I think the issue is that generally speaking making an app takes more time and resources than building a website so it locks smaller players out and reduces choice to some extent. It makes things more centralised. Sure you can build something in react native but it requires a hell of a lot more skills than whipping up some HTML and pouring your heart out…

Absolutely spot on comparison. For some people, RDS is the corner stone of their business. For others even a failed database can be rebuilt from logs within hours and it isn't business impacting.

Yes, it works exactly like I've described:

While iwlwifi supports all 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac/ax the compatibility code
currently only supports 802.11 a/b/g modes. Support for 802.11 n/ac is
to come. 802.11ax and 6Ghz support are planned.

We will get wider IPv6 adoption before 802.11n works on FreeBSD in stable way.

I'm not sure what this was supposed to prove. I said the Marvel movies do well, meaning they do well at the box office. I also said that there are great movies that use CGI explosions. I did *not* say that the Marvel movies are great. They most decidedly are not IMO. You don't have to go all Chris Nolan and blow things up for real to make a good movie. Although I do like a real explosion :)

Meh, JSP and PHP do this already. JSP is of course <%… %>. ColdFusion does it all the time. It’s easier on the eye, especially with editor support, than having to scan for all those ^ characters.

Anyway, my original comment was a take on “PHP but for Go”, and only half serious. I don’t see myself using the product discussed here. I hear the people who say “I disable JavaScript” but frankly I always write my apps so that the frontend part communicates with the backend via JSON API. I’m not a frontend dev…

I understand you find Brian O’s racism and funding of terrorists who shoot black kids to be normal — even something that you’re proud of. And that you find it strange people would object to that.

> That is a very naive view of how elections work, wouldn't you say?

Pardon me, but I'm going to make a mild appeal to authority for a moment. I have run for office, served on a mayoral transition committee, worked closely with elected officials on a range of policy issues (many of which got implemented), and my family are professors in public administration at the top public affairs school in the US (specializing in mediation, dispute resolution, and collaborative democracy). So... uh... I feel pretty confident I know what I'm talking about when I say, that's not naive... that's exactly how elections work.

> You missed some.

Fair enough, B-corp, and Co-op are formal structures in other states. The ones I listed are the ones available in my state, but the point stands. I wasn't counting non-profit, since it's somewhat of a different thing.

> And really you can structure a business however you want as long as taxes get paid.

The LLC is an enormously flexible structure, but there are still limits. Either way, the point stands. There's no reason we couldn't change those limits.

> Salary workers everywhere are laughing.

Agreed, and that's a failure of our labor laws. But again, the point stands. There are structures, laws, and limits. The fact that capitalist businesses are constantly trying to find ways around them isn't an argue in favor of capitalism.

> Forcing everyone at the point of a gun to give up any interests in starting a private enterprise putting their own talents to work - sounds like freedom to you? That explains a lot.

It's not forcing them to give up any interest in starting a private enterprise. They're still perfectly free to start a private enterprise. The difference is that once they hire someone, they have to give that person an equal voice in the enterprise. And yes, that increases freedom.

If you don't want to live in an authoritarian society, you have to give up the freedom to become a dictator. The dictator loses a freedom, but everyone else gains a lot more.

I've published eight novels. It's hard to earn money on fiction, unless you're good at marketing and you're writing a series in a genre that has a lot of binge readers (like romance, mystery, thriller). I do it mainly to satisfy an itch. I get an idea, and I want to get it out on paper.

Non-fiction is easier to sell, if it provides value. You can charge higher prices for programming books than for mysteries, and people will pay because the knowledge they gain from the book will be worth the money.

If your goal is to earn money from writing, please know that even if you produce excellent work, marketing is key. Identify your audience and find ways to connect to them. Have at least a minimal marketing plan in place before you publish.

The post mentioned by surprisetalk, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34250688, was posted about the same time as yours. That guy had a (very) minimal marketing plan, and it worked out pretty well for a first book.

I've mentioned in a previous discussion here that I believe that macOS has the worst UX of all the major OSes. And that belief is mostly because of how horrendous window management is (and Finder but that's a different discussion altogether). The lack of hotkeys for switching workspaces was one of my biggest gripes.

