Does the military consider criminal records even for support jobs? Theres a very broad variety of military jobs outside of being a solider, and the military offers structure, potential long term friendships with people from different backgrounds, a long term career based on good behavior, or a launching pad into a wide variety of other post-military jobs. I know it's not glamorous work but reliable and well respected throughout a broad part of American society.
If it were merely a simple 'hey kids, shar' - or a simple re-org of playtime to make sure kids get to play, it'd be fine.

The hypersensitive political contextualisation of this piece elicits the wrong outcomes and it's a totem for so much that is wrong today.

We're constantly over analysing and injecting bits of politics into the situation.

It's ridiculous.

Any sane, reasonable parent or teacher would have been able to solve the 'lego problem' without much fuss. Now we are arguing about it 15 years later because these shenanigans are perennial.
It's more like "we got the kids talking to each other about the problem until they decided that the solution was to play nice and share".
It won’t.
I lived there for years and never owned a car. Nor did I knew someone owning a car.
Obviously, car owner exits there. But a lot of car are transient from the outer core and suburbs.

And that was before uber/lyft. Relying on taxies, métro and bikeshare was already really common.

For me and my peers, car ride inside Paris was a bad idea and a chore.

This isn't true at all IME. Rust's paradigms are great a lot of the time, but the best C++ code does not necessarily look like Rust code in all situations.

There are a lot of patterns in modern C++ which the borrow checker rejects, for example the observer pattern and dependency injection (the pattern, not the frameworks), which are often the best tool for the situation.

Also, are you saying that the C++ Core Guidelines encourage us to make code more Rust-like? I would love to read up on that, if you have a source.
maybe not. but children do experience power imbalances in their own lives, particularly when dealing with their peers. and it's valuable to learn how to identify them, and how to build better systems that benefit everybody.

My issue is that my Microsoft account has a long, random password that is saved in my password vault. I never have to manually type this in because I have it linked to the Microsoft Authenticator app. But if I try to RDP to a computer with a Microsoft Account, I have to use the password to connect with the RDP app (unless I'm missing something?). My local user accounts on my home LAN have complex but easy to remember passwords so this is not usually an issue for me.
Ah yes, more taxes to pay for the taxes and over regulation on nuclear.

The fossil fuel companies that you think are out to get you are the only ones actually reducing emissions. Fracking gave access to so much natural gas it displaced coal, reducing emissions year over year.

Those energy companies also invest in wind farms, solar, everything. The gov gives out taxpayer money like hotcakes for "green" solutions, why not take advantage?

It doesn't integrate with password managers. You can use your YubiKey or similar that is enrolled with one device on another device (even with another protocol; USB on your computer, NFC on your phone).

As far as I can tell, it doesn't integrate with any sort of platform-level sync, either. My tablet doesn't get my phone's credentials; it has to be independently enrolled.
> why would the kids need to fight the teachers???

Because humans aren't perfect and even children need to be able to be able to assert and stand up for themselves.

Kid v adult would always lose, not sensible to do, yes. more of a chance if it's other kids.

Videogames are a great hobby, both online and off. As a child and teen I played Carmageddon, Duke 3D, Doom, and all manner of games that would've shocked my parents if they'd been paying closer attention. Younger friends were also playing Mortal Kombat and chatting on IRC.

Ultimately, as long as parents teach the kids to have healthy boundaries and critical thinking they'll be alright.

This teen selling her image directly to creeps strikes as borderline enablement of some mentally ill folks. Yet plenty of parents, mine included, would think nothing of having their kids model professionally.
I agree with your point about fragmentation. But isn't the "Year Of The Linux Desktop" just a joke at this point? Even more so now that desktop computing is becoming less and less important to most people.

Here is where it gets complicated, what you say is true for personal accounts and Hybrid Azure AD accounts, but it becomes super difficult with pure Azure AD accounts.
They had a bunch of whole-group conversations about what kinds of social behaviors everyone was observing and how it made different people feel, trying to help all of the kids understand the experience that the other kids had, talking about whether it seemed fair, and trying to decide as a group how best to respond.

Is that supposed to be bad? Like... you don’t want kids explicitly thinking and talking about what goes on in their class because identifying and understanding their feelings might cause them to become too empathetic or something?

If someone doesn’t have some such conversations (with parents, teachers, other mentors, etc.) as a kid, I posit that their education is deficient.
Every environment teaches people implicit lessons about the people that create, run, and equally importantly populate the system. From my own experience in public school most of the life lessons on offer were kinda bad because the environment was defective and abusive and the people fucked up.

The idea that its possible to get hundreds or thousands of people together and only teach facts is absolutely impossible.
There's no fragmentation, Nix apart from many other things is first of all a build system, and it can build Debian and/or RPM packages for you from the same sources it uses for NixOS [1]

Society says some stuff is bad that's not actually that bad.

