I tried it for a few months and overall I was fine with it after I got used to it. I finally had to call it quits when I couldn't figure out how to stop the file browser from scrolling to my active file or the open files tab bar from scrolling the current open file into view if my mouse left the tab bar for even a millisecond.

I want both those scrollable areas to not automatically move on me. I think there is now a way to disable that functionality but I haven't gone back to try.

I just watched Gremlins with my kids during the holidays. My older teen had to look away and hated it (they can’t do horror films), my other teen was abhorred by all the death, and my pre-teen had the full range of emotions from cracking up often and jumping at the surprises.

With that said, I was surprised to see how decisive, resourceful, and adaptable the mother was. Hears a noise in the attic, grabs a knife. Gets attacked, puts creature in nearest blender/microwave and hits switch. Hears another noise, grabs two knives because one wasn’t enough last time.
I knew a person who this wouldn't deter them. We were sort of friends through a common industry, and I talked to him once in a blue moon. Gave them some money after they posted a real bad sob story on FB during the pandemic and not even a week later they asked for more (a lot more).

Kept asking me for money for some new reason every time I popped onto Facebook via Messenger until I stopped updating my active status. A bit later they deleted that profile and created a new one, and I decided not to become friends with him again.

Looking the guy up, and he was always posting GoFundMe's for some cause or family illness or another, and you'd see links to people in the industry asking for things on his behalf periodically across various websites, going back more than a decade.

I do believe he dug himself into a deep hole and he was in a hard place, but I also believe he's willing to take advantage of anyone as much and as often as possible until he can't get anything more from them, then moves on to the next person (well, probably multiple people at the same time).

So anyway, that's too fresh in my head, and I'm hesitant to give anyone money for anything right now. I've got plenty of crap going on for the forseeable future that needs a bunch of money anyway (implants, roof replacement, flooded basement, etc).

Can you quantify this?

And, how does it compare to say water heaters and other sources of indoor gas use?

My understanding is that it’s a negligible concern. So I’d love actual numbers if you have them or know where I can find them.
yes you can. Because it will likely be decades before the environment kills people but you can save a life today. Oh, don't drive that ambulance to go pick someone up and rescue them, it pollutes! Where as other solutions may exist for the environment in the future.

Here's another. Maybe no one should go hiking/camping/mountain climbing because the few that need to be rescued generally require cars/helicopters the burn fossil fuels to come to their aid, not to mention all the fossil fuels used to get them to their camp/hike/climb site and all the materials for their gear, all for "entertainment".

Also, you yourself are likely a net negative on the environment. Do you have an obligation to kill yourself?
Ugh... This touched a nerve. Surely, if you have a semi-unlimited amount of money (way-way more than will ever be asked from you), it's easy just to loan and forget.

I think it's a much harder game for the rest of us.

Also, it has a built-in assumption that people will self-limit what they are asking. I learned the unpleasant way that people don't. At some point in my life, I had a friend who was constantly asking for smallish amounts and conveniently forgetting to return them. Each ask for definitely in the category that I didn't care whether it was returned or not, but if you accumulate all of them, it was an amount big enough to care. After numerous unpleasant interactions with the money subject, I just decided to stop this practice.

That being said, I feel like it's critical to not become too thick-skinned. Sometimes people do need help and they are truly in a bad place and dismissing their ask just based on some other problematic person is not good.

(I'm not a tax advisor... just reading the IRS website.) The annual limit for gifts from one individual to another is $17,000 for 2023. Even so, nothing kicks in until you cumulatively gift enough to cover the "Basic Exclusion Amount" is reached, which is currently north of $10 million.

Further, that tax is payed by the donor, not the recipient.

In other words, the IRS won't care if you can't pay rent and somebody gifts you $1000.
This is a really silly take. Parent post didn't say YOU WILL DIE IF YOU EVER GET SHOCKED, FULL STOP.

They said that you can die if you're shocked. If you have a substantial chance of death doing something it's common sense to avoid that thing, especially when it's trivial to do so. If you want to be a manly man who don't need no safety, go for it, but you're setting up a straw man in OP's post and safety awareness in general that isn't there.

The story is basically making medical claims without actual medical facts to back them up. Implying there's causation without actual medical studies seems very reckless and dangerous.

As far as I know anyone can ask to have stuff taken down. I'm also not sure what the protocol should be? Should sensationalized medical information that isn't proven to be accurate be allowed spread around to anyone that's only qualification it the ability to click?

