No offense to you, but this attitude is exactly the problem here. I know it's not rational to be very concerned about this, but I also know that the entire duration of that procedure, I will be thinking "KNIFE. IN. EYE." In the world I normally inhabit, knives should not ever be in eyes, so this is an incredibly stressful thought, stressful enough that I might do something crazy like MOVE WHILE A KNIFE IS IN MY EYE. This thought is even more stressful.

The best advice for me personally is probably to breath deeply and try to relax.
I think that kind of gotcha response is usually wrong. Yes, people need to be protected from politics, and that protection requires a certain nonzero minimum amount of politics. The same is true for guns, smallpox, etc.
No, the meme claim is PRC spends roughly the same on domestic security as military (sub 2%). Which relative to GDP is about how much US spends on policing and homeland security without considerations of special budgets. US and PRC has comparable police state expenditures, US just also spends vastly more on military.
thats awesome...can you share a pic of your setup (if thats ok with you)...am just curious and wanna the see the setup.
I've been writing ruby since 2008. It's been the core language in my career since. I think that languages/frameworks are more or less popular based on your location. For example, Utah was an early adopter of Ruby/Rails and has become prevalent in many large companies here (Silicon Slopes). There were (probably not anymore) 4+ ruby groups that were within driving distance to me that ran each week.

Companies who choose Ruby/Rails I believe do so because they want fast iterations, agile development, and small dev teams. I think this also applies to Python/Django and PHP/Laravel as well.
I'm reading this book right now, and it doesn't make me enthused for the future. But I'm all over the place, I never know what level of doom-thinking to accept for climate change.

Ask HN: Anyone want to buy me a TRS-80 so I can make a sculpture of it?
I've been making concrete sculptures of computer history hardware and would really like them to continue to be as accurate as possible but I can't find any good resource on the dimensions of the first generation TRS-80. I'm not quite a tech millionaire but if someone wanted to impulsively buy this thing for me I could make a really fantastic sculpt of it: https://www.ebay.com/itm/255205656532.

Some examples of what I've sculpted so far --> https://tombetthauser.github.io/societyofobjects/images/
Any "recently-beginner-Emacs" users that could share a good tutorial or "the one" tutorial that made things click or made them push through ?

Stinky tofu doesn't really belong to that list, I think. It was pretty yummy.

There's some percentage of cars out there that are vintage vehicles, which owners don't mind spending the money on to keep going, even though they're emitting diesel fumes and are inefficient. There's a love of these machines, a love which is a hobby and a passion for many car-folks. Giving them some electrification options is a great idea, it needs to happen and it'll create some really fun and zippy vintage cars :)
I want to take basically this: https://www.adafruit.com/product/749 (I got a parallax boebot kit when I was younger, before arduino was a thing) and just have it roam around like a robot pet. Mostly to learn and play around and because I think it would be fun.

Never seen that project before, looks cool, but I don't have the hardware required. I DO have ten ultrasonic rangefinders, some gyroscopes and accelerometers and a raspberry Pi camera, and a complete lack of the math knowledge required to implement kalman filters and smart solutions
> Our usual estimate was that everything in a F1 car was about 1000x better than in other cars.

Well, I can't say that I like cars or enjoy driving them, but the biggest advantage of a car compared to a bike is its roof - at least, when it rains.

TU Ilmenau has Analysis and Linear Algebra but that is only heard by mathematicians. There is a different class called "Math for engineers" which mechanics students, computer science students, ... hear which has different tests and a different focus but still teaches solving linear ODEs and stuff.
There's more choice than just 'megacity and walk everywhere' and 'bumfuck nowhere and drive everywhere'.

Small/medium towns with a fairly dense downtown/market square exist, and while yes, it's more useful to own a car there than in a large city, you still can get tons of things done by walking, biking or taking a bus.

Random example: Alsfeld, Germany, population 16,901. A 1900s house (3br, 120m^2, downtown) 180kEUR [1]. Within walking distance: daycare, multiple doctors/dentists/pharmacies, restaurants, stores... and a train station with an hourly regional train.

