The post I’m responding to went beyond international cooperation to address the concept of exploring space as a “single human race.”

As to your second point—no government today is as large in scope as say Rome, the British Empire, the Persian empire, etc. The long-term sustainability of the EU and US are also far from certain. As we saw with both, federalism doesn’t work. As soon as you have a single voting polity, people will want to escalate everything to the federal level. It’s unacceptable to many in the US, for example, that Iowa might have a different minimum wage than New York. When climate change really hits, and California is fighting with Colorado over water and contemplating invading the PNW, we shall see.
Oh, I definitely assume that, but I'm on the side of "you should be permitted to release / reuse source" and less so on the side of "you should be obligated to release source."

(That is, I see software copyright as a thing we should fundamentally not have just like software patents, and I see the GPL's copyleft approach as useful in a world with copyright law and I gladly write GPL software because we live in that world, but I don't think it by itself is justification to retain the leverage of copyright.)
> I think you are unnecessarily making this political

GP is just highlighting that India's ruling party made this unnecessarily political. I'm not sure why it's being downvoted when it's factually accurate and is interesting in the context of the discussion. This is exactly the same thing that was going on in the Soviet Union where space project schedules were dictated by key party dates and celebrations. Not sure if it was a factor here, but multiple Soviet missions suffered due to being pushed to meet politically motivated party deadlines.

Most of the science is indeed onboard the orbiter. The mission was a success for the scientists.
What about having a disabled account (the option where you can continue to use Messenger)? With a disabled account you can't log-in to check the settings because Facebook will automatically enable the account again.
You are exactly describing the reasoning I went through when selecting Portland as the place to move to from SF.

Edit: to be clear, price for me was really the main reason to move away from SF and not to move for example to NYC. If there had been city similarly vibrant and interesting, large city as NYC or SF that is affordable I'd have chosen that in a heart beat over Portland.
The only thing worse is the GCP web console.

Kids from Around the World Photographed with What They Eat in One Week
While I agree that in the future we should strive to achieve this level of cultural cohesion, we're currently at a point where the incentive to do these things is largely motivated by technological needs by developing countries. As a result these countries gain experience in these fields that makes their research more relevant.

The space race is over, but it happened because the two most technologically advanced nations were competing for dominance that would essentially earn them the "world champion" title. That need to win the title is how we all got to space in under a decade.

Now smaller nations are competing for third and fourth place, and that's creating a technological revolution for them right now.

So think more long term. We've always been on the same team, but these are pre-season practices where we're all split into subteams and pit against each other to determine the roster. USA and Russia are first string. China and India are competing for second string.

When the season starts and were all wearing the same colors; we'll be unstoppable.
So you should buy new phones to avoid clicking on “yes” when it asks you whether you want to upgrade “later on tonight” and enter your security code?
I would say that's the maddening part of it-- the CLI tool and various language sdks and docs (and obviously the underlying technology) are incredible feats of engineering, and then someone said oh it's just some dumb html and css who cares about the web console. I see this in some engineers I work with- there is a prideful ignorance in anything UI or design related.

But why use background notifications for this type of data in the first place?
I’ve also been having trouble getting more information on this

People would ironically prefer to censor my interest at all, or thats how it seems
CloudWatch log filters are pretty bad too. I basically just use ctrl + f now in cw logs to find what I'm looking for.
I don’t disagree with that concept, but note that a lot of international cooperation that exists presently doesn’t help countries like India develop their own technology. Putting Indian astronauts or experiments on American space missions, for example. Taking their own shot at going to the moon, independent of US efforts, is an important step forward for India.
Well yes, but that's only the case if the app insists on communicating this type of data using the background push api.
It's not a small thing as it implicates millions in their daily lives. So a bad design decision on this scale trickes upwards and has huge costs for a society. The points the tweeter made were very well thought out. Everything should always be up for debate.
Chandrayaan 2 was approved in 2008 by the UPA government of Manmohan Singh. The mission was planned for 2012-13, with Russia to provide the lander. Russian delays forced ISRO to start development on its own lander in 2015.

