“ Longitude is a geographic coordinate that specifies the east–west position of a point on the Earth's surface relative to the prime meridian.”

It’s looking good for longitude so far. Looks like people somehow manage to measure relative longitudes ok after all. Let’s check time zones.

“ You may notice, however, that the French collectivity of Saint-Pierre and Miquelon just to the south of Newfoundland is a half-hour ahead despite being at exactly the same longitude. By traveling west on the ferry from Newfoundland, you actually travel forward in time a half-hour.”

Oops. So by travelling consistently west in the same direction you can actually go back into a time zone you’ve previously left without crossing the date line. Not looking good. There are actually several places on Earth where this is possible. Here’s another good one. Is Kaliningrad east of Lithuania, or west of it?

“ All together, there are now three different areas where you gain two hours crossing time zones instead of just one. This also creates an unusual situation in the Kaliningrad Oblast exclave, which is now an hour ahead of Lithuania to its east, and two hours ahead of neighboring Poland.”

Good luck constructing a consistent reference frame out of that.
Ask HN: How to design a pipeline that dynamically generates and serves websites
What infrastructure is needed for Building a pipeline that dynamically generates and serves websites through nginx with subdomain and custom domain mapping.

What is best practices and resource to learn about website provision.

I have currenly researched on
s3 with cloudfront
pulumi code as infrastructure
nginx with subdomain

Currenly i realised i dont have alot understanding of the domain to even ask the right questions. so in simple terms what would squarespace or usmo or webflow use to both manage and deploy and provision custom domaing for web editor to live.
Yes, murder should be ended at all costs.
My 2c is it doesn’t matter what they’re called. The important thing is to understand what The Next Big Thing actually is and relate it back to what it used to be called, and understand any differences.
It seems like a social experiment or something..
I often search reviews for "linux" to see if anyone mentioned anything like "works out of the box with linux kernel 5.0".

It works the other way too, I don't care if someone gave something 1 star because it failed to work on their windows xp machine.

I'm curious to know how does your team avoid shooting itself in the foot with unreviewed code? As in, is there some process that keeps unmaintainable elements from sneaking in?
It is far more complicated than just “maintaining” the cables as most lay people think when they hear grid costs.
The problem is that the grid has to match power demand with the roughly the same amount of power generation during all the time. So, if a cloud passes over your system and reduces your output by 25%, those 25% need to come from somewhere, usually from rotational inertia from giant steam or hydro turbogenerators in the nearest second, and either by regulating steam production or water flow in the long run or if necessary by either taking offline generator or adding more easily dispatchable power sources. And all the while making sure the frequency keeps very close to 60hz all the time. It is not just about sending a man in a pole to change some insulators from time to time.
that's one way to get a lot of 1x engineers...
> The safety data break down like this: 425 out of 1029 patients, or 41.3%, on the 10mg/kg Aduhelm dose experienced ARIA. Serious cases cropped up in 14 of those patients, the JAMA analysis shows. ARIA-edema (ARIA-E), or swelling, was the most common side effect seen in the pooled data, affecting 362 patients, or some 35%. ARIA-microhemorrhage, also known as microbleed, and ARIA-superficial siderosis, which is a type of slow brain bleeding, was observed in 19.1% and 14.7% of patients, respectively.

> Ninety-four (26%) of the 362 patients with ARIA-E experienced symptoms, most commonly headache, confusion, dizziness and nausea, the analysis shows.

> Swelling or bleeding were mild to moderate in those patients, but scans did show severe side effects in 12.2% of patients with swelling, 11.7% in patients with microbleeds and 21.9% in patients with slow brain bleeding.
I've learned that people get *really* tied up in cultural kitsch they experienced as children. Given syndication, this means we get kids absolutely adoring movies and television shows that are awful.

Personal example I believe is representative. I grew up with three movies we'd watch in this hacked-together Frankenstein of a travel van with a tiny TV: Dantes Peak, The Cowboy Way, and Mac and Me. I'm 100% sure these were picked up in the bargain bin sale.

I loved them all at the time, because at the time they represented all the excitement of a vacation -- none were great, and Mac and Me is objectively TERRIBLE!!!

