> 1. Sometimes for no apparent reason, you'll start crying

I don't think this has anything to do with being a parent.
that is really cheap compared to here(canada). just for 2 chicken burgers, + 1 hamburger, its about 12USD

i have to always ask for my food made "fresh", otherwise you run risk of getting "old" food.
the one closest to my house is always slow, wait 5+ minutes for old food... or wait 10-12 minutes for "fresh" (quarter of the time we still have to complain about it being old/dry).

i know plenty of people who do this always, so i guess always backing up the line. really i dont think it backs up much anything as most mcdonalds appear to be overly staffed with people doing nothing at times standing around.
A reasonable person reading your comment could infer that the “other 65%” of Americans are all in agreement on something, and the reply simply disagreed.

Sometimes when there is a misunderstanding of the writer’s intent, it is an issue with the clarity of the writing and not an issue with the reader.
You seem to mean being a "racist" is just saying racist things. Which means nearly nothing to me. I have no idea what you mean by Racist Reasoning™ when his real reasoning is completely different to what you have experienced before, as I described above.

There is meaning to words further than Prima Facie. We aren't programmed robots that interpret words like a machine, they have an added effect on the rest of our human 'functionality', which people commonly try to access via emotions, persuasion and hypothetical arguments.

Real racism happens whether or not you police saying Racist Words. The fact that I have to explain this is beyond credibility.

It would appear that racism in your country is like saying some Magic Words that summon angry political groups and has almost nothing to do with intent, logic, meaning or anything else. Just saying words is bad enough to be condemned, like He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named in Harry Potter.

I had more explanation written out, showing how the traditional Scholastic dialogue works in Master and Commander, when Russell Crowe and Paul Bettany are discussing the fate of a sailor who failed to salute, and how they let go of making "official statements" in favour of personal, emotional arguments and come upon the truth through that dialogue. I have lost interest in responding to this hyper-literal, internet Enlightenment view which encourages mediocrity and tribalism.

I have zero sympathy for your view, it oversimplifies life into a world-view that can't contain it and has almost no meaning. If this is where the conversation ends, I would be very happy with that.
Can't say about the 1970s, but there's a chart in this article showing that total water usage for southern Nevada has indeed decreased since 2002.

OK.

I grew up in a pseudo-rural, medium sized town.

There's a lot of good things that I could tell you about the people -- but I don't think they're qualitatively that different from people in most cities.

But I can also tell you that they're regressive, judgmental places. If someone thinks you screwed up or did something that is in their eyes wrong, everyone knows.

I can't disentangle the assertion that small town culture is somehow special (and I'm not sure whether the author's assertion this is true) from the kind of rigid roles people in this kind of place impose upon one another (which is inextricably tied to the politics of the place, too).

edit: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31978527 This comment explains what I'm trying to say quite well.
> Man bites dog is news. Dog bites man isn't.

I become increasingly convinced that a significant part of our deficiency in reporting is that we've conflated "news" with "current affairs" long enough that we've forgotten that both are actually worthy of mental bandwidth.
Best comment in this thread. The guide does a so-so job of building on terms previously defined. The term accumulator, for example, is not defined before use. The first appearance of it is under Catamorphism, where the guide says, "A reduceRight function that applies a function against an accumulator and each value of the array (from right-to-left) to reduce it to a single value."

I note, in passing, that the actual guide is just titled "Functional Programming Jargon". It does not claim to be "in plain English".
Not everyone can be right. Without the media to tell people that they are right, how else will they know?

The reinforcement and advertising loops are real and effective at creating and expanding the divide.

Perhaps you don't recall a time before there was such a thing as Fox News. Back when the hardest new choice was: Dan Rather, Peter Jennings, or Tom Brokaw?

But this is how all aircraft autopilot systems work - they expect a pilot to be able to step in. The pilots don't leave the controls.
Longer drives are where I have noticed it to be significantly less fatiguing. The hands free systems would be even better on some of those roads.
Right on. Previous devs at co I joined wanted to play DevOps cowboys. They used Ansible scripts to spin up various AWS services costing the company over 100K/yr.

New lead came in, got rid of that crap by using 3rd party services to spin up infrastructure. Got a load balancer, a few VMs + DB. Reduced the cost down by 85% and greatly simplified the entire stack.

I learned a really valuable lesson without having to make that mistake myself.

