I dislike daylight saving time, and want the time zone offset to be the same all the time. I would rather have 12:00 solar noon (it make much more sense to me than the other way), but would also accept the other way; either way is better than switching for daylight saving time. If there is enough sun light then you can also see the time by the sun dial too. Also, the fact that the clock is switch back can confuse the time wrongly, since the clock will say the same number twice making it ambiguous and also you cannot simply to subtract the numbers to measure the intervals of time.

You should be able to do things regardless of what number the clock says. Don't rely on the numbers on the clock to dictate everything you are doing all the time. If you want to go outside when it is not dark, then that is what you can do. If you want to eat dinner when it is not dark, then that is what you can do. If you want to sleep when it is dark, then that is what you can do. This can be done regardless of what number is on the clock. If you want to work or schedule something for some time you can do based on whatever criteria would be appropriate, regardless of what number is on the clock; regardless of what criteria are being used, the numbers on the clock will still tell you the intervals of time, and how long it takes. For example, opening hours need not be fixed, and holidays need not be fixed, etc. But, maybe you will not need to schedule something for a specific time anyways, in all circumstances. Also, if you want to wake up earlier, then you can set your alarm clock for an earlier time; you don't need daylight saving time for this to work.

I always liked Diskitude which was a 10k single binary, even supports hidpi! Author did go to town on the optimization though, it doesn't even use the c std library.
There already are adapters around and software/libraries to build applications to tunnel MIDI over IP, but the hard part IMO is to define a standard so that different products can talk together. Small Ethernet capable microcontrollers are cheap, so once a standard is defined it would be easier to implement it on devices.

Would those people do equally well or better if they didn't have jobs that confined them indoors with little natural light and were able to get out around noon for an hour long walk or run, instead of having to desperately try to catch that hour of sunlight after they get home?
Oh man, you don't know the half of it. John Harvey Kellogg developed breakfast cereal to keep you from jerking off. He originally didn't include any sugar: it was just tasteless plant crap in a bowl.

That happens on every system I believe. It does for my RHEL boxes anyway. That also isn't the behavior I am looking for so I will stick with "which".
Whether or not legal redress is practical is a separate question. But MangoDB is obviously creating "confusion in the marketplace" and sponging off the goodwill created by somebody else. That's not cool whether it's a commercial entity abusing a FOSS trademark, or the other way around as in this case.

There's a way to prevent this - to my great annoyance, health apps (such as the ubiquitous MyHealth variants) and banking apps can prevent you from taking screenshots or copying text. This is presumably to prevent screen-scraping apps from stealing your private data, but it's really annoying when you're trying to screenshot a QR code for some kind of check-in process.
Here in the mountain areas of California, we actually have quite a few wild and domesticated-gone-wild nut and fruit trees around.

There's the gray, one of the few pines who's nuts are edible, there's black walnut and ordinary walnut and the Chestnut as well as wild/feral plums, apples and pears. I have found just one unopened, fallen gray-pine cone so far and extracting the nuts is labor intensive indeed (to get the nuts, put pine cones in a burlap bag and hit is against a wall many time but then you have a bunch of nuts that require considerable cracking ).

Black walnut meat is very tasty (more like pine nuts than standard walnuts imo). And the tree spew out a whole lot of nuts. The only problem? The meat seems to be exactly as hard as the shells and the shells don't seem to every naturally open. Perhaps if you smash the things and used some centrifuge you could usable meat in quantity. Chestnuts are easy though, I collect enough for a modest snack each time I go through town lately.

Wild food is cool but there's a reason human domesticate and breed plants.
I strongly disagree. The specialists exist and the benefit is too large to be ignored.
Whether or not you're serious, and forgetting the salaciousness of your satire, there's the point about how completely irrelevant it is as an analogy to what is in question

For the purposes of this discussion, is it really different from knowing that their products are harmful and still making sure as many people as possible use them?
Think of it as a checksum.

As a non-native German speaker, I sometimes struggle with understanding speech (especially with thick accents). Knowing the gender lets me narrow down the possibilities of what a word might be, when I don't hear it all the way.

I personally don't see anything wrong with this. If a private company would do this, sure. But the EU, no. They are non-profit and very unlikely to ever turn rogue.
edit: I even welcome this change. You can dislike how you wish, I stand by my view.
Why not though? I'm buying a house and this came to mind.

-Centralized city/county tokenizes all parcels of land, grants them to current owners

-I can prove I own it via a signed transaction, and anyone can trustlessly verify I own it

-When I sell it, I can trustlessly transfer it to the recipient for an agreed upon price via smart contract

Boom, no more closing fees. Eliminate the scammy title insurance industry. No broker fees... etc etc. Can someone ship this before I waste five figures paying parasites next month?

EDIT: Thoughts on flow.