I keep an ear out for these kinds of things. ST:TOS definitely hits this note, long and loud (there was a reason there were few seasons). So does ST:TNG, but its actually really good.
The judge ruled the bankruptcy court exceeded its authority by attempting to shield the Sacklers from litigation when they themselves had not filed for bankruptcy protection. According to the article this can happen in “unique” situations. So this isn’t about the merits or fairness of the settlement, merely the technical authority.

The Sacklers were I guess contributing $4.5B for this liability shield? IANAL so genuinely curious: wouldn’t the thousands of cases be rolled up into a few class action lawsuits so $4.5B could be viewed as a settlement of those suits?

Don’t get me wrong: the Sacklers are disgusting people who contributed to the opioid crisis. Can a link be established that meets the relevant legal threshold for liability? Again, genuinely curious.

If you haven't already found it, you should look into IHP (https://ihp.digitallyinduced.com/). It aims to build the convenience of Rails on top of Haskell's powerful type system. I've not yet built anything serious in it, but I've been following its progress, and it's looking really good so far.
In CA? That’s the taxpayers - PG&E spent a few decades making a “profit” by under maintaining the grid, and distributing those profits to investors through dividends.

Then when the failure to maintain the grid killed numerous people and billions in damages they increased prices, increased “fees” (somehow separate from prices), and threatened bankruptcy unless CA gave them enough money to keep going. Then increased fees again.

This new fee for people with solar is because their poorly managed and under maintained grid might fall over if people add power to the grid, and more importantly they lose the ability to price gouge people who have a solar alternative.

Why CA didn’t simply seize their assets as compensation for the damage they’ve caused and instead have them a “loan” that the victims end up paying for is beyond me.
Nuts! 600 engineers push to the repo i work on everyday. Good luck handling that with trunk based development
Don't we want voters to be able to just honestly write that they like these small extremist parties? Are you suggesting that we want all the voters to vote for one of the top two parties, out of a fear of wasting their vote?[0] Besides, those small parties are obviously eliminated almost immediately, so the only thing those votes are worth is a bit of money from the Australian Electoral Commission.[1]

If you push into master and forget to run tests (which happens, people are human and make mistakes, especially with small changes), then your broken tests are now breaking everyone's attempts to run the build though. You don't get the feedback that your tests are broken until after it's pushed into master.
A long long time ago I read a forum post that evaluated mixing various types of plant based protein powders at various ratios to achieve a high PDCAAS score. The only things I can recall are that a 70/30 mix of pea protein and rice protein gave you above a 1.0 score, and mixing hemp protein in with anything made the score worse. You can conveniently buy cheap pea protein powder and rice protein powder in 7 and 3 lb jugs.

This was specifically about protein powder, but I think you could achieve similar results in your diet by combining different plant based foods in a meal.
Not a whole lot of substance there. I can't tell if there's anything significant to the tech.
No one company has owned D&D this century. Most of it is in the public domain (Open Game Content), with some fiddly details restricted. For a while Hasbro's latest D&D was selling less than Paizo's, although I think Hasbro regained the lead. And even in the 1990s, you could share your own house rules, monsters, spells, etc. as much as you liked as long as you did not try to make money from them. RPG designers have very little control over what people do when they sit down at the table.

If the author thinks that the latest version of D&D published by the biggest corporation is the 'real' one, that just shows that he has adopted the corporate ideas he claims to reject.
If this applies only to grid tie is a good thing toward systems that are as much off grid as possible and that have their own storage.

This kind of thing really grosses me out. Why can't you just include the issue number in relevant commit messages? Why does it matter what your branches are named?

Naming branches relevant to what they actually represent is incredibly important to me, personally. I don't care what you do but I refuse to play by this rule in particular, when it's a hard rule.
Promises and async/await are absolutely not magic. Every JS engineer who is competent quickly learns how the event loop works and how promises work.
A vendor with bad ratings in that system could just keep creating new product pages to clean their reputation. There's no incentive to have long-lived product pages.
I don't see the complaint as "it's wrong to use powerful chips in a cartridge". As has been pointed out, even contemporary cartridges did things like that.

