Very cool.

Just for info: these use the "Letter paper", not A4, as I remember. But most designs should work anyway.

"The most used of this series is the size A4, which is 210 mm × 297 mm (8.27 in × 11.7 in) and thus almost exactly 1⁄16 square metre (0.0625 m2; 96.8752 sq in) in area. For comparison, the letter paper size commonly used in North America (8+1⁄2 in × 11 in, 216 mm × 279 mm) is about 6 mm (0.24 in) wider and 18 mm (0.71 in) shorter than A4. Then, the size of A5 paper is half of A4, as 148 mm × 210 mm (5.8 in × 8.3 in)."

And if social democrat's were willing to cooperate with them. Because communists were only slightly smaller threat then nazi. Hitlers tactic was to talk about communists and Jew and social democrats interchangeably, but they were not. That does not mean the three were the same in practice.

Social democrats were the one pro-democracy party in Germany. That is not compatible with communism. Then there were those pro-monarchy or military dictatorship, then nazi.
The country where I was born changed the definition of car when I was 20, the country where I live now changed the definition of aubergine quite recently.

These things happen. They're bad if your viewpoint is that the old definitions are holy scripture. If your viewpoint is that the definitions serve goals, and we learn more and change the way we approach those goals, then the changes are generally good.

Not sure if this will help but I recently purchased an Apple Watch and the Activity rings and notifications for activity, breathing etc has helped me get myself sorted.
more likely some people just don't know how to write their own email address. or typos.
Could be a study to see how much response such an obviously fraudulent e-mail gets, sent from that same university conducting the study.

I admit that it's a fringe case, but it could be a thing.

Is the goal here to make money? Engineer #25 will get at most .3% equity. At a billion dollar valuation that's 3 million, which sounds like a lot, but if you see that exit after 5 years, that's more like 600k a year. Senior eng at Fang makes 400k+, and is much more attainable than first 50 at big company. You'll have a much better chance climbing FAANG ladder if you want to make a bunch of money
Congrats on that weight loss. One aspect of the walking as a heavier individual is the stress on the legs/ankles/feet -- I found this out the hard way once I tried getting into jogging/running and ended up giving myself plantar fasciitis (tldr foot issue) a year ago. Still recovering. I kinda wish I biked for cardio instead of doing the walks, but it's not the end of the world.
This cannot be upvoted enough. You won't succeed if you are doing things wrong or worse doing the wrong thing. I think you're focusing on the wrong thing by building a 'circle' or chasing AI startups without specific product or service to solve some real world pain points while also lacking the skills .
I’ve gotten invitations for a GP system, among countless signups for games as well as an account approval for a car. I’ve gotten a hold of one person who was ordering curtains with my email address, they were nice, I got hold of another person who was repairing their phone and they got angry. It’s really quite annoying, and half of the services aren’t even confirming the address, they just put whatever you fill in on the account and start sending ‘informational’ spam.
Make the number random and exclude numbers under 1000, numbers with special meanings (1337, etc).
Luck. Luck. And oh yeah also Luck.

I'm the first employee at a well funded, fast growing company. I was an entrepreneur myself so I saw a lot of startups. The most successful of the lot is one whose early days were so pathetic. Their initial idea was uninspiring. Their CEO was always tired and deflated. He took a bad investment and was pretty bummed by that.

> Seditious conspiracy is another story, and the American right is crossing into that territory recently.

Referring to a tiny minority of people generally as “the American right” is just a bunch of disingenuous bullshit designed to hint that it’s a problem with a whole ideology.

This is no different than equivocating the violence of environmental terrorists or the tiny slice of BLM violence with “the American left”.
There was a infamous forgotten year, were europes "on party line" communists (also in england) cheered on germany, because that was a ally of moscow then.

I think people who want "nicer Java" now go to Kotlin.
This stuff seems actually quite difficult to me. For example on one silly programming contest problem[0] there's a cluster of users from about 6th place to about 21st place who are basically reading memory sequentially as fast as they can using some simple loop that does 2 or more 32-byte loads into vector registers and then does some trivial calculations that can be done concurrently with the next loads (this is maybe 20 instructions if you choose to do a lot of loads per iteration, way fewer than that if you do just 1 or 2). There is also a small group of users who are going significantly faster! The top solution seems to be reading RAM 20% faster than a loop whose instructions look fine to me.

