I see you submitted the same link yesterday but didn't get any traction. Genuinely curious if HN allows consecutive re-submissions? Couldn't find anything in the guidelines / dang's comments either.

Anyway, I'm working on a Show HN myself and it would be great to know if it breaks any rules to submit the same project again especially if it doesn't get traction previously.
Today is also Buy Nothing Day for those with different values.

Our mainstream culture generally says growing the GDP helps everyone, that "a rising tide lifts all boats." Some of us see the evidence pointing the other way and avoiding needless shopping helping people more.
I don't have faith in the process anymore. Wiki-lawyering to remove content, is too effective. To what end? Saving disk space?

I'm no longer motivated to fight deletionism in my domain. I don't want to spend time that is not appreciated.

I suspect that as soon as a page is tagged for deletion by someone, others that enjoy being the arbiters of what is and is not WP, flock there. If they lack interest in the topic, they will vote to remove with many technical reasons. Statements that others do find it relevant or interesting, are simply ignored.

This smells a lot of the classic "Worse is Better" discussion [0]. Back then, it was Scheme people insisting on correctness and C people insisting on pragmatism. It's no surprise to me that Rust, a language with a heavy focus on correctness, attracts the correctness-over-pragmatism crowd.

The author is a "worse is better" programmer who finds themselves surrounded by "the right thing" people. I think the addendum the author adds a year later in the top comment is the right insight: fork away. This keeps the "the right thing" people happily obsessed with getting everything right, without the author being blocked on moving faster.

Private schools and academies exist right now. The rich have no problem exiting the public school system no matter where they are.

So, why is it that all parents aren't taking advantage of this? Oh, right, they can't pay for it.

Parents magically think that something they already are unwilling to pay for will magically get cheaper the moment you bring the "free market" into the discussion.

And, to be fair, that will be true for some students. If your child is abnormally big or abnormally smart, charter schools will accommodate them.

If, however, your child has any behavioral issues--don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out. ADHD accommodation--bye, bye. Threaten to commit suicide or cutting behaviors--you're gone. Depressed and failing because your parents are divorcing--see ya. Got into a catfight over a boyfriend--yeah, that's on social media--you're out of here.

If your child isn't perfect, they will get punted. And generally those parents screaming the loudest, funnily enough, have the children who cause the most issues.

Everybody assumes their child won't be the one on the short end of the stick. Everybody will be in for a rude awakening.
I had similar issues parsing the question.

I've noticed a marked uptick in almost-but-not-quite comprehensible questions in the last few months in various internet venues, like Discord and Slack.

Having run my own MegaHAL[1] on IRC back in the days, it made me think about if someone is having fun with a new generation AI chat bots...

Not saying that is the case here though.

This is reminiscent of colonial generals denouncing the ambush tactics of guerillas as cowardly. If they were men, they would fight in the open, etc.
I will respawn as a barbarian if we create a European federation. I think this is populism from Scholz to pick up naive voters. I mean I understand the want to be part of something greater and I like all the countries in the EU, but this would basically be a foul compromise for everyone. The rest seems decent. It won't be implemented tomorrow and we have to wait if they keep their word.
So if one's standpoint is ignored and "noble" enough, it is acceptable to talk children into anxiety disorders so that these noble ideas will be acted upon? I find this morally questionable, but that's just me.
I dunno, this seems like a perfectly reasonable tool. Saying "what was the double angle formula for sin, again?" or "what was the error term in Stirling's approximation" doesn't mean that you don't understand the fundamentals.

My point it that it is a defined behaviour of the DOM API which is generally implemented in C++ and exposed to Javascript environment. It behave exactly the same way if you use bindings for any other language. It's not an ECMAScript defined feature.

You can also implement exactly this behaviour in any language so how is this then a Javascript language issue?

This is a great execution on your part, I have been planning to create a website, and then I saw this post; I had fun tinkering at the shuffle editor. I think I'll consider this one for later.
As long as their price is high and availability low I am kind of supportive of existence of such a market because although I'm supportive of the measures taken by the governments, including the EU Green Pass, I do acknowledge the risks of total control and I'm happy that this marketplace demonstrates that the total control does not exists.

Rebels should exist, no matter how ridiculous or unfair their cause is. Every now and then, rebels have a point and when they don't have a point they still develop methods to rebel and keep the door open.

