Sure, but I think there were some studies that looked at adherence and it didn't seem different to other diets there as well - but I could be misremembering.

That being said - this is highly individual stuff - even if something doesn't work for 99% of people - it doesn't matter if it works for you - and it's easy to try.

It's just important to have realistic expectations about these things, because overhyping tends to lead to motivation spikes - you get enthusiastic and then you get disappointed and crash to 0.
Yeah exactly. The steel resists the tensile forces and the concrete resists the compressive forces.

Concrete is very weak in tension. That's why it's basically never used without steel reinforcement. I think increasing the tensile strength is mainly useful to prevent cracking which looks bad and can allow water to get to the steel.
> Pushing even more people into giant SUVs isn't good.

Yeah, see, that's not a good-faith response. The choice is not "ride noisy motorcycles" or "everyone rides giant SUVs"
> DCA, which is almost always a sensible investment strategy.

It might make more sense to lump-sum invest, if volatility is small relative to the return.

At least for the stock market, it's not often worth sitting on cash.
So far. If you spend any time in the research community you’ll realise that those problems are very likely to get solved. Lightning alone probably gets us there.

Its volatility and UX, as well as how negatively it is perceived currently (by some people) look like bigger blockers to me.
If you make the statement that you're a "10x developer" then there's a high chance you're not really.

It smacks of arrogance and lack of humility, as a "10x developer" is really a fantastic communicator and "people person" who can accelerate the entire team's productivity through improving business relationships. The type of person who could quickly unblock the team through one phone call or message.
I think calling the book controversial is too strong. Maybe "highly romanticised" (as quoted in the above rather good BBC culture article) is a better description.

The "Legends of the Samurai" book sounds interesting and worth a read too.

My take: Just read, make up your own mind, disregard labels like controversial, westernized, etc. Those come off as trying to tell me what one should read and what one should not read, which should raise alarm-bells.
It's dangerous to play roulette, unless you know what you're doing...
Before you all flip your shit and accuse them of everything evil in the world (when really, their video player is worse than all of it combined), as it stands, this looks much more like a bug than intended malice, and reddit admins seem to confirm it : https://www.reddit.com/r/help/comments/us8i9a/old_reddit_on_...

New reddit also doesn't properly fetch your default subreddits. Something is screwed with their entire auth system.

Going to new reddit and refreshing and going back to old does work. Additionally, if logged in, just tick the "use old reddit experience" option in settings and you have old reddit, everywhere.
You can grep for todo in your codebase. It will list them.
Do you have a strategy of selling on the peaks (possibly even buying on the lows with some of the proceeds) to eventually exit while ahead or are you just holding because you have a strong belief that it can only rise in future and it's not worth following the day to day drama (as many do with stocks)?

Either way, you personally benefit from belief in Bitcoin and crypto being generally positive, which has implications for your objectivity even if well meaning.
In addition to this - having people "around" you - does not negate the fact, that you still can be lonely
Honestly I'm a little skeptical that it will work out.

They're building custom train cars ($$$) that will generally serve people who are visitors to Paris (otherwise why would you pay extra for a hotel night on a train from a city that you live in, and not fly discount airlines instead?).

The trains will be in operation only 50% duty cycle (the train arrives in the morning, so I suppose it takes the return journey that evening and not immediate turnaround), since the outbound was 13 hours.

I'm guessing the tickets will be quite premium priced to make it profitable.
20-30 years in tech (depending how you count), and still a "beginner" at a large number of things. That feeling shouldn't go away.

8-14 years is not junior, it is mid-level.

The author has established a strong reputation in their current company. Again, mid-level, looking at jumping to senior level.

Post struck me as self-reflective and referring to observable metrics, also phrased as benchmarking their interpretation of those benchmarks vs the HN community. Humility is hard.

I meant anti-social to non-skateboarders, as in anti-social behaviour.

"Environmental antisocial behaviour is when a person’s actions affect the wider environment, such as public spaces or buildings."

We have skate parks, but skateboarders would come and do tricks on our hill while filming themselves, plus there were a few people who used them for commuting at the dead of night.

