"Rules of thumb like “mortgage amount should be less than 3x income” don’t make much sense because they ignore the interest rate."

They're fine as a rule of thumb. The individual should still run their own numbers to see if their limit is higher or lower.

Even at 2.5% interest, I have a hard time seeing anyone being able to responsibly buy a $450k house on $80k income. They might be able to swing it, but they'll be screwed as soon as a large unexpected expense comes up. Even a 2% property tax will eat close to 10% of their gross income. There's no way they could save for an emergency fund or properly fund a retirement account.
AFAIK Elm can not be considered "a better JavaScript" because it not only is fundamentally different, it also is not fully self-sufficient - in many cases you have to resort to JavaScript pieces while engineering an Elm app.
I was just researching this and the new Enphase IQ8 microinverters will run without grid power. You are correct though it is common for microinverters to require grid power to operate, which seems pretty surprising!

I learned to program on a 1 Mhz CPU with 64K of RAM, and no storage. It's really hard for me to not continue to be amazed at this laptop with a 2 GHz, 4 Core CPU, 8 Gigabytes of RAM, 250 Gigabytes of effectively 0 mSec seek disk, and 100 Megabit Wifi that connects to the world.

We're so hardware rich, it's amazing. When I was in college, a Cray-I was the ultimate in computing... 80 Million FLOPS sustained. The supercomputer in my pocket (a $200 Motorola Smartphone) can easily beat that, doesn't require 3 phase power, raised flooring, or industrial cooling.

You kids don't seem to realize just how good you've got it.
To be fair, that first question about 'what is a systems programming language' is answered by Rob Pike then Andrei Alexandrescu as

Pike: When we first announced Go we called it a systems programming language, and I slightly regret that because a lot of people assumed that meant it was an operating systems writing language. And what we should have called it was a 'server writing language', which is what we really thought of it as. As I said in the talk before and the questions, it's turned out to be more generally useful than that. But know what I understand is that what we have is a cloud infrastructure language because what we used to call servers are now called cloud infrastructure. And so another definition of systems programming is stuff that runs in the cloud.

Alexandrescu: I'm really glad I let Rob speak right now because my first question was 'go introduces itself as a systems programming language' and then that disappeared from the website. What's the deal with that? So he was way ahead of me by preempting that possible question.

So it seems to me that they struggle with the nuances of the concept as much as the commenters here, particularly as it pertains to Golang.
Considering that the US alone could feed another 800M people with just the grains that go to feed cattle - the idea that we're going to run out of food any time soon is strange.
I scraped by on many a physics exam with a few equations, constants, and invarients that let me derive the rest. That's pretty close to math though

From the review of Dr.
Suzy Kim’s “Everyday Life in the North Korean Revolution, 1945-1950”:

“The anglophone archive on the DPRK is a bleak record of imperialist slander, replete with the most lurid and theatrical tales of passively suffering masses and the flamboyant pseudo-socialist “regime” that supposedly keeps them in a state of total servitude. Between hypocritical fears of its nuclear power and conscience-rattling anxieties over the alleged condition of human rights within, the DPRK looms as a symbol of the negation of liberal freedoms. It is within this context that Suzy Kim’s Everyday Life in the North Korean Revolution, 1945-1950 must be considered.”

My first PC had a cyrix 333Mhz CPU. Ran just fine! But I was learning c in Borland turbo c and djgpp so it didn't have to do much. Running java on it... Well that wasn't fun with the 32MB RAM.

Worked on itanium too. It was more amazing Microsoft actually had support for it.

I don't know if this is just the start of a bigger thing, but this is nothing like 2008 for sure; in 2000 I was around but didn't work in tech directly so it affected me less. 2008 was a complete panic, people thought it was literally the end of the financial world as we know it, the market collapse was just the tip of the iceberg.

