> His mother is getting evicted from an assisted living center in a few days and his girlfriend is sick.

That's awful. I know some localities have "paused" evictions and payment "holidays," but there's been a lot of unevenness. Frankly, I think there should have been a national to that effect, so there'd have been uniformity and no gaps.
That’s unfortunately a problem for people who use macOS.
Just tax them.
Define “codebase”? You can have multiple services, user facing apps or modules inside a single repository, but if there are no boundaries coordination will be difficult of course.
Not as of right now. I am considering other distribution channels like Gumroad. Would that work for you?
We are on HN, not on a forum on healthy diet and recipe with this "bolster immune system" nonsense (that i accept reading on those forums). If something seems logical and simple, it just means you have to do your own research.

Either you are immunodepressed or you are not. Well, actually you can have an hyperactive immune system, that's what Dr house call a lupus, or a cykotine storm.

Really fast and with no details :
You can boost your protective response going out and interacting with other people/kids but this will not boost your immune system. I understand this is an easy confusion as the protective response is caused by the immune system but i assure you, this is not the same thing.
The article makes it sound like a medical term, but I think Ennui is "boredom" in French...

I often recommend to switching from a consumption mind to a producing one. Instead of looking for the next Netflix show that will cure your boredom, or for a person to entertain you, make something. Of course, this is easier said than done. Boredom doesn't disappear because you decided to do something.

One issue is that boredom is developed over a long period of time, to the point that it becomes a habit. Once you decide to do something about it, expect it to take just as long to part with it.

You can still watch your Netflix show, but make a schedule for your boredom breaking habit. Every evening at 6 write for 30 minutes. Try to run a mile in the morning without any earphones. Practice a musical instruments once a day. Read a book for 30 minutes a day. Nothing to drastically change your lifestyle, but over the course of a month, these habits replace your boredom.
I don't agree with your premise that development structure == deployment structure. There are plenty of good ways of splitting up development of a monolith without the huge devops headache of deploying microservices.
Suppose it's not the console. Suppose it's a disk file. You can write to it. You can read back in what you wrote out. That means it's a giant global state. If I understand correctly, writing to it cannot be pure.
But _most_ of the time you'd be using the one in your city.

If you are from Manchester, UK and you live there, how often do you need a taxi app that works in Bangkok, or NY, or Oslo?
That's incredibly insulting.
Getting Started with Pulumi Go SDK
Oh, all of those were heavily modularized to begin with. But that wasn't enough to keep them manageable. So at the end what we did is figure out which are the core components between the different modules, isolate what they did and put them aside in a smaller microservices, which were easier to track, maintain and monitor. What was once the monolith is now arguably just an interface/API for all the heavy lifting which is done by microservices. Again, my point is that all this must be done depending on the scale and complexity of your application. If you are going to make an authentication microservice for an application that has 50,000 users which simply fetches a username and compares a hash in a database, obviously you are doing it wrong. I am talking about applications which in the simplest of times operated on 24 different databases located in completely different geographical locations(the case of my first such monolith). Some of those databases used different engines. And due to the nature of the infrastructure and the requirements we couldn't simply ditch everything and start over from scratch. So splitting everything into microservices was the only option. And this is something I was working on back in 2012 iirc so back when microservices were considered witchcraft by most people. And yes, I'm talking about several million lines of code and 2 developers - my inexperienced out of uni ass, and an utterly conservative dev twice my age. Took us around 6 months but the project was extremely successful.

There is this trend in technology - every few years everyone changes their minds about everything:

* 2012 - sql is the best.

* 2016 - sql sucks, nosql is the future

* 2020 - nosql suck, sql is the best.

* 2024 - {fill in the blank}.

The same thing is happening with microservices. But in addition docker, kubernetes and recently unikernels have joined the party. The concept is the same though.

What I am trying to say is that either of those can be good or bad in different scenarios. It's a question of picking the most appropriate one for the situation.
There is in fact a special exemption this year to the 10% tax penalty for taking money out of retirement accounts for COVID-19 related purposes. But make sure your specific account offers that exemption before withdrawing anything.

Nothing's stopping you from making ChanTube, GabTube, or whatever you find "acceptable".

“82% of new cars in Britain are bought using relatively new "PCP" loans, which let drivers pay less than the full value of the car.” - https://www.businessinsider.com/uk-car-finance-pcp-mortgage-...

So while I agree if someone says they are buying a “new car” it just could mean “new to them” I do think a lot of people do lease. I see a lot of young people with new BMWs etc, probably paying with money that they will regret not having put into their pension in years to come. Or maybe I should have lived a little bit more at their age.
It's the "if you can afford it" part that's at issue here. Sure if you have the money do whatever you want, but lots of people are leasing/financing cars because they can technically "afford" to spend 1/4 of their take-home salary on a monthly payment when they could never dream of buying the car outright even with years of savings.

