What are you talking about? This isn't about logic at all, if it were Putin wouldn't be putting troops in Ukraine. This is about saving face and not looking weak because one of his biggest fears (rightfully so) is ending up like Gaddafi.

There's literally nothing here for Russia to win, the west is rapidly moving away from fossil fuels and this will accelerate that. China may scoop up excess gas but it will be significantly less profitable for Russia.

Here's what Russia will be dealing with:

* Russians own significant assets in the west. These assets are vulnerable to seizure. These assets are held by the ultra wealthy Russians that keep Putin in power.

* The war is already unpopular in Russia. It's one thing to fight a war against a foreign enemy and another to fight a war against people who share common values and culture. 20k Russians showing up home in body bags will not help.

* Ukraine is in a significantly better place to defend itself.

There is no win here for Putin, only suffering the Russian people. At some point, a Russian version of the Arab spring is a possible outcome.

Welcome to the club! Reminds me a lot of the first ~1,5 years hacking on my then bootstrapped monitoring product.
I think this X-factor, happiness co-efficient or what not...that we see top athletes (who had a natural talent just like other athletes) talk about, which gives them that small edge that lets them be the absolute best instead of just, pretty good at a sport. This kind of makes me think of luck as a quality. I wonder if Big HR FANG companies are "watching" their employees trying to find this X-Factor in a quantitative way.

Would be cool trying to think of "work projects" or experiments to find those with X-Factors.
This is correct in regard of electricity, yes.
* ... they start regulating them like any other asset.*

Government should start by auditing "stable coins".

What do you think would happen to the crypto market if they did this?
People died doing the one thing what Wim constantly says NOT to do: practicing near a water that you can drown in.

This isn't fault of Wim Hof method. He warns about the risk of fainting (which isn't a problem on its own) near a body of water (where fainting becomes a problem) all the time.
The thing is: I don't have a problem with my current layout (and, as I said, adding sticky shift is one more thing to configure on new machines or after a OS reinstall). Also, I've been using that key for its original purpose for some 25 years. I don't see myself learning that again too easily. But I might try to see if it sticks (pun not intended).

What surprises me are people who consider a certain key "useless" simply because they don't use it, so it should be removed/reassigned. And there's plenty of them in this thread who think that I'm doing it wrong by using the key for the exact job it was meant for.
Disagree. Objectively speaking this is not how it works and never has worked in history. The winner takes it all, that's how it worked across the globe in all other territories across the world.

EDIT: Also this argument if completely flawed because Taiwan has no leg to stand on. The only reason why it existed the way it has for so long is because China has actually been nice and not exercised its power. If China was to move troops into Taiwan next week there would be no actual opposition apart from fake outrage in the West, same as what happened with Hong Kong. HK was always part of China historically and the West initially agreed a deal with China to be allowed to have a base there and as time has moved on they thought they could infiltrate from within HK to make the independent and make it a US proxy state, but China, just like Russia now probably, has remained firm to the original roots of HK and now re-exercised their right claim over it and as we have seen the West has done nothing abou tit because they know they 1. cannot and 2. have no real right.
Measuring Code Complexity by Its Shape and Distribution
I mean don't we all have enough data on this? When I lived in apartments, the neighbor's babies crying through the walls definitely kept me up. People making babies make it hard to sleep. Barking dogs definitely make it hard to sleep. People talking loud next door make it hard to sleep. Just last night the high winds kept waking me up.

No one makes or would want a device that mimics the noises we're trying to drown out to sleep.
I reacted to this "The colonizers of the US were largely immigrants from Europe, who were fleeing war, oppression, famine or other calamity. There has never been any comparable immigration from the US to Europe (or indeed to anywhere). To me this indicates very strongly which region has been stable or not."

In terms of wars and moving away, US had a lot of action going on. US history is actually interesting.

* 1695 - 1865 is period of slavery and thus massive forced movement of huge amounts of people. Especially by the last decades, there was a lot of movement of slaves within united states. By a lot, I mean really huge amounts due to business moving.

