There’s no need to be snide. Use your willpower to resist the urge to be provocative and have a discussion in good faith.

If you actually go into those citations you’ll find they aren’t very definitive about the malleability of impulse control, especially over the long term.

“Our findings suggest that self-control is potentially malleable and the practice of inhibiting impulses may help people lose weight, eat healthier and increase their physical activity,"

And I think you’re posting studies that extoll the virtue of discipline, which is nice but it doesn’t disprove willpower has a chemical and genetic basis. Some of these are just about children studying in school and having less willpower when one is tired or stressed. Most of them only provide generic and non profound advice.

Everyone I know in the trades "put in their dues" with at least 10 years of working for someone else, doing the shit jobs, working outside in the rain, in the mud, in the heat, in crawlspaces, in attics, etc.

The smart, driven ones learn all they can, advance, build relationships and reputation, and start their own businesses. The lazy or dumb ones continue to do the crap jobs for their entire career.

Idk why but why are people getting mad at stuff that literally affects every other type of services online (like the chance of it shutting down)?

20$/year also doesnt sound all that expensive, thats 1.6$ per month! I rarely ever pay for things online, but I know damn well that anyone who pays for this service and then not use it would probably forget that they are paying because its so cheap!

You definitely are rated at Microsoft on “Impact” annually, and this has an impact on your compensation.
I did that once. I wanted to go for a run, and I also wanted to buy some soup spoons from Ikea. So I ran to Ikea (about 4km away), and had to walk through the store all smelly and sweaty. It felt inconsiderate to the people around me. Then I ran home holding the spoons. Running while holding things is awkward. So there's two reasons. I haven't done that sort of thing since.

You can move a custom domain easily enough. I am about to do that to move away for the GSuite’s fees. Worst case, I’ll invest into running a service on my own. Best case, I’ll just use Proton or FastMail, etc.

What did eggs ever do to you? I will see myself out :)

I drove a friends plaid. I would buy one on the spot if it had more physical controls and a round steering wheel. The performance of them is just so fun for daily driving and the range is amazing too. Ahh well, Elon gonna Elon.
You've only repeated the assertion that anyone who has any objection to nuclear is irrational and refused to substantiate it. And this in response to my comment specifically outlining why even technically uneducated objections to the industry are actually wholly rational and evidence based, just not on evidence you like. You then followed your initial insult with further insults, and repeatedly attempted to deflect from my main point which was a rebuttal to yours by claiming I didn't understand it.

As pvg won't permit a reply to his/her/its post, I'll reply to myself:

This is very obviously untrue. Almost every single thread in HN is littered with repetitive comments. Try posting anything about Linux, note-taking. Dare mention an Electron app, and if it's installed with an install.sh, then .. instant death. You'll be buried under an avalanche of near exact copies of comments that have been posted tens of thousands of times on HN.

This is manifest bad faith on the part of the mods in general or pvg in particular: an individual dislike on their part of this particular repetitive complaint, which prompted a vague guideline with plausible deniability in mind.

These aren't the kind of judiciously-applied guidelines I could willingly sign up to. Unfortunately we're not permitted to delete accounts here, so I'll remove my email address, log out, and stay out of the comments.
You get a surprising amount of functionality for $20. I just got an account and I've been poking around for about an hour. I'm seriously impressed. You get:

- a webpage

- DNS

- email forwarding

- a statuslog

- url shortener

- a pastebin

- a weblog

- an optional Mastodon account

- optional IRC/Discord

- and probably some more stuff I missed

And all of this stuff is much more configurable than it would typically be on other services. It is ripe for creative integrations. Oh and the whole thing can be interacted with through an API. Pretty cool for $20. Definitely not the same as "just getting your own domain."

I agree. History is full of examples of autocratic dictators who have been overthrown by their own citizens, despite having total control of everything. Why should we expect this not to be the eventual fate of “dystopian future immortal billionaires” who merely have a monopoly on wealth.

Granted, this is one anecdotal case. But when spending over 100K on a car, features like this should be bullet-proof.

Actually ... scratch that. Features like this should be bullet-proof because they have been a solved problem for ~50+ years. Tesla is sacrificing safety for minimal cost savings and/or style points.

I was wondering about that too. I guess I have to say no. If the battery explodes if it's charged above 4.2V and the current voltage is 4.2V, then I guess you shouldn't try to put any more energy into the battery.

