I'm pretty sure I've heard someone in the Kernighan/Ritchie/Thompson camp (i.e guys who actually worked on the C Language) pronounce it like "care" in interviews before, so I'm not sure Stallman's pronunciation is really authoritative here. It really depends on whether you read it as its own word (like to "char" the grilled meat), or whether you read it as the first half of "character".
Well your passive aggression has me even less convinced in your honesty, this isn't my first rodeo, I'm not gonna blindly trust random testimony without evidence. I genuinely fail to see how kiwi-farms is worse than Twitter or any other social media site for that matter.
Trivia note: there are certain words that only appear in headlines. Like "brace" to mean "prepare." (Although I think that one might occasionally show up in normal text.)

What else? "eye" as a verb. ("Supervisors eye relaxing building codes")

Well, Xenophon and 10000 other Greeks found themselves deep into enemy territory, without supplies [1]. Somehow they managed to survive. They took some food by force, but mostly they used diplomacy and negotiation. Diplomacy is fairly effective when you have lots of weapons.

I haven't used it, and last time I heard of it, it was still called bitwarden_rs. I like the project in principle since it capitalizes on BW's open API, and that's really good work in the spirit of open-source software.

Having said that: I haven't dug into it much. I don't know what the current state of auditing on it is, or how widespread adoption is relative to the mainline BW backend. I hope they use a database backend other than BW's default MSSQL, which has always seemed like a weird choice to me coming from mostly Linux, and so mostly Postgres and Maria/MySQL, though I skew heavily developer over DBA, and that distinction may as well be personal preference (as in, I don't have an intelligent reason to dislike MSSQL beyond my habit of using other things).
I think if people were given the choice - particularly somewhere like San Francisco - they'd would much prefer to live in an apartment they could reasonably afford vs a detached home they could only afford if they travelled back in time 30+ years.
From a worldwide angle, what matters is whether this will spread or not... anyone with information?
Direct3D used to flip the x87 FPU to single precision mode by default. This produced some amazing bugs when your other C libraries reasonably assumed that a double would be at least 64 bits. (The FPU mode settings affected the thread that called Direct3D, and most programs used to be single-threaded.)

It seems they changed this behavior in Direct3D 10:

Good. Maybe now they can finally get around to fixing some of the rough edges for enterprisey customers. Onboarding new users is a pain. The audit UI is a pain. There is (still!) no way to share a password with another user within the same organization (except by creating a Collection and granting access to that, that's not what you want when you're creating an email account for a user and want to give them their initial password).

That, and their UI is pretty cluttered and ugly, though the latter is subjective.

There's a second tyranny, though: momentum change rises linearly with exhaust velocity, while energy expended rises quadratically.

No engine is 100% efficient, so the spacecraft has to deal with quadratically more waste heat as "efficiency" (exhaust speed) rises.
Then the pendulum will swing back towards hybrid, people will drift towards in-person-first companies such as Apple, and trends will shift again. Perhaps owners and management will get smart and try to woo workers with personal offices instead of the open office default.

What you're describing won't last forever, either.
You guys are missing the point. Either you believe some unknown variable has zero probability or even if it is small you think ifs not worth discovering, for an event that is the most important since ww2. Is there proof of zero probability? No.
What about residential? I thought prices were high but manageable. New mortgages are all over 5% now, that makes those all too common $2-4 mil house prices insane.
Building codes already require operable windows, and some local codes now require active ventilation systems.
>>Are you're saying that unless other folks make as much money as you do, they should not be treated with simple human respect, because doing so points up the inequality in our society?

>Are you putting words in my mouth?

No. Note the question mark at the end of the sentence. That means (as apparently you are unaware) it's a question, not a statement.

That was the impression I got from your comment. Apparently, I misunderstood your point (and if so, I'm not sure what your point was. Perhaps you could elucidate?). My apologies.

>Being kind to folks is basic knowledge. Everyone knows it. The article is obvious. It's not telling anyone anything new. Why was such an obvious article written? For what purpose. Certainly not to teach engineers to be nice to poor people. That's obvious... no need to teach them.

It should be basic, but it isn't. And more's the pity.

I didn't read (nor do I intend to) the article.

I have no idea why an article I didn't write (or read, for that matter) was written. Perhaps that's something you might ask the author.

>It was written to make you feel better about yourself and your relative position to the people you step on everyday when they clean your toilet because you can't clean it yourself.

If you say so. But as I didn't read the article, it doesn't make me feel anything.

I'd add that I'm kind and polite to people not because they have something I want, but because I respect other humans and myself.

>>I'm not telling you what to do, think or say, but I hope i never meet you.

>How ironic. Being kind is basic knowledge. Yet you say something like this while purporting to be kind... even though it's quite obvious we are unlikely to ever meet. Why waste energy to say something we both know? Why did you say something so obvious?

Because your comment appeared to not only demean those who clean up after you, but also to beat up on others because you think that being kind to such folks isn't sincere.

