> If those costs were paid by the drivers and owners of heavy vehicles, those people would be more likely to purchase smaller and lighter vehicles.

Outside of fuel consumption, which indeed is directly paid for by the person who owns the car, It's all paid for by taxpayers, and like any public service some people don't use it as much as others (or at all). Everyone in NYC pays for the subway yet some people own a car and drive it exclusivity.

> I imagine most people would be pleased to drive on smooth roads with less air pollution.

This largely doesn't matter to most people since cars have very good air filters[0,1]. I also question how much a regular consumer truck actually contributes to road wear compared to the millions of 18 wheelers that weigh over 50,000 pounds.

I was going to praise URW++ for their trust-based rather than analytics-based web licensing (and for their long-standing commission of Ghostscript and GNU fonts), but then I noticed it was sold to Monotype, like almost all type foundries.

Some background: started off working on a personal finance app and discovered that transaction information was in a terrible state, even with the services from the big guys like Plaid.com

The transaction names were truly a mess: "170220 SPOTI P23ZFA90EA", "SPOTIF" "AMZN 44237", "AMAZON.COM". And there definitely was no chance in hell I'd get something like a logo!

Over time, we developed an internal solution that really just blew all the existing services out of the water. Beautiful transaction names, merchant logos, merchant websites.. whew! Wisefin.ai API is the result.

It's free for personal use, so feel free to give it a try! :)
A fascinating topic with profound implications. I have always wondered during day dreaming on the nature of mathematics and what it all means. Highly recommend these 2 videos from this YouTube channel named 'numberphile' discussing this topic.

Sorry but this was stupid to me. Most of the weighing systems out there are going to use the bell alarm to actuate a pneumatic arm to push the offending box off the line to a reject pile.

What you actually will find is they will have an over and under bin so you can find out if you are over or under filling. It is a requirement by law that they weigh the product on a "legal for trade" scale if they are claiming it contains a certain amount.
The company would already have the weighing equipment in place, maybe farther up the line where the tubes are filled. They would simply have to move them down to the end of the line and change the weight range to add in the weight of a box and any other things added to the box and toothpaste tube.

I get that it is a thought exercise but wanted to add my 2 cents.
Came to say exactly this.
As a first time entrepreneur its important to learn how to spread ideas. Sales comes after.
I personally have sold over $20 million in online marketing and website development services and have a business with 180 full time employees. The parents advice in this post is absolutely correct. The only way to learn to sell is to do it.

You have to sit with hundreds of prospects and learn to listen to what they are saying. To read their nonverbal cues. To respect what they are saying and customize your offerings to match. To leave your ego at the door.

You need to prepare for tons of rejections and even more ghostings. You need to be ready for people to tell you every reason imaginable why you aren't good enough... Then you need to pick yourself up and explain to them clear and politely why you are their best option.

Most importantly, never give up. Just trying over and over again until you are sick of hearing yourself talk is the only way to master sales.
You're not convinced of what exactly? That alternative methods reduce content? That is precisely what you are instructed to do by pedagogy researchers giving advice to teachers.

Asian education systems like India, China, Japan are very rigid and based on rote practice and memorization. "Prep school" there means evening schools where they just go do yet more memorization and rote practice to help pass entrance exams. Yet they produce many brilliant mathematicians too. Of course the students are motivated by parents and society, not love of cramming.

The ideal would be teaching that is individualized and does the best it can to get through to each student (there are plenty of efforts and even "edTech" that tries to do this, especially at lower grades). Without that it's always a trade-off in which students get the most value for the time spent.

Why not? For most things I'd agree with you, but in the case of terrorism specifically (whatever exactly that word means) I'm not convinced. Isn't the goal of terrorism to inflict terror or raise awareness? If no one is talking about your act of terror you've failed at your goal.

I don’t think the word hubris does justice to this line of thinking.

Definitely agree. I tried multiple times to "get" Pet sounds, it's not bad, but the Beatles did run circles around it.
This is one of the “gotchas” in C, because the standard doesn’t define anything about the stack at all but it is really quite easy to run into issues if you’re not careful even with “standards compliant” programs. What’s scarier is that this can happen at any function call, and there is no standard way to detect this issue. (Most compilers do support stack probes, though.)
Either we all accept smaller cars, or the earth's climate becomes incompatible with human life. Your call.
This book is great.

It also kept Germany going in WW1 far longer than otherwise, by compensating for blockades on saltpeter for explosives.
Author here! This was a super fun project that consumed over a month of evenings and weekends. In the past couple of days I finished the examples, and I'm glad to finally put it out there.

I don't quite remember how I fell into the Forth rabbit hole, but I think I first heard about Collapse OS. Then I read yosefk's "My history with Forth & stack machines" [0], which is actually very critical of Forth. But when I saw if/then/else being defined in Forth itself, I was hooked.

I've always been fascinated by the idea of having a minimal kernel of primitives from which "everything" can be built. Before Forth, I had only seen that in the form of Lisp's "Maxwell equations of software", which is cool, but always left me a little disappointed because it is too abstract to build something that you can actually interact with - you can't break out of its esoteric nature. The same applies to brainf*ck and other extremely small environments.

