I don't understand this brand of comment, which seem to be fairly prevalent here on HN.

Are you saying that you prefer babashka to zuo? Have you actually used zuo? Or did you only want to pontificate on another project with a potentially related goal, but without actually connecting those dots for readers of your comment?

My issue (not quite the right word, but close enough) with this kind of comment is it's kind of rude, in my opinion? Like, imagine if you were standing around with some people, and somebody said "I just learned about Zuo! It's this neat Racket alternative that's very small. It's a super cool project, and I've really enjoyed it!" And you reply with "When I want a small Lisp, I use babashka." And you don't connect it to the conversation at hand, and it's up to the other people to figure out what your point is. It's like... it's almost a non sequitur, in some sense. And comments like these seem super common here for some reason. It just kinda rubs me the wrong way, though I guess judging by their prevalence they are not seen this way by most people here, so perhaps my perception is in the wrong.
Remember that a lot of the "business acumen" for both SpaceX and Tesla has been politics and behind the scenes deals to get billions of dollars of government subsidies to prop up what would otherwise be a business that is hemorrhaging cash.

Not sure if Twitter will be able to get government subsidies to prop it up.
Why'd you stop using it?
It's really hard to trust anything about weed as a medicine because almost all of it is extremely biased by either strong interests to commercialize weed, or standard pharma companies trying to prevent anyone from coming between them and their opiod users. Interested academics simply haven't been allowed to do actual studies.
I think it's a good strategy given how people are standardizing on CCS1 in NA. They're embracing CCS1 to a large degree, offering adapters for plugging your car into a CCS charger and allowing CCS cars to charge at Superchargers.

But the connector is definitely better, so they may as well open it up in the hopes that people adopt the nicer plug and then they won't have to change it after all. Basically no reason not to given how things are going with CCS1. I certainly think from a usability perspective it would be preferable if "NACS" was the winner. CCS is not a great design.
You're always going to need a centralized ramp to convert crypto to fiat though. If everyone thinks they're scams crypto has a big problem.
Ok, we've changed to that article from https://old.reddit.com/r/youtube/comments/ymoyx3/youtube_con.... Thanks!
Rust has use cases.
Sure thing. Zoos are incredibly organized!
Yes, that last usage is a modern use based on the first one, which is why it has a negative connotation. For example:

https://www.ahdictionary.com/word/search.html?q=poach

> To take or appropriate unfairly or illegally: poaching another firm's best employees.

https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/poach?q=...

> [ T ] disapproving: to persuade someone who works for someone else to come and work for you

Again, that is the negative tone which people don't like: the idea that it's somehow infringing on the company's property rather than individuals freely engaging in normal activities. Part of why people are sensitive to that is that those same companies illegally colluded to prevent people from taking jobs, with lost wages measuring in the hundreds of millions of dollars. This didn't just come out of nowhere but is something which is in recent memory and directly or indirectly affected incomes for many people in the tech industry:

Ccs1 vs 2 comes down to the fact that the base plug (the ac part) has to be different between the two. Europe supports 3 phase because it's common there, while the NA plug doesn't, because 3 phase is unheard of in residential installations, and it has to support 120 level 1 charging.
I've never been impressed by tech startups "disrupting" boring traditional industries. Except that perhaps some of their technology problems may be interesting. But overall, you're now working/investing in a boring industry.
There’s an actual set of specification documents available to download. That’s an improvement.

Previously the only public info was their patent filings.

It also sounds like they are offering specific parts (inlets and connector cables) for sale since they are providing datasheets on them.
This has nothing to do with CO2 emissions and everything to do with particle pollution.

Our leaders do not live inside urban centers, and do not suffer from particle pollution. Or at least way less than the average citizen, and i'm not even talking about the people living near the Paris ring road, who aren't exactly the richest.

I understand if you're from the countryside (i am too) that you dislike adBlue, but think that it probably add years of living to the poorest urbanites.

I enjoyed the blog post and discussion around a very similar topic: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31890048
This is why actually if people can understand what's happening and what cryptocurrency is, this is another incident that is a very good advertisement for cryptocurrency.

Because actually the idea is that instead of relying on some third party to follow some words on paper, you trust math and computer science. You don't need the third party at all for most things, just use you own cryptocurrency wallet.

For more complex things, we can use smart contracts, which are not based on trust but actual math. The program being on-chain literally makes it impossible for them to misappropriate funds (at least without the details being in public and reviewable beforehand).
VsCode seems like a worst of both worlds. Poor performance, and not suitable for editing multi-file projects. Maybe as a compromise between a full IDE and a text editor?