It's been my experience (I'm more than half a century old) that when folks ascribe motivations to other people, that reflects the motivations of the speaker rather than the recipient.

As such, I can only assume that you feel that way. I don't want to interact with folks like that. Hence my statement.

I didn't say that to be mean, as I have no interest or stake in your personal emotional state.

Rather, I said it because I don't want to be around folks who present themselves as the only arbiters of other peoples' motivations and feelings.

>You said it to be mean. While pretending not to be mean. Why? Because it makes you feel better.

Your assertion doesn't make it true. I don't need to make others feel bad (or have others make me feel good) to feel good about myself.

I try to live my life as a decent, kind person. I don't always succeed, but I do my best. And that's enough for me.
As someone perpetually looking through this window from the outside, my gut instinct is that I want a model that's a more pessimistic version of the Erlang model. Mostly around assuming that not all processes are good guys (more opinionated and less generous supervisor), and back pressure for mailboxes, instead of having to roll your own cooperative overlay.

I would not be surprised if the latter in particular introduces scalability issues due to making asymmetric communications more symmetric, but if people are having to introduce their own wheels, it may be better if the system provided it instead.

He has spelled it out before--he believes that Ukrainians are really Russians, and therefore Ukraine should not exist as a separate country because why divide a nation in two.
People do this, e.g. building a cost-based optimizer for queries, but it can take over 2 years for it to really get pretty good. And even then it can only go so far and you'll still want to manually tune certain queries.
> If you ask Zuckerberg, it's VR.

VR needs a killer app.

The problem is, Zuck thinks it's going to be essentially VRChat, but that won't be it.

It won't be any sort of virtual office either, as the resolution still isn't good enough. Also, I can't imagine someone that does most of their work using a keyboard would actually want to do their work in VR, especially if doing anything in VR still requires a controller.

There are a lot of really good games, but VR gaming is still very niche, even among people that play a lot of games.
Does your particular card offer credit as a feature? This is how some of the US cards are, they sort of position the credit feature more like an "option" compared to what other issuers do. Because it is offered at all, it is a credit card, even if you pay the full balance normally.

FWIW, all the cards I see on their French site are described as:

It gives people a false sense of connection. How much oxygen does a small tree produce, over what period of time, what species of tree?

Thanks, appreciate the questions!

- On obtaining it: so the product is in testnet currently, so acquiring these test assets is just a matter of requesting it: see https://sov0.org/. Conveniently, we're also running a sweepstakes with a $100k USD prize where the entry procedure is just to ask for some testnet assets.

- Once we launch into production, our intent is to distribute the assets freely over the first few years to users who help sustain the network, in a process roughly analogous to block rewards in PoS/PoW. We won't be selling the assets to a general audience, and our goal in general is to sell as little as possible to fund operating costs.

- On value being related to utilization: right, so our view is to make the analogy with gold. Essentially, if/once there's coordination around SoV0, there will be markets for transacting the asset. Building something that can be directly utilized for purchases would require building a currency, which we're not sure is possible to do in an elegant self-perpetuating way (and which we're not attempting to do here). So yes, "fees" in our context refers to fees internal to the system, and transactions with the outside world are beyond SoV0's ability to control.

It's not prohibitively expensive... office to residential conversions have already been done in many cases.

Of course the specifics of the building matter a lot, but it's certainly cheaper than ground up net new development.

And even if the conversion leads to abnormal units per modern standards, it will still get occupied at the right price.

Seems a no brainer to rezone most office space to residential. Free market will figure it out. You can bet buying these commercial properties at firesale prices will open up a profitable path to residential
There is the instinct that must be contended against with all our might: Removing choice.

"Make" everyone live in an apartment, because they shouldn't have the choice. "Make" everyone give up their personal transportation (mobility). "Make" everyone switch to solar or geothermal.

Substitute "make" with "force" and you'll have the correct understanding of what kind of government mechanisms we'd be empowering to achieve these ends. Removing choice is the wrong instinct.

Working to price external costs in, so they get factored in to choices, can sway the choices, but you're not forcing people, or making a way for one group of people to force some other group of people to certain actions.
I think it was a typo for scrooging which is a common enough word for being cheap(USA) / tight (uk).
Out of curiosity, why so many rotations away (and back to) BW? Most people I know stick with a single password manager almost permanently, or at least unless their manager has some kind of earth-shattering vuln announced that just shakes their trust enough to move.
It won't even operate at -30F though.

In fact it won't even operate below 0F, so it's just not going to work regardless of the COP above that. As nightly temps are below 0F all the time.

This is a labour union issue and not a prop 13 or even a NIMBY issue.

https://sfstandard.com/housing-development/labor-unions-have...

Those commenting here don’t understand how labour unions in CA have the Senate and Assembly by the balls.

As long as the public keeps focusing on imaginary enemies amongst themselves and we keep lobbing ‘prop 13’and ‘nimby’ balls at each other, we lose.

Nobody here on HN is going to be able to live in the new high density housing. It is meant for affordable housing and to move vote banks from other counties. Oldest universal political trick from the books to stay in power.

