Yes, if there is mandatory leave, it of course does.

For example, according to https://anewlifeinnorway.wordpress.com/2013/12/04/norwegian-..., in Norway, fathers must take 14 weeks off. That means if a man wants 8 kids, then that's almost 112 weeks off... or two years! That's ridiculous, and only serves to decrease wages of familial breadwinners than to actually help families.

This will just result in a society where only those without kids are the richest, and normal families suffer.
Depends on your definition of winning. Is your goal to get the other side to capitulate, or is your goal for the onlookers and interested parties to come away with a view of the world that’s actually useful? If you’re a public intellectual or participant in the internet, you’re not arguing in isolation. People are watching, and it absolutely has an impact even if you don’t directly observe it. This bit of internet “wisdom” is maybe one of the most destructive and misapplied factoids to emerge in recent years, because while true in its narrowest sense, is utterly useless if ones aim is to contribute to the wider world of discourse.
That sounds like an incredible project, if you have a write-up I'd love to read it.

Your mileage may vary.

Personally, the ideal time for me to lift is my serum caffeine peak, and when I'm done, it takes a half hour to 45 minutes for my heart rate to return to baseline. I'll sweat another 500ml or so during the refractory period, and have no appetite to speak of. I can't even imagine sleeping during this time.

After which my appetite returns with a vengeance, and I'm up for a big meal and a long nap if I can swing it. I sleep very well on lifting nights, which is a blessing because my sleep quality is unfortunately poor in general these days (you can skip the advice, I don't need or want it, thanks).

Lifting weights starting about three hours before bedtime might work, actually, but hasn't really been compatible with gym scheduling for me. I'm about to join one with later hours and might try it, although rallying after supper strikes me as unlikely given my usual energy levels. Worth a shot though!
Stephen, I'm worried about you buddy. This is an obsession -- but it is one borne of your own ignorance. How someone can be so obsessed with something without actually understanding it is deeply troubling.

"There is no legitimate economy that transacts in bitcoin."
Vastly, Deeply incorrect.

You are spouting authoritarian nonsense. Its not too late to open your eyes and see the damage you causing to yourself. Bitcoin, like the honey badger, does not care.
Are you really trying to paint the fact that the younger generation is taking greater steps to systematically take care of their health as a bad thing? That is absurd.
> Wait, so you automatically dislike anything that is above {certain capital amount}? The typical pub argument driven by beer and class warfare memes, I see. How insightful.

You don't need to respond like this.

> something that happens in virtually any service of scale,

A music and artist focused startup or business has no problem catering to artists. Apple doesn't have the bandwidth, care, or attention to care as much. They're using this service to soak up attention and entrench their moat.

Unfortunately, Apple and the FAMGA giants soak up all the revenue and attention. If the DOJ stepped in and required these companies to split along business unit lines, the probability we'd be having this discussion would be much lower.

> Apple isn't part of this, no one in there will read this noise. But you've figured everything out, apparently: "X rich, so X evil on purpose".

Apple is part of a recent trend of tech monopolies consuming all markets. I'm not trying to reach Apple, I'm talking with my legislators. My hope is that the DOJ will break up these companies so that good, healthy competition can take place again.

A company that cares deeply about music and artists would serve everyone better than Apple. Or Google. Or Amazon.
Thank you for the explanation! I feel like I understand this better now.

From what I understand, the "long time" will be probably less than modular implicits, which are estimated at at least a few years away. There are a few informations here https://discuss.ocaml.org/t/multicore-ocaml-may-2021/7990 and here https://discuss.ocaml.org/t/multicore-ocaml-june-2021/8134, where at least we can see that the effect branch is up to date with 4.12.

You also need to find a way to speed up tree growth rate by 10x or 100x for this solution to be effective before most of the damage is done.
I wonder if it’s also misleading to only say that young adults have a rise in cases (due to less vaccination) and be fearful of that. The overall hospitalization and death is still lower (I think I read another article that talked about either in California or NY) because they’re better at handling covid. We need to present the hospitalization / death by age range for vaccinated and unvaccinated which if anyone has any data on that I would love to see it.

