Why are we using shared_ptr here? With unique_ptr The C++ version is trivially short. It's hard to reason about why the compiler does something in this case but I feel like the short version is that nobody would write this program, therefore nobody cares what the compiler does in this case.

It is basically a not ending freelance contract (front end dev). I initially started this gig at 250€ a day (8hours), then 3 years and a half later after making myself non dispensable (investing myself genuinely in the product/ company) I rose my rate each year without asking permission to end at 500€ currently. In the same time my days went from 8hours to 6hours, as my productivity increased. I just love what I do and am good at it. BI Company of 10 people, 10 years old. I found it on malt.com (good French job board).

Because unique_ptr (and shared_ptr) have non-trivial destructors, due to the Itanium C++ ABI they cannot be passed in registers.

Everything in C++ is zero cost, until it's not...oops!
I was also on that SourceTrail path and eventually found CodeSee.io through some dev communities I'm a part of. Let me know if it works for you, I could only test it on personal projects since they only offer generating diagrams and code reviews on Github codebases and we use Bitbucket at work.

Haha, oh no, bad news! A lot of times amazon will have special "amazon print" editions and many times they have had printing problems... no print, wrong book inside, etc.

I have never personally seen one IRL but I've seen review pics of people showing the problems with their books they bought directly from amazon.

There should be DNS for paper mail. Telling everyone where I live just to receive mail sounds insane in XXI.

It's this naive idea that somehow same tactics which have clearly failed in regards to white/black race relations, would work on a totally different culture. And yes, I know you may think that this woman giving this talk would be someone who knows a thing or two about the Indian culture, but you would be wrong. All she knows is how to sell an offering which western executives would pay for.

Lemme put it this way, if the solution required to fix the problem could be one of the following, which one do you think you would go for:

1. Performing caste cleansing rituals throughout all teams

2. Hiring a caste system expert to give a talk in the company

3. Identifying the troublesome castes by their surnames and making special reports on managers with that caste names regarding any issues of caste discrimination.

Which one of these options would you go for?

Even if the effectiveness of the option 2 is the least, it still would be the most preferred option by all companies because it's the best bang for their buck. In fact, even if these talks were actually toxic for the morale of the company among the Indian diaspora in your company, this gives the most 'color' of action by the company (and when companies like Google resist as in this case, they look bad).

End result: When you need a quick and expedient action to be performed in case of dealing with an issue you have no real understanding of, you are bound to hire scammers whose main job is to give you a totally fake service with no outcome being achieved.

Using public money for supporting oil companies, drilling and subsidies is definitely pushing. So is externalizing the costs of the pollution. Imagine every factory is allowed to pollute land and water around them and people have to pay for cleaning it up or having to give up use of them.

I don't know Rust, but the documentation seems to say std::rc is single-thread reference counted pointers? C++'s shared_ptr is multithreaded, so it naturally incurs much higher overhead. (In fact I think most C++ documents would discourage using shard_ptr unless you have to.)

Haven't used much C++ recently, so I don't know if the standard library has a good single-thread implementation these days, but it's not "too hard" to roll your own if performance is critical - it may not be as good as just two instructions, but it should be much leaner than shared_ptr.
And yet real-world Rust projects consistently have significantly lower memory footprints than real-world Java projects (with people often commenting on the memory savings they observed from porting away from Java, even just to Node.js) as well as being free of some of Java's most common runtime exceptions.

I have a fairly high end gaming PC, and have hooked it up to measure the power used in a typical week over 4 weeks. I found it cost me about $12/month, which given my electricity bill has much larger administration and other fees, is minimal. I don't think people who don't run a datacenter care that much about the difference in power draw between an AMD or intel cpu.
In a time before electronic bank statements, I had a long back and forth with my bank trying to put a stop to receiving any or all of my accounts' paper statements and eventually just claimed that I moved out and no longer had an active address to update my accounts to.

They threatened to close all of my existing bank accounts if I couldn't provide a valid mailing address, and then made me verify it when I gave them the same address they already had.
That is the one I recommend for personal mail and use, as you can establish domicile with them as you mention. Also, their address doesn’t throw any flags with brokerages and other financial services providers as a commercial mail processor.

Call the post office. They will typically ask you to put your last name on the inside of your box and then they will tell the carrier to only deliver mail with your name (or ‘Current Resident’ obviously). If you’re lucky, your carrier is nice and respects that immediately. If you’re not lucky, you may have to call the post office every day for a month and complain like I did until they get the point. Eventually that kind of mail stopped.

I’m not sure what they do with all that mail that’s not addressed to me but I don’t really care. The point is I don’t have to see it.

This, along with the other tips in these comments (such as calling customer support lines and requesting removals) means I’m down to literally about one piece of junk mail per month these days.
I get shit loads of junk mail at my second address, which is not the billing address for my credit cards. They have to have a way to deal with that too.
I worked for a company that sent a lot of junk mail. They had stories of people putting the "prepaid response" on a brick or old shoes.

USPS EDDM requires that you only put the area information (city, state, and zip code) and the EDDM label. The fact that this included actual addresses, much less names, is off. The only actual addresses that should be included are Do Not Deliver addresses.

I agree on the problem with reviews, but I've yet to have enough bad experiences with the purchased product that I would stop using Amazon on that basis.

The only crummy product I remember getting was that time I ordered a HEPA filter and it was obviously a situation where some low-life put their used one in the box, returned it, and for some reason Amazon thought it was good as new and shipped it to me. Imagine the look on my face when I open the box to find a dirty filter covered in someone else's dust and hair. :/

Overall, I get exactly what I ordered from Amazon and at lightning speed. But I'm also very, very skeptical of all the reviews and usually put in my due diligence before buying anything over $10.

