From your tone I can tell you're not listening, but the car coop in my city has clean well maintained cars that are all less than 5 years old. The car share app has a fleet of prius v's that are in even nicer shape than the coop's cars.

But how often would you need a vehicle that goes +40mph to take your kids somewhere? It'd only be useful for drives where you'll be outside of the city for long enough to make the lower speed matter - since for city driving the limit is almost always traffic and stoplights not your vehicle's top speed.

Where does this statement come from?

Do you have any sources or arguments to justify that?
Beyond partisan. He is truly devout Catholic and driven by religious doctrine. He argues that religion is necessary in American Democracy and the decline of religion has caused what he views as morally corrupt welfare state. His views are truly insane. far beyond republican politics.

he thinks that religion is needed side-by-side with our individual liberty style government.

read this whole speech it's truly insane i can't believe someone so intelligent (and effective), who was given so much power by Trump, has these views it's truly scary

"But today – in the face of all the increasing pathologies – instead of addressing the underlying cause, we have the State in the role of alleviator of bad consequences. We call on the State to mitigate the social costs of personal misconduct and irresponsibility.

So the reaction to growing illegitimacy is not sexual responsibility, but abortion.

The reaction to drug addiction is safe injection sites.

The solution to the breakdown of the family is for the State to set itself up as the ersatz husband for single mothers and the ersatz father to their children.

The call comes for more and more social programs to deal with the wreckage. While we think we are solving problems, we are underwriting them.

We start with an untrammeled freedom and we end up as dependents of a coercive state on which we depend."

Why not just use something like Foxpass? It’s well worth the money!
According to the history on the website it's been around since the '50s.

I came across it for the first time earlier this year and used it on a project. I really like it, but lack the vocabulary to explain why.
Weird, I'd've guessed the opposite - the word looks as though it could've been related to "putrid".
LibreDWG: “Plans are to add support for SolveSpace, OpenSCAD and PythonCAD”
Right, and if we can convince more people to give 1 star reviews when apps do this, then maybe it will stop working and developers will stop doing it.

Also, we expect people to stop a lot of things that 'work' because people are annoyed. Email SPAM worked well enough for people to keep doing it, so we passed laws to restrict it.
This is obviously a larger issue than what type of car etc, but there's no good reason for Americans to live in suburbs and exurbs and drive hours every day. The entire lifestyle is stupid, but you're right that just offering small electric vehicles won't change that.
Ask HN: When to notify your employer you are going to leave?
I decided I'll resign by the end of the year and I'm thinking if it's better to tell my boss about it now or to tell him when the resignation date is close.

If I tell him now is good because I give them enough time to look for a replacement but is bad because I'll be in a weird limbo for three months.

If I tell him days before leaving they'll have less time to look for a replacement but I'll avoid being in a employee/non employee limbo.

What do you think?
Your assertion that math is discovered is just an axiomatic statement. Your argument relies on it as bedrock. If I don’t except that axiom and prefer to start from math being invented by conscious minds then we can never get anywhere. I think the entire ‘meaning of mathematics rests on assuming one of these axioms. I can not accept a claim that mathematics is discovered, therefore, calling math (which I personally view as a logic) a language is perfectly valid.
FTA: "The likelihood of objects surviving and being discovered is similarly unlikely. Zalasiewicz (2009)speculates about preservation of objects or their forms, but the current area of urbanization isless than 1% of the Earth’s surface (Schneider et al., 2009), and exposed sections and drillingsites for pre-Quaternary surfaces are orders of magnitude less as fractions of the original surface.Note that even for early human technology, complex objects are very rarely found. For instance,the Antikythera Mechanism (ca. 205 BCE) is a unique object until the Renaissance. Despiteimpressive recent gains in the ability to detect the wider impacts of civilization on landscapesand ecosystems (Kidwell, 2015), we conclude that for potential civilizations older than about 4Ma, the chances of finding direct evidence of their existence via objects or fossilized examples oftheir population is small. "

These people have clearly never been to the beach--any beach. The oceans are absolutely chock full of our garbage and it is being deposited not only on the ocean floor, but on every shoreline the world over, where much is ground up and still more silted over. Plastic trash wafts the world over. Everything from beer cans to glass bottles to cars to aircraft are strewn through the entire industrialized world, in forests, creeks, and backyards. We have landfills the size of small towns. There are thousands of shipwrecks all over the oceans. Bazillions of items will be fossilized and preserved, and the odds of stumbling over something just digging anywhere will be very high.

