And it's likely that the diesel trucks contribute the most die to fuel type, miles driven, etc. So cost to individual personal vehicles would likely be low, while the price of goods shipped via trucks would increase to offset those taxes.
Yup. It’s require by code. They’re usually installed at such low CFM that they don’t help a lot against short term blips from cooking though.
The exercise window can be quite short. I'm in a similar situation with a 3 month exercise window about 3 years from now, with a valuation that's dropped significantly from when I purchased the warrants.
One possible takeaway: it's reasonable to issue a press release and talk about it with prospective and current business partners, customers, and employees, but it's probably not the most compelling thing to submit to HN. A useful message, just not the most interesting one for this audience.

As a point of contrast, imagine a blog post that mentions funding but provides more of the story. What was the funding process like? What's a difficult industry problem that's only possible with lots of funding? How do you think the industry will evolve? If you were explaining the fundraising or startup experience at a bar, what story is interesting enough that people would care?

Any of these still communicates the funding, only with a lot more "meat" for HN readers.
I mean, if we're counting Trac as the same, despite the drastically different UI and project-first rather than code-first focus, then we also need to count Sourceforge, which was open source in its first (2000) and third (2009) incarnations.
States can't just "kill someone," they have to initiate criminal proceedings. You're describing a version of sovereignty that hasn't been recognized since the signing of the Magna Carta in 1215. In the modern world authority derives from the consent of the governed and is bound by law.
> Big-O assumes all "operations" are equally costly. That's not the case on real hardware, and pretty much never has been. Some instructions take more cycles than others.

No, it only assumes that there is a constant factor between the fastest and slowest "operations". It does not matter that one instruction can take a thousand times more cycles than another, if you have n² fast instructions and n slow ones, the running time will still be dominated by the n² fast ones for large n.

> Big-O assumes that only asymptotic behavior matters.

Yes, and this is the only simplification that it does.
I mean, the “internalized facts” are just high school level chemistry.

The only way the graph doesn’t tell us anything about heat is if we intentionally separate it from any context or larger system of knowledge.

It’s like saying your car’s gas gauge doesn’t tell you anything about how far you can drive, just how much gas you have in the tank.
People need to slow down on car trips. You will enjoy it a lot more if you are driving less than 300 miles a day, which puts it into the range of most electric cars.

If you can't do that, just fly.
> keeping all else equal

The reasonable pushback against this is per se isn't a realistic assumption in a system as dynamic as our biosphere.
I mean, have YOU given up your car, moved entirely to renewables and stopped flying?

Also, for anyone who is checking them out I'd generally recommend starting with the Apex/Abyss albums - their earlier stuff (like Time Stands Still) is absolutely worth listening to, but their most recent work is a big step up.

India's Ed-Tech bubble is bursting in post-pandemic world
Most of the time that is right. In fact, there was a revolution in how people write query processing systems in the 2010s where people realized that the performance of a processing pipeline that reads columnar data structures straight through is amazing, particularly if you can use SIMD instructions.

On the other hand, pointer chasing often isn't as bad as you think it might be. That is, modern allocator/garbage collectors often end up laying out the parts of a linked list in a predictable way such that access is somewhat strided and the fetcher is reasonably efficient at traversing the list.
Hmmm, I guess and maybe you remember better than I do but how is that not the same thing as NATO and the UN dropping the ball? Is it not the case that everyone waited a year to do anything?
> The date format in the backend should be fixed and then you should offer flexibility in the frontend for user input.

Agreed. However, it might be not so easy for historical dates, because doing it correctly requires great diligence on the part of the tool developer as well as from the user to choose the correct calendar system. For example:

Q: What is the correct representation of the date of Caesar's death, 15 March 44 BC in ISO-8601?

A: -0043-03-13

Why? -- Ancient dates are typically given according to the Julian calendar excluding a year 0, but ISO-8601 uses a proleptic Gregorian calendar including a year 0.
It always sounded like audio blogs to me.
The point about over documenting is okay, but reliance on automation and tests is completely separate from documentation. They serve different purposes. The code is not (all of) the documentation. People who rely on code comments, API docstrings/comments, and tests as documentation are thinking of documentation only at the level of the interface, not the bigger picture: that's a junior mentality.

Also, documentation becomes stale and unreliable because too often too little attention is paid to it. It's not as fun as writing code, and it's arguably harder since the audience is either non-technical or has a different area of technical expertise.
I never said that. Please be logical. REM is not the definition of dreaming but if you REM you dreamed. Thanks.
What exactly in the DNC emails would you call a corrupt practice?

