I also used to smoke frequently and fully stopped. I think my grandparent makes an interesting point about how habit forming it is because it's so safe which is a good and bad. Wish I had known how habit forming it is before I started.

And to your point, yes life is not just about success, it's about so much more like friends and family.

That's why I hate weed. It turned my friends who were creative, thoughtful and caring, into people who just wanted to smoke and do nothing when they had time off.

Yeah, there is a mechanism for getting out, but none for kicking out a state that is sabotaging the rest (looking at you, Hungary).
A lot of embedded devices and safety critical software sometimes don't even use a heap, and instead use pre-allocated chunks of memory whose size is calculated beforehand. It's memory safe, and has much more deterministic execution time.

This is also a popular approach in games, especially ones with entity-component-system architectures.

I'm excited about Zig for these use cases especially, it can be a much easier approach with much less complexity than using a borrow checker.
I think making it optional is a good choice, but I think it still has tradeoffs and it might not be the best fit for every situation.
We had one bloom in San Diego last fall, and I was very excited to smell something super pungent. It kinds of smelled like wet dirt, which was not much different than any other time inside an indoor greenhouse. It looked amazing, and was worth going just for that, but the smell was very underwhelming.
Gummies, being more sugar than fat, metabolize so much faster...not always desirable (who wants overpowering effects for 30min if they're eating an edible?).
The reason why is asked "without the word safe" is that on HN rust seems like cargo cult, in the sense that the word "safe" is used as a thought stopping - after all, who is against "safe"? - and so its meaning is never really explained.
That's good feedback. The directive approach relies much less on initial discoverability and tedious work which enables it, like naming each and every JS module a certain way up front. Instead, it relies on error handling and developer response/correction. I'm definitely curious to see whether that tradeoff is worthwhile.
Yes, but salvation only happens off world.

The world degrades from the garden of Eden towards more chaos and finally the reign of Antichrist.

Only after that Christ emerges again, completely transforms Earth for a short while, and abolishes it altogether; the world ends.

To be fair in comparison which similar entity has a statute for leaving? The last time states tried to leave the USA it caused a significant civil war (and similar cases can be found for other Countries). Many multilateral treaties also have no provision for leaving, I don't think Nato has either (although France as a founding member had a weird neither in nor out status).
10 years ago. I spent 3 years going into an empty office to work with remote people.
Then spent 4 years WFH for a remote company.
Realized I had started thinking of co-workers as imaginary people that didn't really exist. They felt more like hallucinations.

Okay, screw this I need to go into an office. Did that for a year, loved it. Pandemic hit...
Bikes, bowling balls, and the delicate balancing act modern recycling (2018)
I had a similar thought as I was reading it. I remember a previous version of the survey, or of a similar survey, that was conducted differently. In that version people could indicate, in effect, that they neither loved or dreaded it, or both loved and dreaded it.

I remember in the survey reports it was discussed because there were some languages that were on both the "most loved" list and "most dreaded" lists. I want to say C and R (and maybe Haskell??) were examples of that but it's been awhile.

I'm not sure why they made them mutually exclusive, as it muddies things a bit.
If you used docker compose and getting frustrated with the lack of some important features, using these lightweight kubernetes distributions are actually great. Blue/green deployment, a whole bunch of storage volumes supports, and load balancer with automatic letsencrypt supports, and great secret management (ability to mount secrets as files/directories inside a pod is a killer feature) are the reason I use kubernetes instead of docker compose for my side projects even though I ignore the rest of kubernetes features.
Best one I've encountered is: "Customers whose accounts are up for renewal, are the ones most at risk of churning"
Zoom has created a lack of communication not more. It's like arguing over the phone, but now with 10x the people. In person you can simply communicate much better.

> For people that use vaporizers like mine, you also need to have a certain amount for the vaporizer to be effective otherwise you get nothing out of it

You probably know this but just in case, some vapes are better for microdosing than others and will work with just a pinch.

> Unfortunately finding the low-dose stuff seems to be very difficult.

What I've been doing is buying CBD flower online (usually <$75 per/ounce) and mixing it with a small amount of THC flower. I can pack my vape full, still get big clouds, but have a tame effect, the only downside is that the flavor isn't quite as good.

> It was signed on 14 June 1985, near the town of Schengen, Luxembourg, by five of the ten member states of the then European Economic Community.

