I’d be interested to know what pattern other than the date would be suitable for "self links". So far I’ve seen them used on Twitter, most blogs (but title also works there), forums (e.g.: right here on HN) and all chat apps. Would an explicit "link to this" be better?
There's a play on this idea by the way, "Dostoevsky-Trip". https://www.srkn.ru/texts/dostoev1.shtml

Not sure if it's been translated. I did see it in a theater, and it was a lot of fun.
If you wore a mask in public in the UK before COVID, you would have got some very strange looks. They might have thought you were a criminal trying to hide your face. It seems fairly normal now though.
Could you configure a user setting for max file size? I have clicked very large files by accident plenty of times and it makes ST hang.
It’s not? I think it is. At least in Germany you order it
Honestly great work on the format! You can easily skim through and understand all your points by looking just at the graphics.
If we're talking about the size of the holes in a mask compared to a virus, then it would be more like wearing a "bulletproof" vest full of holes 10x bigger than a bullet.
Now begins the search for the killer app.
Unless you have a valve, and hardly breath at all, exhaling pushes the N95 away from your face enough to let some unfiltered air in. There’s a similar (though smaller) effect with the thin paper valves, but regardless of how good the fit is, you need a much better valve than that to actually filter all air through the fabric.
I would love to use ST on FreeBSD and Solaris natively, i know it's a niche and probably not worth the time, but still here i said it.

BTW: Thanks for a great Editor.
My normal tomatoes fruited at cherry tomato size for some reason :( I got a few maybe an inch and a half wide, but since then the rest stop and turn red earlier.

No idea what the problem is, maybe it's fungal. Quite a few leaves were turning yellow/black lower down.
From my own anecdotal perspective, I have a depression/anxiety diagnosis, and may have at times had suicidal thoughts, but I would have never really acted on them.

For me, life got easier and less stress free, mainly because I don't ever have to go outside and I got to work from home, which pretty much solved the "social anxiety" issue for me. I never felt comfortable at office and felt always stressed. So I've been happy and relieved about being locked in.

Whether it's good in the long term, I'm not sure however, because I will get even less experience putting myself out there.
Linux has other code for dealing with quirks in hardware, so why not RISC-V and KVM? Just implement the draft now and later add a way to use the draft code for hardware implementing the draft spec and final code for hardware implementing the final spec.
Do you have a bunch of these lists tucked away specifically for this purpose?
iOS Safari seems to render it with no performance issues. Interestingly, it can’t seem to decide whether the background is black or green—it’s different each time I load the gif.
This is just anecdata: but I’d say yes. I had a number of friends trying to get VC money for things which haven’t been done before: either you gotta be someone already in VC space, eg a successful founder or you have to pitch an idea that’s been validated already somewhere for example.

VCs are quite risk averse in my opinion, at least at the seed stage.

> I think Maxwell's Demon will only let hot particles pass through in one direction, but that's nothing new either; we have one-way mirrors.

We don't, actually. We have semi-transparent mirrors that allow a small fraction of the light through, and they appear "one-way" only when one side is vastly brighter than the other.
poor people also tend to be accustomed to harsh environments (bad neighbourhood, bad school etc) so mindful, maybe yes, but actually stressed to the level that you leave and miss out on smth you have the right to, I don't know...
Encouraging students to take coding classes is great, but maybe not at the expense of expanding horizons and knowledge of other cultures around the world. Learning a foreign language conveys many benefits beyond just the language itself.

Which is precisely how it would work with wormholes.

Wormholes can be turned into time machine in the following way. Remember that time travel to the future is pretty trivial: Just accelerate a lot and enjoy the effects of time dilation. So in order to travel into the past, you create a wormhole pair and put one of the wormholes on a speedy two-way trip. If you now traverse the wormhole that was on the trip (and which has traveled into the future), you travel backwards in time. But not further than when the pair was created.
I hope they have (or have plans to) updated the docs for their plugin API. I've made some bucks building plugins for ST3 and the docs are... scarce. It's a shame, because I prefer using Python for building plugins than JS or TS as in VSCode, but it was a PITA to find anything.
The fact that these SSDs have to “phone home” in order to do some of their tasks is what gives me the really big heebie-jeebies.

