In terms of possibility: some adaptations, whether these or others that we can't predict, will occur eventually; evolution doesn't stop.

In terms of how long it'll take: evolution is slow in terms of number of generations per organism, but it's relentless. The more widely any modification is deployed, the more interactions there are, and the quicker in terms of time some adaptation will occur; and, once an advantageous adaptation does occur in one place, seed dispersal will allow it to spread quickly.

As an example that I single out because I read about it recently in the delightful "Lives of weeds" by Cardina (https://www.cornellpress.cornell.edu/book/9781501759000/live...), the adaptations of plants to deal with the "irresistible" Round-Up pesticide are highly improbable, but there were trillions of chances, and so it didn't take long for them to develop; and, once developed, they spread very quickly.
The cyberpunk game that covered its expenses, made a profit, and is slated to receive DLC was made by a studio that disproved that theory how, exactly?
So many misconceptions to comment here, I’ll focus on a one:

> Rust is very low-level language and doesn't have a garbage collector, so development with it will be slower than using JS.

Rust doesn’t have to be low level, and you rarely have to manage memory manually despite the lack of a garbage collector. That is actually one of the coolest features Rust provides: the borrow checker.

I’ve often found my development with it is orders of magnitudes faster than when I develop with javascript because of all the cool features Rust provides.
Parents who don’t want to be parents should be able to elect not to be parents. Forcing them to have children they don’t want and won’t want to or be able to provide for does a disservice to everyone. I’m not going to parrot out bodily autonomy, it wouldn’t matter anyway to anti abortionists; they have their belief system, and it is rigid (religion, politics, whatever). The battle is won on other fronts (robust access to Plan B and abortion pills, logistical networks to get those who need an abortion to medical providers).
TypeScript Error Translator (Including Visual Studio Code Extension)
I was also going to suggest this, although there are a few things about the UI that I don't love - e.g., it takes 5 'tab' keystrokes to get from a note title to the note body.

On that note (no pun intended), I do wish it was possible to query tag intersections, so to speak. E.g., show notes tagged with both 'todo' & 'coding'.
Most pro-life people I know are also against IVF. Can't speak for everyone, though.
My father, born in 1912, explained Einstein thus:

"The kinetic energy of a moving object is
1/2mv^2. So when the object has accelerated
to light speed, you have wasted half of
its mass. And when you brake down from
light speed you have to waste the other
half. So may be you can travel faster than
light, but cannot Ever Arrive Anywhere."

At age 12 I thought this was quite brilliant, because
he was not educated in this and he thought 12 Volt
battery was as dangerous 220 Volt plug.
> So it’s better for them not to exist?

Obviously yes. If you don't want children, or can't afford a child, or aren't fit to be a parent it's far far better if you don't give birth to a child in the first place.
Not yet :). I have been thinking about writing up that approach and maybe releasing a library to make it a bit easier.

I'm a software engineer that's worked as an independent tech consultant for the past two years, and formerly as a systems engineer for a US defense contractor.
It works with humans when they don’t need to constantly run a consensus algorithm (like agreeing on a problem or understanding the team’s relationship with externals.)

An assembly line of 3 people will probably be >3 times faster than a single factory worker.

Not necessarily endorsing the GP's point of view, but most of that 10,000 years was spent with much smaller populations ingesting much fewer calories per capita.
Everyone agrees that rape is wrong, whereas ~80% of the US believes that abortion is okay under some circumstances (~30% under ANY circumstance).

The reality is that this won't stop abortion, just safe abortions, so now we are going to have rape victims attempting to end their daily reminder of their rape, end up with a crooked back-alley doc butchering them. Many would consider that a wrong as well.
I have often wondered what a default payout ought to be, given that 1) these things happen and 2) we'd like to disincentiveize them.

First, I think there's a base, flat fee even if you're in just one day. Next, some kind of pro-rated per annum amount, based on some multiple of the median income in that state. Additional amounts for, I don't know, each day in solitary, whatever documented medical issues arise (it isn't like we can get anyone to write down prison beatings), and so on.

A separate account is created to pay lawyers whose sole job is to scrub the erroneous conviction, from each and every place it exists. I imagine a group to do this.

Another account is created to pay for therapists, pretty much "for life."

I also think something needs to be set aside for assessment of the person's skills and guidance for retraining, five years of college, whatever.

Room and board for, well, I don't know how many years. Your car got repo'd? Yeah, that's a new car for you.

Essentially, the reasonable and fair thing to do would be do whatever is possible to re-integrate people and make them as whole as is possible: financially, psychically, materially, and so on.
If I was in a situation where c++ made sense for a greenfield project, rust would almost certainly be a better choice.
>No draft decision in the modern history of the court has been disclosed publicly while a case was still pending.
>Justices can and sometimes do change their votes as draft opinions circulate

Despite the possibility of second thoughts, this is still very worrying for constitutional rights in general. The chances of other important cases for individual rights like Griswold v. Connecticut being overturned just increased greatly.
No lessons have been learned. There is no catharsis. This blog post has meant nothing.

