Educated guess is a good start, that’s how you find what to work on. The important part is the work, you can’t suspect something and preach it as if it’s true. Most of the time these hunches are wrong.

Also, just as a good mechanic doesn’t necessarily make a good racer, knowing how to produce mRNA doesn’t mean that you know what it does and doesn’t do to humans. That’s completely different field.

The guy is a complete schmuck, if he had something he would have been working on it and publishing the results instead of using his CV to preach BS in the media.
Since it is a pastebin, it would be nice to have something that just spit out the raw content of the pasteboard. I guess E2E encryption will not work here but often times people don't need that. Being able to tell my user to just type:

would be valuable.
But I think for the Americans at the lower classes NATO, and regimes are worthless, if you are a guy who is going to die in a warehouse because you're going to be forced to work during a weather emergency, then a change of master is just a change of your master. American middle class is shrinking, it has less financial power, workers have less contractual power and less rights, so maybe instead of these useless Hollywood movies-like discourses about unity and NATO, one should address those issues, when you're a worker being replaced by a non-union one because your yearly raise doesn't even cover inflation then it all seems useless.

I am really surprised that this game still works, US needed USSR as an enemy to unite workers and keep them aligned in order to produce to fight communism, now it's the time of Russia and China, and "regimes", that from one side are being depicted as an enemy to fight and against which the people need to unite, and from another side are being used by corporations in order to manufacture and to grow their user base, I would suggest to Americans to stop caring about the enemy in China and to start caring more about their enemies in congress and in the CEO office
I haven't heard many companies actually reporting major exploits, or any major sites having outages..

So I'm questioning whether this flaw really does result in remote code execution, or whether the vast majority of companies are using a version of log4j that doesn't have this flaw.
Only 8% of people in the United States make more than $100k: https://graphics.wsj.com/what-percent/

Don't know if I'd call it easy if it's something only 8 out of 100 people do. It also depends on the area. $100k in SF is a lot different than $100k in the mid-west.
Is six figures really that much any more? I’m talking about 1xx,xxx, which is what most people mean when they say six figures. If you’re living in a place like New York, California, or even say, Jersey, what does a low 6 figures really get you?
That's what happens when we glorify the legal system and let lawyers inflict the nonsense upon people.

This absolutely has no useful utility and causes moderate harm on everyone.
This is not your main point, but in the spirit of Americans overestimating social mobility, you may be overestimating "family values" among the working class. According to the 2015 US census, the share of people who have been divorced at least once is 46% (poor), 41% (working class) and 30% (middle and upper class). Similarly, people who report they are "very happy" in marriage are 54% (poor), 56% (working class) and 65% (middle and upper class). (https://ifstudies.org/blog/the-marriage-divide-how-and-why-w...).

I wasn't able to turn up any stats on lawn care though.
Literally the entire point of the paper is that the U.S. has the worst intergenerational bottom-to-top quintile probability among the five nations, U.K., France, Italy, and Sweden being the others, but Americans believe that the probability is much higher than it really is, as you have just amply demonstrated.

Does this actually happen? And if it does, surely some hedge funds are trying to cash in on this, shorting in the days leading up to it, then covering as insiders sell.
> there's a wider income range

...and that's why such comparisons should be done using percentiles instead of absolute values. Which they did.

> The conclusion of the article is in part a reflection of the methodology.

The biggest methodological flaw points in quite a different direction than you seem to be suggesting. Change in percentile across the income distribution is less informative than change in percentile across the wealth distribution, and that should be the age adjusted wealth distribution as well. Comparing my retirement income to somebody who's still working is practically useless. Comparing it to what my age peers have in the bank compared to when we were all much younger tells something close to the true story.

That's a fair point -- that the tech is capable of supporting it. I could be wrong, but in the near term I don't recall any US carriers proposing to allocate any low-band spectrum that way.

