Here's the quote from the NY Times article [0] your Atlantic article references:

> Nearly half of new condo units in Manhattan that came to market after 2015, or 3,695 of 7,727 apartments, remain unsold, according to a December analysis of both closed sales and contracts by Nancy Packes Data Services, a real estate consultancy and database provider.

So we're talking about 3,695 unsold apartments. There are 3.5 million housing units in New York City. So that's about a tenth of one percent .

The problem here isn't that the statistic is wrong; it's that anybody thinks 7k new units over a 5 year period in a metro area of 20 million people is anything more than a curiosity.

The hallmark of a conspiracy theory is that it offers a sensational explanation -- usually some foreign, outside force -- for a complex problem, absolves the believer of any culpability, and provides an easy, unsympathetic target on which to dump all their rage. "Foreign oligarchs are buying up all the real estate and locking the rest of us out and that's what's wrong with the housing market" is exactly that kind of theory. And 3500 unsold units over 5 years is emphatically not evidence of its veracity.

I have seen this kind of ”flip-flop” behaviour people have with macros a few times. First you go all in, burn yourself, and then go to the other extreme.

Personally, i think macros are a good way to automate some common tasks, but you have to be carefull to keep them short. Also it is a good idea to prune macros periodically to remove what you dont need.

In Cpp, If you find yourself choosing weather to use a macro or a template; Choose the one which is more terse!

Also macros will always inline in debug while templates will generate functions in debug builds, without optimizations. This may be an important performance consideration at times.
What matters here is the definition from those platform on what is considered "Malware". Not our philosophical definition of it.

How would you call a "Malware" as describe above versus a "Malware" DRM / Anti-cheat. There is a clear separation between the two for those platforms.
>You can also use C#’s events, which are strongly typed, but if you need to interface with node events, you should use Godot’s signal system.

Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope, I wasted 2 hours of my life trying to get these signals to work in GD script.

I'm going to try some other open source engines, but trying to jerry-rig an extra language on top of a relatively immature engine isn't a very good idea.

Now I imagine if Microsoft decided to come out of an engine, they could rationalize supporting six or seven languages. But if you're already a small project, what ends up happening is the other language support just isn't as good
It's about ensuring the message arrives. If you are creating a video game, who cares if a message gets lost. If $money is involved, you absolutely have to ensure the message arrives, even if destination server is dead/being updated/being attacked by hackers etc. With Kafka or enterprise service bus, the promise is when the destination server comes back online, it can replay or reprocess the events it missed.
Thank you for your feedback. You're 100% right. The framework is in place, however the implementation is not! We wanted to get Nyxt to a level of feature sophistication before focusing on supporting (not just prototyping) two renderers as it can slow down progress!

With 3.0.0 on the horizon, now is an ideal time. Once again, sorry about the issues you've had, we're doing our best!

It works fine for me if Curl is built with Musl Libc. I can see you're using a very cutting edge glibc. I tried reproducing this on Debian 10. The only calls that got EPERM'd were set_robust_list() and prlimit64(). I recompiled pledge.com by adding those, and Curl is still failing for reasons that aren't obvious. I've encountered issues like this in the past. Me personally I've always solved this by keeping a healthy distance from Glibc by using things like Musl and Cosmo. However I want to see Glibc users benefitting from our work too! So I'd welcome contributions from anyone who can help us do that.

yeah, just get it out there, I've gotten feedback and ideas I would not have thought of myself from users. One I recently added and absolutely love, kinda wish I had thought of it :]

Frontend design and backend custom logic is where low-code / code-gen break down. It's hard to capture all the edge cases or custom things people do. You need a way to plug into or give users some control. Anecdotally, this is what I have found in my own work and having been around low-code/code-gen long enough to know the common complaints / limits.

> Logically if you want an existential threat to Russia to expand up against Russian borders you must want war, no?

No you see, this isn't "NATO expanding up to"...

Countries are sovereign to choose their allies. And countries in eastern europe are asking to join a defense alliance against Russia.

Serious question, have you considered that number 1 no one is forcing eastern europe countries to join this alliance, and number 2 WHY do they want to join it? If you haven't, I'll tell you the answer: What is happening in Ukraine and what happened in Georgia and Chechnia is EXACTLY the reason why these countries want join NATO.

NATO isn't expanding up to Russia's borders. Russia is scaring every country it borders, so they're doing something about it.

Oh look, Finland and Sweden are joining NATO https://www.nato.int/cps/en/natohq/news_197737.htm

Because OF COURSE they do, because otherwise they might be next to be invaded.
That is a good point -- my simplification of the advance provided by JWST is aimed at saying, JWST is kind of the first major telescope with such depth and resolution to complement the deep fields of HST that everyone is so familiar with.

