Are you planning on living there for a short period of time (<~5yrs)? It may end up being cheaper overall to pay minimum down and go with the private mortgage insurance and a 30-year mortgage so you pay as little as possible while you're living there. But if you're planning on staying there long-term, a 15-year mortgage may be a better option.

How good is your credit? If it's good and you have a high income to debt ratio, your PMI will likely be pretty minimal. If so, you may end up netting better if you invest what you'd put down and let that money grow instead. Or you can put some of that into points for lower interest rates.

These things are pretty easy to figure out if you know what your home budget. There are a few places you can get rough estimates based on your credit score.
3K net is not that much. The whole point of working in IT in the US is that you shoot into the upper middle class levels of compensation. You are no longer a peer of a shopkeeper or a public official, you are now next to doctors and lawyers. You no longer have to balance your monthly budget, you manage your savings.
That's an interesting one, in all GDPR countries medical data has an even higher requirement as it's a case of special personal information. So Google scooping that up without clear user opt-in could result in large penalties.

I saw it recommended here a while ago, haven't tried it myself.
If there is anything I would like to see changed in Psychiatry is mandatory visits, especially when the paitient, and the doctor find the right drug, and both admit talk therapy is not helping.

In the USA, this is how the dealeo usually works:

1. If you don't have good insurance, or not wealthy, you don't have Talk Theraphy sessions with the Psychiatrist.

2. You usually have to find a MFCC, and yak away until the Psychologist gives you a recommendation to a Psychiatrist. (They all that their favorites,)

3. You finally see the Psychiatrist. He quickly determines if you need meds. The honest ones will tell you about current studies, like long term Schizophrenia patients seem to due better long term without medications. (This is a tough call.), or the evidence of efficacy of depression drugs is murky at best. (This will never come out of most doctors mouths. Placebo is their bread and butter.)

4. Ok you find a medication that works.

5. Many medications that actually work are habit forming. This is a problem.

6. A medication that works costs money, and it's not just the price of the drug.

7. It's those mandatory pricey office visits.

8. A psychiatrist can drag you in every week, or day, in order to ok those scripts. (most keep them at 6 weeks, or much longer if the patient does not want to come in.)

9. It get's irritating, and expensive.

10. I would like to see a federal law stating you only need to see a doctor once a year if you are on a drug long term. You obviously can't be a danger to society.

In fact, I would like to limit mandatory office visits for most medicines. Say you have been on a high blood pressure drug for years, you should be able to get refills in most cases without seeing a doctor.

11. You will never see a hard cap on mandatory office visits. That is how the Psychiatrists/MD's affords that very comfortable lifestyle.

Plus---the AMA knows the rap, and protects their members money. (Yes--it's more nuanced than I am writing write now, but the mandatory office visits for well functioning patients is expensive. And what is well functioning? You got me. By the time you end up in the Psychiatry office, and on meds, you life is never quite the same, and most doctors know that.

The one's that exploit their patients for money should be looked at, or delicenced.
I know the cultural understanding among developers is that FOSS is "altruistic", but that's often wrong.

It's all about incentives. If there's no incentive behind an OSS community working on this project, it'll just burn out a few naive souls, and kill off the project for the rest.

Giving the project to a company which has commercial interest in maintaining it and supporting it through commercial licensing could mean a better future for APL2.

This aftermath is very typical when a project is "interesting" from commercial perspective, but it's quite "boring" from technical/enthusiast perspective.

I'm not saying it's ALWAYS one way or another. But it depends on the APL2 audience.

We gotta start seeing FOSS as a tool, not as charity or as some sort of "giving to the world". We're engineers, or at least we should think as engineers. Engineers know no solution is just "best" at everything. Everything has pros and cons, and you need to consider things in context. That also applies to IP management with regards to what's best for a project's continued existence.
> Honestly, HN may want to just consider banning any site that runs this news article from being posted on HN, because this claim is basically proof they did not do even cursory research before posting.

You have made a strong claim of incompetence here and I would like to see you present some equally strong proof.

Note that the BBC article states:

> Mr Nadella and chief product officer Panos Panay will launch the new OS at a virtual event on 24 June, with Microsoft now facing stiff competition not just from Apple but also from Google

... which implies they have direct information about the launch of the new version.

