It's shocking how hard of a time people have distinguishing watts from watt hours. Even in a forum aimed at technical people.
I was a carpenter in my early 20s and the owner of a company said he was going to sue me for the cost of some very specific training since I quit after only working for him for 9 months. It was pretty valuable training and I definitely used it to get my next job.

I said I'd sue him for wages he owed from when he paid everyone non-union rates on a union job site. Also not requiring use of personal vehicles and not reimbursing for mileage.

That was the end of it. He was sued for that reason a couple of years later by the local union itself. He just folded the entity and made a new one. I'm sure he is still treating people the same way.
> At the most basic level, in Rust you cannot overload operators.

I've heard this claim multiple places and I don't really understand it. Operators have corresponding traits that you can pretty easily define for your types.

> I'm not sure how to calculate my total embodied energy

It's probably dominated by your vehicle if you have one (decent rule of thumb is abkut equal to the fuel you'd put through an ICE of the same size in a given time)
I was not exposed to Godard until my freshman year in film school. And, as soon as I saw it, I was blown away. The way he could play with conventions to make a point with the film medium which could not be expressed in any other way; it was mind blowing.

I also remember attempting to mimic what he was doing along with some of my fellow students. When we proudly brought our work to a film critique, the professor let all the other students speak first. The critique from other students was overwhelmingly positive. Then, finally, the professor spoke up.

"You all need to get this through your head: Before you can break the rules you need to understand the rules. You don't understand the rules yet."

Godard understood the rules and knew exactly how to break them. I've taken that advice with me throughout my software engineering and product development career. It has served me well, to check my ego at the door.
If I had to guess, I think the reason some people make this claim about some ethnic conflicts is usually because they think that the claim is true.

This is really cool. We're building something similar at Decipad (https://www.decipad.com) would love to hear what you think.
I hate headlines like this. Unless you cash out of your holdings you don't lose anything. Likewise, you also don't gain anything unless you cash out. The more scary part is that a large portion of the population doesn't understand the difference between paper wealth and liquid assets.
Drop bars can be set as high as you want. There are even off road drop bar bikes built with stems looking like goose necks to put the bar high enough (see example in the link). It is more about the position in which you want to put your hands/wrist that matters.

Gravel bikes are sold in many different kinds, and different materials. Steel, alu, titanium, carbon, you name it. They are also build with different use in mind. Some are "racing" gravel with many lightweight high end components, other are made for bikepacking with provision for fenders, front and rear racks and usually more common standards. Those are commuters friendly.

> I can take a copy of linux...

We all know this already, thanks...

> anyone else is able to start supplying the same thing

Not if there's a custom extension.

Additionally, "supplying the same thing" is equivalent of asking someone to write a perfect drop-in replacement for the Linux kernel, to connect to your example.

It's not that simple, by far.

> It still costs resources to do it, but there is no artificial block because of patents.

Actually, no. CPU IP can be patented and no, RISC-V does not prohibit it.

You are asking for someone to design a new CPU, while also supporting whatever custom extension already exists, while also navigating the huge patent minefield.
It specifically mentions that it's about the overall energy used (housing+food+car+plane+&c.). 2000kWh per year in europe is just about household consumption
There's a difference between weight weenie carbon and using carbon to improve ride feel and aerodynamics. I've got an old bike made out of Reynolds 853 steel that's lighter than my recent vintage full carbon bike.
I'm somewhat argumentative. And perhaps I've just been lucky, but I haven't left a single job because of people. The people I worked with were always at least ok to deal with. Perhaps others have left jobs because of me?
Depends if the horse knows where it's going. If it's going home, no problem.
> a few items had been looted from it in the short period of time between its discovery and closure.

I mean, wth? It’s 2022 and people are still looting this stuff? There wasn’t any gold found in the cave, so the value of what is taken is lost when it is removed from its context.
I think the point stands. You can look at mobility in terms of percentile, or you can look at it in terms of absolute dollars. Both have different uses.

I personally would prefer to see my dollar income increase, but don't care about my income percentile.
It did mention getting 500W from carbon based means.

I'm in the lets use as much green energy as we want camp. The hair-shirt stuff from many in the green movement is the main reason I don't take them seriously.

Agreed that GW and sea level rise are existential issues for coastal communities (and possibly the human race as a whole) but why cap energy usage from Nuclear, Wind and Solar.

I'd sign up for a 100W cap on carbon faster than a 10kW cap on energy.
Maybe continue reading a little…?

> The concept addresses not only personal or household energy use, but the total for the whole society, including embodied energy, divided by the population.

Filling up my car’s gas tank once is roughly 444 kWh in fuel value alone. Add to that gas refining, logistics and whatnot.

So true.

Before you can break the rules you need to understand the rules. Godard understood the rules and knew exactly how to break them. He used film to express ideas which could not have been expressed on any other medium.

I didn't read it that way at all.

I read it as: where can we find a lower cost (than C++) pool of developers.

