I watched your first video. As someone who likes the idea of Vim and has learned many of the keyboard shortcuts, my impression of the video was "Debugging in Neovim is quite simple. Just remember these 35 keyboard shortcuts."
"Cyclists flagrantly violating traffic laws" is probably one of the most prevalent anti-bike rhetoric tools used by drivers to justify ill behavior towards cyclists.

So, I can absolutely understand a cyclist getting upset with another for flagrantly violating a traffic law. It's unfortunate that this is where this situation has evolved to, but I think it's a lot more understandable (and nuanced) than "cyclist wasn't car-ing hard enough."
yes, but it is way to broad. hosting service ranges are blocked even though individual servers have static IPs. it is possible to get an IP unblocked, but then someone else blocks another range with that IP again. it's impossible to keep up.

the problem with accounts is that the editing history is public, making it impossible to keep even a pseudo-anonymous identity because everyone would know who i am based on what i edit.

didn't jimmy wales himself say that the editing and viewing history is sensitive personal data?

i don't mind wikipedia itself knowing my identity, just like i don't mind hackernews admins knowing who i am, but i'd like wikipedia to help me keep my identity hidden from the public.
I think if NATO backed Lithuanian agents hadnt tried to foment an independence movement in Kaliningrad then Russia might feel a little more confident that NATO's long term goal wasnt the Balkanization of Russia.

If Russia does get trounced in this war and Ukraine joins NATO I would expect suspiciously well funded independence movements to start popping up in Russia. This conflict wont stop at their borders.

It'll stop and we'll finally lose interest when Russia breaks into 16 different poverty stricken polities.
It's also a lie because "everything" on reddit is still not in fact searchable; buried in the comments on the announcement post, they admit that pre-2020 comments are still not indexed:

STOP WITH THE MINIMALISM. I don't want my laptop to have _the least amount of features_, I want it to have _as many features as makes it useful to me_. These are not fashion accessories, these are life productivity machines. I need 4 USB-A/C ports (at least 2 that are 3.x and fast-charging), an Ethernet jack in the back (not in the way on the side), a lid that doesn't get stuck at 120 degrees, fans in the back, a monitor port (preferably in the back out of the way), a hard drive light, separate volume buttons, 14-16" screen that isn't crap, headphone jack, and easy to upgrade RAM and hard drive.

Laptops these days are RIDICULOUS, poorly-designed, wanna-be Jony Ive slabs that look pretty and are frustrating. We had good designs years ago! What happened?! They've gotten hard to use unless you're a coffee-shop blogger, they used to be easy from kitchen-table user to weekend coder.
>For example, if you are a cyclist who has to stop at a red ligh

Just to be clear, this law does not change the requirement for bicyclists to stop at red lights. Red lights become stop signs, stop signs become yield signs.

https://www.bicycling.com/culture/a32257789/vehicular-cyclin...

published some stats back in the 1980s that pointed to remarkable high risks from hitting pedestrians, parked cars, other bicycles, dogs, and everything other than the fantasy cyclists have that a driver is going to crash into them from behind either from obliviousness or as a hate crime. (My worst bicycle accident was when I was riding in a thunderstorm at 1 am had no visibility and hit a parked car.)

He was influenced by the dangerous bike lanes of San Luis Obispo and experiences in California and the Northeast.

More recent statistics seem to show that drivers in the U.S. South are astonishingly bad and really do crash into cyclists from behind.
As some others have pointed out, this is very basic stuff, but a good introduction. I have found this series of blog posts [0] as a super useful explanation of ECC that starts with the basics but covers the math and underlying group theory well, building up to an intermediate-level understanding of the matter.

for those who made that decision recently, what ebook reader did you get? i am quite torn between: kindle, i-pad, and e-ink devices (remarkable 2, boox note air 2, kobo elipsa, quaderno.)

i heard e-inks are good on your eyes, which is always good. kindles would not support uploading your own PDFs or taking notes on them. the quaderno looks fantastic but quite big (i like a book-sized device). the remarkable 2 wants you to subscribe to services...

so, have you got one of these recently? which one?

