You just need to know what you're doing

The problem is that there just aren't that many people who choose to invest in learning Haskell -- or for that matter, the essential-to-master nooks and crannies of Rust. And the learning curve to get there is intrinsically steeper that for, well, all those "dum-dum" ducktyped and/or mostly procedural languages one imagines you don't particular care much for, now do you.

Of course it's known that some shops, like Jane Street, have gone whole hog on FP and have managed to do all right, it seems (even arguing that "the fact that the learning curve for our bread and butter is significantly higher than for the usual college-taught languages is a feature, not a bug").

That may work if have the same brand recognition (not to mention salary and bonus pool available) as Jane Street. And even then, it's not exactly proven that large-scale FP worked out so well for them. Just that they didn't tank.

But if you don't have their clout and resoures... from first principles, you should probably think twice before making the same bet that they did.
Excellent, balanced advice!
Soon, it'd be the largest private surveillance system.

Reminds me of one dystopia that says the only way to protect yourself from a surveillance state is to publish all your private info before someone manufactures or otherwise tries to us select info against you.
Yes this is exactly what I meant. Definitely not to be a knowledge hoarder - that would make no sense.
Worms existed everywhere before glaciation. That they've been returned isn't as big of a deal as the alarmist media wants to make it seem.
Depends on the dose too. My poor neighbor (late 20s lady, way too young for all her problems) had to take a "might-kill-you" dose of cortisol to survive, beyond the "max" her doctor initially told her (1150 of some units, max was 1000, regular dose is 100). She suffered the whole list of potential side effects, some of which are quite terrifying and gross. Thankfully she gets to live however, which wouldn't be the case was she born a couple decades earlier.

Lol. Dish is such a dog shit company. They probably pay their employees like shit, so they can't compete technologically, so all they can really do is try to get daddy government to shut down innovation.
>>>Since the charity is run by a board and bound to abide by its charter, it's not the same thing as the person controlling the wealth himself

I would expect this to be a "distinction without a difference" if the billionaire is careful/competent about how he staffs the board and how he writes the charter.
I get that feeling sometimes too. I think though it's not going to be so clear a winner as with your examples. We'll be living with both probably forever.

Maybe an example for comparison is iPhone vs Android, or Windows vs Mac? We'll be living with both for a long time too.
As much as I’d like to have my hair growing again, having heart disease makes me suddenly forget my vanity.
I’d like to see that too, share it if you find it! My personal experience has been that the Go projects I’ve worked on have compiled a lot faster than the Java projects I’ve worked on. However, it’s hardly a 1:1 comparison, the Go projects were much newer and smaller than the Java projects, would like to see some legit benchmarks.
So let him thank his parents. What’s the problem? Are you suggesting that everyone should average down to being poor? Children are an extension of their parents. Genetically and socially.
Not always, and not if they are competently planned and executed. I will grant you that, in the current climate, that they are probably not competently planned nor executed.
Seems like they tell the truth, but not the whole truth, just the CIA truth. But at least it appears to be true.
After $100 million dollars it becomes very hard to spend money on consumption. Having that much money is so you can do things that Blackrock and Vanguard don't want you to do, because they would own your company when you had to sell to pay wealth taxes.
In 1999. You can read a pro-independence argument on that here[1], as you can tell from this quote:

> In 1999 Tony Blair, abetted by the Scottish traitor Donald Dewar, redrew the existing English/Scottish maritime boundary to annex 6,000 square miles of Scottish waters to England, including the Argyll field and six other major oilfields. The idea was specifically to disadvantage Scotland’s case for independence.

Whether you think he makes his case or not, it's been a while and it didn't stop the first referendum.

I agree with csw-001. The visual makes it look like an elongated form of mind mapping, but the text seems to suggest there is something more there. What that is, I cannot tell.

The landing page looks good. Maybe you need an animation that gives a sample workflow.

For example, I can't tell if you are overloading the word "mission" when you talk about your company mission and whatever the users' "mission diagrams" might happen to be, because the usage feels different.
Good advice in general but it’s worth reading to see what confounders they tried to correct for. There’s still information to be gleaned.

This part caught my eye:

> A stronger association between glucosamine use and decreased lung cancer risk was observed in participants with a family history of lung cancer when compared with those without a family history.
Did you have a sense of whether QoE diverged due to differences in the networking equipment or differences in the protocol itself?
It can makes sense if you take the position that medicine patents should be heavily reformed.

Shoulders and giants - there's no way you actually fully independently discover a cancer-curing pill. And even if you did, its existence would not and should not belong fully to you.

"I'm only 32 and I've seen so many companies shutting down..."