With juniors, I'm looking at a few things:

1. Bullshit. Juniors are mostly blank slates and anyone who hires a junior can train. But you can't fix a liar.

2. Potential. The variance for a junior is a lot higher than a senior. It's sometimes a bit of lottery.

So I do indeed look for people who can be amazing over people who can get the job done. A chess game would be a hint of amazing. Many great devs started with a game.

I hired one junior because she made a crappy robot. It didn't matter that the robot was crappy. It mattered a lot more that robots aren't a software developer "thing". The first page of her resume was typical, but the crappy robots on the second page onwards were interesting. She turned out to be an excellent programmer and I paid her about 30% more than the usual, but alas we couldn't afford her for long.

What's interesting was that nobody else gave her an interview, so from a statistical view, she did poorly. But she got some above average jobs from it later so ultimately she succeeded.

There's a lot of dumb "rules" around applying for jobs, but I'd say it's a lot like dating. Don't dress for who you expect to meet. Dress for who you want to meet.
Shopping Haul
Ever since an early age (I mean pre-puberty) the idea of choosing "one and only, forever and ever" made little sense.

I remember reading a story about a very limited open relationship when I was about 12, and thinking, gosh, why don't they open it up MORE instead of running away at first sign of difficulty?

(The plot was that this couple had "base rules" that they could have sex with anyone they wanted, but ONLY ONCE, and NO FEELINGS ALLOWED. You can guess what happened.)

Later, I just came to love more than one person, and after struggling with trying to make sense of it, I decided that I didn't want to choose, and I would do whatever it takes to make it work somehow.

I started reading all sorts of books about making relationships work, and applying what I learned. I can't say it was easy, but it was much less painful and more rewarding than what to me seems like cutting off an arm because you can't be bothered to learn how to use it in coordination with your other arm.

Later, I found out that my grandparents actually had somewhat of an open relationship, although it was obviously much more difficult back then and in a conservative society, so perhaps it is just in my genes?
If you are a toxic moron who will start badmouthing their former colleagues

Or are dealing with a genuinely painful day-to-day work situation and are struggling to keep a lid on it.

I get the point that venting about the problems of one's current or previous environments is bad form, and not anything anyone really wants to hear about it. But the touch of schadenfreude in your characterization of the (often very real and painful) situations these people are helping doesn't exactly help, either.

That would be extremely gross and wouldn't even work in some cases. E.g. a Javascript linter may rely on actual files in actual paths. And you can't do that for IDEs so you'll have to do a ton of extra work to get them to work with it.

Not worth it.
Since you're the one making the claim that they're making a come back, I'd love to hear your own personal story or some of the stories you've heard.

Personally I haven't noticed anything resembling a come back, but I'm certainly using them more than ever... and I'm loving it.
I'll definitely agree with this, I'd advise anyone who's not tied down to routinely go on vacations, and even consider moving.

Staying in old routines is comfortable, but to use myself as an example if I just stayed in la complaining about how horrible the city is, I'm robbing myself of a fuller life.

My plan right now is to move abroad for at least a few months or so. I really need to change up things
Yes.

edit: Wanted to leave it at that, but I should really clarify. I'm equating a group choosing the US constitution as their founding document with a group choosing Sharia law for the same purpose. If a person says they believe in democracy but doesn't believe in other people's right to make what looks like obviously bad decisions, they don't really believe in democracy.
I recently spent a week without my phone and it was incredible. When I got my phone again, I had hundreds of missed alerts and I realized 99.99% of them were not worth having. I'm now leaving my phone in another room rather than carrying it around. I'm really enjoying not getting interrupted by alerts or being tempted to look at it every now and then.

I wish I could just get a dumb phone, but I at least need communication apps like WhatsApp on my phone.
To be more precise, androgens (especially DHT) suppress inflammation in the meibomian glands.

I strongly recommend dissolving an oral pill of hyaluronic acid twice daily -do not swallow the pill whole, it won‘t dissolve and you will shit a tiny gelatine egg.

Besides that eye heating masks and lid-hygiene (e.g. blephacura) do wonders.

As for AR expression, I believe L-Carnitin should also improve it. Creatine should increase DHT.

