I'm going to offer a hot take just for the sake of consideration, which is that at some level, for many things in a relationship, it doesn't matter if someone is actually a good listener, it is whether or not they are perceived to be a good listener that matters. That is, part of "being a good listener" is that the person being listened to feels listened to.

This doesn't mean anyone who is extroverted can't be a good listener, regardless of how you define it, but it does suggest that whatever this pattern is in the paper, it's the thing that matters most?
I do wonder at which point does modern agriculture stop being natural? We killed micro-ecologies from vast areas of land, removed wild plants/rodents and other so-called "pests" and forced large scale growing of plants in various ways - selective breeding and process optimization to boost yields, etc. Do we call all that natural and draw the line at GMO?

This is all I can imagine we'll end up with. Some states are going to force religious laws on their population and others will not. People will flee to states that don't oppress them and those states under religious law will continue to decline.

The same way states that push abstinence only sex-ed see higher rates of teenage pregnancy those states that push fundamentalist religious law on the people will see more suffering and death, higher rates of poverty and violence, etc.

I know, but this library compiles Rust to WASM. That suggests that the Rust code is somehow being turned into DOM operations and responses.

It's possible that the compiler is turning all DOM operations into JS and the rest into WASM, but I don't think that's the case here.

The heavily advertised commercial refill options want to lock you into their system, so they sell refills made of plastic that only fit into their bottles. It's just pandering to a certain crowd without really helping the problem.

If you search a lot harder, there are some other options. Like for cleaning sprays, there are dry refills that add no plastic and require adding your own liquid, like this one - https://meliorameansbetter.com/collections/homecleaning/prod... - there are others out there, but I've been pretty happy with this product.

This is a reason that is brought up once in a while - but even after working 10 years in the domain of high-concurrency services I've never seen compelling data that shows clearly whether stackless coroutines are more efficient than stackful ones. People unfortunately rarely write applications in both approaches to tell.

While the "stack is optimally sized" argument exists, it might not always be true: E.g. implementations could require far more memory being required for the "virtual" stack than what is actually required due to implementation challenges. That for example applies in various situations in Rust. Then a more classical stackless implementation which allocates state for each callback on the heap (like if you manually write boost asio code) which have quite some allocation and memcpy churn. And besides that a "virtual stack" might be more fragmented and less cache friendly than a contiguous stack, which also impacts efficiency.
I would agree that some people are inconsistent, but I don't think that overturns their arguments. Outright murderers often think murder is wrong even though they committed that crime. Also on IVF some simply haven't thought through their principles in regard to it or have emotional reasons that make it hard for them to apply their own principles.
The legal fees would add up to hundreds of thousands of dollars at a minimum. There just aren't many people / organizations who have that kind of money to spend just to get some open source code. Perhaps adding some language about legal fees would make the license more attractive to lawyers.
Of course they are the inflation-protected bonds. I guessed that given our currrent economic situation.

There is something I saw on YT a year or so ago from a guitar teacher who said that his students have changed over the past 15 years: they used to come in and say "I want to learn this song from my favorite band" - and now, overwhelmingly, when asked what they want to learn, they shrug and start scrolling through their phone to try to find an answer. They want to learn, but not anything specifically. And often when they have something, it could be the most random old thing, from any era.

That is, the song catalogue has stopped being something that has turnover, it just keeps accumulating into a library of dusty shelves, and that makes it hard for young people to assert norms as in days past and tell everyone "this band that was marketed to my demographic is totally the best and nothing will ever beat them" - which is where a concept of "best song" is going to come from, because hardly anyone is trying to assign letter grades to their listening.

Instead you'll see a more apocalyptic Fall-of-Rome tone in the comments of old hits: "I'm only 13 but I wish I were in the 80's, best decade for music nothing like today's crap". It's so common a sentiment as to be memetic and widely riffed upon.

Something has definitely changed in the music business.

What you say makes sense, and I believe it’s a fundamental gap that can’t be closed. I simply cannot put myself in the shoes and mental model of someone who is pro life (and I’ve tried; otherwise how can I have a reasonable debate with the opposition), and I’m sure the feeling is mutual. Therefore, both sides are to remain in tension until a point comes where democracy overrides through cohort turnover [1] (but at a cost of suffering between now and then).

MMT says that about governments that issue the currency their debt is denominated in. California doesn't issue currency, and most states are constitutionally forbidden from running a budget deficit. California has a particular problem due to Prop 13, which forces it to rely more heavily on income tax, which is much more income elastic than property tax. Any year with a recession hits their budget much worse than most other states. Conversely, they do a lot better during booms, but since voters hate states having rainy day funds and prefer getting the excess refunded, that doesn't help, either.

No, spouting off unhinged alt right conspiracy theories gets you labeled alt right. That's how it works. Things like "anti-Asian initiatives", "covid extremism", "anti-lead propaganda" or whinging about how raising the felony threshold to keep pace with inflation is the cause of "all the crime".

Only the VLF portion is deductible, so it depends on the value of your car. If you have expensive new car, maybe you are charged a $300 VLF and can get a $100 benefit from the deduction. If you drive an old beater, you benefit might be more like $10.

https://www.dmv.ca.gov/wasapp/FeeCalculatorWeb/vlfForm.do

If you're a high-income taxpayer, you might also just hit the $10k SALT cap from other taxes alone, making the effective benefit 0.

