I don’t exercise a lot but when I play tennis and I am happen to be pushing to my limits (2 hrs, no breaks almost), there is a point when I get a sudden rush of pleasure for about a minute when I get a lot of goosebumps. Afterwards, I am in such a good mood and feel like I can push for a little bit more before being totally done. I am not sure if something like this is what people refer to as exercise highs?
You see this in competitive dinghy racing. One person will intentionally starve their competitor of good air, so they know and could do the opposite if they wanted.
Lots of sports deal with this “dirty air” concept like Formula 1 especially, regulations were changed for this season so the car in front produces cleaner air off the back so cars behind can follow better (which provides a better chance to overtake/better viewing spectacle).
Experience has shown us that setting up a secure update mechanism is less risky than not updating your applications regularly.

Is this always the case? Nope. But for most cases, updating often against newly exposed threats is worth the vulnerability that auto update introduces.

> Is it? His free speech was not violated. It just wasn’t published by Twitter.

The line between free speech (of publishers) and government censorship is somewhere around "did the government tell the publisher to do it?". This case probably doesn't cross the line, but it's definitely in the grey area, and being in the grey area is bad optics.
So, in the 2022 released budget military spending accouted for 10 percent of all spending and 50% of discretionary spending. While we're spending that on active campaigns (not the dark ones), we aren't spending that on health care, education, infrastructure or disaster. Not to mention a cracking and floundering legal system in dire need of reform.

We outspend every other country by a lot, including China and Russia combined... and then the next three added on top. We are not the only world power who has a moral obligation to keep the world safe, if that is what you say we are doing.

I say this as the son of an Army veteran who died to 5 different cancers caused from agent orange, only 3 of which would the VA cover after we fought (hard) with them. And the cousin to a Navy admiral whose almost up to his 25 years.

If C++ is all you know you really should diversify a bit, learn something very different, like a lisp or Haskell. You probably won't come away doing everything in that new language, but it will certainly expand your way of looking at things.
It's really annoying because people often use the tag in a jokey way. I see it a lot on the bread/sourdough reddits. It's funny, but the new redirect to login really breaks the assumption there.
Yes, but not of predation. The number of rabbits which die of age or starvation in their burrows over the winter, or disease, is not zero.

You saw the same with cars. Back in say 1950, most car owners would know how to do basic maintenance and repairs, both because the cars was mechanically simpler, but also less reliable. With higher reliability and more complex cars, that is no longer the case. Now the same thing is happening with computers.

I recently decided to leave go and back to c++ for a microservice project, with the new coroutine and async in modern c++, I failed to see anything Go can that c++ can not do, plus the latter has no GC and is just more performant. I will stick to c++ for other future projects.

tried Rust for a few times, finally gave up due to the learning curve and still young ecosystem, it's hard to learn multiple languages and become good with them, I will pinpoint on c++ for other new projects as it seems can do all I wanted.

unless you’re new to reddit, you’d know there’s heavy censorship on plebbit

r/undelete has some things and there were other sites created to catch the stuff that was pruned outright, especially comments. If you don’t support the ‘hivemind’ echo chamber, and talk about forbidden things (+govts) you get censored.
Encrypted communication protocols are also useful for evading the law; do you think they should also be banned and the developers arrested?
Ask HN: Why am I always stuck working on legacy software
I never seem to get picked for the new projects that involve new tech stacks and migration efforts. At my current company I am still maintaining an old codebase and Oracle database where some peers are working on migration to AWS and snowflake. Even at previous jobs I was always staffed on the unimportant legacy projects despite expressing interest in newer exciting projects . I do try to self learn and get certifications but somehow never get chosen to work on new exciting projects .

I do a lot of running and a few times a year in my training there's a run where everything just lines up perfectly. I'll be well rested, focused, got some pretty scenery to look at, and moving fast with what feels like pretty low relative effort. Those moments definitely capture a lot of the joy of running for me, but if I was doing all my training just to chase them it probably wouldn't be worth it. A lot of the time it's in races but not always.

Separately, I usually feel pretty good after a run too. Some workouts I feel absolutely wrecked after, but most workouts, once you have a good fitness base, you feel pretty good after.

I'm not sure which of those, if either, are a 'runners high', but most runners I know have moments more like those than like an actual high.
Earwax from Whales Keeps Record of Ocean Contaminants (2013)
I said 'repeatedly' because you posted obvious flamewar comments several times in this thread:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32426780

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32426607

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32426432

We ban accounts that post like that, so please don't do post like that here.

