> but anyway, CCs were cheap before Biden - not sure how much it’s changed with him.

Cheap is relative depending on your income level. Prices have also been going up year after year so when you went to school may not reflect current prices. Seeing as you seem to have a mentality that is not considering of facts on the ground, it appears like you went to school quite a while ago.

>I spent a year at a CC so I know what it’s like

So did I, In fact I worked with CC professors and administrators. I mentioned that in the reply you clearly didn't read.

>and you are doing a lot of exaggerating. E.g. listings a bunch of bogus fees that would never all apply to a single person and are typically small.

Of course not every fee applies to every student but the point was that all these fees are a further hinderance to paying for that tuition. Furthermore, if the fees are supposedly so cheap, why aren't they covered? Surely if you think it isn't an issue then just extend the full coverage to all students no?

> And it’s not hard to get exemptions for hardship or retake classes… you don’t get booted out forever.

I'm not sure if you just misread my statement or just don't care but I am referring to NJ's specific program. Of course you don't get booted out of CC, it is open enrollment! But this rule is just another way to filter out even more people, like I said, screw up your one chance and you are finished, on to the street with you.

>Also, complaining about a 6 credit hour minimum, really?

Yes because about 13M people hold two or more jobs.

[1]: https://www.census.gov/library/stories/2019/06/about-thirtee...

Sure it won't harm every applicant but yet again for the nth time, the point is that it is another hurdle preventing people from escaping their current conditions. Again if this is such a non-issue to you then surely you'd agree the rule is dumb and should be removed no?

>It sounds like you want adult daycare where everyone gets an A and can then continue on to Berkeley.

I don't know where these smug idiots crawled out of after Trump got elected but I remember a time on HN when your kind of personality wasn't constantly roaming around and acting in bad faith.

>If you actually spent time around a CC then you would know that there are lot of unserious people that come through and refuse to put in the minimal effort and fail for that reason. What usually happens if that they grow up (e.g. get a job and get married) and come back later and do much better.

Completely disagree: The majority of the people who were failing out of those remedial courses were middle age or older. Yes there are young people fresh out of HS flunking out but they are a smaller percentage of people and typically do not take those remedial courses. Those courses start at more of a high school level. Thats how bad it is although it seems like you live in a different universe so I wouldn't expect you to realize it anyway.
It's arbitrary to a company when it comes to wages. What matters is "can we hire/retain the people we want at compensation $X".

If $X needs to increase because they can hire/retain the people they want, then $X needs to increase.

The government publishing a single inflation numbers is kind of irrelevant to the equation. If they can keep hiring/retaining the people they want, in spite of inflation going up, then nothing has to change.

Ask HN: What do you look for in a romantic partner?
What do you value the most in a romantic partner?

I'm currently in a situation where I have 2 people in my life:

A long-term partner that I've been with for almost 5 years(last 2 years open relationship). They are super fun and chill and make me feel good, but their irresponsibility is driving me nuts and I cannot imagine them being like this once we have kids. They have almost no goals and give up on things easily.

My new partner is a medical doctor. We hang out pretty much all the time and are able to talk about intellectual and spiritual things and I can definitely imagine having an "adult life" with them, but they are a bit too serious and lack fun.

The reason I'm asking here on HN and not Reddit/Quora is that the majority of HN readers are probably, personality-wise, a bit like me: most likely introverted, pragmatically-thinking nerds that I can mostly relate to.

Also, sorry for my bad English, it's not my first language.
It is very common to impose rationing instead of taxation.

CAFE standards don't tax cars by fuel consumption; they ration fuel consumption. California electric bills are a mix, complicated by the quasi-governmental status of PG&E, but you can get a small ration of electricity at a high price, but anything beyond your ration comes at an extremely high price. During the late 70s energy crisis, US rationing measures limited how much fuel you could put in your car or truck not per week but per gas-station visit, resulting in truckers having to fill up their tanks only halfway at each fuel stop. California's new measure, when it goes into effect, will not tax gasoline generators; it will just prohibit selling new ones, and it's built on a regulatory framework that rations pollution rather than taxing it. Fuel rationing is also historically extremely common in wartime.

As Wes points out, one political reason for this is that rationing is felt to be less unjust than Pigovian taxation because the burden falls equally on everyone rather than disproportionately on the poor. Often this is only true in theory, as the trucker example demonstrates.

There is every reason to expect that making rationing rather than taxation easier will further increase its use as a tool of social policy.
Aren't the ~2000+ models the ones that were made after GM/Opel(?) bought them out and converted to their common platforms?
That's pretty much the thinking behind layouts of malls and grocery stores.

Grocery stores put common items like milk way in the back, in order to have you traverse the whole store and get exposed to as many meters of shelf as possible. They generally also like to change placement of product, to make sure you don't learn the layout and get too efficient at navigating.

Malls try to balance enabling people to find what they are looking for, but also make sure they don't find it too easily so that people can wonder about and be exposed to as many stores as possible.

If you enter the Dubai Mall from the metro, there's a big sign that points to the left and says "Food Court". You'd get to the food court much faster if you turn right.
If no one would use it if it was opt-in, that says something about the actual demand for such a thing, aside the product makers.
That reminds me of this article[1] by Bryan Cantrill. One takeaway is that Rust's ability to easily import generic data structures makes the average Rust program faster than the average C program.

With a bit of effort, C can be made faster than Rust, but if I'm writing a simple utility in C that needs a linked list, I'm going to write the simplest possible implementation, straight from an algorithms textbook. It's better for it to be slower, but more understandable and maintainable.

With Rust, the implementation I import has far more work put into it. I don't need to worry about how complex it is though, since its part of the standard library and I trust that people smarter than me have checked over what it does.

