I'm gonna disagree with this one. People chose to put uo with HOAs because 1) most new developments have them 2) SFH w/ HOA are more expensive

You're assuming that they were unaware what they were saying wasn't true. It's possible they were fully aware it wasn't but said it anyways for professional advantage.

I teach "several small unconnected words" as the password algorithm. You can literally crack open a dictionary and pick words at random.
If your space software project is late, just throw more people at it - it will be done that much faster!

Like really, even if you indeed made the JPL budget 100x bigger, at least short term you would indeed have the issue if not enough people being available to build and run all those robotic missions.
Things may have changed but IIRC you can bid on a competitors keyword on Google BUT you cannot use their trademarked brand in the content.

It’s both consistent and reasonable. We had the same policy back in old country: the common people were disarmed, while wealthy people (like my family) had armed guards.
I'm shocked (but not totally surprised) at the response to the concept on HN. I cannot even imagine how one could think this is a good thing - necessary, I can understand, but not a good thing.

I don't even know how to argue that this is bad. I'll just lose all my faith in society if this ever happens where I live.
Ask HN: How Was Your Year in 2022
Hi HN,

I'm curious to hear about everyone's year in 2022! What were some of the highlights of your year? What did you build, achieve, or overcome, either personally or professionally?

Personally, the last year wasn't too bad.

- finished my masters

- took up writing

- worked on my social & comm skills

- started working out

- made lots of good connections

- read quite a few books

- spent quality time with family

- traveled to several places I've been wanting to visit for years

I'd love to hear about some of the things you all have been up to in 2022. What are you most proud of from this past year? Let's share our experiences and accomplishments in the comments below!

Best regards, Rex
I was not aware that Texas is in the midwest... I am not sure what Texas has to do with anything here.

That said, no one isreplacing NatGas with Electric Resistive Heating, that would be crazy, NatGas is still cheaper in most cases for people north of say KY but there are alot of HeatPumps going in

I am unclear why you think replacing a NatGas heater with a HeatPump "would not increase the total electricity usage at all" that is just false, and I am not even sure why you would claim other wise, NatGas is not an Electric Fuel Source so when you change from a non-electric fuel source to an electric fuel source you will use more electricity. Now changing from Resistive Electric to heatPump would actually drop your electrical usage in some cases (above 0degrees anyway)

Around here it is not uncommon to have a HeatPump with a Gas "emergency" heater for when it gets too cold for the heatpump, as Electric Resistive is TERRIBLE and expensive. The problem is when that combo is sold normally it is wiht 80% furnances or they just leave the old furnace in place and just upgrade the AC/Heatpumpt
That's not the language ABI. This is the same term used for two different things. Language ABI is stuff like "this is how name mangling works", "this is how parameters are passed", and "this is the widest integer type."
> Go do some reading on the subject. A good place to start is trying to enumerate exactly what heritages count as white, and how that has changed over time.

This is clearly from someone who hasn't experience other cultures. White, black, asian, latino labels were all made up around 1700-1800s and all have been argued who's included all over the world even now, is a human created concept that has changed over time. Like most Americans your clearly making up for any biases of an all white upbringing and systemic racist past by being anti-white now.
I interpreted it as 'you went there and won, so you must really believe in your proposition'.

I also suspect that there were more than one reason for the fight, but you'd never know by asking.
There’s a sub-link in there to InsuranceEZ that has the data I’m referring to:

Question is whether and to what extent you can shortcut that lifecycle, and whether it's worth trying.
I’m unfamiliar with this. What are the kinds of things one could do with this? Why is it useful?
This is usually responsible for bad code. Which, to be fair, is often associated with complexity. They are different, though.
All you have to do is use a relocatable stack/heap hybrid like Go does.

They mentioned not having social media accounts to show that AirBnB couldn't have any information about them or them being related to the host. (OTOH, their namesake may have a social media account and that may be linked to the host. In theory.)
Second time today that someone has mentioned React-query to me. Sign that I need to look that up finally
People are allowed to realize they've made mistakes and change their minds/priorities as a result.
If they did that it could work. It would need to allow full control of setting up whatever OS you want, be it Windows, *nix based, etc.
It doesn't surprise me that this is a problem in less well established Wikipedia languages.

I'm also very glad that the broader entity is aware and dealing with these matters.
Both the Apple and Chrome password managers sync to the cloud so as long as they can sign in to their account on another computer or phone, they can still get access to the saved passwords.
What is the point of having warnings then.
iCloud Keychain has done more to raise the tide for passwords than any other password manager in existence. I love that it “just works” for the vast amount of people who use iOS/Mac.
This mode is essentially universal. Our brain is a world modelling and outcome prediction machine. It being wrong would be an existential threat in the environment it evolved to function. This is why being fundamentally wrong is extremely uncomfortable for us.

