If I consider my own biases, I would consider a fit, well groomed person to be more competent. I believe this bias is based on fact that if someone is fit also means he/she is disciplined and well groomed is meticulous and these traits would transfer to other aspects of work also. Now, I understand that lot of things like age, genetics, ... make up for some of the signal that I am reading, but that is the nature of biases.
Even worse, the hex sockets are often just a bit too large so that even proper tools won't fit. Ikea also has some special screws that are not really Phillips, Pozidrive or any other standard so there just isn't a driver that would fit.
There are many serial services like this, and Amazon recently launched its own with Vella.

This can be a valid model, but in my opinion it would be unfortunate if it totally replaced the model of publishing the entire book at once. These kinds of episodic projects usually require installments that end on some kind of cliffhanger; something to keep readers going to (and paying for) the next installment. While there needs to be a certain amount of this in a book that is published in its entirety as well, the short-episode serial format morphs what the final result looks like to a much greater extent, and not always for the better imo. The goal to meet that market's demand is no longer to produce a complete standalone work, but to drag out the reader's attention for as long as possible episode by episode.
I didn't put them on there, they already were there when I picked the car up. And every time I try taking them off people get angry at me.

So you agree that italy is different and hence a far right woman is not that big of a threat as external observer think she is.

Even though the EU is one market, it really isn't much of a single market due to language and cultural differences. I've helped B2B companies and most small/medium sized ones want to limit their services to their own (and their country's neighbor's) country. There are a ton of problems related to fake company addresses placing orders and having them delivered at some random company's parking lot. Problems with regards to refunds, and –mot important– it is VERY hard to get the police to do anything about it. The minute it is outside of their jurisdiction, the police just doesn't do anything really.

> I know people who knowingly use POP to keep their remote boxes empty, and keep everything local, so I don't think we should decide for people that swiftly.

That could be done using IMAP as well. The overhead for that use case seems quite small. However it is just one protocol to support. And I haverun into a bunch of non-techy users with problems like "if i read my mails on my desktop I can't access them on my phone anymore, so I always use the phone"-like problems, which tells me their mail client on desktop likely uses POP3. By not offering POP3 you are removing that class of support problems with very little downside.
I use it everyday. It works very well. Just being able to easily switch screw sizes and having all of the taps/c'bores readjust is worth it.
> he's the only recent president who didn't start a new war

Not for a lack of trying. The assassination of Qasem Soleimani was authorized by Trump and led to several direct attacks on each other and only stopped after Iran accidentally shot down a commercial passenger plane originating from their own country.
Fun fact: HTTPS is implicitly required by the GDPR because the user agent metadata is considered PII and websites are required to implement best current practices, which includes HTTPS. There is no exemption for (public) personal websites as they're still providing a publicly accessible service and processing PII to do so.

The same goes for a privacy policy for that matter.
And another plan is to review my patches for 3.7.10 kernel, because it's just bunch of hacks and I still learn much more from work on them.

Basically, main goal has been: make machine with 3COM card with lanworks proprietary boot rom boots from network on old machine... but what do I going to boot? As a side effect of this effort were gray486linux born (yep. It was first). After some issues (CET instructions emited by gcc aka multinop instructions not supported by i486) it finally booted. Then... how hard it can be to do the same on 386 machine ;P. It was harder and I learned tons of stuff during the process.

Also. I would like to have something small which still can be booted over network and I can deploy prepared base images with DOS/Windows 3.11 etc... just that easy (with help of Ontrack or XTIDE bios).
Or I can deploy prepared Windows NT 4.0, because it looks like my SCSI cdrom died on one of my machines.

But if you have some ideas what to do with it, don't hesitate and let me know.

When holding a normal guitar right-handed (neck to the left) with the human head above the guitar, that's also "upside-down", so it matches the display on the screen.

Of course there are lefty guitars, and people playing right-handed guitars left handed, and as there is nothing that doesn't exist probably also someone playing a lefty guitar right-handed, ... so switches to flip in all directions would probably make sense.

However, I would be much happier with a lot more money without the hassle of moving across country or to a different country, which is only possible via remote
How does this follow? If it was a Euro crisis, then the euro would be down against sterling which would be stable against the dollar. That's not what we're seeing.