I see the 'complaint' is that there's a creative/artistic appeal to seeing what can be squeezed out with limited/constrained resources.

Or, at worst, does it make sense to use an old console like the Game Boy if you're going to use such a fancy cartridge?

I'm reminded of the MythBusters episode where they tried to make a cannon from a wooden log. They resorted to using modern power tools. "I'm not doing anything they wouldn't have done if they had access to these tools!".

I think the project is pretty cool, anyway.
I mainly agree with you as far as the effects on myself.

However, another aspect of racism is that it disempowers the speaker. Someone blaming "the whites" for their situation is putting themselves in the same exact position as someone blaming "the blacks" for their situation. Even if there is some truth to what they are saying, they're adopting a very simplistic model of the world that will practically lead to more failure.

In a sense such feel good simplistic explanations have become the bulk of modern politics, but this isn't a good thing.
yeah - generics can get fairly complex for library authors that want to be maximally flexible (which is optional!), but the end result generally tends to be a library that users can use correctly by accident, without needing to understand generics in depth.

It's that "correct by accident" part that's hard to have both safe and performant without generics.
FIPS-compliant random numbers for the kernel
Mastering a tool that nobody else has, and that is radically better than what others are using, can be akin to a superpower. But Spider-Man and Doc Ock are not happier than other people. What they are, mostly, is alone.

So, a niche tool may be best for you if you like to work alone.
For me it was late 90s. A friend of the family bought for me Walnut Creek's FreeBSD CD set, with all the stickers and other goodies. They sent it all the way to my godforsaken small town in Mexico. As a 12 year old it was soooo cool. I remember spending hours installing (incluing configuring and compiling the kernel in an ncurses based interface). I printed the whole FreeBSD manual and my mom bound it for me.

Great times!
I struggle with even non-cyclic linked data structures in Rust. For example consider a binary tree:

struct Node {
value: usize,
left: Option<Box<Node>>,
right: Option<Box<Node>>,
}

I want to write a function to increment the value of every Node. This is trivial with recursion, but that risks blowing the stack. So I try an iterative version using an explicit stack, but the borrow checker doesn't understand explicit stacks, only the C stack, so it rejects my code.

There's no inherent underlying complexity to transforming a recursive function to an iterative one, yet it is legitimately hard in Rust.
I don’t care much about mobile, and even if I didn’t have a gif-animation-blocker extension installed, it wouldn’t be that much of an issue as they barely get used in the subreddits I read in ;)

Despite all the heat in the discussions this is something that was unavoidable.
Grid tie is not a scalable idea as it is today, everyone who have minimal knowledge of the physics of AC generation and distribution kind of new that the day when grid tie systems without storage would have to pay their fair cost at least to the system.
Personally I think that makes it a better system.

I may not agree with the politics of One Nation (in fact I'm almost certain I don't, without even going to read what they are) but having a system where I can place a vote for what I really want and then put an acceptable compromise candidate as second choice seems to me a much better way of allowing newer parties and newer politics in than the more or less institutionalised stagnation of something like the US system.

From what I can tell the Australian system rarely lets such smaller parties gain very much anyway.
Ruby on Rails is awesome to write, horrible to maintain. It’s the fastest way to build a web app but good luck with staying productive once you have 100 engineers working on it and a million lines of rails soup to wrangle.
Same for YouTube. they allow blatant crypto scam videos to run (such as videos impersonating famous people like Michael Saylor) yet none of their hundreds of highly paid engineers are able to do anything even though it is such a blatant fraud and people are losing a lot of money. It's like "who cares if users are being ripped off. sucks for them. not our responsibility." Unless a law is passed holding these companies accountable, little will change.
Those hundreds of fake reviews are a feature, not a bug for Amazon. They drive sales. And when the chickens come home to roost, as you say, Amazon will probably figure out a completely different trick to juice sales.
It actually depends on the city. In certain parts of Chicago, what you say reflects my experience, but I haven't run into those issues in most places.
If you just want FF to not use it you can block "use-application-dns.net" which acts as a canary domain for it to disable DoH.

