Soviet Union was a state where most people didn’t have access to goods, fresh food, fine education, sturdy clothes or footwear.

Nomenclature was a very small class of people with privileged exclusive access.

It’s either families with relatively short ties to Kremlin: people with high positions, spies, diplomats, nuclear scientists, state journalists, pro-government writers.

Or people like heads of grocery chains, import shops who controlled access to goods and clothes.

People like these could put their children at most successful universities without exams, buy them Western cars and spoil with caviar while most people stood at the queues for hours to get sour milk or bones for soup.
I was going to post that folklore framework. I love initiatives to formally catalogue and index everyday, organic, non-quantitative things like stories. Does anyone know of similar efforts in any other fields?
The qualities varies for sure.

The appsmith helm chart works out of the box, which is better than many.

My main issue is to put everything in the same stateful pod using supervisord. It doesn’t scale, I don’t want to use supervisord inside a kubernetes pod, it’s huge and slow to get ready. The helm chart does also weird things such as having a namespace définition or an autoupdate by default.
I don't know the case at all, but the document seems to present a compelling point of view.
I implore you: spend a few days at your local public library offering basic tech support. There's a reason why you see arguments for doing away with the traditional filesystem -- there's a large cohort of users for whom it's genuinely difficult to use.
My first thought here is that the composition of todo waves allows the opportunity for a human to become arbitrarily busy on a given day when the waves positively interfere. Thankfully many of these items phase lock to the circadian rhythm or enjoy some scheduling flexibility.

This could be true for some people, but not for everyone, which is where this research will lead.

With all the love of science here why does no one think genetics matters when it comes to diet and health?
Well said, my next version will be focused on a niche I actually need instead of general search. Still, I haven't finished studying the CS books + 47 algorithms I'll need to actually implement it.
I had a very similar experience; thought it was an interesting language but I got discouraged around the time the small stuff I was working on required lifetimes, or had weird reference errors (or at least, what I thought was weird at the time).

When I tried again recently I started with the Too Many Linked Lists, which I felt did a better job of explaining both lifetimes and how the compiler views <type>, &<type>, and &ref <type> as completely different types, and that helped a ton.

Combine that with spending more time understanding how Rust handles object composition (compared to "traditional" OOP), the massive compiler improvements W/R/T lifetime elision and auto-derefing within the past several years, and realizing just how damn helpful the compiler and documentation is compared to other languages (again, thanks to TMLL for explicitly showing this), and it's been a downright pleasure to use this time around.
> Yeah, in DOS & Windows, each drive has its own working directory.

On Windows, no, it doesn't, it's an illusion maintained by CMD using environment variables, for compatibility with DOS. Quoting Raymond Chen (https://devblogs.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/20100506-00/?p=14...):

"Win32 does not have the concept of a separate current directory for each drive, but the command processor wanted to preserve the old MS-DOS behavior because people were accustomed to it (and batch files relied upon it). The solution was to store this “per-drive current directory” in the environment, using a weird-o environment variable name so it wouldn’t conflict with normal environment variables."
This question reminded me of a show that I used to love watching, Connections with James Burke. I'm sure there are aspects that it is missing but it's a very well told story of what needed to come together for the invention of the steam engine.

This is why you don't understand...the "customer" for pensions/fund managers is not the end-user, it is financial intermediaries (in most countries anyway, the level of disintermediation varies, some do market themselves to individuals i.e. Vanguard but most do not, the commission does not go to the customer).

All of the technology to do away with this exists now and existed before blockchain. But most of these companies haven't implemented because they aren't native tech companies (I don't think people understand on here, these places don't have any software engineers, they hire consultants, their idea of a "tech guy" is the guy who sorts out the Microsoft licences) and the cost saving is only realised if everyone adopts it.

With blockchain, it allows you to decentralise a whole set of computational logic that was previously performed by hand, and you change how people interact with that.

