Conversely, or maybe tangentially (?), increased labor cost is how Amazon wins in the long run. It's the same logic they use for undercutting prices of consumer electronics, but in reverse.

Today you can get an $x/hour at Amazon or Target, but if Amazon does it right and keeps driving costs down and prices up, coupled with continuous explosion in online shopping, in 10 years Target loses its edge and you can only get a job at Amazon.

It's not to say that short term gains aren't worth it for employees, but long term, those gains might already be baked into Amazon's logic.

Today, they employ 1M people, but in 10 years, when there's no longer a Target or a Wallmart, they overnight add 10M robots and there's no one to say no at that point.

They are notorious for playing very long games, and they don't seem to do anything that doesn't eventually benefit them.

Being in tech I find the tactics very interesting, but it's getting progressively harder to tell if the world is becoming net positive as a result.
You should be able to write thunks in the same file as `createSlice`, usually in front of the `createSlice` call, and then use the `extraReducers` "builder callback" syntax inside the slice to handle the various actions dispatched by the thunk. See the example here:

- https://redux-toolkit.js.org/usage/usage-with-typescript#typ...

And yeah, `createSelector` _is_ the Reselect API, just re-exported.

You might want to also take a look at our upcoming "RTK Query" API that will be in Redux Toolkit 1.6, which should be out in the next couple days. It's a data fetching and caching layer built specifically for Redux usage. The preview docs are here:

From my experience I found the ideas of move semantics from modern C++ directly relatable to ownership and move vs borrow. I also found the FP ideas from Scala, pattern matching, combinators, result and option monads directly useful in rust.
I don't really like trusted computing, but it is part of the mobile security model. There's a distinction between Signal deliberately facilitating extraction of the keys, and having to break a device's security to do so.
A) This level of vitriol directed at internet strangers is not super healthy. I hope you find something that helps you chill out a bit.

B) I didn't say they did, but not every product needs to be concerned with the rest of the world. Websites in English targeted at a US market and charging US Dollars for their products probably don't care much about the average mobile processor speed in India (anecdotal source: me).

I would guess that most SaaS businesses are primarily accessed on desktop computers during the work week, but I bet they're now collectively spending millions-if-not-billions of dollars in dev time to make their landing pages load faster on Indian mobile phones for users who are unlikely to ever visit or become customers.

(I pick on India because my site gets a lot of Indian traffic, but feel free to swap in the developing nation of your choice.)

I agree, but I think the point (beside being entertainment for degenerates) is to show the extent to which such things are open to abuse. Insider trading on their own accounts is just a small example.

In any case, the rally Purdue missed on wasn't related to information that he had special access to. The crash was. Beyond that, you can't attribute any given trade to any specific reasoning without an admission.

You don't have to know everything, for insider trading to work. For the most part, it's about frontrunning news/reports/announcements with fairly predictable day 1 impacts.
No. Absolutely not. Those are examples. Go read it again. Or go learn english properly as it seems to not be your first language.

Look nico, where do you live? [redacted]? I happen to live there to. Why don't we chat over the phone. Did I get your phone number right? [redacted].

Or how about we continue to chat where you live. I'll drop you a visit and we can hash out our arguments there. [redacted] is the city you live in? I can get there. I'll drop you a visit and we can continue talking :). Don't worry it's not like I'm going to kill you or anything.

You heard of <'t Oud Fortem>? We can grab a drink there or I can just show up where you live. Your move Nico.

Yes, because that is what she thought was happening. "I'm going to do something you don't like" sure does sound like a threat to me.

She also said "a man with a bike helmet"...do you think she is especially afraid of bikers? Isn't the most reasonable reading that she is describing the man, and not scheming that she can get the cops to come out and kill this stranger who is annoying her?

I prefer hnrankings.info, which has been around for many years: http://hnrankings.info/27395635/.

Edit: oof, that link does look awful doesn't it. Most "how to get on HN's front page" content is terrible, it doesn't work and induces people to post dross and pull tricks that just degrade the site. I've got a set of notes about how to write for HN that I want to publish someday. If anyone wants a copy they can email hn@ycombinator.com.