In terms of the specific comment I replied to: even if we ignore your other comments, it seems obviously sarcastic and aggressive. If you didn't intend it that way, you should have written it very differently.

People sometimes think that their intent communicates itself when posting comments, but it doesn't—it has to be encoded into a message in a way that the reader can receive.

You click on options and it generates code that is clearly readable on the right panel. You then have the option to copy paste it yourself or download the file. Then you can read the generated bat file before running it.

It's not JS either.
What about Markdeep? Astonished that none of the commenters here seem to know of its existence. See https://casual-effects.com/markdeep/.
You use this and then register whatever hooks you need. Can run before or after the first scene has been loaded etc. Put the configuration in some ScriptableObject somewhere in the project and load things based on that, or just hard code the things you need.

https://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/RuntimeInitializeOn...

Edit: Alternatively just have a main scene and load/unload the other scenes as sub scenes, and put the application level objects in the main scene. Or use the above attribute and spawn the global objects and mark those object as "dont destroy on load" to make them survive the simple scene transitions. Or use normal C# static objects. There are so many ways to handle this, unity doesn't really block you from doing things, just code whatever you need.
I think the RTOS side is being addressed pretty well for rust, which libraries do you feel are missing now?
I agree with this comment, except its feasibility.

Non tech people do not trust tech, even if (unaffiliated) tech people assure them it's trustworthy.

An example: a poker room near me had electronic tables. They were fantastic--super fast deals, no miscounting, no acting out of turn, etc. But people thought they were rigged.

For who? There's no obvious way for the table to pick favorites. Nobody thought there was a dial some guy could turn for his friend.

They thought it was rigged for the house, to get the maximum rake more often. Nevermind that they get the maximum rake virtually every pot anyway, and introduce a huge risk.

The guys knew me, knew I was in tech, and still didn't trust my opinion on it.

Anyway the game died and the tables were taken away. We still don't have a local poker game, to my detriment.

Even if the results were public and we ran analysis on them and found them to be legit, I think that would increase the average person's trust by 1-2%. They don't even understand the system.

At least they can understand paper ballot voting. I think it would make the most sense to film all the sorting and counting, and make it publicly available. Then people can study it until they're content.

Yeah that’s why China is sending people to camps out in Xinjiang.

Is it dishonest to buy a rabbit and not mention that you're planning to eat/breed/keep it as a pet?

No of course not, it's none of the seller's business. If they say "hey we're vegan please don't eat our rabbits" that's a different matter, it would be at the very least polite to respect those wishes.

Why on Earth would returning a rabbit to a farm where they eat them be any different? In this case the possibility is perfectly clear.
It could be the first of many. Up until yesterday we lived in a world (by which I mean the Western World) where no one had ever been arrested just for writing open source code. It appears that this is no longer the case. This is how the Overton window gets moved, one step at a time, not in huge leaps. And clearly there are powerful forces interested in moving it in a direction that would likely be detrimental to many of us here.

"TV programs with commercial interruptions tend to correlate with people reporting higher enjoyment of the TV program"

If you want to start assuming that a TV show you've chosen to watch will be more enjoyable with commercials go ahead, but that wasn't the way the study was done.
> "Reddit is horrific because the moderation on the website is so heavily biased towards the current mantra of the US Democrats"

Two notes:

1. The moderation on the site is driven by the culture of the people on the site. In sociology and politics you can approach things from the top or the bottom - what does the King say or what does the Populace say. Even a King's powers are not unlimited, they need political support from someone, and those people need political support - you can see this many times in history when a king is de-throned (I'm saying king, but you can substitute any political leader)

2. I don't think it's the moderation or the mantra that make reddit a horrific hellscape. I think it's the feeling of righteousness around certain topics. Righteousness is very useful to leaders. It is very motivating, it gets people to take action and vote or give money to a campaign. It's completely natural to feel righteous about topics of morality.

Social media turns that feeling of righteousness into clicks and interactions. When you have clicks and interactions, you can sell ads. This doesn't even need to be an intentional from the company or platform. People will do it automatically.

Unfortunately, that feeling of righteousness may not be personally or socially rewarding in the long term, and it is very destructive to authentic and meaningful conversations.
Ah ah.
Thanks VLC by the way, for skipping this bs directly to the DVD menu.
Insofar as minorities seek greater legal representation and rights, "Asian American" makes perfect sense as a political identity. If you're Burmese, why not throw in with Thai and Chinese Americans?