Some would be quick to claim a failure for the EU Green Pass system but I think that it's a huge success. The most traditional and barbaric infectious decease prevention method, the lockdowns and border controls, are quite manageable with this solution.

I have been to Bulgaria recently. For context, Bulgaria hase vaccination rates in the low 20s despite the vide availability of all kind of the EU approved vaccines and you can see that the spread delivers similar death per infection rates as the previous waves. Bulgaria currently employs lockdowns to tackle the spread and Green Pass proves to make life and business easier than the previous lockdowns because the lockdowns don't need to be as severe.

The loops are still there, they're just implicit. That's how APL-family languages can be parallelised easily.

It's notable that the first J interpreter, while written in C, has a similar style --- it defines a macro to run a loop "implicitly", and then uses that throughout:

Yes indeed, I’m from the early 80’s.
I think this is the exact opposite direction I would like to see things go. We need to remove profit incentives to encourage more free thought.

If we have profit incentives in everything, we will see optimization for profits at the expense of everything else, including quality of information.
I didn't give that feedback to a contributor. I didn't encourage maintainers to insult contributors.

If you don't know what you're doing and you don't know that you don't know what you're doing, then yes it's likely what you produce will be both bug ridden and garbage.

It takes time and patience to refine it into something good. It doesn't mean you shouldn't try.

If you, or anyone else -- colleague, stranger, whatever -- submitted bug-ridden garbage, I'd spend time and energy to review your contribution, give you constructive feedback to the best of my ability, and hope for the best.

Hell, most _production_ software is bug-ridden garbage. I've written lots of bug-ridden garbage. I'm just calling a spade a spade.

If this turns you off contributing to open source, I don't know what to tell you. It's just reality.
But aren't they still transferable? Couldn't I set up easy-physician-ce.com and start hawking these things? People checking the license would need to walk back up the transaction chain to ensure that Dr Bob really did receive his directly from the issuing authority, which.... as another poster said, we're probably better off just having the authority sign a key that says that they're giving it to Dr Bob directly.
The seasonal effects are trivially controlled for by comparing the growth rate of the variant to the growth rate of the wildtype at the same time. And that's exactly how the original analysis was done, because the people doing it were not incompetent.

For your seasonal effect explanation to make any sense, the effect would have to have only applied to Alpha but not to baseline Covid at the same time. And then it's not a seasonal effect, is it? It's an actual difference in the behavior of the two variants. The same goes for any other similar confounder that you try to manufacture.
This exactly! (not to mention only ever making exchanges in person, because remote exchanges require trust)

Which is hilarious. Because that's actually all that bitcoin was good for: black market deals/trades, where enforcement is left up to you anyways.

Unfortunately, that makes it a (fucking terrible) medium of exchange for absolutely anything else, unless you add back in all the government regulation that the crypto folks hate.

That depends on the energy of the neutrino, for lower energies there will be some momentum exchange, but since neutrinos are extremely light, this may be neglected depending on your experimental setup.

At higher energies (>GeV) depending on the interaction type (whether a W-boson or a Z-boson is exchanged), a charged lepton comes out, which can be an electron, muon or tau (the tau decays very fast) and this is the same as the neutrino flavor. Or a hadronic shower if a nucleon is hit.

Of course it's always more complicated than that: for lower energies (sub-GeV) you get resonance scattering, where the nucleus will emit a meson (quark-anti-quark particle), or deep-inelastic scattering, where the nucleus is broken up and hadronic particles create a cascade of more particles.

Edit: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle_shower for more on these cascades. It's a bit bare-bone, I don't have a nice reference right now.

>Daily wage labourers don't have 250rs to spend on telecom per month.

They don't have to spend that much on telecom per month. Don't know where you get that idea from.

> I paid a lot of money to telecom and half the times the calls dropped. So stop lecturing me about how good telecom networks in India really are.

I pay a moderate amount of money and I've used Airtel and Jio for a very long time in cities and rural areas and I've had calls dropped maybe 5 times in my life. You must be doing something wrong.

> And the only reason you're having no issues with this wide open loot is because you're rich. Look at the rest of the population.

People with very meagre means have plans that they can use for internet. I'm talking about the bottom of the rung folks.