I can't comment on this particular slick content marketing course because apparently you have to buy it to find out what it says, but previous ones I've seen have been entirely unreliable, and the look and feel of the ad certainly seems antithetical to the spirit here.
Thanks, that makes sense to me.

It's hard to find people who are knowledgeable enough about both static and dynamic systems and able to explain in layman's terms. Is there somewhere (online?) I can go to talk with people like you?
The meme of “scientists spreading doom and gloom” just doesn’t appear to be rooted in reality, though.

A much more obvious explanation is that what they’re revealing and proposing is unbelievably dark and holistically bad that people can’t wrap their heads around the complexity of it all, and if they can’t, they choose to ignore it.

Our reactions to our own mortality explain a lot here.
My site's not huge and mobile ads were only ~$150/mo. I might revisit it later, but for now I'm willing to take the path of least resistance.
> I'd offer one exception though: mutability xor aliasability on a per-object basis is something I wouldn't take to my C++ code.

Rust has "interior" mutability for when you need mutable access to shared data. It works very similar to the "mutable" keyword in C++ except that it's always type-driven, as opposed to something being specified as part of a declaration.
Correct. Most companies won’t interpret and just mandate the guidance recommendations.
>> After reaching satisfactory terms in the agreement, I need to run the agreement by my business partner and ensure he approves

Do you think Mitch McConnell sees US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen as his business partner? Or vice versa? That's your perception?

>> The G7 has reached a deal—that doesn't mean the deal is now effective or legally binding

So if I'm negotiating with you and you tell me we have a deal, I should consider that to be something that may or may not happen, may or may not be effective, and may or may not be legally binding?

Which car company do you work for?
That looks to be an entirely different issue: you're reporting an error that says the client is unable to decrypt a message, not that the key wasn't rotated upon reinstallation or device transfer. Ctrl+f "safe"(ty number) does not even appear on the page.
Funny, it looks like the practical work we had to do in our CS master class "advanced digital systems design", something like 20 years ago, on a nowadays archaic XC4013 FPGA... (including the VGA part).
GPU L0 cache latency IIUC is ~20x higher than CPU. In fact in this case I think GPU would have to use L2 cache since the data is shared across so many cores, so now you're talking ~50x. So even if you get full parallelism of cell computation you can plug in the numbers and find it would be far slower than FPGA (but still faster than CPU).

I'm not an expert though. Maybe GPUs have some way of mitigating the high cache latencies.

Some bird species tend to take-off and fly about when disturbed. This may causes an energy defecit that could have an effect. Birds may have evolved to roost for a particular portion of the day and be put under stress if they can't. There is not necessarily good science on this but wading or coastal birds are probably best avoided.

> … have just had the battery replaced instead of buying a whole new phone?

iPhones still slow down when the battery is old. The only difference is in the documentation and UI, which was easily fixed. There is no conspiracy here.

> It's not detecting counterfeit parts. As I said, you can swap the screen from two brand new iPhones and it will warn you about these parts being non-geniune.

I personally bought a genuine battery and replaced it in my iPhone 3GS. The replacement was worse than the one I took out because it had been sitting on a shelf for years.

Similarly, ‘genuine’ parts can be ones that didn’t pass QC, etc.

> This is to scare users to use Apple or Apple affiliates for repairs.

Why would it scare someone who trusts the repair shop?

My car warns me about all kinds of things, but I trust my mechanic who I have used for more than a decade to tell me what matters.

If you don’t trust your repair shop then the message is a useful warning and you would be better off going to Apple.
Is this constructive? I asked for help, and all you do is write off-topic posts criticizing. Thanks. But no thanks. Perhaps, --- just perhaps --- you should reconsider you effing assumptions.
Yes.

I work at the Hawk Conservation Trust in the UK. We have a few White-headed vultures and this year two of them have successfully raised a chick (currently two months old and about to start flapping its little wings). A visitor asked me if it would be returned to the wild. I said 'no - it is part of the insurance policy for this species' and the conversation moved on.

