Not only did it eventually generate code based on his example for the new domain he specified, it was even able to generate new domains.
There are some fixed costs with transitioning to a GmbH (notary, Handelsregister, etc.), along with all the time you have to spend to change the name all over the place, which quickly amounts to a few thousand bucks.

Given that the 1€ founding is an illusion anyway, as you will need to have some money in the company to pay your accountant, Berufsgenossenschaft, (the salary you are living off if you are working full-time), etc., the benefits of requiring somewhat less (maybe 5k instead of 12.5k) are not that great.
Damn, has the quality really gone down this much in the last decade? :(

I haven't been there for, well more than a decade, but coming from Vienna, one of the greatest things when visiting Italy (and what I missed most when I was back home) was that you usually got good espresso even in the smallest shack in the middle of nowhere.
Do you know the number of pages for each book? Then you could adjust the thickness automatically :)
I really realized it a few weeks back as well. I found a few things helpful. I turned on the Digital Wellbeing settings on Android. Limited Twitter to an hour a day. It makes me much more cognizant of the time I spend, and I end up not doomscrolling the comments and stuff like that. I also turned on Bed time mode, so its all black and white by the time I am in bed. I can still do it, but with limits and help me not fall into never ending holes as much. Also playing with Focus mode, so I can't really check it in the day until after dinner. Might bump it up a little earlier so I get out of bed faster too.
Now that you mentioned it I can’t unsee it ;-)
As I said, to me the whole thing looks like a giant log jam made of bad tools causing other bad tools and there is no simple way of cleaning up the landscape without whipping out a chainsaw and breaking existing workflows and use cases first.

However, if you are in the privileged position of being able to address every use case by compiling and/or cross-compiling from a nix or Guix setup for a project, I'd certainly go with that, too.

The problem there is that this is likely never the case if you can't just containerize your application or prescribe which system it will run on -- which holds true for a lot of software.

Its use in MS involves injecting it into the muscle, whereas this trial was using nebulisers to deliver it directly to the lungs so I don't think looking at MS patients would tell us anything useful.

Or, y’know, like everywhere else, criminals likely wouldn’t carry guns and certainly wouldn’t shoot people because “hey, I got caught” is not usually an imminent life and death situation and they’d risk a significantly higher sentence.

Of course, this only works when you don’t hand out 10+ year prison sentences for property crime in the first place.
It's not like the "news" is the source of truth etched in stone, is it?
I imagine most people were reading and probably understanding the "news" in March.
That's when Dr. Fauci, the U.S. Surgeon General, the World Health Organization, and The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention all made "news" by stating there was no reason people in the U.S. needed to wear a mask. Politicians making the "news" by eating in Chinese restaurants. I recall the "news" taking time to chastise the hoi polloi who chose to ignore the "news" and wore masks anyway. I think the general mantra was something on the order of "masks only help frontline professionals, blah blah blah... you uniformed morons". I'm sure it's healthy to have a healthy skepticism of the "news".
Semantics, no? Someone gained unauthorized access.

How do you implement constraints in that model? Something like a foreign key constraint, for instance.
Just want to point out all CDNs support HLS for on-demand assets. It’s just static http files. With HLS you just encode your file into multiple different nitrate files which are then split into small 5-10 second chunks and then wrapped in a text playlist for consumption. The protocol is still just static assets over http though.

All of the pieces have complex and emergent behaviors as they interact with each other. Many (most?) are hosted, not even fully in control of the team using them. Recreating this environment in a hermetic way for testing is either actually impossible, or so cost prohibitive as to be practically infeasible.

In Leviathan, Hobbes speaks of sovereign nations being in a "state of nature", defined as an absence of civil society where notions of justice and injustice don't exist:

Yet in all times, Kings, and persons of Soveraigne authority, because of their Independency, are in continuall jealousies, and in the state and posture of Gladiators; having their weapons pointing, and their eyes fixed on one another; that is, their Forts, Garrisons, and Guns upon the Frontiers of their Kingdomes; and continuall Spyes upon their neighbours; which is a posture of War.

