Cool? If you're not making a baby, sex is mostly a meaningless waste of time. Would rather be focused on a productive pursuit, as opposed to how I can get someone to squish their body against my body for endorphins.

I mean, when you get down to it, if the point of sex is 'cuz it feels good', why not just take drugs, or skydive, or eat an entire pepperoni pizza? Less chance of disease, you don't have to make yourself attractive, you can have it any time you want. If we could eliminate the sex drive, imagine how much less strife there'd be in the world, how much less consumerism. How much more of our time could be spent bettering ourselves and the world without the object of mating. Imagine how much psychological and physical damage has been caused around the world due to shame or abuse surrounding sex. Sex might be one of the worst motivating principles of humanity. Maybe it's time for us to evolve past it.
What I really want about Timescale continuous aggregate is join and continuous aggregate from other continuous aggregate.
And because the Shuttle had two launch sites, one on either coast. And because the different segments had different propellant profiles for different stages of flight. And because inspection and manufacturing in segments is a lot easier.

I'm not in the ZSF, although I do throw $50 a month to them, even though I don't use Zig. I use Rust a lot personally. I just like what Zig is doing. They haven't achieved all of their goals yet---just like V hasn't---but I look forward to when they do. And they've already produced some awesome stuff. While there are many differences between Zig and V, one of the most important ones is that Zig doesn't falsely advertise. If they did, I wouldn't contribute a single cent to them.

I totally agree with kristoff here and also munificent[1]. Y'all have a massive victim complex on grand display in this thread and exhibit the classical signs of projecting your own issues on to everyone else.

It was interesting how quickly the cloud providers got rid of their block chain offerings.
Curious how much memory usage it sits at on average.
This is a Rust thread about learning Rust. I believe you will mostly get advice to learn Rust, as would be my advice, but that’s because Rust fits into the work environments that I enjoy.

Databases, distributed systems, backend web systems, webassembly, low level systems programming. Rust is fantastic at these things.

When aiming to learn something new, I find it best to ask myself what I want to accomplish with it. Each of the languages you’ve listed have made significant inroads in various areas, learn the one that fits your use cases the most.
I can only assume they mean Apple will send you and your family to a gulag if they catch you leaving or your neighbors says you don’t have a picture of Steve over your mantle. Otherwise if that is not what literally is happening, that comment is really trivializing the tragedy of what happened to millions.
If you're into sci-fi stuff, https://www.jammersreviews.com is a great review site. It contains in-depth reviews of episodes and movies and doesn't seem to be burdened with any commercial considerations at all.
Ignoring the content, the writing style was extremely annoying.

Anyone else with similar feelings?
Is time series the right answer for anything with a time dimension, or is it mostly for things where time is THE critical dimension? For example, business intelligence applications care about time, but they also care about a whole bunch of other stuff as well (I think with at least as much importance)--is timeseries the right answer for this use case?
Thanks. Interpolating between map projections that have the same clip region is relatively straightforward. When projecting geometries from the surface of a sphere to a 2D plane, you're always going to have a discontinuity somewhere on the sphere, i.e. the clip region. The projections supported so far all have the same discontinuity along the antimeridian (the meridian at longitude ±180°).

Extending the interpolation to work for projections with different clip regions should be feasible but there are several ways to interpolate between arbitrary shapes in 2D, so I'd have to give it some thought.

Another way to transition between "polyhedral" projections like the Dymaxion map and the Waterman butterfly is to fold and unfold the maps in 3D to and from a closed polyhedral globe.
Hot take (or cold, delicate take with color-safe bleach if you prefer): if you have to pay attention to the laundry symbols, skip it and buy something else. Find durable clothes that are acceptably fashionable and forget about the laundry headache.
The new ones are just as inscrutable as the old ones. How on earth am I supposed to know a washing machine with the middle button of three dark means "permanent press" and the right button of three means "delicate" without looking it up? The new "natural dry" looks like it means "safe for high heat". "Do not bleach" looks more like "do not use detergent".

