I've been diving into linguistics, have always had better aptitude with language than mathematics, especially as a bilingual individual, German being my first language. However studying linguistics and the interconnection with math led to a personal breakthrough specifically physics/calculus related. However I am self teaching and really finding quantum mechanics/theoretical quantum physics fascinating and fairly comprehensible and have been working on some things in that realm, that said I feel like I'm most likely falling into a self bias trap, i.e. self confirmation based on inadequate information and missing fundamentals. I've tried to focus it more into a test project, specifically in the realm of cryptography, I have a fairly high aptitude for patturn recognition. I'm planning on utilizing it in designing both an embedded hardware/software application for security/authentication. It's difficult to articulate via this format, but there are through lines with a number of fields, specifically music synthesis, a hobby of mine for now, as well as circuit design, which I am also teaching myself, building my own eurorack synth modules. I'm still limited in my coding skill so that's kind of my start point right now. Deciding on a language is proving to be difficult especially with the new memory safe parameters, NIST standards etc. I have some experience with C++, planned on working more with python. The logic seems sound but don't have anyone to really sound off to help focus on things I'm inevitably missing. Apologies for the word salad, it's a lot to try and explain. My educational background is in social science research and cs networking. Had a lot of road blocks in the last 2 years which led to some personal hardships (not unique considering) which seem to be resulting in some positive breakthroughs. But I'm scraping 40 and and time certainly flies by, still paying off student loans etc, school really isn't an option unfortunately at this point, academia would be an ideal place/way to meet people. Bottom line is I need to nail down specifics to focus on and produce project results, but not an undertaking I feel I can or should solo. I'm relatively intelligent and might be better suited in a position to promt the smarter folks in the room on some of what I outlined. Hope this was somewhat comprehensible.
Sources? I was buying and transferring bitcoins over 8 years as I bought weed through it.

Of course you can even pay 0 but you know it's not the normal someone would wait days for the transaction going through.

You clearly did not use Bitcoin often enough otherwise you could just looked the spikes up yourself. That first corona year was even worse with the fees.
I believe the EU limit is 50nW (at least it is in the EU country I live).
Some open source projects like OpenCV are IDE friendly... thanks to build automation tools like CMake. Sure you can use good old make, but you can also load the projects files into your favourite IDE to build. Easy.

Other projects are unfortunately not. Say you want to build with Visual Studio. That means you have to manually configure the include/lib paths first, and probably build some libraries before building your main project, etc etc. Annoying.
I also have GERD without many symptoms. Have you done an upper endoscopy, a barium swallow, and been tested for _H. Pylori_?

I did all of it, which showed mild damage to my esophagus, as well as some signs of stomach inflammation, which I thought was interesting. The radiologist said "everything is just coming right back up" and told me I had severe GERD. Negative for _H. Pylori_.

PPIs (lansaprazole, omeprazole) appeared to do nothing, so I stopped, given that the long-term health risks are negative.

Interesting that you think gut bacteria are related. In medical terms the gut refers to the intestines, not the stomach. I assume you mean stomach bacteria here. There's apparently not a lot that can survive the environment of the stomach, but strep bacteria can.

I recently read that getting more fiber in one's diet can help GERD.
I'm at 5+ and I'm working on making my CV more professional, tbh I almost always get an interview opportunity if/when I pursue a relevant job position.
Most servers even have an API endpoint for this.
The e32 prefix used in the source is for EPOC32, Symbian’s original name, so you can count that as a reference. But books about Symbian say it was a complete rewrite of the original 16-bit, C-language EPOC, there probably isn’t any code that comes from there verbatim.

(The Psion was the brand of computers, the EPOC was the OS.)

> The abuses of the companies you never hear about are orders of magnitude worse.
> They are plugged into every institution of society you interact with in your daily life, so you essentially can't opt out, and their primary business model is siphoning off sensitive de-anonymized personal data and selling it to anybody willing to pay.

This would be much more impactful if you named one of these companies and gave some concrete examples of what they are doing.
Or just a sublinear reduction in welfare compared to income.
>Think about how rents have changed over the past few years versus home sale prices

In my area, rents have gone up concurrent with house prices - but aren't falling now that sales inventory is falling, because those owners still want to cover the mortgage.

> property taxes should not be based on the "full cash value" of a property

That's not quite how property taxes are calculated, at least not in the two states where I sell real estate. In fact, even after a house has recently sold and there is a new market value established, the property tax basis doesn't increase up to that new market price. I just went through this with an out-of-area buyer, where I took the houses I sold last year that were comps to the one they wanted to buy and showed them the new tax assessment for this year. Yes each had increased, but nowhere near the market value (in fact, the tax assessed value was between 50-60% of the market prices).
Please post the links, I feel like I live i a weird opposites world, where in the sane world we would have dealt with Covid by now, and have sorted out clean air in our public spaces (and to some extent homes too).
If you are blocking an essential services channel (eg Aircraft, Police, Ambulance, military), the authorities can get a triangulation (within meters) on you in just a few minutes.
As that section says, there is (at least for public consumption) disagreement among then-Sun employees as to what the intent and beliefs were at the time.

