I really hope this passes, just so we can see how stupid defining these things in legislature. This should be decided by employers, not politicians. If employers have too much power then you have a monopoly problem and you should do something about it, not rake small businesses over the coals.

I would love a 4 day work week, but only if it meant my job is secure. This is the worst way to go about it.

To be fair, a good portion of these urban dwellers are in one of like three cities in the US, and are vastly outnumbered by suburbanites. Or they're in Europe, which makes them pretty much irrelevant to US politics.

I guess I don't blame them for thinking about it a lot, since in a particular niche circumstance it is probably disruptive and worth worrying about. But for those of us living in suburban cities, it's really not something on the radar.
Pixi.js has been a lifesaver for generating interactive art/data pieces since the death of AS3, which used to be my main bag. I remember messing around with HaXe ten years ago or so, the main problem being most of the fl. graphics APIs were not ported at that time and the idea of rewriting my own GUIs and game engines built on those didn't make much sense. I'm not sure it does now, either. If this had a 1:1 naming system, e.g. Sprite and Graphics and Stage, I'd be all in. But so much of my 2D game code was based on extending Starling atlases, etc. and now that's all dead. I'd be afraid to invest the time needed to port it to a relatively exotic and not so well known framework... which still requires a well maintained VM to run.

There's a fairly simple solution to the issue of excessive noise from neighbours in apartments: have rules for when noise can be made and when noise cannot be made, and enforce them with fines/eviction.
Mito looks very cool! Looking forward to trying it.

The blending of spreadsheets and notebooks seems inevitable. One trend notebook-as-program. I've heard several variations of this: "The data scientists give us a notebook, and our automation runs the notebook to do <ML thing> on <our internal data sets>". It's clunky to use a format initially intended for interactive visual use for headless automation, but there's a practical wisdom to sticking with whatever format the data scientists prefer. Twenty years ago, I saw the same sort of thing with engineers and spreadsheets.

The one thing notebooks lose, though, is data flow computing. That's a major strength of spreadsheets, and the imperative execution of notebook cells seems like a step backwards. Although I'm sure somebody has bolted some kind of inter-cell dependency execution onto Jupyter by this point.

> In a study of Parkdale Village in Toronto, a quarter of business owners estimated that over half their customers drove to their business – in reality, just 4 percent drive.

Come on, Parkdale is just behind Little Portugal and near Dufferin Mall, all very walkable areas, how is this a surprise? Repeat the study w/ Yorkdale Mall near highway 401 and those car numbers will shoot through the roof.

The reality is that areas closer to downtown that are a hassle to park at will attract downtown folks and more suburban areas with big parking lots will attract suburban folks with cars.

What's the point of cherrypicking one area and try to draw general conclusions about parking from that?

Show HN: tmux.nvim – turning Neovim into a terminal multiplexer
I'm one of those people. I LOVE being able to go anywhere I want, when I want. I'm willing to pay for the privilege. Do you know what happens when you take away parking and make it difficult for me to bring myself (and lets be honest what really matters--my money) to a place? I stop going. If you make it difficult for me to get to where I want to go I read that as a rejection of ME, and I don't go places where I'm not wanted. My money and my car will go somewhere else. I'm not going to fight with people online about it, I'll just abandon those spaces.
> Spreadsheets are better because as you say the owner is their job to maintain it. If you replace with an IT process the new "owner" is likely a below-average developer that probably is uninterested in the business.

I disagree. Spreadsheets are incomparably worse because what you charitably described as "the owner is their job to maintain it" in real life it's reflected as having a single employee who abused a first-move advantage to monopolize and excerpt unduly control over, and even hijack, key operation areas.

We all heard horror stories of how employees screwed over their former bosses because only they had control over things like key spreadsheets. Advocating for spreadsheets is advocating for these vulnerabilities.
As someone who has bicycled most of my life in Scandinavia, neither pouring rain or -15 degrees are much of a problem. You are dressed for the weather and you soon don’t even think about it. The only reason that I stopped bicycling in the winters for a while was because the car drivers tend to become “bicycle blind” when it’s snow on the ground. I’ve had drivers stare right at me and then almost hitting me because they obviously didn’t understand what they saw (a bicycle in the middle of the winter).

