Nobody's really threatening anyone yet but the UK and Ireland doing what they can to allow the open border status quo to continue between NI and Ireland because to do otherwise would be to conspicuously wipe their ass with the good Friday agreement and few on either side really wants that.

Product Marketing -> communicate to the market the value of the product built

Product Management -> determine from the market what product should be created, with what priorities, what releases

> E.g. If I am net long in my portfolio and I fear some headwinds I can buy a put or two for the peace of mind. Now those puts should be always considered as worthless, and it is just the price to pay for the peace of mind.

Why don't you just change your allocation?

If you can't sleep at night because of your current portfolio, and gyrations that are occurring, or that you are worried could occur, I would say it's obvious that it's not suited towards your risk profile.

You're burning up some of the potential upside by spending money on the options, so why not simply take some money off the table instead and have a less complicated setup?

That sounds pretty logical but it isn’t. Without travel it would have been a slower motion train wreck. Still a train wreck, but now with even more economic destruction.
This is a common trap that people fall in while trying to understand the problem. It's not that they chose the "wrong software", it's that they tried to scope every aspect of custom-designed software ahead of time.

Imagine if you had to describe in exact detail every possible aspect of a mission to Mars in 1940. You are guaranteed to wind up causing the death of everybody involved, because there is an enormous amount of research standing between where you are now, and having enough information to create a workable design.

The real problem is that the nature of the contracting system doesn't allow for open-ended / minimum-viable projects with iterative development, you have to do your best to write the requirements then throw it over the wall and hope for the best. Of course you're going to wind up with a mess.

It's very nice that this is done with Rust, because I'd love to get rid of AutoHotkey in Windows (which also trivally support this kind of expansions). Do you plan to release individual components as crates?

I don't see myself using single program to do just expansions, but instead building my own program with Rust that has all sort of shortcuts like in AutoHotkey. I could use your expansion code as crate instead.
Yep, that often happens! I sometimes experience this behavior on Google Docs, especially on slower machines
Same here. I recall being most anxious when I worked in level 3 customer support many years ago - a different highly stressful customer problem would land in my lap each day. I used many things to help with it.

One thing that was crucially important for me was to understand the biological causes of anxiety and how it occurs in the human brain. The book Rewire Your Anxious Brain by Catherine Pittman and Elizabeth Karle helped me a great deal. The biggest insight that I got from that book was understanding that there are two distinct causes for anxiety (one that comes directly from external stimuli and one that comes from our thought processes) which we need to deal with in fundamentally different ways. The book gives a lot of advice and strategies for coping with both causes and I highly recommend it.

FUD.
> when I was a kid there were lots of news about global warming and the rising of sea level to life changing amounts in few years

No.

There was no such news, unless your only source of information were tabloid headlines.

It's a favorite strawman tactic of the deniers to say "20 years ago they told us the world would end before today and it didn't", when in truth nobody credible ever said that.

The truth is that since the near-term impacts of global warming became mainstream science and an international political issue in the late 1980s, the overwhelming majority of actual forecasts have steadily been getting worse, i.e. they were way too conservative at the beginning. Also the discourse has almost always used the "by the end of 21st century" time-frame; nobody credible ever said anything at all about (for example) sea-level rise over a couple of decades. Science is by its nature conservative, at least in official forecasts and predictions, and the political pressure was always greatest on the side of avoiding "alarmism". The result is that we're now already beginning to see real impacts (especially in the arctic) that only a decade ago were still being talked about as "by the end of the 21st century".

Sea-level rise isn't going to be fast... even in the worst case scenarios, it's still one of the global warming impacts that over the short and intermediate term we can most easily "adapt" to, by building dykes, moving people and cities, etc. Even if you turn up the heat, trillions of tons of ice just take a while to melt, and no sane scientist ever said it would happen in decades. Other global warming impacts are likely to cause global civilization bigger headaches in the next couple of decades. But over the longer term, sea-level rise is important because it is relentless, and if the last 15 years show us a trend, then it is only likely that we'll continue to see the scientific consensus lean further and further to, and beyond, the current "worst case" scenarios.

