That was the precursor without vowels, IIRC. In my very limited experience, more experts seem to say the Greek alphabet was the first that qualified as such. But really, 'who was first' is a matter of definition, of course.
Left-wing anarchism comes in many flavors, and not all of them are hostile to the markets - think "freed markets" etc.

Speaking for myself, I'm probably closest to mutualism than anything else, and I just don't see how you can have a state that strong that doesn't inevitably lead to stratification and rigid hierarchy.

Conversely, I don't see how markets are the problem. Capitalism is a problem, sure - but capitalism requires the state! To accumulate capital indefinitely, you need abstract property rights, and then you need the state to maintain the registries of who owns what, and to enforce - with violence if need be - the owner's monopoly on the property. Conversely, if the government, or the society at large, simply refuses to acknowledge such property rights, how would Jeff Bezos become himself?

(Yes, ancaps themselves think that removing the state would usher hyper-capitalism, but I don't understand why everybody is so ready to accept that claim while ridiculing most everything else they have to say.)
Your medical records are the property of your doctor.
I have the opposite experience when hiking- The way back usually feels like it takes forever. I think it’s because I’m seeing things I’ve already seen, so it’s not as exciting as it was when I saw it the first time on the way in. Same thing for roadtrips too, if I take the same route both ways.
The logical outcome of giving any and all control over money to market mechanisms is anarcho-capitalism, where the market is the only thing that matters.

The logical outcome of anarcho-capitalism is feudalism, as people with more money concentrate more and more power with no state to stand in the way. Sooner or later you either do what Jeff Bezos wants or his Prime Forces will see that you are punished. Who's gonna stop them?
> Had they chosen Linux then that ATM would still be sitting there with just-an-outdated version of some embedded Linux distro.

That's wrong, they would have been in a position to update / maintain themselves their own distro or dedicate that to a third party company that has the knowhow to do so. This for more than 20 years without problems. Because they would DO have the code for it if they want it.

With proprietary solutions in the embedded system world, this is impossible to do. If your providers refuses to support your OS anymore, you're fucked and that's it. And if he wants to increase the cost of your support maintenance program per 10x because it's legacy, you're fucked too, just in an other way.

> Linux because Linux does not have a stable applications ABI between major releases: the software would need to be recompiled.

I disagre and for two reasons:

- first, if it's your software stack recompiling should not be a problem

- second, it is not true. Kernel ABI is stable (mostly). And running statically compiled binary between major kernel releases never have been a problem.

> infrastructure operators are not going to be happy having to do patch-tuesday and recompiling their software on a regular basis for hardware they'd really prefer to leave alone and stable.

Do they ?
Even on ATM, client software evolves and is updated. In their case, they just do it with the pain of a legacy system without being able to touch to the platform itself because they have no control on it.
Honestly I'm not sure if there even is a big reason.

The terminology doesn't feel right - I feel like I need to constantly remind myself what some of the terms mean compared to what I am used to, which I find occupies a tremendous amount of my cognitive capacity.

"The tutorials are shit" doesn't help. They really suffer from the problem of the author expects the reader(s) to know what it is they are being taught ahead of time. "Tutorial 1: how to make a component. Step 1: Run `ng component <name>`. Now you have a component." type deal. Now I'm left to my own devices to find out what a component really is, etc.

Another part is that it just isn't very exciting. I was/am more excited when using react or vue.

I've been maintaining angular apps (albeit lightly) for nearly 2 years at my current role, but even here react is being introduced to replace it.
Better: "Scaffold of the Neocortex". Repiles and mammals know what things are, and can reason about them, a little.

Human-level reasoning requires something like language, for generality. Particularly, to reason about reasoning - to argue, to see the argument of another, to see their point of view, to trade disimilar things, to "see where you went wrong", to deceive.

It's analogous to: animals are FSA; we are TMs.

You can argue for the intelligence of other animals, but they can't argue for yours.

> This definition does not really allow for the notion an individual's "own" Overton Window, which would something without any statistical properties, given it corresponds precisely with "what one person currently believes".

Sure, an individuals Overton window is “the range of policies that a politician can recommend without appearing too extreme” to a voter; in any context the Overton window is per dimension; an idea within the window on an individual sense is one which does not, on its own, rule the candidate out of consideration by that voter, its not the same as the single point the individal voter prefers; this is just exactly the usual sense of an Overton window where the polity has one viewpoint, not just of preferred policies but of which non-preferred ones are and are not deal breakers.

No, they’d use editors with mousing-heavy interfaces.
I think its because we are busier.

Let's see. I am a dad to two kids, a husband, with a day job as a software engineer, but working on my side project when the wife and kids have gone to bed. (yes I'm on HN now but I'm going to fire up gedit soon -- trust me.) I don't even know what free time means any more.

Back when I was a seven years old I had not a care in the world, was often bored. Time passed slooowly. I was sure my eighth birthday would never arrive. I turned 50 in June.

I’m not op but I have a very funny, related story.

In the nineties, my parents occasionally logged into my computer and stared at it for 15-20 minutes before going upstairs and turning on the television. Saving numbers in the computer box meant that I was breaking into the CIA and selling secrets to the Russians (while fornicating). Writing the same things down in a notebook was okay.

