Vim doesn't do it "well" with the settings above, just "good enough". The time stamp suffix is calculated just once when you start Vim, set in the global backupext option. If we :e edit files in an existing Vim session, they all get backups with that time stamp. It needs to be calculated as a buffer-specific value of that option, if there is such a thing, on every new edit.

A Tokamak fusion reactor would destroy itself in short order: the superconducting magnet windings are blasted with hot neutrons whenever it is operating. The liquified metal neutron-absorbing "blanket" is in pipes that are being blasted with hot neutrons, and will weaken and need to be replaced, but they have become seriously radioactive, so you have to replace them using robots. Which will become radioactive, too. You are processing the molten stuff to refine out tritium you have been breeding in it, that you need for fuel. The power density is very low, so you need an absolutely monstrous machine to get as much power out as from a lump of uranium.

Because it has to be so big, it has to be very expensive, several times as much as a fission plant. And, take much longer to build. That much money with no expectation for any power delivered for many years is catnip for the corrupt, as for any big-ticket public works item where the costs of components are far from obvious. (Cf. NASA STS and SLS, Boston's "Big Dig", California's "Bullet Train to Nowhere", F-35, New York's 2nd Ave subway.)

Nope, before the Sino-Soviet split and shortly thereafter there was zero serious effort to build jet engines. They were producing Soviet designs under license and working on that until the mid 80s.

China never, ever, ever had anywhere near the engineering resources of the Soviet Union. To suggest as much is insanity. They arrived to that level somewhere before 2010.

China already has competitive engines. They can and do simply buy Russian engines. Domestic engine development is a nice-to-have, and not a huge priority. This is obviously reflected in the low budgets and the low number of employees in these programs. This is public information.

I think you're underselling Java and C++. The JVM idea is clever because it means you do all the portability stuff as part of the language, rather than asking programmers to do ifdefs for every platform. Making it a safe, memory-managed language is clever because most programmers don't care about the performance hit, but they do care about the bugs.

C++ has equally compelling advantages. If you write less code, you get less bugs, and more work done at less eyeball-hours. If you can do that 'zero-cost', with abstractions, a lot of people who care about performance are going to find that really exciting.

Rust basically continues this pattern.

Obviously you have to sort of win the lottery as well, because you need enough people to bring the language from clever-research-project to useful industrial tool, but I think the fundamental point is that successful languages have both luck, and a killer feature.

I imagine all of these languages will sink out of sight at some point, because it's just clear that as a culture we're in the very early days of living with computers, so these languages are a bit like bone needles or flint axes. I still think the innovations contained in them will go on to inform future development.

I'm sorry, I can't take you seriously. Nowhere in the world can match the efficiency of Chinese manufacturing. They can do more with less in a way no other country in the world can, which is the simple truth. Even countries with worse labour standards, even countries with worse environmental regulations (and there are dozens and dozens).

This is simply a product of developing and inventing new ideas and technology, and using them to produce trillions and trillions of dollars of wealth. If it was simply about poor labor rights and environmental regulations they wouldn't be where there are today, as there is a large number of countries with much more permissive environments.

Twenty years ago people said that it was all just because their wages are low. Now their wages are higher than several EU countries and almost all of South America, and they still are doing more with less. There is no other explanation, this is simply because they have expertise, ideas, and innovations that others countries don't or can't put into practice. The bite is absolutely matching the bark.

If there really isn't much innovation and expertise there, everyone else would be doing it. The prize here is in the trillions of dollars.
Could be good for some hobbyist deployments though.
Blood tests have also been around decades and are taught to first year students. The devil is in the details.

In this case the people claiming COVID PCR tests were bogus were right. The US CDC has now admitted it. They recently changed their testing rules to stop PCR testing people at the end of their self isolation period because PCR tests can stay positive for up to 12 weeks whilst being clinical false positives, and thus (Rochelle Walensky's words) "we would have people in isolation for a very long time if we were relying on PCRs" [1]. Nothing changed to prompt this - no new science or discovery or anything like that. They just suddenly noticed something that random bloggers knew in April 2020: that COVID PCR positives don't imply you're infectious. Also note the use of the word "would" and not "did"; apparently she's in denial about what happened here.

There are lots of other issues with them beyond the cold positive problems of course. In theory PCR tests are precise because they triangulate the presence of at least three genes. In the beginning that's what they looked for. Over time that's slipped and they're now routinely reporting PCR tests as positive if they only detect a single gene. I took a PCR last week where the certificate stated outright they only looked for one gene.

This crops up in other ways. To detect Omicron, they were taking PCR tests that failed to trigger on one gene (thus technically should have been classed as negative) and then treated them as positives, being sent for sequencing to determine if they were Omicron or not. But only samples with Ct <= 30 were sent. They use this threshold when normally even 40 is accepted to be a positive (Ct is log scale so 40 is a very tiny level of detection compared to 30) because it turns out any sample that triggers over 30 is so destroyed it's unsequenceable. They can't even find enough viable virus to know what it is. That doesn't stop them classifying such samples as "infectious and must self isolate" normally, though.

And all that's before you even get to the cause/effect confusion the tests represent.

No, COVID PCR testing is a mess. The only reason Holmes is a convict and those guys aren't is that Holmes wanted to be the next Steve Jobs, so she worked entirely in the private sector. If she'd been selling COVID stuff to the government she'd have been fine, even doing the same things.

