Exactly. OP was asking about hard times.
I don't think diversifying one's income is necessarily good advice. I'd rather have one better paying job that allowed me to invest & save than multiple streams of income that split my focus too much. If you have a day job that covers basic expenses, getting a better job might be a better answer than getting a 2nd job.

> So now it's just OK to seize private property of individuals without any even pretend due process?

Seizing the assets of a de facto government agent of a sanctioned country is following due process. Governments decided by their own internal deliberation mechanisms to sanction Russia for its aggression in Ukraine. The world didn't magically decide to seize assets of some random Russian speakers because they said mean words.

> And now we have american media platforms saying 'yeah, it's fine to call for death to Russians'.

Nope, they relaxed rules specifically with regard to Russian armed forces[0]. It would be pretty ridiculous to ban a Facebook user in Ukraine that call for the defense of their country by attacking the invading soldiers.

Depends on how much of it is required for antidepressant effect. It may not be that much.

Saffron definitely has psychotropic effects, there are anecdotal reports of mild MDMA-like effects when used sublingually in a satchel.

Not that surprising because safrole is an MDMA precursor.
>Unfortunately there is a tremendous amount of propaganda being peddled by all actors involved in this war.

There aren't "actors" nor "both sides" in that war. There is Russian Fascist regime which is conducting genocidal war in Ukraine to erase Ukrainian ethnic and national identity. And there is Ukrainian people fighting for their survival. The propaganda comes only from Russia, as compare to Russian propaganda (say publishing 10-20x smaller Russian losses than they really are among other obvious lies) the inconsistencies in Ukrainian information (say publishing 1.5x larger Russian losses than they really are) are just that - inconsistencies natural for a country being invaded and bombed by overwhelming military force.

>This is just objective reality and the nature of war

That is your reality. The reality of Russian propaganda. "We lie and they must be lying too". A reality of the people who couldn't understand how normal civilized people think and behave.

>Among unbiased observers with a grasp of the situation it is clear that Russia could be doing much more damage to Ukrainian cities

nice. I see that new propaganda spin getting peddled by several pro-Russian "propagandons" like you. Whole world - "You, Russians, are committing grievous war crimes by the indiscriminate bombing of civilians". And the new Russian response - "Russia could be doing much more damage to Ukrainian cities. Be grateful that it isn't", and that is a lie too as Russia seems to be running at the maximum of the available hardware.
Yeah I think you're right it may be the DI and IoC .. I've seen a lot of complaints about that. Usually that it's not 'simple enough'.

But .NET is not a beginners coding environment, it is instead designed to support being all things to all people. That includes including high assurance, and high performance. The DI and IoC is there to support high assurance.

.NET is also quite reasonably approachable for beginners, but as a tool with advanced capabilities too there is of course a bit more of learning curve, and if the reasons why the IoC are there are explained earlier on it helps people to understand that it is designed very sensibly, just with a bit more scope than beginner oriented platforms.
Yes, sure you can do that.

I mean... if you change the size of a type used by value in a bunch of other places downstream (the equivalent of the change in the video), none of what you're describing is going to help much with compile time, since it's not ABI compatible. For less invasive changes rustc already does a decent (not amazing) job of avoiding recompiling unchanged dependents. As far as initial compile time goes, precompiled binaries would definitely help (on non-overpowered hardware particularly), but initial compile time is not really a development bottleneck since people do not recompile from scratch all that often. I do think people dramatically underestimate how long they would spend waiting for the equivalent C++ libraries to compile when comparing from-scratch compilation times to Rust projects, though, but that's neither here nor there.

I guess it depends on how prolific your feed is. I don't have 40 minutes to review the entire timeline every day.

AI is not inherently evil. Yes, I want to see the most relevant / controversial / liked tweets by people I follow. Most of that doesn't need any complex algorithm in the first place.

What I don't want to see are bubble-inducing "recommended" tweets, or tweets liked by someone I follow (isn't that what retweets are for?), or "topics", or "people you should follow". If I wanted an AI-curated feed I'd just go to facebook or read the news.
I would have expected that since 2013 some study with more substance would have appeared...
Imo, the trouble starts with the term "requirements."

There's an old joke about posting requirements to a job site: "(1) awesome webapp (2) really useful (3) must make me a billion dollars.

The requirements problem is like that.

Requirements are "gathered." Reality doesn't work like that. They aren't gathered. They're invented. a collection of requirements adds up to a design. Thinking of it as a bunch of requirements leads to designed by committee problems.