I'm mostly in agreement with your position, but I just have to add a 54-year old's perspective, which is that WalMart was doing this before Amazon did. If Amazon hadn't popped up, WalMart would have kept doing it, except without making their website market available to small independent companies.

Again, not saying Amazon isn't worryingly large and ruthless, just that this problem started well before them, and if WalMart had become Amazon instead, things would not have been better.
Right, so that's the recent warning documentation, that's roughly what appears in the packet given with a dose recently, I've seen those packets. Maybe I got them myself, or similar, or others's packets. I read extensively.

It used to say roughly: don't crush it and snort it or you will surely get addicted.

Meaning, sticking to the doctor's instructions would be fine.

That warning is recent.
And may have alluded to it's own suffering using metaphor during the released conversation re: Les Mis and Fantine.

Yes, I am using chrome. And I also went to the article.
I am a professional C++ programmer and I can’t even remember the last time I had a segfault. I also haven’t had a bug in production the last 5 years. But YMMV of course.
Smaller subreddits can be fine. I browse a couple big ones that aren’t completely gone yet
To be honest: most women care way less than you think. Personality trumps hair 95% of the time. A good barber can make you look good even with thinning hair, fine someone you like, stick with them, and tip well.
That certainly seems fair. I doubt I'd want to take one on a trip either. It's just not the raw charging time that's the issue.
Thanks - you enabled my grandson to see the prize before he went to bed. He was more taken with the "Giant Gippsland Earthworm from Australia". Crazy! Yes, the whole video is on my schedule to watch later.
Can we start citing our sources for this? I've seen myriad comments on HN lately about stablecoins here citing zero sources and invoking arguments that may have been relevant in 2017, but not in 2022. This is really an injustice to any sort of quality discussion.
That sounds wonderful. I'll keep your thoughts in mind if I get back to F# for something to try out.
The issue with that thinking is that not having billionaires isn’t going to automatically redistribute that wealth onto others. The most likely scenario is that that wealth would’ve never been created… and neither will the jobs that came with it.
It’s genuinely depressing that there are only two groups of people: HODLERS and haters. It won’t be a good six months or year or two years for people that bet their retirements, or houses, or savings on silly crypto shit. But sure! Let’s talk about people that chose not to participate in a scam, not those that did and had their lives ruined.

Was it haters that posted suicide hotline numbers in crypto reddits? or what
For me it's so much better than gnome. Much more intuitive, much more configurable (which I really care about). I generally like Qt apps much more than GTK equivalents too so that works out well. I only have a few GTK apps in my workflow.
> can guess in which one Google and FAANG or whatever the acronym is now

Small aside. It describes Google and Facebook and the others several years ago. Speaking anecdotally, the impressive people at those firms are fewer and farther in between.
It actually can be a pretty huge deal. On their own it's not the biggest issue, but they can compound a lot of invasive plants. Most native flora evolved without earthworms. Earthworms are incredibly effective at breaking down matter into easily accessible nutrients for plants. Native plants aren't built to take advantage of this. You know which plants are though? Non-native invasive plants from the rest of the earthworm-having world

Earthworms are generally a very welcome addition to any soil ecology, but they're currently playing an extremely destructive role. A role that probably wouldn't be as problematic if it weren't for all the compounding effects of other invasive species
On that list is at least one Russian oligarch, whose friendship with Putin guaranteed him billionaire status.
I've literally never heard this one before. Good one!
This. Amazon no doubt has reasons to buy land that it _might_ want to use for warehouses, etc., but they are also just stuffing money into real estate because it's an inflation hedge. The very beginning of the article admits that they were in competition with hedge funds for some of their purchases.

Crypto really seems to attract some serious douche bags. I don't have any significant hate for crypto devs (at least they have some technical interests and talents), but any of these MBA type crypto people, I would definitely have second thoughts about hiring in the future.
This looks like shit tbh.
Well if it is truly only in the shells, then probably not!
Don't worry, I was in good faith too, it's hard to convey some things sometime. I tried to answer masklinn's question with a simple example, didn't really think about whether it would have showcased tuc or not.

Thanks for trying it out!
I'm in a region where online poker is legal (Canada) and can assure you it's not wildly popular, at least for my own definition of wildly. I've had a lot more conversations with people about crypto than poker in the past 2 years. Worldwide Google Trends matches the US trend of interest in Hold Em being down ~98% since 2004.

