AC systems are pretty good at dehumidifying as well. I'm going to be replacing my home AC system soon (it's 13 years old) and was asking our AC maintenance guy about getting an oversized system. In central Texas days approaching 110 seem to be the norm these days. In this weather, my "correctly" sized system can only drop the temperature around 25 degrees different than the outside. He advised against going oversized because apparently a big system cools faster than it removes moisture and you can end up with a block of ice at the exchanger or get condensation and then mold inside.

I was thinking a smarter thermostat should be able to monitor humidity in the air and run the AC at a low level, ramping up as moisture goes down, but that doesn't seem to be a feature in any of them (product idea?).

Maybe a separate dehumidifier like the one in the article combined with an oversized system could work?
Super cool. I'm a fellow midwesterner and love to see this in Indiana.

I'm guessing that's not typical for most devs and most job openings. Recruiters in particular seem to assume they need to find devs experienced with particular stacks, and for companies who need to quickly re-fill roles after losing staff, a good dev with experience in the stack/ecosystem you've been working with is always going to get up to speed faster than one without that experience. I'd also say convincing hiring managers that specific libraries/ platforms/languages/tools that you've been using shouldn't be listed as "must have"'s in a JD is hard.
I guess since nothing is risk free I should just put everything into crypto. [Sarcasm notice: This is sarcasm.]
That’s mostly good for dating other men. For women it’s only the psychological benefit you get from it.

Anyway, if you’re dating a lot you’re failing. Should be taking advice from people who only had to go on one first date, they know how to pick winners.
I see. The Green movement is globally all powerful, and you explain away the fact that the world is still not a Green utopia by saying the Green movement isn't actually Green. This is awesome mental gymnastics!

The alternate explanation is that nuclear is a sick technology, and the Green movement is not responsible for its failure. Nuclear was so weak even a group as feckless as the Greens could have success against it.
More invested in nuclear fusion in last 12 months than past decade
Entirely agree.
> when your compiler called foo(int) instead of food(bar *) just because you passed NULL

That's what I meant that we don't have to worry about in C since you can't even have two different functions with the same name (assuming you meant foo instead of food).

> Thus the argument you should be making is not "why should C have these features" but "why should C be deprived from these features".

That's not an argument; that's a question. I wanted to know whether there was any reason to start using nullptr, like if there is a risk of making a bug if I use NULL. I did later find a page about nullptr in C [1] that talks about some risks of using NULL with varargs.

It's not tied to your compensation or ranking.

Your forte, when you discuss it with your manager, should give you some growth areas that you should improve. If in your next talent review, you haven't made much progress, that will contribute to your ranking naturally but that's about it
The limit on FDIC insurance isn’t a problem, you just get more than one account.
Sure, I agree there's an incentive force pushing scores up. I was responding to a comment asking what possible countervailing force could push scores towards accuracy. The answer is pretty obvious, as the yelp reductio ad absurdum shows.
I've never seen a single public library filled with homeless people. What area is this?
Not sure why this was submitted here but not complaining!

MP is nice, but lacking. Hard to complain when it's free and it's user provided data.

One thing maybe more relevant for HN there is a new company doing 3d scans of sport crags.

It looks really really cool. But I only boulder - would still be amazing to have.

https://www.rockgarden.io/

Way more helpful than user submitted photos and directions which are only half correct, and missing 70%

MP also suffers from the most active climbers mot wanting to share their favorite place.

This sport becoming too popular is a legitimate problem in many spaces - indoor and out.

Guidebooks are still mostly a 1 person, small publisher thing. Which I love.

Jamie Emerson is one of the fathers of CO climbing and is releasing 2 new books. MT Evans is out. I can't wait for RMNP.

This is a hard space to scale as a free service. because like a lot of online things only like the top .1% are providing the bulk of the knowledge and content.

History and stewardship are big problems too.

Blasting music in the Park for instance. And then arguing flame wars on Insta between a teen and Jamie :)

Access is constantly threatened and it takes outreach and relationships with land managers to keep open. Saving Little Cotton Wood is a big one that looks like they're going to literally be steam rolled and blasted apart.

Though some of these 'old guys' used to stash pads themselves lol. Can complain about ethics but climbing has had a rebellious, anti-establishment streak. Losing the nicheness and seriousness of climbing is hard for me (gyms are filled with once in a while happy hour climbers and man-splanning dates)

It would be awesome if RockGarden got some corporate backing or funding to expand. Only a few companies (red bull comes to mind. Yeti too.) that are willing to spend without an obvious direct ROI.

Make DIY scanning rigs & send to paid locals across the world.

You make some good arguments, but if a site is caught in the act of hosting obvious malware, Cloudflare should make a reasonable effort to suspend their activity.
I think we all have an understanding that this is through taxpayer (corporate or resident) money. Is it really a myth? Free, in this context, is implied and inferred as 'the consumer doesn't pay directly for the ticket'. There is no trickery here.
But you don't run the compiler on a computer without a file system. How would #include works otherwise?
A good example is aluminum production in Iceland, which has a disproportionally huge aluminum refining industry (it makes almost as much aluminum as the whole of USA despite having literally 1000 times smaller population) simply due to the availability of cheap energy and access to ocean shipping.
Does zig have as a selling point that it has _more_ UB than C?
Parking is free nearly everywhere, highways are free nearly everywhere, and the US hardly taxes and cars at all compared to the rest of the developed world.
True but i think the comment you are responding too is commenting that “this was not my experience” can’t be known without more information.

