This story was posted on HN a couple months ago, there is a push right now for use of a somewhat novel technique to drill extremely deep holes, producing geothermal power anywhere on the planet, with several commercial ventures in their early phases:

Incorrect, especially the statement that “the vast majority of what lawyers do has nothing to do with judges. It has to do with drafting contracts and interpreting legislation and legal precedent.”

I think you’re confusing arbitration or litigation as the aspects of lawyering which involve judges. In fact, just about all actions undertaken by lawyers are with an eventual audience of a courtroom and a judge in mind. Yes, you review contracts, yes, you interpret legislation: In order to achieve some goal, with an eye toward how it might be interpreted by a judge or opposing counsel. A lawyer that is not proactive about future defense is not fulfilling their duty as counsel and that necessarily means thinking about and considering judges and the courtroom, to one degree or another.
Yes, there is a long-standing debate in categories about this "reduction" problem but that is mostly theoretical

In practice, you only need to break down enough to interface w existing APIs

The morphisms are controlled by the crafting system, which is really a higher order type system

No you don't need to achieve god-like powers any more than GitHub is the source of all code on the planet (it doesn't have to be all or nothing).

Even the crafting rules themselves contain FP chains. In my real world work, I use a mix of crafting, FP chains and old school functions.
I want to make it clear that I'm not criticizing, but genuinely curious. I don't care if people spend their money on clothing. More power to anyone who does and derives joy from it.

Thank you for more clarification, but I'm still curious if you feel this is about average for your social circle or area?
...of the governments imposing bureaucratic will over natural man.
Eh nope. At least not in common law jurisdictions. I recently sat on a jury (murder trial) in a common law jurisdiction (Republic of Ireland) and the sitting Judge is the judge of Law, and the Jury is the judge of Fact. Apart from that the jury does what it's bloody well told.
Our local RadioShack doubled down on the maker components. I go buy things from them weekly just to show they have community support. I really hope they don’t close.
In paper is right and aims right. In practice we can discuss your claims but it's still one of the best (or more fairly, less worst) implementations in human history so far.

And what's the alternative anyway? Some kind of Newspeak (with an officially approved typography)?

Bias on both sides. Doesn't mean that either side is wrong; but "they're biased!" isn't much of an accusation. Heretics can also seek the truth.
Draw a random sample of easy variables from the underlying distribution, compute the variable of interest on all of those, then average.

Good? Isn't that why we have frequent, regular elections? Or is it so far gone that the whole thing needs to be replaced... with some_one_ outside the "system"? Imo discarding democratic process and violently overthrowing an elected gov't is the fastest way TO tyranny.

Article says "popularized" avocado toast. Avocados and toast have been around a long time, and I doubt the cafe "invented" it. I've got personal prior art from my own kitchen for quite a few decades.
If you are near a window or other hole in the wall, you can duct your exhaust outside pretty easily. If you are near a lesser used room, you can shove your desktop on the other side of the wall and run the cables you need through.

Or you can combine these by putting the desktop in a closet and ducting the exhaust outside.
After reading the "Grug Developer" article recently, I've been thinking of frontend development as "The Plane of Eternal Complexity Demons".

....and promptly lose in performance benchmarks against a last generation minipc....which in turn are basically laptop class chips of the kind so low power you can passive cool them. [0] Not in the same price class sure, but that should give most people pause anyway.

Unless you have a specific need for ECC / out-of-band / server practice / TBs of RAM this a questionable proposition. Plus you need space, cheap electricity, noise tolerance and heat dissipation.

That said it is good to create awareness of it. More options is good.

I reckon there might be some really good opportunities coming up with Zen 2 AM4 second hand though - some of those configurations are (unofficially) ECC capable, plenty powerful and loads of gamers will be looking to dump their rigs shortly.

There is a war over ground and under ground. Every side accuses the other for fake news. Reason, search and logic will guide the interested party to some fully or partially correct conclusions. It is a rewarding mental exercise.
I think it's because redux is quite painful to use with very modern apps. Most of the time you need something like `redux-saga` or `redux-thunk` to deal with async side effects. I'm not sure which is the most popular today, but sagas are based on generators and trying to use those with typescript is very very painful and the underlying issue [1] is marked as a design limitation in TS itself.

