Yeah, but every language has those peculiarities in spelling. AFAIK Serbian Cyrillic is the closest one to "spell how you hear it" because every letter corresponds to a single sound and there's little deviation from this.

With the Serbian Latin/Croatian alphabet it gets a little complicated because it uses digraphs such as lj(љ in Cyrillic), nj(њ)and dž(џ).

In forensics, this would only be done on an image, and not on the live file system. This both avoids triggers like you mention, and also claims that the forensic person has altered the evidence in some way.

It sounds like you have single-column indexes on every column and then would rely on an intersecting query plan (e.g. bitmap heap scan) if you query multiple columns.

This isn't just slightly slower, it depends a lot on your data how slow this is. It's potentially linear in the length of single-column matches. E.g. a query plan for (region='us' AND product='1234' AND year='2021') could scan the region index for all 'us' tuples, the product index for all '1234' tuples, and the year index for all '2021' tuples. The result might only be 0.0001% of rows, but this might have to scan more index entries than you have rows in the database. In some cases it's probably better to use one index and apply the remaining column filters as you fetch rows from the heap.

If you don't care about performance or only have a few MB of data then maybe you will get away with it, but I've never worked on a project where database performance wasn't an issue.

Point-to-point transport layer encryption is not even worth mentioning anymore these days, in my opinion. SMTP uses TLS, yet I would not call email an encrypted messaging service.
Can someone explain this to me?

He states that Optimism doesn’t have a native gas token and native currency, and eth balances are implemented using ERC20 tokens with OVM instead of the native balance mechanism

However the exploit is using selfdestruct to transfer and create the remaining balance to the target address, effectively creating new tokens out of thin air.

> This means that, when a contract self-destructs, its balance is BOTH given to the beneficiary AND ALSO KEPT. If the contract had 10 ETH, 10 ETH are CREATED from thin bits and handed to the beneficiary.

But I thought from this explanation that contracts don’t have a balance because ETH is stored in an ERC20 contract, and is set to 0. How can the contract have balance (10 ETH) to transfer on selfdestruct when optimism doesn’t have a native balance?
This pretty much happened at one of my jobs. Principal engineer was airdropped into team and decided everybody would develop all new microservices with his new pet framework (literally, it was named after his dog) with Spring style DI cruft that was in many ways more difficult to work with than Spring. He enjoyed rulership of the team for a while before leaving for greener pa$ture$, and on his last day of work, he changed the README on the open source repository of the framework to point to his own, personal, repo as the locus for all future development. A move widely frowned on, especially by management and legal, which soured his reputation, and higher-up architects had different ideas anyway, so the pet framework was deprecated for future development.

Because a private company can do something does not mean it should be allowed to do it, does it?

Yeah pretty much this.

If a paradigm (whether functional, OOP, or whatever label makes you feel better) isn't working for you when it has worked for many others, maybe it's not because the paradigm sucks... it's because you might just suck at the paradigm?

Obviously there are cases where things were pigeonholed into the wrong paradigm for the job. Then it's a case of the person choosing the paradigm sucking at choosing the paradigm. Whatever happened to personal responsibility?

Changes to the YC Application?
I just went in to edit my application and, unless there was a glitch on my end, it appears as though a couple questions have been deleted.

My application is not showing the "How will you get users? If your idea is the type that faces a chicken-and-egg problem in the sense that it won't be attractive to users till it has a lot of users (e.g. a marketplace, a dating site, an ad network), how will you overcome that?" or the "Who are your competitors, and who might become competitors? Who do you fear most?" questions.

I've been watching https://www.youtube.com/c/PoliceActivity/videos (publisher of police body-cam deadly-force-used incident videos) for a long time, and from that sampling it seems that the number of police shootings (a significant proportion of which result in a non-police fatality) that can be reasonably labeled "suicide by cop" (or similar mental health related) is disturbingly high. A recurring scenario: 911 call of suspect brandishing a knife -> suspect charges responding police officers while brandishing the knife in an attacking manner and yelling "shoot me". Police policy and training clearly allows (supports) officers in this situation to shoot their attacker, and also clearly enables them to continue firing until there is no doubt that said attacker is absolutely no threat to anyone in the vicinity.

