Most of the discussions here are talking about the downsides of alternative home designs. In general, while there's going to be some failures, exploring new home designs should be encouraged--most of the world can't afford the construction style common in NA, and material science and advanced robotics lead to incredibly cheap alternative home construction possibilities. There's a ton of improved life statistics tied to home ownership. Especially with alternative home designs though, home inspections should absolutely be the most important and time consuming thing you do during a purchase.

I discovered this by lucky happenstance during my first home purchase, but a good home inspector will save you thousands of dollars, and sometimes more. While any sort of home inspection is not discussed in the article, I believe that an alternative construction building inspector (while costing more than a normal inspector) would have caught some of the more major issues mentioned here. If it's true that the leaks in the concrete were covered up long enough to sell the home, then most leak detection equipment would easily have caught it. Water damage, foundation issues and leaks are standard home inspection protocol. Additionally, it sounds like a fair amount of the termite issues could have been caught before the sale of the home, which is also a standard part of home inspections.

In the event of purchasing an alternative home like this, I would not hesitate to even hire multiple home inspectors, especially ones that know the house and the area. Even having a quick conversation with them ahead of time (Are you familiar inspecting concrete roofed homes?).
4. The compiler should not be included and neither should the headers. Unless a user explicitly wants to include the compiler and also have a C compiler on the node in order to compile stuff on the target node there is no reason to have the header files there and relups work fine without them.

If Elixir 1.11 'mix release' still includes all of the `erts` directory then an issue should be opened.

Having your family under one roof isn't a compromise, unless you don't like your family. Sure, there are downsides at times to having everyone together, but the positives far outweigh the negatives.
This is a problem I used to solve with 'zmodem' which you can install on both ends and use to perform text transfers, solely over the interactive channel.

I think the binaries were named 'zs' and 'zr'. It's been a long time since I needed to do this anywhere...
That is pretty nice.

I've been doing `git push -u origin HEAD` and then using my mouse to click on the "go here to create a PR" link that gets printed, which isn't too bad. Takes you right to the page where you can review the changeset before opening the PR. If I'm not actually ready to open a PR by the time I push upstream, I just open a draft instead.
In some ways i agree but i can't help wonder, is this one of those cases where something doesn't work very well (in this case capitalism) but the suggested answer is MORE capitalism.

What i've just said obviously over-simplifies and in some large respects does a dis-service to capitalism BUT i still can't help but feel we need an improvement. It's not good enough yet.
Working in hospitals, nobody will say it was a gross over-reaction. Everyone agrees we didn't delay the breakout long enough to get the right staff, equipment, and materials in place to treat, resulting in tens of thousands of additional deaths.

Here in Florida when cases spiked, patients were having to be sedated with drugs not originally meant for sedation, due to etomidate, ketamine, and propofol supplies running out. There was no PPE, everyone was reusing masks and gowns. Doctors got sick, some died. Everyone was working 60+ hours and I know many hospitals were offering $100+/hr with multi thousand dollar bonuses per week to get staff to come in. Staff still turned down these offers, due to the stress.

Advent Health setup a dedicated hospital for COVID in every major city to try and efficiently use PPE, they were quickly overwhelmed and the covid patient's flooded every hospital, resulting in even less PPE availability.

One ICU nurse I know summed it up best "We went from working 2-3 patients that each had one problem, to work 5-8 patients, each one with a myriad of problems. I want to go back to the simple patients, I have to code patients several times a week now."

Sure maybe if our government was effective we could have come up with a better plan, but implementing a "segregation" of elderly from the general population simply wasn't going to happen. The efforts to "lower the curve" were 100% necessary and didn't go far enough or last long enough. Now we get the worst of everything, mass death, continuing outbreak and a damaged economy.

Also: These weren't small podunk hospitals, these were the Advent Health's, Baptist Health, Cleveland Clinic size health systems, it's not a lack of money or trying that this all went down, it was a real crisis.

