I would agree on one point and disagree on the other actually.

On the first point, from what I've seen, there is certainly a lot of conflict if intergenerational couples stay together under the same roof for prolonged periods of time, whether it's the parents living with the kids or the other way around. For short periods of time, it definitely works out positively.

I would argue that it's less because of wealth or even expenses, and moreso because of cultural norms, that children tend to stay with their parents for longer in Europe. I don't know if this comes across as anecdotal, but my SO's parents often requested her to choose a medical university closer to home, and even suggested we stay with them, even though they are extremely affluent and comfortable. Even now, after living separately in another city, her parents and relatives often stop by to check up and stay for a couple of days very often. Of course, the young will always prefer to move apart to retain some privacy, especially once the kids arrive. Obviously there's the shadow of European expenses hanging over everyone's heads.

There has been interest in doing something to have VSCode in some way or shape on the iPad for a long time [0].

I see a lot of "you just need to" iPad on VSCode tricks that basically describe running a part of the UI locally and the rest hosted somewhere else (most fantastic setup I saw was to stick a RPi 0 on the side of the iPad connected through USB-C and VNC/SSH to it).

Codespacets is to me a variation of that, I'd want an actual node runtime powering a full native app with command line, native code execution etc. (a la Pythonista), and not just a reduced interface. I still prefer using Coda or Textastic for instance than coding in Safari.

The only thing strange on the VR front is I don't understand why Facebook isn't promoting the fitness aspect of VR? I've already lost 20lbs just from playing video games. It would definitely siphon some people away from peleton like products if they did a marketing push in this direction.

It would be great if there was a central VR game hub that kept track of fitness. I know YUR exists, but adoption isn't widespread because it's not built into the platform.
Hmm, who would have bid more? Google has its own tech and doesn't like making content. Apple doesn't like making content and only recently got into original video content. Microsoft has its own tech.

I don't _think_ Facebook had a lot of computer vision expertise at the time and it makes sense they'd want to buy into that.

Amazon was a choice I guess?

> The thing it absolutely seems to nail is performance. I'm getting zero CPU thrashing on the same project, and auto-complete-mode, whilst not quite as good as VSCode's autocomplete, is much better than Sublime's. For one thing it seems to work well across files, even when using ES5 with no typing hints.

Speaking of ironic, yeah. Emacs used to be the massive resource hog, compared to it's competition (BSD vi?) back in the day -- the joke was that EMACS stood for "eight megs and constantly swapping", back when 8MB of RAM was a lot. It's just that, after that, they failed to keep up with Wirth's law.
This pricing was inevitable and Sony very likely taking a loss to stay competitive with Xbox Series X. Microsoft had first mover advantage and set the price floor + ceiling with their earlier announcements.

The question becomes how large of a loss per console and how long will it take for Sony to recoup?

There are 40 million cars in Italy (not counting other kind of vehicles)

There have been 612 pedestrian deaths in 2018.

Not accounting for the context and only counting cars. stats just count the number of pedestrians hit and dead, they could have been hit by a bicycle as far as we know.

It's 15 every million cars.

That's not very likely as well.
If you don't like the current C standard and you want to change the standard, feel free to propose a change. The standard is there for a reason. If everyone adds their own extra constraints to the language, the standard falls apart and becomes useless and meaningless.

I will not be holding my breath waiting for the committee to accept this though. The chance of this being accepted seems really low, as it has serious consequences for the meaning of the large amount of existing C code.

> But at the end of the day, the argument of "DRM is useless" is people truly saying, "I don't want to pay for things".

This is false.

A lot of people oppose DRM because it's a nasty bit of software running on your hardware, or because it's unwieldy or plain doesn't work. Some people buy a game (or ebook, or whatever) then use a DRM-stripped version because it's better.

And yes, some people play pirated games because they don't want to pay. But don't make it sound as if that was everyone.

DRM sucks.

Counterpoint: this will force developers to find new tricks that more efficiently use the lower resources. It also puts demand on UX development, since it's targeting more people, and because it's needed to balance the hardware deficiencies.

Then, developers can apply to those tricks on better hardware and get even more out of it, and this pattern could just continue as everything improves and adoption grows.

Your suggestion to join a church doesn't really make sense unless you're proselytizing. If they don't believe in any religions, then they wouldn't join a church no matter how good the social benefits might be. If they do believe in some religion, they have probably already joined a church.

Are you deliberately misinterpreting what the parent poster wrote? It sucks the oxygen away from other bookstores. Hence the "Eventually alternatives die". That people spend money on Audible is not a counter-argument.

> How would this information be useful if it's not shared with the boss?

Indirection and anonymization. The details of each individual aren't supposed to be shared but a healthcare professional can recommend changes to the manager that if implemented would promote a healthier workplace. They can point out that the whole workplace is stressful and talk to the managers about how they can improve that. Hopefully deadlines will be addressed.

There's an entire medical specialty devoted to this: occupational medicine.

> Employees are more likely to keep that kind of thing a secret because they likely believe knowledge of it will make it harder to get raises and promotions.

Unreasonable deadlines are likely to stress entire groups of people, not single individuals. It's worth addressing as an issue affecting the collective workforce.
Something that's aimed against the user, hostile, malicious code (mal in malware). Since it treats you as an apriory threat, you should treat it as an apriory threat in return, so as a malware.

I spent enough time in FreeCAD to become really proficient. It's not as refined as F360, it lacks a number of features, but the latest version (0.19) is fairly mature. I've designed and built full assemblies with gears, and then printed or CNC'd it (FreeCAD has some support for CNC toolpathing).

I've tried F360 a few times and each time dropped it thinking "this is designed to lock me in and make me pay for it".