> 25% of the Duma is controlled by opposition parties.

An example, in 2014 100% of state senators (they have two houses in their parliament, duma is another one) approved Putin’s request to invade Ukraine. I think that level of conformity would be impossible with opposition parties there.

> 2020 Levada poll gave him a 65% approval rating

In modern Russia, saying you don’t support Putin or his party is risky. It’s not yet as bad as in USSR (the risk was almost 100% then, people were executed, imprisoned, or later forcibly treated in psychiatric hospitals), but it’s slowly getting there.

We don’t know how these same people would have responded if they would be free to express any opinion on the subject.

There was a lot of Norse cultural influence in the North of England, but of course they had a lot of linguistic crossover with the Anglo-Saxons. In some recent historical TV shows the cultural differences between Anglo-Saxons and the Danes are exaggerated for narrative reasons, but they could actually understand each other's languages reasonably well.

The influence of Anglo-Saxon culture is the main reason why English culture isn't the same as French culture, so I don't think you can really say it's defunct. The influence of French is stronger in southern 'BBC' English, but England has a lot of regional dialects that still retain a lot of quite ancient linguistic influences.

Show HN: Computer Graphics from Scratch is now a book, thanks to you
Kubernetes vs. Docker: Understanding Containers in 2021
A long time ago, due to an improbable sequence of events, I found myself teaching Computer Graphics at my alma mater, a year after I took the class myself. Over the following five years or so, my approach to the subject evolved, and I really got the hang of it.

After I stopped teaching, I took my notes, handouts and slides, and made them into a series of articles that I put on my website, where they remained in relative obscurity. Hacker News managed to find it every once in a while, and it was generally well received, but nothing came out of this. Until April 2019. It made the HN front page again [0], except this time it caught the attention of an editor in No Starch Press [1].

Long story short, today I’m incredibly grateful and excited to tell you that CGFS is coming out as a real book, with pages and all [2]. The folks at NSP graciously agreed to let me publish the updated contents, the product of almost two years of hard editing and proofreading work, for free on my website [3]. But if you’d like to preorder the printed or ebook version, you can use the coupon code MAKE3DMAGIC to get a 35% discount at https://nostarch.com/computer-graphics-scratch.

I’m still somewhat in disbelief that my work is getting published as a book, and this genuinely wouldn’t have happened without your support. So once again, THANK YOU :)

Yeah. Not a short squeeze. But still meme stocks. Nostalgic stocks that feel not too highly valued with potential got some love. The two prominent ones are Blackberry and Nokia.

Besides neither being shorted too much, the other major difference vs meme stocks is how both have rather high market caps already. I think they are the only meme stocks with market caps above $5B before they got pushed up. Nokia being far bigger still. I think Ericsson got a bit of side love too.

Palantir was the most immediate meme stock before GME and short squeezing became a world wide news and cultural event. That also always had a high market cap and is now imo trading at a high valuation, even for the current high valuation times.
It's all written there... the article mentions "loyalist communities", had to look it up, but DDG summarizes Wikipedia:

> Ulster loyalism is the political movement for maintaining Northern Ireland within the United Kingdom.

But for some more background info: Northern Ireland is now within the customs zone of EU, and the "EU border" is between the Irish and British islands; otherwise the border would have to be between Ireland (EU) and Northern Ireland (not EU); this has been a cause of conflict in the past, and the UK also signed an agreement in the past that there would be no such border.

So adding a border between NI and Great Britain is pissing off the people who see it as creating a big separation between the 2 parts of the country known as the UK.
Ex-AWS Developer Advocate Twitter Rant on Technical Evangelist Director
Because just like the code page in locales, you should not need to care about terminfo if all you want to do is show some basic color. In $current_year it is OK to assume that the current terminal (if stdout/stderr is a TTY) can at least parse color escape sequences - if yours doesn't then create your own wrapper that strips them. Generally the way git does it should be considered best practice. If

- Output is a TTY

- The NO_COLOR environment variable is not defined

- The TERM environment variable is not set to "dumb"

then enable colors by default.
> Chinese uses a system where every morpheme has it's own grapheme with some minor exceptions. Almost every grapheme maps to a single morpheme and thus a single pronunciation

"Almost" being the key word here. I found 1043 Traditional Chinese characters which have more than one pronunciation in CC-CEDICT (ignoring fifth-tone variants). Since that's such a short list, I'll include it in full here:

Interestingly, the equivalent list for Simplified Chinese is shorter (only 1013 characters) because, although many characters with different pronunciation have been unified, many of those already had more than one pronunciation in Traditional Chinese, so the total number of characters with multiple pronunciations decreased.

