Actually, this is absolutely possible today using data packs. They're the successor to the modding API project and they provide a very simple declarative JSON-based syntax for adding new blocks, items, customizing world gen, adding new commands, advancements, and even custom entity behavior (using the flexible tag-based entity data system).
Frustratingly, the "on error goto" mechanism in Visual Basic is basically try/catch, except that the error object doesn't give you any kind of stack trace (not even the procedure or line number where the error occurred) so you have to constantly catch and rethrow errors just to add context information.
Can’t relate at all. Maybe it’s regional. In EU conventional light bulb have been phased out more than ten years ago. In the first few years there were some crappy LED bulbs until manufactures solved issues of basically completely new product. I don’t remember any LED bulb I ever bought breaking until now. And ones I bought in last 5 years (when moving to a new place) also have nice warm colour and don’t flicker. Good bulbs used to be around 5-10€ per piece, now more due to inflation. But I don’t mind since they last forever. And way more efficient, wonder how long it takes before cost is made up my savings in electricity bill.

This is the big problem with Mastodon. Some people want highly curated communities on small instances, and it's great for that. But it's really bad for people who want to make us of network effects - as exemplified by the very phrase '______ Twitter'.
I don't "hate working remotely," but this is well said.

I have four kids. The oldest was born in 2014, and since late 2016 I've spent an enormous amount of time working from home as a graduate student and as a professional during COVID. But our oldest kid recently expressed that I don't spend enough time with her.

At first I thought, "Seriously? I've spent more time with my kids than literally any father I know, eating three meals per day with them, taking them for walks and to the playground or to appointments during the day, changing more than half the diapers, etc." But then I realized that from her perspective, she mostly saw me looking at my laptop and heard me saying "I'm trying to work, I can't do X right now." If I were out-of-sight, out-of-mind, when working and she only saw me for the two hours per day when I wasn't working, she might have a more positive opinion of our relationship.

And, yes, the reasons I like working from home are precisely because, as you said, it helps me cope with all the other problems related to housing and commuting.
If your most senior employees are your worst employees then you have much deeper problems than the need to downsize.

The best people leave when conditions deteriorate not simply because you have a smaller workforce. Shuffle people between projects and scale back workloads as you scale back the workforce and nothing seems wrong.

It’s true not all jobs are findable so you’re going to need some onboarding and to let a some people go but that’s just a normal part of business.

This is true only if the "output" is of the same quality as the work done by humans. For tractors, that's unarguably true. For writing and artwork?

(Unless someone wants to make the argument that automation has allowed and will allow humanity to do things that shouldn't have been done in the first place. Progress comes with consequences.)
Quite possibly.

Every so often I buy beans to see what I’m missing and I’m usually very underwhelmed. It’s time I did this again.

New Zealand is lucky as the importers don’t bring in much crap coffee and so the average is good. A large bulk is brought in by just a couple of companies and all seem to have high standards.

The key to home roasting for me is freshness. I like coffee a couple of days after it’s roasted. I can control this and struggled when I was buying beans.
Sure so does alcohol, cigarets, gambling, video games, sugar, etc.

> The way I read your post, saying you "can get" very valuable advice immediately followed by saying some advice was wrong undermines that "can" pretty solidly.

I disagree. Getting advice from subject matter experts is almost always of great value. The chances of that advice being on-target for you are never 100%, but that doesn't mean the advice is without value. It just means that it's not infallible.

In the end, as with literally everything about running a business -- VC backed or not -- you need to take in all of the quality information you can get and decide what's important/relevant and what's not.

Having access to more information is a Good Thing, even if some particular bit of information isn't helpful.

Also, while access to subject matter experts is one of the benefits of a group like YC, it's not necessarily the most important. Even if that's not useful to you, the other benefits may very well be.

Disclaimer -- I'm personally not interested in doing VC-backed ventures. For me, the juice isn't worth the squeeze, so I'm not asserting that YC is some sort of panacea that is valuable to everyone. But it is obviously of great value to some. Part of what an entrepreneur needs to learn how to do is how to determine what is of value to your startup and what is not. Every venture is different, and has different needs.
Hi Bea, I have been experimenting with it just now. The add multiple urls behaves strange..
Sometimes it gets the urls right, but after the first 20 pages, it changed all my https urls into..

212);">(URL WITHOUT HTTPS)</span></div><div><span

I changed the url, but it seems something goes wrong in the https:// replacement - this prevents me to add more pages after the first 20 did work - I have already reloaded a few times, and it's strange that it did work for the first 20 pages (they are from the same list / url format)

Ideally? Something like RMS and peak-to-peak amplitudes below 120Hz and below 1kHz, when fed with good AC power. The former would be potentially noticeable in peripheral vision or with eye movement, and the latter could affect filming, particularly with a rolling shutter.
Heh recently I wondered why we don't use SMTP to send for example telemetry data around. It has everything for reliable message delivery. Instead I went with MQTT for the latest project that collected telemetry data and shoved it into a database, out of fear the next admin would come to hunt me down for using SMTP for a thing like this.
> I hate that the vast information of the internet has basically required us mere mortals to try and become experts in literally anything and everything just to be able to buy something that isn't awful.

Awful junk existed before the internet. It’s just that people didn’t have much of a way to know any better, nor did they have many options to choose from. People relied on word of mouth, marketing material, or the shop keeper’s advice to decide what to buy… that is, if the store even had multiple options.

There’s not more crap today, there’s more perspective.
Thank you so much. You are confirming a lot of my suspicions and it gives me some clarity.

