It's more the point that sometimes you don't want to have to justify yourself to all and sundry, especially when the person you're talking to has no real insight and wants to appear smart. I've been to loads of events where you just want to have a nice chat and before you know it you're getting a lecture on all the ways in which you're going to fail. One time, I didn't even want to talk about my stuff but was basically forced to have to justify myself.

Do this a few times and it gets exhausting. It's got nothing to do with whether you can answer the questions, and everything to do with the fact that sometimes you just don't want to answer the questions.

You sure on the oxalic acid aspect? I could see it maybe for bugs, but I figured the crystals would be too tiny. Oxalic acid causes kidney problems in larger organisms because it is hard to process. I suppose its crystal formation and poor solubility are linked here.

> So yes, that "++*barrier" operation is read-modify-write atomically AND with memory-barriers in sequential-consistency style

The quoted material does not describe this assertion.
It depends on what you are optimizing for and where you are optimizing for. Standard and Daylight times have different meanings in different sides of the time zone. On Eastern edges of a time zone Standard time truly is more "standard" with respect to solar noon. On Western edges of a time zone Daylight time starts to be more preferable and closer to solar noon. Half-hour between the two might favor the "middle" of the time zone perhaps and/or it might just leave all the populations on either side of the time zone unhappy.

Arguably our timezones have grown too wide to accommodate preferences of both edges. Our timezones were optimized for train schedules and full hour-wide zones made some sense based on the speed of train travel. Maybe instead of trying to pick just "Standard" Time or just Daylight Time we should instead be talking about narrowing our time zones (to half-hour wide, perhaps) and better figure out what geography we are best trying to represent versus solar noon, the center of a timezone, one edge or the other.
As I posted elsewhere, I'm bipolar and the time changes literally ruin 4 weeks out of the year for me.

I wish they had choose EST but fuck it, I'll take EDT. I don't care. I just want this to stop.
Pricing relative to your rank as a percentile has some weird properties, one month you might be in the 99% then next month it cost you big $$ in the 1% with exactly the same traffic.

That would be surprising to most people I’d expect, totally not deterministic and kinda hostile. A more explicit “unlimited = 2TB/month” no matter your percentile would be more honest, but then you’ve said “unlimited == limited” which is a lie.

The percentile thing seems like a fairly obvious hack to keep using the word unlimited. Probably an MBAs idea..
Each of our car clocks have to be changed manually. The clocks on the stove and microwave have to be changed manually. We have 7 wall clocks in the house that have to be changed manually. Our kids have alarm clocks that all have to be changed manually. The sprinkler system has a clock that has to be set manually. Even our garage door opener has a clock that has to be set manually. It is a huge pain every six months.
What do we think about the impact on our software? I have no clue about how my OS deals with TZ info changes over time or how older systems would behave absent a centralized management system.
> Or... maybe people just use less. 7 percent? Easy.

E10 (current standard) == 90-units of gasoline / petroleum.

E15 == 85-units, or a 5.6% reduction. That's most of that 7% reduction already handled.

E20 == 80-units, or a 12% reduction in gasoline from E10. Done and done.

I'm not trying to oversell anything. It just seems like one of the easiest sources of alternative fuel we got. You're right in that more advanced ethanol exists beyond corn, but those advanced refineries only exist in small numbers.

Realistically speaking, if we are to ramp-up ethanol production in this country, its gonna be corn. The advanced-biofuels are _almost_ ready, but still something that's a year or two away from mass production. (They're done the "research" phase and we're even making millions-of-gallons of cellulosic ethanol per year... but its not the billions we need quite yet)

------

I'm not trying to "oversell corn", I'm just acknowledging that we can't really rely upon adv. biofuel (ex: Switchgrass ethanol) quite yet. I'm optimistic on that front. But if we're talking about solutions that may exist by the time these Russian sanctions hit our economy (ie: once our domestic strategic oil reserves run out), its looking like Corn is the short-term answer.
> You'll probably leave your home at dark in the morning and will return again at dark.

That's what happened in my high school years in France, which still changes clocks twice a year. Wake up in complete night, take the bus and wait for classes to start under yellow lightbulbs, then go out in the sun for the first time in the day at noon.

I don't understand why people are afraid that this will bring what was already happening.

I recommend you read time keeping on the computer systems. Without NTP and some atomic clocks on the network, computers can't keep accurate time themselves.

And using a moving window / sun synchronization like that is just brave to put it mildly.

Changing your working hours means a talk with your boss and maybe HR. If we didn’t have DST maybe it would be a box you check when you get hired.

We spend so much on engineering systems that handle DST changes, there’s an increase in sleep deprived auto accidents, people die from heart attacks… All to avoid individuals asking for different hours at work?

Sorry, “changing” time twice a year is not a reasonable substitute for scheduling work appropriately depending on the season.
That's a little bit like saying a barber should only cut hair the way he'd want to wear it. Being part of a professional, maybe the defining feature is to be able to understand what customers want and to do it without bringing personal preference into it, unless that's asked for.

It’s less the act of changing the clocks and rather the ill effects of losing an hour of sleep and readjusting for a few days of the year.

