A larger vehicle full of passengers is often more efficient than a smaller one. Are we going to regulate minimum passengers per vehicle size? I'm not sure this proposal solves the intended problem in a meaningful way.

I'd rather see hefty taxes on fuel. This might yield better incentives toward urbanization, alternative transportation, and mass-transportation infrastructure.
> The root cause behind this is childlessness.

That is the current narrative being pushed by conservatives. All our problems are due to selfish individuals not having children. I suppose we can blame inflation too on all those child less dual income families as well? I mean if they had less money they wouldn't be able to buy up all the things and prices would be lower for everyone right?
(one of the Carbon leads)

Success for the Carbon Language requires it to successfully be an independent and community driven project. We may not succeed (this really is an experiment), but we're working hard to engage broadly and early in large part because of this being such an important goal and priority for us.

Projects like this have to start somewhere, but can grow and become community endeavors. We are also already seeing strong interest from other companies and organizations in participating in this experiment.
That is wrong. There are multiple options and the environmental friendly ones consist of mostly solar and wind.
Is it just me or does ESG feel like a giant virtue signal from companies and investors?

Taking this specific issue of nuclear. Nuclear Energy is objectively cleaner than other forms of energy generation and is objectively safe if you operate it properly. With that said, it seems like Nuclear Energy would be embraced by the ESG crowd, but that simply wasn't the case.

Now that the rubber met the road, the sentiment has changed. So was nuclear actually bad? Or was it just "bad". Almost seems that everyone was so obsessed with going green and getting rid of "big bad nuclear" that they forgot that they depend on it. Much like a kid quitting his job to pursue the arts and then realizing, he can't make rent without the job they just quit...
The limiters on scooters and bikes is to let them ride as a bike - many localities say that a mike that can go over X MPH is a motorbike and treated as such (requiring licenses, etc).

I'm surprised that insurance companies haven't offered discounts to people willing to limit their vehicle to certain speeds; but my guess is that the hassle isn't worth it.
Measles is fatal in about .1% of infections (less than Covid), with hospitalization rates of about 25% and causes hearing loss and long term immune system damage in a decent number of infections.

Mumps can occasionally cause fertility issues in males, among other issues, and is quite painful but rarely fatal (approx. .03-.05%).

Shingles is terrible for adults, and you can’t avoid the risk of you got the live virus. If you’re vaccinated before being exposed, I believe the risk is much much lower but I don’t have the numbers handy.

Why not? Can they not build LNG terminals?
That’s a really silly statement. You know what would reduce gas consumption even more? Reliable nuclear reactors with constant output.

I would agree with this. The environment of a baseball game at a minor league is comparable to a major league team as far as setting and atmosphere.
Bits are in such short supply these days that it's necessary to save 32 of them. Think of all the things you could be doing with those 32 bits!
The quality of minor league baseball, at least the level available to me (Single A), is way below that of the major leagues but the entire experience is 2x-5x cheaper before adding in the cost of transportation and a hotel. The nearest MLB team is almost 4 hours away from me. Our minor league team is about 10 minutes away.

So, since I can get a ticket, parking, food, and a couple of local microbrews for less than $50, I'll attend the minor league games and watch the MLB team in 4K from my living room. The games tend to be faster too, so often I can go the the minor league game and then catch the last inning or two of the MLB game at home.
Safety? nuclear is the safest source of energy.
I believe the government should increase yearly registration costs exponentially based on lower MPG.

If you get 10-18 MPG... you must pay 10 times the registration fee that a 40-50 MPG hybird pays.
So far the four of us who have turned 18 are doing great for ourselves, so it turned out pretty well. No neglect, great food, and an excellent education.

>First, revoke the license. That means they are no longer permitted to redistribute the code.

