I think the idea is people relocated from the Chernobyl area to other parts of the Soviet Union.

Of course, they also relocated to Brooklyn, San Francisco, Tel Aviv, etc.
It's too bad that "begs the question" has changed to match a phrase we already had, "raises the question". But since actual question-begging is just met by "you didn't answer my question", it's not too big a loss.
I think most of F and ES games are pretty boring, and the chart is about as compelling as cable ratings the Big Bang theory is a great show. It has mass appeal. It’s a very successful game. But they seem dull to me. The newer ones at least.
You'll be disappointed to learn that we, in fact, do have taste buds everywhere inside our bodies, including the gut, lungs and bladder. Not clear whether there are any in the ass per se, but having experienced no.2 after eating very spicy food, I wouldn't be surprised.

My impression is the general public is far more conservative on the UI than the average HN user.

Only hip designers think coming up with new UI design ideas every year is a good idea.
woah, as a long time vim user who's been too lazy to switch, this might push me over the edge.
That's positive then. Below age 13 GDPR doesn't apply, as I understand it companies are not allowed to process any data once they determine one is below that age. "Europe’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) includes specific provisions related to the processing of children’s information — with a hard cap set at age 13 for kids to be able to consent to their data being processed."

TS replacing it's own custom features if JS implements them is the correct move. But in my opinion they shouldn't hold back from adding features if they are good features.

TS goal IMO should be to offer the best developer experience, while maintaining interoperability with the JS ecosystem. Not just limiting themselves to types.

Why do you think enums are a mistake? Enums allow you to have autogenerated mappings from symbols to integers. You can't do that with types as you showed in your example.
Your average AAA dev is usually better than other fields because they use C++ and so they need to understand a lot of complicated topics.
> What’s problematic is the degree to which people can’t even entertain the idea that racism is the primary driver of these disparities

The reason why many people cannot accept this is because many other groups experienced problems from racism as well, but they were eventually able to overcome these barriers. Moreover, the system has already changed to be more accommodating, maybe even putting most of their focus and resources on the bottom 20% of students at the expense of everyone else. Yet, we still have people stating that it’s still unfair.
That reminds of a gem that I've found recently. Google Translate translates this Lithuanian sentence from Wikipedia:

Adomas Bernardas Mickevičius (lenk. Adam Bernard Mickiewicz, 1798 m. gruodžio 24 d. Zaosėje, netoli Naugarduko – 1855 m. lapkričio 26 d. Konstantinopolyje, Osmanų imperija) – iš istorinės Lietuvos Didžiosios Kunigaikštystės kilęs, lenkų kalba rašęs poetas, dramaturgas, eseistas

as:

Adam Bernard Mickiewicz (Polish: Adam Bernard Mickiewicz, December 24, 1798 in Zaos, near Novgorod, Constantinople, November 26, 1855, Ottoman Empire) - a Polish-born poet, playwright, essayist

Remove the last word (eseistas) and suddenly "Polish-born poet, playwright" turns into "a poet and playwright from the historical Grand Duchy of Lithuania who wrote in Polish". It should be noted that Mickiewicz's nationality is somewhat of a controversial topic.

I wonder how well the Colombian Navy patrols this area. I doubt they have a 24/7/365 presence.

This is begging for a pitch deck to a shady bank like HSBC: angel fund my startup to rapidly design/deploy some sonar-equipped unmanned submersibles to locate and snatch as much of this gold as possible from under everyone's noses. I know a guy who works robotics, a guy who studied underwater comms, a geologist interested in undersea mining....I can probably dig up a retired submariner through some Navy contacts....Hmmmm...

You don't need a sub with the crush depth of a Triton 36000/2[1] (price: $50 million), but you do need something with a large carry capacity to reduce the number of trips needed to exploit the site. Maybe something like Boeing's Orca would suffice. [2][3] Even if you spent $100 mil on the sub, $100 mil on the surface ship and staff, maybe even a few million bribing some Colombian Navy/Coast Guard officers.....for a chance to make off with $12 billion in gold (at the current spot price)? Seems like a no-brainer for somebody to fund such an endeavor.

