> Whenever we will message on slack asking a question, they would respond 10-15 mins later almost 90% of the time.

in fairness tough, i do that too sometimes, but it's because i'm in the middle of something and i don't want to lose the focus.

when i see the slack notification if it's not about an outage or something similar, i try to finish the thing i'm doing (or at least reach a state where i can commit to git) and then reply.

and by the way, remote work should exploit asynchronicity. forcing people to always reply within 15 seconds is going to burn them out (and would do the same in an office)
Ah, yes, cape gooseberries are indeed closer, so I can see the comparison better now.
Ah yes; I did see that but forgot to mention it: https://makecode.com/language
That wasn't very polite, mr. lemon.

Also, I'm not sure what you're referring to, having read it twice.
The limits on cylinder size at a given compression ratio are dictated by the engine speed, and spread of the flame front in the cylinder. You need the fuel to burn relatively quickly in a gasoline engine, and the fire only spreads at a certain speed (determined by compression ratio and turbulence in the cylinder). If you increase the compression, you decrease the speed of the flame front in the cylinder, and eventually cause incomplete or inefficient combustion.

Sounds like the error is yours. Trusting science isn't tantamount to trusting academia.
Thanks. I'll freely admit to not knowing/understanding the norms and etymology of the term.

I was under the impression that these were spaces where people (traditionally marginalized peoples) could speak about their beliefs and feelings particularly as they related to the dominant norms without fear that their view points would be further marginalized or silenced.

At some level, that seems also to be what the professor is now advocating for as well. Though perhaps he may be doing so only because the marginalization is (also) being inflicted on those with political views he supports.
There are many. Here are a couple.

No, they're always changing for the worse. New regulations get piled up and adopted faster than ever. More procedures and paperwork constantly get into pipelines.

Many kids in the control group dropped out. This left the kids who did not improve in the control group

>The vast majority of kids who dropped out of this study didn’t access GAM. By the end of the study, just 6/63 of the remaining kids who provided mental health data, or 9.5% of the study participants, were in the no-GAM group. Overall, according to the researchers’ data, 12/69 (17.4%) of the kids who were treated left the study, while 28/35 (80%) of the kids who weren’t treated left it

If the study had continued to get details from all the kids we probably would not have seen an improvement compared to the control group.
I agree. Why is this an hourly charge? Same for endpoints in a private subnet.

Are there actual compute resources necessary to make endpoints and nat gateways work?
Better arguably would be to use a generator or continuation.
I think if they write decent SQL, they probably understand much of relational algebra, just not the standard notation and jargon.

I guess my confusion is your initial statement "Lets not customize it then" followed by you proposing fully customized installs, and I'm not sure if I missed your point.

I only brought up trusted vendors because it seemed that you also want repositories of customization scripts, and I don't disagree, but it shifts the trust from the people making your operating system to you reviewing a bunch of scripts to get the system you want.

I'm making a point that people don't want that at all. That will absolutely cause analysis paralysis, there would be too many possibilities, and it would continue this idea that Linux is hard and elitist when it really shouldn't have to be that way.
I don’t believe the “ads work subconsciously” bs. Whenever I plan to buy something I a) look it up beforehand or b) (if it’s a routine purchase like groceries or household essentials) follow some method like brand name, second cheapest, iterate between different brands, etc.. b could be influenced by subconscious advertising but i just don’t think so, and anyways, most of the things that are heavily advertised (car insurance, expensive stuff, apps) are things I’m going to research before buying.

I do think advertising works, it works because there are unaware people who do impulse buy expensive things and buy whatever they see. Lots of people probably aren’t going to research what olive oil or smart TV is the best, they just want to get their shopping done. And, kind of like how IAPs work because some people will spend thousands of dollars on them, some people spend thousands of dollars on impulse buys.
I've always wondered.. Was a game like GTA5 80GB+ because it contained the audio for localized in-game speech for english/french/spanish/italian/etc.? Does this really happen? Aren't we at the point yet where the audio is only downloaded on demand for the localization of the PC unless opted-into later? Also. Don't need your textures for playing on an 8k monitor if I'm playing at 1440p.. unless I want them.
Yeah I meant speed of execution. Sorry for the letdown! But https://github.com/swc-project/swc is a very fast Typescript compiler written in Rust :)
I had my forth child 15 years after my other three, when I was well into my mid-30's.

