> Ex: apparently more than a half gram in a joint for one person is extremely unusual, putting aside specifics.

Seems a bit light, but I haven't rolled any joints for awhile so I could be off.

> Also I think it's a false meme that folks use tobacco and weed together,

I've rarely seen them used together, such as mixed together in a joint. It does seem common enough to smoke a tobacco cigarette at the same time, or immediately before or after. That said, I make my own (tobacco) cigarettes and I have on a few occasions mixed some cannabis in with it. The tobacco smell overpowers the cannabis smell and nobody around me could tell it wasn't a regular cigarette.

>Still, the argument is the same - a person is posting an article on a news site for the sole purpose of other people seeing (consuming) it.

>I consider it basic decency to create a good presentation when you're showing something in people's news feed.

The individual posting the article may not be the owner of the code base thus making it impossible for the poster to alter the presentation.

If the owner of the code base has not posted a link for others' "consumption," they would have conformed to your expectations.
That's awesome!

Ironically, Xmodem wouldn't have worked well over CIS's network, since to talk to the X25 nodes you had to have software flow control enabled in your modem connection. Small transfers might work, but when you hit the Xmodem block number that coincides with ^Q, that block would repeatedly NAK until the transfer failed.
> Your startup idea won't work

It's a free startup idea, if you take it and it doesn't pan out I'll happily refund you the $0 for it.

> precisely because of the huge variety of shapes that you'd need. Your searches would almost always return 0 results.

Sure, the risk is either zero results or large amounts of irrelevant results. But it's for seemingly impossibly large search spaces that search engines are the most valuable. It's no coincidence that Google is a trillion dollar company and pressing control or command-f on a web page isn't.

Edit: also, while we're poking holes in the idea, the main problem isn't the feasibility of the technology, the main problem is that people who need drying-rack-holder-uppers probably do not constitute a rapidly growing market, which is the other thing Google had going for it.
Hmm, then in sounds I can just record my own voice only. Notes are easy to write down later from those. Legally all is fine, since I'm recording only my own voice, but it's good for the purposes you describe.

If you had spent a few minutes reading the meaning of "unsafe" in the book's first chapter (freely available), you would know exactly what we mean by "unsafe", which is far from the misinformation you're spreading.

I don't know if you have been fired from Bloomberg or failed to pass an interview there, but there seems to be vitriol and anger behind your posts.

I think that people would take your "criticism" more seriously if you backed it up with facts and examples instead of repeatedly begging readers to not buy the book :)
> has returned to a more natural state

Well it's no longer managed as farmland and has young forests growing on it now. It's hard to say what would be "natural". The land on the east coast was being actively managed with controlled burning and cultivation of wild plants basically as soon as people arrived. Interestingly, there weren't indigenous earth worms then, so forests that weren't burned had deep beds of leaves. Before that there were glaciers and a totally different climate.
It may be possible to run it off of a 1500w AC source. Compressors/pumps need a lot of current for a very short period of time to start, and much less power to run. Sometimes you can use electronic trickery to "soft start" a pump, Google "soft start" + your water pump - if your pump is 1/2hp or less, it's likely possible to run the pump off a 1500w supply.

Alternatively, you can add a pressurized well tank for $300-500 usd that will supply you with 25-35 gallons of water without power. Not an unlimited supply, but even a little water is much better than none.
> I mention it's like creating 15 acres of agricultural land out of thin air.

So you can just grow things hydroponically out of nothing? You don't need masses of petrochemical-derived fertilisers and plastics?
Ask HN: Alternatives to Prettier?
I've been on the hunt for a generalized formatter to handle markdown, YAML, JSON, and other common file types. All of my open source projects typically have at least markdown and YAML present. I typically employ a specialized formatter/linter for the project-specific language, but handling the other types has always been a pain.