Either way, if we're talking about "coverage" for low-bandwidth stuff like fitness trackers, it's the spectrum that matters more than anything. We can communicate thousands of miles on 1 or 2 watts of LF spectrum using technology that is nearly a century old. Don't need 5G for that, just need to use the right spectrum.

This comment is 100% correct but somehow got shuffled to the bottom and greyed.

It doesn’t make sense to measure income mobility in anything but absolute terms: Would you rather move one quintile in a wide income distribution or two within a much narrower one?
The larger problem is not simply getting access to medicaid, it's also that the US defines poverty essentially based on access to medicaid... Where a non-trivial portion of the population does not qualify for medicaid, but are also far from being financially secure.

The Clangs are different from each other in some installations, and identical in others. In particular the Visual Studio installation doesn't have identical binaries, but the MSYS2 installation does. You'll have to check yours. For example, if you dir "%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Community\VC\Tools\Llvm\bin\clang*.exe" you'll see they're slightly different sizes.

(Also note that in this case you don't need symlinks per se, just identical binaries with hardlinks. Each executable could inspect argv[0] and figure out what it's invoked as, and behave accordingly.)

What I don't understand is why can't they just bundle everything into a single DLL, then make whatever stub executables they want just call the exported main() in that DLL. I think that might be what MSYS2's copy already does, though I haven't checked. That DLL wouldn't need to export anything else, just the main() function that each .exe stub would forward to. And it can handle everything else internally if it so desires.
You should be able to easily find on YouTube/Reddit or other parts of the internet- actual decibel testing.

For the CP33, with some of the higher quality suppressors, the action of the gun is actually louder than the fired munitions. I haven’t checked on things in a bit, but people were trying to work on the action to reduce noise created by it.

It’s essentially slightly louder than a handheld staple gun irl (there’s videos of this comparison on YouTube) - and I’ve saw somewhat reputably claimed, but not actually demonstrated - there are now some integral aftermarket barrels for the Ruger MKIV that are quieter than the CP33.

As you’ve stated though - these rounds definitely don’t have much power behind them and will do practically nothing to anything that isn’t human flesh like. They can quite literally bounce off of an obese person or get caught in a modest cold weather coat.
Joining the Military shouldn’t be the primary path to a better life; that seems incredibly dystopian.

> Only 8% of people in the United States make more than $100k

How does the percentage change when you look at people with full-time jobs? With full-time professional jobs? Who are actively trying to optimise their income instead of for example prioritising family? I'd guess it becomes much larger very quickly.
It’s used thoughtfully with an awareness of the limitations of special effects. The actual movie is good and exciting so there is no attempt to use CG as a bandaid on otherwise dull action sequences, “fix it in post”.

small question about superloader3. how noisy it is ?
How different is the top quintile of earnings between countries? For example (made up numbers), if the top quintile in the UK earn $100k and the top quintile in the US earn $400k, it's not really the same comparison to move from the bottom to the top. Going from earning $20k to $100k is going to be different than going from $20k to $400k. I suspect the top is higher in the US.
If your libraries have breaking changes on every update, sure. Most of the libs I use haven’t had one in decades, but I don’t write js so maybe my experiences aren’t that relevant.

If one means to say highest maximum tax rate, just say it. No weasel interpretations.

But I guess these are the same people that don’t understand how America dealt with a 90% income tax rate in the 1950s. Or a 77% tax rate until 1981!

Here's something very similar to that: https://www.aosabook.org/en/
Absolute is what matters. If 80% of your society is earning between $60k and $90k, a quintile jump around the middle is small compared to a similar shift in a $40k to $180k society. Relative mobility doesn’t buy you a vacation home.
This doesn't bypass the review process because no ones review process includes auditing the code of all things in the package lock files. This is no more or less secure than the current way of doing things.
I really would like to see some statistics about this. I have a feeling that many people will agree with you, simply because

1. the American "rags to riches" story is one that the media bombards people with over and over again

2. Lots of people simply lie about the circumstances they come from
There are a few particularly interesting points when you go back up your ancestor tree. First, there is a point where some ancestor of yours is an ancestor of everyone else currently living (and so will also be an ancestor of everyone else to come). This is the "most recent common ancestor" point.