I find that appreciate/savour/lament his growing much more than I did my others. Maybe this is because I am an older dad or maybe because I have grown 3 children already and I can appreciate how quickly those years pass.

I would add that Uber has traditionally operated at a loss, and on top of that they don't provide the same level of benefits and payment to their "contractors".(whether or not they should is a different question)

While they did disrupt the taxi market, they are also setting false expectations about what sort of model is viable in the space since _Eventually_ they will need to bring in revenue or could potentially be forced to pay their drivers more which would lead to a big hike in prices and would probably have an impact on how it functions now.
This. Yesterday I was looking for a pc case and google showed only irrelevant results for x vs y. Typing reddit, bam instant discussions about the topic even with more useful information.

A concern I've always had with gender affirming treatments is that there's a strong belief that it is a medical condition, and not a psychiatric problem. I'm not a doctor or anything like that, but it seems to be very much a psychological issue, not a medical issue. Hormone treatment, surgeries, etc. are like medication to cover up the symptoms, but unless mental health is introduced to treat the psychological side, I don't think persons will find relief.
I'm not the op and this is the first time I've seen someone else use the term, but I've used it too. Aspirationally - small and impossible to kill. While a unicorn's goal might be growth at all costs (with associated high chance of failure), our goal is to survive anything that might get thrown our way.
Fauci continued to lie and deceive even after the next bozo took office.
This is pretty hilarious to read.

I did an interview screen with them at the end of last year for a data engineering position (former coworker was high up on the design side of things and he gave a referral). The first bit of the technical question was just "write a SQL query" and boiled down to doing a group by, count, and limit. The second was something like "what if we needed to return this query from a distributed system without going to the database?" without much context.

As any sane interviewer would do, I asked for context around scale, infrastructure, and what "without going to the database" even meant. The interviewer just reiterated the question. I started talking about different approaches depending on context and all the interviewer did was tell me to program a solution. Turns out all he wanted was a time-windowed hash-map to cache values and the fact that it's a distributed system didn't matter at all.

I think that just about sums up their approach to engineering solutions.
I like this approach. How do you enforce your ban? Is there a mount(8) option for that? Or do you simply avoid these filenames "by hand"? What happens if you untar an archive and it contains filenames with spaces?
Maybe stop government mortgage insurance. It’s nothing but public liability for private gains.
What I found to work for me is keeping myself moving and taking time to reflect on the current situation and actively plan my next steps that I know will benefit me or make me progress in what I care about or find fun. Once I know my general direction I start to build momentum slowly. An easy start is to go for a quick walk every day. No music/podcasts. This will make my body move, get you me of my house and you will give me a moment to think & feel a bit.

There's an even easier way on older Trinitrons - the bulge of the glass is different.

Notice how the left and right sides of the glass are straight vertical lines, and only the top and bottom edges are curved:
https://spectrum.ieee.org/the-consumer-electronics-hall-of-f...

Versus a standard CRT, where all four sides are curved:
https://fineartamerica.com/featured/vintage-tv-scott-chimber...

Of course, the final-gen Trinitons (circa 2000 onward) had truly flat glass, so there was no tell-tale curvature to look for.

And once Sony's patents started expiring, there were competitors like Mitsubishi's Diamondtron displays with glass shaped like Trinitrons. I'm not sure if they had the two horizontal lines like Trinitrons.
I assume the hourly charge is because NAT gateways are just EC2 instances, but they should be able to deploy using t4g instances and the monthly costs should be lowered significantly.
> I heard good things about organically...

The problem is that even if ads don't affect you personally, they affect people around you, and the people who "organically" tell you about stuff just tell you about things they saw in ads.
I hadn't thought about the path itself (I gave it legitimate 15 seconds of thought before commenting lol). It would be not fun to walk through an alley in an unfamiliar place to an unfamiliar location. Additionally, it'd be possible that the path itself is part of the experience if it's a neat way to walk like if there's a cool bridge or nice art.

