In most cases, if you grow up eating something, it's normal. If you don't, it's unusual. Sometimes people think things are disgusting when they really mean they're not used to them. I think that explains about 95% of it.
1995 India - Had a paid internship (Rs 2500 per month or ~ USD 80 back then) with a small software company that worked on FoxPro + dBase. A very diverse team (gender ratio), the highly enthusiastic bunch created software for non-banking financial companies.
A thick documentation book occupied most of the space in the large, laminated box that such development software came in. Along with half a dozen floppy disks where we hoped that no disk would have a bad sector.
Requirements were constantly over the phone from clients and shipping software meant taking two sets of floppy disks of different brands (backup!), in-person, to the city where the client was.
CRTs needed a warm-up time and we had a small diesel generator (hand cranked) to power up the x86 computers once the main power line crashed (which was frequent).
No internet searches, no help other than that thick paper manual or waiting around for hours for a senior engineer to get free to help you out.

Not too mention C#, Python and for some, Javascript.
Post Scriptum: one way to prove this is that we could use https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=43XaZEn2aLc as a base.

How to prove.

Assume that we add struct inheritance to Rust (it looks similar to JS) - call it RustInh.

Does adding inheritance to Rust increase expressive power? If yes, then right now Rust can't express OOP concept as inheritance.
I.e. is there a C[RustInh] = C[Rust].

And way to prove it is to look at Deref anti-patterns https://github.com/rust-unofficial/patterns/blob/main/anti_p...

Of my favorite comics, Calvin and Hobbes is the one I can no longer read. I don't know why. Being named Calvin growing up I had every anthology and print collection. I feel bad for my dad who had some first editions I absolutely trashed reading over and over.

You might also enjoy, Bloom County, Pearls Before Swine and Zits. I really enjoy those as well. Zits has a similar dynamic if Calvin was a moody teenager. Bloom County is chock full of 80's politics (Actually, Ivana and Donald a frequent characters), and Pearls Before Swine is just fun and witty.

A movie - Second Hand Lions, had the main character become a comic book writer. "Berkley Breathed" the cartoonist known from Bloom County did all of the comics in the movie and it's so heart warming. I recommend that as a great film to any family movie night.

I also love the Far Side, single pane comics are some of my favorite, and everyone should pick up a Far Side anthology if only to see a Bovine version of American Gothic

> It always amuses me that when I tell this story, it's often met with disgust - even by meat-eaters! "But, how could you eat horse! They're so nice!". Yeah... you eat beef, have you ever met a cow up close? They're also lovely creatures! I see this as double-standards - similar to how most meat-eaters also seem so disgusted by the idea of eating dogs in certain parts of Asia.

Doesn't this more indicate that many people deep-down think that eating animals is wrong and have these thoughts overridden by cultural preferences and tribalism, and that instead of resolving the above double-standard by embracing eating every kind of animal they could resolve it by not eating eat any? Where do you draw the line? You can find places and times in history where people ate dolphin, whales, cat, gorilla, and elephants too I think.

A millionaire doesn't mean what it used to mean, and the number of millionaires is actually surprisingly low in the US.

In a Western country with mandatory pensions (such as Finland), a mid-income couple should have effective net worth over $1 million (excluding primary home) by the time they retire. They are just not counted as millionaires, because they have pensions instead of retirement savings. Had they been able to save for retirement instead of making pension contributions (which are mostly used to fund current pensions), their net worth would be twice as high.

A recent middle class retiree should be a millionaire. If most of them are not, there is probably something structural that prevents people from saving as much as they should.
Unions can be corrupted or do mistakes, and sometimes unions are not powerful enough in the face of global market shifts.

That doesn't mean unions are bad or useless. It would be like saying that since democratic governments can be corrupted, we should do without democracy.

Yeah, I get it. Although in React's case the whole vDOM diffing thing is self-inflicted - it is only necessary because they insist on the UI being a "pure" function of state. Turns out that the only way to do this with an imperative API is some kind of tree diffing, so that you don't recreate expensive stuff from zero each frame.

- Start in a niche where you can lean on your own personal connections to kickstart the demand/supply side. Once you've established yourself as the best platform in that niche, go broader.

- Outsource/"borrow" supply from other people until you can bootstrap the demand side (eg: scrape/syndicate other marketplaces; subcontract services)

- Heavily incent the supply side of the marketplace (eg: offer a guaranteed base pay to subcontractors regardless of demand)

- Bootstrap the supply side yourself (eg: for a forum, use sockpuppet accounts to create the appearance of of a thriving community)

It's hard!
I concur.

I run my businesses with this in mind, my user's privacy is at the utmost importance to me, and the way I approach managing my business is to gain the good will of my customers first and provide a quality product. And my business is wildly successful.

But I'm under no illusions to the reality of the situation, and I've been around HN long enough to know that the hypocrisy here can be deafening sometimes with regards to social media. The downvotes on my post prove it.