I understand why people get excited about tooling. It's cool to learn new things and automate stuff away. I'm prone to that myself and do this on my own server when I get that itch.

Having said that, it's wrong to foist this stuff onto an unsuspecting company where the owners don't know any better about tech, that's why they hire other people to do that for them and seeing that just left a bad taste in my mouth for overcomplicated setups.

I get that SV is different, that's why tools like K8 are made and I would jump on those tools on a heartbeat as needed.

But for other smaller businesses, the truth is they just need a boring monolothic load balanced app with a few VMs and a DB sprinkled with 3rd party services for logging or searching or other stuff not core to the business.
The explanation is really, really easy though. Nearly all the advertising has gone away. There's no money in the business past chum boxes now. And the same is happening to the trade press and specialist magazines and all the other good media things we used to have. Not all progress is forward progress.

To be absolutely fair: A chicken breast is not a breaded chicken patty and isn't really a good substitute to a fast food sandwich. Part of the appeal of fast food is the lack of thought that goes into prep. Basic warm and serve items from the grocery store - prepared patties and prepared fries(chips!) - is the comparable solution.

You'd have to likely cut, tenderize, and bread the breasts before shallow frying in a pan and heat up some oil to fry the fries/chips in. The patties and prepared chips can just go in the oven while you wait.

Every steel structure needs periodic repair and repainting, like the famous bridges in the US

As much as there's a tendency for shoddy repairs by some there's also a tendency to be biased towards alarmism by some others.

Stripping four layers of led based paint is some job, no wonder people are reluctant to do it.

Sounds like repainting but addressing areas of corrosion individually might be the best way of going about it
Can HN users see there's more nuance to performance than marketing jargon?
smaller communities exist in big cities too. They might be neighbourhoods like a small town, or interest, cause or activity-based. The trick is not to defer to government to provide them for you, which I think is harder in big centers.
> you're referring to the safety of the driver who was experimenting with I

Isn't the safety of running the beta (the issue being discussed) a function of the safety of the driver?
It is in the US for brokerages. Many are at $150 to close the account, and they’ll debit your balance if you transfer assets out, thereby creating a negative cash balance at your new brokerage if you didn’t have enough cash to cover it.

OpenPilot doesn’t have a data labeling team. I think you should do some more research before doing a drive by comment on something you know nothing about.
I greatly appreciate this response. We’ve come full circle.

When seen by a competent physician who appropriately consents patients understand complications.

Your issue is that your mother was misdiagnosed (at least by what was communicated on this thread) and by your description I agree.

I addressed this in further detail to one of your comments above, but for any readers I would like to also clarify this here.

Your original comment stated:

“There are quite a few incompetent doctors, sadly, and they stick together and support each other. While I'm generally reluctant to bring up identity politics, it does appear that women and people of colour tend to experience this worse than others”

You later clarified:

“Essentially my mum lives on an island nation where there is only a singular local hospital with a fairly poor reputation.”

I explained above why isolated locations such as this island with a singular hospital don’t attract recently trained/high quality physicians which is also obvious. Consequently the percentage of poor/incompetent physicians will be much higher. There are also fewer physicians for phyisican-physician consults and a singular hospital such as yours probably doesn’t have morbidity and mortality rounds and a QA program.

Therefore your experience, in an island nation with one hospital, is not representative of the modern healthcare experience and the physicians there are likely not on par with metropolitan centres.

With that said, you also choose to live in an island nation (irrespective of the reason this is a choice). That comes with the known disadvantage of poor access to quality healthcare just like every other white collar profession.

It is important to not generalize such an atypical practice setting to the general population as this is a heavily biased view.
Just to add, while it is an island nation, it's not remote. It's also quite wealthy, but with a relatively small and elderly population.

While I'm not a doctor, I'd imagine that if I was a good doctor, I'd rather work somewhere that I'm likely to get exposure to interesting cases, or hospital known for producing quality research, or a teaching hospital, or at least want to live somewhere that I could go to conferences and otherwise work with other smart people. Indeed, I moved to London for similar reasons in my career.

The way the local hospital tries to maintain some level of competence is by flying doctors over for a day or two a week, but even with that it's an uphill battle trying to attract anyone in the prime of their career. It's more of a place you go for an easy retirement, earning relatively good money but for boring work in poor facilities. Even then, the money isn't comparable to what a late stage career doctor could get working privately in Harley Street for example. We do know a few doctors (and nurses) working over there, and even if they start out enthusiastic, the system ultimately grinds them down until they're apathetic. Some leave, some just give into it.