The purpose of the 2016 political email "leaks" was entirely embarrassment and to create the aura that the emails were proof of corruption.

Certainly not. Perl was always the language that had all the libraries. Python only started to get a large ecosystem way after Perl was doomed.
The definition given has nothing to do with justification. It only concerns itself with immoderate or uncompromising positions.
what makes GraphCDN a “killer product”?

it’s just a proprietary caching proxy

“impressive business” is entirely subjective
I work on a GraphQL-based e-commerce framework and several of my users have had good experiences integrating GraphCDN/Stellate into their projects.

Recently I started working with it too and so far the product has been great to work with. Moreover their team is very responsive. I had a technical question regarding my integration and one I was able to schedule a call for the next day with one of their team and to my surprise he'd prepared a script to solve the exact issue I was asking about (thanks Jovi)!

Congrats to the team!

I think he's been stressed out from a number of factors recently from SpaceX not having been able to make any progress recently because it's been hung up on permitting, from the lack of any consistent other person in his life (he recently did an interview where he said that he finds it difficult to balance the time required between his love of work and love of other people), and from the recent attacks that have been coming at him from the left (Biden of note completely snubbing Tesla and apparently valuing union membership over fixing global warming). All of this together along with him seeing the encroachment of censorship on social media made him want to jump to fixing things by buying Twitter which I now see him as regretting with him not realizing how big the problems Twitter faces are.

And yes in his interviews of late he's been a quite clear communicator. Here's a couple within the last month or so that are quite good:

>If you were offline, there was no away message, and no way to send you a message at all.

This was a feature.

email already existed. phone calls already existed. AIM provided new information about a persons availability in that they were currently online and open to communications. If I didnt want to talk to people, I could not sign on to aim. Respecting peoples personal space was a default.

Now it is ambiguous. Does this person want to talk right now? They are online, but that means absolutely nothing now.
100% one of the first things I'd do was make some shoes that had a permanent flight enchant... then use them extensively. Also learn the mark, recall, and the various intervention spells. Too much to carry? Mark, intervention, sell, recall, carry on.
Do you have any evidence they received leaks about republicans (or whatever you mean...) and they didn't publish it?
Yes thank you, I was indeed alluding to https://github.com/akkartik/mu. Perhaps a more precise term would be "software stack".
I think his argument is that there's way more than 5% and that Twitter mislead him by saying that the bots only account for 5%. Not that it seemed to be a condition on the offer.
To add my own few cents to this very common discussion Rust is hard is the same way that most programming languages that rely "non-standard" paradigms are hard because they challenge your current mental model of programming. However "different", instead of "hard", would be a better way to describe these sort of languages like Rust, Prolog, and Haskell (as well as a ton of other languages).

If you look at Rust from this perspective then it becomes much more valuable to consider learning because it teach you a different way to modelling your data, and how to break-up your code; and while a language like Java may not force you to consider the borrow checker you will probably be a better overall Engineer knowing how to make it happy even when working in other languages.

On the topic discussed in the actual article: I can't wait for scoped threads to finally go stable since being forced for throw an Arc around almost everything you want to share between threads does not really suit Rust which really emphasise zero-copy in their standard library.
> 5. Everything must be documented!!!!

I mean it should

> Focus on automation over documentation where appropriate. Tests or other forms of automation are less likely to go out of sync. So instead I try to focus on writing good tests with clear language, so developers working on code I wrote are able to see how the project functions with working code.

This makes me uneasy. I don't want to pick on OP, because its a common enough opinion.

However both is best. I don't think people really read tests to understand code, normally because tests are so contrived and shit they they are a burden to be ignored.

US Production is largely a meaningless graph as exports and imports are critical. The US has become a significant exporter of Natural Gas. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:US_Natural_Gas.webp

In terms of electricity, net fossil fuel use per person is also down significantly from 9,616 kWh per person in 2008 to 7,861 kWh in 2019. Gasoline is fairly steady and responds to economic activity, from 141 billion gallons in 2004 to 134 in 2012 and back up to 146 in 2019. That looks slightly better when you consider the 12% population increase from 2004.
How is it opinion when it's logical fact. Dreams have no meaning in the same way the bible has no meaning. You assign the meaning and that can be meaningful to you personally, but the dream itself is random.
That's good news, because it means that if you just don't piss anyone off then you probably won't get shot.
There are a lot of weird almost anti-EV articles like this hitting headlines recently. I wonder if someone is sponsoring these?
I think that's just wishful thinking, honestly. There wouldn't be a significant change even if the US got it's act together. They'd just use different excuses

The marketplace will probably decide this. Some companies will be backwards looking and some will be forward looking. We’ll see over the next couple of years who is more successful getting and retaining workers and bring products to market.

