I had a cycling accident where I misjudged how tight a corner was, ran off the path, high sided and head planted into a tree.
I wasn't going fast, maybe 10mph, but clearly too fast for the corner. First injury in over 15 years of cycling. Nobody else involved, indeed, nobody else in earshot, let alone cars.

My friend was cycling up a hill on a cycle route and his handlebars fell apart. Not sure why, think it was metal fatigue - they split down the fork. He woke up on the floor with his helmet in tens of pieces and with no idea what happened.

Things can just go wrong quickly on two wheels, and the outcome is often smashing your head on something.

Most software things become simple when you can define them down into an enumeration of possibilities.

For example, if my text problem were "display these preformatted strings in a single resolution and layout" there would be no requirement on their encoding or processing and I could do whatever I like, even hardcode them or store them as image assets. Games have done this trick since forever because they have a tremendous capacity to soak up more and more static content, and much of the core tech in a game engine is in finding the ideal representations to efficiently load and present that content while carefully minimizing the dynamic behavior that would entail a general-purpose solution.

The problem for software in the larger view of things is always that we've defined the problem with sufficient generality that it has to accommodate all the depth, because we don't know who is using the software or what they want from it. The medium is never "set in stone" so the tools are forever adapting to a new use case. And just when you think you've modelled every possible aspect of the data, some other way of doing it will come up.

And it's not a right thing either to think "OK, I'll just solve the most general thing I can think of now so that I don't deal with it later" because then you just have a wide field of untested edge cases and no coverage of the thing you didn't anticipate.

Like, take image editing software as an example. They all let you draw things freehand. Many support pressure sensitive stylus input. But the way they interpret that input is all over the map: different sensitivity curves, stabilization algorithms, brush behaviors and so on. There's no winning the battle by defining the most general engine for freehand drawing and painting, because what the user craves most of all here is the path to "just works" defaults. Thus in every sufficiently developed editor, an enumeration of possibilities appears again, but as a configuration letting you browse presets.
In other words, headers should represent interfaces, and implementations should include the headers of the interfaces they depend on. It makes no sense to include headers in your implementation's interface definition, when these are specific to the implementation and not its interface. This should have been common sense.
As one of those people who also uses "godbolt" as a verb, I am very grateful for the time Matt and the other contributors are pouring into CE. It's awesome to see this project flourish!
"In absolute terms, more people were killed in a car accident (237) than in a bicycle accident (203) last year, but this is different per kilometre travelled. Traffic mortality per billion vehicle-km was much higher among cyclists than among passenger car occupants (11 versus 1.6 deaths)." (https://www.cbs.nl/en-gb/news/2020/31/decline-in-road-fatali...)

I find the advice 'all sun exposure is bad' pretty unhelpful. It is on the same level as teaching abstinence as sex education.

Is there really evidence that someone that slowly builds up a tan during spring has a higher risk of skin cancer than someone who doesn't?

I can't really imagine how you could study that in a controlled way.
There's also the file system cache to consider, which Kafka famously leans on heavily for IO performance. If the majority of your consumers are reading the latest messages which were just written, these will likely come from the cache which is in memory. A consumer reading from the earliest messages on a large topic could conceivably cause changes to what's available from file system cache for other consumers reading from the latest messages, so they're not necessarily totally isolated. I've not taken measurements of this though to say it's an actual issue, just saying that I wouldn't dismiss it.
Hi all, the author of ThisImageDoesnotExist here - thanks for all the great feedback!
I've just added a few dozens of human-generated images and improved the randomization logic.

I purposely don't pick up a basket, let alone a cart, when shopping but bring my own bag or better yet, go without out if I'm just getting something quick. It's very easy to come out every time with food you don't need but the supermarket has placed so perfectly to tempt you. Yes I get strange looks laden with bread and bananas and whathaveyou cradled in my arms but it's a proven money saver when I can't easily pick up that delicious box of somethings as well as keep the necessities.
But only the wheels you need, when you need them. Don’t carry the overhead unless needed.
Because it's obvious to anybody. It's also obvious that modern humans are far less exposed to UV than our ancestors, who pretty much lived like current days hobos spending most of their time on fresh air.

I remember reading with surprise that the Motorola 68040 CPU, which was competing with the Intel 486, could have run hotter but at a faster coock speed -- but Motorola didn't want to specify the use of a heat sink. Seems like quite a change!
What an unusual departure from their previous generation. The prosumer and just-below HEDT market loved the Ryzen chips for their generous amount of PCIe lanes. The x670 looks to - confusingly - reduce CPU-available lanes/slots and risk contention on the chipset for peripherals and storage. No one will want to debug a daisy chained M.2 or USB 4.0 connection suddenly slowing down.

