Repeatedly concatting a string is the fastest way I am aware of to build a longer one in Javascript. (This has been deliberately optimized for) I believe PHP this might also be the case for, or at least very fast. Perl might be pretty fast at this but I could be wrong.
It's clickbait.

To address the content, I know many long distance runners try to keep their body mass down. For instance, most athletes benefit from weight training, but I know (incidentally male) runners who avoid weight training because they don't want to carry extra muscle around.
The trouble I see with this is that you may have exposed your relatives to T&C's they didn't agree to. Perhaps some future situation where a sibling gets to pay higher insurance rates or similar.

Man, I can't wait for that to be implemented.

So often I want to ask a question to someone, but not disturb them in their off hours. It is not urgent enough to keep them up at night, it is urgent enough to me needing an answer the next morning. Emails have become too formal for most people now, so I don't like sending them unless absolutely necessary. This is especially true for those working across timezones or night owls like me.

Now, my ADHD low working memory brain would love to queue these messages and forget about them. Rather than cluttering my todo list ( big no-no) or even worse keeping them in my head for an extra 12 hours.

It seems to be trivial to implement and I am honestly surprised it isn't a feature already.
Possibly so. But it's a hell of an assumption to make and not a very kind one. Maybe you were triggered yourself and so that's not entirely fair.

That is indeed quite a weird restriction. Sure that law was made by Jews? I think many would oppose such a move. On the other hand some feel compelled to enact such laws because there are groups tell funny stories about Jews or Israel. Any more examples?

it's become a common thing in media lately.

This is how The New Yorker as done this since forever. If you don't enjoy the 'journey' of their writing at least as much as the 'destination', then they are not the publications for you.

Although I agree that the style is being copied by more and more people and outlets, many which don't have the skill to pull it off.

Hi everyone,

I built this small app (PoC), while doing research about what my target audiences want.

My favorite method is reading Reddit comments to find out what they like/want/willing to pay.

Reddit is great b/c it is community focus. If I want to learn about Space community, then I would go /r/space.

If a post in that subreddit has a lot of upvotes, then I know the audience in that niche like something in the post. Then just read the comment to find out, if they're willing to pay for it. Don't spend time with low upvotes, the idea may sell, but not that great.

I've used this method for almost 2 years and created a few winning products which has 6 figures revenue.

After finding out what the target audience wants, then everything else is easy. Just hired someone (in your budget) to do it or you can do it yourself.

Don't hesitate if you see other people did a product first. You can improve it by reading comments too, or do something similar. You don't have to be the first one.

Road map:
- Doing something similar with facebook group, IG, Tiktok

I think it's a relic of old-school journalistic writing. People today just do not have the attention span or desire to read a meandering backstory. The author started writing for the New Yorker in 1992, so it seems reasonable that he is more old-fashioned in his composition.
Another favorite: surround organic fields with non-organic fields that form a pesticide semi-barrier and still provide some fertilizer runoff.
There are additional incentives other than monetary when it comes to the culture wars. I know some who have left lucrative lifestyles for something that is more meaningful for them.

You know that some public key had some amount of cryptocurrency and then it went somewhere else, possibly into a cryptocurrency tumbler. You don't know the identity of the person holding it and as soon as they have enough to buy something they can stop using that now-empty wallet.

Also, Monero solves this more robustly, doesn't it?

I just bought some amazing apples from "Gorzynski Ornery Farm", which was formerly "Gorzynski Organic Farm".

They have been farming without synthetics since the late 70's, and dropped the "organic" because the government definition made it meaningless.

https://medium.com/@NYCGreenmarkets/from-organic-to-ornery-7...

He had lobbied for years for this very law, and was devastated to see exceptions for chemicals that, in his words, “are so destructive to the environment they shouldn’t even be allowed in conventional agriculture,
let alone organic.” (Allowing those 142 chemicals, by the way, is just one of sixty-three issues to which farmers like John so ardently object.) As he saw it, the certification he’d dedicated much of his life to building was now so lax that it was effectively meaningless.

It took almost a year to come to grips with, but after twenty years of being certified organic by the state, the Gorzynski family decided to give up the term rather than participate in a certification they could no longer stand by.

Try them out if you're in Union Square in NYC! (Saturdays only, through Christmas)

----

edit: Try out Russet apple varieties, e.g. Golden Russet. They are not sold in stores, presumably because of the way they look.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russet_apple

I've been eating them from the markets in SF and NY for a few years without knowing the name.

As a mnemonic think "Russet" == rough or rusty, but it tastes good. They are very sweet and tart depending on the season, but really the density / crispness / freshness is what stands out.

All things being equal, unknown produce that looks ugly is more likely to taste good. Because produce that both looks ugly and tastes bad will naturally disappear from the market. Produce that looks good and tastes bad can persist for many years (e.g. the monoculture of red delicious apples in the USA a few decades ago).
The New Yorker magazine has been around for almost 100 years and has been famous for the length of its articles almost as long. Tina Brown, the editor in the 1990s famously made the articles shorter than they had been, and it hasn’t crept back up since she left.

All this to say, sure, the article is long. But the New Yorker always has done it this way and this is not anything about the media lately. If anything, long articles are a holdover from a long previous time.

Also, all media styles and don’t have to appeal to everyone. The magazine has its audience and you may not be a part of it. Neither aspect is a bad thing.
The issue is the sentiment that many free speech advocates are significantly less concerned where freedom of speech or expression at risk is being left wing.

When it is right wing suppressing speech or freedom, all is cool. When someone protests them, suddenly the protest itself is threat to free speech. The insuation is that free speech is less likely to be invoked to protect left or extreme left speech.

