Price is also a factor.

In the UK it is often faster take the train on some routes than driving it, but the price is often absurd. For the cost of a tank/half a tank of petrol (£20-50) Vs potentially hundreds for a train ticket.

E.g. London to Newcastle is about 280miles. By train I just got quotes for £320 return tickets. I could get there and back in perhaps 1.5 tanks of petrol (approx £60-70) in my hybrid, but will take about an 30mins longer by car (4 hours Vs 4.5 hours)

Thanks but no thanks.
I'm in NZ but would gladly take a train (no passenger rail on my island), time spent driving is time I usually can't charge for (eg general sales), and even where I can it's still hours that I can't design. It'd be worthwhile even if it was 10 % slower than driving.

If it's a high speed rail line at some distance it becomes faster to go by rail. Even slow rail. I once took the train from Glasgow to London and it was about 5 hours. Same drive I think is 7 hours.

Personally I like to remind myself when I'm driving that every one taking mass transit isn't on the road with me.
Unfortunately this aspect is missing from the discussions about race in the US. You can be born and raised in a poor family in Italy but after moving to the US you will be immediately recognized as a privileged white oppressor.
That doesn't really mesh with the "no productivity hit" arguments though. For all that knowledge workers resent the idea that being there at certain times has much impact on their output, in many vocations that's the plain and simple truth

It's not that big a deal doing it from scratch, but most users of Docker were already using it and have it setup to run as root. Undoing that is not trivial, definitely not as simple as just uninstalling and reinstalling rootless. You have to nuke your existing containers, images, and volumes, and depending on the package manager, it's not always obvious if uninstalling Docker will undo all the networking and user configuration changes it makes. Just out of curiosity, I uninstalled it on Arch right now and it didn't get rid of the docker0 virtual bridge device, it didn't remove the iptables rules, /var/lib/docker is still there with everything in it. The docker socket is still there, but I'm guessing that would go away if I rebooted, assuming the systemd unit creates that on login.
That's a very impressive achievement, but I think this is one of those classic examples of the post hoc fallacy, "I succeeded by doing this, therefore those who do this will succeed." That logic is unsound.
The state law doesn’t just prevent abortion.

It also punishes “aiding or abetting” abortion.

It’s very easy to see how online education about abortion aids abortion.
Or, and that seems more likely, they do not care about it, or even think that the page should not be at all readable on mobile devices.
To summarize, an article which re-summarizes an article from the BBC, where both articles bestow praise on the idea and don't bother giving a single shred of a voice to anyone that thinks it's a bad idea, or from anyone with an opposing viewpoint. Journalism at it's finest, just pure, biased, opinion pieces. Articles like these aren't meant to inform, they're just pure propaganda pieces used to seed and normalize the idea in the populace. Any opposing viewpoints? No voice.

As a hiring manager who has hired multiple engineers from these threads, here are some suggestions for everyone posting to this thread.

* For the location, please put the name of a place on the map, not a timezone. Different physical locations have different employment regulations, which does have a bearing on my ability to hire you.

* Please learn the HN formatting guidelines (https://news.ycombinator.com/formatdoc) and make your messages easy to read. In particular, you will need blank lines between each paragraph. Question for dang - given that this is a common mistake, is it worth changing the suggested format to include the blank lines?

* If you post the link to a PDF Résumé, please name the file with your name. You most likely will only have one resume, but the Hiring Manager has to download many resume.pdf files and distinguish between them.
maybe you need to get more flowers because you don’t seem to understand what they are

It is established through unceasing efforts of activists, who pushed for it, precisely in order to exploit the negative connotations of the word “theft” to describe something that is not what people typically associate with the notion of theft.

If you go with your friends to restaurant, with the understanding that you’ll pay the bill everyone will pay you their part, but one of them refuses to do so afterwards, would anyone call this “meal theft”? No. Your friend is still morally in the wrong, of course, it’s just not what “theft” is.
> But... "what about the children?" is a very important question to ask and shouldn't be used as a cliche to dismiss Apple's attempt to make the world a better place in this area.

I've never seen a single person ask this question in good faith. It never stops. Every single day we have a new crisis involving children and the solution is surveillance, more government control, less freedom, whatever.

Nothing but emotional manipulation. None of this will ever stop crime. None of this will ever undo the suffering already inflicted. All of this is mainly justified by the debatable notion that demand for CSAM causes child molestation, the actual crime authorities should be trying to prevent. Instead of doing that they use children in order to establish the surveillance tools needed for government oppression. Using children as a political weapon should be considered child abuse as well.

