>And as my healing journey has progressed, any ambitions I held to achieve business success on par with the Airbnb founders has faded, and been eclipsed by the realisation in order to do _anything_ well – from running businesses and leading social/political movements, to simply having successful friendships/relationships, a healthy family life and a physiologically healthy body – a healthy emotional foundation is of prime importance.

I feel also one has to realize that he can't have it all in life. I think its almost impossible and out of our nature to be able to achieve greatness in all fields. You might be the most successful CEO in the world and having the most money in the world but that doesn't mean that you are going to have and lead a successful family life as well.

Same way you can be successful at having a nice family and a loving partner etc but that requires time, time which you'll not be able to invest the time that being a CEO requires.

Thats my personal take from life so far - you have to decide what you want to be.
Wikipedia has a brief summary, but it is a similar issue as we see with colds and HIV: a highly variable exterior shell for the virus. About six years back, scientists found one region that is mostly "conserved," the docking station that latches onto a particular receptor in liver cells.

Hepatitis C, like HIV, comes in different groups, and it has six to target.

Spending 80% of your premium on direct heathcare cost means ( 1 / .8 - 1) = 25% cost increase, but that’s on top of the heathcare providers insurance related overhead. Insurance only adding 30% to total heathcare costs is a reasonable ballpark though likely an underestimation.
If you are accepting / rejecting work in 20 min units of work, you might want to rethink things a bit. The micromanagement level at play here would make any work/life balance out of whack.

Maybe the question to ask is — can I start bidding on work in units of 1-2 week increments? You’d still have multiple smaller tasks in that block. But that would start to give you more flexibility in how to organize you days.

Exactly why I love my lightweight extra large packable poncho.

It's completely water proof, but it's got a shit ton of ventilation, I can wear exactly what I need to stay warm and if it starts raining, sleeting, snowing, etc. on with the poncho, I stay dry and warm, all of me stays dry, and not just my upper body.

I've actually done trail running in my poncho, but it's a pain, frankly most people don't need all this "technology" to stay dry and warm. I use a cotton tee, a wool sweater and a cheap insulated jacket with pit zips, and a poncho. It works for anything down to about -20F, of course you still need to protect your legs for warmth, because the poncho protects them from the water.

My poncho is so old it could vote, I don't even know who made it, I do remember it was cheap, but not flimsy, it has some body so that it won't act like it's still packed. I may not meet today's standard for packable, but eh, what's an extra couple of ounces in the scheme of things.
>C says, you want object oriented polymorphism, you've got structs and function pointers, what more do you need?

No, C says your first mistake was wanting object oriented polymorphism. Your second mistake will be implementing it.

As a frugal person, I'm as concerned with durability as performance. Anecdotally, after trying cheaper membranes that disintegrated or lost their waterproof-ness after frequent use (daily bike commuting, being stuffed in a bag), I have come to prefer Gore-Tex for how long it lasts.
I like the idea of summaries (like you did) and wish HN would figure a way to do this also for points that people make in comments. Even if not same day or later.
There is a personal version (2 TB) of Dropbox, but it costs €120 per year.

Meanwhile the cheapest Google Drive plan (100 GB) is €20 per year, cheapest iCloud plan (50 GB) is €12 per year and the chepest OneDrive plan (100 GB) is €24 per year. There's also Nextcloud, which you can host yourself or pay someone like Hetzner to host you an instance (€43 per year for 100 GB).

I don't think the value proposition of the personal Dropbox plan is actually that good compared to really any of the competitors. Most individual Dropbox users probably don't need 2 TB storage or any of the other fancy features being advertised. I think I'm personally under 20 GB after all these years of Dropbox usage.
From a fast skim of Wikipedia that estimate seems to be overstating it by 2-4x

There are going to be a dozen more urgent sources of emissions, environmental damage etc before we start restricting pets. Humans in the developed world are emitting vastly more than their pet -- first discourage the humans over breeding, outlaw religious edicts that make a stand against common sense contraception, etc. Constrain fossil fuel use, consumerism, capitalism.

Thus far it looks like there is little to no chance of any of that happening, so a campaign about pets, carrier bags or drinking straws is rearranging deckchairs on the Titanic.

Something to keep in mind while looking at the benchmarks in this article:

* Nim's `json` module will parse the full JSON file into memory, now I might be mistaken but AFAIK Crystal doesn't do this. The JSON module in the stdlib is good enough for most use cases, but there does also exist `packedjson`[1] which could be more performant for some use cases

* Regarding the base64 benchmark, you may want to read this: https://forum.nim-lang.org/t/5363 (this article does not include the patches made by treeform)

Benchmarks are easy to game, the only takeaway that can be had from an article like this is that on average the performance of software written in Crystal and Nim should be about the same.

For me, it’s embedded. So I use C, mainly because as a professional company releasing a real world product my only other choice is C++ and I haven’t found a “need” for it yet.

I love writing C when I haven’t written C in several years. It feels nostalgic and simple and elegant in my mind, and then I remember all of the issues I run into and how none of them have good, clear solutions. Things like writing cross platform code or string manipulation or how often things I swear I understand actually have bizarre edge cases, things I thought were well defined behavior are actually undefined, etc.

