I’m not a celebrity, but I can’t sustainably gain weight. I don’t eat much (or at all) less compared to others who have larger bodies. I know this isn’t limited to male population, too. My sister has a similar body type and never had to restrict her caloric intake for this[0] (I just asked to be sure).

It would appear that the article briefly engaged in overgeneralization and propagation of the “you can’t be skinny unless you under-eat” myth.

[0] I’m sure it’s somewhat less of a problem for her than for me, as the weight gain issue applies to muscle mass as well and that stereotypically matters more for males. As a downside that affects us both, though, we sometimes experience an issue where inadvertently not eating enough—and this would still be more than a person on a diet might eat—can result in very unpleasant states with shakes and headache (probably low blood sugar or something like that).
Definitely worth noting the year, but I’d be fairly surprised if the standards for real-time avionics software changed much since then. I’d guess they still stick to a small subset of the Goliath that is C++
All installations of X. X has no sandboxing. What most of these clickbait articles or concepts fail to mention is that at the very worst, you can get the same level of access that was possible before the sandboxing was added.

If an app has write access to your home folder, it has root. But with flatpak and portals, its realistic that direct home dir access will no longer be a thing for most apps.
> A show that I listen to skipped a week during the early stages of the pandemic. I was concerned that one of the hosts was ill / possibly dying. It was some planned thing, like a vacation or something. A little notice would have been nice.

I’d imagine it can be a real grind, endlessly producing a podcast week after week. If it’s anything more than walking up to a mic and talking stream of consciousness, the prep work must take hours.

Most podcasters have other jobs. On one hand, I’m surprised that we don’t see people taking a seasonal approach, to give themselves a break, recharge, and maybe put in work writing and researching in the down time. On the other, it seems so many are afraid to walk away, even temporarily, for fear of losing an audience.
I seem to be in the minority, but I really prefer larger-sized eink tablets. This could be because I often use mine (remarkable) for reading arxiv papers, and they assume a standard A4 paper size. So for me, I'd take a larger tablet over a color tablet. I'd still love a color version, at least to be able to highlight things or mark things up in a different color.

EDIT> It doesn't make sense to lump murder in with generic violent crime. The US is an outlier among developed countries for murder. This is much worse than having comparable levels of generic violent crime.
The important difference between violence and nudity on film is that the violence is completely fake, while the nudity is actually real.
>Modern action and superhero films fetishize the body, even as they desexualize it.

The simple truth for the reasoning behind this is the same as why the average TV show is written at the fifth grade Kincaid reading level. In late-stage American capitalism delivering a product with consistent and maximized returns has become a critical priority.

Sex in cinema isnt used to tantalize moviegoers to buy the ticket anymore as its now a foregone conclusion you will consume the product. Marketing knows precicely how many of you will watch. The challenge is to maximize consumption.

the average Bollywood flick is hypercapitalism. Each piece taylor crafted to appeal to an entire family, their demographic spans 60 years in age. Theres romance, dancing, action, mystery, and comedy all rolled into every single production because its guaranteed to cast the widest net.

creating a one-size-fits-all product with set limits in 2021 is only running into concerns or difficulties when actors themselves break their eternal character with audiences as a role model and post something online thats in poor taste that outs them as a human being.
I love this about British/ Nordic tv. It feels as though every show injects more gritty realism compared to US polish. There is a spectrum though and US is actually on the better end. Most Asian tv shows feature the a tiny pool of the same gorgeous people who may or may not have acting skills.
For sure there are important and interesting questions there. I'm not asking people not to talk about those!—just to do it in a way that isn't just repeating what always gets said. Otherwise there's a power-law dropoff in information transfer...like telling the same joke or repeating the same word over and over.

There's nothing wrong with repetition per se. There is pleasure in it—it's just a different kind than the pleasure of curiosity. The problem is that we can't have both pleasures at the same time, and HN is a site for curiosity.
This is one of those moderation calls that seems arbitrary and obscure until you take literally that we're trying to optimize for just one thing, and then it follows rather straightforwardly.

