Like most features that Google releases, I believe that they use them to train their algorithms and once they get enough human input on a feature from people using it, they remove the feature and turn it over to the machine. We see it on the SEO side all the time. Release a feature, call it a ranking factor, thousands of SEOs jump all over it. The algo learns and then the features importance is removed. NoFollow links are a great example of this.
Many things are upsetting to many people. I don't think it's viable to always bow to demands of your most strident members. Chapelle is a dissenter, I think he has as much a right to express his opinion as other provocateurs. We've had shows from Netflix which border on child exploitation and skate somewhat close to CP. So, why would this be out of line?

I watched it and it was biting but wasn't hateful. It questioned certain things. Maybe there was some jealousy and usurpation (in general terms taking over the focus of civil rights).

Chapelle is charismatic and steadfast. It would do no one any service to try to disparage him as I think that would backfire given the reach of his audience.

Is this actually useful? Not that it doesn't do exactly what they say it does, but a lie detector isn't super useful when every word out of a CEO's mouth is a lie by default.
I am very aligned with what you said but when it comes to shipping shell scripts (say sysops stuff, init, cron, ..) I tend to stick with the ksh/bash ecosystem mainly due to more tooling (shellcheck, shfmt, bats/bash_unit).

Most things that works in bash obviously works fine in zsh, but as the article very eloquently points out - lots of gotchas.
What about an authority that could price negative externalities into the goods as they were discovered? I think there are extremely high challenges around enforcing this globally, and resisting the pressure from industries that are impacted, but it would seem to be the least disruptive in terms of modifying the fundamentals of our existing capitalist system.

Yeah sounds like the best solution is explicit checks that the compiler understands - REDUNDANT_NULL_CHECK(...), REQUIRED_NULL_CHECK(...).

I mean obviously the solution is to use a sane language but you know...
But if you continue, you’re dead or get a bad health/psycho condition. I think that 1) people should not start what they cannot afford in some reasonable term (including cars, family, kids, etc; i.e. living on the edge), 2) societies should stop to welcome this life style on all levels. I have many examples around when people started their “life” thinking that it all will sort out later. It never did.

This all stems from the social hypocrisy about what you can or cannot do. We are living in cities, not in the woods, and sometimes we cannot use our basic rights without strings attached. Yes, start your family, rent a house, buy a car, go for it. And smile yes-sir to the smirking sociopath who wipes his dirt on you because you’re on his hook and there is no turning back. It’s like an enslaving conspiracy, but on a “nod to each other” level.

people will put their health in second place a lot of times if there are other problem

Only because there is no other way to live their life. They may not live it, or may live it like that. There is usually no third option for the masses, except for a few exceptions.
The outburst insight here seems promising. Gen-X people want real-world activities to do with their millennial relatives that are engaging to both. I'm in that situation myself. I struggle with arranging such activities, and I'd be happy to fork out real money for curated, guided shared experiences that connect with both generations.

The next step would be for the founders to start personally arranging such activities and see what works and which parts are hard.
A naive approach.
Time zones is not that simple. Many timezones have 15, 30, or 45 minutes offset (additional to the hour).

If I get time and date in UTC, I know when the meeting is supposed to start. If the time is 12:45 UTC and the meeting is at 16:00 I quickly know that the meeting starts in 3 hours and 15 minutes. Not that easy with M:45 and P:45

I do not like this.
I see. From the other comments, I'd say at least in Spain it works like in Italy, and it is best described by the first sentences of the two Wikipedia articles:

All Saints' Day, also known as All Hallows' Day, Hallowmas, the Feast of All Saints, or Solemnity of All Saints, is a Christian solemnity celebrated in honour of all the saints of the church, whether they are known or unknown.