Frankly I think symbols that give you no impression at all are better than symbols that give you the wrong impression.
> If you do find sex to be the most fulfilling part of your life

Is this the necessary projection for someone who values sex?
This would conflict with the stereotype that marriage == little sex, after the first few years?
Interesting that Facebook is pushing this claim after Apple gave users a way to block Facebook’s user tracking on their devices.
Your analysis seems correct in theory -- but in practice, in terms of "the things that actually affect people," you're overwhelmingly missing that group that is in "3" that's easily number one -- which is the whales who control the price?
Thanks. I think this summary helps clarify the statement in the title.
How to Market a Game in 2022

I won't claim to speak for an entire community, but among my many queer friends this seems to be a common thru line! Of course like anything social there's never one clear explanation to any phenomenon.
One whiff of student loan forgiveness being mentioned and they rush to protect their capital. This is financial protection for Dartmouth dressed up as some sort of benefit to students.
Timely article — I can’t help but to relate it to my investing/stock account lol. I’m mostly invested in big tech and not so much growth — so things probably aren’t so bad — still, I haven’t checked that account in a couple months. I have it set up to make recurring purchases in things like Apple, so I’m just waiting it out and hoping that the old adage “time in the market beats timing the market” holds true.
I’m good at conversation and getting to know people and I had no success with online dating (as opposed to acceptable success with serendipitous dating). I always thought it was because it’s hard to integrate them into your life. They’ve come from out of nowhere, your friend circles don’t overlap, and your daily paths don’t cross. It’s extra effort to make that stuff happen after the fact, and even then it doesn’t feel real somehow. I suppose it depends on certain aspects of your personality, and what makes you feel close to people.

For every relationship I ever had, I had the opportunity to observe them, get to know them in person, maybe flirt, sometimes be friends. Sometimes for weeks. Sometimes for years, without any express intent. With online dating you’re both saying upfront that you’re evaluating each other as dating material, knowing only the fluff they wrote about themselves, or I take it with this generation only what they look like. All that will probably always feel too weird for me.
The low speed is precisely my issue.

Sure, you can separate cyclists from cars on new roads, but it's not financially reasonable to rebuild the whole city trying to get people to move from cars (comfort) to bicycles (lack of comfort + physical effort + slow).

I don't mind cycling focused cities. I've lived in one and it was nice, but it was also rather small so the size allowed for bicycles to make sense. Ain't no one riding a bicycle 20km to work.

In my world, provided the separated cycling infrastructure wasn't made in the beginning, it seems way easier and cheaper to incentivise people to move from cars and bicycles to motorcycles since the comfort/cost impact isn't as big in both directions instead of trying to redesign the whole road infrastructure.

The example with 50kmh was meant as something of a top speed. if a kid can reach it or close to it on a downhill where their brakes are underpowered and tires undersized/lacking traction while having the incentive to not brake so they don't have to pedal you might as well give them a little mofa.

Sure, it raises the average speed but it also removes the issues of wearing gear (I can wear a full textile kit with shoes and gloves and don't sweat at all as long as I'm going 15-20kmh in 30ish degrees C) and removes the disgusting incentive to avoid braking to reduce pedaling. It also gives them the ability to keep up with traffic so drivers aren't inclined to try dangerous overtaking maneuvers.
UEFI is a mess, admittedly, with a large attack surface, bad API surface, DOS-like command syntax, it's all pretty bad.

However, it's not as bad as the total free-for-all that booting most Android or ARM devices is. They're like a box of chocolates - you never know what you're going to get. Standardization, even if the standard is poor, is much better in this case than no standard.
I totally acknowledge and sympathize with people (nerds) who strugge with finding love and sex. I don't recoil, I was a similar situation as a teenager. My point is mostly that it's far from a global population wide phenomenon. Plenty of people are having sex - it's alive and well - and it's not really going out of fashion would be my clarified expanded argument.

We have a wiki as well but that's for documentation.

P2 is for discussion and synchronization across time zones. It also involves a large amount of cross posting between p2's to involve other teams, divisions, and areas of expertise.

P2 replaces work email. It's open by default, has better formatting and comes with github integration. I haven't sent a work email in months.

Slack is for low value, ephemeral chatter.
You can host a video stream (but make it low-def; 1000 people x 1MBPS = 1GBPS)

Alternatively use a centralized service (YouTube, Twitch).

Or, there's also the P2P Jami (but this requires the participants to install something):

Yes, I'd used that method too, but I'm not sure how many developers do their best work when told they have 2 hours max to complete any task. In fact we never put any recommendations on how long the task should take, just that they had a 24-hour window in which to come up with the best submission they could. In some (rare) cases submissions that didn't technically complete all the requirements exactly were considered more favorably than ones that did.
Labels are dated, please forget making the icons better.

