I've read two accounts of children who, upon learning that Santa Claus was not real, spontaneously concluded for themselves that God was not real either. Not necessarily a bad lesson! But probably not the one intended by the people who taught those kids about Santa :)

And while I'm sure DocuSign is a very profitable product line, I also suspect that for many companies that use it (like financial firms) its cost is somewhere around their paper clip budget.
VimScript has been in development for 30 years now. There has been support for many other languages (including Lua) for over 20 years, well before Neovim was a thing. The idea that Vim9Script is only due to Neovim is one of those weird ideas that I will never understand.

I don't especially like Lua as a language (it's okay-ish, I guess, but not great), and I certainly don't think it's a good fit for a Vim configuration language, but it's okay to disagree on that. But it seems that some people are unable to comprehend that some people don't think that Lua is a gift from heaven for Vim.

Vim9Script is very similar to "legacy VimScript", but with slightly different syntax and typing. Overall, I'd say is less of a breaking change than Python 3 was, and it's not like Python 3 is a "new language": just a continuation of the >20 years of Python 1 and 2 before it.
I'm going to just put it out there that developers who tolerate a flakey CI are, by definition, worse developers than those who don't. Possibly because lower competence, but more likely less experience of much damage a flakey CI causes to productivity and morale.
Is that an ad-hominess? or just a cope because you are still unable to deliver any evidence for you claims.
"Why isn't this happening at my home?
Unlike at home, in a commercial (office, warehouse, lab) environment there are many more demands placed on a Mac device’s WiFi radio as it is getting many more passive connection requests from other devices using the AWDL protocol. The more Apple devices you have on a network, the worse this issue gets."

Well, it might not happen to those rich Apple developers living in their mansions. It sure does happen to us plebes living in apartment complexes. Years ago my ThinkPad found 70 (!) WiFi networks next to me. AWDL is a nightmare here.

Beyond has less calories, and less calories from fat. it also has less cholesterol and more protein. at least, according to this source. I suppose your final statement still stands, though. But to me the Beyond looks healthier, especially if you compensate for that increase in sodium elsewhere in your cooking.
I saw this. My take was that your response was seen as parroting a popular concept. "Everyone" is forming opinions on ChatGPT, but some are forming those opinions by talking to others and some by talking with ChatGPT.

I feel that by referencing a concrete example of a conversation I had with GPT that others elevated their perception of my response from mere gossip to ~fact.

The tires my Tesla came with lasted only about 20,000 miles. I replaced them with better tires and those are not even close to wearing out after 30,000 additional miles.
Funny you should ask this because I just launched https://www.learngpt.com, a site for browsing and sharing interesting ChatGPT examples.

Here's the launch thread, posted several minutes before you asked this: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33923907

You'll find a lot of great examples on the site (and please share more as you find them).
> It’s supply and demand. The skills required to be an executive at a large company are very hard to find, so companies need to compete with each other for the small supply of candidates that are eligible for the job.

You're very nearly making the argument that the eligibility requirements are too strict, not that the skills are rare. Why do all the CEOs come from the same handful of schools and have the same backgrounds? Is that the only way to acquire the skills?

> most people do not have the ambition, drive or resiliency to survive the stress induced in those positions

Ok I am willing to buy that stress tolerance and a certain understanding of ambition are the main skills here.

> I believe over time the problem will be less of an issue as general intelligence in the population rises

Are stress tolerance and ambition closely linked to intelligence? I haven't found that to be the case in my experiences but maybe someone has looked into it idk. Seems relevant though.

> due to more open access to knowledge.

Does mere access to knowledge directly increase intelligence? Very exciting implications if so.

> some people have significant advantages, either environmental or genetic, and not all people are equal.

Not all people are the same but they are all equal in some important senses nearly universally recognized at this point. Like their need for access to certain material conditions, their innate dignity and rights.

> would you as a nation like to capitalize on your talent and give incentive to those few advantaged to rise to their level of competence?

The Talented Tenth but for white people? Ok gotta admit you caught me by surprise with this one lol. I feel like it didn't work out that well the first time around but who knows.

> Or would you rather treat everyone as equal, let talent go to waste, and become stagnant?

I don't think these things are connected at all. If you're going to draw a link between them then do so, but putting them together in a sentence doesn't establish that.

> The rising tide lifts all boats, and that can be shown by the fact we’ve nearly eliminated poverty in the last 100 years, which is not celebrated enough.

It might lift all boats but it also floods the shore. Food is cheap (well, was!) but healthcare is unattainable. Is it really eliminating poverty if we just let the impoverished die? I mean technically yes but that sort of "elimination" has a, literally, atrocious history when used as the basis of public policy.

Anyway I don't think poverty is as eliminated as you think it is! If people's potential is limited by their circumstances, which I agree that it is, then our need is to change their circumstances not exploit the differential as some sort of piezo-economic motor.
I think you mean 2010s, with the release of Avatar in 2009 ?