I've only used vim for three years and it's been a fantastic experience. Every time I'm in a normal editor I long for vim. I think the most important video I watched about vim was about text completion in a thoughtbot meetup [0]. There I learned about ctags, the jumplist and ways to complete words, sentences, lines and blocks of code.

Do you not believe that Jeff Bezos would gladly take the monopoly on violence from the state if it were offered? And without the state maintaining those registries, what would stop him from just laying claim to anything he wants?

And maybe it wouldn't be him, but somebody who's shown more propensity for violence, say Erik Prince. If we don't use the state to rob those people of their power first, there will be nothing in their way once we abolish the state.
What do you think about it? Feedback welcomed!

This seems like a anthropocentric view of the world. Planets moved immense distances, there were generation after generation of bacteria, mountains rose up and crumbled, seas were made and disappeared again.

Public facing?

Neither of these things are obvious or a fact.

No, they aren't effective in reducing spread. Singapore, Israel, UK, Wisconsin studies or even just public data on US infections all tell the same picture.
I know it’s silly, but Vim is single-handedly responsible for people thinking I “code fast” in interviews. I always chuckle when someone notes how fast I can manipulate code and I think about the learning-wall I hit when first picking up Vim.
At this stage of the space industry evolution, with the sufficient but still limited technology readiness of propulsion (for deep space exploration) and the much lower technology readiness of resistance in extreme environments (for onsite exploration and colonization), it seems to my modest rationale that such five startups are just aiming at minor or lateral goals? Especially considering that YC can really put anyone / anything interesting enough in direct contact with the most important and active people in the field? And the bottleneck, for both branches (propulsion, colonization) is current materials science & engineering, so that 20 years ago the world needed developers for the dotcom revolution, while today it needs materials? Just food for thought, obviously, so take my ramble for what it is.
Theoretically the pure-perl implementation will be immune to most categories of exploits that sloppy binary parsing runs into-- buffer overflows, use after frees, and so on.

That better security goes out the window once you start using eval(), of course.

No one is entitled to get early access to non released hardware. The outlets that do get access usually sign NDAs and they are not allowed to take demo units apart and you know what GAMERNEXUS also says in their videos that they don't sign these NDAs.

The spirit of HN was that it's usually pretty good moderated against trolls and flamebaits like the guy above.
Maybe I'm just not familiar with the Apple app store, but this listing doesn't really seem to say much about how it works (and I can't even enlarge the images?).

How does this work? How does it aid language learning? Is it for people who already speak multiple languages and want to learn an additional one, or is it for anyone trying to learn a second/third/etc language? Does it only speak in the language you're trying to learn? Does it switch back and forth, or explain itself? How does it "tutor"? Does it guide you in lessons or catch your language missteps somehow?
Wait, I was told the Nordic governments are the pinnacle of governance and they can do no wrong. Was I misled? This sounds worse than local governments here in the US. Spending $117M and 5 years to put out something that doesn't work, and then fighting any attempts to fix the situation - if you didn't mention the country, most people would have just assumed it's us. :-)

“Well thought out languages with rigorous semantic descriptions” never win because those are mostly meaningless metrics. The ability to get things done and the barrier to entry are the only metrics that count. See: JavaScript.

While Rust is well thought out it’s killer feature is it’s the somewhat unique ability to allow people to get things done relatively quickly (sometimes/often with the expressiveness you’d expect from Ruby or Python) whilst also offering gigantic correctness guarantees and a (initially) low barrier to entry.

But hey, Zig has a reference document. Watch out World!
Has anyone tried typing on an 8" keyboard like this? I had a 10.1" netbook back in 2010 and loved typing on it.

Otherwise, is there any modern equivalent to a 10" netbook that isn't a super expensive tablet? Ideally something I could install Linux on and use for light programming and SSHing.

I'm also interested in foldable keyboards that I could use with my phone over Bluetooth or USB C.
USA exports used solar panels for disposal in trash dumps 'over there'. The entire lifecycle of electric usage is important and easily overlooked.

Be precise with legislation. For example, some States forbid landfill of whole tires. This led to collection of per-tire disposal fee and the landfills purchasing new wheel loader to scoop whole tires into new shredder which uses new conveyor to pile up the tire shreds. Wheel loader then scoops shreds and sprinkles the shreds into landfill.
I think that addresses my opinion to build passion projects.

I sometimes ask in interviews if they've checked out my repositories. I have a bunch, some skeletons, most unfinished, some doing an interesting thing whether large or small.

The answer is usually "no." This is fellow devs, not HR. Which is why I think one should create projects for fun, and learning.

As a person that sometimes does interviews, I make it a point to look at other's repositories, and I'm sure we'd have a great conversation about yours :)

Given that in my experience projects aren't looked at I think your post describes a really good _projects_ section on a resume.
You........ You just took my weird feelings about this to an extreme new level....... Guess it's gonna be another night of contemplating my life choices, huh.
So adjusting the law to ensure we don't stifle innovation in a new industry with regulations that were designed for technology before it's time is going right to feudalism. And it's the government who is going to save us. This has got to be a troll.
If the DoD disappeared tomorrow, wouldn’t pretty much the entire world immediately build up their militaries?