According to Statista, 80% of the world’s population owns a smartphone. Just add a link to the instructions and have translations in plain language that are standardized; that is manufactures/brands just reuse the standard types of instructions that are relevant.
Unless you are editing somebody elses code, any team working on code can (and in my opinion: should) agree on some common standards. If you are not taking a day to discuss this, you are saving time in the wrong space.
but a lot of embarrassing noise if it would work just fine in 3 hours. tough call. I suggest using an IRC channel for the event instead.
No, I mean "bucket list". A lot of people think that it was part of the vernacular before the movie came out, but it wasn't.
> Someone hacked into their Malmoe server a year ago or so, and found that they indeed run everything in RAM disks and aren't logging at all

Hypothetically, without breaking into the network control plane, the hacker could have completely missed the existence of port mirror to a second read-only system that does logging for lawful intercepts.
I see. Thank you for the correction.

You should look harder! I attribute in plenty of these pieces, where appropriate.

Here's a query showing the 23 posts that link to StackOverflow, for example: https://til.simonwillison.net/tils?sql=select+*+from+til+whe...

And 41 where I credit someone on Twitter: https://til.simonwillison.net/tils?sql=select+*+from+til+whe...

More commonly I'll include a link from the TIL back to a GitHub Issue thread where I figured something out - those issue threads often link back to other sources.

For that IPv6 one: https://til.simonwillison.net/networking/http-ipv6

I had tried and failed to figure this out using Google searches in the past. I wrote that up after someone told me the answer in a private Slack conversation - saying who told me didn't feel appropriate there.

My goal with that page was to ensure that future people (including myself) who tried to find this with Google would get a better result!

(I'm a bit upset about this comment to be honest, because attributing people is something of a core value for me - the bookmarks on my blog have a "via" mechanism for exactly that reason: https://simonwillison.net/search/?type=blogmark )
Why do you think they are getting used for sex? If they have sex on the first date it is free will or bad judgement... players will not go on 5 dates withgirl just to have sex if they can have it easier. Woman either want sex and then they are both using each other, which is fine. Or they need to update their filter. And yes, sometimes bad shit happens, when guy dumps you after couple dates and sex. But the same happens to guys.
> - the theorist (explanations)

Further it's explained that this is where the "understanding" bit comes in. Ugh, so this school of thought is where some of the terrible modern documentation comes from...

I want the explanations/understanding first COMBINED with a minimal how-to guide serving as illustration for the explanation.

Then a quick link to an API reference that INCLUDES snippets of explanations and usage examples (that you'd find in tutorials or how-to guides).

Separating thinking about documentation this way leads to horrible documentation where you start with dumbed-down tutorials missing lots of crucial information, and then you have to put in tons of unnecessary effort putting disparate things toget ther in your head. FFS, programmers are rarely students since most of what we learn is learning-on-the-job and never chefs or theoreticians. Tutorials always waste your time so you'd prefer to start with something much denser... only that the only thing denser you easily find are the API docs, and you lack the explanations to understand them and usage exmaples so you have to hunt them for yourself... yuck.

As an example of GREAT documentation that combines things well (the API docs contain concise math theory / formular / explanations AND usage examples), take a look at some of the Pytorch docs: https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/generated/torch.nn.Conv2d.ht...
I used a VM to host my Windows development environment.
I think by definition it does, which is to say, its popularity proves it. I just think there's a hindsight thing going on.

I liken Bitcoin to e.g. the Model T or the first grey brick cellphones. It changes everything forever because it works very well, but also is quickly improved upon and thus eventually won't be that popular.
Show HN: Avo – Build Ruby on Rails apps faster
My feminine instincts should have kept me out of here.

Turns out that despite all my achievements and failures, despite all my joys and pains, despite all my loves and losses, despite everything in my mind and body that makes me 'me', I've ever only truly been motivated by the desire to find a strong provider and reproduce before my eggs expire.

"Oh, but not you, you're different" - hears every women in a male-dominated field at some point or another. Nope, I'm not. No different brain-chemicals, no differently testosterone. Not in denial of my gender identity nor my sexuality. Just a plain old human slob like the rest of you.
isnt it funny how we love decentralization in the cloud but that really just consolidates our resources to 3 main companies?

like, yes I get it multi regions makes you safer, but given vendor lock if aws fucks up across the board with a bug, we all fuck up across the board.
Devil's advocate, you could get taken over or end up with a different board. I wouldn't like to see it but someone's got to compete with you or we'll have to send in the FTC! :)