If you have a sight that you want someone to walk by, I'd think that'd be a "walk though destination" and treat that like other points.
While I am very much in favor of switching over to all-nuclear, all the time, I really wish the emphasis would be on building SMR clusters instead of 1.2GWe reactors that are incapable of passive cooling without a constant electrical supply. We all know about Fukushima; after a a Category 5 hurricane in 1995 a nuclear power station (or was it two?) in Florida were running their primary cooling loops on diesel backups for the better part of two weeks. If they had run out of diesel then what happened at Fukushima would have happened in Florida 17 years earlier.

The additional benefit of SMR clusters is that the cost per unit would come down as more are made and if the production is up and going then the idea of putting in much smaller two or three unit stations throughout the grid, closer to the sources of demand.
I speak only for myself, but the closest thing I've felt to a 'mid-life crisis' (I'm 48 now) is more of a realization that there are a number of life choices that I can no longer make because they simply aren't available to someone at my stage in life. If I dwell on them, I feel a bit sad. I suspect some people try to grab something that serves as a talisman of those lost opportunities and cling to it for a bit, and this is the manifestation of their mid-life crisis.
If you want to use a traditional credit card (inside of Paypal or GPay), your options are currently limited. Shopify has the best implementation of this tech with ShopPay ... if you pay at any Shopify merchant, you have the option for Shopify to remember your digits. This streamlines checkout to a click or two. That's the big USP of models like this - speed of checkout.

I doubt it: it lost its importance before English was established as the world language. E.g., German was still the international scientific language in the early 1900s. And let's not kid ourselves and believe that European countries would have adopted English because it's spoken in, say, India. If sheer numbers were the defining factor, we'd all have adopted some standard Chinese a long time ago.
Not having a big company signed is not inherently bad. Going after small business can be a valid strategy (i.e. Salesforce) but it sounds like there wasn't healthy growth or the right relationships to support this path.

Technically speaking, the engines you are referring to are turbine (not jet). There are two types of turbine engines: turbojets and turboprops. The first ones produce a significant portion of the thrust via jet exhaust (even though high bypass jets are close to prop engines). Even turboprops (like the popular Garrets and PT6's) produce about 10 percent of their thrust through jet exhaust.

To be even more technical, the difference between turbine and piston engines is in the combustion chamber: open combustion in the case of a turbine and closed in the case of a piston.

Finally, there are turbine engines that run just fine on LL100 (leaded avgas). Garrets, for example. One can even mix gas and jet-A in those. It is not recommended to run avgas for more than 1000 hours though due to potential issues with lead deposits. Some military jets engines are designed to run on almost anything combustible except maybe coal dust (I am exaggerating somewhat, of course).
WRT the 'current thing', it's just internet slang for mocking people who go along with trends. Marc also seems to get hold of neologisms very quickly, as with the whole 'wordcel/shape rotator' meme and the informal usage of 'lindy'.

Ask HN: Thoughts on Browser Reader Modes?
Reader modes have become a very important browser feature for me. I can't read an article on the internet these days without them. They allow me to avoid the autoplay videos, newsletter subscription popups, and the other annoying web design trends that plague news and publication websites. Sometimes I can even skip the paywalls!

Here's a low-effort comparison between the readers on Chrome, Firefox, and Edge.

Chrome: Hidden by default, accessible via chrome://flags, a choice of three fonts (Serif, Sans-Serif, and Monospace), white/sepia/dark modes, and a content scale slider. Clearly not a priority for Chrome devs.

Firefox: Accessible by keyboard command (Option+Command+R on Mac), Two fonts only (Serif and Sans-Serif), font size adjustment, white/sepia/dark modes, and independent height and width adjustments for content. You also get a read aloud feature and a Save to Pocket button if happen to use Pocket.