Prettier is the closest thing I've found, even if it's primarily targeting Javascript. My biggest gripe is the dependencies that it ships with. I'd love to find a static binary that can accomplish the same thing. Any suggestions?
I think you're wrong. It does that every x seconds. The disk writing is async and it's meant that you protect data-loss by keeping replicas in different availability zones.

> I expect French to maintain cultural continuity for longer than English, which is so freewheeling and absorptive that it feels we are destined for schism and mutual incomprehension in the long run

English in England is becoming more homogenous and comprehensible, not less. There's much more internal mobility, much more international mobility and more time is spent consuming mass media including media created in the USA.
Building a transformer in Julia
I'm not sure I follow your logic.

Think about it this way - 5 years ago farming land in the area was worth $10,000 an acre. It's probably more now. So if you just have 100 acres, that's easily worth a million. To make sense farming it instead of selling it and investing (or renting the land to another farmer) you'd need to make more than $50k-$100k after expenses for it to be worth it."

But many times the land is worth more than they make. A 100 ac farm growing wheat would gross about $40k, right?

As for power equipment. Some of that can be bought with grants or subsidies, right? Or on debt.

As the article mentioned schools are no longer competing on price, but they are competing on features / services / amenities. It seems intuitive to cut those to reduce costs, but the market doesn’t want that even if people say that is what they want that is not how they vote with their dollar.

The biggest declines in enrollments are at community colleges and state schools. Also counter intuitively when a college lowers their listed tuition to offer more transparent pricing they almost see an enrollment decline.

The difference between 50k, 60k, 70k, 80k per year is almost irrelevant to the students if they are able to secure a gurnanteed government loan.

For things like swimming pools and gyms, sure.

But some of the new services are things like 'mental health support' - it would be problematic if you'd opted out of mental health support to save $50/month, then you committed suicide.

I can assure you that most (if not all) C++11/14 developers that have some prior experience with those standards will find our book useful in various possible ways.

If you don't want to take my word for it, check out the acknowledgements in the book itself -- it has been thoroughly reviewed endorsed by many top-notch ISO committee members and C++ experts.
Yep, that's absurd, but that's also not Google's or Apple's stance on the fee. Both companies argue that the 30% is the platform fee which happens to include the payment processing fee as a small portion of it.

Charging 30% of any and all transactions as an app store fee is also absurd, especially for content apps, but it's important that we talk about this issue in the terms that are actually being used in court. There was a lot of confusion about the implications of the Epic v. Apple decision because of misunderstandings like this.
The review states the exact opposite.
> My insight is to wonder why can’t we have a virtual machine target a replicated state machine? Why can’t I ship my novel data structure, describe how to mutate it or query it, and then get everything else for free? If I were to go back to academics, then this would be my research area. The reason is that I believe answering this question is going to take decades, but the tasty fruit is efficient computation, low latency, and exceptional reliability.

You would have to spend much more time litigating without an arbitration clause, meaning even more attorney fees. If this is a problem, it's not a problem specific to arbitration.
> i was under the impression no additional housing is being built and that was a major problem.

People act like it is, the reality is different. Why do people all need to live in SF?

Serious question, why?

There are small towns throughout the country within 30-45 min of a major city. If you want to go further out, you can find small towns / cities everywhere. I'm currently living a fair distance from any major city and can still get literally anything I can imagine delivered. It's cheaper, taxes are cheaper, food is cheaper, fuel is cheaper, I have more land, I can see trees / stars. Yet within a brief drive I can be in the center of a major city with all it entails.

San Francisco is fairly dystopian. I used to live there, walking over human waste, people getting head in the street. Naked women rolling around after a bender, a persons leg rotting off. This was my daily walk through SF to work. Now, I see cows, sit in the grass and still make more money and am away from the tragedy.