Airflow Maintainer here: what you are describing is exactly what Airflow takes care of (or should).

I wonder what your issue is/was? Notebooks are supported by means of a Papermill operator (equivalent to how Netflix operationalizes notebooks) or PythonOperator/BashOperator which would just wrap around your notebook.

However to parralelize tasks Airflow needs to know a bit more hence you might have found it required to break up your notebook into individual tasks that combine into a DAG. Is that what you meant?
I suppose, but watching everyone mess about with a struct that has length and a buffer, and a dearth of built-in functions to manipulate it, is...ugh.

Yes, I got it from a blood transfusion when I was a child. The Hepatitis C virus wasn't identified until 1989, and blood bank wasn't wide spread until early 1990s, so anyone who received a blood transfusion before then is at risk.

If you're not better off working for a company than you would be if you left the company, then leave. If you can get a better offer elsewhere, or working on your own, then go.

In a voluntary exchange, both parties are better off than they would be otherwise - they both are both "getting back more than [they] contribute in."

If I buy an apple for a dollar, it means I consider the apple to be worth more than a dollar. At the same time, the seller values the dollar more than the apple. Both parties are better off by making the exchange.

Employment is the same: the employer considers the labor performed to be worth more than the compensation (or they wouldn't employ the person), and the employee considers the compensation to be worth more than the labor (or they leave).

If you're not leaving, then why not? Maybe you value the predictability/security of a regular paycheck (though that can end at any time). Maybe you don't know how to capture the value of your time working on your own (you can learn). Or maybe the resources/connections/structure of the company allows your labor to produce more value than you could alone, so your labor is more valuable for the company than it would be elsewhere (an expert on self-driving cars may not be able to add much value to a pharmacy, but can add a lot of value to waymo/uber/tesla).
Yes the spectrum is scarce in practice, but in theory it doesn't need to be. The problem in practice is that there are massive chunks of extremely useful spectra locked up in legacy telecommunications stacks that make the spectral efficiency of 4G look like an impossible feat by comparison.

If we had a magic wand and could instantly put everything on a standardized global DSSS/CDMA-style scheme (across any arbitrary frequency ranges), I feel we would have far more to go around.
Yep, my uni got O365 so good luck trying to convince them to consider Dropbox, too bad for those of us with Linux workstations! I have seen multiple unofficial clients but I'm not convinced of trusting them (or me configuring them) with valuable data.
There are many, but here is a personal anecdote. For background, I am a relatively high income software professional. Many years ago, I moved states, and in the process had to switch banks, so I closed my old account before moving.

Somewhere there was an automatic debit on one my bills for 30-50 US bucks that my bank paid, but since my account was already closed, it basically went into default. When I tried to open a bank account in my new state, I was denied.

It ends up there’s something like the credit reporting agencies, but for banks, and because of my $50 dollar accidental default, I ended up on this system. There are almost no consumer protections on it, so I couldn’t contest it, and I didn’t have any way to pay it or get it removed.

The end result is that I was unable to open a bank account for the next 5 years without a co-signer, even though my credit score was in the 700s and I had a six figure income. I was able to get credit cards, but couldn’t easily pay the bill without an account to write checks from. I had to go to check cashing places to get money orders (most banks won’t give you money orders or cashiers checks without an account), I had to cash my paychecks at the one office my employers bank had in town, and I could only receive checks for banks I could travel to. When I rented my apartment, I paid the security deposit in cash, but then had to drive around town when I got it back after moving out to try and find a branch of my landlords bank while I was on my way out of town. It was a nightmare.

There’s a whole system I fell into that I wasn’t even aware existed until that happened to me, and I consider myself a highly educated consumer compared to your average person. There are plenty of reasons to want cash in our society, even if you are not doing anything illicit or that you want to keep hidden. If, for any reason, banks are not available to you, life gets very difficult very quickly.
We should be grateful for not discussing PL/I (and Multics) here.
Sorry for the snark. This issue is a sore spot for me because so many people have reported it without having actually been affected by it, and because they tend to assume the designers were stupidly unaware of the issue, rather than that the issue is actually rather hard to solve in a satisfying way.

However, if you actually were affected by it, then you are right to be annoyed by it.

The particular case where someone developed a protocol mostly in one language and then later on started targeting a new language is indeed a case that I do worry about. The idea of language-specific annotations defining language-specific renames was designed for that use case.

I haven't worked on Protobuf in almost a decade, but Cap'n Proto does address this issue as I said -- without making everyone's code horribly ugly.
Every single tax has this problem. The better alternative is that the cruise ships be held responsible for the increased rate of asthma development there. It would be interesting to see how a business that is supposed to make people feel better is going to react when there is both a public outcry and a lawsuit against them for the very thing.

