I am convinced that in pre-secularism days, when "religious" was pretty much the default assumption, there were plenty of monks/nuns who went down that path not because they were particularly devoted but because they failed to fit into any of the conventional roles offered by society but didn't want to become outcasts either. Yes, this might be a misconception (inspired by Eco/Connery?), but it be surprised if there want some truth in it. From that perspective, contemplation and study is more a possible nice side effect than the actual function. With the modern awareness about how unsustainable a norm of spouse-and-three-kids is, perhaps we should consider freeing the monastic lifestyle from religious baggage and think about a mental framework for "orders" for other kinds of lifetime devotions?

112 Carabinieri (transitioning to unique emergency numbers)

The police won't be happy about your tests on 113, a few other countries have 113 for police:

You may be correct, for some very specific use cases. No matter how much corporate clients want to holler, a few hours of downtime isn't going to hurt anyone.

I know I'd rather someone else do it, then having to drive 2 hours away to a data center at 4:00 in the morning. But I don't know exactly what you're working on , I definitely can't imagine some use cases where a few hours of down time is just unacceptable. I know I wouldn't want to run a logistics firm with servers that go down all the time.
Yeah! sudo had a pretty good one, anyone could gain root access via it, back in 2012 [1].

I love the irony here though - given how people using Java tend to think its unexploitable compared to C/C++ code. This is arguably way worse than a format string exploit. Even user sanitized data gives you full RCE. And via url headers/strings. This feels like a 1990s web era exploit, it's pretty insane.

Personally, I would have gone with Kotlin for a translation like this. It's a closer match to Python than Go, and I think his rule swarm [1] approach to semi-automated translation would have been effective. But then, he might not have liked the fact that, like Python 3 and unlike Go, the Java platform treats strings (particularly filenames) as a sequence of Unicode code points rather than bytes.

Thanks for the reply.

For me the cost isn't just redefining a type. It's the continuous work of reifying types that could be implicit for a while and possibly forever, because concepts don't last long enough to need it.

For me, having written a lot of code in Java and Scala but also in Ruby and Python, typing is a nice adjunct to unit tests and operational monitoring, but not my fundamental way of ensuring correctness. And correctness often isn't the highest value in practice, especially early on in a startup's life.

>I would love to understand why the fed hasn't increased interest rates to counter the rapid increase of inflation..?

Collapse of the underlying assets that they hold. Bailing out the housing market during the pandemic means the fed holds lots of housing market. The theory is that they will let the assets mature and then pull the money back out to come back to a balance. I'll tell you now, if you believe that's about to happen I've got a bridge to sell you. The US still hadn't done this the day before covid started. Covid is far worse.

>I remember learning some basic economics in 2019 about how the U.S. learned a valuable lesson from 2008.

The irony is that the financial crisis at least help the USA today. Compare this to other countries like Canada and we are far worse off than the USA during the financial crisis.

>How they will never make the same mistakes of letting inflation go unchecked because they have tools to work against it.

Those tools are maxed out.

> Yet inflation has rapidly scaled to 6.8% (reported).

The fed made the claim that they would run inflation hotter because they didnt hit target of 2% during covid. The problem? They had to act by now. They've past that threshold of coming to parity.

>Also, I am keeping supply chain demand in mind but I don't think it excuses the fed's decision to not immediately start curbing high inflation rates. My guess is that people with money are profiting and want to continue profiting until it is no longer sustainable.

The metric to look at was GDP. When GDP was 6.7%, inflation was at 5.4% or so. The big problem is that gdp dropped to 2.1% and recession metrics spiked.

If the fed increases rates while gdp is dropping. recession is certain. It's too late for them to undo what they did bailing out the housing market. It would seem counterproductive to spend all this money to prevent housing from crashing just to let it crash anyway.

So we're stuck. Inflation is going sky high. It looks to be about 40% locked in right now over the next few years.

Recently, less than two months ago, I sign up in a gym for the first time in my life. I'm 38 and I didn't really like being inside to exercise, but having been inactive for two years (before I played futsal for years), I felt I had to do something for my health. The start have been rough and I don't exercise really much, no more than 45 minutes, I don't really have the time.
But now I can't stop going, 3 times a week it's a must, I really feel much much better every time I go, physically and emotionally.
Do something, anything, exercise, you will feel better.
> It's not like vegans just eat a steaming pile of broccoli each meal.

