I think the differences are not fundamental, but that the terminal inputs / shells did not evolve as much as they could or should have. There have been discussions all over the world on the merits of command-line vs. GUI, but too little of how tomorrow's command-line can be better than today's command-line.

Things DID improve, e.g. tab-autocomplete evolved very well. But that's not enough, and editor's command palettes show that. I actually thought I'll give some more quick examples than discoverability, but then I realized that you could fill a whole document with them...
That seems a bit pedantic; the client itself prints

Yeah, we seem to contract second level support from the lowest bidder. Tick, we have a support contract, regardless of how dubious it's value.

TFA mentioned explicitly that CB's proposal (not approved by the electorate) was a tax on unoccupied vacation homes with an exemption for owns who house one local worker on the property for at least 6 months of the year.

It'd be cool to see some of Delos start to get released. Given how small it is, & how much bragging there is about how few lines of code engines take to write (Log Structure Protocols in Delos; 2 comments: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29351723 ), it should be easy to start getting folks a bit more excited.

Conversely, I think one of the interesting things Facebook did around React was talk-the-shit-up out of Flux & how easy & basic it was, while not releasing any code. There were years of letting the idea gestate, various re-implementations, before Facebook finally released their own implementation. Which I recall as being quite small & generally not that significant. But there was already a strong community happening. Works/re-interpretations like Redux or the dozens of other implementations (I'd done some Reflux for example) would not have happened if Facebook had simply dropped the code.

It's feasible. Perhaps not for everyone.

If you're serious about this (and I don't think you ought to be) the only way you're going to control it is by making sure the land your food comes from is accountable to you. You can certainly find out whether the agricultural land your food is grown on was once something else. You can certainly reasonably guess if there may be high concentrations of pollutants deposited in the soil by examining the history of the land. Maybe the land being used was once near heavy industry, maybe it was a site that once heavily used insecticides, etc.

For example, perhaps the farmland you're looking at is adjacent to an interstate. Leaded gas used for decades will have polluted the topsoil to a greater extent here than on other, more remote, land. You could choose not to buy produce from the interstate farm. This is easy enough to do. Sourcing is one of the most basic skills people ought to have.

I don't think people ought to be worried and go out of their way, to be honest. A great way to do this at home is to grow your own produce in raised garden beds with good, clean, fresh, topsoil.

> More humid air with higher specific heat capacity

OK, so I should add a little more nuance:

* With more water vapor in the air, the air has a little more heat capacity

* With more water vapor in the air, the temperature band for comfort is a little narrower

* With more water vapor in the air, air conditioners need to work extra hard to provide the same cooling.

That is, the more water there is in the air to begin with, the more will condense and return its heat of vaporization to the room.

The three main "classical" engine design companies in USSR were Energomash, headed by Valentin Glushko, KBKhA, headed initially by Semyon Kosberg, and KBKhM, headed by Alexey Isayev. Of course there is Kuznetsov's bureau, but that was doing many different things, like aircraft engines and later gas pumping machines for natural gas pipes. This video shows works of Energomash and KBKhA, but no works of Isayev's KBKhM are shown - they concentrated on spacecraft engines - and that's a pity, as KBKhM had a lot of results in pushing the envelope in rocket engines technology.

So... waiting for the next chapter?
That was classic.

As a cybersecurity nerd, I have to say it. Your and my projects aren't exactly privacy friendly. They can be developer and user friendly. However, no library that works with embed, iframe or api call can claim to be privacy friendly. This is because they force users to connect to an external resource. Algolia API can track visitors by collecting ip addresses and http referer headers. It may also place cookies on their browsers. If you're determined to make such an assertion, you'll need to write a proxy to isolate users from the external api. However, this will create a server dependency, and static pages do not have such a possibility.

> They spent more time pandering to the CCP than being a /World Health Organization/.

Where do you even get this nonsense? Seriously, do you really believe that the WHO spent more time pandering to the CCP than to being a World Health Organization? If you do then I am really at a loss on how to get you out of that because it is so far from what I've seen that I suspect you are looking at this through some kind of lens that magnifies the relatively insignificant first two weeks or so relative to the remainder of what is now almost two years of non-stop effort to help curb this pandemic.

They certainly aren't perfect, but at least they are trying and the bulk of the people that are - unsuccessfully - trying to link this to some kind of shadowy Chinese control are typically found on the extremes of the spectrum trying hard to assign blame for all this rather than to get it resolved.
As a young kid on one of those "competitive" jobs, I've always wondered about this. Do you genuinely encourage them to stay, or do you secretly wish them to move on to better work as well? Surely getting stuck there for a decade isn't the best thing for their career.
Sounds like a problem that'll fix itself if no businesses can hire. Unfortunately it will probably be on a long time frame.

