IME it’s completely transparent. You load up your suica and you’re off.

The issue’s it’s a bit too transparent: and after a while you realise that your suica is emptying unexpectedly fast, because you’re paying (and resetting your trip counter) every time you pass a gate, and that you probably shouldn’t blindly follow western trip system because you want to limit network switches, at which point you run into the issue that the resources for that are mostly in Japanese.

Then it depends how much the overhead is and how much you care.
You are experiencing the rot of failing economy in real time. The only solution is useful, productive enterprise - this is how functional, successful societies operate. There could be other paths there, but the most sure bet is to unshackle capital and let it invest freely.

I would hope that by now, people won't be as privileged to assume that employment length is unrelated to other issues that people won't publicly talk about.

For URMs, short stints can be because of toxic environments, just as long tenure for immigrants might be due to visa requirements.
Org mode provides a supercharged version of this functionality that will work for any language as long as you can point it to an appropriate runtime. It's definitely a little more verbose, since you have to declare the language and stuff inside the org mode syntax, but I'm sure that you could get it to work ad-hoc with a little hacking.

Good now we can train AI on these.
Except you have to recreate the awesome plugins and community that exist around vim for vis. I wish they existed.
Apt comparison!
`org-mode` has the ability to evaluate code blocks and store the output in a following results block[0].

You can configure it to run just about everything in various ways and therefore you can do Literate Programming in nearly the full Knuth sense in it.

I find it's a good solution for a local "notebook" similar to IPython/Jupyter Notebooks but for any language in Emacs.

Before the food metaphor, you said, quoting:

> someone stole his intellectual property and distributed it for free
This is not true for what we call “senior software engineers”, which is someone not in a high level position in the company. We have knowingly hired many people with the expectation that they will leave after 2 years on average.

> won't want to be the next stop on what they perceive to be a hot potato adventure

This is not how top tech companies think, and it’s the reason that the average job duration is so short at the top of the industry. It’s not viewed through some sour grape lens of “if I can’t have them for 10 years, I don’t want them!” It’s, if they work at least a year, it will be a great opportunity to build cool stuff for however long they are around.

What you’re saying might be true for some senior management side things where long-time relationships are more important, but it’s not for people who want to be highly ranked ICs.

Friday literally means Day of Frigg (Old English), referring to Frigga, the wife of Odin. Yes, Freya is believed to be the same goddess as Frigga, but the day is named after Frigga not Freya.
I think NIST has actually recommended against forced rotation of passwords (unless they are breached) since at least 2017.

"Verifiers SHOULD NOT impose other composition rules (e.g., requiring mixtures of different character types or prohibiting consecutively repeated characters) for memorized secrets. Verifiers SHOULD NOT require memorized secrets to be changed arbitrarily (e.g., periodically). However, verifiers SHALL force a change if there is evidence of compromise of the authenticator."

Simple.

Food. Mostly plants. As close to raw as convenient.

Is it? Lots of fruits and vegetables every day. Some nuts a few days a week. Red meat once or twice a week, poultry meat and eggs for the rest of the week. Add in things like olive/avocado oil, spices, vinegar, yogurt. Drink water, tea/coffee, milk. Rarely rice, pasta, potatoes.

How could you go wrong with that ? That's basically my diet.

Anecdote here, worked for me.

I’m now 40+, but when I was 28, I had this bad, visible, unsightly eczema on my neck. No dermatologist could prescribe anything to make it go away and I had lived with collared shirts since.

I attempted to go on keto diet, fat, proteins, and zero sugar and carbs, twice. Once when the pandemic started, and a second time in Oct 2021. I wanted to lose weight, and to prevent diabetes as a possible future.

The first time around, it took a month to get into ketosis as dieting with zero carbs is incredibly hard. Ended up with a rash and had to reintroduce carbs to get rid of the rash after 2 days.

The second time was much easier. Paired with exercise, I lost 15lb (155 to 140 can see my 4-pack again) andhadn’t noticed until recently, but my eczema was gone!

Since then, I do have 1 or 2 cheat days a week, but my carb and sugar consumption is under 50g on those days. Whenever I eat sugar now, all the sweetness hits me like a truck and I need water.

I have no scientific proof, but the experiment on my own body worked for me, and I have a good idea now what happens when I eat “high” carb days vs not.
I traveled by train around England (in many small hops, London to Newcastle to Carlisle to Portsmouth and back to London) and Germany (in a similar pattern but from Frankfurt to Berlin with a side trip north) and generally found British trains to be as reliable, more pleasant, and less crowded. Although to be fair in Germany I did have to plan my trips and in England I got the all-you-can-ride youth pass that just allowed me to hop on any train I wanted (flashpacking!).