Thus, successful sovereign entities may be expected to be particularly good at this activity.

> Same with gambling, I imagine. The utility of 107% guaranteed of this dollar is less than a less than one in a billion chance at a billion dollars.

Is this really true — from a rational perspective, and not one where someone idolizes wealth or being able to purchase "whatever they want?"

The utility of anything — including money — diminishes as you have more of it. The utility of the next hundred million dollars is less than the first hundred million.

So I don't think a rational actor would take the gamble.

>but most of their money is in their companies, stocks, stock options, tax havens, etc.

That is not "hoarding cash" - keeping your net worth under the mattress or in a savings account is hoarding cash. Perhaps, at the margin, a money market account.
Are you being pedantic, or, if someone is not worked up about "science has been settled", are they playing loose with truth?
Up front purchase price doesn't matter since it amortizes out over the life of the machine. All you're doing is paying up front for the downtime for service it won't need compared to cheaper consumer grade stuff.

I used to do facilities maintenance for a hotel. We weren't space constrained in terms of laundry so we ran a fleet of cheapo consumer machines. One was down at any given time but it was still cheaper than introducing fewer high grade commercial machines. We had some commercial stuff that was ancient and still worked. Didn't break much less but it was easier to work on (primarily because age) when it did.

Obviously if you want to minimize downtime because you're an absentee landlord who has to pay a PM company to do a visit every time a lid sensor fucks off then having commercial machines makes sense. In terms of dollars per load the cheap consumer stuff is in fact cheaper, assuming you don't live in a regulatory capture hellscape where you are supposed to have a plumber connect your drains and gas lines (or are willing to ignore those rules).
You have successfully ruined the formerly innocent and inconspicious image of this phrase in my mind.

That rather disregards the adults who will be required to be in close proximity to all of these children during the day, and the adults who will be caring for these children when they’re home.
I think Ctrl+F seems to be more popular than 'grepping' these days, although I would very much be in favour of bringing 'grepping' back.
They fact checked "Humans are not causing a massive 6th extinction" as false.

So we are causing an extinction as big-ish as the last 5 and that's settled science? Not allowed to debate?

That's why you can't trust fact checkers.

And a big wow lie from the fact checkers, it implies he wants coal fired stoves.

“Our work has shown much higher cancer risk from coal-burning stoves compared to wood-burning stoves”

Noone anywhere is suggesting people go to coal fired stoves. What a lie, clearly he is talking electric stoves, which is know as fact would save hundreds of thousands of lives yearly if people went to. This is a huge push in the NGO's dealing with health.

As far as I know, there is no heated debate about the evidence among climate scientists, at least not on the points that matter for policy decisions. The debate only exists outside of expert circles.

Yes, a lot of kids have learned programming becausw they wanted to develop Minecraft mods and Craftbukkit plugins. I had many colleagues doing enterprise Java that said their start was Minecraft.
This really connects with the "Cool URIs don't change" mantra.
This is not the original article, it was published on “The Daily Wire” and titled something about 12 climate myths based on this article.

But it is the same author. Maybe the “Daily Wire” piece was a rewriting of this?
Apparently less than 30% of nesspresso pods get recycled. And that says nothing about any other company's pods which probably have an even lower rate.

Absolutely. Pressurised baskets are great when all you want is acceptable coffee with minimal effort. A lot of popular home "espresso" machines come with one for this reason. Many or most Breville (Sage) machines come with one, even the "pro" machines.