Hinkley Point C is looking to be an at least £50 billion cool transfer from taxes to private corporations. Renewables have also gotten way cheaper today compared to 2017.

> EDF has negotiated a guaranteed fixed price – a "strike price" – for electricity from Hinkley Point C of £92.50/MWh (in 2012 prices),[20][77] which will be adjusted (linked to inflation – £106/MWh by 2021[71]) during the construction period and over the subsequent 35 years tariff period. The base strike price could fall to £89.50/MWh if a new plant at Sizewell is also approved.[20][77] High consumer prices for energy will hit the poorest consumers hardest according to the Public Accounts Committee.[81]

> In July 2016, the National Audit Office estimated that due to falling energy costs, the additional cost to consumers of 'future top-up payments under the proposed HPC CfD had increased from £6.1 billion in October 2013, when the strike price was agreed, to £29.7 billion'.[82][83] In July 2017, this estimate rose to £50 billion, or 'more than eight times the 2013 estimate'.[9]
The low interest rate is beneficial to Goldman Sachs, but the high inflation rate is not. They are an investment bank that holds assets, and those assets are devalued by inflation. The the interest rate and inflation may have some correlation, but the last 15+ years have shown the correlation isn’t all that strong.

I used it for a while, but found it to be unreliable. Sometimes my Raspberry Pi’s became unavailable through the nebula network. I had to ssh into the Raspberry from home network and restart the nebula service. This happened once a week or so on Zero W, so I tried Tailscale. It was much easier to set up than Nebula and works better for me so far (3 months).

YMMV, of course.

Yeah, OK. As long as you’re aware of the issue, then I have no problem with you drawing the line slightly differently. I was just worried that you weren’t aware of it, since in my opinion, HN has seemed to contain too much mainstream news, with every questioning immediately shot down with “it’s interesting!”, and then your comment seemed to imply that no restrictions whatsoever were to be applied. But if you’re aware that one actually has to make a judgement on it, then I have no real problem with it; good work overall.
Shower thought based on a few observations..:

1. if you breathe in a room with closed windows, the ambient co2 levels can quite easily exceed 1100ppm (that happened for me this morning ! I felt like shit til I saw my co2 meter reading and opened some windows!)

2. it will continue to increase until basically you hit some steady state involving the number of co2 molecules that swap places (ie 50/50 chance of increasing or decreasing ambient room co2 per breath)

3. co2 ppm level inside of your lungs is a lot higher than ambient air - one source says:

inspired air contains 0.03% CO2 but expired air contains 4% CO2

for 300 ppm air. But if you're breathing let's say 1000 ppm. The ratio out/in goes from 4/0.03 to 4/0.1; from 133x to 40x.

4. when you burn fat, more of it is the co2 you breathe out than the co2 you urinate

5. for the co2 gas in your blood to become co2 gas in your breath, it has to undergo gas exchange - see last diagram on https://courses.lumenlearning.com/boundless-biology/chapter/...

conclusion: maybe proper ventilation and fresh air actually makes it a lot easier for you to release co2 from burning fat, in addition to actually making you feel a lot better??

Should all GPS trackers be banned then? The problem with AirTags is they're accessible; these problems have always existed with any kind of GPS tracking.
That's the problem, you just repeating the Gospel without understanding the externalities involved in the regulations you advocates for.

Many times, you are not free to set the price of goods, especially in today socialist / regulated economy. Your costs go up, your margins profit go down. There is so much you can squeeze. Heck, DEF sounds nice to save the environment & all, but when your combine three a DEF code and pretty much blew your engine 400 miles from the nearest dealership right during harvest before a storm, goes into limp mode and prevent you from harvesting, you're literally fucked, your all farm might even go bankrupt. Don't even count on insurance to save your ass, because you already had to cut back to focus on other coverage to mitigate skyrocketing fertilizer costs, which doesn't matter anyway because the price you'll sell your production 6 month from now has been set a thousand mile away by a white collar asshole right after his daily jerk off and line of coke.

