Nobody I know uses that app. They charge way higher admin and booking fees than the alternatives.

Trainline adds a fee to every ticket sold, apps like TrainPal do the same things as Trainline (book tickets, check delays, see platform, walking times, etc), but only charge a fee if they get you the ticket cheaper than buying it from the station. So, including the fee, the price you pay is still less. And it find way better split-ticket deals than Trainline does.

I was initially thrown by the example code which doesn't look like C++ at all:

main: () -> int = { ... }

I learned this is 'Cpp2' which was also discussed by Herb Sutter recently[0]. I don't know if there is a desire for C++ (i.e. Cpp1) to become Cpp2 at some point - could this ever happen?

Because complicated things become so obvious and natural that it's hard to even remember that some things are not inherently known by any of your peers.

It can be hard to accurately gauge your interlocutor previous knowledge, so you don't make them feel dumb by explaining too simple things, or by starting with too complex stuff.

>or point to obscure or very high-difficulty resources.

Although here I think that's on the learner to make an effort. If you want to learn X but you need Y to understand it, your next question should be how can I learn Y, and if you need Z to learn it, you should ask how to learn Z, and most of these questions can be answered by search engines, you don't usually need an expert for that.

"E.g: You ask an expert programmer for advice on how to learn to become a good programmer, they will almost always suggest mid tier resources."

Well once you went through something like CS50, you should be able to grasp mid tier resources, or at least be able to find out what you need to learn to go through them.
I fully agree. This loyalty myth is perpetuated by employers to discourage leaving in the face of poor wage adjustments and working conditions. We should work for the employer which treats us best. Always. That's how jobs work. Loyalty has nothing to do with it. If an employer has issues with a short stint of mine, I want nothing to do with them. They're clearly looking for people of which to take advantage.

My school back then went from BBC micros straight to PCs as well (I suspect it might have been govt policy, or lack thereof). And the PCs then were awful compared to the Arch. Can't remember if it was an early version of Windows or OS/2, but back then the PC gui desktop was absolutely shocking in comparison to the Archimedes and Macintosh.
I was against most of the bans, but I don't like government interfering too much. As the real danger would be governments deciding that certain accounts should be banned. And in many cases government supported pressure groups are already involved in those bans

If we look at the truckers convoy in Canada, the government in power can just call the protesters terrorists and then what does PayPal do?

They should not steal the funds of those accounts; They should possibly pay compensation to the account holders they block

The best solution is the appearance of new apps aligned differently politically. For example YouTube is slowly destroying their monopoly by banning videos, people now immediately double upload into 2 or more platforms, making other platforms popular, Bitchute, Odyssey, Rumble, Newtube, Peertube...

I left denmark because tech wages were quite low compared to the uk after _all_ taxes have been factored in. The tech job market was basically non existent around 13 years ago. Still seems small upon a quick check as of today. Schools and universities are free but nowhere near the quality the uk offers. Public healthcare is ok but you still need to queue up or go private. It is a cool stable country, i like it, and danes are super friendly, but tech is dead.

In my opinion, wealth itself is power, influence and impunity. That you can leverage those to get more wealthy is incidental.
If the expectation is 'the best work of your life' shouldn't compensation follow? Fair pay gets you fair work, not the best. 'Best compensation of your life' gives you 'the best work of your life', anything below that gives you just that, fair work

Granted, I mostly do GNOME stuff so it’s an easy choice, but it’s an incredible IDE. Fast, doesn’t get in the way with modal dialogs or give me a million equally ugly options for how I can organize my workspace (43 lets you rearrange panels but it has a pretty good model for what actually belongs as a panel so I don’t end up panicking about where I put some new panel when I try to manage Flatpak runtimes or something. It isn’t afraid to have its own opinions about how the UI should be).

I like that it’s opinionated about build systems in a different direction than many IDEs, so if your project uses Meson (like every GNOME module) it knows what to do with it - you don’t end up with IDE-specific gunk anywhere. And if your project uses Flatpak, it knows how to build and run inside the appropriate Flatpak SDK.

Builder really shines when you clone a GNOME app repo (the welcome screen offers a bunch), click the Run button, and everything just happens automatically.
Wikipedia should never be considered a "source", even per its own documentation.