If true and it's also true that the non-Pro Threadripper line is gone, this leaves a large gap for Intel to exploit with Alder Lake X. The Threadripper line's 60+ lanes of PCIe effectively took over the HEDT market. Intel not only couldn't compete on performance, but for storage arrays, ML workstations, other important niches, they were the only viable option.

I'm hoping the rumors of Threadripper's demise are wrong, and both Intel & AMD are able to compete in the space. That's best for consumers, not this alternating pendulum. (See: Threadripper price hikes.)
I don’t understand what point you are trying to make.

Specific stocks being bad investments is not an argument against passive investing. The whole point of index funds is to diversify your portfolio so you track the overall market, not any specific stock or group of stocks.

If you are assuming you know which stocks/sectors are under or overvalued, then I guess active investing makes sense, but that seems like a flawed premise to start from.

Either way, discrimination is wrong. And if we’re following the science, then those who recovered from Covid didn’t need to be vaccinated, so discriminating against them isn’t scientific. It’s a prejudice
I'm also incredibly bearish on CA and left for good last year. The quality of life per dollar is just so incredibly skewed, and the monoparty culture perpetuates terrible policies that will continue to strangle the state.

I left the city for the mountains (tahoe) in 2020, and it felt much more reasonable, but with the forest fires getting worse every year living in nature there feels even more hopeless.

I'm back in the midwest, and my plan is to buy a huge plot of land and build a house that is off grid w/ it's own water supply. The system is in a slow state of collapse, and every year people just paper over what's right in front of us. I think CA right now is a leading indicator.

Shit is gonna get weird over the next decade.
I've had quail, deer, mice, raccoons, coyotes, moles, hawks, snakes, lizards, bees, wabbits, squirrels, gophers ground beavers, bobcats, owls, and even eagles hanging out on my property. I'm in the middle of the metropolitan area, too. I don't mind them :-/ A couple years ago a coyote mom decided the front yard was the perfect place for her to watch her 7 pups grow up. She'd keep a weather eye on me, and I enjoyed watching them.

A couple months ago a coyote decided to poop on my front door. Obviously, it was sending a message, but I'm not sure what it was.

I agree. It’s weird to me though that you would use pure math to prove that point.

We need a huge infrastructure of reusing and recycling batteries, specially when we won't have enough materials to make all the cars the people demands in a few years. Isn't just to make the manufacturing process more ecological, is also the scarcity of the finite world we live in.

Carlos Tavares, president of the Stellantis automotive group:

“We will have around 2025 or 2026 a short supply of batteries, and if there is no short supply of batteries then there will be a significant dependence of the western world vis-à-vis Asia.”

I agree with a lot of what you said. Though you may want to look into AWS EFS a sit has opened up a whole bunch of use cases that were previously very difficult with AWS. You can also use Lambda with VPC Endpoints to make the network distance to DynamoDB more efficient.

But yeah, if latency between servers is a concern of your's than Lambda is not the best. But for a different reason than you described, I think it is the lack of ability to have a long running network connection that is the hurdle there since handshakes take time.

Didn't mean to imply it is a free lunch either. But I do think it should be most people's default. The goal should not be to be free it should be to provide high availability and reasonable performance for minimal cost. And in my experience Serverless does that very well.
And yet...

The US tried /extremely/ hard to take 'color-blindness' as the solution to centuries of explicit racism. And it failed rather completely. There's two effects at play: a) the 'true' racists learned how to keep being horrible without ever explicitly talking about race, and b) we wound up with lots of 'data gaps' around race by ignoring real differences. This data gap is arguably at the root of what's called structural racism.

(Incidentally, an incredibly similar dynamic has played out with the rights of women. I'm currently reading Caroline Criado-Perez's 'Invisible Women' which is about a huge range of areas where the 'default' is male, and the resulting gaps in data about women lead to poor outcomes.)

So I'd say the article points to a particular kind of structural racism: That the medical advice for white people is assumed to also be good for people of color.
“What if it changes?”
TL;DR It probably wouldn't happen literally, but any local community is too small and interdependent.

I've never actually seen this threat "executed": the rules are all unwritten, but most people get a clue when reminded or lectured. My friend once wanted to skate in a broken helmet - it literally saved his life a few days before. We had a cute argument, he said it's not really broken if he only hit his head very lightly (so "lightly", he actually had a slight neck pain). I told him I'd buy that broken helmet from him at a full price, just so he doesn't use it, he wouldn't believe me until I took €150 out of my pocket. Eventually he agreed to not be an idiot ;)

If you'd insist on not wearing a helmet? On an official event, you'd probably get removed, possibly banned from future events. You need a sticker with your number on the helmet, so you wouldn't make it as far as the start line. I guess on an unofficial freeride, you just wouldn't get invited again - it's all invite only to begin with, and doesn't make much sense unless you have at least 3-4 people participating; someone needs to shuttle, you split the gas cost, sometimes you need spotters, etc. Randoms on a local spot? You either already know them (so you are allowed to yell at them), or they're new, so you make friends and they get a mentor.
According to the article the alternative treatment is ineffective (vitamin D supplements) and increases risk factors for higher mortality rate diseases. I'd say that's pretty far from the superior treatment.
Oops, yes, that's what I meant. Thanks for catching that!