It doesn't matter what your employer would do it matters that you're legally entitled to it and a court would enforce it and have it paid to you.

Your private employer doesn't have the ability to define ownership. Governments, and by extension the judiciary, however typically are granted that.
It really does need to come from leadership. The last 2 places I've worked had basically no work after Thanksgiving and much of leadership did take off basically entire month of December.

Also we recently started having an occasionally Friday that everyone takes off same time. You don't have too but to make it easier that people who are often quite busy have an opportunity to not feel like things are getting behind. Over 90% participation(100+ people) in our group mental health day.

To give you the perfect example, I think all the types of people who were protesting (100% correctly) at the Occupy Wall Street movements have been completely neutered and neutralised with this woke movement in corporations.

These bankers and banks basically destroyed the american dream like no other person/corporation in history, they did more damage to minorities than any "white oppressor", yet they've basically been forgotten because activists types feel like they can make a difference by introducing trans issues into corporations.
No, you didn't. The same crooked billionaires are syphoning off even more cash, not to mention the government is now printing money for them to socialise their losses.

I have to congratulate these corporations, it's been the perfect divide and conquer tactic. Almost everyone's forgotten the 2008 crises, who caused it, and what damage it did.
There is an organizational gap. It's mostly everywhere, and why only DevOps can bridge that gap. It's caused by missing technical leadership.

I did some backtesting simulations that made leveraged investing look pretty awesome. The effective borrow rate for funds like spxl is crazy low, way better than if I were to borrow myself. (Also, fwiw I was pretty conservative and am overall only around 2x-leveraged.)

The internet is very opposed to leveraged investing imo, but I think most of the concerns are pretty dumb. There was this one blog post where this guy ran ten simulations of his own, most of which showed the leveraged portfolio doing comparably to the baseline, but one a couple showed it doing worse and one saw the leveraged portfolio 100x'ing or something... and he concluded that it wasn't worth it??

People will also appeal to volatility drag as a superficially sophisticated knockdown (in short, imagine all four two-step paths in which the market goes up or down by 10% at each step. Then the baseline market averages out to (.81 + .99 + .99 + 1.21)/4 = 1, and a 3x leveraged portfolio averages out to (.49 + .91 + .91 + 1.69)/4 = 1. Volatility drag is those two middle worlds where the leveraged portfolio does badly despite the market as a whole basically ending up where it started.

I support the good will in voluntary support for the arts.

But I don't think this works as an economic system for rewarding creators, given corporations really do not have an incentive to help others benefit from new font creation or other artistic expression, just because they have themselves.

It would be interesting to have a list of all kinds of products where licensing can be the biggest headache in using them. Then seeing if a common theme emerges that might suggest a fairer, more mentally efficient, licensing mechanism.
I get the impression the website isn’t being run by professionals.

As I mentioned, it promises not to contact you, and then asks the best time to contact you.

Not exactly high caliber user research going on there.

I also get the impression it’s more about get names they can hit up for donations.

Notice how it asks if the “reporter” is already involved in anti-abortion movement.

That’s probably to avoid duplicates when they add the name to their mailing list asking for money.

That highly depends. My company was acquired by a German parent and we now get unlimited PTO, yet I have not taken a vacation at all since last summer. When or whether you're able to, even if it's your legal right, is largely dictated by team rhythm and scheduling. I'll freely admit nobody is forcing me to never take a break, but it's hard when I know we'd fall behind (not exactly helped by the pandemic right now making it impractical to travel anywhere). If everyone was working a 4-day week, then me also working a 4-day week would be no problem.
Sure if you plan to pave over huge swaths of currently protected wilderness you can find more land. But there is no universe in which 280, 101, or 880 can be built to handle the extra demand that would cause. They couldn't adequately handle pre-pandemic traffic. And if you stick with SFH zoning that land would be gobbled up fairly quickly and we'd be in a worse version of our current situation.

There's an exceedingly obvious third choice, increase density. There's no reason for transit connected areas of a major city to be legally limited to single family zoning.
Because it is not a crime.

You can order whatever you want unless a payment is made and product accepted a legal transaction hasn't occured. Missed items, uncooked food, poor quality are common reasons not to accept and send back. You can decide to decline the transaction at any point.

What businesses do is make the person pay first. Rarely does a fastfood worker take my order.. stop.. makes my food and then asks me to pay. They take my money serve the next person, I wait to get called.

A drive through is different and they get very low rates of drivers ordering only to drive away.

Businesses have found a way to deal with this issue.