Some of those are cases where one grapheme represents multiple morphemes, e.g. 的 (number 15 in the list), which originally represented a target (as in 目的 mù dì aim, objective) but is more commonly used as a grammatical particle (as in 我的書 wǒ de shū my book) and purely as a phonetic sign in 的士 (dī shì/dí shì taxi).

Others are remnants of derivational processes similar to English "foot" vs. "feet", e.g. 中 (third last in the list) pronounced zhōng as a noun (center, middle) but zhòng as a verb (as in 中的 zhòng dì hit the target).

In a reply to a reply, you give the example of English "a" turning into "an" if the following word starts with a vowel. That's analogous to 一 (yī one) changing tone depending on the following syllable, e.g. 一個 (yí gè one), 一起 (yì qǐ together).

Then there's register differences like 血 (xiě/xuè/xuě informal/formal/confused for blood) as in 出血 (chū xiě bleed) vs 血壓 (xuè yā blood pressure)

And that's just the standard language. In everyday speech, people have another set of colloquial vocabulary to draw on, which they may or may not be able to associate with corresponding characters.

It's not as complex as Japanese, but the relationship between writing and pronunciation isn't quite one-to-one for Chinese either.
Loneliness Is What Drives Some People to the Left Wing (bloomberg.com), scientific argument no doubt.
Imagine a $2T company. One day CEO decides that his company should stand for only Republican values, donate them handsomely, buy newspapers for them, start TV channels for them, only offer employment to republican leaning persons, introduce new laws through lobby... All of these is in fact legal. When a company becomes too big, a single person can control its resources towards hurting political system, general public good, tilt opinions and so on. You are then relying on this one person to knowingly or unknowingly not make a bad move. Most often, they will.

yes you can.

the reason is that epidemics grow and shrink more or less exponentially - if you mispredict a particular point in time, the error from that point onwards also grows exponentially. temperature relationship between CO2 and other GHGs are approximately linear. global warming predictions made 40 years ago about average temperature rise are basically spot on.

Of course money is made. Likewise the same amount of money was lost by the people on the other end. You won this one.

However, long term you’d also lose some and in the end you’d probably be about even in terms of cash won and cash lost. Unless you’re an options guru which I don’t know exists. The market maker who gets the contract fee and hedges the contract is the only guaranteed winner long term.

Saying that I trade options when I sense opportunity and have had some outsized winners compared to my losers. However taxes need to be considered too, especially when you have a year with a net realized loss that’s greater than what the IRS let’s you deduct.

The way I’ve seen people get wiped out with options is not managing their bankroll. They’d have just too much of it spread across numerous options bets thinking they were diversified. And then the bottom falls out of nearly everything and the whole thing goes to 0. It happens.

Congrats on the win!
Interesting, I built a similar system for my Vim setup that I
slowly adopted over time. I realised that semicolons are almost
always followed by whitespace or newlines in normal use, so I
started defining a whole range of shortcuts with `;` as a
prefix. As the key is directly on the homerow it's also quick
and easy to use.

For example I have `;out` defined to expand to the correct
stdout print function depending on the programming language used
in that file.

Espanso looks like it's a great way to expand the same concept
to the whole system, albeit (I'm guessing) without the
contextual info a text editor can provide.

I noticed that as images of van Gogh's "Starry Night" kept cropping up recently in various unrelated media. All of them looked like paint-by-number pictures. The original has impasto brushtrokes and bold streaks of barely-mixed colour everywhere and you can spend hours finding joy in the implied detail and the movement and the expressiveness. The online versions inspire you as much as a single panel in a comic strip.