I seriously recommend anyone thinking about a pod machine consider a cheap manual machine instead. I then recommend buying fresh ground beans from a local cafe. Not only are you reducing landfill but also supporting local business.
This is totally my experience with OKRs as well. At my last company they were a feeble attempt by micromanagers to manage a bunch of teams into being self-managing. But at the end of the day they were giving us solutions not problems to solve, which obviously didn't work out well. Most of the software we wrote missed the mark and didn't get used.
yes indeed, but you can find cheap PHP hosting, while for python or ruby it requires more steps
What do you think about our new remote guide?
While I'm sure the kids could survive if given shade and water, I'd have to imagine completing assignments on a school-issued Chromebook or iPad at home where it is climate controlled is a far better learning environment than in triple digit heat index temps or the cold winter in northern states. Sure, there will be certain places and times where this might work, but probably not Georgia in the summer.

"Science has been settled"

The science of what?
That we have climate change pretty much "everybody" will agree on.

The science of climate solutions is not even close to being settled. I have a Master in Energy (BSc in Energy) with focus on renewable energy. But try to get a group of professors from different fields to get along to see what is the way forward, or the mix of what. Nuclear energy, geoengineering, hydrogen, fusion, batteries of all kind, destruction of nature to create pumped hydro storage, capturing CO2, wind, concentrated solar, solar PV, biodiesel (and from what), ethanol, gas, Algae, bore holes, solar thermal seasonal storage, biomass, ocean energy and the lists go on.

So when you say that the science is settled I think your looking at the simple part where we see the problem but still has a huge way in what the actual solution.

People who say that we should just do this or that are usually pretty much always out of the loop and rarely know the downside of the technologies. It's not that we have 10 000 thousands of professors in the world that are just stubborn egotist. We don't have obvious good solutions yet. We do for some places, Norway have so much hydro that it's ridiculous, other places have other things and worst part is that many don't have that good options.

Please show some humility to people who have worked on solutions for the last 100 years.
Ask HN: Career advice with respect to programming language
I've been working for four years as a software engineer after graduating college with a Computer Science degree, where most of the core curriculum used Java. However for work I ended up using Ruby on Rails and Golang.

I have upcoming interviews with companies I'm interested in that largely use Java. I feel very conflicted about this because when I first interviewed for companies and tried whiteboarding in Java, I failed miserably because I was so slow and the syntax was so verbose. I later switched to Python but I'm still worried about the day-to-day life as a Java programmer. Though Java has a vast ecosystem, I don't particularly enjoy working with that language. I feel like Java inhibited my ability to think holistically in terms of software architecture and design, and I'm worried my design and architecture skills may suffer if I use Java regularly for work.

In addition, I have strong interests in contributing to open source software in my spare time, and many of the projects I'm interested in are written in Go, C++, or Python. I'm worried about the cognitive effort it would take to balance this work when my day job is in a completely different language.

Looking for advice on how to deal with applying/working for a company that has great benefits but unappealing programming language that conflicts with personal projects and dealing with fear of skills worsening

tl;dr

- Learned Java in college, used Ruby and Go for work

- Dislike Java because of verbosity, syntax, overuse of OOP, and perception that it obfuscates and complicates software architecture & design

- Have a strong interest in contributing to open source projects written in Go, C++, and Python. Worried that Java day job will make this balancing act of programming languages much more difficult

- Conflicted on following through with companies that use Java given language, personal interests, and fear of skills declining

Any advice would be much appreciated, thank you!
This simply isn't good enough. Recycling doesn't work if it either isn't convenient enough or isn't part of the communal fabric - and I'd argue that the second isn't there in small-to-medium town America, not to mention that some municipalities have been caught not actually recycling their stuff supposedly destined for recycling.

I'd say at a minimum, such a product should always come with postage paid recycling envelopes.
HDFS is the Hadoop distributed file system, but maybe they meant HDF5 files, which is a format the Pandas library saves in. That makes use of Numpy's n-dimensional arrays, so it's related to what these guys are working on.
Well I live in a country where we've contained the virus and far less than 0.25% of the population has contracted it, so you're just wrong. Maybe America can't contain, but they are the outlier in this pandemic due to their poor leadership and negligence.