It all seems totally puzzling...because most people assume that these businesses are already using technology, when they aren't. Blockchain incentivizes business transformation across the supply chain, which allows you to remove cost from almost every level.

The question of actual customer support is not going away, it will never go away. That is what financial advisers are for, they are actual customer support.

Classic HN though, a bunch of people who don't work in an industry pontificating about how that industry works...genius.

I imagine the lesson that will be learned from success or failure of this project going to be used for a long time for many other mega city constructions. This is basically a new architecture and design for an urban area differing from any existing ones.
There is nothing preventing anyone from using these protocols, if US lefties feel excluded because other opinions exist on the same front-end, they can make their own frontend and ban aynone they want, the good thing is that the protol itself isn't censorious.

I have a problem with federated platforms where you just get scalled down youtubes where every local sheriff gets to terrorize the people under his domain with his whims and if youtube's are driven by ad sales these are perhaps even worse because they're just ego driven.

Federative approach is terrible, it combines the downsides of decentralized and centralized solutions, it's far from neturality or increasing inclusion or escaping censorship.

Thank you for reading my blog.
Common symptoms of thyroid disorders include obesity and/or excessive thinness (not anorexia per-se, but it can look like it), along with a cornocopia of other issues.

Certain mental disorders (depression and anxiety) also highly correlate with obesity and/or underweight.

A common treatment for ADHD (stimulants) often gets folks to a healthy weight that previously struggled on one side or the other.

It’s a complex problem, with a lot of ever changing variables we have little insight into.

Anecdotally, I know of several boomers that had serious thyroid issues likely tied to exposure to the Santa Susana Field Lab and Nevada nuclear testing. They were consuming milk and other products from areas contaminated by them at the right times.

All the various plastics we’ve all been exposed to and other various chemicals are also likely doing something too.

But also, the whole country has gotten dramatically more sedentary and media consumption focused, and the media keeps getting more and more anxiety inducing and alienating. As a country, we all need to ‘get out and touch some grass’ more too.
You're free to create your own project with your own name and have it compete on the free market for dominance.
I don't get this criticism at all. Sure, it could be simpler, but it's A. Not your project, so who are you to say how to name it and B. Rust developers clearly understand what they're used for considering they're popular enough to be brought up here.

And unless you're actively developing in Rust, why would some other people's choice of naming their projects in a language and tool chain you don't ever plan on using be such a big deal?

You've avoided saying it directly, but the oblique claim in your post is that (1) the CIA is the New Yorker's source for the claims in the article, and (2) the New Yorker acceeded to an intentional character assassination.

Caloric intake is a measure of the energy we receive from food accurately, i believe they are referring more-so to an idea in a recent popular HN post, potatoes,[1] and which foods are more filling. It could be that there is error in what the less-eating participants happen to eat more-filling food, but not that the entire hypothesis would be incorrect.

Agreed, I liked the graphics especially.

The concept of waves is really nice. It supplant my previous visualization of these kind of tasks, which was more "spiky".
Perhaps one that's a bit off the beaten path, but I've developed a number of games using Multimedia Fusion (now known as Clickteam Fusion). It's a "no-code" system in the sense that you do all programming using a unique checkbox system which has interesting semantics regarding selectors/which objects that certain events interact with. [0]

It's super useful for developing for things like game jams, where you have a super tight time limit, but you definitely have to work within the constraints of the system. If you try to push the boundary too much on what's "expected" it becomes painful very quickly. Additionally, porting the code to other platforms is difficult since you're at the whim of Clickteam to implement it, and historically their "exporters" have been buggy, leading to a cottage industry springing up around the tool to create alternative runtimes for better performance/portability. [1]

From what I'm reading from the other comments, this experience isn't just unique to games, and seems like it applies to other low-code business application tools as well.

Totally agree with your point and find it really annoying. The original journal entry is titled: 'Higher than predicted resting energy expenditure and lower physical activity in healthy underweight Chinese adults.' and makes no such 'less hungry' claim. That appears to have been introduced from the 'cell press' journal/article promoting organization.
Yes I tried all those 'minimize rust' approaches including the above one.

they worked fine if you're statically link to its stdlib.

but if you have a few complex rust binaries, static link for each of them is not going to help on the overall combined size.

