I was in the same boat. Never experienced a death in my family until my Grandmother died in '18, then my Brother dies a few months later, then my Grandfather in '19 and then an Aunt in 2019 and a uncle in 2020. Needless to say its been very rough and made me realize life is incredibly fragile and enjoy every minute of your time on this planet.
No it's not. Heroin has only modest blood-brain penetration. Fentanyl has nearly 100% penetration. This difference is what makes fentanyl so much stronger than heroin and so much more dangerous. Biochemically it's a different thing - not "just another opiate".

"Her date doesn't look half bad himself. The other girl is a Brandy. Her date is a Clint. Brandy and Clint are both popular, off-the-shelf models. When white trash high school girls are going on a date in the Metaverse, they invariably run down to the computer-games section of the local Wal-Mart and buy a copy of Brandy. The user can select three breast sizes: improbable, impossible, and ludicrous. Brandy has a limited repertoire of facial expressions: cute and pouty; cute and sultry; perky and interested; smiling and receptive; cute and spacy. Her eyelashes are half an inch long, and the software is so cheap that they are rendered as solid ebony chips. When a Brandy flutters her eyelashes, you can almost feel the breeze. Clint is just the male counterpart of Brandy. He is craggy and handsome and has an extremely limited range of facial expressions." --Neal Stephenson, Snow Crash (whence the term "metaverse").
Unfortunately, I have been involved with many, many people who have died, for my entire life.

It hasn't been as bad as some folks have had it, but, pretty much every year, since I've been eighteen, at least a couple of people in my close circle have passed away, for numerous reasons. In the early 1990s, it was bad. I won't get into why; and it's bad, again, now, for different reasons.

It's really rough, to be in his position. Even with all the wealth and resources at his disposal, he could not do much. I know others, who have had to deal with the same kind of thing.

When parents lose children; even when the children are dealing with long-term illness, it is devastating.

Ask a Covidian...

You are 100% correct of course, and pretty much EVERYONE from the US government to MSM to Covidian fanatics were wrong because they were stupid or liars or power hungry or all three.

I mean sure, TJ Rodgers was a controversial guy but he hasn't been involved since the Infineon acquisition.
There still seem to be some deep-seated resentments from some Greeks towards Turks due to the Greek genocide and exodus a hundred years ago. Turks on the other hand have never heard about that (it's illegal to teach in Turkey), so they are pretty chill. There is some bitterness due to the more recent (and still unresolved) conflict regarding Cyprus.
It's easy to forget, but the last 2 elections were based on getting Brexit done. The first one did not go terribly well for Theresa May, the second went well for Boris. The difference was the leader of the party - the policies were not radically different to a layman. It's hard to see it as more than a popularity contest.
Somehow this Russian propaganda has been parroted by every Western expert to the left of Hitler for the last couple of decades. Putin is clearly playing the long game.
There are multiple distinct ethnic / cultural / religious groups in Bosnia. Serbians (from Serbia or Kosovo) tend to get along well with Bosnian Serbs, but there can be conflicts on occasion with Bosnian Croats and Bosniaks (Muslims).

As a practical matter within US companies it's not feasible to assign team members based on avoiding those potential conflicts. Nor can we afford to hire independent observers. I can't imagine trying to justify that additional headcount request to Finance and HR, they would laugh me out of the room! Instead employees are expected to act professionally regardless of their personal feelings and if they can't do so then manage them out.
Birth and death certificates aren't even close to a fundamental driving force here. As a society we think differently about it, mostly because we don't expect children to die any more since infant/child mortality has drastically reduced.

I saw the same at a prominent financial services firm. 50 - 60 Indians in the same dept from the same region. A big number.

I even asked a senior manager if I needed to be Indian to excel at the company. He said the very fact I asked that question is a problem, whether or not it is true.
Yes, exactly my feeling as well.

> Any victory Putin has will be entirely phyrric

His victory is pyrric from a western, democratic point of view. From his point of view, it's a win - Russia is an authoritarian regime; the population (up to an extent) doesn't matter. People actually started to be jailed due to protesting already.

I don't think it's realistic that an insurrection will happen, but it'd be interesting to read opinions from Russian people.
My Muslim grandfather grew up in what is now Indian state of Karnataka (Gulbarga). When he would touch metal utensils of neighboring high caste family, they would curse at him and wash them, so he would do it to wind them up every so often.

Although it's not always that straightfoward. In Gujarat, Muslims used to be able to "cancel" caste pollution - that is, if you touched a Dalit and then touched a Muslim you wouldn't have to purify yourself.
Ah yes that's true it is mutable

But even an immutable list cannot be made covariant. Or, say, funcs.
It's also hostile to users who browse with javascript disabled, as a privacy or security precaution, for example.
criminals hang together I guess. what's new
Interesting question. In other words, is the Indian caste system effectively simple racism that follows a person regardless of whether they were raised in that culture, or is there a more subtle cultural undertone.

