> std::vector has 10 constructors, they can't have different names

Except you can have static member functions (calling private constructors) if you do want that. Of course that doesn't compose as well as overloaded constructors which e.g. lets all constructors for a type T be accessed via std::vector<T>::emplace_back().

Hacker News has a general disdain for any specialized non-technical power centres in an org.
Yes, I know. It was a joke :)
Yeah, that part was laughable. No one in Numenor has seen an elf in 100s of years. One elf shows up, and all of a sudden the trade unions think they'll lose all their jobs to her
On the other hand the show's attitude is overall middling-positive about the elvish imperial state - and on top of that Galadriel's multi-century War on Terror is ultimately justified.

I don't think the story is coherent enough to be making a real political statement, even if a few scenes gesture wildly at a few vague (and contradictory) political ideas.
As someone who occasionally has to deal with on-prem projects, I sometimes wish I could just use self-service and acquire VPSes as needed to solve the need for resources, as I can in my personal projects.

Instead, I find myself being slowed down greatly: "Having a log shipping solution would be nice here, but I cannot set it up, because there's not enough RAM. Static code analysis? Not enough RAM. Another back end API instance for that new front end we're working as a replacement for the old one? Not enough RAM. Wanting to test how well scheduled processes run overnight with larger amounts of data? Too few CPU cores. Want more container images stored in your own Nexus instance? Not enough disk space. Want another database instance for CI or testing destructive migrations? Not enough of anything."

Which is the problem that the cloud largely solves, at the expense of way much money spent than necessary. But hey, when you have to deal with red tape to get more resources on-prem, that's just a way of managing the overall process and manages risks that you might not care about in the moment when you "just want to get things done"; albeit that's not to share that you shouldn't care about them.

So there are definitely problems with either approach (even cloud setups might have to go through someone and Jira/Redmine issues, as opposed to self-service), albeit at the end of the day most of those feel social/economical - after all, those large corps need their cloud service profit margins.
After 40, it gets much harder, as almost all women are subfertile at 40 and half of them are already sterile.

Nobody should argue that the show is accurate to the source material. However, this article hides behind a veil of "fact" to really just complain about the things they don't like the show. There are huge gaps of knowledge about what is happening in the Second Age so there are all kinds of things that could be happening (elves watching mordor? Maybe. Elrond buddy-buddy with the Dwarves? He had to learn Khuzdul somehow.) but the article cherry picks what it likes and what it doesn't, complaining about there being no evidence of some things while saying that the lack of information about other events is okay because they like the outcome.

Assumptions made about what the Elves could have been doing during this time period in Eregion? The author makes them sound absurd and completely outside of what was written.
Whatever the Harfoots are doing? That's okay because the author likes their storyline on the show

If you don't like the show that is 100% okay, I think the show is a 7/10 at best and sometimes it dips well below that, but don't hide that distaste behind a call for literary purity.
I don't what's the motivation for making it iOS only. It makes more sense to choose web platform like another of their products learnsynth (https://learningsynths.ableton.com/).
Neither your source nor your list come close to justifying a €30k salary difference. And your source already includes your list.

They do mention gut biome in response to one of the comments there:

Haha sorry my bad
Do note the latency issues don't apply to Starlink. That's only a problem with geostationary satellites that are used by all other providers. Starlink has roughly equivalent latency to a terrestrial commercial wifi/cell service.

What wider audience do you want? LOTR has been a solid part of pop culture for over 20 years now, ever since the movies came out.

I'd argue that the vocal internet-based fanboys are the minority, so while I truly can respect the integrity you'd prefer they take with the source material... I can also see why they would not worry about it and just make a show that they believe will be well liked by the more general audience.

In the end, I'm sure they'll do the same thing we software folk do when your audience has mixed feelings about your product - listen to all sides and then choose who they want to make happy and react accordingly.
In my experience here in Germany, Signal usage has increased drastically in the last two years. When my daughter started a new school, I got enlisted in the parents group on Signal. Previously, parent groups or anything similar was an exclusive WhatsApp territory.

