Contemplation for me is a sign of something is missing or not totally dialed in in my life.

Or it can be that i need to process something emotionally.

I believe it is healthy to spent time on. It's your therapy some how.

Reminds me of the student loan forgiveness nonsense in the US now days. We’re supposed to forgive one generation’s debt, but not another’s.
I feel like this same criticism should apply for the Model S Plaid then too since it accelerates faster than almost every car and is heavier than most cars as well.

I’m not sure how much the weight really matters if you’re colliding with a cyclist or pedestrian anyway though.

Valid point about the height, but it’s no different than any other modern truck on the road today (all of which are too high if you ask me).
Same reason motorcycles nod to each other (in the UK) or give the hand signal in the US.

For the UK if you are mad enough to ride on two wheels in our weather you are in the club.

Gogs (and Github, Gitlab, etc) are different than Sourceforge though, SF's project pages are targeted towards users of the software, whereas Github/Gogs/etc are targeted towards developers. Now obviously when you have developers make that choice you get them show a preference towards developer-targeted services, but at the end of the day they are not the same.

Notice how in a typical Sourceforge page you get the name of the project right at the front with big letters, right below it a rating by its users, how popular it is and when it was last updated (though that date is misleading because it tracks all the project data and not releases) as the most important bits, with a big fat green DOWNLOAD button next to those and buttons to be notified for updates and sharing the software with others? Then the information panel below these describe the software, what features it has, etc followed by screenshots, category information, license, etc and then comments/reviews by users. This panel is just one tab with others being the files for users to download, reviews, support, forums, etc. The code, where you can see the repository, is at the last tab.

This is a design very strongly targeted towards users, unlike Github/etc that right in the front page of a project show the repository and rely on Readmes to show any information.

Some projects even use Github (or Gitlab or whatever similar tool/service) for the repository while keeping other functionality, like downloads, mailing lists (that AFAIK no other similar service offers, btw) in Sourceforge.

That is not to say that Sourceforge's UI doesn't need a bit of a cleanup, but replacing it with something like Gogs (or anything Github-like) isn't going to work since Sourceforge's UI has a different target and goal.
Trucks are more dangerous to pedestrians because of the higher and flatter front--means people end up underneath rather than above if they are struck. I understand why they kept the look the same and why they used that space but in the future would prefer that they made changes to make it safer for everyone and not just the occupants. The high hoods make for poor visibility around the front.
For all of Starbuck’s insistence that their franchises maintain a standard of service, I first encountered Starbucks in Seattle and didn’t completely understand the “charbucks” epithet until I bought a mocha in the terminal at DFW during a layover. How you burn coffee bad enough that you can taste it over chocolate I’ll never know.
so... she told Andrew that he now is the owner of freenode, whilst simultaneously telling the staff that he wasn't?

whilst Andrew paid her (seemingly in exchange for ownership)

not a bad deal for her... if that's a correct assessment then it certainly looks like that could be considered to be fraud
I'd be intrigued to see a benchmark against chruby/ruby-install. Doing the shell config isn't where I'd assume the slow bit is.
I've started contemplating less and less and started almost immediately asking for feedback, even on tiny nuggets of an idea. If my knowledge is limited to the point where I have to wonder about something, there is likely someone out there who already knows the answer :)
Finding them is the hard part, but people love connecting information-havers with information-seekers!
It can still refer to hierarchies via selectors. Honestly I think that's a fantastic way to handle it.
> I took an offer at 40K or so, and within 3 years I was at 100k.

These are not the same jobs. You took a junior position and in 3 years were promoted once, or maybe twice, into more senior position(s).
im just bummed they went with the modern body style and did not revive the early 2000s Lightning body style that had a more street racer vibe. That car was sweet
I'll buy one.. it's a little more expensive than I'd like but I'm tired of gasoline and the fumes.
I'm not sure what you are arguing at this point? Do you acknowledge that the modern conservative movement has embraced conspiratorial thinking and lies in a way that the liberal movement in the US hasn't? If so your pivot to saying that I need to hold my representatives feet to the fire is very odd, since the reason my congressional representatives can't pass legislation is due to Republican obstructionism, not because of AOC's twitter account.
I don't trust Lee, but I'm staying on Freenode too. I have an acccount on Libera. Decentralization is great.
I really wish the go to for everything hoi polloi wasn't Twitter. Twitter encourages trite, mean, and outrageous content, it's not going to have much of a variety of views that get any attention.

It infects anything.

I was listening to a podcast about my local sports team and they couldn't help but reference what they're 'not saying' relative to Twitter outrage ... repeatedly. And even address 'fan sentiment' purely through the looking glass of Twitter.

They talk about players who 'fans don't like' and yet you go to the game and you'd think that was the most popular player based on fan reaction...

