In the eighties and nineties it was certainly the case that Friday lunchtime was nearly always spent in the pub - other days also, but less frequently so. In one particular project this effectively turned into a four and a half day week, and the expression 'going back to the office to log off / collect my coat' became a running joke. This was software development but in many other industries, particularly creative ones, this was very much the norm. In my experience this started to change mid-late nineties.

As others have commented, the symbiotic bond with the boozer that was ingrained in the culture has largely vanished, and young people in the UK would rather hang out with their friends in other places and ways, and drink far less than their elders did/do.
Unfortunately you are confusing “medical standard of care” with the “standards of medical care”.

“The most common legal definition of standard of care is how similarly qualified practitioners would have managed the patient’s care under the same or similar circumstances. This is not simply what the majority of practitioners would have done.”

Source: https://biotech.law.lsu.edu/map/StandardofCare.html

As you can see, patients are not qualified to comment on the medical standard of care and unfortunately how you “feel” isn’t a consideration in the decision as this is established in case law.

To your larger point, if you are dealing with a negligent doctor the place to address it is at a medical licensing board. With a single paragraph complaint they will gut a doctor for diagnosing anyone with “anemia”.

Instead of spreading partially misremembered stories online and spreading vitriol I suggest you use the many, free channels available for recourse if you feel your doctors actions constitute malpractice.

I appreciate these things can all sound similar and be confusing. Perhaps best to leave to the professionals dedicating 10+ years to learning the trade.

Even pubs that are free of tie don't necessarily own the land/building, they'll lease it from a property company (usually one specialising the hospitality).
Zig looks very promising, but there are a few nitpicks I have which keep me from deep diving into it. The most annoying thing I've found so far is treating unused variables as compiler errors. I understand this is something more and more languages are doing, but I can't get over it. It makes writing and prototyping code annoying and tedious, especially during the initial learning phase. Zig trusts the programmer to do things like manually manage their memory, but unused variables is a bridge too far I guess. I don't understand why this isn't a compiler option.

I don't want to leave a purely negative comment so I'll add that the only reason I'm posting in the first place is because, my own personal annoyances aside, the language does look very nice. Especially comptime, I wish every language had a similar construct built in as seamlessly as it is in zig.
This might drop off with age. I'm in my early fifties and only ever saw tattoos on bikers, sailors, manual labourers and Bon Scott. I don't think criminality was ever the main association, although I always assumed the tattooed men knew criminals from watching TV news.

Younger people would have never made those mental associations but like you, I do struggle to disassociate tattoos with lower class people. I often wonder what some of these young people are going to do as they get older, as the heavily tattooed amongst them just look like an indiscriminate mess of green and black bad decisions.
Apps haven't needed this permission for most use cases for 5+ years now... only now is the ability to request it being taken away from the last ones (unless they have an exception based on a legit use case like file managers)

This is incorrect.

I’ve treated hypokalemia in thousands of patients. It takes days with oral routes.

Also, a BP of 160 is not dangerously high. Particularly if you are young, healthy or known to the doctor as it is most likely white coat.

I could describe out the flaws in the leg length discrepancy and your podiatrists argument but I think I’ve made my point.

I have repeatedly demonstrated your believed truths to be largely invalid yet you feel the confidence to speak with absolute certainty, as if your experience is ground truth.

Please stop spreading falsehoods and vitriol about my profession. I have sacrificed over a decade and given up a more lucrative career to help others and your actions are dismissive.

If you have had multiple expert opinions (I.e. not he said she said with podiatrist and doctor) or a legal proceeding demonstrate your doctor was negligent then please don’t speak as your opinion is medical truth.

Edit: On second thought I can’t believe I responded seriously to a poster who thinks they gave himself symptomatic hypokalemia because they were “testing an eggplant curry recipe literally every night for a couple of weeks” and treated it by eating a single bag of baby spinach.

This is obviously a joke, right…? You do know that eggplant contains potassium..?

Presumably they are referring to how the `--first-parent` flag works as it only uses the head of the branch from a given merge instead of including each commit from the merge.

Some projects prefer rebasing onto master instead of merging onto master or squashing onto master.

If you rebase onto master but don't clean up the commits at the end of the PR, this litters master with a bunch of "top level" commits that don't build and cause git-bisect's test to fail due to those commits not working in the first place.

If you rebase onto master but you do clean up your commits such that each commit onto master represents a fully functional version of the project, this isn't a problem however it can make a bisect take way longer than if just merge commits are tested.

If you are rebasing to this degree, I don't really understand the purpose of the rebase for a feature or issue branch (as to this degree, the last commit is the only "completed" commit of this type of branch and you are effectively squashing). It makes sense for say a release branch so you can integrate hotfixes/patches but that workflow can be just as if not more effectively handled via a merge or a squash as well.
OSM’s attribution is non-negotiable. It’s part of the Open Database Licence and also the Contributor Terms under which individual mappers agree that the OSM Foundation can sublicense their work. There is no legal way around it save for contacting each individual mapper for permission… which is clearly impractical.