It seems more like this is a global crisis against which the US is better sheltered than most, possibly due to its geographical position, fuel reserves, strong military and more hawkish monetary policy.
Yeah, if my coworkers aren't in the office, then going to the office is just remote work with a commute.

Obviously forcing people that want to work remotely to come in isn't great either though. That's why I'm hoping that companies will choose one path or the other, and people can self-select into companies with their preferred working arrangement
Ah, that may be the key. (I do not use solidworks).
Prime is a nasty scam. If you compare the final pricing on the same item in a Prime and non-Prime account you'll see what I mean.
In some countries even private companies' annual financial statements are in the public record. This is the case in Sweden and Finland, at least.

Surprisingly few people seem to look up these records when joining a start-up though. But it's definitely useful for business journalists and presumably competitors.
To me your phrase 'skin in the debate' sums up my feelings about the debate we're having here.

I feel that everyone who wrote historically had skin in the debate and as such I mentally categorise them the same way I treat almost every journalist today. Writers are motivated to choose every word carefully to convince people of their opinions. They mention or exclude people and events for various reasons.

The more polarising the subject the less I trust anyone's words, even twenty centuries later.
I've been trying to wean myself off phones completely since the demise of the SE, but life in Moscow without a phone is basically impossible (taxis, deliveries, electric scooters, bikes etc. all become pretty much unavailable).

As a compromise I've been using the Palm Phone[0] for a while now (before that the Unihertz Atom, which is quite the chonker, albeit with a small screen). It's the size of a credit card and has terrible battery life, but it can do all the things I need so I've just learned how to deal with it.

I don't really have a solution for music on the go yet, as you can't connect normal headphones to modern phones without adapters (and those adapters actually draw a surprising amount of power if they have a DAC!) and Bluetooth is completely useless in large and densely populated cities. Maybe some iPod-like devices are still around ...

You pretty much describe me. Except I am very confident, have over 35 years of software engineering experience and am touching upon 50 years old. I recently joined a very large games company with a great reputation for diversity, inclusion and all that jazz. I was very happy.

I've been successful in my career (I think) because I've (often) used my physical presence and all the advantages it gives me to give the floor to quieter voices, marginalized opinions and I really feel like my teams have been great teams because of that. When you enable great people, great things happen. I was looking forward to that just being the norm.

However, at this company I found myself marginalized and discriminated against. I think because of my age, maybe because of my social class or maybe because of all the accidental advantages I have. I don't know and I don't really care.

Anyway I left them.

So it can swing both ways, just enjoy the ride. Good luck.

Because - numeric precision arguments aside, there's an excellent comment explaining that problem in this thread - it's the only unit of measurement that makes sense for angles.

It provides an easy way to connect the complex exponential with trigonometric functions (and everything you get from that, i.e. Taylor series, nice behavior in diffeqs). You can do the same in degrees as well, but you end up with weird conversion factors with pi in the denominator, a strong indication you should have multiplied by pi to begin with.
Ask HN: Merchant seafolk, how do you use internet?
You are a merchant seaperson (sorry if that sounds weird, I'm not some activist, I've just tried to use gender-neutral words for things where they can apply for a long time, since I was a kid ~~ just seems right), and you spend a long time aboard commercial ships for work. You are a long way from a coast (outside the range of mobile phones, and wifi). How do you use the internet? What is it like? Do you have good bandwidth? Can you browser YouTube and watch videos? Do you use a regular web browser?

How does it work?

Thank you for helping me understand.
That's not how the market works.
> The corporations are now able to invisibly offload those costs onto their workers like never before.

The cost of commuting (train tickets or petrol, wear and tear on cars), the time it takes, and side costs like sometimes purchasing a coffee or lunch all outweigh the extra utility costs by working from home (WFH). And people can often claim some WFH expenses on their taxes.

The ability to work flexible hours, and spend more time with family, as well as running small errands/chores during the day is also worthwhile.
The difference between representation in units of right angles (1/4 cycles), and cycles is just a matter of bumping the exponent up or down two clicks. So cycles / turns and radians suffice.