I wonder how it works. What is the act of revoking an open source license exactly? I assume they simply sent a letter and wrote a blog post? Pretty sure in my country it would have no legal force. Is it different in the US?
Some people discover much too late that there are some things they wish they could take back. Often before trying to get a better job or when trying to escape an abuser. Given the ramping up of attacks (legal and otherwise) on queer people, this is going to be a huge issue over the next decade or so.
I think you have a good point. In regard to movies, there's an additional explanation: so many families have home theaters with large flat screen tvs. Cinemas have to compete with that and they do so by ramping up the experience, which of course costs more.
The anti-nuclear cause wouldn’t have nearly been bolstered as much if the Three Mile Island incident hadn’t occurred.
RE browser vs reading the code: sounds like you have a nicer setup than my neovim setup. Although I think my first point still holds unless CLion handles that case too.

With respect to the rest of your comment, indeed, those are issues. Although I think I take issue with you pinning this on rustdoc. I actually think it's a dance between documentation presentation (so, rustdoc), API design and familiarity with the language.

I've long said that rustdoc makes unknown unknowns difficult to discover, and this is particularly painful for folks new to Rust. Because you don't really know what to look for yet. And writing docs is a difficult exercise in perspective taking, where you need to balance what you think others know. If you assume they know too little, it's not hard to end up writing too much and adding a fair bit of noise. With that said, I agree that "too little docs" is a far more common problem than "too many docs."

But yeah, your experience is a perfect example of what I mean when I say "generics complicate APIs." They introduce indirection everywhere, and I'm not sure how much rustdoc can really help with that. You might be right that maybe there are some visualizations that can be added, but like you, I've always seen those as gimmicks in other tools that are rarely useful. IMO, a heavily generic API really requires the crate author to write more prose about how their APIs are intended to be used with lots of concrete examples. But that's really hard to do, because writing good docs requires being a good communicator, and most of us suck hard at that.

The interesting bit here is that I've personally found the documentation experience in Rust to be far far better than any other ecosystem. All the way from writing docs up to consuming them. I've sampled many different ecosystems (C, C++, Haskell, Python, Go to name some) and other than maybe Go, I thought the doc experience was really just not great in any of them. Python specifically seems to be a case where I tend to see a lot of variance in opinion. I hated Sphinx so much, for example, that I built an alternative.[1] (Well, alternative for API docs, pdoc does not deal with the non-reference case.) I also just generally dislike the output that Sphinx produces. I find that it lacks structure, and I've always had a hard time navigating my way through Python library docs.

big trucks are so cliche and should go the way of steam engines, but the government doesn't have the right to limit how big they can be.

Tragedy of the commons is a real thing, it's not a pet peeve, you disingenuous dumbass
The syntax looks a lot like Rust, though. I'm surprised they made such a break when there explicit goal is to make migration from C++ as easy as possible. Also, Rust (from my biased point of view) is currently on its way to become the standard low-level language, so I'm not too confident that Rust-but-with-OO is enough of a selling point.
You mean like in a global pandemic? (cries in fact based decision making)
There are a lot of reasons you can end up in this situation, and as many solutions to apply. Identifying the problems, choosing the appropriate solution and implementing it is a job.

You cannot learn an entire job from a HN post.

However, one solution can be used to solve all those problems: put a product manager in charge with a background in ergonomics (in the steve krug sense), and have this person steer the project from start to finish, with the legitimacy to direct people effort and choose policies.

The hard part now becomes to hire a good one.

A good one will know programming (Xor design), ergonomics and customer support. This person will know how to talk to the customer/end users, to the boss, but also to the designers and the devs.

Because eventually that's what it is about: having a good product vision, but being able to make sure this vision matches what the customers need, sell that to the boss, then direct the team to get it.

Expecting all of those people to behaved optimally is like hopping to win the lottery. It may happen, but chances are low:

- the boss may want fast things for cheap, or have another agenda/point of view about the project

- the customer don't know how to express what they really need. Sometimes they don't even know before you ask them.

- the designers are skilled at making visual things, but not all of them get out of their way to make sure they are making the visual things that are needed.

- the devs are skilled at making programs, but not all of them get out of their way to make sure they are making the things that are needed.

- they don't talk the same language, so every conversation means one should be capable and willing to make the effort of taking in a foreign jargon and context.