Same thing for my 'google news' app on my phone. If I ever (god forbid) google a persons name, I get stories about that person for months. I also get the same results (mixed into new results) for days and sometimes a week at a time. Are they really that bad at recommendation that they can't find another option that ranks higher in my "interest" score?
Asbestos ones last a lot longer than the steel ones. The galvanization slowly fails around the edged where there's exposed metal and trapped moisture. They do last a long time but I wouldn't want to put one underground where I couldn't fix it and where any rust hole instantly becomes a leak.
In addition to that it is also cached by CDN, so it takes a while to show up when there is an outage.
That’s true. But, I can’t tell all applications that use the counter library to reduce the number of threads they use.
> Would you say BLM bandits and looters are lacking in empathy when they are destroying small business?

You mean, the boogaloo bandits and looters? Because as much as people keep talking about BLM, the ones I see charged with actual personal and property violence in and around the protests are associated with the boogaloo movement and other right-wing (white-wing?) groups.

> Or is that fine because some 160 years ago some black dude in Africa sold his countrymen into slavery?

There's nothing stupider I've heard in quite a long time — and with Trump in office and his statements getting constant visibility because of that it's saying a lot — than trying to pretend white people had nothing to do with the institutionalization of slavery and racist policy more generally in America, and that it was all a product of some “black dude in Africa”.
Where? Here in HN, a little bit, but out IRL?

Out in real life no one knows or cares about this
Not a scientist or doctor, but have taken a lot of time to understand how I can protect my family if needed.

Not picking a fight as I feel that evidence based analysis is paramount.

There are some good studies that show that HCQ+ ( HCQ with Azithromycin and Zinc ) is quite effective at PREVENTING serious outcomes in many cases as it seems to interfere with portions of the viral replication lifecycle. There haven't been large scale double-blind trials yet, but there should be. The few double-blind trials there have been have focused exclusively on HCQ without the additional viral inhibitors and were done at toxic doses when the virus had largely already replicated and the patients had progressed to a "serious illness" with the accompanied "cytokine storm". Lots of bad information out there, 'politically' deployed with little information behind it.

This isn't and shouldn't be the only treatment available, but we shouldn't discount things because they don't fit with our worldview or because our 'enemies' promote them. Facts are stubborn things. We should strive to do better collectively.

I'll leave speculation of motivations behind on why more types of treatments haven't been tried. We're in a strange time when a lot of the institutions that have failed the public are still being weaponized against people who desperately want the best outcome for folks.

Sorry for diverting the topic of your comment, but I wish this comment to be visible... (Before thinking that I am an anti-homosexual, read my entire comment, as well as before give me a downvote, write the part where I was wrong and try to refute it with a well-founded argument)

I am not against homosexuality as long as homosexuals are the minority and do not cause harm, but the normalization of homosexuality is something that simply is not going to happen unless most of the planet turns homosexual (and puts our very survival at risk).

I am in favor of respect for homosexual people as well as respect for any other person...

I am in favor that psychological damage should be imputed (insulting someone on the street saying "gay!" Does not count as psychological damage, because otherwise, someone yelling at me "small penis!" on the street would also fall into the category of "psychological damage")...

I am against the arguments (used by most of the LGBT community) to claim that homosexuality is something "normal", are not supported by scientific studies.
(the largest study conducted (that I am aware of) on 500,000 homosexual people, reveals that, although their genetics are similar, there is no relationship between "homosexual genetics" and homosexual behavior:
https://science.sciencemag.org/content/365/6456/eaat7693)

Some of the LGBT community goals that I was able to research are:

1. Normalize homosexuality (to avoid the "psychological damage" mentioned above)

2. Legally defend homosexuals who receive psychological or physical harm (I already mentioned my position above)

3. Allow gay marriage (falls into the same category of "normalizing homosexuality" from point 1)

I do not know more objectives, if someone can tell me (or affirm if those are all the points) I would appreciate it.
I don't like the idea of "we're tacking this onto an existing service lots of people have enabled". CF bit me recently by suddenly taking away proxied dns wildcards from free zones, as it's now a premium feature (breaking the security promise in the process by changing the wild card entry to non-proxied). I don't like surprises and opt-out changes in critical infrastructure.

