Rustfmt 2.0 “may not happen ever”
I don't remember it on HN, but this is prodding my memory about an article where the specific executable that was corrupted was `bc' on Linux, if that helps any other readers track it down. I think it specifically broke subtraction or something?

Are you sure you meant to include that "/s"?
Seriously! From a male perspective, I want to have 2 lamborghinis before age 35 but I’m stuck working this stupid 9-5! I’m seriously upset when I’m out on the street and I see hardly any cars, I really feel like it’s my duty to put 2 more cars on the street. Plus it would make me so happy to have 2 cute little lambos of my own resting in my garage. I’ve always wanted some of my own. All to myself, hehe. Work sucks!

>legacy channel allocations

if this issue came from a cable provider it sounds like malarkey.

Vector Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing can be used with traditional OFDM receivers even if the channel arrives as much as 180 degrees out of phase for a traditional allocation. it permits vector subchannelling for modern receivers to get to "new" broadband regulated speeds. when the vector size M=1, VOFDM returns to OFDM and in other conditions it just turns back into SC-FDE Single-carrier (frequency-domain-equalization.)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthogonal_frequency-division_...

>Cable carriers have found in the past that getting people to turn these in to swap out for newer models is excessively expensive in customer goodwill

cable companies are hardly a station of the cross. AT&T and Comcast are renown for forcing customers to pay for modem upgrades to support digital boxes. XFinity X1 boxes are basically outlining how cable TV intends to remain set-top relevant in the 21st century by transitioning the box to 802.11 and ethernet. its also hardly difficult to see a scenario where not only your cable provider forces you to change, but the FCC strong-arms you as well. in 2008 the FCC basically "rechannelled" the VHF and UHF fast-scan TV spectrums to make way for digital TV.

IMO nows the time if they want to do it. cable TV is basicaly a dead animal and needs something, anything to keep it alive. full digital gigabit transition FTW.
Wait, why is the advice to 'do something invasive, risky, and unnatural' when the actual advice should be 'have children when you're younger, not older.'

> another 16 people finding fulltime work is good... but job quality?

I agree, and I'd certainly like to see much deeper data here, but these numbers are way too small to see any real macro pictures. However, I'd consider this a win even if these people took jobs making less money but doing something they were passionate about.

> Maybe because they used their regular income, untracked debit card instead.

Maybe, but a lot of people I know that aren't as well off wouldn't have really cared, or even used that card first for those kinds of purchases.

> All the quotes from participants saying how much greater their life is from both the WP article and this one... perfect score across the board.

You're giving people free money. If you gave me $500/mo, no strings attached I'd give it pretty high marks too, even though it's not something that I need. I may have some suggestions about how to be more efficient, but I certainly wouldn't complain.

Personally I'm cautiously pro-UBI. I think it could be a great tool to make the country far better, not just for the poor, but for everybody. I think that it would add to everyone's security and enable people to prepare for and perform jobs that they want to do, instead of jobs that they are forced to choose due to lack of alternatives. I strongly suspect I'll be in the tax bracket that will end up net negative and pay for this instead of the brackets that benefit directly from it, but just like public schools benefit me indirectly, I suspect that this will be worth it for me.

But without data I classify those thoughts as theories. I'd like to see large-scale data on this, and we won't see experiments at the scale I'd like to see (like counties with large cities in them) without these smaller experiments first.
Copy elision in this example is also required by the language specification (if you're using a modern version of C++).

More like risk compensation:

Not aware of having seen any statements from the EC itself on the topic (it was approved by the EMA for all ages), but I think it unlikely the EC itself would have said anything, if only for one simple self-centred reason:

It would be shooting itself in the foot to admit the vaccines it had bought in a group-buy scheme were ineffective or in any way sub-standard. Member states would be furious, and Ursula would have been gone.

This article has a summary of statements from different politicians - https://news.sky.com/story/covid-19-what-eu-leaders-said-abo... The closest I can see for the EC is one from Ursula, with the article reporting:

"She then suggested the UK had compromised on "safety and efficacy" by approving the jab so early, despite the EMA reaching the same conclusions as the UK's internationally-respected MHRA which approved the vaccine."

