Equal doesn't mean idential.

You have an apple in one hand. Since

1 = 1/2 + 1/4 + ... + 1/2^n + ...

you therefore have an infinite collection of apple pieces in your hand? Whether that's a useful description, depends on context. Virtual particles are sort of like this decomposition.

I think that a lot of confusion arises because of the innocuous seeming equal sign. Explicitly replace the equals by approprate (algebraic) maps, and at least for me, the relationship becomes a lot clearer.

Maybe more familiar to HN, maybe it helps to do "typed" math? E.g. counting numbers have a different type than equivalence classes of Cauchy sequences. From a set theory perspective, it makes sense to ask the question whether the number 3 (as a set) equals the collection of triangles in R^3 (as a set). Of course, the two aren't equal, but it seems weird to even ask this question.

Maybe it should be just as incongruous to say that some vacuum state equals it's decomposition into virtual particles. The two things are just differently-typed. You need some computation to convert between them.

I'm sure your suggestion is coming from a good place, but dogs can be quite a burden sometimes, and taking care of them properly is a responsibility. I am taking care of a dog right now that has real barking issues and it's quite annoying but I can't blame the dog.

> it's mostly about accepting the (evidence-free) premise that modal editing is actually a good thing.

Kakoune's development has started fairly recently. The oldest tags on its GitHub repo are for 2018. I think this defies "people want to continue the legacy of actually-not-that-great thing because I had do suffer, so other people should too". I think you'd only put into making/promoting Kakoune if you genuinely thought modal editing is a good thing.

Whereas, if the bigger value in "I learned modal editing" is the signal of "modal editing is hard, so anyone who knows it must be good" (rather than value from a better developer experience), I think aiming to make modal editing more intuitive/accessible is counter-productive.
The accuser should also be held to the same standard. Without evidence those are just empty words.

The EU 1999 Landfill Directive is about the phase-out of biodegradable waste going to landfill. Nothing which composts or biodegrades should be disposed of this way.

These cups should not go in this waste stream, the only end of life is commercial composting as I don't believe they are suitable for home composting.

Yeah it might be distracting from the two questions I did ask. I'll remove the statement because it seems to ruffle some political feathers.

It wasn't intended politically, but rather to say the tax situation is a known quantity already which is why the second question asked to set that aside before answering.
I'm not selling a golden age of wealth for all. I'm selling the right to direct your own life, commit to the good on your own terms and live a life of privacy.

That sounds good to me. To me, and it may have been my own misconception, the tone of your original post seemed to convey a belief it would be great to return to a prior time. If you're actually saying you'd like to choose just certain aspects of those times to bring forward instead of a wholesale return to those times, then I can wholeheartedly agree.
Emacs + Org-mode (once mastered) are excellent for both writing structured text (in org-mode‘s markup instead of markdown), and for managing tasks and projects.

With org-mode I have dozens of files for managing my projects and tasks. And I can mix notes with tasks. This is a feature that makes it exceptional. When I was using Things3 I liked the tiny section beneath the task description where I could type some notes about the task. With orgmode I can write a full outline beneath the task description.

Emacs is extremely flexible as it can be extended with packages written in Lisp. There are packages that allow me to navigate to any outline node in my ~ 200 org files within a second (ivy + counsel + ripgrep-integration, also org-ql which allows me to query my org files).

Also, I write large amounts of text with org-mode (it’s an excellent outliner too; been previously using OmniOutline) and convert to markdown or any other format via pandoc.

Emacs, once mastered is an application framework that allows me automate any workflow for which I previously used AppleScript, DEVONthink, Python, Bash.
It would be a short article.

Either they work with the open stack, or they don't.

In practice, excluding not-ready-for-general-use work, this is down to three families: iCE40, ECP5 and EOS S3.

iCE40 is a good one to get started with, thanks to dirt cheap development boards such as the iCESugar.
Please don't copy/paste comments; it lowers the signal/noise and makes merging threads a pain.

Not well. They’re isolated in their own section of the app and don’t seamlessly integrate with included music like they did in Play Music.
Barely. I don’t know about clisp but for the most part Java and python just provide thin shims over the posix syscalls. They don’t give you atomic transactional filesystem semantics.
> I started learning c recently and I want to learn embedded development, but I don't know where to start or how.

