It's lack of a normal, standard scoping model alone teaches a very flawed reasoning about computer programs.

Scoping in class definitions is weird, yes. But is that your complaint? What's wrong with the scoping model in general?

If 'cars' as means of transportation are analogous to bitcoin as currency, then the car would cost a fortune and you'd keep it in the garage, while driving around on a horse.
I would Google Equity Risk Premium. I believe your estimate is correct but that assumes a risk-free rate of more than zero. The risk-free rate is close to zero, which is why DSM forecast ERP of 350bps (and I believe their data still has survivorship bias). Also, remember that we are quite near the top in a market that is 50-60% of world share, so I would be conservative about projections when the end year is favourable (as an example, Stocks for the Long Run had a very big estimate of long-term returns in the late 90s...that fell in the subsequent years).
Pro-protip: don't use echo.

# panic STRING-FORMAT [...]
#
# write printf-formatted message to stderr, prepending
# script name, and exit failure
panic() {
printf "%s: %.0s${1}\n" "${0##*/}" "$@" >&2
exit 1
}

Prepending the script name is immensely helpful when diagnostic messages are mixed on stderr. It's also standard style for Unix utilities in general. The BSD extensions err(3) and warn(3), provided by all modern Unix libc implementations and commonly use by shell utilities, prepend the program name.

Another common style guideline is to include context for the diagnostic, often prepended. For example,

wget --quiet --output-document /usr/local/bin/mybinary "$download_url" \
|| panic '%s: unable to download' "$download_url"
Curly braces are POSIX and work fine in dash. (Perhaps when testing you forgot these restrictions, which are the same as in bash: there must be whitespace after {, and a newline or semicolon before }.)

Magazines have no use whatsoever? I hit back. I recently ordered some magazines from a neighborhood girl. As they arrive I flip through them and notice how perfectly currated and edited they are and this makes gleaning new, valuable information from them very easy. I flip to the back and see the ads from reputable companies making me aware of their innovations. So much valuable information so quickly about a deep subject (home building). After that I realized how chaotic the internet still is and how horrible search engines and websites are in general. Almost completely screwed up by data tracking, weak writers, SEO, noise, FUD,and just plain dilution. We have along way to go before we write off magazines as useless. I'm sure there is good, no great, information on that site. Have fun reading every last word to find it. Pick up a good magazine and see how it feels to consume it. You can even submit comments and if they are worth anything they will be published and replied to. Long way to go indeed.

The humanities don’t say that science is sexist and colonialist. That’s a strawman.

I’ve never understood why STEM folks hate the humanities so much. I for one like both mathematics and history. I like coding and I like music. I find value in all of them.

I don’t think I’m a rare case. Actually, I think most people are like that. It’s only on HN that I see so many people look down on the humanities like they were a scam or something.
I don’t know why I have to explain this, but I’m not aware of any situation in which a renter builds equity in the underlying asset either.

Under rent control the situation goes from being extremely advantageous to the landlord to just being regular advantageous.
I think the argument was that it represents a sub-exponential factorization algorithm, so while he demonstrates with 800, it is ostensibly broken at above that.

Note of course that polynomial time factorization doesn't mean "fast", it means feasible. So what a professor at a university can do (800bits) does not necessarily represent what can be done with someone with more money and computers (NSA, Google, AWS, ...).

Assuming this holds up of course.

I do know those numbers, he showed me. The contributions to the pensions were higher and the pension growth was just garbage for two reasons:

- there was no individual selection in pension investment. They are risk averse so you end up with bullshit total market stuff that gets tepid gains compared to US stocks.

- it’s impacted by the performance of the company. Many pensions invested part of the money into their own stock/industry so a downturn would impact both job prospects and the pension performance

Pensions are “I know better than thee” bullshit run by a company with some kind of elected moron deciding what happens with your retirement. No thanks

Your demo video looks really great. I hope no one uses 0 seconds. That's one thing I find annoying about a lot of YouTube channels. They talk very fast and edit out all the spaces. My brain just simply can't keep up with it. It's too bad because the content is interesting but it's completely unintelligible and exhausting. I watch most of my videos via Chromecast, but Chromecast doesn't allow you to play videos at slower speeds. And it wouldn't add back the spaces anyway.

