We should ban new golf courses, and reclaim 90% of all golf courses completely. It's a game that uses a ridiculous amount of resources that benefits very little. I'd rather see housing built on existing golf courses.
Often the person leaving has not been that good of a contributor due to wanting to leave, while a replacement is new and likely more inclined to work hard.

On a big team, people fit a bell curve, and most likely those leaving are not going to cause much harm (otherwise no big project would get done - all have people coming and going over the lifespan of the codebase).
The only time I ever use them is when I’m making notes about something and realize that there are a lot of cross references. Helps to see them.

The air brakes used on heavy vehicles (semi trucks, etc) have a very simple fail-safe. You need power to not brake. I.E. Air pressure is used to disengage the brakes. If you lose power/air pressure, the brakes engage and are stuck engaged.

In Europe we have water based heating system, be it radiator or floor heating. That changes the equation quite a bit, and also impact what type of heat pump you can install (low temp or mid temp).

The best is to have a hybrid system: a heat pump and a gas/oil/wood boiler which will fire up when it is freezing.
Changing the visible display name frequently is a significant part of Twitter culture. In a few weeks, tons of people will change their name to a “spooky” version for Halloween, for example. It’s not a feature Twitter will kill just because of a few scammers.

As someone forced to move away from the bay area because of housing costs, as soon as housing comes down many of us expats (who have been able to build a sizable nest egg by NOT living in the bay area) will also compete to return.

You can just buy one. You're allowed to change your name, profile, picture without losing the blue check. So if you buy (or steal) an existing account you can just update it to whatever you want and keep the check.
Ok, lets go with your example. Car title. Or a house title.

Just where exactly the title itself is stored? I would assume it's a at least moderately long plaintext file, describing property and conditions. Maybe some authenticity attributes, like digital signatures of multiple parties. Where do you think is this artifact located? Inside the NFT?
On a side note, never let past salaries dictate your salary negotiation. Always stand your ground, and sell your pricetag. Your past low salary or lack of successful negotiation, does not warrant them a discount.
Negotiators always try to talk down your value, even when you're already paid high. You need to own your pricetag.
> If limited time is a problem, schedule more time.

I'm not sure how realistic that suggestion is. The pool of university applicants is large, the academics' time is short. If you're going to have multiple interviews over multiple days that just throws up even more barriers to entry to those whose parents can't afford travel and accomodation for that.

At a broader level, if one can't distinguish between "good" and "not good" in one interview, perhaps one isn't asking the right questions?

I believe you have a right to "freeze" your work number profile so that they cannot share your past employment and salary information, at least if you live in California.

>Because people were lazy when they started and they're too lazy to port it over now

Some of these communities are older than Discord but somehow they were lazy. It simply can't be because Discord/Slack are better tools. The implication that there are communities working on database internals using Discord, but they are too dumb to standup Discourse is astounding.
Well, money is the biggest use-case of it all. If you don't care about inflation (solved via decentralization), then there's the use-case of verifyably programmable money (ethereum)

Another one that I find fascinating is immutability, things like https://opentimestamps.org/ (uses bitcoin's blockchain), it allows you to proof that X piece of information existed prior to time Y.

I know of 2 different paths of assumptions you need to verify that proof:

1. Somewhat trusting bitcoin block's timestamps and the immutability that proof of work provides to the chain of blocks

2. Having a higher bound estimate of your attacker's ability to generate proof of work, and then sum all the available proof of work (it is sequentially chained in the blockchain from the block's proof, till the latest block produced), and compute how much time the attacker needed to spend to fake that proof of work, and that's your proof of the minimum time that must have passed since X was conceived

Just What Is It That Makes Today’s Homes So Different, So Appealing? (1956)
I use an app called Giraf, which I built [0]. My friends and I use it to share the music (and culture in other mediums, e.g. books and movies) that we've been into lately. When something looks interesting, I can save it and it'll be added to a playlist in my Spotify account. I've found that this async format unlocks a lot of discovery that wouldn't have happened otherwise, because the recommendations wouldn't have risen to the level of sending them directly to each other in a text message.

I've worked on this for a few years now, and haven't really shared it on HN before. Any feedback is very welcome!

Nope. I sometimes use rose motifs. I've got some hopeful images of friendly clasped hands surrounded by flowers that say things like "we win through ecosocialism".

I'm not opposed to hammer and sickle stuff, but I don't own any.
Stopping development doesn't really 'keep the city as it is', though. There will continue to be greater demand, which will make rents higher, which will create more poverty.

Personally, advertise yourself with the stench of manure and expect horseflies.
> what particularly made you angry about it

There were lots of things all pointing to essentially the same issue; the fact "we" (I'm American) _KNEW_ that it was almost certainly unwinnable and kept it going despite all the facts and just kept throwing young people at the problem.

And partially because it was my country doing it. The lack of transparency and outright lying. It's something I need to just get over I guess; it's what gov'ts do.
"I had done all of this work myself"

And yet you're blaming LA County for this. Civil engineering work is required to be done by engineers. There are rules and procedures that must be followed. That's the law pretty much everywhere you have nearby neighbors; if you don't like those laws go out to the boonies and you can build whatever you want, however you want. But if you're going to try to build something that might affect other people you need to follow the rules.