If you must, to support an assertion found in Wikipedia, follow the article's citations and use them. If they even do support the assertion. Quite often, they do not.
I think most people are going to find a moral equivalence drawn between "locked up children in cages" and "tricked Osama Bin Laden's relatives into taking a blood test" pretty hollow, even if an argument can be made that the latter led to a complex downstream set of externalities.

US will go cashless only if millions of Americans working in residential construction, as tipped waiters, all kinds of small business owners, contractors etc. can no longer easily cheat on taxes through using cash.

Those millions of people would stop cheating on taxes only if the IRS receives significantly more funding as well as a mandate to vastly improve its detection of suspicious financial activity and increase the number of audits.

The IRS would receive more funding and a new mandate only if (a) Republicans massively lose in Congress and then (b) Democrats decide to burn their advantage on a very unpopular measure.

Tl;dr the US will not go cash-less in the foreseeable future.

Ah you are correct.

I have just compared originals I had which were uploaded to Google Photos vs the ones downloaded.

Visually there is a barely perceptible difference in a side-by-side comparison on a high quality and calibrated monitor. I wouldn't have noticed if it weren't side-by-side and zoomed in.

On the file size, it's gone from a 6MB jpeg down to about a 1.5MB jpeg.

On the smaller files that difference is far less, but jpegs above 3MB seem to see the biggest reduction in file size.

Thankfully I have all of my originals that weren't taken on the phone camera so I don't mind this so much as running my exiftool script over the original archive produces the same naming convention and I can merge those folders and still have the originals I care about.

Sheesh though... such a thing for Google to screw up on.

Not sure if we can make such specially-marked lines using org-mode. Never needed this feature myself. But for those who want a workflow like this the new package could be useful. But again maybe there is a way to do this without an external package with a little bit of elisp?

Frankly, that pales to what we have here in The Netherlands. A single OV-chipkaart swipe and you can take an NS train to wherever you want without needing to reserve seats and pre-book tickets. When I was in UK I didn't understand why the need for so much complexity when they could make it work like London metro (swipe in/out with a card). Needless to say I am not a fan of the UK system.

TikTok Seen Moving Toward U.S. Security Deal, but Hurdles Remain
I lucked out and started working in a team where most people were there 5+ years and the real senior ones were 10+ years in the team. It was a cross functional team, somewhat isolated from the large organization, working on 'special projects' (government, military, police etc.) and it was comprised of engineers, testers, business analysists, technical project managers and a team lead. I spent so much time getting mentored, learning the ins and outs and being slowly ramped up to what I believe were great engineering practices.

I still attribute my engineering mind to that formative experience. At one point the company got bought out, teams dissolved and it became a hot mess where nothing was really done anymore. I left the team, with a heavy heart, and in a year's time the company was basically dead apart from some invested (crashed stocks so they must go up!) people that were left to maintain ongoing projects.

Since then, and it's been close to a decade, I haven't found any company where even a tiny sliver of hope exists to be able to mentor people the way I have been mentored. The landscape changed and everyone is looking for velocity. In my current role, whenever I ask a potential 'expert' if they have any experience with 'X' (due to their background in it), they just google, get to the first result and suggest that as a solution.
Pretty fun idea, but am I reading it wrong or are you fibbing when you say it's AI generated :P You just have a corpus that you either sample randomly, or if the keyword is present you use a nearby word, right?
Something should either be in the protocol or not. No one likes a situation where you see a feature on your client and it sometimes works or sometimes doesn't depending on the situation.

I'm not sure what you mean. The only way I can think it would feasibly work is if you have multiple columns with the same content, but offset by the window height. That wouldn't require any container linking and would allow you to scroll normally, but I also think it would be pretty weird.

Something like this: https://jsfiddle.net/n87hkdf4/

I think anything else would require tedious scrolling up and down all the time or worse - horizontal scrolling!

This sounds like a story I've heard several times in Germany. It goes like this: ① Someone like that Free Speech Union does something that is perhaps forbidden for you and me, but they're doing it for noble political reasons and somehow avoid prosecution. ② Someone else pushes through a rule change, either to allow the forbidden thing when done for political reasons, or to prevent it being done by e.g. blocking funding to related organisations.

This is where the Telegraph is now. The next step, not anticipated by the Telegraph: ③ People of the wrong political shade leverage the rule change to effect exactly the opposite of what was intended.