You must be extremely ignorant of how people use telecom providers or incredibly dense. I don't know which is worse but you're so out of touch with the ground reality there's no point in debating this.
There is already a requirement of the third dose as in a few countries the certificate of the second dose expires after 9 months.
While the comment was overgeneralizing, the code will be rejected (actually, it won't even be rejected in a final way, just feedback will be given about how provide a better version that has chances to be integrated) if the code has actual problems (or at least perceived problems in the eye of the maintainer but in some case we are talking about concrete actual correctness problems that are not a matter of opinion but of pure logic), not just if there is an hypothetical risk that problems would be found if the code was reviewed.

The efforts are mostly irrelevant if the result has serious problems.

And the maintainers also spend some effort to provide the feedback. Which is fair if they say they are open to contributions: effort is provided by contributors, they provide efforts to review. What they can't do, is magically make contributors good enough.

So anyone can attempt to contribute if they are ready to take seriously into account the feedback. In case of over-the-top maintainers who are not reasonable about what they want esp. if this is not about logic defects but about vague opinions, yes obviously you don't have to contribute to their project once you figure out they are chronically unreasonable.
"The only people entitled to say how open source 'ought' to work are people who run projects, and the scope of their entitlement extends only to their own projects.

Just because someone open sources something does not imply they owe the world a change in their status, focus and effort, e.g. from inventor to community manager.

As a user of something open source you are not thereby entitled to anything at all. You are not entitled to contribute. You are not entitled to features. You are not entitled to the attention of others. You are not entitled to having value attached to your complaints. You are not entitled to this explanation.

If you have expectations (of others) that aren't being met, those expectations are your own responsibility. You are responsible for your own needs. If you want things, make them.

Open source is a licensing and delivery mechanism, period. It means you get the source for software and the right to use and modify it. All social impositions associated with it, including the idea of 'community-driven-development' are part of a recently-invented mythology with little basis in how things actually work, a mythology that embodies, cult-like, both a lack of support for diversity in the ways things can work and a pervasive sense of communal entitlement."

Ask HN: What are the features of C/C++ programming language
Canadian here, so I had my turkey fix earlier this fall. And it was not dry. What is "dry" anyway? For meat: Mostly the lack of water and fat. Water and fat provide flavor and improve texture...so without them, turkey is basically poultry leather. We want hot, juicy, tasty turkey, right? I tried "wet brining" which for me, sucks. That's it. And Yeah...it was a juicy turkey...but watery mush juicy. If soft, pillowy, flavorless turkey is your goal, go for it. For me? Nope. (read up on what Kenji Lopez-Alt has to say...he is spot on!) Dry brine is much better. Anyhow, my method is simple: Slow, longer cook... 300F.. in a Big Green Egg. I usually go until it is 140F or so inside and hold it there for 20 min or so. This does take a few hours, but it works every time. Always delish. Most dry birds are overcooked. People start the oven at 450, toss the bird in, and leave it until the inside is 180. If I am doing it inside? Spatchcock or otherwise break the bird down for more even cooking... and then in a slowish oven.
I second Kafka having massive operational overhead. It's a burden and is killing any support for it within our org.
You imply the world has only two kinds of people: the "people who never question the dominant narrative" and "dumb flat earth conspiracists". It is an extremely low resolution view of the world, and you are doing yourself a disservice by ignoring the spectrum in between (or you are simply propagandizing). Do you know that PhDs are among the most vaccine hesitant?

That's what code review in a PR is for. Iterate all you need, and people experienced in the codebase will help you point out your mistakes so you can iterate some more until the maintenance burden you're shifting onto someone else is reasonable.
Nope, and the way they fill out the card can vary widely from retailer to clinic. My CDC card has stickers for my doses, but handwriting that is barely legible is a very common way for providers to fill out the card.
>Why would anyone even attempt to contribute if their efforts are likely to be dismissed in this way? [...] Just that phrases like ‘bug ridden garbage’ don’t suggest a welcoming atmosphere.

I think you missed the gp's point of bringing up the example from the long history of Linux kernel contributions. It's a counterexample to your intuition that people won't attempt to contribute if there's a "hostile atmosphere" (scare quotes) to bad code.

So even though Linus Torvalds and his trusted lieutenants constantly complain about terrible buggy code that wastes their time, Linux still attracts new contributors (and this means more "bug ridden garbage").