And if “office” means open seating, single room, lots of distractions, I’ll bet on alternatives. Perhaps the best companies will split the differences: flexible work schedules and real offices.

How old is your monitor and laptop?

Older LCD screens primarily used CCFLs for backlights, and these were notorious for going dim after only a couple years.

All modern screens use LEDs for the backlight which are much more robust but still get dimmer over time. I know that my screens certainly have dimmed significantly since they were new, but not so bad as to be hard to read.

Environment plays a huge factor as well. All screens appear dimmer in the brightly-lit room as opposed to a dark or dimly-lit one.
We use those in Poland, but over the brick/concrete walls, not instead of them.

> MPEG is not free. A license is required for using MPEG.

For MPEG-1 this is not true anymore. All patents have expired. It's also far less computationally expensive and easier to implement/integrate than more modern codecs. This makes MPEG-1 a "good enough" solution for (e.g.) short video clips in a game.

Disclaimer: I wrote pl_mpeg[1], so my opinion is biased.

All you need to look at in the US is the current conversation around subsidizing gasoline / lowering taxes in most states currently due to inflation. I don’t think the average voter is going to care if cities they don’t live in are under water as much as they care about their own gas prices.
>Almost zero planning/research and they are surprised they had a bad experience?

B) The author did much planning, as described in TFA, other commenters have noted this. The author just didn't have the requisite experience to know their plan was unrealistic.

B) Having to to planning/research in that level of detail the kind of stuff you expect when you're like "Imma tow my big-ass boat over the mountains with my old minivan", not when you're renting a modern car for a trip with no special requirements.

You seem to be agreeing with the parent comment's point. For example, there's this bit of their comment, which is almost verbatim what you replied back with:

> ... you might encounter cases where a quadratic complexity solution is completely fine, until you have a lot of data and then suddenly your code slows to a crawl [0]. That's why we need computational complexity ...

It seems like you're disagreeing only because you pulled out the one quote about benchmarking. But they were just saying that you need benchmarking to bootstrap the meaning of O(...) of an algorithm. That's the point that the original article missed, which is presumably why they described it as key.
> Yeah, the question is if there's some sort of "traffic expands to fill the highways" argument

Yep, that's always a concern, and one of the reasons I framed my response around what the argument was, and what the claim was. I haven't really done enough research to know or feel confident in whether that claim is borne out or holds and the concern you've raised is the major thing that could get in the way.

I was largely just commenting on the disconnect in the discussion that I was observing.
> but a CIA employee acting on behalf of and on direct order from his government enjoys a certain immunity from prosecution, like states at large

Said employee enjoys immunity from prosecution in the United States.

The US prosecutes foreign hackers operating on behalf of other countries all the time. They're rarely apprehended for obvious reasons, but the US is playing a very dangerous game with the liberty of their own hackers.

A great language, I cut some of my programming teeth with GraFORTH on Apple II in 1982/1983 in high school. I wish I still had some of my old floppy disks. I did some floating-horizon for plotting f(x,y) and some basic animations. A friend and I did some demo programs for a couple of local entrepreneurs (Romel and Ludimar in case you're out there) selling Apple II clones, the MicroEngenho, in Brasília. Our work, displayed at a trade show, made it onto the nightly news.

Are there any "good" resources that explain "proper" fasting? The Internet seems to be chock-full with information of questionable provenance.

A personal example. When my wife and I started keto and intermittent fasting we choose the 8/16 schedule and only ate between 12:00-20:00. I was having a conversation recently with a client, family practice doctor, he said I wasn't really intermittent fasting. I was just skipping breakfast. So who knows.

What we did worked well until it didn't. With low carb, <20g; low calorie, < 1300 kcals; and fasting. I lost 60-70 pounds in 2 years. Then I started gaining it back, I an up 40ish. As I understand it now, I have been shorting my calories too much and my metabolism has tanked.

Social audio is not dead. It existed for decades, and it was known as... conference call.

Before internet, we used conference calls in our friends circle and among relatives, a lot.

Now we do a group call in Meet or Telegram.

And Discord has a lot of very active social voice in many channels.

Data is so cheap in so many places, people often just opt for video. But what many people still prefer is just audio calls.

Social audio is not dead. What is dead is Clubhouse who were stupid enough to believe that hype alone could cause growth and made normies beg or pay for invites. And who only released an app for a platform that is practically non-existent outside oof the US and the EU.