This article is completely full of shit. Humans have left their mark and our junk is going to be here, fossilized, for eternity. If we've discovered hundreds or thousands of fossilized dinosaurs from over 100 million years ago, when there might be only a few thousand such skeletons even to be found, there's a damn good bet that someone is going to find one of the tens of billions of beer cans or beer bottles that are lying around, even if only a tiny fraction survive the aeons.
The earth is warming at a rate of four Hiroshima bombs per second [1] primarily because of human actions. I haven't read your document but it sounds like you're grossly underestimating our energy output.

I would tell him two weeks before your planned departure.
Strong agree for git rebase. When I write docs/teach folks about git, I almost never even mention merging. It's just generally very rarely useful, and I find it kind of makes git as a whole more of a black box. "git rebase -i" gives a much clearer picture of what's happening, and will let you solve significantly more complicated problems with the same tools and mental model.
That's quite a different concept. Agriculture techniques would have evolved that way but entirely devoid of science or understanding of how they worked, just evolution of ideas ossified into wisdom. Colonists in new countries experienced crop failures because they couldn't predict how things would behave in the different climates/ecosystems and just applied their "dumb" knowledge. I heard about a hunter-gatherer society that used a seemingly pointless ritual to decide where to get food each day. They had only a superstitious explanation of how it worked until we eventually figured out that the ritual was actually a random number generator that helped them to spread their gathering more uniformly or prevent prey from learning their habits or something along those lines. We can do a lot without understanding.

Medicine was a complete shit-show until modern science because people didn't even understand how to test if it caused patients to live or die! Even today in modern China, doctors still prescribe useless herbs based on superstition. They've stripped away the obvious nonsense about stars and planets that it used originally but still explain it using a mythical description of how the body works and how traditional medicines interact with it.
And it is deeply frustrating when you run up against one of these exceptions and need to wade through some bureaucracy before you can investigate further.
And I'm sure there's many people that haven't encountered a single BLM protest - that doesn't mean BLM isn't a trend. Does it have to be on every street and in every town to count? I didn't think it necessary at first since even the most casual browsing of the news would lead one to encounter that message, but I'll include a few examples.

Also note how it's specifically white silence that's singled out - other races are not called out. Their silence apparently contributes less, or not at all, to violence.

I live next to an NJ transit train station with a 1 hour ride to downtown Manhattan. I can drive into NYC faster because of the time savings from not stopping along the way and waiting on train transfers. I'm also not trapped by the limited service intervals on my line. This is a region with the best train service in the US and driving still is a better option for non-trivial trips.
I love the concept of using text to create visuals. It greatly appeals to my sensibilities as a coder. The concept of being able to source control the data seems amazing in theory.

What I found though was that once a diagram hits sufficient complexity the effort to produce a visual appealing image became too great. I likely could spend more time learning tools like graphviz and mermaid - but I find my time better spent in in more traditional graphic tools (lucid charts, Visio etc).

I don't proclaim this to be the great truth on these tools, merely my experience.
The lifestyle is attractive for many reasons, not helpful to dismiss something you don't like as "stupid".
I would say it heavily depends on what you do in your CI pipelines, if you only run linters and unit tests, 6 minutes sounds fine. If you run Integration test or have heavy compile times (Scala, Rust?) half an hour to an hour sounds reasonable to.

GitLab’s pipelines run between a few minutes and an hour. We execute pipelines based on what changed. If only docs changed: few minutes, if Frontend or Backend changed, it can take considerably longer (up two an hour).

Please note that this includes heavily parallelized Integration (and E2E) test. This is generally fine because I make sure that linters and tests pass locally for the things I changed before I push.

Also as code review takes quite a while, at least 6 eye principle, colleagues in different time zones, Pipeline execution of time is just something of a minor importance to consider.

I am unsure how many Engineers we currently have exactly, but I’d guess around 450?

> it's not driving innovation and we don't really need to emulate it.

Then don't emulate it and the US will continue to own nearly everything in tech that isn't inside of China.

I've been reading sentiment like that out of Europe for over two decades now, with predictable results that just keep going around in a circle and getting the Europeans nowhere.

SV and the US tech industry are great at creating markets as well, which you entirely ignore. What did the global cloud services market look like before AWS built it (even Alibaba's cloud offering is a mere intentional clone of AWS)? In terms of sales it barely existed. Every major tech market has been established by SV money and US tech companies, not European companies.

There's no evidence that Europe has been more innovative with their approach. It's quite the opposite given the vast majority of major technologies have come out of the US dating back to the 1950s. Europe's contributions pale by comparison, and that's why their companies pale by comparison.

Even ARM - one of Europe's few innovators in tech - had to be started by two US companies, with one of the partner companies being European. It's only fitting the US own that company again considering.

The leader in AI and quantum computing is the US, with China a close second, and Europe a distant third. And if you narrow that down to the EU, it's even worse now that Britain has left.