All Souls' Day, also known as the Commemoration of All the Faithful Departed and the Day of the Dead, is a day of prayer and remembrance for the souls of those who have died, which is observed by Latin Catholics and other Christian denominations annually on November 2.
Ok but what is the tail risk here. Can you outline a series of causal steps where a molten salt reactor will cause more than 100,000 to 500,000 deaths? If you're just saying that perhaps maybe there will be 2,000 deaths, well that's still an incredible safety profile compared to the number of deaths caused by other energy sources.
You can buy a phone with the same spec as an iPhone for an eighth of the price. You can buy a car that goes from A-B for a fraction of the price of your Porsche. Those selvedge RRL jeans you like for 269 - Uniqlo do a version for 35. Is that Michelin star really better than Domino's? That is a lot to spend on just a phone, something to get you from A-B, something to cover your legs, something to fill you up, etc etc.

She sort of addresses it in the sentence that ends: "...and might be more likely to attract higher power men who are looking to “unlock” something they feel few other people have seen – your nudity."

I guess it's like anything. Things with a higher price feel more exclusive and we desire the things we can't have. If you can afford it, why would you skimp? If it's less affordable - maybe you'd prefer it to feel like an experience (at least in your own head) rather than 'one nut'?!
ah sorry, that's CET (not CST) to CEST. That's Europe Central Time to Europe Central Summer Time. I believe we better off using UTC only.

Good furnace produce little particulate emission so its almost on par with burning gas.

Biomass - so mostly wood, wicker or straw has all its carbon content coming from the air - they capture CO2 as they grow, when you burn them you release exactly the same amount of CO2, hence they're carbon-neutral.
Quick estimate: amazon retail had about about 8 billion in operating income for the six months ending in just [0] so estimate 16 billion a year. They also had 1,335,000 employees [0]. At least for the US, their starting pay is $18 an hour [1]. 18 * 40 * 48 is $34,560. If we assume 1 million of those are front line workers, just doubling their pay would increase their costs by 34 billion dollars putting them in the red by 18 billion dollars a year. Obviously pay varies by location so not a perfect estimate.

Joe Rogan also commented on this cover-up a few days ago:

Amazing how even raising this as a question gets you downvoted.

Yes, I’m sure it’s a factor, and needlessly so considering the vaccine seems to have a negligible effect on transmission.

The bit about trans women is unfunny and hurtful and should remain on Netflix. Trans employees should walk out and protest, then decide whether they have the means / network to move on if they don’t want to work there anymore.

I don’t think controversial or offensive-to-me content should be removed. But I also don’t think it should go by unremarked. That’s what democracy is, at the ground level.

Keep in mind that Netflix streams the moving Cruising (1980), widely considered offensive on release and linked to a number of gay bashings back then. True, Netflix didn’t produce that (as it did this comedy special) but at the end of the day, it doesn’t make much of a difference. Comedy is sometimes offensive. Chapelle has an outdated view of trans issues but doesn’t call for violence, which is Netflix’s line.
Short answer: yes.

Longer answer: assuming there is no direct coercion, like a trafficker ring/pimp involved, I fail to see how this kind of struggle is any different than the single parent working night shifts at WalMart who still needs food stamps to feed the family. Or the low wage worker going to a factory each day ripping chickens apart so you can have your chicken breast and chicken nuggets.

If your theoretical mom can make a living that does not require her to work 14h days in two jobs and never really see her kids, good for her, regardless of whether that involves sex work.

Predatory drug dealers are not exclusive to sex work either. What's the alternative for your drug addicted hooker anyway? A "steady" job is probably out of the question at this point. So... burglary and robbery? I am empathetic to drug addicts and am all in favor of helping them, also at a regulatory level. Things like decriminalizing possession and easy access to a reasonably funded support system (with social workers, etc) and treatment for those willing to take that step. Driving drug addicts, who we as a society do not help enough or who refused our help, into a life of hard crime, taking away their livelihood and/or making them even more vulnerable to abuse (if you're a "lawless" prostitute, then you won't go to the police when you've been beaten up, raped and/or robbed for fear of being arrested yourself) is not a solution to me.

All the resources spent right now punishing prostitutes and their clients could be redirected at fighting the actual criminals (the predatory drug dealers, human traffickers and pimps), and to help and support people struggling with drug addiction or mental illness as well as victims of human trafficking.

I don't get how with prostitution a lot of people always proclaim "but we should ban it entirely because trafficking and pimps and drug dealers!". All the while we do not ban all factory jobs because "there are some sweat shops with defacto forced labor!".