And the culture that has formed around macOS users is to just accept it and buy numerous third apps to fix things that should be a standard feature of the OS.
The other day I heard on here the phrase "cattle, not pets" used as how to treat servers. This seems useful in this context too.

Do they really need to "try" by laying peole off? Why is this the standard move despite the business and finances still booming? It's a weird MBA monkey mimicry game.

I dislike Amazon yet continue to order stuff at the same rate. How many non-government entities have a base like this? Seems like an enviable position.

How many layoff announcements have you seen where the company says "We'd love to keep pursuing this but we flat out can't afford to pay you, we are out of money"? I've seen zero. I understand some of this is prudent financial planning, especially for SMBs, but SFDC and AMZN.. they must be using different calculus.

Amazon appears less dependent on the nearly-free-money-gravy-train compared to most businesses, especially VC and startups.

You tread in strange circles. I'd think a cursory look at history ought to be enough to put the lie to such claims.

For all its faults, California really got this one right. In some ways, this goes to show just how remarkably harmful non-competes are to the economy.

Honestly I haven't found one that I'd call really usable. That's why I'm building it myself. There are a lot of applications that are fine to listen to for like super short text (a few sentences), but for any long-form prose it gets intolerable IMO. And that's from someone who has listened to lots of intolerable audio from my own system.

EDIT: I'll also add that although there are *many* TTS apps, the true diversity is far less because most of these services are using Amazon Polly, Azure, or GCP's equivalents.
> It’s so hard to eat healthy, I honestly cannot fathom how people do it.

Learn to cook well so that eating out would result in lower quality meals compared to what you could make yourself.

Once you're controlling what goes into your meals, instead of outsourcing it, that makes it easier to control portion sizes, how much fat/oils go into things (I've found that restaurant dishes have an absurd amount of fat in them even when eating at "good" places), how things are sweetened, what you can use as healthier substitutes and what not.

You can eliminate almost all sugars with low to zero calorie substitutes, you can replace bread/panko/etc with low-carb flours, if you're frying you don't need more than a teaspoon of cooking oil, many sauces you can learn to make yourself instead of buying corn syrup and soybean oil-laden sauces from stores, etc.

Make it a rule to not buy things that come in boxes, buy fresh or flash frozen ingredients and make things from scratch. Stay in the produce, meat and fish sections of the store and ignore everything else outside of things like spices, frozen vegetables and protein.

Give yourself some leeway, too. You don't want to go into an all-or-nothing mindset, because that might lead you to giving up on eating healthily altogether if you break your diet. If you can find a way to treat yourself with something healthy that you like, that would be great. Sometimes I crave pancakes, despite them being nearly 100% carbohydrates. I eventually ended up with a recipe that substitutes wheat flour with almond and coconut flour, and to replace the syrup, a berry sauce reduction sweetened with erythritol. Barely any carbohydrates and the berry sauce is better than maple syrup, IMO, and goes with a lot of different meals.

tldr: reduce the opportunities to eat unhealthily, and increase the opportunities to eat healthily, even if you don't take those opportunities all of the time.
So the home is southern facing and was full of windows on the southern side. So even with windows open/shades down the heat from the sun would still radiate in.

When I bought the home I had a company come to help me plan the heating and I don't fully understand the science but the home is built to keep heat in with the windows and no attic.

> There are zero openings. How does this prove it’s not shutdown?

Since when does having zero openings mean that a team is shut down? Sometimes teams are staffed enough to not need more people at the moment, so they will post a job opening whenever there is a need for it.

A specific personal example: my org had a period of a couple of months with no openings in late second half of last year, simply because we didn't need more people at the time, and then we posted more openings later. We were nowhere close to being shut down.
In Uruguay and other spanish-speaking countries those were called "mecanos" (which, judging by other local customs such as calling sneakers "championes" and bubblegum "chicles" was probably a trade name)

"When I called Apple support they said that there is nothing they can do to reverse the charges, and my only option would be contacting my bank and reporting them as fraud."

