Not if you have time. And three bodies. If you've achieved escape velocity from the 2nd body (eg, Earth) but not the first body (eg, the Sun) you can keep swinging around the 1st body stealing speed off of the 2nd one each time.

Takes some careful orbits and a long time, but NASA does it all the time.
Few doctors make 600k, remove malpractice insurance and ~150-300k is fairly common depending on area etc. Remove student loans and a surprising number of doctors are making less than 100k.

In a tight labor tech market , unnecessary friction in hiring will be detrimental until you build a brand (your company is hockey sticking or the day to day work has wide appeal to devs) or find the “true believers”. In a downturn , go crazy , set up your gauntlet , and you will find the best that your network or advertising can produce.
I'm sure you're sincere, but this is off topic here. Please stop.
I checked out the Gold Mine problem on geeksforgeeks (assuming it is the same problem at firebase). Can you explain why it is "potentially impossible" to get the optimal solution?

>This isn’t a tiktok problem

This is a tiktok solution - a kid-friendly platform designed to for political "serenity".

Leave activism to western social media platforms with their trail of failed revolutions, genocide and death. Compare notes in a few years and see which model is preferable.

Likely a combination of the two. People complain about increased divisiveness, toxicity and extremist in social media. This is the Chinese solution refined post Urumqi riot in 2009. Almost prescient witnessing western social media platforms converge on Chinese style filtering in the last couple years.
This is a smart move by China. There are a lot of reasons to do big science projects other than accomplishing the science itself. One of the biggest is that you get a lot of the smartest minds around the world in the same place as one another. The country that is hosting them will receive more benefits than the other countries participating (though everyone wins in some way). You also are more likely to get the spinoffs that always come off from working on difficult projects.

China is also building a super collider that's larger than CERN. The big question though is if they plan on doing an international effort (and if so, can they attract international scientists while operating an authoritarian state?) or if they plan on doing it only nationally (seems much harder to do and not as effective).
Then the issue is the speeders. Problem solved. Ticket them.

The complaint in my neighborhood that I hear is that the speed limit is 25 and 35 and it’s followed. They just don’t like the traffic.
How are you going to handle articles that display images for infographics as necessary for comprehending the article?

Obviously that's the limitation of pure audio but I'm wondering if your process can simply tag or save an image that can then display like an audio book cover.
Ask HN: Someone should make a Codecademy for graphic design
Like Codecademy's interactive code editor to teach programming, but for graphic design.

If you could build an interactive graphic design editor and use it to teach different modules. And you could pass modules by submitting pixel perfect designs.

This very much depends on how motivated you are by external validation. For some people, the fear of losing social capital by not following through on a public commitment is motivating enough to accomplish stretch goals.

Source: used this technique to overcome my own procrastination trying to launch my first app as a solo founder. It worked, and I went on to raised a million VC to see if I could scale up the vision of a social goals app.

The downside of relying on external validation, as I learned the hard way, is when your self improvement startup goes down in flames, you really feel like a fuckup.

Interesting!

So the AltStore server, running on your computer, will sign apps using your personal AppleID and sideload it onto your device. Because of restrictions Apple put specifically to prevent such thing, apps will expire after 7 days.

So your local AltStore server will refresh app signatures and push them onto device to keep them from expiring.

Hacky and vulnerable to Apple's pushback, but interesting!

the SAT of the 70s were much more of an IQ test than now. I'd be surprised if Kaplan prep could raise more than 20 or 30 points on average.

Also, having used Kaplan's prep material... They're pretty bad. But that was in the early 2010s for myself so they might have fallen in quality.
On hypothesis is that strong/indepdent women prefer someone who they can control and they marry immigrants or men with lower IQ ability (hence less desire for autonomy and personal freedom) which reduces overall IQ of the population SAT is just proxy for IQ.
Many of my female friends who are at job and are indepdent are marrying wallmart guys (who are good looking but don't have good job)

What was considered masculinity is now considered toxic.

Women now prefer less confident/dominant men (confidence comes from success which has IQ and Luck components)

Masculinity is strongly positively correlated to IQ.

> feel like boundaries, which are antithetical to the creative process.

I agree with your overall point, but I wanted to point out that this is precisely backwards. Boundaries are essential to creativity. In a way, they are the source of creativity.