Of note, I recently switched from VsCode to Sublime for editing individual files.
Your parent comment is an example Not True Scotsman [1] and circular logic.

So after seven days, the oxygen level would instantly drop to zero? I would think the Oxygen supply would run out, leaving the dog to slowly suffocate as the O2 supply of the capsule space was consumed.

The same argument can be made for government intervention.

I don’t buy it, there are a ton of examples where not only does the gov get it wrong but also have the opposite effect of what they were trying to achieve. Good intentions is not realistic.

The systemic issue is education.
Go has been my default language for a couple years now. I don't use it for everything, but I use it for most things.

It makes some of the best tradeoffs I've ever seen, which is maybe the highest praise I can give as an engineer.
>I also don’t understand why there are competing cryptocurrencies?

A lot of these "competing cryptocurrencies" are just financial instruments, kind of like you could have stock in a company, but you can also trade options and futures of the same underlying stock.
Here are the steps you need to take to move money with crypto"currency":

1. Establish a presence at an exchange (you need to do this only once)

2. The receiver needs to establish presence at their exchange (every receiver of yours need to do this)

3. Transfer money to the exchange

4. Buy coins and move them and the receiver exchanges back them to money

5. The receiver needs to move money from the exchange to their back account

Reminder: you want to transfer money and crypto"currency" is merely a vehicle to do this. And so turns out the hard part is #3 and #5 -- integrating into existing banking systems and #4 is completely superflous. For example, wise.com (nee transferwise) solves the same problem except without the receiver needing to do this nightmarish rigmarole.

Not trusting the middle man would require the entire world to switch to some crypto"currency" and this is completely unfeasible with the current ones.
Order of precedence to correctly read code can be tricky. I learned a bit about Haskell today!

Yeah, with the standard open, if we also assume Tesla opens the supercharger network it’s kind of hard to see a great argument for CCS. Better plug, more users, more chargers.

I’m biased, but I’ve also used all three plugs (CCS, J1772, NACS). NACS is the USB-C to the other two’s DVI.

> to be honest as you can imagine I am very glad that my representative in the EU didn't back down and protect my rights.

I'm the asker of the question that started this discussion. I'm a US citizen.

I'm actually on the side of the EU here. There needs to be privacy protections for consumers. Even though the requirement for a rep in the EU is impossible for me to fulfill, I admire the fact that they prioritized native EU companies over foreign ones because that is what's best for the EU inside the EU.

I'm mad at the US government for the CLOUD Act, which is egregarious and doesn't serve the interests of the US; it only serves the interests of the US government.
> I can clearly see the revolutionary potential of blockchain.

What do you feel is the "revolutionary potential" here? Bitcoin has been around for a while, and I surely haven't seen it.

I see this stuff only used for scams, speculation, and illicit transactions. None of this is "revolutionary" - scams, speculation, and illicit transactions have been around as long as money.
> A pragmatic “handle it here or bubble it up” is a much better approach

This is exactly the approach used in Go code, so I'm not sure what you're referring to. If you're talking about the fact that you can technically ignore an error result like

res, _ := doWork()

then that's a fair point. But we still have https://staticcheck.io/docs/checks#SA4006 for that.
Another thing happening is that a lot of U.S. companies are "friendshoring" to Canada, India, Australia, and Europe, where salaries, in real terms, are somewhere between 25%-50% cheaper for what is effectively the same productivity.

Anecdotally, it appears to be boomtime right now in at least some Canadian tech hubs.

My best guess is that this is being driven by three factors: The collapse of the SV ZIRP bubble, the animus with China, and the exceedingly strong US dollar.
Nissan for a long time has stuck to the Japanese standard (CHAdeMO) for their NA cars; some early EVs in America used CHAdeMO as well I think, but afaik only Nissan has stuck with it here.

I think even they've dropped it for future stuff tho.
I too don't see how an anticompetitive rules can be used to thwart MLMs (like Amway).

But IANAL, so I'd need an ELI5.

Either way, I support overreaching rulesets against gig economy biz models with onerous penalties. eg Repeated radical cashectomies.

Scams like Uber, where Labor has to supply their own Capital to participate, receive no benefits, have no collective bargaining, get shunted into arbitration, and are excluded from profit sharing.

