The problem that I’ve with latex is that it predates most of the modern software development.

Everything is in a giant namespace. Package management is a mess and packages often conflict.

No numeric characters in method names. If you want to use numbers, you can only hack it using names like \WidthXV.

No functions in the modern sense. Everything is just macro expansion.

Turing complete but hard to write any useful code. I have seen more code written in Brainfuck than LaTeX.

I buy a product to do a task. I have a Java making machine called a computer. I don’t care how much of the product it uses. As long as it performs the task. Anyone has used it knows there is simply no substitute. And I don’t care about every 4 years expensing a new laptop. Nobody has ever even acknowledged it.

Yes. Often in conversation people don't speak in absolutely precise terms, and especially about stuff like this. You are 100% right that that feels tautological when spoken about in that way, and I think it's a real issue with the way that ADHD is understood both amongst people who have it and people who don't.

The difference is, it may be tough for someone without it to focus on boring things. But they still can. But for folks with ADHD, it works a bit differently: first of all, sometimes your brain just kinda decides something isn't interesting, even if you consciously feel interested in it. And so you feel this paralysis, where you both really want to do something, and also just can't do something. Neurotypical adults can go "this sucks but I am gonna do it even if it's uncomfortable" and still get it done, but ADHD folks can be absolutely debilitated by being unable to accomplish tasks, even if they're important.
Who said abolish it? How about actually designing a system with enough slots so citizens can freely return? Other countries have done this, and controlled Covid, so why can Australia or NZ do it?

Ask HN: How do LCD devices run without any tangible power source?
I have a scale to weigh myself, I've had it for at least 30 years. The display is liquid crystal display (LCD). This scale has no user-accessible battery, yet it reliably displays my weight every time I step on it. I also have a MFA authentication card, recently acquired from a software vendor which requires MFA for login (TOTP), it is the exact size of every credit card I've ever had, so there is no apparent battery. Yet the LCD display on the card displays every time I press the "button". How is it that these LCD displays can work with no apparent source of electric power?

In my experience with a handful of teams so far, this has never consistently happened. There are always a few people (if not most of the team) that seem to not be able to be succinct. And many times, the standup turns into a back and forth between 2 or 3 members on a topic that's unrelated to what the rest of the members are doing and therefore a waste of their time.

And most of the time, it's just mind numbingly mechanical and boring, something to get over with so I can get on with my work.

I feel like a team meeting at the beginning of the week to sync up and then ad hoc meetings during the week between relevant parties would be better.

Maybe I've just had bad luck with stand ups or maybe it's me. Not sure.
Its a drawback, yes. But not a deal breaker for most people. Most professional users have good RAM and SSD, and start IntelliJ maybe once a day. It's "Good Enough ™"
I've used mine everyday since I got it a few years ago. It's mostly for podcasts and news. I've automated a few lights too. But, I've yet to find an app that's useful to me on a regular basis. It seems that there should be one but no luck.

For light control it's very useful and pretty cheap so if I only used it for that I would be happy.

Hey, do you happen to know if aac_at is encoding at the slowest speed? (Most compression efficiency but longest encoding time). I can't figure out for sure, so I keep bouncing audio through afconvert since it lets me set `-q 127`, and it's a pain, I'd rather do one step.

I have wondered if I have had ADHD or not. I like the suggestions. I also feel that confronting and healing wounds, such as wounds related to being bullied growing up or having a difficult upbringing may be very helpful for relieving ADHD symptoms. Being blunt, for example, is a symptom of ADHD; it is also, I feel, a reaction against years of feeling unheard -- something I think that can be confronted and healed so that one learns how to express themselves healthfully and in a wholesome way, without feeling unheard, but also without being overly confrontational.
Those schemes that attempt to bypass usury by calling it something else are not Islamic. Many scholars have called them out.

Proper Islamic finance involves risk from both parties. E.g. one party provides funding, the other provides labor, if the project succeeds, they both reap the rewards. If it doesn't, then the first party loses money and the second the labor.

