The main argument I see for short variable names is that it's easier to read, and interpret (yes, ironically the exact same case the other side makes). In certain contexts (for small functions, math) code is a lot easier to read when using simple, or single variable names. Every now and then I see someone writing out math formulas with long names, and it's so difficult to grok the equation. Just use single variable names so we can grasp the whole thing in a single glance!
I would also accept “RENT” or Long Term Rental
> Any game that allows trading has a potential to create a secondary market.

Even games without trading (or the ability to do lootboxes with real money) have the potential to create a secondary market, since you can always sell accounts. My OSRS party hat has some real world market value. I don't need to count it as income on my taxes.
Hard time figuring out basic things in reactjs
I've been learning react since 6 days in a bootcamp. 30 mins everyday. And rest of the day I practice myself. I've tough time figuring things out. Like where do I keep my css files, where do I import them. etc.

Is there a mental model for react js to figure these things quickly. eg: ways to add css in react js. I'm confused of them.
The obscure, but extremely relevant concept is the English QWERTY keyboard layout, which places U, I, and O next to each other and makes typos like this more likely when you touch-type with two hands :)
Normal body temperature seems to be falling over time. An analysis of 20 studies between 1935 and 1999 found that the average oral temperature was 97.5˚ F. And a 2017 study of more than 35,000 people found an average body temperature of 97.9˚ F.

I wonder if this can explain rising worldwide rates of obesity.
I heard about this on a podcast but don't remember which podcast it was on. More fungal infections possibly because body temperatures are decreasing.

This is sooo awesome. I stopped going to BN specifically because I’d chat with employees and ask about various authors not on their shelves.

The answer was, “corporate controls everything.”

The employees did get one single end point for “staff recommendations,” but that’s it.

Everything else in BN was turning into Spencer’s Gifts. I was half expecting sex toys and supermodel posters to appear.

To hear they put the stores back into local control and that it’s been successful is one of the most hopeful signs for our collective future.
Such invective. You must have a pretty empty life to even bother writing so much.

But you can't leave it alone now, can you? Maybe now you'll have to write fifty paragraphs. Stay up all night doing it, too.

For the average user, nagging them to get the 5 hour faster route is the right strategy.

Extremes much?

You act as if there are two options only. Relentlessly nag the user, and not tell them at all.

There is another. Ask the user, and be done with it.

When I click on decline, I mean it. Everyone does. And it isn't just nagging, it literally forces you to click no every time, or your route changes.

When in traffic. In seconds. Immediately. Over and over.

It is a terrible design choice.
To piggyback off of this, I predict we'll be hearing (not seeing) the phrase "the internet is fake" a lot more.
What you describe is FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out) and, as far as I'm concerned, is just another marketing trick.

If someone or something truly was valuable to you, whether in the present or in the future, you wouldn't even consider blocking them. The mere fact you are even considering blocking them means they are of no consequence to you.

The smart man figures out what he can get rid of, not what he can add.
The evaporation refrigerator, most commonly powered by natural gas or propane, most commonly seen in RVs and campers, is wholly silent and more reliable and efficient than the common electric compressor variety. It can of course work equally well driven electrically.

That we ended up with compressor refrigerators getting the lion's share of benefit of mass production is a tragic accident of history: General Electric drove refrigeration into homes, and wanted to build electric motors.
Not easy to discuss this political analysis. Not a lot about how, technically, things went wrong here. Those details about how the tech failed, why SWA couldnt adapt arent entirely mysterious & unspoken, but still arent super clear either. Saying that the bosses didnt get it is fine, but more elaboration on what they didnt get, how things really went so bad would be nice.
come on, it's on wikipedia and they put it on their linkedin. It's really not that difficult, it's not like they tried to keep their identities secret.
That's literally what I did in Facebook, but then it revealed what I already knew: it's completely useless to me.

A DownDetector that doesn’t suck?
Frankly, I'm too the point where this question is a bit too close to "Do you know of any condition that can be cured by snake oil?"

Before anyone says that's hyperbolic, the wikipedia page for blockchains uses the words snake oil itself (for some specific use cases): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blockchain

I suspect you might get more mileage out of looking for b2b uses of the underlying data structure which is merkle trees, which we have to thank for git (and apparently DynamoDB and Cassandra).

This article actually looks pretty good: https://medium.com/geekculture/understanding-merkle-trees-f4...

I feel like there is more marketing behind the word blockchain than technology. Blockchain seems like it falls squarely into the buzzword category. I feel like I'm completely crazy, but I have never met a person who used the word blockchain enthusiastically who seemed like they knew anything about anything.

Talking about blockchain before what its used for? I probably won't take the person seriously.

Talking about a project that used blockchain non-gratiutitously and how a blockchain enabled it? Maybe interesting.

I'm not looking to smash curiosity, but when I've tried to answer this question myself the buzz is so overpowering.