Cities can be surprisingly silent at the dead of night, someone riding along on a skateboard makes a huge amount of noise and as they're going slowly, for quite a long time.
> But when you buy a print from the artist, you're paying for that signature that says "#3 of 100." There's nothing stopping the artist from printing more, and there's nothing stopping random people from duplicating the print, but we're comfortable with the idea that a signature confers a "uniqueness" to the print that makes it valuable.

I'll bite: I also find 'limited editions' with no unique characteristic to be idiotic.

If they have some unique characteristics, whether it's a LE book with a different cover illustration and fancy binding or a LE Ferrari with a specially-tuned V12, then they're actually rare objects and it's fine.

But if your artist's print is 100% identical except for that "#3 of 100" signature, I wouldn't pay one more cent for the privilege of owning that signature. Same with autographs on books or CD/vinyl covers. Picasso and Hendrix were interesting people and artists, but there is nothing particularly interesting about their signatures and they don't improve the painting or CD in any way *.

Paying hundreds of dollars for a perfectly ordinary book that some sweaty fan brought to an exhausted author at an event to have him quickly scribble "John Q. Author" on it is, in my opinion, exactly as pointless as paying hundreds of dollars for a NFT of that book.

* Some trivial exceptions: if a painting's author is disputed, the signature can help solve the dispute. And some artists do have interesting signatures (e.g. Dali). For the vast majority of 'limited prints' neither consideration applies.
"Crypto’s detractors have long argued that it is useless—unless you are a money-launderer or con-artist—and predicted its demise."

What a piece of opinion. So not overgeneralizing and down to earth.
It's just dumb, really. Just make an "international" version and ship it from one EU country.

I can understand not shipping to a "untrustworthy" country like Romania or Poland (lol), but Sweden, Italy, Belgium? Even they register for mail forwarding services in order to buy from Germany (and before, UK).

It's much easier to buy from AliExpress, the CCP can't believe their luck with us drowning ourselves in redundant regulations while producing there because of lack of them.

On that note, Russia makes 2/3 of the world's nuclear power plants and they built this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crimean_Bridge in THREE YEARS. We can't manage a stupid river bridge for the same budget in a decade.
Huge? It generates noise, as most activities in a city generate noise. Yeah, grinding on rails can be noisy, kicking the board can be noisy but huge amount of noise is a tad much...

I feel that if you live in a city you either understand that it's going to be somewhat noisy or you'll go insane, skateboarding generates much less noise than any street traffic.
I will never read "Africa" and not roll my eyes. The trials are set to take place in literally just two countries! Every single use of the word seems to perpetuate the stereotype that the entire continent is ravished by famine and disease.

I think Justine goes like on an inward self search or something for personally echoing creative landmarks in the overall late eighties early nineties PC scene, the posts we're all eagerly waiting for, and when she finds one then just stops waiting :-)

Very inspiring overall, I'm eagerly waiting for the next one, but in the meantime let me enjoy this one.

Wireguard gives you an interface like any other network interface.

You manage the traffic the same way you would manage a physical network. That's the whole point.

The actual complaint here is that wireguard isn't productized in a way that produces clearly visible metrics.

I'm sure this author would be absolutely thrilled at a wireguard SaaS product that provides "observability" and "traceability" to meet "KPIs" or whatever.
I am so glad, that new redesign probably saved me hundreds of hours of free time, now I cringe every time I have to use Reddit, pretty radical productivity boost.
That's mostly self imposed legal and paper work. They could ship the German version EU wide, but they don't. Because they want to "provide the best experience". You know what would be the best experience? Buying the damn thing without paying extra for mail forwarding.

"Web3" is just a new label to make it seem like the same old bullshit is somehow novel and revolutionary.

First "blockchain" was the future, it was the next big thing, it was a revolution, it was going to change everything, you'd be a fool not to get involved. Sure, there might not be a lot there yet, but it's like the Internet in 1994 - this is only the beginning!

If they were still saying the same things about "blockchain" then people would notice that these lofty promises have delivered nothing for ten years. But give it a sexy new name like "Web3" and now it feels new again, even though nothing has changed, and they can continue to entice people in with the same old promises. Sure, Web3 doesn't seem to have produced much yet, but this is only the beginning. It's like the Internet in 1994!
Yes but those dangers are the dangers of radioactive material - it's naturally 'hot', much of it also chemically toxic, etc. It's not core-at-criticality-that-murders-you-as-you-stand-next-to-it type of dangerous. I think that's still an essentially hypothetical danger of nuclear space junk.
bitcoin != crypto

Right, e-banking is crypto.