It's just lazy to lay every action at Modi's feet.
I have to disagree. After using AWS & GCP, I find AWS “stays out of my way” much much better and has much better documentation. There are weird corners of GCP, like GCS “interop” mode and lack of full compatibility with S3 APIs that feel basically like Google is using dark patterns.

AWS is head & shoulders the better cloud provider. Google is just cheaper.

They still have that and it's a perfectly good way to get a quick look at what changes are being made to your train for the weekend or a coming holiday. Cheap, analog notices like that aren't bad just because it's not displayed on a futuristic interactive touch screen.
This reminded me of an older series of "Daily Bread: What Kids Eat Around the World". I had to look it up and submitted it here [1]

Also, the author has more series on her website [2]. One is called "The Heavens" about tax havens. One is called "Fathers" it is about fathers (as a father myself, I enjoyed it). There's one about "couchsurfers" (does not interest me, YMMV) and there's the one already linked.

Like Antarctica, exploiting off-world resources is not economically viable and thus remains mostly unaffected by the tragedy of the commons, for now anyway. Cooperation is easy when there’s little incentive for individual agents to defect.
I’ve had these same experiences, only with GCP, not AWS.
> I don't want crazy people to have guns

I realize that's a common position, but it strikes me as strange. It seems to assume that crazy people are the ones committing violent crimes. If that was actually the case though we would have huge numbers of mass murders and killings resolved with the defendant being declared not guilty by reason of insanity. That's not the case though, a finding of not guilty by reason of insanity is an extremely rare situation, almost unheard of in the court system.

The reality is that overwhelmingly it is not the crazy but the sane who commit the violence and the mass murders.

It makes more sense, based on not guilty by insanity statistics, to allow crazy people to have guns, and disallow the sane from having them.
Single data point here, but I moved back to my hometown after leaving NYC about 5 years ago, I work remotely, and I will never go back. Quality of life massively better.

Always fun when recruiters reach out. Many simply can’t believe someone wouldn’t want to move back to a bigger city in return for a much higher paycheck (which I politely explain is effectively less money than I make now, due to costs of living).

There aren't many countries in the EU, which emphatically restrict Sunday shopping. Even where the restrictions are in place, trading laws can vary and not strictly imposed or adhered to. This can also be coupled with diminishing political appetite to choke the local economy.

'Gas stations' morphing into shops, is related to the phenomenon of channel blurring, rather than just exploiting the exemptions in laws/rules.

Stop it. I live in a 100yrs old house built with wood. WOOD. Concrete brick houses can last hundreds of years and possible a thousand+ years too.
How is that self defeating from the programmers perspective? Code reviews can contribute to growth as a developer, ultimately helping ones career. When a developer desires such reviews, and a company is either unwilling or unable to provide them, why should they stay? There are plenty of other companies around to work at.
Hmm, thought-provoking. I take issue with this post if it's proscribing all programming into these three camps. Most notably, I'm not sure how important camp #1 is, and I get the sense that there are several separate camps buried in #2 and #3. Another commentator makes the point that there's the smithy tribe, and I think that's a great example. At the end of the day, what it is that the code does seems to be variegated and broad enough that I look at #2 and #3 as two dimensional axes with a huge amount of sub tribes in between. There are definitely parts of #1 there, for sure: I think it's how we got to the current popularity of Python and Ruby, and I also think it's how we got from initial versions of JavaScript to ES6 onwards and TS.

Can somebody try to answer a real question for me, please?

I'm 30, single, a software engineer working remotely, making ~100k a year, saved around 70k so far. I'm not very interested in investing it in any kind of active business. So I see 2 options:

- buy stock ( some kind of index)

- put a downpayment on an apartment(house)

Both have pros and cons. I lean towards getting an apartment.
Something around ~350-400k with low HOA and taxes should get me into something nice, having smaller mortgage payment than if I'd rent it.
Say we're talking about San Diego or Austin. After crunching some numbers ( in a very primitive way ) I feel having to pay amount that is less than I would typically pay for rent and most of that payment going towards my saving is a very good situation to be in.