Edit: just to bolster my point, the vast majority of ANY app developer around here on HN will have been to integrate every ad supported SDK in their apps, which literally invades the privacy of those users probably worse than Facebook does, all for a little bump in revenue.

> Why is it wise to have a negative view of opportunities that present themselves?

Recognizing that luck plays a role in the outcome of opportunity isn't a negative view, only an acknowledgment of what can't be controlled alongside what can, much like the one that you made tacitly when you used the term "risk."

> It still works better than any other system.

If we're speaking in general terms about market democracies, I sure know I like living in one, and yes, people living in most of those (including the US) could stand to appreciate how some things are actually working relatively especially by historical standards.

On the other hand if we're speaking in specific terms about countries, there are others which get notably better metrics than the US on things like the economic freedom index, high net worth individuals per capita, life expectancy per health care dollar spent, or bankruptcies per capita, which indicates some pause about how strictly to regard "better than any other system" and further room for optimization that clearly has substantial positive impacts on quality & length of life elsewhere.

There seems to be a disagreement about what an expression is.

I have the impression that you think that an expression is a way to compute a value, while I would posit that an expressions are a method of combining values.

Not really an expression:

a0 = 1;
a1 = f(2);
if (a0 < a1){
a2 = getInput();
} else {
a2 = 3;
}
result = a0 + a1 + a2;

More of an expression:

result = 1 + f(2) + (a0 < a1 ? getInput() : 3);

It’s hard to imagine a more targeted control than the benchmark rate, which has a direct impact only on people who manage money for a living and people who hold adjustable rate mortgages. It just manifests as a blunt hammer because the economy is interrelated, and I’d argue that any control big enough to make a difference will encounter this.
There is a very, very small difference between placing a slight break in the middle of the acronym as J-COF or as JC-OF, because there's a major unwritten vowel sound after J in any case.
When comparing local production prices between different countries it is important to keep local wages in mind. The ISP employees in Kazakhstan are not getting paid US salaries.

To do some quick math, let's take the median monthly salaries of both Kazakhstan and USA, 364,000 KZT ($755) and 3,500 USD per month respectively.

That means that the $10/month 500Mbps symmetrical fiber is about 1.32% of median monthly wage in Kazakhstan. For the US, 1.32% of 3,500 USD is about $46/month.

Looking at the AT&T website, they offer 500Mbps symmetrical fiber for $65/month + taxes. So yes, the US internet is more expensive by about 50%.

However one should still ask - well, maybe AT&T provides better service? I don't know whether AT&T is a better provider than your Kazakhstan ISP, but some points to consider are:

- Can you have a connection uptime of 6 months without interruptions and it's just business as usual and not an achievement? (In Estonia I have router & connection uptime measured in years. When I lived in the US, my Xfinity connection dropped for a few minutes every week.)

- Does the ISP have excellent global peering? Poor peering can result in much higher latencies to international destinations, and also much lower bandwidth. (In Estonia I know all the budget ISPs buy (as opposed to build) their international traffic and oversell it, which means connections across oceans are at quarter of the advertised speeds at peak hours.)

- Is the last mile cabling cost eaten by the ISP, or will they demand you to pay for its building?
Odessa clashes was Russian and pro-Russian gangs attacking an unarmed Ukrainian football fan march with firearms.

They then retreated to the House of Unions where pro-Russian opposition was based. Basically taking them as hostages.

The house was set on fire and multiple people died a horrific death.

While immensely tragic, don’t “both sides” this and spread Russian propaganda. The skirmishes were all captured on long live streams.

Afterwards Russian TV used it to further spread anti-Ukrainian hatred.
Sounds like the name/domain is a bit misaligned from what the actual purpose is.

Amazon has significantly increased wages. They were at the forefront of the $15 wage, more than double the federal minimum wage. I think at the time Walmart was at $10 or $11.

I live in very liberal SF but outside of my bubble, I hear people complain that it’s not possible to hire Nannies/housecleaners/employees anymore when Amazon and Starbucks pay $18/hr. Seems like the answer is easy: pay them more or make the job more desirable.

Amazon working conditions are challenging, and they have been super anti-union. But they’ve also done more to increase wages in the US than anyone in Washington in the past 15 years, arguably second biggest in past 40 [1].

Nit picky but isn't this action actually illegal in some jurisdictions ?

That is not the idea currently being pushed.

The zero trust idea is 'just because they are on the right subnet doesn't mean you can trust them'. So you add things like healthyness checks (is this device up to date), anomaly detection, and use those to dynamically determine how much authentication challenge you give a user.

For this to work, the key is really good and easy single sign on with second factor also made easy. That way you can do more trusted authentication (a SSO token backed by Microsoft login is harder to phish than just a password. More importantly, it really lowers the authentication burden on your users.

