> it would take some serious dedication to scam yourself this way

Consumers every day go to extreme lengths to satisfy the wishes of scammers. They will physically drive to the store, buy iTunes Gift Cards and hand over the codes to them. They will take photos of passports, credit cards etc for identify theft. They will install whatever software they are asked to.

The idea that they won't go into some setting and enable "Sideloading Apps" which sounds completely harmless is a bit ridiculous.
Short answer yes. See: https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/wiki/Companies-using-Nim

People usually announce this stuff in the forum before this page is edited so you might want to search there as well.
Not only German regulators are like that... The bigger the country, the more absurd things get... Think Madoff, mortgage-crisis, etc.

“The Big Short” and “Fooling Some of the People All of the Time” are quite interesting reads in that respect.

And as one Finance professor once put it: “If you do business or buy stock in ‘the far east’, P/Ls and Balance Sheets are just fake”. Having seen what is done in some countries - yes, it’s insane.
I can understand how this might seem unfair to immigrants.

this part is completely wrong:
"If they have more workforce they can do more".

The demand for labor is not determined by the supply of labor, it's determined by the demand for those products. When companies higher engineers for example, they don't just go, "hey, we just had two brilliant engineers interview, so instead of highering 1, we'll higher 2." It never works that way. Companies need the amount of labor they need, and not one person more.

The reality is there's a vast oversupply of labor right now in most fields. Wages have been stagnant for a long time. And even in the bay area, average engineering salaries lag behind the local COL.

Furthermore, the US simply won't allow for enough housing to be built. Even with the population we currently have, there's no where near enough housing. this problem is only getting worse. Sure, it's just politics, it's a choice voters have made, but we're stuck with that choice. And, having more immigrants/increasing population makes it worse.
For a simple graph app I don’t see why you’d need anything more than what you’re doing plus maybe some Maps of category names to nodes and a hash table of node ids to nodes for quick lookups.

It doesn’t sound like too much work to create your own in-memory cache - if you even need it...

Graph dbs are more for searching for patterns in your data. In your case it sounds more like you just want to traverse the graph and display a subset of it.
I'm a native French speaker and I never know how I'm supposed to pronounce French words and expressions used in English (e.g. Versailles, bon appétit, déjà vu, etc.).
Same here, although within the last 24 hours, my neighborhood's chat is starting to look like a Twitter-ish hate-fest. If they don't stop, I'm going to chuck it in the same dumpster as Twitter.
1. 99% of everything is crap.

2. Crap buildings get torn down before beautiful buildings.

This article brings up many examples of modern crap, but ignores the fact that most of that crap will not be painstakingly conserved for centuries to come, as many of the good examples shown have been. There do exist examples of beautiful modern architecture.

The article also makes some valid points, such as how modern architects seem to be highly reluctant to use ornate details. The reason may be simple economics. The modern international bidding process heavily favours architects who can deliver a beautiful building for less money. Ornate details may please the eye, but they are undeniably expensive.

Some cities have started mandating a certain percentage of any public project be spent on art, but that art is often an afterthought. They'll build a utilitarian overpass and then regulations will force them to put up a hideous and overpriced sculpture in the middle of a pedestrians nightmare. The only people who will ever see it are whizzing past at 80 kph.

We have the will to make the places we live in more beautiful, but how can we better quantify beauty and find ways to fit it into city budgets? I feel that a system flexible enough to say, "Yes, scrap the sculpture and do the funky masonry." is a system in which ornateness could return.
I'm not exactly sure how I was incorrect. I said exactly the same thing you did, just with fewer numbers.

At the end of the day, you can't just download an app and install it. You have to go through hoops, all of which involve money, expirations, or limits.

Good for me as I don't exercise. I'm not sure why people believe that exercise is beneficial for life span - it is as much beneficial as it is detrimental. I see those people jogging for "health" right next to car exhausts and I keep scratching my head. If you look at the longest lifespans, you won't see any athletes at the top. In fact, you will see a lot of scientists who mostly live sedentary lives, but most of them do walk regularly, that's a fact, although not really an exercise. Aerobic exercise is the single biggest source of ROS', which is part of its benefit - it can kill pathogens, it can occasionally have a hormetic effect. Outside of sex, I don't see a any proof that jogging will make me live a longer, happier life (especially when you subtract the time spent jogging). Most of the benefits of exercise can be accomplished via diet and lifestyle changes. Maybe some flexibility exercises like callanetics are worth the effort though, which can be accomplish with simple yoga.
> As a german, what I prefer about english spelling... You do not capitalize Nouns in your Sentences

In the late 19th and early 20th centuries when German was still a lingua franca of various scientific fields (linguistics, archaeology), it actually was the practice of some writers outside Germany to not capitalize nouns. One sees this in many German-language scholarly publications from Sweden and Finland, for example.
Just because you never see the cost, doesn’t mean it costs “nothing”.
Truly watching others is the most natural way to learn. It applies to all aspects of life. I’ve often felt school, while important, was ill preparing people for actual jobs. Shadowing people is immensely helpful and something my school forced me to do and I was grateful for.
>The facade was a gift from the Ottoman Sultan Abdul Hamid II to Emperor Wilhelm II of Germany

Should we return all such gifts? Why?

