At least when I was doing the interrail those options were not available with the ticket without paying considerably more. I've taken 2 person cabins here to Lapland (from Helsinki, Finland) and they exhibit the problems in my original comment. And of course, if you're going to go solo in a 2 person cabin then you'll have to cover the cost of the other person.

Shit happens. These systems aren't exactly 100% perfect, but they're usually better than the alternatives.
Indeed, this level of security is mostly needed for a very small percent of the user base, those concerned with being spyed upon.
That doesn't mean it shouldn't be address, but then repairability concerns many more people directly (and their pocket). There were other ways to achieve the same goal if it was solely for privacy.
I am no expert here, but as I understand it, measure theory is used as the basis for all modern probability theory for the reason that it simplifies a lot of things as you get to more advanced topics, like Markov chains on general state spaces [1]. So if you want to study Stochastic Processes you probably want to use measure theory. So thus the Lebesgue integral is not just for "pathological" sets (I remember reading somewhere that even the Lebesgue integral still breaks down on some really pathological examples). If you've studied mathematical statistics, you'll typically see proofs for expectations of discrete distributions and continuous distributions. They're typically similar, but different since you're using summation for the one, and integration for the other. When you get to random vectors, you can have weird distributions where some components are discrete and others continuous. Apparently using a measure-theoretic approach to probability, it unifies these into one general theory (again, I'm no expert, this is how I understand it).

Lacks the safety features of airplanes (gliding) or helicopters (autorotation), has terrible rotor placement and small air time. I would advertise it as "your personal death machine". :)

No amount of money would make me use that thing.

I've written a bit of PL/pgSQL, but I'll be honest, the basis of most of it has been copy/paste from Stackoverflow and tweak a couple of things here and there.

More recently I learned that you can also write python functions 'natively' (ie no need to install any modules) in postgres, which honestly seems like a much better idea all round than learning PL/pgSQL, even if you don't know any python already.

Can anyone comment on if there are any feature differences between the two, or why that might be wrong?
Building a product is easy but takes a lot of time, that's why you need some marketing skills and validate your product carefully before put your time into the product.

Don't forget the CCP lock down of local Wuhan travel with the exception of international flights. IIRC, early indicators of a possible outbreak existed long before the mass media picked up on the frenzy.

My parents who live in Taiwan were talking about it just as they were coming home from visiting me in the states around November 2019 and they were so concerned that they advanced me a box of medical grade masks by mid January, due to having lived through the hysteria with SARS-COV-1 in 2003.

No one took COVID19 seriously here while I commuted for work in NYC via MTA. At most, bottles of hand sanitizers did start appearing in the office late January but no one wore masks until the announcement for the "15 days to slow the spread" campaign.
I constantly think about how I'm coming across, whether my hand gestures are visible in frame, if I look like I'm frowning too much, if I'm nodding big enough to be seen, if I seem like I'm not paying attention when I look away from the screen, etc etc
I was surprised to discover that -ftrapv did nothing. So the obvious next step was to test on Ada, which I expected would catch this error on the first try.
That highly depends on which language and standard library you are talking about.

Reading C++ standard library gives you headache, and doesn't really teach you how to write C++ in a normal application. For a beginner, this is an impossible approach.

Reading Python standard library means reading C half of the time. Useful for some seasoned Python developers, but not for new comers who want to read Python.

At the end of the day, standard libraries aren't written to teach, and some being a good teacher is a coincident. When you are learning a new language, you really have no idea whether the standard library is a good source for beginners.

I'd suggest a less poetic, more pragmatic approach to learning a new language: ask the most active forum of the language, and use the most common learning materials.
If other participants having a tiny 200px image of you (among 6 other people) in the corner of their screen is extremely fatiguing to you, how does it work when you go to the office ? Do you get seizures after 15min of in-person meeting ? Panic attacks ? How did you deal with life 5 years ago ?

Going from mostly physical office to mostly work-from-home on zoom is already a massive change that gives a lot of comfort to people. I think refusing literally ANY kind of human interaction apart from sound and written text is waaaay too anti-social.

Interaction is good, interaction is fine, this is where good ideas come from. Don't become a virtual entity. Humans are real.

> better than buses because a smoother ride

It really depends on where you are travelling.

In Canada (or at least Quebec) sure, train was more comfortable than bus in my experience, and I'd expect anything to be more comfortable than the absolutely awful experience I had with Greyhound in the US. Commuter trains in Montreal weren't what I'd call comfortable though, but that's probably the same everywhere.

In France, bus is less comfortable mostly because it's so much slower, but the ride on the highway is smooth (you can't beat TGV but the other trains often ride partially on older, uncomfortable track). And you can't really move in trains if a baby next to you is crying, as seats are reserved (they are on TGV and IC trains but not on TER though). You can always take the risk to go to an empty one but you will probably have to move again next stop (and maybe find yours occupied in turn).

