When I immigrated to Canada, online ordering was not as ubiquitous as it is now. I needed to ask someone in the elevator where to buy a laundry basket. I had no idea. Come to think of, how on earth would you know? They do not give you a "handbook to Canadian living" when you land on an IM-1 visa.

Bookkeeper. Lawyer. Handyman. Figure all that out, again, as if those weren't hard enough in the first case.

These things are much harder than anyone would reasonably expect. I expected the change of friends, places etc but never occurred to me how hard it'll be to re-learn shopping.
This is kind of an unfortunate name. Broadcom has a utility for getting diagnostic data from their latest gen SAS expanders called scrutiny. I expect once that becomes more popular you're going to see some confusion around which "scrutiny" project involving hard drives you're talking about.
In its terms of service, FTX was supposed to hold the customer assets at 1:1 ratio.

> So why does their management - which should be able to read the writing on the wall, since that's part of their job

You know how many engineers can’t code right? I don’t think a check of whether someone can read the future is part of a management interview.
That's just one of the services.

Also, counter argument:

why should the collective pay the bill through taxes for privates to check they comply with the law? You realize in other countries you would still need to rely on the subpar services of a lawyer for any non-trivial issue?

What is that, socialism? /s

As I said, I am not saying that I'm a fan of notary services, but in countries like Italy and Germany where laws are different they do have a role.

People bash on this system and think it's more expensive but let's do some math.

E.g. In Italy we need notaries to buy a home but this includes a lot of services and it includes taxes, registrations, appraisals, etc. I am buying a house right now and I'm paying a whole 3300 euros to the notary (including taxes) for his services and I have literally to do not paperwork, go to any office or anything.

Now, in Texas, when buying a house you'd spending 6.75% in taxes, which would be much more than what you would pay in Italy (almost by a 10x factor) and all the costs of the paperwork is on the buyer and you get no assistance of any sort.

Are we sure other systems are much better?

What if you file wrong paperwork, do you get any legal protection? No. Well you would in Italy or Germany as the notary has legal responsibility for any documentation error or any missing verification.

It is really not as bad as people make it to be.

Again, I'm not vouching that's the best system there is, but I find it better for the consumer, cheaper and safer (also, way easier to have someone else handle all of the beaurocracy).

>I suspect that over the next few decades we will see the countries with the lowest birth rates start to push massive incentives for having more children.

After the lifestyle has changed, the economy has different impact, and its population is already older, it might not be recoverable anymore.

There will be fewer people available in child-having age, despite the incentives, and those that are wont suddenly start having 3-4 children to compensate.
Well, some kind of anger, anyway. Otherwise your description applies to trumpists (and their local variants) just as well.

This is a solid argument and I'd have made it once. But given how the situation is shaping up it is difficult to avoid the comparison to gold which is also a net-negative system, has been waddling on for several thousand years now and has proven irrepressible as an asset (despite many credible efforts to stamp it out).

The argument about whether crypto as a system can create value has been settled in the affirmative. We've never seen these sort of reliable transaction guarantees before in a monetary system and some people are willing to pay for that. Value is being created. The only question still open is what cost is appropriate. So far the market has been consistently saying "more" but maybe that is an aberration.
I don't believe I was complaining about lack of SEH support pre-2014 anywhere. I just said I've run into issues around it with Clang today. Also note that SEH was never the sticking point for ABI compatibility. Even the mangling of "void foo()" wasn't something *nix compilers attempted compatibility with.

Anecdote time: We have an internal site for more math exercises in my university. The teachers still have a mix of email providers, like 1/3 gmail, 1/3 hotmail and 1/3 yahoo. Until a few years ago (5?), the students had like 1/2 gmail and 1/2 hotmail, probably due to the MSN Messenger. Now students have 99% gmail, gmail, gmail, because everyone has a cell phone that ask nicely to have a gmail account.

Sort of? Dealing and living with that dilemma is part of the job though.
While this is true, it is utterly infeasible for a company with tens of thousands of employees to consider the individual employee in their decisions.

They can perhaps consider actions which will result in large impacts to large numbers of employees (such as regulating the inflow a bit more to protect against sudden needs to dump 11,000 people). Hire fewer, more slowly, and they can then slowly and with more consideration lay off fewer people.

