This is false. It improperly assumes that the cost basis of a landlord and tenant are the same, which is almost never the case.

A landlord can make a profit charging rent that would not even cover the mortgage payment if the tenant bought it.

I've seen way too many forums die in the switch from an old school forum to Discourse. Makes me sad.
Evidently so. I'm not quite up to speed, but ever since SS13 was first created there have been maybe a dozen attempts to move it off of BYOND: SS14, SS3D, RE:SS3D, UnityStation, Griefly, Bluespess...

I do remember stumbling across this issue[1] by one of the lead developers of SS14 calling out one of the devs of another project. I think it illustrates that the stories of people trying to remake SS13 alone are numerous and fraught with tension at times. But it speaks volumes about how passionate many individuals are about this specific game.

There is also this very interesting writeup[2] by another SS14 dev about four years ago about how the project got started.

Also interesting about SS14 in particular is that they use a completely custom engine called RobustToolbox, written in C#. This was after trying to use SFML, scrapping everything, and eventually spending a year "waiting for Godot", in someone else's words. One of the devs apparently spent two years mostly learning OpenGL just to finish the engine.

The FAQ at support.ntp.org says to use at least 4 [1] because math.

But it basically boils down to "With at least four upstream servers, one (or more) can be a "falseticker", or just unreachable, and ntpd will have a sufficient number of sources to choose from."

I've spent a bunch of time sorting out NTP in recent years, chrony does indeed keep much better time and converge more quickly.

I would be careful about the advice around NTP anycasting. While attractive as a solution (one IP!), there are tradeoffs and it would be important to take those into account before going down this path.[2]

Well, with GPL particularly but open source licenses more generally, the user is allowed to do whatever they want with the code. It is only when the code is redistributed that the source must be provided. With AGPL the source must be provided also to anyone using a service running AGPL licensed code.

So it plays perfectly with the licenses. This is the sort of thing free software was designed for, allowing everyone that uses a codebase to own it 100%.

I love the idea of using gravitational lensing of the sun from a lagrange point around Jupiter. IIRC it theoretically could image an earth like planet in the region of 1000px x 1000px so you could see continents and weather systems - perhaps even light from large cities.

I watched a great "Cool Worlds" video as well that said you could do similar with atmospheric lensing of the earth from a lagrange point near the moon (although it would filter out some visible light wavelengths and be weather dependant) - but potentially a much cheaper mission:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jgOTZe07eHA

This would be going full circle in terms of telescope technology, we started with lenses, moved to mirrors and now back to lenses!

To me these seem like the most exciting missions ever - could define a new epoch for humanity and inspire and excite hundreds of millions of people. I would be very disappointed if this didn't happen in my life.
My thoughts:

1. Why do I want to work for you based on this mail? You are telling me you are like every other company... literally!

2. Many of the things you list are very... wishy washy. You are using weak words. If I put those words on my resume, you'd pass them over.

3. Red flags:

3.1 I expect your company to have too many meetings. The fact that you even MENTION meetings with a positive tone is a red light, for some coders.

3.2 Much of what you mention I assume is true at most companies. What company would an employee NOT be able to give feedback to improve process at? Well.. no place people will stay long.

Final thoughts:

You are making a sales pitch. You are trying to sell me on wasting ~5 hours of my life on your company, possibly deal with rejection, etc. Why should I bother...

Your mail doesn't answer the question.

Answers: $$$! Good pay is an answer. Awesome benefits, STRONG culture, great name to put on my resume, good founders to convince me you'll have a great exit. These things matter! Remember, engineers work for a living, we may love what we do... but we'll listen to someone else's problems for money too.

Another thought: Lower the bar to reply. Unless it is a GREAT opportunity, why am I going to go beyond the site I'm using for a job search? Why am I going to cover letter, github, etc... for a generic job, that I'll get 10 of in the next week in my inbox, who will all be less picky, and less of a pain.

But I encourage you to look at it as sales. Sell me! Make me WANT to buy into YOUR company and YOUR product for what makes it great!

The issue with this study is that they can’t control for changes in society over time because the two groups of students evaluated did not attend school at the same time.

For instance, maybe the issue is much more mundane. Access to TV increased after 1994, leading to less time spent studying. Or perhaps students spend more time indoors now, leading to less mental development. There are literally countless causes that are impossible to evaluate. Trying to argue that male teachers bring some type of indescribable quality to the school atmosphere seems crazy.

It might be that it is diversity of opinions that count here, and that there can be significant differences in opinions based on where you grew up etc.

So swedes are cool with this, but what about people from different backgrounds? As the GP hints, people working in Sweden who are not Swedish are not comfortable with this, so perhaps in countries with much more diversity these things would never get off of the ground due to the sheer number of competing opinions on what is acceptable/unacceptable etc

This sounds interesting. Is it essentially an abstraction where to the programmer it seems like the whole notebook runs again for every change? Almost similar to how React makes it seem to the programmer that they are regenerating the entire page?

> If you recommend X instead of Y, it seems reasonable to discuss not only the downsides of Y but also how X is better or worse in comparison to Y.

Indeed. One should mention upsides and downsides of a solution. In our opinion, many "use XMPP" comments only focus on the upsides but rarely mention any downsides. This is the primary reason for our article on some (not all) downsides of XMPP. We focus on easy-to-verify findings. However, we (and others) can't write an exhaustive list of pros and cons of all messengers.

