I noticed that I often hold conversations in my head while biking. It's quite strange: I start cycling a route I know by heart (work commute, for example), and after a few minutes, the conversations start. Last week I avoided a discussion with another person because I knew my argumentation had a serious flaw, and I couldn't find a way to argue around it. After biking to the supermarket on Saturday and holding that exact conversation in my head, I suddenly had it.

The downside is that you just performed a hidden heap allocation. If automatic memory management is desired, a garbage-collected language might have been the better choice in the first place.
Reasonable, but that means you're not only leaving money on the table (in the form of credit card rewards or cash back), but also you're not taking advantage of a great benefit: credit cards give you a firewall between merchants and your actual money.

If a merchant fraudulently -- or even accidentally -- debits your bank account, then that money is gone. In many cases you will be able to get it back, but how long will that take? Days? Weeks? More? If the bad transaction is large enough, maybe you won't make your rent/mortgage payment that month. But with a credit card, the money is still in your bank account, and you can dispute the charge, and have it removed before you've spent your own money on it.

Yes, credit cards do require some discipline. I pay mine off every month, and incur no interest charges, but sure, there's the possibility that I could charge enough in a month such that I wouldn't have the cash in my checking account to cover it at the end of the month. I generally don't consider this an issue, though, as I don't have a compulsive spending problem, and I track my purchases well enough in any case.

In this day and age of incredibly poor customer service, I think it's invaluable to have some intermediary fronting the money for my purchases, in a way that lets me dispute transactions I think are in error before having to spend my own money on them.

My theory is that you can't really _plan_ how to create and spread an OS: You need to put a dedicated enough person with enough time to write an interesting prototype that would brings you a subsequent advantage. And of course, you need the peoples that will judge wisely about the long run future of this prototype (remember Linux being considered bad?). After this, the prototype have to be mature enough for developers to and hardware makers to support it.

That's a lot of _if_, and I suspect most OS (and in some way, softwares and language) are spontaneous creations that answer a need and become _good_ as a consequence of being used.

What's so bad about American dealerships? Here in Europe I've never heard anyone complain about them. They just provide a service - they have cars available to test drive and have a real person to talk to during the purchase. Sure, the owners make profit, but they DO provide value for the customer and they're at mercy of the car company, which means, in bad economic times, they can get squeezed pretty hard. How is it different in the US?

And by being a member of national and international banks; if a bank in NL fails, there's the Dutch National Bank that will step in and guarantee people's money (up until a certain amount); above that is the European Central Bank that holds a lot of money to ensure stability, reliability and trust in the fiat banking system.

Don't get me wrong, the traditional financial system is fucky (professional term) and they do a lot of weird shit with people's money ($1 invested 10x over) but there's checks & balances at least.

You are right, I misread. My apologies.

Still the whole blog and her various public interviews are wild.

That you only need to be able to take some risk (laughs awkwardly).
In contrast, the Hungarian "cs", "dz", "dzs", "gy", "ny", "sz", "ty", and "zs" all remain distinct, as do their accented vowels. Polish is hybrid, considering digraphs as being 'composed' of single letters (i.e. 'sz' = 's+z'), rather than being distinct, but the accented characters are considered distinct from their unaccented cousins.

This problem has primarily come about because the Catholic church enforced the latin alphabet on languages where a different alphabet might have been more appropriate. Spanish, although more closely related to Latin, still has a few sounds which there's not a good latin character for. There's no (particular) reason (as far as I'm aware) that 'ch' and 'll' became diagraphs, while ñ acquired an accent.

Why should traditions change just because it's a bit more difficult to do things the 'old way'? why do we still bother with capital letters at the beginning of sentences? or speling things with two leters when one wil do, or riting silent leters wen you cant tell the difrens? & i dont think we need apostrofees n e more.

There are two problems and they are intertwined.

We need to have regulation that allows startups to open mini exchanges and banks with easy compliance and unconditional licensing but with heavy restrictions on per customer funds and total funds they are allowed to manage.

The problem is that if you want to open an exchange in say Germany that is practically impossible. You can't get equity or loans for a bank if you don't have a bank license. You need a million or more starting capital to start your own bank. It is a chicken and egg problem.

That leaves a huge hole that unregulated exchanges want to fill and they have a massive competitive edge because they aren't held back by these regulations that are meant for megacorporations.

This doesn't surprise me, and I dont think it proves that useEffect is bad design.