Thanks, but no thanks. That’s about as bad as eMailing password reminders because you stored them in plaintext or reversible encryption. There is just no way of fully and properly protecting your data, then.
Тhere is a story about a Jewish tailor whom it took 1 month to sew the pants. So the customers tells him Look it took god 7 days to build the world and you were making pants for a month... And the tailor answers Yes, but look at this world and now look at these pants...
Same here.
I'd imagine that would have to be possible, seeing as the junctions function as differentials. It might be as simple as adding negative feedback to the input of the transistor, though we'll probably need to wait for spintronics to be shipped to find out for sure.
UX = User Experience. It's a broad term that covers many disciplines.

UI Design is a subset of UX, as the UI is one (major) factor that shapes the user's experience of your product.

So saying 'this book is more UX' somehow implies UX and UI are separate - which they are not.

This book covers several UX disciplines, including some UI design tips.
For me, I use Goland and Pycharm as IDE, and VS Code as editor. I also used Sublime, but found that VS Code somehow surpassed it, and startup speed is also very fine (if you have strong computer :-)).
They didn't? Here's an article stating the suicide rate had exceeded a year average in a few months in a California hospital,

https://fee.org/articles/a-years-worth-of-suicide-attempts-i...

And on the east coast in GA, the same,

https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/lockdown-suicides-on-t...

These articles are during the low point stated in the OP article.
I think it goes further than individuality, though. There's a pervasive selfishness that seems to run through our (American) culture. Many who do believe that COVID is a threat to others (say, to older people, or to immuno-compromised people) but do not believe that they themselves are in much danger will decide not to wear a mask because they don't think it matters to them if they do or not.

This is the thing that makes me saddest. It just seems like people in the US are unwilling to endure even a minor inconvenience if it will help someone else but not do anything for themselves.
> when the rest of society slows down, suddenly those who couldn’t keep up don’t feel so behind.

Exactly, and I'd expect them to rise once things go back to "normal" because those who were already in a bad situation before Covid will rightfully feel left behind once more.
How to become a better learner as a developer
The article also isn't considering that a number of suicides would have been reported as Covid deaths
As an anecdotal data point, I have social anxiety, and depression diagnosed and I have been feeling relieved by the whole thing.

Going to office etc, left me with constant worries and thought cycles, energy spent on analysing and overthinking social situations. Now there's just video calls/chat messages I have to worry about and there's fewer attack vectors for worries there.

Same with random/events parties happening, even with friends I never felt very comfortable attending. Now I always had the perfect excuse to just stay at home.
Don't take my comment too seriously. It's a scene from a movie actually.
Simulation theory is pretty much akin to believing in god as opposed to science. It doesn't lead us to a better description of reality. Just passing off what we don't know one level up.
The core question is - is this better than VSCode AS AN EDITOR? In recent months, I had the feeling VSCode just surpassed it in almost every regard.
The CDC study concluded 2% reduction. That’s in the range where harms need to be weighed too (e.g. masks that aren’t replaced often enough harbor bacteria themselves; there’s environmental costs, etc)
Perhaps lower performance was worthwhile over having segfaults.
I am not full deep in SecOps these days and would gladly hear opinion of some expert:

Can disabling these mitigations bring any risks assuming the server is sending static content to the Internet over port 80/443 and it is practically stateless with read-only file system?
But that's only a derivative of SGML.
We can use potential barriers to separate hot and cold molecules, e.g.

> The only people this approach genuinely "pushes" away are a group that you cannot expect to act in good faith in the first place - the companies deliberately obstructing the right to repair.

This is true, fair enough. The incentives aren't aligned here for big corporations. My points about protesting were more generic and beyond R2R initiative. You make good points that being nice to large corporations isn't going to achieve anything. But, would getting angry do anything? I am not quite convinced because regular Joe is going to buy that shiny piece of unrepairable equipment. We're just so used to throw-away culture, problem is much deeper. Both - businesses as well as consumers are to blame. Unfortunately, the slice of consumers that care about R2R is vanishingly small.
Right. I think the article in the OP is based on questionable data
although spack had a lot of problems with tensorflow for years... But yes, in general it works best nowadays and with clingo coming up, I guess it will eventually beat NixOS (because hopefully browser-like dependency trees become fast then).

