It's not uncommon for new restaurant customers to see quick results and want to start texting more than once a week. Fortunately, we

a) know the short-sightedness in that
b) have a white glove experience where we have tight control over what gets texted and how frequently. The system automation is literally constrained to a weekly texting pace

Love the grouped offer suggestion. As a consumer that's more in line with my personal preferences. I think eventually this would be a nice feature in an effort to give the consumer power to customize their notification preferences.
While you're technically right, it's only in the same sense that any TC language can do anything any other TC language can -- you can theoretically always delay any computation behind a lambda, but the ergonomics have wide-ranging consequences. You also don't get any memoization that way -- without further runtime support.

There was a good Reddit thread recently where a lot of experts weighed in: https://www.reddit.com/r/haskell/comments/wpbs4z/what_things...

I recommend reading the thread -- lot's of great stuff in there, but...

TL;DR: It's a lot more complicated than it seems at first and it's far from obvious that strict-by-default is worth the cost.
Sorry, what "natural system" exactly are you talking about? The moon doesn't have one in the sense you mean.

I notice a lot of people operate on the unexamined assumption that there's life everywhere. This is a decent assumption for the Earth. It does not hold in space. There is no "environment" to mess up on the moon. It is already a radiation hellscape with no air, no water, and no life. It can't be turned into an ecological disaster, it already is one, of a scope beyond anything you can find on Earth. If you literally dumped a million tons of the worst radioactive waste on the moon, it would would not noticeably affect its characteristics.

If you value the ecosystems of Earth, get as much industry off of it as possible, into places where there is no "environment" to mess up.
Will war in Ukraine mark a new era for European defence research?
Time for another round of quantitative easing, easy money, the whole government bonds -> central banks -> private banks routine, perhaps? The banks can then extend loans to power users at low rates, so they can pay the higher energy fees?

Of course that's nonsense, but that's been the response of central banks to crises over the past decade (see Nomi Prins, Collusion). The problem is that there isn't enough physical gas to go around, and conjuring money out of a hat won't fix that problem.

The most obvious solution to Europe's energy woes is to build out energy systems that don't rely on any imports (uranium ore from Niger to feed French nuclear reactors is as much of a long-term supply problem as gas and oil from Russia or LNG tankers from the USA). That means solar/wind/storage has to become the dominant energy system, and that's the general trend:

https://ec.europa.eu/info/news/focus-renewable-energy-europe...

> "Solar panels and wind turbines are now a common sight across the EU, which in large part is due to increased market activity. The cost of solar power production has for instance decreased by 75% between 2009 and 2018, and in 2014, onshore wind became cheaper than coal, gas and nuclear. In 2019, EU power production from wind and solar power overtook coal for the first time – meaning that they have become as competitive, or even cheaper, than fossil fuels in most places."

Note that central banks could put their efforts towards renewable investment instead of private banking deals, which would speed this transition up...
MGNR | Senior (Quant) Developer | Full-time | Remote (worldwide)

MGNR is a small, highly successful proprietary trading firm. Our fully-automated trading system executes hundreds of thousands of transactions every day, totaling billions of dollars in volume. Our team (currently 10) is fully distributed across many timezones and came together over the past three years. Our tech stack is a microservice-based architecture hosted in the cloud (AWS), written primarily in Rust and some Python.

We are looking for a senior (quantitative) developer to take ownership of everything performance-related at the company. The role will consist of two aspects:

(i) War on latency: Use every trick in the playbook to improve the speed with which our system reacts to information. Optimize our software, hardware, and network topology to minimize our reaction time across all percentiles. Build the instrumentation necessary to monitor our system performance, identify bottlenecks, and squash them.

(ii) System Architecture: Design and implement robust trade gateway frameworks as we expand our trading to new venues and roll out new strategies.

