I'm really not mixing up anything. Please, kindly, don't tell me I simply have muddled thinking and no real validity to my point of view.

I appear to be the only woman to have ever spent time on the leaderboard of HN. I spent nearly six years homeless while a member here. I remain dirt poor.

Meanwhile, some of the men on the leaderboard are millionaires who made their millions in part by networking via HN.

The figures for women in leadership positions at Fortune 500 companies is something like 6 percent female CEOs and 17 percent overall. There appears to be one and only one woman on HN to have ever graced the leaderboard, a list of 100 names that has changed over time. So my brief appearance there puts me in a league of my own and well under one percent of those names is someone who posts as openly female.

Yet all most men here want to know if they email me is if I will sleep with them. So HN has been a huge networking fail for me and I remain dirt poor.

Since that poverty means I can't afford to eat today, I'm a hair crankier than usual about the whole thing.

Sexism is alive and well in the West and the gains we've made fall very far short of anything resembling equality.

I think I'm done here for now. My story is not remotely a secret. It's galling how I get treated here and then told to quit my whining about my poverty.

In discussions of gender equality, so it's on topic. It's just not welcome and this is a silencing tactic that helps ensure I can never get any kind of remedy.
If you're not whitelisted there are stricter rules and some non obvious pitfalls, but small senders with correctly configured servers does not get sent to spam in my experience.

When you pay Sendgrid or one of their competitors, you pay to not spend time dealing with this.

The overall result (in general) is to make spamming harder.
What an idiot. This has all the hallmarks of being wrong. It’s highly emotional. Lacks specific details. Best of all, it reveals a total lack of understanding of what is going on, which might have something to do with the fact that he freely admits he doesnt even bother to watch things all the way through because it’s... embarrassing? Pegging Elon as some fool with lots of money, the biggest indicator that this guy is just another academic idiot.

I just checked this guy out. He made yet another comment on tc about how musk is just another Theranos (obviously wrong, go watch the next booster landing if you disagree) and how his own device was much better, but couldn’t reach production because of evil venture capital culture, which musk is a part of. He really emphasized that his device was much better. Looking at the patents he filed, it was a sub-dermal drug delivery device with some electrodes to sense. So nothing to do with neuralink, not better than it in any way except maybe one could argue that the much simpler and practical device would be of more benefit overall in the short term. This guy is a liar on record as I have just shown. Academia is filled with these kinds of people. Loud mouths who are good at squawking the loudest to get grant money and brown nose all the necessary people to move upwards. Typical academia in 2020...
Unless that's your professional opinion as a psychologist after examining me in person, you're engaging in speculation as a backhand attack against my character, in order to pre-emptively disarm any further contributions to the discussion (ad-hominem).
As evidenced by the current state of society in the United States, the 20th century was the Century of the Self (Adam Curtis) and the downfall of community (Bowling Alone, Robert Putnam). The idea of contributing to the common good comes along rarely, and those who pursue it face an uphill battle. The system is tuned for individuality and appears to only be getting worse in my opinion. There is an “every man or woman for themselves” mentality that pervades everything. Extreme wealth is seen as the only escape from the crushing grind of modern life, and so people chase productivity to get it. This is deep, bedrock stuff, I’m not sure what can change the course.
Between the comments on the article itself and this HN thread, there's already more than 10 times that. It's not being exaggerated quite the way that you "hate".

To further prove how bad SendGrid is, Invaluement recently spent a ton of time and energy to create an entirely new "Service Provider DNSBL" [0] -- just for SendGrid! In fact, they just announced it about a week ago [1].

i hear ya. diff strokes, i'm 29. got a wife and child and could care less about really any job or work. seems like maybe adult-hood has ruined my aspirations b/c i dont want to do any of that shit you described. I just want to continue carving out a little slice of life for me, wife, kids. Helping change the world in small ways like nice human interactions, teaching my kid who will be more self aware than anyone we hope.

You seriously want to do all those things you described? Or are you just naming things that sound fun? The list sounds child-ish to me. God tier engineer??? The hell is that? One of the 10-xers?? Please give me a break. Just be honest, communicate clearly, ask questions, dont be silent. Guess what, you are already better than like 80% of the people at my huge digital org that is a fuckin shit storm actually.
"A healthy man wants a thousand things, a sick man only wants one."
your entire argument seems to be based on parents wanting to stay home and raise their children. Some might, a lot of people don't want to do this. If both parents want to work and have a career and/or a job that isn't a fulltime nanny, I don't see how the pay component you are arguing about is at all relevant?
A job offer. Seriously.

More verbosely, if no one's willing to hire BIPOC or women in the first place, then how can one ever expect to find experienced BIPOC/women devs in the candidate pool? And while that experience Catch-22 is generalizable to White/male/Asian devs, the lack of diversity in tech spaces speaks for itself in terms of implicit hiring bias. I, myself, have had spotty employment, absurdly hostile bosses and coworkers who have forced me out of otherwise technically interesting jobs, and have been unemployed since the pandemic started. After such a rocky start, I'm not sure that I will be able to secure another job in this field. (And sorry for the bitter tone here, but repeatedly getting my work evaluated on the basis of who I am, and how it must therefore be wrong, rather than on the content of the work itself gets very frustrating very quickly.)
If knowing for certain one way or the other would influence one’s choices, a truly rational agent (which humans only approximate) must always at least implicitly assign a probability.

