Yeah the numbers he posted were also base from JS and Citadel websites, so they're not reflective of how much one could (or even guaranteed will with the early career bonus floors) actually make at those places.

This is for traders and researchers though. You can get pretty similar early career salary + bonus as a SWE at JS or Citadel, which is probably what more people on HN would be considering. Do you know what kind of pay the smaller shops offer for pure SWE?

That's the thing though, a it's not uncommon for ML-generated images have major elements that are almost 1:1 copies of existing pieces, especially if the prompt includes an artist's name or a style that's closely tied to a particular artist, going well beyond an artist using existing pieces for reference/inspiration.

Ask HN: How to restore cognition after years of trauma? I feel slow and dumb
From impaired long-term and working memory, clarity of thought, mental agility, to executive function, it feels like the depression and anxiety caused by trauma have completely blunted my mind to a debilitating degree. Acquiring, integrating, and productively applying information is an enormous challenge. In meetings, I feel like a mental sloth. I've tried a variety of antidepressants, psychedelics, and supplements, to no avail. Talk therapy has done little.

Has anyone been able to cognitively recover?
I see where you're coming from, but if you go to the extreme and anyone could have a private room for $1 a month, would anyone be living on the streets?

That's one way to frame the issue, but the other side of it would be that they want moderation to be more inclusive so as not to further other somewhat less than half the population and worsen the political divide.

It isn't neutral in either direction, of course, and is part of a growing push-back against the sort of ideology that rejects all names for and criticism of itself.
Yes. Lets see if I can make an ASCII rendition that renders correctly. `-` is level floor, `v` is a down stair, `x` is an up/down stair and `^` is an up stair. The simplest possible stair connection between layers is a down stair above with an up stair below:

---v---
---^---

To make a very tall staircase, you can either stack pairs of stairs next to each other (this approach actually has some gameplay benefits, but isn't usually necessary):

---v-----
---^v----
----^v---
-----^---

Or, you can use up/down stairs, which are a single block that acts as both an up and a down stair:

---v---
---x---
---x---
---^---

In the ASCII game, you had to place all of these manually, so you were in full control. In the new Steam game, it's my understanding that you just select the top and bottom layers for your staircase and it automatically builds the "right" stair types for you. The problem I have seen reported is that sometimes it will erroneously designate something like this:

---v---
---v---
---x---
---^---

This staircase does not allow dwarves to transit from layer 2 up to layer 1, and permanently removes material, meaning it's not possible to completely fix the mistake.

In terms of minimum requirements, you could even run that on a 0 or older.

In practice, you probably want at least 3b+ for reasonable performance. If you're buying new anyway and can get them for MSRP I don't see why you wouldn't get a 4.
I have owned an oven, toaster, toaster oven, air fryer, dehydrator, deep fryer, microwave oven. Air fryers use a fan to circulate the heat. While a toaster/convection oven typically use radiant heat. Upside to air fryer is the speed. Downside is it will tend to cause fats to render out quickly making the food more on the dry side. Some foods/diets are suited to that style of cooking.

Growing up my parents almost exclusively used a pot shaped one with the fan/heater in the lid, to make roast chickens. The skin usually came out nice and crunchy and spicy. It would be tougher to get that same effect in a toaster oven or oven. They also tend to heat more evenly so for reheating they cook better than a microwave. But can not beat a microwave on speed.

Think of each of these as tool to get things done. Each one can mostly do what the others can. But some tools are better suited to cooking styles than others.
Do you roll with the roller horizontally aligned or vertically? Although I really like the idea of cracking my back into line I worry about the shear forces generated on each vertebra while rolling with it horizontal. On the lower back, specifically, where there aren't ribs to spread the load.
It's always heartwarming to see people passionately geek out, seeking to advance our civilization. It's also curious that a land of geeks like the US would have a culture of looking down upon geeks, to the point that Paul Graham would write essays like Why Nerds Are Unpopular[1]. I couldn't even understand that essay when reading it for the first time, as it was a novel concept in my country that people didn't appreciate hardworking and passion in hard subjects. It's even stranger that Americans thought it was a great virtual to toil in sports, like shooting hoops thousands of times a day, but it was a sin to toil in STEM, like solving maths problems for fun. But well, it's a topic for another day.

[1] http://www.paulgraham.com/nerds.html. Quote: "I know a lot of people who were nerds in school, and they all tell the same story: there is a strong correlation between being smart and being a nerd, and an even stronger inverse correlation between being a nerd and being popular. Being smart seems to make you unpopular."

Striped locking is where you chunk sections of data behind the same lock to improve scalability. So, 1 lock might protect 1,000 items in an array, for example.