Desired skillset: experience in a low-level programming language (ideally Rust), strong understanding of Unix and network protocols, a keen eye for benchmarking and tuning critical software services to achieve maximum performance, knowledge of exchange architectures, and a passion + understanding of the markets and trading

Competitive salary and bonus, flexible work hours, no customers to please, result-driven no-bullshit tight knit team, flat structure, no commute, lots to love.

They've been doing this forever, and this is a core concept in meetup

It doesn't require payment. It's free to any of your old members.
I think the problems are different. Men have a lot of trouble getting matches sure, and they think they have a rough time because of it. Women get matches, but the majority of the interest is low quality / aggressive / inappropriate and they spend a lot of time filtering, blacklisting, and otherwise getting burned out. Women spend as much time, if not more, wading through dross trying to find good matches: and are also at a significant safety disadvantage in the process.

The net result is that neither men or women match easily, in many cases it's a tragedy of the commons. Even on the "app that reverses the roles" it's difficult to match to likely partners for either gender.
They have been doing this since at least 2009, which turned me off on using the site for organizing. My advice is to strip out everything that belongs to you or you paid for if you are uncomfortable with a stranger using your previous efforts without input from you.
I distinctly remember learning the US states based on a map which had the states in different colors. To this day, Missouri is clearly yellow, California is orange, etc.

It’s not economics - it’s a mandate.

It’s the other way around. California is the biggest car market on the planet. All car makers target California (and to some extent Texas), so whatever California will buy, carmakers will build. And since California has outlawed gas cars by 2035, auto makers have declared they will stop making them by 2035.
The apps are garbage. The old okcupid was the best of them, but still not great, and it's ruined now (also, everyone has moved on to other apps that are worse). They're designed to maximize revenue rather than the happiness of the user. You also have to put in a shitload of work to make a slick profile, an in a lot of people's cases it's well worded bullshit.

Profiles should be homogenous in form and style, and should include video Q/A in a fixed format so WYSIWYG. No clever bullshit, no editing images, just videos of your average self answering question.

N=1 my friend did very well on Tinder as what I would consider below average in looks.
"but nowadays people can just pull out their phones and record for (presumably) their sexual gratification later."

As someone who grew up as a teen without a phone, I can say that mental pictures can be enjoyed (even without ogling), and it was very common.

I agree that the second paragraph is likely. Although if the girls are acting more like pornstars, wouldn't that make nudity less of an issue (or more normalized) even with a sexualizing audience?
Interesting thought experiment - for the same capacity, we’d need 2300 sq.mi of photovoltaic gross land[1], assuming we need to way overbuild let’s make that 3x (6900 sq. mi). That’s equivalent to ~15% of Mojave desert being covered in solar and not accounting for battery storage needed.

That same capacity would require 26 Diablo canyon equivalent stations or only 30.5 sq.mi. [2]

Of course, Greater Los Angeles area itself is 33,954 sq.mi, so if we assume 10% of that are roofs, parking lots and other structures that can be covered with a solar panel setup somehow (big assumption, but this is a thought experiment after all), we’d have close to 1/2 of the total already covered. Add other populated areas in CA and things don’t look so outlandish with some combination of Nuclear/storage/solar.

The big question is whether we have the social cohesion to pull this off or not. The train from LA to SF mess has me worried here…

Inflation to kill growth prospects for smartphone sales
This situation is infuriating to me as a Swede. We use basically no natural gas or oil for heating or power production, and right now we're exporting 3.8 GW to other countries, showing that we have a power surplus equaling several nuclear reactors. A few days ago I heard that we where the largest power exporter in Europe.

Even so, our power prices are through the roof because the price is set by the high export prices. We're paying approximately 5X-10X what we're used to because of the extremely poor energy policies in other countries. Nevermind being dependent on Russia, which has been a terror state killing politicians and journalists for decades, they should have invested heavily in energy efficiency and switching from fossil fuels years ago. Now we're paying the price for their idiocy.

