The last part about having support for. limited numbers of languages is bigger than you probably expect. Generally, unless a software has actually been adapted to and tested with a specific language, it shouldn't claim to support it, even if is just processing UTF-8 encoded text in that language.
Ah, I just saw 95kWh and figured it was close. I didn't realize the usable was so different.

I'm a bit suspicious of the WLTP ratings for these cars. The EPA rating for the Model X Long Range is 325 miles, while the e-tron's EPA rating is only 204 miles. Any idea why the Model X would score lower on WLTP while the e-tron would score so much higher?
> I think if it really was purely a device for cessation then this could be solved by putting it behind the counter and requiring a prescription.

That ignores the fact that cigarettes, which are orders of magnitude more dangerous, do not require such hoops to be jumped through.

If you’re going to make vaping by prescription, you then need to simultaneously ban tobacco outright.
A rather useful pattern in C# is to load a blob into a byte array, then inside unsafe code, typecast it to a pointer to well-defined struct.

There's also managed ways to do that, but they are slower and involve copying memory.
But... why? Python 3 has been "good enough" since 3.4. By 3.6, it was markedly better than 2. With the upcoming 3.8, it seems to be better in every way (including performance!).

I loved Python 2 for a long time. It was a beautiful language. But after seriously using 3, I would never go back. As in, I would turn down job offers involving Python 2 in any other context than "we're hiring you to help us upgrade".
Is the leaf structure in anyway necessary for the chemical reactions or is it just a nice, familiar form that makes the project seem more natural than some array of microfluidic chambers?

Even if they try, they’ll fail. We’ll always have a new trick up our sleeves. We have coding/scripting to back us up. Cable TV was different because you had no other choice but to take in the brainwashing/ads
You make it sound like more of a tower than it actually is. It's just ClojureScript to React Native. All the others are simple frameworks and build tool to help you scaffold.
When those Americans vote their beliefs do hold demonstrable weight.
you're getting no traction with your argument because you're grossly overreaching with it.

not having yubikey support is obviously not "very very scary" since most people (even on hn) don't have yubikeys and we don't run around with our tails between our legs.

many reasons can lead to not supporting yubikey yet, including the simplest, which is that it's lower on the priority list for a resource-constrained organization. or another likely explanation: yubikey has unsolved ux issues that keep it a niche product (for now), so demand simply isn't there.

this seems to be an important issue for you, so if you want to effect change, then you need to come across as well-reasoned, not fud-filled. (edit: and don't let perfect be the enemy of good.)
It's a nice balance between not having to run the job search gauntlet for a while, and not getting significant pay increases or advancement opportunities unless you get a new job at a different company.
- Firefly III enforces splits to make sense. Source must be the same for deposits, destinations for withdrawals. It's technically possible to mess up but I never met people who were careless enough to do so.

I'm halfway between going full accountant (never go full accountant) and basically human. I'm pretty happy with the results so far.
Yes, those people are arrogant and/or entitled, but you know darn well that's not the arrogance GP was talking about.

It's also arrogant to grab Python 2 out of the hands of people still using it and flush it down the toilet.

As choppaface said,

> Perhaps the killer feature missing from Python3 is a flexible, built-in Python2 runtime. Then maybe the transition would not have met such pushback.

If Python 3 could run Python 2 code (even at just the granularity of modules) then all of this mess could have been avoided. I love Python and I love GvR, but he stumbled badly here IMO (not as badly as Perl 6, but that's small comfort) by trying, in effect, to cannibalize 2 for 3. I don't enjoy saying this.

I've met GvR briefly and he didn't seem arrogant at all to me. But I do find the attitude of "Hey, F. U." to those of us who want to keep using Python 2 to be pretty arrogant.
Stellar just sent 100M Lumens (worth $5M USD) to 300k Keybase users
I think you are making some great points here. I have seen code commits are mostly right click in Eclipse and commit all modified files irrespective of if they are local config changes or preferences.

The senior devs in projects I worked have made 10 level deep 'strategy patterns' for future enhancements which still had hardcoded values underneath and absolutely non-extensible.

So in my books senior developers knew what they were doing comes with huge assumption. I have noticed many sr engineers simply had delusions of grandeur far beyond their programing skills.
"They're only employees. What could they possibly need?"

It's worked for me by treating this as a given (given that I will be working for them, I will be at least maintaining the PTO that I had at my previous company) and by offering alternatives for HR. Sometimes companies have personal time that is separate from PTO. You often won't get this time paid out to you if you quit and still have hours but since I plan on using it all every year that's not a big problem. Some companies can give you extra floating holidays or other types of time off to make up the difference.