I suppose it is in solutions to differential equations where radians become important.
I live in Germany and I have the exact opposit experience from everything you just said. the only people that use "drei" or "halb fünf" etc. are those one generation older than me, and everyone says "null Uhr" or "vierundzwanzig Uhr" (depending on which day-crossing you're referring to), I have honestly never before heard the phrase "12 Uhr Mitternacht". "Die Party geht bis 24 Uhr" oder "..bis 0 Uhr". Nobody says "die Party geht bis 12 Uhr Mitternacht", do they?

I guess it depends on where you live exactly in D/A/CH shrug

I live in Europe and I never learned anything other than that Sunday is the first day of the week. It's only very recently that I'm starting to notice an insistence that Monday is the first day. From my perspective, ISO 8601 seems to be the cause of that, and having an ISO standard on your side is certainly strengthening that position, but I think it's simply wrong.

Of course ISO 8601 didn't just drop out of thin air, but what caused it? I think it's a misunderstanding mixed with ignorance. Ignorance of the fact that the Jewish Sabbath, referred to everywhere in the Bible, is on Saturday, combined with people reading in the Ten Commandments about observing the Sabbath on the last day of the week and associating that with their own church attendance on Sunday, which they then conclude must be the last day of the week.

A more thorough reading of the Bible would have set them straight, as would some knowledge about history or other religions.

I actually used to think that Monday as the first day of the week was just a corporate thing. I first noticed it when I started working and work agendas were surprisingly insistent on starting on Monday. But I figured that was because the weekend is meaningless to the work week, so why not just lump it all together at the end? And then I learned about ISO 8601 and was completely flabbergasted that this was an official standard.
Here it is asked whether appearance makes any difference in professional setting, but comments seem to be diverged from the question. Young people seem to exaggerate the role of their appearance, it might make a slight difference when you first trying to find a job, but after that all that is left is your experience and talent. I can't imagine getting fired for being ugly or landing (and then staying at) a job for being attractive.
I too prefer my home office, high performance, high capacity mini-tower, three LCDs, mechanical keyboard, two desks, one with the computer another for reading, designing, etc. The best part is the relative quiet environment. Having worked mostly in open offices, the never ending noise and interruptions kept me less productive than in my home office.

I dislike working on a laptop for extended periods of time, the screen is too close and the keyboards no match for my preferred mechanical keyboard. If you attach a screen and keyboard, then what's the point? You might as well have a system you can upgrade and fix and typically costs no more.
Absolutely remote only.

I have zero desire to go back to ab office.
My own experience is that confidence trumps everything. There are people who really don't know that much (in multiple fields, not just Dev) but they are either completely un self-aware or they don't care and simply portray rock solid confidence.

Perhaps some fields demand this like marketing where certain sorts of marketing are hard to quantify/value objectively so you need to show confidence so that the department keeps its funding!
Re(exp(ix)).

Using degrees, turns, etc instead of radians, is like using 10^y instead of e^x (where y=x/ln(10)). Useful for many practical things, but useless for a lot of math applications, especially involving differential equations, complex numbers etc.

Reducing time spent interviewing and onboarding candidates might not have anything to do with company loyalty. Some of us don't enjoy the process and take steps to reduce the amount of time spent on it.
They probably just don't care at this point. It's an old cold case and the killer is likely dead at this point. They aren't likely to use any resources on it, even if they're getting tips... unless someone political gets involved due to the high profile.
That's where lookarounds help:

grep -oP 'start: \K\d+(?= end)'

`\K` is kinda similar to lookbehind (but not exactly same as it is not zero-width), and particularly helpful for variable length patterns.

If you need to process further, you can make use of `-r` option in `ripgrep` or move to other tools like sed, awk, perl, etc.
> The line to see QEII's coffin was 5 miles long, with a wait time of 13 hours. Clearly some people really were interested in the queen

I'm not a monarchist but I queued (11.5 hours). I wanted to pay my respects to her as a person who had been a central figure in Britain for my entire life. I also believed that many other people would feel the same, and it was a chance to be a part of this large ad-hoc community.

