I've learned the skill. I had to.

However, you are correct about that "using bandwidth" thing.

If we publish something, then I think it behooves us to make it clear what users/adopters of our work can expect from us.

I tend to use the MIT license ("You can do what you want, but don't come crying to me."). I also make every effort to make the project as understandable and well-documented as possible. I appreciate feedback, and apply it, if I deem it fitting.

I have only had one project "go viral," so to speak. It's a fairly big deal, nowadays. It was taken over by a new team, and they had very little trouble getting up to speed on it, because of the quality of the code and documentation. Thousands of folks around the world, use it every day. It's become a fairly vital infrastructure component, for a certain demographic.

The best thing I ever did, with that project, was get the hell away from it, as soon as I was confident the new team was good.
For personal domains, I bite the initial cost and buy the domain for 10 years, then every year top it up to 10 again. For a $20/yr domain that’s only $200 up front, and if the cost suddenly goes up or some other TLD policy changes that I hate, I have plenty of time to gradually move to a cheaper/better domain.

One thing I’m not sure of is what happens if I want to switch registrars in that time—will the full 10 years of ownership transfer to the new registrar?
Never assume malice when machine learning will suffice as an explanation.
His base has made opposing vaccination an existential part of their identity, in no small part because Trump downplayed the virus, refused to wear a mask and played reporting on the pandemic off as Democrat propaganda - and while Trump has never made explicit anti-COVID vaccine statements himself AFAIK (he has tweeted about spurious links between vaccines and autism,) he definitely contributed to the atmosphere of politicization and lack of confidence in vaccinations that now seems to have him pushed into a corner.
But you know it wouldn't if it had to rely on your home connection AND Amazon. It's like all those major website that rely on 10 domains to serve one webpage...
Yeah, 23 hours is about what I'd expect for this. Insurance is reasonably important, and 4,000 words is quite short (~8 pages). I've read much longer insurance agreements.

If you really want one of these clauses to go unclaimed, bury it in the middle of a software EULA from a large company, like EA. Ain't nobody reading those.
It seems that you are equating retirement with cessation of work. Many do not interpret it that way, myself included. Retirement is a stage where one can choose to work as much or as less as one pleases without jeopardizing current and future standard of living for self (and loved ones)
One needs a different perspective. It is used by millions of academics who did not yet try TeXmacs.
They are going to continue selling land and military companies to Qatar and other Arabs.
We waste a lot of time trying to teach teenagers languages in high school. I learnt French, very poorly. Have retained almost nothing to this day, what a waste of time.

I believe Latin is still offered in my high school system... A guaranteed waste of time.

I truly believe study of foreign language should almost be reserved for people who will be living in a country with that tongue. Using it everyday and getting good returns on all that grind.

More generally, we should be be more economical with our effort and time. "Why am I learning this? " Should be asked more often.

I feel the cultural pull for pointless learning on other subjects. I am sure we all do. "I should study some physics. Read Feynman's lectures." But to what end, I don't know. My life will not be appreciably better for learning more about electro-magnetism.

There's a yearning in us that pointless education must satisfy. A dream of a better life that you can pretend to be working towards.
Go is sort of made for that, as is NodeJS. Rust and Java are other languages I assume would make short work of a task like this.
At this point it seems to me that their „claim“ to be a secure and honest encrypted messenger has hurt them more than benefitted. Techies blast their custom „encryption“ and cry about the „not secure by default“ chats. The media only mentions Telegram in the same phrase as terrorism and how Telegram enables terrorists to communicate securely.

It‘s an amazing platform though and I wouldn‘t want to go back to something more basic. Once you „get“ the bots, broadcast channels, etc. it‘s really amazing. Signal is perfectly secure and great but it feels like going back to pen and paper after using email. I see it as a social platform akin to WeChat or Discord and am perfectly happy that way.

> In the multilateral case, recognition of Taiwan by the UN has long been something that China has had veto power over.

I think you are just stating that that is part of the international law, right? Law is just law. It went to effect for stakeholders agree that they can abide by bits ruling.

Texas is not independent because US does not allow that. Right? Because the law dictates that the sovereign power is legally the care giver of a group of population on a land.

You are mixing law and self conscience.

https://www.lowyinstitute.org/the-interpreter/would-war-over....