You usually only have to resort to that if the HR system is inflexible and someone is making a big deal about it. A blanket statement that we don't do that, can't do that and won't think about doing that is usually a bad sign.
That'll show them
> Weather disasters are getting more severe. It is objectively, quantitatively true that weather disasters are getting more frequent and more severe.

There is also more infrastructure for weather disasters to destroy. A perhaps more interesting metric would be an average extreme weather impact per person.
Like recurring transactions? Just enter weekly and set it to skip 1.
I can tell you aren’t willing to understand my argument, so I’ll just slowly back away.
Yeah, that's my career for the next ~20 years...

I'm not complaining. I like Python 2.
But for the bad companies, the answer might really be NO and you want to avoid them! I joined a place once without any of these. No source control, no bug tracker, no QA or testing, failing builds were the norm, and people worked to make things compile just before releases happened. Releases, by the way, were cut from whatever happened to be on the lead developer’s workstation on the day the Eng manager decided to release. It was a circus.

As much as we’d like to believe tech shops are at least all run by grownups, things like source control and working builds are NOT to be assumed!
America’s Electronic Voting System Is Corrupted to the Core
Mathematics is definitely a weakness I feel acutely as I press up against the boundary between knowing-about and knowing-how-to-do.

I'd say the next book to read in a formal direction is Hartmut Bossel's Systems and Models, which happily dives into the calculus. Then, as my sibling comment explains, control theory, signal processing and information theory are major influences on various branches of systems thought (systems dynamics, cybernetics and so on).

That said, as Sterman points out, many interesting problems can't be solved analytically and require simulation in order to come up with useful approximations. Furthermore a page of sigils is comprehensible to relatively few people: a systems model is useful only insofar as people will believe its descriptive, predictive and prescriptive qualities. If they don't understand it, they won't trust it and will ultimately ignore it.

Systems dynamics and other simulation approaches (particularly discrete event simulation and agent-based modelling) are much easier to explain and verify qualitatively with subject-matter experts and end users.

Definitely read Sterman first, nobody else has such a thorough treatment of the field.
Try using the docker images, that makes for a pretty flawless upgrade experience.
Not OP, but I'm guessing they meant it can express more, but it can statically type check less. Since Clojure's system is a runtime contract and not a static type checker.
You can, it just won't be validated as the CFG read by the kernel has to be a DAG. But the compiler has no problems emitting code with arbitrary loops. cBPF is different; branch offsets are unsigned there.

I'm working on an exokernel built around a eBPF VM that'll let you use loops in certain circumstances (ie. more or less regular threads that happen to be in kernel space and are preemptible).
Yes, exactly – when I was using GnuCash I tried to create my own 'cash flow' tool using data exported from GnuCash because this was exactly what seemed to be missing in GnuCash. I miss double-entry bookkeeping but YNAB has turned out to be better for me overall.
This is a great read. I always wondered if AAA battle royale games did something like that, since updating distant players every frame, especially if they're behind the local player, seems like a waste.
I don't think the OP meant "don't touch old code", but this sentence, to me, implies that "reasons" means good reasons:

> There are reasons for every code and every guard that exists in production.

Sometimes the reasons are not good ones. Maybe that's exactly what the author meant. The rule doesn't read like that to me, though.

And yeah, if you're rewriting something, don't rewrite the whole damn thing! Good code is modular and you should be able to pick it apart and replace components that are causing problems. If it's not causing a problem, don't rewrite it...

However if you're going to be adding features to a section of code (or otherwise working on it a lot), it's a good time to try to understand if you can do a bit of refactoring along the way to clean it up. By default, all code gains code smell over time and also becomes more robust. It's a tight rope to walk.
And how much would it use if we used it to replace fiat currency?
> Try a strip and see if it is still that big.

...I guarantee that it is nothing short of humongous xD

Joking aside, maybe, I don't know, it's been a while since I used some C++ code, but I'll have a look into it the next time around.

...though it's probably unlikely, I use Code::Blocks and exclusively use the "Release" candidate, and uncheck the "Debug" version, and I'm quite confident the CB authors know what they are doing.

Honestly dyson is just something I wrote for myself to see how difficult it would be to write. I don't expect anyone else to use it. The tool is also a punny name, because you'd need to terraform a dyson sphere before you(r apps) can live in it.

I just wanted something with easy templating syntax like this: https://github.com/Xe/within-terraform/blob/master/dyson/src...