(and I still don't get the advantages of an advanced build system like bazel, where I first have to build the right version of the build system (including all patches which might crop up with new libcs in vendored dependencies), and then it takes ages to compile (compared to any other similar software...) and I still have to fix the libc bugs...)
"Optimized" in this sense meant that animated gifs can have a frame reference only three pixels of the original image. So an image of 300K with only small movement (think cinemagraphs) wouldn't be much larger.

This is a given for movie formats, but at the time the animated GIF came up it was revolutionary. I think the proper phrase should be "animated GIFs can be pretty optimized, taking into account how inefficient the algorithm is, when compared with other animation algorithms of the time".

I also think there's an interpretation that applies here: When you see an animated gif, even if it's a frame that changes three pixels and nothing else, internally the renderer may be expanding it into a full movie (that is, uncompressing each resulting "frame"). This usually makes GIFs (regardless of how large or small the GIF actually is) take much more memory than common sense would tell you.

Elon Musk says hello? I hear a lot more hate towards him than I do the Kardashians.

Anyone who's ever used a Windows PC had probably joked about murdering Bill Gates. Jeff Bezos receives a fair bit of flack too.

Where I live, Karl XIV Gustav is similarly divisive as the above figures, some hate him and everything he represents, others love him for... I'm not exactly sure why actually, Google it.

There are oooh so many more examples too.. I'm not saying we live in an equal society, but men get hated on too,I promise

Though nowadays GC is also “fixable”, and probably more performant than refcounting, at least for non-single-threaded code.
Or is it that people are taking the same amount of risks, but accidents that used to cause death are now "merely" causing head trauma?

To me suicide is an reaction to this thought: "things are bad for me, and they are never going to get better." If you think your life might get significantly better in the next couple of years, you probably aren't likely to commit suicide.

I'm sure many people experienced sudden and traumatizing depression with the onset of Covid. But we mostly all knew it would be temporary - we knew things would get better again, even if we didn't know the timelines. There wasn't a "forever" there, so suicide wasn't a common reaction.
Please offer a way to change the website language (a button in the top or so). Especially if you don't have professional translators. It looks like the "Kreatoren" of your website used auto-translation for the German version and it makes it look like a scam. (imo there is no good direct translation for creator in this context, the entire text would need to be recreated).
The censorship you refer to happend 30-40 years ago under Thatcher [1]. Sense prevailed and these were promptly overturned.

I'm not sure what mentioning such old events brings to the conversation, any more than a discussion of modern US censorship would benefit from discussing the Satanic Panic under Reagan.

Perhaps you would care to elaborate?

Nobody's ever cared about the stuff I made never happen by being good ahead of time. They've only ever really cared about the fixes to stuff that blew up. It helped that whatever blew up wasn't mine, I guess, but not that much.

Really, a lot of places just put up with your personal desires for excellence as long as you keep saving their bacon. Stop saving their bacon or throw the "balance" off from their point of view, and they won't appreciate you any more.

Sorry, but management tends to suck in this regard. If you find someplace that's different, hang onto it!
One thing I don't get is its claim of being referentially transparent. How can this possibly be the case in the presence of exec commands that call shell scripts (which could do anything, potentially nondeterministically)? Or does the type system take this into account somehow?
What amazes me the most about spices (and other exotic crops) and their history is that we were willing to commit genocide to get them. But then again, it's not too hard to see parallels with some of today's products.

Out of thick air: Transforming carbon dioxide into light-emitting carbon
That refrigerator would still use energy compressing the refrigerant. That's Work=F*x energy which won't go to zero with a massless frictionless motor.

Or do you mean you also have a generator to recover the energy from the temperature differences it creates? So it's not really doing refrigerating because you're using all the cooling power to run the motor?
To think of an analogy people could die when planet earth dies, or people could die if their tribe gets wiped out, as they can't any longer fence for the resources individually.
Or people will die if a bad actor will launch nuclear bombs for their own selfish gain, pollute the earth etc.

I imagine some cells like cancer cells also act selfishly while damaging the host and reaping temporary rewards themselves.

So it seems like analogy of people and few bad actors makes even more sense in terms of cells as opposed to ants who all act only towards the greater good.