This is relatively balanced description on the issue. One can certainly see that the politics have made the matter intentionally vague.

And nternational law is not necessarily written. It could be some commonly agreed principles. For example, there is no written law says US government can govern the land on here. It's based a certain aggreed upon concepts in people's mind.
Personally buying ip for a project you just started working on as someone expected to be a contributor? Yeah I'm serious (That I take that as a flag now). There were accounts and avenues to buy a domain when ready for that.

It showed they couldn't communicate well, couldn't work in stealth mode, couldn't focus on building/proving out the mvp.

Other factors are just hindsight/observing them the decade after.
Two of those factors might be.
1. Repeatedly quitting contracts (if it's not a good fit fine, if it's never a good fit maybe you're missing skills to complete a project).

2. Comments/behaviors that illustrated they would have been a poor manager if we scaled/inability to be wrong.

For me, other developers and contributors have been one of the most important factors for success/completing projects/keeping clients (in the contracting space). So I consider this an important lesson I was fortunate to learn early. I don't know who I would be working with now if I had failed to keep great talent around me (or for that matter, what skills I would not have developed).
And actually, now that I think about, even this is another example of you grossly misrepresenting me:

> and the first time you've even acknowledged that the crying wording exists(!)

Go back and read what I wrote in verbatim! I wrote:

> There is no doubt that Zhao is a manipulative jerk and that he engaged in unacceptable questionable acts.

"unacceptable acts" include that which make her cry! I didn't "omit" saying that he did deplorable things. This is yet another deplorable example of you looking for imaginary enemies and engaging in thought policing.
I don't see why it can't be a part of the language, since the language implementation requires that the notion of compilation configuration exists and even C/C++ has a specific language construct to check for it (through the preprocessor).

> If I build libfoo with -Dexclude_feature_bar which just drops 2 source modules from the library build, how can the language express that?

By expressing within the language that the library can be configured with an optional `exclude_feature_bar` flag. Then downstream dependencies can express they require importing libfoo configured with exclude_feature_bar.

At least in Rust where the compilation unit is a crate, crates must express what their compile options are, and dependents express that they require specific compile options from their dependencies. You could argue this isn't a property of the language, but I would argue it is since it's so tightly coupled to the language implementation (despite living in a config file, that file is required to build anything)

Since C and C++ eschew this fundamental requirement of packaging software and pass the buck to the library authors to figure out a way to describe available configuration options, there's no standard way to do this, and dependency management becomes quite difficult. That doesn't mean that other language authors can't solve the problem. And it plays into what the original comment said, which is that managing dependencies in C/C++ is abysmal.
It’s hard to call it a side project because it became my highest revenue stream now after a year of building it, but I started a youtube channel with a friend. However, given that I put in less than 6 hours a week on it (working less and taking a smaller cut of profits), it still feels like a side project.

We started in January and are now at ~30k a month and growing steadily. Our revenue streams are split by ad revenue, patreon, sponsorships, and other various income split somewhat evenly. It took a year of working with seeing no profits, but now we are growing at a steady pace and just hired our first employee (an analyst, we are a finance youtube channel)! We see it more an an e-learning company with youtube as it’s main marketing base, as we are building out career courses (for investment banking and MBA stuff), a newsletter, and sites for helping people with their investments.

I’m the editor, and I vastly cut down my editing time by building out a program that does most of the editing for me using ffmpeg to automate 80% of the work. A video that might take 8 hours to edit only takes me 2 hours, and I think thats the biggest reason it feels like a sideproject still because of the optimized workflow.
What I don't understand is for $11 billion - can't we do 3 $3B space telescopes that work reasonably well? Spread risk? More science?

Let's say a Falcon 9 launch is $90M. Falcon heavy let's say $200M.

So you take your 3x $3B. Put $200M/instrument into launch, have $2.8B per telescope leftover.

There just seems to be something wrong that it costs THIS much to build a telescope.

That said, the Thirty Meter Telescope is also a sort of "forever" job, the delays have stretched on and on.

I wonder if you did something like bid out and paid just on performance instead of this forever cost reimbursement thing. Right now if you can get onto one of these mega projects, and can stretch it out with delays, it basically can cover your career (ie, 20 year projects).