But to your point you only have so much time and it will likely help narrow down better long term partners if your profile is honest
> The main issue with train travel in the US is that many passengers are going to need a car when they reach their destination.

It's not a big issue as you may think. This is the case with air travel too, but people would gladly fly and then rent a car. The biggest barrier is the cost and the time it takes.
Thank you, it's a Wacom and a Behringer external card.
This reminds of the shirtless / not shirtless studies that use plainly artificial edited in muscles, no scenic background whatsoever (just a wall, not even a basic pool), and are just not generalizable to real (online) dating experiences.

But why do you assume that they don't like cats or even have an opinion on them? Most of first glance opinion forming is subconscious or near subconscious. It's less likely to be "I see a cat. I hate cats. Next" and more "Nah, not feeling it. Next".
Ask HN: What talents or interests have you discovered later in life?
That is why you have separate business phone numbers and addresses that you should be ok with being public and are not actually used for anything serious security wise, so you don't care if it is 'breached', because it's already publicly listed.
I tend to agree with people mocking this pov, but working as a university instructor… holy hell! There really are some very entitled and shameless people out there. I doubt it’s generational, though.

Understand the motivations of your managers, and your managers manager.

Figure out who the internal competitors are.

Learn what gets rewarded in an organisation. This often has little correlation to actual value.

Optimise for political capital, not whats right.

Don't make a scene. Don't cause drama. Don't be stupid enough to lead anti-company movements, e.g. discussing pay inequality, or unionisation.

Be cordial and respectful to everyone, even if they don't deserve it.

If you're trying to block sound, IEMs are usually the way to go. A bit more expensive for comparable sound quality, but it's worth it for the increase in portability
Very interesting.

It took me a while for no good reason but I finally got an unofficial extension to add a "block" button to search results. It immediately improved my experience, I can't recommend it enough.

Killing Gawker was Thiel’s only good act. They started out that trial by saying they’d publish a sex tape of a four-year-old in their deposition.
> Men with dogs will be perceived as more masculine than men with cats.

Would a skinny guy with a chiuaua look more muscular than a bulkier guy with a cat? What about fat guy with a retreiver? If you are average build do cats add a "gentle giant" vibe? As opposed to a "tiny dick"/"he is compensating" stereotype if he had a pitbull?

The car stereotypes are interesting, it use to be that a muscle car or a big truck made you look stronger but now it has the opposite effect. Overt displays if masculinity can be mistaken for insecurity about your weakness these days so this study is interesting in my opinion.
If you were dying of cancer and told your doctor you planned on drinking a lot of tea I assume your doctor would be like "Yeah, sure - couldn't hurt." Drinking tea is not weird, lots of people do it, and there are no real risks because you're dying anyway.

On the other hand, if you were like "I'm a biohacker, I'm going to genetically modify a virus to infect me and alter my immune system." Then I assume the doctor would say "Hey, let me get some people to take a look at that." Because that is weird and there are risks.

"Weird" doesn't mean good or bad, it means unusual. Unusual things have the property that we don't do what they will cause, because they haven't been done much, because they are unusual. Genetic biohacking probably does have a greater chance of saving your life, or increasing your farm yields, but there are possible downsides to it that are not present in more mundane interventions.
I've seen people that had contrary, skeptical, positions on Sudden Onset Gender Dysphoria get deplatformed by hosting providers.
Interesting, why do you think so?

There are definitely variations between different authorities (NHS, FDA, etc). FDA RDIs provide a sane default, and users can update nutrition preferences based on their health goals.
It leads to a massive overproduction of people with no skills.

If you take Softbank, some of the stories out of there are insane. People in senior leadership positions doing things that are very weird (one of them was forced out of Softbank, his first move...raising a $5bn+ VC fund from ME investors).

As I said too, it actually has a real impact on the economy. When 2008 happened, everyone pointed to the investment banks..."how could you do this to us?"...no-one asked why investment banks had clients who specifically required investments that were so toxic...I will tell you: Japanese saving institutions, German/French banks, some non-Japanese East Asian saving institutions, and Middle East SWFs (they have been behind almost every financial crisis in the last ten years: MBS, Eurocrisis, Turkey, EM debt, tech...every single time, going back decades).

People ask why financial markets produce things that are pointless...this is why, because the distribution of assets globally is not guided by the market in any way.
"We compared photos of two men looking fairly relaxed with photos of the same men in a different less open and relaxed pose holding an anxious cat which had never met them before. The results prove that women don't like men with pets."

What if the real and effective user IDs do not match? Would it be necessary to make a consideration for such a case?
Agree on your proposed outcome.