After 38 years of programming in C, I'd instead recommend exploring CircuitPython.org from Limor ("Lady Ada") Fried based on the work of Damien George. Also recommend starting out using one of her kits https://www.adafruit.com/category/116 and avoiding rechargeable batteries (unless they're NiCads) while keeping your USB power adapter on an easy-to-reach power strip for a while.

Even back in the day, I would have recommended new embedded systems developers start with FORTH or BASIC (PEEK and POKE yoh) ..or if it was a serial/UART-controllable device, Phillippe's insanely great Turbo Pascal --that is unless you had already written a lot of applications in C and maybe a few operating system hacks or device driver mods too.
Nix would be useful for a description of the non-Emacs dependencies. Particular versions of the compiler and LSP program. -- Some languages are more fickle about this than others.
I don’t have stats to back me up but are they cup holders or drink holders? Because I think in many parts of the world people mainly put cans and bottles there, than paper cups.
Misleading title as those are not actual DMCA takedowns.

Twitch uses audiblemagic to scan all saved VODs of streams for music and mutes anything it finds specifically to prevent streamers from getting DMCAd. Those are not DMCA notices sent by any copyright holder, that is just Twitch's internal system muting anything they think might be music. Lots of streamers then incorrectly end up calling those automutes being "DMCAd" on stream and Twitter.

You can tell by all the screenshots being of Twitch's VOD manager page that shows streamers what got muted. Notices about actual DMCAs on the other hand are only sent to the streamer via email and don't show anywhere on Twitch currently. Lots of people confusing those two including some news orgs.

RIAA and the music industry are hitting Twitch very hard right now with massive waves of takedowns mostly for people just plainly playing music on stream but also the occasional claim for ingame music made specifically for the game or things like people doing outdoor streams and walking by some music playing randomly in the background in a store somewhere but there's also a ton of misinformation being spread by people completely misunderstanding basic things about both how Twitch and copyright law
work unfortunately. It's quite a mess.
This was indeed the promise of spacemacs. I tried it a few times and roughly 30% of the advertised features were broken out of the box.
The "suffering" has honestly been overblown by jokes about not being able to quit on one side and the mythologizing of the leet ninja 10x programmer who is only bound by his typing speed and can't waste time reaching for the mouse, on the other side.

It continues to surprise me why people have such strong opinions about someone else's editor choice. My current theory is vim users are like vegans/gluten free/paleo/etc, in that its a personal choice that some are public about, and people love to hate on it and "disprove" it for the same reason.
Hey, your app is interesting but I just wanted to point out (if this is unintentional) that your comments are a bit too pushy in trying to get people to promote your app. The multiple new accounts commenting unfortunately isn't really helping.
> Bonus: Growing the market by 0.01% gets you more customers than taking 0.01% of the existing market.

I see what you were getting at, but you erred in this case: the two are identical.

If the market is a million people, growing the market by 0.01% causes you to have 100 of the 1,000,100 people in the market, while claiming 0.01% of the existing market causes you to have 100 of the 1,000,000 people in the market. So the absolute figure is the same, and the fraction you have is smaller.
I'd mention that Xilinx family 7 has project x-ray, and gowin has project apicula.

Not as ready for general use as project icestorm (iCE40) and project trellis (ECP5), but promising.
Too cool!
You say it's about control over the resource, which can be understood as the profit that can be derived from it, but I'd go further and say its just as much about leverage over the regions dependent on that oil or gas.

