Yeah, that's like a really fucking lot. I was taking maybe half of that when I was extremely deficient, and about 3k currently (which I guess is still a bit more than I need, I just didn't take a blood test in a long time and assume I'm a tiny bit below the norm). And I weight way more than 60 kg you used for calculation.

These are exceptional times. The original Mozilla posts mentioned the effects COVID19 had on their business.

CEOs of much larger companies, with much larger salaries, have cut or take no salary. Here's a short list of some

Lyft, Fiat Chrysler, GE, Delta, Alaska Airlines, United, Southwest, Jetblue, AirBnB, GE, NBA

How is it not incredibly tone deaf to cut 25% of the company and not at least in a token gesture temporarily eliminate your salary when you're literally a multimillionaire.

Do you use any wysiwyg features of word, or is it literally notepad+git with a UX/UI that people are familiar with? What's unusual about authoring, editing, and publishing such that Word is better than the alternatives?

FWIW, I (as a programmer) would immediately disqualify any job candidate (except interns) who didn't understand why change tracking was important and know how to use one or more implementations of it.

Townhomes are interesting because that isn't always true.

I live in a very large townhome complex much of which is built on top of an underground parking garage. There dozens of townhomes here, intermixed with condos as well.

There isn't any land for me to put a tree on, there is a commonly owned green area (a very nice one!) but people can't plant whatever they want there since it is under common ownership.

I'd say most of the townhome communities around where I am at are arranged like this.

I'm familiar with row houses from traveling to other cities, but I haven't (rarely?) seen anything like that here in the Seattle area.

The latest trend is SFHs built on 3000 sqft lots.

Honestly at that point, a townhome complex with a common yard seems very preferable.

A bit of a side note here, but does anyone actually use this? I remember seeing it on an ANA flight and thought it was a funny feature. I suppose the intent is to message someone you know if you happen to be seated far away, but the thought of sending random unsolicited messages to any seat (assuming there isn't something to prevent this, e.g. message receiving is off by default unless you allow specific seat numbers) is a bit fun / odd. 'Seat 24B here, anyone else can't sleep?'
Not strictly related to procrastination, but the "just one tooth" method didn't work for me. Stuck with it for a few weeks, and then my motivation just tapered off.

What worked was permanently bundling flossing with brushing. That meant that if I _really_ didn't want to floss I didn't have to, but then I also had to skip brushing. Not brushing feels gross to me, which is why I think it worked. There are now a few nights a year where I don't brush my teeth... but overall it's a huge win.
The problem with your entire approach to this is that is effectively in denial of what the proponents of the most controversial speech actually say.

They do not subscribe to the scientific method. They do not believe in the use of historical analysis. They do not, in fact, believe in free speech at all.

I'm happy for there to be speech from people who believe in controversial ideas that I do not agree with, on the condition that they agree to a methodology by which we can establish truthiness

But the nature of today's most controversial speech is that is utterly denies any attempt to establish a methodology.

I don't want to "dismiss certain speech". I want to avoid speech that is predicated on denying its own fallibility, on denying that there can be any independent investigation of its own truthiness, on asserting that it is based on secret knowledge that if the listener could only share would immediately establish the utter truth of it all.

The conspiracies that have become popular on the right generally fall into this category. You cannot question QAnon, you can only believe. You cannot question "there is no anthropogenic warming", you can only hand-wave.

Useful speech is always subject to interrogation. Is always subject to self-doubt. Is always subject to invalidation. Is always contingent.

So ... I don't care what the content of speech is. I care about what the conditions for speech are. Speech that does not admit to interrogation, self-doubt, invalidation and contingency is bad, regardless of its content.

I am not advocating for the silencing of speech that counts as "bad" by this metric, I am asserting that its presence in our culture causes problems.

Yo might want to read https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/vitamin-d-supplements-do-no... before you rush to buy supplements, at least.
Currently, there are zero results when searching these comments for "specification". It's shocking how few programmers nowadays refer to the source material. During discussions on the CIWA newsgroups back in the 90s, everyone referred to specifications, DTDs and RFCs. On HN in 2020, regurgitations are considered the "gold standard", and conversations like this one include dozens of references to W3Schools and zero references to W3C. Sad.

This is anecdotal, but during Singapore's lockdown, one of the many services cut for about two months was curb maintenance. Being deep in the tropics, all green spaces immediately turned into jungles of flowers and weeds, and the butterfly population consequently exploded:

On the other hand, mosquito populations also increased and there were lots of people stuck at home as bait for them, contributing to Singapore's worst dengue outbreak in years:

So at least one lesson here is that, if given an opportunity to bounce back, many insect populations can and will.
Programming has grown enormously as a discipline since the 90s (not to mention the tools of the web themselves) and the specs are kind of a pain to read. I read them when I want an answer to an extremely specific question (what does the spec say about internal implementations of JavaScript objects?) but when I want things like API overviews it’s just faster to have high-quality secondary sources.

I'm no special talent, but you are spectacularly and offensively off-base.

I do support them with product choices, and also with thousands of hours of my time as a web developer over the years, always fighting to support Firefox in the projects I worked on, even when the product owners could not have cared less or were openly hostile to the idea of spending any time whatsoever supporting something that wasn't IE6 or Chrome.

I will not ship web-facing code that doesn't support Firefox.

