I know in the energy industry how they’d feel about having fracking done on their land where they drank the well water, and the response was pretty universal, no problem, as long as they knew which companies were doing the work - they view the whole thing simply from a quality standpoint, reputable operators/service providers were going to produce a safe outcome, people cutting corners was where the risk was.
They are on minimum wage, not paying much if anything at all.

That's only a problem when savings exceed investment. In that case interest rates must simply drop until savings and investment are in balance again.

Why? Because the person who bought the lawn mower started saving the money he would usually spend on a gardener. It simply means saving is too profitable.
Okay dude.
The real question, to me, is why the early church elders thought that their parishioners would have any idea what the word meant.

My guess is the word was inserted deliberately to mystify. It wouldn't be the first time.

I disagree with literally all you said. Modules in the browser used not to exist until very recently. NodeJS/npm is a very decent ecosystem. It's not perfect, it's software. NodeJS explicitly strove to keep its standard library small unlike e.g. Python whose stdlib is also a huge legacy.
Yeah, becuase it is working out so well limiting the pool of politicians it to just grifters and conmen who were too shit to sell used cars for a living.
> I don't see this specific threadpool doing anything to optimize for the disparate core clusters of your threadripper, or to acknowledge the disparity between core clusters on the M1.

To do that efficiently you need to pin thread groups to cores based on having information of data usage.
This smells like over-optimizing architectures to me, if you want to go beyond separating stuff like hyper-threads on io.
Additional annoyance: There is no POSIX way to get hyperthreads and physical ones.
as you'll notice in my first reply to you I never said I did not want to know the base rate - what I said was - first quoting you

>whereas usually the denominator - which they neglect to mention - has rose proportionally, meaning there's nothing newsworthy there.

then in my reply to you

>there is not necessarily a reason to assume that the percentage of murder of activists is going to stay the same if you increase the number of activists, although it may be the case.

again, nothing about not needing to know the base rate, just noting that there might reasons for the rate of murders to not rise proportionally.

After writing something so straightforward that it might as well be observing that water is wet I've gotten a number of responses from people whom, just as straightforward, seem to want to inform me that the sun is out today and are intent on hammering it into my thick skull despite my never having said otherwise.

Lol the title sounds like Uber was ready to die on the "defending our workers" hill, when nothing could be further from the truth.
The correct title should be Uber loses battle to skirt existing laws, they were trying to exploit the workers beyond what is mandated by law.
In the us, they can call it disrupt, here it's called breaking the law.
Mc Donald's, every little fast food outlet is supposed to pay the social expenses, I hope Uber now got the message. Never use them ever, anywhere in the world precisely for that reason.
I think Solidity won out due to to the ease of developer adoption (unlike Vyper, it is object-oriented).

ETH2’s EVM replacement, EWASM, will use WebAssembly, so developers should be able to use saner programming languages than Solidity.

Star Wars is impossible to enjoy without a very generous suspension of disbelief, which is why I was practically offended by TLJ. It away full of cynical rug pulls that not only failed to reward, but actively punished, that suspension of disbelief. The first movie hinted at Rey's parents being somebody relevant, and the second movie doubles down on it, only to reveal that Rey was a "nobody" after all. It's like a magician making your $20 bill disappear and it never comes back.

Node.js creator created DENO because he thought relying on NPM was a terrible mistake. If even the creator of Node.js said that, then he knows that a bunch of grifters profited from the bad choices made back then.
This is why vaping may actually be a good alternative.

It's just nicotine and food-grade VG/PG/flavor.

The "vaping lung" illnesses seemed to center around THC vape oil made from Vitamin E acetate which caused the damage. Not nicotine vapes.

It is difficult to foresee the practical implication of these changes. Discussion about fairness notwithstanding, Apple‘s economic model had it’s simple elegance.

Frankly, I hope that they will decide to take the cut to their revenue and continue to operate the store at a lower profit, maybe even reducing the „tax“ to 10% across the board. This will be a hit to the shareholders, but who cares (I say it as a shareholder) at it will ensure that the ecosystem stays healthy. Apple should take this as an opportunity to improve the App Store instead of resting on their laurels. Also, I think the growth of the Mac business will more than offset the loss of the App Store revenue.

Adam Smith was not an idealist. Your quotes don't conflict with the fact that he also proposed revenue taxation, whether he meant progressive revenue taxation or not is still controversial though.
I'm not super knowledgeable in this area, but one possibility is that the "9 of the 5" only gives the number of times that it predicted that there would be a recession. There could be many more times that it accurately predicted that there would not be a recession.
I think that Covid will have been proven to come out of Chinese virus lab. Which doesn't sound as a crazy conspiracy theory right now, but for a time during 2020, was suppressed just as the conspiracy theories you've listed.

Have you considered a possibility that may be, the outright idiotic conspiracy theories that you're talking about don't actually have that much supporters, and could be used as scrape-goats to excuse the censorship and information control which would actually be targeted at much less insane stuff?