Comsol is a truly inspirational bit of software. Remarkably easy to get started but with a huge breadth and depth of applicability. I wish there were a way it could be made free. Like, I think it might not be a waste of money for a country to buy a country-wide site license for their citizens.

A browse through their application gallery can be pretty interesting:

I'm following the Common Lisp tutorial that was posted here on HN a little while ago, and the section where it goes over the little loop DSL made me take a step back and reconsider! It's pretty wild. I'm definitely starting to see the beauty of it all though.
I really have to wonder if you googled something and picked the first result without reading it, because your source doesn't refute anything about the GPs statement that "most men are just not having sex in their 20s anymore".

> The researchers obtained the self-reported information from the National Survey of Sexual Health and Behavior and used responses from 4,155 people in 2009 and 4,547 people in 2018. These respondents to the confidential survey ranged in age from 14 to 49 years

> ...

> The decline in adolescent masturbation is interesting, and we were the first to include it. That one deserves a lot more attention

1) Includes adolescents and older people

2) Covers "no sexual activity, either alone or with partners" which is far broader than sex

Here is an article with a link to a study that actually provides evidence related to the statement: https://news.iu.edu/stories/2020/06/iub/releases/15-sexual-i...

Study: https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle...

> The study [...] looked at the sexual activity and number of partners of 18- to 44-year-olds in the U.S. from 2000 to 2018.

> During that time, the researchers found that sexual inactivity had increased from 19 percent to 31 percent among men age 18 to 24. Men and women age 25 to 34 also reported an increase in sexual inactivity during the time period. This coincided with decreases in those who had sex at least weekly and in those with one sexual partner over the past year, while the proportion of men and women with two or more partners in the past year had remained largely unchanged.

It was 15% -> 19% for women age 18 to 24 in the same period.

> More men than women reported having no sexual partner (16.4% vs 12.0%; P = .04) and 3 or more partners (14.5% vs 7.1%; P < .001), whereas fewer men reported weekly or more sexual activity (46.7% vs 53.3%; P = .02) and 1 sexual partner (57.5% vs 74.2%; P < .001). Differences between the sexes were most pronounced among those aged 18 to 24 and 25 to 34 years.

The study also happens to provide evidence for the GPs argument that young women are "all dating the same guy".

Please explain how it works with respect to energy consumption then?

Perhaps there is no way to isolate and characterize the power consumed for this event exactly, but that doesn't mean that one can't characterize the power consumption of crypto.

This is already described in terms of energy used per transaction [1]. So the next question is can we characterize events like these similarly, by i.e. the # of transactions or some other descriptive statistics, and multiply that by the source-weighted energy mix of transactions.

That's not to suggest that this event's energy consumption is higher than the regular rate, but interesting nonetheless.

Yep. This is widespread practice in the industry and is arguably far superior to someone actually trying to model it all in C. It just looks weird in a disassembler because you end up with a million global variables and essentially no control flow.

(It's specifically Matlab Simulink for those playing along at home)

The drive west has had waves of california dreaming. There was the blue sky goldrush fantasy. There was the migrant worker, dustbowl fantasy. There was the Kerouac post-war freedom fantasy. There was the post Kerouac, Kesey/Leary drugs fantasy. There was the Gerry Brown Fantasy.

South Park stopped at EV owners sniffing their own farts. I think the techbro fantasy and the return of arts from Portland to LA has driven another shift in the story.

Snowbirds from Canada are another kind of California Dream.
Looks like vaporware.
That sounds like internet drama and not a serious threat. I think they're powerless to do anything.
Are US courts not aware of VPNs?
I think a consumer standard (like farmed with x quantity of water) might work just as well, and it might be a way to get around the normal politics.
Somewhat relevant that Grinder was purchased in 2018 by PRC company and forced to sell via CFIUS because data could be used to potentially blackmail military/gov officials. Which is both commentary on PRC aquisition strategies and US morality.
The Pareto principle to me feels like hand-wavy psuedo-scientific garbage used to summarize some distribution and simultaneously justify some action by it. It’s like saying things are non-uniform. No shit?
ya and the problem is much of the surplus is driven by a tech and real estate boom that may not continue unlike the spending.

Catch and release? Misdemeanors in California (and most? other states) are crimes that can be punished by up to a year in jail. SFPD doesn't even bother making misdemeanor arrests anymore. Prop 47 isn't a problem and it's not even a symptom.

We've tried the alt right approach and passed the most draconian three strikes law in the country. The result was a prison system that was so overcrowded we had to export prisoners to other states. That's not a tenable solution in the slightest. The (nonpartisan) state Legislative Analyst's Office published a comprehensive review of the consequences of Prop 36.

Lock up all the undesirables works great until you run out of room to keep them warehoused. We ran out of space.
> Preventing abortions brings unwanted children into the world and pushes abortion underground, where they’ll just be less safe abortions.