It's a pretty nice way to travel if you don't want to go outside of the network (as soon as I had to go somewhere without a train like Richmond castle or Hadrian wall it was kind of pain). Not sure I would want to commute like that though, unlike inter-city subways whatever trains I happened to take at rush our, in either country, were not so great.
There's a real ambiguity, but it isn't in the examples you gave.

It's the case of saying "next Tuesday" on a Thursday, and meaning that no Tuesdays will pass before the date in question, versus saying "next Thursday" on a Tuesday, where a Thursday will happen before the date.

That's because on Thursday, "this Tuesday" has already happened. But sometimes people will be thinking of "Tuesday after next" when they say "next Tuesday" on a Thursday, because they mean "the Tuesday after the coming Tuesday" and not "the Tuesday of next week".
Basically, trying to see if I can avoid the mistake they did and learn from their experience.

> If you're making the argument that theft is limited to tangible things, well, you're entitled to that belief, but generally the consensus is that intangible property is still property. Money is property.

The argument is not about tangibility. If you steal someone's virtual money, they still cease to have it.

> If you're making the argument that zero marginal cost items are not private property, that's an extremely radical position

On the contrary, I'd argue that allowing people to literally own numbers is absurd.
To my knowledge, you’re paying for the 4+ years of constant extreme testing & revision of the design by some of the fastest skaters in the world (seriously, have been ridden by dude who held #2 downhill world record as of 2018)

along with the wealth of knowledge & documentation of technique that comes with that. Just taking into account raw metal… no, it’s not that much money worth of metal. There are more than a few machining operations though, & those stack up a bit.
Even if your daily commute was a 15 min walk each way, that's half an hour per day, or 10 hours per month.

I'm guessing the median employed HN reader values their time at over $45/hour. If so, that saved time is worth $450/month.

$450/month is enough to pay for:

- 2 separate internet connections costing $100/month each (more than enough in most US cities, even those with little competition like SF)

- a new office chair every year ($1200, or $100/month)

- $100/month towards electricity

- a new webcam, mic and arm every year ($600, or $50/month)

I'm not sure why there is such a persistent meme about questioning Jesus' existence.

Certainly, not everyone will believe in the things that He did, nor do I expect them to believe it. However, even among some of the most diehard Atheist Historians, to claim that Christ never existed is something that is easily disproved. See: Dr. Bart D. Ehrman (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=43mDuIN5-ww) Keep in mind, Dr. Ehrman is probably one of the most outspoken Atheists critical of both New and Old Testament theology.

There are Atheist celebrities like Dawkins, Hitchens, or Harris, who get a lot of press and coverage, but as far as "In the weeds" detail-oriented historical and archeological debates on up-to-date understanding of the ancient world? Dr. Ehrman is probably in the top 1-5% of Atheist debaters to look towards.

People are welcome to believe whatever they like, but it's just embarrassing to read people write this sort of thing in the same way it's embarrassing to see people repeat the "We only use 10% of our brain" thing.

And we have a secondary calendar that just counts the days since some arbitrary date approx 150 years ago. It shares its name with a calendar from 2000 years ago, but it's really named after the father of the guy who came up with it who was named after the guy who established the older calendar.

What you wrote doesn't make rational sense to me:

1. Why would Shopify willingly hire and train lots of people during the pandemic if they knew they'd let them go afterwards anyways? This makes no economic sense at all, they'd be better off to silently burn that money and not take the reputation hit.

2. You assume that layoff decisions take your individual job and situation into account. This is not the case in practice, especially so in quota driven mass layoffs.

This isn't almost universal, in fact it's generally understood not to be the case, some of the time.

If I say "next Wednesday" on Thursday, I mean the Wednesday of next week, not "this Wednesday" which was yesterday.

"Next Weekday" of a weekday that's yet to happen, means one week after that day within this week.

"Next Weekday" of a weekday that already happened, means the very next instance of that day in the calendar, "This Weekday" refers to the past.

My understanding is that they never intended to leave the common market but to gain a trade deal that would leave market access substantially the same. However, the EU wouldn’t let them keep access in the divorce if for no reason other than as a cautionary tale for other member states. So, it turned ugly and there they are.

The web is optimised for the bulk of its users, that’s why 90% of the websites limit line length at a ‘researched’ optimal width, and some legacy or (legacy) tech enthousiast focussed websites wrap at the end of the available width.
No, what they've been enacting over the past few decades with the continued move towards privatization and destruction of public services. Like they've been doing what you've suggested for decades now. The 'downward spiral' you call out is because they're following your plans to a T. Cutting taxes and regulation, privatizing industries etc.