It's not particularly conspiratorial. Companies are always looking to expand their labor force and good C++ devs can be very expensive, so why would you want start a new project in C++? Security is another aspect altogether...
What I’ve learned from users
I am an out of shape former racer who has ridden his bike 10 times in the last two years. I have a dad belly and rarely work out at all. I recently did The Rift this summer - a 200km gravel race here in Iceland that people come from all over the world to race. I did it on a carbon cyclocross bike from my racing days with file treads. I felt like the light weight of my bike outweighed just about every gravel fad that's out there right now. I was flying past people on the hills, and while the ride felt very rough on the high speed flats, I was still going fast. If I were in my racing shape of a few years ago I think I would have been in the top 5-10% of racers, largely because nearly everyone was on giant heavy gravel bikes with massive tires loaded for friggin bikepacking from the look of it. My wife has a purpose-built gravel bike, and she commented on just how slow it felt going uphill (she is a former state cyclocross champion).

With the exception of the absolute professionals, most people "Racing" these events are just there to finish them, and the pros? It's basically just a road race. Gravel offers no significant challenge in handling your bike, and any reasonable set-up can win if it's light enough and the rider is fit enough. The Aero arms race certainly matters in time trials, but I remain unconvinced there's enough benefit for the actual racing. I know US Midwest gravel races are effectively flat, but acceleration is greatly improved with a light bike too.
Don't destroy your mental/physical health for a shitty managed company, one time I had a project just like this, pushed it and it ended very badly - in a psychiatric hospital.

Find a new job and move on, take the good devs with you so you don't lose the synergy you built together. Tell them exactly why you're all leaving, perhaps next time they won't have so many damn meetings.

Most importantly - under no circumstances agree to work over 8 hours/day or weekends without them paying you double your usual rate. They must learn that shitty management has its price.
The average Armenian-American has more connections to Armenians in Europe than the average Irish-American has to Ireland.
I've worked with Firebase Hosting for around three years, using Firebase Functions instead of Cloud Run, but in your particular example, you can configure your Firebase Hosting to rewrite requests against your Cloud Run instances as documented in https://firebase.google.com/docs/hosting/full-config#rewrite....

This doesn't require handling an OPTIONS request for every endpoint, which I agree could be fairly simple, but Firebase Hosting configuration could very well be less invasive than this change in the rest of the codebase.
I'm not sure if there is one. Or maybe it's used for both, depending on context/community?

The song was definitely a vaginal reference as far as I ever knew.
Most of my work, in two very different lines of work, is bound to strict hard deadlines. As I mentioned, those are events, reports to external entities, billing etc...

I'd say 75% of my dev work is hard deadlines.
It's not in nvidia's interest to promote a competitor to their own solution (locked to their GPUs exclusively). AMD lacks the interest to push ROCm to consumers, but instead seems to be focusing on HPC deployments, meaning that they don't have to be interoperable either.

The only hope is that Intel pushes OpenCL as one of the selling points of their new Arc GPUs. They seem to be starting with the gaming market, however, which isn't very interested in computing. It could be that they have plans to attack the non-HPC market, in which case it would make sense to follow OpenCL.

At the same time, Intel is developing oneAPI, so it may make more sense to look at that instead of OpenCL.
As a moral principle it’s kind of vague but you can take it as “when in doubt assume the best of people” which can work as an anti-prejudice tool.

But just because the bar is set so high for criminal guilt doesn’t mean we can or should use it elsewhere.

And much of personal interactions are basically “guilty until proven innocent” because the risk (even if minor) isn’t worth it. Most people have no problem being told they can’t share a bathroom stall with you even if you’d share one with a spouse.

Even civil cases have a lower bar, and many personal interactions are way lower.

And while I do have a problem with “do one crime and never be hirable again for anything” I do not have a problem with certain crime blocking certain types of work, and/or subjecting you to additional scrutiny.
I am a big fan of his works. I was sad to know that he had passed away. But as the author of this essay said, up until the last moment he had done things "his way" and it is this dare, this strange ways of being, and pointing out things that I would not have seen / thought otherwise, made me fall in love with his movies in the first place. Also, I truly find he kind of manages to imbibe a certain sense of "humor" in most of his works. I like that a lot.
Hong Kong apartments start at around 120 sq feet (about 11m²), and a family of 6 might live in 550 sq feet (50m²).
You should read the article, rider positionning and clothing is mentionned.
Storage layout is not the primary issue here because IO throughput on commodity hardware has increased significantly in the last 10 years.

DuckDB is significantly faster than SQLite because it has a vectorized execution engine which is more CPU efficient and uses algorithms which are better suited for analytical queries. If you implemented a scan operator for DuckDB to read SQLite files, it would still have better performance.
I read all of it, not just a little of it. I'm commenting on personal, immediate consumption.
Most people didn't understand that my goal was not to benchmark all existing calculator apps. It is on purpose that I did not mention all "pretty good" softwares, because I cannot know them all.

The article I wrote wants to mention every point that should be adressed (in my opinion) to make a good calculator.
Qalculate, like many others, does address some of them.