And when it comes to scaling, you get things like vast numbers of lucrative jobs, high paying engineering salaries from creating global giants. You get an immense virtuous cycle from it, including for seed funding start-ups and larger VC activities. Microsoft will grow its revenue more in the next two years than the total size of SAP (which is Europe's largest softare company and most valuable tech company). The revenue gap between them used to be more like 3 to 1 (circa 2001), now it's over 5 to 1 and persistently expanding.

AWS is on its way to being an $80-$100 billion sales global juggernaut, while SAP runs in slow motion. There's no reason Europe couldn't have done that, in theory; in practice, it has been two decades and Europe hasn't been able to do it.

"Innovation" is a gloriously worthless word (you can tell because Bill Gates was so very fond of throwing it around while he was at Microsoft, it's a dodge word). If something can't be supported with actual results, people jump to proclaiming things about innovation or the lack of it.

Besides, where is the supposed innovation in Europe's tech scene over the last four or five decades? What innovation? Where are the hundreds of amazing, innovative, successful European tech companies that are supposed to stand as a counter to Silicon Valley & Co.? They don't exist. Europeans will claim that's because they're all being acquired by richer US tech companies, which is false; that certainly happens occasionally, and it's happening at a small scale, because there aren't very many of those companies to purchase.

Your comment says more about you than the author.

It was a rarely-used but well-known word in use in school in the 80s and 90s.
Always give 2 weeks, no more, no less. If you give too much notice, there is the chance that they terminate you right away (you are not invested in the company long term, why keep you), or as soon as they find a replacement (what if that happens quickly). I have worked for companies where as soon as you put in your 2 week notice they just pay you out 2 weeks and terminate your employment that day.
@samm_cz: If you need more flexible timezone and DST handling (for example, if you need every timezone in the world from the IANA TZ database) take a look at https://github.com/bxparks/AceTime.

Also, the commenter on your website is correct about fading OLED displays. The cheap 128x64 OLEDs selling on eBay for $1-$2 seem to degrade within 6 months. I hope to use an LCD for my next clock.
Apple still requires apps to offer in-app purchase (taking 30%) for virtual fitness classes, concerts, etc.

They can still offer a lower price on their own website, but they can't link to that from the app. Users would have to open a browser, go to their website, sign in, and make a purchase -- too much friction.
> First, these numbers refer only to federal income taxes. Both the federal and the income part are important.

> The income tax is not the only tax collected by the federal government — far from it. Just half of the taxes collected by the federal government come from the income tax. About a third come from payroll taxes — which fall much more heavily on working people, since they’re largely levied only on the first $130,000 or so of earned income.

..

> Second, the wealthy naturally pay a disproportionate share of federal income taxes because they make a disproportionate share of the country’s income. In other words, these numbers to some degree demonstrate exactly the opposite of what those who use them claim: They’re not an indication that the superrich are beleaguered, but are in part a sign of America’s staggering wealth inequality.

..

> the top 1 percent — with an average income of about $2 million — made 20.9 percent of America’s income, but paid 24.1 percent of America’s taxes. Few people will perceive this as a monstrous injustice.

> Meanwhile, the middle 20 percent of Americans— with incomes between $41,000 and $66,000 per year — make 10.9 percent of America’s income and pay 9.4 percent of America’s taxes. The bottom 20 percent, making less than $23,000, make just 2.8 percent of America’s income and pay 2 percent of America’s taxes.

The rich pay taxes roughly in proportion of what they earn.

We need public transport more than anything. Much better pollution wise and much greener.
“Publicity is justly commended as a remedy for social and industrial diseases. Sunlight is said to be the best of disinfectants; electric light the most efficient policeman.” -- Louis Brandeis

Include pics on social media as a light form. Of course I don't want to be exposed to snuff films. But to the extent that blocking them sweeps evil under the rug that's a selfish impulse. And it's not just the existence of such evidence, such that blocking is fine if only it is preserved for a court. It is our very disgust and outrage that drives change. To protect the public from it is to abet such crimes. It's a good thing to protect children from it and a bad thing to treat us all as children.
While naegleria fowleri is a really scary disease and we do get some cases in Texas every few years especially in more stagnant lakes, as far as I understand the risk of contracting it from tap water is pretty low. To infect you in the way that it kills the water has to make it pretty far up your nose, which is why you typically only hear people getting the disease from using a neti pot with untreated tap water. I’m wondering if there are any documented transmissions of people getting it by just splashing untreated water onto their face to wash it for example.

Us Americans use our vehicles to pick up a Hot Wheels jungle gym at Toys R Us, then we spend 3 hours on the freeway driving to another state to pick up some In N Out. We keep 8 large dogs in the back 4 rows, and have to hit Wal Mart to pick up a pallet of toilet paper to clean up. You can't understand our lifestyle requirements.
