> That said, I suspect that this will result in a reduction of severance agreements since there is very little that the company can gain out of a severance agreement now (I am assuming this also extends to various "you can't sue the company for wrongful termination" and similar).

This wasn't the case from the establishment of the original precedent until 2020 when that ruling was reversed. We're simply going back to a state that has existed for decades, and in which severance agreements were by no means rare.
When you claim he is affected by dunning kreuger you are by definition attacking the person instead of the argument. Hence "ad hominem"

Then when stating the authority of pilots and their unions you are not attacking the argument with a counter argument. Instead you claim you are right because of the authoroty of the union. Hence argument from authority.

Fallacious arguments. Clearly.
I’ve found PowerShell the easiest way to automate and power CI/CD in a mixed Windows, Mac and Linux environment.

The one thing I've never seen any "introduction" to martingale cover is why you should (intuitively) be able to deduce anything useful about them at all, given the expectation is defined not to change (to clarify, I meant expected not to change).

Hearthstone has two main game ‘modes’. The constructed Magic: The Gathering is card packs, the battlegrounds auto-chess team building auto-battler is subscription (although arguably that doesn’t affect much). The other incentives are cosmetic, and there are other game modes which are more niche. The problem with Hearthstone is that because it has a swath of modes, and all those modes price differently, it looks like you have this perverse overlap when in reality it’s pretty disparate.

My suspicion is if you wrote 10,000 lines of shell script that should probably be like 20+ individual scripts and you've written something with way too many responsibilities.

> Saying we shouldn't "tap the brakes" on AI out of safety concerns

I didn't say that we shouldn't tap the brakes, nor is that the only strategy. Other ones include, in rough order of viability: global economic sanctions on hostile actors attempting to develop AGI; espionage/sabotage of other AGI effort (see the Iran centrifuges); developing technologies and policies meant to diminish the impact of a hostile actor having AGI; and military force/invasion of hostile actors to prevent the development of AGI.

I'm sure you can think of others - regardless, there are far more options than just "more AI research" and "less AI research".

Marcel (https://marceltheshell.org) is a shell designed around the idea of piping objects instead of strings, in a way that should be more familiar to Linux users. It is designed to be bash-like. Instead of learning sublanguages (awk, find, etc.), customization is done by Python, and in fact, it is Python objects that are piped between commands.

To take an example from the article, here is the marcel code to read penguins.csv and get unique species values, sorted:

read -c penguins.csv | map (species, *: species) | unique | sort

Or to find species = 'gentoo':

read -c penguins.csv | select (species, *: species == 'gentoo')

"read -c penguins.csv" reads the file, but instead of returning strings, -c causes each line to be parsed into a Python tuple.

In both cases, parens delimit a Python lambda (you can omit or include "lambda"). "species, *" binds species to the first value of a field, and * to a tuple of the remaining fields. So "map (species, *: species)" maps the row to just the value of the species column. "select (species, *: species == 'gentoo')" uses a Python expression to select rows with species 'gentoo'.

You can also do grouping and aggregation in marcel. For example, this command locates files recursively, obtains the extension and size of each, groups by extension, and then sums sizes for each extension:

ls -fr | map (file: (file.suffix, file.size)) | red . +

"ls -fr" lists everything recursively (-r), yielding only files (-f). A stream of File objects is piped to map, which maps each File to an (extension, size) tuple. "red . +" does reduction (i.e., grouping and aggregation. The "." specifies that the first part of the input tuple, the extension, is used for grouping, and the second part, the file size, is aggregated using +.

Ask HN: Can where we live protect us from climate change?
I've been thinking about how climate change will affect my family, esp. children that we are planning to have. The impacts are continuing to get more severe and our governments can't meet their own targets. Separate from me making climate-conscious choices (which frankly I believe has little impact), perhaps the bigger leverage decision is where we choose to relocate our family.

I asked myself what will the planet look like 50+ years from now, and could there be "goldilocks zones" where the climate there will be stable for many years to come. Ideally this isn't an area where I need to personally live off the land, but instead large cities/communities that are protected. Separately, it may make for a good investment as well, but my primary focus is where to raise our family for the years to come.

Has anyone else been thinking about this problem or put some work into it? I took a stab at it some months ago, trying to piece together different climate projections of the future across factors that I felt captured the greatest risks (heat, wildfire, drought, flooding, etc.) I attempted combine these risks into a single score/grade and then map this grade across the continental USA. Here's what it looks like https://drive.google.com/file/d/1gTIoXDtlYWEx4xhFIs9CIkaFX9i3vbjB/view?usp=share_link and here's it as an interactive tool https://www.lucidhome.co

What surprised me is how much more protected northern USA is over the south. However, I also found there to be "pockets" (e.g. in central USA) where it's a low-risk area shield around high-risk regions.

I'd be interested to further discuss this line of thinking with people here, and share findings with each other.
> Working with text output is easier because it's uniform

If it is so uniform, why does every command need a dozen switches for modifying their output? Why do we need to use complicated tools like awk to reformat it for input into other commands?