So unless you are very lucky to have most of those doing exactly what you want them to do, you need somebody that will steer the ship. And it's WAY easier to hire one single person with those skills than to make sure every single team member you hire is going to be able to see more than one's own area of expertise.

If you can't hire that person, then the next best thing is becoming that person.

In that case, you may want to read "Don't makes me think", all 37signals books, and "the mythical man month" for a first step into the marvelous world of building products with reality as it is, instead of what people wish it to be.

The rest of course is a lot of practice, talking to a lot of bosses, customers, designers and devs, then try to get the product in the right direction.

It's a long (yet interesting) journey, though, so good luck.
It would be a social good to do the inverse, to help the identities integrate instead of segregate. By living together we can more easily discover that our gender and sexuality define us less than our common humanity. As with our ethnicity and religion.

> and nuclear just can't get built in under a decade

This is a tired argument. Ten years ago, the green movement was saying the same thing and in ten years, they'll be saying the same. It's always a good time to invest in green power, although it would have been even better to do it ten years ago.
Not specifically through Chrome (managed chrome does not give your employer access to incognito or personal profile data), but if it's a company owned and issued laptop you should assume they have other ways of capturing all activity on the device.
why camel-case functions tho :(
Yeah, but the problem is that people will still use the new parts too.

I never really liked any of the JS's attempts at OOP, be it the original prototype-based or the newer class-based, but I think that people were sufficiently confused enough by the prototype system that most people didn't bother with it. The class stuff is more approachable, and for some people that can sort of be viewed as a bad thing.
This is bizarre nonsense. Because you don't know how to do something successfully then the government should regulate it for everyone? People have been raising huge families for ages. Mormon families for example are known for often being massive and still successful.
The engineers might understand the issue better than legal. Most engineers I've meet understand the spirit and intentions of the open source license far better than the legal teams, who are more interested in whether or not you could be successfully sued.

One of the issues with open source software, from a branding perspective, is that you can technically be in the clear, but violate the social contract that implicitly exist in the community. Many companies fail to factor that part in when running licenses through legal.

Ok so two points somewhat mollified depending on geography and ecology, if you happen to live somewhere with trillions of acres of land with ample rivers then you're A-OK but if you instead are somewhere with only a few major rivers and higher population density you're up the creek so to speak. What about the rest?
Depending on who you talk to and your definitions, nuclear is generally considered dispatchable. The only definitively non-dispatchable sources are e.g. wind and solar where they cannot guarantee power levels and availability during the dispatching window. It is a bit of a spectrum - some sources (i.e. nat gas plants) are considered highly dispatchable because they can be spun up and down and adjust power levels very quickly (i.e. load following).

Alright then we're in agreement.

> What I am saying is that the rich countries need to quit their double standard. The EU keeps putting absurd trade barriers to protect their own farmers. The US subsidizes their corn farms, effectively killing the Brazilian industry for biofuels. European NGOs are financed to disparage Brazil's investments in hydropower, while depending on Putin for gas and coal.

Oh, I agree with all that. That's an important post.

> So, yeah, agro business is far from ideal, but now is the only feasible alternative for Brazil to come up with any chance of development, and they will also work against that? I'd be more than willing to listen what they have to say if they were setting the example...

I guess my whole point is that foreigners saying "we did it before to grow, Brazil should do it too" is nonsensical, hypocritical and very self-serving, precisely because of your second paragraph. At the same time, I'm ok with foreigners telling Brazil to stop cutting trees because it opens the door to us at least replying with something like the second paragraph.
Actually, I've never known it existed. You're the one who reminded me now. :)
Nike.com allows easy account take over
I am unsure whether to post this as it exposes potential harm to millions of accounts...

Nike.com apparently lets you take over an account by calling in and verifying the email address and phone number associated with the account.

My account was just hacked, someone called in and used my information to change the email address to my name @outlook.com (same as my gmail account).

Their only solution was to delete my account. This is terrifying.
The same what I am doing when all the nuclear power plants are down.

