If you do sport climbing with bolts drilled and glued in rock or in gyms, the chances of bad injury are super tiny, and sprained ankle would be the worst possible outcome. It never happened to me, and I overshot my level by mistake few times. The more you gain experience, the less the risk.

One thing that usually helps with fear is actually exposing yourself to it rather than avoiding it - you are afraid to fall. Find safe overhang (or vertical if unavailable) ie in gym, and just fall in it. Then fall again. Practice technique - push yourself from the wall with legs during fall, not too much just to avoid contact.

Its just like SIV course in paragliding - you learn about bad situations that can happen and how to handle them by getting into them on purpose (and then either managing them or throwing reserve, usually all done above lake for extra safety). This allows you to progress further faster and gain confidence in you and your wing.

At one point, its your choice - push things always to the max for whatever reason, or just enjoy good climb that can be challenging (or not) but not scary. Progress happens on both, usually a bit less on latter.

For me, I cut off all chasing for higher difficulties, if my skill drops I enjoy the challenge of trivial routes again. And even non-challenging climb is a very fine experience for me and that's enough (especially now).

Previously, I enjoyed actually overcoming of that ever-present fear as the best part of climbing, building character and shaping personality. I do honestly believe in it, I mean you expose yourself for 2-4 hours to acute (even if baseless, but your brain doesn't recognize it) fear of death, and you continuously overcome it to achieve your goal. If that doesn't teach you about yourself, nothing will.
From my interactions it's mostly frustrated renting millenials rather than developers in the movement. And that aside, I don't see why people think developers are evil. Someone built the place you're living in.

Personally (as just a homeowner) I feel like the crux of our problem is constraints, and while the YIMBYs are working that problem, they're also contributing new constraints like rent control, inclusionary zoning, anti-displacement measures, etc that negatively offset the gains made elsewhere.
I know there's an opt out, but someone needs to create an app that connects to a TLS server while sending random SNI values. (I know from experience with their video streaming throttling that T-Mobile uses TLS SNI to categorize websites).

This could probably be scripted using Termux, OpenSSL, and Tasker.
So all the teachers want to work in rich suburban schools where students perform above grade level and no one wants to work in poor inner-city schools where they don’t? The only reasonable thing you can base merit pay on is a delta. You test a performance difference between incoming and outgoing students. If a student starts a year at grade level and makes no progress you shouldn’t reward the teacher for having them at grade level.
I wonder how many lives all that R&D costs in the US. Seems like a strange trade to let US citizens die due to lack of healthcare to fund the world's R&D. I doubt anyone here would vote to ratify such a deal, formally.
I've always wondered why that is. I would guess it's a legend that persisted from previous centuries when north America was the newfound land, the country to start a new life, where you can dig for gold, with a modern legal system (even if that was only by virtue of being recently founded back then), the whole narrative around the USA is still like that.

Meanwhile the actual social mobility in the USA is lower than in Europe[1], so you'd be better to stay put or go to Europe. People here don't know what they got.

You say twitter, but it might just be people that have access to the internet and better information?

I'd be curious if anyone looked into why the USA is seen as so ideal when various metrics are only on par with developing countries. (Of course, it's clearly beyond a developing country, it just doesn't like to admit it -- healthcare, welfare, incarceration rates, income equality, minimum wage, minimum paid time off, university costs, etc. Sources here are OWID and Wikipedia, mainly from memory but feel free to ask for a specific source)

Another theory is that the USA generally sees itself as the best country, with e.g. starting every morning of primary school with this "pledge of allegiance" indoctrination (sorry, I have no other word for it and I still have a hard time believing this is real). With English being the lingua franca online, much of what you read online is likely to be written by someone who thinks this way.

Local politics here is run by real estate interests and government does little. A local business wanted an underground garage, and had its curb open up onto a crosswalk. This kind of thing happens all the time. There is too little resident input into construction, and too little government oversight of it, not too much.
Squirrelly indeed! Max was definitely leaving extra room and not going for every last 1/100 sec. - It made a record but he still left some on the table - would probably want a lot more seat time and data on the car before pushing it harder - it looks like a handful - and tons of fun!

