Used car prices have been pretty insane recently. I bought a new vehicle to replace my ~13 year old Toyota 4Runner with some very obvious, and not wholly cosmetic, physical damage and got a $15K trade-in for it. I was shocked.

>Routine newborn vaccines are around $900 per visit even with partial insurance coverage.

Per ACA, all routine newborn care (including vaccines and routine blood draw) is 100% paid by insurance company. The specifics are all listed in the links below.

>Not to mention any unforeseen hospital visits that will force you to hit your deductible in the first two quarters of the year ($10k per child in our case).

This is not true for the US. The maximum out of pocket legal limit for 2022 is $17.4k for a family. If you have a half decent employer, deductibles are far lower (in the $3k to $5k range), and so are out of pocket maximums (in the $5k to $10k range at most).

https://www.healthcare.gov/high-deductible-health-plan/

I would budget at least 2 years of out of pocket maximums to have on hand. In our case, we hit out of pocket maximums of ~$5k and ~$7k during the year of birth, otherwise it costs $150 to $250 for a regular pink eye/ear infection consult and $400 to $500 for a specialist consult. This is in a very high cost of living area.
You say you disagree, but you are actually discussing a separate (even though related) issue: the maintainers' options in these situations.

The article does not say "just fuck off"; it says it is what you should do if you have exhausted all reasonable attempts to get your preferred outcome.
> conducive to remote work with minimal interaction?

Most places have at least a couple hours of overlap with the US. What time zone are you in?

What is your criteria for remote jobs? Perhaps the criteria is too limiting?

E.g. are you refusing jobs that require joining any meetings whatsoever? (Not saying you are, just speculating what the problem might be)
So that’s what killed my web session to various OAuth1/2 auth logins, such as Twitter.

That's something which requires cooperation from the operator, and they have zero interest in it at best, and more likely a strong negative interest on allowing anonymous devices on their phone network, in some countries even a legal prohibition to do so.

What do you mean it wastes a whole cycle? It may indeed have worse performance due to blowing the instruction cache, but I don’t see why would out-of-order execution be slower on the hot path - I doubt there would be too many hot paths without any dependence on memory fetches outside specific benchmarks - the memory loads will take significantly more time even if they hit cache.
if you use cash to onramp and offramp and good vpns to transact your crypto, it is effectively anonymous, transactions will be public but there is no way to tell who's on the receiving end. The hard part here would be finding the cash, which is possible for organized crime. Lately, many have started accepting crypto so there is no need to offramp to buy many things.
Hehe, nice one :)

Please don’t take this as an insult but I’m originally from Edmonton and complaining pedestrians as if pedestrians and not traffic is what causes traffic, as you drive your 5.0 into Edmonton from presumably the suburbs, is the most Edmontonian thing I’ve heard in a while. And then you one-upped yourself because bragging about driving in the snow is the third most popular past-time in Edmonton (after making fun of Toronto for not having 500 snowplows at the ready for a once in 10 year snow storm and making fun of Vancouverites for not being able to drive in snow even though they have to drive on ice/hills and not on snow/flat).
>"no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should"

The alternative seems so destructive to oneself, to imagine your efforts could change how the universe is unfolding. Perhaps your household you could exert some control over, maybe your neighbourhood or village, maybe town or even city, or perhaps if you really have luck through your hard work: country or larger population.

but the Universe? It has its own plans, bred from the physics of long-travelling dust and atoms, and its own path. We are not much of a concern to it nor can we affect change on it. It helps me to look at the stars when I am stressed that I am not "doing enough or being successful enough". Those stars do not know who I am and never will. Enough that I love and am loved, here in this small sphere in time and space where I exist.

I find this thought funny: The faster the reduction, the stronger the lower bound.

When you reduce all-pair-shortest-paths (assuming a cubic lower bound) to your problem in quadratic time, your problem has a lower bound of linear time.
However, when you speed up the reduction to linear time, your lower bound is quadratic time!

This also applies to simulations of TMs. The faster the simulation, the sharper the complexity classes.

Thus, by making something faster, you can show that something else cannot be made faster anymore.

(Afaik this also applies to P vs NP: Find a fast enough algorithm to reduce an arbitrary problem in EXP to NP and you showed that P!=NP)

Jeep Wranglers still offered hand crank windows and a manual transmission until very recently. I think the hand crank windows are now gone, but the MT survived for at least one more generation.
It is true. It's more true on PoS than PoW, since the mechanism in PoW is indirect. We can also consider how it works with traditional currencies, such as dollars, which has a hybrid PoS/??? system: you can receive resources by having the most resources (federal reserve deposits) and you can also receive them by performing services which the democracy deems useful (government spending), and to balance the numbers, resources are passively taken from people who spend their money but not from those who hoard it... maybe not the best design :)
> then a bit of mild criticism should probably be expected

No they’ve every right to ignore your PRs for any reason or no reason at all. You aren’t paying them.

