The number of trades plays no role in how much taxes you have to pay. Your net gains do. Thus, winnings do in fact get canceled out by losses.
Wrong. Did you read the article? Cowbirds raised in contact with only their foster parents (e.g., in captivity) think they are their foster parents' species, learn their songs, and try to mate with members of their host species. This research answers the question of how young cowbirds in the wild avoid this. The answer includes instinctual elements (that drive them to sneak out to meet their biological parents), but learning clearly is an essential factor.

This makes much more sense than calling him a fraud and projecting one's envy onto him. Frauds don't build and they don't solve problems.

See also the almost unknown Makeheaders program that is part of the Fossil project that will by default generate one .h file per .c with the same name as the C file. Only headers that needs be modified are touched so that when a header file is updated only the corresponding .c file is recompiled with no need for gcc/Makefile wizardry with -M flags and -include directives

Of course you then find the same function prototypes repeated over and over in many headers but I don't mind the boilerplate when it is automated and I don't have to actually write any of it.

The only problem is that it is bare bones and only supports outputting the header file in the same directory than the c files, that's mildly annoying but that could easily be modified and the program is contained in a single c file.

If you’re waiting until after signing a deal to do basic due diligence, especially on supposedly material information that didn’t even exist at the time you made your offer - Twitter reported the 5% figure in May, Elon made his offer in April - it is, 100%, unambiguously, on you.

It is fascinating to see what information can be deduced from such an artifact.

All 3 of them took wealth away from paper-millionaire shareholders of competing companies (eg. Netscape) and delivered superior quality of life to the consumer. Nobody sheds a tear for the paper-millionaires, rightfully so. It's only their greed which didn't make them cashout before Standard Oil/Microsoft eventually outcompeted them delivering a better product to the consumer.

Same with Facebook v. Myspace and Google v. Yahoo. Nobody sheds a tear for the shareholders of Myspace and Yahoo. Rightfully so.

fruits will:

- charge the buyer with the applicable tax between fruits (company in Germany) and the buyer in Country XYZ

- each buyer will receive an invoice (issued by fruits)

- the seller will receive a single credit note for all sales within that month targeting a German company (fruits)

Ask HN: Would mining for oil in the United States again bring down gas prices?
I have been wondering what would happen if we would start mining for oil again in the United States, would it bring down gas prices? As for environmental concerns I don’t think we are any worse the having another country mine the oil and then send it over, in fact the transport costs makes it probably twice as worse in terms of the environment. So why don’t we just start mining for oil again here?

Infrastructure has multiple layers. Why does your bare minimum infrastructure start with Kubernetes and not with the OS underneath? Why does it start with the OS and not the firmware configuration? Why does it start with the firmware and not the hardware configuration you order from the vendor?
Wow, that’s really unfortunate. At my current company, standup is around 20 seconds per employee. Literally, the PM pulls up the JIRA board sorted by employee, and each person says “I’m currently working on ticket X, it’s [going well/I’m having trouble with Y/etc.]” and then you move on. If someone’s stuck on something they’ll take a minute or two to explain it and someone else can jump in to help. The PM often has a couple minutes of questions at the end that are requests coming from other teams.

For a team of 6 people, we schedule 15 minutes and it usually ends in under 10.
That sounds really uncomfortable, I doubt I'd be able to sleep well with that kind of pressure on my face.

Labview provides a dataflow programming environment that can be used to program FPGAs (eg in the compactRIO line of hardware).

Not saying it's great (it's not), but it works in its niche: programming of one-off test fixtures by people who really have no idea about programming, digital circuits or FPGAs but might need the performance they afford (eg real-time high frequency control of a 100K+ RPM prototype gas turbine). You also have to be willing to shell out for their hardware (and labview itself), but in the testing world, I've found their hardware to actually be on the "pretty affordable for what you get" side, compared to the likes of HBM eDAQ or Siemens LMS setups.

An in-progress task, that I really hope will not be a failure, but that has most of the typical hallmarks of my usual "oh, here's a technical thing I'd really like to see accomplished and will attempt, but that, if I'm honest, is probably beyond my focus and capability to achieve":

I think there are opportunities in PostgreSQL to improve the performance of multi-string pattern matching (essentially, queries that contain a LIKE comparison against a pattern that contains multiple wildcards/placeholders).

There's some work-in-progress[1] by another person to implement Boyer-Moore[2] string search, and that'll be a good improvement I expect. I did some digging into the state-of-the-art research-wise, and found a paper[3] that presents results that improve on Boyer-Moore, and that's what I'd like to try implementing.