If you want to block it from things you don't trust to have such methods (or always listen to them) you'll have to upgrade to a firewall that can filter outbound connections to IPs the client hasn't received a DNS response for or require use of an explicit HTTP proxy for outbound connectivity.

Just blocking DNS can be a good middle ground for reasonable effectiveness without as much effort.
A cooperating group could have very outsized influence in this system right? They could decide first in private which way to vote and make sure they have no cancellation and that they all use the same amount of points, this maximizes power per point.

NPR's Planet Money just did a great look at this: https://www.npr.org/2021/10/27/1049786108/nice-work-week-if-...

Its very interesting--the research they present suggests that people worked much less before industrialization. It jumped massively as lots of low-skill people took factory jobs for the first time and worked 12+16 hour days, but since then has steadily declined again.

This was the big takeaway for me:

"...some of the leading economic thinkers of the last century expected the gradual shortening of the work week would just keep going. None other than John Maynard Keynes, one of the most important figures in economics - and imaginary friend to the show - famously predicted that we would all be working a 15-hour work week by 2030."

What a crazy idea. Or is it?

SoftRAM wasn't as badly thought out as you thought. The idea was to use compression as a warm layer between "in-memory" and "on disk". That idea is actually implemented in windows 10/11 as "memory compression", and is in linux (zswap) and mac os as well. The only problem was that SoftRAM was half-baked, and their compression algorithm was memcpy (ie. nothing). Raymond Chen has a much longer write-up:

For me, there have been many times when I've been playing Rocket League in almost a fugue state, where I'm only half paying attention to the game. (Like how you can drive for a while in your car in a half-daydream, and snap back to reality and wonder how you missed so many miles going by without getting in an accident. If you've never experienced it, yes, it's a thing; no, it's not epilepsy.)

I tend to make a lot of progress just organizing my thoughts during those times; it's like the act of doing something else distracts the part of my brain that would get in the way of the processing I needed to do otherwise.

Strangely, I also tend to play Rocket League pretty well, even though I'm not fully focusing. Again, probably something about just doing vs. thinking about how to do.

I don't switch off from work very well, though, so this invariably happens when I should be enjoying my personal time but I'm still thinking about work. The exact opposite situation from the OP's.

> Do people regularly run into coworkers like me during their career and simply ignore it because they find it too awkward to criticize them? Have I just been incredibly lucky and every boss I have had is too incompetent to notice? Do I have imposter syndrome and I am actually a 10x developer whose laziness makes them a 1x developer?

Lazy developers don't really bother me, if you do a couple hours of high-quality work a week I'd have no complaint. (Many weeks I do as little, some weeks I do a decent amount of real work :) The problem is developers making negative progress, usually messes that need to be cleaned up ... and it's an awkward situation, no matter your relative authority. I'm in the "we should consider them lines spent, not lines produced" camp.

An old disputed quote:

> I divide my officers into four classes as follows: The clever, the industrious, the lazy, and the stupid. Each officer always possesses two of these qualities.

> Those who are clever and industrious I appoint to the General Staff. Use can under certain circumstances be made of those who are stupid and lazy. The man who is clever and lazy qualifies for the highest leadership posts. He has the requisite nerves and the mental clarity for difficult decisions. But whoever is stupid and industrious must be got rid of, for he is too dangerous.
> An individual who felt strongly about a single issue could hoard their credits until its moment arrives, then blow all of their saved credits on it. That would allow passionate minorities occasionally to outvote indifferent majorities.

In other words, hoarders and impulsive spenders would decide policy?

Ultimately political systems are judged by the quality of their policies. Why would passionate minorities produce better policy than median voters?

That’s pretty different from ‘a ton’ and I doubt the zero is used meaningfully in iot. I’m trying to think of a scenario where the pi is better than an embedded system, it seems like overkill or overtly complicated to need Linux to monitor this stuff unless it’s also computing it before sending the data, maybe in thinking about it wrong? IoT and edge computing are what I generally think of, and something like Pi I see as a hub.

This is a good tip.
This is because JSON and GraphQL are hot garbage. You may as well have written:

I have sympathy for your struggles -- I've been there. But fundamentally this always ends up being a problem of putting a square peg into a round hole.