It depends on you know. Until recently (the last couple of years), vegans did tend to have very healthy whole-food diets, for the simple reason that processed foods were rarely vegan. That is different now, but I can see why people associate such a diet with veganism.
Yes that's my position.

If you have a long-term goal of body-fitness but eat fast food each day then your long term goals are fluctuating wildly. Another possible description of this behaviour is high time-preference, which means your goals are more short-term rather than long-term.

Maybe there is a better word for this behaviour than irrationality?

Perhaps surprisingly, whether picket lines are lawful is often a matter of legal contention when there's a strike. Company owners argue that they are obstructive (which is at least partially the point), and courts often grant injunctions or restraining orders placing limits on the size, location, or even existence of picket lines.

> This is also related to the pipedream that HTML is for data only with nothing about presentation and CSS should be able to style the HTML without you editing the HTML.

Which I also think is weird, because the hierarchy of HTML is inherently styling/presentation. If HTML was truly decoupled from styling, you'd just throw all the tags that you want into an HTML file and then arrange them around with CSS.

That's why when you're using child selectors in CSS (or the nesting in SCSS that's transpiled to child selectors), you're forced to keep two hierarchies in sync, which makes it a huge PITA to refactor.

CFS is far from neglected and there have been a number of studies attempting to show a physical cause. We've had a number of false positives that have later been debunked.

> the most successful treatment programs tend to focus on careful regulating exercise and diet which again seems to be largely physical.

This is coming from the PACE study, I'm assuming. PACE is largely viewed as suggesting that CFS has a substantial psychological component. There is a bunch of other literature on this as well.

Exercise and diet changes are usually successful treatments for psychosomatic-like illnesses, so I disagree that this treatment means that it is a physical disease.

Many of the original researchers who provided evidence that the disease is non-physical in nature have since left the field after extensive death threats and harassment. [0]

All said they had been the target of online harassment because activists objected to their findings. Only two had definite plans to continue researching treatments.

I remember an interesting story from history books. During the 14th century plague, Serbian emperor and empress asked for a safe place at Athos peninsula. They were granted access, but the empress needed to be carried away all the time, and carpets needs to be put before her whenever she goes anywhere. It worked out because the rule was not that women are not allowed there, but because "women may not put step on the holy ground of Athos peninsula".
I have not read Parfit's paper, but in the article only the utilities of the gifted and disabled boys are considered and the utility of the parent is neglected. This gives a partial view, because the decision of a parent sensitive to utility will also need to account for the utility cost / benefit to themselves of the move (e.g. if they will decrease their own utility by feeling guilty about favouring one child's utility more than the other).
Actually my med doctor changed my meds from Escitalopram to Venlafaxine.

My problem is i can't convince myself to do anything other than stay in bed and rot, besides going out. In terms of activities i'm 95% outside and 5% inside. For example i found that i like studying around others, but when i'm attempting to do just that my brain starts the same routine "This is pointless. You won't go far", etc, etc. Even when i have to do activities with others my brain tries to convince me to go home (or stay home if i'm already there) and stay in bed.

I used to run, and i like running (paradoxically enough) but like everything else i can't convince my self to make it a habit even when i want to.

Well, given the resource requirements to host GitLab and the number of potential visitors, I think this is unlikely.

Moreover, I wouldn't be surprised if they just opened the code, not the development process. And old, frozen projects with no contributing directions are most likely what we'll get at first.

However, hosting OSS code like this is a public service. It would be nice to see the EU commission competing against GitHub for Open Source hosting, but that's probably a pipe dream for now.

The really promising part is what this will enable going forward:

> The dissemination of software under an open source licence will no longer require a Commission Decision.

> The Commission now allows its software developers to contribute to open source projects with improvements that they developed as part of their work.

