Sure but I would not equate with coffee which empirically we know can be well-tolerated by most of the population basically from birth to death.

Adderall (dl mixture) is just not the same. We know Adderall tends to exacerbate acne and some forms of dermatitis but we don't know how much. We don't know if the pupil effects contribute to driving incidents. We don't know if dry mouth from Adderall is worse for dental health than the dry mouth that some people get after heavy espresso or other stimulating substances, like pseudoephedrine. We don't think the risk of paranoid behavior is high but it is higher than coffee, of course.

And of course some not insignificant portion of the population can tolerate coffee or pseudoephedrine, but we're not too sure about Adderall. Schizophrenic, bipolar, OCD individuals, those with tics, tachycardia, etc, need to tread carefully with stimulants, even maybe sudafed.

If an autonomous car costs multiples of what a human driven car costs, then adoption by consumers will, as you say, be slow. There is some upside to an autonomous personal vehicle, but it's not profoundly compelling. For starters, if it's your car, taking you someplace, you have to be in it anyway. You only get a benefit when you could be in it and doing something more beneficial than getting yourself where you're headed, while in transit. Sounds wonderful for commuting, but when push comes to shove, I doubt it'll shake loose the dollars for the majority of commuters. But taxi and like delivery fleets are whole 'nother matter. Here the cost of the driver is substantial, and being able to eliminate that cost compelling.

For that same reason, I think you're likely wrong about trucks. I suspect that autonomous - at least for the over the road portion of tips - will be highly compelling. American industry loves to substitute capital for labor costs, and that exactly what autonomous trucks do
I think you might have missed the implication that the humans are doing a terrible job, so a computer doesn't have to be very good to beat them in this situation.

Does Plan 9 have an equivalent to alsa or jackaudio or pipewire, where you can pick a (usually shared memory) ring buffer size, have the kernel or daemon alert you (usually through a poll fd) when there's room in the buffer, and only then perform the necessary calculations (instead of performing a blocking write which adds latency)? What about synchronously receiving blocks of input audio as soon as available, and outputting equally-sized aligned blocks of output audio played back exactly two periods of buffering after the matching input audio? Or chaining three or more apps in a pipeline, all woken in sequence whenever input data is available, and still have only two periods of latency?

The credit card reversal part is solved by 3D Secure 2.0, where the barrier to get a transaction reversed is way higher (the issuing bank has the responsibility to validate it comes from the customer).

It’s awesome when you have a good use and find clients you can provide value to. Less politics but also often requires sales and expectation setting so being your own manager.

I think the tendency for devs not to document what they're doing betrays a lack of empathy for their colleagues. When you write a system, you are now the world expert in that system. Why not write a few words to explain the system? Save an hour or two, each, for everyone who needs to maintain your work? Why not link to the docs of the dependency you choose to use, or the forum posts or white papers that helped form the idea?
Don’t fool yourself - most managers would fall into Persecutor camp not the Rescuer ime.
I think it's OK to pitch a song down to help out the lead singer. Also can make it sound "heavier" and give it a more ambiguous (and perhaps menacing) tuning.

Some radio stations famously (or infamously) sped up songs by 2-3% to fit in more music and/or advertisements and also to sound more energetic (though also possibly chipmunky in the era before pitch correction - now we get roboty instead.) We still have "radio edits" of songs that may cut out less exciting bits and possibly speed up the song as well.

(The thing that puzzles me now is why FM radio seems to sound thin and flat compared to listening to a CD or even a decent MP3 player.)

Yeah. If anything, the primary reason why you wouldn't see lowered prices for external payments is because of Apple putting in requirements--such as Visa and Mastercard did with credit cards <- another case where it was pretty obvious how many companies absolutely wanted to give people paying cash a discount--that developers aren't allowed to sell things at different prices outside and on their store. This narrative that companies wouldn't give people lowered prices just doesn't jive with any of the existing data points or experiences we have in related industries.

I've found it much easier to "vote with your feet" when it comes to faulty leaders rather than attempt to work around them or risk being labeled "difficult to work with" as from my experience it seems to be related to the manager's ego (assuming your not a dongus and are flagging valid things when necessary).

Within any large company, an internal move is fairly simple stuff and an external move will always be more lucrative in terms of compensation.
Unless the authenticator app was already open, in which case skipping to the next token should be possible on demand.

Alternatively, we just found the semantic use case for the <marquee> tag: a properly calibrated scrolling ticker would give readers the clear option (regardless of initial phase) to start reading the newest token or continue reading an older one, as the ideal selection may evolve unexpectedly based on distractions.

