Not wood working, but I remodeled almost my entire last house. 1 kitchen, 1 bathroom, 2 bedrooms, a hallway and minor work to the dining room and family room. These were complete guts down to the studs with new windows, doors, electrical, plumbing, insulation.

Expense wise, you need quite a few tools and obviously materials. Doors I always went with solid core doors (vs hollow) and double pane windows. We used fiber glass insulation and drywall was appropriate to the room (water proof drywall in the kitchen / bathroom, regular in the rooms) always at least a half inch.

Demolition was fun if not exhausting (plaster and lath walls). Neighbors took the original doors to match existing builds.

Took time to get good at mudding the joints to get them smooth. I did the electrical; sub contracted out for plumbing. I don't mind electrocuting myself lol, but a leak in plumbing and you can throw all of your work out.

Dad (who has experience) helped and I learned a lot from him (especially on cutting trim and tile). Otherwise watching a ton of home improvement shows; youtube videos; etc...

All of it is totally doable; just need to take your time, measure 20 times, cut once, etc...

My favorite work was masonry - I built a brick pizza oven 1 year; then a concrete block planting wall with a fireplace in it the following year.

Can't say I want to do it again; took all 8 years before we divorced and she kept it to get everything but 1 bedroom done; but if I have to when I buy my next house, I know I can and how.
Totally get your point of view, and I share it in vacation contexts.. As the hotel chains have consolidated, they slice pennies everywhere.

When I'm travel for business or putting my head on a pillow on a roadtrip, consistency makes my life easier and less stressful. I'm a gorilla-sized person :), I would rather stay at higher end hotel that provides an actual bath sheet than a marriott whatever where I have to call for 6 towels. Surprises aren't delightful at 10PM when you've been on the road for 15 hours.
>TVs are too smart now

This is why I’m so reluctant to look into modern TVs. The quality on my mid-range 2014 Sony is pretty average at best by today’s standards, but at least it’s not smart enough to know what I’m watching and has no network connectivity.

This also means I can’t easily control it with a smartphone without something like Logitech Harmony which is just awful in UX, but still… it can’t track what I’m doing on the TV either.
To say nothing of the smorgasbord of "dark UX" patterns now used on the site, so anathema to the ethos of its original creators.
I really liked OnShape for my latest woodworking project.

Allows to make 2D drawing and assemblies etc, even animate joints. It's not open-source unfortunately though.

We know very little, yes. And sciences fail to admit this often. We are very confused, too. But it seems your just settling for alternative false stories. Did you study enough chemistry to say something like that? Doesn't seem so. It seems you are just watching some youtube video that defies traditional authority with some new bullshit. You said some group has full control of social appearance (for 100years at least), and when I ask for more info you just deviate.
On the other hand, I'm sure your intentions are the best and I think you are and should keep being free to think however you like. The great challenge is: what it achieves?
Apple fanboys or rust fanboys who talk about superiority of ARC on programming forums are also likely not knowing computer science terms like cache and contention.
> Kitty should just identify as xterm like every other terminal written in the last 20 years.

This is not my experience at all. I'd say most of terminals, including modern ones, have unique terminfos and work miserably when it's not installed. Examples include ST, kitty, alacritty. On top of that we have terminal multiplexers like tmux and screen which provide their unique terminfos as well.
> Not true. They run when the object is deallocated. In CPython if the object is not involved in or referenced from a cycle, that’s as soon as it goes out of scope: the ref count goes to 0 and the object gets deallocated.

That's a CPython implementation detail, not a guarantee that you can rely on.

For example, both PyPy[0] and Jython use tracing GCs where this is not true.

C++ does have something along the lines of Rust traits now, it is called concepts and was added in C++ 20.

Mind you it probably has very little real world usage right now..