Children and teenagers should not be able to do some things that adults are allowed to do.

These are not mutually exclusive.

An 18+ rating on Deus Ex is dumb for a mature 16 year old. Cannabis should be legal for adults.

I'm also glad that 12 year olds can't drive cars. Even if I wished I could drive at 12.

In other words, the rules can be set up unfairly AND still have room for just differentiation between children and adults.
https://twitter.com/gidmk/status/1422044335076306947 is probably the best source on this. GidMK has made something of a name for himself debunking this stuff, for better or for worse. If you want a source that's not associated with him but still critical, though not as detailed, you can check:

There's also Scott Alexander's detailed writeup, which I found good reading.

https://astralcodexten.substack.com/p/ivermectin-much-more-t...

It has been criticized for relying too heavily on GidMK, but in my opinion that's reasonable - he is in fact the expert who has studied this in detail.
That would not work. I do not want my teenage daughter to do part time work in a business that employs a sex offender. I do not want to work with an insurance agent who engaged in a financial fraud few years ago.
It's not the sharing and playing nice together that people have issue with. I think you're misunderstanding the criticism.

> You have to have a VM to run a _single_ service?

This is extremely common, in my experience. (Like it's a default tendency of nature.)

So, the VMs example was my previous employer. An yep, not really any multi-app VMs. There were some that did do a couple of things, but it wasn't great: it meant the deployment and dependencies of anything sharing a VM were all interdependent … and often under specified. Painful.

It's why Kubernetes exists, really. (Which is funny how much hate it & Docker seem to get on HN.) In my current employ, we do use k8s, and while much runs on it, and it's nice, we still haves some single-service VMs. I'd like to move them all into k8s if at all possible, but it is not always possible. Or it's not always that time gets dedicated to it.
that's so interesting. and an odd ruling?! I've boughten yahoo email ads. and tried gmails promoted version. it's a really interesting idea and seems better than outright spam

plus email inboxes have a huge amount of valuable data it could be one of the most relevant ad experiences if they truly leveraged that data. I buy ads and don't have a problem with a lot of the industry, i'm minority on that here. To me highly relevant ads are way better than mortgage loan quicken shit ads and virus crap I see otherwise.
HN is a place that attracts professionals of a particular enough field that it has avoided any internal siloing (i.e. Subreddits). Within Tech you can see nearly every political view represented - within SV in particular you'll find a very strong neo-Libretarian movement that's sprung up (in part) due to opposition against taxation - this group in particular is quite strongly anti-socialist.

It has (at least for the last five years while I've been here) always been this way - there is a very wide spectrum of humanity represented here.
This is not a counter-point, this is an ad hominem attack (despite its protestation to the contrary) that doesn’t address any of the serious problems that Meyerowitz-Katz found with those studies. Problems severe enough to force retractions from the relevant journals.

The credibility of Meyerowitz-Katz (and others like him) rests on the quality of his claims and analyses, not on whether he blocks people on Twitter.
There is a very distinct strain of American thought that says freedom means the biggest or richest get whatever they want. Which is ironic because that’s actually exactly what tyranny is. But in that framework, fairness is tyranny, because they see themselves as the strong and feel that it is their birthright to take what they want from those they see as weak.

I (UK) use 5G for all my internetting. Great speeds but iffy pings for gaming but this isn't a huge deal for me.

I only got it because I had to move house during covid and didn't want to risk having to wait weeks for a connection. However I didn't expect it to be as good as it is. So good that I never bothered with getting fibre. I can also just take my 5G router if I move house again, or use the 5G SIM in my dual SIM phone if I'm travelling.
I mean, yes. That’s why we send them to school right? So we don’t all have to do it ourselves.
You have to also incorporate the amazing luck of simply being a sentient life form on a planet that supports life.

This may be a good starting point:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthropic_principle

The Anthropic principle might not seem relevant to your exact question. It tries to answer the observations like, "how come the universe, such as its fundamental constants and whatnot, is so fine-tuned to bring about life; it seems incredibly improbable".

The problem is that the question is being asked by a sentient being in exactly that universe, who has no access to any other universe.

To apply it to your question, how do you know there don't exist a vast number of parallel universes in which you don't in fact exist? (Yet in which there are vast numbers of insects, nonetheless?)

Your observation is biased because you have only one sample of reality: that one in which you are.

It is logically impossible for a world to have the conditions to bring about a sentient being, and not have it look like (to that being) that it's all an amazingly lucky coincidence. A sentient being knows only one world, in which they are the only "I", and that necessarily seems improbable. It cannot be any other way.
That shows a lack of imagination on your part.

