Great product and new features! Will definitely try it out when I get a chance. While I am right in your target user base, over a decade ago I built https://zetabee.com/text for myself and even though there are now so many better solutions to the text outlining problem, it is just too difficult for me to switch. Not sure what your keyboard binding for collapse/expand is but I played with backtick (single key) and loved it because it just feels natural and I never type ` in my notes.

Long ago, I tried to make a better autocomplete feature so people with speech disabilities have fewer buttons to push. Here's what I did - https://ktype.net/wiki/research:articles:progress_20110209 - basically broke down tweets into n-grams (1-4) and then used the 5 most likely next words as suggestions. If I were to do this today, I would still try to get a large volume of text in my target use case (what do most of your users type? Tech project notes? home construction items? grocery lists) and break them down into large lists of 2-3 n-grams. Then ask GPT3 (or equivalent) for 3 possible suggestion for next 1-2 words and save them. Compress and hard-code this list into the app (or alternatively make it download/update from your site infrequently).

If you would like me to explain more, please feel free to reach out!
Very nice. Now I can look at Prague and think about how much I miss it :) went in April and had such a great time.
USA here, filled with ridiculous information each day from the mass media news. Please do not repeat this escalation talk about nuclear threats. I was reading some news site in German and saw the day that a "threat" was made.. by the Prime Minister of Turkmenistan or someone similar. It is a "brain off" meme and an escalation.

End This War, not Endless War
You mean “to finger out”. ;)
If Russia was going to invade another country he would presumably not choose one that is in NATO.
I love your spirit and also like the insights you’ve shared!

Yet, I’m afraid it’s not really an option for most us (including OP I guess) to move to West Norway.
The naive (x+y)/2 returns the wrong number for x=UINT_MAX and y=UINT_MAX, for a trivial counter example.
Anyone can create a fake 'seized' page.
They most likely ignored the high-risk one (assuming FGM), because it is unthinkable of and is not even legal to perform in most western countries. Is it even a thing outside of a few ultra-conservative and religious countries/communities in Africa and Middle East?
> It just collapses the circles.

You not familiar with how eyes close?
But doesn't this have the same overflow issue, e.g. if R is a large positive number and L is a large negative one?
Vit D here, 80ug, double the dose I take in summer.

Live in Norway 300km from northern polar circle.

From what I've understood from Huberman Lab podcast, sun affects mood mainly in two ways :
1. Vit D production,
2. Circadian Rhythm timing control.

1. First one can be supplemented. I use 80ug, as 40ug that I use in summer doesn't cut it. Found this dose trough experimenting. Too much feels like having overdosed on coffee. Too little and I don't have energy to do stuff unless I really must do it.

2. Circadian Rhythm - recommend listening to Huberman's episodes on Sleep (around 4 eps), Dopamine and motivation, and Depression.
Not getting enough light in the morning makes the circadian rhythm drift, which messes your sleep, which is your daily psychotherapy.
To help prevent it, you can exercise in the morning. I'm planning to buy a light therapy light on Black Friday and use it during morning 'Sun Salutations' (yoga exercise). A breakfast and warm shower in the morning can also help stop the drift.

Another thing is lights control. Phillips Hue lights can be scheduled to glow dimmer past 18:00 (I'm assuming you sleep 22 to 5:30). At night just two very dim lamps. Bathroom lamp at my place is very bright, so if I have to shower past 19, I shower with lights off and avoid hot showers in the evening.

The TV I have has 4 screen brightness &color tone settings. I've toned down brightness on all of them and one is very dark (and red tinted) for usage past 18 or 19.

Not saying that this is what will help you, but hope you can find something working for you.

P.S. If I don't want to get up early on the weekends, I at least make sure I go out for a walk before 9 o'clock. Even if hangover will put me back in bed, the inner clock got the message - at 22 we need to sleep again.
At least the training will help their emotional state - to feel prepared, ready and confident that they'll have all options at their disposal in the event of an invasion is not without utility. Plus, Russia's invasion of Ukraine and the Ukrainian civilians effective resistance shows how even untrained civilians can be an asset, with the implication that they could have been even more effective with some training.

The risk, IMHO, is that you'll get folks doing a day or two of training thinking that makes them experienced combat troops. Overconfidence will certainly hurt you in a real conflict. (The same applies to those who think playing Counter-Strike counts as combat experience).
I prefer them to Google Maps. I even like the look better.
> "Well if someone ... then its game over". They are not entirely wrong

They're not at all wrong, and your argument has no merit. As a defender, I'd pray that attackers use toolkits like the ones you linked that are essentialy utter trash and trivially detected (as is anything ebpf-based).