And there are some cities where being in the city means you are in no county. Baltimore is like this (Baltimore, MD is not part of Baltimore County, MD, nor any other county), as is every city in Virginia.
While I agree MGTOW is cringe, dating is initially a numbers game. I have way more matches in a densely populated area such as SF Bay area. Timing and luck play in to it as well, multiple people in my social circle would have dated me if they weren't LTR'd prior.
The initial release of sqlite was in 2000. Yes, well after GNU-style command line options existed but not by much.
IMO this is a different issue. If you change your partner say every week it doesnt mean that you have less sex. Also in my (limited) experience the "swinger" type people who constantly cheat (=more sex) or just have one night relationships (=more sex) are a small subset of the population.
>take weeks for other companies to publish a postmortem

And with nowhere near the detail level of what was presented here. Typically lots of sweeping generalizations that don't tell you much about what happened, or give you any confidence they really know what happened or have the right fix in place.
This doesn’t change the fact that Russians and Germans were allies, started the war together, and German tanks all ran on Russian fuel. Exactly how it was beneficial for them to become allies is secondary.
Yes, it was indeed built on UDP multicast.
This seems to be an instance of concolic execution which has seen some success in the fuzzing and testing research community. The key ideas originate from these papers:

[1] https://web.eecs.umich.edu/~weimerw/590/reading/p213-godefro...

[2] https://mir.cs.illinois.edu/marinov/publications/SenETAL05CU...

The Wikipedia page gives a good overview of the area and some successful applications: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concolic_testing

The technique works well when parts of the program space (including paths through the program) can be easily represented in SMT solvers (like booleans, bit vectors, and arithmetic), and the remainder program space can be explored using random testing. I am excited to see this work being brought to Crosshair in Python via Hypothesis!
well there should be more competitors I actually like.

Sure, but it is very easy for the miners to also run full nodes and validate whatever they want - much easier than it is for someone running a full node to also mine (at any realistic hash rate). So miners can more or less trivially flood the network with full nodes that validate their preferred chains.

> This is why there was such a vicious fight about block size: the side which won the mindshare and economic value fought for a small blockchain so that running a full node remains feasible forever.

This is a tangent, but I wonder how this squares with the people claiming that Bitcoin's (terrible, horrible, no good, very bad) transaction rate is not limited by design, just by some temporary politics.
Sex is going out of fashion... in The West. There's exploding population growth in Africa and Asia that puts the boomers to shame.
Yup. In general anytime someone is approaching you, unless you are specifically seeking their services out, its probably for their benefit and not yours.

A VC seems impressive but they are just another company trying to make money. It's the founder version of getting LinkedIn Recruiter Spam.
I feel like this is almost worse. It would be awful if you were the only person who couldn't connect to a high-stakes meeting. At least if it happens to everyone, it's obvious that the problem is on Zoom's end.
> I don't remember what I used to talk to my friends about when I was in high school.

Gossip, mostly. Talking about your peers, who said what, how terrible teachers are for making us actually do work, commenting on style or the lack thereof, etc. Also, while there were fewer TV series, they still existed. Star Trek, B5, Knight Rider, Airwolf, etc.
Actually, they also go against apple pretty hard, but if you look at Apple phones for example relative to the markeplace at large, the mfg's from other companies have much worse records on almost every measure (social, child labor, privacy, enviro) and greenpeace doesn't say a peep. So it's clearly at times a weird attention / marketing thing more than any real analysis of the relative strength of phone brands in various dimensions.

The irony of the Greenpeace anti-apple stuff is in terms of secondary markets and device support, apple historically has crushed competitors. This has pretty significant impacts on things like waste - the folks Greenpeace say nothing on basically drop support when device ships, and sometimes ships with outdated software to start. Apple is on the relative other end of spectrum there. So it's seriously kind of weird.
That assumes they are economically motivated. As we've seen in recent attacks on other coins, if its a possibility for someone to burn the system down out of spite/malice then the economic incentive doesn't matter.
What's the quick alternative out of interest? And is it free?

There are - of course - plenty of podcasts about sex, sexuality, sex therapy topics…
You list men as the reason why people have less sex, but unless women is having a lot of more sex with other women to compensate the numbers, it is both women and men that is having less sex and it could be either gender or both that is causing the trend. It is jumping to conclusions to assume that only men determine if the world population is going to have sex or not.

Personally I would blame social media much more than porn, especially on young women and teens/pre-teens. Porn addictions, if such things exists (WHO is currently undecided on that fact), seems a minor issue compared to addictions caused by social media. Remove access to internet for a large group of teens and lets observe which kind of withdraws will firsts pop up.