As for Telegram, people mostly use it to consume news. It basically replaced RSS readers for common people. Although its install base is relatively high, I have yet to receive a single private message over Telegram.
Since the advent of web 2.0, people often interact with media in more ways than looking at its thumbnail.
That's been my experience. I like the show and have largely tried to ignore purist grognards. It's hard when they seem to be well-represented in the media and discussion around the show, but I've managed to go right on enjoying it in spite of their endless negativity.
Does he use a framework like react + three.js, plain three.js, or raw canvas, I wonder?
The unexplained ethnicity in the "fair skin" elves and the main character feminist undertones was very disingaging.

I just wanted that archaic ancient feeling LotR was to escape to.
You can parse text instantly too, just probably has a limit of up to a few words that you can perceive "at once" as you say. Editing a whole 3 pages at once is the same as saying in photoshop you can edit a whole magazine worth of images at once, you also can't.

As with anything the shorter the feedback loop the better. The difference being that an image has an information density which is much higher than text, "image worth 1000 words", and you can make sense of it easier.

If you want to edit lots of text and see if it flows well quickly, some other ways would involve mapping the textual representation to something we can perceive quicker. The same way sometimes systems will have different sound tones for different actions, making a skilled operator able to detect mistakes by "listening" to the UI. If you can represent textual changes in an aggregated visual form, you might get what you describe.

For example if you could make nice grammar produce a nice musical sound when "read" by a computer program, you could potentially assess for correct grammar quicker by listening to the whole thing in much less time than you'd take reading it.
Does you spouse feel the same way? If yes, then you have still a chance. If I was you I wouldn't waste time and go to the next IVF clinic and get started. It's not cheap (~10k in total) but your spouse could literally get started with a weeks notice, and with a bit of luck you guys will have several eggs of hers retrieved, then fertilised on the same day with your sperm and hopefully a few embryos growing. By day 5 you'll end up with a hopefully a few mature eggs of which probably 2 (because of your spouse's age) will be put back into her. The whole procedure is super straight-forward and pain free. If you guys don't have any fertility issues apart from general risk of age then your chances are very good that at least one of the two eggs if not both will develop into a beautiful little baby. If you get started today then you can literally have a child 10 months later.

Source: my wife worked on the fertility clinic of an NHS hospital during her training and was fascinated by how easily this whole thing works and how far we've come to help struggling couples to get children.

EDIT:

Sorry I wanted to add one more thing. There are some quick suggestions floating around here that you could just find a new partner. I don't think that is as easy as people say. It takes time to build an emotional connection with someone strong enough for both people wanting to create kids together. You might waste another 2 years of your life to just find that person if not longer.

Also... unless your spouse is dead against children it's just plain disrespectful to her. She is also a human being who deserves happiness and you guys have found each other and if you love her and she is also open to having kids now then you should definitely try to have kids with her. Imagine you have a daughter one day who is 40 years old with a partner that wants kids. You wouldn't want that guy to treat your daughter the way others suggest here. Also, fathering children is a process, we don't like talking about it but there are many things which can go wrong. If I was you I wouldn't want to go through any painful issues with someone who I just met recently. If you and your spouse love each other you can support each other through whatever happens. That is important as well.
Shhh. Local storage is a secret. The modern internet economy is based on profiting from "on demand" content delivered over a connection that can be monitized... and cut off for non-payment. Privately-hosted content like CDs or hard drives will soon be outlawed. Buy a NAS now while ypu still can.

You know what is even better than wearing noise-cancelling headphones and not being interrupted?
Not having to wear them at all because there simply is no noise nor any source of interruption.

This message really reads like the Idiocracy trailer. Time and effort that you'll put in helping and educating your children is much more important than them going to a top 5% school.
Token specifically labeled elves as fair skinned. Why divert from the source material and change that?
It's pretty much that. Cashing in on nostalgia in some form has kicked into overdrive since halfway 2010s. Not necessarily financial success either (as indicated by many of these projects running massive losses).
You've just described my life. Thanks for the perspective, That empty feeling was very confusing for me. I've something to look forward too!

I hate that internet is becoming more common on flights. One of my favorite things about flying is that it's a good chunk of time where you disconnect and don't worry about emails or messages.

