LEADERSHIP LAB: The Craft of Writing Effectively

Do you worry about the effectiveness of your writing style? As emerging scholars, perfecting the craft of writing is an essential component of developing as graduate students, and yet resources for honing these skills are largely under utilized. Larry McEnerney, Director of the University of Chicago's Writing Program, led this session in an effort to communicate helpful rules, skills, and resources that are available to graduate students interested in further developing their writing style.
OK I had fun with this with my young one, but why is it so hard to start with a blank canvas? Can't figure out how to start with a blank slate.

But even more annoying is that it uses localStorage for what you've created. To completely start over, I had to run localStorage.clear(); in the console.

This is a lot of fun, but a couple of small tweaks would make it a lot better (or easier to figure out).
Jestor looks great!
I hope you guys don't wait for ages until you put a heavy focus on product performance. Notion waited way too long with this and it was a great turn off to adopt the product. I've just tried out your project management template and it already feels slow. Please think early about query optimizations and caching on client & server-side. It a major competitor advantage from UX perspective.

Wage theft is the #1 fraud[0] in the US. So while the voluntary contract can be a win-win for a quite a few Americans it is still exploitative.

This confusion is common amongst people who haven't lived in abroad. Visa status, work permits, future intentions, work contracts and citizenships are all separate things and most countries weigh more than one factor to determine tax-residency.

In this example, the operative bit is this:

> She has a one-year contract, after which she plans to tour China, [...]

This time-boxes her intentions for living abroad. It's distinct from having an unlimited work contract with a temporary visa that requires renewals, which indicates intent to stay abroad (and potentially a basis for the visa renewals).

Other countries use things like a point system (UK), definitions of "centre of life" (Russia, where I live atm) and so on. Either way, Australia doesn't do the thing that the US & Eritrea do (tax applicability solely based on citizenship).

They intentionally shoved COVID positive patients into nursing homes full of vulnerable elderly while simultainiously rejecting the large-scale help offered by the Fed. There's no grey area here, just pure evil. They did the same in PA too, the PA Health Secretary even removed his mother from a nursing home before implementing this policy.

Having written an int62_t class in C++ last year, I now feel I should return to it and verify that the bitshift version I wrote is faster than this. I mean, it's written in Rust, which apparently is the new hotness, so I should really make sure, right?

I agree with the comments that point out that not knowing about shift operators isn't really that surprising, but believing you have a reason to want 42 bits of a 64 bit value without knowing about shift operators is.
Esperanto is a hobby language for upper-middle class people in developed countries. It isn't anyone's "own language".
Thanks for the great post. Indeed, as a former scientist myself, I can say you have to take everything you read with a grain of salt. I've seen inside the sausage factory, and concluded that YMMV.

> The other thing I would love to see solved is how you would add git style conflicts into a crdt. The best effort merging strategy of most OT & CRDT systems is fine for real-time editing but it isn’t what you want when merging distant branches.

I found this comment very interesting. I have been playing with the idea of 3-way merging CRDTs, similar to the git approach. Have even used this type of branching in commercial software I work on for handling concurrent changes to files.

Be very interested to know if any efforts are being made on this in the CRDT community. (I'm more of an interested onlooker. I use a lot of the same concepts in my software, but not rigorously.)
Okay but if you recall with kavanaugh, left wing insurrectionists were storming the supreme court building.

I only read up to the paywall, but I think a more truthful title would be "Countries around the world overtaking USA in vaccination rate". Tells the truth and still is catchy enough. Plus, it is in tune with the article, which doesn´t claim Americans got un-vaccinated.
Off topic, but I used to have "learn every regex operator" in that category but, after I actually did, I've been amazed at how often regex operators come in handy.
This article is completely inane. What is the value of Amazon and of Netflix?
Umm. Usually it's not slander/libel. It's easy to find shit to throw at each other. That's why it unhelpful, because it doesn't help giving people a model with real predictive power.
It's a cost worth paying as it provides the "cover" for the actual influence.

"Everything is aboveboard, the lobbyists we hired are just that good."
Also, lots of us taxes are hiding in plain sight as "mandatory services". "Gated Community" is basically a different version of social transfer tax. Health system is another huge "mandatory tax". Enormous debts to complete education, whos equivalent you can get for free in europe. If you sum it all honestly up, the us is a pretty bad deal.
gotta hit the eraser and use the dynamite!

But I guess if you hadn't used kid pix you might not know that.
That's not an uncommon belief - feel free to write an extra check to your tax department and they will happily accept it. Normally tax departments have a whole system set up to accept voluntary additional tax payments for anyone who feels inclined to top up their contribution to the wellbeing of the state.

This is for the average person. For the super rich, America or Japan are probably the places to get top medical care.
> The risk of not getting the vaccine vastly outweighs any potential risk of getting the vaccine.

Read again and think a little about this statement. First, it is biased: risk of getting vaccinated is "potential", but the other risk is not denominated this way. Second, this risk comparison is obviously not true for every person.