(That is realistically just her attempts to excuse a slower approval process that ultimately reached exactly the same outcome)

"I think there’s this idea that all men love career life because it pays the bills. In reality it’s far from a pipe dream existence."

I completely agree.
Yep, live in Middle of Nowhere (ish) UK...I pay £30 for 70mbps, and am very happy. I moved recently from a larger town nearby, there I paid the same price for 20mbps (and it was horrendous service, up/down all day).

I live 20 miles from a fairly large city, there is a gigabit loop there...only high rises, average speeds in the city are 70bmps (which is why I feel lucky, I am right next to an exchange).

The fibre rollout was completely botched in the UK. BT (the former monopoly) was investing in TV and mobile, the govt has caught up with them now (and agreed to CPI+5% rate increases) but all through the 2010s, the only fibre investment was a startup that did a lot but was obviously limited by capital (CityFibre, just acquired by Goldman Sachs...so that should go well). The sector was also gunshy after the fallout from the late 90s: a big company invested heavily in fast internet and tried to overlay BT's network, it got taken to the woodshed.

The only place with consistently fast speeds over 100mbps is a small town/city on the East coast called Hull, due to a quirk of history they are the only place that is outside the BT monopoly (the monopoly there was run by KCom) so they got investment, and pretty much nowhere else did.

I am aware of the issues in the US but the UK is not a good example. As said above, telecoms policy through the whole of the 2010s was seriously mismanaged. We will catch up but we aren't a good example (most of the UK population is densely packed into England, which is the size of Alabama but with over 10x the population...even Scotland, which is roughly the size and population density of Alabama, has 75% of the population in 5% of the land...it shouldn't be hard).
That's true, and in that sense it doesn't really matter if they publish the server source or not (although they really should continue to do so). What does matter is that the client was designed with a possible malicious server in mind so you don't have to trust the code the server is running.
This is an underrated perspective. My wife's mom became a mother at 18, she certainly had a stressful 20's, but by her 30's, she was just a mom working at a bank as a teller, and by her 40's she was a woman in the back office with grown children, and now at 50 she's a VP of something or other with several grandchildren.

Society so heavily stigmatizes teen pregnancy that she still thinks of herself as kind of a screwup, but minus all the self-doubt, it seems like about as well as a life could possibly go.
> When I mention it to someone that I want to take time off for a couple years to have children in silicon valley, they look at me as if I'm an alien. As if wanting to be pregnant and not working at the same time as being sleep deprived and wanting to spend time with my own baby when they are at their youngest is some strange outlandish fantasy.

And this happens way more than people lead on and for the exact BS reasons you call out. As someone who dated in SF not for the hookup but to try and find a life partner who wanted to prioritize and raise a family, it was bleak. We almost seem intent on reinforcing “career is king”, not tearing it down.

Central banks want to keep control on money. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5-IZZxyb1GI) They will crush any entity who will threaten that.

The manifesto lists principles. Principles must be implemented and turned into processes in order to actually produce software. Scrum's daily stand-up is a process, a tool, to implement the following principle:

"The most efficient and effective method of
conveying information to and within a development
team is face-to-face conversation."

And it also contributes to this one:

"The best architectures, requirements, and designs
emerge from self-organizing teams."
That doesn't sound right. 1080p60 should only take about 10 Mbps. Gaming should not require much signal. 4k video does take more.
>Eesh, this again ...

Yes, the HN crowd surely loves to downvote these type of posts. You're the compassionate scientist who has seen this layman's argument too many times. The brain is mysterious, consciousness is mysterious, QM is mysterious, bingo, QM will explain consciousness. Well, that's not what I, as a layman, meant. What I meant was Orch-OR and it is at least a good starting point.

>That debate is settled, but here's the thing: that was never really the issue.

It's still an issue but not in the way you see it. Behavior of microtubules is subject to phenomena like quantum coherence. Microtubules help move mitochondria in the axons. Mitochondria in the axons help suppress or enhance neurotransmitter release. So qm phenomena have a direct effect on the formation of thought. Please let me know If i'm talking nonsense :).