I remember hearing Mordrax speak about the upgrade, quite herculean!

At our company it was much less drastic. At the time we had about 35kloc of Elm and it took me one evening of Vim macro frenzy. The trickiest things we encountered were an elm/http API change and temporarily vendoring packages that didn't yet upgrade themselves.

I'm sure it's been mentioned elsewhere here already by someone, but I've always thought that converting felled 'sequestration stock' to bio-char and making terra preta out of it would be win-win-win, as it could then be used to improve desertified land.

As much as CO2 emissions befear me, so too does increasingly poor topsoil, globally.

I'm not even sure we'd need to wait for trees to mature either - we just need work with whatever plant absorbs the most CO2. Perhaps algae, even?
I had a diagnosed case of COVID-19 that hit me and my partner pretty hard about 7 months ago. It lasted longer than either of us expected (close to a month) but there were only a few really rough days.

Fast forward, and I have plenty of issues. We were both fairly depressed during the winter months - for me it was the worst in a great many years. I've had some moments of mental iffiness here and there, at least enough to notice. I had a really nasty throat infection a few months after COVID. And I've had a joint issue crop up in that time as well.

The thing is, I never once considered any of this to be the direct consequence of my COVID infection. And I still don't. We were depressed because, after enduring nearly a year of pandemic, the weather was shit, our jobs were on shaky ground and the world was re-closed. The mental iffiness? I don't know. Sustained lack of stimulus and activity levels? Natural decline due to age? Occasionally too much drinking?

I think you see where I'm going with this. I don't want to dispute anyone's own experience. But I do think it's worth considering that to not have any ailments arise within a 12-month period as unusual as this one might not be the most common outcome, with or without a COVID infection.
My understanding is that when wood first appeared on Earth nothing was able to decompose all of that cellulose for millions of years until microbes evolved a way to break the molecules apart and feed on them. I don't know if simply burying the trees is enough to sequester it away now that wood decomposes so readily.
Tangential but np.bincount is typically the fast version of np.unique. Not entirely the same thing, but it’s worth knowing about it.
I'm a bit surprised this paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/1906.05243 wasn't in the citations, nor did the authors build on it
That seems much more complicated than just planting some fast growing plant (eg. bamboo), converting it to charcoal, and burying it somewhere. That achieves the same carbon sequestration effect, without having to worry about petrification.
Again, that’s centralized. Less central than your previous example, but still requires a dependency on their municipal plant and power lines. Not sure why this is a confusing concept.
Nit, the 258 number makes this an inference on the broader population, not an extrapolation, if it's a random sample.

It is, however, an extrapolation to make claims about the entire dev world when looking just at UK devs.
Completely agree. The term "limitations" is being used here to mean faults. When your study has faults, its conclusions are of little to no use and only serves as fodder for the media. It should be binned.
I agree that most of the time the segfault will happen later during program execution, which makes debugging very tricky. From that point of view, Java preserving memory safety even in presence of data races is a big win. I guess that's also what makes Rust so appealing for programs needing memory safety with concurrency and no GC.
>In actuality you will find that many null hypotheses hold true

I'm assuming you mean within the confines of the experiment, correct? I agree. The tweet author was eluding to the fact that "IRL" the null hypothesis is almost never true at the population level. Meaning if you grab a large enough sample you will detect very, very small differences. (This was her Lucky Charms ~ blood type example in the tweet). I also agree with that. I don't think the two claims are mutually exclusive and the fact they can coexist is (I believe) precisely her point about sample size.
I use tridactyl’s `:b` often. No previews, no fullscreen, no fuzzy matching, but at least full titles and word search.
Its used to reverse engineer an unknown binary without the matching source code. Since Ghidra already is open source it be no use to audit Ghidra itself except for learning purposes. It might be useful to reverse engineer a closed source driver so you can write an open source one from scratch.