Islam very clearly calls out schemes to construct loopholes to bypass prohibition. One such transaction is that of the Einah sale: one party sells an item for a certain amount to be paid by installments (say sells a car for $12,000 to be paid $1000 per month over the next year), then the same party buys the same car for $10,000 cash. What ended up happening is that party B owes party A $12,000 to be paid over the year, but they received $10K cash. This is absolutely forbidden. Similarly, any scheme that stitches together a series of individually permissible transactions to come up with an overall transaction that mimics interest is absolutely forbidden as well. We don't have loopholes in Islam.

The section states that Courts looking at cases under the Act cannot implicitly repeal or revoke, or make invalid or ineffective, or decline to apply any provision of any statute made by parliament, whether before or after the Act was passed because it is inconsistent with any provision of this Bill of Rights.

Your comment raises an interesting point: If I, a non-EU citizen who doesn't live in the EU, get locked out of my gmail account, would traveling to the EU and invoking GDPR be a viable way for me to force google to hand over my emails?

If yes, then I sense business potential. I for one would be willing to pay a lot of money to access my inbox.

No, it’s the CCP. The CCP is the government of the mainland and it is the government that makes the claim.

If you say so, but then can you explain why you created a throwaway account 3 years ago, only to use it now only for the purpose of defending the CCP’s claim to Taiwan?
Hopefully crypto will become more real in the future and offer a way out of the corrupt usurious fiat system.

I've been running my own email server for around 7-8 years and just setup a new email server on a DigitalOcean vps earlier this year using "Mail-in-a-Box".

That's about as easy as it gets but it still requires some work and you need to check the IP address DigitalOcean issues to see if it's blacklisted before you set it up.

Google makes it easy to get whitelisted. Microsoft email services (Hotmail/Outlook) are a pain though. I tried to get through their process but got nowhere. Other services I had to submit a request to get de-listed. So it does take awhile to go through all that.

Still, I prefer that to hitching that wagon to a 3rd party provider like Google, or any other.

Before I set mine up the 1st time I'd been screwed a few times by 3rd party providers. The last one, I can't recall which, but it was either "MailChimp" or whomever bought them, that I'd configured an app to use and almost as soon as I'd released it they announce they'd been acquired and I would have to use the new services APIs, and of course they cost more, and their services were geared towards mass mailing, and that's not what my apps do, and their API sucked for my needs.

It was about 12 years of dealing with 3rd party bullshit that motivated me to set up my own email server.

If you just want to fiddle around with one to get a feel for it Mail-in-a-Box is a good place to get started: https://mailinabox.email/
It’s obvious, because you spend more energy within the same duration.
The company failed because I couldn't figure out how to get critical mass on the supply side. I was based in LA. I tried and failed to get meetings with cab companies. Uber didn't go that route. They got the black car limos instead for their launch. That never occurred to me, nor anyone on my team. If it had, I might have succeeded.
NodeJS (V8) is faster than CPython, and NodeJS was built for this precise use case. I wouldn't use it over Python personally though, I don't use NodeJS and would sooner reach for Rust if performance mattered.

Concurrency is an important limitation as you've noticed, but it's already a problem for CPython. You would be able to squeeze out more req/s from NodeJS than CPython, up to a point where you would need to bring in something extra to scale to all the cores of one machine (multiprocessing in Python, something like Cluster in NodeJS) which you wouldn't need in Go/Rust/Java.

Then of course scaling further, you would need a system to run jobs across machines, and your choice of Go over Python wouldn't necessarily matter so much. The difference in performance wouldn't limit what you can do, it would just change what you pay for compute. If your compute costs more but your devs can implement features faster, performance is usually unimportant.

This is pretty dismissive to everyone with ADHD
There are no countries that allow people to dress how they please. There is no way that the state letting people walk around, say, naked, in the univeristies they operate _wouldn't_ be considered as deferring to the views of a particular nudist subculture.

The state in question has "not showing this kind of deference toward religions" as one of its founding principles: in fact, as founding principle number one. It states that certain personal lifestyle choices, such as religion, do not belong the public sphere. In the public sphere each individual should appear as a simple citizen, and not seek to distinguish thenselves from other citizens along religious lines.
No - you simply failed to account for why you created a throwaway account 3 years ago, only to use it now.
Testing like CX, not testing like QA.
Header files (or Doxygen), and the few official examples. Some of them use old and no longer recommended APIs/patterns, and have obvious problems as soon as you compile and use them without changing anything.