An architect friend of mine told me those footings can support a four-story building.

Your architect friend would be wrong on that...For point of comparison, the average concrete foundation is 200 lb/square foot, or about 480,000 for a 1-story 2,400 square foot house (see https://archive.seattletimes.com/archive/?date=20041219&slug... estimating the foundation for the garage of a single-level home at approximately 30,000 lb). That's why engineers are required to review the work. Because self-styled architects are constantly messing up on the math and physics.

EDIT: numbers and math come from the linked article.
> There is nothing contradictory about wanting to solve homelessness and wanting them out of your neighborhood

Yes there is. If you want them housed, but not in your neighborhood, then you either want them out in a forest somewhere, or you want them in someone else's neighborhood. The former isn't actually housing them, and the latter is the contradiction.
It was 3% as long as you were part of the conspirator and make it extra painful to everybody else. What the conspirators wanted out of this was to control the number of players so they could limit supply and control rates. Paying people to do nothing while you wait for the permits is how you bankrupt small contractors.
No problem: add a second line with the verified name, or put the verified name in hover text if it differs from the display name. The verified name could still be a pseudonym, but it couldn't change without going through the verification process again.

Also, anyone willing to go through the verification process should get a blue check. Right now it's dependent on some Twitter insider liking the account holder (the insanely bullshit "Notable" requirement).

Historically and for most people, pies were baked as a way to stretch foodstuffs. "Sugars" were added to make meat and other ingredients that turn sooner more palatable. Lots of baking before refrigeration was done with an eye toward food preservation.

Sugar as a fungible and fiber-free isolated ingredient made dessert baking more economical and of course we love sugar naturally so demand skyrocketed. The Caribbean slave trade and the decades of indentured servitude that followed was really pushed by new high demand for sugars. Pies got sweeter and more decadent. People aren't today baking turtle or rabbit into their pies with a few dried apples for flavor. They're wrapping syrupy fruit in fat and flour -- or in some cases just making pies with sugar fluff alone.

Grandma herself is generations removed from the original rationale for pie and we're even more so. You're right, pie is a blight today despite being oh-so-nostalgic. You don't need to seek out something so obviously sickly sweet as grandma's cherry pie to find issue though. Pasta sauce, bread and even processed meat contain far more sugar than at any time in history. Fruits and vegetables are even sweeter due to our crop selection and our meat contains more fat per gram of protein because of our farming methodology.

Just by eating an ordinary American lunch today, we probably take in in something more nutritionally similar to our former generation's special weekly indulgence than their evening meal; literal pie is just the cherry on top.

Migrant death data is relatively hard to pin down, and is spread across a number of different datasets. Some government, some by NGOs. To better understand the scope of the tragedy, I put together a few map visualizations based on data aggregated from The Missing Migrants Project and combined it with data from the Arizona OpenGIS initiative for Deceased Migrants.
While this isn't fully comprehensive, it does give a visual understanding of the scope of this tragedy over the last few years. I was particularly shocked by the prevalence of Drowning while crossing the Rio Grande. Absolutely horrible.

If anyone knows of additional reputable datasets for migrant deaths, I'd love to improve the thoroughness of these visualizations. It's frustrating this data isn't as transparent or centralized as it should be.
Nyquist Shannon theorem, sure. There are situations where you'd use 32bit audio but not for mastered music you'd listen to at home really. Although people still won't believe you, hence the market for thousand dollar cables and other snake oil.
Lots of great advice here along the lines of "is it really worth your time and energy", but if you really want to tackle it don't focus on the hardware, focus on the existing (proprietary) software, and wrap it with your own libraries to observe and record inputs and outputs.

lp myfile -> input-wrapper -> proprietary-library -> system-library -> printer
| |
---------floss-library---------

As the existing driver is 32-bit there are two options for debugging on a x86_64 platform:

1. A 32-bit virtual-machine install with the printer connected via USB pass-through so the existing driver correctly operates the printer

2. As someone else said, use qemu-system-i386 with a 32-bit chroot minimal install

Look at the source-code of the binary package containing the driver. Identify the proprietary binary blobs (most likely shared libraries) that are included.

Use tools like objdump to identify the names of external functions they import from system libraries (which they'll call), and the functions they export for other tools to call into.

Create basic wrapper libraries with the same names as the system libraries that export the same function names and signatures as the system library.

Have those functions in your wrapper libraries call the same functions in the system libraries and pass through the arguments untouched BUT also have your wrapper functions log/dump/record the function and arguments being passed.

In the same way create wrapper libraries that have the same name as the proprietary blob libraries and export the same functions. Have these functions call into the proprietary libraries and pass arguments untouched, and log/dump/record in the same way.

Use LD_LIBRARY_PATH to have your wrapper libraries loaded and used by the tool used to print - I'd recommend using something basic like "lp".