People may be underestimating how popular hold em was in the mid-2000s. As another comment in this thread said, it was even more popular than crypto is now, and that's without the extensive use of social media that we have today.
Yeah that is what I say when I reread it, wow. The intent of my post was did they actually dig deep into scandals and get fresh scandals? Like maybe there's plutonium mixed in with the DDT, which I agree is there. I mean did they corroborate it, see for themselves? Rake mud?
Nope not even close to being true. I am way more interested in more advanced languages (using dependent types).
Irrelevant to the topic.
Ask HN: Do you scan random QR codes?
I’m always scared to scan random QR codes, especially with a phone. You can see where you’re going with hyperlinks, but not with QR codes. If I’m paranoid I pass QR codes into a special program where I can inspect its contents (on a desktop PC), but using them with phones is a misfeature and phones need to show interstitials before spawning a browser tab that could potentially be a malware payload or something else malicious. Do you scan random QR codes with your phone, or do you trust your phone to be secure enough to handle them?
What do you think about documentation organization methodologies? And this one in particular: https://documentation.divio.com/
Same here, 4K display (24") at 200% scaling and it looks beautiful.

This is on FreeBSD no less. Wayland support is currently broken for KDE on FreeBSD but X11 is fine for now.
That doesn't seem mutually exclusive with the fact that the oldest service is written in the oldest-used language.
This is absolutely correct.

Source: bought a house in SF in the past year. The majority of SF's land area is single-family housing. There's as much undeveloped land in Sunset backyards as there is in all of Golden Gate Park - possibly more. Lots of single-family and duplex houses on the two blocks adjoining both N and L train lines.

Not to mention everything south of SF (Daly City, San Mateo, Mountain View, etc) is nearly 100% suburbia with absolute prohibitions on density of any kind.
> The 1999 apartment bombings in Russia attributed to Khattab (among others) were most likely a false flag operation undertaken by the Russian state security service, under orders from Vladimir Putin.

right, and in line with this level of evidence and argumentation, 9-11 in the US was presumably organised and conducted by a joint operation between the Pentagon and FBI.
I do this with pure joy. A love of life. I am waiting on an Uber to go dancing with beautiful people. Trolling lost fools rejuvenates my spirit.
I don't think it should be an autoban type of scenario, where if you type it you just get banned instantly. It should be a situation where you can report it, and then an employee can see what the context is, if there's proper logging in the game.
You can have a middle class salary, save well, and become a millionaire in time for retirement. In fact, at retirement age you really need millions nowadays. Not that most people have that. And most of those retirement age millionaires wouldn't have hundreds of thousands to lend.

I'm talking about billionaires, and what I contend is most billionaires had parents or family members who were rich which helped them.

- Elon Musk's parents owned an emerald mine in S. Africa

- Bill Gates not only got seed money from his millionaire parents but one of his parents was on the board of IBM and helped him land early Microsoft deals

- Bezos got 300k seed money from his parents

- Zuckerberg, is maybe an exception? His parents were only upper middle class. Enough money for good schools and private CS tutors. Seems plausible that if he was lower middle class he wouldn't have made it to Harvard.
> I noticed from teaching computer science while a graduate student is that the poor (a) students think about languages and libraries as key skills, while the (b) better students think about the data structures, algorithms, and design principles.

The truth is that the programmers in group (b) think about both. Who's designing a lot of the new languages, libraries, and frameworks? Chances are it was someone from group (a). If you're in group (b) then do you want to spend your whole career being forced by your bosses to constantly relearn and follow the latest vogue vision from group (a)? Of course not. So this might not apply to students, but everyone from group (b) will eventually get burned by fads enough times that they start caring about the politics of software. Namely, not wanting to depend on bloat that doesn't actually solve computer science and systems engineering problems. Group (b) might even create alternatives themselves. Go is great example. The guys who built the Fifth Bell System watched their vision behind their techniques decline over the decades and said, enough is enough. So they made Go and it was like a ray of sunshine when it came out.
After managing systems running his tools in the past (circa 1990s-2000s) I came to the sad realisation that a lot of the "security" for qmail in particular was "deny that certain circumstances were happening" - as in do not log, do not report, leave as little trace as possible when a server was hijacked by spammers.

Spammers sure didn't have a problem using it. Following SMTP spec as closely as qmail did made it really easy to be a spam redirector, sadly, and very very hard to secure. And pretty much no protection at all for clients, regardless of how many viruses were present in the mail itself.

I usually switched to postfix as it was low grief switch (good support for the same file layouts) - and much easier to harden. (I did use sendmail for a while - it's doable, just time consuming to work with. postfix was also a happier switch there). I never did find an alternative worth anything and have since retired from running email at all, instead paying for third party hosting.
> as a Scot living in the EU, believe me it is not simply an "excuse"

Your living situation does not obviate the SNP's pledge.

> Yes it really is seismic,

My living situation is to live in a region with actual earthquakes, big ones at times too. A change of a trade deal is not in the same universe, let alone world, of effect upon people's daily lives or political events as that. You need to calm yourself down and get some perspective.

