Well one problem is the viscous cycle. Because heating less people will open the window less which means it gets more humid and mold starts growing. People should install hygrometer and keep it in the save level. Then low room temperature should be fine.

> the living standard in developed world has to drop.

That depends on how you define "living standards." For example, the USA can probably afford to lose a LOT of consumer products spending while still raising HDI metrics by simply reallocating how resources are committed. We prioritize spending in a lot of places that don't really return much in the way of physical or spiritual well-being. Think car-dependent infrastructure which mostly just serves to raise need for spending on vehicles and infrastructure. Think fast fashion which mostly serves to accelerate trend cycles so people buy clothes more often than they did otherwise. There's a lot of consumer needs that are socially-pressured here.
We are very fortunate that on my salary we can put about £1000 a month into savings in a normal month. But in the last couple of months it's gone down to maybe £500. Partly because my partner is on maternity leave but mostly due to bills and mortgage going up.

I feel hugely sorry for those people who's finances don't have that buffer built in. It must be a scary time when there is almost nothing left to cut and you are still being expected to pay more.
This is how I've seen most professional writers work too, except they edit quick in-place copies of previous iterations in case some path doesn't work out. Should sound somewhat familiar to programmers.

It's as bad or better. Which shouldn't be the case because Europe is far more dependent on Russian oil/gas than the UK ever was.

Hard to say. I’m in Ireland (Republic), which while technically part of the EU is economically close to the UK.

Prices have gone up a lot.

Just as an example, I used to get skyr (type of thick yoghurt) for €1.99/kg at Aldi in January. Now it’s going for €2.79/kg and it seems like it’ll just keep getting more expensive.

> There is conclusive evidence that blue light does not affect sleep in any way as large as people expect. We're talking about 1 minute on average change in sleep duration.

Sleep duration and sleep quality are different. Blue light definitely affects sleep quality, as your own link shows multiple studies that found this result. The causal association of blue light and sleep quality is pretty solid.

Time Machine was just the most visible/frequent symptom of the problem. I saw file system corruption many other times as well, and not all of it could even be repaired with macOS's built-in tools (but bizarrely, sometimes linux tools would succeed where Disk Utility failed). I remember spending an entire afternoon trying to repair a friend's iMac's root volume, and while I eventually succeeded, it took countless arcane commands only documented on StackOverflow executed in just the right sequence. I couldn't possibly replicate it.

I agree, the problems with Time Machine are greater than the underlying file system. But the underlying file system was problematic enough on its own for me to never want to touch it with a ten foot pole.
You missed the part of my post where I said that I work hard to create an environment where it’s OK to ask questions.

My point is that it’s not just about the language you use. Not saying “just” isn’t a magic bullet. Regardless of the phrasing, there’s a lot more pedagogical work that needs to take place to build a good environment.
In my experience (as a regular biker) intersections are dangerous in two main ways:

1. The driver behind me doesn't expect me to stop and almost (or does) hit me.
2. I'm very vulnerable when first starting up and it's easy for turning drivers to miss me or for my balance to push me slightly left or right.

An Idaho stop law means that I'm able to proceed through a red light when there's no moving cars around which largely solves (2).

Additionally, in my area I can take a main street or side streets. I generally take the main road for the same reason drivers so: there's stop signs every 600ft on the side roads. If I could cruise down the side street without stopping constantly I'd be much more likely to take it which keeps me out of the traffic on the main road.
Most people don’t want you to solve their issues. They just want you to listen and understand them. If someone asks for advice, that’s another thing entirely. But I’ve learned over the years that just listening and appreciating what someone else is feeling is the most helpful thing you can do.

It's not UK, but I get the feeling this isn't so much inflation as opportunistic behavior. See grocery corporation CEOs bragging about price gouging under the cover of "inflation" during investor calls, https://pluralistic.net/2022/10/17/united-states-vs-vons/#pr...

>As Kroger CEO told his shareholders: "a little bit of inflation is always good in our business" because it lets him raise prices and "customers don’t overly react."

Over 50% of the rise in prices for groceries during the pandemic are from corporate profits. Raises in input costs (38%) and labor (7%) made up most of the rest. When the price raise is 50% increased profit during a time where a large fraction cannot afford enough to eat this is price gouging. It is extremely clear. https://www.salon.com/2022/10/19/katie-porter-pulls-out-char... https://porter.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID...
Yes of course.

Perhaps I should start by clarifying that I am talking about the number of queries the Cypher language can express, without any vendor-specific extensions, since my consideration was whether to use it as the query language for my own database. And Cypher is of course much more convenient to _type_ than SQL for expressing graph traversals - it was built for that.

With that understanding, any cypher pattern can be translated into a series of joins and projections in SQL, and any recursive query in cypher can be translated into a recursive CTE. Theoretically, SQL with recursive CTE is not Turing complete (unless you also add in window functions in recursive CTE, which I don't think any of the Cypher databases currently provide), whereas Datalog with function symbol is. Practically, you can easily write a shortest path query in pure Datalog without recourse to built-in algorithms (an example is shown in README), and at least in Cozo it executes essentially as a variant of Dijkstra's algorithm. I'm not sure I can do that in Cypher. I don't think it is doable.

The corollary to just is "should". It took me a while to accept some things aren't trivial to change and telling myself things should be a certain way is not helpful.

Almost every advice I come across on self-improvement is wrong for me. Very few people have considered my experience and limitations. Most of it is actively harmful to implement.

Funnily enough, the project management strategies I use at work are extremely helpful with this.