* The whole native-american population was displaced or killed from majority of the continent in that span. Those areas did not magically appeared out of nowhere empty.

* The war between north and south was actually major conflict. The leadup to it was bloody. The aftermath of it completely transformed economy and culture in the South.

* South consequently went through short but real period of democratization and then closing up the politics to groups.

* Approximately six million Black people moved from the American South to Northern by the beginning of 20 century.

And before you say they did not produced nails, neither did peasants in Soviet Union all that much. That region was hugely rural, hugely behind the times in terms of industry or literacy.
The fact that nail and nail are the same word confused me for a lot of time while staring at this

Now? What about Kosovo* and to lesser degree other conflicts in ex-Yugoslavia? Germany even had an active role in that.

There's plenty of original and not-bland AAA games releasing regularly. Teams take risks, sometimes they work out and sometimes they don't.

> Like they owe it to their 100 million dollar investors not to rock the boat too hard.

This is just shitposting, frankly, and is the sort of comment I'd expect ot see on reddit, not here. Cyberpunk is many things, but unoriginal and bland is not it. It definitely _tries_, and there's not really anything else like it (Deus ex is maybe the closest thing). That doesn't mean it's fun, and that doesn't mean that all AAA games are unoriginal bland and unfun either.

I've seen this but never heard of anyone using it. Do you have any notable examples of serious production apps shipped with this?

Deep Dive into a Post-Quantum Key Encapsulation Algorithm
Uh, it’s a 30 year contract and China is also investing in Russian lng related companies:

https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/a-property-sells-10-....

From another source: https://lngprime.com/asia/chinas-zhejiang-energy-to-buy-stak...

> Furthermore, A-Property said that the project involves building a 1358 kilometers long pipeline that would connect Yatek’s fields in Yakutia to the 18 mtpa LNG plant near Ayan on the Sea of Okhotsk.

From there, it seems to be pretty close to China.

I said this in another thread yesterday:

I very much think that this contract is what gave Russia the upper hand. When the Western Europe was the majority market gor Russian gas, things were status quo. Once China starts buying more and more gas from Russia, Russia doesn’t have to please Europe anymore and Europe can impose any sanctions it wants.

> I’m convinced that you should put statisticians in charge if your goal is to win a game.

Not just you - this is the concept of a casino, bookmakers, etc. You can make consistent profit by having good stat/prob models of games that people play for money but are irrational about.

More generally having accurate models gives you an advantage in almost any important situation.
I thought you were referring to https://insideclojure.org/2018/05/04/add-lib/ which is an experimental feature of tools.deps.alpha. But sure, there could be an (add-lib ...) function in this environment which loads some external code.
Not op, but. SK demographics are only now starting to stagnate and are not decreasing. Japan has had stableish/declining population for a while. Different situations.

China is not really comparable since there is still a substantial reserve army of rural inhabitants that can be drawn into industry (900 mil urban/500 mil rural). Until the rural pop is drained you'll continue to see strong growth in china.
And you're talking about personal responsibility and I was talking about group dynamics.

Yes, it sucks for individuals.

But as long as you have entire swathes of people discriminated against, personal responsibility is not enough. You need general principles, laws, policies.

And yes, laws and policies can be blunt instruments and some people get hurt. Yet we still use them because on aggregate they help us.

And no, I don't believe that people will be less motivated to take care of their kids even if they're at a disadvantage. If anything, I'd just make these shadowy ideas in the article actual written policies. "Yes, we only accept new students in proportion to population quotas". People will adapt.
One could criticize of the very notion of progress. It hinges on a tacit assumption there is some destination toward which all civilization will inevitably converge. It's really difficult to motivate why that would be.
Give management a button for "increase engagement" and they will push that button eventually, no matter the long-term implications.
I don't think it is just you and today. I remember when I was younger (college and before) I was happy because I was looking forward to something and envisioned a positive future (e.g. graduation, first job, high salary etc.). Kind of hard to do the same thing these days, especially now that I am an adult.
The world has become nothing but an endless grind for greed and corruption.