SEC says GameStop’s stock surge was more than just a simple short squeeze
In C and C++, It's unlikely the compiler will optimize that because of pointer aliasing. It's basically impossible for the compiler to know if a given pointer will ever be re-referenced in the future due to pointer math or in an extreme case, explicit pointer addresses (happens semi frequently in the embedded world).
Disappointing and frustrating if it’s true.

It’ll become an even more overloaded term, except now, instead of just the legitimate philosophical meaning, we’ll also have people associating the term with the most toxic and harmful business in tech.
Nurses were on strike in Texas?

Stephenson in "Cryptonomicon" has a scene where a character attempts to trick a spider by touching the web, and remarks that it had never worked.

The initial few paragraphs are dense and wordy, but once the author gets past introducing their frame of reference, the $4000 words drop off and the writing is much clearer and the article becomes readable. It's worth getting past the entrance paragraphs, as there are some worthwhile strong points being made.

> Perhaps you’ve heard of this “pandemic” thing where an absurd number of professionals are working remotely and participating in virtual meetings?

Perhaps, but having cameras on during a teleconference is counter-productive.

> But that the clearly overwhelming majority—if the iPhone is any evidence—simply do not notice enough to care about. iPhones with the notch have continued to sell in record-setting numbers, despite your own personal sensibilities.

I use an iPhone. I hate the notch. It doesn't bother me enough to switch platforms after a decade of iPhone usage, or getting an outdated iPhone, but it does bother me. With every new iPhone release, people like me are awaiting the end of the notch. Apple doubling down on this nonsense tells me: The notch is here to stay. They're trying to turn a flaw into brand identity. It's working, at least on people like you.

> The best thing I can say about it is that it’s a phenomenally well-executed compromise...

The reality distortion field at work. They could have made the notch massively smaller. They didn't because that notch is part of the brand. They could have just shrunk the bezel a tiny bit less to accomodate for a camera. They didn't, because again, they'd rather make it about the brand. The screen real estate argument is bogus. If that screen estate made a difference, they could've made the thing just a tiny bit larger.

> You are one quick Google search away from enlightenment, friend.

I'm not saying nobody ever copied it. I'm saying nobody is (still) copying it. It has been tested on the market, and the market said: No. Nobody wants a notch.
Thanks for the feedback. The main concept is to keep using 24 hours, 60 minutes, 60 seconds system and build the clock on top of that. Cool clock you have there as well.
The difference is that coal contains carbon that has been locked inside the earth's surface for at least a few million years (if not longer).

Trees on the other hand contain carbon that those trees extracted from atmospheric CO2 while growing. Burning those trees merely returns CO2 to the atmosphere that was taken from it a few decades ago. If you do that in a balanced way (growing the same amount of trees that you burn at any point of time), you may create a cycle that does not affect long-term atmospheric CO2 concentration.
A common attack is to register domains similar to existing ones to capture misdirected traffic, and serve malware or ads.

Cosmic rays routinely flip bits in browsers' memories at the moment of request, causing the URL to change by one symbol.

To defend against this, big companies typically register a bunch of domains that are slight mutations of their primary business (redirecting to it).
Yes, you're right. They can't all be nouns.
It means anyone can sue for breach of contract if they are a beneficiary in some way, even if they aren't one of the parties of the contract. If you make a deal with the government to provide free school meals and then they underpay you so you stop providing the meals, now every parent can sue you. Doesn't sound quite right.

I think it would be better to fix this by having the GPL explicitly grant standing to anyone receiving it. Not a lawyer though so no idea if you can just do that. Maybe not.

Wages are orthogonal to burnout

Burnout is a psychological factor
It's sad that Joe Rogan comes up as any kind of authority on anything besides mixed martial arts.
That’s not how business works in 2021. You hire traveling nurses to suppress wages.

The hospital my wife worked in merged into a big network and gave every RN a 25% haircut, and laid off a few key departments (ER most notably), replacing them with travel nurses and a contracted medical practice. A few exceptions were made in high margin lines if business.