> I will always wonder if I had called them earlier if I could have avoided the worst of this

Given the prevalence of Long Covid in asymptomatic cases, many people claim that the severity of the initial disease and the long-term symptoms are not really correlated. So it's likely that seeking emergency care wouldn't have changed anything.

Wishing you the best of luck and a good/complete recovery!

Funny because I've never had problems with, what is commonly accepted as the lowest of the three you mentioned: Acer, like I have with Apple. I have an old Chromebook C710 that just. will. not. die. My Partner's newer Macbook only has one working USB port now. There are more Apple products in my product history graveyard than everything else. Combined.

I've long come to the conclusion that people simply treated their Apple devices better and not that they actually were higher quality or better engineered.
Absolutely, having kids is sacrificing your body to the survival of the species. Thanks for that! That's what evolution would tell us to do.
You should try to get out more then.
The one legitimate "problem" in that list that is #3, the hard limit on FIFO messages (20,000). The rest are expected behavior for a 'deliver exactly once and in order' queue. The use cases offered (client fails to process and therefore consume the next message, blocking subsequent messages) and somehow (?) expecting the queue to facilitate reprocessing previous consumed messages are both misuses of such a queue.

SQS (standard and FIFO) has another problem that precludes using it in one case I have; the 256KB message size limit. Amazon has a Java-only workaround (Amazon SQS Extended Client Library for Java) that will spool large messages to/from S3 -- so clearly my case isn't unreasonable -- but there is nothing for the general case.
The UX is 90% a matter of what you know and what you are familiar with coming in.

Did you log (screenshot) the infringement with a name? Can you trace that name back to your ex-employee? You have a copyright infringement case if so. However, you need to show or posit losses due to it. It is difficult and possibly expensive. If you have solid evidence, I would trash their name all over the internet.

- pandemic in progress: check

- risky lifestyle: check (as in very frequent air travel for work)

- symptoms: O2 level drop, fluid in lungs, persistent cough, extreme tiredness, dizzyness, loss of smell/taste check all of these, and the rest, fortunately not. Later on: crazy beating heart for no particular reason, losing weight steadily but more slowly now.

Decision not to test was made by qualified medic, who said that they needed the tests for those cases where there was some degree of doubt, which in my case there really wasn't, besides that there was an extreme shortage of tests at that time. And to call an ambulance straight away, and not my house doctor in case things got worse than they were at that moment.

Keep in mind that there are vast numbers of people that have gotten COVID that did not get tested and that therefore do not show up in the various statistics. Especially in the beginning the health care system was totally overwhelmed and care went to those who needed it most, and either wasn't administered to those who might have benefited from it and many who simply didn't make it.
That title seems somewhat unfair, as if they were trying to take a selfie with a lightning strike and that ended then in the hospital. Instead it seems like they were taking a selfie while taking shelter under a tree during a storm and lightning happened to strike at that very moment and was captured in the photo.

That's what I suspected when reading the first part of the post where it states that heapq.merge() is slower than sort(). Hmm, isn't it comparing Apple to Orange since heapq.merge() is implement in Python and the system sort() would be in C?
I am not sure what I think of your comment, but I think it at least deserves discussion.

I have used said supplements before. In fact, I have a close friend who is very enamored with supplements and has about 50 different pill bottles in his medicine drawer.

Out of curiosity, I once spent two weeks taking about 25 pills a day at his recommendation, and I'm afraid they did not do very much for me — at least that I could noticeably discern.

The only supplement/herbal medicine I've had success with is St. Johns Wort, but I've been strongly discouraged from using it by a psychiatrist who emphatically emphasized that an SSRI is a much safer and more controllable way to achieve the same effects if need be.

Magnesium deficiency is relatively common, though I wonder if that isn't more of a dietary issue.
I don’t think it’s impossible, unlikely given current information. Of course that information can change…

Ah, of course. Poor unfortunate Americans. How could you possibly feed your children on just $40k a year. No doubt that explains the emaciated appearance of the average American child.