In Vietnam, bus is infinitely more comfortable than rail, on one side you can find cheap enough buses that are very comfortable (both the ride and the on-board amenities) and on the other side the train is definitely not smooth at all. I take the train because I like trains, but there's no question buses are more comfortable (and generally faster as well).

Well-maintained, modern trains on good tracks are comfortable, but they're maybe not as common as you might think.
Microservices and the layers to watch for when architecting your system
No matter how careful you are with the initial architecture of your microservices system, it is inevitable to re-architect as you go. Specifically to properly distribute service responsibilities.
If something goes wrong, you're done for. If you're close to the ground, you have no time to do anything. Even if the flight controller discovers the failure early enough and cuts the motors, you'll still probably flip over/smash into the ground. If you're high enough, you'll just fall to your death.
If you are trying to figure out and model something in your mind, then i am fully there with you.

The problem is your marrying it to Agile and its Manifesto. They are a bunch of platitudes, there is no exact definition far less a process/methodology, it can mean anything, everything and nothing in a given context and thus have nothing concrete to recommend themselves. As you can see in this thread, the words Agile/Scrum invoke rather strong feelings amongst the HN crowd and hence your message has gotten lost.

Instead, if you were to do a article on what/how you feel Taleb's ideas can be applied to Software Project/Risk Management, that would be an interesting and welcome read.
I started to have the same issue about 10 years ago. Suddenly bars and crowded places became far less enjoyable for me because I had such a hard time keeping up with conversations. I had my hearing checked and while it wasn't perfect, it was just normal for my age.

I remember reading that it had to do with how I processed language and sounds, and that there was no real cure yet as a few years ago.

The last couple years has made it far less of a problem but as we start to return to normal (eventually) I'd love to figure it out. I tend to feel bad sitting through a conversation where I'm only hearing about a third of what others are saying.
If the apps you have developed solved practical problems of yourself, they are not failed.
It originated in that space, but the ecosystem has taken it in very different directions. It has lower-level abstractions than n8n (which focuses on automating third-party SaaS), but can arguably do the same.

I've used it for an insane amount of things, starting with home automation and telemetry but also fairly sophisticated uses, including:

- Sniffing for multicast streams on a LAN and exposing IPTV set top boxes as HomeKit devices

- Automating image conversion and video transcoding

- Building an RSS aggregation and transformation pipeline that does translations, scraping, etc.

- Building a simple GUI for managing backup snapshots and batch file copies

- Monitoring Azure deployments (and exposing the data as simple dashboards).

- Doing App store price checks and sending Pushover notifications when an interesting app goes on sale (backed by SQLite).

- An embarrassing number of Slack and Telegram bots for various user groups/events/etc.

As a general rule of thumb, Node-RED can do pretty much any kind of automation you can get a REST API for, and quite often someone out there has already built a module for it.

I think of n8n more along the lines of a graphical workflow/BPM tool for SaaS, but with much less flexibility/ability to go "low level".
> What's wrong with this arithmetic? Don't independent FOSS organizations have similar metrics when deciding on things?

Math is never the problem; it's what you use it for.

> They want to progress while causing the least amount of grievance to the community ...

Except that's not what's happening here at all. Cannibalising a promised, existing OSS feature in favour of one's proprietary tool is not "progress". What caused them to back off wasn't a desire to minimise "grievance to the community", but harm to their self-image.

I'm not going to deign your sidetrack about another, actually Open Source product, making UX decisions, with a reply in connection to this charade of OSS.
I've been running Newsy myself to host all of my unused domain names.

https://www.newsy.co

Newsy takes an unused domain name and turn it into a content-aggregator (i.e. Reddit clone) with lots of features built in including membership, automated newsletters, HTTPS, using GMail for your domain etc.

I built Newsy because I had close to 50 unused domain names but had no time to develop them.

Newsy lets me quickly build sites for my domains and make use of them while waiting for (hopefully) one day that I turn them into a product.
I think that LowCode makes more sense than NoCode, because sooner or later you will run into a requirement that requires a bit of code, but the LowCode tools I have used can be used without writing any real code. You only need simple expressions ('a.b.c > 1') in JavaScript. An understanding of either SQL or REST/HTTP/JSON can't be avoided though, if you want to access external data.

I have some experience using Retool and UI Bakery. Both are quite similar and get the job done. The resulting UIs are never beautiful, but they are good enough to implement most requirements, and development is super-fast. I think I'd prefer Retool, but maybe that's just because I am more used to it.
When you look at history and tech there is only seemingly on way: progress. The thing is, it's not the case, and before you can deem something to be progress or not it usually is way too late (gas, asbestos, lead in gas, lead in paint, freon in fridges).