3D movies are still around, though sadly "real" 3D is pretty rare (remove the "Filmed in 2D" from the list, and of course the Digital 3D animations have different constraints : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_3D_films_(2005%E2%80%9....

But it's kind of weird that you would say this, with 3D now being an option in cinemas everywhere now (if not in homes any more, though my own TV is still compatible), especially with Avatar 2 that just released ?

IIRC 2020's all-virtual NixCon was simultaneously streamed to live.nixos.org, YouTube, Twitter, and maybe a PeerTube instance (conf.tube?) from self-hosted infrastructure.

The more recent one in Paris might've been only on YouTube, idr. So maybe it doesn't always seem worth it to conference organizers. But it definitely seems at least doable.
I'm used to having a Python middleware in my Go web application just for ML, The idea of achieving the same with just one monolith application using Elixir is very tempting.

Has anyone switched to Elixir from Go for writing web apps? What has been your experience like?
It seems fair, as long as the fines and penalties for continuing noncompliance are backdated to when the initial decision was made, even if they're only due after the last appeal fails.

With that setup, if they're confident that they'll come out on top, they can keep tracking while appealing. If they're less confident, they'll pause tracking to prevent the buildup of fines.
> but all motion still needs to be stopped through friction against the ground

But that's not really true, either with an EV with regen braking or standard brakes. With standard brakes, it's the friction and heat at the brake pads that causes deceleration. With regen braking, the energy of deceleration is going to charge the batteries.
“High-quality” is an extremely vague notion

I'm glad you said that. This notion of "high quality" just refers to the essential amino acids it contains. There is no intrinsic quality to a particular protein source, they are broken down into single amino acids or very small (tripeptide or less) in digestion, anyway. Anyone can get all essential amino acids necessary for their body's protein synthesis from a mix of plant sources, too, it just requires a little planning.

Most people should look more at metabolic disorders as a factor in middle age or later sedentary lifestyles, and maybe even secondary vascular disorders' role in health and muscle density in later life. Being active when you are young is great, but their are many other factors in later life health. There is good evidence that veganism is associated with improved average longevity (among other good outcomes). I don't care who eats meat - I do - but it's better to do it with eyes open, and not for faulty reasons.

Bringing it back to the article though, some of the plant based products being brought to market give me pause because of how processed they are. The salt, sugar, and fat levels are getting high and you lose the benefits of less processed vegetables.
>This is civil law, not criminal. Presumption of innocence doesn’t apply.

If the court is so sure that the plaintiff will prevail, why even have a trial? The answer is that until the court rules, barring 100% certainty of the plaintiff prevailing, you have to wait for the court's deliberation or you have only oppression and no justice at all. Both sides must have a chance to make their case.
What this will do is get the gears moving on finding a good-enough alternative that is not a ticking time bomb.
> This might not only be about protecting the children.

Sadly, it never is about protecting the children. It's always about pushing other agendas that are, at best, tangentially aimed at protecting children.

For example, holding back Texan teens (aka Gen Z, who had a huge impact on the recent midterms) from being a part of the broader political discussion; from informing themselves before they're able to vote.

This would make it harder to make a social media account, make it harder for people to try out new platforms thereby cementing the monopoly of the current ones, make it impossible to make an account without giving your real name to the social media platform — something which people will also be especially reluctant to do with new platforms.
My partner and I created a very successful business in the UK out of selling mushroom grow kits and microscopy spores.

We didn’t think there would be any market here because there weren’t any UK shops doing it. Then a couple of years later it took off and growing mushrooms became cool.

In this time we learned how to run a webshop and navigate an industry where every payment processor dropped us - to the point where we only accept cash, bank transfer and crypto.

Our Woocommerce shop was built on pure passion for mushrooms and a crazy late night idea. The kinds you usually just leave as an idea. Now it has consumed our lives and we have multiple employees.

Our business continues to grow with recent months bringing in around £60K/month in revenue.

I had never known what it was like going to a supermarket and not having to add the cost of everything in my head. But with the money, I learned the most valuable lesson - it could all go tomorrow and I would be totally fine with it.
A news Show doesn't have a broadcaster reaching out to young children...trying to rape them.
When our oldest asks about Santa Claus, we just ask her what she thinks and never answer with a "yes" or "no". When she can reach the logical conclusion that there isn't one then she'll know there isn't one.

At least at our kids' current age (8, 5 & 5), other kids alone telling them won't convince them about it. We do leprechaun pranks, which we tell them are just us, which their classmates don't believe in (they've discussed this), and they still believe it's real.

They also think faeries are real despite us saying they aren't - their older cousin likes to play "faerie" pranks when she visits. They think we think they aren't real because, since we don't think faeries are real, they never interact with us.
This is actually something we are working on getting rid of. What separates us from other python frameworks is that we compile down to a nextjs/react app (the user never sees this though). This is really beneficial because it allows us to add any react library in a matter of hours vs other python frameworks where it can take a much longer time to add new ui feature. Also for performance and SEO nextjs is great.