Tldr; In order to succeed and survive you need many working together, however it is possible to get ahead temporarily acting selfishly, not caring about the greater good, but having too many of those bad actors will end bad for everyone. Which happens with both, people and cells.
Initially thought this had something to do with religion driving entrepreneurship, but (of course) it's about angel investing.

It depends on the minimum size of the what you will consider a hole. Check out the video from VSauce on YouTube about how many holes a human has.

True, which is why it's even more important to get people to meet outside.

If you forbid inside and outside meetups, people will meet in secret, even closing their Windows so the neighbors don't snitch (this is Germany after all, the nation of snitches, historically :D).

A little bit of basic human psychology could have prevented some of these waves.
Same here. The home iMac Core Duo from early 2008 was finally decommissioned last year, after 12 years (had an SSD change only). Up until that moment it had been the "go to" computer in the home and 24/7 running a Plex server, Sonarr and Transmission.

My 2012 MBA is used daily and heavily by my mother and graphic designer sister. My 2015 MBA replaced that iMac and now I'm trying to find an excuse to replace my current 2019 MBA because M1s are reaaally attractive. Essentially I've convinced myself Apple is anouncing laptops later in the year that look like the newest iMacs, just so I wait.

I'm surprised to see no one suggested board games, as it's really refreshing to escape from the screens at the end of the day.

We've become heavy players with the wife and the kids (7 and 8). Cooperative games are really nice to play with the kids who have a hard time losing (even a single token...); it helped them see things globally instead of only taking into account their own corner of the universe (e.g: I do not take all the money for myself so that the next player we'll be able to buy this very powerful card on her turn).

Stone age [0]: a competitive resource collection/management game with wood elements, it's very pleasing to play with. As with Catan, one uses dices, but there are ways to curb the randomness, making me feel a lot more in control, and not just a helpless passenger.

Harry Potter the Hogward Battle [1]: a cooperative gateway deck building game, my wife and kids cannot stop playing it, even for the 1.5 hours required for the last games. My wife usually hates long games, but the Harry Potter magic is strong with this one.

The Game [2]: a cooperative game where cards need to be triaged in the ascending/descending order, with the twist that you do not know the cards held by the others players. It's very relaxing at the end of the day, a last "team building" experience just before sleeping.

Keyforge [3]: a two player competitive card game with computer generated unique decks. It's a lot of fun since card effects vary a lot and you have to combine the cards. I also really love the fact that it's a racing game (you have to be the first to forge 3 keys), so it's more about slowing your opponent down rather than simply crushing him/her.
If you're interested in that game, you may have choice paralysis since they release new mechanics every year. I suggest trying with the first edition (Call of the Archons), it's the simpler and more rewarding one. If you're hooked, you'll have a lot to discover !

(edit: styling)
The definition logically implies that compilers are allowed to assume UB doesn't happen. The definition is:

> undefined behavior: behavior, upon use of a nonportable or erroneous program construct or of erroneous data, for which this International Standard imposes no requirements.

With these optimisations, either:

1. The program contains no UB, the transformed code acts as expected, and the compilation is valid.

2. There's UB; the standard imposes no requirements on what behaviour that translates to; and so the transformed code is valid, regardless of what it does.
I warmly recommend the book Systematic Trading by Robert Carver. [1]

The perils of trading bots are explained in it. The author himself runs one for a long time. [2]

In particular, the greatest risks are overtrading (so you get eaten up by fees), and overexposure (so you get eaten up by volatility).

I see. So you are expanding the scope from Epic complaining about fees to _everything_.

You make good arguments. Just to play devils advocate, PlayStation and XBox are also closed platforms and I think they take a cut. Amazon Fire devices take a cut by making you buy their virtual currency. I don’t know if Apple is doing anything different.

And the real issue in my mind is Microsoft had a real monopoly. Epic is free to put their games on millions and millions of other devices. They aren’t locked out of “the market” as a whole
I had the same experience. A VC explicitly told me that he doesn’t fund any startup that is trying to create a new market, because he doesn’t know if that market actually exist and if it does he doesn’t know if it is profitable. Instead funding a startup that plays in an already existing market, as long as the startup does thing “better or in a unique way” is a much safer play.
Great book! Thanks for making it available for free.