++ for fielmann, I’ve used them in Poland a couple of times (so possibly they are in more countries as well). Good quality and a decent price. Note they have a lot of options, also including more “designer” frames, which are getting expensive. Their brand frames are good quality though if you can find some that you like.

Ok, let's ignore the selling stuff.

Your partner also quits their good job. That good job might not be available if you come back, congratulations, you're back at years of job hunting and job hopping to be where you were years before. In the new country maybe this was not a concern and the other partner who was just laid off had a great salary to cover.

Your kids leave their good school. Now that school no longer accepts applicants and you're stuck with whatever you can find on a short notice.

This list is far from comprehensive.
I am not sure where it is coming from exactly. I’ve been around for other major downturns, this is the first I recall at least where there’s almost like a “What Would Ebenezer Scrooge Do” mentality that has taken over amongst technology leaders. A lot of people I thought I respected are tweeting things like you have to put family second if you want to succeed, or people who don’t work every weekend should be fired (or even apologising to someone if you ask them to work on the weekend is a capitulation), that sort of thing. Unnecessary cruelty around layoffs, to send a message, seems like another.

I agree that work isn’t family and that it’s a business first, but recently it seems like causing or experiencing suffering is being seen as a kind of proof of commitment. I don’t think that path ends well.
If enough engineers started demanding it, it wouldn't be fantasy land...

I have negotiated changes to my employment contract at every job I've ever worked, big and small companies, so it is very possible. Usually just crossing out a clause or editing a number is pretty straightforward and doesn't require approvals too high up the management chain.
Ace & Tate [1] are becoming fairly popular across Europe. They go for 110EUR for frame + base lenses. They're also very internet-oriented. You can book an eye-test appointment online. Even get sample frames sent at home to choose from (at least pre-Corona).

Anecdotally, they also seem to have pretty good quality. An optician in a country where they don't operate appraised my 160EUR Ace & Tate prescription sunglasses pair in the 400-500EUR range.

Caveat: they stock both Luxottica and non-Luxottica brands. You'll just have to guess which is which based on price and know your prescription already.

I will define cheap as anything under €30. I managed to get three pairs of different frames with three pairs of custom lenses for €55.
Video games are overwhelmingly coded in c++. C# is now more and more popular because of unity, but most AAA games (and their engines) are still made in c++.

There seems to be loads of cheap glasses websites in the UK that I imagine would post to Europe. I use spex4less.co.uk However in the past I used a similar website and got 3 pairs for about €40, but they didn't have the correct prescription in them, they were generic prescriptions but each of my eyes needs a different strength. Also these websites offer cheap frames, but the dimensions of them are often not very good, ie, their Wayfarers which I wear are nowhere near as good as the RayBan frames I wear, so I ended up buying RayBan frames, albeit at a large discount of around 50% online compared to the high street. If you already have your prescription finding cheap glasses online should be a no-brainer though.

It does, but this is an invitation to discuss whether and what content is worth archiving in the event Twitter will no longer be as it is now.

A list of stories posted as Twitter threads that captured the curiosity of HN is a good start.
It’s not too crazy to believe. I’ve seen multiple studies say the sex drives of males are higher and more consistent than that of females on average. If men were always initiating in a world where female voices were being repressed, it probably didn’t leave room for men to know or care whether their partners actually enjoyed intercourse as well. The narrative might’ve also been more convenient to believe since it would mean one less motivator for infidelity.
Seems like it's mostly memes about how it's always happening, but few/no actual examples of such erasure... plus a few "weird things from insert social network".

That's kind of the terminal state of most subreddits, so maybe it was better once.
Interesting that '555-5555' is historically listed as 'IN DISPUTE'. It was well-known in the 1980s and 1990s that if you hit 0 to have an operator dial a call for you (for example to an ANI demo or other target known to use ANI), an ANI Failure would result and the output would be: area code + 555-5555.

