Still don't see that much of a similarity. "I don't like doing X" != "X is beneath me", it just means I don't like doing X. So e.g. I don't like cooking because I'm bad at it so it doesn't give me much enjoyment (chicken and egg, I know). And I don't like cleaning the house because I consider it to be a waste of life that's necessary only because we don't have self-cleaning technology. I'm not even sure what the frame of mind looks like that allows one to enjoy household chores.

> Kind of like people tend to look down on garbage men and cleaning persons, even though their work is essential.

Ok, I've seen people thinking like this; I actively changed the mind of or filtered out people like this from my social circle. It's a proxy for looking down on poor / less successful people. Still, these are jobs associated with less well-off precisely because the tasks are unpleasant, and everyone who can avoid them, will.

(Then again, maybe it's self-reinforcing at this point, and the factor that poor people do these jobs makes for an extra incentive to avoid doing the same, even if one is poor too.)

@kuzehanka, Well. Well. Seems like your natural language research is undermined by your controversial view of your training sources. Gonna have to start over or create a loony alt-x twitter bot.
That's because you focus on surface syntax.

In the end brainfuck is just a fancy assembler.

You could very well write nicely formatted, structured etc brainfuck. It will just look weird because the (otherwise very simple operations) have a weird sigil syntax.
Depends on your point of view. Chrome is going to use the same architecture that Safari has had for a few years (on iOS and Mac): data-driven content blocking, where rules are declared by the extensions, and then read and implemented by the browser core with no JavaScript involved on each request.

Javascript-based content blocking is technically slower because you need to invoke V8 on all requests, and then it’s up to the extension to make sure that the JavaScript code is fast enough. It surely is more flexible (as you can do whatever you want in that javascript code) but it’s hard to beat a simpler, data-driven content blocking engine written in native code and integrated in the core.

Whether this difference in resources does have a concrete impact or not, remains to be seen. The fact that Apple Safari did it first makes me believe that there is some truth in the technical merit argument; surely Apple didn’t want to make sure their content blockers were ineffective, but was actually using the same approach as always: providing a possibly “weaker” but far more efficient implementation (compared to “de facto standards” on other platforms) to protect iOS resources usage.
Not a good analogy. Chemical rockets are the only real way to get to space. So if you make them better, even incrementally, you have a win. It also helped that launchers were very far away from fundamental economic limits on their performance. Expendable launchers, unlike power plants, are expended.

But fusion is competing against a plethora of other approaches to production of energy that actually work, and are being used, and are arguably superior.

Fusion also uses components that are mature due to their use in these other approaches. DT fusion, which Lidsky is addressing, will produce its energy as heat. This heat has to be turned into power using turbines and generators, a mature technology. And it's a mature technology that's a major part of the cost of coal and nuclear power plants, and is a big reason why those power plants are no longer competitive.

(This echoes an argument from the mid 20th century, when it was pointed out that fission power would, at best, be only slightly less expensive than power from coal, due to all the common elements the power plants shared. And it turned out nuclear fission was more expensive than that, as one could not do the nuclear parts too cheaply. DT fusion reactors promise to be much larger and more complex than fission reactors, for the fundamental reasons Lidsky and others gave, so one can reasonably expect their economics to fail even more.)

(This is also why the focus on thorium and SMRs to try to keep fission alive is probably hopeless.)

("Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it")

The complaint about funding is a red herring. It has the presumption that if funding had been available, fusion had a real chance of succeeding. But as Lidsky points out, it didn't have a real chance of succeeding. Even if the program had produced a reactor, no one would have wanted it.
Or you might think that a doctor who does a surgery like this every day, has done so for years, and for whom brushing up would thus be redundant is the doctor you want.

Granted, that requires that it be a reasonably common surgery and that you trust that the doctor gives sufficient consideration to non-surgical treatments instead of pushing patients towards surgery.

Perhaps a decent analogy would be a dentist capping a cavity or doing a root canal. They’ll do tens of thousands of these in a career. You don’t really want to be the first or even the hundredth patient s/he does this work on. And by the time they’ve done a thousand, looking it up would be silly.

Why "ES2017", specifically? ES6 is ES2015, and ES2019 was published a few months ago and is well-supported in node.
I don’t know if that’s true. Overselling becomes less enticing to these administrators. It’s really a question if less motivated but more rational people are better at these decisions.