> Originally, the Schengen treaties and the rules adopted under them operated independently from the European Union. However, in 1999 they were incorporated into European Union law by the Amsterdam Treaty, while providing opt-outs for the only two EU member states that had remained outside the Area: Ireland and the United Kingdom (which subsequently withdrew from the EU in 2020). Schengen is now a core part of EU law, and all EU member states without an opt-out which have not already joined the Schengen Area are legally obliged to do so when technical requirements have been met. Several non-EU countries are included in the area through special association agreements.
Where do you draw the line between the Tolkiens blessing second-party works as being the "official lore" vs leaving them on the level of self-published internet fan fiction? Of which there is absolutely no shortage?

Is it just a quality bar? Some sense of how much it "fits" with the existing world while still expanding on it in meaningful and plausible ways?

I get that Star Wars novels are a template here, but that's not exactly a flattering comparison. Other cases like Robert Jordan and Robert Ludlum seem also to be a bit mixed.
Isn't Federalism fun!

Per the chart in that Wikipedia article, municipalities can ban open carry unless you have a concealed carry licence in Missouri, Nebraska, Oregon, and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

The pro-RKBA community is deeply divided on the issue of open carry, and the NRA's cat lady who got the nationwide sweep of concealed carry laws started with Florida in 1986 is I think one of those opposed to it, as well as the usual GOPe types who are as anti-gun as Democrats are, but generally can't be openly so.
I use Evernote. It's the last "killer feature" of the platform. The software is too slow and clunky for taking notes (OneNote or Apple's stock Notes app are far better for this), even after the somewhat-recent update that improved performance, but it succeeds at saving webpages where other services fail. I tried to switch to OneNote's web clipper, but too often it could only save a link instead of clipping the page. Evernote also works on iOS.

There was an interesting comment on r/Evernote by a former employee who worked there about why the clipper works so well (link: https://www.reddit.com/r/Evernote/comments/fbf8an/comment/fj...), based on acquisitions of other companies, custom code for certain websites, and a willingness to test websites where clipping doesn't work and (eventually) fix them.

However, there are issues with clipping on desktop Safari (occasionally there are bugs for periods of time, until fixes are implemented in an update), and sometimes clipping does break for certain websites (though this eventually gets fixed). I also find searching can take effort to find specific past web clips, though I'm not sure if the services is actually worse than before.

Web clipping is the last reason I'm staying with Evernote, writing as a user who has paid money in an attempt to migrate notes to another service (then finding that the other service was inadequate for web clipping).
Well, suburbs are actually pretty interesting, more interesting is that you might've skipped over the fact I gave explicit examples where white flight has contributed to politically changing to be against public services that benefit society simply because they had to share it with black people.

When a suburb becomes an island to retreat, and the populace there is established in order to maneuver against broader social support is it really that different than a single wealthy person leaving to an island and not paying taxes?

Additionally, not evaluating how this phenomenon affects today is quite strange. Redlining (the refusal of offering financial services to neighborhoods of black or brown people) is something that's being discovered as still happening as recently as a few years ago.
For many teams there is benefit of in person interactions beyond the social cost, but those benefits are limited if part of the team is still remote. A white-boarding and planning meeting with one or two key players on zoom will slow down the process. Maybe some tool or process will come along that fixes that gap, but for now it still exists. The key players may be more productive individually at home, but when within a team, nothing yet beats in person collaboration.

I do think the right long term solution will be mandatory days in office for the whole team, but only for 1-3 days a week, and those days would be the same for everyone.
That's the guiding design principle of C++.
How was he doxxed? Wikipedians should know.
it seems the problem is not weed or pizza or lack of cooking, but an overall lack of higher level goals. in this regard there's no real difference between gym + cooking and pizza + vaping. of course if you do have those goals and you are making progress, then sticking to cooking seems order for order's sake.
I quit marijuana three or four months ago, but before that I was vaping marijuana nearly every day for four years. During that time I’ve achieved more success in my career than any other time. I think it was good for me to quit. I feel more alert and more productive now. More level and less tired.

Maybe the next four years are going to be the most successful four years of your career. Good luck!
I can't really relate to this. There is a spectrum of how high you get. Maybe we should distinguish between getting super stoned, just sitting on the couch watching TV and smoking half a joint, going for a walk in nature and listen to music or cook or bake.

Just wanted to plug r/leaves . It's a great community that helps people figure out their reasons and quit.

Sometimes that means quitting for one week, feeling good and going back. But it has helped me quit for good and so much happier in life.
Love the idea, definitely will use.