I just went to Mister Spex [0], they are more expensive than Zenni, but far cheaper than where I got my glasses before. My lenses at Zenni end up $221, at Mister Spex I paid 285€ (For comparison Optiker Bode: 524€). I paid 115€ for the frames, but that was because I actually liked those, they have cheaper frames going down to 20-30€ as well.

Maybe losing that crypto taught you a lesson and made you a better person and presented you from losing far more in the intervening years. If you got your crypto back you might have been misled into believing that when you give your keys to a strangers, it's still your crypto.

>Thus, when a bank has more liabilities than assets to a point below the required reserve percentage, 10%, it can borrow reserves from another bank and pay the interest rate set by the Fed for the benefit of doing so.

Where did the author get this 10% number?

If you look at China it's 11%.

India is 4%

Hungary is 1%

Turkey is 25%

But USA is at 0%. https://www.federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy/reservereq.htm

The US banks are currently lending out infinite money. There will be limits and cycles in terms of being able to lend out but you can lend out infinite and sell the liability.

A couple of years ago I was about to go with aceandtate, ended up going with specsavers because they had a thing where you'd get sunglasses with prescription lenses too for free when you bought the normal ones. If you nab some promotion like this it's really good value. Ended up being under €150 total for both pairs (1 normal, 1 sunglasses), and this is with max durable lenses and I'm blind enough that my lenses are also not the cheapest cause they're too fat for that. Was the cheapest acceptable ones I found and they have some that look as trendy as the A&T ones.
Victorian society was borderline schizofrenic. There was a "public" view of what is right, and private behaviour.

For example, indeed sex itself was frowned upon from many angles, but prostitution was rampant in London. Same for drugs. And indeed it was often the same people holding the same views at the same time.

I think there are similar themes in other historical settings. I remember reading that many of key drivers of US prohibitions were themselves major alcohol abusers.

I think the hypocrisy itself isn't that unusual, but the scale of it (how widely the "public" beliefs were held and how large the gap between private and public was) was quite extreme, compared to similar cases.

Not a historian, no sources.
I use Retool extensively at work for internal tooling (A.K.A Backoffice). It's really good in that I don't have to think about it much. There seems to be a new open-source competitor popping up every month, which is great, but I really wish people would get behind one or two of them and make them much stronger contenders.

The comparisons listed (other than being OSS) are mostly superficial and in some cases already available in Retool, perhaps released since that was written.

A better benchmark to aim for would be https://www.palantir.com/platforms/foundry/ which is way more powerful.

Wow, didn't expect to prompt such a long rant :)

I think you're raising a couple important questions here, but I believe building apps that are actually frameworks is a trap.

Have you looked at Awesome (https://awesomewm.org/)? It's a window manager that actually advertises itself as a framework. It has a default example config, that you can just completely ignore, and instead, use the API to build your own WM from scratch, using high-level primitives such as windows and tags, rather than having to deal with X11/XCB directly.

I've used Awesome a lot in the 3.x days, and one of the major pain points was always upgrading. My old config (only slightly adapted from the default) would regularly break between minor releases. It was an experience similar to upgrading Django projects - something I'd charge money for nowadays, not inflict upon myself voluntarily.

I have a similar experience with Emacs, I'd rather have a 10 line config and sane defaults than a 10k line program that I end up working on more often than on my actual projects. If not for magit, I'd have switched to VS Code a long time ago.

I'm afraid most frameworks-disguised-as-apps end up this way. I want the exact opposite - a simple GUI framework, with a native feel, that makes writing simple apps (such as the text editor from TFA) - as simple, as banging out escape codes to stdout, but without emulating half a century of technical debt. And nope, using a web browser for that purpose doesn't fit my definition of simple ;)

BTW feel free to reply on email if you feel constrained by HN post length.
Do immigrants do this often? I mean sell their houses, cars and other belongings before moving abroad? It's a sincere question from someone who also considered emigrating for work at some point. I could never imagine getting rid of all my stuff before I actually sit down in the office with my new bosses and co-workers for a couple of months and have a taste of what it is like. I won't be buying any house or a car in the new place right away anyway. I could just rent both before I decide I want to stay there for good. Or am I talking from some sort of a privileged position of a person who has some savings to deal with situations like this ... or maybe I'm too conservative and that's why I never left?