Do basic text printing to begin with and observe what the proprietary libraries output to the printer in response.

You'll likely see control codes to configure the printer and then possibly the actual ASCII codes of the text unless the driver converts everything to bitmaps before sending. Even then, by printing one character at a time it is usually possibly to determine the data format of bitmaps and the positioning data.

Compare with existing open-source drivers for similar devices from the same manufacturer since there is likely to be a lot of overlap and shared technology/code.

Once you think you've got a handle on it have your wrapper library that pretends to be the proprietary library bypass the proprietary library and directly format and send the data to the system libraries.

As you figure out more of the data format put that into your replacement FLOSS library until the proprietary is no longer required. At that point you can build the FLOSS library for 64-bit and upstream it for everyone to enjoy.

Or just buy a replacement printer that is well supported already!
Most people were unaware/indifferent, and a nonnegligible number thought it was cool/alright, and tens of thousands openly showed up for it, untold numbers directly/indirectly supported it- undoubtedly some never stopped.

>I hate discord with a passion because I don't want to be data mined by some corporate walled garden.

So your disdain for discord has nothing to do with user experience, ease of use, UI, or anything else someone might consider when actually using the product, but it has to do with the ethics of the hosting company.

I can say I hate Porsche because they benefitted from Nazi regime and I will never drive one for that reason, but I'm not going to try to assert that the Ford Pinto is a better car than the 911.
Interesting site, although once you go deeper than the front page it's in Swedish.
From the literature on bugs, even this specific bug is common far beyond "C and Google code".

And, if you really want to restrict to your goalpost moving subset, then go ahead and demonstrate that the above general trends are not trends in your subset. Because the literature on it disagrees with you.

So, to defend your claim "The mistake is thinking everybody else is in it too", care to show where "everybody else" is free from these bugs?

It hits the corner, it's just really rare. If there are 500 possible pixel positions when it hits the edge, then it's only going to hit the corner exactly on 0.2% of bounces.
I make no moral claim because I don't see a moral axis here. It's equivalent to arguing about the morality of cigarette companies or breweries; our societal precedent for freedom overrides whatever personal harm it might cause. Same goes for selling knives, guns, porno films or sex toys. We can obviously regulate the obscene and dangerous conduct surrounding these things (and we do), but the right to having them is what drives our free market. It's no more exploitative than Apple teasing you with an iPhone 14 event, getting you tech-horny enough to open your wallet come October.

Yeah, I'm no lawyer, but there are many many cases of court orders leading what would otherwise be monumentally long legislative actions. Slavery, voting rights, eminent domain, asset forfeiture, and tons of others.

Housing isn't in the bill of rights directly, but equal protection is.

Basically, SF housing comes down to a battle of:

- I have a right to defend my housing equity/wealth (currently winning and will continue to win legislatively because the money is here)

- I have a right to a house (the moral choice, but far and away the less-monied, and therefore zero chance of legislative redress)

It isn't just SF, this is fundamentally a generational war across the entire US, practically everywhere.
No it's just regular old racism.
Just to be clear, they don’t actually expect housing to be rented out to teachers in this way. What you do see in many cities around the bay is teacher specific adu and dwelling permitting. It seems to me the idea is to not actually make more, but to have a fig leaf where they can say to the state that their housing element is in compliance.
Doubling the thrust is likely overall a bad idea, for the reasons you mention.

Also looking at other posts in this discussion, it seems the 4-engine option (4x 150kN class size engines to provide about same overall thrust) was discarded because the asymmetrical thrust in case an engine gives out at a critical moment (takeoff, say) would mean that the plane would need a bigger tail in order to have enough rudder authority. Which in turn would mean that the airframe would need strengthening to take the added weight and stress from that bigger rudder. Etc. etc. leading to the cost of the engine replacement program spiraling out of control. So in that sense as close to a 1:1 as possible is the right decision.
I'm not familiar with the exact model in question, but photo-oriented (as opposed to text-oriented) printers are usually bitmap-only, especially the cheaper ones.

The main problem is that the format is not documented, and there may also be a layer of compression.

> No one I've talked to is actually interested in the step-sibling fetish, yet the overwhelming majority of content being made and advertised - especially by mainstream studios and well-known actors - is step-sibling themed. Why? Because these studios are deciding what to make based on what's popular on pornhub, and what's popular on pornhub is literally anything these studios make. I sincerely doubt that they would see a drop in engagement if they diversified, but trends in data will never drive diversity faster than they drive convergence, because convergence is essentially the goal of data driven production in the first place.

I think your analysis is incorrect... it's likely extremely profitable for the porn studios because: 1. It's an easy plot to make up. 2. requires absolutely no extra props fancy locations or anything beyond the basic porn shoot. 3. it's extremely taboo so for whoever is actually into that they get to rope in and for the rest of the porn consumers they can just skip the part where they have all that verbalized and it's basically normal porn for some version of normal.

My pessimistic view: making it too easy to report spam may highlight how much spam there actually is on Twitter. Something the company definitely does not want to do at the moment.
