That statement/summary was published after another large scale study was published in the same journal. IIRC that Lancet study is also kind of complex in that the harms are different with age. So before 40 years or so, the risk of alcohol is due to things like car accidents, falls, fights, etc, and after age 40 it's things like cancer etc.

I think they even see the protective effect of light drinking on things like cardio outcomes in younger individuals, it's just outweighed by accidents etc.

Take what I'm saying with a grain of salt though because this is based on recent memory of from reading it before.

But if so, I think it changes the nature of the message a bit — although it's literally true there is no safe level of alcohol consumption in a population mortality risk sense, what that means is sort of complex and age-dependent, and might be something you can counteract, or might not.
slow down and understand my words. it's perfectly fine and moral to take advantage of the fact that someone else's seeds have blown onto your land, but that's not an argument you can sell to a court. so publicly making a separate legally stronger argument is normal and reasonable behaviour that doesn't lessen them whatsoever

selection bias is omnipresent which is why everyone is welcome to add facts to the discussion, as in the case in courts and the scientific method, so that scientists and juries can come to their own independent judgments rather than relying on an Ordained Authority. In science, if there is not consensus, we loop and add more facts until there is.

In some sense yes. However, everyone at any level benefits from a teacher/mentor/coach, if only to get some outside perspective.

The top tennis players, golfers, etc all have coaches. It doesn’t quite map to programming, but it shows no matter how good you are you can have something to learn from someone else.

Winning wars with air power alone is a very dangerous thing to do.

It puts success entirely in the hands of the best funded. You can simply simulate the war and arrive at the outcome.

So as a member of the “losing” side, how do you respond? You only have one choice to win: escalate. Escalate to terrorism, NBC weapons, etc.

Both sides have to bleed in a fair-ish fight to keep wars roughly conventional.
Very detailed! Thanks
Agree, though it’s not just that focusing that having relationship skills is a predictor of long term success in relationships, but that people that focus first on non-relationship skills tend to also have poor relationship skills.

Beyond that, main thesis is that relationships skills are largely shared between platonic and non-platonic relationships and that if there was a social network where 50% or more of relationships were based on platonic relationships, that there “relationship score” would be baked into evaluation for potential dates; basically, unless you had significant non-platonic relationship score, you would not be able to unlock dating on the platform and as result, it would be a friends first network; though to be clear, once dating was unlocked as result of achieving a meaningful “relationship score” users would be able to just go on dates.
Maybe not clone… but I have suffered in the past by not using competitors products. One of the easiest UI/UX steps you can do is use a bunch of products solving similar problems and see what you like and don’t like. It’s insane how often I see people asking for UX tips and people tell them to hire a designer.

I aged out of my career (I left Corporate at age 57). My experiences though in my 50's were that the younger, new-hires were not much interested in apprenticeship or any mentoring I might have to offer.

I get it. From their point of view I'm C, Objective-C, they're Swift.

Instead I spent my last years making sure the young engineers saw me arguing with upper management when I thought they were being short-sighted, calling out bullshit when I saw it. I hoped to leave them with a sense of their potential for self-actualization and a heightened responsibility for the product — not to just be passive go-fers.

I think they appreciated that more. The architectural mistakes they're going to have to make and learn from themselves.

Ex-gentoo user here. In one of my ancient laptops, amd64 from 2006 maybe, the default kernel that came with the bootstrap Gentoo did not handle well throttling CPU speed. It was always by default to the maximum available and, thus, after some time the laptop would switch off itself because of excess heat.

The only solution I found was to compile another kernel with the correct extensions loaded and put a big fan under the laptop during that process.

Anyway, the situation was really funny for my coworkers but I learnt a lot of things thanks to Gentoo.

Hold a balance in a foreign bank? File a FBAR (foreign bank account report). Move large sums of money? Be prepared to document the source of the funds. I'm now practiced at preparing bundles of PDFs that show a "paper" trail.

BTW, filing a FBAR requires you to report the maximum balance in an account, something that most definitely is not reported on a bank statement unless you hold the balance for more than a month. This is hardly ever the case in an active account.

Terms of service != licensing terms. The Docker repo terms of use seem talk about what it's "intended for" and is about support, suitability, security etc covering them against liability. Doesn't read like a license:

Yeah pandas seems to flaunt a lot of convention about not grouping lots of different control flow into a single function.

You are right — the return thing is very silly. What about this:

def greet(…, bow=False):
…
if bow:
take_a_bow()

Except imagine take_a_bow() instead as 10 lines of code to perform the post-greeting bow-ceremony. That code takes additional arguments regarding what kind of hand flourish to perform while bowing. The flourish_type has to be an optional argument to greet (because bow is) but inside the bow you have to assert flourish_type is not None because you can’t bow without knowing what flourish to give.

I’ve seen some dark stuff over the years.

Also: Welcome to HN!
I remember my freshman year of college in 1994 when I took C++ and asked the professor about how to write a GUI program. She told us about the Motif toolkit. I got a book from the library and typed in a hundred lines of boiler plate code just to make "Hello World" in Motif and C.

It then took about 5 minutes to compile on a DECstation 5000 with 32MB RAM running Ultrix.

Someone in the computer lab saw me with the Motif toolkit book and said "Why don't you use Tcl / Tk?" I said "What's that?" and they showed me. I had "Hello World" in 3 lines and could edit and start my new version in a couple of seconds instead of minutes to compile.

After I graduated I got a job in the semiconductor industry which ran on Solaris and HP-UX and now Linux. All our digital tools from Cadence and Synopsys started using Tcl as the built in scripting language. I ended up teaching my older coworkers how to program in Tcl. I was still writing Tcl yesterday. There are a lot of things I hate about it but it has stuck around.

