Right, the question is whether it's "after X time using it at all costs money", or "after X time updates cost money" - one of those is a lot easier to defend.
It might be just me but I can’t understand the difficulty of shifting one hour over a night or two. Flying across N America is 3+ hours and going to Europe can be 6-11. Do the people who can’t deal with an hour damn near die on trips such as this?

If small kids have to be outside near traffic at any point, better than they get as much light as possible. Having little Johnny mushed by an suv tends to upset folks.

And thinking about Cop26, perhaps we should minimize external lighting when possible to save energy and lessen impact on nature. Both of these, unfortunately, lean towards dst.

Edit: forgot. I assume most people change when they get up on the weekend vs, the work week. If this assumption is correct, they might have more extreme time shifts every weekend than the once a year problem being discussed…
Many squat racks and benches come with safety features to prevent that kind of failure. Don’t let that fear stop you from getting a home gym. To avoid really bad situations just always have a safe solution to “what if I can’t finish this rep“. Separately, you’ll get regular injured at some point doing something totally safe. But that just comes with the territory.

[1]: Why we use Elixir: https://elixir-lang.org/blog/2020/11/17/real-time-collaborat...
I live about halfway down the US, and we have at least a month and a half in which the only sunlight an 8/8:30-5 worker (nobody actually works 9-5) is going to get is the sun blinding them while rising during their morning commute, and blinding them while setting during their evening commute. No amount of screwing around with the clock keeps the sun up longer. The only way to give people more free daylight hours in the winter, would be to have significantly shorter working hours.
That is interesting to hear.
After I started climbing, my RSI was also eliminated within weeks.
I found that quite unintuitive and thought that maybe I did not have "real" RSI but just the symptoms of overburdened tendons.

I think that's totally reasonable, but I'm still left wondering when and how states should actually carry out purging their voter records. Would a year before a presidential/midterm election be fair? Six months? What about primary elections?

As for same-day registration, I'm sort of for it, but only if people understand the cost involved. And it's not about money. I served as a poll worker in California many years ago, which has very accommodating rules for voting. You can register same-day, vote out-of-precinct, the whole smash. It makes it really easy for voters, which is a good thing. But it has a price: it makes the check-in process more complicated. If there are a lot of people who need to do same-day registration (as was the case in my precinct when the city renamed a street a few weeks before the election), then it causes long lines.
Stop switching and split the difference. 1/2 to the summer and 1/2 to the winter.
Some of us were around for the last set of changes:

* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_Policy_Act_of_2005#Chan...

* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daylight_saving_time_in_the_Un...

Much patching / updating of tzdata and rebooting. I think that effort led to a bunch of changes that make for easier updates going forward.

Until that point there wasn't really that much churn in things over the past few decades, so people became a little more bit complacent when it came to TZ code.
If it's not important, we should remove the complex system (clock changes) in favor of a simpler system (no clock changes).
Who cares? When I want to know where my python comes from, I which it. Oh, that's the virtualenv, thanks.

Unless you doing alternative micro meta alpine docker images, this has no importance whatsoever.
Yes, you are wrong. For example, the "I" in ACID stands for isolation, which offers some guarantees regarding concurrently running transactions. In particular, if you have 2 concurrently running transactions A and B, and A finishes before B, and B fails, then the database does not return to the pre-transaction state (if failing transaction B would cause transaction A to be rollbacked, the Isolation principle would be violated).

Furthermore, many real-world databases do not fully provide ACID guarantees, and yet you can reason about the database anyway.

I suspect it's only because higher management and/or owners like to see subordinates suffer.

I remain steadfast in my position that people who support year-round DST are utterly clueless and have not done the evaluation of what that means to kids going to school in the morning in winter.
I had a great experience taking BodyPump classes for ~1 year: https://www.lesmills.com/us/workouts/fitness-classes/bodypum...

Start with basically no weight (1kg x 2 + bar for anything with arms, 2kg x 2 + bar for anything legs). It's cardio + weights, and they cover all the major muscle groups, and you're doing fairly rapid repetitions of a bunch of different lifts.

After 3-6 months doing _that_ class, I would then start supplementing that with occasionally (once every few weeks) doing a smattering of the lifts, but "heavy" and only a few reps out on the gym floor.

It's a great way to expose you to the lifts in a group setting, the instructors (in my experience) are always up for a quick chit-chat afterwards about form + safety, and once you've mastered the movements, it's pretty low equipment to set up a station at home and follow along with videos.

...but... it's super helpful to have a professional who can monitor your posture + movements and guide you to good habits when you're starting out.

I was typical nerd in high school, and now I can rattle of all the different curls, chest presses, flys, squats, deadlifts, clean and press, lunges, planks, crunches, blah blah blah, and I've enough confidence in my form and not hurting myself to pick up a bar + some weights and do it at home. It's a really nice skill to have and it's something I really miss... I'll have to make time and pick it back up!
I want DST year round in CA rather than the current standard time.
Dumbbells are a great alternative. You can still get injured, but you can also push yourself knowing that you can drop the weight and not risk it crushing you.
It’s also the time that most closely aligns solar noon to clock noon. People who advocate for “summer time all the time” basically just want to wake up earlier but want clocks to trick them into doing it.

(The more legitimate argument is for western regions to align to summer time to be closer in clock time to their eastern neighbors.)
Have you tried pre-workout? Personally this makes going to the gym a blast when I'd otherwise be going through the motions. Just make sure you find something that's ranked well on LabDoor since admittedly the industry can be shady.

Lifting with someone else can also go a long ways in making it more enjoyable although this can often be difficult. A personal trainer can be a great substitute if you have the disposable income.