I appreciate that you obviously can't have excellent doctors everywhere, but at the same time, I bet most individuals' interactions with healthcare are those local community hospitals and pre-retirement GPs with little enthusiasm for the job. I suppose that in healthcare, reaching the best physicians is usually a bad sign regarding your prognosis (or a very good sign regarding your bank balance).
You don’t always need passion about the subject matter. I was not “passionate” about cron jobs but I needed some tooling, built Cronitor, and now I never have to work for somebody else, which is something I CAN get passionate about.
> I won't go,

What if not going costs you more money than Uber? For example, it costs you your job, or visitation with your child? Then you will go.

> or find another (non-ride-sharing) way to get there.

Oh, you'd just do the other thing that is available to do. Why doesn't everyone think of that?

> But then regular cabs are still a thing too.

That would mean that Uber didn't have a monopoly. The goal was for Uber to dump deeply discounted service into the market until the cab companies died. They were pretty successful, because I can't hail a cab on the street anymore. They weren't as successful as they needed to be, because people who drive cabs can do Uber and Lyft at the same time.

> the driver has other jobs they can do if Uber effectively pays below minimum wage.

But if Uber has driven the industry wage down, the other job they do will not be driving you around. They will get a different job, and you will still be paying more.
To me it seems like this is the symptom of a dying industry, the newspaper industry. I can't think of many people who are willing to pay for newspapers or news websites, let alone watch their ads(!). Eventually these papers are for-profit businesses so it's either go bankrupt, or find a way to make money no matter what. It seems that those who survived so far, are picking the latter, each to its own extent.

Hopefully, there'd be a new, sensible way of earning money for decent free press, and this is just a limbo stage.
> There are very, very different views about the role of government and religion in this country, very different takes on morality, responsibility, and lots more. These are not resolvable via compromise.

I spent a lot of my time telling my three kids they have to learn to compromise [with each other!], since the alternatives are much, much worse.

Q: What's the plan for reconcilling "very, very different views" if one is not going to compromise?

This.

Everyone has to do it for the first time; most people never do it more than twice. Kids are incredibly resilient against mediochre parenting (but having an arsehole for a parent can seriously fuck you up, so if you're an arsehole please don't be a parent).
This! Real innovation is doing something without introducing unnecessary complexity and enormous codebases.
Said another way, it seems clear that conflict between people has been becoming more extreme as a consequence of news shifting to a belief based system due to the lower probability that any news source heard is something that can be directly experienced.
A while back I had some of my relatives ask me if we were doing OK with all the rapes happening in California. I had no clue what the hell they were talking about.
You must not drive out in the country often. Railroad crossing with lights are not common outside busy roads. The most you'll have is a railroad crossing sign. Certainly a flashing light system is safer, but you (and that news article) make it sound like it's absence is unusual.
Having LiDAR may make it easier to implement, but there are plenty of humans who can drive well without LiDAR, so having LiDAR isn’t necessary.

I see your point, but helping people at the scene of an accident is not incompatible with bad views on social issues.

Almost all of the heroes of the Titanic, or the Allied soldiers in WWII, would share all of these views. Many of the first responders at 9/11 shared most or all of these views.

Not endorsing or excusing these views, just pointing out that the idea that this is hypocritical is very new
Make sure you (both) take enough time off. Find help so you can take at least one night out a week together. Everyone seems to have their own advice (e.g. literally had two nurses back to back give different advice...aka opinions), you've got to figure out your own, sometimes not perfect way. The kid will adapt, even when you make mistakes.

A lot of pediatricians seem incompetent. Double check their recommendations / work. e.g. "your baby didn't grow" -> "no, you weighted AND measured him wrong, do it again" -> "oh.". If you choose no circumision, American pediatricians seem to have zero idea what to do.

Monitors, we tried video + just sound monitors. Semi-obviously in retrospect, the video ones a) work less well b) take more of your focus. I've read the same about smart-monitors (no first hand), their unreliability ends up making things more stressful.

Stuff to buy for the start; wipewarmer (calmer changing time, as you don't put cold wetwipes on the baby), thermometer (for when you think they're too hot / cold constantly), tiny nail clippers or grider (as, their nails are sharp AF - cut you and themselves), if using formula a Baby Brezza mixer / warmer (it makes warm milk for you in seconds, rather than manually in minutes) + a bottle sterilizer to save time.
Your “Trump nationalists” is a bit too indulgent for what they really are.

