Seems like they are purposely making the JS version extra long. It could be:

items = items.map(x => x.length > 0 ? x.toUpperCase() : `<empty>`)

We apparently disagree on whether the general, flexible construct is the subtype or whether the specific, constrained construct is the subtype. You seem to be thinking from a object-oriented programming class hierarchy perspective, while I am thinking from a set theory perspective (i.e, the set of operations that can be done with GOTO is a superset of those that can be done with CONTINUE or BREAK).

At this point, I don't care which you call the subtype. You can claim that as a win if you want, but having spent so much time on this stupid thread I think we've both lost.
One harm to citizens is that future entrepreneurs will be less motivated to create new products in a regulatory environment that makes it difficult or impossible for them to profit from selling their businesses. Therefore there will be fewer disruptive / innovative products.

If you think this is theoretical, see the startup scene in Europe and Canada.

> being very sensitive about real or perceived aggressions from men. Perhaps justified, but now it means a small misstep or failure to walk the line can be costly in a social sense.

Not at all justified. Crying victim over vague aggressions is as pathologically toxic and sexist as it gets. They can't even be bothered to make an actual false accusation they can later be held accountable for, it's just "waaah, there's a man here who's not behaving the way -I- want them to. Minions, attack!"

It's regressed so badly, any sort of attempt to hold this subset of women accountable for their own behavior is met with them trying to rile up a mob against you as they publicly squawk about you being vaguely "aggressive." The point is to intimidate male targets (legitimate or not) into compliance and silence. It's not justified, it's female-perpetrated abuse (DARVO is passive aggression).

Not a fun time to be a parent or teacher with any sort of legal responsibility for this demographic; there is absolutely no support for custodians because everybody has been conditioned to uncritically associate all men with abuse and all women with victimhood. God help you if you're a male victim of anything, because nobody else will!

IME: In a recent workplace violence complaint, a female employee played this card against a male manager who was "aggressive" in giving her a negative performance review for job abandonment (ironically, this wasn't a younger employee). She later stole thousands of dollars of equipment and quit.

The solution to “landlord demands a lifetime of labor” is to fix the shortage. Permit more construction and landlords will have to compete for tenants. We could easily build a hell of a lot more housing than we have today: https://twitter.com/conradhackett/status/1594939920166141952

Hell, there are cheap vacant houses out there right now, they just aren’t in the healthy labor markets where the working class need to live.
A similar thing happened with FlowTex [0]. FlowTex was founded in 1994 by Manfred "Big Manni" Schmider [1, second on the right] and Klaus Kleiser as a business for selling horizontal drilling machines. After a few years, they claimed to have sold over 3000 machines, each for 1.5 million marks. In reality, they had only sold around 270. They sold non-existing machines to leasing companies and immediately leased them back, without ever delivering the machines. This made it look like there was actually demand for these machines, which encouraged banks to give FlowTex more loans to buy (non-existing) machines. When the banks wanted to see the machines, they showed them a few in one hall and then served dinner. During dinner, they replaced the serial numbers on the machines, drove them to the next hall, showed them again to the bank representatives, created another disruption, replaced the serial numbers again, and so on. This went on for years.

When the scam collapsed in 2000, "Big Manni" was living in a palatial mansion on 15 acres of land [2], had houses in Cannes, Miami, Ibiza and St. Moritz, and owned a 55 meter yacht that previously belonged to the prince of Brunei. He had 2 private jets and a helicopter to fly him 10 km to work every day. In total, FlowTex had received over 4 billion DM (over 2 billion euros) of loans for buying fake machines. It quickly became clear that people in the ministry of finance and the tax office knew about the scam for years and did nothing to stop it. FlowTex paid taxes on the money "earned" from selling the fake machines to the leasing companies, politicians were proud to have such a successful company in their home state, and he was a large donor to the governing parties. I recall seeing a documentary once where it was hinted that even people inside the banks at least suspected it, but profited from provisions for giving out the loans and did not raise any alarms.