It's actually not like that. More rabbits means just a bit fatter wolves and not for long. Check Google for "r/K selection".

Wolves prefer to raise better quality of offspring, not more. Rabbits on the other hand just raise more offspring and don't care much for them since food is plenty.
If there is another proposal for partial application then it doesn't make sense to have a special version of it inside the pipe operator.

In fact with that knowledge we can go back and say even if there was no partial application proposal you should still not have it being part of another proposal so that it can be properly introduced later instead of being burdened with backward compatibility

Hi, there's someone who did a talk at microconf that could be useful to you (PullReminder): https://youtu.be/t_uSYaInXxk

All the best,
Well C packages are usually just libraries you install with a distro's package manager. Distros (distributions, e.g. Linux distributions) are mainly an effort to integrate many programs and libraries into a usable complete OS, the package manager of a distro is solving the purpose of a "package manager" that would often be designed for a specific language but for C programs as well as C++, or anything else they wanted a package for in their distro.
The problem is that it's completely a company's decision to make it easy to cancel and the vast majority of them make it as hard as they can.

Just a few examples: Xbox Live, you can sign up online but to cancel you have to call them and justify to them why you don't want to use their service anymore. Also had to do that to cancel a credit card recently. I've heard its even worse with companies like Adobe or like you mentioned, news publications.

As a customer, because of our bad consumer protection laws it makes me very hesitant to start a subscription with a new company and I vastly prefer doing it through Apple if I can.

With Apple, it's easy to see when you have a subscription active and to stop it from auto renewing. If cancel flows are getting easier it's probably due to pressure from this existing.
Yes.

I've seen it first hand in other industry. (some) Lawyers are always willing to litigate since this is their job. They dont care if you will win or lose, they just want your money. Obviously the "good lawyer" should advice you when not to litigate, but since cases take years, managers switch jobs (exactly as described in the article) and some bullshit excuses can be made - nobody really checked their success ratio.
In fact, is there a study in effectiveness of those lawsuits? They probably earned some money due to chilling factor, but was it higher than cost of litigation? Probably yes as well, but the author barely even touches this subject.

The situation is often even more pervasive in IT projects - where I have seen multiple cases of consultants paid by the hour, what translated to zero incentive to actually ever finish anything. They wont kill the golden goose that lays them golden eggs.
If I didnt know the decision makers (who have MBAs - so supposedly not random people), I would suspect collusion - getting kickbacks from the consultants to keep them on (who probably spend their days doing side projects for other customers). But no, it was sheer incompetence.

There are lots of people who dont care if their job makes sense or not - they will litigate/write code/do whatever as long as you pay them. They are supposed to advise you when their services are not needed, but then it might mean that they lose jobs / money, so they dont have any incentives for that.

Sadly I guess the theme of this submission is that "hacker news is stupid", so if anyone points out a flaw in the article, they will get downvoted to oblivion. Because the author is much smarter than us and obviously their article is flawless.

Also companies dont waste millions on fruitless projects /s
Most companies dont even make any retrospectives into their projects, probably because so many fail.
Well, how about China themselves blocking much of their rivals' links ? ;)
The commenter I replied to said "It (the number of activists) has everything to do with it". That is pretty strong language to me. I infer from that the commenter wanted to suggest that the number of activists is the only factor that matters because we can assume that murder-rate would remain constant.

If I am making the wrong inference here then I put it down to the strong and yet imprecise language of "it has everything to do with it".
Is it really a "value judgement" to draw a distinction between complete and abridged editions? All complete editions include the Apocrypha; abridged editions generally omit it, and often more than just the apocrypha – abridged editions frequently omit the introduction written by the original translators, and also their dedicatory epistle to King James I. And that is what makes the Oxford World Classics edition among the "most accurate" – the fact that it is complete and unabridged. The only way to be more accurate is by going for a facsimile edition – facsimile editions are available, but the original unaltered typography and spelling can make them quite a challenge for the modern reader. By contrast, a complete and unabridged edition such as Oxford World Classics uses modern spelling and typography, but (unlike abridged versions) does not omit any significant component of the original text.

Is it wrong to insist that we reserve the title of a work for its complete and unabridged editions, or at least view them as preferentially deserving of that title? There is nothing stopping anyone from publishing an abridged version of Tolstoy's War and Peace, and indeed at least one abridged English translation of it has been published (and it would not surprise me if abridgements in other languages, including the original Russian, were available as well) – but let us not pretend that an abridged version of War and Peace is the same as the original, or deserving of being passed off as it unmarked – and suppose that abridged versions of War and Peace ended up being printed far more than unabridged versions were, would it then make sense to argue that "Tolstoy's War and Peace" (without further qualification) now referred to an abridgement instead of the complete original? But, if one objects to that, does not the same logic demand that one object to abridged versions of the KJV being presented as "the KJV" without further qualification? A complete and unabridged edition of a work is more deserving of its title (without qualification) than an abridged and incomplete edition, and that applies no matter what text we are talking about.
Nope, folks didn't invent higher-level programming languages (the first of which was arguably Fortran, see case in point [1]) because they wanted their code to run slower.