Concepts aren't as powerful as Rust traits in that they are static dispatch only, while Rust supports both static & dynamic-- but they should make for cleaner code than <type_traits>
As GGP, I feel like I should clarify: I agree with this. No knock against Kitty or Kovid - I used to use Calibre extensively, and he's maintained two beloved open source projects very well. My only point is that Kitty is a very opinionated piece of software, and one should keep that in mind if they want to use it.
Lowering barriers of entry to programming considered harmful to career programmers. If you support it without being manager level or above, you are harming yourself.
The originals are not ultimate truth. They are messy evidence.
I did not get a good sense based on the brief mention whether the author of the review feels that Stepanov and Rose's follow up From Mathematics to Generic Programming is worthwhile as a text.

I appreciate that he likes and recommends Stepanov's lecture series on youtube:

> Are you seriously suggesting a world where we want to make it harder for people to understand programming language literature?

I'd like the barrier for entry to be a bit higher if I'm honest. Maybe then I wouldn't have to work with code created by so many idiots.
> Some things that would be convenient when notated implicitly make thinking about other things difficult.

This really comes out in math, where choice of notation can call attention to different aspects of a concept. The Wikipedia page for ordinary least squares, for example, freely intermixes (depending on how you count) 3 or so different styles of notation.

I think that this is why I've always been fascinated by Knuth's literate programming. If you want to make something more understandable, saying it twice in two different ways is a great technique.

>Crumple zones and airbags take space.

No. They really don't. You can shove airbags in anywhere and the passenger cabin is not a crumple zone and is supposed to be rigid. The reduction in interior space comes from fatter structure in the pillars and the various other reinforcements (for that cabin rigidity). Then you add fatter interior trim (to hide fat wiring harnesses and reinforcements and thick sound deadening while still providing clean-ish lines) and the effect compounds.

That assumes that more programmers doesn’t mean more programmers. I suspect the inverse, the more programmers we have, the more systems they create to program, and the more programmers we need.

GDPR says you cannot require someone to give up privacy to provide a service if you can provide that service without their giving up privacy.

Therefore you cannot say if you give up your privacy I will show you the rest of this article, because there is nothing intrinsically requiring personally identifying the user for you to be able to display the article.

Thus if they say you will have to pay with your privacy or with money to see this, they are no longer GDPR compliant.

Of course a paywall would be GDPR compliant, ironically enough.

> Saying that it might be caused by anything is a low effort dismissal.

I am dismissing it as:

One paper = interesting hypothesis

Multiple replicated papers = theory

Multiple replicated papers, with substantially different methodologies = scientific fact

> Yes I have, on both sides. Maybe it differs by field, but I (and my fellow PhD students) took it serious enough that we rarely read and finished writing a peer review within a single day. (This was mostly on economic theory / methodology papers, where even understanding the paper can take multiple days.)

Interesting. I've worked in several fields, and if this is the case, economics is pretty special. Good on you!

It wasn't always this way. As an economist, you study incentives. Think about how to prevent your field from sliding the way others did. Right now, academic incentive structures dictate cursory skim, and cultures+behaviors tend to (often after many years) align to incentives. As someone in a field (apparently) further along that path than economics, all I can suggest is to act sooner rather than later. It's easier to preserve cultures of integrity than to fix cultures of the opposite.
Thanks for sharing. I had no idea.

I think it’s a really interesting approach of stripping away a ton of information and relying on the musician having heard the music before.
More genuine concern is lowering bar to entry below a certain level leads to decline of quality.

Just like how there is a class of programmers who don't understand simple CS concepts like algorithm complexity and memory allocation and write horribly inefficient code.

Yeah, these quotes all seem like ad lapidem, just unsupported vague claims. I'm not even sure I agree people can be "closer" or "farther" from the past when looking at an image, it's a poetic way to look at the difference but not precise, and seems like it would evaporate if we tried to find any quantifiable measurable effects.

> No, your contract doesn't get renewed automatically. In Germany usually your contract says it will automatically extend for a year unless cancelled.

I don't understand what distinction you're trying to draw there. It definitely feels as though the contract is automatically being renewed. Contrast with what I view as "a mere extension" - you contract for two years, and then after that two year period is over, it extends on a month-by-month basis and you can cancel at any time.

>There's nothing wrong with that, you just need to read what you sign.

