I would agree that the "liberalization" theory has been fairly well disproven, and is nearly laughable. But the post is not propaganda, as it mentions competing ideas that IMHO are much better.
Not that the article gives us much, but by and large the people who fail to launch into adulthood are people with extremely comfortable childhoods.

I'll give you an example, I have a friend of mine whose parents take good care of him. They all have a great relationship, so it's fine for him to live with them well into his thirties.

I've also met the reverse, someone who has a horrible relationship with their parents but still live with them well into their twenties, even after the parents repeatedly try to kick them out. After a ton of thought, and a bit of emotional maturing on my part, I stopped feeling sorry for these people. If your parents no longer have the capacity to care for you, figure something else out.

You don't have a right to sit up and demand someone take care of you. This is my biggest red flag with dating, if you feel that level of entitlement to your parents, you'll feel it towards everyone else.

My childhood was a living hell of evictions and other chaos, the best day of my life was when I got my first apartment. I couldn't wait for adulthood because instead of waiting for these grown ups to the side to pay a cable bill before rent, I could make those choices.

I think everyone should strive to move out in their early twenties, and I won't really go out with someone who doesn't have their own apartment and a job.

Luckily since I left LA, I've had no trouble meeting fantastical folks with great careers. Most dating/ socializing advice is absolutely useless since it won't mention how important location is.
$a(); // read
$a.set(20); // write (1)

why not $a(20) and $a(prev => prev + 10)?
There IS a guy who claims to make $5,000 a month writing about really boring topics. He picks the most boring thing you can think of, writes the definitive research about it, and voila. There are enough people who find his writing interesting, and the topic unusual enough, that the Long Tail is working for him.

But Ted is right: Long Tail producers have always had a tough time, and whatever opportunities there are now are even harder to find. Old ones, like being the Swing Dance King of Pittsburgh (I made that up, so don't come at me) don't pay like they used to.
I do not know to which point you have separation of church and state, taken that the oath is done on the Bible (at least traditionally), with a formal "So help me God" at the end (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oath_of_office_of_the_presiden...). It sure can be omitted and you could swear on something else than the Bible but this sends a message.

We French do not have a clear cut separation of the two either, but this is more a cultural thing because a minimal percentage of the population is religious, at least with the religion our culture was raised with (Christianity, roughly speaking).

Also, when we passed in 1975 the abortion law (Loi Veil), the opposition was not for religious reasons but, sadly, a pure masculine view on the role of the woman and her rights.

If you think close to 7 million refugees and 20 to 25% of the territory lost for good is a good outcome for Ukraine then, yeah, you're right. Ukraine wouldn't have had those 7 million refugees and 20 to 25% of its territory lost if it had not been led to believe accession into the Western sphere of influence was possible. It is not. That policy was carried out, in part, by Western media entities.

I remember reading once that the larger your engineering org, the larger the percentage of your engineers should work on tooling. As the complexity of your system grows, the ability to know if your change causes an ill effect becomes more difficult. Large systems have large and complex tooling because it becomes a necessity for survival.

I am actually living like that as well (I've worked maybe 10-12 of the past 20 years). Still, even when I'm between contracts, the rat race and hamster-on-a-wheel syndrome prevents me from fully relaxing. I will always worry about getting next job/contract, worry about investments etc. I'm thinking that the only way to at least partially quiet down that anxiety is to get a lot of money (at least 100% more than I realistically need) and retire on it.
I’ve yet to identify someone who got the money and felt offended. Sure looks to me that everyone who was offended did not get the money.
Was mixed for me. I spent my whole youth holding out for that autonomy and making sure as soon as I was legally an adult I was culturally an adult. Missed out on a lot for it, but I was desperate, living with people whom I could never get along with.

And then, after hats I got what I wanted, and it was great, but over time I realized that was it, this was I had been planning for and now that I got it that's it. Now I've just kinda stagnanted, I ended up well economically, but every other part of my life has faced severe regression, including physical and social health. I have the time, and the resources now, but not the environment.

LuaRT Studio, free and open-source Windows IDE for Lua
They didn't get it perfect, but, compared to what it was like to deal with Unicode in Python 2, I'd say they absolutely succeeded at improving the experience of working with Unicode text.
While most of the conversations below talk about specifics of the claims ... I think there are much larger issues at play of which this is a prime example.

Innovation is a series of steps. The major problem is that you can Open Source a bunch of majorly innovative things, to only have some very smart people that have studied in the domain write down the logical next steps and have your entire area of amateur research now blocked by patents. They are free to acknowledge your work but now say, "xyz is new innovation in this direction". There is no LGPL/GPL for patents. Unless you are constantly trying to predict the next step, capital (and in this case government, see below) will be there to take innovation private. I see this as a massive theft vector of the commons. It allows private capital to front run public Open Source innovation. Yoink.

