Thank you very much for your valuable input - it is very important that people understand the differences and look into this!

Performance comparisons to the candidates you named would be very interesting to see.

Downvoters: you should be happy that people with more knowledge than the average javascript-aws-webdevops-guy that is needed to operate a startup invest time to inform you about alternatives you might not know about.

Also it is important to keep this site attractive to people that have a different opinions and experiences - do not do that trump thing! Thanks!

Of course, for each claim replicable facts are needed.
It's 2+ km long when at elevation. From the paper at https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S259017451... :

> Docking airships is challenging due to their large size, limited control mechanisms, and high wind drag. Another particular issue is to keep the airship attached to the ground during windy episodes. The diameter of the airship hydrogen carrier (Fig. 2) is similar to the height of the Empire State Building in New York. It would be very challenging to keep such large airship from collapsing under strong superficial winds. On the other hand, balloon hydrogen carriers are not rigid and vary in size. Their volume on the ground is around seven times smaller than in the stratosphere (assuming a maximum operation height of 15 km). This is convenient because the size of the balloon hydrogen carrier on the ground is only 58% larger than the Hindenburg class airship

I myself am reading quite a bit of meaning into the conspicuous avoidance of the characters "tian", "an", and "men" throughout both ads.

I work 60% now. Instead of having two days off each week I've opted to work 4.5h each day. I can only focus intensely for about 4h each day on coding, so this works out well.

It's always been this way for me and to get to 8 hours I'd go through the logs each day (important, but not taxing at all and something better left to an intern most of the time) and attend much more meetings (low intensity but 90% of them were completely pointless) as well as take more breaks for stuff like hn.

I'd guess that I'm producing about 90% of the value I used to, but putting in way less hours. This isn't a bad deal for my employer, I think.

The pay cut kind of sucks, but I'm still making the national median salary because developers are paid so generously.

A lot of people opt to take whole days off, when they work less hours, but I find this arrangement works much better for me. It gives me more time for hobbies, friends and family, working out, eating healthy etc in the day-to-day.

I’ll refer you to the discussion on Wikipedia [1], which is fairly exhaustive. The long and the short of it is that we don’t know for certain either way, and all estimates have large uncertainties attached. However, the (tentative) prevalent opinion amongst experts can be fairly summarised as “The reported increase is largely attributable to changes in diagnostic practices, referral patterns, availability of services, age at diagnosis, and public awareness”. However, it also needs to be said that “largely” here refers to the effect size: most of the increase is probably not due to actually increased incidence. But some of it probably is.

When my son was born, he didn't sleep well, so I didn't either. My wife has a career and I was an equal partner in his care. It didn't help that I was working 80+ hours a week on something that was key to the success of the small company I worked for. Add in stress eating, and cutting out exercise due to perceived lack of time, and I gained 10-15lbs a year until my son was 4 or 5.

My son is 13 now, and its only in the last few years that I've really started to take care of myself. I've started exercising, stopped eating junk, and tried to make time for sleep. The result is I've lost 60lbs over the last few years, and am in better shape than I've been since highschool. However, I still don't sleep as well as I did before he was born.

My advice to new dads is: Take care of yourselves. Eat right. Don't cut out exercise to save time.
You're confounding affluence with the difference between physical/mental labour. I've done both hard physical labour and hard mental labour, and what OP says is totally spot on. Hard physical work, even when excruciatingly tough, is most often more bearable than hard mental work. There's nothing like beig 'done' after a hard day of work. After a hard day of mental work you just feel miserable until you fall asleep. If only manual laborers were appreciated (i.e. compensated) as much as mental laborers...

PropTypes are disabled for production builds and runtime only.

The only advantage for using them over TypeScript or Flow that I've seen is when consuming third party React components.

Otherwise the guarantees, feedback loop and terseness of static types are superior to PropTypes.
I'm a father of two, one who is nearly a teenager, so I'm still on the journey.

Having children is a life experience. A hard one, that will change you. It is certainly not the easy route. If you want a life of low stress and self satisfaction - having no kids makes a lot of sense. And I'd never begrudge anyone who makes this choice (of which I know many).

Choosing to have a family means you are willing to sacrifice your own goals to some extent. I think you could say the same about any relationship - you generally have to give up some of your own time and or desires to make a relationship work, whether short term or long term. Having kids is probably the most extreme version of this.

What do you get out of it? Life long companionship, for one thing. And a very unique experience, that only other parents can ever understand.