Designers need to know the problem space, the materials, etc. The requirements part can't be separated from those, which is exactly what the concept promotes.
commercial fusion as in the sense of the title is probably meant to mean "making profit", so significantly harder than just sustained fution, which will likely be obtained much earlier.

But it doesn't really matter, for now that's just an aspirational goal, not an imminent reality.
I've thought about this quite a while, and after I'm done with the rage against all advertising I'm left with "wait, if there's no advertising, how are new companies going to let the world know they exist?".

I really hate the world as is, polluted with meaningless, over-optimized advertisement, but at the same time I also think that "no advertisement" is definitely not the answer.

As with most things, I think we have to find a good balance. Maybe a good way to start would be for governments to set (harsher) limits to advertisement. Allowing less seconds of ads per each hour of content, forbidding print ads in certain areas, etc etc.

Wowee, Websites on the Internet using JavaScript and Tracking Pixels to Record Everything We Do! This is the first time I’m hearing about it (https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&qu...). I certainly don’t have any counter measures available to block these activities from happening on my computer (uBlock Origin and similar tools can block these requests). I wonder how common this is (An estimated 55% of all sites on the internet use Google Analytics)?

I’d suggest that you stop worrying. People have been consistently asking this question since at least 2017, convinced that a recession is just around the corner.

If you’re really truly convinced of an impending recession the best thing you could do would be to take out massive short positions. However, I suspect that you’re not so convinced.

Beyond that I’d suggest just living a life within your means. Calculate your bare cost of living expenses and save up a six month emergency fund. If you’re seriously concerned then go for a 12 month emergency fund.

Yep, this is something that Hitler did, when he seized the property of the Jews, but people are currently acting like nazis did, just against the russians now.

This also sets another dangerous precendent, that you can just sieze property of someone you don't like... people protesting against covid measures? Seize their property. Protesting against a pipeline.. sieze their property! BLM, pro-trump, anti-trump, eco-protests, sieze everything!
Bill Gate's "How to Avoid a Climate Disaster" is a good layperson introduction on the topic (I include myself in this):

https://www.amazon.co.uk/How-Avoid-Climate-Disaster-Breakthr...
- Video playback breaks regularly and it takes 4-5 days for fixes to hit F-Droid. This is waaaay too slow.

- Random other stuff keeps breaking, not that the 100+ lines of recursive Java gibberish in the crash popups tell you what broke (but the crash reporter itself does break regularly, too)

- App structure is counterintuitive: You have tabs on the main screen, and the side bar... duplicates the tab buttons, but turns the tabs into overlays that disable search and other functions? What?

- Content discovery is a mess: I cannot search specific channels. I cannot sort results. I cannot access channel playlists. It's always faster to open a browser and use the youtube website for this, even on mobile.

- Content organization is a mess: I cannot sort anything, period. Nor can I filter (e.g. to filter out videos already watched, or filter for videos started but not finished, ...), or bookmark specific videos, or do anything else with the content.

- Speaking of already watched videos, tracking progress isn't reliable.

- A few updates ago, video playback was turned into a multi-stage procedure, and now I need 3+ clicks to exit a video that already finished playing. What?

- Video overlay UX is horrible. I don't even know what details to go into, nothing about it is intuitive and I ended up crashing Newpipe a few times just trying to exit it (or go back to regular view), and I gave up on ever trying to use it.

And so on and so forth. That's just off the top of my head.

NewPipe works if you're subscribed to a small amount of channels that update rarely, and you go watch each video when it comes out, so you don't lose track of what's where and what you watched, and don't mind the occasional youtube-free week. For anything else it breaks down quickly, and hard.

If you're, like me, subscribed to a dozen channels that have backlogs in the hundreds of videos to go through, it's a nightmare. I force myself to use it to minimize my exposure to YT's website/client, but I am not enjoying the experience and cannot in good conscience recommend it to anyone else.
I use that a lot, I even created a web service where I have my favourite RSS feeds that get pushed to pocket when they get new content which then gets synced to my Kobo device.

It's much better than the kindle option where sending the content over email feels like a twenty years step back.
Then, by the same token, why did we end up with a near-monopoly in search and highly concentrated duopoly in mobile devices where Apple can charge 30% of revenues made? It’s hardly competition. These adverse effects happened due to lack of regulation. It’s called the real world, not socialism :)
JITs can sometimes be faster than compiled binaries because they have runtime information, but realistically it's probably because Mojang has had years and years to optimise.