You can ask them to merge but you’ve got no basis to criticise them because they never promised you anything.
They can say that the recommended prices is 550€ but in my country (part of EU) they can not be found under 750€.
Just because it's the whole point of the article doesn't make it true.

In the corporate context of the particular person you're replying to (rather than the general case of an isolated disgruntled user), there are infinitely many options. The above are just the ones 'desired' by the author in their ideal world. Perhaps this could be the unwritten 4th F: "Fight dirty".

You could, for instance, go down the litigation route until shit falls your way. Or pay random shills to post articles twice a week on how React isn't what it used to be because of this bug. You could convince the twittersphere that this particular bugfix is offensive and should be hashtagged. You could pay people to spam their github with issues that are effectively that bug and waste enough developer time until they decide that not fixing that bug is costing them more time than it does to fix it.

If your company C-team feels this is simply a matter of economics and happy to pay the 'cost', these are totally valid options.

And while the author of this blog does have a point and I sympathize, they'd better be prepared to face the consequences of resorting to the 3rd F too quickly when they do. The world is not all peaches and roses out there.
You should see the way I use my Cayman. It’s starting to see more track miles than road miles. Finally using all the speedometer I paid for.
I stand by what I said. Yes, beta-emitters are most hazardous when they are inside your body, if they are together and stay there for a long time. The main examples are Strontium-90 and Caesium-137. The problem with them is that they bioaccumulate. Strontium accumulates in the bones (it is chemically similar to Calcium) and Caesium in the pancreas (it's not clear why. it is chemically similar to Potasium, but it's not obvious why it should accumulate in the pancreas).

Tritium is very different. It is chemically just Hydrogen, which is present everywhere in the body. It just can't bioaccumulate.

In any case, if you don't believe me, here's a statement from the FDA regarding the tritiated water released by Fukushima:

Tritium presents an extremely low human and animal health risk if consumed and any health risk would be further minimized with the dilution effects of discharge into the ocean.

Best Employees Are Burning Out: A Framework for Retaining Talent
The problem is accepting companies with poor working conditions also serves to normalize poor working conditions.

Also, if people want to grind they can do so at at any company. I don’t think any company is going to tell them to stop working. The difference is if the company promotes that culture.
Maybe selective utilization of private vehicles is linked to income, but in many parts of the US, a car is a necessity.

The emphasis being on "hard" real time. Does anyone know of Lisp in (hard) real time applications in current use?
Yeah I'd agree with this. Smaller more windy roads, maybe need more control.

I think a lot of it does have to do with historically bad automatics as well, and the fact that doing your test in an automatic locks you into driving them forever.

Regarding hills, I normally drive with cruise control on so if I'm going 50mph, the car will automatically downshift to maintain that speed. You'd be surprised how many people slow down by default when going up hill because they don't try to maintain the speed and you end up zipping past.
When did people "used to say that Irish weren't white"? Only really starting in the 1990s (with Noel Ignatiev's book) – by which time anti-Irish sentiment in the US was rather long gone. Nobody called Irish people "non-white" during the heyday of discrimination against them.
The person who first convinced someone to start using call centers with people answering the phone who not only speak terrible English but also have undecipherable accents was a hell of a salesman.
It isn't as bad as Symbian C++ used to be juggling MS-DOS batch files, Perl, make and Carbide/Metrowerks project files, but it could have less third party depedencies, between Python, node, Java, cmake and make.

Ask HN: Is more money worth the time/effort?
I am in a leadership role that has limited-to-no project deadlines, a manager and team who actually values my work/input/guidance, and I WFH full time with minimal zoom meetings. But sometimes I feel stuck with no possible further career progression.

Are getting to a higher level and salary worth the time/effort required? Or, is it sort of like “Brandolini’s Law” where it would require that much more energy it’d end up just adversely impacting your overall well-being and isn’t worth the lost time?

I’m sort of at a crossroad in my career in deciding to keep being a tenured employee in my cushy role or jump ship to grab higher TC and add onto résumé.
But now they will read the FAQ with a perfect white "american" accent.

> In the long run, it's usually cheaper to deliver a well-built feature over a longer time period, compared to a poorly built feature delivered promptly.

It is better in theory, but not in practice.

A startup needs to deliver ASAP, and doesn't care if something is built carefully if a competitor beats you out the door with a subpar product. And that applies to any size company in fact.

If you want to take your time doing it well, work for yourself. Because out there what matters the most is delivering as quickly as possible.
Generically, that's called a hill holder, and there were pre-electronic implementations. My 1986 Subaru BRAT had one. I can't speak to how it was to drive; it never worked. The hill holder specifically, the rest of the car mostly worked.

The problem is that there is not much to “talk” about. Do you have scientific evidence in the form of published papers in scientific journals? That is the baseline here.

If anything, the problem with vaccines and why it has become politicized is that there’s too many people “talking” about it. Talk. Talk. Talk. But zero scientific discourse.