This paper is scientific evidence. What it really sounds like is for some strange reason you don't want this to be true. Put in the effort yourself, read the study, and tell us all why this paper is bs.
I can't tell if this is meant in jest or seriously, please could you point to a source for your claim that there is data analyzed by people who've studied the problem? (Genuinely asking - I'd love to visualize the data).

Instead of computing nA = A + A + … + A you can use the “exponentiation” by squaring trick: nA = (n/2)A + (n/2)A + (n%2)A. It takes logarithmically many steps.
I get out of sorts when other cyclists break the law. How can we cyclists ask drivers to obey the law, to protect us, if we won't even do it ourselves?

It’s a classic trope in these conversations: “I’m an avid cyclist, but…”
You're not making the office sound any better with these "just do it yourself bro" arguments. They can do that at home. If they're not even trying to make the office a place people want to be at, then just stop.

"Why do people want to stay WFH when we don't provide incentives for them to come to the office?" "Gee Bob I don't know."
Yeah no one has had to fear retribution for speaking against conservatives; oh wait here in my community they were driving around targeting “leftists” and minorities.

Sorry but by continuing to deflect and project to spare your pride, and cling to traditional political divisions is … words like left and right in the context of politics mean nothing to me. You may as well be speaking in tongues. “Colorless green ideas sleep furiously.” is what it all feels like to me.

I’m not saying you have to customize for my sensibilities; I’m saying I’m not customizing myself for yours. Dem or Rep they’re just one of seven billion to me. I give neither platform special consideration and focus on the politician individually.

Free people who would manage their own affairs do not set aside management of those affairs in deference to aristocrats and parties controlled by their wealth.

Had the same for some time after (first round of) mild covid.

Not the usual steady tone tinnitus either.. almost like a loose wire sending a very specific frequency in one ear.

Spontaneously resolved after 4 months or so, no recurrence with a second round of covid.
Completely unrelated to the thread, but the graphic on your home page doesn't quite re-size correctly, at least in the latest version of Firefox. It blocks the star button at i'd say tablet -> desktop range (somewhere between full width and not quite tablet)

if you go smaller, it does at certain sizes block a bit of the text.

tl;dr it doesn't look like the main graphic on your home page handles fluid layouts

EDIT: this goes with a few other graphics on the front page as well.

I also noticed some of your copy doesn't read well grammatically. "For Developer" I think reads better as "For Developers", as an example.

Only mentioning this cause this is a really cool concept that I wish I had thought of years ago when I worked more heavily with databases and want you to succeed! One of the reasons ORMs are "nice" is the built in schema migration of a lot of the most mature ones (coming from .NET and previously Django). This is a similar idea, but for teams that need high performance SQL optimizations to be able to change schema that may be written against "raw" SQL / Window functions etc.
"Getting that 0.75 acres to turn over is exactly the point. Incentivizing them to leave (or better yet: subdivide and sell the land) is good for society."

I doubt the affected person feels it's good. Quite frankly, the land value tax ideas seem absurd to me. It's just another redistribution scheme - work hard, retire, get forced off your land via tax. It seems it's the government's and everyone else's desire to just drain people until they have nothing. Make other's lives harder to make your own easier, seems to be the motto of today. It feels like mob rule to me.
I don't particularly agree with the grandparent that getting rid of pointer-to-integer casts makes sense, but at least the specific question you're asking doesn't seem like a non-starter. Two options that come to mind immediately would be making a union { intptr_t; foo * } well-defined; or adding a 'p' or 'ptr' literal suffix so 0x80004000p has type void *.
Interesting. I have mild tinnitus but my hearing is perfect (was tested)

It's clear that the writer is very passionate about this topic. I didn't realize that the idea was for the RPG to get stuck in the bar.

Only if he intends to through with it. Without making any claims; it is in the realms of possibility that a pissed off billionaire would intentionally tank the stock price of a company whose board offended them and make a small profit, or small loss (relatively), depending on the spread of shares he'd already bought. Even if the stock price doesn't tank, they'd spin wheels for weeks, while mired in busywork.
I agree with you; I've noticed the same thing. It seems many niche or small markets are being abandoned in favor of the larger ones.
The solution that’s never on the table is getting rid of most stop signs.