They are heavy polluters, and I certainly hope they do everything in their charge to clean up as best they can, but if the entire world under the USAF’s umbrella suddenly lacked that support, I’d suspect you’d see quite the carbon emissions from the immediate arms build ups and regional conflicts.

It’s not like the rest of the world just loves peace, we don’t really exist in some sort of vacuum unfortunately.
The known is practically nothing compared to the unknown. What we know is inconceivably less than a rounding error.

> To make that a fair test the tester would have had to crank those settings up as far as they go, or until they match the Intel processor.

The test was perfectly fair because they used the CPU as delivered, as the average user would use it.

Nobody is buying these CPUs to overclock them to a specific power usage. They're either running them stock or running them at whatever comfortable overclock they can get away with.

Test stock versus stock and overclocked versus overclocked. Trying to normalize to specific power consumption doesn't make sense for enthusiast builds.

What do you mean? There is nothing special about naming classes and grouping styles together that is exclusive to a design system.

However, I truly hope you figure out what makes you happy and wish you the best of luck.
Reader mode fixes the issues quite well.
We use Angular for our large realtime process control application in place of a lower-level UI (like Qt). Having all of the tools you mentioned above has given us an organized codebase with components that we've been able to successfully reuse across the application itself and across different products. Having to work around "the Angular way" can be annoying sometimes, but to be honest at the same time it's nice to not have to make decisions that Angular has already made for you (routing, modules, etc)

Suppose Uber issued $1B of stock, sold the stock on the open market, then gave employees a $1B bonus. Did Uber incur a $1B expense by paying the bonus, and if so, did they also earn an offsetting $1B in revenue by selling this stock, so this set of transactions should net to zero on the earnings statement? Isn’t this the same thing as stock compensation with an extra step? What am I missing here?
I agree with this completely. As I get older, a much more significant amount of my time is spent on the future. Planning for social events, planning when to do housework or chores, planning projects for work. I think you also do more long-term planning at work as you get older. When I was 22, three months seemed like a long time for a project and a long way away for events. Now I know a quarter (12 weeks) is not much time at all, and getting event invitations for a year in advance seems normal, and time slips by in between.

To your point, meditation helps me quite a bit (along with long cardio and limiting media consumption)
It seems to me space is a social science type bet.

Much like each and every climate change related tech.

There is no guarantee that the public will be interested in space or climate change 10 or 20 years from now, and space missions which are not telecommunications satellites entirely depend on the goodwill of taxpayers to keep providing the financing.

The alternative model to taxpayers money has been private investors believing that space would somehow change and start yielding some more standard ROI after decades of atypical ROI (mostly morale boost for the nation every time a rocket went up). But that's just the financial capital part, the revenue of the aforementioned companies still comes from Government contracts.
That was a really good story. Thank you.
lol SpaceX, or anyone for that matter, didn't learn shit from Armadillo. AA was bunch of hacks doing garage projects, they were never close to commercializing anything and were more like Mythbusters-esque group having fun than professional engineers. Don't know about Masten. SpaceX did receive a shitload of handholding from NASA at the start before outpacing them.
I don’t think the distinction between framework and library matters that much. People choose between react or angular (or others).
It seems unlikely that language is needed to learn abstract concepts, otherwise animals wouldn’t be able to learn.
We are getting into nerdy arguments. React is by far a framework, as every library that you use will be highly influenced by its constructs and rendering engine, be it React Router, Redux, or others from the Hooks ecosystem. Many say it is just a library, but in practice, when trying to bring JS vanilla libraries, there's always that edge case where it conflicts with the virtual DOM.
"almost noone" is doing a lot of work for you here.
Depending on how you have it installed you could have your package management system automatically install the updates. They aren't always perfect though, I've had at least one Gitlab update that required manually running migrations commands since the ones in the update script failed for some reason. I wouldn't trust doing it automatically.

And I'm not sure about gitlab, but their are often mailing lists for security updates for major software packages.
I’m 38 and I’ve never owned a smartphone. In 2012, my boss made me get a cellphone so he could stay in touch with me at a conference. I bought a flip phone for $15 at Office Depot and used that for awhile. Overall, outside of work it was pretty pointless. No calls were ever worth answering and the T9 texting was annoying.

I have a Google Voice number that I use for calls/texts from my iPod Touch or iPad. For awhile it worked with my 3G Kindle so I could text on the go without Wi-Fi. Then Amazon turned off the free 3G and I haven’t had cellular internet since.

Really don’t think I’m missing anything significant.

I've often read here that Lisp is a language that teaches you new ways of thinking about code. I've implemented a big Scheme project in the past and although "code is data" is interesting, I didn't have any "aha!" moments with it.

However, with Tcl, I had some "aha!" moments! It messes with your head the way it feels like a shell and a programming language at the same time. Everything (kinda) is a string. Building a UI is as easy as running grep or find. It's nuts!

And the least expected place to have "aha!" moments for me was learning advanced Make techniques. Don't know why, but it changed the way I think about programming as well :)