No it’s not. China especially is extremely wary of COVID spread more than anything, this product is never going to fly in that market.
Venmo UI used to be a lot more serviceable, but they recently updated the app to add crypto speculation to it, and I have no idea where things are in the redesigned layout. Even then, the requirements are that I need cell service at least, and data service even where I live in a county of 10 million people can be quite spotty. Not to mention I still don't have an unlimited plan and am sometimes throttled before my billing cycle resets.
In our case it was friendly parties. But the YC validation made it straightforward, and I think would help anyone raising before the batch. We were an early admit so we're an unusual situation that way.

And thank you. You're right that execution is all that matters for us. Our most important thing is focusing 100% on what our users want, and iterating as quickly as we can toward product market fit based on feedback. So we are a classic case of "code and talk to users" as all that matters.
I'm pro-cash for the edge cases.

The vast majority of my transactions are done with credit cards. Contactless payment is quick and the points are nice. But when it comes to tipping people (yes, I live in America), shopping at immigrant grocery stores, or dining at mom & pop restaurants, I pay cash because it helps them out. Sure they're underreporting their revenue, but hardly to the degree that Fortune 500 companies are. I just hope my tea leaf salad money isn't being funneled back to Rohingya genocide.

Also, cash is great for those who have trouble budgeting or just barely make enough money. It's not uncommon for folks to take out their allowance for the week and only keep to spending that. A quick glance in the wallet gives you a very tangible and real account balance. Numbers in an app are too abstract.

If there's a time to invoke Chesterton's fence, it's definitely with regards to cash.
Lapsus$ Has Hit Again

Guitar amplifiers are often quite high gain, and the cables sometimes get kind of dirty or bits of adhesive on the connections which can act as a diode. You can also get corrsion on the spring contacts of the input jack.

When the ground shield is not making good contact the cable itself can make a better receiving antenna, and you sometimes hear a station when all the elements align. Lots of guitar pickups are ferritic coils too. But there usually has to be a strong station nearby broadcasting at the lucky frequency.

Wasn't able to read the article but for me the two major portables were the automotive and the handheld.

Car radios were AM for decades before FM got popular. Originally there weren't that many stations across the country so there was less interference, but car radios were really top-shelf items so they could be sensitive enough, to pick up weaker nearby signals as well as sometimes hear powerful stations a hundred miles away or more.

By the 1960's they were even more modern, more sensitive, and expensively made, but the financing made it only a few dollars more on the car payment. If you didn't have a sensitive reciever, driving across the country was lots of radio silence.

Take a look at a 1966 Mustang with its factory AM radio. These were very sensitive recievers with a very extensible antenna, the taller the better for AM because you're working around buildings and geography to pick up from far away pretty much relative to line-of-sight.

This wasn't a directional antenna so it didn't matter what direction the car was going, what mattered was the station's power and the obstacles between you and it.

With hand-held or portable household radios having the internal ferritic AM antenna, these are highly directional so you have to carefully position the radio for best reception and often reposition the radio when changing to a different AM station.

For FM radios added to '60's cars you would retract the antenna down to a couple inches less than an American yard to match wavelengths better, these were not directional either. Eventually there were lots of aftermarket affordable AM/FM tape players after FM took off, not as many people listened to AM and these recievers had an AM section that was usually not so great electronically. With the antenna all the way up it still wouldn't pick up what the factory AM radio could do.

Once the dipoles embedded in the windshields came along, you then had more directional reception and it was tuned for FM by design, so AM gets even less love.

The modern vehicles which do have a conventional fender-mounted whip antenna are usually non-extensible and fixed at the short height that's best for FM.
Thank you! You're spot on there :)
This happened in Fiji, a couple of years ago, in terms of public transport. The government made it illegal for bus operators to accept cash as a form of payment.
Agree 100%.

Visited most cities in India (Delhi, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Bangalore) and the pollution is atrocious. I wanted to return back but had to stay on due to a business trip. I can't imagine why/how anyone would want to live in any of the big cities in India. Love the country though.

> Unfortunately C++ STL does not offer anything close to isclose

maybe because you can trivially write it yourself with whatever precision you want:

float a = 0.1;
float b = 0.2;

// now test for equality to within half of the smallest
// value float can represent

bool equal = fabs (0.3 - (a + b)) < (FLT_EPSILON/2);

Alternatively:

bool isclose (float v1, float v2, float prec = FLT_EPSILON/2) {
return fabs (v1 - v2) < prec;
}

Variations are left to the reader. There are a few optimizations one can do but this version conveys the basic point: you get to specify the semantics of isclose()

I saw a great quote on Reddit recently about psych wards being "conversion camps for the neurodivergent"! That really stood with me.
I think a static site hosted on git is the sweet spot for the fediverse. It's realistic to expect an HTTPS 1.1 static endpoint and openssh to have << 1 unauthenticated remotely exploitable bugs per year.