You can go to the settings and opt out of their Research consent document now, which also explains how the data is used. I think they 've been pretty clear about how they plan to use the data of existing customers.

There is also the danger of people having a false sense of privacy by opting out of 1 or 2 genetic tests. This is shared information between relatives and the population at large, not exactly top secret data. The degrees of separation between you and me are 2-3 , so it s very easy to identify people indirectly , hence why it was possible to solve decades-old crimes.

I think our genetic information is less private than the contents of our brains, in general.
Good point again, but no. MacOS.
I don't think it is just a preference for system files and application files. For documents, sure.

The problem with this type of journalism isn't just the length. When you make informing facts a literary adventure, you inevitable inject a bunch of personal bias (NewYorker has a huge liberal bias) and motifs that have a tone of a particular axe to grind.

It is a chore to read these. I am not a fan.

To their credit, it is well written in terms of creativity.
The Trials of Portable Coding
You second paragraph is wrong. SNPs are interesting because they exist in a significant part of the population.

But a new mutation never reported before can as dangerous as you want. A case we found: a woman already developed an illness in her adult life, lets supose it was renal failure. We suspected a genetic root, so we sequenced her exome, founding a never reported mutation that frameshifted a gene previously associated with renal failures. We quickly panel-sequenced her parents and children to check if they had the mutation, which none of them had. So the woman had a de novo mutation in heterozygosis that their little kids were lucky enough to avoid. Imagine the relief. Not useful? I disagree.
This may not be terribly popular, and its admittedly just conjecture, but I'm of the opinion that its less about the quantity of social media, and more how one interacts with it and even more so consumes it.

Some platforms are clearly more toxic than others, though I'm increasingly of the opinion that they are all pretty toxic, just different flavors of "world outlooks" to choose from.

I feel that those that actively participate (commenting, posting, responding, reacting) are more affected and more caught in the feedback loop. Those that more or less passively read these platforms, rarely interact, and largely work to keep "perspective" seem to have less of a tough time on it and allow it to impact their outlooks and moods less.

Those that tend to interact more seem to get caught in a sort of feedback loop. measured/Nuanced/Moderate or considerate takes are generally frowned upon on most of the major platforms these days. Outrage and simplistic viewpoints reign supreme, and most will bury the rest, forcing even those with moderate stances to either "consider a side" when continuing or just outright not partake. And all of these seem to be, relatively speaking, vocal minorities.

There are plenty of people that consume stuff and just dont have anything useful to say, or just dont have the energy to say it and defend it etc. Of course this seems to depend on the platform as well, for example I would never post this take on reddit....

With that said, I go agree generally, that these are toxic and create unbalanced viewpoints and world views. As Dave Chappelle said, "twitter isnt real", and to an effect that true. Twitter, reddit, youtube, facebook, dont necessarily pan out to the larger population's opinion as a whole, at least where its measured (such as in politics and polling)
Not envy, no. I think you're looking at the problem from a very limited angle. I would classify it as more disillusion at the system that enables there to be billionaire owners of a company with workers on welfare.
I have everything I need, so I'm not envious. I want to live in a society where as many others can live in comfort and not just a few at the top.

You make a big assumption that they are even organic.

There are close to billion devices with an ad-blocker today and chance is they would still continue to do so even if all ads magically became privacy-respecting (for example just 90s type banners). Thing is people really do not like or want ads on the web.

I’ll kick this comment thread off.

I completely deleted all of my pretty well followed and active social accounts (Facebook, instagram, and snap). Not deactivate, delete. At first there is a large emotional penalty I felt by “disconnecting” from people, however it’s been well over two years and my life is pound for pound better. I do miss interacting with some friends at times but honestly if they’re real friends, I call or text.

Social took away a lot of my attention and disconnected me from reality. I’m not saying do what I do, but for me it was a game changer.

I remember when this news first came out, and I heard a lot of folks scoff "Ha, see, I knew organic was always a scam", but I think that position misunderstands some very important details about this story.

Randy Constant wasn't selling organic produce, or really much of anything that you think of buying "organic" at the grocery store. Because, for the most part, there tend to be a lot of visual differences between organic and conventional: conventional apples, for example, tend to be huge and spotless, while organic are almost always smaller and less "pristine". Similarly, stuff like organic, grass-fed milk tastes much different than conventional milk.

I've always been of the opinion that, as a consumer choice, organic makes sense for certain types of products where you eat the skin and all, e.g. apples, vegetables, etc.

In this case, though, Mr. Constant was selling "organic" grain primarily as livestock feed. The idea that you can really tell, or there is any difference at all, in the meat of livestock fed organic vs. conventional is extremely far fetched. Sure, there way be some tiny difference, but it's not like conventional methods include spraying with heavy metals. Most of the pesticides, etc. sprayed on conventional crops certainly don't show up in the meat of animals that eat these crops.

So this whole episode did expose the scam of organic livestock feed, but I don't think it's fair to stretch that to organic products generally.

That quote doesn't say what you're describing, and of all the things to get upset about on the internet, imagining that other people enjoy human sacrifice and then getting mad about it is surely among the most avoidable.

Perhaps it would be helpful to explain how this becomes a moderation issue. It's because we can't play both indignation games and curiosity games at the same time. The former very quickly drowns out and burns up the latter. HN is supposed to be for curiosity games. Therefore when people start playing indignation games (and that is certainly not just you—the temptation is ubiquitous) we try to get them to stop and to return to the intended spirit of the site.