-Seller owns token 123 in address A, which yourCity.gov shows is the following plat.

-Buyer approaches seller, provides address B. Seller provides address, buyer can verify that token matches plat via yourCity.gov

-Buyer and Seller agree on offer, Buyer provides address which reveals requisite funds.

-Seller generates a simple smart contract, _including the buyers address_. Code is essentially "upon receipt of 150 ETH from address B, this address will transfer token 123 to B".

The buyer can then pay or not, knowing that if he pays X he will receive Y (and thus, legal ownership enforced by the state). The seller can take down/invalidate the contract at any time before it executes. The seller could also put another contract up to another buyer, and if buyer #2 pays before buyer #1 they get the token (and any broadcasts from buyer 1 fail because the token is gone).

Seems pretty transparent to me.
Yes, they are totally irrelevant with respect to modelling, but my point was that we shouldn't take the future as given as per our models, because it is not.

The IPCC does speak towards SRM etc. but I think large scale geoengineering isn't really part of the proper menu there. So no, the IPCC isn't all covering and all conclusive. EDIT: in the sense that it treats certain things as high risk and rather theoretical - which is true, but doesn't mean they should be off the menu.
Devil's Advocate, since I agree they should just meet virtually... arguably there are maybe 10,000 people globally that decide most things regarding climate change. If those 10,000 people flew to one spot and agreed to enact policies that alone did 3X more in a decade than all individual choices of citizens could ever do, wouldn't that be worth it? We know what individual citizens do regarding their lights and food and transportation habit is a small, miniscule piece of what the companies and governments actually can do, so I think it's a little pointless to tell billionaire CEOs and heads of countries with billions of people that they can't take flights to go make climate policy stronger. Those few flights would occur anyway, we can't stop them, and meanwhile they may be enacting changes that could clean up millions of future jet flights.
i continue to be highly unimpressed with the quality of criticism about facebook - but impressed by its staying power.

FB made no secret of its plans to make an Instagram for Kids with added safety controls and parental controls but it was basically shunned out of exististance for reasons ranging from "Lol Mark Zuckerberg is so awkward" to "we cant tolerate any advertising in our Late Stage Capitalism age" to "Instagram makes teenage girls want to kill themselves".

None of these really stuck and Facebook continues to chug along in general with a good core business model (down a bit due to Apple's ATT, not press coverage) and lots of experimental and ambitious non-core businesses. People continue to use and rely on the products - both brands and the people who love them.

If you were to ask Facebook employees themselves what their real external risk factor is, its definitely not congress or headlines - it's TikTok. And TikTok is not a better alternative when it comes to user privacy, teenage mental health, or the pernicious role of social media in our lives.
I don't find it hard since I leave a thermometer inside the chicken breast while it's roasting.
lectures dont work on me because you're pushing things into my brain whether I care or not, whether I already know or not, whether I'm ready or focused, and don't give me a chance to pause or ask questions, or crosscheck terms or go off on fractal pseudo-tangents to fill in the blanks in my mental map, etc.

therefore, for me, reading is soooo much better. though video lectures at least allow you to pause, its still too little signal density with too much noise, usually.

Also I am a very visual learner, and I use mental maps & 3D/4D system models inside my mind, and build/run little simulations in there as part of understanding and leveraging that knowledge. reading text & diagram inputs "fit" with that brain style better than traditional classroom lectures

I used dual-monitor set up for my MBA-M1. My external monitor is 1080p native and connected through Anker USB-C dock. When I connected the monitor to it, macOS on my external monitor looks blurry as hell. It is like it is imposed a strange resolution on my 1080p monitor that ended up looks worse. I tried to change the resolution through the Display setting and it didn't generally help. So the "secret menu" in Display didn't help at all, macOS is doing something to my external monitor that it was crisp and clear in Windows and Linux whereas macOS are not.

Trump is really weird for a number of reasons. He broke the mold in a significant way from the more traditional conservative politician so I'm not certain if he's that good of an example. I'm trying to avoid "no true scotsman"ing but Trump really was a pretty big contrast to most other republicans.

One thing here is that it suggests removing pure virtual functions with just one implementation. I use this pattern often to kill dependencies, say when one huge part of an app needs to call another one, but you don't want to create a dependency one way or the other.

In C++, compile times sometimes explode if you include every header in every other one - so it's really great when you can #include just a one-line generic "virtual" callback interface from two places instead.

But yes it affects binary size just a bit.
The Fedora base image does not include which. The base image is what's used in the standard OCI Fedora container, some Flatpak work, and some other things.

Arch also doesn't include "which", nor do some arch-based distros.
Maybe. Wasn't my intent, but let's allow the conversation to move past that.