> Basically how hard it was to leave your community behind, make new connections and find engaging conversations with new friend.

Out at the farm its real easy to meet people and make new friends. Your neighbors will go out of their way to come meet you, and are overwhelmingly friendly. If you are friendly, well spoken, honest, not inflammatory, cooperative; then you will do fine. People are helpful and there is an air of reciprocity. In town its more difficult, but that is the same anywhere.

> I am drawn to the tech scene beacause or the intellectual exchanges, and I am worried farming communities might not be where I can thrive!

I learn a tremendous amount from the locals. But i have an expanded sense of what is interesting. I dabble in just about everything. Yes the available intellectual stimulation has changed. People arent particularly tech savvy here. There are a fair number of science and medical folk. Intelligent people are distributed everywhere, but it would be up to you to find them and stoke their interest in technology.

I would say there is a market opportunity in starting up a coding bootcamp here.
If i had more time and resources I would start one.

> Other than that: Income. How did you adjust to a lower level income in the beginning?

I have no debt for one. I have no dependents. And i reduced my standard of living temporarily, lived in a trailer on the land.

I was making $15 an hour for the year i was learning. Now, the business (first contract was in Jan 2022) is producing more than enough for me to live on. And i have passive income from the farm, for now, while i make the necessary improvements. it produces a ~2% dividend, which i re-invest.

I have definitely made a fair number of tradeoffs. But it is a vast improvement on how my life was going before. I was depressed. I think the whole city lifestyle induced depression in me, and led me to cope in unhealthy ways. I'm now in the best shape of my life, and im happy. And i'm slowly building a network of people i enjoy being around, something i didnt have nearly enough of living in the bay area. No support real structure. I have one here, already, 2 years in. On the other hand, its far more physical. But i wanted that after 13 years of sitting.
> The Unix philosophy lays emphasis on building software that is simple and extensible. Each piece of software must do one thing and do it well.

But, you see… his first example shows how the ‘git log’ doesn’t only show the log, but receives a flag to output arbitrary information according to the format string, and ‘uniq’ doesn’t only show unique entries, but receives a flag to count entries.

I would say these are not great examples of “do one thing”, and taken literally, the Unix philosophy would require much more shell script gymnastic to do simple tasks.
I would say it is. The OP is right that there are many things in life that we don't know for sure, and that it can be liberating to realize that we don't have to have all the answers. However, the idea that ignorance is a virtue is simply absurd. Ignorance is the root of all kinds of problems, both personal and societal. It is only by constantly expanding our knowledge and understanding that we can hope to make progress in the world.
> we surely could double in population without breaking any real physical constraints

Target and Walmart are trying hard, among many many others. They can come at it the other way, amazon has leveraged their shipping business into physical presence and Target/Walmart/etc are trying to leverage their physical presence into shipping. Hell so has Newegg and Best Buy and tons of others - it's almost easier to list big retailers who haven't tried the "marketplace" schtick at this point.

The problem is they instantly get polluted with the same junk as amazon which is really the opposite of what you want - people who want to bail from amazon want a curated experience, with fast shipping times and high quality and good service. "The costco experience" so to speak. It is possible for retailers to provide that for their normal inventory/stocked goods, if your stereo doesn't work you pack it back up and take it back to best buy, but once you bring the marketplace into it their advantage goes down the tubes, because that has to be returned to the seller and now you get all the downsides of amazon and none of the upsides.

There have also been some attempts at setting up "distribution centers" like Shoprunner to consolidate the backend and build those economies of scale that amazon enjoys. But that is a "light a giant pile of VC money on fire and hope it starts the reactor" thing too. It seems incredibly questionable that you will ever reach critical mass.

Comments like this are why I read hackernews. I'm going to be very horny this month, apparently.
It might seem that reviews and ratings might be useful because they are the only feedback channel for customers, but I find them to be a more noisy signal compared to seller history and best seller rankings.

I think Amazon has exposed enough signals for me to set my expectations, it's just unfortunate that in recent years it takes a lot more time to consider those signals, and expectations tend to be low.
This is about as shallow of a take possible that still rings somewhat true.

So the old papers are jealous of new media....

Without reading all 47 pages, this (below) seems to be the crux of what it is talking about -- cheap, small factory-built single family detached homes. And I am skeptical because my research suggests we don't need crappier single family detached homes. Instead, we need more missing middle housing and similar.

It’s clear why these homes are a threat to those constructing stick-built homes, especially in
the lower-priced home market, and why monopolies in traditional construction have invested so heavily in blocking these small-modular homes. The homes are of high-quality, built to a strict national building code. They are manufactured at a cost per square foot that is
one-third to one-half less than the cost per square foot to construct homes with traditional
methods.4 Not only can factory production methods produce houses at a fraction of the cost
per square foot of traditional methods, factory methods are also able to “go small.” That is, factory methods are able to economically produce homes of small sizes.5 The average size of these homes (in square feet) is less than one-half that of homes constructed with traditional methods.

Approval voting is an unforced preference (i.e., allows ties) ranked voting system with only two ranks just like bullet voting systems (plurality and majority-runoff), differing in that it allows ties in both ranks and not just the second.

You can think of them as library functions, but they all have the same signature: a pair of (byte[]) streams for input and output (plus another for errors), and then `args: string[]` and `options: map<string, string>`. If you're a human that's only really interested in consuming text, this isn't a completely inappropriate interface, and there is some beauty in just how expressive it can be.