>In other words, we're displaying humility by asserting knowledge of the easy problem, not the hard one.

You've given up already. I believe we can find a plausible explanation for consciousness. The mainstream theory is an absolute non-explanation, and a dead-end.
You're wasting your time if you live there

What would you personally need to see to make that clear? Like, write it down, what is the line in the sand for you, is there one?
So needed to something to correct? So you made obvious small issues?

Used to do this on mock-ups of apps I was building. They wouldn’t fuss at the core functionality if they changed something obvious and not important.
The fact that you need to provide so much more value as a worker isn't due to the fact that both parents tend to work (at least not directly) it's due to the fact that modern society has much more rent seeking than previous generations had to deal with. Because most families have more wealthy individuals can squeeze families more before they reach the breaking point and have done so to the point where the average family doesn't have as much spare as it should given everyone's productivity.

The inability to have one working parent support a family comes down to wealth inequality like a lot of modern ills.

I think it refers to this:

Seek immediate Security Council action to provide assistance to Belarus, Kazakhstan and Ukraine if they "should become a victim of an act of aggression or an object of a threat of aggression in which nuclear weapons are used".

Obviously, Russia did not use nuclear weapon... but maybe the fact that Russia has nuclear weapon and invaded Crimea means Ukraine is under threat of nuclear weapons...
> I think women have largely been presented a false promise by progressives

There's a lot of sneering and judgment by women, toward women who choose to be a stay at home mom and not have a career.
You were misinformed. BTC isn't darknet. It isn't anonymous and isn't a safe haven for illegal activities. It is used as store of value and for speculations, like stocks or metals.
> "WHAT? I thought everyone heard what they wanted to say before saying it. Maybe that’s what determines speaking speeds. I think people that hear what they’re about to say can speak faster than people who can’t."

Don't they have to wait for the voice in their head to finish talking first?

I can't even figure out which type I am. I wouldn't say I understand things visually. I do imagine myself verbalizing a lot of my thoughts as if I was talking to someone - but that obviously comes after having the thought itself. I have no idea what form the thought itself takes.

I do constantly imagine myself having conversations with people (usually people I know irl). I try to explain something to them and they ask me questions and point out problems with what I'm saying. That's how I figure stuff out. Luckily I know a lot of clever people I can use for this.
It seems to me that as long as advertisers have ingenuity they will find new privacy harming ways of tracking us -- it seems like Goggle is moving earth to use their ingenuity instead to make a tracking device that isn't 'too identifying,' and could reasonably form the basis of a 'truce' between users and advertisers -- maybe we should let them?
> It makes a lot of sense for the average person to prioritize family building in their early 20s so that the kids are more self-sufficient right at the time where your career is taking off.

It does make a lot of sense, but my point is that's not what people are doing. The ages that women have their first babies have been increasing [0], and a large part of that is that women are more focused on their careers in their 20's than they have been in the past [1].

Can you cite this actually happening?

If you are asked to leave and do not leave I can see you possibly being arrested for trespassing, but I fail to see what you would be arrested for by bringing in food from outside the theatre. Sure, they could ban you from coming back to property (and this could lead to trespassing arrests, if you did return) but thats about it.
Men can have (with more difficulty, it's true) children for much later in their lives relative to a woman of the same age.
It depends what type of business you want to go into. If you're aiming for high finance/law/management/acting, it's improbable to get into without following the normal formula.

You just reminded how the old Android camera app (maybe Samsung?) used to have a "best" mode. Snap some photos, review the best one(s) and only commit to saving your choices.

It was something that could have probably used a UX refresh, but was instead removed entirely in future phones.

I'd love if cloud services implemented something similar.
I see this a lot as an anti CSRF technique in AJAX based SPAs.
Release cadence and performance issues are orthogonal.

Frequent releases just mean you get updates as they become available. That doesn't mean they can't take on longer-term issues that need several release cycles to complete.

> EVs still require nearly as much servicing as ICE cars

Not true. I had a Leaf for 4 years and only had to rotate the tires and put in washer fluid. That's about 1 service visit a year.