Or maybe I should say it as: the imposition and refinement of self-imposed boundaries is the creative process -- from the vast sea of all possibilities, you are winnowing down to one, the thing that you produce at the end. Artificial or external boundaries at the outset just give you a head start.

But that doesn't change your point, just the terminology. I agree that announcing projects can be highly demotivating. It's sort of like the winnowing process above is no longer happening exclusively in my own head, but rather I become dependent on what's going on in others' heads in order to match what I think their expectations are.

After telling someone else, half of the sea of possibilities is gone -- but I'm not sure which half, and drive myself crazy guessing. As you say, I'm now at least partly working for others instead of myself.

That's separate from the problem where announcing a cool project delivers much of the payoff, reducing motivation to work on it.
This was incredible thank you for sharing.
Demand more from the credit bureaus. Work with authorities to chase down fraud instead of punishing the consumer. If the incentive (or consequences) were significant enough they'd already be doing this. The current situation is most likely caused by it being easier for the bank to punish the consumer, at least in the short term.

It's just a pita and an interesting story for Micheal Lewis, but this can have a pretty extreme impact on completely innocent law abiding working class families who depend on their credit for housing, groceries, etc. There's a real infuriating injustice to it.
No. I never presented a binary option. I specifically said that the situation is nuanced, and that I reject black and white thinking.

I said that CCP is not caricature evil, and that many westerners have a hard time believing that. However, “not caricature evil” does not equal virtuous. Not being at the desert does not mean that you are at the north pole.

As for your notion that the goal of the CCP, as well as all other governments, is to maintain/grow power: I agree that that plays a part. I do not agree that that is the only part. I believe there is a mix between maintaining/growing power, legitimate national concerns, and personal advanced. Just like with everything else in life, human motivation is complex and multi-faceted.

But all this talk about “how much evil they are” is, in itself, a diversion from more productive endeavors. I see way more value in addressing weaknesses in our democracies first, and then ‘selling’ this, than continuing to argue how much evil various governments are.
That sounds suspiciously like making things a lot worse. How about helping them connect with the rest of society instead of codifying their existence?

Who’s expecting continuous growth? Population tends to level out with urbanization and education.

Food can be grown much more efficiently. If we get to the point of needing 1500 calories then we’ll be drinking soylent and having offworld farms long before we break the world.

It’s such a phenomenally large population if you’re just trying to grow x*1500 calories that we can hit it in hundreds of years. So should not factor into anyone decision to have kids.

I don't know their reasoning but here would be mine:

1. Updating when the app isn't running avoids the case where someone opens a link, etc. before it updates. This is probably moot now that most people have it open constantly and are probably using Gmail rather than a standalone mail client.

2. On a multiuser system, the system updater can work when nobody is logged in or the active user doesn't have permissions to install the update.
I really wish I did. This came from an interaction with a Quora user I highly respect. At some point I'm going to be motivated to research this more.

I can say that the context of the discussion was an assertion that I made that the Egypt-Greece-Hebrew civilization is what collectively invented the idea of good and evil. He corrected me saying that it was a major feature of this collective civilization.

Just now I tried going through Wikipedia, and I'm fairly certain what he was referring to is generally called Neolithic civilization. It was much more sophisticated than is commonly understood.

Just say "Trump was right". You will not be condemned by bien-pensants as a thought-criminal. At least, not immediately.

>I just wish he could get the USPS to stop seeing outbound international mail as a profit centre.

In other words, you'd like to pay less when buying from the US.

(There's nothing wrong with such a wish, but let's be clear about what you mean.)

>Plenty of Americans could be exporting a lot more internationally, but the USPS has chosen high prices and low volumes.

I know of no evidence that the USPS charges more to ship internationally than Canada Post, notorious among Canadians for high prices. On the contrary, it's sometimes cheaper for Canadians to ship to elsewhere in Canada by mailing from the US. (Discussion: https://www.reddit.com/r/canada/comments/6rcn0v/canada_post_... )

>As a Canadian that sometimes talks Americans into selling to me on Ebay, they find it a painful and costly experience compared to US sales.

That's because it is, compared to mailing domestically. It'd be surprising otherwise, for any country.