The field of Speculative Blockchain solutions is a tiny part of crypto. But your examples sound like they either are or anchor to speculative Blockchains so Bitcoin is the leading implementation of infrastructure for your examples.

You can comment from the old interface just fine. I use the old interface without going to old.reddit.com - there's a toggle in the settings to stick to the old design. The only time you need to use the old.reddit URL is when you aren't logged in but then you can't comment anyway.

Sounds like a good time to cruise and work on side projects. Honestly these companies don’t give a shit about you (they’ll cut you without remorse when it’s time, it’s just business bro) so why not treat it like a money printer? If you’re feeling stuck and not progressing, either use your learning tools to level up or build a side business or projects.

Im in the same boat with a similar TC. I am burned out from working with promotion driven colleagues who suck at computer science / engineering (btw some of these people are either FANG or ex FANG) and try to incorporate some fancy way of doing something simple that ends up becoming a spaghetti nightmare. Who cares? As long as you’re in good standing with people who matter just let them hear what they want to hear.

Imo this is the most true neutral stance.
An excellent list, to which I would add barking dogs.
cf the story of the first ARM dev board running off leakage without any direct current.

https://www.theregister.com/Print/2012/05/03/unsung_heroes_o...

“The development board plugged the chip into had a fault: there was no current being sent down the power supply lines at all. The processor was actually running on leakage from the logic circuits. So the low-power big thing that the ARM is most valued for today, the reason that it's on all your mobile phones, was a complete accident."

Yep, what I get from the explanation is that they don't do a manual screenshot but a software pulls the tweet from Twitter's API and generates it.

If I had to guess, to be consistent with other screenshots, match TV resolution and shape, transparency or backgrounds, and maybe have a trail log of how and when that screenshot was generated.
Crazy how small the PDP-11 is. 4096 words, 18 bits per word. One register, but the memory locations are called "registers".

From the table on page 17 it looks like all cells are two words, but strangely they all start on an odd address, rather than an even address.

Regular pointers seem to be tagged with a high bit of 0, while pointers to atoms (strings) have a high bit of 1. There may be other tags, couldn't find an explanation of the tagging. Probably there is at least one for integers? No support for floating point.

The atom/string is just a chain of conses, where the car is 3 characters packed into one 18 bit word, and the cdr is the next part of the chain. Since there's no space for a tag in the car that explains why bad stuff happens if you take the car of an atom.

There's a garbage collector in the program listing. It is described as non-compacting, which makes sense if all objects have the same size - no fragmentation possible, and allocation is just unlinking from the freelist. No description of how the GC works.

On page 12 there is also a routine for manually unlinking things to reuse their storage, so perhaps GC can be postponed with manual memory management.
> Debuggers aren't very good at handling this situation. Because once the control flow jumps to the NULL page, you'd need to find a way to rewind execution history to figure out how it got there.

If there would be a huge peak, like $200k, I would sell, but generally I don’t believe I can compete with the hedge funds trading Bitcoin, so it’s the second. The only exception was the Bitcoin Cash hard fork, that I strongly opposed as it was being pushed by companies so aggressively even though there was no rough consensus reached, while segregated witness fork contained several critical bug fixes for Bitcoin. I sold all my Bitcoin Cash instantly for about 0.13 BCH/BTC exchange rate.
Aside, he was accused of plagiarising Chariots of Fire from this Greek tv series theme (coming out a few years earlier):

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Oti6lkzgH0

He did know and was friends with the composer (also very talented), my guess is Vangelis just heard it at some point and picked up the theme's feel and basic style, and subconsciously copied it. It happens. His version is better imho.
"A sound meter records vehicles passing by. If it captures a sound at least 50 feet away that is above 85 decibels — for reference, that’s around the sound of a blender or a lawn mower — a camera records images of the vehicle’s license plate."

Surveillance is a good thing when it's used to punish people who annoy me. Hopefully once the system is in place they'll be able to improve the technology to detect anybody who endangers the public by speaking a banned word or phrase.
I think that is misreading the original comment.