Can somebody run some sort of calculation with above variables and tell me something I don't know/think of?

Same. I work remote in a small town in SC (25k). I honestly can’t imagine having to live in a major city at this point.
The holy grail of cheap food is Italian. You can buy a large bag of noodles for pennies sometimes, and making sauce is cheap, but even pre made canned sauce is cheap enough to fit the $2 a day challenge. (If not $1 a day depending on where you shop.)

If you're desperate or just old fashioned, peanut butter goes a long way. Cheap day old sandwich bread or bagels found at a bakery, and cheese, like cheddar cheese slices, make $1 a day feasible. Bananas can sometimes be pretty cheap too.

Likewise, it's super cheap to bake food at home. This is how people ate during the great depression. They'd make pancakes, waffles, and other sorts of items. I don't know what the price of Bisquick is because I just make this kind of thing from scratch when I'm in the mood, but it's mostly the price of milk. Some items take an egg, but eggs tend to be optional when it comes to breakfast cooking, especially if you're making Swedish pancakes (so good!) or crepes or similar.

Then there is the standard:

- Rice

- Corn chips and beans

- Vegetables are cheap, and quite good steamed or as a stir fry.

- Potatoes. They can be had for cheap, are quite filling, and left over potatoes from dinner can be used for breakfast. eg, mashed potato biscuits.

- Chicken can be quite cheap, but you'd be using very little. You can make a soy chicken, veggy, rice dish on the cheap, for example.

- And as odd as it sounds, there are a lot of stack foods and dessert foods you can get in super markets that are filling compared to their cost. Eg, pretzels or Doritos. A larger bag is around $2 and can be broken up into multiple meals. Or, eg, at Trader Joe's they have a box of pralines for $2 that can fill one up for a day. These foods can add variety to the cheaper foods (like rice) by eating a bit a day.

And, possibly the most surprising bit, if you're living it up, at $3 a day: Trader Joe's has frozen pizzas for $2.95 that are not only quite good, one pizza fills me up for an entire day. They have tv dinners for $2 or $2.95 too, but most of the time I'll eat multiple meals a day, so this kind of premade food comes closer to $4 to $6 a day without necessarily trying to be cheap. Trader Joe's has good cheap food.

Ultimately, if you want to take on a challenge like this, be prepared to buy everything in bulk, and be prepared stop eating meat, or eating very little meat.

edit: Oatmeal and Cream of Wheat. A meal is ~20 cents and it will fill you up.
Sure, when increasing a regions housing supply it matters what kind of housing is being added. Adding single family homes in the suburbs is different than a 60 story apartment building down town.

The markets responds differently to price drops. Land lords care about occupancy and generally respond more quickly than people selling their homes who will wait longer.
Microsoft servers instead?
So true.

Won't go very far anywhere in the US, but it'll go a bit further around Canton, MS than it will in Houston, TX. But yeah, you're screwed either way.
This is pretty typical for ISRO, or any government entity. It's not even political. If you see the older livestreams, you'll see a podium bought to the mission control room floor, where the ISRO bigwigs will deliver their remarks and congratulations. Wouldn't surprise me if this is followed by a "Vote of Thanks" and presenting of a bouquet.

I believe .net works like that, more or less, although the libraries ("assemblies") are not statically linked. Assemblies declares a dependencies on a particular version of an assembly. It is possible to override this in a configuration file, so you "redirect" to a newer version.
Losing a door can have very serious consequences:

The cargo hatch blew open and the cabin floor collapsed on account of differential pressure, disabling the rudder, elevator and rear engine controls.

This may well not happen on a 777X -- various other airplanes have lost part of their cabin structure without crashing -- but an unexpected event calls into doubt your design.

Good article, I would like to see some influential people in tech apply these principles instead of tweeting.
What’s really interesting is the perspective regular Chinese have on how to develop Tibet.

There’s a great article from The Atlantic, where they interviewed Chinese teachers and social workers that chose to go to Tibet [1].