So to reiterate my question: At what point would you have to call that off and write off the privatization as a failure? Or would you keep going until you hit absolute rock bottom, then call any upward momentum a success?
Expectations of 10 years of experience is absolutely not an HR bomb. You need to retake your DEI training.

Ask HN: NoSQL or SQL database for a social media app?
Hi guys,

I'm building a social media mobile app (and potentially available for web).

As any social media app, there are a lots of relation data queries involve. For example, user follow authors, author create posts, post belong to topics.

Would it be much better to use SQL over NoSQL database in this case? Or maybe a mix of both?

Considering ease of development, the performance, and number of request trips. Such as checking if:
- The current user is following an author (in a post page or author's profile page)
- The current user has liked or bookmarked a post (in a post page)

Also, there are a number of querying recommendations for posts and authors for a user behind the sense.

Please share your advice if you have experienced in both NoSQL and SQL databases with similar project. Any database recommendation in particular?

Many thanks!

Or we could just redefine c to be 300,000m/s.
Tangentially, has there been any work in having more structured scrollback, say one buffer for every command, which can be collapsed, pinned or copied individually? Presently there's the minor annoyance when (accidentally) running any program with lots of output, which is that all the scrollback above it becomes inaccessible. Yeah, could have run them in different splits or redirected to begin with, but sometimes you don't know beforehand. And being able to reuse the output of a slow command after the fact would be handy too.

I was thinking that this'd be a feature of the terminal, but on second thought the terminal doesn't know where one command begins or ends, so it'd have to be the shell that saves the output.

As much as I might agree with the thrust of the article, I strongly dislike the leading purple prose. It's bad writing, and doesn't make the case - its just moralizing - the fact that I agree with this particular moralizing doesn't make it any good.

Moralizing generally just feeds the boiler of the outrage machine - it makes the reader feel good for agreeing - and gives the general impression that just talking about the issues are enough to have contributed, but does little to solve the underlying issues that plague our societies.

If you're curious what I mean - the language gins up outrage, but it's wantonly short on conclusions or suggestions to repair the problem, the reader is left to figure that out on their own.

I work in the r&d lab of a major testing/instruments manufacturer (I'm in AI but I work with engineers with expertise in radar, phased arrays, wave physics, FPGAs... so not really "SF tech"). Yet even here it seems like everyone is moving heavily towards just using teams. Now that I think about it, we only really use email when we deal with HR or to accept invitations to meetings (on teams).
In Python, there is a distinction between the text representation of an object, and the result of converting the object to a string. Classes can implement both methods independently, and it's not uncommon to have a repr method that returns something that you could (at least in theory) evaluate as literal Python code. This is very useful for debugging and logging, although not nearly as cool or powerful as the Lisp equivalent.
Do you work at big tech in Japan? I suspect that people around you tend to think as international (read: US, in Japan) way.

Despite your patronizing post, I'm going to give this a response.

We could attack the issue from the supply side - invest in production where there are bottlenecks (increasing supply of desirable goods), removing the profit motive by nationalizing some industries (for instance we could nationalize portions of the energy sector or transportation sector.)

Alternatively, we could use tight price controls on industrial inputs. This, in turn, would result in a slightly less efficient market, but a reduced inflation.

In fact, some have suggested that this inflation is not particularly demand side driven. Read this: https://www.frbsf.org/economic-research/publications/economi...

You'll also note that they 3 are obvious supply side problems associated with the current inflation - the war in Ukraine, COVID, to name some big ones.

Maybe you'd like a resource that looks longer term. Wage growth has not been a significant driver of the current inflation: https://www.epi.org/blog/wage-growth-has-been-dampening-infl...

Don't assume that someone who disagrees with your position is uneducated or less knowledgeable than you. I might not agree with you on economic policy (I'm sure you'll tell me nationalization is crazy talk) but just because we value different things is no reason to be patronizing.
If it makes you feel any better. It's not just a CPU this time. You need a newer mobo (expensive than AM4 boards), a DDR5 ram (also expensive) which will probably go down in price a bit by next year. So overall if it satisfies your needs 5950x is a great pick.
I don't get it. The dollar is supposed to be inflating, so it should take more dollars to buy things. But it takes fewer dollars to buy euros and pounds and stocks and bonds. The prices of all of these things, denominated in dollars, is plummeting. WTF?