Also, this is probably dwarfed by amount you actually paid for the car (amortized over its lifetime), plus the amount you pay for insurance.
No. English is the current Language of Science. Up till about 1950, German was the Language of Science. Before German, it was French (IIRC). Going back further still, it was Latin.

It seems the Language of Science is beginning to change as more and more Chinese papers are being written. Soon those Chinese papers will be published in Chinese instead of in English. Just like the Language of Science changed from German to English when the US started producing most of the Scientific Papers.

How many people do you know who have used an ivory comb? Were your grandparents even around when they were debating the ban? I find it hard to believe that people who enjoyed using ivory products 100 years ago would have supported banning them. It’s disingenuous to assume that the ban wasn’t controversial at the time just because nobody today has even heard of everyday items being made from ivory.

People adjusted because better materials came along. That’s the main reason governments were able to ban ivory: there was finally a viable alternative to piano keys and other everyday items made from ivory. Ironically, plastic was the wonder material that replaced ivory in many applications.

Few people remember what the pre-plastic world was like. It wasn’t better. It was hard to cheaply keep things sterile in hospial settings. Food spoiled faster without cheap, airtight storage containers. Everything was heavier or more flammable because wood, paper, or metal were the only comparable substitute materials.

Maybe we should be discussing how we discover the next wonder material that can make plastic obsolete instead of hand waving and saying “people will adjust” if we make it illegal to use and produce.
Maybe. Realistically it won't matter, because any real world server would either need a lot more memory anyway to actually handle application-specific concerns or support a much lower number of clients. Keep in mind that even with a tiny and receive buffer of 16kB plus maybe some TLS state of > 30kB per connection the baseline memory usage of doing anything useful is already much higher than 4kB - unless the only thing you want to do is building a large-scale TCP ping service.

I’m not sure I’m grokking this. As you note, the hard part about changing license is if the copyright for a project is jointly held by a large number of contributors.

Contacting all those contributors to get them to agree to a license change is a large undertaking. But assigning the copyright to the SFC Conservancy also requires contacting all of them for their agreement. If my concern is ensuring flexibility in licensing, the original developer might as well just contact them all and have them sign a CLA or similar, granting control of the copyright to themselves. Then they’ve got the same flexibility, without needing the SFC.
No, most software engineers think salespeople are idiots because they have a bad habit of selling things to customers that don't exist yet, and in many cases cannot exist, and then you have to tell them, point blank, that they just lied to a customer to secure a sale and no solution to their problem with be coming. Salespeople generally only care about this quarter, if a chargeback or contract cancelation happens, that's a next quarter problem.

Example that hit the front page yesterday: https://jolynch.github.io/posts/distsys_shibboleths/ I've seen many of these "negative shibboleths" said by salespeople shoveling database products to secure the sale. They lied, they knew they lied, and they lied to worship at the altar of the almighty dollar.
That's, of course, a valid concern. But IMO, that doesn't justify late-stage abortion. The main argument would be the ubiquity of morning-after pills and pregnancy tests.

Also, it is noteworthy that only a very small fraction of abortions are done because of rape. [1]

Ask HN: Would anyone like to mentor an intermediate developer?
My name is Peter. I've been programming for several years, but not yet professionally. I'm pretty good with Python & Django, and OK with Javascript, and I've done a lot of small/medium hobby projects. I'd like to get a job coding, but I'm not sure how to transition into a technical career. I'm a generalist for sure, and I'm pretty confident in my ability to code and solve problems, but I think I'm going about the career/job aspect the wrong way.

I'm open to different ideas, and I'd be glad to give back in whatever way I can to anyone who'd like to work with me.

You can check out most of my projects at github.com/lawsonpd, and just DM if you'd like to know more!

It is like periodic table for chemical elements, singularly the one best thing about documentation that I ever read. It helped me immensely to structure the way I am thinking about documents. It starts with clear delineation of four quadrants: tutorials, how-tos, explanation and reference, and everything just clicks from there. I found that my problems usually due to subconsciously mixing them up - and setting the boundaries is very useful.
> Should states also be allowed to legislate contraceptives, premarital sex, sex between same sex couples, ...?

The people that have been pushing against Roe have pushed for all of those on the same basis,
and the decisions on all of those were the underpinnings of Roe. So, yes, and soon.

The current Court seems to really want to distinguish closely-marriage-related rights from it's attack on Roe, so I’d see contraceptive rights of unmarried individuals and pre- and extra-marital sex as the most likely next successful targets from the list.
A little late to the party here, but here's my list:

- Leetcode, my DS & A courses in college weren't particularly rigorous. Only by doing 300 LC problems to prep for interviews did I begin to feel competent with DS & A, and I still have a lot more niche stuff to learn like Red Black trees and KD trees.

- Pay attention in college classes! Certain classes I took in college are core parts of my computer mental model that I think about every day. Especially operating systems, hardware + systems fundamentals, programming languages, and obviously DS & A.

- Generally most of the work that is done these days is in web dev, so be sure to do a bunch of web dev personal projects, ideally substantial apps. If going into another area then be sure to get good at that, like do some RPi stuff if you're trying to get into embedded.

But above all else, the number one thing that made getting good at programming easier was being genuinely interested in the subject matter. My classes and projects never really felt like work to me. If you hate computers then you're gonna have a bad time.
Moral superiority? Perhaps in some purist circles.

No, the biggest problem is that for so called 'engineers', software engineers who do web development are by far among the worst at actually evaluating solutions based on their engineering merit. Thus, we get overengineered solutions in companies and areas that simply do not need that level of complexity.