With friends like these, who needs enemies.

I'm no special talent, but god damn. I'm not a friend of Firefox - I'm a warrior fighting for them in the trenches every day.

Hope someday I have "enemies" who spend a few thousand hours in the trenches for me over two decades and also throw money my way. Wouldn't mind an army of those.

To be fair, That was a test run, where the locomotives and infra where specially prepared and did take some damage. This was a long way from operating at 320km/h every day - and today there is a 10% safety Margin, so tgvs have to be able to run at 352km/h without special prep or damage in order to be allowed to run at 320km/h during normal operation.

For comparison, a tgv test run in 2007 got up to 575km/h on fancy new track, also with some prep but no damage, but operating at this speed would make little economic sense at this point.

My point is that since Mozilla is a technology product company, she will have to rely on advice (from within Mozilla) to make the most important strategic decisions for the company. As a CEO, that's a huge handicap.

At the same time keeping VitD active in your body requires Boron. Also boron is needed to keep your hormonal balance. And Boron impacts Zinc. And if Zinc is in proper place you won't get sick.

"How much could you get done in the next 12 months with the amount of capital you are planning to raise? If you’re a good company, you’re either going to raise your Series A - or Series B - in the next 12 months or have significant revenue such that you won’t need more capital"

I think getting to significant revenue such that you won't need more capital is an underrated approach that seems to be brushed off in the venture world. It's totally possible – if you really believe your equity is that valuable, then build something valuable enough to earn some revenue and constantly reinvest that back into the business to grow.
The issue is that the cost of running a recycling route is largely fixed - one truck, one crew, one day to run the route. That’s balanced out by selling the cardboard that is collected to a recycling plant. If half of the cardboard goes missing, then the cost stays the same but the revenue drops by half. The municipality is going to have to make up that shortfall by raising taxes or increasing the charge for trash/recycling hauling.

From the article: "Recalling the famous example of the pin factory that Adam Smith used to explain the division of labour, Russell imagined a new technology that will halve the amount of time it takes to make a pin. If the market for pins is already saturated, what will happen?

In a sane world, Russell thought, the factory would simply halve working hours, maintaining the same wages but greatly increasing the time that the workers could devote to the joys of leisure. But, as Russell observed, this rarely happens. Instead, the factory owner will opt to keep half the workers on the same hours and lay off the rest. The gains from the advances of technology will be realised not as an expansion of leisure but rather as drudgery for some and jobless destitution for others, with the savings enjoyed only by the winner, the factory owner."

This is, amazingly and depressingly, the only thing that will ever happen. This is capitalism, unfortunately, and profits flow up, not down. Capitalism seems to work best when the bottom feeders continue to feed at the bottom, in the same ways, without dramatic changes in behavior.

Can regulation fix this?

That's like asking if regulation can solve racism, or stop domestic violence. It can help, but it won't minimize it to such a significant level that it will mitigate the issue.

Russell's argument is great, but the cold harsh winds of our capitalist reality blow in the other direction.
The communist threat was factor. But living space, alias Lebensraum was the policy and reason for expansion according to historians such as Richard Evans.

A familiar dream, that kind of misses the actual challenge of programming is not the syntax. HTML really doesn't take long to learn - at least, not the kind that's being produced here. The hard part is unambiguously describing what you actually want. That's what code is, at a fundamental level - a way of describing exactly what you want in a way that cannot be misinterpreted.

Consider the instructions.txt given; 'This is an application called "My Bikes".'.

Okay, so what does "called" imply here? Is this what you want displayed in a title bar? Or is this the name that should be used for links to this application? Or is this text that should be displayed in large type at the top of the page? Or is this the name you're going to refer to it as in other "instruction.txt" files, when you want to link or reference this app? Or is this the label that should be used when someone adds their app to their phone home screen? Or something else entirely? I would argue that any of these would be valid interpretations of the phrase, but I'd bet that at least some of them would not be what the author originally intended (or even considered) when they wrote the phrase.

Consequently, you might find that you need to say something more like 'This is an application. The browser title bar should be "My Bikes". The displayed heading should be "My Bikes" in large, sans-serif font. When other pages link to this page, they should use the link text 'EricaTheGreat's Bikes'..." etc, etc.

And you can bet that pretty soon, users of this language will start complaining that "I have to type so much to get even the most basic things going. Could I just simplify it down to something like 'title bar: "My Bikes", heading text: "My Bikes", heading size: large, heading font: sans-serif"... "

Well look at that! In making this statement unambiguous, we've just created a very verbose programming language!

It remains as ever a delightful dream, but unfortunately one that doesn't actually solve the real problem - that natural language uses a lot of words to say things that are ambiguous and ill suited to producing the desired outcome.
Sleep paralysis is a state right on the edge of a dream. If you desire & expect a unicorn to poop rainbow ice cream on your chest, it’ll happen (with not very much practice either).

Definitely speaking from a place of privilege. Single moms living in poverty don't have the luxury to care for her mental health. She probably can't take even a few days off, voluntarily, much rather months or years.

Let me ask you (caymanjim), in the months and years you take off, how do you subsist? The average American has, what, less than $500 in savings?

Privilege colors your views on reality, and I would love for all of us to get there, but let's not imagine that this "isn't hard to do". It is. It really is.
