>we consume a credit card worth

>Per lifetime? Per year? Per kilogram of food? Can you give a bit more context to this comment?

Everyone has a different line of credit.

It's not only the few grams of microplastic that might be ingested physically.

Rather the consumerism of society which drives demand for the kilotonnes of plastic to begin with.

Plus without exersicing a line of credit it would not be possible to consume more than you were worth.

When the more sustainable move financially, environmentally, and socially is to work toward making consumption an insignificant fraction of what people are worth.
Interesting article, I believe based on the methods section this is a computer simulation.

The t-cells from flu infections clearly didn’t provide complete protection against Covid-19 as 600,000 Americans died. But perhaps the death toll would be even worse. We’ve all seen the news stories where multiple family members in a single family die of Covid-19 and the explanation for how that happens with a virus where only approximately 0.6% of the infected die has always seemed a bit unknown (especially when it’s e.g. two people in their 50s both dying, who probably each had a survival chance of 99.9% or so based on their age).

I’m sure the authors would agree that even if you had a clinically diagnosed flu infection in 2019-2020 it’s probably a good idea to get the covid-19 vaccine anyway.
Plenty of posts critical of Agile. Personally I think that’s a shame but I fully get where they’re coming from.

Scale it up and you tend to amplify the dysfunctions, especially when no-one asked for it to be done to them in the first place. Get that bit right first, agreement on outcomes before solutions.
Every month or so I just bookmark all the tabs that I have open and never got around to getting back to, and place them in a folder which I'll probably never look at again. I tell myself that one day when I have the time, I'll go through them all and organize them. It's a little lie that I tell myself and it makes me feel okay with the bookmarks.
It seems like most of the issues with C++ are solved by not using the parts that suck. You can still write C++ as C-with-classes/RAII/operator overloads, and leave all the smart pointers and template meta-programming and boost (do people still use boost?) magic at the door.

You’ve used the term zero-sum incorrectly. Zero-sum games result in gains equal to losses.

Let’s say we all invested in Bitcoin today and only bought from people who had purchased at $10000. Then, in two years, if we sell our Bitcoin for $100000, we all make money. That’s not a zero-sum game because no one lost money.

There is a rumor going around the meme stock circles that financial institutions were using crypto to manage their liquidity/collateral issues. I'm in no way well-versed in this, but I'll try to convey my understanding. Essentially, banks are carrying too much cash from QE and the emergency infusion due to the COVID crash last year. They don't want to pay the interest on it, but they still need it for their other operations (the conspiracy theory is "manipulating meme stocks and preparing to cover should they fail a margin call"), so they'd been buying up crypto assets, hiding that cash in something that they could pump and dump almost at will. A month-ish ago, some regulation changed where they could no longer hold crypto as an interest-free asset, and coincidentally, we saw the bottom fall out of Bitcoin and the Fed's overnight reverse repo program (where the Fed does a short term swap of US treasuries for cash) begin to expand around the same time.

Suffice it to say that everyone figures that SOMEONE big is manipulating the crypto market to their own ends. With Tether serving as the lubricant greasing the wheels of the rest of the market, it has finance's prized "too big to fail" distinction.

Edit: I found one of the posts that explained the theory. I probably misunderstood it.

I think making this about the type checker is a bit of a red herring. There is nothing in this – otherwise excellent – advice that can’t be applied to a dynamically typed language like Ruby. It’s the same insight that leads OOP folks to warn against the Primitive Obsession code smell (http://wiki.c2.com/?PrimitiveObsession). It’s also the insight that leads to the Hexagonal Architecture ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexagonal_architecture_(softwa... ).

Market cap is the wrong metric to use. Tether is debt. Its entire market cap is redeemable in USD. It’s not possible to redeem the market cap of e.g. Bitcoin.

The title is misleading. They aren't being billed $60K each for tents, but for a whole range of services for a year, including shelter, food, hygiene, and security. I'd think the total ($15 million) should be divided by resident, not by domicile:

> The city has six so-called “safe sleeping villages,” where homeless people sleep in tents and also receive three meals a day, around-the-clock security, bathrooms and showers. The city created these sites during the pandemic to quickly get people off crowded sidewalks and into a place where they can socially distance and access basic services.