If someone believes that abortion is killing an innocent human being, and thus immoral worthy of being illegal, this line of argument won't do anything. It would be like saying, "if we ban murder for hire that will push all of the hitmen under ground!". I understand you don't believe that is what abortion is, but I think if you look at it from the pro-life point of view it will show why this line of reasoning doesn't seem convincing.

> Do you know how unwanted children are treated? I volunteer as a guardian ad litem for children who need a court appointed advocate, and I support abortion fully having seen the alternative suffering, not to mention anti abortion proponents supporting life right up until birth, and then it’s “good luck champ, this is America, find those bootstraps.”

This isn't an argument for abortion, its an argument for better child care services and child protection. Most pro-lifers are very supportive of giving support to children and parents who are in tough situations, just recently a local community raised a large amount of money and materials to provide support.

> Anti abortion in America isn’t about pro life, it’s about giving a certain political subset control over womens’ reproductive rights.

This is a false characterization. The difference in view between pro-life and pro-choice is not "womans rights vs. no womans rights" or something like that, its a difference philosophical and moral view of what the unborn /are/.

Does what I say make sense? Please let me know if you need clarifications, I am typing quickly and can't proof read as much as I would like to.
Airliner jet engines are just gas turbines with a ducted fan in place of the generator, and all the heat exchangers/air filters stripped.
Well, at least some power plant gas turbines share the power core with airplane turbofan engines. Technically they likely differ somewhat in the power turbine, as jet thrust from the exhaust is wasted on the ground and thus they try to extract more of the exhaust's power than for a plane, where it's a trade-off between turbine/fan weight and fuel efficiency from essentially gearing the exhaust velocity down to barely above flight speed (having double the exhaust velocity costs 4x the power but only gives 2x the thrust).
“The job” being trading securities at high frequencies?
What are these SIDs of the form S-1-15-2-xxx?
It honestly depends on how generously you want to read it, as a one off outburst or pattern of behavior.

The thread in question has been leaked in full IIRC. You can judge for yourself if you do some digging.
And are therefore free to not get IVF themselves.

Anecdotally, I know someone who is pro-life and he and his wife just had their first baby via IVF. The principles most apply to others seem to become flexible once it affects them personally.
These things don't "wax and wane" they respond to the incentives created by those locations, whether politically cultural. NYC declined until they changed course. They've slowly been reverting and experiencing similar declines.
I agree with most of what you said but when you compare COVID to malaria (at least in the US) it’s a bit silly. Malaria kills ~5 a year, COVID has killed ~500,000 and had life-long impacts on many more.
California seems more popular than it is because it feels like practically the entire state is zoned for single family homes. If it had sane housing policy it would be doing a far better job relative to whatever demand it has on that front.

Most states have more slightly more sane zoning so would be less badly hit by most of the problems that directly result from California’s extreme form of NIMBYism.

A common theme in rust development is the notion that no one could produce more optimal code by hand. This is a great feature, but in the case of async/await we are sacrificing a lot to get it. To the extent that a user trying to make their first http request with reqwest will now get conflicting documentation and guidance on whether they need tokio and other packages to pull in async.
In general you'll lose more brain cells by reading HN comments on political, economic, and health science related topics than you will to lead exposure.
Land is not fungible for agriculture or mining, but for residential purposes, dry land is pretty fungible, just not portable. In agriculturally-relevant quantities, neither is water, at least not without civil engineering projects of the same massive scale as turning lakes into land.
Unless the industry is switching to circular photos and circular video there's not much point. The front looks like a Nest thermostat and the back like a retro futuristic tit.
Is everyone who disagrees with you just "alt-right", is that how that works? Seems to be a pretty common thing.
You could use Go, and there is fyne for cross-platform GUIs, but I think part of the issue is not having a RAD IDE (like say Lazarus or Delphi as in Object Pascal). There is the convenience factor of using Go to build such, and then there is also the direction of where Google takes the language (which isn't about desktop apps).
If abortion is the killing of an innocent human being, which is what the pro-life side asserts, there is no such thing as a "safe" abortion. Its important to understand where opponents of your view are coming from otherwise there will be a communication disconnect which helps noone.
Eh, it's one thing to know a highly memorable quote. It's another to remember the following line.

I've listened to the audiobooks of that series so many times.

Tangent, they got Simon Jones to read for book 6. which i thought was a mistake. He played Arthur in he radio dramas. It made the audiobook hard to follow because every character sounded like Authur.
Also a huge amount of that funding is captured by the administrative bureaucracy and never gets anywhere near a classroom. The state is spending around $375,000 per year on a class of 25 students and $450,000 per year on a class of 30 students. I picked those numbers based on this[1]. Teacher salaries range from about $50,000 to about $100,000[2]. Let's assume benefits and other costs of employment double that. With those conservative assumptions, a small class has $175,000 or $7000 per student per year that isn't being spent on instruction. I seriously doubt California schools are providing students with $7,000 worth of supplies every year.

I'm confident that a significant percentage if not a majority of California parents would prefer to get a $15,000 tax credit per school age child per year than the education the public school system is offering. For a family of four, that's an additional $30,000 in after tax money. That's enough to be a single income household even in California.
