Agreed. The title of the post is misleading. A strict restriction of sodium versus usual care (a recommended low sodium diet) was tested. There was no benefit to a strict low sodium diet. As a cardiologist, it doesn't not change my advice regarding usual care -- recommending a low sodium diet in patient with heart failure.
>> f22 and f35 have less than 5 seconds of ammo

That's one of the big challenges, isn't it? If an enemy catches a flight of F-35s / F-22s with enough numbers the result could be devastating. And the big limitation of stealth aircraft is payload. Have them carry more, on external hardpoints, and they loose stealth. Have them maintain stealth means carrying less. Having too large internal bays makes them useless as fighters. Quite a fascinating conundrum there.

Let the market decide, there's a labor shortage. It may not be a bad idea but to make it a law is crazy.
For smaller teams/projects I like to have as much of tracking requirements as possible as code because of how hard it is to keep anything written down in natural language up to date and having a useful history of it.

I really like end-to-end tests for this, because it tests the system from a user perspective, which is how many requirements are actually coming in, not how they are implemented internally. I also like to write tests for things that can't actually break indirectly. But it makes it so that someone who changes e.g. some function and thus breaks the test realizes that this is an explicit prior specification that they are about to invalidate and might want to double check with someone.
Because of the war in Ukraine people in the US aren't hearing as much about what is going on with Chinese real estate these days. TLDR: There is enough vacant housing in China to house Spain. Prices are going to drop, probably.

People have been saying there was a bubble in Chinese real estate for ten or twenty years and all that time prices have been going up in ways that are probably at least sustainable based on a growing economy.

I think the biggest movements of overvaluation are like Chinese real estate where people over pay, but the underlying value is still going up so you can keep justifying overpaying for years. Probably GE was like that for a long time. Now I think Tesla has been over valued for a long time (maybe not-- just take it as an example) but it's hard to argue it is over valued because at the same time the price appreciates the value of the underlying thing is also growing.

In a sense you are both right, you just don't set the threshold at the same place.

The bank will look at how much you earn and how much you owe and say "We can pre-approve you for $X at Y%". They consider that you can pay that rate and they are most likely right.

Now if you do take $X, you have effectively leveraged your entire earnings, which for most people is a pretty bad idea because stuff happens and you can end up with a mortgage you can't pay because turns out you also want a car.

That being said (at least in Canada), your broker won't really let you take the full bank offers, or at least they don't expect you to do it.
Jesus, despite his inartful way of expressing it, all he is saying is look around for more recent Florensis bones, and don't be surprised if you find they survived until relatively modern times. He is also implying that the oral/myth communication protocols of many societies will work across many millenia, as has been documented about indigenous people's stories about tsunamis, earthquakes, and meteorite impacts that happened many thousands of years ago. An island like Flores where modern hominids have lived continually for ~25-50K years or longer is a prime spot for those features to come together.
As a junior dev, this isn't your job.

Your job is to do what is being asked of you and not screw it up too much.

If they wanted to track requirements, they'd already track them.

People have very fragile egos - if you come in as a junior dev and start suggesting shit - they will not like that.

If you come in as a senior dev and start suggesting shit, they'll not like it, unless your suggestion is 'how about I do your work for you on top of my work, while you get most or all of the credit'.

That is the only suggestion most other people are interested in.

Can you name anything notable in Rust besides firefox internals off the top of your head? swhkd comes to mind in light of recent CVE series..

It looks like fans like Rust, but not many people actually want to use it, so they rewrite random stuff, so maybe others will notice it somehow and start using it.
Your logic is not wrong, but I think the part you are omitting is that most managers really do not know how to manage. In most companies nobody REALLY has a good feel for how much work someone should get done in a given amount of time, or what fair compensation would actually be. This puts us into the mode of "pay the minimum amount we can, and then try to extract maximum work product".

