That we currently don't universally oppose and sanction wars of conquest and aggression doesn't mean that we shouldn't. The invasion of Ukraine is an especially egregious example, and it is good that the world is unifying to disincentivize that sort of aggression.

Like, the US at least attempted to invent a casus belli for Iraq, and it was one that Saddam couldn't aggressively contest without revealing Iraq's weakness to Iran. Gaddafi was deposed because his administration killed protestors and provoked a civil war. Yemen is a proxy conflict against Iran and while our involvement is indefensible the goal of the aggressors isn't to annex the country.

Even Russia has benefited from this ambiguity: the international response to the Russian seizure of Crimea was very limited, and there was essentially no organized sanction over their campaign in Syria (which included at least one attack on US soldiers).

In this conflict, Putin's speech ahead of the invasion of Ukraine made it absolutely clear that there is nothing provoking this conflict beyond Russian imperialism. The erroneously published document outlining the rationale assuming a Russian victory confirmed those sentiments [1].

Ukrainian resistance bought time for a coordinated response and the personal heroism and charisma of Zelenskyy (along with strong American leadership in the background) galvanized Europe. A hard line against wars of conquest is a good one to draw and rally around, even if it isn't perfect.

Should be trivial to add running off the end into into native code, presumably after decompressing it. Process is: 0. start a decompressor; 1. decompress a decryptor; 2. call that to decrypt a composite payload; 3. run off the end into a better, native decompressor to decompress the real payload, and write it out or; 4. run into that.

I.e. it does not suffice to verify that the header is really a lambda calculus evaluator.

Also when you eat.

I recently started doing time restricted eating (16/8) which means I stop eating around 5pm at the latest on a week day. I sleep soooo much better than I used to. I'm not sure if it's a comfort thing, or perhaps some kind of hormonal/neuochemical response, but it really seems to have worked for me.

Specifically I fall asleep much quicker than I used to. I used to listen to podcasts to help me doze off, but now I'm asleep so fast I never actually get to listen to anything much.

> I think I've only been to one Michelin-starred restaurant though — there aren't a lot of those.

That's very much a function of location. The last time I checked here in San Francisco there were 12 Michelin restaurants within walking distance of where I live. I suspect the density in Manhatten or Vegas or Paris would be even higher.

I should also note that there is a real difference in food and experience quality between one star Michelin restaurants and three star. At the three star joints your dates purse gets its own stool. I'm not even joking.

10-15 times/year where I live now (suburb of major city) when you count the brownouts. even though power here is underground, there's enough aboveground that it still goes out or blinks often enough to have a UPS.

when I lived on a mountain, quite a few more for sometimes days at a time.

when I lived downtown in the major city in a high-rise, 2-3 times/year when you counted brownouts/blips.

a slack I'm on for the area had outages throughout the city.

so, if you only get it once in the last 10 years, count yourself lucky. I'm on the west coast, not Texas, and there is quite a bit of power generation nearby.

There are a ton of C++ programmers who are now finding themselves with a need for web dev. Being C++ based and similar API/approach as Qt, you get a big head start.

Compiling to WASM is still early days. I haven't looked into it in a while but I believe that DOM manipulation still isn't 100% implemented, and accessibility is still a big challenge.
So here are two alternative hypotheses:

① Language use is an ingroup signifier, and by writing like this, they are identifying themselves as the sort of person who knows Putin's career began in the КГБ; knows that the Rasputitsa foiled Napoleon, the Mongols, and Hitler; has read enough of Thucydides to know what arguments the Athenians used to justify mass-murdering the Melians; and doesn't particularly care about capitalization, punctuation, spelling, or grammar. Perhaps on rereading the comment thread they feel self-satisfaction in the contrast between their knowledge and my floundering ignorance, or perhaps they are hoping to signal to other people who share their background. Moreover, this sort of shibboleth is a fairly reliable signal; outgroup members who attempt to imitate the ingroup will invariably slip up and use the wrong punctuation mark or something.

② By referencing bits of common knowledge rather than explaining each one, they can lay out their theory of the causality of these geopolitical events in three lines rather than six paragraphs. This is both less effort to write and, for their ingroup audience, less effort to read.

In both cases a necessary condition is lack of interest in communicating with the outgroup.

I just did something similar (though, I hope, less extreme) in https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30505214. I figure that if someone doesn't know what CNG, Fischer–Tropsch, Teamster OOs, Jet A-1, fleet organizations, bunker fuel, etc., are, they can google them; if I tried to explain them it would just get in the way of understanding my already overlong sentences with too many nested clauses which frequently overflow the stacks of the brains of the humans.

Why overcommit is a problem? A program is unlikely to use all the memory that it allocates, or use it only at a later time. It would be a waste to not have it, it would mean having a ton of RAM that never gets used because a lot of programs allocates more ram that they will probably ever need. And it would be inefficient, costly and error prone to use dynamic memory allocation for everything.

The cause of your browser crash is not the overcommit, is simply the fact that you have not enough memory. If you disable overcommit (something you can do on Linux) you would the same crash earlier, before you allocated (not necessary used) 100% of your RAM (because really no software handles the dynamic memory fail condition, i.e. malloc returning null, that you can't handle reasonably).