An analogy might be black Brits getting discriminated by Jim Crow laws in the old American South. That was simple racism based on skin color and it didn't matter if you were American or not.
It's not so easily to transport gas from western russia to china though. Russia can't just build a pipeline overnight to china.
The reduced contrast is not great, but I find the more compact layout pleasing.

The old one is very busy with color, borders and backgrounds occupying that white space, this is more in line with what you expect a reference book should look like, and will not tire you out after looking at it for hours.
You threw a racism uno card by asserting that the Japanese guy was racist with zero proof. You’re stereotyping people as much as you accuse others of.
For a lot of companies, $1400 per developer isn't enough to worry about. That's probably a day or two of all-in developer time. Not worth it for something you are only paying for every year or two, especially if your developer prefers the 16" machine over the Air.
Feedback's tough. I sometimes sit on content committees for conferences. Sometimes for a given abstract my feedback would be along the lines of "Did you even try?" or "How many different events did you submit this generic abstract to?" But mostly it would be more along the lines of it's OK but there's a known person who is better plugged into this particular topic who also submitted and their abstract is sharper.

Conferences do often try to get new and more diverse speakers but you're still competing with people who do this sort of thing for a living. The bottom line is that a lot of feedback would be along the lines of "You were fine but someone else really grabbed us in one or more ways."

I interpreted that as $93B for everything including Gateway, Human Landing System and all the commercial science landers due to start launching this year.

Although yes, the vast majority of that is still SLS and Orion. From my count ~$44.5B has been spent on SLS and Orion already.
well professionally (and its likely a lot more than that), but in the hobby market there are a lot of low end devices with free or zero cost tools.

The iCE40 boards are sub $20 (iCESugar nano) and have an open source toolchains. And things like the ECP5(G) boards are large enough to host full RISC-V/etc environments for less than $50.

So, yah, FPGA's can get outrageously expensive, but there are a lot of low end devices with a lot of capabilities (those ECP5's have highspeed serdes, which can act as PCIe cards for example).
I'm not Russian, and have no sympathy for the oligarchy that oppresses them, but if I had domains on your service, I would have already moved them away. I will never pay you a dime, and I'll see to it that no company I launch or influence ever does either.

This article reminds me a lot of the situation I'm currently in, albeit at a much smaller scale. After studying game-design and game-development for five years I wanted to to go to my local university for a bachelor.

Denied

While looking for options I started worked for a friend of the family in his lawfirm to save up a bit of money. During that time I applied to the university of Cologne, hoping that I have better chances there.

Denied in the second round (still stings)

Now a year into working for the lawfirm I met by chance the CEO of a small startup on an IT job fair who wasnt even presenting there. He saw potential in me that at that time I didnt even saw in myself and offered me a job as a Junior Frontend Developer, where I work now for a bit more than 3 months. Its an absolute dream job, and if any of the previous rejections didnt happen I wouldnt be now in this amazing situation I am in now.

"One door closing opens another" is now one of my favourite sayings.
> OAuth2 was production ready when everybody realized having FAANG logins is insane

I would have to disagree with this statement for a number of reasons:

1) HN community sometimes could be a bubble, in a sense that many developers here share similar opinions etc but there is a big amount of people outside of the HN community who share different views about software development, how they spend their times (I know some soft engineers who spend 0 hours outside of work doing anything IT related, not saying it's bad or good, just different to many HN people)

2) An average customers isn't necessarily aware of account shutdows or any implications of having centralised systems that you talk about

3) I think there is not enough data to support your statement, tho would be good to see if you have any to share
Short term thinking at its worse. China isn't going to stop at its borders. Their tech companies not only answer to their government, they are just as greedy western big tech, if not more. Your info is going to be sold to the highest bidder, plus shared with the Chinese government.
Probably not?

I know plenty of tech companies that make sure female applicants get interviewed by at least one female engineer during the hiring process. They have a good faith belief this reduces discrimination rather than increasing it.

Of course, it could stray into discriminatory territory if you're doing something dumb - like sending all minority applicants to a hardass interviewer who rejects everyone; or giving certain employees a burdensome number of interviews on the basis of their race, at the cost of their other duties. But you should already be on top of issues like that anyway.
Huh? What comment are you referring to? I didn't call fentanyl and similar analogues "just another opiate". (Also, fentanyl is an opiod. It is not a natural opiate. And diacetylmorphine, thanks to its improved lipid solubility compared to morphine, has an approximately 70% brain absorption rate. That's not "modest".)

Your reply really confuses me.
Just be thankful you don't have to use Teams.
The author appears to have included the full working source code in the article, so getting it formalized into a git repository is a trivial (possibly even entertaining) exercise, left to the reader.

