indeed, it's a sore spot for patentability too. It's been argued that if the program is math and the math can be done by paper and pencil, then it's too abstract for a patent, which are meant for machines and processes. But compression algorithms have received patents, and could be done by pencil and paper by a determined student... it's a bit like porn I suppose, "know it when I see it"

> These cases are difficult to apply in practice because, as Chief Judge Randall Rader lamented in Accenture, "No one understands what makes an idea abstract."[7] The court's analyses and disagreements can be more easily understood, however, by focusing on the "mental steps doctrine," which is a subcategory of abstract ideas. In this rubric, purely mental processes are not patentable, and consequently methods that can be performed by a person with a pencil and paper cannot be
patented. The recent Federal Circuit decisions are consistent with the mental steps doctrine, and even
sometimes allude to it, but they do not rely on it.

Ain't that the truth? But seriously, if you want a small town with a functioning downtown that isn't ridiculously priced, you are going to have much better odds of finding something east of the Mississippi River. Because the type of town you are looking for needed to be established before the automobile became big.

Geneva, IL and its neighbor to the north (St Charles) are really, really nice. But they're not a cheap places unless you are comparing them to coastal towns. Try this: make a list of all the counties in all the eastern states. Find the county seat of each one. Look at a satellite photo of the downtown area and if it seems solid, check out the street view. If that is also promising, look at real estate prices. Narrow it down to a list of 25-30 towns. And go visit them.
Give them money.

Directly or not. If you're a rich person moving into a poor town, the only way to not piss off the locals is to make them richer. If you can make the whole town richer, you'll be welcomed. Whatever portion of the locals that you don't make richer will hate you. If you don't want to piss off the locals, and you don't want to employ the locals, this is a very expensive plan.
Or in case of Singapore, your heat wave is our most days in 80% humidity. And on the days it isnt hot, it's probably pouring rain... you know 10 seconds of it is indistinguishable from jumping into a swimming pool rain.
Daily standup was helpful when covid first hit to be a means to help keep our team together. But since then it’s sort of morphed into a check-in just for the sake of checking in. Very little value. And folks don’t feel the need to address real issues because it wasn’t brought up in that daily standup. I think there should be more intention to keep folks focused and heads down when they need to be and schedule one-off meetings that serve a purpose.
When you say "a little downtown area" and "homes you want", what exactly would you specify as being the minimum to satisfy these? I ask, because at least one place I know of exists to some definition of having a downtown, with homes in the $200k-400k range.

Because if you really just want a home, a supermarket, a few local restaurants, a bar, a few shops, and an airport within an hour drive, some New Jersey areas come to mind.

But these aren't likely to be dream towns. They will have flaws. Almost certainly will has less walkability than any city you may live in, unless you live on, and never leave, the main strip. There will be less variety in foods, the bar culture you imagine may not be the bar culture that is actually there.
I’m curious, which flashbacks do you have? What do you miss about Israel? If you want to share. I want to go there one day so I’m genuinely curious to know more about your experience. :)
The Extra Cash Account is a completely different offering from Dave's normal cash advances that I'm referring to, and is specifically designed to build people's credit scores, so of course it would be reported to credit bureaus.
Yes of course, $400/month is peanuts so does $8000/month for certain companies.

The point is not the absolute sum but how easy is it to spike your bill by 30 times.

Coca Cola is the only authorized importer of the Coca leaf to USA. They have it shipped to New Jersey where it is decocainized. Coca-Cola gets their coca leaf flavoring, and the cocaine is distributed for medical use.

> Disable access to services in all non-active regions using SCPs.

This is key advice anyway. When setting up new AWS infrastructure for a new company, set up an AWS organization, and only enable us-east-1 (required for some global services like CloudFront) and maybe one additional region (if you don't want to put all your eggs in the us-east-1 basket). Don't enable additional regions that you don't need. Because most AWS APIs are regional, it makes finding aberrant infrastructure much, much easier, even if you're just combing through the console manually.

