YouTube creators make their money with ads, so this takes money out of their pockets, too.
In C void is the unit type. I'm not sure why we should respect C's choice of nomenclature, when the obvious thing to call it is Unit, and an obvious thing to call an uninhabited type is Void. Haskell's choice is fine.
ISO is basically a linear gain that's done on the sensor. As long as you aren't blowing out your photo and loosing information, it basically makes not difference if you do it in sensor or later while editing

This is true for some cameras, but certainly not all. Many cameras, especially pro or pro-sumer grade, have non-linear ISO. That is, there are ranges for which it behaves linearly, but typically there will be some range - say the minimum up to 1600 or something - where it behaves as a linear range, and then the next setting up from that (where the settings are typically 1/3 stop) will reset to a lower snr. (And yes, that does imply that in such cases it often yields better results to go up by one or even two clicks in ISO)

I'm not sure if there any camera-phones that behave this way, though.
Twitter has an issue like this with its video player - clicking on the vertical volume bar to adjust it and moving past the seek bar that it intersects with causes the volume interaction to drop off in favor of the seek interaction.

This is especially infuriating:
"Banks that take advances from their FHLBs, that is most banks, do so in lieu of paying higher interest rates to their own customers. You’ve probably asked, “How can banks get away with paying on average 0.19 percent on savings accounts when the yield on 1-year treasuries is 4.75 percent?” The answer lies largely with the FHLBs."

I wonder how much of this very low cost credit finds its way into housing speculation-- the antithesis of building affordable housing.
The tip of the thread in NPT is the one that needs the lubrication the most, hah.

Pipe Dope causes similar issues though.
What is immoral is people being told to either give up all privacy or stop using the internet.

A true third choice does not exist, so we are left with no choice but to create one. Strip the ads and remove the trackers until alternatives like anonymous micro-transactions are implemented.

This needs to go down like DRM. When enough people voted no to DRM by obtaining music via alternative channels, music sales portals started dropped DRM letting people have unrestricted copies of what they paid for.
California greenlights jaywalking. It’s a step in the right direction
Fair question - I’m familiar with the theory of operation and I’ve implemented toy receivers (on the software side). I will say that even in the basic designs I worked with it made sense (and was easier) to solve the system of equations and not do something special like assign a “time satellite”. It’s a much easier way to describe the system to someone without a linear algebra background, so I bet that’s the author’s intent.

Weight loss always involves some loss of lean tissue in addition to fat. Dieters can mitigate this to an extent by protein intake high and maintaining an exercise program.
Not all women are into activism. In fact, as an older guy (who has been through a number of relationships in my younger days) I'd advise a guy to strongly avoid those who are into activism. For the same types of reasons I'd avoid overly religious women.
This is not to say that there is anything wrong with beliefs on social justice or religious beliefs, but women who get too carried away with these things tend to have other issues in my experience that they are externalizing. They will make your life hell, particularly as they age. And you will be continually measured and judged by whatever thing they glommed onto.

Look for a women that wants to be a mother if that is what you are into.

Otherwise, just a good person with good sense and an even temper who can somewhat keep their life together and who gives you love and who you can love back. Someone who is happy and cares about others is best.

But I do tend to agree on "computer people". They aren't usually who I chose to hang with in off hours for the reasons you mention.
> It's selfish to use the services of YouTube while removing their main source of revenue.

The entire edifice of Capitalism, which we celebrate, is built on
selfishness. And yet you use the word here as if it were a bad
thing. I am confused :)

> If you have a problem with YouTube's tracking, simply don't use it

Why "simply" avoid a problem when with some effort you can improve it?
In this case optimising the service to make it free from ads and
tracking appears to be an improvement.
You and I have very different definitions of "maximally optimized." I think of eliminating all possible wasted CPU cycles when I hear those words. In comparison, being able to remove spurious copies and atomic accesses is table stakes for claiming that you know a systems programming language. Most use cases of C and C++ today are in that state.
My "hunger pain" is tied to the some combination of the gut biome and the blood sugar cycle. It initially insists that I should eat frequently. If I persist through it, then an hour or two later, it settles down.

