> At 36, I am just old enough to remember when sunscreen wasn’t a big deal. My mom, despite being among the palest people alive, does not remember bringing it on our earliest vacations, or hearing any mention of sun protection by our pediatrician

I'm 40 and it was common when I was a child, on family trips to the beach or similar style vacations. Every family in my neighborhood functioned approximately the same when it came to sunscreen. It was common with other children at school, and among teachers, and so on. There was nothing special at all about the area where I grew up, a white lower middle to middle class area. It was very common knowledge by the late 1980s to wear sunscreen while at the beach. That's an exceptionally low quality set-up by the article's author.
It’s illegal to scam people electronically too. People often scam internationally to evade capture. Email is just considerably cheaper to send internationally and easier to spoof the source.

How many letters do you have to send before you find someone stupid enough to believe that they have to pay the IRS via gift card and that the IRS return address is in Russia? If anyone has tried, they went bankrupt on postage.
> most are booked 12-18 months out

Err, I hate to sound trite, but citation please? I live in the Bay Area of California, and my wife gets her dermatologist appointments in an annoying but reasonable timeframe - nothing like 12-18 months. Not even 12-18 weeks.
Its good to have dependencies archived for continued access to them, but there are efficiency issues with doing that. Using git submodules (or vendoring or similar) means that you and everyone who uses the project is stuck on the exact commit you have chosen for each submodule until they go and modify the git tree to use a different commit for each submodule. This makes it higher friction to update a submodule. You can't just go `git pull` or `apt upgrade` to update the submodule, you actually have to go modify every project that uses the submodule, update and redeploy each one, instead of just updating and redploying the submodule itself.
I was working across the street from the high school today, and was watching some kids race down the street in office chairs. But they weren't cheap Costco ones, they were metal and obviously from the school. I was thinking that they must be really well made.
In case someone goes down this rabbit hole, Nanohydroxyapatite and fluoride seem to prevent caries best together, better than either alone.

Japanese apagard is what I use. Novamin has an analog of hydroxyapatite in it.
Haven't been an EE for a couple of lifetimes now, but iirc yes - best to constantly run (within normal operating limits), rather than run and stop and restart.

That holds (? used to hold?) true from anything to GPUs to individual capacitors, the repetition of the heat cool cycles is the primary cause of wear.

Should be stopped ... its all gimmicks and ads anyway. Its unfortunate that some havent been clued in yet. Its these little things that end up getting more gov oversight added to aspects of our lives it doesnt belong. People too stupid to realize theyre stupid. Im probably one but I dont want the gov to protect me from it.
It’s almost as if unregulated financial institutions don’t operate on the same standards as regulated ones. That would be crazy, though, so it must not be true.

If you’ve never read about what markets were like 100+ years ago (at least in the United States), it’s enlightening. Turns out that people lost money left and right due to fraud and mismanagement. Why would we expect anything different now?
Now the question is 3090 or 4090
It's like they all thought that because they had magic money they could avoid not only the trappings of traditional financial markets, but all the laws of economics.
I've had two friends that fell to a pig butchering scam, and lost thousands. One was from a dating app (maybe romance scam than pig butchering?), another was via a foreign student in an online class the friend was taking. In both cases, fake / scam crypto sites were involved.

The only way to help with this is education - maybe we need a course on online scams that kids need to take to graduate, along with personal finance.
I've used Flask for years and it's been the least troublesome / biggest thing in my stack through everything. Every time I'm like, "I Wish Flask did that," I go to the docs and find out someone already thought about it, implemented it, and documented it. Coding around Flask is so boring I get excited every time.
I think it's worth noting too (now that we're all in the same room) that despite a kind of mythology from people my age (31) that it really wasn't Shigeru Miyamoto and the 80's Star Fox brigade that made Nintendo what it was; Nintendo has and I hope always be a kind of weird ass toy company that happens to sell, "home computers."

BioMin is every bit as good as Novamin. You are allowed to have comparable toothpaste in the US.

It’s not a myth and not involved in the FDA’s founding, so that statement makes no sense.

Phone numbers work fine but we're missing solid cryptographic verification systems on top of them.

Why are registered businesses not verifiable? Or at least banks and government departments? Why can't phones hold an ID in their cloud profiles so switching numbers let's your friends auto-uodate to you?

We could be doing so much better (with the goal of making it practical to whitelist only operate).
Good for you. But what about the rest of us? Or even yourself on any other day?