At the same time I had a Subaru that needed two oil changes a year, in addition to tire rotations.

The brakes last much longer due to regenerative braking. (Basically, the motor slows the car down without using brake pads.)
> I'm not interested in buying a hub for a one-off operation.

If cost is the issue, there are a lot of off-brand hubs. I bought one for $15 of Amazon. So far no issues.
IMS was always a database. But it was hierarchical rather than relational. I was thinking TOTAL was earlier than it was though given the company had been in business for quite a while.

What is true is that pretty much all the earlier database products were tied to specific system hardware. In fact, Cincom (which developed TOTAL over time) was arguably the first independent software vendor. So there were lots of databases being put out by successful computer companies (indeed most of them). They just weren't products you would buy or use unless you were also using a particular manufacturer's hardware.
> How much? What's the percentile breakdown? How does it impact their monthly income? What's their economic potential without the degree? Are you suggesting it's higher if most just hadn't gotten a degree? How many choose economically unviable degrees? Who made them do that?

With all due respect, this all falls under rationalization of "well this is just the way things are".

Literally 100% of your statement would apply if were in an alternate reality where children took out student loans for children in K-12. "How does it impact their monthly income? What's their economic potential without kindergarten?"

It's garbage, and much of the rest of the developed world has figured out how to provide higher education to their population for a fraction of the cost that we do—or even free—in the same way we figured out how to provide K-12 to every child without inflicting thirty years of debt on them.

> There's no such thing as "medical bankruptcy", so I assume you mean "bankruptcy caused by medical bills". For how many of these people is the medical bill the sole cause? A major cause? One of many causes?

I assume you're picking nits over semantics because there's no disagreeing with the fact that over one million Americans file for bankruptcy due to unpaid medical bills every year.

You know well the argument that was being made, but you decided to ignore the wider point to quibble pointlessly over semantics. Why?
I don't agree with this take. IVF live birth rates are something like 30% of implantations. e.g. see https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7139227/.

The article you're linking even says that Winston is using the wrong number, and spends most of its time explaining why he's wrong;

> Lord Winston's 1% figure was referring to the proportion of all frozen eggs thawed for use in fertility treatment which result in a pregnancy and subsequent live birth.

You have plenty of eggs; it's not particularly relevant if a single egg has a 1% chance of resulting in a live birth. The extraction process will gather something like 10 eggs (plus or minus a lot) and then later you fertilize lots of those eggs and select the best candidates for implantation. Selectively quoting the single-egg success rate provides an inaccurate picture of the actual success rates of the overall process (one that's quite obscure and therefore susceptible to people misunderstanding when articles publish misleading advice like this).

Furthermore, research shows that the primary factor determining live birth rate is the age of the eggs. As you get above 37/38 the live-birth rate starts to decrease dramatically. If you freeze your eggs at 35 then implant at age 40 then you don't see the same increase in failure rate as if you just did IVF at age 40.

IF you want to postpone having kids until your 40s, but you know you really want to have kids at that age, then freezing your eggs is a good strategy for those that can afford it.

I'm all for giving women more choices/options around child-bearing; it's already difficult enough for women to balance career and children in modern society.

> Insurance policies usually guarantee a payoff. In this case, there is no guarantee.

If you're looking to buy an insurance policy that guarantees you will get pregnant, I'm sorry to say no such thing exists. All you can do is improve your probabilities. Freezing your eggs does this.

> Women should be doing it because it’s the best option they have

Again your quote is actually arguing for freezing eggs being a good option. What would you say "sound advice" is for women that want to defer having children until their 40s, if it's not freezing their eggs?
> Startups take much longer than you’d think before they become successful.

90% of startups fail, they NEVER become successful. Gambling on some theoretical future success is just bad advice.

Also egg freezing and late age pregnancy is VERY expensive and complicated. Author herself had three miscarriages.

I would suggest something else: have children between 18-25, and start self funded company while working at home. By early 30ies, kids will be at school and company should generate some income.
kids = status = protection