However, I'm unsure if anything tangible can be discerned about Americans' attitudes toward "Asian Americans." There are simply too many cultures represented that share not enough in common. Even "Hispanics" (a vexing, incoherent classification) have more in common than Asian Americans.

If you don't know what you're measuring, it's hard to understand the data and give it appropriate context.
Thanks! I've not specifically checked for overlap but in theory they should be totally fresh each week, unless someone reposts content. The Reddit scraping is done with PRAW [0] which checks through the top 500 submissions ordered by upvote count in the last week. I imagine it's the same process as ordering by top>"Last week" on Reddit itself. Since the bot runs at the same time each week there should be no overlap with the previous week, but it probably depends on the Reddit API and how it interprets time.

Giant combat robots controlled by insects. What could possibly go wrong?
If the body was big enough it would have completely erased the earth’s crust, after cooling again our current crust would be a mixture of both bodies.

Having an outsized moon might also degrade the orbit of any material that would have been left over after coalescing into the earth and moon.
This form of gatekeeping doesn’t make a lot of sense. DNS isn’t simple to understand, many very knowledgeable people still make mistakes with it. Expecting everyone to have a perfect understanding of DNS before they buy a domain is as unreasonable as not allowing someone to buy a car until they can assemble an engine.

1. The other celestial body leave a very obvious elemental makeup in the collision point on earth? We can detect other asteroids, but this one was 100% identical to Earth's crust?

Earth's crust was rubble and magma. Sort of like how you couldn't find an impact point if you threw a water balloon into a can of paint.

Why didn't the debris left by the collision form a ring around earth like Saturn?

It did. Earth had very impressive rings for thousands of years after the impact.

It almost seems like the crypto space has, from my perspective, conflicting narratives:

1. Institutions/governments are bad, and manipulate currencies for evil purposes, Bitcoin is good because they can't manipulate it, etc.

And

2. Institutional adoption is a good thing because it will bring money into the space and cause the next bull run and we'll all be rich, etc.

I mean, when has Blackrock(or really any privately held corporation with shareholder profit as priority #1) ever had good/pure intentions in line with 1? They don't care about Bitcoin being "the future of money", they just want to make a buck off the commissions. Same deal with the various futures and derivative products based on its price. Or maybe they're just trying not to say the quiet part loud?

I'm doing a (free) backup system (just a hobby, won't be big and professional like dropbox) for PC, Mac and Linux. This has been brewing since april, and is starting to get ready.

To me the choice was between C# or C++, but I ultimately chose C++, because while C# is much faster to code in, when there is a problem, coding directly against the OS, I have much more control in what actually happens and in what dependencies I really have.

Edit:

I also must confess that I'm enamored with the idea of having a comparatively tiny executable without any other runtime dependencies than itself and the OS.

For build system I use meson, and cross compile the Windows targets. It works from Windows XP through Windows 10. (If you have any 32-bit version of Windows, you get the "32 bit XP" version. If you have 64 bit but it's older than Vista, you also get the "32 bit version".)

>Is the world not multipolar?

An argument could be made that the US stopped being the arbiter of last resort wrt the medium of trade since the Ukraine war, but before that point, it was certainly not multipolar. There was one political entity that, along with its allies, controlled the value of money, and they were disincentivised from cheating too hard by the fact that they could dictate terms to the rest of the world if it was important enough to them.

But I grant you, heavily-guarded ships full of physical gold would still work today. If that's a future you're on board with you may want an answer for how the piracy problem will evolve if trends around the cost of kinetic weaponry continue.

One relative of mine insists on getting me gifts. They seem to think that they know what I'd like better than I do, but they don't! I frequently don't like the gifts they give.

I've tried to guide them towards better choices by giving them a wishlist every year and even giving them a few rules. But they don't use the wishlist as much as they should, and they try to bend the rules. "Oh, you said that you didn't want X, so I thought it would be nice to get you X'." I have to think about how they are going to misinterpret any rule I give them now.

Perhaps the worst part is that they get somewhat offended when I point out that I don't want particular gifts. They also frequently point out when you're using their gift. For example, I don't know how many times they've told me "nice shirt" when I wore I shirt they bought me. I also suspect that they get somewhat offended if they don't see me using their gift.