What if your tool was available in real time for people who wanted it and then I could have normal videos.
One could reasonably argue that since wind and solar power wouldn't save their bacon in an extreme weather situation it could also be perceived as a mal-investment, HHOS. If investing in "green" energy can divert capital and attention from systems reliability and resiliency, ERCOT's got some splainin' to do...especially since the author (Mackey) asserts that wind and solar were not expected to produce in the winter, whereas Texas supposedly has about 30 GW of wind power capacity[1].

The article seems to be relying mostly on indignant protestations. In reality solar and wind must be coupled with storage in order to act as reliable baseload generation.

So although solar and wind (and hydro) can reduce combustion generation, it can't be relied on to offset these particular risks of excessive demand (from people freezing, y'know?) which resulted in costly exposure. As evidenced by the reduced capacity.

It doesn't surprise me to learn that at all, because I've been confused about having two clipboards in Linux. But I don't remember hearing the term "primary selection" - my interpretation of the behavior was that there are just two separate clipboards. I guess that's not accurate - why not?

Agreed, but if cheap is your goal, you shouldn't be hiring junior devs. The leanest companies I've seen/worked for were all senior people. "No passengers".
I don’t know if we have comparable life experience.

I have seen more shitty code than high quality code in my life. It’s hard for me to empathize with anyone who thinks startup code is going to generally meet some decent quality bar.

People like Brian acton and Jan Korum exist, but they are the exception. If you always expect people to write good code, you will be fucking disappointed.

The only solution that scales is having adequate speed bumps and guard rails that prevent people from pushing code till after it’s been properly tested. And just because it’s in a git log doesn’t mean it gets pushed to production.

Mining is productive. It supports the payment system. BTC does not. If we took 90% of all coins, shoved them in a wallet, and destroyed the key it wouldn't change the network's capabilities at supporting payments or storing value or whatever. That's the difference between a productive asset and something else.

An AMZN share on the other hand represents some small percentage of actual labor and production being done by Amazon's employees.
Also minimize middle-persons and standardize the sales and transfer and ownership contacts (preferably at a state or higher level).

The goal should be to make it easier and more orderly to transfer property ownership, while also providing protection to those making the sales.

The standard contacts should also include enumerations of inspection agencies and what type of inspections were performed (and when), and the various types of insurance which might also be optional and cover protection for buyer / seller / etc.
> Code review is a sticking point for a lot of the junior hires I've worked with.

Well, there's always Starbucks aa a fallback. Just ask AOC.
They localize all the unsafe type casts to one place, where you can inspect the logic, though. Much better than having `as string` sprinkled throughout your code.

You should buy organic at the farmers' market AND the supermarket, but that's a different topic.

It's definitely not clear to me that farmers' markets are worse for the environment - in many cases, it's the same farmer looking for a direct-to-consumer outlet for some of their product.
You should be testing regardless of the strength of your type system.

But testing with a weak type system isn't going to give you anywhere near the guarantees you'd get from a well-designed type system in addition to testing: https://kevinmahoney.co.uk/articles/tests-vs-types/

There's also the question of taste. I've tried both Beyond and Impossible, and the latter is simply much more delicious.

I've tried Burger King's Double Whopper and Impossible Whopper side by side, and even though the Impossible doesn't taste like real meat, I was surprised how good it tasted. So much so that I would have no problem forgoing real beef and going with the Impossible Whopper. (I have since returned to BK many times and have just gotten the Impossible Whopper)

Beyond doesn't inspire that kind of reaction. It's just like any old veggie burger.
GLSL is not a native language understood by the GPU. GLSL is a high level language which has to be compiled to machine instructions for the GPU, just like HLSL and WGSL.

Classic stockholm syndrome.
It sucks but I have to use it to survive so now I love it.

>> Making impossible states impossible

Well if they're already impossible, there is no need to make them impossible.