Should France claim back the statue of liberty?
> ...in the assumption that their readers would feel the same revulsion...

I'm not sure they were actually so revulsed as much as whipping up indignation to sell an article. I don't think aesthetics was really what it was about at all.

Also if you want large amounts of detail, expect to pay for that either directly in lots of money, or in considerable unjust exploitation of a craftsman underclass.

(I also detest articles that say what YOU want or what YOU feel).
> That being said, lipidology is extremely complex but in the case of low carbohydrate diets the issue of having high LDL and HDL may not be as bad as mainstream medicine would make it out to be.

I'd 100% agree with this. But "your cholesterol sky rocketing a good sign" is not something the evidence currently shows.

> that everyone complains that they feel terrible. Things like dizziness, nausea, low energy/libido, etc...

Statins definitely have side effects, just on balance it leads to better cognitive outcomes instead of worse ones.

It's true that it takes time for mainstream science to catch up. But new preliminary research is new and preliminary and when it goes wrong it goes wrong more catastrophically than solid mainstream science.
I thought to myself: What is it about these demonstrators that makes them think that they -- a small minority of the population -- can legitimately decide to unilaterally remove a cultural artifact that belongs to all of society?

Then I thought: Even as a pro-life conservative Christian I would not tear down a statue of Margaret Sanger, founder of Planned Parenthood, if there were such a statue.

But it turns out that there is a statue of Sanger in the Smithsonian

https://710keel.com/black-pastors-demand-removal-of-planned-...

and back in 2017 a group of conservative black pastors requested that the statue be removed. Sanger was a big proponent of eugenics, and she specifically wanted to reduce the number of blacks in this country.

But the Smithsonian refused.

Which goes to show that leftist organizations get their way because they are bullies. They use force to get their way and the powers that be look the other way.

When will we wake up and realize that these Marxist-inspired ideologies are based on injustice and hate? The silent majority -- black, brown, Asian, white -- need to stand up to the bullies on the left.
Habitat 67 in Montreal is a Brutalist concrete building (many cubes) that is generally well-liked and has been a desirable place to live for 50 years.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Habitat_67#/media/File:Habitat...
Can do! I've got the basic OS target as `freertos`, so in theory any FreeRTOS device could work! FreeRTOS has a decent amount of POSIX API's but you'll want the `newlib` and/or `devfs` extra components for `select` (or using uart's with socket api's). The other big piece is `LwIP`, which has slightly different structs for IP addresses than standard *NIXes. Between FreeRTOS/LwIP you could cover a lot of embedded development and chips...

Here's an example esp-idf project with a README describing the build and setup: https://github.com/elcritch/esp32_nim_net_example/blob/maste...

Here's the Nim Forum thread, if you want to chime in and discuss/help out! https://forum.nim-lang.org/t/6345

It's pretty rough, but it surprisingly stable. Nim wraps enough OS level concepts you could easily use Nim only wrappers without needing specific RTOS idea's except when you want. Wrapping vTask's with Nim's thread api would be awesome. I don't know FreeRTOS hardly at all though.

When Nim's async works with ARC, I wonder if it'd be possible to port LwIP or rewrite it in Nim. LwIP seems somewhat buggy. :-)

That is one of the reasons why I think Esperanto has too much more to offer to the World as an international language than English.

I'm not an activist. Besides, I enjoy so many features of English.

But the resources one must invest to learn it as a second language make it unreachable to a huge amount of people around the globe, providing breeding ground to the formation of "linguistic elites" and deepening social and economic inequalities.

Having contact with poor people in my country and others and being a non-native speaker myself make me very aware of that.
I love barbican, but it also has lots of green and a vision of community. Same for Montreal's expo habitat 67.

Some of the buildings in that article were revolting. That big white one with chunks for windows looks so childish and uninspiring.
Boston is home to any number of bridges that trucks don't fit under, most famously on Storrow Drive.