Good kernel/userspace rootkits do not use ebpf and can be very very hard to detect.

In 2015, fully autonomous driving was a year away. We will see. Though I don't mind copilot automating simpler plumbing tasks personally. To replace human programmers, it'd have to replace mathematicians first.
exactly what Boston said -
the conversation started with someone (you?) saying it's ironic Onion fans hate the bee.

It's not ironic, the bee is hated because it's in favor of Big Lie conspiracies, anti trans hate, and anti gay hate.

Nobody was saying they should be illegal.

You posting pro - Bee content makes me feel unwelcome here, since it's advocating for direct harm. Again, not illegal, no real world consequences, but I don't want to be on this site anymore.

I can only hope stronger people make you uncomfortable enough to move to truth social or mastodon or something and I will be able to return to a site I used to love.
Or I could use a service that employs an army of content moderators to ensure that I am likely never to be placed at legal liability due to content someone else uploaded to the platform.

I tried Mastodon about two or three years ago; I used the largest instance I could find that claimed not to allow Adult content, but which still relayed other instances. I was shown pornographic content as soon as I logged in; some of it illegal in my country.

So I tried another instance that made similar claims. Same problem.

Maybe it's better now. Maybe it's no longer awash in loli hentai or cartoon beastiality.
If a football fan actually does buy the team, and finds out they could not, in fact, run it better, they might amend their story to, "Actually I just thought it would be cool to own a team," in order to save face.

I think that's a more likely scenario: much like the hypothetical football fan, in a fit of zeal he said, "I could run this better!" If the goal were simply to flex his bank account, there are so many better ways he could have done that that I think we could safely assume he would have picked one of those instead. He may not be as smart as he thinks he is, but he isn't stupid.
So technically your cost of living isn‘t really zero, you just have plenty of passive income that covers it.
Finland and Sweden are not yet part of NATO. The risk is far more for them than Poland.
They're probably my favorite OSM map style, especially the outdoor variant.
Accounting for the Human Cost
Copyright is indeed pretty fucked. Megacorps repackaging and selling products created by indies is also pretty fucked. I'm pro "freedom of information" but we need laws around the sale of information to prevent that sort of thing.

Do you have citations for those claims apart from videos made by a doctor ?
It certainly sounds very interesting although sunbed fans should be most healthy people on earth in such case.
There is another org that works on "Moonshots" that is not dis-similar.

Smart is in no way an adequate replacement for having your shit together. It can temporarily mask it, long term, no way.

Python, for example, has arbitrary precision integers. That means that it is theoretically possible to represent any whole number in Python, at least assuming your computer has enough memory to support it. Under the hood, the `int` object can have several different implementations depending on how large the number is. So small numbers will be represented one way, and larger numbers might be implemented as 64-bit integers, but very large numbers are implemented as an array of other integers that can grow arbitrarily large. You can think of the array as being like base-10 representation (so 17,537 might be represented as [1, 7, 5, 3, 7]), although in practice much larger bases are used to make the calculations quicker.

Obviously maths with the smaller representations will be quicker than with this array representation, so the interpreter does some work to try and use smaller representations where possible. But if you tried to, say, add two 64-bit signed ints together, and the result would overflow, then the interpreter will transparently convert the integers into the array representation for you, so that the overflow doesn't happen.

So the first poster said that the default merge sort implementation on Wikipedia was buggy, because it doesn't protect against overflows (assuming that the implementation used fixed-sized integers). The second poster pointed out that if the implementation used these arbitrary precision integers, then there is no chance of overflow, and the code will always work as expected.

You can look up "bigint" which seems to be the term of art for implementations of arbitrary precision integers in most languages. You can also read a bit about how they're implement in Python here: https://tenthousandmeters.com/blog/python-behind-the-scenes-...
In most areas of the US recklessly discharging a firearm into the air would also get you in serious trouble (even in rural areas) along with a (lesser) murder charge if you killed someone.

Yes, you can definitely cast an empty ballot (at least in New York).
It sounds like for you in particular, yes, since you seem to want to go out of your way to find any way to violate copyright, even when the terms are intentionally generous. Indeed such a person should not work in this industry, though I'm sure there are plenty of employers who are happy to have you steal for them, so you will be able to regardless.
You're better off with a GP for med management and a licensed CBT therapist who has a deep understanding of Barkley's take on adhd. Literally decision fatigue minimalization, externalization of task salience and planning, and proper medical management. I appreciate the attempt to monetize what Barkley regards as compassionate helpers, but with adhd, the vigilance is way to high already--read bullshit meter.
Here it's half past three and the sun set an hour ago - and polar night starts on the 28th.