With Forth, however, you can start from almost nothing, and start adding things like ifs, loops, strings, etc., things that look more like your day-to-day programming. I find that there's a lot of beauty in that.

Anyways, I hope the examples in the repository do not look too awful to experienced Forth programmers :D

Sales is a psychological game.

Try selling a product, it doesn't have to be related to your current concern. If you're willing to put in the work, canvassing door to door might be the best way to learn. You can see your audience's reaction immediately. There are subtle details you'll miss when selling in other mediums. Nothing will help you understand consumers better than talking to them in person.

After going door to door, writing sales copy and understanding your funnel will be much simpler. From there you can use your technical mind to optimize the process with multivariate testing etc.

> Here in Canada there was this provincial deputy from a very left leaning and pro public transport party that got elected. You know the first thing she did with her salary? She bought a SUV (https://www.tvanouvelles.ca/2018/11/19/la-deputee-catherine-...)

That is a nice sound bite and proves nothing. Someone campaigning on a pro public transit agenda may well not believe that transit is yet suitable, and running on that platform is hardly incompatible with car ownership. They are nowhere near mutually exclusive. If you live in Toronto, a train won’t take you to the cottage up in the Kawarthas, nor should it more than likely. Not sure where provincial politicians have their cottages —- the Laurentides?

Cars will have uses even if transit is beefed up, certainly in the winter. Good on the provincial deputy. Or at least, a big shrug.

> And we saw how that was great during the pandemic, and that's not even mentioning other calamities that could happen. And that's not even taking snow into account. Not everyone lives in California.

We did. European cities fared much better than American ones and continue to. That’s got little to do with how the city is laid out and everything to do with how those in it act in the face of shared danger.

> Or organize planning so that everything is more distributed. There are no reasons for mega cities to exist in the Internet Age.

Sure there is. It’s vastly, and I do mean, vastly, more efficient. In terms of water, in terms of energy, in terms of carbon footprint, in terms of space. Vastly. That alone makes not having cities a dealbreaker for some whole countries like Australia where these resources are at a premium.

Cities are efficiencies of scale incarnate.

A lot of AIB cards work too, for example the Sapphire 5700XT Nitro+ is popular for hackintoshing. There are a handful that don't (usually because the GPU vendor decided to make some funky design change), both those surface pretty quickly after the release of a new model and are easy to avoid.

Great summary on sales and marketing but neither is a monolith.

Sales can best be distinguished by indirect sales and direct sales.

Direct sales is where you go out and find clients.

Indirect sales is where you go out and find partners to bring you clients.

I think the problem with that is how many cold foods won't do well outside of the freezer for more than 30 minutes, so any combined delivery would have to be purely opportunistic (eg. The delivery destinations being within a few miles of each other, and ordered/scheduled close enough together as to still meet delivery windows) and/or filtered so that people with cold items get their items first.

But nobody requires that you fasten your seatbelt, either. I believe a stack check is still opt-in using the default flags on most compilers, unless you alloca. Plus, stack probes are merely precautionary, they can still be broken by an inconvenient sequence of stack allocations and signal handlers being run.

“But key events should be on key-down”

Should they, in general? If you want to press a key combination, you never press the two keys at exactly the same time. So, if key events were on key-down, you would have to press modifiers before letters to type capital letters, use keyboard shortcuts, etc. I think that would be annoying and slow typists down.

It also rules out using bare modifier key presses as input methods, but that is less of an impact.

I certainly have a lot of recommendations that are topic adjacent, but most of my comment comes from mental revision. I have a horrible habit of reliving previous arguments and trying to find out what I could have said better to win the argument. I had an argument with a law school classmate who had a Masters in Mathematics (now a PhD) while we were on a road trip from Paris to Normandy, during summer abroad, and then ‘invented/discovered’ nature of mathematics was the real crux of the argument. I have spend the last 12 years going over and over and over that argument trying to win it and my comment is a result of that. So my recommendations are not going to be super on point, except to say that the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy entry on the ‘The Philosophy of Mathematics’ [1] and the large list of citations are great, particularly the ones from the sections on Formalism and Fictionalism (but these are not the most interesting reads if you’re not digging for a mic drop quote for your imaginary debate).

For some topic adjacent past time papers, a lot of my comments concerning logic come from the research for my programming language, so I have been immersed in logic and proof theory work for the last six months pretty hard. I think any of the course note PDFs from Frank Pfenning (CS prof at Carnegie Mellon Univ.) are great read in general (and are easily found by googling Pfenning logic course notes and just looking around). If you like video lectures, or just listening to them, any of Pfenning’s lecture sets from the OPLSS session, which are all on YouTube are wonderful, particularly the 5 lectures from 2017 on Substructural Type Systems and Concurrent Programming [2] Also, Noam Zeilberger’s OPLSS lectures on Refinement Types [3] are great and his dissertation was a great read [4]. Finally, Neel Krishnaswami and Dunfield‘s 2 papers on Higher Rank Bidirectional Type Checking [5] was really good (and like all the above the cite lists are a trove of good stuff).

I literally could keep going for hours on great reads in logics and type theory, so if you want more in some area I’ll provide.