That being said, I think useEffect is a bit too beginner hostile. It kind of remindes me of ´reduce´. When used correctly it is really neat. But it can also be fragile and hard to understand. And just like ´reduce´ a simpler and less efficient solution should often be used. When I started using hooks I made wrappers such as "onMount", and it helped me a lot. Beginners should be encouraged to do so, even if it takes away some of useEffects cool features. In time, they will understand the more intricate details.
The Capture Habit
Well it really depends on what you need by on-prem-servers

Are you trying to provision services and apps? Kubernetes.
Are you trying to provision Virtual machines? have a look at rancher harvester.
Are you trying to replicate server setup to make it unified? Ansible
Are you trying to explicitly control servers with instructions? Terraform

SSH works in containers too, all you have to do is either open the ports or forward.

Once they finish their ipv6 features, Rancher Harvester is going to be one interesting beast for on-premise. You may setup your virtual machines with the regular kubernetes api (libvirt), provision storage throughout the network and could even dife into software defined everything.

If none of these words mean anything to you though, the most common way for smaller orgs is either ansible or terreaform. Dont complicate things just to make them shiny ;)

Did I miss the part where Eric criticized Elon or Twitter? In the exchange I saw he simply said that the public statement was incorrect, provided some technical opinions, and stated that the original post should have been discussed privately first.

None of those verge into criticism for me, even if we can certainly agree that the whole thing wasn't the wisest possible exchange from a job-preservation perspective. I suspect preserving his job wasn't Eric's highest priority though.
Topping up, reseating? My experience with tubeless (on a mountain bike) is that I buy a new set of tires, pour some sealant in (Stan's NoTubes), put them on a bike and then ride until there's no tread left. I don't think I've ever had the sealant dry up. And that's with a regular rim meant to be used with tubes, converted to tubeless with an aftermarket kit.

I agree with having to carry a tube or two in case the tire fails catastrophically, but other than that I consider tubeless bulletproof. No experience with touring though.

No, because with infinities, even if a set is a subset of another, you may still be able to find one element in the first set that corresponds to every element of the other set.

For example, the natural numbers are a subset of the whole numbers, but there is a natural number that corresponds to every whole number. To see this, we can order the whole numbers like this: {0, -1, 1, -2, 2, -3, 3, ...}, and we can easily see that we can now assign one natural number to each of them (0 -> 0, -1 -> 1, 1 -> 2, -2 -> 3, ...). Since you'll never run out of naturals, you won't ever find a whole number that doesn't have a corresponding natural number.

Since assigning a natural number this way is equivalent to counting the elements of the other set (in this scheme, I could say that -2 is the 3rd whole number), this type of infinity is called "countable infinity". The natural numbers, the whole numbers, and the rational numbers are all countably infinite. In contrast, the irrational numbers and the real numbers are not. In fact, even the real interval [0, 1] is not countable, so this interval is considered to have more elements than N (the set of natural numbers).

Note that while there is only one countable infinity, there are many uncountable infinities - so not all uncountably infinite sets are considered as large. If you're curious about this area, the study of these concepts is done via "transfinite numbers" - particularly, the transfinite cardinal numbers (there are also transfinite ordinals).

How so? I'm not the person you're replying to, but I have used PayPal in exactly the same way over the past 20 years: only linking credit cards, and using it to pay for things on websites rather than having to give my credit card information to yet another random site. And I've never had to provide any kind of documentation in order to keep my account open and functional.

So clearly these "financial regulations" you speak of don't actually exist, or at least PayPal has just -- lucky for me -- conveniently forgot to comply with them for my account.

Also consider that there are two things at issue here: account ownership, and account operation.

PayPal seems to not believe that the grandparent is even the owner of the account. If they did, then they'd allow him to close the account. That seems distinct from allowing someone to operate the account, that is, perform financial transactions. Which, sure, depending on the kind of transactions or kind of account, that might require further verification. (But assuming the GP is telling the full story of how he uses the account, PayPal certainly does not legally need further documentation.)

So it's a little weird PayPal has taken the stance they've taken. If all they cared about was complying with "financial regulations", then they should have no problem with the account owner asking them to close the account. But clearly they are doing something shady, because presumably knowing the account password, or at least demonstrating having control of the email address and/or phone number (or other contact method) associated with the account, should be enough to satisfy PayPal in order to close the account. The fact that it isn't is a red flag that should make us question PayPal's motives here.

At any rate, the fact remains that using a PayPal account solely to pay for stuff online should not invoke any "financial regulations" requiring the account owner to upload ID photos or other documentation. If that were the case, every intermediary in payment processing -- like Stripe, Venmo, Square Cash, or even Google Pay (all entities I use but have never given identity documentation to) -- would be required to collect this information.