If an employee is measurably unproductive for a few hours regularly, then the assumption is that their manager has failed somehow. I agree that this is most likely not an accurate conclusion, but it is a prevalent one.
Key points from this review of The Restless Republic by Anna Keay:

1. Very few people tuck very neatly into one historical ‘age’ or another” — one only has to trace the successful early careers of Restoration figures such as Pepys and Christopher Wren back into the 1650s to appreciate this

2. What may be a casual observation about other periods of history is of tremendous importance in understanding the Interregnum, which was consigned to official oblivion the moment the restored Charles II post-dated the start of his reign to his father’s death

3. Far from the dour, militaristic regimes of popular imagination, life under the Commonwealth and Oliver Cromwell’s Protectorate emerges as innovative and exciting: the effect of the hitherto unimaginable act of abolishing the monarchy and House of Lords after years of transformative conflict being to unleash an energetic spirit of ambitious experimentation and industry

4. The complicated Civil Wars of the 1640s, and the 11 years of constitutional experiments that followed, have struggled to capture the attention of a wider public living happily on a diet of Hitler and the Tudors and content with Britain’s neat national story of kings and queens stretching along the schoolchild’s wooden ruler

5. But what is more striking is the strong current of forgiveness and future-proofing civility from all sides: the Parliamentarians were “remarkably unvindictive” in government, as was Charles II on his return
It points to there being some pressure, probably from the public. But like police officers who get fired only to be rehired the next town over she now has a even more prestigious position in government. So there is no actual accountability here, just theater.
Javelins are designed to be used for more than destroying armor, it has other selectable operating modes. They are being used by the Ukrainians against non-armor vehicles and as direct-fire weapons (US infantry uses this mode a lot). It also has a mode for helicopters.

Yes air travel is subsidized, and if you look up ground transportation it's even worse. The Fed pays for insanely huge amounts of motor vehicle infrastructure for which ground shippers barely pay a small portion relative to their resource usage and negative externalities.

But are they making money because the bubble keeps growing or because the companies they invested in turned profitable?

I believe it's the former, but haven't done any analysis to back up that assumption.
This is also true of several of the categories they named. Cars, bikes, kitchen appliances, notebooks: none of those are heirlooms, most won't last more than a few years of regular use. But all of those domains value aesthetics a lot more than computer hardware. Another explanation is necessary.
>>>I would say these are all games and have little value but what do I know.

The US and UK militaries use the licensed version of Command: Modern Operations to do wargaming / modeling & simulation. For ~$20,000/copy it mostly lets the end user edit/update the database (probably to incorporate classified capabilities/performance envelopes). The game has a ton of references for its radar/EMS and physics models. It's probably the best and most accessible military simulation on the open market.

I have some ideas about writing adversarial AIs for it to sell to the military but I'm too swamped with other stuff.
> In a recent previous thread here on HN I was roundly criticised for saying that due-date driven management is not effective, but that’s what scrum has become, and todays thread is exactly what I was thinking about.

Do you have any recommendations for scenarios where there are due dates? I work in a field that is largely focused around dates that aren't really negotiable; the school year ends and starts and school budgeting decisions have to be made at a certain time, so if we're rolling out certain features, they really do need to be available in, e.g., August when school starts.
It feels like a lot of money, but I'd point out that even venture's blockbuster 2021 year, where it raised ~$128B in funding, is still far less money than Apple's ~$202B and Google's ~$169B cash on hand. Those are single companies.
How many hours do you work? Are you overly strictly monitored? Does your employer facilitate actually using your vacation time? Do you feel comfortable taking sick days? Do you have oppressive housing, health care, student loan, family illness, or other expenses that constantly put you on the financial edge? Do you make enough money to save for retirement? Are you able to have a relatively short commute? Have you been lucky enough to not have any significant cognitive or mental/physical health difficulty that make normal things drastically more difficult? Do you live in a dangerous neighborhood? Have family difficulties?