On the other hand there are real whistle blowers and contrarian view points that need to be raised and or addressed for most issues.

The movie was set in (pre)wartime, when nations were fighting to the death. Violence was the backdrop.

It was remarkable for the human moments, devoid of 'empty and abrasive action' and full of personal drama. Dismissing that is disingenuous.

I got my introduction to Maya in 1998 at around version 2 if memory serves me right. While it is true that it shipped with some polygon tools they were quite basic and quite subpar when compared to other DCC tools available at the time.
I remember when the "edge loop" tool was finally introduced after it had been on 3D Studio Max for ages.
The silver lining was MEL which technical artists could use to code up their own tools . This is probably what Naughty Dog ended up doing in the example you provided. Those guys truly broke a lot of new ground with the severe limitations of the tech at the time.
The one thing I didn't see a setting for is what the default windows to show are. For example, I would always like to have the tests window in a tab versus having to tell it to show first. It's a minor thing, but people like personalizing to their workflow.

> > So, I personally don’t really get the pushback.

> Right, you don't. So don't rag on those who do. This new UI is terrible for my workflow.

In my experience, when people say, "I don't get" something, what they usually mean is, "I don't want to get" that something. The author does not want to understand why people are pushing back; they just want people to stop pushing back.

Note that I include myself in "people." I have done this myself and recognized it upon reflection (not with the JetBrains UI, but in other situations).
My unsolicited opinion: I like it, I especially like the new dark theme, but I can't use it full time until some features in the old UI make it to the new one (vertical splitting tool windows, primarily).

> Until recently, everyone's address were printed in a big book that was sent to every household for free. I lived for years in a country where the government published everyone's address online and never experienced or heard about any issues.

Back in those days you had to turn up in person to do things like open a bank account, pay a cheque into your bank account, draw money from a bank account, etc. You probably used the same bank (my first bank account only allowed me to draw money from a specific branch, during work hours, and only up to a set limit each month). The bank staff probably knew who you were on sight.

I'm not saying your address should be secret - I agree with you that this is probably OK. I'm saying the attack surface for identity theft is so much larger now that we should probably be more careful than we were.
As an audience member, you’re expected to maintain some suspension of disbelief. At a musical no one would say, “no one would actual sing what they could just say!”, or reading a book “those letters could have been scrawled by any kindergartener!”

At that point of the movie the thing the protagonists thought they killed is resurrected in an even more frightening form and dread is elevated. Obviously the viewer is not at risk, so how that is implemented has little bearing on the impact of the scene.

On the other hand, if you are interested in the technical details of how this creature appears next to actors, knowing Cameron’s history in the model department on low budget movies and Ray Harryhausen’s similar technique used in Jason and the argonauts would allow you to appreciate how it was made.

I don’t buy that the late reveal was due to effects limitations. It’s really to take an audience that may have allowed themselves to relax to be immediate brought back to an even higher anxiety level than the proceeding chase.
Private gifts are not taxed until it is over $12 million dollars (the estate tax limit).

The IRS does require you to report it if it goes over $16k from one individual to another. This is solely to keep track of that $12M lifetime gift limit.

Totally reasonable IMO unless you don't believe in inheritance taxes at all.

so you could do $48k from a couple to their child and child's spouse.
The 15A limit in the circuit breaker is there to protect the wires, not you. 15A at 110V passing through your body will cause massive damage and literally cook you after stopping your heart if it's in the way.

Modern circuit breakers and outlets have GFCI/AFCI electronics that detect abnormal current leaks to ground and abnormal waveforms, and shut off the circuit. These actually stand a chance of saving you in a scenario like this.
Fascinating. The summary:

“On the one hand, according to the (generalized) standard canonical interpretation, the arrival distribution is considered as a generalized observable, which is described by a positive-operator-valued measure (POVM), satisfying some required symmetries [10, 11, 30, 31]. On the other hand, in the realistic- trajectory-based formulations of quantum theory, such as the Bohmian mechanics [32], Nelson stochastic mechanics [33], and many interacting worlds interpretation [34], the arrival time distribution could be obtained from particles trajectories [7, 18, 35, 36].”

I’d be interested to hear a definition of each of those interpretations.
Depending under what conditions the jobs disappear. When it's due to technological advancement everyone benefits because things like cell phones save people time from waiting for an important call at a specific place.

Compare it to when jobs disappear because of a disaster natural or man-made block ports and the factories cannot get the materials to manufacture important components to keep the power grid stable. Everyone loses.