But wondering why it's using ">>". I'm not great with Python. How does this ">>" thing work and why does it make sense to associate elements with ">>".
To be fair to the students, there are a lot of extremely frustrating things about Matlab, which is okay for short bits of 2-dimensional matrix arithmetic (“matrix laboratory” is an apt name for the language), but quickly sours if your needs extend even a tiny bit into anything requiring 3+ dimensions or data structures other than numerical arrays or data types other than real/complex double-precision floats, or if you need to debug anything, or even if you just want to put more than one function in a file. (Also it is a source-unavailable black box that costs an arm and a leg.) The general unpleasantness of Matlab explains much of Julia’s popularity.

(On the flip side, Matlab was a great tool and a significant achievement when introduced in the 70s. Cleve Moler did a lot of great work that advanced the state of art in numerical analysis and applied mathematics. We can celebrate that history while still trying to avoid Matlab whenever possible in 2022.)
The „The EU has done a couple of things well, so you now have to support full blown centralization/communism.“ argument is luckily falling apart. We should focus on isolating the good parts (mainly free trade, external security) and get rid of all the undemocratic cruft
Right and current users can go back to cigarettes? The regular tobacco market is virtually unregulated. That makes sense?
I don’t think high unemployment is a certain outcome. Layoffs are trending higher, but not because of bad economic metrics. Companies are laying off employees in anticipation of bad times. There’s a scenario where inflation returns to lower levels and the economy doesn’t deteriorate.
Good grief, I hated MatLab. I had to use that in my electrical engineering degree. What a user-hostile piece of software.
If the drivers are for PCI or USB devices, then they would have probably worked for those unsupported architectures "for free" if they were written in C.
You have to remember that the EU was created in the aftermath of World War 2. It was built to eliminate war amongst a group of countries that had warring for hundreds of years. Making it easy to leave would undermine that.

There is a procedure for leaving of course, as pointed out in other comments; that's what the UK made use of. There's no reason disentangling economies and legal frameworks that have been consolidating for more than half a century would be easy though.
I haven't bookmarked anything in over 20 years. I just use my memory + search. Obviously bookmarking can retain far more than my memory, but my use of the web is deep, not wide (i.e. small number of sites, used heavily) so is easily handled by local site search engines.
Well, out of the issues mentioned, the ones still open can be categorized as (1) aliasing problems with mutable vectors https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues/39385 https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues/39460 (2) not handling OffsetArrays correctly https://github.com/JuliaStats/StatsBase.jl/issues/646, https://github.com/JuliaStats/StatsBase.jl/issues/638, https://github.com/JuliaStats/Distributions.jl/issues/1265 https://github.com/JuliaStats/StatsBase.jl/issues/643 (3) bad interaction of buffering and I/O redirection https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues/36069 (4) a type dispatch bug https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues/41096

So if you avoid mutable vectors and OffsetArrays you should generally be fine.

As far as the argument "Julia is really buggy so it's unusable", I think this can be made for any language - e.g. rand is not random enough, Java's binary search algorithm had an overflow, etc. The fixed issues have tests added so they won't happen again. Maybe copying the test suites from libraries in other languages would have caught these issues earlier, but a new system will have more bugs than a mature system so some amount of bugginess is unavoidable.
I keep seeing this argument and it's missing the point. The benefits of being in the office, collaborating humans like we evolved to over millions of years only works if everyone is there.

If it's just you and a handful of other people who aren't even on your team/people you directly work with, you're gonna be sitting in video calls, and typing away into Teams/Slack/whatever just like when you're at home. You're working from home at the office. Except it's probably worse because it's you and a bunch of other people in an enclosed space, all hearing every other person chatting away in a different video call, feedbacking into each other's calls. The only benefit at that point is it's a change of scenery and maybe an escape from the wife and kids.
Yes, but when ChrisMarshallNY wrote:

I interpret the “we” to refer to the collective as a whole (society that ChrisMarshallNY and the other readers on this forum belong to).

There are obvious bias sample issues with the survey group, but as long as the company provides the costs for travel, etc, and it moves around to try to distribute the travel hassle, it can work well enough.

Industry conferences can also provide a useful target (meet before the conference, go to the conference, etc).
Has the exact issue of a remixing AI been tested in court? No. But everything even remotely similar has been deemed legal. Considering the legal and financial backing on both sides of the issue I expect it to go Microsoft's way even if it does end up before a judge.

Nice! How about getting it to automatically index your whole search history?