Herschel, while impressive also, was far-IR (if I recall) and much lower resolution, which was good for certain research areas, but less complementary to the HST deep fields for the, well, currently fashionable, recent study of galaxies at high redshift.

If you like I can run pledge against my more complicated app to see if it complains. I did it on a simple app and it seemed to not like how I used memory map (MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_POPULATE). I also do MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS | MAP_POPULATE | MAP_STACK | MAP_GROWSDOWN which might be weird to pledge too
Juries have in the past often not been swayed by fine print, where consumers are involved. It seems to be there mainly to dissuade angry consumers from suing, rather than to win cases based on it.

I would not, personally, be so dissuaded.
None (or at least few) of the folks you’re gonna see on HN are going to be in the income bracket where they’re going to be living in East Harlem. It’s about half an hour from the places where things happen, at least, and might as well be an outer borough for most intents and purposes, given transit times, even if it’s technically within the stated geographical limits of Manhattan.

He’s not trying to pull out because of some great strategy on his part — he’s lied to your face and everyone’s else’s by ridiculously suggesting Twitter lied about the bots and that he’s surprised there are bots when that was the whole message in the first place: buying Twitter to rid it of bots (and free speech or whatever other lie he’s clinged to). He’s mired the whole process in controversy and has shown repeated contempt for the law and his own contractual obligations.

Let’s also not forget the core of the matter: this is a class issue through and through. One of the most wealthy and powerful people on earth — propelled by government subsidies and contracts for his companies Tesla, SpaceX, etc. — is only able to do what he’s doing, and flaunt his contempt only because he is rich and powerful. Very few people would be able to do what he’s done and run away with it: calling somebody a pedophile with no cause, essentially claiming victory over his battle with an ineffectual SEC over his misbehavior, getting into a contract with Twitter with a populist energy and dominant conservative support only to (no surprise) cancel it last second etc.

This is an issue of wealthy people evading the rules everyone else has to play by under threat of violence (lawsuits, prison, etc.)

The amount of effort his cultists put to defending him and arguing that this is some brilliant play is beyond ridiculous.
Hopefully the next prez has a mind for more spending controls and wiser investment than the last few.

You don't need austerity, but you need to make sure there are returns on investment opposed to just throwing money at problems and seeing what sticks. Because unfortunately, money always sticks

Exactly. Notice when someone has a stroke and a portion of their brain dies, and they go numb and can longer contort muscles somewhere in their body? Yeah, it's because a lot of your brain is used for motor control and sensory processing. Like you said, you're just not conscious of it.

There's only 2 options, either you train on the full mediocrity of Github, or you over-train on highly rated projects, effectively just copy/pasting those projects and riding roughshod over any licensing the authors think they have. At least the mediocrity of the suggested code suggests they're trying to do the former.

"NATO is absolutely an existential threat to it"

In Russian paranoid mind, yes.

In practice, former USSR countries or Finland are joining NATO precisely to be protected from some "brotherly help and selfless liberation" dispensed by the Kremlin several decades down the line.

A collective entity like NATO would have to become collectively mad (not just one president, but many of them) to actively attack Russia, which still has a massive stockpile of nuclear weapons, theoretically capable of wiping humans off the Earth several times over.

And what would the casus belli even be? The only thing Russia surely has is plentiful natural resources, and it is cheaper and easier just to buy them than to wage an extremely costly and destructive war. The main mining/production regions are deep inland anyway, thousands of miles away from NATO borders.

Unless you buy their idea that "those scheming Westerners envy us our eternal glory and want to force limp-wristed decadent postmodernism and LGBT on us", there are no reasons to attack Russia.

Open source isn't a competition or a race. This has no practical impact on the traditional Linux desktop stack.

Heck, ChromeOS Flex seems to be shipping Crostini. Similar to Windows, ChromeOS Flex is embedding a traditional Linux desktop stack inside of it's walled garden.

i have walls insulated according to california build code. it's not really possible to add more insulation to them, unless you rip them off and do spray in insulation. insulated attic with radiant barrier and insulated floors.
i just checked with IR camera, most of surfaces in the house are now 22C-24C. After a few days of 40+C walls ill go to 25-26. some walls (south side of house) even higher. There are few little spots where insulation doesn't sit properly - it will be around 28C.
The biggest offender is skylight. Temperature near top of it can get to 60C.

