In a 24 hour period I’m getting 6-7 hours of sleep. The difference I find between regular days and single sleeping is that my mind is able to keep focused and in “flow”.

People mention REM and I don’t know how to be certain but I think I do hit REM, the fitbit refused to analyze sleep less than 4 hours for me, but when I’m just slightly over it, it reports good percentages of both REM and Deep, 23% REM and 21% Deep, according to them above average. It never likes my durations though, always too short. I only sleep 6 hours on average according to it.
This is very similar to France.

The last sentence is particularly true: lots of important things are being said in French among French-speaking people.

Spoken French is also quite complex because it makes use of many references (usually shared by people of similar age) and relies a lot on second degree (what you hear is not what is meant). This is probably the most complicated part.

My wife learnt to speak French and she initially had issues to understand people nt because she was lacking words but because what she was hearing did not make a lot of sense. It is because it was either a reference or (less common because people knew she was not a native speaker) second degree).

Finally we decide in France to make our own life difficult by reinventing a lot of technical computer-oriented words, but this si the same in German.

Oof. As occasional The Guardian reader and non-native English speaker I've seen my fair share of spelling goofs.
I’ve been using Stage Manager on macOS for this. I have groups of apps, each one in a separate “stage” that I switch between to work on different things. Out of all the desktop paradigms I’ve tried, this one is working the best for me

I can constantly see the thumbnail groupings of apps that I can switch to along the left hand side of the screen. I’ve used other modes (like multiple desktops) but would often forget what spaces I had created, and ended up re-creating them without realising

What's the difference between the apple split full screen and the windows tiling?
That's a fair point but on the other hand I've been at Miraheze for almost 8 years and having such a huge operation rely on a few unpaid volunteers isn't realistic in the long term and people burnout, lose interest or both. There's also the anxiety of knowing that the fate of the farm depends on a yearly (or even more frequent) fundraiser.
Thank you for the feedback I was leery of my assumption of the rate of promotions. I like your summary though that's more or less what I was thinking when I decided to write teh post.
I have bitwarden and works fine. We also use 1password at work and I have to say it works really well. So i would choose between those.

Autocompletion might be slightly better in 1password in my experience
or just `var result = stringList.Where( s => s.Contains("Tutorials") )`

I can't stand the non-extension-method Linq syntax: the _only_ place where it offers a readability improvement over ext-methods is using `join` - but I hardly ever do that in Linq anyway.

Also, in both my code and yours, `result` will be a lazy-evaluated `IEnumerable<String>` which may be undesirable - which means it's probably a good idea to use `.ToList()` to materialize it - which means having to use ext-methods anyway - and mixing both syntaxes in the same expression is aesthetically atrocious.
It isn't fit for humans now.
The thing with that is that is is the same people that ran Miraheze that have forked, so the thinking behind it will be the same, and it largely has been — they've copied verbatim all of Miraheze's policies and stuff, so I doubt the systemic problemls experienced will be different.

It’s kind of the entire thesis of the piece that marking to market of fixed rate loans in a rising interest rate environment is what made First Republic insolvent. So you should ask @patio11 that question not me.

Fixed interest rate loans do exist elsewhere but they tend to be fixed for a fairly short period relative to loan duration, and constitute a much smaller part of the book, so between the two effects you might be looking at an order of magnitude of difference between US banks and say Australian banks in terms of interest rate exposure.

And then there’s the bit where the US simply opted all its banks except the big 4 out of Basel III regulation, which is why First Republic could exist in the first place, and only exist in the US.
That depends.

Do you want the dynamically generated tests reported in discover? If so, then you need to assume that if you pass in the reference that it will only be used for dynamically generating tests and not for helping with skipping of tests or other use cases.
Eh. I’m not convinced by this. I may know what I want to query as often or more than knowing where it comes from.

I suppose it could be nice if the user could specify clauses in an arbitrary order but it’d certainly add complexity.