Just sit back and watch a movie or listen to music. Or catch up on sleep.
> I haven't encountered anything that has made me think this was a different "universe," but the general "feel" of the show is vastly different from Tolkien's writing.

I don't 100% agree on your take that Tolkein's stories were outright chauvanistic, but I do agree that the tone of the show is different to the books and the movies to its detriment. Rings of Power does not feel like an Epic in the genre sense, like Beowulf, which was a genre and style that Tolkein knew very well. The show feels far too...casual, the dialogue too sitcom-y at times (the dwarf scenes are brutal), and the world too clean and empty. When there are "epic" scenes, they end up feeling more like Disney or power rangers stuff (akin to Legolas riding the shield down the steps, I must admit).

While the effects are, at times, fairly incredible,I also think the writing has been an obvious weakness. The show is just kind of floating along in permanent exposition land. Only when a certain "dark land" is finally created does it actually start to have any stakes at all, but that is 5/6s of the way through the season already. By focusing on 5 distinct storylines for most of the show they keep everything in the shallows.
I think this is essentially the major theme of this book:

<<1) I still spend a lot of time with friends and can do most of my personal hobbies/activities on weekends. My wife and I are good at sharing the load. You don't need 2 parents watching kids 100% of the time.

I think this is one of the biggest factors in terms of successful child rearing. I am relatively lucky in that aspect that we seem to make it work ( 9/10 -- we just had a longer conversation about it; clearly due to miscommunication some expectations were not conveyed openly enough ), but everyone's situation may be a little different and accommodation may be needed to find appropriate balance.

<< 3) You actually like hanging out with your own kids. I talk to a lot of people who are anchored to some negative experience they had 10 years ago babysitting for someone else's kids, as if that was representative of parenting life. It's not at all. At the end of the day, I actually rush to finish up my work so I can have more kid time. It's fun.

Full agreement here. That was the second time I was reminded what vicarious really means.
I've gotten SMS messages from iPhone users. In some Apple centric areas (rich people or people who think/want to pretend they're rich), I think iMessage is the default.

Fine by me. If they want a better experience, I have almost every messaging app on the Dutch market bridged to my Matrix server so I don't care, they'll just have to live with the lack of features if they want to chat with me (or install something like Signal).

I don't care about RCS and other ISP standards that exist to squeeze more money out of texting. I'll use Telegram/Signal/WhatsApp calling before I'll use my phone app because my subscription doesn't include free minutes (and I barely call anyway) so I've gotten the benefits of tech like WiFi calling through VoLTE for years before ISPs bothered sending their VoLTE profiles to my phone.
I have most of my friends using some messenger app and based on that I run―because I basically have to run―Whatsapp and Signal myself. But those are all people I know. What would you use but SMS when contacting people you don't?

Typically, if I try to reach someone but they don't answer I'll follow up with an SMS to explain what I tried to call for. If it's a co-worker, or an acquaintance, I'll send an SMS to make sure they receive my message. SMS is more reliable, doesn't require you to know which apps the other party runs, and it comes through to the recipient as SMS is a basic service in the telecom networks.

When I get to know a new person there's a transition to "oh, you're on $APP too", and I might starting moving non-urgent messages to $APP. But if you don't know the other party well or there's a question of reliability, what is an alternative backbone for messaging if not SMS?
This post inspired me to at least try turning off auto correction. I feel like it is fighting me at times and now I intend to find out if it ever really helped me and I didn't notice it.

I wonder if the default slide to type being ON has any bearing on this?

Turning auto capitalization off too, that I definitely fight with and it rarely makes a difference.
How interesting. The more things change, the more they stay the same.

"Photoshop for Text" is, arguably, called "Typesetting". Aldus Pagemaker and Quark XPress were both quite popular at this task.
I've practically never not had kids. We had our first at age 15. I still was able to graduate university on time, teach myself to program beyond the cs minor, learn new technology, go camping and hiking, and even got a couple kayaks eventually to go out with the kids. My trick is starting my day before 5am, since high school.