Haha yea FinTech would be a pretty derogotory term to call a HFT firm
Imagine you're a municipality like San Francisco. You control all of the zoning regulations, and many of the permitting requirements. You have a AA+ credit rating, and even in today's higher rate environment, you can borrow billions of dollars at 6%.

You already own oodles of land. You can build to whatever height you want within reason, because you control the zoning, and you even control many of the ordinances that allow citizens to block development (though certainly not all, like CEQA and NEPA). So you have lots of lands to build on, and what you build is largely in your control.

Construction costs in San Francisco are sky-high, at $440 sq ft. But people will happily pay you $40/sq foot per year for housing, probably for 75 years.

How is this not the easiest decision in the world?

Create a housing development agency, become a permanent developer, and landlord. Never stop building. Put proper incentives in place, so that employees at the agency can partake in the profits, incentivizing them to be efficient. Never stop doing this.

You might not be great at this at first, but fifty years later you will be.

Games of that era tended to hit the hardware directly for I/O, meaning that there is no firmware that can enforce any such thing. AFAIK the Game Boy boot ROM just verifies the Nintendo logo data, plays the chime, then boots the game, and after the game boots, the boot ROM completely disappears from the memory map.
This only works if you apply backward compatible changes all the time. Sometimes you do want to make incompatible changes in your implementation. Database tables are an implementation detail, not an API which you're trying to expose as a view, etc.

It's just not a microservice by definition.
I wouldn't say that C++ templates use monomorphization, because there are no polymorphic functions to begin with. Monomorphization, as in "the standard FPL technique", comes after type checking. C++ template specialization precedes type checking.

Of course one can redefine the meaning of "polymorphism" and "monomorphization" to fit C++, but then these words lose nearly all meaning.
> This article seems to argue (and some comments here) that being rude should be normal? Why? Why wouldn't we be nice to customers for their business?

The difference is intent. Being polite to someone to put them at ease in a difficult situation, to give them a better experience of their day, or to lubricate an awkward interaction, is a good thing. Relentlessly and deceptively framing yourself and your actions in the highest possible light is selfish and corrosive. There is overlap, such as greeting somebody in a cheery way as they enter a business. But where there is overlap, the selfish intention corrodes the positive one. When somebody greets me as I enter a store, I can't help seeing them as a worker who is forced to perform emotional labor on behalf of a business that wants to extract maximum economic value from me. It doesn't feel personal.

Likewise, when a customer service rep on the phone expresses positivity and a desire to help, I'm aware that they may be instructed and empowered to solve customer problems as well as possible, but they also may be following a script to guide me towards the cheapest outcome for the company, and their apparent compassion and helpfulness might be calculated to engender feelings of trust in me, so that I feel like I'm in good hands and allow them to guide me towards an outcome that is less than I'm entitled to. Their tone may even be being graded and used to evaluate them.

I had both a De'Longhi FH1363 MultiFry Extra and a T-fal ActiFry.

You can throw in frozen vegetables, meat and seasoning, turn the machine on, come back in 25 minutes and your food will be cooked uniformly to perfection. E.g., frozen brussels sprouts, chopped chicken sausages, a bit of olive oil and sambal sauce.

Prep time under 30 seconds.

Bonus points: Both fryers come with dishwasher-safe paddle and bowl. You can detach and wash the lid too of the De'Longhi one.
We bought a dog stroller, which helps for when he stops wanting to walk, or is too bad, but it's a pain to take when he does go the whole way (it's a cheap one that has many design flaws). I kind of wish I got the backpack, but I think he would have hated it and made it unusable.
It's a bit different, in that property rights are (at least in part) around to incentivize production of the property.

Having an affordable base layer is a big win.
> I think that is debatable.

It's not. Saving the great salt lake requires a water consumption reduction larger than total urban consumption in Utah. You can't get 1.5 million acre-feet out of a box which contains half a million.

> A lot of urban water is wasted on lawns, pools, and parks. It is not unthinkable that it could be reduced by 25-50% per person if you banned these things.

That's literally pulled out of your ass with no supporting evidence, and even if it were true it'd still be nowhere near what's needed.

> That said, there is always the 2nd option of purchasing more water.

No there is not always the option of purchasing the thing everyone lacks.

Typically you can't reduce the number of essential blocks. But what you can do is make them easier to comprehend through divide and conquer. Build two smaller Jenga towers instead of one big. You will have to sacrifice something (e.g. performance) for stability and clarity.

Gotta be careful though. There's a religion that claims every 10-block Jenga tower should be built as 10 single-block towers.
I never said affordable housing. Just having more housing period would help at this point. However, that doesn't seem to be true in NYC when we incentivized it and we built a lot of affordable housing. Just not enough
It can, I think. The EEE concept is useful enough to go slightly outside its original intended use.
No, we have been ignoring your point because it’s one of those Econ 101 world views based on assumptions that have no basis in the real world and actual human behavior. You can’t look at the number of Airbnb rentals and conclude it’s not having a significant impact on the market simply based on the raw number of units. What we know from all systems theory is that a small portion of things has the majority of the effect. In this case, short term rentals are very likely setting the upper bounds of the pricing range.