By contrast, Mapbox ask for a credit as part of a commercial agreement, which by definition can be negotiated away. I guarantee if you call up Mapbox and offer them enough money, they’ll flex on their logo requirement. There is simply no legal way to do that with OSM.
I’m happy to hear that :-)
Yeah, but we got integrated GPUs which share memory memory with the CPU - consoles, mobiles, have done this forever, and it seems that sharing memory between the CPU and GPU is the way to go, considering stuff like the M1.
Usually they weren't illogical but they were hard to understand for the user. Bluetooth scanning for example requires the location permission for example, which seems illogical until you find out that advertisers worked out they could put bluetooth beacons all over the place and track the users location by checking which beacons are in range.

So apps have to request all these scary permissions so they can do regular things. But there is really no alternative.

The senate works as intended (if you call that working).

The house is utterly broken. The half a million people in Wyoming get one representative in the house. By that logic, California's 40m people should have 80 representatives. Instead we only have 53.

The problem is that at some point they simply capped the size of the house. It should really be ~2 times as big as it is now.

> I live in the EU and I have a hard time finding anything even resembling anime on the TV and any public media.

What does "I live in the EU" mean specifically? I grew up in Italy and I can 100% guarantee you that most Italians (and from what I heard Spaniards and French too) are very familiar with anime. Anime is *huge* in Italy (at least it was 30 years ago). I grew up with Ranma 1/2, Sailor Moon, Dragonball, Evangelion, GTO, and a lot of other older "Italian-ified" anime that I don't even know the proper name of (because they got translated into Italian). Italy is home to the world's second largest anime/comic convention after Comiket (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucca_Comics_%26_Games). I live in Japan now, and I don't know what kids these days watch on TV in Italy (if they even watch TV) but every single one of my peers is familiar with anime as a medium and has watched several dozens of series growing up (and some of us still watch them today). All of this from public TV and public media.

EDIT: https://www.otaquest.com/anime-in-italy/ good article about it actually

Overhead itself might not be the problem. But it is process it leads to. One way I could see is to mandate one single list price. No discounts. If hospital wants to do charity they can setup fund that pays the bill or part of it back to itself.

That or you are stuck with somebody fighting CI or issues that aren't reproducible in their environment. It's not necessarily a junior dev issue and can just be "our tooling sucks and management refuses to invest time or money into fixing it". It's not an ideal or sustainable work environment but it's something that even senior devs still have to deal with.

Of course that should still be rebased down to a reasonable history.
It wasn't even that long ago, in 2011-2012 i worked at a place which "pub lunched" multiple times a week. Hell, our yearly IT budget had its 1st draft written in a bar on a Tuesday morning.

When i lost 25 kg in 3-4 months, i combined weight lifting with rope skipping ( every day) and some additional sport.

My heart pounded out of my chest every single time. But I lost weight with a very fast pace and didn't adjust my food too much ( i actually ate more, but healthier alternatives).

Muscle made me gain weight less fast on low motivational periods.

I now restarted sports and doing inline skating + fitness. Going up a bridge first to get my heart pounding again after 5 years inactivity. It feels great.

I'll try to change habits every month for muscle confusion. Since the human body optimizes for what you do ( and when) a lot. Inefficiency is key.
‘’The minister said the main problem is the lack of dollars and appealed to some two million Sri Lankans working abroad to send their foreign exchange earnings home through banks instead of informal channels’’

This sentence demonstrates the huge disrespect for private property by the Sri Lankan government: those remitted dollars belong to the people, I hope they use the ,,informal channels’’, like cryptocurrencies (BTC or Monero), that’s the least violent way to get rid of the corrupt government.
Usually problems arise before solutions. I’ve been thinking the same things and welcome this post.

On some projects I maintain a set of local fixes that I regularly rebase on top of the latest code. I don't need to run a bisect on those.

I've also managed other projects/branches like you have, merging the changes into my work.

I also use the cherry picking feature (which rebase builds on) a lot. That is for things like creating hot fixes, pulling in some upstream patches to my local fixes, reordering a branch, etc.

I wish I didn't have to think about it and git supported file renaming properly so a unit of change that hasn't much sense when it is split can stay a unit, but without it yes, I think it makes sense to commit renames separately so history can be tracked more easily.

I think git can be configured on how hard it tries to find renames from similarity between a deleted file and an added file.
There's only one way: Trying it out.
I’m not sure what US bars you’ve been to, but I definitely haven’t seen anywhere near that level of difference to a pub in the UK. There’s often more of a focus on food and meals in a pub than a typical bar that’s branded as a bar, but both seem to encourage longer visits, pubs slightly more so.
Well, you can look at the author's past HN submissions to see what was meant.

There are several layers to this story

If you collapsed in a mall in the 1960 your chance of having died on the spot from a preventable cause were much higher (like smoking, or a non-diagnosed heart problem)

Today, that chance is also smaller. Defibrillators help but not in all cases.
This would be a nice option to have, but it's only useful for a small number of tech affine people who know what they're doing. If the location doesn't agree with the IP address, the app would know it's not real. And if this is used with banks or payment services people are going to get their accounts disabled.