It's one thing to use CF's Always-On service - you're a customer, you know you can remove your data from it. It's another to get the Internet Archive involved, who may or may not remove your data, and may or may not honor robots.txt.
It's highly fault intolerant on everything staying the way it is, which means if in the future the internet is temporarily/permanently down for weeks/months for huge swathes of people (e.g. EMP / nuclear war), or the RDR DRM server goes offline temporarily/permanently (will it still be up in 10 year's time?) the game cannot be played. Future fallible not future proof.
Autodesk is about the last company that builds software on the backs of personal/hobbyists/small business market. Not choosing Autodesk is a career ending mistake in many cases, too.
There was no hysteria. There is standard decision-making with uncertainty. Early in the pandemic, ramping up ventilator, mask, and other production made 100% sense. That's a $1 billion hedge to help with what's turning out to be a multi-trillion dollar problem.

Indeed, it's a no-brainer decision. The expected ROI of a $1 billion ventilator order in April was astronomically high.

Conversely, cancelling the contract makes sense too, now that ventilators don't seem to be the solution. Generally, when a contract is cancelled, you pay for costs already incurred, so it's generally not unfair to do so.
Don't know why you were down voted - I take your position to mean "has lockdown led to a loss of general immunity due to lack of exposure to general pathogens" which I think is a valid question to ask.

Seems some people are too trigger happy and unwilling to explore charitable interpretation of posts.
In what way(s) does Linux fail to follow in the footsteps of PARC?
Looking at situation in India which is extremely crowded in many cities, the number of cases and deaths is relatively is very low.

Many share the opinion that there is some sort of immunity among the population here.

Not sure about the scientific validity, but I'm inclined to believe that the lack of such immunity would have made the situation extremely dire by now.

You can actually kind of do this with `std::shared_ptr` [0], but it's going to be nowhere near as efficient[1] as the Rust mechanism. Maybe a single-threaded implementation of it could come close but you'd have to roll it yourself or use something like `boost::local_shared_ptr`. You may also need to go to intrusive pointers to make sure there's memory alignment.

Of course the Rust variant is not only cheaper (no ref counts), it's also guaranteed thread-safe (which again, C++ would have to use something like the atomic `shared_ptr` to achieve)

TLDR: Even when C++ can kind of do it, you have to give up concurrency safety to get close while adding memory pressure & still not being as fast while Rust gives you guaranteed concurrency safety for free regardless of accidental misuse of your API.

[0] Currently that would be constructor #8 on https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/memory/shared_ptr/shared_p...
[1] Not only are you always paying for atomic ref counting even when you don't need it, aliased `shared_ptr` will be as expensive to take a ref for as normally constructing it - there's possible no way to `make_shared` with aliasing. This means the aliased shared_ptr will be even more expensive every time you need to access the ref count since the control block loses cache coherency. On the other hand if you structure it more carefully maybe you could vend `const std::shared_ptr<std::string>&` in your iterator so that in the single-threaded case your only overhead is constructing the aliased shared_ptr once & you leave it to the user to take a copy when transferring to another thread.
Zoom Fatigue and the New Ways to Party
Also, why is the question always “Rust or go?”, excluding all other languages?

If that is “because those are the hip languages”, that’s not a good reason to make a choice for years. How long will they stay hip?

If it is an ideological choice, I don’t understand what the ideology is. Go is not more open than, say, C#, Java, or Swift (all open source, but backed by a huge company that largely controls the evolution of the language).

Rust is more of an underdog, being backed by a relatively, smaller player.

So, what’s the argument to limit the choice to these two?
> recommendations can be delightful

They are really not. I struggle pages after pages to find something interesting. And then days later i stumble on a link that has interesting stuff randomly. Even search is bad. And there's always the knowledge that google is censoring stuff and manipulating people.

There's definitely space for better youtube/video recommendation site.
Reminds me of a scene from a trailer:

A: “You just killed him!”

B: “I didn’t kill him, the bullets and the fall killed him.”