Would you as a person go on a cruise when you knew it contributed directly to the asthma of others? At that point, I think going on a cruise from a different port would be the preference of others, regardless of taxes.
Thanks, appreciate the advice, it's kind of a taboo topic
It’s a sweet thought but there would be far too many conflicts of interest for a single therapist to operate ethically.
Agreed - this feature seems useless in modern C++
It is difficult deciding if this is inspiring or discouraging. The way you describe the Airbnb founders it feels like they had some intrinsic ability or talent. I think I have always viewed failure as not working hard enough, or smart enough, almost getting there but just not quite getting it right. Reminders that you may be failing because you might just not have ‘it’, and that no amount of work will get you there are kinda brutal.

I always think back to being 8 years old and running with my friends. Some kids were just faster, others were slower. No one was training or working at it, no one was reading up on techniques at night. Some kids were just better. Are most of us just the kids in the middle trying to be the fast ones? Is self-acceptance, tempering of expectations and emotional growth a road to happiness or the silver medal of people who were just not good enough?
Not sure if it was intentional but GP reframes the situation -- one would not tolerate that behavior from employer, why tolerate it from one's self?
This sounds like you only have one customer. That's your problem. If you had six or seven customers, you would have leverage to negotiate with them.

As the situation stands, you would be happy with less money for less time -- that means that you might be in a position to hire an employee to do some of the work for you.
Some companies in the UK offer health insurance for private healthcare. The main advantage of private being you can get appointments much faster. I'm not really sure what the relative pricing is for private healthcare in the UK vs the states, so it might be the insurance costs reflect that.
There's a lot of consumer surplus.
I'm not sure about the general population, but this seems to be quite common in the homosexual population, especially among males. The big risk there continues to be HIV, but if you're going to get screened regularly anyway, might as well check for everything else.

(Source: I am a homosexual male.)

I'm not sure there should be all that much stigma attached to it honestly. There are enough non-STI ways to contract some of these diseases that I think it makes sense for even married, faithful, and generally low risk partners to get a round of testing every once in a while.
> What other languages offer a similar profile? D? Swift? Kotlin (via LLVM)?

Nim? :)
Governments add far less overhead in this area because they have more data and can thus use random inspection of bills for validation. Further, when setting rates every insurer has a separate negotiation involving even more overhead.
JSON is a really bad way to benchmark a language because it's often implemented in a different language.

Much better to implement a small program entirely in that language, along the lines of the benchmark game.

That being said, the calculation that a cruise ship generating its own power emits as much SO2 as 34400 idling trucks seems to hold up.
An old professor of mine was part of the medical research in these initial studies. I remember some of the big unanswered question about 0G were the digestive system and the vestibular system. Digestive because we had no idea if a stomach and the rest could deal with 0g and not just cause vomiting and whatnot. The vestibular (sense of balance) because the tiny crystals in your inner ear may detach in prolonged 0g away from the hair-like cells that transmit motion to your brain, causing permanent vertigo. Not a good thing for a pilot to have. There were many other effects that were unknown too, hence the space monkeys. Since they came back alright, it was seen as safe enough to send highly trained and very expensive test pilots up there too. Man, the Cold War, what a trip.
The quote remarks on the changing of the relationship, a point which is insightful. Several authors (from Zizek to Frederic Lordon) have noticed the dynamics of the relationship changing from pure unashamed totalitarianism in the workplace to the idea that the boss is your friend. The nature of the employee/employer transactional relationship has changed both in theory (management techniques) and practice (direction, micro-management) since the time of the old critiques of domination in the workplace. The employee/employer relation, it is argued, has not become more equitably transactional, but rather the old pre-Fordist techniques have been hidden and obscured - arguably more perniciously.

It is, if nothing else, an indication that critics of capital need to reformulate the conception of the employer/employee relationship. Nitzan & Bichler and Vrousalis take two divergent approaches to exaplaining the special nature of the employee/employer relationship as situated in modern life.

In my experience, if you're not doing programmatic access into your synced folders, onedrive and Dropbox perform similarly enough to not make a noticeable difference to the average user. But if you do large amount of read / writes to the folder, both of them struggle with it.

My company currently does this currently, as we wait for a more seamless system to be set up. So it does a write every minute of the day to a Dropbox sync folder. Which only syncs up once every few minutes. So essentially I do miss a few minutes in a day, but since it's just a human consuming the data, I don't mind.
I would be more excited about a phone like this if I didn't have to use Android on it... is there even a viable, open alternative? What happened to Ubuntu Touch?
Indeed, there is something very satisfying in constructing things that work (no matter the language).
A few high ranking Nazis were also believers in Hollow Earth theory. Though it's complete bunk, it is much more fun to think about than the "earth is flat" nonsense. At least this has made for good science fiction.
The JSON code is written in a way which forces the whole object to be loaded into memory - both in Nim and Crystal. It would be interesting to compare code clarity and benchmarks for a streaming JSON implementation though.

Agree that performance comparisons between Nim and Crystal are going to be largely moot. They're both "fast enough" for their target audiences.
Airflow maintainer here

If you have idempotent tasks, which is a best practice, it is possible to use Airflow in HA even in active/active. It might occasionally schedule a task twice, which should be caught but in any case mitigated by idempotency.

If you are looking for more Enterprise support you can reach out to Astronomer (disclaimer: I'm a advisor to them) or use a Google cloud hosted version (Cloud Composer). Both are great products.