I wish the WHO could name things more consistently.

- They did not rename the Ebola virus the same way the renamed the virus first discovered in Wuhan (as COVID 19).

- And they are happy to keep the SARS backronym in SARS-CoV-2, since SARS was first discovered in Hong Kong SAR.

- Now they skip over the Xi variant, although the Delta variant (or the name Corona itself) did cause some confusion earlier.

If they want to be classy in naming, can they be more classy to people outside of mainland China?
Dress appropriately for the season and you'll be just fine. If you wear warm clothes that cover your arms, your hands will be warmer too. Poor bloodflow to your hands is a consequence of your core loosing too much heat; your body compensates for that by reducing bloodflow to the extremities. Warm clothing makes gloves utterly unnecessary at 10C.

The WEC had an amazing sub-story running in small boxes below the main pageset, I can't remember the details now, it was like Flann O'Brien who put an entire seconary plotline in the footnotes of the "dalkey archive" and/or the "third policeman"

This was a little continuing story, episodic, in 2-3 paragraphs per page, and then a hiatus, and then a bit more ..

There was also a lot of very odd folk wisdom. I remember one about curing warts by digging the living shit out of them with a swiss army knife.
That does sound right. Apologies if my tone was rude earlier I was posting with little sleep.

I believe you want state sync and RPC integrated because you want a meaningful order to events.

Say a bomb exploding is done via an RPC call for legacy reasons and now position is via state sync. Youd want to ensure the explosion was ordered in respect to position updates to ensure it goes off in the right place.
Another way of describing this process might be "let the people who work in the town take all of the pain, and essentially force them to leave, and only at the very conclusion of the process will those with the money to own 2nd homes there feel any noticeable pain, at which point, the town's economy will have been decimated, and a massive amount of opportunity cost will be required in order to restart it".

No thanks.

Funny, but the first thing that came to my mind reading the study abstract was ham in Spain - particularly its ubiquity in Andalusia, where I lived for a few years. There are only two kinds of restaurants in Granada - those that serve ham, and those that are Halal. I developed a theory that it had to do with forcing pork onto Muslim and Jewish populations during the Reconquista. It still serves as a form of self-segregation today (although you could argue that the actual self-segregation is by practitioners of Halal and Kashrut diets - and I say this as a Jamon-loving Jew who feels sorry for my people who can't enjoy a bit of pig). Interesting to learn there's some truth behind my suspicion.
We help you find leads on Reddit and send personalized Reddit DMs and chats
Reddit is an incredibly powerful platform for driving traffic to your website, building brand awareness and generating leads. With over half a billion users, Reddit is the 6th most visited site in the US (Alexa). The problem with this huge audience is that there are hundreds of subreddits (niche communities) you can potentially target which makes it extremely difficult to know where to start.WE manually direct message users who are a match and are looking for your solution. We have been using this method ourselves, and it has worked quite well.
It’s probably around whether the pendant aspect was a liberal interpretation. This still fits within the current hypothesis on human development.
In the beginning of any outbreak of a new disease there is a scarcity of information and mistakes are always going to be made. You can already write part of the story here for the next pandemic in case you are so inclined.

That's pretty easy to criticize from the sidelines. At the same time: if the pandemic had been much milder you would be here ranting about how the WHO got it all wrong again and they cried wolf for no particular reason if only to grab more power, make money for big pharma with unused vaccines and managed to scare us all for nothing.

They can't do it right, it's always going to be too much or too little, and it's always the same groups complaining about this.
I agree we should be skeptical of the WHO, but they are valuable as a coordination mechanism. I don’t see a scenario where we can restart a truly global health agency from scratch, and I don’t think a series of bilateral or multi-lateral arrangements will work as well.
For the skier, maybe not. How about the line cook who prepares breakfast at a hotel, diner or other restaurant?

Plenty of things are widely published without charging money for them, and things are sometimes sold but privately to a limited audience (e.g. Kit Williams' artworks) which I wouldn't consider to be publication.
Apologies for the delayed response. What you're describing is not novel to crypto. Citadel is a wholesaler, but plenty of other participants quote firm bid/offer prices on real exchanges (where the wholesaler sends their exhaust). In the US equity space there is RegNMS that seeks to model the marketplace as a single entity, so it's a bad example; but there are plenty of other examples of non-fungible products that trade more similarly to the crypto markets. For example, there are gold markets across the world with slightly different quality standards, units of measurement, delivery standards (or cash settlement rules), expiration dates, etc.