What could be really cool is a lunchbox portable computer with a keyboard that closes on the front: https://www.flickr.com/photos/befuddledsenses/493303864

I think you could make it pretty small but still large enough to fit two small PCI-express cards and replaceable/upgradeable RAM modules. It would be a good format for tinkerers, very amenable to having replaceable parts and being user-serviceable. Throw some GPIO in there and you would have a real winner for the maker crowd.

One negative would be you'd need to get the entire world on board. I mean, there are a handful of off-by-30 time zones in existence, but the rest of the world is in sync in that way.
I wouldn't say a direct connection between those things is "obvious". Seems like you could just as easily argue that they are "obviously" indirectly related (ex. COVID-19 would effect social distancing, which would effect population density, which would effect real estate and housing).

But I agreed that the "nodes" I just made up are arbitrary, and that you could make an argument that everything effects everything else in some way. So it's not clear to me what gets to be a node and what constitutes an edge.

A noble effort, I'm all for exploring it, but it seems like pie in the sky.
I disagree with this post (personally). As a founder, being asked by a friend, "why do you believe you can do better than Google" if I'm working on a search engine is exactly what I want to be asked. If I'm founding a search engine startup, that's probably the single question I have the best answer to, and it tees me up really well to give a strong pitch of my core differentiation.

At my previous startup (Heap) I loved answering "how are you different than Mixpanel?" and at my current startup (Airplane.dev) I love answering "how are you different than Retool / Rundeck?"

By contrast, the proposed alternative questions, e.g. "How will you get your first x users?" are much more annoying. I'm happy to answer that kind of question for a VC or a prospective hire, but if a friend asked me this casually I'd find it somewhat tedious to go through our growth strategy.

Just my 2 cents–I'm sure every founder is a bit different in terms of what they like/dislike being asked in a social setting.

>Investing is understanding a business and industry and forecasting when there's a margin of safety of that companies future growth, relative to it's current trading price and reported financials/leadership/company earnings communications/all

That's giving me the biggest eyeroll ever. You can throw all the academic wording out there you want. I've been through all that, I know precisely what you mean. And it's nearly all bs.

>Long term investing is not meant to be gambling, and that's the entire point of our platform, to educate people/having them think that stocks aren't just lottery tickets you buy when someone at the bar says "it's going to the moon"

Fair enough. However, yes, it is gambling. You don't control anything about the company you are 'investing' in. You can do all the research you want, you can think you know whatever. But you have no control over idiosyncratic events.

Also, why are you even suggesting people 'invest'? Just so they can "make more money" by putting money into something they can never fully understand or have control over?

I probably wasn't clear the first time around- and that was kind of intentional. Yes I am completely against the world of "investing" because it's just people trying to make money. That's literally it. So let's call it what it is- gambling- and stop pretending like investing is a "good thing".
For me the main madness was not DST but the fact that countries (in particular US and EU) start and end DST at different dates.

Honestly, I don't get the complaint about one hour change two Sundays a year.

But the several weeks a year of conflicting meeting bookings in companies that cross the pond is much more infuriating.
Your comment neatly encapsulates the problem.

If the primary driver of our circadian rhythm is sunlight, switching from DST and back leads you to doing stuff an hour off from your body’s natural circadian rhythm.

It’s not about changing your clock. It’s about changing your body’s schedule.

> France and Spain have no business being in CET/GMT+1 at all

Technically of course you're correct (and you'd probably need to include the Netherlands, Belgium and Luxembourg in there), but thousands of people drive across those borders every day. Clearly the timezones need to have borders somewhere, but it's probably easier in practical terms to keep the timezones of adjacent countries synchronised wherever possible. It also makes sense of the very late-night culture of Spain when compared to countries further east, because they're probably eating around the same solar time as the other countries. The one I find weirdest is the western hold-out Portugal.

The original comment of yours that I replied to says that "torture = bad" and that all that separates good and bad people is principle. I have two reasons for challenging this. First, it's just not true. Torture, in some cases, is completely justified. These cases are both hypothetical (you need to find the dirty bomb going to kill millions) and real (beat a car thief to save a child). Second is to question the underlying principle that makes torture usually immoral.
It’s not even about the manual clock changes honestly for me.

I never thought that changing clocks was the pain.

It’s that everyone gets jetlag kinda randomly.

One hour extra of sleep or one hour less. It’s just random, seemingly comes out of nowhere and knocks me on my ass for a couple of days while my body gets used to doing everything the same but an hour earlier or later.

It’s literally the same as jetlag except I don’t have any environmental clues to help my body understand it’s _supposed_ to be doing something different

nixOS is built around hashing the outputs of its builds, so you can verify if a build produces the expected output given the same inputs. The reason nixOS patches binaries is so that they can actually find the shared objects they expect when they are not stored in /usr/lib. Since every build output gets its own unique path, this allows for a binary to link against two slightly different versions of the same library, which in practice is never an issue one needs to resolve. However, a more practical issue this solves is that you can have a single sysroot with two binaries that need two slightly different versions of the same library.
I'll skip this one, and wait for RVA22-compliant devices.

This machine uses the Allwinner D1[0] SoC, which is pre-standard V, incompatible with the standard V extension ratified in December.

Even if not enabling/using the V, and thus considering it just RV64GC, it is a fairly slow one relative to what's already available in the market, and it comes with just one core.

I already have the ~$21 LicheeRV w/Dock[1], which uses the same D1 SoC. IMHO much more cost efficient if you want to play with D1.