Sure you can mix and match and get all confused. But I would stick to that.
Interestingly I had a similar experience three years ago as well. I would cough non-stop and no medication was of any help. It lasted three months and then slowly disappeared. The weeks after I still had some respiratory problems (whistling when breathing), but nothing too annoying compared to the cough. Without joking, this was far from being an agreeable period and it impacted my studies quite a lot as coughing all day made me very tired and I was unable to study properly. Doctors never found what had happened.
Yeah, that's how I understand it also. But they are talking about putting it in (plastic) goods "that store it forever". So I'm thinking that they could just solidify it somehow and bury it in the ground? Feels fairly cheap?

But I'm not clear on wether their price point includes the revenue they get from selling the carbon (in the form of fuels or plastic)?

I.e, does it cost them 36 USD, or 351 USD? [0]

[0]: 36 USD + (1 tonne of Co2 / 19 lbs of Co2 per gallon of fuel) * 3 USD / gallon of fuel ≈ 36 + 105*3 = 351 USD. Makes a huge difference...
If you can increase arable land then other trees will grow there. I would prefer to create as much biomass as possible. Surely the net biomass stored in fossil fuels could be completely resuscitated, so to speak.
For most people, the company they work for is also enduring an increase in costs from their vendors, and salary increases often take a backseat to keeping supplies inbound. Multiyear lease agreements and many support contracts get pegged to CPI for annual increases, meaning budgets will have to increase for these basics. Since everything is competing for the same pot of money, inflation generally means you paycheck is worth less and you'll be lucky to see a timely increase to account for it.

From BLS: "In June, the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers rose 0.9 percent on a seasonally adjusted basis; rising 5.4 percent over the last 12 months, not seasonally adjusted. The index for all items less food and energy increased 0.9 percent in June (SA); up 4.5 percent over the year (NSA)."

If you have $100M worth of carbon captured from the air stored somewhere under the ground, how do you make sure nobody takes advantage of this vast supply of energy?

You will have to deal with this problem either way, going straight to the Saudi Arabian oil operator just skips the middleman.
Yup, all great points, though I'm a lot more skeptical that #1 and #3 can be addressed with better awareness.

The problem is that for every PSA from the government, message from a doctor, or conversation with a trusted friend or loved one, there's a hundred posts on <insert social media platform here> that are designed to appeal to folks looking for a reason not to take the vaccine. It's basically a fight against an at-scale, technology-assisted gish gallop.

Chronic insomnia is an actual medical condition, just like feeling low is distinct from depression.

Just like basically anyone with depression has tried most-to-all of the "if you're feeling down try this!" advice, those of us afflicted with insomnia have tried any "winding down" method you might casually inflict as low effort drive-by advice on the internet.

Yeah it works sometimes. Then some other times I just don't fall asleep that night and it messes up my whole week. So it goes.
It makes sense from the company perspective. Pay for experience with your things, coworkers and processes - reward loyalty.

I think it would make even more sense for software developement, since the code base usually is so extremely specific that there are no other experts then those who work with it. Still the best way to increase wage is to change job to something you have no clue in until a year or two working with it. Saving pennies for a dollar.
Not only that, but also list(a + b) is producing two different new lists since (a + b) produces a list and list() constructs a new list copy. The benchmark would be faster if the OP just did

def sort_test():
m2 = a + b;
m2.sort()

instead of

def sort_test():
m2 = list(a + b);
m2.sort()

EDIT: It seems like OP fixed this issue in perf.py, but left it in test.py
Flix looks interesting, the Java interop seem to be a great feature too, but I'm wondering if they'll have traction. The JVM already has Scala, and while it's not exactly the same thing it will be "good enough" for most people. Considering Scala has usually lots of churn and already a split ecosystem, plus the upcoming transition to 3, it's going to be hard to find a place. Especially since Java itself is gaining pattern matching, records and the like.