I think most people think building more buildings would solve the homeless problem. The reality is that dispersing production would save the city. I.e. limiting growth and having strict policing. The homeless would leave / be swept up and arrested. The housing would be expensive, but wealthy people would still live there. Then Sacramento, San Diego, Colorado, Texas, etc. is where people would move. This would help wealth inequality (spreading the wealth) and improve mental / societal health.
This looks very cool. It looks similar to the C4 model, where you can have nested components of arbitrary depth ("containers" in C4 parlance).

I'm surprised you're not using HIP? At least in my experience it seems like HIP is the go-to system for programming the AMD GPUs, in large part because of CUDA compatibility. You can mostly get things to work with a one-line header change [1].

Hi! This book is not targeting Bloomberg employees only, it is written for the broad audience of C++ developers who have previously used modern standards, or C++03 developers that want to learn C++11/14 in an effective and safe way.

Would you mind explaining why you believe that the audience for this book is limited to a specific company? Concrete examples would be appreciated.

Results, not intentions. Seems you have focused on the "garbage" phrase, but it was not meant to be exactly literal. To clarify, it was rather shorthand for everything these folks do.

More specifically, supporting the mentally ill to refuse treatment. Later (as you allude), they will vocally support not enforcing various quality of life laws that have been broken. Logically, these two things are in conflict. Either the mentally ill are competent to make decisions, or they aren't... pick one.

This, combined with lack of funding are the primary hurdles to helping these folks get into places to care for them. I would also support other subsets of the homeless population to be helped. But, a lot of people prefer them just where they are apparently. The results of their actions speak louder than words.
So you have to put electrodes on your neck for this?

I definitely know a lot of people who have felt torn between their guilt about ruining the planet with their gas guzzling SUVs and buying an electric vehicle from a company whose founder--though he supports gay marriage, drug legalization, environment, immigration, science, etc--says snarky things on the Internet. They would leap at the opportunity to buy a large electric vehicle from a company whose founder merely bought a newspaper and used it to spread racist propaganda.

Forced arbitration can be a double edged sward for the corporations too. A while back, a company filed a motion to dismiss a class-action case because everyone signed arbitration agreements. The judge denied the request and forced the company to start an arbitration process with each member of a class, which was MUCH more expensive for the company to deal with than treating the class as a single entity.
I think the market has a lot to do with it. I've bought properties in buyer's markets (recession '08 and '14) and it was barely even mentioned that there was a home warranty included. I got the sense from my agents that it was standard.

I've been shopping since September last year and watched the market shift as low interest rates stopped recently. There was a seasonal dip in December 2021, but it was still about 20% higher than even highs of previous years as people scrambled to get good loans before they ended. It was definitely a seller's market. My agent said many winning deals were waiving financing contingencies and even inspection contingencies to sweeten the offer. Home warranties would have been one of the first things dropped.
Hi. Dan from Fork is here. I guess there's some mistake. I answer a lot of user questions daily and this is the first time I hear about such a feedback. I would really appreciate if you could send me any details (by email or using the feedback button on the toolbar in Fork).
In the extreme case, this is something we’ll need to figure out for space exploration too. Hopefully people are working on it!

Exactly. Also ignoring the wage premium, which is wider than ever. Adjusted for inflation and student loan debt, grads are still earning more money than ever.

One reason I want to see requests like this basically instantly and unquestionably accepted is because it prevents these minor issues from overshadowing the important issues the rest of the world is trying to help Turkiye deal with.

I use pen and paper as well, but rather than print out all the source code, I write down the call stack. A calls B calls C, etc. along with the line numbers of the call. Much easier than printing out the source and you still have the IDE niceties like go to definition, find in source, etc.

> It blows my mind that someone would actively hate on such a project. Oh well, internet.

It's not the internet, it is our whole society.

I agree. Plus any prolonged power outage (multi days) is likely to be area wide which means that topping up an F150 from a fast charger before dark and those are likely to be heavilly over subscribed (or out of action) in the local area.

With the Powerwall option you could top up your F150 at home then range further to find a working fast charger thats within the calculated power budget.