Skateboarding is antisocial because skateboarders are inflicting a noisy hobby on the neighbors. It has nothing to do with whether the skateboarder will make friends or not.
all the debate in sibling threads makes me want to put up some mics and some classification system to try and determine what the "answer" is in different cities and areas.

There's definitely noises everywhere, but I recently saw a clip of Paris doing a carfree zone thing and it was _sooooo_ quiet, it makes me think that basically cars are the thing that do most of the damage.
I'm not sure if you joke.

Not perfect but an inverted map helped me think about this boat centric view of the world:

https://www.werkaandemuur.nl/nl/shopwerk/De-Omgekeerde-Werel...

If you imagine the sea as very mountainous land, where people live by the coast it kind of works except for the ability to travel directly "through" the mountains. Though I think for many places, skating along the coast is enough to see how people would have moved.
Cool, together with the planned offerings of the austrian railway it seems the Europe wide night lines will finally be reality... I really hope they will also finally tackle the complicated mess of buying cross boarder train tickets within the EU... vienna -> paris, a day in paris, and then paris -> porto seems nice :)
For most purposes, it's enough to know that the money you put there could go to zero. Which means that you shouldn't invest in crypto anything whose losing would take a psychological toll if you lose (let alone investing money that you need for mortgage, etc. as seen in the Luna subreddit).

Then beyond that, the more information, the better, but the rest is not essential.
> Which do you suppose is the bigger problem in food information: dishonest vegans—0.5% of the US population

Being a small share of the population doesn't mean they're invisible or silent. Here on the UK my leftist self that far too often reads the Guardian, one of the biggest newspaper in the nation, there's many times a week an article advocating the vegan diet. One of the two resident recipe writers only prints vegan recipes. I'm pretty sure it's newspaper policy never to print any diet related news that's not vegan-favourable, I guess it's their way of "changing the world". It's conquered a large part of the popular opinion, even though as you suggest the percentage of actual vegans might be very small.

As a meat eater that is non indifferent to the ecological issues we're facing, and believes the vegan diet NOT to be the answer, I would appreciate a more educated and reasoned approach to a hairy question than the constant evangelizing and ignorant repetition of meat bad, vegan good.

Which that is not Bitcoin and neither is it on-chain.

The parent comment is correct on Bitcoin's failure as a peer-to-peer electronic cash system and all it is instead, is a store of value. This is how you know it has failed in its intended purpose.
I used to run some pretty decently sized forums and did paid jobs customising forums for various niche hobbies. I’ve had more emails in the last 6 months asking me to help old forums get going again, than I’ve had in the last 5-6 years combined.

Most are going Discourse or Vanilla, some are wanting more custom things these days. All are saying that their userbase (that previously migrated to Reddit) are all crying out for an off-Reddit solution.

Reddit did a Digg, which is endlessly hilarious.
I think other responses to this thread are insightful, offer valuable ways forward and get at the heart of the matter but I wanted to add one idea that I don't think gets enough traction which is that being a "10x" developer is highly context dependent and is not a fundamental attribute of a person.

Deep familiarity within a code base provides the knowledge to recognize, diagnose and fix problems at a rate that's orders of magnitude faster than someone who isn't. Familiarity with tools, corporate structure, programming idioms, toolchains or other technical factors also provide potential orders of magnitude speedup.

Take a "10x" developer in one context, put them in another, and they can easily become a "1/10x" developer. One company I worked for hired an intern that had created a well used FOSS package with 10k+ GitHub stars. Though a bit of a stretch to my argument, there are other anecdotes about corporations mishandling productive programmers [0]. My point is not to lash companies too harshly but to point out that the incentives are misaligned for the skillset these programmers have versus what skillset companies need and/or are willing to pay for.

My bet is that there's probably a small army of programmers that basically do mundane "1x" programming but create FOSS packages that generate millions in worth (that is, they are "10x" outside of the confines a corporate environment).

As an aside, I'll mention a talk about "The Ideal Language to Write Open Source Software" [1]. On the face of it, it sounds absurd but the argument is essentially that corporate environments select for programming languages that don't need deep proficiency whereas open source software projects select for programmers with deep comprehension of their tools. In other words, corporate environments select for programmer fungability whereas open source software projects, since they often only have a single developer, select for languages that offer high productivity gains from expertise.