Patting yourself on the back for having a better outcome when you're not even curious about the context says more about you than them.
I would refrain from using the word “obvious” since many things we believe to obvious are non-obvious to others. Better to explain your point clearly and with greater detail.

The point I was making is that it’s too easy for us not to consider the implications to average or poor people of the proposals we make. It’s not that it’s the main point, but we also must not trivialize errors.

The only NATO tank with a rifled cannon is the Challenger 2. The Brits preferred HEASH ammo, a rifled cannon improved accuracy. It took some development to get HEAT and SABOTs that can be fired from a rifled cannon. No idea what the Russian tanks are using.

Here is, for example, a post by unabashed Russian nationalist, in support of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, blaming “Western Supremacist (…) miscreants” for the blood being spilled:

https://akarlin.substack.com/p/happening-the-ukraine-war-202...

One of his previous posts is his analysis of the (then, upcoming) war, its context, and causes.

Of course, you need to take it with an open pit sized block of salt — eg he predicted that the Russia will most likely conquer Ukraine in less than a week. This, needless to say, turned to be laughably wrong, and makes rest of his analysis rather questionable.

The point is, however, that you are unlikely to see this sort of unabashed (indeed, proud) and undistorted Russian perspective elsewhere in western media sphere — indeed, I wouldn’t be surprised if this comment got downvoted for “spreading Russian propaganda”. Myself, I think it is extremely important to understand the perspective and motivation of the enemy, so that you can predict their movements and effectively prevent or resist them.
The second Nazi's, militant cop-killer proponents, and child porn enthusiasts start publishing on Substack, we'll see how "pro free speech" they are.
Since you say it’s “not that simple”, do you truly believe it’s out of the reach of the Russian govt. to punish this company or the members of it for stepping out of line? They’re a large company in tech but how about their resources for personnel security, or what if they’ve been ordered to do so legally?

Let’s go beyond that. Let’s say that Yandex has been spreading propaganda on purpose for multiple years. That’s every other search engine too. Especially Google! If Russia or China wins a conflict, or begins one economically, do the employees of Google deserve to be punished for their work during this time? When you use logic and apply the same logic to the situation in reverse, it’s quite apparent that you have a bias, and that bias isn’t serving you well.
The companies aren't the ones who need continued access to cheap capital. It's the investors holding valuations at high multiples.

I agree that the induced currents in infrastructure are the biggest risk since they have the least protection (both man-made and geomagnetic).

"Your hard drive lying unconnected in the sun, will feel like it's raining lots of very tiny magnets. It will respond with a tiny surface current, but that would be it. This should not erase the data."

I don't necessarily agree with this. There is a variety of radiation emitted during solar events. Most of the higher energy radiation that would cause corruption (above uvb) is protected against by the atmosphere and magnetic fields. However, even under normal conditions we see that solar radiation can cause corruption of data, particularly in aircraft. Large solar events that increase that radiation can see a higher number of that radiation reaching the surface of the earth (even if the overall amount is still low). So it's still unlikely to corrupt the data by flipping bits, but it is still a minor risk.
Do you think founders should retain ownership of the companies they create?

Fred Smith’s wealth comes from the notional value of his ownership of a small fraction of an enormously successful and societally useful business. It’s not as if he has a bank account with billions of dollars in profits paid as salary in it, which you seem to believe.

On what basis do you think he should have been compelled to sell his stake in the company he created?

Yes, you’re correct that he didn’t earn a billion dollars. He created a company that investors value at $60B, and his remaining 6% share of it is worth $4B. That $60B was not taken from anyone. It was created - out of thin air - by organizing workers in a way that the world needed.
> So to make this familiar, you're probably used to traditional coordinate vectors in geometry. For example a 3D vector [x, y, z]. This seems sane enough, but is actually somewhat ambiguous.

The concept of a coordinate system is not ambiguous. You have dimensions, and each can be represented as a vector that complies with specific properties, such as linear independence.