But I am afraid to haphazardly increase my androgens or receptor expression because of my AGA.

As someone that had cataract surgery on both eyes in my early 30s, I just want to thank your profession for what you do.

Note: those were the words of that revisionist bastard Paul. The closest Jesus ever came to saying anything like that was "Render unto Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and unto God the things that are God's", and even there, there's a significant range of interpretation.
Here is how you can have a smartphone and enjoy it:

- Disable notifications from all applications that are not vital to your life. I enjoy instagram, but notifications are hard-off for me. I check it on my time.

- Turn off all sounds, period, only do vibrations

- Shift from being pushed information to pulling it. Only check apps, SMS, etc... when you want to check them, not when your phone buzzes or blinks at you.

- For loved ones, emergency access, most phones will allow you to define people that bypass this and will ring you.

That's it. Now you can still enjoy your awesome smartphone but on your own time, under your own intention, instead of someone else.

My phone only rings if my wife or family calls, and it only vibrates when I get an email. I keep it face down on another desk in my office, out of view, or sometimes in another room.
My bill is generally less than half of $100/mo and my phone was significantly less than $1,000. I also use Wi-Fi the majority of the time and still find my phone generally useful in areas where I don't service. Although admittedly, loss of service is a rarity for me.
Reminds me of the Roman cement that lasts for centuries as well.
The Dutch are interesting as they also have a strong agricultural bent.
If x87 and MMX registers don't support renaming then that means that they can't support OOO and speculative execution of these instructions. This is possible but seems unlikely to me.

That is, even though not a lot of x87/MMX code is executed these days (and even less is written) I would be surprised if the OOO/speculative-execution of the processor gets halted whenever these instructions are encountered.

Note that x87 instructions still get used in most 32-bit programs because the x87 registers are the defined way for functions to return floating-point results.

Which is to say, citation needed.
And it was, generally, valued. Last year's handbag is worthless, but next year's handbag? Priceless.
That sounds interesting. So I can program in F# and run it in Python? What are the limitations? Also, is the resulting code readable?
I wish we had a tiered set of safety requirements for vehicles. In my opinion, occupant safety should be much more negotiable than it is. A good example is the column thickness on modern vehicles. I'd gladly trade some roll-over protection for increased visibility.
I really don't think react-router provides enough functionality to justify the amount of churn it's generating. URL routing is not complicated and not hard. After getting dragged through a v3->v4 upgrade by a library we use, I put in a lint rule forcing all usages of it to go through a wrapper.
Fair warning, game mods can take over your life too. Though I'd agree they can be easier and often can build on the community of the game your modding.

Another risk with mods is the game owner can shut you down at any moment, if public. I'll probably never do another mod or reuse someone else's IP for anything beyond very small prototypes. There are just so many tools now that you shouldn't have to.

> Will Ruby make a comeback?

I don't know, but I certainly hope so. I started building web apps in Rails in 2007 and rode the wave till 2020, when I joined a company that ran on TypeScript, Go, and Haskell. I've since left said company.

There are several things that Rails got exceptionally "right":

- code generation that included test templates

- active record was much simpler than Hibernate

- a super dense and all powerful meta-programming enabled language behind the scenes (ruby is arguably the most compact and human readable language out there).

- rubygems was always robust, but is now mostly complete packaging platform.

But most importantly IMHO people back in 2007 started launching super hot looking Ajaxy apps on Rails, that turned up the heat and drew attention to Rails. There was a new coolness about how Basecamp worked, and early Twitter. It was all self updating and magical. And that's how the web app development should be.

Today, nodejs is no match in productivity or testing practices, TypeScript is a huge mess, and the cost is going to surface in the coming years as todays apps shift into maintenance and less development.

Once we have enough apps in maintenance mode in all four: ruby, Django, Go, and Larvel we'll see who wins the long term game.

Devs always want to work on the new shiny tech whether or not it's the best choice. This is because few do the exercise of identifying what they are optimizing for: dev speed, app reliability, or massive scale.

I am actually going back to the Rails/Ruby ecosystem, and will report here when I find a good spot.