How did they get to be able to vote? As TFA describes, they could afford property within the incorporated propery of CB, unlike those forced to find places to live outside it. Their wealth gave them access to the vote, and they are using their votes to further their own interests.

Leaky vaccines in general can create worse mutations of the disease, not specific to mRNA vaccines. See Marek’s disease:

> The first Marek's disease vaccine was introduced in 1970. The disease would cause mild paralysis, with the only identifiable lesions being in neural tissue. Mortality of chickens infected with Marek's disease was quite low. Current strains of Marek virus, decades after the first vaccine was introduced, cause lymphoma formation throughout the chicken's body and mortality rates have reached 100% in unvaccinated chickens. The Marek's disease vaccine is a "leaky vaccine", which means that only the symptoms of the disease are prevented.
> I also know people who got a dose of vaccine, read propaganda, became skeptical and delayed their second dose for a long time.

Ironically, if only they were lucky enough to not get infected meanwhile and managed to eventually change their mind, that may actually turn out for the better since additional vaccine doses seem to produce stronger antibody response when delayed.
About this section:

> Unfortunately, as the ??? shows, the different output arrays have different lengths – a u16 would be 2 bytes and a u64 8 bytes – and so the Rust trait system at the time of this writing is (to my knowledge) not powerful enough to represent this trait as is.

It seems to me that this is possible using const generics.
If you define your EndianBytes like this:

trait EndianBytes<const N: usize> {
fn be_bytes(self) -> [u8; N];
fn le_bytes(self) -> [u8; N];
}

Then provide a concrete length with each impl:

impl EndianBytes<4> for u32 {
fn be_bytes(self) -> [u8; 4] {
self.to_be_bytes()
}
fn le_bytes(self) -> [u8; 4] {
self.to_le_bytes()
}
}

(I've renamed their methods to avoid conflicting with u32::to_be_bytes to make it easier to read)

Then that allows you to use the EndianBytes type as long as you remain generic over both the value type and its length:

fn write<T: EndianBytes<N>, const N: usize>(val: T) {
println!("{:?}", val.be_bytes());
}

fn main() {
write(0x1234u16);
write(0x12345678u32);
}

This code (plus an impl for EndianBytes<2> for u16) works for me on 1.51 stable.

EDIT: I thought about doing this with an associated constant, ie:

trait EndianBytes {
const LENGTH: usize;
fn be_bytes(self) -> [u8; Self::LENGTH];
fn le_bytes(self) -> [u8; Self::LENGTH];
}

However it turns out that this kind of usage is not quite supported yet: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/60551
That sounds like mild food or pet allergies.

TFA describes a town where (a) construction is limited by forces beyond the town's control (geography, federal land ownership) and (b) construction (at least of certain kinds of housing) is prevented by existing residents who vote against it.

The state of housing construction in Crested Butte does not sound as if it is governed by any sort of notion of "fiscal soundness" at all.

What does this have to do with religion?

Secular ideologies killed about a two hundred million people in last century alone and nearly destroyed all of civilization.

Secular Totalitarians were putting people in gas chambers and gulags by the 10s of millions 'In The Name Of Whatever' (and of course, about 1/2 of those secular ideologies were specifically anti-religious).

If you look at a map of Europe, you can see the 'near term effects' of living under Soviet Authoritarianism quite obviously.

That said, I doubt very much that 'The Spanish Inquisition' has strongly material effects today, rather, those groups who were 'On The Side of Power' were more likely to prosper, than those on 'Other Sides', in all eras, in all cases.

Vienna 'prospered' as the HQ of Hapsburg 'Empire', some other places, would have not been so well off, obviously.

By bringing down the price of a 2nd home in a mountain resort town, the locals can also more easily afford to live in one. That is, if it were easy to magically create more mountain towns, without other effects on supply and demand.
There also are wealthy people who just buy or rent an entire floor of a hotel or a cruise ship suite as a second (or fifth) residence. So according to the logic of Airbnb, the entire town is essentially now a hotel of this nature.

I don't have a house in a mountain resort area, but I do have one by the beach (not on it, but 5 minutes walking) in a town/area that gets significant summer tourist traffic. I have it because that's where I lived for a decade, but pre-COVID, I moved to the bay area for career reasons. I plan to live in it again one day, so I'd hate to have to sell it - in the meantime it's rented to people we know at a significant discount (like, a third of market rate these days) because they needed somewhere to live and we don't want a vacant home across the country. We didn't intend to buy a second home or a rental, but it became that. What happens in that sort of situation in places like Tirol?