Swedish electricity production is essentially carbon neutral. There’s a 50/50 split between nuclear and renewables. At times, there’s imports from the European grid, which does include coal and gas &c, so by that accounting it may not be fully neutral. However, the mining industry is in the far north which has an abundance of cheap hydropower, so it’s probably true that the ore can be mined entirely using renewable energy in Sweden.
Manga vs. Comics: How the Base Influences the Superstructure
thanks for the vaguely xenophobic and mostly meaningless comment
I invented the term internal sacrificial biologically bound metabolic support in an attempt to describe the exact nature of the very specific fixed connection of a umbilical cord. Adjust the terminology to your liking, but anything short of a direct analog of a fixed, biological structure connecting the two persons in a host/dependent situation in which an act of agency would be necessary to sever it won’t be useful for the point of argument. I don’t know of any useful analog so this is why I think arguments around abortion should be had on their own terms without trying to draw on analogies.
I read that as "a man publicly dying" as in the sense of "public executions are a tenant of the religion", which did not make much sense to me.

Even specific to Jesus though, do other religions not have a prominent sacrifice in their history?
On another matter, I doubt GoDaddy cares if you collect PII, just not on its infrastructure.

I know people that worked at the pregnancy centers that get mocked. Those workers will often stay in contact with them well after the child is is born.

Serious pro-lifers will dedicate their lives to it, they care about the babies more than you can know.

This particular center was located in a Hispanic community, the church full of working-class people would give away hours and hours of their time and money to help all of them.

Also, in some cultures (Eastern Europe, I assume; Romania for sure) it's considered appropriate to gift an odd number of flowers (I never knew if it was about the actual flowers or how many stems?), as even numbers are associated with death and funerals, as you've mentioned.

That doesn't solve the issue, because the high rental rates are caused by limited supply due to NIMBYism. If you raise taxes on rental income rental rates will just go up and pass on costs to tenants. Rentals are highly inelastic.

The real solution is to densify and build way, way more. Why doesn't SF look like China with skyscrapers on every block?

I think it's in the middle. Even my wife isn't a fan of built in apps compared to a discrete external device.

I'd like to see more power efficient dumb tvs. My favorite TV is a 65" led tv that sips power. At the same time, I've read that manufacturers providing data on their customers helps subsidize lower TV prices, and in that case adding apps likely doesn't incur that much more cost.
I think you might've missed the second half of my question?

Is the prominent sacrifice of a person unique to the background of Christianity? I do not really understand the snarky replies.
Only the context was discussed not the details. In other words they could have been trying to order a cake saying “Happy Birthday“ to be used in a wedding for some in joke and the baker wouldn’t have known.

And in context a strait couple can’t have a gay wedding, the difference is inherently gender dependent thus making it a proxy. [edited for clarity]

To your point (I guess the downvotes are representing people's thoughts on Tesla),

Self-driving could still have a major impact like this without being the "fully-autonomous" version. Virtual routes can be developed with negligible infrastructure(sensors) compared to a trains requirements.

However, Amtrak has historically been a socialism that blue-collar towns are OK with participating in, so my guess is that this has more to do with giving government money to those people than solving any real transportation issue.
It seems like many parts of the Mac/Windows integration like the vsock proxying seem to be open source after all. While I would not want to create a docker desktop replacement it seems like a good idea to build on a tighter integration with the hypervisor.
Yeah, the demographic density argument fails to hold up to the fact that spending $6 trillion on high speed rail would have been much more beneficial to society than spending it on Iraq/Afghanistan.
Are you arguing in good faith? It is clear that the employer owes a debt to the employee as soon as the labor is performed per the labor agreement. The employee owns the debt. In theory they could sue to get that debt paid, in practice they probably can’t afford to.

> Instead the study shows that mask wearing combined with other factors have a clear and unquestionable correlation with reduce Covid spread.

The study shows that cloth masks (combined with other factors) have no effect on seroprevalence. It shows that surgical masks (combined with other factors) has a small-but-significant effect on seroprevalence. The confidence interval on the surgical mask group overlaps zero, so you can't rule out "no effect". At these small effect sizes, you also can't rule out the role of confounders -- it's possible that behavior change could explain all of it.

In short, neither result is "clear and unquestionable". An accurate description of the results are that they are "weak and debatable".
That is a nice fantasy to believe in

On a side note, I don't mean to be the bearer of bad news but I think you need a better plan than this, cairo has been in various states of inactivity and deep maintenance mode over the last several years, if anything more backends will be removed, not added. Also, cairo is an immediate mode-style renderer following the PDF imaging model made for print -- it's fundamentally the wrong approach for high performance rendering. You may not see much improvement even if it did have a Vulkan backend.