Null pointers are not a mistake, how do you signal the absence of a value otherwise? How do you signal the failure of a function that returns a pointer without having to return a struct with a pointer and an error code (which is inefficient since the return value doesn't fit a single register)? null makes a perfect sense to be used as a value to signal "this pointer doesn't point to something valid".

Microsoft saying that fork() was a mistake... well, of course, because Windows doesn't have it. fork was a good idea and that is the reason why it's still used these days. Of course nowadays there are evolution, in Linux there is the clone system call (fork is deprecated and still there for compatibility reasons, the glibc fork is implemented with the clone system call). But the concept of creating a process by cloning the resources of the parent is something that to me always seamed very elegant to me.

In reality fork is something that (if I remember correctly, I don't have that much experience in programming in Windows) doesn't exist on Windows, and the only way to create a new process of the same program is to launch the executable, and pass the parameters from the command line, that is not that great for efficiency at all, and also can have its problems (for example the executable was deleted, renamed, etc while the program was running). Also in Windows there is neither the concept of exec, tough I think it can be emulated in software (while fork can't).

To me it makes perfect sense to separate the concept of creating a new process (fork/clone) and loading an executable from disk (exec). It gives a lot of flexibility, at a cost that is not that high (and there are alternatives to avoid it, such as vfork or variations of the clone system call, or directly higher level API such as posix_spawn).

>And basically every new car becomes worth significantly less than the loan value in the first week. This isn't a new problem.

Actually it is, that is why most lenders require you to have Gap Insurance in addition to liability on a new Car Loan

Now i suppose "battery" insurance could also emerge as a new product, but hat really do not change my position any

>If they've only had the car for 2 years then they've barely lost any capacity. Would they even need to replace it so soon?

Are you not following the conversation? Or do you believe every time the car is resold the battery is going to be replaced?

In my hypothetical, a person buys a 10Year old car, then 2 years later they need a battery replacement costing more than the car is worth. They have only had the car for 2 years, but the battery did not magically become new when the car was resold.

> Either way the answer is to consider 80% of a battery as part of the price

The open question is if this can be accurately predicted, sure if you can pull up a report and with 99% percent accuracy show the wear level of the battery that may not be an issue.

My understanding however that this is a "best guess" and is not very accurate and predicting when a battery will actually fail, the health monitor of battery pack far from being as exact as you seem to make it out to be.
'anonymity is a great way to ensure privacy' is a strong argument IMO

if (if) you assume that it's impossible for consumers to account for how sites use and share userdata, requiring businesses to allow anonymous transactions is the only policy solution to privacy

tricky to balance a 'right to anonymous transaction' against other policy goals like financial KYC, fraud protection, but IMO our current KYC approach has been taken too far at the cost of consumer welfare, and there's an unexplored middle ground

The US did not make Putin invade Ukraine. That's like saying Iran made the US invade Iraq, because Saddam didn't give up WMDs because he was scared about Iran. The only person who made Putin invade Ukraine is Putin. The US and West are not the ones that are upping the confrontation. Putin has invaded his neighbors multiple times, is interfering in internal political processes of democracies, and is threatening nuclear weapon use constantly. You can't look at this from one side and say it's the "West's" fault without looking that the Russian actions that were just as, or more escalatory.

Edit: Also, I haven't flagged a single comment today, nor do I think I can flag a reply to my comments.
China would benefit, just like Russia would, from division in the west and a general sense that "world powers can seize territory of similar ethnic groups" (c.f. Taiwan). The invasion has had the opposite effect.

This is a disaster for the PRC too. It's seeming increasingly possible that Putin's government may not even survive and the consolation prize of getting a nuclear power as a Chinese sattelite state may even evaporate.
They know.

But I suspect there is so little money in local news now (partly because of the internet and partly because of the collapse of newspaper-driven local commerce, small ads, all that), that they do not care; they are in a toxic relationship with the only advertising that pays, and to step outside that and construct a local news model that would be sustainable and not abusive to its readers is the stuff of romance novels and Hallmark movies.

With the Reach sites I am surprised by some of the design elements that could be improved even without touching the aggressively bad advertising design, though. The typical "where I live" selector could be so much better.

Ukraine is no different. We can invade Iraq because they are our enemy. Russia CANNOT invade Ukraine because they are our friend.

Answering your follow up here (I'm rate-limited):

> What was different about the 2014 invasion if it is strictly realpolitik friends and enemies?

As I understand things, Crimea is literally the friend/enemy distinction in action (Russian perspective):

Crimea, arguably (and certainly, effectively) was/is a Russian territory, autonomous (but pro-Russian) and with an active Russian naval base, that came under the nominal control of the West after the 2014 regime change (enemy); thus Russia militarily took it back (friend), ensuring its continued independence and pro-Russian stance.

Ukraine responded to Crimea's post-2014 autonomy/invasion/rescue/independence by cutting off their water supply, something Russia built for Crimea during the USSR. (I'm honestly surprised this step wasn't/isn't a Hague-level human rights violation. Maybe the Hague is also operating primarily under the friend/enemy distinction?)