There are two other perverse aspects to this. In academia amateur research isn't really citeable in the same way, to the point where it isn't even acknowledged unless the work is so profound.

The third one, that most likely applies here, is the Bayh-Dole Act [1] that allows government money to make for profit patents on research.

*edit, 4th one.

The patent office is a profit center. And sorting out the legitimacy of patents is left to the courts. Patents aren't tools of innovation, but legal instruments that protect corporate oligarchies.

Investing in that is vital if you want to grow as an engineering company. I work at a company with 2000 engineers, and the infrastructure and our build/change management/review system is horrible. It takes me all day to check something in, the integration tests are flaky and waste a lot of time tracking down errors, etc. Investing in this would collectively save so much time, but the people in charge think we can't afford the investment so everyone suffers.
Of course it's a pain. Just because they're used to it doesn't mean they like it. Having that many different bins is obviously inconvenient.
Scientists regularly run into complications getting things to work but with determination and cleverness can often find a way to make it happen - maybe the same is true here.

Hi everyone !

LuaRT Studio is a Windows IDE to develop Lua desktop or console applications, based on the LuaRT interpreter. LuaRT Studio can also be used to develop standard Lua applications based on latest Lua 5.4.4 VM seamlessly. Here is a list of the main features :

- Based on ZeroBrane Studio, from Paul Kulchenko

- Automatic switch between Lua console or desktop application based on file extension (.lua and .wlua respectively)

- Updated UI, using current Windows UI theme, icons for files, tabs, and panels.

- Rework of the "Outline" tab, now called "Symbols" (displays local and global variables, new icons, table expansion...)

- Icons for Watch panel, Stack panel and a new Symbol tab

- Support for using ttf font files

- LuaCheck updated to 0.26

- Updated mobdebug to support LuaRT objects.

- New project option to Show/Hide console window.

- Local console uses now the Lua 5.4.4 VM
I also recommend this book review - https://astralcodexten.substack.com/p/book-review-how-asia-w...

Brings up the point that some countries with similar land reforms (e.g. Mexico) didn't achieve the same result, but generally casts a favorable view of the book.

You seem to have made a quite unlucky typo there. It's 12 weeks since conception, not 22. We are not that progressive.
yes indeed so - not all entirely resolved.

> I don't care much about my name being public, but I don't know what else it might have memorized (political affiliations? Sexual preferences? Posts from 13-year old me?). In the age of GDPR this feels like an enormous regression in privacy.

It's an interesting question! One of the reasons for GDPR was 'the right to be forgotten'. Deleting of old data, so that things you did 10 years ago don't come to haunt you later. But how would this apply to machine-learning models? They get trained on data, but even when that data is deleted afterwards that information is still encoded in the machine-learning model. If it's possible to retrieve that data by asking certain questions, then imo that model should be treated as a fancy way of data-storage, and thus deleted also.
Ask HN: We need studies on how Magnesium Oxyde deodorant impact skin's bacteria
Some studies exist that have shown deodorants change skin's bacteria in such way that bad ones like Staph. could penetrate the skin and proliferate on the skin instead of good bacteria.

For other and various reasons, Magnesium (Oxyde and Hydroxyde) deodorant have been created.

What are their impact on bacteria?

Is this magnesium absorbed by the body? (I bet yes, and it would not be harmful I guess).
Amazon I think is the notable exception to the monorepo preference at large companies. But they have no lack of their own custom tooling to make multiple repos work.
That article includes quite a few quotes from union leaders and protestors, none from supporters of the bill. The same journal published several articles opposing the bill. Its bias is obvious and undeniable.

And that bias is probably why it fails to mention the death threats, violent rhetoric, chalk outlines, forcing lawmakers to flee, etc.

All that in order to stop, not merely protest, passage of the bill.

If we're to believe that lawmakers in Washington were in danger on January 6th, despite the complete absence of any violence against lawmakers, we should also believe the lawmakers in Madison were in danger. Death threats should be taken seriously regardless of partisanship.
Who is going to replace Google for us?
For that particular article, I would respond with the following:

1. I don't see how this is a problem specific to polyrepos. Have an "open PRs" link in the onboarding handbook that gives you a view of pull requests from all repos in the organization. GitHub automatically shows you notifications from all repos. If engineers still chose to focus on one or two repos after that, I'm not sure why.

- Have a (Grafana) dashboard where you can see the latest / newest stuff. Use standard GH tools you use for OSS, such as follows etc to keep up.