The US has been vehemently against projects that deliver fossil fuels to Europe by countries that are not its allies, like the Nordstream 2 pipeline or the Iran-Iraq-Syria pipeline. On the other side, Syria has blocked the US-backed Qatar-Turkey pipeline (interestingly drawing gas from the same South Pars/North Dome gas field), sparking US-Syria tensions around 2010.
I think one point the author misses is that a lot of college grads see these prestigious companies, rightly or wrongly, as being the best places to learn to hone their craft. Yes, there may be some self-selecting and self-perpetuating cycle here where the most ambitious seek out the best, but I do think that there's a higher chance you'll find great or even best-in-the-world [software engineers|investment bankers|consultants] to learn from at these prestigious firms than smaller boutique companies.
Votes on HN aren't anonymous in that sense. I don't think that polls should be treated differently than other kinds of upvotes, which already are very intimate data. We take protecting that data and keeping it private very seriously, but of course there's some risk in any such arrangement, so if you don't want any risk, your best bet is not to vote on HN.
Pelosi: FB is “part of the problem” for allowing people to claim election fraud
It seems like several people are assuming that Apple is storing the data now and that it is personally identifiable. My assumption was that, of course they would not do that. But of course I could be wrong.
> Or if you think that's too inconvenient you can take on all the risk if the borrow later disavows the debt.

They are already required by law to assume the risk for fraudulent charges. It's just a mess and hassle for consumers.

It's like leaving packages on doorsteps without signatures. Apparently they just make more money eating the occasional fraud losses than the price of doing something safer.

> So is that depression?

Do a depression test.[1] And remember that there is nothing wrong with being depressed. It's just like having the common cold, it's a temporary illness that can pass.

Seriously, just do the test and if you need meds take them. It can save you a huge amount of pointless lost effort. There is nothing wrong with being depressed.

I am quite surprised to learn, that vi is actually part of POSIX. I mean that is pretty cool and wonder why someone would down-vote that comment?
Apple didn’t not ban them for standing against them. Apple banned them for breaching their contract.

It’s not each application launch. It’s from time to time. It’s for each application as it might be detected to have malware in the future. Also if the app isn’t signed there is no check.

This always irked me about my wonderful doggie poop bags. For 3 years I've been using Earth Rated bags made out of corn starch but they go into the same bin as all the plastic poop bags. So they literally drown in a sea of plastic because I don't want to just leave them by the road.
What UNIX are you thinking of? Even the Berkeley distribution appeared to require a license from AT&T to use, for V7 UNIX. Anything with AT&T's code was litigiously protected, culminating in a law suit in the 90s against 4.4BSD Lite, which was the first to claim to be rid of all AT&T code. Are you saying most installations were just unlicensed copies?

At some level I think everyone is pushing some part of ‘what I really want to do’ to the future. I know I do. At the same time I think it’s important to remember to enjoy the years leading up to step 4, even if that makes the overall path less efficient.

In many (most?) modern distros, vi is a symlink to vim.
Can you remind me of which developers have been banned for standing against Apple AND haven’t broken their contract with Apple?
It's been a big deal for hundreds of years, most notably in economics and the military. Any reasonable company worth their salt was doing "data science" in the 1950s but calling it statistics or logistics or business intelligence to grab a phrase from yester decades.

What boat do you think you're catching besides a reliable middle class job?
> A drive-through or drive-thru (a sensational spelling of the word through), is a type of take-out service provided by a business that allows customers to purchase products without leaving their cars.

American infrastructure is built around cars, more so than many (/most?) other countries. Towns/cities in Europe are generally built to be walkable.

Oh dear. At a time when we humans absolutely must figure out how to consume fewer resources — taxing people for consuming fewer resources seems like a wildly perverse incentive.
It seems like you’re struggling alone. There will be someone you can talk to regardless of your means and who can find you people and resources so you’re not struggling alone. Call a suicide hotline for your country, talk to a therapist, call a Priest, but make a connection and stop suffering alone. You matter. I might be just a person on the internet but I’m praying for you.
I didn't know that Next made things easier, will try reading up on this.
Oh once you've suffered, there's a huge, inexorable incentive to believe you haven't suffered in vain! Completely agree with you that the belief is genuine and sincere. I just don't happen to think it has much basis beyond its authenticity and sincerity.
I’m not talking about fraudulent charges, but entire accounts. Credit cards and car loans opened using someone else’s identity. When that happens today, the victim can spend years trying to unravel the mess and repair their credit files.
Clay is a non-renewable resource.
I used vim for some time could never really get into it. The benefits that it offers over other simple code editors like TextMate isn't really worth the learnign curve.