Every day I ask myself what is the point of all this anyways?
A few years ago I would have agreed that the native subtleties must be a top priority for user experience, but these days I don't think it matters that much anymore.

Flutter's UI can't match native components exactly, but they do a very good job, and I don't think the vast majority of users would be able to notice the difference or cares that much.

The reality is, the native UI homogeneity is long dead anyway. Every app, website, brings it's own set of UI components and styling. It's all inconsistent and people are used to it.

It really does not matter whether your modal dialog is native or not, as long as it follows basic abstract UX conventions of looks and behavior.
Germans can barely get their heads around nuclear energy. Pumping fluids that have been anywhere near a reactor into homes will be untenable.
And for a home heater, 80% of the heat from the gas you burn goes up the chimney.

Larger energy capture devices can be more efficient. One highly-efficient fuel burning plant providing power to a hundred thousand electric resistive heaters can produce more useful heat per unit fuel than a hundred thousand small-scale self-maintained home furnaces.
Walker has addressed some of that here: https://sleepdiplomat.wordpress.com/2019/12/19/why-we-sleep-...

It's a bit unclear what details you get as an application developer when using LoginWithHN. Is it just to verify that a user is also a user of HN? Or do I get the news.ycombinator.com token so I can build HN clients that are able to post comments as the user?
> Expectations have changed, technology has changed

This I agree, nowadays people start with a lot already done, no need to write a custom audio codec, or image compression trick or whatever, not only there is plenty of code ready for doing so, but there are plenty of computational resources to use on runtime.

Back then you would see advances first in the games and later on being documented, now they are released as papers, you hope that it will be implemented on some engine somewhere, and games using these techniques will be at least 5 years away from the paper release.
Yes, exactly. San Francisco has a higher population density than most larger European cities (London, Madrid, or just Valencia) but the "outskirt parts" of the city seem more evenly spread out, whereas its European counterparts tend to maintain the more agglomerated village-style development throughout their outskirts. This style of undeveloped areas interspersed with denser neighborhoods, found in central areas in SF and larger European cities (but not as much in non-central areas of SF) tends to be far more effective for other urban factors such as public transport.
Yup. I see your point and totally agree.

About the demographics I'd love to see some statistics about different professions and their skiing vs snowboarding preference. Might have nice sociological/psychological points of interest there.
You can also click on the timestamp of the HN comment (e.g. ‘1 hour ago’) and then click ‘favorite’. That will save the comment (publicly) to your profile.

Looking at your profile it doesn’t look like you have any favorites saved yet, so maybe you’re not familiar with that feature?
I assume you’re interpreting the comment as “invasion” of Japan or the Philippines. Which I agree is unlikely

What is more likely is China’s Sphere of Influence extending well beyond Taiwan. No invasion needed or even the installation of a friendly government - just a government that won’t pushback.
So what you're saying is I could use this to parse HTML?
You need to have your shit together before birth.

Certainly I don’t mean to suggest child abuse is fine when they are little. But you can’t be a perfect parent from day zero; there’s a lot of learning by doing, you can’t know how your life priorities will change, and kids don’t need material wealth when they are small outside healthcare, healthy food, etc.

In other words, you don’t need to have a successful career, perfect house, etc as a prerequisite to kids. They don’t even go to public school until they are five, yet many aspiring parents want to get into the right school district before having a kid.
I think it was right about when SSDs were coming out. I even kind of proved it.

I built this machine with latest greatest hardware in late 2010.

AMD Phenom II X6 1090T
16gb ram
128gb SSD
crossfire amd HD 5900 gpus

various upgrades over the years but 12 years later, that was still more or less within the specs of today. I got my moneys worth for sure.
Yes, cyclomatic complexity might be a popular metric but it was never a good one. At least not for its original purpose.
That said, I occasionally find cyclomatic complexity useful: cyclomatic complexity is a pretty good estimate on the number of unit tests a piece of code needs.

I agree more how would be a treat.
I assume Kozhevnikov’s agreement to keep the how confidential was an impediment.