Why should they? They're typically underpaid and in not so great conditions, but even if they aren't, why should they feel shape for quitting for a better job? If you fulfill your contractual obligations, you don't owe your employer anything and leaving any job for a better one is totally not something to be ashamed about. If anything, shame on the employer for doing a bad job in retaining their employees.

But Tesla is reinvesting a lot. And it's growing the market for electric cars, setting up infrastructure, etc. He might be selling at a loss initially in order to create the volume that will eventually drive down the cost so he can generate a profit. From what I understand, the big reason he keeps losing money on selling cars is that by the time the previous car starts making a profit, he's already already started selling the next one at greater volume, creating new loss that drowns the fresh profit from that previous car.

> What does cultural homogeneity have to do with it?

Homogenous cultures have an easier time agreeing to all do the same thing. It’s called establishing social norms. I went to a STEM magnet high school that was about 1/3 Asian when I was there and is now 2/3 Asian. It was already known as a pressure cooker when I was a kid, and the competitiveness went way up since then. Why? Well I was one of those Asians. My dad grew up in a village in Bangladesh, moves his family to the US through hard work and a lot of luck. When I was in high school he told me I had to work 16 hours a day to be successful. I understand the arguments for limiting working hours at an intellectual level, but my gut reaction is to try do a little more than the next guy to get ahead. Even if it’s more for show than substance. And I’m raising my kids to do that too, because it’s my culture! (I can’t even really help it. My daughter is already kind of a striver to begin with, and my natural reaction is to reinforce those instincts.)
Ask HN: Best Shared-Hosting Provider?
I love shared-hosting when it works as intended. I can upload my lightweight frontend, connect it to any backend I want, can use cPanel for extra features, it's cheap and has lots of other benefits.

I have a great shared-hosting with servers in EU (using for 10+ years from serveriai.lt), but can't find a good solution with a global reach (specifically for the US).

So far I tried Namecheap and Bluehost, and had very bad experiences:

- Namecheap offers low price and a set of great features, but their speed is terrible (even the basic static html sites with no js often freeze for ~15 secs, then continue loading), also their e-mail is very slow. I would gladly pay double, if they could improve on their performance. It seems that their servers are overutilized, and probably suffer from malicious users.

- Bluehost is faster, loading is not freezing and email is fast too, but they target their whole service to Wordpress users. They created a specific interface that is on top of the default cPanel, and not only limits its default functionality, but creates a different UI that lures you into buying their products designed for WP only, and recently - it became inaccessible because of the bugs in their new survey and A/B testing implementation. The chat support team creates a friendly and welcoming atmosphere, but actually is very slow (makes you wait long times), but then requires to react super quickly (or disconnects), also the support team is at beginner's level.

I'm now thinking about trying this: https://www.fatcow.com/fatcow/fatcow.bml - any feedback about it?

Any other suggestions for a speedy, stable shared-hosting, with standard unlimited features and a global reach?

All the "Top 10" review articles on google recommend the same bluehost, namecheap, hostgator and other big names (probably because of affiliates). Maybe it is better to look for a smaller company, with shared-hosting as their core service/specialization.

If _all_ he had said was that he had made a conscious decision to go retro, well, a lot of people _are_ responding to that. "It's possible to go retro without looking bad" is a common sentiment in this thread.

But more importantly, that's not even all he said. He also defended his decision by pointing to games like Pokémon and Baba Is You, and saying "these games also look ugly, therefore there's nothing wrong with my games looking ugly", which means that _he's_ missing a really important point, which is that those games don't look ugly.

I completely understand if he can't afford to hire anyone with design sense, and that he doesn't want to learn basic design. But a lot of the rest of what he's saying is outright wrong, and belies a complete misunderstanding of what people mean when they say his games are ugly.

Probably the best counterexample is Kingdom of Loathing:

https://www.kingdomofloathing.com/

Kingdom of Loathing isn't ugly. It's possible to draw very low-effort art without a game looking ugly. It's much more understanding basic principles like consistency and clarity, than effort or budget.
> The Hypervisor you're running (firecracker, kata containers, gvisor, nabla, etc) are to protect your dangerous workloads from your other workloads.

I think it's more likely that the hypervisor someone iss running on top of their cloud provider's hypervisor exists because many people like building their own cloud providers and like to add layers of unnecessary complexity (like a second layer of hypervisors) at their employer's or investor's expense.

If someone doesn't trust their own workloads, it is vastly simpler and less expensive to run them on separate cloud instance.
>It is safe to say that most people don’t understand algebra.