How generous of Pascal Thormeier to leave the window open for fun! :)
Change is always hard, but this design is way too narrow on desktop where I suspect most users are reading it. The main content is taking up perhaps 25% of available width of a fairly ordinary 27in monitor.

It looks like max-width of the main content is hardcoded to 1440px so everything (sidebars included) has to squeeze into that. As a result there are huge white bars of emptiness on either side, but a lot of vertical scrolling.

Otherwise though I am indifferent to the style changed. It's kinda lost its character and looks really bland but I can live with that.
> Is the claim on this that the Audi can't go 30% over, but the Toyota can? or the other way around.

Yes, but that is kind of an irrelevant claim.

There's wildly different engineering and service recommendation ethos between Europe and Japan and it shows.

He could have just as easily said Volvo and Nissan and been just as correct but that's not a batting practice pitch over home plate for HN's biases the way <luxury German brand> and <toyota/honda> is.
There a lots of these articles now on why it is really the west's fault for not giving Putin whatever he wanted. This is deeply disrespectful to the Ukrainian people fighting a defensive war against a brutal dictator that kills his own people without second thoughts.

When you see a bully walking around the classroom punching other kids we should not think wait we must look at both sides of the story. I am sure the bully needs and deserves help, but right now lets address the kids getting punched.

Neither NATO nor EU has tried to force countries to join, in fact they often reject applications. They exists because the US is willing to provide security guarantees to smaller countries without interfering in their domestic agenda.

For example Norway just joined the anti-nuclear weapon group as an observer. The US was not a fan at all, but did not try to block it.

Most of my professional experience (5+ years) is in web development, but I'm looking for GPGPU, ML, graphics and/or computer vision work. I work hard and get a lot done. Check out my side project: https://www.3d-beats.com
I bought an MBP with an M1 two weeks ago. Never owned a Macbook before, although I use a company MBP, which is older and Intel based.

Actually I wanted to compile an Android app on it, which uses some C code. On an MPB with an M1, Android Studio does not handle that natively and without hassle in Android Studio release, or beta - they seem to have some support in Android Studio Canary now, with a little futzing.

I'm not in a rush, and will probably wait until I can just compile the Android app from Android Studio release without any jury-rigging needed. So I'm not stuck really, I have the time to wait for it to all get into the NDK post-canary release and the Android Studio post-canary release and I will proceed from there.

Also, I have never used Fidelity's Active Trader Pro app, and wanted to check it out as my desktop is a System76 box running Ubuntu and ATP is not available for that. So I tried to install on the MBP with M1 and - no go. Not sure what is needed for this to go on.

I think I have Rosetta installed, but hasn't helped much.

I'm not really stuck on these things, they're just observations. It is as fast as everyone says. The local app store only 16G RAM MBP's in stock so I got one instead of waiting for a 32G RAM one. Android Studio still compiles apps pretty quick though.

It would be nice if all of these apps and operations worked smoothly and out of the box now, but it's not a huge deal. The purchase works for me for other things and neither of these things have high urgency presently.

Not even that. It is at best an uneducated and wildly optimistic opinion.
The plural of ancedote is not data.

My lived experience is the opposite of yours: All those nice tests that put me in the top 0.01% of IQ + problem solving ability and the drive that got me through 2 degrees and cross-continental moves with zero support completely deserted me when I had my first MS relapse. I couldn't will my body into staying awake, or not being in excruciating pain.

The idea that being intelligent means you can't or won't be slapped down by life is a coping mechanism.
It's just a fancy way of saying you can use generics for the "outer" type of a container. e.g. List<T> vs. U<T>. That's literally all there is to it.
> but do you really think they would organize and target air strikes with public Google Maps markers?

Troops probably not, but undercover saboteurs couldn't risk to be caught with encrypted devices, radios etc. A tablet with a browser would raise a lot less warnings.

Is there? While my experience comes from living in a cosmopolitan border town, it is hard to imagine anyone seriously lumping Asians in with Africans, short of the outright rascists raging against "immigrants"

Domestic payments in Russia are handled by SPFS without any issues, the problems are with cross-border payments and Apple/Google Pay tied to cards of the sanctioned banks.
Yes that is rational, but Putin is not acting rational. If the world backs him into a corner he might do something rash. He’s isolated, paranoid, and has a big red button in front of him.
Sure, but even shitty tar paper roofs last 20 years. Stone and metal roofs can last much longer.

Even Russia itself is "surrounded" only because they threaten the countries around them and NATO is a defensive force to protect those adjoining countries. The only reason not to join NATO is the possible and totally inappropriate Kremlin response.

Saying "look at the map, NATO surrounds Russia" is sort of akin to looking at a map of city lights on the earth and calling it a heat map of murders. Not the greatest analogy, but hopefully gets the point across.
They could just be spandrels. Lots of things in nature exist with no real purpose.