IMO casual masking (stores, airplanes, etc) and a shot every 6 months isn't the annoying part about covid, it's the economic damage of lockdowns, school closures, social gatherings missed, extreme isolation of the vulnerable, travel not happening and the supply chain logjams it has been creating everywhere as a result. You can't go to an office consistently and have face to face lunches coworkers with as a result.
I can’t pick a best, but here are the best two:

* The British History Podcast

* The History of English Podcast

Both are very well-made and entertaining. The second might actually be the highest quality series of lectures I’ve ever heard (including sources in person like at university).
dataclasses also have the slots kwargs since 3.10. Should help with faster access and memory
I can completely relate to everything you wrote haha. I never mastered ш (which I guess is retroflex fricative?) vs щ and I've completely given up on hard vs. soft sounds in Russian because this

>and with lots of "you're kidding me, right? Those sounds are nothing alike"

Is too true. With practice and listening, my pronunciation is naturally improving over time, but I really don't know how to improve it in a faster way. Do you think learning and practicing IPA would do the trick, like you did with Swedish?
KiCad 6.0.0
Vernor is a proponent of ubiquitous sensors as an alternative or as an adjunct to AI; the example he likes to use is what he calls the "localizer", a simple sensor that can detect its position relative to other nearby sensors of the saem type.

So instead of complex vision systems to find, say, a part in a bin in a warehouse, a locator attached to the item would inform the network that it was "Two items down and three across in bin #243. Oh, and I am upside down", allowing a robot to quickly retrieve the item. It's an interesting approach to what Robert Forward called "artificial stupidity".

To be fair they did try multiple concurrency factors for asyncio and found that 60 was fastest, so this is not too far. Hopefully.

Depends on your native language there are harder and easier languages for sure. It is much easier for a Chinese to read and understand Japanese comparing to someone who don't know the symbols and need to learn it from scratch. It is easier to learn other languages from the same group, like learning a different latin language, germanic language or semitic language if you know one of them already. There are other factors also like similarities in grammatical structure, in variations of the language around situations which require more politeness or formality like in Japanese, written vs. spoken language like in Arabic and many other factors.
It wouldn't be explicit turning away, but if your in a triage situation, most doctors and medical systems will focus on the most time serious and the people they are most able to save if they have limited capacity. And if your not vaccinated, the ability to save you will be less than the vaccinated and the people with other acute medical issues that are not COVID. That is what will happen in practice in such a regime.
> The reaction to this seemingly benign observation was one of the strangest eruptions of outrage I’ve ever experienced on Twitter — and I’ve experienced quite a few. People were utterly infuriated by it....

> Then, as tends to happen with these little blowups, the private messages soon started trickling in — and they told a slightly different story. This time, they came from other people working in the TV/film industry who wanted to tell me about the ridiculously mind-bending COVID protocols they still have to deal with...

Has this guy been living in a hole? He's just observing evidence that COVID has become a polarizing social issue, and that both sides are populated by people. There's no insight here, just a bunch of people talking past each other all assuming their opinions are the supremely righteous ones, OP very much included.

Also, one of the biggest bullshit job of them all is "reflexive bureaucracy-condemner."
As far as I was aware, nicehash focuses on mining ETH at the moment and pays in BTC. At least that's what the default was for my setup.
The book in the course [1], specially ch. 4, I think, provides some analytical category-theoretical tools to model feasibility/performance in that kind of situation. In [2] the same technique (enriched profunctors) applies for critical path analysis in project management PERT diagrams. Looks to me (having just skimmed the Uber post) a very similar dependency structure.

Show HN: Free Chair Assembly Made with SolveSpace
I don't have very healthy relationship with online communications, and especially social media. Generally I find any disruption from deep thought, especially notifications from my phone, chat, and email, to be very aggravating or even stressful. If I'm really into my work, I will audibly grumble or say "what!" loudly (I work at home by myself so this doesn't bother anyone else). I have to carefully curate all notifications (and in the case of email, be diligent about unsubscribing from newsletters/marketing material I didn't sign up for) to minimize disruption for my own sanity.

