The Huge Male Secret
In conclusion, the item upgrades sexual execution by supporting an erection sufficiently long to satisfy somebody. The Huge Male Secret does this by improving blood course. When blood course is improved, more blood goes to the penis. At the point when this occurs, the penis remains erect for a more drawn out period contrasted with when there is poor blood dissemination. It's essential to think about an item from each edge when allotting a last evaluating. Right now, is evident that The Huge Male Secret is a high caliber, dependable, and exceptionally helpful item. At the present time, it is being offered at premium rates to get individuals in new regions intrigued, yet that won't keep going long. The one of a kind and elusive fixings that go into making each container will give individuals the outcomes that they need, and it will send other male improvement items a message. That message is that they will be playing get up to speed to The Huge Male Secret sooner rather than later.

Reminds me of my attempt to compute the number of Go positions, which similarly needed many TB of disk space and ended up generating 30 petabytes of disk IO.

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9167781
Number of legal 18x18 Go positions computed. One more to go

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=10950875
Number of legal Go positions computed

Not much point in breaking that record, as 19x19 is the largest (and standard size) Go board.
> Contrary to what you believe, no programming language community (not even C/C++) would consider such a loose interpretation of the standard to be a valid implementation.

Really? It doesn't seem obviously worse than deleting null pointer checks as C/C++ compilers do, which is widely accepted.
AWS found a way to reward the maintenance of amazons internal deployment infrastructure.

Apple and the yearly WWDC found a way to reward improving bugs and stability in operating systems (by labeling them as launches).

Hell, Microsoft provides huge lifespan guarantees ensuring that maintenance is a success metric.

The only gain is that you can employ a new full time employee instead of hiring a temp while waiting for the person on leave to come back. It's a minor gain compared to the hassle/risk of trying to circumvent a law anyway.

I live in South Africa, we have the exact opposite ! Count your blessings

-Here nothing gets returned but they will go out of your way to kill you for your cellphone.

-One of our past police-ministers had done away with specialised units (like child abusers etc)

-He (Police minster) was also found not guilty of committing fraud, yet the party involved was committed of fraud. "Shabir Shaik" (go figure usually it takes two...)

-Police routinely loose or just outright sell their own weapons.

-Police will also sell weapons that are being turned it (The S.A government really wants to disarm all the law abiding citizens)

-Police are routinely arrested for being part of the crime problem. From murders to drug trafficking
-Very few ppl trust the police here.

Count your blessings !
It could be someone who was in tech or was educated (formal or by oneself) on tech but switched to being a diplomat on seeing opportunities to make a better difference with their skills. Depending on the area of work, diplomats could highly benefit in today’s world by understanding tech better. We have allowed tech to dictate policies for too long and playing catch up. So any diplomat who understands tech well would be a great asset to policy makers and decision makers.
Ah sorry, I meant to say "Web Components can just be dropped into any framework" isn't true. Note that you can also use React components in Angular or whatever if you just write more code to use them, but that just doesn't provide enough value to me to overcome the downside.

Also note that I'm not "blaming" anyone; just explaining why it's not worth it for me at this point in time to adopt Web Components in my React applications. I very much like the idea of Web Components no longer making us reliant on the web standards process to finally add things like date pickers or typeahead components, but I just don't think it's there yet.

Writing a Reliability Strategy (2019)
I'd love to know what the solution is to prevent that eventually happening to a project, if one even exists. PyTorch seems to be doing better, but maybe that's just because it's a younger project. I'd be interested to see a blog post comparing Facebook's incentive structure for maintaining products to Google's.
In my experience "Programming in a void is worthless" was the main factor to put the language aside and lose interest. Only learning for projects drove me all along through Node, Golang, C# and counting.

Sounds nice, except programming is difficult and akin to magic for most people. Achieving what‘s proposed here, namely wanting to get a job done, but your requirements for it are different from how your friend uses it, is usually achieved by having a program that takes a lot of configuration parameters and then does the job according to them. IMO that‘s the more fitting analogy.

I wanted to buy a Japanese Pixel 4 because of the local train access, but it was so ridiculously expensive. In the USA there are constantly discounts allowing you to buy the pixels for a couple hundred dollars below retail price.

In Japan and other places of the world the whole thing is over a hundred bucks more expensive than retail. Over a 1000 dollars for a phone?

I'd rather buy an iPhone then. I ended up getting a second hand iPhone 8 for $250 as second device instead. Most of it better than most previous year android flagships and dirt cheap with 97% battery capacity.

I'm trying really hard to keep my "freedom" on android devices, but what the actual f. The only reasonably priced flagship CPU devices are from Xiaomi.

Most companies either don't have the ability to unlock the bootloader anymore or brick some random thing of the device or software if you do. Yeah sure the pixel does that and has good source code support, but over 1000 USD for 128 GB? Apple devices have better value for money and you won't have to play lottery about whether the next two android updates will actually work properly.