Same as your incentive to make games for the App Store. Market access.
Yeah, very similar. They both use time-of-allocation vs time-of-use style attacks on the length of the descriptor to trigger some kind of buffer overflow which corrupt heap data structures.

However the PSJailbreak writeup doesn't actually go into details of the buffer overflow (it wasn't written by the original exploiter, just by people re-implementing it; They didn't care enough to fully work out how it worked) so it's not clear if it's the byte-swapping function that was overflowing, or some other function.

True, and on reflection of your comment, it's naive to wonder how hard he'll bring the culture of Amazon, especially since it's proven to "deliver results." While I view my time at Amazon as especially formative and valuable, it's a place I'll never return to for what are now probably obvious reasons. May God have mercy on Flexport souls.
I wonder if that's an issue in many Montessori schools? What evidence do you have that bullying is a byproduct of mixed age classes?
It's not just about sound but also the way it feels in your hands when you play it. I had a ~$400 Squire Stratocaster as my main guitar that sounds great and is nearly indistinguishable from a Fender, but I had a hard time playing it for more than an hour at a time since it was hard on my hands (because of the quality of wood of the neck and fretboard, and I had trouble keeping the neck action where I want it).

Then I saved up and got an American Fender Jazzmaster that's a recreation of one of the 60s models (cost around $2k used), and I can easily play that for 3-4 hours at a time without straining my hands. Everything just feels nicer in your hands because of the wood quality and you play better since it's more ergonomical.

I agree that you probably can't hear the difference between a Squire and a Fender unless you are really familiar with how guitars and the pickup electronics work and have really good musical hearing, however I'd say in general the cutoff for a good sounding guitar (that's almost indistinguishable from something in the $750 to $2k range) is around $400. Anything less than that and the quality of materials and wiring will probably be bad enough to be noticeable, or things will wear out sooner rather than later (and poor ergonomics can keep you from playing at your full potential).

There are exceptions to that though, I have a cheapo Washburn fretless bass that plays and sounds great, and I think I got it used for around $100.

Then above the low 4 figures you're getting diminishing returns and/or just getting a collectible instead of something you intend to actually make music with.

False equivalences are a staple of right wing discourse. Anything that contradicts antivax propaganda must be an equal and opposite propaganda.

The idea that there might actually be a right and wrong answer, and that they are once again in the wrong, isn't permitted. Science is merely an opinion and anything you say must be propaganda.

And just to predict the inevitable false equivalence: no, not everything the fringe left says is correct. But denying any science that doesn't fit the ideology is a mainstream position for the right, made into official party platform and repeated by politicians at the highest levels. There is no equivalent on the left.
A different track, but the political decision on many on the right(media and personalities) to minimize the dangers of the virus, and demonize the vaccines caused bad outcomes.

> a central registry of residents goes a long way in solving this.

Many US problems could be solved if Americans could get over our irrational fears about comprehensive databases. The boogeyman is already real. Let's be tracked in one auditable location instead of 36+ incomplete and contradictory databases where the contradictions can be used as "evidence" of fraud. The downsides are already here, let's acknowledge reality and then build systems to give us a chance at enjoying the benefits of centralized intelligence.
Well, paying 100s of employees for years without certitude to get your money back is a big risk, that's why lot of them move to recurring revenue. ( subscription, game pass, store, MTX etc ... )

It's also the reason why you don't see major new IPs, the risk is huge, it can lead to mass layoff / studio closure.

Making AAA game is risky and expensive.

Only on free plans. Corporations that have customers with SLAs that they're doing incident-response for probably aren't using Slack's free plan.

But even if they are, the data's also not actually purged from their systems. It's still in the Slack-workspace archive export, if/when you do one of those. They just hide it from you. Paying for a plan un-hides it.
Does the server have to scan the whole database on every query? If not, doesn't the disk access pattern tell you what the query was? I had thought you had to download the whole DB even for computational PIR, but hmm, maybe not in some cases where there is only 1 client with a secret.
I have happy memories of learning how to program machine code on a ZX-Spectrum. I was 11 years old, I had no access to the internet, and I didn’t know anybody who could help me figure it out. All I had was a small book “Programming Machine Code on the ZX-Spectrum” that my parents got me for Christmas. But it was enough to figure it out. I didn’t have an assembler so I manually translated hand written assembler code to binary. Drawing black horizontal lines on the display, without crashing, was a major breakthrough for me :) I still have the book.

