This article is so bad, I stopped reading it after one minute.

Plain wrong things:

> Today’s most talked-about AIs are generative — far superior to their heavily supervised predecessors.

No they are not. Generative AI is one kind of AI. Just a model being generative does not make it superior. Plain GANs from earlier years are not "superior" to the cutting-edge image recognition or speech recognition or semantic segmentation models.

> they temporarily made the tech bros forget about Web3 and crypto, which is saying something

Bottom feeders shifted away from Cryptocurrencies because enough people realized its pyramid scheme nature and the price collapsed. No newer idiots could ve lured in. And the plain stealing by "exchanges" merely accelerated that.

> back when a neural network was still called a Boltzmann machine

Boltzmann Machines and deep neural nets are different things.

I just wish fools and dumbs stop being loudmouths.
Not if women are dating older men, or if there is a gendered difference in the way people interpret the question (ie: what the definition of single is). Probably some combination.
Uh, "stop eating carbs 2 months before" sounds like bad advice that needs a lot of heavy caveats. As you know, carbs are precisely we need when going the distance. I know long-time runners who even eat pasta for breakfast before a half-marathon!

I'm ~64KG and 180cm tall. And I feel light when running; I have almost zero excess fat. If I reduce more weight, it would be unhealthy. As it is, I could be called (healthy) "skinny". This is one thing that's unmissable with marathon and longer runners (including the "elites"): many of them look unhealthily thin. I want to avoid going that route.

I'm thinking of trying gels. In my last half-m, I broke the "golden rule" of not trying anything new on race day, and paid a small price. Here's my embarrassing story, if you want to have a laugh:

I only trained once with an "isotonic gel" during a training run, and that time I took the gel right before the run. The gel is supposed to provide a small dose of carbohydrates as fuel. Now, during the (half-m) race, I put the gel in my back pocket (which I didn't try out in training). At around 15KM mark, when I reached for it, I felt the goddamned gel slowly leaking in my back pocket! I managed to fish it out and down the gel, but jeez, my hands were incredibly sticky for the rest of the 5KM. (Plus: the backpocket side of my running shorts was so sticky from the fricking gel-leak that whenever I sat down after the run, I had to forcefully detach my shorts from my skin!)

Now, I'm not even sure if the damn gel helped me. I suspect it even slowed me down a bit! (I'm judging this based on the pace of my last 5KM.) Luckily it wasn't a disaster, but an annoying distraction for about 5 KM. To be fair on the gel, my body was just not sufficiently used to it. I need to experiment more on how my body reacts to it. Some runners don't ... gel well with gels.
Kate (KDE's editor) is also fine.
Thanks for posting this, I've had similiar sleeping issues for years, I'm going to try out some of what you posted and see if it helps.
It is about men being single and male sexual happiness. Otherwise said, it is about what men should do to make themselves more happy. The implied assumption is that women are happy with status quo or might even have opposite interests.
We have to be careful and not fall in reductivism with the "is a symptom not a cause" line of thinking.

It could hold you back your whole life.

I think it is more helpful to think of it as A and B are linked somehow.

Otherwise you're holding up an abstract, imaginary, "true cause¨ that someday/maybe we will find. And of course no such thing exists. If we know anything about the body is that it is a complex ORGANISM where there is no single cause to anything.

Besides, if drinking before driving is NOT the cause of an accident (could be a myriad of other things like the state of the car, the conditions of the road, the weather, etc). End of the day, we know drinking and driving don't go well together - and a wise man will act accordingly.

If by "un préserve" they meant a preserve/marmalade then in French that's "une confiture" (or "marmelade" but it's less somewhat rare). I don't think "un préserve" is a word...
Unless they are dating not-young-men ?
The fact that anyone tries to call this "entertain me" proves my point.

There are such women of course, but this tiny trivial level of effort and sincerity is not that.

This is exactly what I mean by pathetic.

I am happy with my Moto G60S.

I just wish:

* The battery was replaceable

* Moto didn't do stupid things such as break VPN functionality when they released the Android 12 upgrade. This was a failure of pre-prod testing that had to be corrected with a further update a few months later.
My guess would be a fair amount of “it’s complicated” responses

According to the article, women are good though?

> The study found that among men under 30 years old, over 60 percent are single, almost double that of women in the same age bracket.

Meaning women are happily in relationships with men over 30 probably?

For the most part, these problems only pop up when you try to render RTL text visually, and then copy it back out from UI elements. In internal pipelines, however, it's just another string of opaque bytes that you perform a few very well-specified standard library operations on.

(Arabic also has the connection challenge, which Hebrew does not, but usually renderers that do RTL right also handle the ligatures.
FWIW the Japanese translation of the title is

To retranslate back to English as a relatively direct translation

The cause of COVID, there is a high possibility it spread from a lab.

Notably missing are something like 一番, to mean most. This title is in absolute terms. The reason I found this in the first place was because a Japanese colleague was surprised that it did come from a lab! after an initial moment of doubt before accepting it because WSJ is reputable.