That's just wrong.
It's not a hypothesis. You don't need to believe it exists and it may be less common in your market. I know this is true firsthand as in the course of my work, I review the financial and legal side of these entities at times.
>Lets be clear here: CBD is not a CB1 or CB2 agonist (or antagonist, or anything else).

I mean.. citation needed. That's the generally recognized MoA.
Awesome. This should be a world-wide standard. NACS (Tesla) VS CCS is like USB-A 1.0 vs USB-C with Power Delivery: CCS is unbelievably slow and clunky to the point where it might turn people off wanting an EV once they experience the slow and clunkiness.
Nope, if you check out the original threads it's full of distro maintainers complaining they were surprised. To clarify, these are maintainers of software that depends on cryptography, not maintainers of cryptography. Those maintainers weren't reviewing dependencies on an ongoing basis.
No, instead a business owner should understand that if they want to process CCs, there are fees and they should pay them. Making your employees pay CC processing fees (which is what they are doing) is immoral. Simple as that. Stop being an entitled ass. If you want to run a business, you are required to do business things. It's not free lunch.

My dad is an independent contractor. If he needs a new tool to finish a job for someone, he doesn't make them pay for the tool, because that's just what it means to run a business.

Do you trust the bank, credit bureaus or some other establishment that you deal with to not leak your sensitive info? Maybe you do. But in case you don't, which is a rational response to the past performance of some establishments (e.g. Equifax), your life still has to go on.

Did you trust the POTUS when he said that Iraq had WMD before starting a war? I suppose he's a painter now so everything's peachy.

A lot of people have been giving reminders of the general untrustworthiness of establishments, including Snowden & Assange. Establishments that many people are forced to deal with.

It would be nice if everybody could be safely trusted. For those who readily trust, there is no problem to solve.

However, some other people see untrustworthiness everywhere, so they take opportunities to try to opt out of the system by engaging in a trustless system that does not require privileged middlemen. It's been baby steps so far.
The key to that users number is how many new users are being added, how many of those users are active, and how many are bots.

From my read of the social interwebs, the growth rate with the newer generations is not impressive and the number of people drastically reducing their use is not getting smaller

PTP and NTP are about the same without hardware support.

With hardware support, and without any thought or tuning-- you probably get your machines synchronized 2 orders of magnitude closer. (From sub-millisecond to a few microseconds). And, of course, PTP can do much better than this.
At the time I made the change, vscode had a better plugin ecossystem to my needs. Still use it when I need for specific stuff, but it isn't my main text editor anymore.
Space shuttle Challenger: Debris found by divers
Fundamentally, the example I’m bringing up requires a tree structure conceptually, mixing some older history with some newer history. The solution in the article doesn’t address this, and it seems to dismiss the need for this use case, but I’m saying the whole reason I get into a situation where knowing how undo and redo work, and when I might care about whether typing after redo will lose history, is because I’m trying to merge old state with recent edits. I want both changes, not just one or the other.
I wish they had gotten more serious about this sooner. They had talked about offering the plug and network to other manufacturers before but there wasn't any movement on it. I expect that now it's too late and we'll be stuck with terrible CCS forever, but I'd be happy to be wrong.
> not suitable for editing multi-file projects

What does this mean?
You realize the entire argument for balkanizing the internet is that the US uses it as a platform for spying + propaganda and has more resources than most of its geopolitical rivals?

Its a pattern that I see in people of all stripes. One of the most pervasive is the tendency of those with no political background to harshly assess political decisions.
One time, a few years ago a particularly nasty query was executed over and over again and it took a few hours to find it and then block it.

And during that time so many nodes had became slow and unresponsive that another (for us) previously unseen memory leak started to occur.

Nodes kept building up queues of unanswered ping requests on them. And the requests contained our 100Mb large cluster state, so the heaps filled up and evenmore nodes became unresponsive.

And from then on the whole thing turned into a death spiral of doom.

After trying, and failing to get it under control for 48 hours we gave up and rebuilt the whole cluster from scratch, using the snapshots we store on S3.

The recovery took another 90 hours or so. That was not a fun week.
>My current understanding is that taking deposits is a cheap source of funding for the bank. They could borrow required reserves from elsewhere but it’s cheaper to take it from customers who accept low interest rates.

Yeah, why it's confusing to you is that you're segregating "borrowing from capital markets" from "borrowing from depositors" when they are effectively the same thing (both are interest-bearing liabilities).

>For the second part, I agree that if you bring $500k cash to your bank and deposit it, then that asset is real and it basically goes into the bank vault.