In fact, if “fast” is the most important requirement we'll probably write it in Fortran or C++. With C++ you just have to know which parts not to use.

Can you name a single better package manager functionally comparable to npm? Delegating the whole packaging system to its own world is indeed questionable. However, in the context of node it works very well because it is designed with npm in mind. As for your corporate grievances—-managing a packaging ecosystem is a huge maintenance and cost burden. You have to host the packages, provide CMS, deal with abuse, security, user complaints and all the other nonsense. These are inevitable things with a centralized package manager. If you don’t like it, there’s always the git way.

Some people do care about authenticity though, hence the genesis of the OP's work to try and authenticate and it's why people still read news papers vice trusting their clickbait Google "news" feed. I'm just saying that I'd trust some encryption cert (whatever it is) traced back to a known more reputable source (say Financial Times and the like) than an algorithm that is just guessing that a photo/video is an un-altered genuine original vice a fake.

The challenge is establishing an author's credibility in the first place. If I trace a cert back to joe schmo off the street or some empty front business, then I'd probably not trust the content.

Arguably the halting problem is just a subset of Godel where every theorem is "This does or does not halt". Someone's written a paper going the other way: https://www.andrew.cmu.edu/user/avigad/Teaching/halting.pdf

The crucial trick is that you can plug in an entry as data to another "program/theorem". This is extremely interesting, because there are limited logics and limited computation models where Godel and the Halting Problem do not apply.

Not so sure about the diagonal argument.

One single text file per year named journal<year>.md in Markdown edited in an always-open window of a text editor (VSCode) throughout the day. Oldest entry is at the top, newest is at the bottom. To-do items are below the newest entry so that I they are always visible. For me the most convenient thing is that I can use the editor's search feature to find things.

There's no specific format (no tags, for example). There is just a new heading for each work day: "## Sep 13, 2021 Mon". I also don't go crazy with Markdown syntax. I very rarely render the Markdown. It's mostly bullet lists, code blocks and links to other files. My text editor allows me to click the links without rendering Markdown.

The file is located in a directory called work_journal. Content that is linked from journal<year>.md is broken up into directories: diagrams, images, logs, projects.

I do have a few other files that are project or tech-specific: tech_xyz.md, project_xyz.md, but those are edited infrequently and, once created, mostly used for reference. I also have a few temporary files called scratchpad.md and commit.md. Scratchpad is for quick pastes from logs and need to be massaged between systems and commit.md is a running edit of the Git commit message for stuff I'm working on.

The major downside is that the file is really only editable on one PC. I don't trust the enterprise sync solution I have available to me, and I certainly don't want this kind of info in the cloud. Thankfully it is very rare that I have a need to edit the file from another computer.
For the company it costs more money, but for the employee, you are way better being employed than contractor.

This is not a surprise, this extra money is effectively bringing the employee health insurance, pension, invalidity pension, unemployment benefit, maximum number of hours to work per week, paid vacations, etc.

If you need to pay it out of your pocket, it turns out to be the same.

In the "old" Europe, the net salary is basically 50% of the cost for the company, sometimes a bit more, sometimes less depending of marital status, country, etc. But this is a good rule of thumb.
Those "search by description" links reveal a strange problem with the index:

1. Search for "monitor": https://rom1504.github.io/clip-retrieval/?back=https%3A%2F%2...

2. Note that there are several results with AOC model E2260SWDN.

3. Click the search button beside one of them.

4. Note that none of the results contain "E2260SWDN". Searching for "E2260SWDN" by itself is the same.

The back button doesn't work in this interface either. The URL changes, but it doesn't actually show that previous search.

I also wanted to add, I think a lot of the value that Apple adds should actually be things that are regulated by our government. For example, you should be able to cancel a service the same way you signed up. And a lot of the privacy stuff Apple does should be enshrined into law.

It's pleasant as a consumer that at least one company operates this way, but it's terrible that most people don't even consider that our government should be the one doing this, not private companies.

> My point is I shouldn't have to download a package or write a multipart request parser to manage files sent to a http server.

Honestly, how many languages ship something like a multipart parser with the core API? And to be frank, I don't think I'd like the language I'm using to do this, only ~30% of my projects touch web-related stuff anyways.

> Someone made a profit out of that stupid situation with a terrible package manager, NPM, all by design.

I agree that NPM/NPM Inc is horrible, but for lots of other reasons. Also don't think it was on purpose, just poor and rushed design.

> Node.js creator himself said that relying on NPM was a terrible mistake, that's why he went on creating DENO.

So? Doesn't mean he is right, who knows what have happened with NPM? Maybe NodeJS would never have taken off in the first place. Brendan Eich also apparently doesn't like gay people, does that mean every JS developer needs to think like him?