Go farther back and you reach the "identical ancestors point" (also known as the "all common ancestors point" or the "genetic isopoint"). The is the most recent point where everyone alive either is an ancestor of everyone currently living or has no living descendants.

Even farther back is the "Mitochondrial Eve" (or "matrilineal most recent common ancestor"). This is like the "most recent common ancestor" except only counts matrilineal descent. I.e., it is the most recent point where there is a woman that all currently living people can trace their ancestry to entirely through women.

There's a similar point for the "Y-chomosomal Adam" via patrilineal descent.

It is believed that the identical ancestor point is less than 15000 years ago. Note that this is after the Neanderthals went extinct. It follows that since there are people alive today with Neanderthal ancestry, there must have been people alive at the identical ancestor point who had Neanderthal ancestry and who have descendants alive today, and so by the definition of the identical ancestor point everyone alive today is a descendent of all such people. Hence, we can conclude that every current human has Neanderthal ancestry.

Same goes for the Denisovans.

Note that this doesn't mean that everyone today has Neanderthal or Denisovan DNA. We only have enough genes to have genes from all our ancestors back for 15 or so generations. Because of this you can have someone who is an ancestor of yours but you have none of their DNA.

I guess that’s what makes Trump “the peoples billionaire” but I don’t think it’s a class.

It’s more of a function of how much you embrace the norms of formal education and institutions. This defines who do you trust, what do you care about and how do you think.

I’m inclined to think that this is a personality trait. Surely, personality is shaped by the environment too.
See my other replies, I'm aware of this, baby.
>How does that part work in practice? Are these forms something someone from a poor uneducated background can actually realistically fill out?

Yes, at least in the 3 states where I know anything about how the systems work. It's all the same information you fill out to get your driver's license, kid's school lunch which, contrary to the prevailing trope around here, being poor does not make you too stupid to do. It's way less arcane than reporting loan interest on your taxes or trying to register a used car last registered by a dead guy.
Technically, the choices are vastly more improved now.

You could always have a global style variable in a framework like react, that in the end renders the "text-red-500" part. Changes are pretty easy too.

And, React has been the framework that brought this new paradigm to the forefront. The amalgamation of programming and UI design. As long as designers were at the helm of web-sites, we had tools like Adobe Dreamweaver. Once programmers were forced to do UI stuff, we had stuff like React / Vue / Angular on the horizon.

I now realize that HTML is a platform. No human should ever directly write an HTML file. We must build software that builds HTML.
I’m not sure about that, there’s been all sorts of studies about old people and loneliness. The loneliness is so bad it impacts their health: http://www.nia.nih.gov/news/social-isolation-loneliness-olde...

Any poor person can walk into an urgent care or go to some place like ZocDoc and get help signing-up for Medicaid or Obamacare.

Likewise, any poor person can go to the local community college and tell the person at the desk that they want to enroll in some classes and they will be directed to the financial aide office where they will receive help to sign up for FAFSA [0] and Pell Grants [1].

All of these forms are printed in about 5 languages. There are people in the offices there to literally help the poor people write their own names on the forms.

I'm surprised to read this given the political situation in the United States. As an outsider it seems like the entire Trump movement has a strong basis in nationalism and exceptionalism, and it was endorsed by half the country's population.
> It's not hugely difficult to earn six figures in the US if you're committed, work hard, and pick a good field.

If you want to call what the article measures "economic mobility", OK. Regardless of terminology, the point is that Americans think it's easier than it actually is to go from the bottom quintile of income to the top. If "it's not hugely difficult" translates to "more than a 7.8% chance of going from bottom quintile to top", then you'd be among them.
wow, you had a puppy? How'd that happen?
>Social mobility is very different than economic mobility

Truly. And unfortunately while the headline says "social mobility" the article looks at economic mobility, specifically income quintiles (as opposed to wealth accumulation).