I've sold on eBay and Amazon for years and have shipped often to Canada and elsewhere; the procedure isn't that much more cumbersome. The vast, vast, vast majority of sales are within the US, however.

It's quite possible for an American seller (whether on eBay or Amazon or with their own online sites) to make money solely from the US market. Canada is one ninth of the US and a smaller portion of potential sales for American sellers. A Canadian seller, on the other hand, knows that the American market is nine times larger than the domestic one, so has much more incentive to a) learn how to handle international orders, and b) be willing to pay the higher postage rates.

edit : my example is one particular real-world doctor, not necessarily representative of any particular statistical cohort
The number of things that I have an impulse to accomplish vastly exceeds my physical ability to accomplish them. This used to cause me great frustration but I’ve learned that I get a lot of value out of thought exploration, even if I can’t tell the difference between something I’ll want to stick with and something I’ll want to dump at any specific stage in the process.

If I announce my plans and am left without a need to follow through, that’s great. Apparently I didn’t really have a need for the thing, I just had a need for exploration, and I didn’t know that’s all I needed from the idea yet. I have plenty of things I want to do and can move on to the next thing.
I've been working on this for at least 3 months (I need to check the calendar). Crazy how much time something like this takes to put together.

I’ve said this before here on HN when the octopus came up but I’ll say it again: these creatures are so damn smart I stopped eating them when I consume sushi. Many animals possess advanced intellect so I’ve limited my consumption of animals but it’s the octopus that has a special place in my eyes. What majestic creatures. The females find a rock to give birth to the next generation and slowly starve to death while doing so. As soon I learned that I thought of my own single mom while she didn’t give her life raising me or my sister she did sacrifice a lot.
It wouldn't surprise me at all if this doctor fits working class. In fact I know of poor people who fit that definition of working class even less than some doctors I know.

It is about spending, and a lot of doctors - despite their high incomes - are in debt with no savings - and equity in the house is 5% as anytime it gets more than that they take out a home equity loan for the difference.

Which is why doctors can feel like they are barely making it: with their spending habits it is a good thing their job is in demand.

> Natural selection dictates that intelligence, if possessed, will be put to use to further survival and reproduction.

I disagree with this. Intelligence will only further survival and reproduction if it helps whatever selective pressures the population is under. Livestock are a good example, they were selected to be less intelligent. You're wrongly assuming that the goals of natural selection align with human goals. The only goal of natural selection is gene propagation. In this endeavor, chickens are much more successful. They outnumber humans, humans supply them with food, humans protect them from natural predators. Who are we to say "the only measure of success is a human-like civilization"?

Objective C is good once its philosophy "clicks" with you, but any new development I would start in on Swift. Swift is a much nicer language, feels like compiled Python.

Same with Android, I would choose Kotlin before Java if it was my choice.

People still working with Objective C might be like I recently was: maintaining a sizable codebase which, unless Apple breaks something, porting to Swift is not justifiable to management.

Something I’ve found weird but interesting ...

Castaneda’s books which involve shamanic seeing of energy fields mention the observation that our minds (not brains, minds) are a foreign implant. Like, an energetic-pattern-parasite capable of interfering with brain function.

So, we’ve been colonized for a long time. Or, if you identify with the mind in “cogito ergo sum” fashion, we’ve invaded and colonized.

Just a thought ;)

Implicit await would be a nightmare. You could never tell looking at a given block of code whether it yields to the event loop or not, introducing invisible concurrency problems. Even static types wouldn't solve this without looking at every value and function return type.

You asked a lot of obviously trap styled bad-faith questions to try and force a clear edge boundary which I already said I cannot provide.

I also cannot provide a clear boundary between 'delicious' and 'disgusting', and those are also hand wavy and ambiguous and guided by risible feelings, but there is still merit and usefulness in describing them.

I, too, can ask tons of careful trick questions about "if I take a delicious cookie, then put a drop of pig blood in it, but you don't know it's there, does it THEN become a disgusting cookie? What if it was three drops and a snail but they were boiled and minced first? AH GOTCHA you can't draw a clear precise measurable line between delicious and disgusting, so there can't be a difference".

It's past the point where I'm interested in continuing, I don't see anything coming of this."

If it was true that you were past the point of continuing, you wouldn't have continued. Guess you do understand the idea of a fuzzy boundary after all.