Having a great partner helped, being poor as shit didn't. I did have to take jobs that paid more now (but still crap) and eschew jobs that would pay low to start but offer growth. I couldn't save a dollar until my late twenties.
Never read any of the books, so I don't really care! I didn't see the southlands king turning into Sauron before the last episode, apparently many did, but I think a lot just read about it on the Internet. Just from watching it, it's not obvious at all (except of course, what are the odds that Galadriel stumbles upon the king of the southlands by accident?). And I loved the ending credits soundtrack of the final episode! What a great way to turn Tolkien's poem into a haunting song.

I think the show is hitting the spot for people only vaguely familiar with the lore. The greedy look on the faces of the elves in the end looking at the rings was well done. I wonder though how they can make the next seasons interesting, now that we know it is all about getting dwarfs and then humans equipped with rings.

I must say, I was positively surprised by the show. I had expected much much worse.
Because I vouched for it. Turn on "showdead" in your settings and look at his profile.

That depends what stage of the interview you're at - you can perfectly reasonably start the process with as many as 15 or 20 and just plan to winnow them down. You definitely wouldn't want that many on site interviews, but if you just do a recruiter phone screen and hiring manager call for each, that's still <40 hours per week. If it turns out everybody loves you and wants to advance you to the next round, just pick the top 4-6 (or however many you feel like you can handle) that have the best combination of hiring manager + company/product and move forward with those.
would shell commands not be a good way to do that ?
Dr. Collins didn't ask for their careers to be destroyed. He asked for a rebuttal (or "take down of it's premises" in his words), which was easy because The Great Barrington Declaration was the most poorly devised policy proposal I had ever seen. I'm not surprised that Dr. Prasad pretends not to understand the difference.

It said that only nursing homes should be quarantined when the vast majority of elderly do not live in nursing homes. It encouraged everyone else to get infected as soon as possible, completely ignoring the fact that vaccines were being developed, which meant that later exposure would be far better than earlier exposure.

One of the signatories of The Great Barrington Declaration actually did try to destroy a Caltech professor's career, but Dr. Prasad pretends the reverse happened. https://mobile.twitter.com/lpachter/status/13770484698655580...
Ask HN: Book on Number Theory and Cryptography
I am searching for an introdutory book on number theory combined with cryptography. So a primer on prime numbers, generating them, algorithms like extended Euclidean, Miller-Rabin and so on. Preferably with a German translation but that's not a must.
I don't know about Rings of Power, I have never read the books and it's been forever since I've seen the LoTR movies, but in terms of HOTD, it is my understanding based on the Alt Shift X videos on YouTube that analyze the show and how accurate it is to the books (which I have not read either) that it is not bad at all? Some things are different, but in the most recent episode for example, they mentioned that one change (Viserys Targaryen's final years and death) was welcome by Martin to such a degree he said he'd rewrite the book to match if he could. So the writers of HOTD I think are doing a good job being inspired by the source material and I am so far enjoying it more than I have enjoyed several seasons of GoT.
Somewhat disputing definitions - he’s talking about the low stakes idle hedonistic “happiness” from commonly thought of as pleasurable things (brunch, camping, food/drinks with friends, etc.) vs. the type of more difficult stuff that while maybe less pleasant in the day to day moment is often more fulfilling over longer time horizons. Not worth arguing about the word meaning rather than just taking the underlying argument for what it is (imo).

One take away I had from Tim Kreider’s “I Wrote This Book Because I Love You” was that everyone he met who was older and unmarried had a certain aloofness about them or continued search for meaning. This largely wasn’t present in those that had families. We have a strongly selected source of fulfillment baked in as part of the human experience, it may not be for everyone but it’s probably not something that should be dismissed lightly.

Looking at old people and what they regret (and what they value) at the end of their life can be a way to help make fulfilling life decisions, or at least try to steer things in that direction.
Up to relatively recently (a few years ago) it was not possible to transfer numbers from one provider to another.

They are now simply treating Russia with the same lack of dignity they have treated private customers in Europe and USA with for over a decade. A substantial amount of what's sold to western customers on e.g. AliExpress, BangGood, GearBest etc. are product lots that didn't pass QA. They are dumping e-waste on us, and we pay for it. A fantastic trade trick.
