My wife is from a family of fiercely independent Filipino immigrants. She's always been super levelheaded. I lucked out with her. Her late father was a chemist, and her uncles are all practicing physicians. They were all universally shocked when the push to vaccinate kids started. They know it's not dangerous to kids. They can't even talk about it without lapsing into angry rapid Tagalog. She was right there with them.

Here's a new editorial from a prof at Johns Hopkins:

Might be useful in those conversations on previous infection. And I agree regarding the social fabric being destroyed by these bureaucrats. They are going to slowly try to find a way to ease out of this in a manner that minimizes the damage to their reputations. That's what political elites have always done when their narratives crumble after they have dug in. See the utter absence of contrition or self reflection after the Iraq wmd fiasco for an example. Or Vietnam. They don't care how much damage they do in the process.
I can't speak to the others, but I have very little faith in modern car computers lasting that long. They have become so complex, gaining additional sensors and controls for improved safety and efficiency (great!) and requiring special programming tools at the dealership to update software or install some replacement parts (not so great!). If the company goes under or can no longer support an aging car computer system, a single part failure could limit the functionality of the vehicle. (SAAB TechII, cars with 2G/3G modems, etc.)

On the other hand, if you're talking about older ECUs and related systems before the rise of the connected digital dash, you're probably right. The one in my car is 40 years old, and it seems to be built to last at least 50 if the rest of the car can hold on that long.
Maybe. But we needn't compare driverless cars against some hypothetical morally perfect agent. We compare them against humans. Some humans might instinctively sacrifice themselves to save a baby carriage or an old lady. Many more will instinctively act to preserve themselves regardless of the consequences. Even more will panic and make bad decisions that cause needless deaths that a self-driving car would have avoided.

I had a cousin who died because he swerved to avoid a squirrel and drove off a cliff. I don't think anyone would argue that we should program cars to prioritize squirrels over people, but humans will end up doing that sometimes.

The possible amount of lives saved by the overall reduction in accidents with a competent self-driving car is going to be far, far greater than any 1-in-a-billion moral dilemma situations that they might encounter and where they might make choices that are not "optimal" as decided by some human who is looking at the situation after the fact with the time to think coolly and composedly about it.

Like everywhere in the world, it still depends on where you live. In capital cities, the working people sometimes live alone in their own/shared apartment, so cooking for yourself is less preferred since food stalls are affordable and almost everywhere.

But in small cities or villages, you usually live with your main family or even your big family, so it's cheaper to cook in large batches at home everyday.

I'd also confidently say (I'm Indonesian) that almost all house has a rice cooker, so you could count that as cooking right?
As long as I can still enter the date manually in the textfield, I don’t mind a picker.

"Let's Roll" was a Bush slogan when Neil released that song.

If you read my comment carefully, I said he "eventually came around", i.e. the 2006 album.

I specifically remember him being on TV supporting war in the middle east. I found some quotes to corroborate my memory:

"Many artists also seemed to take unpredictable positions as spokespeople. Neil Young shocked his audience at the 2001 People for the American
Way gala, at which he received a Spirit of Liberty Lifetime Achievement
Award, when he endorsed administration policy by saying­ that “we’re
going to have to relinquish some of our freedoms for a short period of
time.” [1]

"We're going to do the job, and then we're going to get back to being who we are." [2]

But somehow my comment gets flagged, because everyone can't believe that their hero made a mistake, which over 90% of the US population made by the way.

- Unflavored casein protein powder (mix with water, glug down like milk)

- Quality multivitamin / supplements

- Pectin and/or psyllium husks (fiber)

- Spoonful of extra virgin olive oil

- Electrolyte drink (salt, potassium chloride, magnesium citrate powder, and vitamin C powder; add water until it's tolerable to drink)

That gives you most of what you need with no prep other than adding water. It wouldn't taste good, and I wouldn't advocate doing it for a very long time without eating real food. But I've eaten along these lines as part of some experiments I did on myself, and I had no gastric distress other than that I needed the fiber to not get backed up.
With Mega Corporations themselves changing back to server side rendering due to the slow web frameworks like React, your reasoning stands vindicated.[1]

As a side note, I would also like to mention that OP in spite of having probably the fastest hand held computer wasn't able to mitigate some of the issues of the web like useless scripts, Ads etc. because Apple doesn't provide that control to the users; Where an android at fraction of the cost with Firefox and UBlock Origin/No Script could have provided a better web experience.

Coincidentally I built one yesterday at well. Opposite approach. As little code as possible.

First of all

Input type=date

On Android shows a date picker that many users have found confusing to operate. They can't figure out how to select the year. I used to say "not my problem" but it actually was because they still complained.