I say this as someone who has extended and maintained a libav* language binding with similarly terrible documentation. I tried to write more examples for people. But the API surface is vast and resources are extremely scarce. Sometimes you just have to dig into actual production code of FFmpeg (the CLI side), mpv, etc. to see how other people use it.
I could see a layperson like me thinking “yeah, thick concrete and fire doors; you’ll never need to fully evacuate”. I would expect architects, fire marshals, city planners, and other experts to see the obvious problem with this. Or at least one of them. It’a a single building. How do you build a plan around never needing to evacuate the place? It seems straightforward and appropriate to support a full evacuation strategy.

Is “stay in your flat while the building burns down around you” a common fire safety plan in the UK? Because that seems scary as hell. And also negligent.
I believe that is new in 6.0.

IIRC...one of the reasons I started using 5.99 nightly was because it had that feature.

I still think you’ve set things up so that the direction for the whole team almost exclusively has to come from you.

If you could share this responsibility with the team so they know the context and outcomes desired by the business, you’ll have a larger pool of good ideas, including from folks who deeply know the code and push the roadmap from that perspective.

Nope, making a paywall not show content to Google bots is a (slow) way to get us out of our misery.

Basically, as long as search traffic is more important to publishers, Google will have an upper hand.

If paywalls are in our future, getting there through Google should not be.

By working around paywalls, you are asking publishers to not mess the search results or not to give Google preferential treatment (depending on your angle).

Try reaching out to old friends, share your phone number and transition to phone calls. Text messaging is what makes many feel so disconnected because there are no vocal or facial expressions involved.

Also, just practice talking to random strangers, you'll find that some people who are just hanging out outdoors in parks are going through the same emotions you are.

Don't place expectations on anyone to be a committed friend, just start chats with strangers and let that be it until you feel comfortable with asking for phone numbers or coffee/tea hangouts and then work up from there. Don't expect anything from anyone, work on your personal happiness, hobbies, being available when people try to chat with you, and stability (financial, mental, and physical health) in the world. Some of the best conversations I've had in life were one-time chats with strangers, they tailor their words to us less than friends because they don't know us.

You'll be surprised how friendships just fall into view when you do that without expectations. Don't think about it, just try it.
Like you, I have domains registered for 10 years and extend it every year so that it always remains at 10 years.

If you switch registrars, your domain validity continues as before. Your registration information is with the registry for your TLD, not with the registrar alone. So your 10 years of (future) ownership will carry over. Two caveats to note. The first is that you can’t transfer a domain within 60 days of purchase or renewal. The second that I’ve seen is that a transfer to another registrar requires a one year renewal for the domain. So I’m guessing you may not be able to transfer a domain that’s already at 10 years (even taking into account 60 days after the renewal to keep it at 10 years). But if your domain is at nine years, you’d surely be able to transfer, and it would become 10 years at the time of transfer.

The expiry date never changes through all these actions.

The headers are actually pretty good.

I learned to use libav by trial and error over years, and now I'm at the point where I can just look at the headers for a refresher whenever I use it.

At a very broad level:

- Encoding and decoding are both pipelines

- Codecs and formats are both part of a pipeline

- An instance of a codec or a format is called a _context_

- The two basic operations for any context are "put data in" and "pull data out"

Putting this all together, a lot of tutorials present this as a case of "Just push the input data in, then pull the output data out!" In my experience this is backwards. This leads to "pipeline buckling" where, e.g., you pull a compressed packet from the demuxer and try to push it into the decoder, and the decoder says "hey, slow down, my buffers are full". You have to just awkwardly stick that packet in your pocket until the decoder's buffers are dry again.

I have always had better luck pulling data. e.g. If you're decoding, first try to pull a decompressed YUV frame from the decoder. If that fails, then try to get a new packet from the demuxer. Only if that fails (and you're not using the default file I/O), then feed the demuxer another buffer. This way it never buckles. It results in a few redundant "Can you give me anything?" checks when warming up the pipeline, but you never have buffers awkwardly outliving a loop iteration. If a buffer enters your control, it's always because you already found an empty spot in the next stage to immediately dump it into.