What I didn't say was that returning it to the wild would be like throwing it into a shredder. These African birds are superbly good at spotting carrion. When poachers kill elephants and rhinos, the vultures start circling and unwittingly act as a signal to the wildlife rangers that poachers might be in the vicinity. So, after they have chain-sawed the horns / tusks off, the poachers poison the carcasses to kill the vultures so they won't give the game away at the next kill. The record is 500 vultures of various species killed as a result of one poaching event. The wild populations will not survive this relentless slaughter.

So, I'm afraid I have very little sympathy for people who are worried about their drone-flying rights. Sorry.
And I haven't used it, but there is Torch for R as the alternative which isn't supposed to have any dependency on Python.

You have two indices, one for each list, updated separately. Iterate through a lost until it’s next element is larger than the current element in the other list. Iterate through it until the same condition. Keep going until your present position is at the halfway point, the you’ve got your median.

They don’t mean parallel like two thread, though you could use two coroutines or a similar mechanism.
Some evidence of the drone would be a nice addition. Or the construction of the nearby multimillion dollar homes they mention. I'm curious how they narrowed it down to two drone flights.

> Google USA made a gross profit of X G$ and should be taxed accordingly. If they want to claim some of that as a tax-deductable business expense, the burden of proof[0] is on them to demonstrate that it's a legitimate business expense.

They've done this, repeatedly. The laws as written (US, UK, many other countries) make this a completely legitimate business expense.

So, what should the law require? How would you create a law that prevents this from being a legitimate business expense but doesn't eliminate other things that would be broadly agreed as being OK?
> “A lot of functional diversity studies have a ‘humans are bad for the environment’ approach,” Armstrong told Science. “This shows humans have the ability to not just allow biodiversity to flourish, but to be a part of it.”

Absolutely! We can have a significant positive effect on our environment if we make the right choices. Ancient civilizations show us how we can have abundant food production while actually making our environment more diverse and more resilient.
It depends on what you're trying to read. If you want to understand every technical detail (e.g. who owns this variable) then Rust is great. If you want to understand the business logic behind it (e.g. under what circumstances is a customer allowed to return that product) then Rust is not so great as you would have to mentally filter out all the technical noise.
> in the US, finance ministers don't have the power to agree to treaties

The U.S. Secretary of the Treasury speaks for the President; it's a fundamental dynamic of organizations. Otherwise, effectively Yellen wouldn't be Treasury Secretary - Yellen would be powerless and meaningless - and would resign or be fired. Only Trump seemed to ignore this and undermine the people under him. Also, I expect that the Treasury Secretary has great legal authority to make binding decisions for the U.S. government; remember that the American people decided the cabinet members would be separately confirmed by Congress (i.e., the Senate), per the Constitution.

Similarly, if the CFO of Apple makes an agreement, the counter-party assumes they speak for CEO Tim Cook. Otherwise, why talk to this person?

> Treaties in the US require a super-majority (two thirds) vote in the Senate.

Most international agreements are not treaties. The people of the U.S. delegate the power to conduct foreign affairs almost exclusively to the President, again in the Constitution. Only certain actions, such as treaties, require Congressional approval.

>> [GP] “Right to repair” thinking applies well to things like tractors

That makes no sense. Of course they would lobby against being subjected to legislation that is ill suited to their industry.
I don't believe there's such a thing as "no design" design. It makes very little sense to me. There can be design with very simple and efficient flow but each individual interaction can (and probably should) be engineered.

E. g. where exactly to display the text, what should be the copy, how does the text input behave, where is it positioned and how does it all handle potential error, loading or any other state. To define all of these things and more is to design. Simple-looking visuals don't necessarily mean a lack of design.