Edge: 3 fonts (Calibri, Sitka and ugh, Comic Sans), text size slider, 3 text column sizes, and a lot more colors for reader theme than just white/sepia/dark. Probably has the most extra features. Access with F9, translation, line focus, grammar tools, and a read aloud that I prefer over Firefox's.

I wouldn't be surprised if data transfer fees as a percentage of their total revenue account for >10%. As long as GCP (standard tier 0.085) and Azure (0.08 non-MS-backhaul standard routing) don't charge extremely lower rates, it's not beneficial to lower their rate.

I don't think anyone is arguing she is not qualified, at least here, but if she is qualified, why did Biden make it all about race and gender which he also did to pick his Vice Presidential running mate? Let Judge Brown stand on her own merits against equally qualified peers. Restricting your search based on race and gender immediately lessens the pool of qualified peers.

Is she qualified? Yes. Was she the most qualified? We won't know because the pool of candidates was restricted to a certain subset of the population.

You cannot fix racism and sexism by using a different kind of racism and sexism. Why did he not pick an Asian woman to be his nominee? We have had two black Supreme Court justices: Clarence Thomas and Thurgood Marshall. We have had no Asian Supreme Court justices.
housing markets aren't disjoint this way. people will consider moving up or down a couple tiers if it makes financial sense (or they don't have a choice). if the market for mansions is particularly tight, you will see rich people start buying condos instead, driving up prices in the midrange. some professionals that would otherwise be targeting those condos will be forced to consider more marginal homes in the low end, moving the price there as well. the same thing can happen in reverse if demand dries up at the high end, but you don't see that as often.
If you are outside of the country-of-origin of the ETF's and Mutual Funds, check the relevant tax laws to understand how each class of investment is treated.

There are plenty of reasons to use Windows. There are more compelling reasons to use Linux for my personal tooling, but I am not the other person. In this case, its a choice of good, better, and best. Personally, I don't care if my car mechanic is a Windows user so long as they can do their job.

If you think Linux protects from viruses, corporate data mining, or more privacy, I suspect you either only use a command-line based browser, are a white-lister with pihole, or are unaware just how actively many utilities are collecting info on you.
Put an exponent in the property tax calculation based on number of properties owned (by individual or business) within a jurisdiction.

ex. taxes are [rate * appraisedValue * 1.1 ^ numPropertiesOwned]

Needs some sort of mechanism to prevent corporations from spinning up subsidiaries to use as a tax shield in these calculations though.

The flight review theatre was AMAZING, it had a huge screen, and the graphics were 3D wireframe - but they had the entire valley modeled and had a huge trackball and they could review the flight scenes in 3D -- this was ~1988/89

It was amazing... but I am not sure if it was backed by SGI, but based on your comment, I believe it would have been.

> Why would somebody want to use it as a primary source of truth?

Not everything is about truth or untruth. Some things are opinions, and some opinions are worse than others. Some are just spam.

Search engines have been absolutely destroyed by blog spam. Look up info on new hardware? Dozens of amazon referral blog spam. Look up information about hobbies? Dozens of blog spam trying to either sell you something or get ad revenue. Look up an obscure thought about something civil in nature? A mix between thousand page government docs that I don't know how to navigate, a few dozen irrelevant "news" articles, and more blog spam.

At least with reddit I can usually find something that is not blog spam, and I'm generally familiar with the biases of various subs. It's far from perfect, but I don't know anything better in the general case.

I'm actually still a Node user! I really like how Deno has been innovating this space though and it's come a long way in the last couple of years so I'm looking forward to making the switch at some point. Even if I never do for some reason (most likely node API specific libraries) it has really given Node some reasons to innovate in a few places and I love Deno for that as well.
I think it's pretty reasonable to require vaccination as a condition for participating in some settings. Office settings being one of them.

> This practice makes even less sense when we make PRs that once merged are squashed into one commit

Up until the point of merging, other developers reviewing the PR can see your development path, and optionally examine individual commits. In GitHub at least, these individual commits usually make their way into the squashed commit's comments as a bulleted list of changes (after some cleanup), which encourages better final commit messages in general.
