The cities didn't have much choice when those stores were built outside of city limits or in a neighboring town.

Lay the blame where the responsibility resides: with the consumers who chose bulk over local.

>Like the normal guy isn't trading interst rate derivates or stuff like that.

Heh, funny you say that, because there was the submission about the danger of the 30-year fixed mortgage, and how the typical borrower is in fact, making an effective bet on interest rate derivatives!

>> It's as close to a de facto standard as possible.

Then why not put it in the standard library?

If it is mature enough, then why not add it so anyone can use it without having to dowload it everytime? So that new users to Rust are not forced to search through all the possible candidates to find the best answer?

If it is not ready, sure wait until it is or use something better.

In the industry I work in, software needs to be mature, stable, and boring. I would love to start using Rust at work, but it is not ready in terms of maturity and stability because of reasons like these.

Rust needs a standard.

Rust needs multiple mature implementations.

Rust needs a standard library that covers enough "everyday" use cases that you don't have to download half of crates.io to accomplish everyday tasks

Perhaps it will be ready in 10 to 15 years.

Until then, we will keep building things in C and C++.
There are Hemp alloys.

From https://motonetworks.com/worlds-greenest-car-somebody-made-c... :

> It’s actually made using hemp fibers that have been woven together and then sealed and finished with as super hard resin. And once it’s completed you have an insanely strong material that makes steel look weak and brittle. It’s reported to be as much as ten times stronger than steel, yet is lighter than fiberglass.

> The Renew Sports Car was recently featured on an episode of Jay Leno’s Garage [...]*

> Dietzen got the idea from none other than Henry Ford who back in 1941 advocated that Ford should build everything they possibly could out of plant material. Which makes sense because that’s obviously going to drastically reduce material costs which should in turn, reduce the overall price of the car. And thanks to modern technology, Dietzen managed to figure out how to make it all work. If this catches on to the mainstream it could revolutionize the automotive industry across the board. He says that it takes roughly 100lbs of cannabis plants to make a car, which sounds like a lot, but when compared to how much steel and other metals used to create current automobiles that’s just a drop in the bucket.

>Paying low wages subsidizes the wealthy.

Only if they're only able to pay low wages because of welfare making up the difference between what a person would actually work for (without welfare) and what they're currently paying. You seem to be in favor of welfare in at least some circumstances, so your simultaneous opposition to it is rather confusing. If you are against us making up the difference, then you're against welfare. You're going to have to make up your mind here, do you want to risk 'subsidizing the wealthy' (indirectly while you subsidize the poor) to help some poor, or do you want to really stck it to the poors by eliminating this welfare so that the wealthy can't gain whatever perceived benefits you see by the working poor being given aid. Keep in mind subsidizing the wealthy is really nonsensical statement here once you realize the middle and upper class are the ones paying for these tranfer payments to the poorer amongst us anyway.

>Work should pay enough to live on. When is doesn't, we make up the difference with charity or a social safety net.

You can have charity or social safety net while simultaneously not having minimum wage. Again, this is why I'm in favor of structuring aid so that employing a person's full capacities is the highest revenue option for them. That is, gradually phasing out as people earn more. I don't see a 'trap' where you HAVE to generate at least minimum wage worth of value or else you're stuck with your skills and fitness possibly atrophying as a good soluton. I also don't think you can will your way into every 'work' being profitable enough to ensure the survival of everyones unique living situation ( ex: a single mom with diabetes needs significantly more resources than a healthy 20 year old that's happy living in a tent in the woods ). You wouldn't outlaw the healthy 20 year old's job just because it doesn't generate enough for the single mom; and maybe the 20 year old is gaining skills at work to let him earn enough to someday fall in love with and marry the single mom and help take care of the family.

> Here comes the old trope that everyone needs employment to be happy.

No but many people are happier if they're able to start putting themselves more and more in a position where they survive from their own wits and abilities rather than handouts. I just want people who are unhireable at current minimimum wage to have the OPTION to work at the best wage they can negotiate. We shouldn't resort to the old trop the poorest among us are unproud people who just want to suck the government teet.

> We can afford to establish a floor and take care of people below it.

Again, you can establish a floor while simultaneously allowing people to gradually escape this floor rather than a winner-take-all scenario where those who benefit from minimum wage snuff out those who can't make the cut. Previously you made this floor sound like a 'subsidy to the wealthy' so I really wish you would make up your mind here.
Except some disagreeable speech is different than others, e.g., hate speech -- that is speech advocating violence towards classes of people.

And the right is very comfortable suppressing speech when it comes to their boogeyman du jour, "CRT".

That said, of course censorship is a dangerous thing but some "free speech" is also dangerous in itself. Right-wing talk radio and Fox have engaged in speech designed to cause division and hate in America. It's covert hate speech and I'm not suggesting that it be censored but it sure as hell should not be celebrated.
Well the healthcare numbers have some other interesting biases - for instance that paying less on healthcare is implied as good (as it’s coloured in green rather than red).

But this then puts, for instance, Botswana as green for healthcare spending when compared to the UK despite the UK health outcomes being better.