So

Input type=month

Solves that first problem and then a day selector does the rest but that's an unfamiliar paradigm so...

I wanted year/month/day in a way that uses will find easy. One for each then.

There's many existing options and they use a lot of code. I mean just an insane amount. I don't want a boatload of code to select a date in a way that users won't complain.

The browser already knows everything about dates, so we can just ask it how many days are in a month and what the name of the month is.

Leap years, leap seconds, it's all in there. No wheel reinventing necessary

So we have one of our two key lines

let maxday = new Date(year, month, 0).getDate();

(It'll be further explained at the end.)

2nd part; let's not have an array of month names. Instead, let's ask the browser for what the user calls the months based on their first language:

Intl.DateTimeFormat(
navigator.languages[0],
{month: 'long'})
.format( new Date(startyear, i) )

So they select the year, then the month, then we use that as a query to find out how many days are in the month by asking the default Date object, already built in.

And all together now

What? The html date picker just uses the system date picker. And the value is formatted as yyyy-mm-dd when you submit it, that's not the US date format.
"Let's Roll" was adopted as a Bush slogan at the time. The lyrics also talk about going where evil hides and rooting them out.

He clearly supported the administration. I replied to another comment in this thread with sourced quotes.

The vast majority of Americans were of the same mind as Neil, and they all eventually turned against the administration when it was clear what was going on.

People are too quick to flag comments.
In theory there is no evidence for that in almost any mathematical model. Since paying off goverment debt is almost mathematically impossible goverments are forced to borrow even if the interest is high leading to more inflation over the long term.

In practice people are scared into borrowing less and pay off their existing debts.
This is true. Because other software engineers built things, I osmosed their knowledge through the Layer 8 network. All software engineers are linked through the Khala- our sacred union of mind and machine. This ushered in our golden age, the so called Boom of Kim Dotcom.

But a new era has arisen, with a new God from this combined mind. Copilot rises and casts a great shadow on us all.

In past years, children were born with monads in their minds, functors at their fingers. Teens rose from sleep speaking in bytecode and LLVM IR. But now that is lost, mankind’s combined mind is being eaten by the power of Copilot and the children’s fingers only hit Tab.

We should never have known each other so intimately. The risen god of our inbred mind is a dark spiral. Thought itself fades.

As a high concept, the idea of quick and personalized scraping of web pages as structured data sheets is a powerful one.

I suppose `right click > save as data row` could become a web standard, with 1st support and third party scrape scripts filling in the gaps.

If you truly cook regularly, you should get better at it slowly over time, just like any other skill/hobby. That includes getting better at timing and efficiency of preparation.

A lot of recipes are simple, cheap, and quick. An egg/cheese/meat on a muffin takes 5 minutes to make tops and really only produces three dirty dishes. Salad mix + dressing + heated up frozen meat like frozen chicken tenders that go in the oven. Overnight oatmeal. Greek Yogurt. Baked potato in the microwave. There's a seriously long list of recipes that are dead simple.

Most grocery stores sell ingredients that are at least partially processed but better than frozen meals. Your seafood/meat section has pre-seasoned meats, and the produce section has pre-sliced/chopped fruits and veggies.

Also, have the right tools for the things you like to make. Like salads? Get a vegetable dicer/chopper. Do you mix a lot of things? Get a stand mixer. Are your knives sharp? You should be honing your knives and sharpening around once a year give or take. Make lots of pasta? Boil your water in an electric kettle (faster) before transferring to the pot on the stove.

Other advice I have is to use curbside grocery pickup. Order your groceries online and pick them up. It's free and saves a whole lot of time.

If you want to save even more time, have groceries delivered.

Also, make your meals with enough portions for leftovers. Many foods can also be frozen if they'd otherwise spoil. You can even look into things like vacuum bags to improve the way leftover food saves.

I would guess the doubling is because AWS IAM and Terraform both do interpolation with `${...}`, and this is one way it can look like when Terraform passes un-evaluated template strings to AWS. (I think recent versions of the TF AWS provider use `&{...}` for slightly improved legibility here.)

SREs live in a special kind of hell and are often willing to accept partial solutions that other SWEs would turn their noses at. If most software tools are "80% solutions," Terraform is more like 70%. And yet it is far, far better than what came before. (And to be quite frank, Pulumi is fundamentally the same as TF and suffers from very similar shortcomings, despite its veneer of more flexible programmability.)

That said, pulling up a random PR and making cantankerous and baseless claims about its authors and their employer strikes me as ridiculous.

