I think GP isn't talking about energy used to perform an exercise, which (IMO) indeed comes from "a completely different place". I read their comment as talking about energy required to start doing an exercise, day in, day out. This, at least for me, comes from the same place as energy needed to start writing code at work, or to get out of the house and run and errand. Burnout happens when that energy source becomes depleted or unreliable.

Based on my experience (including lack of the ability to stick to any exercise regimen long-term), I second GP's post.

I also agree that doing exercises helps recover that second type of energy. It's a positive feedback loop - but the problem is, you won't be able to start it if you're too depleted on the "starting energy". Like with an ICE car - the engine does recharge your battery, but you won't be able to start it if the battery is already dead.

> On to the signs. "Posted, no trespassing" is an indication that bad things may happen if you jump a fence. Maybe all it is is getting arrested and charges pressed. Do signs like that make you feel unsafe?

No. Those suggest a normal, decent, measured response, rather than a spirit of escalation. A sign like "talk shit, get hit" would worry me though.

I think it might have been nice to _not_ vary the starting seed. Instead having each playthrough of the game start with the same mission name, but then vary wildly from there.
The trick is that the list of URLs for each word already is in the URLs file.

The URLs in a range are sorted. A sorted list (or list-range) forms an implicit set-like data structure, where you can do binary searches to test for existence.

Consider a words file with two words, "hello" and "world", corresponding to the ranges (0,3), (3,6). The URLs file contains URLs 1, 5, 7, 2, 5, 8.

The first range corresponds to the URLs 1, 5, 7; and the second 2, 5, 8.

If you search for hello world, it will first pick a range, the range for "hello", let's say (1,5,7); and then do binary searches in the second range -- the range corresponding to "world" -- (2,5,8) to find the overlap.

This seems like it would be very slow, but since you can trivially find the size of the ranges, it's possible to always do them in an order of increasing range-sizes. 10 x log(100000) is a lot smaller than 100000 x log(10)
Just witnessing firsthand what Intuit has done to TradeGecko in transforming it into “QuickBooks Commerce”. Really great API for interacting with, like, everything, deprecated and EOL’d in just under a year from now. Say your goodbyes to Mailchimp.

Turns out though, I end up being a NetSuite Expert due to their move.

Also, it's a fallacy to think the CPC simply ignores popular sentiment.

Blaming Trump for vaccine hesitancy is inaccurate and deceptive. Trust in media and government institutions is low.

If media and government institutions want to be taken at face value, then they should take their stated intentions at face value. An honest reckoning would involve examining how they lost the public's trust and what they can do to regain it.

Instead they lay blame, deflect responsibility, engage in partisanship and identity tribalism. This enables the current paradigm to continue via divide and conquer strategies. Either side of the divide forms a goal post. Both teams cry foul. The propagandists take their free-kick.

Although it is divorced from reality, I don't find the narrative weird. Effective might be a more accurate characterization.

If propaganda is necessary, then a need for effective propaganda follows. Therefore, a significant number of people must find these narratives credible. Otherwise they would not be effective. Propagandists would be sent "back to the drawing board".

RIP.

I, like many others here, started on a ZX Spectrum 48k. It was a wonderful time where one could experiment and "learn by doing". I spent days copying program code from a magazine into the REPL, and after debugging it for a while, i marvelled at the space invaders game i had "made myself".

It was also a time where local radio stations would dedicate a couple of hours every friday night to broadcast user made programs. Yes, that's right, 2 hours of "brrzzzziiiiwwwwwhhzzz". Before each program was broadcast, the radio host would give a small intro to what was being broadcast, and the computer needed to run it.

We had classes with no set agenda, where "nerds" could meet up, and we could code whatever we wanted.

The whole "world" was different back then, and looking back i can easily see how a generation of skilled engineers came to be.
Happened to me with the Hyperion CEO - "we're not selling, we are a billion-dollar company!", and the next month Oracle announced the acquisition.

Not that I was surprised. When it comes to strategies and mission, I just don't believe anyone in any position of authority in a company, from the CEO all the way to line managers. The only strategy is to make money, and if anyone at any time thinks they'll make more money doing the opposite of what they promised, they'll flip in a minute.

I do think this is a great tool, I didn’t intend to come off as being critical. I think I had some misdirected frustration from people on HN talking about how the modern web is bad and should be replaced with a text protocol. I aspire to create web apps that push the boundaries of what is possible today, and feel disappointed whenever I encounter people advocating for regression.

But I digress. In hindsight, my comment was obnoxious and under-appreciative of the tool being shared, and my rant was only tangentially related.
Looking at the comments people try to solve a problem that has a simple solution. We don't need to discuss if a given person post, comment should be reported or if FB should follow the report, etc. We have a simple solution, let FB/Twitter/Youtube stop removing posts/movies that does not violate the law.

I understand that a lot of people will see comments and posts from people they don't like, some of those comments might be mean, rude, etc. But that's the cost of becoming public person - in the old days public persons were actors, politicians, etc. Today anyone can become one.

And I don't buy the "noble" aim of the platforms to fight "misinformation", "hate speech", "conspiracy theories". There are so many examples of misinformation from "trusted" resources (e.g. covid vaccine efficacy [1], [2], Saddam Hussein nuclear weapon and so on) and so many conspiracy theories turned out to be true (starting from Watergate, through Iran-Contras to Snowden revelations) that as a society we would be much better without preventive censorship.

Above official "trusted" resources claimed 95% efficacy while in practice it turned out to be much lower [3], obviously because of "new variants", as if it was a big surprise that corona viruses are mutating (common knowledge from 1960-ties) and covid-19 is just one of them, so claim that vaccine will end covid-19 infections was very far fetched, delicately speaking (not using hate words like "lies" or "cheap PR to sell more vaccines").