Yes, but most people are not entering legal agreements that require them to understand algebra. One would think, especially with the most uneducated and highest risk borrowers, it would be necessary to understand the initial payment under ARMs are temporary for 3/5 years (depending on the terms, but 3/5 year were the most common) and thereafter the monthly payments will go up (statistically by 75% - so your $1,000/month mortgage payment will go up to $1,750).

>In theory the banks didn’t put a proper interest rate on the loan

Yes, that was one part of the problem (obviously the most uneducated and riskiest borrowers should not have been eligible for these complex adjustable rate mortgages), why on Earth would the riskiest borrowers have gotten loans with temporary interest rates below prime? These were the most likely borrowers to not understand adjustable rates. Other major issues were of course stated income (no proof of income required) and 100% to even 103% financing (no downpayment, banks will even pay your closing costs).

>Although it doesn’t matter since the banks bundled the mortgages together, sold them to each other, and were bailed out.

That is exactly why it matters, because laws were passed to prevent these kinds of loans, and here we are full circle, and the banks are offering these loans again.
If our capital markets are so unproductive that having the government own the assets is considered a net economic gain, we'll need all the communism we can get.

The central bank does not "control" rates, they respond to the market signaling where rates should be.
Yeah, do that too.

> The big question is "How much of a body does the AI need?"

Our bodies give an upper bound of five sensory inputs. With a little scrutiny we can reduce that even further, since we know that a portion of our population are born with less than five senses and exhibit comparable intelligence. Some people are borne blind, deaf, mute, anosmic, or with ageusia. Others are even born with rare sensory deficits such as the inability to feel pain. Although I have not read any studies on the subject, I suspect that being borne with none of the five core sense would have a serious negative impact human intelligence.

There is more to the problem though then just the ability to sense our environment. I believe that for an agent to acquire human level intelligence, it is also necessary to have the ability to explore and manipulate the environment in complex ways. It must be able to experiment by making observations, evaluating the outcome and thereby advance its knowledge. Knowledge of course must be retained to be of any use, so it must have memory efficient enough to be practicable. In order for the experimentation to lead to higher levels of enlightenment an intelligent agent must be able to take past knowledge and hypothesis yet unobserved outcomes. This should serve as motivation for further experimentation.

Human's have this notion that a per-requisite to real intelligence is to be able to express ones self with a language and thereby share your ideas with others. Communication with language seems to result in social beings, and it is widely believed that social beings do best if they have emotional intelligence, otherwise they will likely be outcast from society.

so, I think AI needs a body that at least allows it the following:

- Ability to move

- Ability to move objects with enough accuracy to assemble or disassemble complex structures

- The ability to know the physical properties of objects (maybe through one or more of our five senses, but not necessarily)

- Ability to retain knowledge

- Ability to hypothesise

- The ability to communicate with another agent to share information (helpful, but maybe not necessary)

I am not as convinced that emotional intelligence is required, so I left that out of my list. For example, consider that highly intelligent beings could be of a different nature than humans and form societies without emotions or politics. An excellent example are the Primes from Pehter F. Hamilton's Pandora's Star where (motiles) are controlled by the commanding caste (immotiles) [1]

Of course I am bias since I am human, so I am looking at what is required to achieve intelligence as I know and understand it.

I haven't played WOW since the first version, which I guess is "classic" now. I'm wondering what the draw would be for something like this, as I assume the current version of the game is this plus all the extras and bonuses from the expansions over the years? Is it just nostalgia for the "classic" version or is there some other reason someone would want to play this instead of the updated version?
You have a point, but I think it is useful to have a unifying general principle to use in analyzing the design of regulators, and having a theoretical basis makes it harder to dismiss.

I can think of a couple of places where it could have avoided accidents (one tragic and one expensive.) The 1974 DC10 crash in Paris was supposed to be impossible because the airplane could not be pressurized unless the cargo door was properly latched, but the mechanism depended on the position of the handle rather than the latching pins. At Three Mile Island, the operators were trained to use the pressurizer water level as a primary indicator of the state of the system, and turned off the emergency cooling feed as a consequence.
> Mentally people are suffering about as much if not more.

Physically too. Watch people when they get their first office job, a lot will start packing on the weight because they are sitting and grazing on junk food all day, walk considerably less, more stress "just got an email, argh my phone is ringing, ugh what does my team lead one that is instant messaging me, ugh I'm not meeting production, do I have time to go pee before the half hour meeting?" etc.
It's not about standing out. It's about signalling that you're genuinely interested in a job.