The Pearl is most definitely still a safe place to walk around. Like any other big city there will be instances where you encounter a houseless person or someone with mental problems but the neighborhood is still one of the nicest in the downtown area. Granted crime has gone up but this is something that is taking place all over the city (and country for that matter)

Same thing can be said about 23rd street. Maybe you have your own personal fears but the two areas you called out are not nearly as shuttered as they were at the peak of pandemic / protests, or when compared to downtown. Also, people seem to be totally comfortable enjoying those two areas. Not sure if you’ve noticed but on sunny days you cannot keep people from congregating in the pearl and around 21st / 23rd ave.
Abdou's point is that the RAMI problem has to be solved to continue to do research, and solving it has a higher priority than getting higher dpa tolerant materials.
>My personal disdain for MVP-ing is [...], and it leaves little room for corrective action

The "corrective action" is actually embedded into the MVP / Lean Startup terminology popularized by Eric Reis: https://www.slideshare.net/startuplessonslearned/minimum-via...

It's just the that acronym wasn't longer such as MVPI (Minimum Viable Product Iteration) or MVPLL ((Minimum Viable Product Learning Loop).

>Customers lie, but so does data.

The "data" in the MVP iteration framework doesn't lie because the relevant data is "paying customers". Either the startup has growing revenue from its product or it doesn't.

> [...] it's reasonable to assume reading comprehension [...]

I think you overestimate the service and work provided by individuals "translating" and copying/posting these articles. Especially cross-copied news articles require high volume output in a short amount of time to be economical. That's why you have so many nonsensical errors in translated articles, especially the ones aimed at click-baiting you.

> That makes no sense; successful companies will figure this out and unsuccessful companies will lose their talent

I think there's a rational argument for it. Yes they will lose some talent by not raising wages to the market rate, and maybe they will lose a lot of talent this way. But they will also keep talent cheaply that:

* finds job interviews exhausting

* hates negotiating

* has good relationships with colleagues they don't want to lose

* has a comfortable commute or WFH arrangement they don't want to change

* is proud of becoming an expert / go-to-person in some part of the business and doesn't want to lose that source of social capital

* is proud of product or service they have made a big contribution to and wants to "see it through to the end"

* is generally impresionable and does what management want without too much complaint

If leaving the country wouldn't be an issue, a formally established rite of "financial lynching" could be an interesting tweak to society: have a regularly occurring vote about who is the least popular rich/powerful person and the "winner" gets a very generous stipend but is stripped of all assets and contracts, like starting with new name (and data, to curb stockpiling of blackmail material for the reboot). Much safer for everyone involved than allowing imbalance to grow until it's eventually cleared out in a revolution.

I agree I'm not expecting that to happen, but is it impossible a coup/revolution could happen that sees a new leader willing to agree to offer up some war criminals for any cases the ICJ brings as part of a post-war treaty to get sanctions removed? Surely crazier things have happened to countries' leaderships and smaller demands have been made in peace treaties.

Let's stop with pretending that the reason why Ukrainian deaths are different is for any other reason than because they're pale skilled Europeans with blue eyes and blonde hair.

There are second jobs that can be done alongside full time jobs...

I'm in a situation getting similar to this Ask HN... I have a family that depends on my income (plus, it's very stable/secure, enjoyable, but unfortunately under market pay). If I find a better job, and things don't work out, we'd have virtually no household income... However, I was able to find a second job (which required honing one additional skill) to pull in $3000/year working a few nights a year... Which helps pay for unexpected expenses.

> Of course these individuals have links to their government, you think you can find some rich Americans who aren't somehow linked to their government?

Yes. And if America invaded Mexico and started shelling their cities, I'd like the world to do exactly the same. Tank the dollar into the ground and seize all assets of American companies and individuals who own over a 100mln dollars and stop all trade. You are benefiting for your government, you are materialy responsible for its actions. In the modern world there's no other way to keep the world sane.

If something is going bit too far is excluding Russian sport and culture. But even that it only mild overstepping since large number of Russians support their government and large part of Russian export of culture and sport is government subsidized.

How strongly the world reacts now is the only thing that can curb future teritorial ambitions of other countries like China. The message should be clear. Starting a war will cost you, your economy and the wealth of your wealthiest. And the world will really shrink for you because you won't be able to enjoy its freedoms.