I also believe that for all the faults of the monarchy, and considering as an example the massively polarising debate around Brexit, that the British would not be able to easily create a better system without setting off some intense and destructive national tensions.
The nature and capabilities of these products makes me significantly less forgiving towards these sorts of mistakes, however.

When you're short, perhaps you should get into sailing: You can buy a much cheaper boat! When you're 190+cm (~6'3"+) most boats under 33 feet or so will not have enough headroom. At the same time, longer boats get exponentially more expensive.
I think you're mixing things here. The western world, the part of the world that bet on renewables, has reduced their dependency on coal.

For the rest of the world that is not the case. It's very easy and fast to build a coal plant and pretty much every country has access to the raw material (independency). For the most part you don't need a specialized workforce either, which you do need for nuclear. It's also not intermittent like solar and wind and the supply chains for solar and wind wouldn't have been able to keep up anyway.
I think windows encrypts more and more by default.

TPMs are not unlocked if they can't validate the boot chain (live cd), so you'd need the disk password (and full user password).

> It is really too bad that zoning and the construction of the towers prevents them from being transformed into housing, be it affordable/subsidized or not.

Yeah, America is actually crazy with it's zoning. It's interesting to think how different and more healthily laid out the country would be if zoning didn't constrain every single building. But pretty soon all real estate will be owned by BlackRock and Berkshire Hathaway, so who knows what the future of land use and ownership is going to be like.
You could replace the battery and/or sell them
That's a great summary!
Hope and fear are opposite sides of the same coin. Trump's slogan "Make America Great Again" was explicitly hopeful, but the hope of populism always rests on a fear of (and disgust for) modernity and its implied future. Obama's message of hope was also predicated on the ideal of moving American culture away from fear, in that case fear of the persistence of America's past. Fear of progress vs. fear of regress. People buying into hope are by definition buying into the mitigation of fear.
I got a refurbished iPhone SE 2nd version (2020) for my wife and she's happy about it so far. It only costs $200 which is nice. It's bigger than the other phones, but at this price I can't complain.
I don't know what books you've read, but the ones I have read don't have pages which are 0.6 meters wide like my monitor. And paper newspapers, which come the closest of any medium I have used, use many columns per page to avoid ridiculous column widths. We can debate whether the optimal column width is closer to 50 characters or closer to 150 characters, but at almost 400 characters we're so far outside of what studies find comfortable that the discussion just becomes silly, IMO.
Same SoC was used in the HomePod and other later released devices which is why this phone got longer than normal support.

> It seems most companies here are stuck in the 80s and dedicate next to zero effort to their web ordering process.

I'm so glad we can order from mcmaster here in canada, even though shipping is two days and usually min 30 USD even for tiny orders. All local industrial suppliers are truly stuck in the 80s. They have a paper catalog, without prices (if you're lucky you can get a PDF too). If you want prices, you have to call a salesperson, or send an email with an item list and wait a day or two to get a quote back. Then you get your quote, and some items are in stock, some others in stock "nearby" (next day delivery), others are backorder (1-X weeks). Then you have a lengthy phone or email back and forth to try and figure out what's in stock as a replacement.

So yeah, McMaster whenever possible and I'll gladly (have my employer) pay more for it. Shout-out to Misumi, too, however. I do mostly prototyping and I use so much of their customizable items, like rotary shafts. Much cheaper and faster than doing a drawing, sending it out to 3-8 local shops to try to find one that is quiet enough jobwise to take on a tiny one-off project and waiting 4 weeks for it, at a high price.
I'm talking about comment quality.

EDG, right after having implemented export, successfully proposed to remove it from the standard as it was hard to implement and mostly useless!
More and more school districts are teaching coding as kids grow up, so they already know it is a skill they can use for work. Just like everything else they learned in school. And those who love it are pursuing for work, while those who do not are going other directions.

All of that seems fine to me - it may be worth considering that when coding is integrated into your worldview as just one tool among many, not everyone will pick it out as the tool they want to dedicate their life to. And based on how many angry, cynical, burnt-out coders exist in our industry... the fact that some young people are not pursuing it may be a healthy choice.
Looks beautiful. Can I see the execution history along with response status?