Likewise, I've noticed an effect develop with artificial sweeteners where I can have small amounts without difficulty, but if I start consuming it several times in a 48 hour span, I get cramps.

In periods where I've become addicted to carbs hunger pain is much stronger, but I've been able to keep it down for many years now. So if you're getting it intensely, your gut is probably still reactivating to its old profile.

I believe restriction in the regular diet is one way of correcting it while staying in a routine. But I have also experimented with fasting, intense exercise, hot/cold contrast in the shower, and breathing exercises, and the common theme to each is to challenge homeostasis in some fashion. Obviously there's always some danger in going too far, but if our norm is total comfort, we can definitely drop some aspect of it from time to time.
A better form of understanding of the entrophy standard expansion probably would have been already put in place a bit before 2038, so you don't have to worry about loosing the grip on the schedule. Of everything at hand.
I'd get a separate room and file to expense it, arguing it must have been a company mistake. There's no way they could have a retort to that.

Ironically, while LLVM lives on, Clang is slowly dying and is failing to compete with GCC. Clang's C++20 support lags behind GCC because both of its major corporate sponsors, Google and Apple, have seemingly moved on (after failing to get the ABI changed, Google went over to working on Carbon, and Apple doesn't care as long as the C++ support is good enough to compile LLVM and the C++14 subset required for Metal's shading language). All the other vendors who take advantage of Clang's permissive licensing seem unwilling to upstream improved C++ support.
Could you elaborate? Was it a lack of good practices (source control, staging, testing, etc.) or sth else?

I was mid-senior when I changed to a research SWE job. Might be able to offer some insight on some specific problems.

But in general, each place has its own expectation about code quality and process. One of the most important skill for a SWE is to not expect anything when joining a new place, but adapt to that place's way of working instead.
Nope. It’s the backbreaking work in tight places with a high probability of wallowing in shit.
That is a common falsehood.

Parallel threads need an alternative sealing method, or they’ll leak. If low pressure, dope or tape might be enough, but it’s using the fitting wrong.

Usually there is a flare, mating surface, or o-ring type setup that should be used instead. Examples would be welding tank connections, or scuba tanks that are at thousands of PSI.

For NPT, if the fitting is properly tightened, the fitting deforms and the threads mash together. They won’t leak even at hundred of PSI.
You absolutely can just "run out of air". Equipment malfunctions happen.

Was on a dive where one of the girls hoses blew. She didn't remember her training and shot up to the surface - thankfully we were at ~5m already, but she still got the bends and they sent her to a decompression chamber.

Buddy was recently on a trip and had both his primary and secondary regs malfunctioned while deep. He was able to swim to his girlfriend, but he's been off-put from diving since then - and he's not inexperienced.

Having a buddy is nice, but honestly isn't reliable. Most of the time I'm joining a boat as a single, and while we have our group - it's really only the dive master that's paying attention to people. Everyone else is usually inexperienced or just doesn't even think to keep an eye on others because they're out on vacation.

And even when you do have a good dive buddy, you're not usually attached at the hip. Very often you're looking at something that intrigues you and your buddy gets bored to swim a few meters a way, etc. It'll happen 1000x times in a single dive.
> ISO is basically a linear gain that's done on the sensor.

It's usually not done on the sensor - it's usually done by the ADC that performs sensor readout.

Some cameras use a technology like Aptina-DRPix to dynamically change the capacitance of the sensor FETs, but (as far as I'm aware) this only exists in a simple binary form right now. E.g. one of my cameras reduces sensor gate capacitance when the ISO exceeds 800, but otherwise any ISO changes only affect off-sensor hardware.
> Earlier this year, Mr. Verma experimented with raising rents enough to cover the cost of spiking wages, property taxes, insurance and maintenance. Turnover doubled in the properties where he tried it, as people left for nearby buildings.

> “It’s crushing our margins,” Mr. Verma said. “Our profits from last year have evaporated, and we’re running at break-even at a number of properties. There’s some people who think landlords must be making money. No. We’ve only gone up 12 to 14 percent, and our expenses have gone up 30 percent.”

Umm yeah...that's called capitalism.

