An example: You on Earth see events X and Y happening at Alpha Centauri and Proxima Centauri respectively. If the observers at Proxima Centauri didn't see event X happening at Alpha Centauri before Y happened there, and the observers at Alpha Centauri didn't see Y happening at Proxima Centauri before X happened there. Then the events can be seen in either order by an external observer depending on where they are and how fast they move. If an observer at Alpha Centauri or Proxima Centauri did see the other event before their event happened, then they have a well defined order ('is inside the light cone').

I don't know, given that the UX situation in Windows UI - itself a inconsistent disaster that makes the disjointed things that make up KDE looks like a consistent desktop experience. They can't decide what UI framework to keep supporting, they keep changing what you're supposed to use to build your GUI every bunch of years.

As for the Apple side, well, destroying everything every few years with almost no regards for backwards compatibility isn't "figured out 20 years ago".

Completely agree, speaking as a mathematician who put in the time to understand the details of sigma-algebras. It's an implementation detail. We don't need to talk about inductors and MOSFETs to describe how bubble-sort works, and we don't need to talk about sigma-algebras to talk about conditional probabilities or expectations.

A wacky alternative implementation of probability theory can be found in Nelson's book "Radically Elementary Probability Theory" - I highly recommend it as a way to see how little the underlying framework matters.

And fwiw, when I use a moka (which if you'll reread my comment, is never the first brew of the day), I never let it go empty after that first burnt cup. Don't need the Humperdinck or whatever method to tell me that.

And, to that end: I've found a low-heat, long extraction to be optimal for a moka. The best I've ever had sat atop a wood stove for about 10 minutes, with one solitary drip every few seconds -- using a single-shot GSI "camping" moka with a standpipe dripping into clean glassware. That Hedwig guy is trying to make coffee fast, and there's a time and place for that. I just happen to think that a moka is the wrong tool for that job.

Suppose I have 100 million in my investment portfolio and a 5% interest rate. I want to buy a house for $10 million. So I withdraw 2 million in cash and get a margin loan for 2 million so I don't have to sell any securities. I take the 2 million in cash, get a mortgage for 8 million, and buy the house. On average the market returns 7%. So my $100 million portfolio is earning $7 million per year less the loan interest of 100k which comes to $6.9M. After 2 years I pay off the mortgage and repay the margin loan. I now have a house and I didn't have to pay any taxes on my securities to buy it.

What if the market goes down? Well, I just wait for it to go back up again. I can easily afford to wait, my margin of safety is huge. Since the margin loan is for 2 million, and I need a 50% margin of safety by law, then the portfolio value would need to decline to 2 million (98% decline) before my loan gets called.

How many people knew that was a saying associated with white nationalist types and reacted to that? Would the result be the same if it were differently worded?

For example: If someone asked me something like “are you proud of Western civilization” my literal rational answer would be yes but then I’d stop and wonder if I was being asked to agree with a fascist dog whistle phrase. Modern discourse is a minefield of dog whistles that sound reasonable when interpreted literally but signal alignment with something.

The large not sure response makes it seem like people were confused or suspicious like that.

In any case what Scott said went beyond just calling BS on a poll and was rather unhinged and strange. He’s been off his rocker for a while so I’m surprised it took him this long to start getting dropped.
It's even more mind-blowing to remember that on that scale, the concept of "things happening at the same time" does not exist, because the reference frames don't allow for it.

That's so bizarre: Stand here, thing A happened before thing B. Stand over there, thing B happened before thing A. Stand at this other place, now they did happen at the same time, but only for you! Nobody's more right than the other. Universally, "same-timeness" (simultaneity) does not exist.

So, by asking for:

> to know things that are happening right now or relatively recently by our standards

You're really only asking for your particular flavor of "right now or relatively recently".
> Any reason why you would use jq over Python?

Yup, and the OTA updates with Tesla are also better than you'd get on a car that's 1/10th of the price. Isn't it just a little bit over-entitled to bring up any iPhone in a discussion about budget phones?