Then I switch to my coding related podcast ... same thing, they address Twitter drama like it represents most coders.
I'm also not great at following this whole thing. When did you acquire Freenode or how?
Yes, what of it?
Because an example was given to illustrate a point and you are picking on it in a direction that has nothing to do with the discussion and the example. You took the spirit out of the example and made an analysis of the letters, colors and font - borderline trolling.
Check the messages about the DNS in the pdf. Thanks Thomas for caring! You seldom seem to miss replying to my comments, and I appreciate it.
Or, maybe, keep your paranoia in check?
I've always wondered what to make of that quip because for the space of about 10 years, between 1980-1990 give or take, the fax machine was critical infrastructure for basically any business with a telephone line. faxes were a major deal and are still very much essential in certain fields
I see what you mean. If I could refine what I said, I'd put it that for those flagship mega corps, you generally know that it will _at least_ be competitive, and it's just a matter of how far beyond it.
Who said anything about 5 times a year?

And most people on this site are driving ICE cars and SUVs which are much less efficient than an F-150 EV and are themselves very oversized.
France's money machine go Brrrrrrrr.

€56bn in interest payments a year alone and 106% debt to gdp. Massive exposure to Italian debt crisis. It's not going to end well
Huh, that's...unexpected. My best guess was that somehow the root certificate was missing from your computer's trusted certificate store.

Glad you got it sorted, happy to help.
It's the smoothest car rental experience I've ever had. I checked the nearby Home Depots and one had a truck. I was in and out with the keys in 10 minutes. Drove to pick up a couch, delivered it, and brought the truck back. Parked it in the parking lot and walked in with the keys. It was about $30 and painless.

What do you think is so bad about the process?
Yes, let’s do that: I, and the projects I’m involved in, have moved to Libera.

I watched the drama unfold and consider myself informed enough to develop my own opinion, which coincides with that of the staff.

It’s been a completely smooth transition and don’t see how Freenode will recover without these amazing people.

As for the “ridiculous statement” and the need to feel ashamed, I leave that to future me to decide. Not you.
how...how do they manage that in the delivery room? They just throw away the bedding you're on after the delivery?
How much of this is due to the nature of software being changed so often? We do this very thing with hardware recalls on our vehicles, but my hunch is we tolerate it because it happens so rarely and people more easily and intuitively understand how hardware can cause a bad day.

I'd be curious on the HN perspective. Are we less willing to accept this from software because it's taken as a given that when "it's just software" changes are easy? Does it imply that the software process (particularly requirements and testing) are not as robust as with hardware processes, leading to more frequent updates? Does it imply we are overly reliant on software to mitigate hardware issues because "it's easier"? (I'm thinking, in part, of the 737-Max issue for the last one).
This might be the most significant EV after the Tesla Roadster, which is the EV that made them cool and started tipping the market.

Once your average truck driving country boy sees what "instant full torque" means, ICEs will start to get a reputation for being wimpy.
I certainly agree with you there. As the other person mentions though, it didn't appear any time recently and it's not going to go away any time soon. Most people don't think about things logically or critically. See also: ads work.
Buying a Chevy truck makes sense if you are upgrading from a 90s Chevy truck because they lasted a long time and were easy to maintain and cheap to repair. Mine is still going strong at 322K miles. Of course it isn't until after someone upgrades and puts a few years on a new truck do they realize they aren't as cheap and easy to maintain as the 90s version.
> The complex plane is a crutch that gives you pretty pictures.

That’s a very poor outlook on an incredibly useful mathematical tool. Maths is done essentially by finding new ways of viewing an old thing, and restricting the set of tools available seems like a poor idea in general. As for teaching mathematics, finding more ways of looking at something, however imprecise, is a huge aid to understanding. Never be afraid to show someone a picture that’s only 80% true but could potentially aid their understanding in how something works!

I also disagree that the “circular paths” visualisation is misleading - what is misleading about it? This is a completely accurate representation of how a Fourier series is added up to get a real part which varies over time. It even makes it intuitive that multiplying the series by a fixed complex number (corresponding to rotating and scaling the “orbiting” points on the left) will have the effect of translating the resulting signal to the right or the left.

Also for what it’s worth, the product of complex numbers is easy to visualise? Add their angles, multiply their magnitudes.
This is a strong signal that this law must be expanded to the other states.
Or just rent a pickup when you need it for $50 a day? Fancy-boy pickups easily cost upwards of $50k.
(1) Monopolies or are not usually illegal.

(2) Abusing monopoly power is Illegal.

Apple could probably get away with having App Store and preventing other stores.

It's much harder to justify the pricing. Apple earned $30 million from League of Legends alone. It seems to be abuse of monopoly power. Courts are likely to compare the cost of running the App Store to the profits it generates. If the profit margin seems excessive, Apple is in trouble.