Ask HN: Is this Generative AI hype healthy?
With the rising Generative AI hype, I'm starting to feel totally overwhelmed. I'm a tech person and I've always enjoyed tech stuff and innovation. But seriously, with the recent advances in Generative AI, and especially with the absurd proliferation of AI apps that are simple modifications of GPT3/ChatGPT and Stable Diffusion, I'm worried about the consequences that it will have on humanity. Nowadays, whenever I see new content online, the first thing that I think about is whether it was created by an AI or a Human. And with all these new AI tools popping around, the Generative bulls*t is expanding even to my emails and my personal/work chats. I feel like I'm suffocating from all this fakeness. Is anybody else in a similar situation? What do you think about this Generative AI hype?
The concept behind Anglish is poorly founded because English is built on Latin just as much as on Germanic roots, if not more.

What do they do with grammatical constructions like non+<noun> meaning "not a <noun> and non+<adj> meaning "not <adj>". English just isn't English without non-.

ex- is another one.

What do Anglish speakers breathe and push out of their lips when speaking Anglish words? It better not be air which is from French, Latin and ultimately Greek. Indeed, I see they replace that with lift. If you know a bit of German, it's not far off from luft, but calling the air lift screws up English, rather than purifying it. lift meaning air is a dead word that disappeared in Middle English.

I suspect purification attempts will produce better results for languages that have a less diverse, more linear (and perhaps shorter, in some sense) history and are spoken by a relatively small number of people concentrated in a particular area.

Vegetation can make an excellent screen against undesired views. A food hedge makes a great fence to screen over an ugly warehouse, bright street, vacant lot, or pesky neighbor.

You can also use some kind of structure, of course. Sometimes that will involve more rules, and some people just prefer using plants.

Ideally this should be part of a complete sector analysis, which also considers things like sun and wind direction.

I'm reminded of a recent housing development that was planned in the city where I live. They wanted to build a few hundred near zero-lot-line single family homes and townhouses. It was on land that was previously zoned industrial, so it required a pretty lengthy approval process.

The neighborhood next to it fought the proposed zoning changes. Too many houses near by, increasing traffic, too close to the creek, etc. Probably more likely they were worried about property valuations changing. Ultimately they got their way, and they never got past the planning stages for that neighborhood.

However, it didn't stop development on the property from continuing. Since it was already industrial, they went ahead and started building an ugly. massive, tilt wall warehouse on the property. It didn't need many reviews and got approvals very quickly.

So now instead of some nice houses, a park, and a few small retail spots to help increase the massively supply constrained housing stock in the area we're going to have a probably busy warehouse with large trucks coming and going constantly deep in the heart of what is otherwise a largely residential area. Nice going, NIMBYs. I bet that warehouse is going to help your property values quite a bit.

I do think the controversy is stupid, but inside my own company, we significantly delayed migrating some projects to Github because people were concerned that the way Microsoft handled Copilot meant that Github wasn't a safe long-term host for an open-source project (and yes, I'm aware of all the reason that's irrational).

Even if the people angry about Copilot are a minority, it might still have a bad move. Trust accumulates slowly over years, but mistrusts builds up over only a few events. People are still remembering Microsoft's anticompetitive practices from 20 years ago. The mistakes it makes now might stick for a long time.
Urban villages are a nice concept and they offer a doable, gradual way to upzone American cities along existing arterials. I've been a big fan of them on paper. The problem is often the implementation. Urban village zoning can place tough restrictions on market-rate development (they usually have carve-outs for BMR or affordable housing with fewer requirements) which discourage development. Urban villages aren't immune from NIMBY pressure either, especially if they're being built in an area that was previously only zoned for commercial or light industrial uses.

[1] talks about San Jose's urban villages which are often built in formerly light industrial zones and some of the issues with getting them off the ground. It's a shame because I feel like urban villages satisfy the need for upzoning in a way that doesn't completely jar the urban fabric of an area.

Adobe isn't (ostensibly) trying to monopolize though, they're trying to buy another company.

Regulators step in and say "That would be a monopoly", to which everyone involved says "Darn, well we can't continue trying to merge then, since that would be a felony".

From this paper:

> In a population-based prospective cohort study with repeated dietary records, ingestion of multiple artificial sweeteners (for example, aspartame, acesulfame potassium and sucralose) was associated with CVD risk.

Ok, let's look at that reference.

