File systems need backward compatibility. 40 years ago, it wasn’t clear people gonna invent Internet and start moving files across time zones. Keeping file modification time according to local clock was reasonable idea at that time.

The FAT file system (1977) stores local time, and no time zones. CDFS a.k.a. ISO 9660 (designed in 1986) was better than FAT but still less than ideal, it keeps local time, and offset in 15 minutes intervals between local time and GMT. That’s not generally convertible to UTC either.

Windows NT came with the proper file system which keeps time in UTC (also high-resolution, 100 nanoseconds versus 2 second in FAT) but most people only upgraded to NT and NTFS in 2002 with WinXP, and various external drives were still using older file systems without UTC timestamps.

.NET only dropped the support of Windows 9.x in .NET 3.0 (2006), and even afterwards they probably wanted to support all these external drives. Including timestamps of the files on these drives.
I read this article a couple years ago and it definitely influenced my thoughts on the matter.

I think this is yet another case of us collectively ignoring common sense. We know that UV radiation is damaging to the skin and can cause skin cancer. Instead of rubbing chemicals on our skin to negate these effects, it is better to avoid being out in direct sunlight when the UV index is high, especially if you're super pale. If you have to go out at mid day for a decent length of time, wear a big hat and clothes that cover you up.

I'm on the pale end of the spectrum and if I go out at say 2pm when the UV index is at 10 it'll be physically painful within a few minutes.

However, when I go for my daily walks earlier in the day or later in the afternoon when the UV index is say 3-4, I go without sunscreen and feel great. And even though I supplement vitamin D, the effects of sunlight is clearly better.

Also I think it is safe to imagine that most of our ancient ancestors weren't going out in the most intense sunlight and stripping close to naked for hours to develop a nice tan.

>The US government works for the Bezoses, Gates, Buffetts and Musks of the world

the tax department maybe but America's billionaire tech entrepreneurs have barely any relationship with America's foreign policy establishment. It's not clear to me what Bill Gates gains out of subduing Latin American countries and Musk and Cook seem to be pretty positive on China given that they make and sell a lot of their stuff there.

America's foreign policy establishment consists of think tanks, intellectuals, politicians, paperbelt types, ideologues and so forth but America's tech sector is to a large extent disconnected from this stuff if not straight up an alternative power center which routinely makes foreign policy hawks very mad.

You original comment was low quality, and now you are doubling down by being rude. I definitely think your reply breaks site guidelines. I suggest you read the section below the heading Comments https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

I admit my second comment wasn’t much better, sorry.

VCs want to hold on to their successful investments as long as possible, with some limitations depending on the contracts for when LPs expect their money back. VCs obviously do not sellout their successful investment(s) as early as they could, usually they are buying into it and doubling down instead.

In some situations a VC might push to sell early: https://www.investopedia.com/terms/d/drive-bydeal.asp In others, they won’t, as is mentioned in that article. Perhaps if there is a good IRR they might wish to delay marking to market for as long as possible, so they can tell a story on their existing funds based on numbers that are not realistic? It really depends on the particular fund, the VC, the current market, and the specifics of each investment.

FYI, CRC32C is not the same checksum as CRC32. CRC32C is used in iSCSI, btrfs, ext4. CRC32 is used in Ethernet, SATA, gzip. Intel's SSE4.2 provides an instruction implementing CRC32C but not CRC32. ARM defines instructions for both.

This article seems to miss that distinction but appears to be testing CRC32, so it's not quite correct to compare against something using Intel's CRC32C instruction.
The first two things I would do is figure out why you have so many feeds and try to stop some of the consumption at the source and also organize the content you do have.

My first tip is to separate content consumption away from your work/daily driver phone.
The way I do this is on my phone my open tabs are only new things I want to cook soon and HN. It lets me get just a little bit of content without algorithms addicting me.

Secondly I try to categorize my wishlist as milestones or personal goals. My rationale is if I’m able to achieve x then I can deal with distraction y in my life. It also lets me separate between things I want soon and eventually. I realize sometimes those things are just neat and I don’t want them a month or 6 after I first saw it. This periodically reduces my bookmarks while also being a good barometer of where I’m at in life now.
The "style" thing also applies to BMX - brakeless, no helmet and no knee/elbow pads.