So Apple, who is the one charging the credit card, claims to not be able to do a refund, and then suggests to report it as fraud. What I’m curious to know is how would Apple then react to the chargeback - my guess: they’d lock the user out of their iCloud account, claiming fraud or abuse.
Being the only person eating can feel weird, but if I'm one person among a group I don't feel strange not eating and I've never picked up that it was strange for anyone else. Sometimes I don't feel like eating, and I don't force myself.
It’s either useful or it isn’t. Comparing AI to either human intelligence or rules-based computing tools is incoherent. Fucking stop it! What we are really talking about are the pros and cons of experiential, tacit knowledge. Humans can do this. Humans can also compute sums. Computers are really good at computing sums. It turns out they can work with experiential knowledge as well. Whodathunk.

What we should be saying is this: there will always be benefits of experiential knowledge and there will always be faults with experiential knowledge, regardless of man vs. machine.

It goes both ways. If you planned so poorly and hired so fast that a minor perturbation in the market causes you to fire 17,000 people, you're still communicating that you putting profits above people.
I can recommend NutritionFacts.org.

I applaud that self knowledge.

It's always hard to know others' experiences. I have a friend who genuinely tried to help me lose weight in college with the typical advice and a lot of support: he had the strategy of just eating until he was full and then stopping, and he just couldn't get why that didn't work for me. But when he hit his 30s, he suddenly started ballooning up and suddenly couldn't put his strategy into practice, to his great frustration. Did his willpower dry up overnight? Nope; something else changed to upregulate his appetite.

(I pointed him to semaglutide, and he's already halfway to returning to his college weight.)
I'd gladly pay more if it meant everybody in America could be homeowners (if they actually wanted to, and put in effort i.e. 9-5 at a FACTORY job for 40 years, to retire w/ a decent pension, and the works), you know like 90% of baby boomers had, but current generations do not have. We're already at a point where nobody will own anything anymore, everything is rented. Owning a home is out of reach unless you make over 200k.

The main job of prisons is enhancing public safety. Firstly by holding dangerous

government should not take a view towards what books would be very likely to do more harm than good. If you don't accept this why not? And if you do, what better criterion than "moral outrage" do you propose? Keeping people you want to re-integrate into society away from what most of society would see as morally outrageous does not strike me as a priori unsound. Maybe violent Neonazis are easier to re-integrate if they don't read Mein Kampf whilst in prison?
It doesn’t reason or compute or understand anything. All it does is pick which series of words or symbols is most likely, given all the examples it was trained on, the prompt it was given, and the words it has already picked. Since it was trained on every piece of text the authors could get their hands on (every book, every webpage, every reddit post, everything), it does a surprisingly good job of reproducing natural language. But since there’s no mind behind it, it cannot recognize truth from fiction, or know when it has made a mistake. It will simply mimic the form of successful writing even when the answers it produces are completely made up.
And network, network, network!
I'm also one of those people who finds it more convenient to eat 1 meal per day when busy. It also started in my early 20s, but I've never been on stimulants. I got in the habit of eating irregularly in grad school which made it even easier to continue. I rarely have any appetite within an hour of waking up, and ive almost never eaten during this window. Not clear to me which is the cause vs effect.

I know some people who are on the opposite end and have problems functioning after missing lunch. None of them have ever intentionally fasted, though again it's hard to separate cause from effect.

What is clear is that different people's bodies form very different expectations surrounding food intake, and we are mostly unaware of this collectively.
Katie Hopkins: Climate lockdowns, controlling opposition levers of power [video]
"A book a week" is more or less my annual goal (that I meet sometimes and don't meet sometimes). The issue isn't that. That's a good goal. The issue is regimenting it and saying "we start the new book on Sunday and finish by the following Saturday" (which is more or less what Lex says). That part is weird and ruins the whole thing, because you can no longer take advantage of averages and assume things will mostly work out. It seems that he's relaxed that in the blog post now, but that's what he started out saying (https://archive.is/MxKIt), and it was stupid.

Common advice does address this. A lot of dieting has been, in my experience, finding ways to make less food make me fuller, or to think less about being full. For example, intermittent fasting is a great way to do both.