To equate privacy with convenience is ill advised.
Yeah....that's what I would rely on, the data being scrubbed. /S

Or, you could just leave your phone at home and commit the crime anywhere with the same location data anonymity.

On a side note, isn't it weird how attached we are to our phones it's hard to imagine going anywhere without it? Even to commit a crime!
You said there are false claims about language capabilities, I asked you to list them. It's a reasonable request. I don't want to have false claims on the website.
> Why are you talking about

>> classical liberalism, the scientific method, liberal arts, music, pedagogy, statistics

> when our conversation was about

>> Liberalism and pluralism
> (your words)?

I'm going to make a few points in different threads to ease replies.

First, let's step back. We are different people having a conversation. I often see people claiming the other person is off topic. Such a claim assumes that one person gets to define what on topic is. One person is not granted that power here. Not you, not me.

I have hope that better discussion is possible with a better tone. I'll do what I can to help.

The irony about fetch() finally being a thing and this guide describing it as the modern thing we all have access to now is that going to /r/reactjs and saying "I wrote some code with fetch()" is a bit like coming to HN and saying "I wrote my own crypto and put it in production". You'll be told you need to use a library and regress back to one of the earlier steps in this history.
> Also, what on earth is traditional western society? Like, Greek?

There is some question as to what constitutes "Chinese society" too.

Do you use simplified or traditional characters? Must you simply respect your elders, or do you also need to be subservient to them? Can you trade with the west? Become successful without prior approval? Protest peacefully? Own property?

Next is the worst name for a JavaScript framework. It might as well be called "yet another JS framework." It's things like this that make me ponder self deletion. So much pointless work we create for ourselves.
CF3I is one of the components of R-466a (Honeywell Solstice) which will be the lower-GWP R-410a replacement. I am working with CF3I in a fire extinguishing application.
This is the way.

You should be able to immediately tell from looking at any log entry:

* When it happened

* How serious it is (Informational, Warning, Error, Fatal - at a minimum)

* Type of issue (ideally a unique issue type from a list of known issue types)

* Who logged it (system / subsystem / module / line number)

* What happened (including any germane variable values)
Google's reputation on such things is far from spotless. That's not HN's fault.

Just to be clear, a dictatorship isn’t necessarily might-makes-right. Actual might-makes-right philosophy is so much worse than just having a thug in power. It’s the difference between Hitler and the Saudis.

Both are bad, but might-makes-right culture of imperialism is waaay worse in its downstream effects. E.g. the Holocaust and Japanese war crimes in China.

I'm always dubious purchasing things like this via Amazon. I'll buy tech gear there or miscellaneous accessories but for something that I'm ingesting or applying to my skin I'm reluctant, especially with it falling into a gray area. Am I being unreasonably paranoid?
Sounds like he's just saying that two things can be true. Police can be racist and blacks can kill the most black people. naturally three things can be true too and maybe he is racist. Seems like the kind of willful misunderstanding of BLM you'd see from racists. That kind of confusion (intentional or not) is another reason why BLM was a terrible name for the movement.
Skimming the docs, I was surprised to see that there appears to be no built-in support for foreign function calls to C libraries ("It's a bold strategy Cotton...")

This makes more sense in light of a comment by the author in a previous discussion about C ABIs [1]:

> Virgil compiles to tiny native binaries and runs in user space on three different platforms without a lick of C code, and runs on Wasm and the JVM to boot. [...] No C ABI considerations over here.

if you're playing guitar at the same time?

Pretty common for folks on stage to reach down and futz with them manually between the songs, or even during the songs. That happens all the time. How else are you going to adjust the knobs on the dials?

You know that songs aren't 100% uninterrupted consecutive guitar notes right? lol

So, parent poster's dad's mistake is a little more understandable than you're giving him credit for.

In fact, if you're not watching the guitarists closely, you might not even notice them stomping on the pedals. You might only notice them bending over to fiddle with the pedals manually.
Reasonable question. There appears to be a shift in the relative incidence rates based on age since 2000 (https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamadermatology/fullarticle...).

Skin cancer rates were always weighted towards older (average age at detection is ~65), but at the same time skin cancers are one of the more common cancers found in young people. Since 2000 where appears to be a decrease in incidence of younger ages, and an increase of those at older ages.