That said, there is plenty of incompetence, fraud, and corruption to make the worst on both sides really bad.
I think the real revelation here is the absurdity of credentialism, and how shallow it is in the end.

I don’t know the game, but skimming https://media.wizards.com/2019/downloads/MagicCompRules%2020... (not the best organized of texts, IMO. ‘Normal’ game rules start describing the goal of the game (https://www.fide.com/component/handbook/?id=171&view=article:

”1.1 The game of chess is played between two opponents who move their pieces on a square board called a ‘chessboard’. The player with the light-coloured pieces (White) makes the first move, then the players move alternately, with the player with the dark-coloured pieces (Black) making the next move. A player is said to ‘have the move’ when his opponent’s move has been ‘made’.”

Similarly, the rules for bridge (http://www.worldbridge.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/2017La...) start

”Duplicate Bridge is played with a pack of 52 cards, consisting of 13 cards in each of four suits. The suits rank downward in the order spades (), hearts (), diamonds (), clubs (). The Cards of each suit rank downward in the order Ace, King, Queen, Jack, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2”

As another example, couldn’t those “in a Emperor/Commander/multiplayer game,…” sections be grouped by type of game?), there are decks, stacks, sideboards, zones, one of which is the battlefields, and libraries. Presumably, they all behave differently.

If those aliens don’t know what these words mean in this world, are they going to figure out what they mean in the game from reading the cards? For example, rule 405.2 ”The stack keeps track of the order that spells and/or abilities were added to it. Each time an object is put on the stack, it’s put on top of all objects already there.” isn’t hard to infer if you know what a stack is, but if you don’t?

Similarly, I read ”An effect may state that a player wins the game.”. Chances are those aliens will think that’s the only way to win.

Also, that text is full of extremely weird rules (“A card’s name is always considered to be the English version of its name, regardless of printed language”) that, I guess, are impossible to discover from the cards only.
> For example, the fact that resolution order follows a "stack" is specified nowhere on cards.

There are actually several things that reference the stack. For example the reminder text for Split second ("As long as this spell is on the stack, players can't cast spells or activate abilities that aren't mana abilities.") and end the turn ("Exile all spells and abilities from the stack, including this card..."). From this we learn that normally people can cast spells and abilities, and that these go onto "the stack". And if you know what a stack is, then the resolution order follows from that.
Consider pre-reading it first. If a book is hard, if it’s over you head, try going through the whole book w/o stopping on things you don’t understand (don’t fixate). In this way you’ll grasp the major points, ideas and themes. Only then read it carefully — you’ll understand better and get more out of the book.

It’s similar to progressive JPEG rendering. Your first pass is pre-processing resulting in fuzzy understanding of the whole that you then refine in the subsequent pass(es). Progressive way is more natural and effective.

I highly recommend reading Adler’s “How to Read a Book” [1]. This exactly the guide you want to read if you want to know how to learn well from books.

The best available scientific studies were conducted by conventional medical science, and show there is no benefit. It's telling that, at the time, "long term" treatment was measured in weeks. After it was demonstrated that there was no treatment effect, the goalposts were naturally pushed back by the chronic-lyme advocates, and now it needed to be months.

Test tubes are profoundly inadequate for this kind of study, because the immune system makes a huge difference. Many antibiotics are bacteriostatic (not -cidal), and don't kill the organisms. But that's enough to give the host immune system an edge, and we wipe it out instead of succumbing to the infection.

If there is a benefit to longer treatments, it should be straightforward for the alternative-lyme industry to perform a similar double-blind placebo-controlled trial and prove it.

That's what happened with the "unconventional" example of cannabis for epilepsy, and now it's available to every patient who needs it, and is covered by their insurance. This example just supports the idea that doctors care about their patients, and want effective treatments to be found. When you have a splinter group of doctors who disagree with convention, create a splinter industry on top of it, and market theories rather than publish data, then my default position is going to be skepticism, and I'm going to try to help my own patients find something more promising (though I would never fault them for trying anything: I recognize they are desperate, and the victim of a con is hardly to blame).