Real estate is a sensible investment, but a housing bubble makes it a delusional get rich scheme.

>So because women have a uterus and the purpose of a uterus is to support a baby, once a baby is in the uterus a woman is required to carry it to live birth?

I am saying the purpose of a uterus is not the same as other organs. I wouldn't use this argument to argue against abortion, strictly against your comparison of forced organ donation.

>Unless there are complications? My great state of Texas, which will ban abortion, was found to have a severe maternal morbidity rate of 1.97%[0] while this study I found taken Iran gives a 1.5% rate for severe complications for live donors in a kidney transplantation

As far as I know if there is a complication they don't remove the kidney after transplant and return it to the person donating the organ. Correct me if I am wrong?

If you donate your kidney it is gone forever. If a fetus uses the uterus it will be gone in less than a year.

I'm confused what the percentages are for? I think you are reading into what I am saying more than you should.

>Once a baby is born, you are not obligated to provide food, water, and shelter. You have the option to give the baby (or child) up for adoption. When you remove a woman's option for abortion, you put an obligation on her that is greater than her obligation at any point after the child is born and is greater than the obligation a father has to the child at any point in their lifetime.

You are misunderstanding what I am saying. You are required to either provide directly or find somebody else who can. What you cannot do is leave your born baby outside to die or stab it to death or whatever.

When it comes to pregnancy with the current technology you cannot find somebody else to care for the baby and as such you must provide the care yourself.

This is the same situation as born children. As far as I know every state allows you to drop a baby at a fire station, but imagine a scenario where you couldn't. There are no orphanages and nobody will take your child. Are you allowed to kill the child? Of course not. If you are unable to get anybody to help provide for your child you have no right to kill it.

In a few years artificial wombs will be available and it will change things. People could choose to remove the baby and have it grow in the womb. Somebody else could then be responsible. Until that time comes you have an obligation to provide for your children until an alternative provider can be found.
I am pretty sure v86 allocates all of the memory ahead of time, using one big array buffer. It’d probably be easy to find the code.

However, that doesn’t mean that Chrome is actually allocating it all at once. It could very well be paging it in on demand. I have no idea.

In that case, to measure the overhead, you’d need to fill the guest memory.

I didn’t bother looking into it that deeply because I don’t really think it’s that interesting; an Electron x86 emulator is pretty impractical no matter how you shake it. It’s still pretty funny, though.
> Probably a better way to put it is this. If you like Blade Runner AND the MCU, or at least understand why from a mainstream perspective the MCU is a work of art that stands on the same level as blade runner, then I don't despise you.

Lovely.

FWIW, I own _and enjoyed in theater_ all the MCU films, and all the BR releases.
Type 1s actually benefit from the widespread obesity, since it sends a lot of money into drugs and monitors that both type 1 and type 2 use. :)
Sorry, by residents I mean the general population of a given area, not homeowners specifically. When the issue is people finding an affordable and safe home to live in my mind doesn't automatically go to "how will this affect house prices in this area".

What I mean by being concerned with deregulation that could hurt residents I mean things like gentrification, legislative reduction in rent-controls / tenants rights, relaxing safety laws / codes around what is considered a livable space. If that's NIMBYism then I am all sorts of confused :P

I'm surprised that none of the examples on Github or the website deals with join. I eventually found some in the "book" here: https://prql-lang.org/book/transforms/join.html

from employees
join side:left positions [id==employee_id]

turns into

SELECT
employees.*,
positions.*
FROM
employees
LEFT JOIN positions ON id = employee_id

I would love to see joins worked into the main learning examples. Without join, the examples lack a bit of the "relation" part; we could just as easily be compiling a DSL to a chain of `array.filter`, `array.reduce`, `array.map` calls. Joins are what makes relational modeling interesting!

