Even in parts of the country with better bike infrastructure, I still find the throttle vs non-throttle distinction to be an often overlooked one - having a throttle makes it easy to sustain aggressive riding that would be utterly exhausting to most normal riders on a pedal-assist or muscle powered bike / scooter / whatever.

On one hand, I know having more people riding is broadly a good thing because it increases demand for infrastructure, makes drivers more aware that they should be looking out for non-car stuff, etc... but on the other hand, I can't help but be a bit grumpy as a long-time muscle powered bike commuter that these new electric ones with throttles make it really easy for casual riders to throw all of the normal convention and expectations about how bikes move and behave out the window, often to the annoyance or risk of people around them.

A decade ago there was never any expectation of being passed at a high rate of speed while climbing a bridge or hill, nor many riders who were capable of racing up to a tight gap or turn only to slam on brakes and floor it out of there, burning momentum in the process. Stuff with throttles mixed with stuff without throttles mashes together two very different ways of riding.

If you stare at anyone long enough they will get mad. I don't recommend this experiment.
That's really it. The stranger danger is a dodge.

The real reason people don't let their young children outside is because they might get killed by an inattentive driver. It's the most tangible, innately felt thing out in America's public realm, how crazy dangerous it is on foot, constantly having to be on the lookout for cars. And of course getting blamed if they do happen to be struck. A kid got killed in an apartment complex parking lot in my city by a driver. The comments were horrifying, people felt sorry for the driver, blamed the parents.

If you're measuring in terms of time, electricity, or hardware, then the threshold would tend to be lower for Google, not higher. A 0.1% savings on a million machines is ~1 million times more valuable than a 0.1% savings on a single machine.

OTOH if the measurement is risk of breaking something, then it's not nearly so clear, since larger organizations tend to have more software and hardware, and therefore more opportunities for things to get broken.
My local caffee that I often visit with a laptop usually just plainly asks to leave if you are at the table for more than 1 hour without ordering anything :-D I have no problem with that and it doesn't seem like there is a lack of laptop-users and study-groups in the caffee, I guess other people are understanding too :-D

I don't use React-based static site generators, but I'd imagine if they become slow it's because it's generating a large code-base, but unless you provide some benchmarks showing compilation of React vs some other templating system I can't really take your argument against it for this use case.
> This person receives a follow and a couple DMs

No, this person ignored a couple DMs and follows, then had to deal with the perpetrator contacting their friends and trying to goad them into meeting. Then after that failed, continued to try to follow the person on LinkedIn and other sites. That's called stalking and it's a real problem.

> from someone that used to undermine their self esteem.

You don't know that. The author didn't say what the problem was other than that the perpetrator was a bully. They could have been a rapist for all you know.

> Instead of saying anything, instead of just ignoring them,

They tried that and it didn't work! They gave a clear signal that this is not OK, and whatever the perpetrator wants to say, the author doesn't want to hear it. And yet, the perpetrator persisted in trying to find other ways to get the author to do something they didn't want to do.

> Talk about spiraling. Wow.

Yeah, this isn't spiraling. This is pointing out a real issue that some people have with boundaries, and the people around them ignoring it or being too afraid to tell them. Repeatedly contacting someone from your past who doesn't want to be contacted is not cool no matter why you want to contact them.

> Are a lot of people like this such that I should stop laughing and "validate" this behavior?

I mean, if you don't want a be a dick, don't laugh at other people's pain, even if you don't understand it. But you do you.

Recently had a client stiff us for $75k. His lawyer then sent us a letter trying to get us to agree to just keeping the $25k deposit or he would sue us for $1MM. he also made fun of my outdated linked in profile and accused me of fraud by restating everything in my CV as "alleged".

I spoke with a few lawyers and they said the appropriate response to that embarrassing letter is to throw it away and not think of it again.

They never sued for $1MM and technically I have something like 6 years to sue him for breech and the $75k if I want to... Likely won't as the legal bill will be $100k.

Trained emotionally or desensitized?

Are there any side effects from this training? What if it reduces empathy or causes you become more aggressive. It seems odd if you become immune to constant emotional attacks it would have no other negative effects on your mental well being.

Bullying in adulthood isn't as intense as well in most situations. If someone at work came up to me, pushed me, and told me to kill myself they would be fired.

You might think bullying as an adult involves situations where you get over charged by a plumber or you aren't that aggressive at work so you don't that promotion. I'll admit this does happen but for the most part people who are professional and mature succeed and aggressive behavior is also wrong.

My brother and I once had an idea for a 4D game, where you could be chased by NPCs that could move in 4 spatial dimensions. As well as perspectively increasing in size as they came closer to you in 3 dimensions, they would red and blue shift to indicate the 4th dimension.

>YPG is a organization with plenty of Kurdisch [sic] nationalists in it.