Why would the BBC fabricate this information about the upcoming event? If you have evidence that this statement is incorrect, I encourage you to present it.
Sure, it shows that you can apply yourself to a task and finish it. That's also what a college degree shows, but at least there you learn something useful. Come to think of it, that's what any stint over a year or two at a company can show, too.

It's not predictive of the traits that mark a successful IC in my experience. I'm talking about areas like project planning, professionalism, large-scale system design, personal ownership, meticulousness, etc. Curiosity. Some of those might tangentially be covered by leetcode but I guarantee you important stuff isn't.

Everyone I've seen to fail, either via PIP or otherwise, has cracked these interviews. I've seen many fail over the years. Even worse, I've seen many whom I know would be strong performers, wash out because they got the wrong DP problem that day. Where's the benefit in a regime like this? The company loses and good candidates lose, too.

The WordPerfect file format is basically a long stream of bytes representing the text, with special control codes inserted for switching various features on and off.

In other words (IIRC) reveal codes was made possible largely because the file system representation matched what you saw on screen, so it was easy to keep the visual representation in sync with the file. In Word (certainly now and I think back then as well) it wasn't that way - the file was structured so there was a mis-match between the screen and the file, so keeping the two aspects in sync became more difficult as the in-memory representation was correspondingly structured rather than sequential.
I doubt you can claim "ownership" of text strings used for wifi and otherwise freely available. I suspect Google's lawyers would have stopped this feature from being implemented if there were even potential issues.
Having noted the WiGLE database I decided to give their mutual Netgear-provided SSID a spin. Over fifty thousand results.

So you could do worse than just name your access point NETGEAR followed by a two-digit number. Of course, your laptop might decide lots of other networks are yours, but it won't have the password for them.

> Atmel Corporation was founded in 1984 by George Perlegos, a Greek-American computer scientist. Atmel was an acronym for “advanced technology for memory and logic”.

I don't understand why this is downvoted. Capitalism was in fact restored undemocratically and against the wish of the majority and millions of people literally died from that.

Just because you personally like capitalism doesn't mean that forcing it as part of coup which led to millions of death isn't an atrocity. And yes propaganda was part of it.
Half the reason why minimum wages don't work: If they are too low they do nothing.

The other half is that if they are too high they don't create jobs that pay minimum wage. You can't legislate private jobs into existence.
Also, they save reviewed snippets and remarks. It's not great for private projects.
This is likely because the modern psychiatric industry evolved partly out of religious institutions. I wouldn't look at it and assume it's a sign of some universal human need.
What do you see as the benefit of having used blockchain? (I can imagine an answer, but you are the one who implemented it and have direct experience with it.)

It's not adjusted for anything, just in actual figures.

Per a blog I read:

Q1 2021 wages were 7.7% higher than Q1 2020 wages.

Q4 2020 wages were 7.7% higher than Q4 2019 wages.

Q3 2020 wages were 6.2% higher than Q3 2019 wages.

Q2 2020 wages were 6.5% higher than Q2 2019 wages.

It remains to be seen how bad the general consumer goods price increases will end up being.
Yes, I'm sure the fact that they are denying any public oversight wouldn't suggest any nefarious activities. Obviously it is not directly equatable, but to dismiss their history and pattern of actions as not continuing into the present day is ridiculous, frankly. To say that I'm being "needlessly" inflammatory. Are you kidding me?

The CIA has murdered and lied with reckless abandon for almost a century. They murdered at least one US president (JFK), and have controlled more (HW, Clinton,..). The CIA has infiltrations in major media, in our news, in our bestselling novels, the top tv shows and movies, the celebrity culture.

Their shape on the world is immense, and immensely evil. So I'm sorry if that is too far for you, but its not even close to far enough to account for the depths of darkness to the CIA.

Praying out loud, by yourself, is very therapeutic. Especially when there's something you're really struggling with there's an incredible feeling of release that comes with it.

When those prayers get answered, usually not in the way that you'd expect, you learn to do it more often.

Anecdotal, I know, but I've noticed a pattern that the most likely prayers to be answered are the ones where I'm praying for something that God would want for me; help forgiving someone when I can't let it go, breaking a bad habit, being a better husband or father, connecting with someone who needs help and guidance.
> A bubble is an objectively irrational shared belief in a better potential future … but that doesn’t just describe someone bidding up asset prices; it also describes anyone who chooses to build that kind of future.