While I agree with you for the most part, the problem comes when you have an HOA led by some Karen who decides to fine you and make your life miserable for doing something like having the audacity to fly a pride flag. You got lucky that the handful of things you want to do aren't a big deal, or your local HOA doesn't consist of any overly zealous busybodies with nothing better to do than become the neighborhood stasi.
Graduate college in mid 2008 and will mostly look like the economy has only even gone up for your entire 14 year career.

Fair enough. I mean, it's performative by definition! This company appears dead in the water. But you're right, sometimes the performance itself has value.
My point is that a casual "just change your feed settings," answer, which signals an implicit approval for a shitty status quo, doesn't work.

What I want is for people to change. For society to stop navel-gazing. For people to get over themselves. It's idealistic, for sure. But I am an idealist.

And for the record, those ads are going to show you more obnoxiously smiley faces, but this time they're hawking some bullshit product on top of it. So unless you can make the ads go away, whatever you set your feed to won't matter.
There are some issues with the word "freely" because in many cities all new construction is HOA-encumbered. So you have the choice between new construction with an HOA and old (quite possibly run-down) and no HOA. That's not a free choice, it's Hobson's choice.

It's about as free as entering into an arbitration agreement. You freely decide to get yourself a cellphone or credit card, and there aren't any on the market where you don't have to sign your rights away. It approaches shrinkwrap license territory.
It upsets me that no one mentions the link between sun exposure and aging. The people who seem to not age are commonly those who use sunscreen or protect their face/neck from the sun. Without sun exposure, the skin naturally heals and replaces scarring. This is why people with post-acne hyperpigmentation will often need to wear sunscreen for a long time while using a topical retinoid-- to both increase the rate of skin cell turnover and to make sure the new skin is adequately healed.
The issue described in the article seems to be that sunlight does a lot more than produce Vitamin D - thinking a natural process is the same as taking exactly one chemical by mouth is the kind of modernist nutrition science that gets overturned later.

Starting a new consumer group won't cause rebalances (except in the new group).

It sounds like you're asking if you can double the number of readers in a system with no performance impact. If you're at capacity, the answer is obviously no. Yes, every consumer takes some i/o and CPU on the brokers serving the data. I have never used Pulsar but I'm sure that's also the case there.

> Cycling is only risky due to the shared infrastructure with cars.

Use of shared infrastructure for all vehicles is risky when the rules of movement (position and right of way) rules are not followed. Some cyclists do not follow those rules and end up in collisions. Other times, authorities paint lines that guide cyclists to ride in unsafe areas (too close to the edge of the roadway, or too close to parked vehicles), or designate areas for cyclists to ride where they're hidden from the motorists' view until both enter the intersection.

When one follows the rules of movement and rides in a predictable manner, that risk is largely eliminated.

> We already have sidewalks in many places for this reason

Sidewalks or side paths that have cyclists follow pedestrian right of way rules on approach and through intersections simply doesn't work. The reason is that cyclists move much faster than a walking pedestrian. Pedestrians walk between 2 to 4 mph, while cyclists ride between 10 to 20 mph. A pedestrian that's within a few feet of entering the roadway can be seen by a motorist in time for the motorist to stop and yield to them. On the other hand, a cyclist can be 50 feet away and not seen by the motorist before the enter the intersection. So, instead of yielding, a collision happens instead.

Cyclists move closer to vehicular speeds as opposed to pedestrian speeds (you can't ride in a straight line when going at walking pace). It makes sense for them to be treated like vehicles and follow the same rules. The rules are designed in a way to accommodate vehicles moving at different speeds.

He's not a dictator for the israelis, but let's not forget that he rules over an apartheid state and for the palestinians (who don't get to vote, don't get to have their own country and yet get opressed by his rule) he is a dictator.

Over-reliance on income tax to fund the state's budget is a decades long problem. You can thank prop 13 for that. It's why whenever there's a recession California has gigantic budget shortfalls.

Expanding industry isn't gonna fix the problem.

Currently the state has an ~80bil surplus. The state needs to keep some of that around for the inevitable recession.

Not "in theory" - it's literally just impossible to even apply the problem to the system. Again, if you don't see that that is obvious then you don't understand the system we're discussing.