Given a problem (a "should"), we need ask "what needs to change", "what is required to change it", and "what is the priority" (urgency X impact). Then we can decide if this needs to be focused on right now.

:)
Agreed. Look how Java enables collaboration on large projects like FizzBuzz: https://github.com/EnterpriseQualityCoding/FizzBuzzEnterpris...
In a supermarket beverages like Lucozade should have a price tag indicating the price per 100ml so you can compare that irrespective of whether the containers are filled. Most packaged products that make sense to measure in mass or volume units work the same (but the unit required is different for spices than for flour, for vanilla essence versus water, because you don't buy 5 kilos of nutmeg or 10ml of water)
I can only agree. Have seen many systems and various tech being used and Java would be my choice for a large project as well.

Yes, blue light exposure worsens sleep quality:

We kind of even know why, because of blue light receptors in our eyes linked to hormones released in the morning to increase alertness. This is linked to the light spectrum seen at sunrise.
Interestingly this is a very effective defensive tactic for factorio. Offsetting bollards channels enemies through choke points that leave them vulnerable and predictable, as well as slowing them down.

The most common cycling injury is a right hook, where a car drives past the cyclist then turns right (into the cyclist or without enough space for them to stop). At intersections, many cars will be turning right. Allowing cyclists to proceed past the intersection before the drivers do will increase their safety.

(as an aside, right turning vehicles at intersections are allowed to behave much the same as a cyclist doing an Idaho stop - turning right on red, rolling stop)
I don't believe minorities don't drive cars or purchase alcoholic beverages. Nor do I belive they're incapable of getting an ID. They have IDs and it's not a tall ask.

That's a call for everyone to interpret "guys" as gender neutral.

> In any case, to the great bulk of the population, guys already is gender-neutral and thus inclusive, thanks in part to women who embraced it. Maybe it’s time to set it free.

I disagree with that first assertion.

While "guys" is somewhat gender neutral, as in "you guys want anything?", it's not gender neutral with something like "two guys came here earlier" (not used to include "two women came here earlier") or "guys only want one thing" (not used to mean "all people only want one thing").
Yes you are correct that not saying "just" isn't enough. But saying it often works towards eroding that environment and it's unproductive towards that. That's the point of the post, not that it's a magic bullet.
I thought about it :).

Unlike human life, a business is an artificial construct intentionally created for some specific goal. If its creators chose profit to be this goal - which often is the case, explicitly written in the company founding documentation - then that actually is the purpose of that particular business, nothing else, and nothing more, only creation of money for its creators or future owners.

I'm starting to see shrinkflation happen with staples such as flour and sugar. Have definitely noticed it now that we're preparing for the holiday bake. The price of butter has remained remarkably stable here in the States. Spices are also getting more expensive. The name brand spices have always been expensive, but now even the store brand spices are soaring in cost.
The funny part is, that it kind of tend to get worse during vacations. Not a psychologist, but guess when I try to work hard and focused, all the "pending" stuff is suppressed. On vacations in comes, I'm more relaxed, and it comes out.
But the context here aren't cases where the individuals in question are in a gray area, they're individuals that definitely were accessories to/covered up or participated in criminal activity but then get immunity in order to get the big fish. This is exactly what Huett was describing in the opening paragraphs of this article.
This is one of the places where I've been impressed with where Apple's moved over time. In the early to mid 2010s, their largely paper-based packaging seemed to lead a lot of high-ticket tech packagers to move in that direction[1] in an effort to seem like more of a premium product. Over the last few years, I've noticed a lot of that plastic being replaced with paper and adhesive, and I'd like to see other manufacturers do the same. (I recall reading that they're moving more towards materials recycling and reclamation on the electronics side of things, too, though that seems like a slower process.)

[1] - which did increase the rise of plastic films, as you note, but I wouldn't ascribe their lack of recycling to laziness but unclear instructions. Consumer recycling programs don't do a good job of explaining what they actually take, when they take things other than PET at all. Also as I understand it, recycling filter has gotten better about filtering films from waste streams, though it's not perfect.
My big problem with Java is the INSANELY bloated ecosystem where all actual business logic is hidden behind 17 different layers of abstraction. For example, if you want to see where a field of a given object originally gets its value, you may have to track that field back through 4 or five different files in order to find where the value originally came from. Its absolutely fucking maddening and makes the system as a while very difficult to reason about and makes bugs very obnoxious and time consuming (but not necessarily hard) to identify.

What's weird to me is that other languages have the exact same ability to suffer from this problem, but for whatever reason, they do not. Only Java seems to have this culture of circle jerking around patterns and idioms rhat solve problems you probably aren't or are never going to have.

The main differentiation is whether it's used to trivialise a problem someone may have, especially if you're not in the same situation as the person. The mental health one is great, in that there's so many people that will say things like "just go outside" or "just do yoga" or "just do drugs".
Interesting how single words can have such an impact. I find it jarring to hear someone begin a sentence with "So", as if they have given the current topic some thought (when 9 times out of 10 they haven't), or to hear them end a statement with ", no?" where turning a positive assertion into a question sounds somewhat underhand.

My use of "embedded" means that the whole database runs in the same process as your application. This is how SQLite works. Your application doesn't "connect" to an SQLite database in the usual sense.

Thanks for asking this question. For what it's worth, the general sentiment in the answers feels very similar to what I'm seeing in the US, where my grocery bill has gone up about 40% in the past year.

My general hypothesis has been that since grocery costs make up a relatively small percentage of overall budgets in affluent urban areas that stores have more room to increase prices. I'm curious what is happening in more urban areas where people are on tighter in budgets to begin with.