I have the existing Boyer-Moore patch applied locally and compiling, and have begun thinking about how to systematically benchmark and performance-test changes (ideally I want to get to the point where I have a strong understanding of my own implementation and can rapidly iterate on that with support from performance tests). But it seems to be taking me a long time to achieve progress, and my guess is that I'll be distracted by other tasks before completing it.

(it's purely a personal objective; I think it'd be very cool to potentially increase the performance of PostgreSQL and many applications that depend on it)

I currently live in Dublin, I think you are exaggerating quite a bit.

There are many reasons not to live in Dublin (poor housing quality / price, high cost of living, poor public transport, crime, etc) but the weather is absolutely not on that list.

Dublin has about 130 rainfall days each year, and most of those are in the winter. Most days are mild and dry. The weather is warm and pleasant enough to enjoy water sports year-round. I spend most of my recreation time during the winter in a wetsuit without a hood.

We don't get heavy snow, extreme cold/heat, hurricane force winds, or flooding. Overall, I think the weather here is better than most people give it credit for.
Ask HN: Pros and Cons of Switching from Linux to M1 MacBook in 2022
Last asked a year ago (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27005357), I'm curious to hear how things might have changed and how Linux users have felt moving over. I have the opportunity to swap to a top of the line M1 Max Macbook Pro for work, but as a 10 year Linux only user have some reservations.

Things I'm excited about:

- M1s seem much faster, I do a lot of code compilation so this would be a boon

- "Just works"

- Better hardware, much better battery life - can actually use a laptop as a laptop!

Things I'm concerned about:

- Package management not being first class

- Having to learn a new OS/new shortcuts/etc

- Being disconnected from how things run in production. For example, its really useful to run things like Heaptrack locally to track down memory issues.

- Docker not running well (maybe this is better than it was in 2021 though?)

- Things being similar but different enough that it'll be frustrating

Have any long time Linux users switched over? How are you finding it/enjoying it now?
It sends you a code that expires and there's no way to request another.

In general - please let codes last at least an hour or so. I always get distracted waiting for the code and have to request another one - often several times. Unless you can guarantee instant code delivery (which you probably can't) then I am going to go off and do something else and I probably will forget to check for a while.

The process of gathering evidence after the suit has started is called discovery.

There are three major kinds of evidence that would be useful here. Most useful but least likely: email inside the company in which someone says "make sure that this doesn't select too many people with disabilities" or "it's fine that the system isn't selecting people with disabilities, carry on".

Useful and very likely: prima facie evidence that the software doesn't make necessary reasonable accomodations - a video captcha without an audio alternative, things like that.

Fairly useful and of moderate likelihood: statistical evidence that whatever the company said or did, it has the effect of unfairly rejecting applicants with disabilities.

> But their ongoing successes were very much political and public perception. Ford especially was incredibly politically active and noisy about it.

Nobody remembers Ford's political activism. Apparently he ran for US Senate once and lost. Is there any reason to think that Ford's political activism had anything to do with the success of the Ford Motor Company?

Ford hyping cars is fine and expected. Ford hyping politics doesn't really seem to add anything. In fact, it appears that there were some antisemitic writings associated with Ford, there was a lawsuit and a consumer boycott, and he was forced to apologize.

A common fallacy is to assume that everything a successful person does in life contributes to their success. OJ Simpson was one of the greatest football running backs ever, and he was also a murderer. You might say, "if he wasn't a violent person, then he wouldn't have been a great running back", but somehow Barry Sanders managed not to murder anyone.

IME the main problem of allowing to include headers in headers is that this quickly grows out of control, and after a while headers will include stuff that's not actually needed (usually, no longer needed).

Then you get quickly into a situation where a header includes another header that's no longer needed by itself, but is used by another header in the same 'include tree', which in turn doesn't include the required header itself. Gets very messy very quickly.

It's much easier to notice and fix such situations in the top-level implementation file, and another advantage is that the "dependency complexity" of an implementation file is visible at a glance by looking at the include list at the top of the file.

TL;DR: It's not primarily for compilation speed, but for 'header hygiene' (but of course this will also eventually help with compilation speed as the project grows).

Another well known (at least among game devs) proponent of the the same idea is Our Machinery (granted, the whole idea makes a lot more sense in C than in C++, because in C declaration and implementation is usually much stricter separated into header and source files than in C++)

> They did not look at the actual crimes reported to the law enforcement agencies.

Where are you reading this?

Page 8 of the study says they got their actual crime data from the Newport Beach Police Department and the Los Angeles Police Department. They compared this to their comparative perceived safety "by asking how safe the respondents felt their community was as compared to other communities."

Page 10: "The gated community showed a significantly higher rating of comparative community safety as compared with the nongated community" whereas "there was no significant difference in the per capita crime rate for the gated community as compared with the nongated community."
I realize that. I was replying to the parent comment that claims that it has always been like this which is not true.