They're living at their means instead of within their means, let alone beneath their means. So the moment any financial difficulty comes their way they're screwed. It's especially irrational if it's just for extra enjoyment beyond necessary comfort. Someone who takes out a personal loan to buy all the blu-rays he wants would be called financially irresponsible, yet it seems perfectly reasonable to some to pay hundreds of dollars a month extra for that BMW or Range Rover.
No-code is a funny term and I'm not sure what it means. I would understand if it was non-dev or something similar. But most "no-code" people I know who work on side projects can edit basic javascript/etc, but couldn't write much from scratch.

I'd imagine this group is the subset the author is looking at. If you want to look at people who actually can't code, they are likely non-technical, and not using a tool like zapier. They're startups probably look very different (consulting, etc).
If you post a sign on my front lawn, I have the right to remove it. It's my lawn. That's my freedom of expression to remove it. It seems like you just want it one way.
This seems like a great time for Amazon or Google to buy Lyft.

Amazon could bundle rides with package deliveries and get the pre-existing driver and passenger network from Lyft. Lyft was actually telling drivers to work with Amazon when the pandemic started (1).

Waymo could take Lyft’s aggregated rider demand. They already have a partnership to transfer autonomous rides from Waymo to Lyft during bad weather situations and refer Lyft riders to Waymo vehicles (2).

that's..not the right takeaway from -XApplicativeDo, or do notation in general even.

I'm actually not sure what the C-like syntax you're referring to is? The fact that it reads like imperative code (even though it could be defining a parser or something not imperative)? Or the fact that it uses the word `return` (many use `pure` instead..`return` is free for anyone to bind a variable too)?
It's not made for "simple JS based apps", it's meant for large complex ones. Sounds like you're using React while you literally never had a use case for it. It doesn't mean it's garbage.

I'm 100% sure I fall under "nerd" as pg uses it--if you'd asked a random student in my year to name a nerd, it would've been me--and that's why I have trouble connecting with these stories. Neither I or my Academic Decathlon/programming/D&D friend group encountered that level of bullying. Cliques were there, but most people were in more than one, so the lines weren't very stark.

Your school sounds awful, I'm sorry. I went to a pretty diverse school with >2000 students, so there was some violence, but it was either mutual or gang-related. Petty teenager dickishness existed, but nothing like the kind of Stephen King bullies you describe. As far as I know, at least.

I admit I could've been oblivious, but for that to be possible already indicates a friendlier environment than these descriptions.
Are the metrics for this described somewhere? I find the top two surprising. From their numbers, Dorsey has donated $1B (26% of his current $3.8B net worth), while Gates has donated $36B (36% of his current net worth).

So....Gates has donated more as a share of his net worth and SIGNIFICANTLY more in raw numbers. What justifies putting Dorsey ahead of him?
That's because the top has looted the economy, leaving little or nothing for the rest of us. Its not a reflection on the bottom 50% at all.

When the issue goes to the SCOTUS, I'm sure that parallels will be drawn to how our society manages restricting vulnerable populations versus restricting all population.

Unnatural Language Processing
My first car was 10 years old when I got it, model year 1986. I did maintenance myself with the help of my father - oil, brakes, rotors, that kind of thing. It was 5 more years before it needed real work (bad alternator, bad fuel pump) and another 3ish years before major failure. A couple grand kept it on the road. After I sold it I still saw it around town for a number of years.

My point is, cars last far, far longer than we generally assume if you take reasonable care of them!
Just curious, which framework are you referring to?

Every time I see someone claim such a thing, it's usually only distantly related. Like it too has a render() function.

I mean, you can find old FRP phd/whitepapers but I don't think they prohibit you from ever saying "$X introduced $concept" without a disclaimer that it wasn't the first. So if you're going to insist, then why not share some prior art for the discussion?
If you, as a (presumably) successful graduate of a public school system, can't understand the textbooks and other modern resources well enough to help your own child learn basic chemistry, what did you actually get out of your public school education? And why would you want to send your child to spend years of their life there?

It's one thing to thoughtfully decide that it is best for your family to outsource education for various reasons. It's quite another to think that it is, by default, impossible to do it yourself.

Google had (still has, I believe) a fair investment in Lyft. Perhaps they could expand that.
I've been using DDG pretty exclusively for over a year, and I have no complaints. It also handles pretty tough searches reasonably well. Maybe I'm not a power user or whatever, but DDG works so well for me I'm not even enticed by Google's search (especially w/ the redesigns). I think of it less as a "real" search engine and more of a data gathering trap--meaning that aspect of it is more significant than its search result quality.
> “Many important, profitable, applications aren't used enough to make a native mobile app worthwhile. Most online shops, banking, festival ticketing, government forms, etc. Therefore you will not have to support both server-side rendering and an API for your native apps”

A well done native app is always, faster, more robust and more enjoyable to use than a web UI. Even if your app is used relatively rarely, offering a significantly better user experience means it will be used more. And that’s a very important thing.
In practice, none of them would actually have implemented it, except the only one with a history of going against party and lobby. Barack Obama ran far to the left of Barack Obama, but ended up compromising with Republicans for some absurd reason as he held both the house and senate, to the degree where he passed Mitt Romney's proposal while dragging his feet.

