This supposes there is capacity to increase frequency. For almost all lines in London frequency was already at max. For example the Victoria line trains run every 100s (it's actually harder to get faster than that) at peak times. Despite this the line is always completely packed (often waiting a train or two to get space) at peak times. Similarly on some routes it's a continous line of busses so capacity can't be added there either. Additionally stations that required lifts (elevators) can't increase capacity.

Now during Covid capacity was reduced but it's being ramped up again.

In London there is physically no way to physically distance people using public transport. The only way it'll be achieved is to get everyone who can walk or bike to work to do so. From my experience only a tiny fraction of the number of people who could bike to work did so.

Now the offices are too small to physically distance people anyway so there are issues there too.
IMO the main reason for using React, Vue, or Svelte is not SPA but having sophisticated interactivity with better DX than using jQuery.

A good example are sophisticated forms with realtime validation, dynamic fields that depend on other fields, etc.
Credit Karma's Co-Founder will share her thoughts on current fintech landscape
With today’s economic uncertainty and social anxiety, many people are grappling with existential questions about how they handle their finances.

Join Credit Karma Co-Founder, Nichole Mustard, and other leaders from our ecosystem for a conversation on the acceleration of consumer fintech in the pandemic.
The annexation of Taiwan is about access to the pacific ocean, or to be precise, about minimizing the risk of a blockade and about strategic depth on their eastern border. The communist party is literally playing grand strategy and from their perspective, they are surrounded by enemies. This is not nationalist pride, it is nationalist paranoia.
I'm not surprised.

This is the worst possible time to start an infrastructure project. The intermediate states matter, and construction sites are evil.

San Fransisco's Vision Zero is why I haven't been able to cycle to work in two years. In the name of bicycle safety, the city tore out my bike lane and replaced it with a ditch.

I don't really need it; I'm a confident vehicular cyclist and I'll take a traffic lane. But the lane I need to be in, which used to be a straight line, is now gated behind an extremely dangerous zipper merge around a half-finished bus boarding island. I have never been more afraid on the road than when navigating a situation allegedly intended to make me safer.

The sidewalks in my neighborhood are being widened, and pedestrian bulb-outs are being added to make crossings shorter. Which means that for the forseeable future, the sidewalks are narrow passages between construction fences, and it's impossible to social-distance with oncoming traffic. The sidewalks around intersections are completely fenced off; to cross the street, you must get within inches of the cars.

All of these things will be great to have, when they are completed in 2030. But until then walking and cycling are much, much worse than they would have been if things were left alone.

Quote from a Signal dev https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Android/issues/9628#issu...
It’s almost as if economics of ephemeral ideas is just math itself and has nothing to do with the trade of stuff

I get a laugh out of men who say other ephemeral objects can’t exist but stocks and 401ks, indeed even a specific currency or finance is anything more than emotional belief of some hierarchy

“They’re value stores!”

No it’s functional fixedness.

Decades of denialism of science by the god heads and y’all still follow them along believing they’re anything more than just copies of the pasts god headed would be authoritarians

Neuroscience is revealing much about how we transfer and carry on activity in our brains from one another. To suggest history can’t repeat itself seems to not agree with science.

The masters of commerce back in the day bought off the average person with emotionally satisfying promises and literally abusive practices of deflating the value of their efforts to maintain power

The literal expressions in the form of nation state conquest need not exist for an idea like “history repeats itself” to mean something that’s true

It’s random annotations on numbers that don’t mean anything except what we define the annotations themselves to mean.

We don’t get to have say so of course you’re confused. The narrative around economics is out of your hands.