EDIT: I am getting downvoted, probably by the tech people that own airbnbs on the side. Keep em coming, cupcakes.
Re-captcha is about google exercising monopoly power to try and force you to use their browser and let them track you. It has little to do with finding stopsigns or whatever. It would be cool to see that problem addressed, i.e. allow me to use the internet normally without a browser and privacy settings that google endorses.

Incidentally, in almost all cases, if I'm faced with a recaptcha, I just don't do the thing. I have foregone purchases and charity donations, and not used products, because organizations care so little about their customers that they think making us solve a puzzle before we give them money is acceptable.

Your understanding is incorrect, and not based on any actual science. Energy needs are highly correlated with body size (and other factors like activity level and genetics).

I wouldn't be so extreme, since Americans do display care and neighborly affection in a myriad of other ways. What is the case though, is that americans have reified freedom to mean actual cars. Curbing driving in a car (very specifically this) is perceived as curbing of freedom. It's a disease of the american mind.

Indeed, clang has better error messaging than g++/gcc. Just my 2 cents, if you have a choice, do your C or C++ bit in Rust (which like Clang, is llvm based). I've been writing C/C++ for a very long time now, it's time to move away from it slowly....to a better tool like Rust.
You can route all traffic through community invidious instances so Google can not even track what content is consumed by your IP.

It also automatically skips all ads, even sponsor segments in videos.

You also avoid needing to have a Google account to keep up with subscriptions, and you avoid content suppression as the sponsor-prioritized advertiser-friendly algorithms are turned off.
FTX remains focus of 'active' investigation, Bahamas Attorney General says
The goal of the YouTube algorithm is not to give you great videos but keep you mildly entertained for long periods of time.

In my experience the 'suggested videos' next to the video you're watching is more than good enough to get recs.

I use newpipe and put all the videos I like in a playlist. So everytime I want new videos I just scroll through the list, click on a video and just try something from suggested videos.

I've tried to use Nix multiple times for things that it would be perfect for... I really want to use it (this is the 5th time I've given it a shot) ... and every time I put it down.

You've built a great tool here, seriously nice work!

... but you built it on an experimental feature that isn't enabled by default, that requires understanding the extensibility mechanisms to add experimental features that the Nix project doesn't feel comfortable calling done yet, that may change in future

... except everyone says flakes are totally stable and fine to use cause. Like basically everyone seems 100% fine with flakes... to the point where I've even come across first time Nix user tutorials that assumed you had already jumped through the hoops to enable an experimental feature a.k.a. "flakes" and this was several months ago.

But if flakes are so amazing and so stable everyone is using it and assuming everyone uses it and wants everyone to use it... after an entire year of wide public use ... why aren't they a stable feature yet, or even planned for release as a stable feature?

Once Nix can get this sorted, I'll probably be using it within a week. But I'm not comfortable diving in and making heavy use (I've played with Nix at every layer, from my macOS user as a homebrew alternative, to Docker/Container building, to running entire headless and desktop immutable OS installs on bare metal using NixOS) ... but for now its still an experimental feature so once again I'm putting Nix back in the "check it out again later next time HN gives me a good reason" drawer... I'm not going to rely on experimental features and I'm not going to learn and internalise how to do everything the hard way when flakes is obviously better (I did actually RTFM on all this), I just keep waiting for it to be blessed as stable.

Freetube has built-in support to proxy all content via Invidious.
My impression is, GCC development team is more open to mainlining support for obscure architectures, Clang/LLVM require stronger evidence of demand and maintenance commitment.

Of course, 99.9% of people don't use any obscure architecture, so that's irrelevant to them.
I would take Wednesdays off.

No more than 1 day away from a day off. Need to schedule an appointment for anything: Wednesday.
You’re right, I was exaggerating for effect. But the point is that we’re talking about learning the language. You don’t have to get it perfect on your first try or do everything the best way when you’re just getting started.
I think the idea is that it becomes like fruit and vegetables. You purchase them unwrapped, wash them, and eat them. This would have implications on the supply chain of course to try and keep these items clean.