I sent the news deck an email pointing it out but do expect it's intentional. Reading as absolute rather than relative is likely "correct" and a great example of misinformation from the WSJ. Presumably reputable news sources just don't exist anymore, or perhaps they never did :(

> An example of the desparity to me is the concept “mansplaining” woke culture disparages. Some women (and others) see a man explaining something as condescension.

Well, I don't know if you are being purposefully misleading or just ignorant of what mansplaining actually is, but here it goes. Mansplaining isn't "men explaining things". It's men explaining things because of an unfounded confidence in their (usually limited) knowledge in one area to a women who actually have an equal or higher level of knowledge in the area, because of internalized prejudices and ideas about the men being and "the wise ones" who come to "save the woman" from her own ignorance.

So yeah, I think the fundamental difference is people not caring to actually understand what "woke culture" is actually complaining about.

I find your post oddly self-contradictory.

I mean, yes, the loyalty to Thinkpads was in part because they had great keyboards. The first I had new, an i12200 series model 1163, was a badge-engineered thing made by Acer, with nasty plastic screen hinges that failed, only USB 1, only 1 SO-DIMM slot, etc... but it still had the IBM keyboard.

But the thing is that since the ?30 series (X230, T430, W530) Lenovo has gone over to awful chiclet keyboards.

So the model you cite is a late one with a nasty flat almost-no-travel keyboard.

Which is why I only use ?20 series or older, which have the good, 7-row keyboards.
The internet was not designed to deal with money, or security. The internet is designed strictly for information transfer from one place to another with extreme efficiency.

At that, it still excels and is no mistake. The problem is all the people using it for money.
That doesn't explain anything
Sound like you're defining "rights" along the lines of "what you can do in isolation, as long as it doesn't affect anyone else". Does that seem correct?
The only assumption is that Muslims may, on average, be able to "read the Arabic alphabet to some degree". Obviously 'some degree' makes it very variable, does not imply being able to really read/write/speak.

I don't know if it's true but that does not seem unreasonable.
> “mansplaining”

> I’ve always been grateful that anyone would take the time to educate or otherwise try to share information

You should really read up the meaning of this word because that's not it. It specifically covers the case of downtalking masculine men towards women, I see it all the time and it's despicable.
i dont work at fly but i do work in devrel and this is pretty common. its basically a joint result of the fact that most content marketing is either about lowering the barriers of adoption and telling an impressive technical story for recruiting and sales; and that most big companies require a lot of hoop jumping to post official case studies; and that fly is still a newish paradigm that most companies haven't yet adopted.

i have no doubt they'll come along if fly continues owning mindshare at this level. when its obvious on HN but not yet obvious on the marketing sites you just have to wait a couple years (with some exceptions to the rule, e.g. people often bring up the failure of light table which got significant HN pull and seems to have died out https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que...)
Then older single women should be more common than older single men.

Damn, it's so tough for the older women out there in the cutthroat dating world. Why don't young single men start dating older women?
Let’s understand if it is and how possible to create a tech micro-startup without experience in coding. I’m a software engineer, but even if I’m much more comfortable developing my own software rather than using a no-code platform if in some situations those platforms accelerate my development, I will use them to facilitate and accelerate my work. I’m not a purist that everything I do has to be done by myself, as I usually say “Don’t work hard… Work smarter”.
That’s a hell of an assumption.

My informed guess is once you scratch off the Instagram paint it’s an absolute disaster too.
I'd encourage anyone who wants to have an informed opinion on this stuff to try creating an account with the opposite gender on a dating website.

I did this about a decade ago (before the rise of tinder and suchlike) and the difference in experience for men and women is huge. I made an extremely basic female profile, with a photo that didn't even show a face and barely any other details - and I was immediately buried in a completely unmanagable landslide of messages.

And none of them were from people who'd read the profile and considered details like personality, interests, values or compatibility - I hadn't provided anything! These people must have been purely playing a numbers game, copy-pasting the same message to dozens of women a day with barely a glance at their profile.

That gave me an appreciation for the fact that women on these website have to get through their messages fast and even if my messages were nuggets of gold, they were buried in a dung pile of other messages.

I absolutely feel you have grounds for being self-congratulatory.

But the linked article, and much of the discussion here, is really about persuading more people to adopt Elixir. Essentially people are being asked to tie a period of their professional career to the fortunes of a technology.

Most of us code for money ... we have families to support etc. This is where a language becoming a "major player" becomes relevant, it's all about career investment. Part of the reason dev pays so well (for people who typically suck at salary negotiation) is the extreme mobility of programmers. However that does depend, to a degree, on the technologies you have experience with being widely used.

Niche technologies can leave you somewhat trapped in your current job ... and the people negotiating salaries and raises for employers will inevitably exploit this.

I liked it when Python had a smaller user base ... there was more of a "geek club" feel ... but there is no question that the remuneration for devs and the flexibility they enjoyed improved as adoption increased.

So ... there are financial risks to adopting Elixir ... but, if more people adopted Elixir this risk would fall away ... a classic dilemma. The problem is that everyone pushing the tech seems to be glossing over this dilemma, and the risk it presents to the people being pitched to. Now much of this can be attributed to classic geek enthusiasm over a superior technology (caught up in idealism ... not always pragmatic), but not all. For sure, the cheerleaders for every new technology will do this, but it is still somewhat disingenuous.