The paper indicates that at times and levels of.social organisation our lethal violence rate increases well above the phylogenically predicted 2% — see Fig. 3c the contemporary band and tribe median estimates of 5±1% which are probably considerably more accurate than inferring from prehistoric remains). Other work suggests during resource scarcity hunter gatherer lethal violence shoots way up as well. I'm actually not sure what my point was, other than I suppose early humans under the conditions of contact with Neanderthals probably were on par with the most violent of phylogenetically similar animals.

> Browser side Javascript is just a compiler target at this point

you're a decade late to this observation. CoffeeScript came out around 2009. The world has largely been transpiling to ES5 for at least eight years now.

The fact of the matter is, JavaScript post-ES6 is a solid language. Many of those people that were using ClojureScript/CoffeeScript/etc. have moved back to JS.

2007 JavaScript has almost nothing in common with 2022 JavaScript. I think this needs shouting from the moon, based on the comments I keep seeing on HN. We used to have to use Firebug. On IE we were totally blind. JavaScript was designed to crash silently while still allowing a web page to function. Today, JS is a critical part of most pages and has sophisticated tooling.

> There might still be valid reasons to use DOM + CSS like we have been for the last two decades.

If you care at all about accessibility and general browser standards, then you're stuck with the DOM. You have to reinvent the world each time you decide to make the canvas your entire UI. It's hard enough getting browser history and URLs working and creating the illusion of "pages" in a SPA. I can't imagine the pain in the ass this would be in a WASM blob.

> But it won't be the only choice for doing UIs.

It was never the only choice. Not even in 1996. Macromedia Flash, Java applets, etc. For niche applications, the canvas is great. But the majority of the world will continue using the DOM.

> Nuclear energy allows to reduce carbon emissions without sacrificing the economy.

Only over the course of many decades do they net reduce carbon emissions, at the cost of much higher carbon emissions during the construction phase. Right now we need to be implementing the fastest carbon reductions possible and this does the exact opposite; for the next fifteen years, these plants will be a massive carbon emissions increase, and then it will take many years of operation to "pay that back." By then it will be far too late.

Nuclear is one of the most expensive electricity generating technologies and it has only gotten more expensive, while solar, wind, and battery technologies are following expected plunging cost paths. Nuclear power plants are difficult to site geologically, difficult to site grid-wise (because the only way they are economical is through massive scale, and you can't just drop 5, 10, or more gigawatts onto the grid just anywhere), there is no need for base load which is the only thing nuke can provide (either in terms of capability, or economically), they don't like fussy climates/extreme weather (and if they use natural bodies of water, are vulnerable to invasive species, increasingly a problem around the world), they have very deep and exacting supply chains when countries have experienced significant supply chain problems for numerous different reasons, and you can't just snap your fingers and have qualified staff to run the plant. They require significant socio-political stability (functioning education, security, accountable political leadership_, and generate material that is extremely dangerous to life for generations, and have the potential to render entire geographical regions uninhabitable, again for generations.

Guess what has none of these problems? Solar. Wind. Hydro. Energy storage.

Nuclear power also doesn't solve the fundamental problems: the environmental impact of staggeringly large militaries, the amount of 'disposable' packaging used in almost everything, the cross-planet shipping of consumer goods most of which are, frankly, useless, heavy use of low occupancy vehicle travel, poor building efficiency, and proof-of-work cryptocurrency schemes.
"Hiding" state is necessary to endow it with well-defined invariants. This can be done in many FP languages, too. The semantics-side implications of "encapsulated" state w/ proper invariants have yet to be explored, though, and this is where newer PL formalisms like "homotopy types" might end up being quite helpful.
The guy was a director-level and had been a software engineer. I had just been fired/laid-off from my last job for not faking results, so I walked in and gave him an updated resume. He asked what happened and I said they pressed me to do some things with the data that I wasn’t comfortable with. He was like “been there.” And we moved on to the interview.

He asked me to talk about some projects I’ve worked on, he asked me to white-board a recursive factorial function, asked why I wanted to work there and why I wanted to work in defense. He gave me a quick tour and sold me on the benefits.