The text before the interview mentions AFS which I did not think Ousterhout had anything to do with. I thought it was from Carnegie Mellon and then IBM Transarc. We used AFS at my school and I still miss it. Going to NFS in the industry seemed like a step backward.

We only had an 8MB quota for our entire Unix account in college. It was great when working on a group project that I could make a dir in my account for that project and then add the 3 other classmates login id's to the group dir ACL list.

These days at work depending on the size of the company we have to send an email to the sysadmin / devops team to say "Add user ABC to project group ID XYZ" and then wait hours or days. At my current job we can request Unix group access through a web site but I still think it is some human running commands to manually add users because it takes about 24 hours.
Brit here, upvoted for the giggle, but behind that I must admit we brits arguably have a serious (as in not at all funny) drug problem and that drug is alcohol.

Old phone batteries bloat up and become fire hazards. Ideally, phones could run permanentaly plugged in with the battery removed, but from my experience, they won't even power on without a battery present.
Adoption by WinDev, nobody else cares after they screwed their customers.

They should all have been fired if it was up to me, we don't pay VS licenses for killing our workflows like that.

WinRT is Windows only technology, who cares about extensions.

Yes! I find this with TypeScript and JavaScript too. Even if I’m just writing a quick script in JS, the fact that most of the libraries I’m using have TS definitions is really useful.
not "no evidence" though. my general point over all of my comments on this question is that many "studies" are of doubtful significance - including burnt toast.

I used to moderate those forums. The ranks are based on post count, or whether you contributed to Gentoo in some form (forum moderator, infrastructure, ebuild developer, council/foundation member, etc).

The rank shouldn't be seen as a qualifier of how much you know about the distribution.

If you're rendering thousands of items on an SVG data visualisation, sure it matters.

You can tell it matters because otherwise React wouldn't have implemented escape valves to improve performance, like shouldComponentUpdate.

You can get around this by using persistent data structures with lenses, which is how Elm works. Then it's just reference equality checks as you go down the tree, which is inherently faster.
There's a lot of focus on the "bullshit generation", but this problem is not unique to LLMs. I find it much harder to cut through the bs of search engines. A lot of times the first page of a Google result is ads, including maps/etc.

It's gotten a lot worse than 10 years ago, and then there's the SEO spam the other comment mentioned.

I find ChatGPT to be a lot more effective for work as a developer, and I've essentially stopped using Google search day-to-day.
The SEO spam industry will just pivot to infect the results of those language models.
The advantage I have with gentoo for my personal servers (I use Mac for desktop) is that upgrades are incremental - I only have to deal with one issue at a time.

I don't think AI search can replace most forms of commerce search--what should I buy, where should I buy it, what are the reviews--without active, continuous, unsupervised web scraping. Which means SEO tries to game it.

It is baffling, but I think this is mostly because these activists have obfuscated what this is really about: male rage at women asserting their boundaries and saying no to their female-only spaces being eradicated.
Depends if one is on yak shaving or delivering code into production.

Being a Borland and ETHZ fanboy has taught me some hard lessons in development effort, when languages don't have tier 1 support from platform owners.

So until Rust is on Visual Studio and Windows SDK out of the box, I rather keep using .NET languages alongside C++ for Windows development.

I still use Gentoo for the reasons I started years ago: it’s possible to install what you want without what you don’t.

I would still find it easier to sit and think about the code if it was formatted differently. To me, this reads like a book that's just one long paragraph.
The thing I keep not hearing about Bing and Google’s chatbots is how utterly devoid of vision they are. LLM’s open up a huge new design space and yet both of these companies have simply bolted on chatbots to already cluttered interfaces and keyword-based advertising models.

From how I read it, it's an option, not an imposition. Some people have grown to really dislike GCC for one reason or another, so they get the chance to live without it as much as possible. Others will still be able to use GCC.

I save interesting t stuff to Notion in a “My Links” database for general stuff, “Recipes”, or a “Shopping” database for consumerism. On some items I go back and write notes if I’m in the mood; the draw is quick capture + able to link between items or organize/summarize/synthesize them more later all in the same app. This works okay from all my devices.

The more focused “recipes” and “shopping” DBs have really upped my food and interior design game respectively. I’ve now built up a good library of things I love to make plus my special adaptations that I can sort by effort level and tastiness. With shopping, I tend to slowly build up products for some purpose over months/years, and when I’m ready to spend I can quickly organize all my best options, sort by price, review them with my partner, to make the choice.

> I see many more paywalls at links to the Economist or similar sources so what's the big deal? People want to make money.

Of course but it has to be a balance. Medium does all the things I mention.

If they did just one of those to monetize, ok I'd not be happy but I'd give them a pass. A paywall ideally not because I'm really not going to subscribe after reading only 3 articles.

But doing all of those makes me feel like a cash cow. Like they're grasping at straws desperate to get some cash. They don't understand the user-hostility of this and that's important because the users are their resources.

And as far as the NYT and Economist, I avoid those too. If I really think something is worth reading I'll use a paywall bypass tool but generally I don't even bother.

Functions are not usually as obvious as the creator thinks they are.

Does get_height() include the optional border width or not? What does it return while the item is hidden? Does it return an int or float? Can it return a string value like "auto" or a null value? Under what circumstances should its value not be relied upon, e.g. while an animation is active? Why was it written as a function rather than a property? And so forth.

Requiring a comment is helpful in reminding the author to explain why this code was even separated out as a separate function in the first place, and all of the potential gotchas around it.
Sure, but this thread of conversation started with someone specifically asking for opinions on their indentation. It's not like the discussion was about the code, and this is just a big side-track of the actual discussion.
