Gas is cheaper if you already have a gas installation. However nowadays most gas appliances are long gone and heating installations are increasingly switching to heat pumps. At that point, the cost to install gas just for cooking is hard to justify.

Indeed that’s the reason most places I’ve lived no longer have a gas stove. The cost of adding a gas supply is just too high for it to be viable.
First of all, if you go back in memory, you didn't choose your birth. By all possibilities, your parents truly never had a choice, they didn't choose to bring a particular kind of you into the world. And so on, you can go back. Even this particular thought you expressed here, did you choose it? Seems unlikely. If you ask what caused this thought, you'll see that it got triggered from somewhere, either internal/external. The point of this investigation is that, you cannot help very many things happening in the universe. The universe operates on its own, and you're merely a part of it, and you too operate according to external/internal laws. Don't take the societal idea of responsibility too seriously. Control is an illusion, choice is an illusion. You couldn't help but do what you did, all your life: so, relax, nothing is ever in control! Birth is not a choice, circumstances are not a choice, even your thoughts and emotions are not a choice, and in the same breath, death too is not a choice :)
No it's the perfect example of trust (misguided or not) electors have.

China managed to build a massive high speed rail network across rough terrain and completely inhabited land in a few years. Their network is safe and reliable.

I've noticed it's becoming increasingly common to just give up and excuse everything in the US. "Well we could build new rails, but..." "Well we could get health care prices under control, but..." "Well we could solve (x problem that most other countries don't have), but..."

It's kind of a sad decline from being the world leader by far like the US was 50 years ago. There's always a billion reasons to not do something, but not much push to actually do something.

Entrepreneurship during the pandemic: Business Formation Statistics [pdf]
Of course not, I myself read it often.

I'm arguing against the GP that said that it's okay to read only the Economist. It's not okay to read only a single source. You can be as critical as you want but if you no longer have any bearings on a subject you're being led by the nose.

Also, "pro-economy bias" is pretty vague. There are many ways one could be biased in a way so as to focus on a better economy, and they can be radically different.
In many ways, modern gravel bikes are a comeback of the "sport touring" road bikes that were popular from roughly the mid 70s to the mid 90s, then became mostly absent from market. Compared with "racing" bikes, they had wider tires, a more relaxed geometry, and various conveniences such as mounting points for fenders and racks. Thus, they were a much better option for the majority of riders who did not participate in serious road racing.

Then for 20 years you couldn't really get a road bike with tires larger than 23 mm, which is totally illogical in places with less than perfect roads such as here in Canada.

Really happy that gravel bikes have brought back some sensibility to the sport, and that they provide a nice "all around" option in a market where manufacturers had been using "super specialization" of products to entice customers to buy more products.

Now I'm waiting for a similar trend to take over XC skiing!
I’ve mixed feelings about rg in exactly this respect.

On one hand, it’s awesome. It’s both excellent from a programmer’s standpoint and indispensable from a user’s standpoint. It’s just so neat it’s hard not to love it. A remote interviewer thought I just had a custom alias for grep -r and it was hard not to laugh and share the joy and relief that I didn’t.

On the other hand, it’s decidedly anti-Unix, arguably even more so than GNU utilities. The man page goes on for ages, and not because it’s written badly (it’s not), but because the tool does so much. I really wish you didn’t have to bundle all of that functionality into a monolithic binary to get this kind of performance.

For reference, walking directory trees was specifically cut out of the Plan 9 userland and left for du(1) because it was stupid how many implementations of it there were. Yes, Rust’s is in a library, but then you don’t have Unix as your OS, you have Rust instead. “Every language wants to be an OS”[1].

> The pandemic-driven jump in dog adoptions was linked to a spike in dogs brought in to the US with falsified or fraudulent rabies certificates. During 2020, the CDC found more than 450 dogs arriving in the US with fake certificates - a 52% jump compared to the previous two years - Dr Emily Pieracci of the CDC told NPR.

So a million dogs are imported into the U.S. every year and the CDC is banning all importation because of 450 fraudulent cases?
> The secret is to show up. Every day. Just keep stacking those good days.

This is just not true. The most popular beginner weight lifting programs are comprised of ~3 workouts a week of ~30-60 minutes each. There's a reason for that. Exercising every day sure sounds nice, but it increases the chance of injury and often is too great a commitment for people with a sedentary lifestyle.

> Most programs get repetitive after 6-8 weeks anyway

You can easily follow a beginner program for many months before linear progression stops. Switching programs after 6-8 weeks as a newbie is absolutely pointless when you do compound exercises.

> (It’s also much easier said than done)

Yeah, it is when you force yourself to work out every day. 3 days a week though? Far more manageable.
You can mislead with true information, selectively given. It fits the definition.
> Ideally, businesses that want the raw data would be subject to security compliance requirements.