I don’t understand why you think you need to bring 20 kg of stuff every day. That is what I carry for a several day camping trip.
Ask HN: Did you change jobs during the Great Reshuffling and regret it?
The Great Resignation or the Great Reshuffling pretty much started in 2021 and is still going very strong today. It's hard not to feel like you could be missing out if you don't take the opportunity now to pursue a better job, especially one with better pay and work-from-home arrangements. That's how I felt as my coworkers started moving on to better roles, and when the recruiters started hitting me on LinkedIn, I decided to pay attention. Now a month into my new job, I feel like a traitor and sell-out. I had a long tenure at my previous role and had life pretty easy. I can't help but feel that the current wave of job changing is fueled by hype and greed, and honestly I do not think that companies deserve to be screwed by all this turnover. While I am confident I can do fine in my new role, I have a nagging disappointment about contributing to this current trend.
"Plenty of high-IQ people with emotional issues who do not do as well in living a happy and productive life. For example, figuring out what careers are both plausible and reasonably rewarding (financially and otherwise) is not actually an intellectually difficult one"

It's not so easy. For example, what fraction of high school students who are good at math know what an actuary is? They have likely heard of doctors, nurses, and lawyers, but what is a management consultant? I've read that there is still a strong tendency for children to follow the careers of their parents. Part of it is genetics (doctors' kids are more likely to have the IQ to be a doctor than kids in general), but part of it is just having those careers on your radar screen.
I know less about Thomas than Paw Patrol (and I don't know that much about Paw Patrol), but I know enough to know Hatt's opinion about engines:

“We'll see about that, engines on My Railway do as they are told”

"My engines do not tell lies! They work hard with no shirking. I send lazy engines away!"

That sounds pretty authoritarian, with final power in a single individual.

Point taken. Those paws still uphold the law, and not everyone voluntarily agrees to follow those laws.

If you're grumpy now, you might want to avoid a discussion of what "voluntary" means on Sodor. If Toby has no chance of employment elsewhere, then what what happens if he doesn't meet Hatt's requirements for hard work?
In recent years, some decisions from the NLRB are leaning in the direction of multiple unions: https://laborblog.vorys.com/2014/07/articles/nlrb/how-many-u...

The idea is that different kinds of workers could be in different unions. A department store might have, for example, cosmetics specialists, tailors, accounting staff and so on; and these groups are distinct enough, from the NLRB's perspective, to have their own unions.
Understood. But they should be reduced in power, tilted downwards, and still operating on frequencies further from the ones used by radar altimeters.

Even if they are still present, they shouldn't be a significant risk.

In Michigan we've got a Walmart style set of stores known as Meijer's. After Target built a small style grocery store in East Lansing Meijer's created one in downtown Lansing near the Capitol. Neither city had a grocery downtown in over fifty years. Locals just accepted you had to drive out to the suburbs to shop.

Both stores appear to have a very strong business. So why doesn't either company create one in downtown Detroit where the demand would be a multiple of that in Lansing and East Lansing?

There is a problem with hemispherical habitats that is often overlooked. There are two forces at play - air pressure acts up trying to lift the skin of the habitat of the ground. This must be opposed by anchoring the habitat to the ground, the force of which acts downward.

The problem is that the first force scales with the surface area enclosed (or even volume - I'm not sure as I can't find the reference at the moment), while the second one scales with the circumference. So r^2 versus r. This gives a fundamental limit on how big hemispherical habitats can be.

Malls are dying off. Maybe that's why.

We managed to save our local mall before it completely died, and now it thrives. They turned it mostly inside out, there's still halls inside but all of the popular stores now face outward so you can park right in front of them.
In all of these cases the "AI" is assessing some features of the patient scans and history to reach it's conclusions.

Why isn't the method ("algorithm") made clear and presented to actual human experts so they can incorporate it in their diagnostic routines?

I'm sorry to be cynical, but all I've seen so far from "medical AI" is spurious correlational relationships in data, sometimes even in noise, presented as a causal deterministic predictions.

What I read from statistics, 100 years ago, in US most people where poor, but exists very few extremely wealthy humans; after science-tech revolution and two wars in 1940s, in US appear large middle class.