My silly point was mostly that solar has its limits. Here we have polar day in summer - so the sun does not set (at midnight or otherwise).

Ask HN: Is anyone able to download their Twitter data at the moment?
I have been trying to download my data but I get stuck at the e-mail verification step:

> Verify it’s you: Help us keep your data safe. To verify your identity, we need to send you a verification code to ***@gmail.com

Nothing arrives, I have been waiting for ~24 hours, tried 6+ times, checked on the spam folder. I also requested help from @Twitter and @TwitterSupport but they are not responding (I guess due to the massive lay-offs?).

Is anyone else having this problem?
Have you produced anything interest that you could share using lisp/closure/common lisp?

The thing is, Terraform is the industry standard, for better or for worse. Much like Helm for Kubernetes (or Kubernetes, for that matter). If you go somewhere else, the expectation is probably that you know how to use those.
I'm sure Americans are more familiar with Nixons voice and appearance. It looked and sounded good to me.
Solar has a much higher upfront cost than coal, so it's much easier to finance a coal plant than solar one. That said, this is a better excuse for poorer, developing countries than Australia.
It's not in the realm of impossible.

>"Anyone’s that ever used macOS even once knows that things really work."

I am not a regular Mac user but I was once asked by client to port my CI/CD related script so it can work for developers who use Macs. Script involved dealing with docker among other things. After dicking around for a while I've discovered deeply nested folder created by docker that was not supposed to exist after successful script completion. Do not remember all the details but this folder was a thorn. Short of sacrificing a virgin no matter what I tried I was not able remove it. Invoking search power of Google did not help either - plenty of recipes and suggestions and none worked. Finally after giving this Mac to system gurus and them dicking with it for a day I was told that they have failed so far it is no longer worth their time and they will reinstall the OS.

Currently reading my way through the Syntopicon and the associated Great Works series.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Syntopicon

Think a 1960s version of a linking table, all printed out, and all about the 'ideas' in the Western canon.

A randomly selected sample of the categorization looks like:

Chapter 82: Same and Other: Sub Idea 3: The modes of sameness and otherness or diversity: Sub Idea 3a: Essential sameness or difference and accidental sameness or difference:

Book 7: Plato Republic, BK V, 358 360

Book 8: Aristotle Topics, BK 1 CH 5, 144 - 145

etc. for ~1/4th of a page.

Should finish up in ~2035 or so if I can keep pace.

If you ever have to write on nearly any topic, the Syntopicon is absolute pure 100% gold. You can look up just about any idea you've got and find just oodles of references going back to Homer. Its amazing.

I wish we could make a wiki based on the structure of a syntopicon instead of the structure of an encyclopedia. It'd be a lot of effort, but just an amazing undertaking to relate all of the internet via ideas instead of subjects.
I love shooting on my mom’s old Nikon FE2. Just slap a nifty fifth on and hit the streets. It’s a really great way to keep the phone at bay when on trips too - I try to limit myself to 1 roll per 5 days.
In binary search and heapsort, neither L nor R are negative - they are the number of elements in the array.
I don't see how a note from the notes app will serve as a maston server.
Yes... kinda...

I've been doing indie Mac software since around 2003. Mostly full time with some consulting mixed in. I've had varying levels of success. Generally business grew into (enough to support me and three others for a few years) until around 2012. Then down down (with very little bumps of success in-between). Since 2012 it's been just me. I make less than I would in a "real" job. Sometimes quite a bit less. Even with Bike's recent success I'm mabye making less than average US programmer.

Some of this is likely due to indie being hard. Much is also due to me being mostly programmer driven, not business driven. I am doing many stupid things business wise. But I also get to work on exactly what I want to work on.
If you haven't seen "For All Mankind" now is the time to watch the first episode.
I had the same thoughts now in regards to the Twitter layoffs. I mean Twitter still looks like a pretty trivial product that some nerds could hack together in a garage. So why more than 7000 employees? What were all these people doing?
The type that’s meant for indexing in C and C++ is called `size_t`. It is pointer-sized. In Rust it’s called `usize` and Rust does not have implicit conversions, so if you accidentally use too narrow an integer type to compute an index, at least Rust forces you to add an explicit cast somewhere.
Also the US long ago decided to make international trade a point of ensuring and reinforcing national security. Marshall plan and all that.
Seeing the new erroneous assumption being made in this post reminded me of Linus Torvalds' rant about C++ http://harmful.cat-v.org/software/c++/linus
No idea; the effect seems similar but I do prefer the real sunlight for some reason. The lamp has the advantage of being easier from a time-management perspective though; I don't actually have to stop working and so on to use it.