Edit. I think most people simply do not realize what temperature have internal and external walls in houses and how it interacts (or counteracts) AC. If you will go to read greenbuildings/passive houses forums, there are a bunch of discussions about thermal mass of the walls
I did one gig on Upwork and at no point I went through a process like that. The client invited me to their Slack, we discussed some more then they accepted the proposal and I did the work. At no point I had to do a video verification step with Upwork itself.
Does Boardcom own Raspberry Pi? Or are they independent entities? Is there a contractual obligation between the two that prevents Raspberry Pi from using other CPU vendors?

If there is a requirement to stick with Boardroom, can Broadcom start experimenting with RISC-V? It is probably strategy for Broadcom as well...

Not the one I want. I'd like to see better theorem proving, proof repair, refinement and specification synthesis.

It's not generating code that seems to be the difficulty, it's generating the correct code. We need to be able to write better specifications and have our implementations verified to be correct with respect to them. The future I want is one where the specification/proof/code are shipped together.

This type of analytics will make online meetings better in the long term, in the same way fitbit measured steps to quantify are you walking enough.

A recent study (Q122) from Read highlighted (https://www.read.ai/benchmarks) that 28% of meetings have unbalanced participation and that 11% of participants in a meeting are in "ghost mode", no camera, no audio. The more measurement, the more opportunity for individuals and teams to improve.
Viability outside the womb is typically later than consciousness begins, emotions develop, awareness of surroundings starts, and pain is felt. There is certainly an overlap with animal consciousness and our sentiments towards animal cruelty that I rarely see contributed to the context of these conversations.

Point is that the world will never agree on a single answer, and so having a single rule for everyone doesn't make sense either.

> I would think the non-religious argument is that "when the fetus is viable on its own outside the womb"/

and you would be wrong, because within the non-religious group, you get the full spectrum of opinions. You still seem attached to the idea that this is a religious debate, it is not. Complicate that with someone who believes life begins at conception, but still also supports pro-choice, something of a libertarian point of view. I know religious people, who believe life starts at conception, yet more than one who has had an abortion despite this. Life is messy, complicated, and full of hypocrisy.

> Only if you're going into the whole "every act is selfish" kind of thing.

There are selfless acts of kindness, but this isn't one of them. There's no conflict there. He did it to make a video he could monetize on TikTok. It's his job. It's a really simple distinction.

> If you mean having a camera person, that starts to get into the weeds, but it depends on how much planning there was and how it was done.

If he went to that mall and bought flowers and picked a sympathetic-looking subject, with the intention of filming a video of himself doing it to upload to TikTok, it's not random. It's premeditated. I don't mean that in the legal sense, though it probably applies. I mean he thought about it in advance, so it's not "random".

As profit growth declines due to market saturation, drastic measures will be taken to keep profit growth high. Workers and customers will be squeezed for next quarter growth.

You're asking a lot of deep sounding questions, but at the end of the day they don't matter much.

Michelangelo was commissioned to paint the Sistine Chapel. The School of Athens was commissioned by Pope Julius II. You'll find that a massive number of famous art pieces were commissioned, and I don't think you'll find any serious people who think less of them because of it.
Except for companies that are ‘Software Eng is the core business’ anyway, which is super rare, I doubt anyone on the business side cares if we want it. They care if it is cost effective/works.

Which I personally suspect this will end up about as well as WYSIWYG HTML editors/site generators. Which do have a niche.

That would be the ‘makes a lot of cheap crap quickly, but no one uses it for anything serious or at scale’ niche.

Because what comes out the other end/under the hood is reprocessed garbage that only works properly in a very narrow set of circumstances.

I suspect with this market correction however we’ll see a decrease in perceived value for many of these tools, as dev pay is going to be going down (or stay the same despite inflation), and dev availability is going to go up.

Caring may indeed be an advantage by inducing reciprocity in basic human interaction, but it has its limits.

E.g. if you care about preserving biodiversity and you are confronted by unrelenting small and large scale consumerist headwind and its sequelae (instead of concerted consumption reduction), you know that what you care about will never happen. If you care about sophisticated, intelligent discussions about ethical issues and you see the idiotical, ephemeral turd that is the entertainment market/social media, you know it will never happen.

When the thing you care about surpasses psychological everyday heuristics in scope your chances of it happening drop rapidly and the crowd to discuss it with becomes relatively negligible.

It's how we fail to realize the vision of rational human governance in general and I suspect it's a limitation of our species.
This was a nice read that I really wasn't expecting from BBC.

This explains why I, a kid in the US at the time, saw zero marketing for Princess Mononoke when it was released. It was only a few years later that I discovered it at the local Blockbuster. It's impact on my film preferences was immense.