Try “Trump’s gang of domestic terrorists” instead, for what they actually are and/or represent.

Then what you call “the middle” suddenly takes on a very different , much less reasonable look.
I opened that post. The top comment asks for mixed DPI, trackpad gestures, and better power management. I had to scan (and click the next page thing) quite a lot to get to something that looked vaguely critical of Unity (and even then it was "collaborate with Gnome more"). I wish they took the other suggestions as seriously…

Unity was entirely pointless though.
“Terf” is very definitely used as a slur, at least in the UK - people labelled Terf in my experience usually describe themselves as “Gender Critical”.
> The fun part of this question is that the answer is: NEVER.

Are you claiming that it is faster in practice to insert an element at the beginning of an array with 1G items, than it is to insert it at the beginning of a linked list with 1G items?

Or that, on average, the time spent traversing the linked list (assuming an average number of cache misses) the time taken to move all elements in the array one to the right?

I am certain the first item will not be true, and the second may or may not be true depending on many many other details (e.g., in a language with a compacting GC, the linked list elements will often be stored approximately like in the array case, and you may not pay too high a cost for cache misses).
> Although I agree with it I think that small towns have something that is lost in big cities which is the sense of community, and that is simply because in towns you know every single person that has some impact in your daily live.
My family is from a small town who moved to the city right before I was born and there is something my mom said to me when I was a kid that got stuck in my mind which is the awareness of death, in big cities is like people don't die because you don't know about it.

Cities have plentiful and varied communities, but it's easier to be lost in the masses. Many people lose empathy amongst so many other humans, or so some claim.

I was raised in a small town. Every coin has its other side. "Every single person has an impact on your life." Certainly if the community disapproves of your appearance, skin color, or religion, they can ostracize you, they'll each take turns with their individual impact to turn your life to shit.

Small towns can be bucolic, beautiful, and communal, however your mileage may vary dramatically from in-group to in-group and tribe to tribe. Beware your own scarlet letter, whether it's your skin color, religion, or otherwise.

> Although it may sound macabre I think that knowing about death helps me better understand being alive.

Wise words.

>When things are not so good financially (e.g. after 30+ years of the destruction of the American manufacturing sector and wholesale movement of capital and labor offshore), this becomes much, much less easy.

Neither of the political parties are doing anything other than lip service to entice jobs back. Trump was the only one to really bring it up in probably 40 years, and he was lambasted.

>Your comment suggests that there's "65%" of the country that just wants to get along. I'm disputing that.

Based on what? There are only a few wedge issues, I think aside from those, most people aren't that far off, even on the issues they are passionate about. The biggest impediment is that the political parties are both extremely economically conservative.
> The lambda calculus is an entirely arbitrary way to organize things in math. It’s not based on nature or truth at all.

Lambda calculus, category theory, and logic are essentially 3 sides of the same coin (the Curry-Howard-Lambek correspondence). The rules of lambda calculus match those of natural deduction. It runs quite a bit deeper than you're suggesting here. It's not just some arbitrary formalism.

> The nationalization of news and politics in a country of 330 million people is toxic.

This. I read it somewhere a while ago that prior to information revolution of late 90s onwards news travelled very slowly. Which meant people consumed more news of happenings around 50KM-100KM radius of their living place. And this reduced exponentially with increased radius. I could totally related to this as when I was in school (late 80s, early 90s) I read physical news paper that carried mostly my district and state news. Once a week I would be exposed to national news and maybe once a month to international news.

But now it's exactly reverse. I get minute by minute update on ongoings of Ukraine war which is half way across the world but have no clue about local politics. The net result being I get more enraged/impacted about happenings on which I have close to zero control but totally oblivious to things that I have control over such as reasons why there are so many broken roads in my vicinity.
How did the poor lose their savings? I'm not from India, I just happened to travel there while that was happening.

My understanding was that everyone could wait in line to exchange their 500/1000 rupee notes for 100 or 2000 notes. The lines were long and the banks were frequently out of money to exchange from, but I thought they could also deposit it to their bank if they had one (letting the bank deal with the demonetized notes).

I know there are also a lot of unbanked in India, but presumably the period for exchanging demonetized notes was long enough to allow them to exchange any cash savings they had.. was this not the case?