Usually, yes.

I lent about $25 to someone when I was in college. It was a lot of money for me at the time, you could buy 5 day's worth of food with it or pay 1/5th of the rent for my room (yeah, some places in Europe were really cheap in the aughts). He promised that he would pay me back.

After a while he asked me for some more money, about $5 and swore he'd pay back really soon. I was so shocked that I broke all contact with that guy and never saw him again.

… which version did you watch?

And yep, it’s adapted from a a book!
Why not? I've borrowed thousands of dollars from family at times, lent thousands of dollars to them at others, and we've always repaid each other eventually.

It's normal to forgive a loan to family if circumstances change, or to give money no-strings-attached if they need it, but it's equally normal to loan money to help with cash flow problems and then expect repayment eventually.
The reality is that the world is full of shitty people. There is an easy way to find the majority of them. They ask/want to borrow money from non official lenders.

Think about it. Most people on HN how many paths would you have to go down first before you would borrow money from an individual? I'm guessing several options would be tried first.

The reason those people are shitty is they already burnt all those options and have now moved onto individuals to grift in small ways.

The number of people that truly need help from a single person in the form of money is exceedingly rare. This is not limited to any specific place.

Yes I'm aware people can be in different/difficult places in life that make such need more likely, I'm just speaking as a general rule. Usually people that really need help are hesitant to even ask.
There are alternatives:

Wait, do people consider VS Code's UI good? I only use it because it's less-minimal (in the UI department) than Sublime, and free.
It would be so nice to be able to just type "git discard my last commit that I havent pushed yet"
The risk of them not being able to pay you back and thus destroying the friendship is so high that I wouldn’t recommend this unless you are ok with losing that person as a friend OR you just give them the money without expectation of it being paid back.
That doesn't sound right

The per year limit for 2023 is 17,000. A 11M lifetime limit would mean 647 years of giving.

I think the 11M figure is just totally way off. Not sure where they are getting that from.
Yes, this is very true. The same in Poland. Now it's dog-eat-dog. The difference is night and day and obviously there are many gains but also there are some remarkable losses and this is one of them.
> I go through life wondering if I borrowed $20 from someone and forgot to pay them back for months

Same. I sometimes ask my friends to tell me if they think I owe them anything. I try to keep things in mind, but I much prefer to hear if I forgot something than let the relationship detoriate.
Hah, I came up with the same thing for https://fivethreeone.app/calculator .

The reason I did the compression (using pako as well) was that without it the URL was too long to show a preview on iMessage. I also compress the state manually myself which saved a bunch of bytes too.
Gross, yep. And since I'm using a VPN I'm thrown into the "give them the most painful captchas just to be sure" bucket.
This is the right answer here. The solution works until it doesn’t. Browser URLs are limited in real life. So when the state grows it will break sooner or later. Of course it depends on the usecase.
I know someone who spent her twenties as an ocean lifeguard, including the real Baywatch, LA County Fire Department lifeguards. That's competitive to get in, and she's one of the few women to qualify. 6 feet tall, blonde, and muscular. Country girl who grew up on ten acres in Northern California. She spent years rescuing people who did stupid stuff. During the off-season for the beach she did off-road vehicle rescues. (Not the vehicle, just the driver.) She's surfed Fiji and New Zealand, and bicycled from Portugal to Italy alone. She's done endurance riding (horses) in Death Valley, and has ridden the Tevis 100 mile ride through the Sierras twice. Both she and the horses came back unharmed.

She's a cautious person. She prepares and trains hard for everything she does. She qualified as an emergency medical technician (that gets you a big pay boost with LA county lifeguards). She's totally anti-drug. She comes across as a laid-back surfer girl, very relaxed, and doesn't seem competitive or too serious. She is, but it doesn't show.

That's how you do it and not get yourself killed.
If your goal is to avoid Google using your data, putting in bad data that is filtered out accomplishes that, right?

I don't personally have an opinion on HN using the captcha, but their reasoning is pretty obvious, and almost certainly comes from a good place (reducing any spam on the site). That said, you're welcome to your opinions, it just seems like you have an option, based on your stated goal.

The gaps in T2's time loop are pretty alarming in retrospect. Killer robots suddenly materialize in the present, time traveling from a future that never comes about. It's quite a spooky thought. In my opinion the film only gets away with it by riding the coattails of how cleanly T1 executed the time travel concept.
Considering the articles and general sentiment we have towards Google and AI training, if this is true HN failed to read the room.