On the note of PDF statements, I found that Okular on Linux was able to copy the table format that KBC Ireland use in their PDFs. That at least let me paste into a spreadsheet, massage the columns slightly, and then save as CSV for import into KMyMoney.
For me one lesson was that when we fail to properly use a thing we should blame that thing for its bad design instead of ourselves.

Another was that obviousness of a feature is how that thing will be used. You don't want people placing stuff on top of walls, don't make them flat.
I read that in the article quoting from the trade association person. My experience is big plants can run at 100% for a long time, if during past downtime the PM was completed and not just penciled-in. At this scale, the PM is recorded and signed. I guess most or all of the plants should do okay. Anyway, too late for worry to be useful!
Regret reading. To embrace low quality because of some nostalgic link to the past or whatever, is not a good case. It's a case for sticking with good coffee.

Oxygen in excess is toxic. The implications of this science-fact has been mostly forgotten by Medicine, but is commonly known by SCUBA divers (whose enemy is Nitrogen).

Just watched my mom's 98 year old friend get finished off with nasal oxygen (~week ago). Once she'd been on it for a day couldn't go without it. If the goal was to extend her life, they would have incorporated the antidote to oxygen toxicity.

Fascinating article. It is interesting to see how much room there (still) is for applying basic, obvious, common-sense approaches. And of course the best part is seeing the incredible impact he's had on literally thousands of lives as a result.

I did find the final bit sadly ironic. The entire point of Frazer's approach is that he looked at what the best teams were doing, came up with hypotheses about weaknesses in the approach, and experimented/iterated from there. Fittingly, now that the politicians are paying attention, their immediate instinct is to just blindly ape the structure that he's built -- rather than looking to instill the same mindset in other teachers.

I suppose it's the circle of life in large, bureaucratic organizations. A decade (or a century) from now, another Frazer will come along and apply the same mindset to this structure -- and all the bureaucrats will be suitably impressed again.

I prefer the latter by a big margin. But I also drive quite fast and generally sweat easily. The issue with being sweaty while it is cold outside is that you could potentially freeze even more once you are not moving anymore unless you are wearing really good clothes.

I use a M1 pro 13" ans it’s more than good enough. Some coworkers have the 14" but it’s a lot more chubby and I’m not sure the performance gain is worth the size increase unless you do more GPU work (but you would want a better GPU anyway).

I’m not using flutter but react development is very smooth on the M1, especially when you use vite.

But you absolutely need at least 16GB of ram is you use a VM or two.
Hi, actually there is a way to verify if ROM you have installed or not is GOS. There's attestation.app which let's you remotely verify your installation.
Unfortunately that's true. It doesn't happen right away, but changes in the body are noticeable after a while.

On the other hand, there are now all kinds of therapies aimed at post-covid recovery. It's not all that bad. You need to get over it even though it's going to take a long time.
Huh, TIL. I guess compilers have gotten smarter since I last looked into this a decade or so ago. :)
> Baking the difference between primitives and objects into the language itself

This is not unique to Java and this difference is present even in a modern language like Rust. Primitives are copied by value, objects are copied by reference. If you want copy by value use Java records: https://www.baeldung.com/java-record-keyword

> Baking in choices about object representations : Like the fact that objects are always passed by reference, or that they are always allocated on the heap

Because the JVM does escape analysis and performs automatic stack allocation. The JVM wants to retain control here.

> Generics

Type erased generics were a deliberate design decision implemented for backward compatibility. .net had to introduce brand new collections while java programs could continue to work. To be honest, I felt this was stupid too. A clean break would have been better.

> Overall verbosity

Deliberate design decision. Though frankly, I personally prefer extends and implements. This is just done once at class declaration and allows for easy and no-nonsense grepping of sources from the CLI.

> Why aren't any constructors generated

Satisfied by records now which are meant as the placement for POJO's. Classes should now be used for services - for which you _don't_ want generated constructors.

> Horrible OOP excesses

Looks like you are ~10 years out of date on Java tech and community. Perhaps look at some of the modern java libraries ? Look at GraalVM ?

I prefer coding in Modern Java over Kotlin. Kotlin readability is poor.