The mass populace is not stopping their use of FB regardless of what's in the news or what these polls say about their views of FB. From the evidence, one can only surmise that people don't truly care what FB does. Most addicts don't care what their drug dealer does as long as they can get their fix when they need it.
I like that Elon is asking for specific outcomes, even if the wording isnt exactly accurate. I imagine he runs his companies the in similar ways. You can see how defensive the UN is getting when asked for detailed outcome based plans, vs lofty statements with vague outcomes like ‘prevent geopolitical instability’.
Thanks! Marketplaces have the hardest and most valuable matching problem in search. We target mobile-first marketplaces with unique inventory and mature search systems because if we can solve that, then we can solve any matching.
My comment you replied to was not suggesting defrauding the government (definitely don’t ever do that, going on the record I don’t support that) but commentary on how frequently something that should happen (equipment destruction) as required by law, policy, or contract doesn’t happen. Very similar to how hard drives with very sensitive information on them always seem to end up on eBay (or marketplace of your choice).

Ask HN: Seasonal effects on consultant hiring in your area
I was just wondering if there are any seasonal upswings or downswings on hiring of consultants and if those differ from the upswings or downswings of normal hiring. For example in Denmark where I am I think during the three main vacation periods of course nobody goes out and hires a consultant, in Italy I suppose nobody hires a consultant right before August or during for that matter. Any others?

I’m happy to be wrong about this, thank you for the link. It’s new information from the top linked article that pro bono would be allowed. I would speculate there’s maybe a big enough caveat in there that the university knows makes a pro-bono arrangement unworkable while appearing to be flexible. “On their own time without using university resources” could mean it’s not actually possible, and doing it pro bono obviously doesn’t change how the university feels about the case and it’s potential harm to their interests. But if the university really means it and would allow the testimony without repercussions, then the situation isn’t as bad as it seemed.
The entire concept of time is a "social agreement". Including when noon is. Solar noon is never at clock noon where I live or for that matter in most places, it's off by an amount dictated by political decisions and boundaries as well as by the fact that it literally drifts a bit over the course of the year.

If you get things right first time, you don't need to add as much complexity on the journey to ship something usable.

This is obviously easier coming from behind. You simply don't have to (and shouldn't) repeat other people's mistakes.

> It wasn't even as complex as Rust

I'm particularly dubious about this claim. Even counting from the genesis of C++ rather than standardisation, yet counting Rust as starting only in 2015, C++ after six years not only has multiple inheritance and overloading of everything, it also already has templates. That's a lot of complexity.

bit long winded, in order to lead to answer
without providing answer.

issue:
trying to cover all bases when matching up theory (generalization/abstraction) and reality (specification/implimentation) always depends on the terminal conditions/assumptions. aka where/how/what the end/stop point(s) are.

objective:
provide a working example of dfa.

reality assumptions:
what are the relevant programming language/operating system
abstractions/assumptions that hide details that theory/algorithms can dodge/ignore, and/or allow programmer to not be concerned with.

actual working program realities:
what programming language constraints/assumptions were made/used to define/constrain x (terminal case/cases) in order to use the programming language to find the 'bit' in question? aka what is the bit part of, which then dictates how to use the program language to find the answer.

how many different constraints/ways does a programming language rovide/allow to accomplish/impliment the same dfa! (standard & wierd ways of using program language)

gotchas: is the terminal case(s) the base/end case & not an abstraction/symbol needing to be further broken down/defined (the monad)
I doubt California does this well. My experience in California is that if you look at voting trends you'd think areas like SF are deeply blue, probably borderline far left. If you come out here though, it's really not that way. Then again, a comparison like the one you gave is bound to fail even the smallest smell test.

The outcome is similar in that votes don't really reflect what the population wants, but for different reasons.
Appreciative to see we've all moved on from, 'voter id is inherently racist,' to, 'what if my dog ate my voter id?'

If humanity can't cooperate to prevent climate change, what makes you think we can cooperate to adapt to climate change?

If one group of people dams a river to adapt to having less water, and another group destroys the dam so they have more water downstream, then pretty soon nobody has water and they're in a shooting war.

If by adapt you mean "grab everything for yourself"... well, I think The Postman was a disturbingly prescient novel. In that story, nuclear war wasn't the real problem, the real problem was "survivalists" trying to grab everything for themselves and preventing society from reassembling. There is no amount of resources you can amass that will protect you from the war of all against all.

We must all hang together, or surely we will all hang separately. We must act now to work together to mitigate global heating and avert climate disaster, or when resources get scarce we will not be able to cooperate to divide up pieces of a smaller pie.

And if you think the climate crisis will not destroy more than it creates... well, you don't understand the speed and scale of the catastrophe. The natural world cannot adapt at the speed we are changing it, and humans rely on the natural world.

Do note that they can already do that now. A stasi-like state just has to force Google/Apple to store/give them the history, and Google/Apple will oblige. They already do so regularly in "non-stasi" states without much fanfare.