This was technically the end of 2021, but I got a new gaming/workstation desktop. I have an RTX 3080 which I can make AI images with, as well as learn more about deep learning since I have a GPU handy. It also has 16 cores that come in very handy for compiling programs, I don't have to wait anymore. Along with that, I bought an LG OLED 48 inch TV that I use as a monitor, the screen space is amazing.

Along with that, I paid for a solo 401k service as well as an accountant that saved me enormous amounts of money. Did you know that you can save ~$62,000 per year per company you work for, tax free (or deferred)? I did not, until I looked into it. That along with all my business purchases allowed me to pay a mere ~3% in taxable income from my overall income in 2021. Insane.
Something that might not be clear. The calculator chips that the shipped game ran on were just too difficult to program, so the prototypes were done on a 6502 which was easy to program. The completed prototype was then used as a model for the calculator chip programmer.

The 6502 prototype still used the handheld set for the LEDs and buttons, and was connected to the 6502 SBC with a ribbon cable.

There's "covering risk", and there's tenant lock-in.

I have no problem with requiring a tenant to rent for a year, to prevent quick turnover and the risk and costs associated with that.

But multiple landlords now have all had the same policy: the lease will never go month-to-month, basically. You can, but e.g., for my current lease, it costs ~60% more to go month to month. This creates bizarre pay-off points, and greatly raises the costs of trying to move. When it's "+$2k/mo to go month-to-month", that's not risk-reduction, that's just greed, trying to make sure I can't move.

IME, it used to be that after you rented for a while (e.g., a year), the lease went month-to-month. You were a long-term stable renter, and you'd paid enough rent at that point to cover the overheads of finding a new tenant and making the necessary touch-ups to the apartment. (Beyond what was covered by security deposit.)

(I recently had this conversation with my parents recently. The previous generation has no idea about some of the provisions that renters of my generation are having to put up with.)

An average price of $18,000 to break lease on a 3+ year old lease is absurd. We need more housing, to drive competition in the rental & housing markets.

If I ever get to buy a house (… if my landlord doesn't first capture any gains I might get…) the first thing I'll have to do is not get to live in it: the most logical course of action would be to rent it short term, until I can get out of my own lease.

We actually do know that, proteins which control expression of other genes handle the morphology. There's a gene for a left side, for example.

But the relevant thing is, they control expression by binding to pieces of non-coding DNA, which can be considered "junk" by strict definitions. So most genes are prepended by a block of if-statements.
> written by [...] sponsored developers, and commercial developers who derive their revenue from elsewhere.

I believe this is the likely root of the problem. Commercial developers who don't personally use GNOME at home and only only work on it because it's their job. The incentive of these developers is to keep GNOME minimal from their own perspective as developers, to make their jobs easier. They don't really care about GNOME users (despite their contrary rhetoric) and neither does their employer (Red Hat, etc). Their employer funds this GNOME development because they still sell workstation licenses or support contracts to big corps and workstations need a GUI environment that's viable from the point of view of salesmen, CTOs, and contract lawyers (none of whom will be using it.) GNOMES's style of user-hostile minimalism satisfies all these corporate interests.
Thank you. I wish I could recall more details. I had no idea people were interested in these things. At the time we had no idea we were doing anything significant. For me it was a pleasant job that kept me in pocket money while a student.
Because it was all a scam and didn't need to polish details ?
I disagree. First, insincere polite speech greatly predates the existence of corporations, and second, it exists between parties who are on equal terms as often as between superior and subordinate. Consider the niceties of diplomats, for example. As I pointed out in my previous post, it actually serves a purpose for both parties.
> Anyway... I think Rome's limiting factor in germania and the european frontier was barbarism. NW europeans didn't have civilization: states, monarchies, temples, senates, roads, nations. The germans didn't even know they were germans until Romans told them. Rome's empire was based on assuming political control over existing political institutions.

I think you could get a job writing excuses for Roman emperors ;)

The Romans might have assimilated some sophisticated civilizations like Greece and Carthage, but outposts like Britannia were nothing like that, and Romans built their own roads and cities and villas to extract wealth from the land and set up their own institutions everywhere they went. Germany had no shortage of potential as a source of agricultural produce and slaves, but what made it uneconomical compared with other fringe parts is the pesky Germans kept fighting back, and in particular wiped out the three remaining legions in Germania after eight others sent there to pacify it had been withdrawn to stave off rebellions elsewhere. (They lost a legion to Boudica in Britain too, but they'd built roads and cities there by that time and had a different emperor calling the shots).