Instead of waiting for Skyrim (or other Beth titles) to be released for macOS, why not lend a hand to the OpenMW? Work is already underway in supporting later versions of NIF, so you can already use some Skyrim assets in OpenMW, support for reading ESM4 was recently introduced. We should have basic Skyrim "walking simulator" in a few releases.

Here is a PoC of Skyrim running in OpenMW, don't mind the Morrwind HUD for now, that will be dehardcoded. :)

> This is shorter than the equivalent in an applicative language, because we have to name the input argument, that is only used once.

It's also wrong in that the predicate (4 >) is equivalent to (\x -> 4 > x) and thus tests for numbers being less than 4.

It's strange to argue that concatenation is structurally simpler than application, when you then need to add a quoting operator to add back the needed structure, while introducing a subtle distinction between evaluated and unevaluated code.
more precisely a CNAME must be the only record type for a given label as it would be otherwise ambiguous to revolvers. that doesn't hold true for DNSSEC secured zones where the records for signatures are to be allowed, but also arent creating any ambiguity on how to resolve queries. the apex must have NS and SOA records for a minimum to work so that rules out any CNAME in addition to that. an apex without any other record but SOA and NS would work fine though. so saying it needs to be an A record implies the wrong thing.
There is no mention of “microblog” on the page. If you’re implying “a blog platform for hackers” means ‘hackers’ don’t need proper tools for providing a semantic blogging, then ‘hackers’ need to get better at communication because these sorts of features matter for accessibility and experience.
For many reasons, it's not a great general purpose build system. It solves Google's problem fine, but fails to cater to any other use case.

Looks like a very personal list. I would not advice anyone using this as part of anything. Rohith[1] is in India and most of the spam domains (did a quick split) in the list are similar sounding names of a lot of Indian companies/Startups. Not that the companies do not spam (they do) but emails/domain registration has become so easy that there are tiny setups/operations in every nook and corner of the streets/chawls/shanties of India trying to spam people.

Austrian here. Completely agree that Austrian coffee is mostly terrible (and expensive!). I still like going to the traditional coffee houses, but it's certainly not for the coffee.

No idea about the credentials of that redditor...

I'd love to have someone pick apart figure 1 and the data it claims to be based off:

https://deliverypdf.ssrn.com/delivery.php?ID=342110087101018...

The paper doesn't say that we've lost 90% of all phytoplancton BTW, it says that we're on track to have lost as much by 2045. the redditor also says that plankton level is rising in the arctic ocean, which isn't entirely surprising given that these very cold waters are now getting warmer. A massive drop everywhere else would still be catastrophic.

The issue might be that you live in your own body constantly, so you see that there isn't much difference day to day. Someone who only sees you, say, once a month or a few times a year hasn't seen all of that, so the change is much more drastic to them.
The author should be writing for The Economist. "I’ve always been a little skeptical of letting creators have so much control".. so who exactly should have control? Executives?

"The idea of selling out lost its negative connotation." <- No, people just acquiesced to the belief that worth comes from being valued in its market.

Please correct me, isn't biomass (wood, dung, and charcoal) one of the most common ways of cooking in many rural parts of the world? I wasn't aware of its use for energy like electricity for power grids. Is it even efficient and viable?
Seems a slightly strong response for something that doesn't suggest an entitlement attitude, merely a preference.

To me, it seems a reasonable preference: going for cross-platform supported tools is sensible for those without the luxury of working on just one platform and barring cases where apps are built on a platform specific library it's typically not that hard to find such apps.
Amazing response... I can't tell if this is sarcasm too...
What posture does ‘sitting’ entail? I read somewhere the least pressure on your spine is when your torso/legs are at 135°.
I can confirm this from personal experience.

I spent the entire pandemic, i.e. almost two years, working from home from a chaiselongue that a friend of mine produces [1].

I only ever used it for reading books or watching movies via my projector before that.

It turned out it is perfect for doing computer work. The angle of legs to torso is between 130–140° on this piece of furniture.

I never had any fatigue in my spine, pressure points on my body or pain from tensed muscles anywhere.

Fair point, and 100% on the nose. The times when this comes in handy is when you have to PR on a project you don’t know a lot about (which could be argued is a process problem, but I am getting way off trail now).

However, with your excellent point in mind, I am even more confused on what a “culture of rigorous code reviews” is.