And (this is from talks) latest 10s years, middle class divide again, so there are more people with more than million, but also more people from middle class switched to poor.

Probably, the same happen with small game dev entrepreneurs - 10 years ago, I myself have seen significant number of successful people, but after that, I see, some people remain successful, but others become ordinary.

I suppose it depends on the particular city block size, but we use angled parking and certainly get a lot more than 10 cars in a given block.

Yeah, a work/shop/live area near me instituted paid parking 5 years ago, after 25 years of being free. It had some serious negative effects on business and they rolled back the paid hours to just weekdays and just 9-5 for the garages, but it still has not recovered. Many of the businesses have moved out, although others have moved in. Some customers just park in the nearest free spots, clogging up other commercial or residential parking, and walk.

It's been 5 years and places are still closing as their leases expire. The place never really recovered and people are still complaining about it.

I think it’s important to understand what the author means by “software engineering research”. If I understand it correctly, he means research about the discipline of software engineering, not the output of engineering. So research on analyzing agile and waterfall approaches would be “software engineering research”, a programming languages paper would not be. A paper on whether static typing reduces defects is a grey area to me—-I think it’s SE research, but I’m not sure.

It’s clear that there’s been lots of progress in technology: in networking, in databases, in compilers, etc. It’s just that none of that was substantially influenced by research on the process of software engineering.
Maybe not, because (a) each union can still aggregate the interests of hundreds or thousands of workers and (b) it's much easier for a few unions to collaborate with each other than for hundreds or thousands of individual workers to do so.

This depends, of course, on how exactly the new unions are allowed to form. It seems unlikely that the NLRB would implement policy in a way that allows dozens of unions, each with a handful of workers; but I guess if that happened, it would end up just like what you're saying.
> I do not think that companies deserve to be screwed by all this turnover

Perhaps companies should better look after their employees and give them a reason not to leave. Many of us are fed up of being underpaid and undervalued. Add to that the increasing demands to return to an office and it's not hard to see why we're jumping ship to work for businesses that pay better and offer remote working arrangements.

I changed jobs almost a year ago and have zero regrets. I had a long tenure too. What did it get me? Maybe a 2-4% raise a year if I was lucky (which we all know is a pay cut in disguise when you consider inflation). None of us should feel that we have to be loyal to a business. That same business would lay you off in a heartbeat if it would save them money.

Consider reading the article.

This is built on Bitcoin. There is no other token.
> But can I gently suggest separating the opinion out from the facts? As an exercise, you might try moving your opinion to a section at the end and limiting the rest of the article to neutrally reporting facts.

Thanks for your kind words. :) I see what you mean, but I don't think there's such a thing as an unbiased text. What we chose to talk and focus is already biased. And that's OK. What seems odd, in my opinion, is pretending we're impartial when in fact we simply can't -- the press, for instance. It doesn't imply, as you said, that by being biased we're adding false information.

> Yes, there are still some inconsistencies with GTK3 and GTK4+Libadwaita, but that is expected, if you update your toolkit from one major version to another.

My main point with this article is criticizing a final release with all these issues. Worse than that: pretending it's a good product when in fact it's worse than previous versions in many objective ways.

> Sure there are maybe some bugs and/or leftovers from the GTK3-GTK4 transition, but same as above, it will be fixed sometime.

> systemd is standard for linux

It's not standard. It's just the most popular because people are lazy and keep imitating each other. Although it seems fine to have systemd as an option, it's ridiculous to have it as a hard dependency.

Apart from distros that ship Epiphany browser, what else do distros use WebKit2Gtk for?

> But calling it "dubious" is not that appropriate, as they always have a sense.

It's dubious because it's a huge library that takes 1 hour to build and all this just for one silly feature. And again: there's no official way to simply not have it.

> GDM isn't coupled to systemd AFAIK

Just take a look at GDM meson build script and you'll see:
systemd_dep = dependency('systemd')
libsystemd_dep = dependency('libsystemd')

The fact that you're running it on a non-systemd distro is probably due to an unofficial patch (just like the one I applied in Slackware/Porteus).