This is false, Quest 2 has 20% faster refresh rate than Quest 1 (in hardware, software support is coming after launch). You don't know if persistence was improved or not (my guess is it was).

Eh, hard to say: Witcher 3 was a breakout hit with a (relatively) niche audience for prior games. It's prior games were also available DRM free.

RDR2 was both highly anticipated and had a massive marketing budget.

I think your idea is sound, but I just don't know if these are really comparable game launches. Counter-factuals are also very hard to prove. how do we know that Witcher 3 wouldn't have generated more revenue if it wasn't easy to share your copy?
What are those starter homes?

I've got 500k in liquid assets, a respectable salary and no debts. I'm looking at the housing market and see two options: a junk house in a sketchy area for 600k or a decent house for 1.2M, but I'd have to give up financial security and live pay check to pay check.

If there was a smallish decent condo for 200k, I'd write a check today.
I believe the cracked games are on sufficiently obscure websites to be a deterrent to regular users. So maybe 10% of those people that would otherwise not have paid will just buy a DRM game instead of cracking it.

One could even argue that it is pro consumer by making sure the revenue will go back to paying consumers in the form of additional content, instead of paying for players who didn't buy it.
As M4v3R noted, what Vim does is not usually possible with just custom key bindings. If you're not familiar with it, I would highly recommend giving it a try; even as a beginner if you know only a few commands it'll still save you a ton of time. I find it hard to watch co-workers press arrow keys repeatedly or select text character by character when the same could be accomplished with one or two key presses.

You have two lines and want to swap them? ddp – that's it. 3 key presses. You have a string on the same line as your cursor and need to replace it? ci" – also 3 key presses (Change Inside "Quote).

No editor has configurable key bindings that can do this.

There are tons of tutorials online; this one seems to explain things pretty well: https://takac.github.io/2013/01/30/vim-grammar/
Hey there HN,
I'm Jieren, and I'm building this app here.

I submitted this two months ago and I wanted to share again as there's been some significant progress. Instead of a fairly janky interface where you're clicking and dragging things around, now it's just a text editor where you type in code and you get search results that mirror this code.

All this is driving towards a vision of a "no-code" [0] builder for static analysis and making static analysis as easy as code search.

Looking forward to your feedback!

What kind of Stem topics are you looking for? For natural sciences, documentaries like Our Planet can get kids interested in animals and ecosystems. Birdwatching is also a great start, I recommend guides like Sibley's guide to whatever region of the world you live in.

For plants, I strongly believe that guidebooks like Tree Finder (https://m.barnesandnoble.com/w/tree-finder-may-theilgaard-wa...) can be a fun activity. You can turn it into a scavenger hunt or make hikes more enjoyable. There's similar books for insects and flowers as well.

For programming and tech, graphical programming languages like Scratch (https://scratch.mit.edu/) are good introductions. Oftentimes, basic math and physics concepts can be rolled in as they get older and want to create more complex programs.

Engineering has a wide variety of different kits that can be completed, but the best way is to figure out what your kid wants to build and see what you can do to make it happen.

And finally, always be on the lookout for learning opportunities. For example, my parents would let me keep the change at the grocery store if I could calculate it before the cashier returned the money.
I moved out at 18 while working full time, I have always been extremely independently minded and wanted to do my own thing. Was it extremely tough especially when I was going to college as well? absolutely! But it brought to me a sense of independence and tenacity that has given me a huge advantage over peers in my age group. Everything is not that difficult when compared to being on your own at a young age. I counter this to a person I knew who went to a top school who's Dad was a corp. exec and they were not working/jumping between low level jobs into their 30's and were completely dependent upon their parents weekly income. I cringe at the thought of moving into my parents house again, I love them alot, but just value my independence alot more.

Seems odd they're not taking advantage of their own app store to update these apps without requiring an OS update. Even Google does it on Android.
Yeah, I get that and name narrower ranges in a business context (trying to keep the upper bound from getting too much lower) because most biz-school types don't get that, and tend to think you're full of shit, being passive-aggressive or otherwise deliberately obtuse, or else it doesn't actually matter and they just wanted a happy number to put on a powerpoint and now you're making their life more difficult for no reason.

For that matter they tend to be pretty bad at anything even adjacent to experimental design, but god help you if you point out that the data they're so proud to present to the C-suite next week is, actually, meaningless (rare is the C-suite that'll catch it and call them on it, anyway, so from the perspective of the presenter it's almost beside the point; a disturbing amount of "data driven" leadership is pure fairy dust).

For a good proportion of programmers I'd expect education and professional work experience to have them comfortable with wide estimate ranges being typical and honest for many "90%" estimates, but business-social experience having convinced them, correctly, that honest estimates aren't what a hell of a lot of people actually want and do, "make us appear ignorant or incompetent" (from the book), in actual fact from the perspectives of people who control our budgets and wages.
The implication that I thought was obvious was that in light of their voting patterns they're either stupid or there's something other than "what will benefit me personally the most" that's driving their voting and I know which one I'm betting on.

Your article doesn't directly talk about the tax rate for the top 1%.

The fact that the percentage of total tax collected attributed to the top 1% has risen from 24% to 30% seems to be more indicative of higher wealth inequality, especially if the figures the other posters have mentioned about lower total tax rates on the rich are true. To me that's a good reason to raise taxes on top earners and lower taxes on the middle class.

This might be incredibly pedantic, but since this is a mathematical philosophy article, I'm going to go ahead.

These aren't "hard" problems, they're simply questions that don't make sense. Is finding an odd number that is divisible by 2 a "hard problem"? I don't think so, it's just that it turns out that it doesn't make sense to ask the question.

Some of these "hard problems" actually have solutions that demonstrate they aren't solvable, and these solutions are fairly elegant, in which case I'd also say these are not "hard".