(It's really a sweet spot to have only one thing to optimize for—one gets to have fun being radical about following it to all its counterintuitive consequences.)
My understanding is that a lot of people who join the military now come from military families, so they're kind of already prepared for it. (This is different from AOC's claim which is the military preys on poor students and gamers.)

If you're going in just as a drone pilot, the fitness standards wouldn't be needed for anything, so presumably they expect people to still be doing something up close and physical though?
For security related jobs you need a clean criminal record n Greece/Cyprus but if you ask my opinion a criminal knows how criminals work and think so it would be an asset to have a criminal working (with devotion, not trolling) for a security company.
Did you compel them to make that deal?

Did you deceive them to make that deal?

You had the credit and financial resources to commit to that purchase.

Some reasons they may choose to rent instead:
- lack capital
- lack credit rating
- not willing to commit for the long-term
- not want to be responsible for maintenance
- not willing to assume risk in the real-estate market

I know people who are financially literate and have capital who choose to rent. I chose to purchase, but came to realize that “home ownership” is two-way — to some extent you’re also owned by the home.
Also, machines were phased in and out with quite some volatility. Just wait 4 months and you could get that high-end machine at a bargain. Also, there were (mostly short-lived) bundles, especially for the educational market. From a consumer's perspective, timing was everything.

I picked up a Centris 660av in an attractively priced bundle together with a monitor as my first desktop Mac. (Later, the first websites, I made, originated on this machine.)
In both art and love, the person who experiences them perceives links between their own identity or characteristics and the art/object of love, or sees these characteristics projected back at them through the art/process of loving.

Oh I don't agree. I think there are downsides to putting a 'mod' tag beside usernames, quite strong downsides actually, in addition to the upside that you guys are correctly noting. It's a tradeoff. I'm glad that I listened to my intuition 7 years ago (ack) when I became responsible for HN, and chose to trust the way things had always functioned here.

The parts of that story involving Cobra are almost uncomfortable to discuss. It was an attempt to raise the stakes but I didn't like it at all.

Even putting the weird "we should exterminate them all" Cobra character aside, the idea made no sense logically. The Kilrathi didn't activate Hobbes during WC 1's Secret Missions 2 (during their holiest rituals for Sivar) but suddenly decided to do so when they were basically about to win (and had no idea about the Temblor Bomb et al)

It's part of a problem I have with a lot of fiction with sequels that has the heroes make significant character strides with implicit guarantees to the reader/viewer, only for those to be completely thrown away in the next volume / installment / etc..

In this case, Hobbes proves himself through Secret Missions 2 (when you fly the Kilrathi fighters) and then in WC2 (which seemed far more pivotal than the situation in WC3). Then for cheap drama and fake "serious" points, they flip the script in WC3 because your well-supported implicit understanding was only implicit and "it doesn't count".

Murmur AI+ML to Bridge Outdoor Advertising with Online
Hi everyone, I finally completed developing the Murmur web app. Murmur is like Segment to bridge outdoor advertising with online and helps startups save advertising money and better understand their target audience.
Here is a Video recording where I describe how to use Murmur.

Well being free is still a benefit. And it is much faster then then any jetbrains IDE.

I prefer jetbrains like you, but some people like their apps to be really snappy.
One wonders what the work culture was like in the U.S.
I once read a reader question in a mainstream game magazine (GameInformer I think?) where they asked why it was ok for games to have violence but not sex. The answer was extremely angry they had to explain this, like a parent lecturing a child who'd just embarassed them in public.

But anyway, their answer was the opposite of yours. Violence in games is good because you "shouldn't do it in real life". Sex in video games is bad because you "should do it in real life". The kids currently call this "touching grass" or "getting some bitches".
The public clamor for “$2k” checks, which comprise less than 1/4 of the $1.9 trillion dollar package that’s now entering reconciliation proves pretty strongly that the public is not sensitive to the cost of their government “benefits”.