Isn’t that already true for businesses that store this data from any source?
Slightly OT but it's disheartening to see the overton window at work when people call Democrats "left". It's like the frame of reference has shifted so far to one side that "slightly progressive corporate-run party" vs "socially conservative corporate-run party" is framed as "left vs right".

How is that related to not investing this $500B in cash?

I think people want different things and long term capital projects and short term cash aren’t really competing projects. It’s not like someone is going to decide to change their 3 month horizon that would be impacted from rates increasing to a 10-20 year horizon for solar panels and wind turbine projects.

> The reason mainstream media appears to be left biased is because people use the government's political center as their frame of reference rather than that of the populace. The media caters to political beliefs of actual average American. The federal government caters to the center of voting power, which is heavily skewed towards smaller states which tend to be more conservative. This disparity is what people perceive as "left bias".

Wow, I never thought of that.
Yes. And a hole-in-the-wall fireplace will reliably cause a house to get colder in the winter, by sucking warm interior air up and out the chimney, to be replaced with cold outside air drafted in through leaks in the envelope and HVAC penetrations.
I personally still really like the lazy DFA approach. Especially for the single-pattern use case. In particular, it handles the case of large Unicode character classes quite well by avoiding the construction of huge DFAs unless the input actually calls for it.

With that said, I have longed for simple ways of composing regexes better. I've definitely fallen short of that, and I think it's causing me to miss a whole host of optimizations. I hope to devote some head space to that in the next year or so.
Says the Cygnus Solutions cofounder. Wow. Where are people like you working today?
1000% agree about the hyper-stimulation. I see the signs of it in everyone around me. Very very few people take the time to "unplug" and ACTUALLY experience some quiet times, reflect on life and shut out the infinitely-noisy outside world.

This "information control" continues in present time. Remember a few months ago when an elected official lying was a big deal? Then K. Harris goes on tv last week in a major network news interview and says "we've been to the border." (Kudos to Lester Holt for immediately calling her out). Where's the condemnation?

Or consider the narrative around Hunter Biden's laptop. Mainstream news would have you think the "story" is that Russians are planting disinfo with Rudy Giuliani's help. Never mind the fact that there are photos of him smoking crack, discussions of business deals juicing in "the big guy", tax fraud investigations, and now, casually tossing around the n-word. NYT or MSNBC simply chooses not to report this information, despite reporting on the previous president's children at every possible opportunity.
Unfortunately, the clones also weren't clock stable at all - they were fine at 115200 and such, but if you pushed them up to 3Mbaud or so, they mostly read/wrote garbage. I put a few of them on a good scope and the timing was just all over the place. The legit FTDIs are rock solid on their timing even up at high baud rates.

So I got some legit chips and just did the surface mount rework to replace the fakes with the legit ones and solved my problem. I had no idea when I got the adapters that they had fake chips on them. :/

// This always strikes me as the answer that a computer science reclusive would take

Just to be clear, you made an assumption in your first sentence and then ran with it for 3 paragraphs.

// I would bet money

If I had to bet who can better assess what proper recruiting for a company looks like, I'd bet MY money on the company, not on random complaints on the internet that basically amount to "it must be the interview structure that prevents me from working at a FAANG"
Wow, that's impressive.

I would still assume identity theft via websites being hacked is a lot more common, and likelihood is an appropriate factor when evaluating protective actions. But you make a good point about the bouncer.

Buried much of the way down the article is discussion of stock price targets. (In fact, if memory serves, that record-breaking Tesla package from 2018 was conditional on stock price performance, which, at the time, many presumed impossible.)

As long as we live in a world where the sole accountability of a CEO is to her shareholders via price mechanisms, pay packages that scale based on share price will probably continue.

Some of the most loved small manufacturers for UL backpacking gear to look into: Mountain Laurel Designs, Gossamer Gear, Tarptent, Western Mountaineering, Enlightened Equipment, ULA, Hyperlite Mountain Gear, ZPacks, McHale Packs (all custom). There are a lot more that I missed, but that should set you in the right direction.

Here are some of the most essential items for my setup (tested for ~2000 miles in various conditions, like the PCT/AT):

- HMG Windrider 3400 backpack (“just works” better than any other UL pack I have used)

- ZPacks 20F sleeping bag (hoodless is great!)

- Patagonia Houdini wind jacket (extremely versatile layer)

- Patagonia sun hoody (essential for skin protection, in my opinion)

- Uniqlo Heattech extra warm leggings (the greatest clothing item of all time) + Uniqlo down hoody jacket

- Fleece pullover hoody (almost any will do—comfort/extra warm item).