“No less arresting is Lyme disease, which comes from the bite of a tiny deer tick. If undetected, it can lie dormant in the human body for years before erupting in a positive fiesta of maladies. This is a disease for the person who wants to experience it all. The symptoms include, but are not limited to, headaches, fatigue, fever, chills, shortness of breath, dizziness, shooting pains in the extremities, cardiac irregularities, facial paralysis, muscle spasms, severe mental impairment, loss of control of body functions, and — hardly surprising, really — chronic depression.”

I can show you one counter-example, which should work.

Hunter College High School in New York City is a public school, and its students disproportionately end up in top US universities (from: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hunter_College_High_School).

The graduates of the private high school near the neighborhood I grew up in, however, mostly ended up as accountants after attending a local public university. For specifics, you can take most private high schools in the US (even many of the very expensive ones), and they won't have as good outcomes recorded for their students as Hunter or its equivalent public schools in New York City.

Just skimming the Wikipedia page for that place shows red flags all over the place. The population has been sharply declining since 1970 and the homicide rate is 56 per 100,000 vs the national average of 6.5.

100% yup, it's surprisingly easy to not know where you are.

I was never much of a scout, but the best advice I ever got was go downhill. If you find water, follow the water down. People live downhill. people use water. Finding somebody, anybody, means food and shelter. There are a handful of box canons in the world where this doesn't work, but like, you should know that there is one nearby before the outset. And even if you fall into the box canyon trap, you know where you are.

Yeah, for any casual hiker that goes way off into the woods, first, you're and idiot. Second, why are you wearing cotton? Third, go downhill.
I think the issue is that a lot of those "high level" decisions are also actually made at the code level. It is more analogous to an architect being a city planner, and coders are creating entire buildings (and not just installing the dry wall, but electrical, layout, elevators, plumbing, earthquake stability, etc)

Call it the 'great music' effect, and compare long-term close listeners to superficial listeners, and then I'll be all ears about the 'enhancements' to be gained.

Music is a universal language of feelings. Some speak it haltingly, with maybe some 'hot flashes'. Some readily speak fluently with such nuance, grace, meaning, that profound experiences result. Regardless of genre, that language and its refinements can recognized by many who have listened closely enough to comprehend. Each accomplished composer has a connection with some authentic source.

In the city (by foot, on bike) I tend to look up the map and then memorize it. If I forget I look again and memorize again. But I do not tend to switch on navigation and follow, because it distracts me from seeing the places I pass by.
I agree with you, without a trackpad scroll-bars are required. But in workstations screens are often huge and I guess that it's possible to have a readable/comfortable display of the whole page at a 100% zoom. I have not a workstation, I use to work comfortably on a laptop (MacBook Pro or MacBook Air), a tablet (iPad Pro) in a degraded mode when I am lazily lying in bed in the middle of the night, and a smartphone, at a café, where editing is boring but reading is still rather comfortable using double-clicks to zoom in and out. So I can begin a page here and editing it anywhere else. It's funny.

The interesting thing about caste is that it's basically invisible: unlike race, you can't tell somebody's caste by looking at them. (There is some correlation to skin color, but there are also plenty of eg Tamil Brahmins who are very dark-skinned.) Which is why caste-conscious Indians meeting new people go through an elaborate dance asking about family name, where they're from, if they're vegetarian etc to figure out their caste.
I also moved to a beach town for remote work (albeit one I had deep family ties to). I love it here, and I had to accept higher risk of natural disaster by making this move.

That being said, I would not have wanted to move to the gulf, and certainly not that part of it. Lake Charles got hit by multiple strong hurricanes in 2020, and I drove through a few weeks ago and they’re still covered in tarps and boarded up windows. Look at all the blue roofs on Google Maps! And then compare the distance of Lake Charles and Ocean Springs from the gulf.

Edit: To clarify, I’m sure you know this already. You can’t live there for long and not know. The above is more for the benefit of others who might read your post and not realize the extreme danger posed by rapidly developing, strong hurricanes in the gulf.

Digital thermostats are far more reliable than mechanical ones, as well as more consistent. There are surely other cases where solid state electronics (which have PCBs) replacing mechanical systems have improved the reliability of appliances. So your rule of thumb is surely contrary to reality.
Thanks. It looks like I have to buy into a Hostinger plan to use the panel? If so, then that's what I'm trying to avoid.