Not what you're going for -- you don't have a list of specifically opted-in 'bookmarks' to browse.

but I have often wanted "wait, what was that site involving X I was looking at maybe last week?"
Sounds super parent friendly.
Yeah, it makes no sense. Look at APL, about 50/50. Who actually knows APL who doesn’t love it? I suspect the people who “dread” APL just think it’s scary and have never programmed in it seriously.
This. I believe it is in the works, but postponed to finish up self-hosted.

Your last paragraph is semiwrong. You can absolutely get sick with unadulterated cannabis but it's not dangerous just really unpleasant.

I speak from experience because I developed the cannabis hyperemesis syndrome. It happened when I switched to dry herb vaporization and the smoothness of the vapor made me unconsciously and insidiously increase the amount of cannabis I consumed per puff until I reach the ridiculous amount of .25g per puff. I know it was the syndrome and not some adulterated weed because applying capsaicin cream on my abdomen stopped the nausea.¹

When you are affected by that syndrome abstinence is the only permanent solution. So if someone like to indulge in cannabis, they should avoid to consume frequent concentrated doses.

I do use bookmarks, but usually it's about crudely saving a session for easy access, to continue from where I left off the next day more than anything.

If I want to save a page for future reference because it's useful more generally, I actually have a special "References" deck in Anki for that, which has various useful levels of categorization applied.

Similarly, if it's an article I want to queue for serious future reading, I have a "Reading" deck. After reading (and potentially after having been converted to anki notes in the Main deck) notes from the reading deck go either in the Archived deck after reading, or in the References deck accordingly.
I really believe that someday (not in my lifetime) we will have a perfect AI that gives us new stories that finish the works of Tolkien, Dune, The Wheel of Time and Game of Thrones, in a style of the original author and with an equal level of inspiration.

Sure they won't be cannon, but it will be a fun world to live in when a Master A.I. can rewrite and unfuck Star Wars.
This is the strange anti-pattern I've seen. If someone is looking to work remote traveling across the world is an extreme negative for many.
As a candidate for a remote role, who hates to travel, this is off putting to me and I would not accept a role at your company. While it is "optional", I know how office politics work and, when you choose not to do the "optional" things, someone is thinking you aren't a team player.

I don't mind full remote -- if it's full remote. I also don't mind going in the local office (for the reasons you mentioned people like your company trip -- I feel more connected and communication walls are broken down).
I use my browser's bookmarks bar.
Bitcoin mining difficulty adjusts to the available mining power.

When price of Bitcoin drops. Some miners quit because it's no longer profitable for them. The ones that remain get more of mined Bitcoin for themselves so profitability of their operation increases. Difficulty of mining increases so that blocks are still mined roughly at constant rate.

Network can operate regardless of how many or how few Bitcoin miners operate.
Really? Is this the same Linus that has commented that he likes the fact that C turns people off, because people who get turned off that easily probably don't have the grit to contribute to the kernel, and so he doesn't want them anyway? (paraphrasing)
When I take a look around it seems like the world is moving in a more decentralized direction. Sure there are superpowers but those entities are probably not as cohesive as we think-- certainly not ideologically (looking at the U.S. in particular.) Even within the monolithic traditional centralized powers we can see evidence of their control and influence waning, e.g. mass censorship campaigns, political prosecution, compulsory mandates with travel restrictions, soon new currency controls, etc.
I don’t have any issues with weight, but when I don’t get enough sleep I feel slightly less tired for a bit after I eat a snack. A good portion of the population also gets their caffeine fix with empty calories as well.
I love working from home, but I love it because it's personally convenient for me. The quality of my work is definitely lower. I honestly don't know how people think working from home is more effective. Even as an engineer, which is generally not regarded as a highly collaborative job, the lack of collaboration opportunities takes a toll. I find myself spending more hours reading code when I would normally turn around and quickly ask someone how something works. Or when a complex decision needs to be made, I would normally turn to my co-worker and chat with them about pros and cons for a few minutes. Now I don't do that, so I take much more time mulling over options. And then some days, I just want to take a nap, so I do that.
It's only the fourth of July once per day fortunately.
I’m an EU citizen, have been one for 15 years, I still have to carry my ID card with me if I want to travel to Hungary and further West. Non-EU countries like Norway or Switzerland don’t have to do that. The joys of living in a second-level EU country (Romania, in my case).

The accession process did give us higher incomes, that is correct, but it also meant about 20-25% of the population (mostly young people) just packing up and leave the country (5-6 million out of a population of 21-22 million).