Newsflash: the vast majority of the planet can't afford to drop $1000+ on a mobile device.
> How do you overcome it?

What an interesting way to frame it.

Debt is not something to "overcome". Debt is generally a tool to trade time for value. If you're accruing career debt, it should hopefully pay dividends. This is what people call "career capital".

Hard work does not automatically generate career capital. You have to be hard-working and/or smart and/or charismatic and/or lucky.

The only honest way to make money is to convince others to give you money. My personal advice is to (1) learn what people want and (2) hone your ability to create useful goods and services.

I highly recommend reading So Good They Can't Ignore You for more perspectives on building career capital.

Also consider reading How to Win Friends and Influence People for guidance on how to create charisma.

I mean, you can be that cynical towards any marketing influencer. Yes, there is a closed loop with these businesses, where the amount of revenue from being an influencer vs. their own business is not well known.

In Gary V's case, I would argue that his path towards success wasn't based on this. He had already built up his parent's business before he was a public figure. He understood the power of e-commerce, marketing and branding very early on, before social media existed. Today he's very successful consulting companies on how to do this better. These are all valuable skills people will gladly pay him for.

This is very different from the blueprint you've outlined.

But this would still be true if the families are fighting with pots and pans. And if your enemy is a drone flying at 10000m it really makes no difference if you're fighting with an AR-15 or a pan.
I think it could be argued that in certain specific scenarios, this shortcoming (in normal scenarios) can be advantageous, such as thinking outside the boundaries or constraints of a box, where the constraints happen to be incorrect but culturally axiomatic and are thus insurmountable for normal, "proper" thinking people.

Having observed many thousands of discussions about "conspiracy theory" or "just wrong" (but the normal person can't explain why it is wrong, in fact) topics, I am very confident in this belief. And now having also had some similar conversations with ChatGPT, which is able to overcome with ease many mistakes that humans make, yet cannot overcome others, I am even more convinced.
Apparently the theory that Ukraine posed the threat to Russia's government is incorrect. Russia attacked because it wanted to occupy Ukraine and convert Ukrainians into Russians.
> More and more speaker manufacturers are also selling their own amplifiers (not necessarily made in house)

Indeed. I've had horrible luck with reliability of these products (i.e. loudspeakers with integrated class-D amplifiers).

It'll work but that will upload your files to the cloud. If you're on cable internet or even DSL, transferring video files that way will take significantly longer than just using the local connection KDE Connect provides.

Of course, there are many local alternatives as well. I just can't see cloud upload features as an alternative to a local network transfer mechanism.
Probiotics do not feed bacteria, they are bacteria. SCFAs, butyrate, etc. are critical components for overall health, and especially in colon health and the normal functioning of apoptosis and other mechanisms. Prebiotic plant fiber feeds the healthy bacteria which produce those. Eating WFPB helps the healthy bacteria thrive and starve out the bad ones. Trying to intentionally repress the entire microbiome is a recipe for creating an opening for unhealthy bacteria to take over, while also depriving the body of healthy microbiome byproducts.
Well I'm still crazy, but at least I'm more aware of it, and can control and accept it (no more OCDs though)
The JVM is an interesting use case.

Indeed, at a compiled level, byte code is mostly long lasting.

I haven’t fired up a 10 year jar file recently but it would not surprise me if it Just Worked.

The success of that is twofold. First is simply that whatever changes are being made to the JVM, they’re mostly forward looking and don’t deprecate running code.

The other is that the conventional packaging mechanic is, essentially, a static binary. A “fat jar” is the term of art, with all of the dependencies bundled in.

But there’s still potential problems. They’ve been removing large subsystems from the JDK as of late. XML, web services, Java FX are poster examples. So legacy binaries depending on those will fail outright.

These can be added back to the Java runtime, but still “one more thing”.

Of course from the source code side, Java suffers dependency hell and code rot along with the best of them. Network based dependencies up and vanish. Long standing projects may not publish 10 year old jar files any more.