Postgres is nearly always the right choice. But I've had major breaking changes in the Ruby ecosystem really bite me in the past.
I want CSS to make spacing decisions so that I don't have to, and a system where graphical elements look good by default because they come with appropriate margins and containers adapt to what I want them to contain (e.g. by shrinkwrapping the content or by switching between different numbers of columns or rows) is more useful than a non-system that looks bad unless I keep many tedious ad-hoc specifications consistent.

Moreover,

> Margin breaks component encapsulation. A well-built component should not affect anything outside itself.

Definitely not, margins are an essential part of a component, like a garden around a house, and they make components "usable in any context or layout" (unless the context or layout is stupidly overcomplicated).
Anyone got suprised?
There's nothing in the HN Guidelines which would suggest this sort of article is disallowed: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

Also, everything that's unpleasant to consider isn't a 'conspiracy'. Labs have performed gain-of-function experiments that create nastier viruses fairly regularly, often proudly publishing their work. Those same kinds of labs, while they always try not to, sometimes leak dangerous disease-causing agents - typically by infecting a researcher who then infects others in the community.

So the speculated chain of events doesn't even require any malice – just known-to-happen events cooccuring at an inopportune time.

And how can "armchair detective work" like this be "dangerous"? Hackers love to engage in armchair detective work! Unless there are reckless accusations placing potentially innocent people in danger – not at all true of this article – there's no grounds for suppressing good faith discussion, at least not in any culture that values open discussion of ideas, including even suspect ideas, to confirm/refute/improve them.
>I didn't (at the time) know that PDFs could "phone home" to report details of the system reading a PDF. A selinux profile denied access to the internet, and it was many months (and 100s if not 1000s of PDFs read) before one attempted network access and denied it. Ubuntu and Redhat (and I'm sure others) have reasonable defaults, so much of the work is already done for you.

And does this happen on android aswell? Because a lot of custom rom/ root users run selinux as permissive for compatibility, so these pdfs would have full network access
First detection is an indicator of that, when it was first detected, not a guarantee that it was first there. Only a very small fraction of RT-PCR positive samples are sent for sequencing under normal conditions.

> Omicron COVID was in Italy as early as 2021-10-13 – 7 weeks before alarm from South Africa.

7 weeks before the alarm, but only 10 days before in retrospective sampling, and even less in other places in Africa.

Saying it appeared in Italy but somehow it spread in Southern Africa first goes against normal epidemiological dynamics, especially given how contagious Omicron is. The chances are it started where the first cluster is detected, not where the first retrospective case is detected, because the possibility of it escaping in Italy, flying to SA, and somehow staying dormant in Italy while giving SA a head-start is extremely unlikely.

The book "The Mom Test" written by Rob Fitzpatrick may help you with that. It presents ways to ask non-leading questions and understand the flow of discussion such that even your mom wouldn't be able to lie to you.

It's a short book without fluff, I recommend.
Hmm, dunno, I thought it was a great article, with the main takeaway being that GoF research is unequivocally and inarguably dangerous AF, should be halted ASAP, if not forever then for a long period of time where we can proverbially have a breather such that the scientific community can engage in an official reassessment/reexamination upon its safety and viability.

Agree, collapsing margins are counterintuitive, and only applied to top and bottom margin. It’s really surprising how many people don’t know it’s a thing and fight the box model. If you think you’re constantly fighting layout, try to read the MDN docs [1] with a fresh eye. I was guilty to think I needn’t learn CSS, and reading the MDN really help me.

You have to decode what they say. Which is really hard because obviously working on the product yourself, you want to believe they care about your product.

For example:
- "This is awesome! I would absolutely use this if it would just have this one extra feature it does not have now." --> I absolutely don't care about this product. Please leave me alone. I have better things to do.
Nice, though it seems like cards come out only upright (I only drew a few cards).

One can still additionally flip a coin heads=upright/tails=reversed to manually correct the issue.
> Also, efficiency is not everything. We are not computers that can just chug away on tasks infinitely. Any non trivial work, you won't be able to finish in one sitting. Some interruptions are inevitable and healthy and whatever methodology, you will lose some progress on the way and have to rework things. And it's also about priorities in life. Is the work-related, unfinished task really important / interesting enough to get stuck in your head outside of work hours? Maybe the problem is not getting interrupted, but ability to interrupt yourself and separate different aspects of life.

Very sound advice thank you so much

> If you want something done why not just put it all in the job description? This is in jest, as we obviously both know why. I'm not faulting you from playing the game to your advantage, but I also can't fault the other side from playing the same game to their advantage.

Because that's entirely unrealistic (like you said, we both know that), and normally there are broad descriptions about 'enabling', 'supporting', 'growing', 'innovating' etc. If I could exactly specify what the every task was, then I'd program a computer to do it (half joking).

It sounds like he is getting well compensated, however, I see your point, and in my case its not about trying to squeeze more out of people for a lower cost, typically its more about developing people and growing skills and leadership.

I don't entirely disagree with the OP, my point is be careful with whom you do this with, in some places this is totally fine, in others its morally dishonest (less bothered personally about the contract stuff, as that is typically cookie cutter guff).