Diamonds are expensive not because they're hard to get, but because their sales and distribution channels are controlled by a cartel. Oddly similar to SWE salaries, now that I think about it. :P

>R would also be there.

Surely you jest. Whatever problems Python may have with proper development or deployment practices, R is ten-fold worse. R is and will forever be an interactive, make-it-work-now language and production backbone second. The language is far too accommodating and will go silent casting all manner of sins in the manner of keeping the program running. Package management is still a huge headache as proper isolation is still not well addressed. Too many R packages assume they have root during installation and can do whatever they wish. Volumes can be written about R namespacing.
I like that Fedora is as easy to operate as Ubuntu, but that it is updated more frequently, so I've used it on my servers for years. I've used Arch and Gentoo a bit before and they felt like too much work. But now Fedora package updates feel too infrequent. I want to run the latest stuff but without the hassle of Arch/Gentoo. Maybe Debian Unstable?

It does not suggest that. Sending with non Americans may simply be so likely to fail that it’s not worth trying.
There seems to be a lot of truth in that, but I think it's also maybe a little harsh as well.

Google hasn't needed to generate another monster revenue stream outside of ad sales, so it's possible that they never really tried all that hard (they've certainly killed it on the things that protect it, notably Android and Chrome). An utterly dominant position in how people access information that lasts for decades is probably "a hell of a drug".

For example, GCP is technically a really, really good cloud offering, maybe even the best for a lot of use cases (if you haven't looked at it lately, Cloud BigTable looks friggin amazing, I wish I'd had that database for the last ten years). They've obviously failed to parley that technical achievement into dominant market share, but maybe with the pressure on around search they get serious about whatever combination of pricing and marketing and customer support that gets them some serious market share.

YouTube has been quietly building their TikTok competitor into something I'm actually starting to waste some time on, they people who work on that are clearly really good at their jobs even if they started a little slow.

And on the LLM space, honestly I'm rooting for them: MSFT/OpenAI/ChatGPT need at least some competition and they are probably the best positioned to do so. Facebook/Meta is also doing this stuff in a more "open" way and that's keeping the pressure on around some competition too.

In general this LLM stuff is going to be a great thing long-term, but letting one company dominate both mindshare and marketshare is going to make that a much rougher road for society than if it's avoided.

> not having to wait for a Faema to heat up, take a rather large amount of space and whatnot

And whatnot. I started turning it off at night (not recommended by manufacturer) and at the same point in time I started charging an electric car that is used daily.

The power bill has gone down.

The electric car uses less power than the Faema E61. Not good.
The problem with those real-world analogies is that those things don't scale in the real world. Even if you're a 10x lockpicker compared to an average burglar, you still have to actually go to the place you want to steal from, actually carry out the loot, expose yourself to being witnessed, and all that stuff.

Whereas with computers, if you have, say, a zero-day exploit for nginx, it's feasible for a small band of black hats to infect hundreds of thousands of servers. And if a single person has the equivalent of a zero-day exploit for NPM's hypothetical review AI, they can just spam tens of thousands of modules and if only 0.1% manage to slip through the cracks, you're golden.

If the general public wants a cheap, bad product, they can do so, but they rarely have the inside knowledge to discern quality. Marketing is responsible for telling miseducating them.

Their claim is that of the fentanyl seized at the border, 90% of that is from Americans in American cars. The other 10% would be from other sources.

That does not include:

Fentanyl seized at locations other than the border. Which we would know about.

Fentanyl manufactured in the United States.

Fentanyl in hospitals and other regulated areas.

Fentanyl not seized at all.

So they aren't making a claim about all fentanyl. They are making a claim of a certain segment of fentanyl.
According to Wiki, carfentanil is ≈10,000 times more powerful than morphine. We're now talking 10s of micrograms for LD50 in humans. Whilst not as a potent a killer as botulinum toxin (a few nanograms), we're dealing with a substance that's essentially unmanageable.

As Wiki mentions, carfentanil is powerful enough to be classed as a chemical weapon. It's time this message was widely broadcast.

Pretty interesting. Just a heads-up: On my system, in desktop Safari, the simulation stalled almost immediately. Upon reload, the fingers moved but no sound came out. After I turned up the volume, I opened the control panel and suddenly the sound started working and blasted me out. Beware!

After that it seemed to work OK.
A possible point of confusion: "I count at least 50 math symbols" wasn't in reference to APL, just my count of how many symbols are widely used in mathematics. Contrasting your claim that APL has "far more symbols than I've ever seen in my math degree". Agreed, most of APL's symbols are not found in mathematics.

I refer you again to Perlis, same paragraph: "It is true that BASIC and FORTRAN are easier to learn than APL, for example, a week versus a month. However, once mastered, APL fits the above requirements much better than either BASIC or FORTRAN or their successors ALGOL 60, PL/I and Pascal."
Perhaps but perhaps not:

1. There can still be many companies in an area with lots of close by housing such that you’re not tied to a single job.

2. I moved cross-country several times while my kids were young and it didn’t bother them at all.

3. I’m mindful of staying settled for a while now that my kids are getting older and forming real friendships. But this is like a 10-year window of time, not an entire career.

The Sackler's were unscrupulous dope peddlers. The whole premise of Oxycontin was a lie: specifically that it lasted longer than it did; combined with actively pushing the medication for cases where it wasn't necessary helped set up the crisis.

That said, there will always be demand and that demand would be better served if not criminalized. These drugs should be made available for legal purchase but we need to find ways to incentivize minimizing the sale and consumption of such.

I fail to see the difference between letting an adult drink themselves to death vs doping themselves into oblivion. The former is both legal and acceptable whereas the latter is not; but they're effectively the same.