Even when I'm not working, a generic notification from my phone is stressful because the thought that it could be something that I have to deal with right now doesn't go away until I check it. Because of this, I have to blacklist any application that will happily send me useless notifications, which includes basically all social media apps, which means I don't know when someone is genuinely trying to engage with me on social media unless I visit all the time. As a result, I basically don't use social media. It's unfortunate to miss things that people only plan via indirect communication because of that, but it is what it is. I definitely feel like the ubiquity of planning and communication via e.g. Facebook means that I miss out on a lot of social events and interaction, so I must ironically conclude that I am alienated from most of my peers as a result of social media.
SiRNA Based Therapeutics
There are vegans who encourage shunning animal products. And yes, there are critiques of people with the "gall" to eat meat. Those facts don't mean they are wrong. That's a matter of engaging with the actual arguments.

To say the RYF certifcation is hypocritical is a misunderstanding. They drew a line for certification that isn't 100% puritanical. They aren't absolutely impractical. They don't say that your points about firmware don't matter, they just wanted a line that could be practical for the certification.

I recognize your point, but your language and judgments are out of line. The FSF argues that embedded blobs that are completely unchangeable by anyone are similar to hardware. Now, I happen to agree with you that the lack of freedom is still a problem. But the distinction they make isn't totally illogical.

Vegan movements can be extreme too, and you can criticize them. But the level of animosity and defensiveness people get into shows that people are really sensitive about these things. It's as though they recognize that there might really be some fundamental issues with proprietary software or with meat, and the existence of the anti-proprietary or anti-meat views cuts people to the core. I mean, it's one thing to simply disagree, but it says a lot more when people are SO emotional about it.
How are you going to make that recommendation to your customers if they can't receive your emails?

(Of course I'm being facetious; other communication channels exist. But the idea made me think of the interrogation scene in The Matrix with Microsoft in the role of Agent Smith.)
Allowing people to dress how they please is hardly deference.
> In general, the only time anyone should use unbuffered output is when there’s a real person consuming it - for example, when you’re prompting a user for feedback or input.

I'm in the camp that logging should be always unbuffered. If you buffer logs, and your process dies for any reason, you lose your log exactly when you really need it to know what happened.
Besides a few other that have been mentioned, I like You're Wrong About (https://feeds.buzzsprout.com/1112270.rss). It covers ... let's say pop culture history, and how we often are ... completely wrong about how certain events really happened.

Atlas Obscura have a podcast, too: https://www.atlasobscura.com/podcast If you like the website, you're probably going to like the podcast as well.

If you know German, I can recommend Sternengeschichten (about astronomy) and Einschlafen Mit Wikipedia (they read articles from the German Wikipedia in a very quiet voice, great for falling asleep, as the title suggests).

Of those already mentioned, Fall Of Civilizations deserves special praise.

> True bilingualism-- learning two languages from birth-- is its own separate category of language acquisition. It's not uncommon for the learner to never quite learn either language as well as a single language learner. However the process, and learned facility for code switching, carries it's own cognitive advantages.

This is an interesting point indeed as it pertains to my experience. I believe I learned both English and Arabic from birth, however, my Arabic skills have atrophied and my English is definitely stronger but it could use some improvement. However, Levantine Arabic phonemes not found in English at all come naturally to me and when immersed in my home country I would be able to pick up vocabulary quickly and to some degree reading skills although I have very little education in that aspect.
Why were you calling println in a hot loop instead of using a logging library?
I found out recently that I'm "pre-banned" from Facebook. I don't know why, nor do I care. I stayed off of Facebook for a long time, because I figured it was a stupid idea. In a moment of drunk weakness I decided to sign up because I was bored and curious (~2019?).

Nope, not allowed to sign up. No idea why, no reason given. The email address and my real life identity is never used in any offensive way (or really in any way at all). I don't have some weird name that sounds offensive either.

They didn't offer any way to remedy, no way to contact, no way to do anything about it. I just said screw it, I probably shouldn't be on there anyway.

Yet what I know about it and what I've seen of it, people I've known are perfectly acceptable posting hate speech, violent threats, spreading misinformation about people for lulz deliberately, etc.

Why is this company not considered the same as 8chan? I don't really care if it exists, just why culturally is it considered some sort of bastion of existence and 8chan is demonized when I see them as equals?