This is as much a comment to myself as to you or anyone else (I've got some similar hoarding tendencies): it really doesn't matter.

I had a realisation the other day - it happened after I accidentally perma-deleted my Wallabag install. I was sad for about 5 minutes that those hundreds of "read later" articles weren't ever going to get read later - and then this was followed by the most immense relief.

I'm going to try and apply this sense of cathartic relief to the rest of my over-bloated, never-looked-at, just-no-time storage. I've got a feeling the act of deleting it all is going to hurt like hell for a short while and then it'll feel like a huge weight lifted.

I'm never going to be short of things to read or watch, and life is way too short.
MachO uses codesigning with adhoc signatures as a form of checksumming, and there’s also TCP and whatever drives do. So it’s the converse, it’s so common the dedicated hardware does it instead of the CPU. And it’s not all the same algorithm.

Ok, on a serious note: Start a new bookmark thing, take some time to briefly gaze over what you have and duplicate the good stuff in the new thing.

In hindsight it's pretty easy to see what your folder names should have been.

Before I would just save the bookmarks as some kind of html document and name the folder after the year. It's not that useful for things you want to use frequently which is... well.. what you use most frequently.
Came here to say this sounds like hoarding behavior. To OP: do you also have problems accumulating physical things, organizing them, being unable to discard anything?

For your online stuff, I'd do a mass delete of anything over 90 days old (or pick some other cutoff). You just have accept what's already obvious: you're never going to go through all of it, so why keep it?

Hey! This is actually a website of mine, so I appreciate the feedback. About the price, any alternative or similar products' memberships cost around double (if not more) for often less features, so I'd say the pricing is actually quite low.
For the costs, I would say S3 for the assets is the biggest one, at least with the current 150-200,000 monthly users. The actual art as well is a cost since it's all original, but that can vary if say we don't add any new set for a month, which has happened only one time.
Thanks again for the feedback!
Most of the money for homeless outreach is pork. We refuse to force people into mental care facilities and drug rehab when they are in desperate need. Instead its just a stack of bandaids one on top of the next. It’s just a million here, a million there, and nobody has the political capital to kill projects that yield no results.
PSA: If you have a 3-5 year-old child who isn't yet reading independently, you don't need any special training to teach them to read English.

Just 15 mins per day a few days per week, and a single book: Teach Your Child to Read in 100 Easy Lessons https://www.amazon.com/dp/0671631985/

The only requirements are that you can read, and can spare 15 mins per day. I guess that applies to ~100% of HN readers.

You could rely on your kid's school to teach them to read, but learning to read with 1:1 direct instruction is just so efficient.

I've posted about this book on HN before (and I myself first read about it here). Here's an excerpt from an email an HN user sent me recently:

"Last year, I bought the book for
my 4 year old and we slowly worked through it. Now he can read about
as well as his 8 year old friends."
The last two winters I’ve had some really bad mental problems. Two winters ago I spent savings and that night booked a morning flight to Florida, which helped a lot. The second time I didn’t have money to blow so I told my wife I was leaving and going to Florida, got in the car and turned off my phone (it was more traumatic and not a good time, she was very upset about me effectively abandoning her and our children. And I was effectively insane for the next two hours, which is good because if I had been thinking clearly I could have booked a flight and ended up 1500 miles away with no plan). About an hour of driving later I snapped out of it, but I’m pretty sure the lack of sunlight where I live in the winter is making me go crazy.
> that have caused most problems?

In the case of Virginia Raggi, people believed her lies about "not trying to win the candidacy to the Olimpic games because they are all about corruption and stealing from the taxpayers"

For a little time it worked, but it was simply to hide her incompetence as administrator.

She spent 5 years in the office arguing over minutia, while the important stuff was left there to rot.

From subway stairs that have been broken for over a year to buses catching fire[1] to unkempt public gardens.

Her political identity has been inaction: to hide her lack of competence she found refuge in doing nothing of importance, taking credit for everything good happening that was planned before she was elected! while also blaming those before her when something went wrong (it happened literally everyday!).

So routinely things like this happened [2] because she could not afford to take counter measures, every group could say "we put you there" and she had no interest in doing what's best for Rome, only what's best for her.

In the end even those that gained from her election realized that a city like Rome needs a good administrator, because even if we call it "the eternal city", neglect can do a lot of damages in a very short time.

This has happened a number of times in this country. One major example is MLM, which was fully legitimized in 70s and 80s, after spending some time in a legal gray area. Ever since, the industry has expanded, even though it largely functions as wealth transfer from late arrivals to early incumbents, with a sprinkling of sustainable external commerce.