Also, when I clicked on Botswana I also noticed that their GDP per capita figures are completely wrong.
This is a great piece of advice and definitely applies to software development in 2022.

It probably even applies to system and organization design in general.

most smart contracts that deal with tokens (swaps, borrowing, etc) use the ERC-20 standard. WETH is a simple smart contract where you deposit X eth and you receive x weth in return (where weth is a token that adheres to the ERC-20 standard). you can then use that weth to swap, borrow and lend in the same way you would with any other erc-20 token.

most users never have to deal with the WETH contract because defi platforms will automatically do the wrapping/unwrapping for you.

the vast majority of the WETH minted by this contract is used for

a) providing liquidity on DEXs (where ~ 50% tokenA and 50% tokenB are deposited to collect trading fees)

b) collateral in a lending platform (e.g. deposit WETH and borrow USDC)

c) bridged to another chain (e.g. bridge WETH to Avalanche or Solana or whatever)
Wow. JavaScript reverse engineering.
This has got me thinking - why don't we just stack rank all federal judges and pick the top 9 to be on the Supreme Court? I mean obviously it's a silly question but interesting to think about the KPIs for judges. But I believe really the answer is that today when law is effectively written by the courts, the main consideration is how they will vote. And given that the court is currently stacked to vote only for elite conservative priorities, it hardly matters who Biden picks anyway.
If you are choosing to live in one of these places, there is probably someone in your household not working who is going to mind the kids and help engage in homemaking.

You will also find you have neighbors in similar situations who likely run a small group daycare operation for a bit of extra cash.

Yes, your kid is not going to have as many teachers. They will also have far, far, far fewer peers and smaller classroom sizes. They will get more attention from the teachers.

If your kid wants to do AP or SAT prep, you will find your local school can run the course after hours. You can probably hire one of their teachers.

Even a completely free piece of land and free housing isn't a substitution for basic infrastructure and diverse local culture. Maybe if you have a growing family or are retirement age, but with the childless 35 and under crowd growing I can't imagine wanting to move to the middle of nowhere.

If i am understanding correct, drugstore are pharmacy that sell medicines. How did that come to overlap with film development business?
Yes, that is your ego talking and it’s fine.

But we can’t tell you what will stroke your ego. You need to look at companies whose missions you think matter (if you actually care about their mission) and then find roles at those companies that will stroke your ego.

Or just skip the mission and look for roles that stroke your ego. Do ad shit at Facebook or Google and donate money to soothe your conscience.
Thanks for writing this! Is there anything major people should look out for with the newer language version or any advice you would offer to something looking into writing a webpage in Nim today?

I am working on a small side project in Nim and saw your post and thought it was very well done.
This is the largest reason I stopped shooting film, the processing infrastructure disappeared.

I think analytic departments would disagree with you. Also, what poetry does is defamiliarize language. It's impact is emotional. It isn't philosophy.
I think there's an important distinction between infringing on free speech and being anti-free speech, and that Young only fell into the latter. Now had Spotify caved, then a lot of people would call that the former.

As another example, imagine a group of protesters arguing for the repeal of the Bill of Rights. Since that includes the First Amendment, their position is clearly anti-free speech, but they're not infringing on anyone's free speech by having their protest. (And in fact, if someone tried to ban that protest, they'd be the ones infringing on free speech.)

None of this is making any sense. There is no cure for T1 Diabetes and it is lifelong. There is no reason to have any of these requirements, middlemen, authorizations or whatever.
I haven't watches Seinfeld, but I'm under the impression that the main characters are actually the villains, right? The Soup Nazi did nothing wrong (I assume)!
Good points. Though it would be a good debate that Go would be a better beginner language. Java's forcing of class based OOP would cause an avalanche of other kinds of problems that Go and C don't have to deal with.
A while ago I was tinkering with Quicksort and avoiding branch mispredictions.

https://easylang.online/blog/qsort_c.html

My implementation is pretty fast. At a size of 40 or 50, I switch to Insertion sort, and there the branchless bubblesort is significantly slower (I just tried it).

But I have to admit defeat to this Sample sort:

As someone who grew up in a farm town of 3k and went to public schools my entire life it was fine but boring. I’d argue the boring aspect either results in kids trying harder at school or getting into trouble.

I had no problems getting a high paying engineering job in SV and eventually buying a home in the Peninsula. I’d argue some kids in boring rural areas have more motivation to learn than ones who grow up with everything they need.
Trains are already crazy efficent both fuel and operational people wise - in fact this negates one of railroading great efficencies, slack (that 2 mile freight train already starts one car at a time). Also subtracting, cars are going to need to bunch up anyway at passing sidings to let cars go by opposite direction. Besides, the real cost is railroading is MOE and MOW (including land taxes here) and this solves neither of those issues. Could be interesting for locals and LCL traffic but those haven't been big parts of railroading in decades.

>And what happens when the US phases out subsidies and other countries don’t?