The main point of a stop sign is to control intersections that objectively need the stop to permit safe traffic flow.

We are instead seeing unwarranted stop signs proliferate like rabbits, justified by things they can’t do, like slow or calm traffic.

On top of that, we’re ignoring the problems _caused by_ unwarranted stop signs, including crashes that wouldn’t otherwise happen, increased noise, increased pollution (especially small particles in the stop sign’s vicinity), higher speeds that are induced after the stop sign (drivers make up for time lost at the stop), and the broader consequences of reducing credibility of traffic regulations overall (people aren’t stupid, and when they are conditioned to that stop signs are mostly pointless, the conditioning bleeds over to the whole regime of traffic regulations).

Stop engineering malpractice, ditch most stop signs, and problem solved!
I lost my hearing in one ear 9 years ago when I was 15 as the result of an illness. I could get a CI but choose not to. Honestly, being deaf in one ear has barely affected me. There are some situations (if it is a loud environment and the person is on my left) where I struggle to hear people and I cannot tell the direction sound is coming from but I do not find this has a major impact on my life.

Personally I am concerned that a CI would not improve my quality of life and may even make it worse. My understanding is that the hearing from a cochlear implant is not the same as "normal" hearing so I worry it may effect my current experience in a negative way.

Speak to the doctor but I would personally be a bit cautious about it, especially if your daughter is not at an age where she can properly communicate her experience of hearing with you.
> More recent statistics seem to show that drivers in the U.S. South are astonishingly bad and really do crash into cyclists from behind.

Yes, I stopped road biking because of them. I'd deliberately stay in the shoulder (just right of the white line) and they'd swerve into the shoulder next to me. At times they also crossed into the oncoming traffic lane to fuck with me. Not a pleasant experience to share the road with those morons.
I don’t use Reddit in the sense that I have an account, instead I go through teddit.net using a privacy redirect browser extension, this lets me bypass their redesign by using a different front end.
And once I'm dead, broke, or have simply moved on from the tech universe?

The ephemerality of the thing is the issue I'm speaking to. We've lost something here.

The requirement for books to last is physical space, and those shelves and boxes continue to exist far longer than the publishers, authors, illustrators, etc. We don't have that with this medium (except, of course, archive.org which is excellent and not nearly enough). We've built something that's lighter than books and easier to store in smaller spaces, but we've [collectively] given no thought to maintaining a proper archive.

The freedom to publish to the world in an instant is as magical as it is fleeting. On a longer scale of time - and not a very long one - it's practically worthless.
Right - in most of the country our infrastructure and laws exist to basically only serve cars (most notably the idea of "jaywalking"). Glad steps are being taken in the interest of non-car transportation options.

> "VCs are sheep. They don't take risks."

They have jobs and customers just like anyone else, even though many of them don't like to frame things that way. Every fund's prospectus talks about the GPs' philosophy, thesis and focus; every LP talks about their appetite for risk.

The more significant difference I have observed, especially over the last 25 years, is that west coast investors are more afraid of missing out on upside, while investors elsewhere (US east coast, Europe, much of SE Asia except some chinese funds) are more worried about the downside. This makes the west coast more dynamic (more eagerness for a deal, more willingness to get into a deal with less onerous terms or lower percentage) than elsewhere. Also I've found east coast investors far more transactional. These are gross generalizations (I can easily point to exceptions to my own statement) but are generally true in my experience.

Edit: It's missing out on upside that looks like "sheep" reaction. Someone may have a good idea for a product and identify an underserved market. You may like that sector but perhaps you don't like the team, or you can't get into the deal but you can get into a deal with someone else who has a different way to address the sector. That isn't necessarily a "fashion" issue (though sadly it sometimes is). Look at it in retrospect: there weren't integrated circuit startups in 1950 but there were a a few in the 50s and very many in the 70s. Would anyone today consider that "sheep" behavior?