Who benefits from high density subsidized housing homes for those who can’t afford living in the most expensive cities in the state? How is it helping the homeless or the economically vulnerable? Who is being served here?

There is a bigger picture. There are more powerful forces. They just want the voters fighting amongst ourselves while they decide our fate.

I am very over getting together in people’s open plan kitchen + living/family/dining room homes and being unable to have a conversation because 10 people’s voices are bouncing around one room with 10ft ceilings when there is enough space for 2 or even 3 separate rooms. And the TV volume is on for some reason. And the exhaust above the stove is on. And the kitchen faucet is running.
The two lineages are literally just two SNPs apart. SARS-CoV-2 averages ~1/3 of an SNP per human-to-human transition, so ~1/9 of such transmissions generate "two lineages" at least that different. So intuitively, it seems easy to believe those lineages could have evolved in just a few weeks of early cryptic (unsampled) human spread.

Pekar et al. did some complicated modeling that purports to establish that the MRCA in humans is so recent that the two lineages must have arisen in animals, implying two introductions into humans. I believe that's highly suspect though, per my explanation and links at

These kinds of storms happen rarely if ever happen in the winter and they typically happen in the spring and summer so I’m not sure how this presents much of an issue for heating. They seem to impact rural areas much worse though.
One of the worst things to come out of the increasing popularity of reality television combined with the rise of internet video services is parents essentially pimping out their kids online as if they're a product. It's a form of child abuse and shouldn't be allowed.
Thanks!

We're built atop AWS at the moment, but we're designed in a way that's friendly to cloud-agnostic / private-VPC usage down the road if that becomes critical.

For now, we're focused on public API endpoints in which we shard data across different "workspaces" in the background. Each workspace is a combination of stateful data (relations, vectors, binary), infrastructure (models), and plugins (connections to other services).

When you import & use a Steamship Package, you pass it an identifier that binds it to the particular workspace you want to operate out of.
Boston is recovering quite well, as biotech, healthcare, and education need physically present people (for now at least). SF was so insanely focused on tech that it collapsed quite suddenly.

“There was a statistician that drowned crossing a river... It was 3 feet deep on average.”

I think we’re going to see a lot of new things this recession. The high inflation preventing ‘quantitive easing’. Usually the middle class can bear all kinds of hardships but from my observations they’re reaching a point where they’re tapped out and can bear no more. Many landlords think they’ll simply raise rents to cover increases in interest rates because renters are less able to buy their own property due to the same high rates. But tapped out renters cannot afford the higher rents for long and landlords will have to take a bath. If we go into a reverse wealth effect deflationary spiral we can’t lower interest rates to get out of it due to the risk component of interest will start to dominate over the risk free rate.
That sounds... reasonable. There are some web-to-newsletter services that try to sell this feature.
I agree that it is unwise to blanket-reject any humanities major. But I'm at a loss for what legal reasons you are referring to (IAAL). Although political party/activity is a protected attribute in some states, I don't think college major is protected anywhere. I can't imagine that it could be protected, since nearly every employer filters applicants based on major for at least some jobs.

The only argument I could imagine is that major is a proxy for political belief, and that using it as a pretense is illegal. This would be pretty tough to prove, especially since many people who major in STEM disciplines are politically aligned with humanities majors.

What am I missing here?
(disclaimer: Microsoft Employee, this is my opinion).

I've been using KQL for a long time, it really is a nice language both for querying and maintaining the data.

But, aside from fixing some serious language issues with SQL, I really enjoy the wide range of supported scenarios. You can use KQL to query a SQL database [1], you can use python [2], do all kinds of time-series analysis [3][4], do distinct counts on various fields without too much explicit query-authoring [5].

My main beef with Azure Data Explorer (which, as I understand it, is the engine that handles the query execution) is the price... I wish it was easy for hobbyist developers to launch and try out.

"but if all it takes is getting on some calls every week to close deals, why can’t I do this on the side for some extra cash?”"

If you are working full time already, how will you find time during the day to do these calls on the side unless you work remotely and are doing it on your current employer's time ? Sales calls do not happen after 5 PM or weekends so you will have to juggle. What if you have a meeting set at the same time ?

Also, it takes more than just a few calls to close deals. You have to follow up, you have to engage with stakeholders from the client's side, may be do another meeting etc. It depends on the product you are selling and the sales cycle. You cannot just wing the sales calls.

The events in and around 2014 are really important. Did Ukraine revive its NATO membership ambitions because of Russian actions or did Russia act in response to new NATO membership ambitions?

When I first researched this after the invasion started, I arrived at Russia reacting but I am open to being proven wrong.
Then put restrictions on it - pass a law that allows you to convert commercial to residential during X number of years and for that converted commercial to have slightly laxer requirements than standard residential housing. Don't allow new residential construction to skirt the regulations and put a time limit on the law to keep property developers from simply building commercial with the off-chance of being able to convert it to residential if the market for commercial real estate doesn't rebound.