The Democratic Party has never been particularly concerned about taxes and debt. The Republican Party is periodically concerned about it, but mostly when they don’t control the government.

I used to think Democrats would tax and spend, and republicans would borrow and spend. It looks like both will now print money (expand the money supply) and spend.

The next few years will be an interesting test of “Modern Monetary Theory”.

Children also play doctor all the time and look at stuff. They're curious about stuff like this and don't get damaged by it.
I always wonder if expectations are set correctly for “kids these days”. I bought my first house at about 26, halfsies with a friend, but we were above average income for our age being programmers back in the very early aughts. I don’t think my parents had their first home until they were in their thirties. There are certainly zoning issues in cities, there are legitimate issues with living wages, but the idea that you could step out of your parent’s house at less than 26 years of age and have the capital, credit history, etc., much less maturity, to own a house (and all that entails) seems like a mis-calibrated expectation. Kids need to allow for the idea that most people spend years amassing wealth in order to buy a home, and adults now were just as broke when they were young and starting out. It’s the difference between being level 1 and level 20. You don’t get the same cool stuff at lvl 1. If anything, I see far more economic opportunities (thank you, Internet) for young adults now than at any time in the past. There’s far more money in the United States than there is talent. Disposable income is crazy.
I never really thought of it that way, but I suppose you're probably right to some extent. Though I'd wager you could achieve similar technical/artistic results with a decent local college that has an arts program or an engineering school. I always thought it was a suprising success, because he's actually located quite a distance from Vancouver proper, in kind of a suburb called Langley. As a local, I've been there about once, but there have been locals that have made there way onto bigger productions like Silicon Valley. It would be too far for me to realistically work there even if I had a car, not that they're knocking at my door, but surely some of their staff have attended schools quite a distance from there.
Not sure why you're being downvoted, because it's absolutely true.

Residents of this neighbourhood regularly campaign against affordable housing, halfway houses, addiction recovery centres, et al; with Poe's Law levels of quotations in the local rag, with such gems like "I support affordable housing, but those people don't belong in this neighbourhood."

Moreover, the area is _mostly_ post-war colonial-style architecture. Post-WW1/WW2, to be clear. It's not exactly dripping with important cultural landmarks and structures.

Now, the local native band? They're still fighting to recover the remains of their grandparents and great grandparents which were buried under the local high school, along with half of a Chinese cemetery. I kid you not, it's like something out of a cheesy 80's B-movie.

"Heritage" _usually_ means one thing: keeping out the undesired people. "Heritage" is a weasel word for classism and racism.
Thanks for the response! I'm quite jealous. The lowest I've seen in the U.S. for symmetrical 1Gbps is ~$65, and that's rare. Even more rare is 10Gbps, and the cheapest I've seen is $250. The best I can get is 940/35, for $120/month :(

Check out Posthog, they do event tracking very well.
That’d be a great feature compared to the majority of platforms. The big question would be whether they force recommendations from other channels elsewhere on the page or at the end of a video.
Java arrays don't have add() at all - they're fixed-size once allocated.

ArrayList etc do have add(), and they implement it by re-allocating the backing array once capacity is exceeded.

In practice, you'd use the ArrayList anyway. I don't think it's worthwhile comparing Go and Java "language-only", because the standard library is as much a part of the language definition as the fundamental syntax; indeed, what goes where is largely arbitrary. E.g. maps in Go are fundamental, but the primary reason is that they couldn't be implemented as a library in Go with proper type safety, due to the lack of generics.
True, but does the barrel need to be a cylinder? That is, couldn’t the casing be a sphere with a hole cut out and a cylinder inserted? I suppose this could be much less pleasant to machine and to service.
At least it's healthy and linked with great health outcomes, so maybe it's a good thing :)
Wikipedia's description isn't very helpful sadly - they're like the real world data version of Microsoft or SAP, they have a ton of different products that are basically databases of data collected from a ton of different sources. Lawyers use LexisNexis to find research legal precedent and find the contact information of defendants to send cease and desists or where to serve them papers; universities and public schools use LexisNexis to search newspapers and other media; finance firms use it for various data feeds; and so on.
Oh I didn't realize they depended on the device they were running on, that's too bad :(

I can reliably beat the 1100 bot and lose to the 1400 bot so they at least seem to be in the ballpark of matching my rating on the site for my hardware though.