Some people are appealing to people who believe it in their political campaigns. I think this is sufficient to make it relevant.
What makes you think other countries with rapid inflation don't manage currency supply?

If the monetary base suddenly doubles, the money will trickle down soon enough.

In US dollars case, it will trickle down to people and almost all other countries. Those countries will have more dollars in reserve, thus raising value of their currency or giving them low interest rates or ability to print even more.

This is extremely evident in the case of emerging markets like China. They will now get even more printed dollars in reserve and the only way to absorb it all is to print more yuan and allow more money to flow through China's economy, thus increasing wealth of the hundreds of millions still in poverty.
We're discussing different things, I think. As someone with painting experience, I'm focusing on palettes and value ranges, and what colors and values when put next to each other feel the most pleasing and 'natural'. You seem to be focusing on the objective experience of color, how 'pure black' on a screen is not truly pure black, and how nature contains all the colors we experience on an LCD screen, and more. I don't disagree with your points, these are just two separate discussions.

There is no reason to believe that the human mind can solve a superset of the problems solvable by a Turing machine, and a lot of evidence to the contrary.

Also, the link you replied provides an argument of efficiency, not an argument of possibility. It is arguing that we might use things that are not Turing machines because they can solve the problem more efficiently, not because they can solve problems Turing machines could never hope to solve.
How is harm measured, exactly? I feel harmed when a company makes huge margins on me from something.
> no casual customer to my knowledge has ever seriously asked what proportion of their peppermint tea and scones pays for a café's rent

Furthering your café analogy:

• How many cafés do you think pay an annual amount + 30% of their revenue to their landlord, and may only use the landlord's payment system comprising of landlord dollaz

• Would consumers of a popular café be seriously concerned if their café were suddenly closed because they decided to accept cash directly?
I know what you mean. I might feel that way a few days in a row every couple of months if I'm lucky and rarely ever more than 2 days in a row.

It's a weird, full-body change for me. When I'm in that kind of zone it's like my pre-frontal cortex finally took over control from my lizard brain. Or maybe it's just hormones.

I can do what I choose to do. To focus. To exercise and give 100%. Uncomfortable sensations like cold weather or spicy food feel easy to tolerate.

One other anecdote: occasionally I will have a day full of energy and getting motivated to work hard on things comes easily. Almost like clockwork, I will realize the next day that I'm sick (like a mild cold). I'm leaning to the reverse causation hypothesis (as the body is getting sick, it provides me the energy to work hard to prepare for the later downtime) but I guess it's also possible that whatever energy I'm feeling also leads to immune system weakness?

Anyways, just sharing some thoughts. If I could figure out how to live at that kind of level even one day a week reliably, that would be incredible.
Yep, the more producers and consumers of products and services are separated the more markets are improperly incentivized even without any government involved. B2B has a place in commerce obviously but much of the problems of enterprise software is because it’s designed for a lengthy sales process to meet decision-makers’ needs rather than for those that work under the decision-makers.
Twilio supports and soon will require TFA. I personally don't use SendGrid (use Mailgun), but I have to believe it should be coming soon (if not already supported).
> There's no need to persist any object or structure because

This isn't quite correct, at least for the library internals. Dear ImGui does persist UI state between frames, the "immediate mode" term only describes how the API looks like to the user, not how the library behind the API is implemented. The user code doesn't need to keep "widget handles" around, and there is no "event handler code" that is called asynchronously. From the user's point of view, control flow is entirely sequential, the UI is described and input events are processed in the same linear control flow context. But this is just what the library user sees, what happens under the hood is very different (e.g. the internal UI state is not rebuilt every frame from scratch, instead the API calls cause changes to the internal UI representation, those API calls just happen to also contain all the information needed to create the required internal UI state if it doesn't exist yet).

There's also nothing preventing the library from only redrawing what has changed, it just turned out that redrawing everything is usually so fast that only drawing what has changed would just add complexity to the implementation for very little gain (even complex ImGui UIs are usually a few dozen drawcalls at most and don't take up any significant chunk of the per-frame budget).

This description may be simplified and in details also slightly incorrect, but it's important to point out that "immediate mode" only applies to the API, not to the implementation, because this argument is often brought up by critics (who often don't quite understand what the "immediate" in "immediate mode UIs" is actually about) as a reason why immediate mode UIs can never be as efficient as traditional "retained mode" UIs (in reality they usually are more efficient than traditional UIs, and situations where traditional UIs are ahead can be optimized in immediate mode UIs just as well).
I used sc back in the day for many light tasks. I had no idea that James Gosling was an author. (Or didn't know who James Gosling was, at the time.) It's great to see that it's being maintained in some form!
Not just to you. The question comes up for others too. Hopefully before too long we'll be able to just go back to rendering entire pages without More links at the bottom.
Backblaze only covers the drives they have in production, which is a fairly small variation. Any smaller drives you see in their stats will be older (with more data), which means you might not see any data if you're buying a more recent smaller drive, and they may not have data on the highest end as they want to hit a good price to size/performance value for what they buy.