I don’t find it difficult to jump around a bit from clause to clause while writing a query. In fact, it’s incredibly rare to write a query straight through and have it do what you want it to do.
ever since lion began the ipadification of macos, apple's Happy Path™ has been native full screen (even though it's an objective downgrade from the scuffed fullscreen mac apps of yore, since you have to sit through a swipe animation every time you cmd-tab)

you can split this; you just have to hold down the fullscreen button, no right-click access because again, thoughtless application of touchscreen idioms

as someone who uses none of the above: lining things up is painless since window bounds are slightly sticky, & macos remembers app state so it's not like you're doing manual window management every time you start up $APP. broadly equivalent in practice to a tiling wm with elaborate preset layouts & pigeonholes for specific programs. except you just drag things instead of editing a config file. couple this with all the apps i frequently use in full screen (iterm, mpv) having options for pre-lion-style instant-switch fullscreen, and i'm not hurting for lack of snapping... ever, really.

fwiw there are third-party solutions for snapping if you really care, and there are even full-blown x11-style tilers
Supergiant star Betelgeuse is brightening up. Is it about to go supernova?
yeah :( fixed sorry
Why then the two 'full-ish screen' systems? There's 'spaces' as you say, and also the traffic light button that makes it 'maximised' I suppose.

I just don't see why if you'd thought it out, and that's (either of them) the you wanted people to do it, why you'd have both options.

And then there's the weird 'close actually closes the window, not the app' (even though for some large percentage of apps the one window is all there ever would be).
You should have been pointed to https://github.com/prso/hexcurse who forked it on the grounds that the original has broken screenshots and doesn't compile.
You were using it wrong IMO. The platform comes with a lot of built-in components (just look at the docs!) just from importing the React Native package.
There's a way to snap the window to one side or the other if you long press one of the resize buttons at the top. I'm a HS teacher and I often have my kids put two windows side by side. On the school-issued devices it's trivially simple, but it's honestly not that bad on a Mac. Just really unintuitive like everything else they do.
My go to example to explain the One True Mac Way of Window management is the “The many windows of John Siracusa” podcast from ATP a few years ago.

The relevant discussion starts at 1:33:00

https://atp.fm/episodes/96

Siracusa, who grew up as a (classic) Mac user, explains his tiling and overlapping habits to Arment and Liss, who grew up as Microsoft Windows users and later switched, and they gasp in utter horror, shock and awe.

For example Siracusa explains that he currently has a dozen terminal windows open, and also 19 overlapping Safari windows, normal for him, in BBEdit he regularly hits 20-40; they ask him if he doesn’t know about tabs and he replies “Oh, I love tabs! Of course every Window has many tabs!”. How would he manage/organize hundreds of tabs in multiple applications with a snapping tiling manager? He can’t. It is fun from there. Like, he jokes after a work week his desktop has “sedimentary layers”.
I wouldn't be surprised if the font is unique to the London Underground.

At least the first display's font is fairly distinct, I haven't noticed it elsewhere. The bottom of the capital letters is a pixel lower than the lowercase letters.

Printed signs from Transport for London use Johnston Sans, noticeable with the diamond-shape dots on "i" and "j": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnston_(typeface)
Yes, but maybe it's your family's home, where your now-orphaned kids have lived all their lives, and they might not want to have to move and change schools just to pay an attorney whose services they didn't want. Their guardian might be able to figure out a way to pay the mortgage and maintain their stability, if it weren't for the irrationally calculated probate fee.
Oof, that's grim typography, my condolences

I really would like people to forget about the "certificate" part in certificates.

Certificates are first and most importantly a way to agree on the encryption of the communication.

Then comes, far behind, any idea of "this site is the one I think it is". A large fault here is on the browsers vendors side by using a lock and suggesting that "it is TLS so the site is secure".

Do you actually think CPU usage is a concern here? Database performance and optimization, horizontal scaling, cache optimization (and cache invalidation) are the big problems. Security is also a big problem.

The performance critical part is the database, and that at least used to be written in Java (cassandra db).