In addition, if you want to have your app load as smaller chunks rather than a single large bundle, you need to be careful to ensure that things work even all the backing reducers aren't yet loaded.

Battery of the Month Club for the win! Or was that just a Canadian thing?
Kinda. The jury is the "fact finder" so only they can decide someone is or isn't guilty. However, a judge has the power to dismiss a case before sending it to a jury. They can say, essentially, this case is easy to decide so we don't need a jury. I'll just decide it now.
How is this admissible as evidence in court? Unknown proprietary processing commissioned and paid for by one of the parties?
I think that's just a poorly written doc that doesn't explain the tradeoffs for each approach.

If you don't want to deal with the tool chain, just go straight to the "Include JS build" section. That one line script tag is all you need.
So go is trying to be a server-side-render framework here, what about the SPA style in that go is a simple json-api server, and let SPA to do all the template and render, is gin the best framework for that? new to golang here.
How deeply narcissistic arrogant and authoritarian one should be to promote the normalization of any kind of censoring?
I read this article to imply that because I have no trespassing signs that I am a racist and I should be letting random people wander onto my property? I so I disagree as would my highly diverse friends. My signs are to provide legal boundaries of protection for my family and horses. Criminals do not read signs but lawyers and the Sheriff absolutely do.

I should add that there are 18 million acres of BLM land for people to wander and explore freely in my state along with a couple of the largest national parks in the country. I doubt any one human could explore all of it in their lifetime. The public land contains some of the most incredible wilderness and scenery. There is no need for anyone to be wandering onto my flat boring horse pastures.
I think the statement “It may be necessary at some point soon for citizens to take up arms against the government.” is way, way softer than “Are you ready to take up arms against the government?”

Isn’t the former taught about every kid in the US when they learn about the constitution?

The reality is the path towards those levels require scope, and scope is rare due to prices law.

As a principal engineer, my greatest impact was selling stake holders on large projects which created a vacuum for people to level up on.

However, so many companies are highly constrained by either lack of resources or unimaginative leadership.

At those levels, it isn't about technical depth but organizational understanding and strategy to deploy resources.

From a land-use perspective, growing this way can be very efficient. With most industrially grown crops you are essentially limited to one "layer" of crops; but here you could stack crops in a warehouse (though similar arguments apply to vertical farms using artificial light).
That's part of the story. What has happened to violent crime rates since June 2020 in the US? I'll leave that as a googling exercise but something tells me you already know and are hand-waving.

Blood pressure medicine is probably one of the biggest factors in pushing adult life expectancy past 60. Antibiotics get all the credit but I think their biggest demographic impact was reducing child mortality from middle ear infections.

Wow, I love HN submissions sometimes (in terms of picking up random and interesting factoids) so thanks for posting this.

Prior to clicking I sort of assumed it would be about the Homestead Act of 1862 and the invention of the barbed-wire fence (ala 'Don't Fence Me In' movement)

See "'The devil's rope': How barbed wire changed America" https://www.bbc.com/news/business-40448594
Yep. The other response has it pretty right. I don't really care that i use _all_ the cores. Ideally i have one or two dedicated to IO, some for general computation, but most importantly i need things to get the fuck out of the main thread as fast as possible. User clicks somewhere, offload any computation to a coroutine on the background. If you don't do this, your UI will die. Even small, 50ms calculations are dreadful if ran on the UI thread. That means 3 dropped frames.

Structured concurrency just means that i can both not really care where it goes, be generous on coroutines (I have only screwed up once, and that was by having hundreds of threads deadlocking on database access. Otherwise, you most likely have... 50 running at worst?). Structured concurrency also means that the moment i drop out of a screen, every computation launched in the context of this screen and not a higher level is just dropped immediately, meaning it runs just when I need it to
No, I would state that you're in denial of objective reality in a different way than the parent comment.
I'm constantly in a state of flipping between "this is a psyop" to "stupider things have come to light."

I guess my best example is how people claim 9/11 was an inside job. All the evidence is made up of "mistakes" or inconsistencies that someone found by playing back the videos over and over in their basement.