One future Home Assistant project that I would love to implement is a whole house lighting system that gradually transitions all the lights from white/blue in the morning, to yellow/orange in the evening to aid natural melatonin production. Such a project would have to be fully automated, otherwise I'd forget to set it each day. Blue LEDs are terrible for sleep and throw off your body's natural sleep pattern. I got the idea from the excellent book "Why We Sleep"[1]. It's possible that a similar HA project already exists.

I think it also helps that most cops outside the US don't err on the side of shooting people dead. Which is a direct result of proper gun control, Japanese cops aren't continuously walking around in fear of their lives.

FWIW, in plenty European countries, police officers are also treated amicably (and asked for directions, etc, much like in Japan) but there's also no 99% conviction rate. I think Japanese cops are treated with trust despite the scary conviction rate, not because of it.

If I were a cop in the US, I'd also be an aggressive dick. I'd rather rough innocent people up a bit too often than get shot because I was too easy going. It must be one of the scariest jobs in the world.
Python has idiomatic ways of implementing something like overloading.
- Default parameters, so variable numbers of arguments can be passed.
- Run-time type identification. Though not generally recommended, you can use it for slightly different implementations for different argument types.
Also a native speaker, "à une salle" is correct. The academy may disagree, but language is made by users, not a body of old farts chosen by politicians.

It is a mistake to conclude that if there was a big difference, we would have found it with largely observational data. There are many counterexamples to this idea.

I’m not so sure that the data proves that there isn’t much difference. The randomized PROBIT study showed less eczema (3 v 6%) and less gastrointestinal infections (9% v 13%). That is with 43% of mothers breastfeeding in the intervention arm versus 6% in the control arm at 3 months. You might not care about this at all, but clearly breastfeeding is doing something significant. It also shows, inescapably, that some kids will get eczema because they were not breastfed. This was my point that breastfeeding probably does make a big difference to some kids. Finally, this study showed that encouraging and supporting breastfeeding really made a lot more people breastfeed.

Again, it seems very reasonable to encourage breastfeeding. You might not like the way it is done, but this is a public health type intervention, and it is impossible to please everyone. Most of the population isn’t looking up the evidence themselves, so I guess you aren’t really the target audience. I mean I could whinge about anti-smoking ads on TV because I would never smoke, or the extra time it takes people in wheelchairs to get on the bus because I’m not in a wheelchair, but on the population level these things are very desirable.
Comparative difference in value between desktop linux users (either individually or as a collective) vs Android mobile phone manufacturers is very different.

From the perspective of the hardware manufacturer, individual desktop linux users are worthless, and they're unable to form a large enough collective to have enough money to matter either.

Individual Android vendors may or may not be large enough to try and force the hand. Google requiring this as part of the Google Play contract, thus bringing a large number of Android manufacturers together, is a very different beast.

That said, there's still no way to know whether or not it would work, but comparing the collective phone manufacturers to desktop linux users doesn't really seem like a fair comparison.

Linux desktops remain a minority share. Linux mobiles account for the vast majority of smartphones in the world.

I learned Polish mostly by telling jokes and having people tell jokes to me. Fortunately both Polish and Dutch have a near endless repertoire of them. Many jokes rely on language skills in order to be funny you have to at least get to the point where it can be explained to you. And of course, the immediate pay-off is that you'll hear a funny joke which is good for short term motivation.

Beyond that humor is very much cultural and learning a language through humor immediately exposes you to the culture in a way that talking about current events would not.
That will be a very educational experience for it.
Actually, you have the same liberties with software as you do with recipes. The only problem is that it is vastly more complex, so you can't really use the liberties.

You are not allowed to copy a recipe you found in a book. However, you can understand the concept and reproduce it in your own words. The same is true for software: you can't copy any source code that you see, but you are allowed to understand the source code and rewrite it in your own words. However, that is rarely doable, even for trained professionals.

Also, just like in food, while there are people who want the recipe, a lot more people that just want to eat, and don't have any desire to see the recipe, even less to change it. The restaurant industry is a lot larger than the recipe book industry.

So overall, the metaphor is perfect, but Stallman is drawing the wrong conclusions from it, and forgetting the huge complexity difference between the most complex food recipe and the simplest useful program.
Ehhh, what?

The usual way a thermostat works is the user specifies goal temperatures in time ranges and the thermostat tries to achieve them. E.g. our thermostat allows, IIRC, 4 different segments per day so we have morning (warmish), daytime (minimal heating), evening (warmish), night (minimal). The optimization problem them becomes one of achieving these goals.