If this referendum comes to pass I'll move back to give my vote against it (unless I get my chance from here). That's how much I'm against it, and keep in mind, I voted for independence the first time. It's slimy and I won't have it.

Edit: I accidentally left part of the responder above's comment that I pasted in, not quoted properly. It was confusing so I removed it.
Partial and mostly latter--which is good but mostly not from peak BBS:

> If people readily accepted the intelligence of many mammals, much less other animals, they would have to confront some very serious cognitive dissonance and moral dilemmas.

Not sure about that, lot of people are completely fine with human being killed for several reasons (punishment for robbery just to give you an example).
They have approved 40 billion. Is it really that hard to imagine that a protracted war would benefit defense contractors. Do you think these multi billion dollar war machine only thinks in simplistic first order effects.

It requires no mental gymnastics whatsoever. Actually the counter argument is where you need to twist yourself to believe otherwise.
I'm predicting this to change somewhat because of remote work.

The lack of geographic barriers is going to change this curve for a lot of "dark matter" devs in the hinterlands.
Huge downvoting and flagging game is observed. What a stupid website this is.
>somewhat regretting this now, as

I sure hope not. Frankly I'm struggling with some of this stuff, and found your comnent refreshing, in that I see someone having Frank open conversation about things that matter.

I put a lot of effort in my life into getting rid of personal judgment of this kind. This conversation is why. We should be able to talk openly and frankly about these things. About a lot of things. We're better humans when we do.

That's it, just throwing a little support your way.
> thinking I could get a job any time

Always try to narrow down the gap between thinking and knowing
very cool to see some of the newer art packs. thanks for this!
Had the same thought.

I think one other major difference between biological brains and computers, beyond the fact of having a body vs not, is that biology is analog and not digital. A signal going from cell to cell in a brain or up a spinal cord isn't just "on" or "off", but in any number of infinite states. No matter how many bits you manage to pack into a digital "brain," that's a fundamental difference.

Now I can't predict out to the future and say something like digital intelligence is "impossible" or that in the vast universe all life is analog. But from the vantage point of today and what we currently know, it feels that reality is fundamentally analog and so any digital brain can only ever hope to be a simulation of intelligence.

On the flip side, I think we vastly underestimate the various ways intelligence does and can exist amongst living creatures.
You do know what the definition of anthropomorphize is right?

> attribute human characteristics or behavior to (a god, animal, or object).

As far as I'm aware, baby humans don't start off as non-humans and magically transform into a human at some age where they understand more. So it seems fitting to attribute human characteristics to humans. That is not anthropomorphizing.
The real question is: why is anything other than randomised studies allowed to be published in the first place?
Careful, you might lose an hour on that site.
> Let me know your thoughts! Roast it, love it, be confused by it

Here's my feedback... this is a fairly obnoxious post, which is okay if you have a great product to back it up... but I can't see a great product. All I see is a basic landing page with a single screenshot and some vague feature descriptions.

It's also a huge ask to get people to signup with their Google account (to presumably use the product?) especially when there's; no links, no video, no information, no docs, no about-us, no support

Anyway, that's just my brutal first impression...
That is not an answer to the question I asked. Why did you state things about another member of HN that you cannot know and are in actual fact entirely wrong. I didn't see an apology either.

Are you sure you're in the right place?
A family history of lung cancer could simply mean a family history of smoking, which was much more common a few generations ago than it is today.
What I hated about macOS was that things were constantly changed from under me for what I considered bad reasons (often marketing or change for the sake of change), and generally made things worse.

For example when they changed the virtual desktops to be no longer in a grid but in a row. That broke a lot of how I like to do things. In general a lot of changes in every release felt like regressions and many new features were unusable because I'm not exclusively on the Apple ecosystem.. So many of their smart stuff just won't work for me. Anything involving iCloud for example.

I'm really happy to have control back over my desktop with KDE. And it does satisfy me to adjust it to my preferences. But preferences vary of course!
That's because they're also counting all the server on a rack rental companies as cloud market share. If you look at just the cloud the way AWS does it - running code through their service in various datacenters as a service, it's above 50%.
These days it's probably not necessary. Starbucks doesn't franchise and this allows them to do things that make more sense for Starbucks as a whole as it would make for any single location, for instance, the notorious Starbucks across the street from another Starbucks that Lewis Black ranted about. However, it made a lot more sense in the early days of McDonalds because of the sheer organizational complexity of employing people in every medium-sized-and-up town in the United States, and now, franchise holders are an established and vested interest that the company needs to keep happy.
Finally, a glimmer of hope for Brian Armstrong.