I don't have an electric car but my understanding is that you don't actually charge them to full (it says 100% but the battery can safely accept more charge). Maybe they would do something similar here. But yeah, I don't really know. What happens if you have an electric car and live on the top of the mountain and the first 10 minutes of your grocery store involves trading elevation for battery charge? Does your car fail sooner than the person that lives at the bottom of a hill and expends most of their energy in the first 10 minutes? No idea.
> depending on the area that could mean unemployment

This is the key reason why for most jobs, small town America is flyover country, an economically inefficient, exploitative, broken system. Without a large labor & employment market within easy commuting distance, your skills aren't portable if you get fired, and your boss can't readily find a replacement, so most employment relationships end up in a reluctant, often abusive state from one or the other.
Comments Section

In Next Generation Shell I've experimented by adding

section "arbitrary comment" {
code here
}

and this is staying in the language. It looks good. That's instead of

# blah section - start
code here
# blah section - end

Later, since NGS knows about sections, I can potentially add section info to stack traces (also maybe logging and debugging messages). At the moment, it's just an aesthetic comments and (I think) easily skip-able code section when reading.

Symbols

I've decided not to have symbols in NGS. My opinion (I assume not popular) is that all symbols together is one big enum, instead of having multiple enums which would convey which values are acceptable at each point.
If the change causes the scheduler to put it on the cache heavy cores but it turns out the program runs better on the clock heavy cores then this will cause your benchmark to report things are better than ever when the change really did make it perform worse. If pinning really is the best way to get the application to perform well and you want to implement that then the application or environment should be doing the pinning so the benchmark runner can report what's actually happening not what could happen.

Regardless though if you want reliable numbers, even on a CPU with uniform cores, you should be doing multiple runs and comparing average and variance. This will always tell the actual story regardless how the platform underneath behaves that day.

Do you feel like you’re happy with your model s given the issues/compromises of the yoke you mentioned above?

The industry wide reduction of real buttons/switches and gauges is something that gives me pause on my next car purchase. I was initially thinking of getting a golf r but the infotainment and steering wheel capacitive buttons are almost universally criticized as really bad and there not being any real way to fix it.

When I saw the yoke I thought it was a concept car and they would come to their senses and use a wheel for production.

My wish list for an electric car:
1) be a dumb car. Minimal screens/animations/annoyances
2) if you do OTA updates I want to be able to reject a version and or revert to any version from any other version of the system software
3) don’t track me or show me ads
4) no feature on the car should require additional or recurring payments to use with very limited exceptions (thinking navigation updates etc) specifically don’t disable something on my car because I don’t pay future moneys for its use.
5) I’m fine with fast but I would rather have a reasonably quick car that pushes 400miles of range without needing a 200kwh battery. I get that big motors also help make big regenerative power but I would like a car that has similar performance to say an Audi s4 or bmw 340m but electric.
6) simple is fine but the model 3 is oversimplified. they really can’t put simple gauges in front of the driver? I feel like every feature of most teslas is built for this looming full self driving where some of these features make more sense. I think the odds today are pretty good that someone who takes delivery today of a new Tesla will send it to the junkyard before fsd really fully self drives.
7) don’t try to drive for me and allow tweaking of things like brake /steering feel, suspension settings.

Yeah symbols are terrible and they lead to using Mashes or "Hashes with indifferent access" to attempt to allow both syntax. This helps with round tripping to JSON and back and getting consistent access either way, but values are still not converted. And values shouldn't be symbolized from JSON which means round tripping through JSON typically converts symbols into strings.

It would be a lot easier if symbols had been just syntactic sugar for immutable frozen strings so that :foo == "foo".freeze == "foo" would be true.

And under the covers these days there is very little difference. It used to be that symbols were immutable and not garbage collected and fast. And that strings were mutable and garbage collected and slow.

These days symbols are immutable and garbage collected and fast and frozen strings are immutable and garbage collected and fast (and short mutable strings are even pretty fast).

Symbols as a totally different universe from Strings I would consider to be an antipattern in language design. They should just be syntactic sugar for frozen strings if your language doesn't already have frozen strings by default.

Seems like there could be better technical solutions for the problem of impersonation (digital signature, etc.) as malicious actors could just make their own TTS without such noises.
I debated really hard between trading in my Y for an X so I could have a bigger car for my growing family. Decided to keep the Y because the X just didn't add enough space to make it worthwhile. Not to mention the unnecessary doors (roof storage is now impossible!), the yoke, and the twice as big price tag. Y is perfect for me other than I wish it was bigger.
It seems like a very nice service. It is great to hear that they are already around for quite some time.

And remember: if you’re not paying, you are the product. This seams both very reasonably priced and also priced high enough that if you take a little care at running things well it can be sustainable
SDF was an inspiration when I first found it. I think that it’s hard to capture what was so magical about it in a land of beige Windows boxes.

But what’s really amazing about it is that people still host things on there. And on top of that there are active message boards where people actually talk. It’s a weird little corner of the universe.

In a way I wish they had modernized a bit. But also I think if it turned into another PaaS system it would lose its charm. It is better off with the “weird” constraints that it has because it keeps it interesting.

Why not? Do you mean intentionally mean to be that linear with that line of thinking?

Keeping the platform running might be more of a tech endeavour than a business management skill.

Who knows, maybe tech people can learn business easier than business people can learn tech.