It pretty much feels like a mini programming language for text editing.
Interesting. My favourite safety expert, Nancy Leveson, uses "incident" to refer to conditions that could easily lead to accident. E.g. driving on the wrong side of a road is an incident. Doing it and colliding with someone is an accident.
Recently, I tried VS Code with the vim plugin and didn't find it to be too bad. Then again it isn't lightweight, but I think part of the problem is, that every programming eco-system has its own tools and one-size-fits-all solutions are unlikely to be small ;-)

However, it VS Code didn't convince me to give up my regular tmux+vim combination.
You put it very well.

It would spark a flamewar about survey design if we ever tried that anyhow. For one thing these are all self-reported.
I agree that you get most of it by reading HN for a few years. However, it is a small old book so not that much of an investment.

It did have a few ideas which were new to me and it presents a holistic consistent management philosophy which you don't get from reading a hodge-podge of blog posts.

Two (for me) new ideas: Matrix organisation is inevitable for large companies in search of the sweet spot between agility and efficiency. Knowledge workers are middle managers.

Overall: Good book but not "you have to read it" level.
In the UK we have the capability[1][2] to recycle all the traditional PE lined coffee cups we use here.

There are also quite a few collection services[3][4]. One of the challenges is separating the waste ready for recycling so having collection points in cafes, offices, and railway stations[5] is a really good start.

There are also some new cups with reduce the amount of plastic in a cup so that it's below the 5% contamination level fr general paper recycling. Personally I think this is not a solution as it's just gaming the system buy encouraging contamination of the waste stream.

Ask HN: What can I/we do now to stop the pandemic?
We need to stop the pandemic - that's for sure. But the emerging isolation/depression in my social circles due to governmental restrictions starts to worry me. A vaccine could help obviously; however atm it feels more like the carrot in front of the donkey.

So what do you think are some paths to go now that provide people some sort of "social life"? I thought about starting an online community project, though it's just a vague idea and personally, I'd prefer ideas which don't involve additional screen-time.

(Creative approaches on how to get the pandemic under control without sacrificing even more social life are appreciated as well).
Agreed. At this point even companies like stripe have been referred to as underrated so many times that they’re bordering on overrated
That is an interesting point.

Internet identity could maybe be a layered thing where one layer takes care of authentication, which is where Promise lives. The next layer could handle information like name and email. And finally a layer that handles your verified identity by an authority. That last layer is where the danish NemID fits in.
Most organizations, over a period of time are destined to decline.

My views on the subject : https://realminority.wordpress.com/

Preventing the decline is possible, but is _continuous_ hard work.
While I like your solution in principle, I can imagine it complicating life awfully...

People email you assets/images for use in your production work: are you going to get that on your 'designer' machine or on your Linux box? Most likely the latter, now you have to transfer it over to the 'work' box. Not technically difficult, but a definite speed-bump in your workflow. Awkward.

Your online document-sharing/demos (say Dropbox, whatever): is that from the work box? the utility box? both? Again, not technically a train-smash, but... awkward. A discontinuity that you'll have to deal with multiple times a day, a detour in your flow.

I can see why many would consider it too much of a hassle.

If I may give you an advice : Python, R and deep learning are sexy but the most important skill to start in data science is SQL. It will help you get your first data role and will be your main tool to solve 97% of the problems you will ever face.

Bonus point it is very easy to learn.
I disagree. Wealthy individuals and companies using their money to lobby for their own interests is immoral. Laws should be written on behalf of citizens, not weighted by wealth. Just because this sort of public corruption is business as usual in the US doesn’t make it good. The rest of the world doesn’t want wealthy Americans to have a say in our laws.

At least here in Norway it would be very unusual for a coffee cup to be left in the car and anyway many of those who do drink a lot of coffee on the go use a reusable cup bought from a petrol station that gives you a year of 'free' coffee. See https://www.circlek.no/koppen for instance.

Why would you ever want to encourage people to litter. We need to encourage people to be responsible and dispose of their waste correctly.
At least you’re stuck on a Mac. I do motion design and I’m stuck on windows because of stupid Apple vs nvidia beef and apple only allowing you to have a good gpu if you pay for Mac Pro with Xeon you don’t need and expensive memory you don’t need.
