I've used Manjaro on two legacy laptops and a fairly recent desktop and I can only vote for it for almost anything you would want to do with your machine. It's a very lightweight and well-supported distro that has outperformed machines that are on paper twice the speed of the one it's installed on.

Not sure how easy it is to actually game on it though, haven't tried yet. For everything else however, Manjaro is an extremely solid choice, with a very recent kernel too.
A trend I've been seeing on HN and Reddit alike are articles that are not in depth, but allow the users of the medium in which they are shared to have a reason to talk about something. This post probably got more attention because it was a dedicated link versus somebody asking HN if they think React is becoming a black box.

I'd much prefer the latter, but it seems that links are the way of websites such as these.
Really? To me, it seems not optimistic but inevitable. I don't think anyone believes Emma Watson has actually done a porn, despite her appearing in the deepfake mentioned in the article. Being deepfaked is unlikely to affect anyone's real-world prospects in any way. That being said I can understand that it would still be hurtful and I'm open to having the content more tightly regulated.
By the American Revolution, newspapers were getting closer to our modern perception of them. But for the hundreds of years between their ostensible invention in Germany and the late 18th century they were quite different. Many only reported foreign news (in part to avoid domestic topics that may have been more sensitive). They offered very little in terms of editorial. In France, one particularly dull one was granted a monopoly, stopping competition.

Andrew Pettegree's Invention of the News covers this in much greater detail: https://www.theguardian.com/books/2014/feb/19/invention-news...

One other interesting anecdote from the book: For quite some time, the identity of who was conveying the news was paramount. A nobleman's wild story would be given more stock from contemporary audiences than several eyewitness accounts from commoners.

What percentage of Linux users similarly don't care about their window manager? I know Linux users split off to their own distro/tribe for all sorts of technical and aesthetic reasons. I kinda wish there would be a consolidation of effort behind one stack if for no other reason than to give macOS and Windows a proper challenge. Perhaps with the Evil IBM acquiring Red Hat the "last free distro standing" behind which everyone can rally could be Debian/Ubuntu? I'm fine with that.

It doesn’t seem like it’s giving an option here at all.

I certainly want to send the user a simple clickable link in an email and assume that the clicking of the link establishes validity. It’s how I know they actually own the email address they typed! (And that they are capable of receiving email I send them.)

I just wouldn’t use that validity to assume anything other than: “The person who clicked this link is allowed to create an account with the email address I sent the link to”. In other words, it must happen prior to account creation, not after. But the section of the guide is entitled “validating email addresses during new account creation”, so it’s pretty obvious that is this before the new account is created.
All of those images look more like heat pumps, which are actually ridiculously power efficient, especially if you're heating/cooling the rooms individually (since you're cooling only the hotspots, not the entire house to handle one hot room).

EDIT: The unit installed by the article's writer is an AC only, which is probably because the AC is cheaper than a heat pump. But a heat pump can both heat and cool, and are quite efficient.

The Google term of use is "Heat Pump Mini-Split"
Not precisely free; it moves energy around(1) by interacting with the inertial mass of other objects in the galaxy and applying force to them at a distance (the details of how, which objects, and how much force, at least in the Wikipedia summary, are really sparse).

In theory, if we could run an unbreakable string from Earth to Mars and twist it around a spindle, the differing orbits of Earth and Mars would pull that string taut and that string yanking the spindle around would generate energy that wasn't "free," but (like solar) would be free for all practical purposes. Do too much of it, and Mars crashes into Earth of course, but there's a LOT of energy that could be siphoned off from the planets' different velocities before something like that happened.

It's the same kind of "free" spacecraft get making a gravity-assist maneuver; they slow (or speed up) the orbit of the body they're assisting off of imperceptibly.

(1) ... of course hypothetically. The details of the mechanism are not well-understood and appear mostly theoretical.
Whole building climate control isn't really the problem, it's that unlike electricity, there's not a good billing system attached to it like we have for eletric and gas.

Other than "it doesn't exist yet" there's nothing fundamental about central air that precludes being able to bill individual units separately based on their usage. The fairest way for a group to pay for something isn't always diving the total cost equally among the group. Can you imagine if we did that for taxes?

Ethical Hacking Lifecycle –Five Stages of a Penetration Test
Something that I haven't seen discussed is why it wouldn't be a better solution would be for the code you listed to be a warnings or errors; get the user to write size_t then it is efficient without needing to go to UB. Another common example is a null-check after a deref; it seems like that should also just be a compiler error since the UB optimization is based on "you wrote code that the compiler can just directly tell is wrong, so it's going to pretend you didn't do that".

There's surely cases where it would be hard to suggest a "equally efficient without UB" replacement (eg when it wants to fuse two i64 into one), but it feels like the current position is too far on the axis of "provided with suspicious code, the compiler should just make that garbage run as fast as possible and call it a day"
Writing is creative and typically produces a final product that is subjective. However there are components of writing such as spelling that are not subjective.

> 2. You go to the specialist doctor for a visit. I recently went to two different ENTs just for a nasal checkup. One billed a claim for $1000 just to inspect my nose on a first time visit and billed it as a "surgery" procedure code. To be fair I signed a waiver stating I would pay things outside of insurance

In some states, that waiver is illegal (about 20 of them).

> billed it as a "surgery" procedure code

That's provider fraud. Much as insurers are horrible, they hate fraud, be it claims or provider.

Call your insurer - tell them what happened in the checkup and why it was not surgical.