If you have done any sort of social media moderation, you will very quickly develop an immediate reaction to even a trace of abuse or hostility from the users. There are so, so many assholes on the Internet, and you can't fix them. The more effort you put in to one incident, the more of your time these assholes will take up.

The CS rep handling this particular case has dozens of others to handle that same hour. They don't care about you, the user, because you are not a customer, you are the product, and your are easily replaceable. The CS rep's boss also doesn't care about you.
Pretty cool. Imagine if it was free to get around. Right now in the US we have a shit tier system. You can get to a lot of places on a mega bus for cheap. But you will hate every second of it.

I wish all public transit was free as well as Amtrak's.
Yep, if I never have to deal with an automated CI/CD pipeline for iOS again (especially trying to reliably run unit tests - the simulator is flaky as hell) I'll be very happy. I don't even mind the MacOS-only requirement so much (though it does suck), but Apple's tendency to constantly force breaking changes on you is just an endless source of pain (by force I mean, release to App Store not permitted unless you build with version X of Xcode, which requires version Y of MacOS which is incompatible with version just-about-anything-else or everything else you're using.)

The dead internet theory.
The myth I heard was:
Manager has 10 employees who are absolute rock-star engineers. They love their team, work great together, and deliver amazing results.

This manager obviously doesn't want to hurt this awesome team or lose any members, but Amazon wants them to churn out the bad engineers (which this team may not have).

So instead of finding faults where they don't exist, our manager hires 2 engineers with little to no chance of working out in the team long term, give them some busy work, puts them on a PIP, then eventually fires them, only to soon replace them with two new victims.

It sucks to be a victim, and it sucks to knowingly do that as the manager, but it does work out great for the team and the manager - so I think it could happen (maybe not super common, but it isn't unrealistic in my mind).

>This is called “pride” and is historically recognized as one of the largest “problem creators” as far as emotions go

yep life sure is easy if you don't have a spine and accomodate to every little act of bullying thrown at you by modern society. It's not the guy who is wrong, it's the world that is wrong, it's good that he understands it.

The author refuses to take the 'clear path' because that isn't an actual solution to the problem of faceless organisations taking people's abilit to speak away, and he probably recognizes as someone who has an audience it's responsible to sa that out loud.
Or simply that a diet not meeting the nutritional needs can be correlated to worse athletic performance. And since meat is dense in nutrition, and since places with less meat available sometimes is low income, I think it’s plausible.

While I have a lot of complaints with Word, I have to very tepidly take issue with the accusation of ugly fonts. You may like TeX's default typefaces more than Word's, but those are just the defaults. You can set a LaTeX document in Calibri and (presuming you have an OTF version of the fonts) a Word document in Computer Modern.

Word doesn't really do typesetting, though. You can make credible camera-ready output with it if you're rigorous with styles and learn how to anchor figures and images correctly, but the line and page breaks will still say "hi, I'm a word processor."
I would also put an example account or dashboard so people can play with it to understand what it does before going through sign up work.

Another thing is the USDA nutrition info for raw ingredients might be actually a bit out of date, with a lot of the measurements taken long time ago. The actual micronutrient content of raw food can vary greatly depending on what kind of soil it was planted in, how unripe it was before harvesting and many other factors, which isn't shown in this kind of stuff unfortunately. And the quality of soil 30 or 40 years ago is probably radically different than it is now.
The author doesn't mention this in the article, but I think deleting the tweet requires you to acknowledge that it broke the rules:

https://twitter.com/Raddagher/status/1533326201602707458/pho...

Which in this case I think would be a lie. Yes I agree the author should be less prideful and not call Twitter employees "dense" in an appeal. But I don't think the solution is to say the author should lie and say the tweet did break the rules.

Or maybe the rules could be interpreted as "anything that Twitter says breaks the rules does break the rules", meaning it wouldn't be a lie to acknowledge the tweet broke the rules. I haven't analyzed the rules closely.
This is an entirely unsurprising result for anyone capable of observation and understanding revealed preference in day to day life.
> This is an uncharitable view of philosophy without much evidence to show for it

Oh it has a lot of evidence. Just talk to any philosopher ever on any "meta" topic. Whether that be meta ethics, or meta epistemology, or meta whatever.

They start with a conclusion that they want, such as dual-ism, or philosophy souls, or all sorts of things, and then they wrap themselves in obfuscating circles finding a justification than can't be tested in any way outside their own circular pre-suppositions that have no connection to the real world.

> to discount philosophy of science on the whole

When the philosophers start making testable predictions, that I can measure, as opposed to making stuff up in their own self referential assumptions, I will start taking them seriously.

There's no way to make a coast-to-coast trip in the US as fast as a plane ever. It's like, what, 4500km? Even with the fastest regular passenger train in the world which runs at 350 km/h, this will be a 12 hour trip and that's not including the time the train will spend below that speed e.g. for stops. Compared to that, your average Airbus A380 hits 900 km/h as regular cruise speed, rendering that into a much better 5 hour trip.

Not to say high-speed rail doesn't have its uses - by far not, the chief one being replacing flights < 2 hours - but anything above the 2 hour flight time is better kept served by plane.