No-one mentioned the "sky fall[ing] down", the OP specifically said "it sounds awkward" which is a very light criticism.
You can rent from U-haul and use it as an actual work truck no problem.

I damaged a U-haul once and it was fine, it was all covered.

We rented a U-haul this year and hauled about 2000lbs of stuff to the dump with it in one trip.
Yes!

You could also do: ⌽'*',⊂⊃K to save another character. I don't know if that's "better" though.
I always chuckle at birdsong, and how pretty it is. Most of it evolved to be some form of "GO AWAY" or "COME HAVE SEX PLEASE" that was loud and distinct enough to be heard over great distances and over the other noises in nature.

So, listening to sweet birdsong first thing in the morning is like going to a rowdy bar on a Saturday night and listening to the singles yell at each other over the music.

It genuinely never fails to make me chuckle when I'm on the porch listening to birds in the morning.
And 500% higher risk of death. You might call that bloat but to me that is like saying a good quality motorcycle helmet is just a bloated hoodie or cap.
The Mach-E is a great vehicle. The only thing that may hold it back is high price tag, but tax credits will help.
> The new F-150 will be bigger and heavier than the absurdly huge early-00s Hummers.

And a Tesla Model 3 long range is heavier than a 2020 F-150.
Our house literally doesn't have any. It was built new (manufactured home) in 2016, and I'm not even sure if it was an option in the build - I'd have to look over the list of options again.
"If you make me do this I'll lose half the staff"

That sounds like a specific change was requested which was controversial.
Would you still say the same if we hypothetically replace France with US, China, UK, Russia, etc?
absolutely this, asdf saw the true problem with version management and provided an elegant solution.
Paris has more tourists than college towns have students.

I’m not sure what Paris would look like with a negligible tourist population, but it would be quite different. Who maintains the historical buildings? Le Mėtro? Straight tax dollars alone won’t cover it without the tourist subsidies.
It probably depends on how much and what you need to tow.
>Get a powerful router that runs CAKE

It doesn't even need to be powerful if you're on a normal copper line for home use. I'm saying that running a 20€ Xioami router and having machines torrenting, an Android box watching stuff, phones watching YT etc. without hiccups.
What's the "two glass ball challenge"? A quick search didn't turn up anything.
If you mean just 'thinking on things', pretty much all the time. I realized when I was younger I never felt 'bored' like everyone else seems to. I'm perfectly content to just sit and stare at the sky thinking of god knows what. Even my wife sometimes comes in and asks what I'm doing when I'm seemingly just sitting on the couch staring at the wall at times. The downsides are that I have trouble sleeping unassisted, as I'll just lay in bed thinking til the sun comes up, and also have trouble staying focused on movies or even conversation, as my mind will be elsewhere.

If you mean work/product/big picture specific... probably a few hours a week.
That's a harder question. Why do other people do the things they do? One reason might be because it was convenient for them to write (and debug) things that way.

But it is possible they are doing it for performance reasons, so maybe it's worth considering why it should be faster? That is to say, should the programmer assume the latter is faster than the former?

To do that, I would suggest putting yourself in the shoes of the implementor: You have a choice of how it should be implemented. Knowing this decision will affect every use of @[x;i;f], should it begin with an if statement like this?

if(y->n == 0)return x;

But before you answer, remember the next thing @[x;i;f] needs to do, is consider if x has any additional references, because if it does, it has make a copy of x. That means there already needs to be an if statement that looks like this:

if(x->r > 0) x = copy(x);

So one way to think about this, is to ask if you are implementing @[x;i;f], should you choose one branch or two?

$[#i:& XXX ; @[x;i;:[; YYY]]; x]

Also: Do you see the part that goes :[;YYY]? That's constructing an object. Do you think it is worth avoiding that allocation if possible?
You keep saying this, and people keep telling you they have read the PDF. Perhaps it's helpful for you to hear this stated plainly: the PDF is inscrutable, and does not say clearly what you seem to believe it does.

The announcement you link to here is itself clear as mud and has been quoted by your opponents. It says Freenode and PIA are "joining forces", "in the same family", but "continue to operate as a not-for-profit entity with the same management". That could mean anything. In particular, the first sentence after the subhed "what's next" reads "There will be few noticeable changes in terms of day-to-day operations, the freenode project will continue to operate with much the same structure and volunteer base as it does now."
Well used? There were plenty of tricks and companies doing shady things with the money.
When it was used within the rules, youngsters were using it to go to the movies or buy music online.

I know of some tricks from friends of friends and you can find a few newspapers articles about the bonus being used to buy playstations and other electronics or converted in cash (500€ bonus -> 300€ cash).