I guess what I am saying is that I am curious too, but not hopeful.

Interesting that the original german text uses Celsius as the primary measurement, and provides conversions in Rankine. No mention of Fahrenheit.

Funny that people argue over this and some guy named Wunderlich who measured a bunch of asses.

Did he write that translation or is Google Books fake news?
You’d be shocked to learn how many coworkers you had at Google, I’m sure….
I think the more subtle question is about assets you got via a prize. For example if you win a real-world lottery, you have to pay taxes on the winnings. If you win a crypto lottery, you have to pay taxes on the winnings (at the time of winning, not at the time of cash out!). If you "win" a loot-crate lottery, do you have to pay taxes on your winnings? And afact the answer is no, because the loot crate thing isn't an asset, it's treated more like a consumable good. On the other hand, I can see the argument that in fact it's an illiquid asset (like pre-IPO stock) and so you need to pay taxes on the income immediately.

On the off chance you later sell your account, you should pay taxes on that income and it mostly comes out in a wash, unless the value of the lootbox item has changed significantly (because no one plays fortnite anymore)
I am sorry, but you seem to not understand key points of what I am saying, or appear to be deliberately ignoring them, and/or things said previously. So I have to conclude this conversation, as you have all the answers you demand above.

For instance:

> Why are these people refusing to comply to something so unimportant?

> I'm confused how the pencil hypothetical is related.

Here's the answer. Connect the dots.

> The terminology has a reason.

> The problem is to be triggered by etymology.

Here's the answer.

> There doesn't appear to be any principle behind not moving the pencil or not going along with terminology changes.

> There are more important things to spend any kind of effort than to please someone who's (demands are unimportant).

Here's the answer.

> Life is about other people too. Not just ourselves. You have a small minor issue while others have actual grievances.

> When performed by a mob, it is a DDoS attack, and the reason to not comply with it is the same reason people block sources of the DDoS attacks.

Here's one answer.

> I never said it is unimportant. It is very important for my workflow to be consistent over time for efficiency.

Here's the other.

> How is using main instead of master ruining your efficiency?

> very important for my workflow to be consistent over time for efficiency.

Here's the answer.

I think it's an important aspect of computing, we can often forget the human experience element.

Seasoned creatives I talk to find their environment and the feel of it very important to their productivity, and I think it's the same for computing.

When coding in Windows the feel is that of fluorescent lit room in 2005, sitting next to a filing cabinet with a Cisco phone on my desk that rings every 15 minutes.

Coding in my personalized linux setup makes me feel like a netrunner in cyberpunk and I love that. I know I can achieve the same work in Windows, but the vibes are different.
This is so refreshing to read, but so very rare. I thought the "I don't know, but I'll find out" crowd died out in politics.

To add, < 38°C (100.4°F) is not considered a fever but subfebrile.
It feels like a million years away that we saw the rx580 launch. April 2017, a new "flagship", less ambitious than previous chips, totally massacred by nvidia in raw performance, but super accessibly priced, quite capable, & way better flow control.

Nothing has been as in reach since & it's no wonder sales keep sliding. Especially post the cryptomining insanity.

> [One key possibility] ... Lower metabolic rate: One of the biggest determinants of body temperature is your metabolic rate. Like a car engine that’s idling, your body expends energy just keeping things going, and that generates heat. A lower metabolic rate in modern times could be due to higher body mass (some studies link this with lower metabolic rate), or better medical treatments, preventive measures, and overall health.

I know it's not exactly "thinking with statistics", but it strikes me as too coincidental that the obesity epidemic has only exploded in recent decades too.
As a dad, I don't consider my kids to have a fever until they are closing in on 101. They each run hot to begin with, but also the thermometers generally available to the public never seem to be particularly accurate.
Mostly just every day stuff. But when something special does come up, something like the virtual collection feature of the search comes in handy.
Even if it’s 10% effective, that’s still a lot of avoidable infections. And the price is just being polite.

Sounds like an easy decision.
IIRC some android devices have facebook pre installed.
I'm in loose circles involving archivists in addition to librarians and can confirm that they have some of the most nuanced and insightful takes on information management: discovery, curation, search, etc., especially how these systems serve human users as interfaces to knowledge. It seems obvious to say but feels important to reiterate.
95% latency seems way more useful as a metric than max() would be. It’s better to spend most of your time improving the experience of most users rather than debugging ultra-rare issues that rarely affect users.
Is it possible that thermometer calibration has just drifted slightly over the last couple hundred years? If you told me that the typical electronic thermometer today actually measured around a degree different than the mercury thermometer Wunderlich presumably used, I wouldn't be all too surprised.

Or is there really an accurate and consistent calibration technique that's been in use since at least the 1800s, so we know for sure that it must be humans themselves getting cooler?