EDIT: Just to add on, I don't know if this age shift effect accounts for everything, but I think it's interesting and relevant.
The data is for online only, as far as I can tell. So the conclusion is more like, a description of a 6'0" man making $62K is more appealing than a description of a 5'6" man making $237K. I suspect that the results for in-person dating would be very different, because height differences in actual couples are less pronounced than stated preferences would suggest (https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal...).

Python (and most languages) and testing likely won't detect the concurrency bug in the above program, unless you get lucky. TLA+ and model checking will.

You use TLA+ to examine a spec or design without the extraneous details and do V&V on it. Then you go back to your code and you can be more confident that what you are making will work as intended. It is complementary, not a full alternative. You'll still want tests for your code.

I'm not sure "compiles to WASM" is a selling point anymore. Are there any serious languages that don't? You'd need to have no way of expressing as C code or LLVM IR, etc.

I feel like you dropped this.
> One sound criticism of BLM has been exactly this,

BLM is about the problem with policing, not just anything that impacts black lives in general so criticizing BLM for not talking about the very real problem of black people murdering black people makes about as much sense as criticizing them for not advocating for more high blood pressure screening.
I fell for this! I got drawn into a conversation but I guess they didn't know what they were doing and they stopped responding. I was still suspicious and would've never sent money.
You are speaking theoretically. That milk was necessary for survival by a small population of humans may have been true aeons ago during some ancient famine. This is not the case right now.

To say that humans can take nutrition from a substance is an argument that there is no criticism of the substance is a bad argument. Humans take energy from pure sugar, or taco bell. Yet to claim they are beyond criticism because they can keep people alive is absurd.
I am not a techbro (not from a tech field) and I don’t want new features, only that the ones it has not stop working. Especially when I am paying for it.
This is wonderful to see! Wow.

Reminds me of that era, when office computers didn't support TCP/IP at the system level: applications had to implement their own stack.

1990s-me used NCSA Telnet on the Mac every day.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/NCSA_Telnet

Once Windows Sockets API was nailed down, a good TCP/IP stack was available on DOS as a system network driver. And IIRC Apple released a system service as well, as a System extension and Control Panel.

All transistors wear out the more you use them.

DRAM is pretty durable but the controller, bus pins, and other parts would be the wear/tear in my opinion. Those other bits inside the DRAM could very well wear out.
In France there's a practice that exists since the Middle Ages, it's called viager. You can sell a property and retain the right to live in it and get a modest down payment much smaller than in regular real estate transactions (sometimes zero), followed by monthly payments that meet your living expenses.

If you die early, the buyer gets the property for the price of the initial down payment which doesn't exceed 30% of the price, if you live for a really long time the monthly payments can easily exceed the price of the property. So effectively, it's a gamble on the lifespan of the seller.
Thanks! I’ll investigate JSONP more and add it to the lesson
The interesting thing about Virgil is that it doesn't use LLVM under the hood: it has its own IR that can compile to native code, JVM/jar's or Wasm

- Location History is turned off by default for your Google Account and can only be turned on if you opt in.

- You can pause Location History at any time in your Google Account's Activity controls.

- You control what’s saved in your Location History. You can view the places where you’ve been in Google Maps Timeline, which you can edit or use to delete your Location History.

And...

- You can turn off Location History for your account at any time.

- You can manage and delete your Location History information with Google Maps Timeline. You can choose to delete all of your history, or only parts of it.

- You can choose to automatically delete Location History that’s older than 3 months, 18 months, or 36 months.

Seriously, I don't see how it could be more flexible and user-controlled than this.

I think what's tripping you up here is that democracy makes no guarantee that the majority decision is correct, but rather what they wanted.

You could deconstruct this idea with something I've always struggled in answering-- is the purpose of representative governance to do the right thing or the thing that the majority desires? Take, for example, slavery-- at one point, the majority desired it but in retrospect we can see it was clearly incorrect, so if you elect someone are you asking them to represent your will or what is correct? Most people treat the two as synonyms and indeed in some perfect plane it would be, but it rarely actually is. But that is another dialogue entirely.

So, for now consider that democracy once permitted slavery; to say it was morally correct or similar because it was the will of the majority would be an argument ad populum, but the decision to permit it based on the majority will is not in itself a statement about correctness only that it was the majorities will.

The majority of crime happens in particular areas, limited and concentratd. Let's presume that's ~80% of crime. The remainding ~20% is everywhere else, and far more random.