I know all those folks to greater or lesser degrees and Sun was a client of mine as an analyst. There were certainly a lot of conflicting motivations and concerns concerning Solaris and Linux.
No. Seems like a non sequitur to me.
> Go makes you believe you dealt with the error, but instead you just forget about it.

Can you explain that? Touching every context of an error propagation seems opposite of forgetting about it.
Ah, gotcha. Rust's tooling for WASM + embedded is pretty good.

I actually want to get Nim + WASM running on embedded so we could do our own MicroPython like setup and not require people to know how to flash the hardware directly.

I know Andreas doesn't care for WASM, but Nim could support native WASM relatively easily. It already does a "re-looper" for the JS backend AFAICT. which is the biggest challenge of WASM.
> Do I have proof? No.

No, you're wrong. The whole money supply is controlled by the Federal Reserve through purchasing and selling securities. When the FED purchases a security, the money gets deposited in the reserves of commercial banks, which then increases the money in circulation through making loans to consumers and businesses. And the mentioned securities are, uhhh, treasuries!

To break it down:
If I have 1 dollar in my account, the bank owes me 1 dollar. And this goes all the way up.
You can in the USA. Mine does.
I have never really understood people‘s aversion to parentheses. Many languages require them in ad-hoc ways to groups expressions. For S-expressions, you give up some mild convenience and looks for extremely consistent semantics.

This is a really famous case and is fairly Kafkaesque.

It comes down to this:

> In 1992, a French court ruled that having entered the country legally, he could not be expelled from the airport, but it could not grant him permission to enter France.

He was legally stuck at the airport with no options from 1988 to 1995 when Belgium said they would take him. After that he stayed due to stubbornness in refusing to sign bureaucratic papers that did not represent his mental truth, which was affected by the years trapped and made him a bit off in the head like it would anyone. So he remained stuck.

He never could afford to stay at the airport. He was trapped there by bureaucrats. Humanists recognizing his dilemma gave him food.
I feel like making money when you can borrow money at near zero interest rates is a pretty easy thing that more or less anyone can do.
That is my thing, how can this happen. I had to google to see if this was true:

They don't seem that bad to me--and I'm colorblind, so somewhat sensitive to contrast issues. The default type sizes should be bigger.
It feels like you're suggesting the reality of voter ID in the US isn't how I'm describing it.

In the US, there is no national ID card. The de facto ID is the driver's license, and those are issued by the individual states -- and for people who don't drive (which, in most places in the US, means "poor people") there's no reason to have one.

States DO issue a non-DL ID, but getting one involves a bunch of the same hassles that getting the driver's license involves -- paying a fee, taking time to go to the correct government office, taking time off work to do so (again, a large imposition for lower income non-drivers), etc.

The GOP is also infamous for reducing polling places in areas that tend to vote Democratic, and really only gets in trouble when they're super obvious about it. Now, with VoterID, many GOP-run states have also starting closing the driver's license issuing offices in poorer and blacker areas of the state (for example, Alabama). There, you get a snowballing effect: reduce polling places easily accessed by poorer people; require an ID to vote that many of them don't have; and then make it harder to GET the ID in order to vote.

This is the new American reality.
Seems the opposite to me, but I'm no pilot. The smaller plane was making a banking left turn. Even if the B17 we're visible on the lower right side of the cocokput, the pilot was probably looking to the left where they were headed.
I think that is just a facet of his point. It was Sun's corporate backing and muscle that enabled you to get their SDK for free. And this is ignoring the reach out into education markets to get Java as the 101 level course for an absurd number of students.
I'm confused. If generally the spending is just an authorization and not mandatory, then what would be the point of a line item veto on that spending? Couldn't the executive avoid that expenditure regardless?

(I'm not asking about the student debt issue - I'm asking about https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_Item_Veto_Act_of_1996)
Very much like a soldier refusing to execute immoral orders, we need the smartest engineers working at these companies to stop implementing such features. As it stands, engineers working in big tech are often celebrated on platforms like HN. Especially the companies that are just creating spying machines, and addictive time-wasters.

We outlaw addictive chemical substances, and maybe such tech should also be looked at in similar light.

At our company, the use of cell phones is not permitted inside certain manufacturing zones. It's a bit sad to see some of the younger employees being very restless when they can't check their phone every 30 seconds.

I believe that the time has finally come to fulfill TBL's "Phase 2" so I created a prototype a few weeks ago. It's just an HTML editor made to create HTML Documents.