Writing the bit of glue code between your high performance database and your fronted in cpp would introduce all kinds of really bad potential bugs, scary remote code execution bugs.

CPU usage of that glue code might take up 10% of your hardware budget worst case, even with a "slow" language. It's just not a concern.
I'm not sure why python was chosen.

But I contributed a tiny bit of code to reddit back when it was open source and chatted with reddit engineers on IRC, so I do know the official justification (as of 2010ish) for reddit sticking with python:

Websites are mostly IO bound anyway. The hot parts like markdown formatting and templating are already c modules. So the performances gain for rewriting in a compiled language aren't large enough to justify it.
I think with macOS’s design of the dock (resizable, unlike on Windows where the task bar always takes up the whole monitor width,) having one or more windows “full screen” on your desktop feels wrong. There is always some some space left unoccupied to the side of the dock.

Apple has a solution for this which is the green dot that puts your app in a separate space to be truly full screen, and you can split screen between two apps. I guess that’s what Apple would like you to do instead of snapping.
I agree with your point, but you misread my statement. We were talking about whether a company would have an easier time raising money once they were correctly priced.

For the reasons you listed, it was hard for the underpriced company to raise capital and too easy for the overpriced company. But those distortions go away once it is fairly priced.
In the end, we decided the goal is to make test harnesses not special so people can choose a solution like this if they want.

Personally, I feel like this does not fully cover the fixture use case.
In most tooling, you can write SELECT FROM table, then go back to the select list and have autocomplete work.

The situation could certainly be better, but at least this works today.
There are many reasons I didn't pass the Google interview but every time I did interview I had the most pleasant experiences. The engineers were really, really nice.

When my parents died, I found all these documents quite easily. But nowadays, some of this is 100% digital, in particular some retirement funds from the various countries where I worked. Even I would need a bit of work to dig into this.
I guess they'll use it to write articles about how jobs are getting lost due to AI
Agreed. The last thing I need is more flexibility in how people write queries. It would be shortly followed by numerous aggressive query formatting tools. Things would get messy fast.
Using a language with a faster runtime makes the system run faster. But it does not compound. So you are limited to a ceiling at about an order of magnitude faster execution.

Making better decisions on a daily basis compounds. You evolve towards a better architecture. Which can make the code multiple orders of magnitude faster.

One of many examples: In a complex system, developers often have a blurry vision of what can be cached, in which situations it can be cached, and how cache invalidation should be done. While in a more elegant system, the borders between different approaches to caching are clearer. Leading to the more elegant system being multiple orders of magnitude faster as it can leverage the different caching layers (in memory cache, on disk cache, the CDN ...) more effectively.
Hold down the option key. Hover your mouse pointer over the green zoom button in the top-left corner of the window. A "move window to the left/right side of the screen" option appears.
O well, if we are going to be like that?:

Sorry for your loss, and glad you and your family got such good advice beforehand.

(The ~$40,000 is based on the fee for a sadly typical $2.5 million SF Bay Area home, bought before the interest-rate hike.)
This is such a weird ahistorical view.

Overlapping and freely resizable windows is the Mac paradigm. In my estimation they don’t add snapping mostly due to pride.

Maximized windows is an intruder. Something that was big on Windows but never really a thing (and just not possible at all) on the Mac at all until a couple of years ago. The implementation of fullscreen mode is clunky and slow.

Given that Apple has been throwing different window management paradigms at the Mac (Exposé later retitled Mission Control which was the original new OS X approach, Spaces in different implementations, sticky windows resizing, Stage Manager, full screen mode, full screen mode with split view) it is truly weird that this grab bag does not include snapping windows. And, I still think that is just down to hurt pride and ego.

I'm working on a query language right now!

Why not SQL?

Lack of tooling for SQL.

Yes, SQL lacks tooling. There's a ton of stuff to build a SQL client, obviously. However, on the other side:

- I have no sane way to parse SQL

- I have no sane way to comprehend SQL

Writing a SQL query system would be many months of work. Tossing together a good-enough query language with standards like JSON or YAML means I can json.loads(query) in Python and JSON.parse in JavaScript.