In fact, both risks are individual and depend on several factors and weights of those factors, and those weights depend on person's values. You didn't mention data you are basing this statement on and for which combination of those factors and weights it is true.

Also, besides the risk analysis, getting the vaccine is a political decision for many people. Most people I know got it to avoid repression from state and to get preferential treatment from authorities when travelling. Other people refuse the vaccine because they don't trust the source, the evangelist and the administrator.

You can't mandate or dictate people's political stances nor medical treatments. That's a definition of totalitarian power.

> Meanwhile thousands more die from not getting the vaccine.

You meant to say some people died because they refused the vaccine and then got killed by COVID. Yes this is sad but those people died as free people.

Citizenship by investment (CBI) is even cheaper in the Caribbean. Interestingly people from mainland China and the Middle East hit the Caribbean first for this. I don’t think it’s a stretch to say that the reasons haven’t changed.
> get insanely wealthy off the backs of Americans

I find it a bit startling to see this sentiment on HN, a site that used to be mostly full of people building startups, attempting to get wealthy by building something useful that people are happy to pay for.

Well, the law of large numbers makes it understandable.
Humans can ignore the desync between audio and video to about -125 ms to +45 ms. Ideally you don't want to be off by more than a frame or two though.

If the desync goes out of these bounds then watching someone speak becomes uncomfortable.
Since this algorithm presumably runs on-device, I am sure it won’t be long before someone has reverse engineered it…

That's how influential he is. Even some rules can bend according to their will. It is not a surprise as other influential figures are doing this on multiple occasions.
I did. Almost all government adjacent forms ask you to specify your race. There's even a standard one when you get hired somewhere. There is almost always a 'decline' option, for whatever that is worth.
Super cool stuff!

While I had seen how it's made on... How It's Made - they show non-spherical cores[0], I hadn't known about the "Smooth Operator" as a benchmarking tool before competition. One of those industry things that are obvious once I know it, but semi-surprised to learn.

Have you ever had the impression that special interests are much more interested in copyright violations than child pornography? Or that it might extend to memes that sabotages carefully crafted propaganda? I do have that impression a lot.

I don't step in the lowest parts of the internet hell, but I am also not very picky about it. I have never encountered child pornography in 10 years of almost pathological internet usage.
This is amazing. I just forward it to my SO and we probably will try it.

We've been shopping weekly at a supermarket groceries store, think like Giant, Hypermart, or Lulu Hypermarket. We realized even though the experience is fine, this is not ideal. There are million small merchants that rely on daily income to be able to feed their family, so my purchases could be significant for them.
The reports you linked measure "access and equity and outcomes" - i.e., averaged cost-effectiveness for people who rely on popular insurance programs, rather than paying out of pocket.

US scores poorly in those due to high sticker prices; the quality available for those who can afford is the best in US; both for specialist rare cases and for mundane cases.
Modern bowling balls help a lot for strikes to be sure but a larger influence is the oil pattern on the lanes. Most places use a "house pattern" that looks like a "Christmas Tree" in that the oil pattern is nearly across the lane near the bowler and taper to a point in the center as it gets down the lane.

This pattern helps the bowler a lot since shots that are thrown out too far (pushed) encounter a dry lane surface earlier and the ball can begin to find traction on the lane sooner so it has time to roll over and make its way into the pocket. Likewise if the shot is "pulled" the ball will skid on oil for a longer time before it finds traction and can roll over and thus have a better chance of finding the pocket and still maintain some angle to give a good chance of a strike.

Professional bowlers do not use a "house shot" and in fact have multiple different oil patterns they use to make it more challenging. In general, a "reverse block" style pattern is used which means it is oily near the gutters and dryer near the center meaning imprecise shots are penalized harshly. But your typical bowling league doesn't have any incentive to use these types of oil patterns because everyone would be awful and not want to bowl there anymore and take their team to another house where they can score and enjoy themselves and delude themselves into thinking they could go pro.

This is believed to have had a negative effect on professional bowling popularity as a spectator sport as many recreational bowlers roll high scores because of the easy shot and modern ball tech and aren't interested in watching pros who don't appear to be much better.

I think gp was referring to how capital gains aren't taxed until realized. Having billions in unrealized gains gives you influence, even though you didn't yet pay tax on it.

However, when you relinquish your citizenship you pay an exit tax which is more or less equivalent to what you'd pay if you sold all your assets and paid gains taxes, so I'm not sure how this move really helps billionaires, except that they don't have to pay taxes on future gains.
Most western countries have better healthcare system than the US, New Zealand included.

If you're 'poor'. If you're rich it's an entirely different situation. And I think it's fair to classify Larry Page as rich.
Arguably, the majority of those who are unvaccinated are also the ones who don't want you wearing the mask...

So why is anyone supporting this?
>The billionaire had reportedly been based on an outlying Fijian island during the Covid-19 pandemic.