If there is a rule, it will be circumvented. Italy and France should think about stopping taxing young people so much, instead of wasting public money in this way.
> It fosters a more competitive work environment, by allowing capable workers to choose the best firms.

I dunno about that. Most people don't really care if their benefits are any good. And I've never seen a single job listing that went more in depth than "great benefits".

> Finally, anything more than essential coverage could and should still be privatized, and paid for by individuals. Much like today’s life insurance today. e.g., long cancer recovery and care.

Yeah, that's true in most if not all countries with universal healthcare. Of course, as someone else alluded to, it's a difficult distinction to make. I don't care about the mole on my face but a mole might legitimately effect someone else's mental health.
he didn't act improperly, you did by implying that he is a neutral party

I'd still take the traditional solution (https://godbolt.org/z/K5hWqezMP) over the latter one (https://godbolt.org/z/jaWMM491M). The latter solution requires a traditional check at the tail end of it, so the compiler appears to include the traditional implementation in the latter's solution anyways.

Unless this is a significant bottleneck for your application, the latter does not seem practical, and a lot of profiling would have to go into justifying the latter code (which would only be worthwhile if, as I said, this were a significant bottleneck.)
Same, I pack two bikes inside our regular Prius all of the time. I moved across country with it packed full, and regularly do furniture moves, skis, climbing gear with 4x people, etc.
An SUV is just a truck without the convenience of a truck bed. Never understood why anyone would get an SUV over a truck unless they need seating for 6+ people.
I own multiple station wagons fully agree with you. But what you're missing is that it's not about the ability to do things, it's about the image projected when doing them.

Over-specing vehicles is one of the ways the well to do advertise their well-to-do-ness. It's like a marble countertop but for the roads.

Sure you can put three kids in the back row of a Sentra, it has three seatbelts there after all. Sure you can haul plywood on anything with a roof-rack, that's what it's there for. Sure you can shove a washer in a Prius. All those things work great. Bust for most of HN to do them regularly would be "behavior below one's pay-grade" so to speak.
That only works if you've got good roads that get snow-plowed regularly in winter.

F.ex. where I live a Hilux or a Landcruiser is a must.
Not the same budget.
I haven't had Comcast in a couple years but they did advertise upload speeds at one time and for the majority of the time (over 15 years) that I had them the speed was at or better than advertised.

The last speed teir I had with them was 150/75 in 2019.
Revealing the magic of AST by writing Babel plugins
IMO it's a mistake to judge how a product is used in real life based on how it's marketed. There's a pretty big gap, especially for car commercials.
The link you provided in #3 finally showed me the unique value of your product. The web site left me confused on how this product was different than just recording videos.

I think you need more examples of real-world journeys on the site, not just videos of people telling me how they find it useful.

Still traceable though. I had a friend who did that and his name was still got attached to his physical address.
Definitely. In the US there are countless better alternative fast food options to McDonald's, so it's a lower class / lower middle class targeted chain. In the US McDonald's competes on price to stay in that budget range rather than trying to move upstream on price. McDonald's is to fast food in the US what dollar stores are to retail.

In foreign countries the financial targeting is different and there are always fewer McDonald's per capita. There are twice as many McDonald's per capita in the US vs France for example (and France has a lot of them at nearly 1,500); Britain has a similar ratio as France.
I can't wait to be run over by an electric truck instead of a gas one. So green!
I leave 2Mbit for other uploads, so it's 20/10, but, yes. During times when we care about latency and upload packet loss with a "realtime" set of requirements (there's no mechanism to retransmit lost packets for livestreaming with what we're using, so lost packets are just lost and glitch), the connection is heavily restricted.

However, if you're trying to reduce buffer bloat and random latency, the general concept of restricting to what your connection can actually tolerate works quite well. I've done it plenty on various connections over the years.
Exactly. And to emphasize your point, a company (or car sale) who is being coy with the price/salary is a huge red flag. They know it's not good and are trying to lure you far enough down the path that you won't turn around.
Well then I have to disagree. A motorcycle helmet is not bloat compared to wearing a sock on your head. Sure an old car might be more fun but safety isn't bloat. AC units are.
Should be fine with a roof rack (or without if you don't care about the paint)

When I buy sheet steel I use a station wagon because it's easier to plop it down on a roof rack and get it off later then it is to stick it in a truck or van.
That's not a silly question at all! There is an entire field of study around usability and human factors, better UI designers integrate at least some of this stuff into practice.

Sometimes it's required because you are in a regulated market: if you are designing a nuclear power plant or a radiotherapy machine or whatever, you are probably required to do some work to show your user interfaces are confusing in a way that can cause dangerous results.

Some of this stuff is expensive, you are right; on the other hand it follows a similar ramp up to other development work - namely that the later you discover something the more expensive it is to change.