EDIT add specific example... I think this 2014 Linus Torvalds complaint about programmer's bad code from has the "unwelcoming atmosphere" you probably wouldn't like : http://lkml.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/1404.0/01331.html

... and yet people keep attempting to contribute to the Linux kernel project.
That guy is wrong on many topics more often than he is right. You should not take him
too seriously.
I think it's largely too early to say (in the sense that it has yet to be thoroughly researched in vaxx'd areas). It's clearly taken over the population of infections in South Africa but they're rolling with fairly low vax rates (I have seen a few figures reported but < 40%).

There are some protein/spike characteristics of this variant which alarm scientists who think it might evade vax-generated antibodies better--i.e. alpha/delta-targeting vax antibodies may provide less resistance to this one.

So on the one hand it //could be// worse than Delta but I am personally waiting for more data to flow out (esp. beyond SA).
I wish I had started investing in my 20s, probably just index funds.
"Why would anyone even attempt to contribute if their efforts are likely to be dismissed in this way?"

Because if they pass the bar knowing what it is then they also know that they're part of the club of developers who have the "patience, skill or experience to write half-decent code that isn't bug-ridden garbage."
Dummy question from a non-front-end dev:

What is the simplest way to host this project as it is on the web? (as a static page, no additional functionality)
YES! Agreed!
This is frustrating because it is a change that has no other impact aside from making your users happier. The justification for not merging that is nonsense.
As the gap between the inflation and interest rates on saving increases, you lose more and more money in the long run. I'd go for a more general advice, that is trying to diversify your savings maximizing them while avoiding unnecessary expenses.
Its actually a signal to where there is market traction and where there isn't through regulators or competitors.

Since you edited:

I think you're misconstruing what I'm saying. I'm not selling an atmosphere. I'm writing a comment on this website. I don't have a project for you to decide to contribute to.

I don't think anyone is suggesting that anyone's efforts should be dismissed impolitely -- but that's not what's being discussed here.
It was not really a website generator when in the VSCode extension. It was more of a copy and paste into your editor, with a easier way of viewing the components available (e.g., via dropdown in the editor).
What every well-meaning parent will say, when pressed, is that they want their child to "be successful". But that goal brings us right back to the gauntlet of testing and ranking; to be successful in the systems of industrial society means being relatively better at what is tested, not your overall development. Everyone who doesn't fall in line manages to survive only by finding a "cheat code": a personal portfolio that has no competition, drive to start a business, pulling off a successful crime, marriage into wealth.

That is, the only way to really make the parents happy is to never promise a clear path to success, for once you do they will rush to gatekeep it for their child, disregarding the child's motives or perspective. It's the "extrinsic reward negates intrinsic reward" hypothesis at the greatest scale.

Checks and balances are rational, while no checks and balances is insane and a recipe for mass corruption. This down vote demonstrates the success propaganda.
I don't disagree in principle but there are many other factors that increase my job happiness:

- We have deadlines but they are not strict and very rarely somebody is going to even ping you outside work hours. People there want some discipline but they don't micromanage.

- The atmosphere is 95% of the time super chill.

- There are no egos flying around (not more than usual anyway; I scheduled a meeting to explain some coding style practices that should be painfully obvious but hey, trying not to judge here).

- Technical excellence is appreciated by a very technical and careful CTO -- but is indeed often sidelined in favor of deadlines and business-enabling work. However, I have already successfully fought him and the CEO off on 2-3 technical excellence tasks by demonstrating they'll reduce future slowdowns. Doable but requires some brawling in meetings.

- Pay is one of the biggest in EU (although it's like 1.5x - 2.0x less the than the US one).

I keep hearing this and I want it to be true but for 20 years of career I've never seen it, not once. Nowadays I no longer believe it. Everywhere I worked (I am mostly a contractor so it has been a very colorful career) the business will stick to their idea of "we can always hire somebody else" with persistence that you'd be jealous of -- I don't know if it's an illusion or not but trust me, it's VERY persistent. That alone weakens the point you brought up because employers simply don't believe it and often times go out of their way to look for those other mythical people -- and I've been told in several occasions that the business closed doors before they managed to repair their clusterf_ck of an app. That's how persistent they are in their thinking process that everyone is expendable.