The difference is in the level of abstraction an individual takes their stand at and becomes uncomfortable when challenged. Which, I think, depends on how grounded their beliefs, knowledge or opinions are - how many layers and columns of "I'm still right" they can fall back to.
The Bloods being another infamous example of gang starting out as self-protection.
It's not inherently bad. Some regulations are dumb and should be challenged by the market, like Uber and Lyft did to taxi companies and the protectionist regulations that kept them from evolving and improving.

It's less about removing the review or listing and more about looking at the belief system in the business. If a local government says "this space is for permanent residents only" AirBnB would say, "why?" and would rather ignore or fight the regulation than comply (or more likely "take it up with the host, not us").

There are legitimate questions to what terms a government/HOA can force on property owners renting out their residences. From taxation to civil rights and racial equity there's a lot on the table to challenge. That said, companies can be reckless when choosing not deal with the question because it doesn't have an easy answer and grow/scale at ethics' expense.

AirBnB has actually had to deal with this, like removing the ability of hosts to see guest photos before booking because of racial discrimination, and charging the appropriate hospitality taxes on listings to comply with the vast number of of municipalities they operate in.
Why is every commenting about texas? No where in my comment did I mention texas, the closest was "texts" i.e SMS messages, not texas.

That's a pretty glib dismissal of a peer-reviewed and heavily cited study with a ton of data. Calling any of these interventions a social sledgehammer is laughably hyperbolic. How does any of what I said really on racism being simple? The name on the resume is obviously a symptom of a larger problem and only one of many ways someone's race shows up in any number of consequential situations far more difficult to spot, like in neural network derived decisions. No I don't blame crime fighting for the increased resistance to crime fighting because the actions taken by cops that people are actually mad about are crimes and opposing them is crime fighting. That you consider interrogating our culture to highlight racism to be political extremism says a lot. I'm all done here.
Yes, the Windows UX is a sedimentary landscape of decades of leftover stuff that still works and nobody will fund updating. But the inconsistency is even deeper. Just in the examples in the article you can see the whole history of Windows system fonts, which are all (at least back to MS Sans Serif) still there and in use. And if you try hard enough, you can find a single window using two or three different text rendering algorithms!
This is Mazda. They have yet to get serious about electrification. Worse than Toyota in that regard. I am beyond giving them the benefit of the doubt that this was anything but “hey we don’t have to make BeVs!!”

My mom cannot understand how to use auto fill etc, but what I did was to set up a KeePass database file for her on her google drive and just sync it up on every device. She refuses to use anything but an android and she acquiesced to an iPad when I told her android tablets are still catching up. So I just found the most common service - google - and put everything on it. She now knows to open it and expose the password as well as create new entries. She still can’t copy paste or handle the generator.

My dad does not give a flying fuck however many times you tell him and just writes it down in a notebook. He just doesn’t care despite much of the family wealth residing mostly in his accounts.
Sure but that doesn't happen by getting everyone in a Zoom call and going around the room asking "Tell us a about time you felt vulnerable"

Or leaving a job that makes them miserable. I have friends with great eating and fitness habits but their jobs makes them unhappy.
In the enterprise sometimes things are complex and sometimes things are getting complex when you take a team of 100 people and ask them to build a new system they will build a huge system and discuss for months about reliability, error handling, remote storage, and a lot more needed systems.

Each specialisation will define some constraints that will only be needed when their system is 3 years old but present it as if you dont start with that it will be hard to add it afterwards.

Thus if you ask a 100 people department to create a new web app it will create a web app that will provide enough work for 100 people.
You could do this now with HTML canvas and web assembly, but you won't, because the web already has a rich feature set of accessible and search engine friendly features.

> but could concentrate on what really matters we wouldt have such a big problem

Curious for someone who dismisses the complexity of front end, what you think really matters in creating a cross platform UI application experience that works on all devices?
I originally replied to OP, but honestly, I like your take more. It more accurately reflects how I see Portland. I'll add my mess:

Glad you asked! I grew up in a small town in Texas that is now a big town. Portland has some urban growth boundaries that contain its growth, so I was attracted to the idea that a big city is literally up against farm land and wild life. It makes it feel like a little, big town. Portland is also densely packed with trees in my part of town. There's lots of greenery and wildlife for a city this size. It's also set next to rivers with a lot of programs for water and wildlife sustainability. The people are really nice, even the neighbors I mentioned. It's a very working-class community for the most part and that makes me feel like I'm back in Texas. It's an amazing place to live and also, maybe most importantly, one of the areas predicted to deal with climate change better.

