> The only women I heard complaining about having kids are the ones that have none, which is a bit strange - they have only second hand experiences, if any, of having kids.

This is an implicit confirmation bias; of course more of the women that don't want kids will have no kids.
You simply don’t know what you’re talking about. That’s not how the real world works.
If kids are trying to kill themselves it's not the guns that are the problem. I'd argue telling them constantly that they're horrible or incapable for being their race is probably closer to the real problem since that seems to cause a lot of other mental illnesses as well.
Forgive my ignorance, but what's this "deadline for EICAS" you are talking about? Are they going to change part 25 certification requirements? Is there a source, a draft document for that?
North Carolina Looks to Remove Public EV Chargers, Probably to the Trash
I was the one guy who didn’t get ripped off. I sold a Sun Workstation when I was in college to a dude in Bolivia via a freight forwarder.

I didn’t realize at the time (late 90s) that cashiers checks can take 60 days to settle. I was really sweating it for a few weeks, as most of my net worth at the time was tied up in that computer!

This reminds me of what a BASIC programmer friend of mine said about C when he first tried it. After many (mostly senseless) debates, I eventually convinced him to try C after showing some bodged-together flashy graphics demo.

He got me to teach him basic C syntax and then took off on his own, writing a game. After a few weeks of hacking, he presented me with a decent Asteroids clone, "I don't see the point of C."

The funny thing is, when I looked at his main.c file, the entire code was written inside the main function, with copious use of gotos. He had essentially tried to speak BASIC using C.

APL isn't an Algol-like, and you're probably going to have a bad time writing APL trying to use the cognitive tools and intuitions you have as a programmer of Algol-like or even functional languages. This includes the tendency to reach for libraries, when you can, for example, implement an entire U-Net CNN in 30 lines of APL and be competitive with PyTorch performance.

In my (budding) experience, to "get" APL you have to laser-focus on writing beautiful, concise code from the onset. It feels painful as a student to spend weeks writing and re-writing just to produce 2 lines of code, but in the end those 2 lines will be doing the work of 20 lines of Julia, or 200 lines of C, and feel like a pure, direct mathematical expression of the algorithm you intend.
My point is, Canadians think of government land philosophically as something that is not theirs, but rather, owned by the crown -- the Queen. While Americans see public land as their shared land. This mentality penetrates into many of the differences between the two countries in how they govern.
Mens rea is a necessary but not sufficient component of proving a criminal charge - the defendant intended to break the law. Actus reus is also required, which is actually doing the act.

US law doesn't "judge by intent". If you try to murder someone but you don't succeed, you don't get charged with murder.

I understand where you are coming from, but most of the time that's the only way people that live in south or central America can buy stuff online at decent prices. It's cheaper for me to pay the shipping fees to my country than it is to buy stuff here.

I use a freight forwarder to do most of my online shopping through Amazon, ebay and lots of other stores. I've bought everything from phones, TVs and even a standing desk.

It's a huge industry here. If you go to any warehouse district in Miami near the airport you'll find a bunch of these companies.

As a sidenote, I did some small development work for a friend that owns one of these companies. He was running a smallish operation and was making some good money.

There's a couple of software solutions for tracking, billing, ,support and CRM for those types of companies and they are absolutely abismal. There, I gave someone a business idea :)

- You present half truths

- You cast aspersions on Indian judiciary because supposedly Hindus will only support Hindus.(I am giving you a benefit of doubt and took liberty to convert “jury” to judiciary. If you really meant jury you should never ever discuss India)

When I call that out and also tried telling you what actual minority of India* thinks about Hindus in general, I am the one who is misrepresenting. Wow! ( Perhaps you were left with no intelligent counter argument, so simply attack me and accuse me of misrepresenting)

Please try these tactics some where else, HN is certainly not the place.