BTW I have no desire to defend the VC industry, but these are what I see.
> you are also making assumptions about the parent commenter having an animosity

Not so. The OP comes right out and says this,

> As it is bicycle activists seem to think everybody is responsible for the safety of cyclists except the cyclists.

Which is wrong, shitty, and straight up victim blaming.
lol!

Point taken.
I find the whole "you go" thing annoying too. Someone in a vehicle can simply modulate their acceleration pedal and be out of there in a few seconds. Getting out of an intersection with a bike isn't as quick.
I don't think any one thing sums up America. But having lived on 4 continents, I'd say the "get rich by doing nothing" thing is unusually common and unusually accepted in America. Historian Walter McDougall wrote a whole book on the American duality of "hustle", meaning both an energy for making things happen and scamming somebody. And he wrote that well before the recent rise of "hustle culture".

You could also look at American pyramid scheme pioneers like Amway and Herbalife, both of which I consider scams. Or our huge manipulation culture of the sort potrayed in Glengarry Glen Ross or Mad Men. Or the way that scammer/marketing energy merged with Protestantism to create both the tent revival and now the megachurch.
> You seem to have mistaken me for an invasion supporter.

No I didn't think that. But it did seem to me that you thought this invasion wasn't a mistake on Russia's end.

> My view is that Russia, mainly at Putin's instigation, has perpetrated a catastrophic mistake.

So I wrongly interpreted your previous post. We basically agree on this one. So I don't consider you an idiot ;).

> I think it's plausible to claim that Putin's ministers and generals are afraid to tell him anything he doesn't want to hear. That doesn't make him stupid or mad.

I think it's here were we differ. He should know better as to how reliable the info is that he gets. If he punishes bad news, he should be smart enough to know that people will not tell him bad news. I call that idiotic.

> making accurate predictions about what might happen next, are much improved

I agree with you on this one. Maybe my "lunatic" was not well chosen, and should be replaced with "psychopath". Because only a psychopath kills or poisons political opposition.
But it's perfectly doable to predict an idiot's actions.

For the most part I think we actually agree with each other, it's just the wording that might differ.

It seems Putin was living in his own fantasy land for quite a while. And now that he's getting hit with reality, I sure hope he's sane enough to understand certain consequences.
I vaguely remember a car ad, think it was Honda, and the crux was that trucks hate cars, cars hate cyclists and cyclists hate pedestrians. I can't rememeber but, maybe , pedestrians hate all of the above?

In other words, it's bullying. Today I was delayed by a lone cyclist, I didn't risk his life or risk hitting another car to get past him. I just accepted that he has the same right to be on the road as I do. I got home a few minutes later than I would have done otherwise and saved the same few minutes not being bored with nothing else to do.

I used to ride my bicycle to work most days. I like to ride. I am all for "a bicycle is a vehicle", but I still think this adjustment makes sense.

Being able to treat a stoplight like a stop sign is great. It's pretty common for stoplight sensors to not detect bicycles. It's also common for polite folks in cars to stop far enough behind a bicycle that their cars don't get sensed. It's not a good feeling to sit on the sensor loop, watching the walk lights cycle and reset, knowing that if you don't run a red or walk out of the intersection, you'll be stuck.

As for treating a stop sign like a yield sign, I agree with a lot of other posters who come citing sources: bicycles move slower and are at a lot of risk from cars coming up from behind. It's not about the extra effort to get started (though in a hilly place, I could see that being a problem for some riders).

As a cyclist, bike safety is hard. You're squishable and very aware of it, surrounded by big, fast, solid cars whose drivers often aren't paying close attention.

As a driver, bike safety is hard. A lot of drivers get weird around bikes (e.g., they yield the right-of-way when they shouldn't). Cyclists often aren't well-trained in the rules of the road. And the rules of the road often force bikes and cars to intersect in ways that aren't ideal.

So I think making it clear that yes, bikes are vehicles, but making a few exceptions to improve safety by reducing the chance of bicycles getting unintentionally hit from behind--seems like a win to me!