None of these fellows seem to have understood Godel wasn’t talking about the universe. He was putting constraints on consciousness. They keep trying to find that complete recursive set of axioms for economics by ignoring it’s all just people

Have you ever seen the ASCII separator characters used as they were intended? I don't think I have. It's obvious the problem they were trying to solve, but it was too little too late. It doesn't help that they're control characters that aren't meant to be displayed so they're practically invisible.
Somewhat off-topic, but tangentially related: I feel like it is similar to all other kinds of disruptive protesters blocking the roads for people who are just trying to get to/from work

No matter the cause, blocking someone’s commute and making them waste time is not really going to convince them to be on your side, unless they were already on it. So you are essentially alienating the people in the middle and in the opposition to your cause, while not adding anything extra to those already on your side (+the possibility of some of those people defecting to the opposition, after being inconvenienced enough).
Not all banks do that

Mine is pretty vanilla; I built a home server for development/media. It's been probably 13 years since I built a computer so the experience of researching parts, etc was fun. My wife appreciates it's almost totally silent :)

It's been a great project so far; using it to learn Prometheus, pick up more Go development, host my own NextCloud, and run Plex and a Minecraft server.

One interesting usecase for a Pandas replacement is AWS lambda functions. If you have a skinnier package that can get 80% of the data-processing niceness whilst using up a smaller % the Lambda function's size limit this could come in very handy for many people.

I think that you will find your opinions much easier to get across to a developer if delivered in terms that are much less aggressive. Anyone doing actual work will find your approach rude at best.

The rational calculation here is very clear.

Taking 1000 IU of Vitamin D a day has pretty much zero risk.

Going outside in the sun around noon, without too much clothing (or sunblock, of course!), for about 15 minutes a day also has pretty much zero risk. (In fact, it likely has benefits other than vitamin D, such as nitric oxide production, which lowers blood pressure.)

There is substantial evidence that these measures would reduce severity of infections such as influenza and covid-19, at very small to zero monetary cost. It's not a certainty, of course, but it is highly unlikely that Vitamin D deficiency is actually protective against covid-19.

Therefore, all public health organizations should be strongly recommending that everyone take 1000 IU of Vitamin D and get some sunlight, and heavily publicizing this recommendation.

The fact that they are not doing this is sadly an indication that the people in charge of these organizations do not actually have a mental orientation of solving the problem. (As you probably know, there are many other indications of this as well.)
A very large fraction of all car trips are shorter than 10km. Those can be replaced with bicycles in most climates most of the time.
What's the problem with China's growth? China uses to be a friend when they can only manufacture T-shirts and socks, now a threat when they can even do chips and aircraft? The foreign policy of the US is a failure, wars in mid east and anti-terrorsim has costed too much, and that gave China an opportunity to grow. You cannot blame China for this. The business practice need to be changed for sure, but let's hope there is no war.

It is a particularly egregious case of the book being better than the series (and maybe even faster to finish).

It keeps the "cool" action parts while simplifying the world building and plot complexities down to a lowest common denominator that robs it of all nuance and subtlety of character relationships and motivations.
That's very true! Although, I don't think it used to be true; there used to be several different, incompatible font systems. There were many simple bitmap-font formats for operating systems/display protocols (Windows, MacOS, and X11 all had their own); and then there were more complex, vector font formats, originally designed for printers to use internally, but then extended to computers through desktop-publishing software (e.g. Adobe Type1, Apple TrueType.)

If you think about it, much of the original point of desktop-publishing software, back when OSes could only natively use bitmap fonts, was that desktop-publishing software could do WYSIWYG layout and preview-rendering for vector-font "instructions" (e.g. PostScript.) Fonts were indeed a lot like VSTs!

So if I see the pack of dogs from 100 yards away, and die of a heart attack as a result, what was the cause of death?

And I'm asking that seriously, because somewhere someone lost their job last month, and had a heart attack. (probably several people given the immense number of layoffs)

What is the "cause" in that case?

I'd submit that their are many causes, and some are degrees-of-freedom away from the actual virus (like the heart attack above).

Statistics are definitely complicated, and assigning a cause of death is usually not easy (maybe for a gunshot it's easy), but what about the 90 year old guy with hardened arteries, diabetes, and cancer who dies of a heart attack while in the hospital being treated for the flu? Any yes, there are tons of COVID deaths like that (basically any nursing home death).