But to keep it short there is a way to get rid of this in the future and we are currently working on it. So the only installation step will be `pip install pynecone-io`
Are you comparing premade beyond meat patties to raw ground beef? Beyond meat burgers are preseasoned which is why the sodium is higher. You could eat unseasoned ground beef, but it wouldnt be very good.

Sure, it helps. However not only are EVs heavier, but there's a significant incentive to use narrow tires (for the weight) to increase efficiency and range.

As a result, while not skidding, it's easy to accelerate, brake, or decelerate enough to scrub the tires hard enough to wear quickly.

It's pretty well known that Teslas are hard on tires. One benefit is I rarely use brakes instead of regenerative braking. Having AWD does seem to help on that front.
I have a new project I have been working on, a long lived network server. Build went from in emacs compile, using go, basically only noticeable time is the tests; added a few more components CLIs and a proxy server, so did the Makefile thing, works fine, very fast, still use M-x compile for active coding.

I just spent three days making it dockerized and the builds are often 5 minutes, due to go build getting all the deps at the go mod tidy stage which is after the copy source tree into docker step and hence not cached at all. Deployment will be on docker so whatever.

After a day of writing go, I feel happy and smart and content. After a day of getting docker files to works I feel pleased but a little like I have eaten too much candy.

I have a friend who's been doing computer vision for ages, for security applications (think: automated passport control booths), and they always had to hide the Xbox cameras when customers came to visit. Apparently, they are (were?) absolutely amazing for the price, and great to develop with, but it's always hard to explain why you're using gaming accessories for developing super critical stuff.

As for deliveries, London isn't super car-friendly, so I only do shopping in person when I'm comfortable carrying the shopping home. As you say, different lives... :)
> It also wraps every query in an explicit transaction unnecessarily causing locks to be held while waiting for the commit from the server

no it doesn't. It only wraps updates in transactions, and a single line update would have an implicit transaction at the database anyway.
Did you reply to the wrong comment? This doesn't seem relevant to remote audio
It sounds fairly accurate to me. This is what killed the US-EU Privacy Shield program, twice. That was the government's attempt at creating a way for US companies like Facebook to legally process data of EU citizens under GDPR. It's been struck down by the EU courts, due to our federal government's spy powers and the CLOUD Act, that invalidate any claims US companies make about protecting personal data in their possession.
And there’s so much attention on “oh no, take-home assignments are impossible now” but if so, I see the education world adapting. Instead of writing an essay about Napoleon, a bot will interview you like an oral exam — a far superior evaluation, but when done by humans there was just never enough to time in their day to do them regularly and for everyone. Instead of a homework assignment done behind closed doors and then tossed over the fence for the TA to grade, the bot pair programs with you and helps you through the places you’re getting stuck.
I used to do similar things until I met Borg Backup. I highly recommend it.
This is a terrible proposal in it's intent and it's even worse in how it could be implemented. I see everyone here boldly claiming that a particular type of website is "bad" (???) for people but I've never seen that causal link backed up in any reputable journal. What does "bad" (???) even mean?

Websites are not drugs. Websites do not directly manipulate incentive salience and throw the brain's motivations out of wack like, say, cocaine or methamphetamine or tobacco do. Websites have to actually be enjoyable intrinsically before they alter your motivations. This is very unlike drugs. Trying to pass legislation like this that pretends people are without volition signals a far deeper danger: that the state no longer considers people to have volition and that it will force them to make the "correct" decisions. That's appropriate re: some drugs but entirely unjustified here.
Which social media? Does that include discord and forums? Reddit? Those are all social media too
> In retrospect I think of this as a failure of leadership on my part. Many years later when Chrome eventually inevitably switched to using Git only, I think it was a multi-year project to dig out from SVN. Had I spent a little bit of time advocating for something that was pretty obvious to me I would've saved those people a lot of time.

I really appreciate this attitude - definitely something I can learn from. It's easy to look back on something and say, "I knew X was the right idea, if only everyone listened to me". It takes maturity to say, "It was a failure on my part for not advocating more for X". It's not applicable to every team or situation, but in general I think it's a much better attitude to have.
The concrete problem here depends on when and how often adjustments are needed.

That's right. Plenty of great software has been developed by the "lock a smart, creative, determined nerd who's _obsessed_ with his/her product in a garage for a month" methodology.

Folks who have bought into the vision of the project and are motivated to "do it right, make it good" have a much higher chance of a successful product than a team who are attending the religious ceremonies and cargo-culting. These methodologies are like painted-lines and highway-signs; they can be great guidelines, but ultimately the driver has to want to avoid getting into an accident and aware enough to realize blindly following the lines/signs won't achieve that on its own.

Edit: *I use "nerd" here as a term of affection, not derogatorily. I proudly call myself a nerd. :)

What features do you use from gvim? I used to switch between them, but I hated updating the vim font when I decided to change my terminal font, so eventually I just switched to the terminal version full-time. It's been over 10 years at this point, but I don't remember anything useful in gvim.