Right now I think this gap between tech idealism and career pragmatism may be the primary sticking point in increasing Elixir adoption ... but I feel it is wrong to try to bridge it but steering the next wave of adopters away from a realistic, informed assessment of the risks. Downplaying this is a step towards making fellow devs cannon-fodder in a mind-share battle.

I'd just as well say "jimbokum"'s post has zero relevance to what the word means in conversation.
Which is not to say he wasn't making a worthwhile observation - that those who complain the loudest about wokeism/cancel culture arguably share quite a bit in common with those they perceive as being the primary promoters. Certainly it's always struck me that a lot people on both sides of the debate really are exceedingly thin-skinned (or at least worry excessively that those they feel they're trying to protect are thin-skinned).

> and its all delivered to them in their language or Russian and its not coming from RT.

Yep, RT is aimed primarily at the "traditional" West (ie the US and Western Europe). Russia has other propaganda organs aimed more squarely at the former Eastern Bloc.
> Social circles have been shrinking for men and women, especially since the pandemic, but men struggle more. Thirty years ago, 55 percent of men reported having six or more close friends. By 2021, that share had slipped to 27 percent.

I am surprised over this. I thought the boys have advantage over girls in pandemic friends keeping. First, they play videogames as a form of socialization much more and therefore pandemic affected it much less. They still kept playing games with friends. And second, because non-feminist and slightly anti-feminists pundits created minor panic over girls socialization. (I put emphasis on non-and-slightly-anti-feminist, because feminists focusing on girls does not imply anything special).

Like, I get how video games as form of socialization prevent finding partner. But I am surprised they did not helped boys to keep friends.
Medusa ransomware group added Bank of Africa as a victim on February 11, giving the deadline for ransom payment as February 22.
I don't think that makes sense. The average age gap in relationships is about 2-3 years in Western Europe according to Google. I certainly wouldn't expect "the most high status males" to be uniformly distributed across age. I expect "high status" and "old" correlate quite well, and if what you said is the case, I'd expect the age gap to be significantly larger.

I expect that "attention" has a power law distribution for women too. It do not expect it is at all easier being a less than average looking woman.

What if everyone actually was a moron? In that hypothetical, would we just pretend it's not the case to not get the nanny state?
That's what I do and I'm single for 3-4-5 years between (long term) relationships, for a grand total of 5 at nearly 40. A lot of people have zero concept of how it is out there for us not-first-pick guys in online dating... and I guess it could be worse (just in a new relationship now), but yeah, it's pretty grim.

You are letting your imagination run a bit too wild (:
Note that Ruby2D aims to run on both ruby and mruby:

> Use a subset of Ruby that works everywhere. Ruby 2D applications are, of course, written in Ruby. Some users may choose to harness the full power of the language, standard library, and ecosystem of gems by writing interpreted apps targeting the standard implementation, MRI. Others may want to target the web via WebAssembly, mobile devices, or build native desktop applications, all which make use of a different Ruby implementation called mruby. Ruby 2D aims to support all of these use cases, even with the same app codebase. Your contribution must support a subset of Ruby that is compatible with and behaves similarly across MRI/CRuby and mruby.

I don't think this problem needed conditional probabilities. I had a go at coming up with a combinatorics approach and a simulation approach to verify the first attempt. It's here if you're interested: https://medium.com/@benjamin22-314/get-all-four-toys-b8653c2...
Exactly. Of course you shouldn't be so picky that no mortal is going to meet your unrealistic standards, but you should definitely be picky enough to separate the wheat from the chaff. Appealing to everybody when you're really just looking for one person means you're taking on a lot of pointless work. Let people select themselves: make sure your profile is specifically about you, and not some generic person of your gender. Don't be afraid to be off-putting to people you don't want to date. Don't claim to love partying if you don't. If you've got a weird hobby that would put a lot of people off but that you want your match to accept, definitely put it in. If you're looking for a long term relationship, put it in.

Some people just aren't interested in that stuff, so why waste time on trying to date them?

And as far as I'm concerned, this goes equally for both men and women. From my chats with women on dating sites, the behaviour of a lot of men is totally irrational to me: they just message every woman. Lots of women are inundated by messages from men who didn't even read their profile. This makes the dating experience for women extremely frustrating, as there's piles and piles of crap to wade through. So they end up ignoring most messages, which makes the experience also frustrating for men.

My advice to women on dating sites is to just ignore the flood of incoming messages from men you didn't contact, and instead look for interesting profiles and contacting them. I think that massively improves the experience for both men and women.
Dates Georg is an outlier and may be ignored.
Mental Health is just a cover for abuse the individual has suffered, the fact that you then state society stigmatises it, suggests society has a problem. Maybe its their laws, regulations, education and religion thats at fault!
Is caching illegal?
One of most frequent usage of a type system is literal types.

Haskell, Rust,... and modern programming languages fail to do it. The only exception is Typescript.

For example, simple way to adding a extended boolean type:

type MyBoolean = null | true | false.

Or

type MyRange = 3 | 4 | 5

Curious.