> Results Total artificial sweetener intake was associated with increased risk of cardiovascular diseases (1502 events, hazard ratio 1.09, 95% confidence interval 1.01 to 1.18, P=0.03); absolute incidence rate in higher consumers (above the sex specific median) and non-consumers was 346 and 314 per 100 000 person years, respectively. Artificial sweeteners were more particularly associated with cerebrovascular disease risk (777 events, 1.18, 1.06 to 1.31, P=0.002; incidence rates 195 and 150 per 100 000 person years in higher and non-consumers, respectively). Aspartame intake was associated with increased risk of cerebrovascular events (1.17, 1.03 to 1.33, P=0.02; incidence rates 186 and 151 per 100 000 person years in higher and non-consumers, respectively), and acesulfame potassium and sucralose were associated with increased coronary heart disease risk (730 events; acesulfame potassium: 1.40, 1.06 to 1.84, P=0.02; incidence rates 167 and 164; sucralose: 1.31, 1.00 to 1.71, P=0.05; incidence rates 271 and 161).

This study shows the same thing with _all_ artificial sweeteners, and has way more people (n=103,388) than the present Nature study (n=1,157). And we know that erythritol is often used by type 2 diabetics due to its low effect on insulin levels. That population is predisposed to cardiac events to begin with.

When adjusting the US/EU cohorts for cardiovascular risk factors, the observed effect with erythritol are smaller and closer to this study of other artificial sweeteners.

> Consistent with the results observed within the discovery cohort (adjusted HR = 2.95 (1.70–5.12) P < 0.001; Fig. 1 and Supplementary Table 4), the association between erythritol levels (fourth quartile versus first quartile) and incident MACE risk remained significant in both US and European validation cohorts following adjustments for cardiovascular risk factors (adjusted HR (95% CI) = 1.80 (1.18–2.77) and 2.21 (1.20–4.07), P = 0.007 and P = 0.010, respectively

I'm not convinced of the validity of this study. They ignored the rat chronic toxicity data and proposed a mechanism for what they saw in a small cohort of humans, but it should be reproducible in mammals.
What?

A lot of the saved weight in cars is probably plastic, but the metal parts of the care pretty obviously make up the majority of the weight.

So, the title here is a bit misleading. It sounds like the particular lawsuits in question are all being flatly thrown out - the delays are normal parts of the design review process or self-imposed.

> He said Mayor Harrell and Councilmember Dan Strauss are awaiting those findings before introducing legislation that would reform the design review process, including exempting design review from affordable housing projects or projects that contribute to the MHA fund

If the point of the design review process is to prevent architectural oversights or zoning mistakes, then surely it wouldn't matter if the building project payed into the city council's pet fund?

They should either admit it's a dumb process that doesn't actually do anything and get rid of it for all projects, or stop having zoning laws all together if following the letter of the law is still going to put you into a 4-year backseat driving session anyway.
> I love my car and the open road, but I think I might prefer walkable cities…

The more people that have walking, cycling, and transit as an option, the fewer people may drive, reducing congestion for the folks that have no choice to drive (e.g., deliveries, service techs, etc), or those that may need/want to drive only occasionally.

Not Just Bikes (of course) had a video "The Best Country in the World for Drivers":

> The Netherlands is famous for bicycles, and putting walking, cycling, and public transit ahead of cars. Yet paradoxically, it's the best place in the world to be a driver.

* https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d8RRE2rDw4k

Further, by having higher density (and not even the Manhattan-levels that some folks think when they hear "urban"), you need less land, which means you don't have to pave over rural areas as much and you get more actual nature.

Which is exactly what I said op was saying in the first place and you and he reacted like I physically attacked you. From my perspective you are being needlessly obtuse not understanding what I am saying. The thought of not telling the truth and willingly advocate for the government to just ignore or not share the root cause of a pandemic that killed millions is anathema to me.

It it turns out, as almost everyone suspects, that Adobe is buying Figma not because Figma will be a source of revenue, but mainly to prevent competition, then it's a clear violation of the Sherman antitrust act and should be punished accordingly.

Before then in the front of the queue should be companies like Uber whose entire business plan was dumping to destroy the existing taxi industry, and then have the monopoly power to raise prices.

That's a pure monopoly play.