The Impressionist Art of Seeing and Being Seen
I don't know where you live but in the northeast usa this is bullshit. In rural new england wildlife is much more prominent than it was 60 years ago. Deer used to be relatively rare. Beaver were extremely rare as were Turkeys. Forests were less dense and had smaller trees. Black bear were rare. Coyotes were extremely rare. Mt. Lions were unheard of. While we are no where near 1500 AD at most only a few promient species have been lost from the area: chesnut trees, wolves, passenger pigeons, etc. Most of the original northern atlantic forest biome is still intact. Rural new england is teeming with wildlife compared to how it was 100 or even 200 years ago when almost all forests in southern new england were cleared for fuel or agriculture. They came back. You got to get outside your bubble. The world is still full of nature. In many locations the population in rural southern new england towns was half what it was in 1820 in 1920. Nature came back when people moved west or to cities for better land and jobs. Humans are part of nature too. We are a natural phenomenon. I care about biodiversity but I get sick of seeing these uninformed opinions that some how the sky is falling everywhere. Maybe it is some places but not everywhere even in the USA even within a few hundred miles of the largest cities.
The Elan School Cult
I'm curious: what kind of problems?
Agreed! While it's not considered "idiomatic" Rust (from all my conversations on the Rust discords), I think that interior mutability is a totally fine thing to reach for in certain cases, at the upper levels of one's architecture.

But then, once your code has RefCell<> everywhere, you're incurring runtime overhead, at which point one might as well switch to a language that makes those tradeoffs easier to wield.

This'll get even better in the near future; a lot of languages are improving in this regard (Cone, Lobster, etc).
Ah that's very interesting re. brett surviving very deep into the wood.

You mean lots of breweries outside of Belgium do a turbid mash and use aged hops too? I'd not realised that. I started reading 'American Sour Beers: Innovative Techniques for Mixed Fermentations' but need to get round to finishing that to understand more about how sour beer is made elsewhere too.
His point is obviously that that is not an appropriate place to walk a dog at all.
That’s his point.
Being in the office is a giant distraction. When I'm in front of my computer at home during work hours I simply work, no distractions. When I'm in the office and I try to work I spend time trying to block out distractions so I can work.
I am with you, we should tax on things that are undodgeable and stop this wasted energy on corporate taxes.

* Property tax is 1 obvious place, you want the land in this country? You pay the tax for it.

* VAT is another obvious one. You want to sell in this country? You pay the tax.

There are plenty of things that can be taxed which are undodgeable, we just have to be creative.
You are making the accusations. In the court of law, it's up to you to prove it and you obviously can't.

You're constantly making accusations without any proof.
I don’t know if I would go that far. Do you have evidence of this?
One could argue Iron Butterfly helped launch metal by bridging from psychedelic rock to their then new heavyness. I think most people might recognize In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida and assume they're a hippie, one-hit wonder.

The Guess Who and Frank Zappa were damn important too.

Btw, one of the most important locations for counterculture rock influence was the Hollywood Landmark Motor Hotel (today: The Highland Gardens Hotel). Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix, Pink Floyd, Janis Joplin (who lived and died there), and Alice Cooper were all there... oh and Shep Gordon.
Well clearly we can't remove analytics, and if we changed analytics to a different (faster) provider someone would have a cow... We could lower our image sizes, but let's be honest that would result in the dreaded JPGing. Our Javascript is a hand crafted wonder that we just rebuilt for the 6th time in the past decade in a new modern better framework so clearly that cannot be the problem. Therefore I'm leaning towards adding a CDN to lower the first byte time, or yelling at our DNS provider to speed up their side. /s
> You're referring to the process of finalizing a treaty. That would be conceptually similar to "executing" an agreement between parties

It's not even that. Most international agreements are executed without a treaty.
These seven countries have a lot of sway, but even if it's only these countries that implement it it will likely affect a number of corporations. There are benefits to being legally located in stable modern economies, so this at the very least minimizes shopping around for the lowest tax rate among them.
Sorry! I meant it in a nice way, though of course that may not have come across.
Not only is it confirmed via neutron detection, we also have:

The price of turkey would go up, people will stop buying as much of it, kids in schools would go hungry. Eventually pig farmers will figure out a way to make pork-based-turkey, hire those workers, feed the kids, and overtake the turkey market. The demand for turkey will dry out, the plan will do a few rounds of layoffs and eventually shut down. As the result, people in town will lose jobs, will stop paying rent, will lose homes and move to a better place with more opportunities.

Supply and demand is a wonderfully simple system that regulates itself, and as much as it sounds appealing, us messing with it will only make things worse.