Then American consumers basically get fed at the expense of the rest of the world. Not ideal for the world, but great for those getting the cheap food. Labor directed in agriculture instead get focused into other industries we have a competitive advantage in.
I don't remember a lot of impact in the top half of the continent, other than fear of invasion spurring the British colonies towards confederation.
Of course healthcare isn’t and can’t be free. Unless by free you mean free at the point of usage. I support government provided healthcare and government runs off of tax revenue. Denying a person cancer treatment for no other reason than because they can’t pay $x at the point of usage is an immoral system. An analogous situation occurs with federal courts. Those who can’t afford filing fees have those fees waived and those that can pay them do so. This is done because the court system recognizes that access to the court system based on the ability to pay at the point of usage is a bad system.
> some people will like you and most won't

No way dude. If most people dislike you there's something else wrong, probably the way you act.
Again NASA would disagree.

Money matters a lot. Should this mess endure, people will forever be saying a little bit of gas would have been worth it.

And we've people with six figure arguments as to why such a check makes sense.

The idea of minimal code, focused on speed coupled with financials leads me FAR away from all this.

Above my pay grade. Would be good to look at the countries that have a lower death rate per 100k and see what they are doing.

Most likely we need to reform the insurance industry, but systemic changes are definitely needed.
> And the Cherokee, Choctaw, Seminole, Catawba, and Creek tribes sided with the Confederacy against the United States.

I knew they were opposing the United States (at the time, an aggressively-expansionist neighbour with an order of magnitude more arms manufacturing), but were they all definitely allied with the Confederacy? Your enemies aren't necessarily friends with each other.

(Also, keep in mind: Cherokee, Choctaw, Seminole, Catawba and Creek weren't countries. I vaguely remember that internal Cherokee politics was complicated, and that the US acted as though certain people were representatives when they weren't.)
This blurb uses the sub-title of the original:

What Could Change Your Mind?

Ian M. Church on intellectual humility and the "loyalty" of Trump's supporters.

It's also from 2016. It also disembowels any reason for supporting Trump at all, and it knocks down anti-vax arguments. Unfortunately, it follows the "Trump supporters are economically distressed and left behind" trope that was common in 2016-17, but has since been revealed as nonsense.
I can try to produce both an objective and subjective justification, without leaning too heavily into camera hipsterism :-)

In terms of objective qualities: digital sensors still haven’t fully caught up to film emulsions in terms of dynamic range. Digital sensors also tend to take “antiseptic” pictures, whereas half of the work of film was originally in developing emulsions that perform well at specific tasks and intentionally capture colors differently. Fuji in particular has done an incredible job replicating those emulsions in their digital cameras, but it’s not quite the same.

On the more subjective side: I have more fun when I use my film cameras than I do when I use a modern mirrorless or DSLR. I don’t know if everybody enjoys it in the same way, but I like having to do the reciprocity triangle in my head, having to know the specific qualities of the film I’m using, etc. Those elements are a big part of what makes it a tinkering hobby for me, rather than just something I flush money into so that I can perform it with the greatest tékhnē.

(All of this said, I take a mirrorless Fuji with me when I’m traveling. Digital is the best of both worlds for many, many occasions.)

Packetizing the Power Grid
But you see, throughout this entire pandemic I’ve mostly ignored the government and instead listened to epidemiologists, kept my eye on ICU rates, and governed myself accordingly. And by doing so I’ve been out to dine, gathered in friends’ homes, visited my parents, go shopping, and generally lived my life unimpeded.

Oh, and I’ve also avoided supporting the turds who organized this latest rally and grift: https://www.antihate.ca/the_freedom_convoy_is_nothing_but_a_....

I can be proud of everything I’ve done during the pandemic.

Can’t say the same for the people who were out there pissing on a soldier’s grave, waving the swastika, fighting hotel and restaurant staff, blocking emergency response vehicles, stealing food from the homeless, and keeping their fellow citizens awake all night with their horn-blowing.
The people that are most concerned about insurance before quitting are generally the ones that have expensive, known health issues.

Which self insured employers pay for directly.

So the barriers to switching aren't necessarily good for the employer either, because the more reliant someone is on their health insurance, the more they cost the company, and the less likely they are to ever leave.
is there a trick? when I first started riding I got a bunch of patch kits. I'm doing this in the shop so I have plenty of time to clean the area, rough it up. clamps to make sure the patch is firmly set, etc. after about..10 tries? I just gave up. I am religiously for wringing the last bit of functionality out of something before burying it...but it just wasn't worth it.

>> There's really little else to say to folks that don't respect others' right to speech they don't like or agree with.

Which has nothing to do with this case. It’s some people simply saying they won’t work with a company while it supports something they find unethical. Taking away somebody’s opportunity to use a private platform is not even close to taking away their right to free speech.

The GDPR does not require consent for everything. It allows processing data that’s required to provide the desired functionality and payment processors would be covered (IANAL, to take with a grain of salt) You’d still need to mention that in the pages privacy policy, but other than that you should be fine, as long as you have the proper paperwork in place (DPA,…) and the payment processor is themselves GDPR compliant.
We're obviously talking about a lot of diverse comments but...

Just because some people are saying it infringes on free speech (it could), or that it's censorship (which it's a call for), doesn't mean it shouldn't be allowed.

From where I'm standing, I'll say again, hardly anyone says Young shouldn't be able to do it. Even if it is a call for censorship.