Net result? Care sucks, finances are green. They purged the mid-career people and now have a young and dumb workforce. There was a particular emphasis on hiring military wives as they are transient. The key thing is to stave off unions.

Like any other consulting thing, they eventually purge the hired guns. The traveling nurse boom is a COVID thing. As COVID wanes, these folks will be back in the meatgrinder.

Ask HN: What should I do for money?
I am reaching 40 and been software engineer for 15 years. I am finally realizing that the main reason I got into programming was to start my own startup. Programming for others while still very satisfying is a little drag.

So I went a leadership route for a bit but the stress-level is through the roof. I feel like I am always negotiating. I am making $150K in Dallas TX.

A few of my friends have changed jobs recently and they are making over 200K as developers. They all are based in Dallas or Texas. This makes me want to go back to being a developer, have lower stress, and make more money.

Finally, I have long term plans to write books. I have set 25 years to deadline to become a full-time author. The reason for long deadline is because I have small kids, limited time to learn a new skill. And just want to be realistic.

Given all that information what should I do?

A: Keep my current job as a team lead and move further into management.

Pros: Flexibility because been here for so long, leadership skills don't expire, eventually can make more money than as software devs

Cons: Less money for now, more stressful, stuck on a bad project at my current company

B: Get a new job as a developer

Pros: Take advantage of current economy and enjoy more money immediately, less stress, more satisfying work.

Cons: Reset my flexibility/influence, leetcode/interviews, eventually I will old man competing with young grads.

C: Some other option?
No, stop tuning other people's lives, you're not in charge of "tuning" humanity.
Adobe runs just fine on macOS, if you have to use Adobe.
I suspect there’s nowhere enough money for apple or Samsung to enter the medical devices field for real. I would think the headphones have a Bluetooth receiver, a d/a converter and a speaker. They rely on the associated device to handle “adjustments”. Might be noise reduceing, but that only adds a mic and a phase inverter. Much simpler device. Getting medical approval takes time and $$… Easier to put fine print that the things does not treat or cure anything.
Great feedback. I'll work on that. Thanks!

Believe it or not, the APL world's changed a lot since then. I still consider APL dead, but there are strong signs of rebirth.

APL dialects April[0] and KAP[1] are improving rapidly, and my own offshoot BQN[2] has gone from prototype to a full language. All of these are open source and made to work with the Unix ecosystem. While the K language isn't as close to APL, ngn/k[3] is following a similar trajectory.

This year we created a Discord/Matrix forum[4] (bridged together) for array languages, which has hundreds of members and a few conversations per day at the slowest. The Array Cast was featured prominently here when the first episode aired[5] and is also worthy of note: they say they now have thousands of subscribers.

I’m generally happy with Google’s results as well, but I also acknowledge that both of our experiences could be a symptom of us wanting to see the things Google that has not labeled as misinformation and it would be harder to detect subtle missing perspectives that might be being downranked if the results shown are generally pleasing to us.
It does, but if it is young wood it contains newly captured carbon and so the net effect over a short time period (in climate terms) is that it doesn't change the overall atmosphere.

In comparison to coal or other fossil fuels, which adds tons of carbon that had previously been outside the atmosphere, a net zero over 50 years is pretty green. Of course, this supposes you actually manage to get enough new trees grown in that time which might not be true if forests are logged by clear cutting and not supported after that.
Apple Admits It Was Wrong About the Future of Laptops

It's all relative. It's a semi-high COL region. You have a lot of security, defense, intelligence, and other government contractor/ consulting jobs in the area. I see a lot of $100k+ jobs and even a fair number of $200k+ jobs. This is better than my area and appears to be as better than the national median of about $105k since I see way more jobs over that number than under it in that area.
That's the way a number of those special flags work. They are a contract to the compiler saying "act like this can't happen, I promise it won't".

The picking and choosing specific flags enable might be better in general. The flag `-funsafe-math-optimizations` seems to be useful as general-purpose, although as this article mentions, some of those optimizations need the more unsafe ones to become active.

I would say that `-ffast-math` is a dangerously safe-sounding flag, `-funsafe-fast-math` would be better IMO.