Rating truck/bridge interactions has become a bit of a past time on universalhub:

https://www.universalhub.com/storrow

Every year when college students move back in and out, the powers that be put up illuminated construction signs everywhere to try to keep the number of rental trucks on roads they shouldn't be to a minimum. They're mostly successful.
Another effect is that the sound variety in the language was reduced. The new alphabet has "n" for both "ŋ" and "n" sounds. Now, in year 2020, no one spells out ŋ. See "taŋrı", "seniŋ", etc.
This is a false historical analogy wrongly applied to a vague case of "business loops". Neither Carnot nor Clausius defined entropy as "disorder", they defined it as a coordinate of thermal interaction since it became clear that temperature isn't a coordinate, but instead a potential. The "disorderliness" character of entropy as a thermodynamic parameter came later.

Anyone who uses entropy interchangeably with "disorder", "chaos", etc. might be interested in reading this: https://aapt.scitation.org/doi/10.1119/1.5126822

The term "disorder" is defined much less rigorously then "entropy".

> The second insight in here is that if you allow the ebb and flow of disorder, your loop can pass between high and low potential energy states a lot more efficiently.

Regarding these ideas of letting "chaos-entropy" prevail in your business for short period of times only to bring it back to order and use the effects of "potential energy variations" to get higher outputs... Sounds like an excerpt from a poorly written pseudo-management textbook purchased for $19.99 at an airport kiosk.
Well it would go to a whole new level if you want to take away their only revenue source.

Microsoft may even just decide not to build consoles at all.
> Probably not much.

I hope so: this article assumes that for normal citizens, monitoring seems to be a problem, so it's only natural to expect the police forces to get upset for the same reasons. That being said, it's possible that they're already used to be monitored constantly.
I suspect you are projecting too much on their motives. It seemed to me to be a great place to establish neighborhood communities they could advertise to, with the side benefit of opening up communication inside the neighborhood as well.
What's unfortunate is how some people choose to communicate and fear monger. I've seen it used both positively and negatively- really depends on the neighbors.

Depending on the privacy agreement, would be very intriguing to see neighborhood sentiment analysis... Maybe pick out those racist neighborhoods to avoid (or join? Maybe you are into homogeneity).
How so? Do they pay you back ssn taxes if you leave?
You basically don’t have a pancreas with type 1. These people still had beta cell function, which most type 1s don’t have. It was 3 subjects and limited time. Large scale long term studies would be helpful.

Plus they got diagnosed is late 30s/early 40s. This sounds more like insulin dependent type 2. It would make sense that the diet could work in this case.

The diet of primitive humans was more similar to keto than to current developed country diets and it was in place for hundreds of thousands of years. The first big change was from agricultural civilizations in neolithic, less than ten thousands year ago. Current diet is at most a hundred years old. And specifically the diet that is causing so many problems is only fifty years old.
This is why I always skip medium articles. They often feature low effort content, and the experience is filled with annoying popovers or prompts.
Why would our bodies need to evolve to follow them when the mechanisms are already built-in?

Our body already contains the necessary pathways, enzymes and processes to switchover to utilizing fat as fuel. We quite literally evolved to do this...

That being said, I think this adaption was more of an energy conservation mode for when food was scarce rather than our ancestors intentionally eating in a ketogenic compatible manner.
Care to elaborate or provide an example? Also long-time pythonista here and I find the article's recommendations spot on. There is huge difference between returning values (a concrete list) versus returning a stateful object that yields values (a generator). Yet Python's syntax allows you to treat them as equivalent and it can lead to bugs exactly as described. A context manager is the Pythonic way to deal with stateful objects and it ensures that you manage the lifecycle of the object explicitly, thus avoiding a whole class of potential bugs in your code.

How would you handle the problem? Or do you not see it as a problem?
What do you mean by "inhibits mitochondria"? Actually, the lack of proper mitochondrial QC is the biggest culprit of chronic disease. Cycling from mito fission to fusion is the best approach to fix this and that's why people use metformin wisely in protocols, which do the cycling.
Indeed. A good example in English is Mary/marry/merry. Many speakers pronounce all three words identically, but many speakers distinguish them. Should the spelling be unified? Probably not, because they are three separate words that might sometimes sound the same in speech. Simplifying spelling removes any way of distinguishing them.

English is filled with homophones, and while you can almost always figure out which variant is meant through context, in writing the opportunity is reduced. (You can't ask a book a follow-up question.)
But they never took that information and went back to the first photo to figure out where it was taken.

Or am I missing something?
Indeed - there have been many cases of where when things have been reported is what gets graphed instead of the actual dates of particular statistics.

The lack of consistent context and framing around the human malware has made most discussions of it pretty useless, but easy to skew in a particular direction for those wishing to make political hay out of a trend (on either side - very few have clean hands in this regard).
Immigrants in Japan have the same experience too. We often make the same mistakes and thus have a shared understanding of misunderstandings. I would expect immigrants in other places appphave similar experiences too.
Sure, but to someone who's on unemployment benefits. It's free. To someone who's earning a little bit more than that, it's free. To someone who is earning enough to pay tax, they're paying a tiny amount. To someone who's earning more than 30K€, they're paying a few grand in taxes (which covers other public services also). To someone who's earning 60k€ they're paying even more.

