Yes, at least where I am from martens are distinguished pretty clearly (at least as much as something like a wolverine). I guess I took the title to mean to weasel as a superclass, of which martens are a subtype (along with regular generic weasels). In some areas of the US people probably aren't familiar with martens, but would be familiar with weasels.

I'm confused by the noisemakers though?

> "windmills & solar panels, which requires many more times the ground surface and/or concrete"

There is no scenario where a comparable wind or solar farm requires more concrete than a nuclear plant. Not even close. A modern nuclear plant requires hundreds of thousands of cubic meters of concrete (ie: over a million tonnes), as well as hundreds of thousands of tonnes of steel.

Yes, a solar farm may require more land surface area, but it can be very quickly and easily deconstructed and removed when no longer required. Where as decommissioning a nuclear plant can cost tens of billions of Euros, and can take 60 years or more to complete.
> The issue isn't tooling, it's hardware resources and in some cases licencing.

Hardware resources are definitely an issue. That's why we generally recommend using remote development environments, which aren't as resource-constrained as the local dev machine. Making that comparably smooth to the local dev experience (e.g. for live reloading of services without rebuilding containers) needs some clever tooling (which is partly the reason we're building our product).

With production-like remote dev environments, you get the same capabilities as your CI environment, but can run test suites ad-hoc (and without having to spin them up and tearing them down for every test run).

There's no fundamental reason why CI environments should have capabilities that individual dev environments can't have—it's all a matter of automation in the end.

> The real challenges, like determining seed data etc is too project specific to be abstracted away.

Very much agree with that! The generic stuff (dependencies, parallel processing, waiting for things to spin up etc.) should be taken care of by the tooling, but without constraining the project-specific stuff (which is highly individual).
> operator overloading caused more problems than they solved

[citation needed]

Just because operator overloading can be abused doesn't mean that it isn't a massive boon in certain problem spaces (e.g. math libraries, SIMD libraries, etc.)
I was at a conference in Amsterdam once with a lot of talks from CEO's of fast growing companies. The day was very inspirational. The speakers were obviously very competent and the questions from the CEO's in the audience were interesting and they all received great answers.

To top it off the chairman of the day summarised the whole event in a speech that I still remember to this day. It was so charming, intelligent and erudite. I was floored.

Astounding. I can't think of a situation where this kind of intrusion is ethically acceptable. It were me, I'd question (with a lawyer) what their intent is. Why would a reputable employer stick their neck out like this? Sounds desperate, but maybe I've been reading too much fiction lately.

Document everything, try to keep the situation at work coasting along while you speak to a competent lawyer. I'm not Australian or anyone's lawyer, but my impression is that any sudden moves here can make the case against your employer much harder if you give them a reason to fire you. Next couple months are likely gonna be rough. Watch out for gaslighting attempts.

Be safe out there.

Addendum: I should clarify what I meant by "coasting along". I've heard that if you stop working come Monday that can also make the case harder for you if they fire you, since they can just say you "stopped showing up". Again, not legal advice, just advice I've heard, see what your lawyer thinks...
I wholly agree with this. The problem with OOP is that software are tools that are about processes and workflows. They do things. Processes and workflows are notoriously difficult to model using OOP methods (one reason why design patterns were invented) but actually quite easy to model using imperative or functional programming. I use this software to listen to songs in mp3 format. It plays songs through my computer's audio subsystem. Trying to model this using classes and objects that interact with each other - one for the player, one for songs, one for user input events like pressing forward and pause, one for the audio subsystem, one for the playlists, one for timing events, etc - will not make the software less complex.

My view is that software are like fractals. That is, self-similar and there is no difference between the micro and macro scales. What is right on the micro scale is right on the macro scale and vice versa. What is wrong on the macro scale is wrong on the micro scale and vice versa. Is it "wrong" to implement sorting algorithms using OOP? Yes. Then it is also "wrong" to implement music players using OOP.
This hits completely new levels of conjecture. This is fortune teller level science.
Similar for me. I turned 50 last week, and have a good remote dev job. ATM finishing off recording a song with the band I've been in since 1987. Also running FB ads for some solo piano stuff.

> So why do you need to have a vaccine pass to go places? You can still carry the virus and infect people.

I was able to hold a job at a big company with a large C++ codebase, in the millions of line of code, for 2 months. I was amazed how people there were able to deal with the amount of BS that this code was. I honestly don't have the motivation to thrive with such work, it's deeply non-sensical.

It really struck the confidence I had in C++. The code structure had so much technical debt and non-sense, that most developers never really dare say how awful it was. I was impressed by the blind humility of all of this, it seemed like a very elaborate game of hot-potato-passing and it-s-not-my-fault. Of course this software team was thriving, because it was in a monopolistic domain that would always rain money to write this software, even if it was bad. The manager was a highly motivated guy, very humble, but he also seemed a bit delusional, because fixing this software was going to take at least 5 or 10 more years.

OOP sounds like an utopian abstraction, some kind of "smartest guy in the room" stuff. It's like pure mathematics trying to do practical physics and engineering. It just doesn't work.

It's really time academics start to highlight the dangers of abstraction, and start writing some philosophical approach to software engineering and how to solve problem IN PRACTICE.

Personally, I mostly use namespaces to "encapsulate" data, behavior and code. I just write functions and use data oriented programming, even in python. It's funny how people finds this inadequate and bad practice. I never share code because I'm afraid to go in an argument because of it.

Code that use classes, inheritance, private/protected access, is just impossible to read and follow. It's just obfuscation to me. Unless you're writing a library that is used by many, meaning it requires well-structured inheritance, 99% of developers should not write OOP.

I will never forget this hackernews comment mocking people who were presenting their project, praising how complex it was. OOP seems like it's the main method used by "hostage takers" to make their code only readable to them.