This opens up a whole new world of hosting options. Think a raspberry pi that auto backs up to github/gitlab/git, with an ACME / let's encrypt client.

Stick it behind the right CDN and it could even host podcasts / video.

Enable automatic OS upgrades and give it a maintenance window and it's zero maintenance until the $35 hardware fails.

Edit: Or be lazy and stick the static site in s3.
I agree that fork (a Unix implementation detail) creates issues like overcommit and complicating memory management (took a look at the paper and I won't dispute the issues it points out). I don't agree that farming out in-app functionality into a herd of daemons (d-bus, desktop portals, pipewire, pipewire-pulse, wireplumber, system and user systemd with daemon-level environment variables) is beneficial for system functionality and doesn't create added complexity (each daemon's state, which daemons are running or crashed, reliance on IPC instead of being able to trace each process in isolation) and new failure modes (apps can't find D-Bus to load the desktop portal, and hang instead, if you login to Wayfire unless you login to Xfce first without killing systemd --user).
Wait, I thought canadian citizenship is pretty much guaranteed after ~3 years as a permanent resident. I'm not sure since I got it when I was 9 years old but is it different now? Is it even possible to get without a PR?
I don't think it's necessarily that simple, if the community doesn't agree to it. The community might have a different idea about the appropriate use of electricity generation, other than selling all available capacity to the highest bidder, and then (probably) having to build out more capacity at greater expense. The community may have other expectations, such as phasing out of fossil fuels or other public goods.
Why would you report yourself as a health & safety risk? You're all good :)

Your partner is worried. So shift the work/life balance to have more life with your partner. Trust the team at work to understand.

Diagnosis from other people does lead to prescription drugs being offered. If someone reading is using chemicals, please pay close attention. Some doctors attempt to prescribe drugs in increasing quantities. That is not the path to sustainable balance. Medications are useful in an ambulance or hospital, they do help in emergencies! But they're not intended to be used routinely for a healthy life.

Peer support is best. Finding humble, open-minded peers can be challenging. The CouchSurfing (now BeWelcome) community is very open-minded and humble. Many church friends are humble. Teaching from the Bible is a reminder of how none of us are perfect, yet God forgives, and shows grace, mercy, and peace.

Some companies try to force concepts like pair programming, mob programming, etc upon their "human resources". It works well for people who like talking & body language, but not for people who prefer reading, typing & listening to music. Personally I prefer reading & typing, and that's why I use Hacker News.

You're not alone, you're welcome here. Interruptions are OK despite the cost of context switching. Diagnosis is not needed, you've already found help. I pray that God will bless you with peace in your personal and professional life, and they'll all catch up to your high-frequency genius ideas soon :)
You definitely can be persecuted and put on watch list. You could be visited to ensure your compliance. You can be intimidated and coerced. And the US government sure as heck has a long record of such tactics.

IMO I prefer seeing things in hand before buying them usually. I have gone to see things that looked great online and walked away from the sale when I saw the flaws in person, so unless I am truly desperate I wouldn't want to buy something before I can see it especially when its used. I've never heard of the tipping contract thing in the U.S., but even still if I give them straight cash that gives the waiter an opportunity to put some in their pocket and the rest into that pool. I've never been scammed personally, but there was a time when credit card skimmers were bad at my college campus/city back when I went. I at least wiggle card readers as hard as I can now at gas stations and ATMs. Plus these days with all your card info being printed on one side of the credit card, it would only take one person behind you in line to snap a quick photo and they have all the info they need suddenly to make purchases.

Kind of backfired for me, because only very rarely were professors able to assign projects that were big enough that I couldn't do them entirely by myself, and I was outright incentivized to do so because even working at that speed I could still produce the whole project at A-grade quality when my teammates would have been satisfied with a B or a C.
Excited to see that this is the way the project will be going forward, been using Paperless-NG for quite a while now and it's a pleasure.
"All" programming languages have some concept of a timestamp, or at the very least can manage a coherent mapping. Adding timestamp to JSON would introduce no portability issues. It would reduce portability issues by standardizing a commonly used data type.

"My programming language doesn't have timestamps" is not a real problem.

"Ten thousand stupid date formats which are all ambiguous with either numbers or strings" is an actual problem that people bang their heads into every day.