If anything, a bullet-riddled corpse should evoke sadness, not the desire to shoot more bullets into it or other things.

Maybe you meant that watching one character inflict violence on another triggers audience feelings of aggression or fear, depending on which character we empathize with. What we watch undoubtedly causes all manner of emotions: horniness, elation, shame, fear, revulsion, pride, etc.
I don't know if this is just what they picked for BBC America, but every single British TV comedy I've ever watched has a cast of 90% white haired elderly people sitting around and being sarcastic at each other. Last of the Summer Wine, Dad's Army, Are You Being Served, etc etc.

These were also the only thing my parents watched, so it was a relief when I got to watch normal people TV and saw someone in their 20s.
Thank you! Not sure if I can do that unless browsers go back to the old designs and make ipc possible among tabs/processes again, the compute happens on the browser so it entirely depends on the end user hardware config. And while making this I gave that approach a try as well but decided against it, since the (compute requirements of analysis) entirely depends on the size of input. On larger strings it takes considerably longer and has rendered the browser completely unresponsive on low end devices.
Also, this is far from complete and the pre trained model is fairly inaccurate. I am mainly looking for collaborators to train this better.
I think they're saying that the late-stage private investors are the ones who get the early access.
Not trying to insult but genuinely curious: how do you derive any kind of satisfaction (mental I guess) from this interaction? Don't you feel disgusted with yourself once it's over with? Why is just jacking off not a better option than this?

The innuendo is pretty strong and the characters are mostly terrible people and the plot pretty dark.

But also very witty, fast paced, and funny. Some really interesting shots, too, with moving and panning cameras, or things happening in both foreground and background.

The motivational quotes can be bs in a practical sense, but they are not bs in a literal sense: the sentences have meaning in and of themselves.

In this case, the rewording of the example you cited actually grants meaning to the sentence that it doesn't have but that we accidentally interpret it as having because the sentence is quite close to a meaningful sentence

People complained about privacy. Google addressed their complaint, changed their business practices, and took a small hit to revenue in the process. They estimate they'd lose 5%, or about $8B when this scheme is implemented.

The same people now complain that while Google addressed their complaint, and created privacy, they are still bad somehow just because *shaking hands furiously* can't you see that they are Google?

Fuck internet activists.
It seems to be somewhat limited to Americans though. So isn't the obvious explanation the religious, puritan heritage?

People and young people have having less sex

An observation I've shared before: Some former hippie who was older than me once told me "All the TV stations went off the air at 9pm. There was nothing to do after that if you were still awake other than sex and drugs."

Now we have the internet. You can go down the rabbit hole on YouTube videos, intellectual articles or whatever floats your boat, sexually or otherwise, any time of the day or night if you have an internet connection and even homeless people can manage to get online at least part of the time via the library, a cell phone, etc.

Maybe sex was something of a time filler and it's no longer needed as desperately because we have plenty of other things to do. We also attach less to sex/marriage. At one time, whether or not you married had a huge impact on access to money, medical benefits, etc and that's changing.

Similarly: We have an "autism epidemic" in a world that has gotten a lot noisier and busier than it used to be. We know the world has changed radically and yet we keep looking for ways to blame the individual for behaving differently rather than wondering about how those widespread environmental changes are impacting people and what role they play in widespread trends from vastly huge upticks in certain diagnoses to vastly less sex.
OneNote is not funcional. You can quite easily set it up so that your notes sync as PDFs to the cloud (Dropbox/Google Drrive/One Drive) via a3rd party syncing app. I use that and it works great. My notes sync to my desktop and I can add/remove papers from my desktop as well.