If you really want to level up your career you should learn how to answer this yourself. Your question is very unspecific so without knowing your requirements like build speed or project size there's no way to give a real answer.

In short, yes it's fast enough. And no I've not even used it. Only M1.
Good questions. I don't mind contributions if they don't mind the model being used. I guess I would be looking to prevent profit making forks of the code base.

I guess I like the idea of open source projects still being able to use it for free and possibly non-profits (though that might complicate things) so I don't mind those users having a near-open-source experience and source availability seems to be close to that.

Perhaps I should have more faith in the area and try to productise it but I guess I don't have the confidence in that. Though I guess that raises questions about the whole venture. Still, I think the kind of "this is available, just not to million dollar companies" isn't a crazy middle ground to aim for.

I don't think that LGPL would be a good fit for preventing use inside companies though I guess technically it might work. Though the companies are shipping the generated docs and not the project code specifically so I'm not sure that LGPL would be the way forward.

Thank you for taking the time to respond.
Also NL. I feel that the opinions have shifted last couple of decades. Anectdotal maybe, when I was younger eating horse meat wasn't something one thought about much. My mother used to go into town especially for buying horse steak, because "they are way better than cow beef steak". Recently I asked her if she still buys it. "Horse meat? No!". She forgot about how we always ate it.

Microsoft are damned if they do and damned if they don't. One could just as well criticize C++/CX for being a proprietary language extension that only works with their proprietary compiler, and for not following C++'s zero overhead principle. A major selling point of C++/WinRT is that it's just standard C++. And like I've said before, thanks to modern C++, C++/WinRT is far better than libraries like ATL that were available for VC++ 6.0.

By developing and using C++/WinRT, the Windows developers are prioritizing what's best for their systems programming work, as they should. Convenient tooling for rapid application development is the job of IDE developers, like the Visual Studio team. I think one of the mistakes of Windows 8 and Windows 10 was that the Windows team tried to directly provide conveniences for high-level application developers, built into the platform. I'm glad they've backed away from that. I know VS already has some tooling for C++/WinRT. Maybe they just need to do more work on that. Personally (as someone who no longer works in the Windows org, or at Microsoft at all), I'm glad I can use C++/WinRT, which is just standard C++, with any build system I want, and presumably even with clang rather than VC.

I am very bad at doing this to others IRL and online. But my team has been fully remote for the last few years, so I’ve made a conscious effort to stop myself from doing this, acknowledging and apologizing when I do, and specifically calling out the person I did it to and ask, “you were trying to say something, did you still want to share?”

We have a few women on our team, some in developer roles. I’d like to think I’m doing a decent job, but I’d have to ask them. I don’t even know how to get their honest feedback without being intimidating. I hope it’s as easy as “tell me honestly, how do you feel about your inclusion within the team? Anything I or the team can do better?”
It can be, more than other languages, but doesn’t “have” to be. Complex code is a smell.
This simply doesn’t work on a large, shared codebase. Locking dependency versions is a must. You can’t just roll the dice that no breaking changes have been introduced by dependencies.

I just read a German interview with two technical professors about energy security in Germany.

They warned that massive investments into windmills and solar MUST be accompanied by massive investments into the grid, and that Germany fails spectacularly in the latter, especially because of onerous regulation and incessant NIMBYism. Namely, a lot of power from renewables is being produced in northern Germany and the shallow seas around it, where the country is only sparsely inhabited, and it is almost impossible to get this power in adequate volumes to the consumers in the highly developed and power-hungry regions in the south - Bavaria, Baden-Württemberg.

One of them also stated that Germany managed to build only about a fifth of the necessary network of new power lines in the last decade.

Greetings from Europe. It is not really any better here. Logistics is hard. Logistics in electricity doubly so.
Right. From an end user perspective, zero trust manifests as ‘single sign-on’. Which is easy enough to grasp.
i think your mixing up terms like class and culture. not all low class people have the same type of behavior.

i don't think you understand what your talking about now. another post said the same thing. trashy is undesirable behavior from people. not acting trashy doesn't move you between classes. You just stop fitting the description of trashy.
Amazon is going to do that regardless.
I’m not a vegan but I had a few cows growing up that basically became like pets. They would come up to me just to spend time and receive physical affection, they knew my voice, etc. I’m not sure if this reason for not eating dogs stands up to scrutiny for me.

> one of the takeaways in the article was a finding that some people needed to increase salt consumption in this diet

They need to increase salt because they were losing salt thus water, it's what happens when you cut all processed food. Even the added salt is still much lower than what you'd ingest in a normal SAD diet.

On a ketogenic diet (which is more extreme that this, but to prove my point) the best solution not to feel crap the first few weeks is putting a little salt in your water. Whenever you feel a little weak, have a little salt. Works fantastically, then about a month in your body learns to retain the smaller amount of sodium better, so you don't pee as much nor need to supplement any salt.