I suggest you google 'fractional reserves,' because no, the money does not go into a bank vault (though some of it does!).

> Most of them are just an IOU from the bank and we use these IOUs as the most frequent form of money.

The logical fallacy here is that you're seeing how many IOUs there are (many) and how many cash dollars there are (much fewer!) and then assume that IOUs don't have to be attached to a physical dollar but they do (keep in mind, a physical dollar could just be a line item on The Treasury's balance sheet, it doesn't have to be paper) It's just that many IOUs can be attached to the same dollar through the credit multiplier.

What I find interesting about this "narrative" is... where is the specifics/proof?

It feels like "something" (the media?) wants us to think that it isn't just a few bad apples ruining the pie. It's the entire pie. It's unfixable.

What's also interesting is... say you do flag someone/something down as an example of corruption. Their side of the story is that they aren't doing anything wrong.

What/where is the truth?
I'm not a lawyer but that sure sounds like it would be a case of promissory estoppel to me. That is, if someone relies on Tesla's word and makes investments based on it they'd have a legal case to prevent Tesla from trying to exercise those patents against them. But I do hope there's an actual legal grant of rights as well.
I switched from Emacs to IDEA because IDE features are frankly unrivalled but I still think Emacs does the text editing part plainly better
Tesla’s connector has zero marketshare in Europe and doesn’t support 3-phase AC charging.

I don’t think there is that much benefit in a global standard given that adapters exist.
Rent control can, and sometimes does work. However, it has faltered in recent years, in large part because property management companies are using software to aid in pricing rents as high as the market can bear (to the heavy detriment of tenants), and are willing to evict and retain an unconscionable amount of empty units if overall profits rise, even at the cost of human suffering, rather than keep tenants around.

The latest "Behind the Bastards" podcast "Part One: Why is the Rent So Damn High?" explores some of this, if you have the time and inclination to listen.
And the transit projects across the globe that don't cost so much?
If you re-read my comment and the comment I was replying to, you will see that I wasn't making any claims about America being or not being the greatest country in the world. I was pointing out how "American Exceptiolism" will sometimes cause me to think things which "are great" as being american when they aren't american at all.

* you: Swedes can import expensive treatments from US corporations

* Parent: Alot of those are from non-US (Switzerland, Germany, Philips)

* my comment: When I think of "Philips", I think it's an american company

* my comment: When I was watching 2 top athletes, my default assumption was that they were american, even though it's extremely obvious that they aren't. Which exposes how ridiculous the framing is.

Unless a company actively promotes that it’s a foreign company in their branding, “German engineering”/“Swedish design” or similar with their name/branding, I will assume it’s an American company.

I think one of the reasons "American Exceptionalism" is dangerous, is that it holds us back from improving on things which aren't actually the best. If an American politican says "This is the greatest country in the world", that is an emotional argument to keep things exactly the same.
Neither Sublime nor VsCode have the deep introspection and refactoring capability of an IDE like JetBrains. Or concepts of projects that each have their own files, windows etc.
I think Go shows that that's a false dichotomy. Go can GC very quickly, almost without pauses, and the pauses are sub millisecond. That should be fast enough for almost all backends. Capping isn't great, although doable if you've got a steady workload.
I appreciate the input, but did you look at the Ki binding figures for CBD in the paper you linked? ~4000 nanomolar antagonist is not nanomolar unless you're really stretching it. It is so high that there are innumberable unrelated compounds with the same very low affinity. It is true it does act as an atagonist, but it is a vacuous truth applicable to so many things that you wouldn't call CB1 or CB2 antagonist.
I assume (but I don't know) that GDPR applies fully if any party is in/from the EU. (In practice, if the data processor is outside the EU, enforcement might be difficult, but in your case it sounds like the data processor is inside the EU, so I imagine you have the same rights in this case as those who do reside in the EU.) However, my understanding is that

1) if your data is processed for contractual purposes, the data processor has a right not to delete it on request

2) if your data is processed for law enforcement purposes, the data processor has a duty not to delete it on request

There are several legal grounds for processing personal data under GDPR, and consent is only one of them. I think most of the others outweigh any request for deletion by the data subject.

To them animals are tools, not feeling creatures. And in their defense for virtually all of human history, except for recently animals were always tools.

Judaism actually has a law called "Tza'ar ba'alei chayim" which prohibits unnecessary suffering to animals, and mandates a procedure for painless slaughter. This was unprecedented for its time - back then no one cared at all.