Most of the smaller providers have either been acquired (e.g. Public Mobile) or downright always been run by the larger telcos (e.g. Virgin Mobile). For both mobile and ISPs, very few companies actually own the infrastructure, most are just leasing bandwidth.
Walking around with a notebook (the paper kind, I like the small pocket sized ones with no rules so you can write music and draw things too) instead of a phone and then coming home and typing what you wrote into a computer is awesome. I wrote a memory allocator and a long form blog post while I was out the other day this way.

For a while I was writing a program to recognize a special kind of rune-like manuscript so the typing part is unnecessary but I realized it's less work to just sit down and type the stuff in. That's not too hard to get distracted from and it gives you way more flexibility.
You can certainly change the crawler's database connection from "localhost" to an IP address on a different machine, but I am unsure how that works with that type of proxy (I had to look up what a socks5 is). Sounds like it can work though.

For what it's worth, most of us have little education on the subject of policing. We're taught a lot about how a biological cell operates, how to structure English grammar, and who fought the War of 1812, but absolutely nothing about how police function, when policing was invented, by whom, where, or to what end[0]. We go through our adult lives believing about police what we absorbed from children's cartoons and, later, TV procedurals or action movies. This leaves us with an impression of the field that is naive, if not outright fantasy.

> If you think about it, does the typical journalist who probably trained in just writing really understand some of these complex topics they write about.

No, but I like to think that journalism is supposed to be about finding the real experts, asking good questions that the general populace would want answered, and judiciously recording and reporting the answers they get. I feel like most of the journalism we get today is more akin to bad interviews, where the interviewer doesn't know when to shut up and let the expert talk haha.

I would compare CNN/WSJ, and Fox/MSNBC. Much closer in terms of tone and target audience.

Reason Magazine is probably the pinnacle of very good right-leaning journalism, filling the same niche as VICE on the left. I really enjoy the excellent journalism of both.

It's not about making numbers look better, it's about ensuring that your people don't become destitute. It's an unfortunate fact that when one third of your population is able to work (naïve example of parents all having 1 child for a generation) then each worker has to feed 3 mouths, 3.5 if they also have one child (the other parent still has two parents but shares the burden of the child). That's will full labor force participation. It's not viable no matter what social or economic system you have.
Last mile connectivity is a bit of a natural monopoly, in Australia they converted that to a government owned monopoly that leases their infrastructure to ISPs. I wonder if Canada should do the same.
In 10 seconds the cops are going to have brainstormed having an officer walk around asking people to move back from them, driving bystanders further and further from whatever is taking place. They will also indiscriminately arrest people now knowing they can just charge them with violating this law. If the cop says you were 6ft away and you say you were 8, who are they going to believe? Does it really matter, you are already going to jail and your phone was unfortunately damaged in the arrest which you were also resisting.

> he developed cold feet pretty fast after an impetuous decision

I don't think it was impetuous. I think he did this all on purpose and planned on using his usual tactics of improvisational manipulation and grandstanding to get what he wanted, whether it was Twitter at a cheap price, manipulating the Twitter stock price to make a quick buck off of his stock purchase, liquidate some of his Tesla stock, seed further discontent on Twitter, spur on rabble around bots (despite knowing full well that Tesla and himself have benefited from Twitter bots and potentially even controlled them), drone on about free speech in some sort of libertarian political play, or whatever else. And it has all failed. Now, he's just gonna let his dirty lawyers figure some way out of it all and move on to the next scam.

Question: so will HN be migrating back to M5 (or another hosting provider).
Thank you, I do hope you get around to building a wiby engine!
It was an SSD that failed in each case, and in a similar way (e.g. both were in RAID arrays but neither could be rebuilt from the array - but I am over my skis in reporting this, as I barely know what that means).

The disks were in two physically separate servers that were not connected to each other. I believe, however, that they were of similar make and model. So the leading hypothesis seems to be that perhaps the SSDs were from the same manufacturing batch and shared some defect. In other words, our servers were inbred! Which makes me want to link to the song 'Second Cousin' by Flamin' Groovies.