Still, some argue MBAs rarely have business experience. Others say they usually predict the next 5 years beard in the direction of the past 5.
Not immediately apparent, but as I said, going through their HN submissions and Twitter, it is apparent. Many upvotes and other replies to their comments in the past few months agree.
> I keep asking, over and over, for you to give examples of tradeoffs where the cost/benefit goes the other way, but you steadfastly refuse to elaborate.

You haven't, actually. But now that you finally have, I think the use of coal to generate electricity would be an example that goes the other way.

More generally, carbon taxes and similar measures, like the cap-and-trade systems used for other emissions, are IMO a good policy mechanism for controlling ecological costs according to cost-benefit tradeoffs. I don't think anyone is smart enough to centrally plan these kinds of economic decisions, so it's good to use these policies to make the market work for us in these instances.

> All you do is complain that I'm misunderstanding you, while never elaborating on your view.

When you keep misrepresenting what I've already said, I'm going to go back and try and clarify the points that you missed instead of moving on. If you're going to continue making the same misunderstandings, I'm going to get frustrated and give up.

> Ok, fine. Tradeoffs exists. Are you happy now? But that doesn't really get us anywhere or change anything in the argument.

You've spent the past three days disingenuously arguing against the point that tradeoffs exist. Now you've conceded the point. I'd say that's progress, and I'm going to leave it at that because I don't think you're engaging in good faith here, and I suspect that if we continue, you're just going to circle back to claiming that I was "concern trolling" about renewable energy again even though I've clarified that point more than once.
I would say the opposite is true. Brokenists see America as so broken it is not worth fixing and instead should be burned down and built anew. Status quoists see America as flawed but worthy of being fixed.

On the other hand, liberals and conservatives are basically the same these days. Since the only thing I hear from either of them is how the other is your enemy, trying to destroy your way of life, grooming your children, stripping your rights, policing your speech, etc.

To be clear, I am a liberal and do think conservatives are "worse" in this regard but you would have to be pretty willfully ignorant to not see the liberals doing the same.

Ruby having anonymous functions being defined like { |args| <whatever> } and for no arguments you can drop the || entirely. Rust's |args| { <whatever> } with || { <whatever> } being mandatory for no args removes the ambiguity in parsing.

The last I used Matlab, it also required you to assign your return value to a variable with the same name as the function. Presumably Gnu Octave also has the same feature.
Having a 5950X myself I am very impressed at its power efficiency. I've tweaked mine a fair bit (plus aggressive memory with manually adjusted timings) and it's been great. Up to 6-cores it can sit at 5GHz all day long (on air!), and for full core workloads with the aggressive memory it's basically on par with a stock CPU if it was 18.5 cores, and is silent in all but the goofiest long-running workloads. I'd kill for more PCIe lanes, but for a budget data processing workstation (40Gbps networking, GPU as a budget DPU), it's been great.

I believe the 7950X3D will have its voltage locked, but in terms of perf/W should still improve over the 5950X. And the 5950X's power efficiency is fantastic.

The Ryzen Pro processors are also fantastic. The 5750GE was a decent clocked 8-core that peaked out of the box at only around 39W, supports ECC and DASH, other nice features like Memory Guard, Shadow Stack, etc. Those are great in 1L form factors where you can build capable physical clusters where nodes can idle at only 9W total power draw.
yeah, I'm just worried that someone is going to avoid Amazon because they think their $120k startup job is less stressful

To be fair, the startup jobs I had weren't that stressful either. I was in a comfortable indoor environment with a nice computer and reasonable work-life balance. Way nicer jobs than working at a restaurant or something
never driven a tesla, but also steer by palming rather than hand over hand so can't people just do that?
Thank you for the suggestion and reply. But honestly if it's not my voice I don't know if I would want to use it. I considered writing stuff and hiring a vocalist but I'd have to write things for them. I feel I'd also have to do the same thing with a vocal synthesizer.

> I bet in a few years you could fine tune it on recordings of your own voice

Something to keep an eye out for though.
Sounds like a good approach to me. Buy for the best action your budget will allow. With VSTs you can tailor the sound to your liking. I don't have a stake in Pianoteq, but if you aren't aware they claim that version 8 is going to be brought to iOS soon.

If you use a decent quality open back headphone, I feel like this is even more true, because the onboard sound becomes irrelevant.

I think it's the opposite. I can't phantom that I would have learned programming at a young age if I didn't have a compiler telling me (with actionable steps, nowadays the search engine) that I'm wrong.

Teaching is a frustrating job where you have to make students repeat things over and over which makes students ashamed and the teachers bored, it's not like the movies where the students remember everything perfectly after a good explanation.

What is that an argument for?

The amount of technology developed by humans is highly skewed to the past couple hundred years. In that couple of hundred years, more people are starving today, right now, than there were people alive just a couple hundred years ago. One has to ask, why is that? I would argue that our technological explosion and industrialization are key components to this. For example, there's the idea that technological development feeds inequality.