Lastly quantifying your lifts is great. This is coming from someone that ran cross country in high school but now mostly sticks to the gym and Jiu Jutsu. I have the opposite problem :)
The only thing new in Rust 2018 is the impl Trait in argument position.

Generics and trait bounds are in the language from the start.

So you can write this function like this:

fn twiddle<T: IntoIterator<Item = Foozle>>(foozles: T)

Which is 100% idiomatic today and is even preferred by some people over using impl Trait
Ask HN: Is ESP / Expressif dominating new IoT projects?
ESP seems to have a strong open source following, is quite popular. Is it becoming the best choice for new embedded mcu / iot projects?

I'm returning to the embedded world after a 5-year hiatus and Expressif has really exploded onto the scene while Adruino, AVR, and microchip seem a bit more sidelined. Especially for cost-conscious projects, or regarding connectivity options (ie. wifi).

Does it make sense to use AVR/Microchip for new projects of low-medium complexity or would most people recommend ESP-family mcu boards for new-starts?
This is completely arbitrary. We could switch to DST all year round and work 9-5, or we could switch to normal time year-round, and work 8-4. It's the same thing - you're just calling it something different.
Blackberry was incredibly successful. I don't know why people always leave it out of the conversation.
It is not different in the UK. This person will get their house back when the Land Registry has ticked all the boxes.

They were shocked by the reluctance of the police to enforce their property rights simply on their say-so. They were shocked by it because they hadn't really thought through how the system works. It is not the role of the police to evict someone who is the registered owner merely on the say-so of someone else who claims to have been defrauded. Clearly there are good reasons for this.

The article presents the facts as though they will never get their house back (with some creative ambiguity about what 'legal owner' means - does it mean the legally registered owner, regardless of any past fraud? or the actual rightful owner) because it makes a more interesting article than 'Man left annoyed after a painstaking legal process restores him his property rights'.

If the purpose of buying real estate is to build wealth, then it is, by definition, an investment. If the purpose is to provide shelter, it is not.

In practice, people buy houses both as an investment and a shelter. So the CPI attempts to ignore the portion of the purpose that functions as an investment.

No, those arguments are not a factor.

Most at home racks have "safety bars" that you can adjust to act as a safeguard from dropping weights.

The most dangerous for dropping weight imo are bench and squat, and both are easily mitigated with the bars adjust to the correct height.

Ex: https://www.garage-gyms.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/squat...
I think you're overthinking. I had the same fear when I first started going to the gym.

So far my experience has been really positive, I find it hard to put myself in such situations as long as:

1. Always start with low weight and try to check if you're "feeling" the right part of your body, sort of like a form + mind-muscle connection check

2. If you plan exceed a previous maximum, try to

2.1. Do that with someone around you, or

Really? I was under the impression that the glass isn't a fully enclosed "bulb" so to speak, but is cut off at one end to accommodate the rest of the necessary hardware, and glue completes the seal. Perhaps you're right. I can't seem to find a diagram or anything that shows this, though.
Shouldn't that code just do whatever tzdata says, and when tzdata says "don't change for DST", it just doesn't?
On the other hand there is value in learning different languages and concepts, and possibly applying them in your day to day job if it makes sense. It makes you a better programmer. But one is a means to an end, and the other is... I don't know, a philosophy? L'art pour l'art?
Experts created it, now experts say it's "not helpful."

Maybe we need more common sense and less help from "experts."
The 20-Page Rule
I went through the lessons at https://learngitbranching.js.org/ when I was first learning git. Afterwards, I went looking for a program that would create a similar visual representation of the branches... and I'm still looking.

There's a big listing of gui clients on the git website here: https://git-scm.com/downloads/guis. One obstacle I didn't expect to face is that many don't have Linux versions. GitUp is probably the closest to what I'm looking for, but it's Mac only. A windows-only program, gmaster, also caught my eye.

For the most part, I've used GitVine and Ungit. I've found both helpful (I don't know how people keep track of the "paths" of their repositories without seeing them), but I've run into issues with how the commits are spaced out when the trees are rendered on both programs. GitVine occasionally criss-crosses the "parent" pointer arrows as though they were overlapping, which is really confusing.
Ungit hasn't overlapped them, yet, but it spaces the commits kind of strangely. HEAD will be right at the top, but then I'll have to scroll an entire page to reach the parent. Meanwhile, a nearby branch will be shot diagonally way out to the far right (I think this happens because there are branches a few screens down that are "occupying" that horizontal space). I've found zooming in and out to be the better way to travel around.
The opening sentence is untrue, so why would I believe anything else they claim?

> Apart from being used as a medicine, cannabis or marijuana is the most widely abused recreational drug all over the world.

Alcohol is the most widely abused drug bar none. Coffee might be second.

Sure but that's because it's used by loads of enterprises. I'm not sure I'd count them as part of the "community".
I agree with that assessment on the surface. But it's a sign of a generally unhealthy team, not just a poor PM (although the poor PM might be the root cause).
They assessed the kit to ensure it was safe to install on British networks, they announced it was safe, and the kit was installed.

Further, when America's anti-Huawei panic started HMG were looking for an excuse to ban Huawei kit. If problems had been found it's likely they would have been mentioned.
>Personally I'd absolutely do it and take the gamble. But I'm risk-thriving (hence started several companies, enjoy international travel, etc.)

I did not think I would ever see someone comparing starting businesses and international travel with committing clear misdemeanors and possible felonies and opening oneself up to civil suits.
I don't think you should worry about it. Start small and incrementally work your way up. You shouldn't start with a load heavy enough to prevent getting out of.

A quality adjustable fitness bench with a bunch of free weights can go a long way. Though important to note you can still injure yourself with free weights (muscle injury with long heal time).

The key is to start small and work your way up in reps/resistance over time. Your body will tell you what you can do.