In general, I'm not sure spreading random fake news about yourself is such a great idea unless everybody does it. And everybody doesn't do it, because if everybody cared so much about these things the problem wouldn't exist in the first place.

I sold an open source company in 2015 - video log [1].

I generally found the open source nature more of a liability. One which I could not ignore because our project was very public. The approach I took was to acknowledge questions like “what IP acts as your differentiator?”, diffused it and talked about the business itself. Being subject matter experts in the software was a big selling point because it was a hedge against them taking the source (Apache or MIT licenses - I forget) and using it themselves.

Not sure what value you provide beyond the source code but that’s something you can sell - being open source is not a feature when it comes to acquisition or sale of a company, IMO.

Or use something specific like libdatachannel https://libdatachannel.org/

If you’re using WebRTC data channels in a client server config then infra is no more complex than a regular setup because the server will almost certainly have an external facing IP address.

People should really try using WebRTC as well because you can get the full pipeline setup for a toy demo in a couple of slow days. I did whilst also writing my own signalling server in Go without having used Go before!

It’s certainly not any more complex than rolling all the stuff the article is talking about on top of raw UDP.

Developers weren't forced into using CUDA, that was entirely because of their ecosystem being much better than anyone else's.

Facebook and Google obviously wouldn't want to lock themselves into CUDA for PyTorch and Tensorflow, but there genuinely wasn't any other realistic option. OpenCL existed but the implementation on AMD was just as bad as the one on NVIDIA.

Consider that Blender's Cycles render engine had only gotten OpenCL support when AMD assigned some devs specifically to help work through driver bugs and even then they had to resort to a 'split kernel' hack, which recently led to OpenCL support once again being entirely dropped as the situation hadn't really improved over the decade. Instead the CUDA version was ported to HIP and a HIP supporting Windows driver was released.

Even now, if you need to do GPGPU on PCs, CUDA is essentially the easiest option. Every NVIDIA card supports it pretty much right from launch on both Linux and Windows, while with AMD you currently only get support for a few distros (Windows support is probably not too far off now), slow support for new hardware and a system of phasing out support for older cards even if they're still very common. On top of that, NVIDIA offers amazing profiling and debugging tools that the competition hasn't caught up to.
>Go outside, work hard and sweat for an hour, eat a nutritious meal and get a good amount of sleep.

You didn't give definitions for any of those terms, nor good values they take from their domains.

There has to be one and only one definition of each. We have to know exactly what macro and micro nutrients the human body needs, and how many calories per person, per lifestyle.

Science has no answers to this, bar the consumerist publications of the cancer-curing properties of grilled avocados or somerhing.

What I understood from your post is I can sleep for 6 hours, briskly walk to the supermarket, and cook 3 XL eggs with a handful of bacon, as a pre-lunch.
Sure, but pinned memory is often a limited resource and requires the GPU to issue PCI transactions. Depending on your needs, it's generally better to copy to/from the GPU explicitly, which can be done asynchronously, hiding the overhead behind other work to a degree.
I remember this, back when I was working in the 90s, I worked with some ex BT engineers, they would go to the pub practically every lunch time. I soon learned to curtail it myself as I found myself coming across as overly aggressive in emails.

After that, I got a job where my mentor was a borderline alcoholic, we were always travelling for work, he would take customers out for long lunches pretty much every day, 3-4 pints was normal, then, in the evenings, he always seemed to know a pub where he could get a lock in, I was hungover a lot of the time.
Many Democrats think that the 2016 election result was rigged.

https://blogs.lse.ac.uk/usappblog/2018/09/11/many-democrats-...

Democracy for me, not for thee.

In their study of voter confidence in national elections 2000 through 2012, Michael Sances and Charles Stewart found that while most supporters of both the winner and loser of an election are very confident in that their own vote was counted correctly, the confidence of those on the losing side slightly decreases. Moreover, the confidence of those on the winning side increases significantly from its pre-election level.
I'd really like issues porcelain that is built over git so that when I clone I get all of the project's history, as well as it being merged with pull requests etc.

I hate that the github/lab hosting solutions end up with a central database to keep track of issues, CI, etc. It breaks the whole "distributed" model.

+1 Online poker was very popular in the late 00's/early 10's (Omaha hasn't had AI dominated play - yet.) where people would self-publish and distribute their tips & tricks to new players if you bought their DVD & PDF set. Decisions made at every stage impact how other players interpret and play the game, and forces you to quickly learn situational awareness in order to best adapt in a changing environment. You could start out with memorizing the starting hand probabilities, read what the strongest 5-card combo on the board could be, and then aspire towards playing GTO to maximize the number of hands won. Even though you'd only be playing with a few dollars, the human element of stubbornness kicks in when having to top up your chips after losing a big hand, and that reward mechanism "spins the same gears" in your brain as the endgame in an RTS video game does. Not to mention the boost it gives to real-life skills of dealing with imperfect information events.