It could also replace individually wrapped items, such as in a box of cereal bars the individual bars wouldn't need plastic wrap.
See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camanchaca for more info.
Having done this in a minor way, my advice is:

1) do some reading on the field, hopefully something written for the non-Ph.D. student; you will never be able to keep up with the pros but it will help you to understand what you are being asked to do

2) no one cares about your software's internals but you, probably, which has two major consequences: no one is interested in the great thing you did to the internals, and no one will keep you from getting lost in a rats nest of unmaintainable code.

3) you will need to do a bit of "code for you", stuff like unit tests and refactoring for better readability and maintainability, but no one wants to wait on you doing before you do the thing they want done. So, just allocate something like 25% of every task or project to that kind of thing, as just administrative overhead. Don't bother telling anyone else about that, except at a very high level if they ask. It's like a chauffeur getting the limo an oil change or other maintenance: the boss just wants to say "get me from A to B", and you have to make sure that the stuff to keep the car running in good order gets done without him having to tell you to do it.

4) you will not be able (or allowed) to do as much of (3) as you want, just do what you can

Seems like forgoing charity donations over something like a recaptcha is an incredibly bizarre hill to die on.

The main purpose of recaptcha is to prevent bots from abusing services, and has much less to do with exercising “monopoly power to … track you”.
Someone already mentioned Snuba - which is an interesting choice. I enjoyed that, as you're not bogged down by weight of equipment - but you're also tied to a boat and the setup I had didn't give me access to see the air left up top so I was always a bit paranoid.

Most dive shops have "Discover Scuba" which is basically they give you some brief training, but then they go on a scuba dive with you to a shallow depth (6m I think?) and basically hold your hand the whole time.
> On the problem of weight needed to sustain a crew

They say 4 people need 11 tons of food for a 1100 day mission. That’s 2.5 kg per person per day. It looks like this includes water. Water can (and is) recycled in space missions. A lot of food in space is dehydrated (you can buy astronaut ice cream at any science museum, and it’s not that bad). You may get away with only 0.5 kg of solid food per person per day.

If they did the same type of generous estimates elsewhere, then maybe 100 tons would suffice, instead of 300. And 100 tons is how much the Statship is supposed to be able to carry.
I agree. The concept of "black friday" is not the same anymore and most of the best deals can be found on the days prior to the actual date. For example, NordVPN is running a discount offer (in fact, VPN services run discounts most of the year but whatever) for a 63% discount. A week ago, they already had a "black friday special offer" for a 68% discount. So, probably check those offers before the actual day.
It's primarily a corporate-level thing, but just as Windows has a strong set of ACLs that people at home ignore, it could be the same scenario on Linux.
This arguments stands in a fully rational market with fair competition guaranteed by a controlling entity.

Youtube doesn't have any competition at its scale, not using it isn't a rational choice. Even school assignments will have YouTube links to watch. I think we're at the point where your statement sounds like a "if you don't like the Standard Oil company just don't buy their oil" rehash.
>Furthermore, nitrox is quite popular, especially among older divers as many seem to agree they have more energy near the end of a 2 tank or multiple tank dive day.

Anecdotally, Nitrox is supposedly good for hangovers.
This is nice, but we should avoid strictly focusing on the environmentally-specific properties of the product, but rather on whether the manufacturing process is scalable and cheap enough, and whether the product's other properties, like strength and food safety are worth the trade-off. Especially when starting the article with "But first, the industry needs to get on board."

It's like that solar road idea: 1000x more expensive, 100x more complex, and requires constant maintenance.

It's identity, which is why Google shows "Your computer or network may be sending automated queries" message on recaptcha if you trigger too many heuristic and IP reputation signals to be classified as a bot. That's why, for Google, you get to carry around your reputation in the form of your Google Account, and for Cloudflare, they have private access tokens[0] (which might be the only reason you don't get blocked by every CF site on iCloud Private Relay), and otherwise Cloudflare's big ambition is "human attestation" via WebAuthn credentials[1,2].

For x86 in certain cases, I think gcc produces better code still. But x86_64 / aarch64 looks different, and there I would assume the gap between gcc/clang is not big.