If any of you guys at Substack can answer this, it would be great: I'm a huge fan and proponent of Substack as a professional space writer and "blogger" from the days of the old. But if there's one thing I think Substack does wrong it's the "Welcome page". Can we please get an option to disable showing the Welcome page" to people who haven't subscribed? I don't want to shove the email form in people's faces before they've read or browsed anything. I've personally seen the welcome page also being confusing to many readers, and it deters them from browsing at all—"Let me read first" isn't intuitive. It's also really annoying for people who choose to browse my articles from the Web and just don't prefer email.

The welcome page is my single biggest gripe with Substack. Sending people to the /about or /archive pages directly doesn't help because the moment people click on the logo or title to visit the homepage, the email form is shown again. If Substack is marketing the platform as being designed for "Bloggers" too (https://substack.com/for-bloggers), then you shouldn't treat publications as merely being newsletters with an email form. You acknowledge it yourself in this HN post intro that Substack is much more than a newsletter! And I agree, except it doesn't feel like it.

The new Substack app allows people to read and discover Substacks without being shown the welcome form, it only makes sense to have the Web version behave the same too. While I would understand not changing it by default but why not at least have it as an option for writers? Substack already lets writers toggle a bunch of major and minor settings to tweak their publication, why not this too?

Hotels don’t make money if you stay in the room, it actually costs them money in terms of electricity. But they do want you to spend money so they might indeed do things such as banning outside food deliveries or making the basin un-pluggable so that you can’t do your own laundry.

Most users weren't learning search operators before Google came along either.

Google's goal is to make them ultimately irrelevant and just give you what you're looking for, meeting the user halfway on the search query. That may not be possible, but it's the right mindset to have for solving the problem... Making the human talk like a computer is a UI failure.

As much as I'd like to help people here, having come from a country where for a long-time inflation was so expected that it was baked into everything, I can say, we don't want to assume that much inflation into salary increases. That's a spiral that can quickly go out of control.

>There's literally a Trump app on the App Store right now dedicated to spreading falsehoods about the 2020 presidential election.

Well, touting the fact that the App Store, in its benevolence, allows an app by an ex-POTUS, like it's some sort of triumph of free speech speaks volumes, doesn't it?

The ability of an ex-president to have such reach would go without saying in the past. Now it's up to the whims of Big Tech - and Twitter and others had already cancelled them.
> For the members of Congress you need to convince of this? They ARE the state

We agree in a limited sense. (There are lots of politicians who genuinely believe in curtailing state power.)

Arguments about state overreach won’t convince a power-hungry vote chaser. Talk about foreign adversaries will.

Request an increase in equity to the equivalent that a new hire is getting by default. If not, you may have to decrease your rate of productivity (or working hours) in line with the difference between the raise percentage and the inflation percentage.

Stigler's law of eponymy[1] rules them all.

1. Wikipedia: "Stigler's law of eponymy ... states that no scientific discovery is named after its original discoverer. ... Stigler himself named the sociologist Robert K.

Same in the Netherlands at Albert Heijn stores stock a whole range of cooked, ready to eat foods. They taste really good too. People routinely grab sandwich/salad/etc., for lunch. I think other chains (Jumbo etc.,) stock them too but I found Albert Heijn ones to be of much better quality.
I have not been to Japan.

I have been to Paris.

When I was there, apparently every other store on the block was selling, essentially, ham and cheese sandwiches on a baguette. "Jambon et fromage". They had cases stacked with them.

Simply, they were amazing. I wasn't there long, but I ate several of them. In fact, the last meal I had at the airport was one of these sandwiches and it was amazing as well.

I can't put my finger on it, was it the ham, the cheese, the bread, "being in Paris", but it's been difficult to find anything comparable here. Our "sub" sandwiches are just not the same as these things. Even the sandwiches at, ostensibly, "french" bistros aren't the same.

Maybe it's the water.

But, anyway, I know what I'll be eating as soon as I return, whenever that may be.
More plausibly, someone used extremely weak WiFi cryptography to access the Internet through your ISP. Even if you have a password on such services, between routers with vulnerabilities, backward compatible connectivity (E.G. for your old game consoles / appliances), and maybe even passwords guest devices have shared with the cloud; it really could be anyone who was ever near your connectivity.

I am sorry that these things happened to you, and this highlights how the rights of the accused to face their accusers, with legal representation present as well as to not be discriminated against before adjudication of those charges should be the standard and only procedures. Maybe for some highly important things these accusations might initially be under seal; but there should still be a defense present to advocate for the accused.

Writing a doubly linked list is trivial if you use a backing vector and view into it. Which is how you should do it.

Linked lists are awful data structures and just as difficult to implement soundly in a thread safe context everywhere else. Rust just yells at you for doing it wrong.

I reiterate, unless you have a damn good reason, a linked list is an awful data structure. They're slow and cumbersome and have no advantages at small or large scales. The cases where you want them are few and far between and not in any undergraduate DSA course or application.

How to run Twitter account data analysis
With reverse chronological timeline, it's harder to build a advertising profile.

While it's important to know what tweets a user is interacting with, the personalization option can surface more things as "You might like", "You follow x, and he liked", "Interesting tweet on the topics you follow/might like" and so on. Whether or not you choose to interact with anyone or more of those is a signal, and helps with advertising (if advertising is a question of "What tweet/content you are likely to interact with?"). Other than brands, most twitter influencers, or would-be influencers end up spending money on twitter ads to gain followers.

With a reverse chronological timeline, it's hard to surface those tweets from outside the network without a jarring experience. They also realize the power of defaults and hence they decided to take away the default option.