> Which cardinal direction map to x, y, z respectively (e.g. is z for up/down or forwards/backwards)?

That's a function of whatever coordinate transformation you wish to apply.

Nevertheless, I vaguely recall from school the concept of an oriented vector space and direct coordinate system, whose definition was something like the cross product of consecutive director vectors resulted in a positive vector (right-hand rule) i.e., the direction of z is determined unambiguously by the direction of x and y.

> Now in geometric algebra we also have oriented basis vectors.

If I'm not mistaken, oriented referential systems are covered in intro to euclidean geometry classes.

> The key difference is that geometric algebra has the exterior product, notated ^. For example, e1 ^ e2 is the exterior product of two oriented basis vectors. You can interpret this as being an oriented basis for the space spanned by e1, e2. And similarly for e1 ^ e2 ^ e3 being an oriented basis of the volume spanned by e1, e2, e3, etc. These are called basis blades.

Sounds like a convoluted way to refer to basic concepts like direction vectors of a direct coordinate system.

Quite bluntly, this all sounds like an attempt to reinvent euclidean geometry following a convoluted way. I mean, what does all this buy you that applying a subset of affine transformations (scaling, translation, rotation) to an orthogonal coordinate system doesn't give you already?
To make a wide reaching and vague law that doesn't fit every industry is crazy. Are Amazon warehouse workers or delivery drivers really as productive in 32 hours as they are in 40 hours? No...there is no way that is possible. This might work for some big cubicle farms...but not for manufacturing type industries.
Similarly, a non-zero portion of facebook or google or amazon's current market cap is worth less than dog-shit.

Hard to say how big that proportion is.
Levada does, yes. They compare response/refusal/coop rates now and before the war and find it to be largely unchanged.

This will just result in lowered salaries across the boards no?

The article mentions that there won't be any pay cuts, and that might be true for the current employees but for new employees the companies will just adjust (read: cut) pay to 32hr weeks.

I am also struggling to see how they plan on keeping track of this "no pay cut".
That really sucks, but this is exactly why I refuse to buy any smart-home devices that I can't control directly and work with Home Assistant. I prefer bulbs and switches that I can also reflash.

I do have a few Wyze cameras because they're cheap and I needed something "now" for a vacation home hours away, but long-term I'd like something that works either with Synology or control myself and preferably that I could reflash - again without cloud connectivity requirements.
> Do they publish how many of respondents refused to talk? I saw information that majority of people refuse to answer questions about war.

I believe an ordinary person against the war yet unwilling to get jailed for this opinion won't just refuse to talk, they would say they totally support their government although they actually totally hate it and wish it to collapse ASAP and the top officials to die in torment.

Imagine you traveled to China or DPRK and some weird local emerged to ask how do you like the policies of their "great leader"? Would you take the risk of being sincere? I bet most people would say "fantastic!" and hurry away.
I don't think that Tesla is a tech company. They trade as a tech company, sure. But down the line I don't think they will. The main differentiator with tech companies is that they scale on a fungible product (software). If Tesla is a tech company, then we should call Ford, GM, VW, Toyota, etc. all tech companies.
I don't think its anything about free speech and other social media platforms. I think its about a revival of the old blogosphere--particularly of those writers who found success there and made writing their career--with the added incentive that monetizing it doesn't require putting a whole bunch of shady ads on your site, or keeping an infrequently pinged tip jar. Writers like Noah Smith moved away from their blog to writing for newspapers and magazines because its how they make their living. They moved to Substack because they probably felt it gave them more control over their careers.
Not really. Rents in my current area are in line with my mortgage. So perhaps they're getting better deals than if they had to sell a house and buy a new one every year, but, it's a much worse deal than if they were able to buy a condo and live in it.

The heterodox truth is that startups are undervalued for their value potential. When single (venture backed) companies all have more cash than the entire ecosystem on their balance sheet, it becomes clear that the market is undervalued.