One comment that stood out was this: “First, I will use my friendship to help [the Tibetans]. But if they refuse my friendship, I will use war to develop them, like the Americans did with the Indians."

Boise is at the wrong end of a fire-hose of people leaving big cities in CA and will likely have the same economic growth and social problems as other cities with similiar circumstances. Grouping it with Denver, Portland, Austin makes sense. Indianapolis I'm not so sure about.

Get a better computer? - to run a text editor? That's funny :)

My machine is a 16GB i7-4930K. It's no slouch, unlike the startup time for VS code.

I can't be waiting 2 seconds for my text editor to load, when i have one that loads instantly.

The whole point of notepad.exe and notepad++ is that its super fast.
This subject of FOMO vs JOMO concern me since I moved to the big city. You’re right in the most of it.
My conclusion when I’m thinking back is to have some base line (infrastructure) of things you like to do and things you don’t (I like art, music shows and tech talks about the future for example) - it gives you a better way to take a decision to attend or not to an event/meeting :)
Moreover, limit your weekly go-out and meeting activities to save the balance.

Thank you :)
> Porsche is spending billions of dollars to bring a very high performance track-focused sports-sedan to the market. Hundreds of extremely good engineers are getting paid millions of dollars to figure this problem out.

I honestly don't understand this. Almost all of us drive at safe speeds on public roads and sit in traffic.

Focusing so much on racing just comes across as a distraction. I love my Model 3, But my older Leaf was fast enough for me.
There is a difference between suburbs and living in the core of mid-sized cities.

Besides, HN is more than one person, with different views.
Why are we cash strapped? Everyone from the governor and the state legislature to the unions and private contractors seem to be hell bent on destroying it.

Why won't NYS put more money into the subways? Why can't we get driverless trains? Why do trains have to slow to a crawl if there is work being done two tracks over? Do we need barriers between tracks? So many low hanging fruits blocked by greed and short term self interest.
Wokeness paradox (2013 Edition): Can Ito work toward the "inclusion of marginalized individuals" while simultaneously discriminating against those with criminal records?

If Epstein hadn't recidivated, would Anand Giridharadas have bestowed a "Disobedience Award" on Ito for breaking the rules at MIT to rehabilitate an ex-felon?

Is a low-level drug felony "better than" soliciting prostitution (the charges on Epstein's public record)? What if the drug felony involves selling to minors?
There's a big difference between moving to the suburbs and moving to a small town.

That's an opinion. That's the whole comment that the person you're replying to said was an opinion. And it is.

> ...in an attempt to discredit my statements.

Nope. He wasn't even talking to you or about your statements.

You tried to do the same thing to me that you're trying to doing here, in another thread. You said that people "repeatedly" told me something when I actually just had made one comment in the thread at that point.

What's your deal?
The problem with FEMA’s recommendations is that they’re too general.

If you will have a water supply no matter what (I’m near the Great Lakes), Canned foods are a waste of space and weight. Dry beans, rice, a 5gal collapsible container and purification tablets (or bleach) are better.
people will bitch and moan that subway isn't "real" food. my experience is that it's generally middle of the road. I think in 20 years I've had only a couple of 'bad' experiences there (over dozens - probably hundreds). Very much dependent on the franchisor.

That said, it's still not 'convenient' in many areas - you still need to drive there, get out of a car, etc. No more convenient than other places.
I've watched birds land in front of me, turn their backs to me, and keep looking back. I wonder if they were assessing me as a potential threat for other birds. They do seem to let me get closer now.
All the new trains on the main red, green, and blue lines have that for at least the last 10 years.
I had a longer answer, but I think this short answer suffices: Everything is a terrible investment at the moment. Everything is overpriced. Everyone is expecting a recession imminently. Therefore whatever you do you will lose money, and lots of it. So, don't take risks, but do whatever will make you happier.

For example if you don't like paying rent to a landlord every month and not being able to decorate the walls, maybe you'd be happier if you owned a house. (This may not apply to you, it's only an example)