I think the general hostility is a reaction to the hype that "this breakthrough means we're closer to an infinite source of cheap, clean energy."

It clearly does not. I can understand the researchers feeling unable to tell the press, "Look, this is just basic research. Like the JWST." It might lead to a massive reaction that "well, then you have to just get in line for those basic research dollars, instead of being a top-priority thing we throw money at."

All those research dollars they'd be giving up!
I suspect this fridge compressor has been misdiagnosed.

Yes, the bearing has failed.

But I suspect it was caused by a substantial DC electrical current running through the motor on top of the AC current it was designed for.

A DC current in many motor designs causes a large sideways force, and that caused the bearing to wear.

DC currents can be caused by improper wiring or another faulty device in the house (or even in a neighbour's house)

What you describe is a perfect literal match for my town (Farmville, VA) up to your ask for a "mid-sized town". We're a town of 8000, half of which are the university students. I like it a lot (and you might well consider it, email me if you like) but it's not at all what I'd consider "mid-sized", and I'm not sure you'll get all the other stuff you describe if you aim for "mid-sized".

But yes, right on, 20 or so shops, walkable downtown with houses an easy walk away, a few good restaurants (including a great diner! :) and at least two friendly bars. Good internet connection if you're in town. I don't get in my car for weeks at a time---and that's probably your hardest item, because anywhere between "pretty small town" and "sizeable city with good public transit" living without a car (in the US) is going to be very very difficult. (Even in a place like Farmville, you don't need the car around town but you'll need it to get out of town.)

The actual process doesn't matter that much. It can be waterfall, kanban or agile.

As long as there IS a process.

Agile is a way of protecting the coders from ad-hoc spec changes, because that's against The Process. The Process is a thing that management and stakeholders understand.

If there is no process, they can just turn up at Cowboy 1:s desk and request/demand/suggest their latest invention and expect it to be done.

sentimental value refers to the memories associated with an object, not the object itself.

I have had it for 30 years, I have listened to hundreds of CD with it (that I also still own). Thousands of hours. I know what it sounds like. It was £210 - I paid for a good chunk of it myself from my first job at Tesco in the smallest city (w/ cathedral) in England, pushing trollies. And! I fixed its crusty old volume pot for a couple of bucks instead of throwing it in the trash.

That's how sentimentality works... for me anyway.

The hadolint project does shell checking for Dockerfiles and it uses shellcheck:

It's often also very local. Everyone knows who some castes are like Patels and Nayars, but how many people in north india know that vellalars are relatively high caste (but not brahman) for instance. And of course the specific relationship between various castes can change village to village.
Unit tests are overrated. They are for algorithms and really complex functions.

Unit testing with 100% coverage is a red flag for me, someone spend insane amounts of time writing tests for useless shit.

Integration tests are the ones that determine whether stuff actually works, have more of them. There's no point in having a test to see if pushing a button produces the correct event if there is no integration test to see if pushing the button does what it's supposed to do in the backend.
You seem opened minded so here it goes.

The problem with this stupid website is I (or no one else) couldn’t even properly reply to you due to censorship.

I intended to write a sample of what actually “shitting on you” would actually be, but I knew the autistic mods would ban me just the same as if I was actually doing so because they lack the prefrontal cortex material responsible for comprehension.

So engaging with you, or really in any valuable conversation on HN, is an exercise in bad faith, everyone must always wrap themselves in a thick layer of bullshit to appease the gods above or else face sanction.
when "saved state" works it help with certain siutation, but the convenience it bring can't not justfy the security cost. Besides, this mechanism is problemmactic under certain situation (AFPS disk full, power cut off, OS crash, etc), there will have corrupted state file, and may leads to data lose.

I'm still remember this problem happen to Atom, cause me a lot of data loss, in the end, apps will have their way of store temporary state file, without relying on macOS's build-in state, like office and all other modern code editor.
Yeah, the difference is that "microfinance" manages to give itself a high-minded image and attract big bucks from Western donors, and go on 60 Minutes.

You should write this up in some more detail maybe and then just post a link to your writeup. It seems you are saying something about a thing reported two years ago and it'd make more sense if you explained why you think 'it's back', why it's important, etc. That way you also don't have the problem of links not working in a text-only post.