> As far as I know, in most countries, acquiring permanent residence requires living in the country for years first and then applying, so you will be on time-limited visas until then.

I joined a US-based Company who organized my Green Card without me having ever been there.

As long as your intention is to migrate to a different country you're regarded as a non-resident in which case you wont have to pay taxes on worldwide income, unlike in the US.
This. Living (even partially) overseas as someone who was born in the U.S. has so many disadvantages. The U.S. is the only country in the world that imposes global tax. Not only that, taxes are really complex and cost a fortune to file if you have overseas assets. Now, add to that that I cannot sign up for many bank accounts or other financial institutions because they don't accept U.S. customers - they don't want to deal with IRS filings either. It's not about tax evasion. It's just a huge pain being an American that owns property and spends a lot of time overseas.

At some point, depending on how much time you spent overseas and how many assets you own, the benefits of giving up US citizenship start to outweigh the cons. And it's better to do this soon than later because exit tax is a thing.
I like the way you spell "ultrarich".
The snippet looks made up. It requires a programmer skilled enough to understand iterators and compose them in a rather complex operation, but not skilled enough to know about shifts or look for “bitwise operators rust” on Google.
James 5 1-6 came to mind.
The contention on account sharing is "robbing companies of revenue". It is not related to additional costs imposed on companies due to account sharing. A non-negligible number of people engaged in account sharing are enjoying real value from the service(s) they are not paying for and would pay for if they could not account share. Hence account sharing enables the loss of potential revenue. As stated in another reply, if a company sees value in allowing customers to share accounts, they can build provisioning mechanisms that align with their TOS as Netflix has done.
This depends. If you have insurance, the US provides some of the best care on Earth.

The average US HN user has better care than the average HN user from elsewhere because we gainfully employed techs have decent insurance.
If there were long term side effects, do you think they would show up in a few months?

Perhaps not. But, again, does anybody have any particular reason, including even a theoretical justification, for believing there will be "long term side effects?" Given that the actual vaccine material is eliminated from your system in a matter of days, leaving behind only anti-bodies that were produced by your body?

I mean, sure, one can play the "anything is possible" card, but that is the same card that lets one claim that we are living in The Matrix, or that there is an invisible teapot in orbit around the Sun somewhere between Earth and Mars.

Sure, act like the vaccines have been around forever.

I'm not.

You are revealing your age.

I'm pretty sure you're wrong about that, and even if I were, what does my age have to do with anything?

My point was, and remains, that nobody has put forth anything by way of either actual evidence, or a plausible theoretical argument, that seems to justify any strong belief in as-yet-unseen long term side effects of the various vaccines.
Sounds like a great way to train all the locals to run red lights from 11pm-5am or so.
I would recommend "non" instead of "post" but otherwise agreed.
Well, it has native speakers: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Native_Esperanto_speakers
You could do worse than to read the wikipedia page about vaccines, which has this passage:

"Vaccines can be prophylactic (to prevent or ameliorate the effects of a future infection by a natural or "wild" pathogen), or therapeutic (to fight a disease that has already occurred, such as cancer)."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vaccine
It is indeed rhetoric, but the underlying difference of opinion that is being highlighted is the agency that is being denied.

We are not disagreeing on the benefits of a practice ( vaccination or taking a nap ).
Not at all. Here we have a manufacturer that thinks he would be allowed to scan the contents of your machine. If you scan a machine, you can read everything on the machine.

You would only be flagged if the photos (' hashes) were added as part of some investigation right? So you only have to fear for your criminal record in the event that an actual criminal gets ahold of your indecent (in their hands!) photographs. In which eventuality you might be (relatively to not, but still leaked) glad they'd been discovered and arrested etc. assuming your good name could be cleared.

Just playing devil's advocate, my gut (and I think even considered) reaction is in alignment with surely just about the whole tech industry: it's over-reach (if they're not public images).

Er, if you found my previous post criticising his behaviour, you should have found the article I cited previously.

Here is the article link again: https://selamjie.medium.com/remove-richard-stallman-appendix...

Specifically, here is one of many accusations in that article:

> When I was a teen freshman, I went to a buffet lunch at an Indian restaurant in Central Square with a graduate student friend and others from the AI lab. I don’t know if he and I were the last two left, but at a table with only the two of us, Richard Stallman told me of his misery and that he’d kill himself if I didn’t go out with him.

> I felt bad for him and also uncomfortable and manipulated. I did not like being put in that position — suddenly responsible for an “important” man. What had I done to get into this situation? I decided I could not be responsible for his living or dying, and would have to accept him killing himself. I declined further contact.

> He was not a man of his word or he’d be long dead.
I'm confused by the negativity here. The guy's child is not okay. Me being a nobody could get a special visa to visit Germany from India on requesting.

Of course, if someone wants to visit a country for an HCP of their choice they should be allowed to.
Can you please stop spamming these threads with the same inane comments over and over again? You are littering.