I'll chime in for raw honey even though it's not a plant. About 12-15 years ago I started getting pain in my right shoulder. This went on for about 6 months. My wife and friends and my doctor told me it was "bursitis" and I'd need an operation to get rid of it. Back then going to the doctor was the leading cause of avoidable death so I wasn't keen on getting that operation (it's now the 3rd leading cause of avoidable death).

I was whining about it one day to a friend of mine who was in his 70s and had been a pilot for the military and flew missions all over the world. He learned on lot doing that. He told me "Raw honey will cure that if you take a tablespoon every day for a few weeks" and explained it was actually an infection that the honey would kill.

He was right. I bought some honey from a local bee keeper and it was exactly two weeks later that the pain was entirely gone. Right about that time a neighbor of mine stopped by and mentioned he was going to the hospital for an operation for the same thing in two weeks. I told him about the honey and he got some from the same bee keeper and it cured him too.

Most doctors won't tell you raw honey will cure that. Most probably don't even know it will.
Appeal to authority is a hell of a drug.

Then read the article. The problem is that in reality the money flows from low income to high income households. So it works the opposite of how you think it does.
Exactly, it's always sunny in space.

Also, a big part of the inefficiency in conventional power collection (in the case of solar) is transmission losses in the power lines. This converts light directly into microwave energy that can then be transmitted without power lines. That's a game hanger, just like wifi is to ethernet
That doesn’t seem to match up with reality. A lot of legislations don’t care a lot about collateral damage. They just block. And other customers on the shared IP have to deal with it (move to another IP).
I actually tried the lxml syntax "/{urn:beta}b" and that's how I learned about the panic-based error handling, but I didn't know about that Q syntax, so thank you for bringing it to my attention

You keep saying that but haven't described any of the comments in anything but the vaguest terms - so vague that the descriptions alone sound like an implausible basis for a ban.
Or not? It's in a banked left turn, and since it was a collision course, the B17 would have been "under" him out of view. I would not complete the maneuver if I couldn't see it though, so who knows.
Because they are all dumb and dumbers. Having spoken to a lot of high profile vc firms you would be amazed how low IQ most of them are. They have this outward show which they cultivate while they spend old people's pension funds.
Not good for anyone, obv, but where is the money?? If dude sent it to his other company, shouldn't it be sitting there? Did they already spend it?

Although crypto is marred with scams and is by nature often shady, this isn't about crypto but about 1 single person, the ex-CEO, stealing people's money.

Author here. I did not go into this, but it really is a problem that I, and most of my fellow hobby beekeepers undercharge. That we don't count our hours into the price means that the few Beekeepers who do it professionally, have a hard time charging proper prices.

So I'm happy to hear Swiss prices are better. Though, having lived and worked there a summer, I guess it's still relatively cheap. The price of a coffee....

Looks at SGML renderers of the day

I used to work on a Mac C/68k SGML editor. It was used for data capture of European Patents. ResEdit UI - god help us.

Combine those files with an example “Steven’s” TCP server and a client that renders, you have Web 1.0.

Technically, it was nothing novel - but it was given away for free.

There were many hypertext systems at that time that were proprietary.

The conclusion I took from the article was that CSS simply isn’t scalable. I’ve been hearing about web components for years and nothing seems to have materialized. I’ve never built something where I thought to even use shadow DOM. Tailwind is the only solution that meets the stated aims. If tailwind doesn’t adhere to the dogma for how CSS should work in principle, well that’s a lovely problem to have.

Travelling by horse and cart can't be much faster than 30 miles per day. So even if you're only 30 miles away, you have a day to get there, a day at the market, and a day to get back.

No, BigTech are the biggest data-miners in the industry as they have daily regular and "unrestricted" access to our lives through the devices we use everyday. Thanks to our mobile phones, computers and the internet, they even have insights and personal data from all the other services we use. BigTech also purchases and partners with data brokers. And all of them do sell their data to the government (as the new government data center in Utah highlight, the PRISM program is thriving). BigTech is the most successful privatisation of intelligence gathering in the history of our world, and I'd say even a monument to capitalism.

While a triumph for capitalism, this is unfortunately also really bad for us ordinary citizens in a democracy as it upsets the balance of power between the rich and our elected representatives. The last time this happened, and a government fought to correct this balance with them (the British vs the East india Company), the British empire itself crumbled. If left unchecked, I fear history will repeat itself again with our current and sole superpower too.

"An insufficiency of control" was exactly the problem that Vittoz' therapy was designed to
correct. Under Vittoz therapeutic system, Eliot would have been reassured that his brain was healthy, but that his "brain control" needed training. He would have learned, in other words, that his problem was functional rather than structural and could be fixed. He was neither insane nor hysterical - he merely had neurasthenia [an ill-defined medical condition characterized by lassitude, fatigue, headache, and irritability, associated chiefly with emotional disturbance. - Oxford], an illness that Vittoz promised to cure.