Not that our government is perfect either, they've given large US companies like Microsoft and Amazon tax cuts on power to get them to build datacenters.
Three things:

1. You don't know what privacy is. "We believe that Kagi has the most user-friendly privacy policy of any search engine out there. However, privacy and anonymity are not the same things. For example your parents can know everything about you and still fully respect your privacy." Ask any kid if privacy is their parents knowing everything. You're using it as a marketing term.

2. This is illegal public solicitation and an SEC violation: "anyone passionate about Kagi and our vision for the web will have the opportunity to invest as little as $5,000 USD and join the ride with us. It would be structured as a SAFE note and we would use the funds to expand the team and accelerate our product vision."

3. Stop abusing HN to shill your paid search engine. "We are pleased to see that Kagi is propagating fast through Hacker News, Reddit and Twitter with word of mouth from existing users." Kagi shills hijack every single Hn discussion thread about search. You is just as bad. Just. Stop.
Depends on the company. Where I work, the answer is yes. Work/life balance is heavily stressed, which has been a surprise. However, when I started my career, it was with the expectation that staying up to date with technology would require some personal time. I don't personally know anyone that didn't start a technical career without that expectation.
It's not really unsustainable - Switzerland and other wealthy microstates show us the long-term outcome, which is quite desirable. In fact, the "ordinary people" will eventually benefit the most, since their wages will grow to match the prevalent cost of living. Transition can of course be difficult.
I'm sure, it's also slightly worse then uBlock Origin for Chrome. But it works well enough and the fact that Safari isn't run by Google by far outweighs any other drawbacks it might have.
People who "don't know what they're doing" will just disable SELinux if it's too difficult to configure the policy that they want. It's better to make security policies easy to configure correctly so that more people do it correctly.

Also, what does "third party" really mean in this context? I am neither the author of the Linux distro that I'm using nor the web server that I want to use. It's all third party software from my point of view.
FWIW, the Chinese people I know overall supported the anti-covid measures and now support the zero covid policy. Not universally and most have some complaints about local implementation details, but ultimately that's what the dialectic between national and local democracy ends up with.
Between the cherry-picking and the strawmanning this post is worth little.
This is not a critique based on data or reality, it's vague smears.

California's grid problems are not from "green energy" and it's frankly ridiculous to even say something like that. California's grid problems are from not planning for massive generation increases to match an unprecedented heat wave.

It's not from natural gas plants not being properly weatherized, it's not because "green energy" can't do something, it's 100% from not building enough generation.

Politics is too often a way to turn off our brains and avoid critical thinking. And in this case, as it is also in evaluating Texas's failure, partisan politics and "green energy" only obscures truth rather than revealing truth.
I hope Portugal won't tackle it like my country, with a cap on rent and other market distortions. I think that only makes it worse.

Fun fact: I - as a single - live in a way too big, luxurious and expensive apartment because of this. I rented it, when I was still working for the man and was making a killing. Now I live a much more modest 4-hour-workweek life. It would be better for me to move to an apartment half the size. Then a big family could live here nicely. But no way. No landlord in Germany rents to a freelancer who enjoys a "I'm mainly slacking off for a while" lifestyle.
In that case it’s a moot point, but on the other hand we have had so many past examples of community “owners” shutting down their community out of spite. The community needs to be able to control their own destiny with or without the founder.
I recommend taking up swing dancing if that's not already the style you're doing (Lindy Hop is great to start with).

The majority of swing dance socials will have very low levels of intoxication (because everyone is there to dance!), and it is a social atmosphere where it is expected and encouraged to introduce yourself to strangers and ask them to dance. If you are a man (or dance the lead role), don't worry about not being able to do so much fancy stuff while you're dancing. Often, experienced followers are perfectly happy to try out individual stylistic variations while the leader holds a nice steady basic.

I'd recommend going with the intention of trying to expand your social circle, and seeing where you end up!