Also, Java has had other clods dropped into its churn. Oracle shutting down the java.net website was a huge sudden black hole in the community consciousness of Java. Overnight thousands of articles, blog posts, forum entries, and other artifacts vanished like Keyser Soze. Leaving behind a debris field of dead links across the internet.

So, to be fair, the JVM is a boon. I really like Java, and it’s still going strong. The VM architecture and the comprehensive nature of the Java runtime has made the moving of running code across systems much easier. As someone with an enterprise Java background, used to deploying WAR and EAR files, I got to mostly avoid the entire Docker and other such family of infrastructure. Install a JDK, install an App Server, all fairly trivial to isolate, and the system is ready to go.

But in the large, it takes more than a VM to get things accomplished. There’s always an eco-system at play.

And one primary characteristic of eco-systems is they evolve. Time marches on, and waits for no one.

> X11 for desktop window management (think how your windows layer on top of each other)

That’s not really the primary job of these protocols - they are primarily about interfacing with GUI apps and displaying their content — compositing those contents on top of each other in one way or another is the job of a window manager, which can be in-built, or separate from the display server.

> Wayland still doesn't support a lot of the functionality even from the desktop perspective

This has been less and less true. Plenty, or even most distros ship with wayland by default and people don’t even realize it. Under gnome which is arguably the most complete implementation I really have a hard time listing things that don’t work.

Are you sure it's not just that the battery has aged after a few years? I've of heard many people (myself included) getting their battery replaced and saying their phone felt like new.
I guess a couple of examples of this could be:

Having experience in some tech stack or industry that is no longer relevant but makes up a large part of your CV.

Having some role (eg support or QA) on your CV that unfairly makes it seem like you are not as technical as other people.

Being stuck in the same role for a long time with no progression - limiting then seniority of roles you can apply for.

Being in an industry and getting pigeon holed - eg crypto, finance, insurance. Hard to get into a different industry as people will perceive you to be a certain type of developer.

Not sure what it would be called - I guess “career limiting choices”.

It seems like the question you're posing is: in the context of colon cancer risk, if one's alcohol consumption isn't enough to reach the category of "moderate", does that mean the increased risk is zero (or insignificant)? I don't know the answer to that. That's something that could perhaps be determined by reviewing the literature.

Edit: Not that anyone cares, but I guess I'll say a bit more: I don't know what brand of kombucha OP drinks, or how much of it, and how many grams of alcohol that sums up to, and what the current body of research says (or doesn't) regarding the precise amount of risk incurred or not from that amount of alcohol ... but the fact is, there's extensive research on the association between alcohol and cancer and I stand by the suggestions that someone dealing with recurrent colon cancer should be cautious about alcohol consumption, and that it could be worth reviewing existing research on the matter.

It's hard to say. The diet was vegan, but it was a poorly implemented vegan diet. I was basically eating a lot of fruit and legumes, far too much fruit I should say. Once I started having the digestive issues, I started reading about it on the Internet, and I came across some sites talking about copper overload, how vegan diets inevitably suffer from an inbalance between zinc and copper, but I'm not sure if it's pseudoscience or not. I do have low ceruloplasmin, which is the molecule that carries copper around the blood, so that is at least interesting, but yeah, could be coincidence. In any case, I haven't managed to fix it unfortunately, even after switching to an ordinary diet.

Show HN: Did you know you can multiply matrices without multiplication?
TL;DR: This idea implemented in Python https://gist.github.com/danbst/fdf604ae279f9e01c8a28f1f84f9876e

Hello. Long time ago I have learned that

log(xy) = log(x) + log(y)

and that this was used by Napier to multiply numbers. Also I knew that matrix multiplication time is dominated by inner dot products, which use addition and multiplication.

And it just stuck me today, that it is possible to multiply matrices in logarithmic space (that is, matrix values are logs of real values) without multiplication! By using same trick Napier did.

(There are restrictions, as negative values produce complex logarithms. So it has to be handled carefully)