So what makes you dream now might be completely detrimental in the future. Not everyone thinks autonomous personal cars are a step forward, I personally think it's a step in the wrong direction.

Everybody asks "how" but nobody ask "why". "It's just progress why don't you like it?!"
s/political/personal/g

All slashdot style humour aside, the ongoing issue of petty fiefdom edit wars on the most inane topics is pretty well known. This and the acceptance of deletionist mindset despite the fact that there is so much automated tooling and maintenance helpers to negate the arguments around viewpoints purporting that without deleting things the wiki would become so big it couldn’t be maintained.

I don’t even bother fixing obviously out of date stuff anymore because I honestly can’t be fucked. I don’t want to play a game of Russian Roulette with my personal time/effort or engage in some pseudo-MMORPG by “grinding for rep” on Wikipedia. If I want to fix an old low profile article about a science mission and correct its launch date (which is still in the future) … it should take a few seconds to edit 2020 to 2023 … not a few minutes spread over several days
I think your description of modern buildings faking classical ones actually meshes with the author's. If the fake shutters were sized correctly such that we could picture them covering the windows when closed, they would be more palatable. And likewise, if a modern steel structure, clad in stone veneer put in false columns that only went up halfway to the roof above and then just left empty space above them, they probably would be irksome to no end.

Since this survey was conducted at the behest of an interested party (a "leading full-service residential solar provider"), it's worth looking at what was asked. Here's the question:

> How much do you oppose or support a nationwide solar mandate?

32% expressed "strong" support for the mandate, while 38% expressed that they "somewhat" support a mandate.

Notably absent in the question: how much such a mandate would cost and who would pay for it.

I'm sure if a group that opposed solar mandates asked "A nationwide solar mandate is estimated to increase the cost of a new home by $xx,xxx. How much do you oppose or support such a mandate?" they'd get different results.
The "counting low numbers of things instantly" thing has a name: Subitizing. It's quite the fascinating topic.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subitizing

Also, it's apparently not restricted to counting:

> A 2006 study demonstrated that subitizing and counting are not restricted to visual perception, but also extend to tactile perception, when observers had to name the number of stimulated fingertips.[7] A 2008 study also demonstrated subitizing and counting in auditory perception.[8] Even though the existence of subitizing in tactile perception has been questioned,[9] this effect has been replicated many times and can be therefore considered as robust.[10][11][12] The subitizing effect has also been obtained in tactile perception with congenitally blind adults.[13] Together, these findings support the idea that subitizing is a general perceptual mechanism extending to auditory and tactile processing.

I understand your point. I'm saying: the subset of problems that benefit in a performance sense from immutability is very small. The vast majority of the time, cache misses slow down algorithms. That's a perfectly reasonable generalisation and I don't really understand why you think it's untrue.

Re: change records, I believe Braid uses a historical record of absolute states, not a series of diffs. The state at a particular time is recreated from a minimal representation (a couple of arrays). That's much more efficient than throwing multiple iterations of the state in a HAMT.
Parachutes have a minimum altitude. For standard human chutes, that’s 300 feet (100 meters) or so.

Not sure what the ceiling is on this. They don’t have footage of it going too high.

You only need to fall 30 feet (10 m), to buy the farm. Less, in many cases (depending on how you fall, and onto what).

> the idea that everyone was entitled to a free personal copy of all legislation was not widely accepted

Was the idea that everyone is entitled to a copy of all legislation at cost widely accepted? Or did most people believe the the publisher (or the legislature?) should overcharge them and stand to make a profit off it?

I don't know how much "at cost" would be for ISO, but something tells me it wouldn't be an identical 158 CHF for both PDF and paper.

They could also easily have had different pricing based on location. Requiring EU and US users to pay €5 per year, while have perhaps just €0,25 in Asia, and free in Africa.

If you can't get someone to pay €5/$5 per year for a service they use every single day, then there's something really wrong in how we as users think about the service we use every day.
This one is hard as I have a gut feeling that sometimes it does happen as I have an Anglo name but am Asian-American. However, if it does happen, it may also be a place or team I wouldn't want to work for.

I wish Zoom would make it a default behaviour as I think it would help.a lot of people feel more comfortable in calls. Constantly staring at yourself in screen is weird and offputting.

>Trains are very comfortable to travel in as well imho.

Depends on the train, for example the British government had a "temporary" solution in the 1980s of putting train wheels on Leyland buses and using them as substitutes for proper trains in the poorer parts of the country. These were about as fast and comfortable as they sound and were only taken out of service for good this year.

Honestly British rail travel in general is about as comfortable as pulling teeth with rusty pliers, it's usually very crowded and unreliable but it's also ruinously expensive to the point you get absurd stories about it being cheaper to get to Scotland via Barcelona or similarly torturous routes by plane than it is to take the train.