> The department is now asking the city for $15 million in the upcoming fiscal year for a similar number of tents, which amounts to about $57,000 per tent per year.
Well, pointer aliasing for example is a very tricky thing in C++ too. Even with strict aliasing, it is very unintuitive from the outside when you're going to trip over unexpected performance hurdles.

4 is definitely doable. More if you're in the apple ecosystem. iOS 15 (not yet releases) still supports the iPhone 6s which was originally released in 2015. I bought one last year as a testing device for work, and it's still a great phone (and much cheaper - £120 and had recently had it's battery replaced). On the android side you have to be more lucky, but my Samsung S7 (releases 2017) is still going strong and recieved a security update last month.

Fair. Regarding my first paragraph, I just meant of the people who do know what it is, I think 80 - 90% would probably say it's likely a scam. (I'm sure a good percentage of investors know nothing at all besides the words Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin, and hodl.)
Intel won't be able to do an M1 style SOC any time soon. Not with any architecture.

25% of car accidents in the US are caused by texting and driving. Although I think the “real solution” is self driving cars or some other great technology, I wanted to run an experiment where, every time you look down to text and drive, you get shocked.

The video explains some of the technical details and you get to see the hilarious experiment I ran but I'll highlight a few other key points.

- I thought a lot about different ways to detect when I look down. Originally this was just a solution for pausing the TV when I look down to eat so I don’t miss my show (lol), so I thought about using a camera to track my eyes. I started to go down this path but quickly aborted to avoid high costs and an over engineered solution.

- I eventually used the MetaMotionC sensor from Mbientlab which has an accelerator and gyroscope, among other things (more info here: https://mbientlab.com/store/metamotionc/). Their documentation wasn’t great so it took some time to get the sensor working with the Raspberry Pi. The sensor clips onto my glasses, so it was pretty simple to tweak the sensitivity settings and change it from detecting when you eat food to when you look down to text.

- Out of curiosity, does anyone have other use cases for what this glasses sensor could be useful for?

- I thought about using the Pi to send a signal to the collar to trigger the shock. This seemed pretty daunting to reverse engineer. I know I’d need some sort of transmitter to send the signal, but how else might I go about reverse engineering it to send the correct signal to the collar? Any tools, tutorials, etc that people recommend I look into? Might be useful for a future project but for this one, I used a solenoid to press the button on the remote.

- Using a solenoid to press the TV remote/shock collar remote buttons was trivial for me since I recently built a robot that plays Guitar Hero (powered by solenoids). I had struggled and learned a lot in that project so there weren't any surprises this time around.

- The actual texting and driving experiment only took about 30 minutes to run. But making the device, setting up the driving course, filming, editing, etc, made this all take about 6-7 weeks. Similar to my Guitar Hero robot which was on here a while ago (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26843838), it probably cost around $1,000 for everything (traffic cones are super expensive plus smaller costs like Raspberry Pi, shock collar, and misc tech parts).

I similarly used a work laptop almost as long until I was forced off Arch for compliance reasons this year (sigh). Your anecdotal failures are not everyone's experience, definitely not mine.

> Or let the programmer tell the compiler a little bit more about what they need and don't need the code to do, so the compiler can do a much better job if it.

You can do this today in languages like C#:

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/csharp/write-safe-ef...

> Adding the readonly modifier to members that don't mutate state provides two related benefits. First, the compiler enforces your intent. That member can't mutate the struct's state. Second, the compiler won't create defensive copies of in parameters when accessing a readonly member. The compiler can make this optimization safely because it guarantees that the struct is not modified by a readonly member.
> Intel has the ability to "do an M1" with RISC-V, leapfrogging ARM.

What about Intel’s execution over the last 5+ years gives you this confidence?
Yeah I guess it seems like a decent model for "safe" software would be sandboxed memory, and fine-grained file permissions. Arbitrary network traffic is a bit less dangerous - I mean someone could steal CPU cycles to process data and send it over network, but a safe language is not going to save you from that either.