The HN hindsight consensus, to judge by the replies to https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32026606, is that this happens all the time, is not surprising at all, and is actually quite to be expected. Live and learn!
It does matter. When you make claims that a small group of people say is not possible and are quickly shouted down, only later to be completely ignored, it matters. It's the same reason FSD coming "next year" for 5 years matters, or having 20k satellites in service by 2021 matters. You say these things, people believe you and prop you up like a god, but when you fall well short it's "not a big deal".

If you recall there was non-stop chatter about how HFT would be using Starlink because the latency was so low, or that it would replace fiber because the latency would be lower. It was all fake. The latency will be 30-40ms nominally for most users. That's great (it's just okay for LEO) for satellite, but let's not pretend it's anywhere near what the goal was.
> The more competent the plan and execution need to be, the less likely it is to be a conspiracy.

These are new jobs so not sure why you're talking about their prior job having better benefits (switching jobs wouldn't be counted here).

Most insane part of this article was the below quote from the bill sponsor:

"Kavanagh said it is important to leave this buffer for police to protect law enforcement from being assaulted by unruly bystanders. He said “there’s no reason” to come closer and predicted tragic outcomes for those who do, saying, “Such an approach is unreasonable, unnecessary, and unsafe, and should be made illegal."

He is just happily excusing cops visiting "tragic outcomes" on people who get closer than 8 feet to cops. The lengths that people will go to too justify police just killing people is insane. How about we don't allow police to just wantonly murder or beat whoever they want?

This same guy is an ex cop and "sponsored legislation that would prohibit oversight boards of police departments unless those boards were two-thirds sworn police officers" After the 2020 election he also said: ""Everybody shouldn’t be voting...Quantity is important, but we have to look at the quality of votes, as well."

Seems like a really great guy that very much deserves to be in power /s

Canada is rife with oligopolies and the government does nothing to make this right. Everything is much more expensive in Canada vs the US because there's simply no competition.
Or just report god damn facts like a wikipedia article. I'm sick of all these opinions being passed off as news these days. If something is an opinion or assessment by the journalist, it should be marked in bold with red flashing letters. Yes facts can be omitted or selectively woven to support a narrative, but that's a different problem, and can be relatively easily detected by cross referencing sources.
I'm afraid that it most certainly is, as Rust is the only language I have ever used generics in, and I had this problem.

Lifetimes suffer from the exact same problem as well, since they're really an exotic form of generic.

That said, I will readily admit that it was a lack of skill on my part. From talking to people in the Rust community though, I gather this isn't an uncommon experience.

I think the "fully self sustaining" would only be embraced by a subset of folks, but it might be a very big draw for them. Though that group doesn't often overlap with those can afford $500k+ rig. Though I think the primary benefit for the group who could afford that would be the built in self-sufficient (or excess!) solar power for daily living. Want to run a microwave, watch TV, and have an AC running while off grid at the lake? No problem and now no annoying generator running.

> That's half the cost of a low end class A already.

Yah I'd think an electric RV would have to target the crowd already spending $300k+ RVs. That'd overlap with the plush lifestyle folks above. Eventually a second hand market would emerge. Perhaps it'd ironically appeal to say remote oil rig workers (ok, maybe just the foremen) and such who sometimes have cash to burn.

Though including a smallish but high efficiency NG/LPG generator could supplement the battery range enough to significantly save on cost / weight. It'd also cover for say really bad solar spells, or after driving all day and boondocking, etc.

A 20 kWh NG/LPG generator ($6-10k) running for 8 hours would yield ~160 kWh. That'd extend the range of a 340 kWh (4x Model S's) battery to match that of a 500 kWh battery. It'd also only require about ~30-35 gallons of NG costing about $30-40 for the entire 8 hours of driving.

> Charging even at normal stations will also be interesting. Will you be able to plug in to multiple chargers at once? If not, even most "fast" chargers are going to take hours.

Ooft, good point! Maybe there will be more of those semi-truck capable Tesla super chargers. Still, it's an RV! Plug in for a few hours and eat lunch, take a nap, etc.