But I don't think that attitude is conductive to point B; taking extra care with work-life balance, getting enough exercise and decompression and so on, so I have a low threshold of just dropping what I'm doing and taking a break in the daylight :)
Having written a Forth, and a long standing interest in it... I've come to the conclusion that Forth is the crippled inverse of Lisp

They are both very minimal in their syntax, for many purposes Forth uses a space where lisp uses parenthesis to ensure the arguments are consumed by the correct functions.

However.... you can't match spaces, which leads to losing track of arguments on the stack

I can think of ways this could be handled in an IDE, but my bet on Forth includes types, and operator overloading, a language called STOIC in the 1960s.
If I block someone on one server, they are blocked on all servers for me. If some server I am in has custom emojis and stickers, and I am a discord nitro subscriber, I can reuse those emojis and stickers by posting them on other servers. Other users on that other server can see them, but cannot use them. If i change anything on my profile, it will be reflected on all servers.

There are probably tons of other cross-server relationships that I forgot to mention, simply because I only listed the first few that came to my head.
I proposed something like that a few years back: https://lwn.net/Articles/780365/

There is something to this idea ... using git as a distributed (micro-)blogging/publishing system.
Software is only going to become more ubiquitous, programmers won't run out, they'll just shift up to higher level abstractions and more diagnostic/administrative work. Think "AI doctor" and "AI manager" rather than code slinger.
I get what you're saying but I don't think they're analogous. If nothing else, strlen is defined only with null-terminated strings; this comes in both the spec itself, as well as the documentation of pretty much every implementation you find. Whereas most binary search implementations don't claim they only work under some particular inputs. (I think there are likely more differences too, but this is sufficient to make my point.)

More generally, I feel like the thought process of "it's not broken if it works fine for inputs that occur 99% of the time" is an artifact of how little attention we pay to correctness, not something that is intrinsically true. If your function breaks for inputs that are clearly within its domain without any kind of warning... it's broken, as much as we might not want to admit it. We're just so used to this happening near edge cases that we don't think about it that way, but it's true.
Would it mean “engaging in cancel culture” rather than “applying one’s culture to another person”(as in encouraging them to cancel). I think “engaging in cancel culture” would just be “cancelling (or engaging in cancel culture as you said)

I guess there’s also enculturatibg, but to take another example, what would it mean to “American Culturing” someone, I think it’s just nonsensical
It is the shite way the Paypal and I think Amazon does this : they put the code at the start of the SMS, other OTP providers sent it in the middle/end of the SMS, so even if someone set the display of text messages as 'enabled' on the locked screen , they are truncated and you can't see the code (but not in the case of Paypal)- you need to unlock the screen to read the full text
YMMV as some SMS apps display it full.
I'm unsurprised that so many comments so far relate to the UK - I became acutely aware of how bad this was for me in 2019, but have definitely suffered the effects since before that.

Vitamin D and bright lights give a bit of short-term placebo benefit, but I haven't been able to detect any longer term uplift.

Even in the good weather months (... OK, weeks) we have, I spend time wishing I was elsewhere for the usual political/social/economic reasons, but in the winter I double down on trawling emigration blogs looking for a way out.
How to Communicate During a Crisis?
Possibly a tangent, but what is the "dot notation" described in:

First of all, that's not what I said. What I said was all of them choosing to miss out on influencing the customers of a popular (and law abiding) property indicates way too much market power, which almost certainly means us consumers are getting screwed on multiple other fronts by these companies.

Second of all, wanting companies to choose ethics over making money is an illogical position because ethics vary greatly across the population and it's only a matter of time before someone abuses market power to get big enough to be able to choose their ethics over their profitability.That you happen to agree with the ethics advertised by today's market power abusers does not mean you always will. Can you imagine if Walmart started shoving their founder's staunch conservative christian values in your face? How about all the business owners that are conservative muslims, do you want those ethics being chosen?
It is far better to regulate the most important ethical beliefs of the day through the democratic system of our government and have businesses with so little market power that they don't dare inpose their personal values on the rest of us for fear of losing their customers to the myriad of competitors biting at their heels in the market.
Remember we are all human and cope in different ways. Authoritarian approaches are barbaric.