Why would your 1(a) be a problem compared to transport by ship? As i see it only requires 2 reloadings, one when entering broad gauge, and another when leaving. Both can be automated. If it needs to be, remains to be seen. According to
[1] http://en.khorgosgateway.com/sections/%D0%98%D0%BD%D1%84%D1%...

this one of several "dry ports" with gauge change has the capacity of handling 18000 containers per day, which is about one modern large container ship.
Leaving the broad gauge zone isn't bottlenecked to one place
either.

Regarding the axle loads and loading gauges i can't see your point either, since almost anything broad gauge is built according to former soviet standards and their heavy needs.
It's not like the parts of track used for this are rotten since the collapse. This is all rebuilt, new, and maintained in good condition.
In the harbour town i live in which is standard gauge country, the only limitation seems to be the length of trains, which tops out at 750m/2460ft. I see 53ft containers on trains, trucks, standing here and there, though it is not common, so it stands out.
Anyways, it works? It´s just inertia, and jabbering by established parties which have interests to protect.

Nobody cares. More options in transport are a good thing.

Ask HN: Have your weekends evolved into “workends”?
I used to view weekends as my "free time" to relax/enjoy.

However, within the past couple of years I've noticed my weekends filling up with unfinished work tasks from the week before. I now spend most weekends in (more or less) a "work from home" state.

On the one hand it's nice because I have fewer interruptions.

On the other hand I have very little time that isn't spent working.

Has your definition of weekend changed as well?

There are many social hierarchies. To the plurality of my own, those that pay someone else to clean up after them and to feed them are of lower moral character and thus lower status.

You can be high status and poor, or high status and rich, but the former is easier to achieve. This probably stems from a “it is easier to thread a camel through a needle than for a rich man to find grace” kind of mentality, but also relates to values of self-sufficiency. Nevermind that everyone goes to the grocery and only maintains small vegetable gardens.

As someone who likes to make money, I am in a subculture of my immediate social network.

The problem with changing tools to fend off boredom is that it has a very short lifespan. Pretty quickly your brain realizes that it's not learning anything fundamentally new and it protests. Hence fatigue. If possible, it's better to focus on the problem domain and try to make the best of that for entertainment. If not then maybe just accept that it's better to be a bit bored than fatigued.
It is a useful cautionary tale for someone contemplating doing something similar.
^ls -la | lines | skip 1 | split-column " " perms files group user size month day time name

This is neat, but does nushell have the ability (should be trivial to add) to save such a pipeline and reuse it (similar to an "alias")?

e.g.

myls = ^ls -la | lines | skip 1 | split-column " " perms files group user size month day time name

and then:

myls | where size > 1000

Also perhaps the built-in commands could be namespaced? E.g. nu.ls or nu-ls vs ls. Then you wouldn't need escaping, and the names wouldn't shadow traditional commands (but could allude to them).

That said, fish is explicit about how the features it includes feel more like they should have evolved in th 90s, not the 2010s.

Not quite as annoying as ordering a book listed as a hardcover and receiving a cheap photocopied paperback. (Has happened several times here).
Similar issue. We had to scramble off of Datadog quickly, as they adjusted our billing and it increased by a factor of 8 in a single month. This was due to our tag usage. Same pattern, previously unbilled, and next month bill increased 8 fold.

No slow adjustment, warned us about 2 weeks prior to the next month billing cycle. If they had given us one additional month, we could have re-worked our tagging but we were given no options at all.

Lost nearly 2 weeks of productivity out of a few team members as they needed to focus on getting us off of Datadog and onto a competitor.

Never going to consider using them again.

Leverage and the necessary stop losses. Much of forex trading is done on high leverage, and as such requires stop losses. For example at 10x leverage you can only sustain a 10% drop, even if it is very short, before your margin gets burned and the position forcibly liquidated. For a similar example look up the $SVXY long term chart (the event was called the volpocalypse, CBOE has a write-up on that).

Naturally there is no guarantee that a stop loss can be executed at any predetermined price - the market can just fly by your desired exit point without stopping there. This leads to huge losses when the position is actually liquidated, below the desired stop loss point.

The Talebs of the markets win a shit ton of money on days like that. Not sure who made money on chf/eur depegging (other than CHF deposit/bonds holders :) ), but volpocalypse was the cashout day for the mystery "50-cent trader".