In fact this isn't going to happen and there needs to be enough fungible capacity both internally and in the European grid. Right now, France is highly dependent on the grid, as 50% of the nuclear plants are down.

It's not really a pet peeve, the government actually subsidizes large vehicles, many of which do a disproportionate amount of roadway damage.

So maybe not a restriction, but at least let's end the subsidies. A tax by weight, which has been recommended by some in the past, seems entirely reasonable as well.

The US is constantly shooting itself in the foot with what I'd argue aren't too many regulations... but regulations prioritizing the wrong things.
If this is a trick then you could arguably put pretty much any marketing into the same category. Looks nice? Cheaper than competition? Has newsletter? Great SEO? Really well authored content? Lovely video? Are these all "tricks" too? Because at some level, yes, you're being manipulated by pretty much anything that triggers desire.

Seems entirely legitimate to me that people can choose whatever tools they want to sell the thing they've spent loads of time working on. And in the same way it's also entirely legitimate for you and others to simply choose not to buy.
I might as well repeat the overprotective parent perspective. Fatalities are higher if you're in a sedan in an accident with a pickup or semi. There are a lot of trucks on the road as well. Finally, road accidents are the one of the biggest risks young people face.

So ignoring the fact that this makes it into an arms race of weight and size, a parents desire for child safety wins against someone's desire to lower carbon emissions.
I wouldn't agree...minor league teams appeal to gimmicks at all costs and have distorted stats because the balance of the game is meant for big-leaguers.
Designing a language to interop well with a single language is short sighted in my opinion. I want a clean ffi that I know will be able to iterop with Swift, Typescript, C#, C++, C, python etc...

No-- but there is a middle ground between institutional paralysis requiring safety-at-any-cost... and laissez-faire, safety-be-damned!

Ever since local NY authorities prevented a distant completed reactor from ever being operated by refusing to write a regulation-mandated evacuation plan, it's been mostly impossible to build nuclear in the US. Why put lots of capital at risk when rules might change and it can be decided "ehhhh, nevermind, you can't operate!" at the end of the process years later.
Why did you use the most expensive AA level? Aren’t the “minimum” costs available at C level spots? Looks like there are sites where you can pay $35 instead of $60. Certainly you could also do a minimum 1 night stay, rather than 2 nights?

https://www.ontarioparks.com/fees/camping/2022

Your consumption of gas, beer, firewood and food don’t really support the idea of increased camping costs either, right? You’d likely have beer & food & heating, and drive somewhere anyway, no? Nothing here except the park fee is specific to camping, and aside from gas this year they haven’t increased by much either.

Woah, thanks for the link!
I met a quite a few folks online and then met them later in person.

I am tied to several communities where there is a whole lot of overlap between people online and in-person activities. For instance, I am involved with a long-running folk festival in Texas that has a large community, and many of those people are on social media. It's a fairly regular thing that I meet people at that festival who I'd previously only met in online spaces.

Similarly, I play music and I rock climb. I'm also involved in several forums for those activities. I've met up with quite a few folks over the years who I only knew from those forums, mostly because both those activities often require other people to participate.

Your point that "everyone is busy" is correct, I think. The big factor is what people are busy doing and finding the folks who are already busy doing things you would like to do.
The difference isn't just age.

Grana Padano and Parmigiano-Reggiano are different cheeses, just like Camembert and Brie are different cheeses. Since they're both PDO, you can read the detailed requirements [0,1]. The differences are primarily the regions where they're produced and how the milk is processed.

Stravecchio is just an adjective that means "old" or "mature" [2] and can be applied to any kind of cheese, wine, or whatever.

AFAIK this is the only one what is compatible with C++ at the source level. As much as I like C++ I think it has a lot of accidental complexity built in and the syntax is too verbose at times. I also think that a lot of people (me included) do not want to switch to something like Rust immediately because of the existing C++ code and the friction of having to make it interoperable. So I believe this is actually a great experiment. Will see whether it works or not, but I hope it will.