I would think anyone with the means to fake an attack like that would be able to do so without making such trivial mistakes... but then lets say that it was totally an inside job. All those mistakes don't matter because everyone believes it anyways. This is similar to the Holocaust in the sense that a lot of people simply didn't believe it was happening because it was too crazy, too big of a thing to happen.

* want to say, I don't believe in that conspiracy at all, was more thinking out loud.

In regards to the UFOs... what benefit is there for the pentagon to put on this whole show? (Yes, I know ppl more or less asked for it but it doesn't mean they had to)
what impact on the credibility of a study does a discredited 'expert' have? I guess we have to work out how much that expert contributed to the study?
I'll put myself at risk here and suggest that it's more tragic for the child to die because we feel empathy for the parents, who cannot bear to lose their child, or empathy in the sense of transferring the feeling to imagining our own children, if we have them, in the place of the dead child.

This is partly tied to social expectation about how close family feels about their children vs their parents.
Incidentally, I've found golang to be more verbose than Java.

Generics help a little bit, but the fact remains that error checking is pervasive and verbose, and you can't chain calls (e.g. slice.Map(func(a int) { return a * 2 }).Filter(func (a int) { return a % 2 == 0}).Reduce(0, func(a int, i int) { return a + i }) is not something that can be supported by golang when errors are involved, not to mention the extreme verbosity since it does not have a short way to pass functions).
As a react dev, I don't like CSS in JS either. It brings back the old font tag approach of individually styling components.

As an alternative, you can just assign class names to components and use global CSS like the old days, if you prefer. Sass is pretty great, basically CSS with better selectors and variables.
>have "seen more UFOs than I can count," and that he’s been tracked by supernatural entities that caused his car and appliances to malfunction. "

Stuff like this casts doubt to his honesty or his sanity.
As did I, resulting in slight disappointment when I eventually figured out what this was actually about. There sure are some code bases out there that could use a bit of de-pranking. ;-)
> sometimes judicial controversies spring up in the US.

I think you are massively understating the instability the SCOTUS has presented in the past few weeks by overturning existing case law.
They’re going to be made regardless of whether you buy them or not.

Stop using "science" and anything else produced by people who "believed in the supernatural", and see precisely how far that gets you.

If people would never need to go before a judge for any type of action, there would be no need for a lawyer. A contract, when presumably violated, gets adjudicated by a judge. Everything a lawyer does is judge centric. Ultimately, the law is meaningless without a judge to decide its meaning.
Right, belief in god or supernatural is still compatible with a belief in science and the scientific method. the laws of nature and physics, and even evolution, do not preclude a god; god can be seen as the author of, or even the embodiment of, these laws.
Or you just manage state in the server. With https://inertiajs.com/ you can even afford to not to declare an API and still manage the state back there.
IANAL. However, I have worked with lawyers when I worked in a large corp and one thing they did consistently well was highlighting risk and providing the business unit with information on where the landmines lie.

One of the very nuanced discussions I had in the last few years was with an IP lawyer when I started my company. His questions and solution was very insightful. I wouldn't have arrived at such an elegant solution myself.
Not fully trusting pharmaceutical companies (or any company for that matter) with monopolies and state granted liability exemptions is completely fair in my opinion, especially when the targets are children.
It was a poke at a very smart but also very annoying FP troll @dibblego

Your $4000 figure is way too high for something comparable with the ancient workstation. Try $800. And 130W might be low.
That transistor wear is going to be on a timescale far longer than at issue here - the silicon aging effects referring to will take place over decades of full time for use at low operating temperature - none of these graphics cards are anywhere near that old.
We can split the difference; a 35 year old emulating a 19 year old.
I would absolutely propose laws to regulate THC. One of the big advantages of legalisation is the ability to apply targeted & graduated rules to products.
Agreed. I don't actually care if people enjoy my land in polite ways but I do not want to be held liable by a court for their injuries when the snakes gnaw on them. A "No Trespassing" or "enter at own risk" sign is at least a gesture towards avoiding that; altho I'm informed it won't actually help in court.
Positive in what sense, and positive for who? My family immigrated from a country with a rigidly hierarchical social structure, where they were landed elites. That made us natural Obama voters, allies against German and Scots-Irish Americans (you know, “rednecks” who “cling to their guns and religion”). I don’t begrudge anyone in West Virginia thinking that immigration and the resulting cultural change has been bad for them. It has.