If you can afford to put PV + compute + internet in a random distant desert, you can afford to put pure PV in a specific and well chosen bit of desert that has people and houses and power lines and an existing internet connection in it. Which means you can sell the power it makes to those specific people right there.

It is, if anything, slightly easier to install PV on the rooftop of a complete stranger in a community in a desert than to install the same quantity of PV in the middle of nowhere the same distance from you.

Bonus points: installing PV on someone else’s roof and selling the energy it makes to the person under the roof is a tried and tested business model.

Second bonus: unlike crypto mining where your equipment becomes rapidly obsolete, PV keeps going with minimal degradation for decades.

Yes you are right. That’s what you learn at good universities: all the core data structures and algorithms you can use to build whatever you want. However you don’t need to go to University to learn this. There are great books on algorithms and data structures you can read to learn it as well. Playing around with different algorithms/data structures in your own non-work code is a fun way to learn.

This looks like just what I needed when I built my "admin ui" last year.

I think Google requires that you perform a web login every now and then to keep the account active. IIRC They don't count POP/IMAP auths as logins.
> There is no bridging that gap

There's plenty of ways in a real-world context. No, friendship alone will not do it of course, but having the right attitude will. She really needs to find you intuitively compelling in a general sense, and this will be practically interchangeable with physical attractiveness in her mind. One reason I know this is that it works just fine the other way around. Many guys have experienced finding a woman very 'plain' and uninteresting, but then radically changing their mind about her after she got the chance. That woman has just become "attractive" to them in a very real sense, even though nothing physical about her has changed.
Those are all highly subjective criteria. If you are going to define quality I would do so in a way that is universally clear and immediately repeatable.

Examples:

* Page load achieved in 0.5 seconds

* All variables are explicitly typed, if in a loosely typed language.

* Does not use conventions X, Y, Z

* Defect resolutions will not be accepted without corresponding test automation coverage

* All type interfaces will be explicitly documented in markdown language immediately prior to the interface definition.

Another way to think about this is if you cannot automate your quality definitions they aren't that important, because you will almost certainly not enforce them.

Science work by repeating experiments: I give you a protocol, you repeat it controlling for the same conditions, and validate my results.

As you say ignoring the inner workings would be fine if we had consistent, culture independent widely reproduced results. Thing is, we don’t.

For anything beyond a clinical trials on specific subjects that stay there for days/weeks to be fully studied, we might not even have valid control groups.

This is why I see comments on us having a vast body of studies to look to be more or less a “look a my library, there’s a lot of books” kind of statement that doesn’t really point at us having actual vast knowledge about the subject.

> It works as a tool for weight loss.

Does it ? to get back to the above point, do you see any consistently reproduced studies on large cohorts of people pointing at it working in the long term?

I must have hit a nerve with some teachers.

"One of these things is not like the others."

Intentionally so. To go into your example, age difference. Age matters in the real world, so pretending it can be nullified is a delusional "lesson".

Your parents have power over you. Your teachers do. Your manager at work. Older people have most wealth and political capital. Age matters whether you like it or not.

Same for other aspects, like luck. Other kids can be lucky to have rich parents, or to have been born with superior talent. They're going to do better compared to less fortunate ones.

Pretending all these factors do not exist or aggressively wiping them out in a playful scenario is not the lesson these kids need.

> In other words, the rules can be set up unfairly AND still have room for just differentiation between children and adults.

That's the point I wanted to make. The other that some of the rules just are unreasonable. And that the whole years of pseudo no responsibility (because that's never really true) and no freedom isn't as straightforwardly a fair deal as some comments here want it to be.

I am not sure this is the main put-off of nix.

Ideologically, I love nix. The syntax/language itself is a massive barrier IMO.

I use Nix for personal projects, but I prefer the experience of Devcontainers. They're easier to understand and debug (for me).

I'm watching eagerly the work being done by the ostree/rpm-ostree folks who are also trying to solve for a similar problem. Hoping to see something like "Nix but with YAML/JSON" come out of that.

For one thing, it makes it harder for me to understand when it will be necessary for new processors to use exotic materials. Since I've learned about the naming, and that processors have not actually reached the 5nm physical limit for silicon, it feels wrong to perpetuate it.
I’m not sure if that’s fair. This may be the only afterschool program around, and have a representative percentage of children from all ethnicities in the neighborhood (e.g. mostly white).

Another fun way to learn this is to make your own rogue like game. There is a great online community of people who help each other building rogue like games. You learn a lot of interesting ways to think about algorithms/data structures by doing that. And it is fun!

Do you have kids? Have you ever worked with kids? Helping kids to solve their conflicts is rarely “without fuss”. Even when there are only like 2–3 kids involved.

(For that matter, the same goes for many office conflicts among groups of adults.)