But the important thing is that the person who's earning fuck-all can still afford it, because it costs nothing to them.
The guided tour is excellent. This architect had a real vision around usage and bought one apartment to stop it being refurbished.
How do you explain what Dave Feldman refers to as the lipid triad which is common in people that are on a low carbohydrate diet?

In this case, there is not sufficient evidence that those who have elevated HDL, LDL and low triglycerides have higher rates of cardiovascular disease...

Wait, what? So the rule isn't that the pronunciation starts with a vowel sound? Instead it's a more murky thing about how easy it rolls off the tongue?
Same thing happened to me once with a Welsh couple in Krakow. The husband and I could understand the wife but not each other.
Let's talk about immigrants that are being paid well, for a moment -- since Trump is seeking ban those people as well. (Also since I myself am one such immigrant, and I know several immigrants who were being paid extremely well, whose H-1B cases were denied by the US government under the guise of software engineering not being a "specialty occupation"[1]).

A friend of mine last year got a job as a L5 at Google, for around $380k a year in total ($190k base + $28.5k bonus + approx $160k stock). Plus a sign-on of $50k. First year pay is $430k. He's not doing rocket science, or managing. He's an individual contributor writing back end code.

Meanwhile, there are folks doing a similar jobs in Canada, who are making 100k CAD (on the high end), which is $73k USD. And the cost of living in big cities in Canada is shockingly high.

Now, you were saying something about bay area salaries being low? The salaries are, if anything, over the top insanely high.

Also, I'm trying to understand why companies go through all the processing delays, legal costs, frequent unjust denials since 2017, to hire someone who is not a citizen, while paying them well above the median for the job, if there is a supposed oversupply of talented top-tier skilled people who are looking for a job. The truth i that oversupply myth is just a lie, spun by people with anti-immigrant animus, plain and simple.

I can't fathom the head space you would have to be in to think that salaries are low. Incredible arrogance and entitlement, combined with a generous dose of xenophobia probably. Instead of being thankful, there are people who want to cut off / deport / exclude people from working in the US (and I mean people making these high salaries).

Also, I know a lot of H-1B holders with high salaries. I myself am one of them. (In fact I don't know any low-paid H-1B holders, but my social circles are all folks working at top companies or friends from other social groups.) The intense amount of hatred for immigrants on HN always continues to appall and amaze me.

I usually tend to refrain from commenting on these threads, because the toxic amount of contempt and hatred for immigrants that I come across in these threads is extremely upsetting, but sometimes it's better to speak up, than be silent.

Ok, I read both the links you provided, and it would appear your words:

> reaction from an entire community, where they end up chasing a Hispanic family out of town

Is a drastic overstatement of what happened.

Or did I miss something? Are there really only four vehicles in the entire community of Forks?
> Is there any hard data that the bounce rate increases if there is no image at the beginning? Are there good examples of pages where this image really ties in with and adds to the content that follows?

I don't think picture itself is the thing, human seek novelty and visual impressions come naturally. If you can afford to design each page to be slightly different and memorable you should achieve the same effect, if there is one.
> they delivered lower price for (say) 64 cores worth of performance, by putting them all on the same chunk of silicon.

Arguably AMD did the exact opposite - lower prices via splitting a processor into multiple pieces of silicon. (Chip price scale exponentially with area at the high end)
[worthless garbage from someone who doesn't matter; please delete]
I agree, this aspect absolutely sucks. I really feel, the people that have already been here for a long time should be eligible for citizenship to give them stability.

But, for the long term, this country really needs to start preventing "new" immigrants from coming because the US can't house enough people. Enough housing is not allowed to be built, so it doesn't make sense to keep having an expanding population in that type of situation.
yeah, but they didn't get rid of the mess, they kind of made it harder for German-learners to pronounce a written word (in comparison to the post-reform federal german spelling).

i.e. "Fuß" vs swiss "Fuss"

Swiss spelling makes it appear as if "Fuss" (with a long u) could be pronounced like "Nuss" (with a short u), whereas standard German "Fuß" is clear on that.

Prior to the German spelling reform, Nuss was also written "Nuß" and back then the swiss way of spelling had the appeal of avoiding an extra character that is specific to the german language (and wasn't found on french typewriters for example).

What I meant was a spelling like "Fus, Füse, Nuss, Nüsse" but "Gras, Gräzer" (instead of Gras Gräser).

z would be the soft s-sound represented by s in traditional german spelling.
s would be the hard s sound represented by ß or s in traditional german spelling.