As for "hate speech" no one is forced to post/comment on Twitter or FB and meeting people who are not nice is just a part of life. Kids at school has to tolerate colleagues (and teachers) they don't like and nobody cares, first caveman also liked less or more other cave inhabitants and had to live with that.
> and it's a bizarre insinuation that they don't exist

The problem is, if you carry this idea out to it's conclusion then it would be a rational act to jail someone merely for the thoughts they have; if we could in some way prove what they were thinking in a court of law.

> Mass shootings are preceded by ideations of committing a mass shooting [...] Dangerous ideas.

There are dangerous _people_ with the means to act upon these thoughts, but the ideas aren't exclusive to them. There are plenty of people who have such ideations but do not act upon them. People play FPS video games where these actions are not only thinkable but can be simulated. The idea itself clearly does not pose a danger to anyone.

> to accept that they exist is to approve of censorship

It's not censorship on a private platform I'm concerned with, as I've said it's the exceptional governmental and psychiatric injustices that become possible if you begin to accept this as a basic premise.

I think “unlimited” is a weird term. There are limits, because as an employee, you were hired to do a job. I think the proper term someone used was “untracked” which is more accurate. Internally the benefit is called “vacay your way”, which is really framing it as a very flexible vacation policy… which it truly is. As I posted earlier, it is really what you make of it, and those who do not use it loses it.
Australia doesn't have an independent foreign policy. This deal just shows who is in who's pocket. Australia has no choice because it can't defend itself. It has no military capability to defend against any enemy.

It means we Australians are destined to follow the US again into whatever conflict the US finds itself in. Because if we don't, we're on our own, and a very big (geographically) and soft target.

I’m trying to work out what is driving deaths by wind power. People falling from turbines during installation?
That's true. But I guess it could be handled by addressed by either the IPC invoker also placing the info on which process to wake into a BPF map before doing the blocking call, and the kernel code using the info to make the scheduling decision. That would however require an additional syscall per IPC. But maybe that informmation could be either cached or derived based on some other BPF visible state, so that it gets cheaper?

It would be completely pointless attacking the North. What, land in the north, then send their troops and tanks 3,000 km across a desert??
That's correct, you need to figure out where your target users hangout usually like Twitter, Facebook, Reddit etc and engage with them there. Find their problems and if they are facing the ones that you are solving, tell them about your solution.
Nuclear is also a hell of a lot safer than hydopower.

The failure of just a single dam - the Banqiao in China in 1975 - killed more than 150,000 people.

Way more than all the deaths from nuclear power, ever.

I’m quite tired of reading comments on HN that boil down to “nothing new to see here, why was this posted,…”

It’s reductive, boring, and not the goal of a discussion forum. There’s always interesting points to be made, as can be seen from the other comments that tried harder.
Looking through his various articles and profiles; I don't see any relevant language from the last 10+ years (Java, Python, JavaScript). He seems to have scratched C, C++ and C#, all of which are still in use, but he didn't really get into them? His history of learning "new tech" seems extremely modest. It seems I've had significant exposure to more languages and architectures in my University program than he had in his 30 year long career. And from the year of experience I've had, I can also tell that switching between languages and APIs is easy. So, maybe age-ism is a thing, but I'd also argue a lot of age-ism can be reduced to "I never even tried keeping up and hyper-specialized myself into a dying corner even when the signs became clear I'm becoming outdated, so why doesn't anyone hire me?"

Unpopular opinion (maybe): given the current situation, we should probably consider phasing out TLDs somehow. It's becoming more and more clear than no TLD outside those established before the '90s are actually viable for anything outside of "my small personal blog". It would also avoid people having to remember if the TLD is .net or .com, for instance (even though in my experience .net is slowly disappearing too).
The coup was attempted by military that were not happy with the way things were going in Algeria (i.e. France was losing it). They were not the only ones, and France was coming apart at the seams.

De Gaul, who had been out of power since 1946 when he resigned, understood that he could unify the country behind him, and "proposed" himself as a mr fixit. He obtained the support of the various generals he still knew from WW II, got himself elected by the French, and lead the country for another 10 years (during which he ended up getting out of Algeria)

He was always very sensitive of having the confidence of the French, and at several occasions made it clear that he would go if such-and-such vote would not work out. He resigned in 1969 after losing a referendum on some subject.

He was an extraordinary man, and must have been a serious PITA for the allies. If you want to read more, I recommend https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_General_(book)

Every kW of capacity in a nuclear plant that got shut down could instead have been used to burn less coal. Instead we replaced nuclear with renewables. I don't think that's the right order to do things if saving CO2 is the main objective.
Instead of focusing on SQL, focus on what can be done with an RDBMS with ACID properties and properly constructed data relations, constraints, and triggers.

You can not only make queries/views/etc, but you can also write transactions that make the changes, (ie the INSERT/UPDATE/UPSERT/DELETE) that are applied atomically, relying on the SQL "engine" (ie what they're building) to make sure that the relationships (foreign keys, constraints etc) are maintained.

If it's done right, then you can have the equivalent of an ODBC/JDBC driver for it and then use the ORM/framework of your choice to work with the schema.

I was under the impression that nuclear proliferation applies to nuclear weapons, not to nuclear power. In fact if you look at the list, most countries using civil nuclear power do not have nukes [1]. I assumed Australia was ideologically opposed to nuclear and I understand the French modified their subs to accomodate the Australians, not to not violate a proliferation treaty.