To account for the dynamics / circumstances you can augment the input the thermostat receives from just the current temperature to also include information about the rate of change of temperature (velocity and acceleration). This is the idea behind PID controllers and it allows things like easing off the heating if the house is warming quickly so the thermostat doesn't overshoot the goal.
The standard library has something similar: https://docs.python.org/3/library/functools.html#functools.s...
I can’t imagine spending the better part of $1000 on a phone and not having $200 for wireless earbuds or headphones.

I’ve never once missed the headphone jack. Why do people clamor for it so much?

Pre-C usb on the Macs, I get somewhat. I have a ton of old style USB cords (which I solved by buying two dozen 4” old usb-to-c adapter pigtails).

I’ve never once wanted to plug any of my wired headphones (I have a bunch, mostly with 1/4” plugs) into my phone. What is the use case here?
The article links to the list of people of who disappeared pre-1970. That list is spooky as heck in some regards.

A lot of those folks were probably murdered but there's some interesting other cases of people just disappearing into nowhere. That was definitely a lot easier in a pre-Internet 24/7 connected world.
And all of Africa.
Interesting. Kaiser paid for a 4 hour ambulance ride for me from one hospital to another for immediate surgery. I think I remember paying like $100.

The Wren scripting language supports this kind of "overloading by arity" [0].

Wren therefore allows overloads such as `range(stop)` and `range(start, stop)`. This is more intuitive than Python's `range(start=0, stop)`, which might be the only function in the language that has an optional parameter before a required one.

Some of the repositories are a couple versions behind, but this is a nice effort, and I appreciate it. Now that PIA, Mullvad, and ProtonVPN all offer open source clients, this should eventually become a baseline expectation for all VPN services.
There is no reason to trust them just because their CEO actively answers people's concerns by saying "Please don't worry, please trust us!", but I also wonder: if they were trying to be evil, why make it so obvious by putting known bad people in C-positions? Why not just have these people work as anonymous "consultants", doing all the evil under the radar?
This was one interesting thing about my visit to China. Pay $25, see a doctor right away. In fact you can pick how good of a doctor you want to see (prices on the wall at the hospital I was at). This wasn't a small place - it's probably comparable to Kaiser in Redwood City.

In contrast when I was in a much much smaller "community" hospital in China I just walked in, talked to the lady at the desk, and she gave me a prescription. No temperature taking or anything...
No tools IaC tools I know of including Pulumi, allow to describe evolutions for infra. Simple use case - deploy canary instance, check it's health, scale down canary instance, update main pool of instances.

In other words, there is no way to express sequence of changes of the same object in the single run of IaC tool. We are forced to wrap IaC tools in layers of bash to simulate it.

> I am of the opinion that many people who want to learn a language don't have any real reason to learn a second language other than to say they know two languages.

I wonder what a modern Spore would look like. Both the procedural aspects and the graphics could could be made much better with the processing power available today.

The world of Spore after the water stage felt a little empty, I'm sure modern computers could generate more variety of plants and animals. Moreover, it always felt a little claustrophobic with the limited rendering distance. Spore should've been all about the beauty of ecosystems/worlds— I'm imagining Minecraft-like random weather events and biomes, caves and mountains into the distance. At the planet-level, I'm imagining something that feels more like a planet vast and diverse in weathers, features, etc. with a lot of detail if you zoom in.

Video-game aesthetics and video cards have also progressed a lot since Spore's original release. It could also take on a different style, less cartoonish and maybe more realistic, or more artistic, or both.

Again, I'm thinking of Minecraft, with sunsets, a vast sky, inspiring piano music playing in the background, etc. Maybe something in the style of Journey, with a well-thought out color palette, or like Breath of the Wild, with a unique art style and shading.
Just because people barter or keep scores, it doesn't mean they can't do other things, like be nice or give gifts occasionally.

Honestly, to cut the discussion short: do you have kids? I have two kids. Maybe I am doing something wrong, but they are really not all that naturally generous and giving to each other. Must be the toxic capitalist environment they grew up in? How can I activate their socialist genes and make them want to share all their toys with each other?

So ~$200 - $250k

Spot / Preemptible instances would not work, in fact before Emma did this calculation a lot of people thought this kind of thing wasn't possible on public cloud because of perceived instabilities in a multi-tenant system.

Git – The Big Picture
On the OS not being critical, I think that might be the case in 10 years, but large companies still have loads of internal desktop applications that haven’t moved to the web yet.

But agree with your point on Office, there are many large organisations which are literally running on Excel, and which IT budget would have to grow 10 times if they were to replace all these excel based processes.

And I must say that I haven’t seen any good alternative to Excel for a non programmer to set up a custom set of calculations, or deal with data. I am trying to get more people to learn SQL in my company, which shouldn’t be too difficult. But you are not going to write a company valuation model in SQL. And I had poor results at getting non programmers to pick up coding (I offered 1 week external in class courses, lots of people volunteered but 80% did not really do anything with it).