Does anyone else kinda feel like videogames look good enough at this point? This demo looks fantastic, but I don't think many visual improvements beyond it seem super exciting to me. I'll take them when they come, of course, and I'm sure that realistic 3D worlds in videogames will continue to look better and better as time goes on.

But I dunno. I hope advances in videogame engines do more than just help the biggest AAA titles improve their photorealism.

What do we get as the technology improves beyond the point shown in this demo? Just better graphics, or a democratization of the production of photorealistic games? Does this somehow open the door for smaller teams to create games that involve photorealism, or for more budget and staffing resources in the development of photorealistic games to be directed toward other aspects of the game?
With deferred rendering it's possibly running multiple sharers per pixel on the screen. A good example is the excellent Doom Graphics study shows how Doom 2016 is doing this. https://www.adriancourreges.com/blog/2016/09/09/doom-2016-gr...
About 5 years ago I flew in to SFO for a work trip. A few hours after I picked up my Hertz rental car I got a message stating that I hadn't picked up my car yet. Checking the rental paperwork, I saw that I had somehow rented this car as someone else. This, despite I did the normal gold service process that involves providing my license to an attendant at the gate.

I was happy then that I didn't have a run in withe the police, thinking it would be a minor inconvenience at most. I guess it can get a lot worse.

“What I’ve seen contradicts measured statistics across the country” is not a convincing argument. Most users of HN probably live in a bubble; important to look at hard data from reliable sources rather than personal experiences.
No, `crisp-edges` allows for algorithms[1] like HQ2X and 2xSaI, which would not work with the dithered images, whereas `pixelated` enforces nearest-neighbor scaling.

It kinda makes sense.... after birth a woman could be recouping and 'vulnerable', in cavemen days, so maybe the pheremones are to make men who might have nefarious notions back off, and women stand up like a bear on all fours when someone tries to be shitty to them, but to also protect their baby.

Probably has a role w/ post-partum depression too, I'd imagine.

Social mobility is a very tricky thing. I think every person can succeed as long as they have the courage to cut off people who are counterproductive to that. For example, when I look at my own parents, they're simply self-destructive people who never took responsibility for any of their actions. Whenever I've needed to depend on anyone in my family. I've ultimately been let down, but when it comes to my own efforts. You know I got my own apartment when I was 19, and I've made six figures, despite a family member screwing me out of finishing college, by the time I was 25. It's very hard to cut off your own family though, but whatever situation your parents are in, that's the situation they're in. I did make the mistake of trying to save my family members, and it was a very costly mistake.

They were perfectly fine with ruining the life I built for myself, up until I blocked most of them and just moved to a different city. Work hard and cut off lazy people. Don't get involved of anyone who doesn't want to work, outside of laziness being disgusting upon itself, these people tend to cause unlimited drama. A person who's finishing up their PhD, while working full time doesn't have time to cause problems. Someone who's 28 or 29 and still doesn't work has plenty of problem causing time.

Once you understand this, and just to add, make sure if you're having trouble finding the right type of people where you live, you consider moving. I'm from LA, I've had so many strange situations created by people who I've alluded to above. The moment I left LA, I had a fantastic partner, and I've never had someone try to put me in a volatile situation since.

All of this sad, I've been very lucky. Medical conditions I'd be screwed. All it takes is a single severe medical condition to financially ruin you, and then you can't afford treatment, in this country says good luck try a go fund me
Honestly, still kind of impressive that an off-the-shelf concurrent hashmap can get within even a factor of two of the best-in-class hundreds-of-engineer-years piece of open-source software and all the fine-tuning that major enterprise users have contributed to it. Like, given how much infra budget goes into running big KV stores, I'd assume that memcached has been optimized to within an inch of its life across almost the entirety of its codebase, all the way up to the really hardcore stuff. Being able to just... grab a package and get within spitting distance of it is kind of amazing. IME when you do that you're lucky to get within two OOM.