In 2008 I was working at a start-up that had plenty of cash, but pretty crappy investors who panicked and decided they want their money back, and through the board forced the company to basically shut down, didn't even pay us our last paycheck or the severance required by law in my country. So I found myself unemployed (with a baby BTW), my wife was also laid off, we pretty quickly had to withdraw money from our not-that-big savings, my company was car gone and I needed a new car, and no company around even thinking of hiring. It was extremely scary. I did some freelance work for a couple of months, then found a job at a pre-seed start-up that managed to scrape a couple hundred K somehow, and got by for a bit. After a year things started to turn around and things went great up until now. But it was really traumatic.

You can’t push certain kinds of content into a grey area on your services. Take a stand, treat everyone equally, and don’t put people in a position where they feel the need to literally figure out which one of your employees they need to fuck to get even treatment.

Apple shouldn’t be able to dictate the content and policies of other platforms. Some of the most bizarre forms of damage can only be inflicted by people trying to “do good”.
This doesn't really make any sense though. It changes nothing about the geopolitical reality of what's going on.

If the US sends a merchant ship and a cruiser, what is russia going to do exactly? Try to bomb the ships? They will lose, and get shot down.

Why would it suddenly be WWIII? Is russia really going to say "Well, they shot down our plane so its global thermonuclear war time".
The ISA wasn't that bad, but the weak memory-ordering model was a huge pain in the ass. I worked for a while with some of the Alpha folks years later, and they did a lot of really great work, but they did bring that weak memory model along with them. It allowed us to find many Linux kernel bugs that had lain dormant since Alpha because nothing since had repeated the mistake. Fun times ... not.
The cheap activated charcoal filters are bullshit.

You can't absorb things without absorbant mass. The black plastic sponge has hardly any mass at all, period.

I however do not have a good solution. I've DIY'd my own filter with charcoal pellets, but I've been unable to test it, and I'm somewhat unhappy with the design anyway.
I routinely unplug the TV - I’ve been in hotels where the TV has turned on at 3am (maybe post power cut) blaring out some noise.

Wifi is useful in situations like the hotel I was in last night - not a single bar of phone reception.

The thing I do want and is often missing is a socket near the bed so I can charge my phone but still have it next to me when the alarm goes off in the morning and I listen to the radio before getting out of bed.

90%+ of my hotel nights are for business purposes though.
You're talking about a resolution to conflict, not the lack of conflict. Voting with your feet is a great option if you have it. Not everyone thinks they do. Either way, the fact is that employers want the cheapest labor cost they can get while meeting their labor needs (rational decision) and labor wants the greatest salary they can negotiate (rational decision) and this puts them in adversarial positions. This doesn't mean street fights or even curse words get said, it's just a way of describing the situation accurately. When someone wants the opposite of you, you're adversaries.

Unions, like any general collection of people, will have good and bad actors leading to good or bad hierarchies. Your anecdote sounds like a shitty situation. Not every union is the same, and there are plenty of times when a union seems like more stress than it's worth for the people involved, and that's all fine.

To your anecdote about going to the store: Yes, I go to every store with the assumption that they will, through active or passive means, attempt to take as much money from me as they can. It's why I check sold prices vs advertised price, it's why I confirm I wasn't accidentally overcharged on my receipt. The company wants to make as much money as possible and I want to spend as little as possible, and those are both pretty rational positions.
MIT is a software license. Does it even give you rights to the images? Also I'm not positive that the owner of that repository was the one who created all of those images.

What do you mean by "upward"? If it's the classical meaning: you're not guaranteed to find smarter people higher in the organization.

They do, accessibility being one of them. Rendering math in the way you describe makes it difficult, or impossible, to understand for all sorts of audiences, including those relying on screen reading software.

We had the chance to open up and help substantially during the crazy 90s when the post-Soviet economies dropped GDPwise to the 1960s/1970s levels, average male life expectancy dropped by 10-12 years, life-savings were destroyed, criminals became ultra-rich and were welcomed in Zurich, New York and London with open arms. We did not.

We had the chance to open the EU and NATO towards the Russian in the 00s, even when the Russian came crawling to the Berlin Bundestag and suggested to draw a path towards this direction and were rejected hardly.

We had the chance for a compromise, e.g. through the Normandy format when ALL relevant parties agreed more or less except the Americans.