I put a lot of effort into figuring out this conundrum for myself two years ago and never got to a solution.

I used to live in a large city and basically off of fast food. I then moved to a rural area and then got a diagnosis that means I can't eat wheat. Those two things have made it basically necessary that I cook for myself twice a day, which is an insane amount of time and effort that I consider wasted, as food ranks quite low on my personal ranking of priorities.

"I don't care how it tastes" was my initial starting point, too, but many options are just too bad to bear. Vanilla-flavoured superfood shakes, when mixed with a hand shaker and when I don't use ice-cold water, for example, actually bring me to the edge of vomiting. Food just shouldn't be that bad.

In my exploration of that direction, the local optimum I got to was vanilla Huel mixed in a blender with frozen red berries. This would be impractical for some people, as you have to wash the blender parts and drink it right after blending, or keep it refrigerated, which you can't do when you're on the go. Working remotely from home, however, this worked nicely for me.

But: Depriving myself of real food just remained a constant drain on my willpower, and I ultimately had more important things to do with my limited willpower resource. The reduced effort around food preparation was just not worth it.

Then I started learning to cook while intensely focusing on reducing recipes to their bare essentials. I also optimized efficiency by always using my kitchen utensils to full capacity and refrigerating/reheating components of future meals or even entire meals, where possible. It was still a boatload of work—way more than I ever felt happy putting into this.

The next thing that happened was that I got into a long-distance relationship with someone with different dietary restrictions. This complicates the refrigeration/reheating part of the equation, as it distributes food consumption between two households, and taking food with you means breaking the cooling chain.

At this point, it's just, "Ahh, screw it; this is just an inescapable fact of life".

This is mostly a bad idea.

(defun oblivion (thunk)
(let ((successfulp nil))
(unwind-protect (multiple-value-prog1 (funcall thunk)
(setf successfulp t))
(unless successfulp
(error "STOP RIGHT THERE CRIMINAL SCUM")))))

Supose (funcall thunk) signaled a very well thought-out error, filled with useful information. The error found a handler somewhere, and that handler found the perfect place to transfer control to.

But, oops, you hamfistedly intervened in that, and replaced that with your generic error.

You sometimes need let over unwind-protect not to throw an error, but to know whether or not to clean something up.

(defun do-it (handle)
(let ((transaction-completed nil))
(unwind-protect (progn (prepare-transaction handle)
(commit-transaction handle)
(setf transaction-completed t))
(unless transaction-completed
(roll-back handle)))))

The cleanup handlers of an unwind-protect always execute. But you don't always need them to do their clean-up. In this case, we want to abort the partially done transaction, but avoid doing so in the happy case.

I think this makes for a better illustration of why you're sometimes only interested in the non-local exit.

Ask HN: Has going to the cinema/movie theatre changed for you?
This is a study of US movie-goers during the COVID pandemic and suggests that going to the movies is at a crossroads in the US.

The study [PDF]:

https://thequorum.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Exhibition-At-A-Crossroads-11.29.21.pdf

About the study: "For Exhibition to thrive, it has to win back those who used to, but no longer go to the theater. This study looks at who those people are and what would get them to return"

---

All respondents in the study were asked to self-identify into one of five groups below.

Which do you identify with (if any)?

Avid movie-goer: frequently go to the cinema/move theater

Infrequents: only sees one or two movies in theatres - no change change due to COVID

Reluctants: returned to theaters in spring, stopped when Delta variant emerged

Hopefuls: Same as the 'reluctants' above. Returned to theaters in spring but stopped when the Delta variant emerged

Likely losts: haven't been to theaters since the pandemic began; don’t see themselves returning in the future.

---

Could upgrades to the theatrical experience would bring people back? Respondents in the study rated the following features positively:

- More space between seats

- Newer seats

- Ability to order food from seat

- More large format screens

- Enforcement of phone usage

- Fewer commercials

Your thoughts?
A lot of software isn't quite like a plan. It's more like a training manual with hundreds of plans for different scenarios and rules for choosing them and how to modify them.

People who write individual plans don't reuse them or believe in reuse. They're useless once the plan needs to change.

People who write metaplans aren't solving problems, they're trying to to solve general classes of problems, like "Manage booking at any business that has things that are booked"

But why? Joe Rogan doesn’t publish news. The podcast is in the form of a conversation between two people. He does talk about current events, just as everybody else does when they have a conversation.

He doesn’t make any claim that is show is anything more than two people chatting. If anyone is using JRE as a trusted news source, then they are an idiot. You can’t stop people from being idiots, nor should we attempt to childproof the entire world on their behalf.