How can we make Ruby come back? By introducing it into the stacks of companies as CLI tools, or mini services. I maintain ruby rules for Bazel build system, for instance, and my hope is that it will help support Ruby as a first class citizen within corp monorepos.
If the mall kicks you out, or raises rent so high you can't afford to stay, there will be other nearby places to go, and it's easy to retain your customers when you move somewhere else. If Apple kicks you off of the App Store or YouTube bans you, it's way, way harder to keep your users or audience.
Sorry about my impulsive correction:

It is Intel 7 (formerly known as Intel's 10nm process).

There is also Intel 4 (formerly known as Intel's 7nm process).
Yes it does. I find it really ironic too because a lot of the places praised by modern planning doctrine were allowed to spring up more organically according to need and less subject to such intense planning regulation.

It's even worse in that, just like people complain about the personality types that go into policing, I find there's a particular common personality type among planners: weak/mousey people that tend to be low on the totem pole of organic social hierarchies, but who are strongly opinionated and happily embrace their bureaucratic positions to exert power over people and to impose their agendas on the world.
I don't see how these numbers are possible. $12B means you need to have 1.2B players paying $10 each, or 120M players $100 each. That just does not seem feasible--there are only so many people in the world and most are not going to play your game. And the nature of these games is that most people never pay anything.
The difference is how they manipulate you psychologically to not realize how much you're spending. You can't just buy the thing, you need to buy a particular currency, and possibly do some in-game work, and also gamble with loot boxes where you're not very aware of the odds.

By the time you realize the thing you wanted was actually $600 (which you wouldn't have spent upfront) but you've already spent $500 without getting it, it feels unavoidable to go and spend another hundred. And then the cycle happens again and again, making you feel very much like you have a sickness.

Many people can effectively avoid all of this and be very happy not spending a dime and not feel any pressure at all, but the problem is the large, very large, sometimes underage, base of vulnerable people who are spending money they can't really afford on these games.
I think this is great improvement. (I own machines with intel and AMD processors). It feels like AMDs progress has lit a fire under intel to innovate. Competition seems to be back and I look forward to the progress next few years. I think the i5 not the i9 is the chip of note.

I'm using linux more and more and like open architecture PCs, so optimistic they can stay competitive with those SOC. Should be interesting how the linux scheduler deals with the different core types.

The architecture bumps to DDR5.0, and PCIe5.0 hopefully will help performance in the future too.

I can't answer your question OP, but I'd really like to try going smartwatch-only some day.

The things I really need a phone for are directions, making calls, listening to music/podcasts, and occasionally replying to short messages. I should be able to do all of that from a smartwatch. Anything more in-depth can and should wait until I'm at a computer and ready to focus.

I would need the right product to come along, though, and that might never happen.
Just because you can ask the same question about eating 3-4 meals per day DOES NOT mean that we can automatically assume that fasting might be better but is definitely not worse.

It could be better, worse, or the same.

We don't know. And there's no reason to assume that it might be better while it is definitely not worse (and therefore an obvious choice).
I never liked digital/virtual sharecropping. Hosting your own site might mean people can't discover you as easily, but if it means a service like Youtube/OnlyFans doesn't pull the rug from under your feet, then self-hosting is essential. I operate a BBS that has been going strong for over 15 years, and it's all self-hosted, well sort of (it's on a VPS) but the VPS provider is well-known and renowned and unlikely to go under anytime soon. The VPS provider also has many customers they wouldn't give up too easily.

That said: I have prepared myself if my BBS gets banned for whatever stupid reason. I've practiced and developed my own drill to get everything up and running again under a new provider should that happen. It's important to do this, because communities don't like down time and will go elsewhere like Discord etc if they notice a bunch of downtime on your server(s).
What I want to know: did they have to fill in their time reports in 8+ systems, one worse than the other?

When I was a subcontractor, the most I had to do was 3 (customer and 2 consultancies), and even that was a major hassle.
I hate that the gacha model (free game with millions of IAPs) is working. I refuse to play/buy them, and I worry that it's just the future.
Why would Sony spend so much making a single player offline game to get a one-time purchase when they can milk their customers tens of dollars a month for years.