>> exhaustive checks

There is no such thing in coding. You can never exhaustively check all possible issues.

>> Spotting bugs early

How about learning to write good tests?

>> Rich IDE support and ease of refactoring

Yes, TS makes it much easier to write and refactor spaghetti code with low cohesion and tight coupling. If you have clean code with good separation of concerns, it makes no difference to the refactoring experience at all if you're using TS or JS. Why TS developers always talk about refactorings? If you need to 'refactor' your code, it means you designed it wrong. Perhaps TypeScript encourages over-engineering which necessitates constant refactoring?
There are only two ways I think this can work.

Hey all, this is a pet project of mine that I showed on Reddit about a month ago but I wanted to make some more changes and somehow I forgot to put it on HN! I was really frustrated with all the tools I was using when learning Japanese so I set my mind into making my own.

Here is the brief:

- Text selection of subtitles allows for quick dictionary lookups within the application

- Search current clipboard and open browser to Jisho.org, DeepL or Google Translate

- Export cards to AnkiDroid, complete with a snapshot and audio of the current context

- Selecting a word allows export to AnkiDroid with the sentence, answer, meaning and reading

- Repeat the current subtitle from the beginning by flicking horizontally

- Swipe vertically to open the transcript to jump to time and review subtitles

- YouTube support for videos with Japanese user-generated subtitles

- (Experimental) Custom Japanese-Japanese dictionary support (tested for Shinmeikai)

I've also garnered some responses from the debut Reddit thread I made on the r/LearningJapanese subreddit here: https://www.reddit.com/r/LearnJapanese/comments/lcf9wi/

I try to actively respond to any support and bug reports I get from that thread as well as the project GitHub page.

The app is written in Dart and powered by Flutter. Only an Android version for now, but I'm looking to port this app over to iOS if possible but I'm having trouble with the MacBook I'm using and all the platform-specific changes I need to make.

Any feedback and suggestions would be much appreciated!

This is breaking all the code which relies on deno.land/std and deno.land/x registries too.

In the meantime, you can rely on other module registries or cdns:

2. https://www.skypack.dev/

3. https://esm.sh/

You can also use raw github links but don't do that in production.

I really don't this this, I think the average person really wants a good reliable car. Cars are pretty nice to have. Travelled to an Airbnb 3 hours away with my dogs and kids last weekend. No way I could have done that in 3 hours with public transportation. Even if I took a train that allowed my pets, you still face the issue of the last mile or 5 from the terminal. There are also no crazy people in my car and I don't have to worry about someone sitting next to me coughing. If anything this pandemic has made me appreciate cars all the more so.

Without a car, everything transportation related has to be planned and weighed.
Part of the "benefit" is the software breaking again in the future. Like I said, there is no cost to software failing and even a benefit. If people died when software failed, that 25x effort would probably become 5x dude to efficiencies of people actually working on the problem
Which claim, and how?
The idea that if half of all housing in a city were sitting empty (which is what doubling housing supply means) would only cause prices to decrease by a couple percent is completely ridiculous on its face.

Go look at SF housing prices lately to see how the moderate increase in supply, from people moving out of the city lately, has caused an absolutely huge rent drop of around 30% .
The losers also include the children of those benefiting from rent control, just a decade or two in the future.
Yea, I felt like it was kind of weird at the time, but I was also young and cocky and used my privilege to get the place in a highly competitive market. I don't feel good about that later in life.

In his defense, I don't think he was discriminating against minorities as much as he was just trying to find a good tenant, in a sea of applications, that wouldn't cause him a lot of headache.

Yeah, it's very weird that a language developed by the DoD ended up popular in the EU but much less so in the US. I'm not sure why that happened. I did do a stint in Italy about 16 years ago and they preferred VHDL there at that time as well, so it's not exactly a new phenomenon. I did a VHDL project for a US company last year so it's not like it's completely unheard of here. Another way to look at it is that there are fewer people who know VHDL so when you do find places that are doing VHDL projects there's less competition.
None.