And Turkey is a country with plenty of Turkish nationalists in it. By that logic you argue any Turkish citizen is an extremist. Feel free to 'fact check' and come up with whatever extremist rhetoric you'd like to use to dismiss away the fatal effect on civilians of recent Turkish-backed incursions into Afrin Canton.
"Wasted" solar and wind power was free. Overprovisioned renewable capacity is cheap. Charging storage, later, from overprovisioned renewable capacity, or connecting to the power grid and selling on the open market, converts overproduction to income.

Wasted nuke overcapacity is very, very expensive.

To see what later copies of existing nukes cost, we need look no further than Vogtle.
As a semi-christian, I agree. I think that evolution is the sort of beautiful self-correcting system that God would want to put in place.
> Chronic use on infrastructure meant for pedestrians.

The issue is Stroads [1][2]. Infrastructure caters too much for cars. If we had real streets, this wouldn't be an issue.

I was just in Nashville, and they have scooters you can use. It felt 10x more dangerous than me biking at high speed in NYC. Even though there was a bike path, it was next to cars going 50mph, not fun, nor safe.

No, they're impossible because modern science doesn't allow for them, and because no evidence exists for them. The bar wasn't personal belief, the bar was "variance with known science."
Religion is all about discarding pieces of data that you don't like while fixating on the pieces you find meaningful. Some people believe the planet is flat, if people can believe that I assume people can at this point believe anything.

Ah yes the old fallacy: science or spirituality. Obviously can’t have both as that would require more complicated thought processes than you can fathom.

No, hosting the hardware yourself is not the main alternative.

Very few non-cloud users actually host the hardware themselves. You can rent dedicated servers or even VMs just about anywhere. The hosting company manages and maintains the hardware as part of the monthly price.

E-bikes might be the only think to get me off the side of wanting to ban bikes from roadways. I really don't understand why there isn't a larger group of people who dislike bikes riding on roads.

1. You don't have to be licensed to bike on a road, but you do for motorized vehicles. This doesn't make sense.

2. Bikes can't keep up with traffic. I have to sit behind bikes trying to get up the SF hills daily, and either have to perform semi-dangerous passes or wait while cars back up behind me.

3. Bikes break road laws way more frequently than cars. Blowing through red lights and stop signs like they don't exist, which is dangerous for the biker, the cars, and especially pedestrians trying to cross the road.

E-bikes with a biking test/license would solve most of my issues.
They way you phrased your "simple question": "Then why don't they give the option to enable this in a "work mode" and not turn it on for everyone by default?" assumed that Google had turned it on for everyone, and it read as if you thought that was unreasonable and outrageous.

It might be nice if people assumed good faith, as opposed to assuming that anything that $BIG_COMPANY might do is unreasonable and evil. Certainly many people on these threads immediately leapt to the assumption that it was enabled for everyone and was trying to coerce people into some kind of DEI hell that conservatives hate.
I don't think the purpose of SSR + hydration is to simply move the wait time from first render to server response, or that servers can somehow render faster. To fully yield the benefits you'd have to enable caching, so that the server spits out something without rendering and the client side can simply hydrate.

Caching is not something individual distributed clients can do, which is why the server is the only way able to reasonably take on this role. You can also easily configure nginx to serve just-in-time caching.
Super Agent works great! What a difference it makes.
The thing that gets me is that people do this stuff all the time and it's not a problem until CPS gets dragged into it, while at the same time the system is massively overburdened. They should be punishing the people calling in mundane issues and wasting their time. But! That might dissuade someone from reporting something, and the first time a bad case is missed the outrage and subsequent overcorrection lands us back to where we are now.
I'm developing a Godot game and it's really ridiculous I need a Mac to compile it for the MacOS and iOS.

Would you be okay with people making a title Doctress? That's a better analogy, to me, for actor->actress, than guys vs. gals. Someone created a gendered term where one didn't need to exist (as demonstrated by the lack of other professions that had this distinction). Where the distinction did exist, is a case like you've pointed out where women were explicitly, or implicitly barred from certain professions for thousands of years. So when we opened up those professions, it seems reasonable to say "no we just want you to call us what you call everyone else", and actress is the exception that proves the rule.

The phrase "you guys" is attempting to be evolved, by parties who use it currently, and don't want to change their behavior to be explicitly inclusive. I'm not going to speak to what's okay in other countries, but the English definition of Guys is from Guy Fawkes, and is intended to mean a man. I would be surprised if the etymology of that weren't the same for Australia, which was also a British colony.

But the last thing I will point out, is that it's not on the in-group "men" to say whether or not they're excluding people. It's the people who are being excluded who get to make that determination for whether or not they feel like there are barriers for them. So when men say "you guys" is inclusive, they're saying "I don't want to change my behavior, so this now includes everyone." And the thing that's being ignored is that there are people who don't agree that they are included in that phrase.
About the last one, I remember being positively surprised by how little 'happens' in terms of news in Germany, compared to back in Turkey. Leaving that feeling of impending doom, as if something bad is waiting just around the corner, and most of your small talk now being about shitty weather or whatever.