2. Don't prematurely split into multiple repos. "No monorepo" doesn't mean not having poly-package repos. It means thinking what the sensible (library or service) API boundary is - treating your projects as you would treat library / service development. In this case a separate repo with lib3, lib2 and lib1 sounds like a good way to go - at most one repo per orthogonal internal framework (e.g. core-react-components). Repo dependency chains should be as shallow as possible, and differenting between public and internal packages is important.

3. Help other teams upgrade. If you are responsible for repo A, once you publish a new version tagged appropriately with semver, use the dashboard to look at your dependants and work with them (or rather, for them) to upgrade. Think of your dependants as internal customers, and make sure you add enough value for them to justify the upgrade effort. Cultivate a culture that values updates.

4. There are other alternatives to `npm link` e.g. see `yalc` https://github.com/wclr/yalc

Another pet peeve of mine is that the real issues get lost when you try to generalize. The article attempts to do this but that makes it hard to evaluate its claims. The best way to evaluate (alternative) solutions is to take a more concrete example repo.

For scalability of this model I'll just point to the OSS community; individual maintainers often several dozen active repositories, but also they have an API contract worthy of a documentation website, versioning scheme and planned deprecation, and they typically avoid cross-project dependencies

I think you're talking at cross purposes. The person you're responding to isn't saying that http:// is better than an invalid certificate. They're saying that encouraging people to ignore browser warnings is a bad idea.

Bypassing the warning by clicking "proceed anyway" and bypassing it by visiting the http endpoint are both dangerous, the former is simply less dangerous. A technical user can evaluate the risk, which many times are very low, but most users can't.

If your threat model includes the Great Cannon (which you cited), ignoring a browser warning is actively dangerous. So in fact it is you that's confusing vulnerable people.
It's a gradual process which started at least 50 years ago. It was only recently hyped by various media and academia pundits, because it (hyping things) is how they make a living. See also: self-driving cars.
Nice! I love these tiny libraries. Some random thoughts:

- I like that the effect function returns a disposer.

- I don't entirely understand what it means to dispose of observables, is that just an internal optimization for cleanups basically? Exposing an API for this feels a bit risky, like it feels easy to misuse.

- Batching everything feels interesting, no "am I in a batch or not?" problems anymore, though I quite like when things are just executed immediately, I personally prefer to opt into batching only sparingly and for performance reasons.

- A function for creating roots seems missing, I think that's important.

- "isComputed" feels like a weird function to have, maybe it should be called isReadonly since there's a readonly function too and that's what the computed gives you basically? Also maybe there should be an "isObservable" function too?

I've made something similar myself, also inspired by Solid and Sinuous, it started as a fork of Sinuous' observable actually: (https://github.com/vobyjs/oby).

It's not even about being right or wrong. The person on the receiving end of the Socratic method can experience irritation and frustration. If you expect them to be collaborative after you engaged them in a time consuming, frustrating experience, you are in for a surprise.

And if you (the questioner) are actually proven wrong after weeks of debate, rest assured you will never get the other person to listen to you. Next time, they'll ask you to "write up a doc" and prove that you know what the hell you are talking about.
No problem, I moved to Chicago instantly cut my cost of living by about 50%.

Met the first girl I've ever gone out with for any significant amount of time, and I no longer had to drive.

But you have to be the one who makes this choice. I had to stop using social media since I'd have jerks tell me I was the problem. No no I'm just not compatible with LA.

Even LA used to be a much better place to live, in my early twenties. It was still affordable and people are nicer. You can still find a two bedroom in Chicago for $1,500, within walking distance from a metro line.

Good luck finding a two bedroom under $3000 within distance of a Metro line in LA, and finding a job within walking distance of another Metro stop.
I agree, this would make it a lot cleaner.
It seems obvious to me that giant fiscal stimulus was a factor in today’s inflation to the extent that it gave households extra cash to spend once the pandemic restrictions eased up. All that spending hit physical goods at first, and now services.

Because politicians are loath to take away the punch bowl just when things are getting good, central banks usually have to do so via interest rates and money supply.

And because politicians are unlikely to increase taxes or reduce spending to mop up the extra cash, it’s likely that sustained, harsh monetary policy will be required. This policy will put the economy into recession for a time, will reset asset values, and will lead to higher unemployment.

And central banks will inevitably overshoot, because it’s nigh impossible to predict the path of the macroeconomy with much accuracy.
The tone of your comment is intentionally antagonistic, but I agree with the underlying concept.

I think we can see inflation as a direct result of excess globalism, especially lean supply chains, and changes in underlying customer demand, i.e., the basket of products consumers are wanting was different than pre-pandemic. All of these are supply side problems, but it seems to reason that at least part of the pent up demand is a result of new consumer cash. I'd argue it's a political scapegoat though.