So it might become at the team's discretion. The code will probably end up being developed on GitHub or somewhere else, with a mirror of sorts on the EU commission's "repository" website.
I am skeptical the process really works that way. I'm sure they ask the right questions during selection. I doubt they get the right answers.
I think very much this. I've known Lisp for a longish time now (even used it at work on occasion) but never considered to seek out a "Lisp job" because language choice is far from the most important criteria in a job. At the moment I probably slot into his first category.
CFS isn’t psychosomatic though. Enough research out there that disproves the ‘it’s all in your head’ theory.

Except US has also hollowed out manufacturing becoming increasingly dependent on rival China (even for defence equipments), has been increasingly losing its sphere of influence (both soft and hard - ask anyone in Africa who wields its soft power there China or US; or look at the Afghanistan fallout), and there is very little bipartisanship left while everyone is busy fighting cultural war.

One can hope at least de globalization is a partial outcome of this post covid realignment if ever one.

I don’t get it either. That my MacBook and ThinkPad don’t have touch screens is a selling point for me… no possibility of fumble-clicking things accidentally, and a good trackpad (and/or trackpoint) do everything a touchscreen does exactly as well as a touchscreen does. Personally touchscreens on laptops feel like compensation for bad/mediocre trackpads.

Also in the case of the ThinkPad, lack of touch support lets it have a matte screen which I definitely wouldn’t trade away for the average glossy laptop screen — Apple’s glossy screens have decent antiglare but those from most other manufacturers are almost mirrors.
Scanning the EUPL quickly, it seems to me that it's actually much closer to weak copyleft (EPL/MPL/LGPL-like), especially because one of the clauses actually lets you distribute the work solely under the terms of those licenses.

That is definitely not even close to the consensus opinion of the field. there have been a number of attempts to try to show viruses as causing cfs, they have been discredited, whereas the pace study has not. [0]

One of the bad aspects of religions are such restrictions that have no base whatsoever. If we omit this anachronism, Agion Oros, as it's commonly called in Greece, is a nice place to visit (Christian men only) with an unspoiled environment and peaceful way of living. It's common for many Greeks to visit at least once this special place (something like Hajj/Hadji), but in recent times this has been declining. There are 20 monasteries [0], not all of them Greek and it's true that there are many daily things performed different than our ways.

You can see what's wrong with that approach by considering the difference between traveling at constant speed along the arc of a circle versus traveling at constant speed along a chord, and projecting the point (out from the center) onto the arc.

It works great if the chord is far away from the center (and also the angle is less than a half turn). If the chord goes through the center, it doesn't work at all.

> don't hire anyone who started working there after the labor dispute happened.

I kind of see the point that you're trying to make, but I'm sure you understand that not everyone is in the same position to pick and choose jobs that the majority of HN find themselves in. Often when someone takes a job, it's because they need a job in order to live.

It's pretty shitty of you to suggest that that individual should be barred from future employment because they had to take a job that was available, even if the reason it was available is disagreeable.
Yeah, given how computers keep getting cheaper, I only start caring about low server costs once I have a demonstrated cost problem that's going to be material to the business model or to the budget. Until then I'm very happy to burn CPU time to accelerate developers. Who keep getting more expensive!

And yes, the point of verifying the concept is key for me in this. Before product-market fit, I just don't have much confidence in any domain model. Once we have demonstrated that particular people are excited to pay for a particular thing, that changes. Then we can understand how those people think, and how we think about their behavior, such that we can do real domain-driven design. At that point I'm much more willing to lock down types.

Ask HN: SaaS operators, who do you use for payments?
Last thread got almost no responses, but I'm just as curious, if not more. Surely someone has some testimonials or recommendations or anecdotes from their own experience!

What I'm looking for from this thread: someone comments about their payment processor experience and chimes in with something like "hey I built a thing, and here's what I really like about the folks I use, for reasons A, B, and C." or even someone who has something like "I used processor A, but this thing happened and I ended up switching to processor B"

Valuable info for me to know would be:

- Average processing volume per month

- Average transaction total

- Price of the most expensive item you sell

- Price of the least expensive item you sell

I've tried querying a few search engines, but all the results I've found contain some form of affiliate marketing, link codes, and things that in general make me disregard the sincerity of the testimonial.