But as far as I know, only Chalk addresses all of them.
Ask HN: How to Deal with Being Unlikeable
I am recently joining a community of founders who basically try to find a co-founder. Typically, I would place myself in situations whereby I need to present myself, if i am not liked in those scenarios it wouldnt be a big deal. I realized that people I had engaged with previously on zoom , we got along better in real life and basically those relationships were more engaged than totally new encounters. Example, I referenced 'the paperclip maximizer' when someone asked about useless startup ideas during a game, there was no response from the group, basically 6 people ignored the statement i just mentioned. And when it was time to present the guy embarrassingly asked me to present knowing I had not seen the presentation at all.

I realised that within 1-2 min conversations would collapse, the other person would excuse themselves for a coffee, bathroom, and never come back. I am curious what are some hacks people use for blending into groups you don't visually or culturally blend with (you look and sound different)
X-ray them too to catch any swallowed/implanted devices.
An interesting question springs to my mind. How does the carbon omissions of having a summer and winter house and flying between them compare to heating the summer house in winter or cooling the winter house in summer.
What software does is to provide a way for people to achieve something. An automated process would take the requirement and provide the best solution. I don't think we can assume that would be "software" as we know it, why would it need to be?
> How good is rust at using existing C/C++ libraries? There’s so many of them for very useful low-level functionality, especially when programming against the Win32 API (which is written in C/C++ itself).

About as good as any other language with a C FFI (which is most of them).

> ... I worry about rust’s long-term trajectory as [Mozilla's] support of the language wanes.

I thought that was the whole point of having a Rust Foundation as separate from Mozilla itself.
I have been using a solo WhatsApp group as my "notes app" for years. Quite common with Android users. But when I needed a dedicated notes app to get a little more organised, I couldn't find anything satisfactory. The popular notes app are way too complicated for my purpose. The lesser knowns usually don't have a good UI/UX. And there's also the issue of privacy.

I needed a privacy respecting notes app which worked like whatsapp. So I built exactly that - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.makenoteto...

Took inspiration from Signal and called it Note to Self.
Your point is very valid to the above but I'd like to fix GP's example. The distinction here is that what's being discussed is more about deadlines that are built around systems that are already deemed stable and mature, already went through all these processes and now have a fairly stable level of uncertainty and data surrounding it they can work with.

Imagine more if the airline promised a flight would be ready using a brand new plane that was just now being designed out or at some stage in development someone unknowledgable felt comfortable to start making promises about timelines and even extrapolating out production. New plane designs and manufacturering take years and years sometimes. Have all sorts of delays, have safety issues that require them to redesign things later and so on. You don't see a lot of new plane designs you see the same known things used over and over.

It's one thing to make forecasts around fairly well known, established, and mature systems and processes, it's an entirely different beast doing so around less known systems and processes. The vast majority of software engineering and development is done around something new or different that has little contextual reference. If you do have reference then you're rebuilding the same things using the same pattern and it won't be long until libraries, frameworks, systems, processes, etc. emerges to automate that at which point your time shifts to the new things you need to automate which haven't been automated or done yet (again, otherwise you'd just leverage the prior work).

Planning to make a site using something like say Django vs building a new framework with different features like Django are very very different and a lot of development is trying to do something unique and new which means high uncertainty.
A Tesla Model 3, the most efficient EV, uses 240 Wh/mile. You could not drive more than 8.3 miles without exceeding the 2 kWh/h.
Sure, but given that even today people still feel the need to write applications in non-GC languages for some godforsaken reason, it's good that Rust is there for them. Making a new language is easier than educating the developer population, sadly.
This is a solved problem. You don’t accuse them yourself but you leak information anonymously or have an undeclared mouthpiece (“friends close to Carlsen”) speak for you.

We use all kinds of tools that require a database that is effectively hidden from us. (e.g. git). I don't think this is a significant blocker or problem.
> You are required to contribute patches of your modifications back to the upstream project

That is not required by the GPL, you only have to distribute source to people you distribute binaries to. Those people can decide to redistribute it (or not) to anyone (including upstream) of course, and they are bound by the same terms as you are.

Yes and potentially yes.

Normally when manually writing Makefiles people assume the host system doesn't change as it's painful and the only alternative is to sacrifice portability. If you want a more reliable/portable/stable build the only real option is use a build system like meson/cmake/autotools/basel/... to generate the appropriate Makefile for the current machine (and once you start doing that you might as well stop using make and use ninja instead).

The thing is, people make purchasing decisions based on their paper wealth. They use it to plan their retirement, or decide their price range for a new house.

Shrinking household wealth destroys confidence in the economy, and can lead to a serious feedback loop.
Having fake accounts purporting to be real people is what’s covert, so I think we agree.

I also agree that states tend towards such action, but there should at least be an antagonistic relationship with the security state apparatus. Instead, both parties (with minor blips over incredibly personal matters) love the FBI, CIA, etc.
"Why would I need to avoid it?"

Because it's a slippery slope to collective punishment.

"This is a telling slip; Lewy is talking about ‘the Armenians’ as if the defenceless women and children who comprised the deportation columns were vicariously responsible for Armenian rebels in other parts of the country. The collective guilt accusation is unacceptable in scholarship, let alone in normal discourse and is, I think, one of the key ingredients in genocidal thinking. It fails to distinguish between combatants and non-combatants, on which international humanitarian law has been insisting for over a hundred years now." [0]