None of them except for Bernie Sanders was willing to recognize the system as fundamentally broken. Biden and Clinton and indubitably their Democrat sosies would openly profess to the elite that nothing would change.
I don't like rankings like this. I'm not saying all of them, but at least a few made their money off of the backs of others, being ruthless in business, etc. How gracious of them to give money to people they hurt in the first place. I'm glad they are doing good, but let's not pretend they were completely altruistic.

Also, a number of these people donated money years ago to avoid taxes, and the money was invested and growing. Its good we have it, but the "we gave away all this money" is an insignificant impact to them for multiple reasons.
Or they were impressed by you, but feel your market value is below the maximum they are willing to pay. When companies hire, they have a model of an ideal candidate and an acceptable candidate. We want x, y, and z, but we'd be willing to take 2 of the 3. XYZ is worth more than XY.

If the company only had one ideal candidate profile that was acceptable, that would change things a bit.
No one should have a billion dollars
Yeah no. YouTube is arguably a very, very public platform. Open to the public; entirely populated and funded by the public (i.e. millions of content providers and viewers generate all the income).

Is the (admittedly quite small) heading.

Also I noted that Brin (only one I clicked on) is in last place/#29 at $0 this month. So (and to find out was the reason I clicked) this is 'how much have these 29 billionaires donated this month'; not 'who are the top billionaire donors, all listed are big donors'.

Another question for language lawyers: if you are given a pointer to char, is it defined behavior to somehow cast the data before that into a correct integer? Assuming you have

typedef struct MyStr {

typedef char *PMyStr;

size_t MyStrLen(const PMyStr p) {
const MyStr *pmystr = ?;
const size_t *psize_t = ?;

return *psize_t;
}

How do you make a legal cast to get either pmystr or psize_t?

Incorrect. Property taxes are not part of the price setting.

You pay the max you are willing to pay for renting a place. You won because everyone else was willing to pay less.

If your rent is 2000 and property taxes are 200, and they go up to 300, are you willing/able to pay more?

Land taxes carry no dead weight.

http://wealthandwant.com/themes/Not_Passed_On.html

In general prices are set by the ability to pay, not by the input costs + some "fair profit".

Many landlords have no mortgage, and are clearing loads of profit every single month. Are they charging lower rent because they only need "fair profit"? No, they charge the market rate.

> Were lockdowns constitutional?

Yes. Courts have historically granted a lot of deference to the government in crisis situations. Also, "the Constitution is not a suicide pact" [0]

> Were lockdowns effective?

Yes. In pretty much every region, the flattening of new cases lined up exactly with the beginning of lockdown measures + incubation time, and this was also captured by unofficial measurements like smart thermometer data: [1]

> Could other measured responses have achieved similar outcomes?

Probably not. The aforementioned thermometer data showed no drop in fevers from the early half-measures like banning large gatherings, effectiveness was only from the lockdowns.

Although you have completely misinterpreted the situation the article does touch on the issues you have raised. Perhaps if you adopted an attitude of engagement rather than reflexively blocking and avoiding things which you feel go against your worldview, you'd learn something.
Actually I believe they sent a clear message that they want problems to get even worse. It is not even keeping the status quo at same level, at the face of this pandemic almost all world governments decisively pursued enriching the 1%.

I only hope more people woke up to this fact and form a critical mass but I doubt it.
One thing that separates writing apart from many other fields is how easy it is for non-professionals to determine when it's done well. In fact, the definition of good writing basically is whether or not it has the intended impact on its audience.

If you are moved, the writing is good.

This is in contrast with other fields where "goodness" also requires other longer-term less tangible goals that are invisible to non-professionals. If a program does what you want right now, it may still not be made of good code because it can be hard to maintain, or fail catastrophically in edge cases or otherwise lack in ways that aren't immediately obvious.

You can be a poor chef who makes tasty food if your personality causes high staff turnover or your ingredient choices and pricing kill your profitability, all of which is hidden from the diner.

But the point of writing is to get an idea lodged in someone's head as effectively as possible, and we're pretty good at evaluating whether that's happened. The only case where it can clearly break down is journalism where the ideas you transmit must be factual in ways that require external validation. A compelling news story that is false may be good "writing" at some level, but isn't good journalism.

The only social unrest that has happened so far have been the protests about wanting to lift or ease restrictions on states, and they were widely panned as a bunch of nutjobs.

It's easy to look down on people lower on the socioeconomic ladder. They're still human beings. They've been given this raw deal: For the greater good, you will now give up your job for an indefinite period of time, with no prospect of finding like employment elsewhere. You have no choice, and if you refuse, you are a horrible person and in some cases you may face civil and criminal consequences.

Injustice isn't any less unjust, because the recipients are somehow in a group one perceives as deplorable. Principles of justice and human rights are universal. This was MLK's ideological point in the Civil Rights movement.

Adherence to this principle is how I distinguish pseudo-activists who just want power and attention from those who really have justice at heart: Are the principles applied to everyone, or just to whomever it's convenient?