Then COVID and Russia happened, and now the world is catching up in doom and gloom. :)

See, cryptography engineering is sinking in!

Here you go:

https://toadstyle.org/cryptopals/62.txt

What's especially great about this is that it's very easy to accidentally have a biased nonce; in most other areas of cryptography, all you care about when generating random parameters is that they be sufficiently (ie, "128 bit security worth") random. But with ECDSA, you need the entire domain of the k value to be random.

You probably don't need that luxury car and are better off without it.

Then go argue about the headache and the price and when you're done, your audience will just go back to their favorite toys. AWS it is. I will never advice anyone against AWS unless they are broke and it will bleed them dry. If you can afford it and have the skillset to run it, go for it. If you also have the skillset to go cheaper, go for it.
> As someone who's gained a lot of clarity from what you've written on HN in the past

Flattering that you can even identify my handle (I don't even have it committed to memory).

> Could you explain more about what your disagreement is?

Sure.

1. The BLM organization (that the banner was asking people to donate to) seems shady. Leaders lead lavish lives (alliteration not intended) while it's unclear how these funds are actually benefiting the people they purport to advocate for.

2. The BLM movement is predicated on a false narrative: racist police are disproportionately killing black people. This is only true if you fail to account for obvious factors like crime rates and rates of police interaction. This is all propped up by cherry-picked and often highly-editorialized examples. America does have a problem with police killings, but it doesn't appear to be racist contra the BLM narrative, and 90+% of Americans already support police reform.

3. The BLM movement appears to have done far more damage than it has saved (and I'm not even talking about property damage). The BLM movement succeeded in pressuring police departments to minimize killings of black people, but the anti-police pressure is also very likely a primary driver in the violent crime surge which has resulted in an enormous net loss of both black lives and American lives more generally.

4. The ideologies that shroud the movement (which are variously called "critical race theory" or "wokeness" or "antiracism" or etc) reject what we might call "colorblind egalitarianism" in favor of "race consciousness" which invariably results in the reification of race. E.g., a translator is fired because he's white and the author he was to translate is black, or a white man is prohibited from volunteering on a board because there's already a white woman. Or the various strictures about who is allowed to open an Asian restaurant, host a geisha party, wear a Chinese-inspired prom dress, etc. Or the various associations of math, objectivity, literature, etc with "whiteness" or "white supremacy". I can go on and on. Of course, I this sort of "BLM racism" has also "legitimized" and animated right-wing racism, so I think we see a rise in racism on both sides of the aisle. I'm passionate about a post-racist world, and I think we're a lot worse off as a result of BLM and adjacent ideologies than we were 10 years ago.

Obviously I would support these points better if it were a longform post, but this is already very long for HN. Also, this is pretty terse (for sake of brevity), but I don't mean this to come across as combative. I'm happy to talk more about this, although given the controversial nature I'm not sure if this is the appropriate forum. :/
I'm involved with a project that is built out using colocation space in a traditional datacenter, running on VMware Vsphere. Up to now, they've been doing this very manually: customers assigned to specific, named servers; servers provisioned manually (largely scripted, but not automated); networking configured manually; etc. Worse, they have two deployments in different regions of the world, but they're managed mostly by separate teams and there's a lot of implementation details that are very different. I come from an AWS infrastructure-as-code world, and it's shocking how primitive this stuff all feels.

They had considered switching to AWS or Azure in the past, but ultimately deccided to stay on this setup for cost reasons, and frankly I don't think anyone understood the benefits of infrastructure-as-code let alone taking advantage of all the other thing in the cloud providers.

I came in to help modernize it. Just as we were getting going with some Terraform-based proof-of-concept, a couple things happened: some sales opportunities came up that would require running in another region, and there were some harder questions on the disaster recovery plan (eg: "what happens if the datacenter burns down?"). The company doesn't want to invest in building out another traditional datacenter, let alone redundant ones, so we took this opportunity to discuss shifting this project over to AWS or Azure.

Once built with infrastructure-as-code on the cloud providers a bunch of these problems just disappear, even without making the app itself "cloud-native". Having a dev environment that mirrors production is easy. Having multiple multi-tenant environments in different regions -- and adding new regions -- is also easy. Recovering from a major disaster would also be relatively painless, provided you have a good backup strategy (deploy to new region, restore backups).
Isn't that a circular argument?

My implicit claim is that the information in Genesis is coming from a superior source who would know, but you are saying that Genesis cannot be accurate because those who wrote it could not know what was scientifically accurate.

The writers of the Bible books generally claimed that the information they wrote down was inspired.