Me? I don’t have any easy answers. The reason I value freedom of speech is the exact same reason I consider it dangerous: that it can effect change.

> blaming the speech in whole or in part removes agency from those who choose to react

How many people grok — really grok — that they have a choice to not react to their feelings? How many can really go against the tide of a mob when inside one? Can you genuinely compensate for the availability heuristic, or any of the other cognitive biases that a skilled propagandist knows how to manipulate?
My wife was angry at me that I could fit a Switch into my pocket the other day. Although it's pretty cumbersome to carry it around like that.
"I was just following orders" does not defend one's actions, so the whole continuum must respect individual agency over others' speech.

With DDG + firefox (desktop or mobile), you can create your own custom bangs!

1. Perform the modified search (hekksaks r:no)

2. Create a new bookmark from the search result page

3. Ctrl+shift+B -> edit bookmark

4. Replace the search term but not the custom logic with `%s` (in this case produces https://duckduckgo.com/?q=%s+r%3Ano&ia=web)

5. Type your desired bang into the "keyword" field (!n for example)

You can now use !n <any search term> to search for r:no <any search term>, and add/remove/edit filters from the bang as you see fit.
I lived in a garden unit in Chicago for a year. I hated it. Luckily it never flooded, but that was always a worry. The bugs though; I hear you on that. I could not get rid of ants no matter how much I cleaned and sprayed. It was a constant battle with those bastards.

I remember the basement in my parent's home also having a bug problem when growing up. I would hate to buy a unit like this that's essentially 100% basement.
Ugh. Well, that's just heartbreaking.
The instructions in this article should work, but they're more complicated than necessary maybe. If you don't have scp, you can usually just do something like this:

ssh user@host cat remote_file > local_file

to copy the contents of "remote_file" on the server to "local_file" on your local machine.

It's ironic to see a complaint that youtube recommendations are stale, in the comments of a complaint that they lead people to discover offensive things. Can't have it both ways. Either you let people discover new things (some of which might be offensive) or not.

As the article shows, there are basically the reasonable levels, 0, 1, and 2 which are all valid approaches and depend on engineering tradeoffs. Levels 3, 4 and 5 are mistakes you want to avoid: so of course you aren't going to agree with the implementation choices in those levels, because they are mistakes! Those types of mistakes occur in practice along these lines (and in other ways), so I think it is useful to show them.

Note that "system call" level doesn't mean "the best level you can implement with a system call", although admittedly perhaps the naming was confusing. Rather, it means "an approach which implies that a system call is made for every interactive" - that is, it is almost always mistake, since can generally avoid this.

The levels are named after the dominant factor in their cost.

> In this case, I strongly suspect that we count 43,252,003,274,489,856,000 and then may or may not say "but 4,096 of those are equivalent for any given coloration pattern, so divide by 4,096".

I don't think that's true. I went looking for the formula, and found this[1].

They include a term for the permutations of the corner cubes (8!∙3⁸), a term for the edge cubes (12!∙2¹²) and a term for the center cubes (1!∙1¹), then divide that by 12 (2∙3∙2) to eliminate impossible configurations. That term for the center cube permutations seems to agree with my view on it. There's no such thing as "rotation" for a plain colored center cube. It's the same no matter how you look at it.

I think a cube with designs on the center faces will have more permutations than the 43e18 we're discussing here.

Putting the whole .net library as available to use as well as any CLI tool is very interesting. The syntax is a slightly on the quirk side. But not terrible and it is consistent in its own logic.

To put it to someone who has not used PS it is like taking the entirety of the C/C++ runtime and whatever lib is in your libs folder available to use without writing a bunch of wrapper bits of code to use it. Then still being able to use the existing set of wrapper bits.

MS has lost the server space, and a good chunk of the developer space on desktop to opensource and macos. To expect them to sit back and not do something would be astonishing. Of course they are going to make software for those platforms. They make software even if they do not own the platform it runs on. MS sees software as a way to get things done. Sometimes in the opensource world people see it as a lifestyle decision. Those can coexist, because they are not against each other. They can complement each other.
"Only around ~6k did not have other comorbidities."