Most programs do not need arbitrary access to the file system, and it should be the OS's job to whitelist which files a program has access to. Again, a safe language is not going to save you from bad behavior on the filesystem either. It really only solves the memory problem.
I can grant you other people use Wickr for normal communication - why: for lack of better alternatives
> generally favour hard to understand style like point free where pipes are a lot easier to follow

No they don't. Every Haskeller I know (myself included) acknowledges that sometimes point free style is better, and sometimes it isn't. None of them would unilaterally declare it better, and most generally avoid it except in very simple situations.

> The Haskell community is full of people who are here to geek out rather than produce software.

The Haskell community is full of people who are here to geek out about the best ways to produce software. This means they embrace tools like mathematics, and are generally extra thoughtful about structuring programs in principled ways. It's a wonderful community of people who care about the details of their craft and treat it like a skill to be honed over time. I have a lot of respect for that.

If I could rant for a moment: I'm really sick of spending many years of my life investing in myself and my ability to produce software with the best tools humanity has to offer, only to have these people in Hacker News tell me I'm just doing mental masturbation when it seems like they don't even understand what they're criticizing.
If the restaurant uses the stablecoin, nobody takes the loss because the transaction is happening with a different currency. The restaurant isn't holding BTC, it's holding a USD-equivalent.

If BTC loses 10 percent of its value overnight, the people who lose are the people who sold at the lower prices. When we say "the price of BTC is X", what we really mean is that a trade happened at that price. That means that someone thought selling at that price was the right thing for them to do and someone else thought that buying at that price was the right thing to do.

Thanks to the ‘Vitamin B17’ thing, a vitamin discovered today wouldn’t be called a Vitamin.
Hmmmm. Let me start by saying that I've been eating unwashed fresh food (plant and animal both) since I was crawling (as have most of my friends and family members) without any incidence of health issues. In fact, one of the things I couldn't understand after I moved from Poland to the US, is how come all of the American kids have routine gut and intestinal issues. Specifically, what is a "stomach flu" that these kids keep talking about?

I've brought near-dead piglets seemingly back to good health by giving them a spoonful of rich compost, almost certain to be teaming with e-coli among all sorts of other microbes considered to be pathogenic.

>Animal poop is full of it, and we don't want that in our food supply.

Animal poop is already in our commercial food supply, especially vegetables as you alluded to. Hell, quite a lot of rat and mice meat is allowed in our commercial meats here in the US.

>Machines don't leave e-coli behind to contaminate our food like biological organisms do.

No, instead machines leave behind oil, gas, coolant residues to contaminate our food and soils.

E-coli is only a problem if you don't embed yourself and your gut with as many other strains of various microbes as you possibly can. If you're HIV positive or immunocompromised, then for sure, wash your fresh food and everything else you ingest, for everybody else, don't worry about e-coli.

Mediocre Cheats and Where to Find Them
Someone doesn't have to take a loss. There's a distinction to be made between "realized" and "unrealized" capital gains. Realized gains are those that exist because you have now sold your assets and converted it back into money; unrealized gains exist only on paper and are premised on people continuing to value the asset the same.

So it can be the case that no one takes the 10 percent loss. Everyone who is selling may have bought at a lower cost basis (and thus will realize a gain). The price is lower because it had to go down to entice new buyers to bet it will go back up again.

There is a funky situation where you try to sell your assets and you find nobody willing to take it at any price. At that point, you can turn around and say "I don't want to own this worthless piece of paper anymore," strike it from your assets list (i.e., "write-off"), and now you realize a 100% loss.
Except that a smart runtime can actually work with the assumption that only one implementation of a class will be used, and inline what would otherwise be virtual methods. And, as far as I know, the JVM definitely does this, and at multiple levels too - if there's only one implementation of an interface, it can just assume that everything's static and inlineable (at the cost of deoptimizations if that turns out to be false later). If not, it can still decide to inline, and just check the type beforehand.