> It is also a well known fact that it is gonna have a worse type of corruption: incompetence supported by numbers.

That's a real criticism, for sure.

> It is in practice a system run by influencers.

We already have that problem. Our system is a system run by influencers. Enough people will never hear about any candidate or idea that the people who own the media (the state an capitalists) don't want them to hear about.
If the advice they’re testing was actually strong, it’d work no matter the genes you have.

Dietary genes aren’t correlated to race of course, except for rare ones like Inuits adapting to eating more fat.

For a large scale study I would check if they correlated for geography, blood markers and diet outside the supplements.
I’ve been compiling a list of focus inducing songs on Deezer.

My method is to vet a random playlist by listening to it during an intense coding session. If I can make it through without getting distracted I add it to my focus playlist.

I have a subsequent vetting process where - if at any point when listening to a song on my focus playlist - a song grabs my attention I’ll remove it.

It’s grown to over 75 hours of music at this point. I can listen to it for days on shuffle without hearing anything familiar which helps keep it in the background.

First of all it says that in practice liquid democracy failed, and failed hard!

It also simply says that people know nothing about govern, they should only vote once for themselves to protect their personal interest.

And that liquid democracy doesn't work at all, when applied to practice,unless you have proof of the contrary.

Because I have proof of what I say, you can ask the majority of romans what they think of Virginia Raggi's cabinet, she went from 50% of the votes to 14% in 5 years.

Also: the same party that elected her has been critique of how she managed the City since few months after her election.

https://www.politico.eu/article/the-sack-of-romes-mayor/amp/

Please,if you wanna criticize something, at least make the effort of informing yourself on the matter.

But most of all your answer proves why liquid democracy doesn't work: you seem to know virtually nothing about Rome and yet you expressed your opinion as it was a fact, because instead of checking if what I said was true or not, you simply found an angle to argue.

Now imagine million of people doing the same while voting on important matters that impact the lives of the citizens of a large city like, say, New York.

> Are there cases in which you’d prefer stocks over funds?

Cryptocurrency investments also tend to bigger earnings when things go right.

The crux is the WHEN and IF you buy the right stock at the right time AND IF you sell it at the right time. Which most people cannot do consistently, meaning it's more up to luck than skill.

Patents shouldn't be a thing full stop.

Why spend my forcefully taken tax money protecting imaginary rights of a few inventors?

I understand the problem of industrial spies and creating something whose recipe is hard to find and easy to make, but I don't see why we should solve it societally for the large corporations which happen to have this issue.

Let them spend money suing their customers who violated some ToS and reverse engineered the formula, let them worry about vetting or doing suing their own employees. And if it's too expensive to pursue, consider it a natural tax of the market.

If they're creating something that will give value over a long period of time, they're already making more than the rest of the population who's paying for their patent bs and their copyright enforcement.
The problem is that pedestrians treat those trails like sidewalks and cyclists treat it like a road.

Mutual yielding (where two pedestrians approach each other on a sidewalk) works perfectly fine at walking speed. It doesn't work at vehicular speeds, which is why the rules of the road exist that determine positioning and right of way. In order to travel at faster speeds, one must follow a set of rules. Relying on mutual yielding results in the collisions you mention.
Our disagreement appears to be this. You believe that zero interest rates lead to bubbles. I believe that excess liquidity is responsible for bubbles. They frequently both happen together because that's how the Fed tries to stimulate growth and spending.

My example of the Fed with high interest rates and a lot of QE was a way to see where our disagreement would appear. It's similar to the great recession where there were interest rates lower than they are now, but because the private sector wasn't extending credit (less Cash + Credit); there didn't appear to be any asset bubbles.

The volume of mortgage backed securities is based on who can and want to get loans. During the great recession it was hard to qualify for a mortgage even though many people wanted to do so.
Causation could be (partially) the other way round, very sick people do not get to go out. So if you screen all sick people for sun exposure you will find a lower exposure than non sick people.
100% this. All across the country, California is subject to ridicule, inane accusations and misconceptions, the devil and scapegoat and example of every red-state citizen eating on food stamps from California tax dollars and on Californian grown fruits and vegetables. Yes, there are things wrong with 'ol Cali, and its not the sunshine, but if California kept to itself, it would be just fine, but what would happen to California's detractors? Starve?