I would love to see Datalog/SPARQL-style implicit joins to make graph traversals like "which users have edited documents I own?" less verbose.

Most external recruiters aren't that useful in my experience. Unless they happen to have a client you want to connect with at the time you are looking. Internal recruiters have helped speed me through the process in many cases though, so those are worth connecting with imo.
> Am I wrong, or would it just be better to create more housing in ways that created affordable housing (rent control, public housing, and so forth) instead of trying to see if "market" forces of supply / demand fix the issue?

Rent control doesn't "create" any housing. It simply puts a cap on the price of housing. I'm a part-time Real Estate investor, and I would never invest in a city that had a rental cap, since the point of investments is to make money, not start a charity. Public housing has the same problem. You end up putting a bunch of poor people in one building, who statistically end up being associated with crime and drug use. This drives down real estate values in the adjoining neighborhood and makes real-estate less attractive to investors and you wind up creating a slum.

Want to promote more affordable housing? Keep the government far away. The market has its fair share of issues and inefficiencies, but it's still more efficient than affordable housing programs dreamed up by government bureaucrats.
I am from Europe, so probably can't recommend anything useful for you. But if you ever come by Geneva, Switzerland, we have fine indoor and outdoor places. Next one could be Chamonix, any climb when you have glaciated giants 3800m higher than valley is pretty nice.
I think this comment author's use of the word "competent" means "in delivering medical treatment to Americans."

But I also think "the government" shouldn't "deliver medical treatment" - I suppose they could mean "in deciding how to spend tax dollars to get medical treatment delivered."

In which case, I agree that is not their competency.

>business logic is put into stored procedures

This is a double-edged sword. I have seen massive business logic baked into stored procedures...so much so, that the applications themselves are rather slim. If this stored procedure code is properly versioned and otherwise managed, this is not entirely bad. If the data model is sound, I don't worry that much...stored procs vs 100KLOC of Java code? I can tell you what is easier to migrate. The other side of it is that stored procedures can also serve as an API into the actual database. I built a system once (90's) where the developers never accessed the actual database tables directly. They always called stored procedures. The advantage here was that we could tune the snot out of the database without a code change/build/deploy. It also allowed the DBA some control over poorly written, runaway queries. YMMV. I think today I probably would try to keep the database as vanilla as possible.

Businesses need to consider the risks involved with cloud providers turning hostile against them (especially Google). Case and point: poster has no recourse, had reason to trust Google's availability in hosting their docs, and got caught doing something unknown by an over-zealous, unregulated implementation of AI. Had the poster not had the knowledge or skill to recover the document it would probably be lost entirely.
I think there needs to be a lot more nuance with the word "deregulate" because there are many regulations and some should be gotten rid of and some shouldn't. We shouldn't compromise on building quality so those regulations should stay in place, but we should soften zoning rules and remove parking minimums for example. Also, specifically the state of california needs to rework CEQA and limit neighborhood input to projects.

I'd also point out that areas that encourage more construction have been growing and becoming attractive places to live. Emeryville for example has been building aggressively and its becoming a nice place to live (minus the highway nearby). Some parts are surprisingly walkable and it even has free public transit (the emery-go-round). Compare this to SF which has blocked housing (especially apartment buildings); its becoming increasingly unaffordable and suburban feeling compared to east bay. Density also leads to more diversity.
That is very true...Insulin now of days is very different then when it was first introduced. For example, there are now "long-lasting" and "fast-acting" insulin that has been molecularly modified for different outcomes.

Diabetes is a very old disease that ironically is pushing the limits of sensor fusion, but it is very poorly understood by people outside of the Type 1 community.

I personally wish these two diseases were completely renamed as it does a disservice to both Type 1 and 2 patients.

Slightly less optimistic, but perhaps more realistic thought: what if that's the push that makes people validate their (internet) sources? Seems like it might become clear that random web pages are just automatically generated content. If you really want to learn something credible at all, you'll really have to be more specific about your sources than "the internet".