I'd bet that five years from now we'll still be arguing about this.
I was hoping this post would be about what the world (and our programs) would look like if OOP never happened. But an interesting and quick read nonetheless.
Based on my and my friend's preferences, we prefer mobile app for apps they will be using a lot and trust, like Facebook/Slack/Twitter/Email, and want to use the web for apps we rarely use or don't trust as much.

Op is arguing that based on our intuition the data aggregated at that level doesn't distinguish between this more complex story and the simple one of "people prefer apps".

Yes. Given the current administration of the United States and the previous one, yes. I'm not trying to be political, I'm just stating what I think is going to happen if that were to be the case. As it is, the US is the main one antagonizing China after their ridiculous South CHina Sea claims.

Moreover, the US is closer to Asia than Ukraine. I mean that honestly. The West Coast -- and the greater US in general -- has a lot of Taiwanese and Asians who would be upset if China took over Taiwan. Much more Asians than Russians or Ukrainians. It doesn't hit as close to home frankly.
> Web developers are currently trapped in a mindset of discrete pages with jarring transitions — click a link, see the entire page get replaced whether through client-side routing or a page reload — while native app developers are thinking on another level.

In native apps, I'm a sucker for pretty transition animations, and I'd love to see those on the web.

But, every website I've ever seen with those types of fancy transitions for large pieces of content (as opposed to little on-page microinteractions) also feels slow, clunky, and heavy. As such, I've come to associate such transitions with slow, clunky and heavy web pages.

I'm not really a web developer, so feel free to tell me if everything that follows is stupid: It seems unlikely that our "current trajectory" can ever resolve this problem. Instead, we'd need an underlying technological shift in how browsers work.

Most large transitions are basically browser hacks—albeit ones we've used so frequently, and for such a long time, that they've come to be officially supported and accepted. To make them more usable, they'd probably need to work alongside the browser in some manner.
I have newer systems & games but I'd probably be just as happy catching up on all the reputedly-very-good SNES, Playstation 2, et c. games I never got around to playing the first time, or re-playing ones I really like.

This is true of a lot of things. A weird effect of having so very much excellent work available in so many media is that my quality of life probably wouldn't suffer noticeably if they just... stopped making new art of those kinds, entirely, for the rest of my life. Novels, games, movies, recorded music. I don't have time for all the good stuff that already exists, as it is.
I would say never regret your decision when the future turns out unexpected. You made an educated guess, and you could have no idea that they would be success.
> God forbid. I happen to like adblockers, inspecting app DOM, and applying custom styles and features with browser extensions. I can customize even poorly-built web apps like Youtube and Facebook with enough poking around and custom selectors. It's great.

This is weirdly lost on HNers every time this "debate" comes up.

Native apps are the wet dream of any website they complain about for having too many trackers and ads and data exfiltration.

The web browser is a fluke of history that gives users power that we don't have with native apps. Let's not be so quick to give it up just because you've never mitmproxy'd your phone to see what it's doing.
Quite the contrary. Expect to see a lot of M&A activity this year. These are times where companies with positive cash flow can do strategic acquisitions at a discount.

Basically he describes the process as one of continually looping through various mental stages as one progresses in their meditative practice.

I mean the effects of spironolactone and cyproterone on people who are AMAB are well understood and any doctor in the country can titrate your dosage to get you at specific levels. It's not without effect, obviously, which is why trans women take it, but it's not unsafe or dangerous.

The distribution of testosterone in AMAB people ranges ranges from about 200 to 1000 ng/dl so there's a massive range for "normal" levels and trans women are proof that you can go much much lower for an indefinite period of time.

None of this is to say that this course of action is a good idea or would meaningfully help the spread of the rona but it's not as much an open question as you're making it seem.

If American local governments want people to use bikes for urban mobility then they need to tell law enforcement and prosecutors to actually take bike theft seriously. In many cities it's tough to even get police to file an official report for a bike theft. And the few thieves that are apprehended are typically released with a slap on the wrist. I've seen homeless camps in the Bay Area filled with bike parts, obviously stolen, and the police do nothing.

I'm not going to ride my bike to the store unless I can be sure it will still be there when I come out.