But a couple things I noted:

* G-tummo meditation, she went on, is not a state of relaxation but arousal. She thinks it may increase blood flow to the brain. G-tummo is difficult, requiring years of dedication to master.

* Try “visualizing your fingers in hot water, or yourself in a hot environment,”

Regardless of where you land on the racism/reverse racism/affirmative action/culture discussion, it's a sad day for science, academia and truth when simply presenting evidence (rather good evidence in this case, it seems) is frowned upon because it doesn't fit the current societal mood.
Okay, I thought it was something along the lines of argumenting against a proposal that is better but not perfect because "what about this edge case". Had a colleague who was a master at this craft and managed to get many good ideas shot down this way.
Aren't result builders just function calls with implicit do-notation?

I kinda agree that SwiftUI runtime uses a lot of opaque magic and documentation is still under-par. However, I am very glad Apple went the React way – I tried UIKit after I was writing React for few years and it felt very dated and laborious. Yeah, React isn't FRP, but declarative UI with code FTW.
A Pixel phone.

Honestly Pixel should be the only android you consider as its the only phone that doesn't come loaded with trash spyware (outside of niche phones like Fairphone)
Certainly, some would like to define it that way. But one doesn’t have to go along with it. The rejected young man isn’t the powerful party in this anecdote. So, you’d have to put this “whites on top” canonical race hierarchy over the actual situation presented, as if whites are supreme categorically. One can also object to Americans’ canonical race hierarchy itself. No, one does not have to go along with this.

Any disputed island (in the eyes of China) will be up for grabs. It won't stop at Taiwan. It'll be any non-nuclear power they can push around. That 9-dash line will become a reality.

Country formation is a complex topic, and there is certainly no "objectively speaking right thing" like you said. Rebels/insurgent forces start to become legitimate leaders of their land and country at some point, though every one has different definition of where that point is that suits their liking.

That seems like a huge exaggeration of the severity of those issues:

> Text Fields are almost unusable for iOS users that don't have predictive keyboard enabled.

"Almost unusable" sounds like you can't type, but really it is just missing the autocorrect popups. And if you check the comments, somebody provides an implementation that does show them.

> Emoji rendering is broken on iOS.

This makes it sound like it doesn't show emojis, but really they're just slightly too small.
So I assume you are now saving and investing as aggressively as you can to reenter that situation?
My thought was Russia would retaliate by just turning off the gas supply period. Then I was wondering who could hold out longer, Russia or Europe?

I didn’t know until this article and comments that Nordstream 2 was already effectively on pause.

Russia is already dependant on China. Without China they would not be able to weather economic sanctions and a China-Russia (plus minor countries like Belarus) is forming a new anti-Nato block.

The logical next move if the pipeline to Europe falls through is for those speedy Chinese builders to build a pipeline. Russia isn't going to defect and even if they do it wouldn't cripple China. It's in China's interest to keep the current political climate in Russia, since if Putin falls to a pro-democratic group like Ukraine did, Russia will snap hard to Nato. And to keep that political climate Russia has to move hydrocarbons.

Personally, I don't really see a way out of this. China is going to be more powerful than Nato. There is no reasonable way out of it. The sooner we recognize this, the faster we'll isolate our economies from Russian and Chinese influence.

This is partially our fault for not doing a Marshal Plan Part Duex in Russia / Ukraine after the iron curtain fell, but really the main problem is that we extended a hand out in good faith to China and it didn't break the way we wanted it to. Rather than join the club and be the most influential member they've decided to real politik and be the next hegemon. It didn't have to be this way, even with the Chinese Communist Party in charge. Vietnam is perfectly capable of joining the club (TPP) without a functioning democracy.

You can say what is suggested is similar to tripcodes used in some imageboards. If you put `User##password` (where `User` is optional) in the name field when you post something your name will be displayed (differs in each site) like `User!!rEkSWzi2+mz`. So your "account" is the password, no username is needed, and you can have a nickname if you want.