I did use a released library and build everything for release(per those minimize projects), I can easily cut a small program from 3M to 290KB but again, it is either static link, or you need a 6MB dynamic library to go with it.

the key question is, what's the smallest size for Rust shared library? so far my finding is around 6MB(after strip, otherwise it's about 11~12MB)
> The major advantage of a language that isn't Turing complete is not having the major risk inherent to Turing complete languages: asking if any non-trivial program will produce any given result or behavior is undecidable[1].

It's not obvious to me that I should care about this property in a configuration language. For a given configuration use case, I probably have a good idea about the extreme upper-bound for a correct program--say, 5s. If the program runs for 30s, the supervisor kills it.

> The Halting Problem is just a simple example of program behavior. The undecidability extends to any other behavior. Asking if a given program will behave maliciously is still undecidable even if we only consider the set of programs that do halt in a reasonable amount of time.

What's a malicious action in a configuration use case that a Turing complete program could muster but not a non-Turing-complete program?

The problem is, considering everything regardless of intention / author would mean wasting a lot of time and energy.

In other words, someone is always going to jump up and down for your attention, willing to spew bs (sometimes mixed with fact), to slow you down and delay you. Being able to ignore it and focus on real issues is important.

I do peer review, and know colleagues that do as well. I'd say the median number of articles reviewed per person in a given year is 10. I don't claim to represent most reviewers, but I also don't think a presumption that reviewers primarily only have time to half-ass it is fair either.
Indeed, Python would be a good language to implement this in terms of ease of development, but it's very difficult to distribute a standalone binary (which I wanted to do). The built-in curses support of Python is also not cross-platform I think.

I just did a quick search on impact of biochar on corn yield and the research seems mixed, at best. It seems to have the most impact on poor soil, but little impact on yield in good soil (e.g., the corn belt). A public benefit may be reduction of nitrate leaching—-so applied at scale that could help the Gulf. Water retention can be improved, too; it’d be interesting to see whether there’s impact on yield in drought years.
Did you read the full study?

You’re welcome. :)

I think it’s okay to add a link but maybe make it secondary to a statement about you and your public reputation, that you stand by your app, etc.

It would probably be worth it to get whatever certifications are necessary so the app can be signed by apple, or even distributed via the App Store.

Despite the clucking, I do think the App Store offers the potential of increased screening for malware. Given the choice I generally install small apps from there to get that update mechanism alone.
I have a niece that literally did not know how to turn her Thinkpad off. The selected power profile puts the PC to sleep when the power button is pressed and closing the lid is set to do nothing.

She's part of Gen-Z and I can understand why she doesn't know any better. She spends the majority of her time on phones and tablets, and this is her first genuine PC that she's spent an appreciable amount of time on. I suppose I'm lucky that computers were not easy to use when I was growing up and that I necessarily had to become comfortable using the command-line and toying with the nuts and bolts of how the operating system does things.

The 90s DOS games had great taste. They were severely limited by tech and they still managed to make colour and art style choices that fit together beautifully. Heart Of China had some iconic images that still stick with me. Prince of Persia one had great animations for the time it came out.

Every pixel in Scorch's tank pixel art feels so well placed, combined with the quips it's like they all had their own character. The tank selection screen could have had an empty landscape picture behind it, like the main menu, but Whicken chose instead a scrolling background that gave a great sense of movement and amped you up for the coming PC Speaker squealing carnage. Of course you get the easy benefit of the whole design being internally consistent because it's made by one guy, which makes it feel like a cohesive whole.
pip-tools is alright but it doesn't support cross-platform (or python version) lockfiles.

I had the same reaction. The only charitable idea I could come up with is that the author believes using tools with a lot of attention sets them up to receive more support from the community.