This all does not make the invasion right, but it is not as one-sided as the propaganda is showing it here right now. And this is why agree with your statement that real life is not not as simple as "good" and "bad", it is all just bad - on all sides.

And just another anecdote. As we are originally from Ukraine, I went down to the border with friends, money and cars and helped people at the border to make the right decisions. We mainly focussed on people withough language skills, old people and people with very very very little money. I had the chance to speak to hundreds of Ukranians crossing the border to the EU. 90% DO NOT CARE who "rules" them. They have their dreams, hopes, they have their apartments, their jobs, their pets, friends, homes... they just want this war to be over - even if Putin "wins".

When watching Western news and reports I dont see those opinions represented in the same way I experienced them when talking to people. I see stories about values and democracy and other philosophical stuff - and when they show Ukranians then it is not those who I have met.

Where is the opinion of the normal folks that I have met: the war should end asap, no matter who wins. Instead I feel spoon-fed that we HAVE TO PAY THE PRICE for $VALUES. And then you speak to people who have absolutly NO CLUE and NO RELATION to either Ukraine or even Russia and they are so opinionated and SOOOO SURE about the things that must be done and the price that has to be paid.

I feel very frustrated and I stopped telling people about my experience at the border or here when volunteering and ACTUALLY speaking to the REAL people.
If you vacuum seal it with mylar lined bags and some oxygen absorbers, it can last up to 5 years, which is a long time.

Oxygen will get through normal plastic vacuum sealing bags and ruin the taste and eventually nutritional content otherwise after a year or two. Mylar lining stops most of that and the oxygen absorber gets the rest.

The thick bags will also stop rice moths from getting through (they are able to get through most cardboard and thin plastic bags), and the lack of oxygen will stop their eggs from hatching.
Where do you get that anyone wants to strip anyone's rights away from within this conversation?

We're talking about laws, which generally bind individuals to certain behaviors. Laws do not make rights as far as I'm aware (and IANAL), they are "God-given." At least in US legal tradition, as I understand, the default position of the law is that you are allowed to do anything which does not infringe on anyone else's enumerated rights, and laws can only bind you from doing things which you would otherwise be free to do in the absence of those laws.

If the laws which bind our behaviors are so complex they cannot be read aloud in their totality in any practical time period then how is anyone (let alone anyone whose profession is not "the law" or acting in legislature) ever to be expected to understand them as a whole? (Especially when certain laws have traditionally gone unenforced, to borrow from the original context of this thread.)

The law should be possible to understand. That is a decent aspirational goal. I'm not sure what you think I meant but it's not what you said.
Amazing, gonna have to add that one to the list of great single purpose sites.

What happens if you can't comply due to sheer difficulty? Like if your design simply does not allow you to target a specific user at a technical level. Are you forced to shut down your company or something?
Even a 20% cut tells you that management is incompetent. If you're a CEO and you can cut 20% of your staff without destroying the business, why on earth did you hire all those extra people and add all that expense in the first place?

Put another way, if you couldn't staff right in the good times, why would remaining employees trust that your "one big cut" will work now? Hint: they won't

I propose that this issue be affected in a different manner; through legislation to make companies and the executive level personally liable for any and all damages due to breaches, to an extreme level to motivate the companies and people to alter their positions on these matters.

I get that people have this desire to impose their assistance on others by testing and revealing security vulnerabilities, however, how would you like if someone knocked on your door one day and said, "hey, I was checking out all your doors and windows last night while you were sleeping and hacked into your security system, and thought you should know that it's all suuuuuuper insecure." I doubt most of us would appreciate that either.

What we really really dealing with here is an abuse by the companies/services, where they have externalized the cost/risk of security vulnerabilities in lieu of profits and exec bonuses. If they had to internalize the risks/costs through my proposed damages, they would be quite motivated to prioritize even paying for white hat pen testing type activities, or even just opening up avenues for reporting and rewarding.