Everything you cite as a problem with structured IO is a problem with text too, it just happens to also suffer from in-band signaling issues and be human readable. Oh and of course it doesn't have a standardized structure at all.

> I don’t see any reason to think of obesity as a different type of disease.

Because it's man made and completely avoidable. Look at tobacco for example, it was the exact same thing until it wasn't because we woke up and decided to act on the issue

Helping currently obese people to get out of the loop is good, breaking the system we built that make more and more people obese would be better.

Also, being obese is only a part of the complications of eating shit and not exercising, the rest of the symptoms will catch up eventually, there are no magic pills

It's not lost time either. The whole point of a sleeper train is that you get in, sleep a decent night's sleep, wake up, and move on. Ideally you board around 21:00 and get off around 7:30. The extra space in the train's timetable is also helpful in keeping the train on-time if delays occur en-route.

The effects of stand-up and sit-down meeting formats on meeting outcomes
"Sit-down meetings were 34% longer than stand-up meetings, but they produced no better decisions than stand-up meetings. Significant differences were also obtained for satisfaction with the meeting and task information use during the meeting but not for synergy or commitment to the group's decision."
These studies are honestly incredibly hard to do, because as the author points out, social media is simply part of the lives of the majority of people in the western world. It's impossible to isolate social media from the rest of the changes that happened in society. The attempts at doing "social media cures" and measuring the effects are cute, but since they only lasted a few weeks, are hardly good indicators of something (habits that don't stick are quite pointless to measure). Teenagers are increasingly under more and more stress with high stake testing, an increasingly competitive college admission process and increasingly grim prospects for economic mobility and long term environmental sustainability. Plus, the "smartphone revolution" lands bull's-eye on the aftermath of the 2007 Great Recession, which impacted a lot of families (was the teen depressed because of the smartphone or his house getting foreclosed?). To me, social media sounds like an incredibly convenient scapegoat to ignore all these deeper issues.

Now, your daughter drives a good point and is extremely eloquent.

There's two points where I feel like expanding what she said.

> First of all, the article stated that people using social media moderately (half an hour to one and a half hours a day) had little to no decline in their mental health, compared to a large mental health decline in those using it a lot (3-5+ hours a day)

I don't know how they measure time spent using social media (to me that's vague, is having iMessage running on my Mac "using social media"? If so I'm at at least 7 hours...). But if they measure "active use" (so let's say scrolling) 5+ hours is a lot. 35h/week, almost a full time job.

I'm wondering if the causality isn't reversed here (unhappy and depressed people in an environment where they aren't stimulated enough do end up scrolling 5+ hours a day as a consequence of their mental state).

To me, a kid that ends up on social media 5+ hours a day reeks of bad parenting. He/She should have hobbies and activities to fill that time.

> Yet another point was that people will compare themselves to other people on there.

In 2018 "obesity prevalence was [...] 21.2% among 12- to 19-year-olds." [0] according to the CDC. That's one out of 5 being obese, not just overweight. And it has more than tripled since the 70's [1]. I have to wonder if it's related. A lot of teenagers are bombarded with images of perfectly healthy bodies that, quite simply, won't match what they see in the mirror.

Ask HN: Are Value Qualifiers useful to get jobs?
I was thinking that doing Value Qualifier[s] might be a good strategy to play to stand up from the crowd to land a job in this market, but I’m afraid that it would hardly pay off given the amount it takes to create a good one and the chances to get the work noticed. Had any of you succeeded in using value qualifiers for landing an interview? Put simply, do they work?

What is a Value Qualifier? A Value Qualifier is a proposed solution for a key problem that the company is facing delivered to the hiring managers to showcase applicants’ skills to qualify for the role regardless of background and seniority. Aka your ticket to skip the line. Usually particularly adopted by people who are trying a career switch or have just started their first job search. I learned the term on LinkedIn from Andrew Bowker, despite the brand new terminology the concept isn’t new.
This is true, and I frankly don't believe anyone that says there are conditions which make weight loss impossible, since I've lost 90 pounds myself and kept it off by changing my diet and moderating calorie input, a grueling and on-going process.

Regardless, I am very happy to see that there are effective weight-loss treatments that will be available soon, because losing weight is incredibly hard, and it's been shown definitively at this point that something is causing most Americans to be fat (not just Americans anymore either), it negatively impacts their lives, and for one reason or another they are unable to lose the weight without help.

I also haven't worked out how to install programs to the gui-emacs namespace through pure emacs commands. I feel that both methods should be possible though.

Not really. While it looks good on paper, booking some of these is quite a pain. I loved travelling by train as a kid, and would love to do it now, but when you compare the offers, it's quite bad. A flight is 1:15 between 2 places of interest for me. The train routes on this map exist (used it twice), but part of it is at night but only has normal compartments. Whole train journey is 15:34 (compared to 1:15 flight), with a sleeper cart only on the last 6 hours (and that is actually at 10 am in the morning, the first part, from midnight until 10am is the normal train). Not only that, but you can't buy only one ticket, you need a ticket for the first train from one operator and another ticket from the second operator.

Once we get a more unified european system that properly covers also medium size cities and not just connections between major hubs and capitals, I think more people would switch to trains.