> Were those arguments valid?
Most of them drew attention to unrelated features. E.g., "Y requires your phone number; thus, users of Y can easily be tracked"; however, the situation isn't binary, and phone numbers weren't in our article in the first place.

Each server in a ring has a complete copy of the data for that ring. Each ring consists of a network of servers which may have nodes in different geographies. They're called rings, but are actually acyclic networks (IIRC).

Replication occurs automatically so you need to manage consistency in your app architecture. For example if you have instances of an app running in different geographies, the specific data for those instances should be in different folders.
>> Quad plexes by right [0 for example] makes a lot of sense to me. If you’re OK with a quad plex next door, IMO you’re not part of the problem

I would actually not be OK with quads next door to my house right now, because that is not the type of life I bought into. That may sound crazy so let me explain.

For 39 years, I valued density/walkability/convenience of city life, and lived in NYC for most of that time. Now that I have a family, I value certain other things in my life. We specifically chose a town that was "dense enough" but not "too dense" - zoning here allows neither mansions nor quads you're talking about. This has impact on things like - how busy the traffic is on local streets, how much green space there is, etc. Everyone who lives in this town chose it for the same reason.

Is not wanting quads next door NIMBYism? I don't think so... When I lived in the city, I wanted more tall buildings next to me, when I live in this town, I want more "this-town-style" homes next to me. Why am I ok with this? Simply because nobody moves to this town unless you want this life. If you want a more dense town with duplexes, triplexes etc, then there are other towns around us that are already zoned this way and people who live there want that. If you want even more density, NYC outer boroughs are just a few miles away. So people have choice.
Author in the old thread (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19262249) says

> An x86-64 CPU has sixteen integer registers, but 100-200 physical integer registers. Every time an instruction writes to, say, RAX the renamer chooses an available physical register and does the write to it, recording the fact that RAX is now physical-register #137. This allows the breaking of dependency chains, thus allowing execution parallelism.

I'm curious why they have so many more physical registers than... logical? registers. I have a couple of guesses:

* Physical registers are physically cheaper to add than logical registers.

* Adding logical registers breaks backwards compatibility, or at best means you get no speedup on things written (/compiled) for fewer logical registers. Adding physical registers lets you improve performance without recompiling.

* Adding logical registers increases complexity for people writing assembly and/or compilers. Adding physical registers moves that complexity to people designing CPUs.

Are some of these correct? Other reasons I'm missing?
> Surely other patients must have asked about [this traumatic experience]? Or commented on it?

I find myself having this reaction all too frequently after traumatic encounters with the healthcare system.

I honestly don't know the answer.
Do other patients really not communicate when they have a bad experience? Or do they communicate and the system is simply incapable of listening or reacting?
IIRC, hydrogen would be much cheaper and is lighter. The only thing stopping its use in the US is archaic law/regulation by the FAA that was put in place in the wake of the Hindenburg disaster.

Hydrogen doesn't burn without oxygen, and modern designs eliminate the risk of a leak that would result in a highly flammable gas mixture.

Being outside US airspace in this example, that wouldn't be a problem.

I think the method of execution should depend on how much the victim suffered. Killed in their sleep or never noticed the bullet? Asfixiation with an inert gas.

Abducted, raped, tortured and killed? Bring out the rack.

But then I am also okay with the death penalty for rape, but SCOTUS has already ruled that one out.

My main concern in making sure there was a fair trial and that the conviction was correct - replacing death with life in prison is not a substitute for a fair trail.
(Disclaimer: I do interviewing for senior software engineer candidates at Uber)

I'm gonna be blunt. Your pitch reads like a fresh-out-of-school student CV; all the stuff about soft skills and team growth can be omitted, a lot of it is frankly kinda corny. My recommendation is to read other job descriptions or look at how LinkedIn recruiters cold call. Generally speaking, be brief but clear about what the role is in terms of concrete business value (e.g. "you'll be working on product X"), don't get into too many minutiae. Say upfront what the role title actually is (it appears to be "frontend developer").

Also: what you write there doesn't matter nearly as much as where it's posted (other than having machine-readable keywords for search indexing). You didn't mention what your budget is, but generally the two main approaches are to either go for quantity (i.e. post on monster/indeed/etc) or go for curation (work w/ a recruiting firm). Just posting it on your website won't do anything.

It doesn't sound like you have much in terms of differentiators as an employer, and the position doesn't seem all that senior, so my recommendation would be to go for quantity and be prepared to do a lot of sifting. Alternatively, settle for "less" and be prepared to invest in up-leveling your hire. In reality, at the lower end, a lot of candidates that would otherwise be acceptable fits get intimidated by years of experience requirements.
What job do you ideally want? Build something relevant to that. I’m an experienced dev but this helped me a ton during my recent career move into a different niche (where many jobs require experience in that niche which I did not have).

Put another way, build something targeting the skills you want/need.

It's cool and all, SS13 is a very fun game, but at this point the game itself is simply too big and the community is too small for it to get a proper remake.

Anyone who frequently plays it will be disappointed by SS14 in the lack of features that the TG-Station fork of SS13 provides. TG-Station has been in development for a very long time. Replicating that work would require a sizable team of dedicated developers, and it'd still take years.

This will unfortunately peter out like every other SS13 remake. Old players and devs won't move, and if some of them do they have too many options to pick from. The prospect of many new players is unlikely, with the exception of the occasional highlight of the game by a popular youtube creator.

Don't get me wrong, the game is great, and I'd love a proper port that doesn't rely on Internet Explorer, but it's extremely unlikely to happen.