> Higher investment rate means when prices go down/a recession happens, people invest in new businesses which means a recovery happens quicker and is more robust.

I mean you have lower rates so the downturn will have a smaller impact in an absolute sense.

> Just look at Canada's GDP per capita over time versus the US'. Or the fact our only job growth since the pandemic started has been in government jobs. Our private sector is dying because it's more profitable to simply move money to the US or to put it all into unproductive real estate.

Sure. If the downturn has a disproportional impact despite the sector's small size (investment), then it's because it was a far riskier investment than others.
Ask HN: How influential can physical appearance be in professional environments?

At least I am glad to see that Salvini and Berlusconi got such low percentages. They are more populist and demagogic than Meloni.
They're booming because they're benefiting from our work. Copy + paste only works for some time until you start needing to create your own original things. But without copyright what's the point? Someone else will quickly take your investment of time and effort, and make profit that you can't (because you need to price what you developed higher than the competition, who is using your work, to recoup that investment).

Copyright is useful, just not in its current state where it's being abused.

That Amazon sucks at finding what you‘re looking for is perhaps not a bug, but a feature. Many here on HN have the engineer‘s mindset where shopping for an item is just solving a problem. But perhaps, for most people, online shopping is something different altogether. Perhaps the a sizable majority of people actually enjoy „hunting“ for a good deal. They, perhaps, enjoy getting „inspirations“ along the way. So Amazon, through testing, might find that making search very fuzzy and even customer reviews not very reliable to actually boost sales.

In an ideal world, I‘d like Amazon to filter fake reviews, weigh the rating of products with hundreds of reviews higher than those with just a handful of reviews, and give me filters to exclude words, search by strings, block particular brands, sort not only by price but by price per unit, and so on. I used to think that Amazon was just lazy in not implementing these things. But I now suspect that the real reason is that they‘ve found that most people do not want to shop like that. For them, shopping perhaps is much less about mere „procurement“ than about gamification, the thrill of the hunt, and entertainment.
Isn't that the case for movies as well?

I can see the production cost of a fantasy genre book being high with every new book but textbooks not that much. Maximum you're asking some TAs to review your book and paying them with a thank you note on the first few pages of the book.

Many people in the EU have always argued for a soft Brexit, where the UK would remain in the common market. It was really the Brexiteers who kept insisting on a hard Brexit. You can't blame that on the EU.

The problem is that the Leave campaign had promised the impossible: to stay in the common market for goods and services, but leave the common market for labour (free movement), and not pay for anything anymore. The world just doesn't work that way.

> "No one should ever be able to interrupt me, absolutely ever" is a disturbingly entitled and modern take.

I have developed a telephone phobia when things started to fall apart between some people and me. I got really scared of phone calls and seeing particular people call. While this is no longer an issue, the fear has been embedded in me. I have rationalized some of it with a "I don't want people to interrupt me". In reality, I don't mind being on a phone call to discuss something, but these have moved on to other platforms.

I mostly get these days spam calls specifically from outside of my country of residence and recruiters (specifically English! - plenty of +44 numbers). Unlike years ago (in the US for me), I remember 95% of all calls were meaningful, the complete opposite of where it is for me now.

Regardless, I agree with your statement. This is anecdotal for me, but the march of technology and its imposition on the way we communicate has also resulted in the creeping march of very low-brow behavior unseen in times when talking to someone over some network involved just picking up a phone and calling them.

One does not simply read to become a better writer, but reading a bunch might make writing easier for you (that was my experience). Like was mentioned in the article, writing used to be “tough” for me. I picked up reading as a hobby during the pandemic, and now I’m avid. Now the writing flows out of me. I don’t know if it’s any good, but I don’t dread it anymore.
Other way around. If I'm primarily working over Zoom, I find that depressing, like eating microwave meals rather than real food.

Fun thoughts! Surprisingly, a normal (soprano) flute takes almost as much air as a tuba. The instrument featured here would definitely take at least tuba volumes of air.

None of the assists you mention would be worth it because you would lose almost all of the nuance in tone quality. It is no accident that bagpipes tend to have a fairly uniform sound and volume. And that’s assuming you can somehow prevent the additional noise these techniques bring with them.
