serve?

To me, it seems it's a theory to compensate for medical imaging technology that has far too low resolution. Doctors hate admitting that they don't know what's wrong, so instead they claim that the patient is crazy in politically correct terminology with an excessive number of syllables.

Structural tissue damage starts at a molecular level that cannot be seen by medical imaging technology. The fascia alone is too thin to be imaged at all, and so is completely ignored.

Biochemists have delineated in explicit detail how tissue breaks down at the molecular level. And they can reverse it. We need to start listening to them more.

This happens when other nations and unions stand by idly instead of immediately threaten sanctions against insane people like Bolsonaro. There needs to be so much pressure on the country, that they riot against people like him and rid themselves of people like him. The moment this guy talked about cutting down trees, other nations should have immediately threatened with heavy sanctions, to stop this thread right away.
Brazil's southeast (which includes São Paulo - the most industrialised state and with 40 million people) gets humidity from the Amazon. They have had water shortages these last few years.

>How about we change customs that are historical relics and now just feed global warming with unnecessary air conditioning?

How about we retain what little has been left of style (and/or local character), and we don't all look like 15 year old American skater boys, with t-shirts and shorts?

Air-conditioning in the summer is like 10% of energy use in Europe, so there are much better Pareto targets than it. And of course in 37 and 40 degrees celcius + humidity, it's not used because of clothing, it would be used even if people were in t-shirts and underwear...)

(Besides, white shirts can help cool a person, and there are several options for white suits and light fabrics).
The following is unrelated to our main discussion- a digression. Apologies, but your comment about disdain of junkies made me reminisce (also- it hurt my feelings, but OK, I'm a big girl) (I'm on a diet).

The first time someone tried to sell me heroin was when I was sixteen. I had gone for the first time to Exarchia Square, a place in Athens, Greece, were all the countercultural types gather. I had heard that all the punks and the anarchists gathered there and I wanted to meet some.

When I got there the place was empty so I sat on a bench and waited. At some point, this older dude came and sat next to me and started chatting me up. He started telling me about this thing called "paramytha" ("fairy-tale stuff") that people take to have a good time. He explained the name comes from the fact that it "makes you believe stuff" ("se paramythiazei"). I asked what this "paramytha" looked like and he described it as a powder, sometimes brown, sometimes yellow, sometimes grey, etc. So basically not only did he want to sell me heroin (I was 16, remember) he also wanted to sell me heroin cut with whatever dirty shit he had lying around (as normal).

Well, I wasn't buying. A while later an other older dude came and sat with me and told me to stay away from the other guy and the stuff he was trying to sell me. This dude, let's call him Dude B, told me that the "paramytha" was heroin, that it was a horrible disease that caused you to do the most degrading things to yourself and others. He told me that a grown man had once told him he gave someone a blowjob for money to get his "paramytha" (I'm guessing it was Dude B himself who did and that he did it many more times than one). I am not going to look down on a man (or woman) who gives blowjobs, or who gives blowjobs for money. But giving blowjobs to get money to spend on heroin that makes you give blowjobs for money is scraping the bottom of the lowest pit of degradation, in my book. Edit: but when you're addicted that's all par for the course.

So, no disdain. Sometimes pitty. Sometimes anger and frustration. Most of the time these days just a great big distance between myself and anyone who bears the marks.

I hope that is intersting to someone in this thread.

Indeed. It's probably going to be even worse for the poor in the affected area from now on.

Illegal wood extraction doesn't only kill trees. Those criminals have historically killed citizens in order to prevent being caught.
Probably depends on the country. In .se for example with any bank you'll be able to buy ETFs that are index funds that invest in the US, Europe or Asia markets with a yearly fee of 0.20% or less. Those will give you pretty much what you are asking for. Talk to your bank and ask for index funds and don't accept higher fees than 0.25% or so (depending on country, again).

Is there any reason why you want exposure to Europe in the first place? Maybe you just want American equity exposure without the currency risk? If so, you might be interested in ETFs that attempt to track the S&P 500 EUR Hedged Index. One ETF that does this is called theiShares S&P 500 EUR Hedged UCITS ETF.

I would not recommend European government bonds as most of them have real negative rates.

Is there any reason why you don't want just pure straight up American equity exposure? There's no reason you couldn't be buying American listed equities from Europe.

Years ago, nearly all food was included except alcoholic beverages, as is nightly entertainment. It's relatively inexpensive. You just stay in one room, as opposed to going from one hotel room to another to cover many destinations. It doesn't take much planning - just select a line, ship, and itinerary, and you're set. Plus, I like being in the middle of the water. All in all, a good value.

Some of this has been diminished in recent years as the big lines have a bunch of on-board add-ons like extra restaurants that charge a fee.

It's not for everybody but there is definitely appeal, as shown by the fact that it's a large and growing business.

That was a great read. I think the most important thing is letting go when stressful problems become a danger to your health. Just think "I'm not that important in the grand scheme of things" and take a few steps away from the problem (obviously that's not always possible, but it's more often possible than people think). What will happen is the following:

- Maybe you're right, and things go on nicely without you

- Maybe things go not so well, so your coworkers have to learn redundancy and that they cannot pile all the problems on one person

- Often, you come back from your break (be it going home early, or taking a few days off, etc.) refreshed and you look at the problem from a new perspective. Potential emotions like anger and impatience have worn off, enabling you to act calmly and rationally.