This is a silly argument. The idea that large businesses and individual customers are equal has been disproved multiple times. It's like arguing that the American and European health care systems are equal. I can't modify the contract to have a fair and reasonable cancellation terms. But the business doesn't need to have unfair and unreasonable cancellation terms to provide a competitive product. It's just that they can say "These are the terms on which we will do business. Accept them, or accept the equivalent terms from another business."

In Germany, consumer rights basically don't exist and the playing field is heavily tilted towards big business.

I'm not sure why you're being so heavily down-voted since you're quite close to the truth.

Airbags mostly take up what on other cars was dead space behind trim.

Crumple zones #1 function is to buy time for the airbags to deploy between when the front of the vehicle starts slowing in a crash and when the cabin starts slowing. Think about it, if the cabin decelerated at the same rate as the front bumper the occupant would be half way to the steering wheel by the time the bag finished exploding and they'd get hit in the face with an exploding airbag. Crumple zones #2 is deceleration and is tuned for a specific speed of impact. They can be thought of as a single use coil spring without a damper. Too slow of an impact and they do little to nothing (no big deal because it's a slow impact). Too fast and you will blow right through your available travel and bottom out hard. Because the car manufacturers are not staffed by idiots they respond to incentives and tune their crumple zones to be most effective at crash absorption at the high end of the speeds they are tested at.

Most of the increase in "wall thickness" so to speak, of vehicles is from pillars and body structure that increases in width (to get more strength without adding too much material and weight). Then the trim is layered over that and that means you not only lose the space where the reinforcements are but over the whole vehicle.
> Anyone remember all the different ways music was represented as they grew up? What about guitar tabs? I remember simplified math as a kid.

I don't remember different notations for math and music as a kid...

Music was always sheet music, even when I learned classical guiter; Chord names were "procedures", at times spelled out, and sometimes only referenced. Guitar tabs exist, but were only for people who wanted to play without taking the time to actually learn the craft (at least when I was growing up) EDIT: This was the attitude of every teacher around me growing up, not mine.

As for math - other than having variables written down as empty squares, circles, triangles and stars which were later replaced by letters, I think the first real simplification of math notation that I met was Einstein summation; Everything else was just building on previous things, sometimes with new concepts (like complex numbers) and sometimes as shortcuts (limits and infinites). But they were all shorter than what they replaced, and compatible.

> I think this hits on the right approach, which already exists: different languages with different complexity levels for notation.

There was a guy who proposed something along the article's lines in 1958, which went even farther - instead of "single word descriptions", he chose a single symbol graphical description, because -- though ignored by the author of this article -- most of the world does not have English as their first language. I like the result of that 1958 suggestion a lot; most people place a SEP field over it. The guy is called Kenneth Iverson and the language is called APL with modern descendants J and K.

Most people in the western world already have access to far more calories than they need. Many already consume more than they should. For these people, bread would be a net detriment since it's mostly empty calories.

I think we have mostly been talking past each other as I don’t disagree.

Anyway, for a more detailed description of what I was expecting. A least initially it’s going to act just like hot air. Hydrogen’s is 7% the density of air so Tritium is presumably 21% the density of air. Which is similar to air at 2000f without the particulate matter of smoke.

About 100kg should be roughly 500 cubic meters depending on temperature, but a more reasonable limit of ~10kg is still close to 50 cubic meters of gas. If we are talking a sudden release from say a pressurized tank rupturing outside that’s going to from an invisible but mushroom shaped blob and rise. Where a detonations mushroom cloud stops rising as the temperature cools, this thing only slows as it mixes with air which isn’t that fast. The troposphere is only ~8miles up so it’s likely to reach the stratosphere mostly intact.

If we’re talking a venting pipe or something that releases gas more slowly then you get much faster mixing. However, baring the slowest of leaks we are still likely talking going up hundreds of feet at a minimum and more likely miles before it dispersed enough to act like the rest of the atmosphere.

In the absolute worst case, you still get a lot of vertical mixing of the atmosphere from thermals and rapid dispersion from the wind which doesn’t slow down. Within days you’re talking thousands of cubic miles of atmosphere. So, a short term evacuation of those down wind might happen, but they should be able to return in days.