A major problem in our society is that '72-year-old' is in the headline. If you are not growing, you are declining or dead. Not only does the world change under your feet, you need that stimulation just to stay healthy.

We ruin the talent, economic value, and freedom and opportunity of a very large portion of the population by dimissing the growth of anyone in late middle-age or later. 72 years old shouldn't be remarkable, but the norm.

From fact checking myself it is worth noting that stable diffusion will absolutely copy things in ways that would probably infringe a copyright (not a layer and not legal advice), but I found this paper interesting both because some of the examples it gives of clear copying don't look all that copied to me, and because some do and they find overall a relatively high rate of copying. 1.8% https://arxiv.org/abs/2212.03860. I believe this is still not peer reviewed.
No. The one that used to be next to DEC SRC near the Caltrain station…but that was 1999 or so. It was just a bookstore for the engineering school, so no hoodies or stuff, or books unrelated to engineering.
> All of the shelves have books with the covers out (just like Amazon's store pioneered)

This makes me think you did not enter a bookstore before you checked out Amazon's version. Many do exactly this for the big, recognizable hits they expect to sell more of.

Also it is a symptom of JIT logistics and inventory minimization, not really a UX concern.

Didn't grow up in France and he was one of my favourite artists of my youth. I could hear his popular tracks as background music on TV and radio but I doubt people knew the artist behind the music.

More recently in a lot of interviews of djs and producers in European EDM scene, they reported that they were inspired to start a music career by him.

I'm not a big fan of using 3rd party recruiters. but, one advantage of using those is that they do a great of job of lighting a fire under the buts of all those HR folks. They find a way to create FOMO in the hiring manager and their HR process. this sometimes, greatly increases the speed of the hiring, at least in the bay area.
It seems very likely to be metabolic rate. Most people are way more sedentary than in the past.

You are likely interested in Drake Landing in Canada.

https://www.dlsc.ca/

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drake_Landing_Solar_Community

https://www.hpbmagazine.org/content/uploads/2020/04/15Su-Dra...

It uses solar in the summer to charge a thermal bore which is discharged in the winter. That provides nearly all of the winter heat from the seasonal thermal energy storage.

> In 2012 the installation achieved a world record solar fraction of 97%; that is, providing that amount of the community's heating requirements with solar energy over a one-year time span.

The third link (the pdf) is the case study from High Performing Buildings on the design of the community.

> At first glance, the tidy two-story houses lining two streets in a Canadian suburb look much like the thousands of other homes that surround them; but a district heating system that stores summer’s abundant solar energy to heat the homes during winter makes this community a global pioneer in heat storage technologies for residential space heating. Drake Landing Solar Community proves that such a system can deliver a large fraction (over 90%) of space heating with solar energy in a cold climate. The builder designed the 52 detached single-family houses to appeal to mainstream home buyers who want energy efficiency without sacrificing aesthetic appeal.

> Drake Landing provides a real-world example of how conventional heat- ing fuel consumption for space heating can be nearly eliminated, reducing greenhouse gas emissions by more than 5.5 tons per house annually. This is made possible in the harsh 9,027 heat- ing degree day climate by using solar heat collectors with seasonal heat storage, energy-efficient house design and construction, and a low temperature district heating network to distribute the heat to the homes.

Note that this isn't more cost efficient - it needs to scale up quite a bit more.

> The project development team understood from the outset that the Drake Landing system was too small to be economically competitive with the extremely low cost of natural gas. However, subsequent feasibility studies show that larger systems of similar design can deliver solar energy at about half of the cost compared to Drake Landing, and additional work is underway to improve cost performance further.
Uh surely "mmHg" is a stable unit of measurement where the calibration is self-evident by its own definition.
I might move from my (very-similar) Yubikey/pass setup[1] (with touch-to-decrypt) to this, GPG isn't exactly fun to use. The one difference I have is I keep some non-critical passwords synced to mobile vya pass-for-ios, with a separate key. The app now supports yubikeys, but I haven't gotten around to setting it up properly yet.

My understanding is that most of that SOL was not liquidated (it was locked in digital contracts preventing its sale and has been "vesting" since shit hit the fan), and nothing is going to be sold anytime soon while the bankruptcy plays out. I'd be curious if anyone has a source for the exact numbers currently liquidated / remaining to be liquidated.

However, that ominous stack of cursed Solana will significantly dampen market sentiment even before it's sold, and that's what probably caused the magnitude of the last selloff.
The gender system in German is something Mark Twain poked fun at in his famous essay "The Awful German Language":

"Every noun has a gender, and there is no sense or system in the distribution; so the gender of each must be learned separately and by heart. There is no other way. To do this one has to have a memory like a memorandum-book. In German, a young lady has no sex, while a turnip has. Think what overwrought reverence that shows for the turnip, and what callous disrespect for the girl."