Bullying still happens among children of same age.
In my country you typically refer to someone by their first name informally, or first and last formally. Newspaper articles often abbreviate the first name, e.g. J. Doe. The only time I see titles used is when someone is a medical doctor, or if you are referring to your teacher (Mr / Mrs).

On the other hand a peculiarity compared to English is the surname has different suffixes for men and women, and for married and unmarried women. Divorced women will often revert back to their pre-married surname, but keep the married suffix.

You don't need to make sure kids stay 100% still and focused 100% of the time. But you should reward good behavior and punish bad behavior. You should build up a work ethic and the ability to be productive.

The idea that you should stimulate kids to the point where boredom is impossible, or that we should excuse harmful behavior if the kid was bored / upset, is just silly. It only sets the kids up to fail; to live a life where they can't focus on tasks and they lash out whenever they are in a bad mood.
This sounds like your fault for not using "reasonably looking" fake information.
Shhhh. Let sleeping dogs lie.
The French presidential election got results within hours of closings, as does Germany in every election cycle. Without voring machines. How? Tons of ballot stations that count individually. Those preliminary results are recounted before it is official, usually without any deviations.

I agree so, that if a system isn't set up that way, early results should not be important.
I was a machine operator in the 2020 election in Philadelphia. It’s as you describe, everyone there (4-6 people) have to sign off at the end of the night on the totals. Two people are specifically one from each of the major parties, so it should be bipartisan. The numbers from the machine have to add up to the number of voters in the book. You’d need multiple accomplices to hide the mismatch, at least three people I think? Even then, you’d have to write down the names of who “voted” so it could come to light if any of those voters checked and saw that they had an unexpected vote. The machines did change so it may have been easier before.

"Karaka explained that the book glorified a sexual relationship..."

This is the issue. And a misunderstanding. That's not at all how I took the book when I read it. It does not glorify anything - it is quite the opposite. What made the book an interesting read (although I have no interest in revisiting it) was the contrast between the tragedy of the story, and the playful language. The unreliable first person narrator is trying to make himself look sympathetic to the reader, all the while confessing to all his despicable endeavors.

Overall, quite jarring and I can see how it can be misunderstood.
Airtable is so much better at this than anything Microsoft has tried to make.
For the voter who just wants to vote and leaves it to others to do any auditing, they simply take their ballot into the booth and fill in the bubble next to the option they want to vote for. It looks just like normal optical scan voting except filling the oval with the provided pen reveals a code instead of completely blackening the oval.

For the voter who wants to check later that their vote was included correctly in the total they have to also to note the codes that are revealed when they fill the bubbles.

Voters that wish to check that the have not received a rigged ballot can ask for two ballots, and then pick one of the two at random and reveal all the codes before going into the booth and using the other to actually vote with. They can afterwards look up all the codes on that first valid to verify they are all valid. This actually just shows that the ballot they picked to verify with instead of vote with was not rigged, but someone trying to slip in rigged ballots has a 50/50 chance of being caught each time a voter asks to do such a check.
Sigh, just happened to me. Booked a room at 1:45 for 3 hours, and was told to leave at 4. The staff insisted so hard that it was like we are the troublesome customer who try to milk out something.

I don’t think it will ever happen unfortunately. Programming requires the ability to think abstractly. Something that most people are not very good at. It’s the same reason why most people will never become good at math. IQ tests basically tests your ability to think abstractly. And the more a job requires abstract thinking, the higher the average IQ is for people working those jobs. No amount of money or intensive focused training will change that.
I don't see this as a partisan issue. The same motivations exist for anyone in their position to commit fraud. I doubt people of one political tribe are any more immune to them than the those of another. Perhaps it is more likely for fraud to occur from a minority party given they are less likely to succeed without it.