I want anyone in the world to have access to my home computer and printer when I authorize it. Right now, to do that I have to configure my router as well as my operating system to allow it. But what if I'm not at home? I might be on someone else's network. Now I am at their mercy to configure the router so that my computer is accessible. In all likelihood, they will refuse to help me.
That's fair, I can see how any kind of more advanced filtering than "just block incoming SYN packets" would require state, but at least it's optional.
For various reasons, we provide our own apt repo: https://caddyserver.com/docs/install#debian-ubuntu-raspbian

Biggest reason is that debian's packaging requirements are way too much of a burden for us to conform to, especially for Go apps. And they update way too slow for us to be comfortable with.
> “This is a capitalist country. The government does not make baby formula, nor should it. Companies make baby formula.”

Singapore would disagree that government manufacture of baby formula represents socialism. The government can do what it wants without impairing the market. Where socialism comes in is when the government intervenes to protect its baby formula industry, by barring competitors from participating in the market or by subsidizing its own formula manufacture with tax revenues.
It's usually a safety feature. If there is a downed power line and you lose grid connection, energizing your (otherwise dead) side of the downed lines could easily kill the lineman who comes to fix it.
For labor, yes. For ownership/management, literally the opposite.

OP was just pointing out why management is typically opposed to unions, since raising labor costs hurts the share of the profit to be given to ownership/management, they didn't seem to be weighing in on whether that increase in cost was a net good or bad.
I feel like you're asking for medical advice.

But, no, I haven't personally experienced irregular heart-beat followed by low blood pressure, but I also don't regularly monitor those metrics beyond my smartwatch. Consuming too much caffeine, for me, just results in the regularly reported side effects. I do choose not to drink too much after 3 PM due to the long (5 hr) half-life/improved sleep quality.
It didn't die.

Intel bought it from HP, stripped it for parts, then killed it.

HyperTransport and a few other things were essentially just copies of Alpha's stuff cleanroom implemented by ex-Alpha employees. Designs like Sandy Bridge look quite similar to EV8. QuickPath is just Alpha's interconnect with some updates (HyperTransport was also a cleanroom copy from ex-Alpha employees). Even AVX seems inspired by the 1048-bit SIMD planned for EV9/10.
Nah, just tune down your performance. Work on a side-project you like to work on for 50% of the time. You can do so without guilt because you'll still outperform 90% of your peers.
> I know this thing better than you

Whenever I hand code over I ask, does it make sense? Usually they say something like, yep looks easy.

I used to think it was because I was a dumb ass and only wrote simple stuff, but finally realized it's because I spend large effort on making the code read like english. (Good function names, good variable names, code that looks like logical short sentences, etc.)

All this to say, if you make code it's own wiki, you can avoid "I know this thing better than you" quite effectively, and complex code can be made to seem quite simple.

You may already doing that, but thought I'd share in case it's helpful in any way!
It has been around for a while as far as I know, I was introduced to the concept back in the '80s. It was called "cat belling." Memory leaks and memory pressure, frame rate drops (it was especially useful for that), texture loads & swaps, game AI processing. We used it for determing if the game was executing correctly by how often it passed certain check points in the code. Also tracking the number of sprites in play vs the number on-screen. You could listen for the rhythm of the various sections of the code, in what was to most people, a cacophony of noise.

After thought: I should probably try and work some of that concept in to my next music track release.

Yes, his income increases by whatever the value of the ball is when he takes ownership of the ball and he deducts the same amount when he donates it to a 501c3. How else could that possibly work?

Obviously, the deduction cannot reach any of his other income, because it is, by definition, consumed by the value of the ball.

I think that we are about to see a new strain of F/LOSS motivations and advocacy emerge, centered on human rights and political freedom, anti-surveilance, privacy, resilience, and so on.

while it seems that way initially the reality is more complex. waves of repossession means waves of employees who cant get to work anymore. repossessions arrive on your credit history as a major blemish, meaning you cant get credit for a new car. your credit card interest goes up as a result, unemployment ticks steadily up as well until the market reacts parasitically, and eventually the car you picked up for loan balance cant go for even a fraction of that because of the surprise 1.6 trillion dollar recession you triggered.

its more palatable to subsidize these dicey loans (as we did in 2008) then come to jesus with the grim reality of following the letter of the lender instead of the spirit of the loan.