Its unconstitutional and needs to be challenged on a state by state level. In Georgia the state was sued because Abby Martin (a famous critic of Israel) was barred from speaking at a University unless she signed a pledge not to boycott. The state lost but basically changed the law to raise the monetary amount that would trigger the requirement. All these BS laws were pushed quietly by local groups and now it is a uphill battle to challenge them and get them removed. I wish your organization would challenge the law instead of just letting this wrong continue to erode what little freedoms we have left.

Same thing is happening in the culture wars. The nutjobs are slowly getting elected onto school boards and other local positions so they can start adding prayer/ban civil rights related content/remove any references to CRT.

I agree that's not what is meant by 'data' in the industry and I'm challenging that a little bit. However, even if we use the industry definition, what you're saying is hyperbole. Every company uses both data and experience to varying degrees. People get hung up when they think the balance isn't appropriate - not surprisingly, that happens when one or the other doesn't support their opinion. I'd rather be in a position of defending my opinion with data. It's already been quoted but... "If we have data, let's look at data. If all we have are opinions, let's go with mine."
A flutter web app is also a PWA. There’s nothing DOM specific about a PWA.
Dating apps do suck, and they likely always will, because they have little incentive to help their users find a long-term partner. Dating apps are "rape-whistle" companies, meaning that if they actually solve the problems that they claim to solve, they would diminish their market.

If a given app has been snatched up by Match, it's almost certainly being optimized towards having you addicted to swiping.
One of the most important differences is that Colossus and GFS are user-space filesystems for the client. You're just making RPCs to a service. There is no kernel filesystem. Upgrading the client and the server is just software upgrade, no kernel changes. And the operations were intentionally restricted- for example, instead of the debacle that is locking in NFS, locking is part of a different (and even more fundamental) tech at Google (chubby, which is NOT a filesystem, or so they say).
That's sad because grant panels approve based on political and personal relationships, not the content of the grant. Lol this is like complaining about mafia talking about cannoli....

This is an update to a story that appeared last year. I searched and didn't find this update. I'm on the bus, but I will type up my thoungts in a bit.
I guess every piece of knowledge could be considered memory.

But I can see a difference between memorising the stripes on street furniture or which countries streetview has visited for the sake of playing such games and just knowing which direction the sun is to narrow down the hemisphere or having a little understanding of how the environment varies with latitude.
They only banned ones that don't have NOx emissions controls and that are are easily replaced with portable batteries. Here is the text of the bill:

https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtm...

My reading suggests that this won't impact anything that you should consider plugging your house into. Instead, it's targeting stuff like this:

https://www.harborfreight.com/generators-engines/generators/...

However, that model is twice as expensive as the one harbor freight was selling before the bill passed. The old one wasn't an inverter, so the frequency / voltage would drift around when the load changed, and couldn't be used with computers (or modern appliances). It wouldn't surprise me if they slapped a catalytic converter on it while they were upgrading the electronics.
> how else do you grow a language for 40 years?

You could introduce things in one version of the standard, and then remove them in the next release if people didn't like it, such that to get the feature you have to specifically use --std=2022a, no earlier, no later; and if you want your project to track the evolution of the language rather than getting stuck on a particular version, you'd have to rip use of such features back out.

You could sort of think of it as if you had a dependencies lockfile which includes a version-constraint on the major version of the compiler; where every time there's a change in what code is accepted, that major version of the compiler goes up. Any change other than changing what code is accepted as valid goes into the lower semver fields; and gets replicated across all major versions of the compiler, where relevant. (Except that you don't have to do this by actually maintaining separate major-version branches of the compiler for every standards release; you can do it the way we currently do feature flags, only the only flag you get is which standard-version your project is written for.)

I don't think I've ever seen anyone actually do this for a language/compiler; but it's a common approach used for protocol and API-client libraries, and seems to work well there.
I really like how listicles are compartmentalized to one section of the results, instead of taking over the entire page.