That is nonsense argument. Doctors don't sleep in barracks or on grass, they go home to families. They eat what they choose to eat. They don't dig latrines. They don't have periods (days) of boredom full of made up work combining with short intensive assignments. They can leave the job.

Yes, it does pride itself on the quality of discussions. It also has done that just fine using the voting and flagging mechanisms. When I see comments criticizing others' comments I am always reminded of reddit. I think this is exactly what you're hoping to avoid when you come to HN.

Beyond that, who are we to judge what constitutes "good command of language?" Which language are we even talking about here? I don't think HN is going to become a better place by becoming more elitist.

I feel your pain – but I'm a happy YNAB user and I've only ever 'known' the web version. (I'm aware of the desktop versions.) I don't use the auto-import features anymore – they never worked consistently with all of my financial providers and I've found that manually reconciling is much better anyways.

Given how awesome YNAB is for me managing my finances, I'm more than happy to pay the subscription.
I absolutely agree. If you look at Atlantic hurricane statistics reaching back to the 1920s it’s apparent that hurricanes aren’t actually becoming more frequent or more intense. This headline sounds like the NYPost suggesting falsehoods to support a narrative and offloading responsibility for those falsehoods onto a vague “majority of Americans”.

How likely is it just that Huawei devices are the most common that use the usb modeswitch technique? I've gotten 3 different "free" 3g/4g wifi routers (all rebranded to the ISPs name) and they were all Huawei.

ZTE is also extremely popular but it's too short to search for. Other vendors like d-link, tp-link, alcatel, novatel, qualcomm etc all turn up around 300 results each.
Do people feel a change or observe a change?

I'm inclined to put down chips on the former; I often see and participate in conversations about local weather and often people making the conflation that a one off weather event == climate. The two are linked, but I've always understood the difference to be that climate = (weatherevent() x time) where time is usually on the scale of years; that it's much harder to fully assess climate by remarking on a couple days of severe thunderstorms.

Opening myself up to correction here
Actually trying all promising new technologies is another full time job, or at least take 20 hours a week.

Most developers just don't want to be left behind, so they pick up whatever is trendy at the moment. It's completely rational, because knowing what is trendy getting you hired.

However, implementing what's trendy, without carefully weighing pros and cons*, is what's dangerous.
I know you're writing tongue-in-cheek, but if you look at early C code you'll find it's not really supported today. The Lions book is full of "interesting" type magic, for example.

However the best analogy for python 2to3 is probably the prototyping changes of ANSI C, and we similarly offloaded the conversion of that code to external tools (protoize(1) and unprotoize(1)).
I do see a problem.

However, if I were Spotify, I wouldn't be too concerned about this particular problem. Apple Music and Apple Podcasts come preinstalled on every iPhone, so Spotify effectively lost the discoverability battle before the user even got to the App Store.

By contrast, I'd be quite concerned that Apple is outright preventing me from making my app as good as their first party offerings. Spotify will not ever be able to open Podcast links shared from Safari, or fully integrate into Siri.

"I don't believe any of the scrolls that overlap with biblical canon are believed to be originals, so what do you mean by fake?"

That's true of any bible text we have. The original texts are lost, hence biblical exegesis and hermeneutics exist as disciplines. And which "canon" are you talking about? The 5th century canon before the East-West schism of the Eastern Orthodox-Catholic church? The 16th century canons of the Roman Catholic or the Church of England? There are a lot of canons out there.
And Babylon Berlin is also well worth it - great mise-en-scène, recreation of the time and place (I think... wasn't there :-) and a captivating police/thriller/extortion/revolution story.

I guess it depends on how well you do on leetcode already. I think most people could probably just do 1-2 leetcode problems a week for a few months to get good at it. I’ve only been asked a few interview questions ever that I thought would be leetcode hard, most are mediums with some easies thrown in.

I don't really see the problem here. They're the ones voting for the leadership that denies climate change, they're the ones watching Fox News, they're the ones who go to churches where their pastors tell them that God loves rich people more and that climate change is a hoax. They're also the ones who refuse to give up their guns and vote for anyone who sides that way, and they're the ones who insist on driving huge, gas-guzzling vehicles everywhere (and then complaining about gas prices) instead of living in town, and want the rest of the country to finance their unsustainable rural lifestyle.

Hip technologies are being used in SV, and they have to pay tons of money just to keep the talent pool large and circulating.

Older technologies are used in other cities, and there the market forces aren't so crazy.

But a good Java dev can make plenty of money in SV, and a Go developer will make a competitive salary by Dallas standards but not by SV standards (and probably have a harder time finding a new job).