Too bad that the adventure game genre faded after that period. Those that survived went for 3D rendering, which for adventure games just doesn't feel right. I'll always take an old 2D hand painted adventure game over a 3D one.

There are levels to it.
In my experience the experience with Redux Toolkit is awesome, it's essentially an opinionated way to use Redux for modern web applications and I believe they really hit the mark when it comes to reducing boilerplate and the need for extra deps. Although I'm still not a big fan and prefer to use built-in tools of React to manage state when possible (now that we have Context, Suspense, etc.)
Deterrence once again!
When I was a kid and Super Nintendo was the new hotness, a friend and I loved 'Shadowrun'.

A group of us had played various TT games over the years and loved video game adaptations but that one in particular was fantastic for an ARPG.

We had for years wondered where a spell was that was listed in the manual.

We tried everything, asked everyone we could think of, when finally we decided to call the Nintendo Power hotline, whatever it was called.

The charges started immediately and as you listened to a recorded spiel.

I think was several selections later we spoke with an agent who looked it up and informed us he could tell us for an additional fee. We agreed and he informed us the spell had been removed either prior to release or in the localization.

We were devasated.

Weeks later my Dad gets a call from my friend's parents. We go over and they explain they had a huge phone bill because apparently my friend had called them back asking all kinds of stuff for games, then it progressed to phone sex lines.

Of course this was all my fault. So not only did I have to do yard work all summer to pay it down, but he got to enjoy his summer scott free.

My question was how did they not know either time it was squeaky-voiced kids.

I guess they didn't have to since all the commercials said something like 'kids must have parents permission to call'.

Guess they got paid either way.
I think we are writing past each other. The article talks about lawyers being good communicators and being prepared, the implication being for court to argue in front of a judge. This is what I am saying is a tiny, infinitesimally small portion of the legal profession as a whole.

You changed the topic to be “with an eventual audience of a courtroom and a judge in mind”, which I don’t disagree with. This needs to be the consideration, even though the vast majority of work never ends up having that audience. But this has nothing to do with being a good communicator that shows up prepared, as per the article.
Really surprised there was no mention on MobX. I've used int for lots of projects and loved it.
Agreed! I'm surprised at the comprehensive work going into researching the history of state management in this article while completely missing MobX.

What problem does MobX not already solve?

On the other hand, the Google Timeline only records that your phone was there, so very weak evidence that you were not somewhere else. Especially if no one sees you because it's closed. In addition, many phones (or emulators) will let you fake your GPS position which Google Maps will happily record.

I don't understand why we are so keen on trusting algorithms above people. In this case, algorithms that are not remotely meant to be trusted by third-parties but are meant to keep a history for oneself.
> The really desirable people to advertise to are the ones who have more money to spend.

The people you want to advertise to are not necessarily people who have money. It’s people who will buy your product. That’s the supposed value of online advertising: better targeting. There is still plenty of money to be made outside of the most affluent segments.

> My guess is that a person who subscribes to the entry level of a product is more likely to be upsold to something else than a free user is going to even think about paying.

That’s true. But you still need a way to onboard people on the first paying tier at some point.

> try watching TV during the daytime and it is depressing to see ads for prescription drugs and Medicare scams and personal injury lawyers

That’s because of the demographic who watch TV during daytime: mostly retired people or unemployed people amongst which disabilities must be above average. Forty years ago you will have bombarded with ads for soap.
If you’re on a Mac or iOS you can use Reeder, which syncs to iCloud and eliminates the need for any other cloud service. I think other RSS apps may do the same.

HTML is hard to compose (as in composing a page out of modular components), reuse (your toolbar everywhere has to recreate a bunch of components, like the nav section, logged in state, etc.).

Sure you can do that with server-side templates, but it's more readable (especially in a team) to use React components.

For me the main benefits of React didn't really shine until I had to maintain complex state and component trees among multiple devs. What is overkill for a simple blog is an absolute godsend for more complex apps.

Although frankly I still think Angular had a much better architecture, and I'm kinda sad React took over. But hey the frontend landscape gets a revolution every year or two (sigh) so who knows what the dominant paradigm will be by 2024.