- Thermarest Neoair

- Gossamer Gear 1/8” EVA foam sleeping pad for protecting the Neoair and a zillion other uses (e.g. yoga/picnic/door mat, makeshift rain skirt)

- Tyvek groundsheet (cheap, indestructible, waterproof, becomes buttery soft over time)

- Carbon fiber trekking poles (the ones from Costco are cheap/good)

- AquaMira water treatment drops (the Sawyer squeeze filters deliver fresh filtered water, but they break/leak constantly)

- 2x 1L Smartwater bottles + a 2L Platypus bag

- MLD Patrol tarp with an inner tent or bivy (like this: http://www.nwhikers.net/forums/viewtopic.php?p=522791). That’s about 16.0 oz (incl. good stakes) for a versatile and storm-worthy(ish) double wall setup.
I think he may actually be wrong, maybe... All costs are payroll costs in an abstraction interpretive sort of way. The non-pay roll-costs such as materials goes to pay other people to make and supply the materials. The cost of steel really is the cost to pay another group to mine, refine, and distribute the steel. Every accountant item I believe can be conceived this way.
The counterpoint I'd use is the way my grandparents treated their dogs: they were working animals, not pets. Never to be let in the house; their job is to watch the sheep in the barn or the fields, and being in the house is counterproductive for that. And, presumably, if you were moving transoceanic, you'd just get new guard dogs at your destination just like you'd get new sheep at your destination.
Then you're already misjudging the bias, the Economist supported interventionist in Syria, Libya, Iraq, and even soft intervention in Bolivia. It's as interventionist as most.

As far as free trade, that's difficult to apply to most situations.

Most of what I do in a browser is read documents. News articles, blogs, those kinds of things. So I just turn off everything using umatrix BT default. CSS, JS, everything except first party images. It works very well. I'd rather scroll through broken formatting to get to the meat I'm trying to get to than tolerate a nonstandard UI just to read a document.

I use some web apps (like HN or github) and so I change settings for those sites. My rule of thumb is if your site isn't a web app you I don't need anything but HTML. Every so often I get third party images or other media that I want to see, so I turn it on. And every so often I get a page that I am only expecting a document but instead get a blank page, indicating to me that they require scripts to be on to receive a text document. I immediately as a rule close them. If you need to see where my cursor is or whatever just for me to read what you have to say I'm not interested in reading what you have written.
I'm having a hard time taking anything new from Google seriously. In 2 years they might just sunset both of these for yet another iteration of a work collaboration and messaging app.
Sure, but some people survive rabies. You're talking lethality with a 99.9% kill rate for rabies vs 100% kill rate for HIV. They're just different timeframes.

Not to mention, you are liking about symptomatic cases. It's possible to cure non symptomatic cases of rabies, but that's not possible with HIV.

I've done Starting Strength, and I don't think it's good for beginners - imo the exercises are too technical, and the focus on heavy weight encourages injuries.

I mean, it's OK if you want to start a career as a powerlifter, but not if you're just looking to slightly increase general fitness and not get injured.

For true beginners, classic light weight exercises with dumbells and cable machines, plus bodyweight exercises like pushups and unweighted squats are probably better choices.

> I assume is the ability to cut back on costs in a pinch without touching the salary itself per se.

A pay increase is a > 10 year commitment, in the eyes of the accounting department. Where I am, it's usually around 60% base cash bonus, %30 base RSU bonus, for "above average" performance (which isn't difficult). I, unlike most of my colleagues, budget my life around my base pay. I experienced the 2007 recession, so in my mind, this is all unsustainable and will crash someday.

I would venture to guess, though, that a very small, single-digit percentage (possibly even sub-one-percent) of all-people-ever made things this way. A vanishingly small number of people have the influence to shape "what work means" to this degree. Yes, people going along with things, or even supporting things (because someone in power told them to) plays a big part; the puppetmasters do need some amount of consent and compliance from the masses. But the drivers of change are few.
Unlike find, fd follows the rg approach of respecting VCS ignores, which does have both advantages and disadvantages. But if you know you’re specifically searching for a binary, just pass -u (once to include VCS-ignored files, or even twice to also include hidden ones) and you’re golden. In your specific example you probably also want -F (fixed string) or -g (glob), because fd does regexes by default and I doubt you want to type '\.apk'.

As to find, its flexibility certainly comes handy on occasion, but...

find: paths must precede expression

Aaaargh.
Because the content of the leak was not interesting, it was pretty much just an executive summary of previous public releases. I've always suspected that they let her leak it (or even tricked her into leaking it) in order to get lefty support for Russiagate allegations. The Intercept's bad handling of the documents would be a sort of material parallel construction (especially with Esposito on the receiving end of them, an obvious spook.)
I think it’s more “prove who you are in order to drive for Uber” and less “prove who you are in order to buy something on the internet”. The completion rates from the latter would be worse than just eating the fraud in probably most cases.

We all want Uber to verify identity because paying for a ride with a complete anon is not the best idea.

Maybe if you're already in a famous company, but I've been itnerviewing/applying for a while and it's absolutely draining, especially with a lot of companies just trying to mimick the hiring practices of FAANG.