In any kind of engineering, simplicity MUST PURSUED AT ALL COST. Only use complexity as a last resort, and FIRE developers who are unknowingly becoming hostage takers, and who keep innocently arguing that if they can understand their code, anyone can. Advocate of OOP will cost a lot of pain to future developers.
Unless I've misunderstood you, you said that, for example, `continue` cannot be implemented in terms of `map`, which simply isn't true. It's trivial.
It's the same in sports too. A blunder in Tennis means you missed the ball. A blunder in Football (Soccer) means you gave possession to the other team. A blunder in Jiujitsu means you get choked out. The joy of these games don't come from not making any blunders; it's making less and less blunders each and every game. If I wrestle with someone and beat them time and time again, there's little fun in that. If I wrestle with someone and lose time and time again, that feeling of elation when I train my hardest and eventually beat them is incomparable.

Chess is a delightful game for a number of reasons. It's wonderful for all the reasons puzzles are; the sense of achievement when you solve one. That "aha!" moment, where all that calculation clicks. It's wonderful because of the competition; it's one of the few that have a system where you can accurately track your progress over time outside of major competition, ie. online chess. You can see your rank climbing day-by-day. It's wonderful because you effectively get a coach for free; modern engines can give advice on moves, tell you where you went wrong, and what was a more optimal move. That's something you'd have to pay an arm and a leg for in any other sport or game. I started learning and playing chess at the beginning of quarantine, and it's one of the most fulfilling things I've done competitively since doing sports at university.

What solution is available for smartphone with Android? I would like to setup unused phone with Android system and SSH server (there are apps) to make it a standalone server connected with internet only via LTE/GSM (using simcard). I learnt that it is impossible to connect to a device using LTE connection. It's "public" IP is not so public, LTE providers have a lot of infrastructure configurations (NAT?) to not allow incoming connections initiated outside the phone. What is the best solution here? What are free for fair use (just ssh, maybe a httpd with lightweight script page), what are paid solutions. Thanks!
It's not necessary to trust the numbers. If they had large outbreaks, we would know. We are talking about a country of 1.4 billion people which has plenty of contact with the outside world, it's not North Korea.

It's very satisfying though.

The people getting stalked have a 100% risk. You don't care because for you it's all just statistics.

With statistical arguments, why do we spend so many resources on prevention of anything, e.g. cancer, when it only impacts a small number of people?

This kind of argument always comes down to choice. You care or you don't. Hard to argue. If you don't care about the fate of those "few", mostly women, well... there is no law of physics that I could throw at you, my negative judgement of your argument is not based on anything hard. Which is the case for a huge amount of such choices. You can have a society based on and steered by pure statistics and benefits, but what you will miss is that the very nature of such a society changes because you cannot put that into numbers.

The core of the argument is qualitative, which does not lend itself well to number-based reasoning.

> It's already known that vaccines increase rates of Myocarditis, especially amongst young males.

An Israeli study showed an incidence rate of 2.13 cases/100k people [1] - the common incidence rate for myocarditis in the US is ~22/100k [2].

COVID-19 itself has a 146/100k incidence of myocarditis, in contrast [3].

So please, stop spreading that "vaccines increase the rate of myocarditis", there is no evidence that supports this. And especially, get vaccinated because the complications from COVID-19 are way worse both in severity and rate.

Show HN: Lurnby, a tool for better learning, is now open source
I've been working on Lurnby for 2 years. It's kind of like a mix of pocket + kindle + anki.

It lets you
=> add add epubs, pdfs, and web articles to the app
=> highlight and add comments
=> tag and organize highlights
=> review them with a spaced repetition system

Today I made the decision to open source the project. I'm passionate about helping other people learn to learn better and hope that this will allow a lot more innovation in the tool and the space.

I'm very new to open source and development in general really, but looking forward to receiving the guidance of the community.
I won't dive into details, but please consider that maybe you're not recognizing them.

Your link doesn't say "give your employer all your medical records", it says "if you take medical leave you need a certificate from a doctor". There's no obligation to prove you have no medical problems at all, if the employer has a compelling interest (ex. if OP is an airline pilot and they can't have a seizure disorder) they should provide a specific list of disqualifying conditions.

There's no job where ADHD is going to be disqualifying for health and safety reasons.

That paper was interesting and the bit about clinical trials is important, but they don’t really offer much evidence that there are substantial concentrations of free floating spike proteins in the blood following vaccination, or that this would be the cause of the inflammatory and thrombotic reactions, vs just the more general immune response

As far as I can tell they’re just citing this one paper about the ACE2 degradation, and the study doesn’t directly address SARS-CoV-2 infection or vaccination at all.

You interpret this as an ultimatum, I see offering them a way out as being nice. At the same time one has to assert seeing through obvious b-s.

What is appropriate gets decided by lawmakers not judges.

Once judges willfully violate the code they have stepped outside their assigned role. This quickly became more of a political problem than a legal one, and what is right is ultimately for voters to decide.

Whether I am able to interpret the code and precedent correctly we will see. I did score close to the very top when taking the LSAT however.
We need more context to judge the situation, but, i don't see any reason why they should have access to your medical records. A letter from your doctor should be sufficient. Get a lawyer asap, don't sign anything, you might be in for a sweet settlement if they decide to fire you.

You are looking for excuses. Minorities rarely champion more censorship since they would never be able to implement it obviously.

> Although support for censorship is often associated with authoritarianism, it likely is motivated—at least in part—by desires to protect others from harm.

Funnily in English the word for that is called paternalism. I language curiosity in my opinion. But the motivation does not change the fact that it is authoritarian.

But the fact remains that you justify a bad opinion with past oppression. That certainly will help nobody and is probably not connected at all.