Feels like they're redefining the term to be all encompassing. Normally something like Apple investing in R&D, and deciding to make the iPhone wouldn't be an "asset bubble".
It was liberating to hear a different kind of propaganda whose purpose was even less aligned with your own? I guess I can understand, but let's not pretend the goal of RFE was anything except increasing American power over Eastern Europe, against the will of the majority.

Last year, I read Tim Weiner's devastating book, "Legacy of Ashes: History of the CIA". It goes into detail about many of the events on this timeline.

I thought the book was a bit overly hostile -- surely the CIA isn't that incompetent -- and in looking for a rebuttal I found this on the CIA web site written by the "CIA History Staff": https://www.cia.gov/static/49561e0c75f85cc633453c8d40888e94/... . I found this a weak argument against the points made by Weiner but its interesting to read what the CIA thinks of its own history.

> Is there any evidence that "non-neoliberal" countries do better re: governance?

Not only is there no such evidence, but the Scandinavian countries that people like to point towards as proof that "democratic socialism" can bring good or even outstanding governance, are actually extremely neoliberal in basically everything save their highly tailored support for lower incomes. "Socialism with Scandinavian characteristics" is just good old bleeding-heart neoliberalism.

(For clarity, actual neoliberalism without the bleeding-heart part would be something like Singapore - still very good governance in many respects, but the social inequality there is quite tangible and quite a few people suffer real hardship as a result.)
Idea: an efficient market would be one with zero long-term covariance between investments. So, index funds would disappear. So, index funds are not really based on the efficient market hypothesis, they are based on the assumption of plutocracy.
It's amazing the cognitive biases that are present in every example.

A person who writes about how he doesn't believe in atheism, stating his "secular" client believes in god and such... In a country that is 80%+ Christian... Even if he had an atheist client, they would leave his practice as soon as he continued to insist that they pray and talk to priests as a solution to their problems... It's a self fulfilling prophecy
I think this is neat. You may need to make this customizable for users. As a tech lead / manager, I used to have 5-15 in-flight PRs at a time. Some of them took a week to review. I can see having them all in slack possibly becoming tiring. The bottleneck is not my attention span, but my schedule.

Secondly, and this is an easily debunked point but I want to ask it nevertheless - what stops Github from building a bot to do this? How to you plan to create additional value beyond the notifications?

Some would argue that React in general isn't a good fit for low-powered devices with a slow connection, because of its bundle size, long first input delay and a rather high cost of heavy javascript usage during re-rendering.

This is questionable, but it’s clear at least that China’s eventual response was more successful than the US’s, so there is that. Whether we’ll ever know the true origins of the virus is a different question of course.

> You would know if the CCP wasn't in control of the MSS or if the CPSU wasn't in control of the KGB if documents were leaking, if people were being assassinated, and so on.

I asked mainly because the KGB seems to have functioned a bit like a shadow government and operated with a high degree of autonomy, another commenter mentions that Putin himself is ex-KGB.

> The Church committee made a lot of things public, but as far as how things were done in the CIA there weren't much big changes.

There was an executive order signed banning political assassinations, and all evidence suggests that there were significant changes after their accountability was made clear.

[citation needed]

I have no particular affinity for the CIA. I am particularly disgusted by COINTELPRO, regime change efforts, and CIA’s use of torture during the Iraq war. I think it would make a lot of sense to split the covert operations and intelligence-gathering parts of the organization, but these reforms do not interest most politicians. However, I think one is hard pressed to prove that the situation with the CIA is substantially different from that of other intelligence agencies around the world, outside of the issues I mentioned. For one thing a lot of European intelligence agencies operate with even less transparency than the US IC (among them GCHQ, famously), so raising them up as a model gives me pause.

You can disable SSR and still use Next.js. Most people don't use Next.js because of SSR, they use it because it's easy to use and has an amazing developer environment. SSR works out of the box usually so it's a nice perk.

I disagree, this comment is on topic. The author presents an opinion that conflicts with the reality of the world. Psychologists are not merely trying to make people feel better with temporary solutions, but to help that person solve what is actually bothering them.