It's more "here's a review of what we have" and less a "here's a survey of what exists to buy", although you might be able to make some educated guesses about the latter from the former (but I would consider those low accuracy).
yeah the original comments seem kind of child-ish to me. In a good naive way. Maybe i'm being a doosh but that is how it reads to me. "Look i want to be a firefighter when i grow up, AND a policeman, AND a boat captain, AND a teacher, AND a 10x engineer. =) cheers all . look for small victories in life you dont have to solve world hunger to find satisfaction in your life.
But if it's fast enough for games, why make GUIs unnecessarily complex? Redrawing every frame from scratch is just much simpler than keeping track of differences, invalidating areas (which can go wrong), etc.

Perhaps in low-power situations it's a different story, though.
Pre-COVID that was the reality for many. But even post-COVID, certain types of commutes can actually help mentally "separate" the work time from home time. Working at home it's a lot harder to "go to work" and/or "leave work behind" when you "come home".

A friend used to say that majority of people who work from home fall into one of two types of people, the kind that never go to work or the kind that never come home.

1. It appears to be legal for minors 16+ to open carry long guns in Wisconsin. The law is convoluted, though, and there is quite some debate around this - it is certainly allowed for hunting, and may also be allowed for other purposes. (Concealed carry would be illegal, though)

2. Guns do not have to be registered to an individual in most states. (As in, other than the ones like CA, NY and NJ)

3. It appears to be legal for minors 16+ to possess long guns in Illinois, if you jump through the appropriate hoops - see https://www.ichv.org/legislation/illinois-state-gun-laws/

I am not sure but I think you misunderstood Mistersquid, in that he associates productivity not only with work but with other things and times in life too. That's why he speaks of unstructured time in contrast. He doesn't make an opposition work vs leisure, he makes an opposition between productivity and un-structuration.

Typically the people about whom you talk in your last paragraph are trying to be productive even in their leisure time.

Icculus.org's Ryan C. Gordon was instrumental for the Icculus community, many (proprietary) ports of software and Loki Software. For some history on Linux gaming, see his Wikipedia entry [1].

There have been fantastic games and emulators (and Wine) for Linux, its only getting better and better. Back in the days I played the original Counter Strike in Wine and it ran more stable than Windows 9x. I remember playing Dune 2 in Dosbox. I played Tetrinet in Gtetrinet. And something simple as Mahjong was part of Gnome and KDE.

The problem has always been that particular games didn't work on Linux, and that's now less and less, mainly thanks to Steam and Proton, and the long breath of Wine/Codeweavers itself. The only reason I currently use Windows to game is that in World of Warcraft I use a repeater (so that when I press '1' it spams '1'). I'm unable to get that to work on Linux, it works with AutoHotKey.

This conversation is increasingly weird. Enterprise SSDs definitely do have low-power modes. The Samsung PM983 I've used at scale draws 4W when idle or 11W active. A 14TB Seagate HDD like the one recommended in the article draws 5W minimum. The SSDs have a 5 milliwatt non-operating mode they can exit in less than 30ms, which is dramatically better than the latency of a non-operating hard drive (and turning a hard drive off wears it out, too). The SSD wins in this regard.

It's also virtually impossible to overheat an SSD. Samsung SSDs have critical temperatures above 90C. You won't reach this temperature just by operating the drive. The only way I've been able to make a Samsung SSD trip the critical temperature alarm was by pointing a paint-stripping air gun into the fan inlet of a machine while running an fio workload. HDDs by contrast are trivial to overheat, and are destroyed by doing it.
This is very wrong. Seneca did most of his writing as an old man. I believe he was in his 50s. You can certainly secure yourself earlier in today’s world.

Furthermore, a tiny fraction of Romans were able to achieve wealth enough to retire. Meanwhile, in today’s world, virtually anyone can do it.

(Before anyone pipes up to argue with that last point, I used to work in restaurant kitchens. All the Mayan and southern Mexican dudes working for minimum wage were on track to retire in the next 10 years. They lived extremely cheaply and bought land where they could afford.)
One could argue human intuition is just statistical sampling.

In effect, we might not be able to prove something, but we've observed that when used "assumed to be true" in other contexts, it seems to yield our expected result.

I don't see why we couldn't build a similar system of intuition into a computer as well.
I'm going to print this off and frame it! So so true!
> why not just render the interface to a framebuffer and then simply draw that when composing a frame and only re-draw the framebuffer when the GUI changed/played an animation frame

Some games did that in the past, and some might still do it!

But keep in mind that today the performance gains are so negligible when compared to the rest of the things you have to render on a single frame that the added complexity and the amount of things that could go wrong (glitches) are normally not worth it.

Also, copying that temporary framebuffer to the screen on each frame is not free and involves copying between two memory locations, whereas procedurally drawing things only involves CPU (or GPU) + the main framebuffer, which is super fast in comparison.
Fidelity outsources their debit card servicing.