> BTW.. in his example - just use move semantics, put the pointer as the 5th argument, and you'll probably have the same runtime cost

He talks about this. C++ doesn't have destructive moves like rust does, which is the root cause of why you cannot make the unique_ptr cost zero. It'd take an ABI change to fix this. This is precisely why the scenario is interesting. A lot of people (including you) thought that "just use move semantics" would solve it.
Treating a worker badly and having questionable labor practices, such as not letting someone leave the premises while not paying them, don't necessarily go together. I'm sure Apple treats their retail workers excellently and probably even pays them well. But to say "Okay, your shift is over and we're not paying you anymore -- but you cannot leave the site until we check your bag" could be construed as unlawful detainment in the eyes of an overly aggressive DA looking to make noise during an election year. Until an employee is free to go then they need to be paid for their time.

- Svelte seems to have a bit of a problem with large bundle sizes: https://github.com/sveltejs/svelte/issues/2546#issuecomment-...

- Svelte might feel (it does to me at least; although I haven't really worked much with it) a bit too magical. In React, you are explicit about the fact that you want to change your variables and how exactly you want to change them (Rich Harris seems to think that such explicitness is excessive verbosity); while in Svelte you just change a value inline, then boom magic happens. It may be a leap forward, like JSX once was; but it also has an uncomfortable feel to it.
Hooks do draw you in the direction of a wholesale replacement just because of their incompatibility with classes. I wouldn't consider that to be a bad thing but it does take some time to adjust to the change at first.

I think this sort of holds true for any modern news org in the west (and possibly world-wide). Look at the profit incentives and it makes sense which way reporting trends will go. The more outrageous/unbelievable the story, the more eyeballs; the more eyeballs, the more ad revenue. Some news orgs definitely take more liberty than others in bending the facts of a story just enough to carve out a demographic niche that they can depend on to keep coming back.
Other folks have mentioned that optimizing compilers are more aggressive these days. To that I'd add:

- More applications are talking to the internet and being exposed to malicious input. There's also more money to be made in finding exploits, and more people and governments looking. At the same time, fuzzing techniques are getting dramatically better.

- Applications are more likely to run across different architectures (mobile) and different compiler versions (faster pace of compiler development), leading to more opportunities for "something weird" to happen. Multithreading is also more common.

- Memory-safe languages have taken a larger market share, and the popular attitude towards memory safety issues is changing from "bugs are a fact of life" to "this is a drawback of specific languages".

How do people on the Maury Povich show manage to have five children? Or what about other Darwinian success stories such as this gentleman? <https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.dailymail.co.uk/news/articl...

I think the problem is that you want both children and an upper middle class (read: upper class) lifestyle. But that's not how this works. You are going to consume a lot of your resources in creating and raising children, but you will gain the wisdom to rebuild those same resources and in the end finish with more than you started (timescale: 20-40 years)

I find it very, very sad that Ember lost the marketing war. It was painful to work with for the first 5 years or so but then became a real pleasure. I'll never understand why anyone would prefer JSX over templates. I like opinionated frameworks like Rails and Ember because, even if it's not initially designed that way, a "right way" to do things becomes apparent over time and it's built-in, documented and blogged about. You could switch companies every month and be productive in days because you know where everything should be and how it should be done (mostly). Yes, you can do everything wrong and it will still "work" but it's difficult to get anything done the wrong way in an opinionated framework. When you find yourself struggling hard to do something that should be relatively simple, it means you're doing it wrong. In contrast, React gives devs more freedom to reinvent the wheel and so when you dig in to a new-to-you React code base, you're completely lost and must learn how the previous dev decided to architect things, which can be a total nightmare. Redux feels like a valiant effort to make React more opinionated and remove the opportunity for devs to repeatedly make bad bad decisions or write similar code in multiple different ways, but it doesn't fully solve the problem. I'd choose Ember over React in a second if they were equals in terms of mindshare but trying to hire someone who wants to work in Ember is nearly impossible.

What if on some other machine it doesn't cause the program to abort but instead returns a broken result? How do you cover that in the spec?

Right, so let's write these low-level things in C and not worry about the case of 'where the problem doesn't exist'.

> refrigeration grade vacuum pump needed here

My understanding is that some of the DIY units had a built-in vacuum pump for this step.

Edit: never mind, I think I’m making stuff up in my head. But I could see it being a feature in the future.

What makes a vacuum unit “refrigeration grade”? Other than recovering what you’re vacuuming if you’re doing maintenance instead of a first install?
Yup; mentioned that as point 3.

To put that in context: that was at the time ES was starting to introduce OO abstractions to the spec. and it was somewhat trendy to go in that direction. I never got the impression that the React guys were heavily invested in that paradigm, and they definitely moved away from it very quickly after first encouraging it in their API. Everyone makes mistakes.

As a side-note: I think class abstractions in ES are a feature that in retrospect is less of a great idea now than it may have seemed at the time. ES class abstractions obscure their own subtle issues (in a very similar way to the article's fake Twitter screenshot jokes about React hooks).
There are so many lower hanging fruit for reducing emissions of and sequestering existing carbon.

If you simply restored the majority of the US great plains back to a bison centered ecosystem instead of cattle, you'd produce a similar resource (bison meat) in large quantity while reducing emissions, and the tall grass would sequester an enormous amount of carbon.
Languages like C# and Rust are called "multi-paradigm", but when thinking about them and working with them I don't tend to think in terms of paradigms at all, just a big design space of possible features and decisions.