You're right that you're not the only one - this way of thinking is common, it's known as "fragile masculinity". As you've found, if you worry too much about people with very fragile masculinity, you won't be able to enjoy things you want to enjoy. I think it makes sense to just not worry about these people.
"a man" isn't defined by their 'attractivity' -- an entirely subjective thing.

https://danluu.com/ loads super-fast for some reason. I definitely noticed it. I bookmarked this blog partly because it loads so quickly.
I agree.

I gave a talk once on a piece of code I wrote and mentioned that an OSS library my project depended on lacked a feature. I wasn't so much complaining as just stating the fact that it didn't do X and it would be really awesome if it did X.

Afterwards one of the maintainers came up and asked me to make a bug report on Github. So I did.

I lack the expertise or time to implement this feature and the feature is still not implemented. But it's useful to have the feature request on Github because other people find and there are a few comments on it now.

Documenting stuff like this is important for maintainers. It's when the documentation turns into a form of harassment that people need to fuck off.

>So do screen resolutions
Maybe on phones but not on laptop. Resolutions went down after like 2009.

I have a 14+ year old laptop with a WUXGA (1920x1200) screen. That is similar to FHD but 16:10 not 16:9 so its a bit higher that FHD (which is the standard today).

Folks, b is bits, B is bytes. For someone who deals with IT/telecomm the careless use of bits, bytes, B, b, kB/s, kb/s, kbps, MiB/s, Gbit is a source of confusion, because all those abbreviations have a very specific and distinct meaning.

And whenever someone writes something not very obvious (eg Gbit for line speed, or kb for a size of a file or network transfer chunk), I need to figure out if they don't understand the terms they use, and I should use the more likely meaning, or they know what they're talking about and I assume they really meant what they'd written.
A great antidote to that line of thought is the saying:

"Imagine it backwards, a “White American” using this to sound “Indian”"
I'm white, I don't find this offensive at all, why would I? The only way I would is if I was looking for offense. If my job was calling people to make sales and they couldn't understand me I would leap at the chance to change my accent so they could. Sales is a commission based job, more sales by leveraging an available software tool means a better life for my family, especially if I am based in a third world economy.

If my options as a call center business owner are to 1) use foreign workers and lose customers due to the communication gap, 2) use foreign workers and leverage software to negate the communication gap or 3) use more expensive US based workers; how is it racist to acknowledge the facts on the ground and choose the second option? Your argument is that the call center operators should be forced to lose customers and business because not to do so is racist?

India is also a country, a guy of Indian descent from Britain sounds just like a white guy from Britain, same with people from Florida or NY. To conflate race and nationality is a flawed argument. What does 'White American' sound like? Do people from Alabama and NYC sound the same? If a black kid and a white kid are adopted as babies and raised in the same family they will sound the same. Accent is a regional thing, not a racial one.

Not everything is racist, stop trying to find things to be outraged about.

There's lots of visas that don't require degrees. One of the options could be something like https://www.gov.uk/start-up-visa if you can work for others by creating some kind of consulting service. Another would be to aim for corporations which are used to / have a good pipeline for sponsoring relocation+visa.

Otherwise you may want to try contacting - search for a place through an agent and specify full remote only.
Yup this is what I always say. Using modern conveniences doesn't equal laziness. There's a bunch of stuff that cars do for you automatically that you wouldn't call laziness for not doing it yourself: traction control, abs, power steering, using a choke to start the car etc. I lump changing gear into this bucket.

The main advantage of using Binaryen directly bypassing LLVM is firstly very fast codegen and optimization (Binaryen architecture perfectly utilizes multithreading as opposed to LLVM). In addition, clean and fast debug builds are not clogged with SSA and mSSA noise. That makes debug/release performance not more than 2-4x slower, unlike LLVM where this ratio is 20x-40x as already mentioned. The Binaryen optimizer is improving all the time. It is already better in many places than the same Go's codegen
If you can take some pictures of a known reference field then you can certainly get a significant improvement.

Many will justify it as we will be lucky to survive and grow to a point where a security incident will be a problem.

AppSec is never the most important thing on any product manager or product owners list. No one says AppSec isn't important, just other things are more important. Sometimes the best you can do is talk them into letting the people that care dedicate some of their time to fixing security issues. While it seems bad, if this is a product or company you care about, working to make it better makes sense. You also might consider adding security concerns into requirements, acceptance criteria, and code reviews (if you have those) to stop it from getting worse.

I don't tell people to write the code on their own or fork.

I think maintainer is a job. It's a volunteer job. Yes. I have allocated hours for this job. But I need to treat users as I would treat paying customers. That doesn't mean accepting their every whim. Never. But it does mean that the "job" is one of communication and community building. Not just of coding. OP seems a bit too focused on the code and too little on the people. To me the value of writing the code is the way people use it differently than I intended.