Lastly, can't really stress how nice #2 is. The cops don't bug you for simple stuff and it makes life a lot less stressful on the daily. Being in a big city is like camouflage.

The reason we don’t drink distilled water is that it ends up robbing your body of minerals. But you can get the same effect by overhydrating. One of the signs being having clear urine all day long. Your kidneys should be concentrating urea, otherwise the water just carries nutrients away without an upside.

I'm pretty deep into radio and never in a million years would have thought I would be. I even remember giving a co-worker a hard time for getting his ham radio license. Now, I'm a full-fledged GMRS and ham nerd.

1) It's worth getting into for 3 reasons: emergency communications, learning about some very interesting technical things like how antennas work, networked repeater systems, and there's a social aspect to talking with others on simplex and repeaters. Radio is far more technical than I ever realized and it's a very deep topic.

2) There are some good YouTube channels that can give you a quick overview of what's possible (Ham Radio Crash Course, Ham Radio 2.0) I also have a podcast where I talk about GMRS (similar to ham but very limited) at gmrs.fm

You might be surprised at how interesting radio can be. I was.
> A 4x4 with a locked center diff and open front and rear diffs acts just like many AWD implementations.

Thats simply not true. It wouldnt be AWD if it cant adjust the power supplied to each axle. Thats the primary distinction.
Do you know how such a minimal scope had been maintained? I'm envisioning either a pretty new HOA or maybe a structure that somehow forbids scope creep.

It's simple. People live there for the economic opportunity, which is also why the housing is expensive, which is also why the homeless have no homes. Under the supply-constrained NIMBY regime in which housing is never produced, inequality and the effects thereof rise to an equilibrium point where the benefits and the drawbacks are of equal value.

This is why paradoxically cities with high poverty and bad economies also have little homelessness.
I'll add one more book reccomendation on this subject: Sapolsky's "Why zebras don't get ulcers". It's a really eye opening summary of the physiology of the stress response literature. Quite scary at times.
Author's need to for compromised password monitoring and cloud-based operation (in a web browser) exclude the obvious choice: KeepassXC. It supports Argon2, Argon2id, as well as AES-KDF. This works with KeepassDX on Android, but has the expected effect of slowing down access to the DB, since the phone has less power than the laptop.
The problem is that other people or even worse one self decide what is "good practices" which might actually be terrible practices.
From what I’ve read, the homeless people who sleep on the street and generally create trouble (due to severe addiction and other mental issues) are only about 1/3 of the homeless. A lot of the other homeless you would never recognize as homeless, don’t sleep rough, and are not necessarily “chronically homeless” - those are the ones that would benefit from cheaper housing
This work formalizes a lot of really effective ideas I've run across in making high-performance neural networks. Structural (eg, block) sparsity allows a massive reduction in parameters, while still playing nice with GPU/TPU/SIMD memory alignment. As an inductive bias, block diagonality corresponds to breaking a problem into parts, which we tend to recognize as a good problem solving strategy in other domains! The low-rank matrices then allow 'sharing' information between blocks.

The additional nice trick with butterfly matrices is permuting the block diagonal activations to achieve additional sparsity patterns, and then chaining them together. This is in practice very similar to how the Fast Fourier Transform achieves n*log(n) complexity.
A linear type is an annotation on another thing to opt into semantics checking. The linear file probably has an integer file handle hidden insider it.

As long as there is interface/implementation separation, no interface that gives you the underlying handle and not enough reflection in the language to dig it out, you're solid.

Open and close must both be on the inside of the implementation so can breach the abstraction.

Cannot agree with this oversimplification.

Exists community. Yes, every human have his own motives, but many live in countries with effective law enforcement, and many people obey Western Values.

Also important, software is a chain with many parts, some parts of one chain could make really large disruptions, some are less significant.

So overall, real formula includes trust, humanity values, laws, government effectiveness and inertia of this chain.

SEEKING WORK, REMOTE or HYBRID, US + EU + ASEAN

Hello, and Happy New Year!

I'm a Software Consultant seeking clients. I have extensive experience with server-side engineering, usually in mission-critical business-focused systems. You can think of me as a Software Architect who loves to code.

I am particularly interested in codebase migration: between languages, between platforms, to/from/between Cloud(s). But I'm happy to hear about your software development needs. If it's server (or serverless!) I can probably help.

Available for full-remote work or hybrid. In the latter case, think: stints at the office, then stints remote. For engagements in the EU or Asia, I am open to full-time on-site.

The author asks "who needs driverless cars?" when we've got uber/lyft. She talks about the jobs that will be lost, but she doesn't seem to consider the flip side, which is that costs for driverless cars may ultimately be lower. That would make transportation less expensive, and more affordable for more people.

Seems like an odd oversight.