SQL would be an ideal fit if there was good tooling, and it fits in more places than most people realize. Web API query a whole bunch of stuff stored in all sorts of complex ways. SQL is better on paper than RESTful / AJAXy / GraphQL / etc. APIs.

It's not better if it means that the query language takes more time to build out than the entire rest of the system.

TL;DR: If you want to build a high-visibility open-source project and guarantee employment for the rest of your life, an elegant SQL parser, especially for building web APIs, would be a great thing to do.
Not much will change. Models overfit on western content generating articles will not deviate from the desired western propaganda lines.
Possibly patents. As an example that may or may not be relevant, Google surfaced https://patents.google.com/patent/US10592080B2/en for me. It’s from “Microsoft Technology Licensing LLC” and says

“This document describes techniques and apparatuses enabling assisted presentation of application windows in a multi-application environment. The multi-application environment described herein presents one or more application windows, which can be sized, positioned, or layered to provide an optimized layout. In some embodiments, these techniques and apparatuses enable a size or position of an application window to be determined based on an edge of another application window.”
The query is just a requirements statement.

After parsing and analysis steps, the system is going to do what it does with the statement, no?

The syntax is for the user, not the system.
There is ample reason to believe that banks will be fine and the future will continue without random bank runs, SVB was an outlier.

But even if that happens, the delta between book value and market value for the banks is mostly covered by shareholder equity, so banks may fail but the system should be fine.
What were the chances? I installed Planescape Torment last night, to play around a bit with it. It's been sitting in my "to-try" list for at least 15 years!

I'm however not very fond of having to sit down on my desk to play games with keyboard and mouse, though... I already spend enough of my life sitting in the exact same position for work. That alone discourages me from playing several old games I own (and not so old, like the newer X-Com) and even the newer Monkey Island game (which of course is sitting in the same list for some years now too)
Sorry if my comment sounded rude. Harsh, yes, but didn't think it was rude.

Of course you will get lots of negative feedback, especially when you put something in front of thousands of strangers. It looks like you're handling that alright but just to give you a bit of comfort that's very expected.

Agent fees in the UK are typically 1.5-2% - so even for a property of 500k, 2% is 10k. And average property prices are well below 500k.

Show me an elegant SQL version for the queries in this article: https://www.timestored.com/b/kdb-qsql-query-vs-sql/
Particularly when you are trying to run queries where order matters, e.g. top 3 posters by topic on HN. You will find it much more annoying. Fundamentally SQL is based on the concept of tuples/sets which have no order so there's no way to avoid it being messy. What you want is a database based on the concept of an ordered list, suddenly what is complex in standard set SQL becomes easy in almost any other language. My second big complaint would be that SQL isn't really a programming language. Parts have been bolted on by various vendors or they now let you run python/java on the SQL server but considering how heavy SQL already is, having a full blown language may actually be less cognitive load than learning all the sub variations of language implementations.
Bigger problem is cars with welded ones that are not user serviceable or atleast standardized modules
I had a similar experience this month. We've been pair-programming using Dbt to write "long-form" SQL to bubble up a report to our business users.

After an initial "Uh-oh, I haven't manually written complex SQL in a while..." it all came back fast enough (Thanks, first-semester relational algebra!). Turns out, sql is well-suited for business "in-queries"!

The things that made us scratch our heads came from how the schema had evolved over time. We now have those hairballs at least 'contained' and visible. And it's all pretty readable imho.

I guess my initial unease came from using ORMs for CRUD persistence and very rare exploration. And holy moly, I'm grateful for ORMs. I wouldn't want to manually write those inserts and updates.

So, I guess it depends on what you want to accomplish with your database.

Btw: A HUGE shout-out to Dbt and Dbt cloud for letting us treat sql as code. Didn't expect to love it that much. How was this not a thing earlier?
As someone with little knowledge of wine, how are wine and money closely linked?
Exactly, you could actually drop the `select` in this case and just say `from table limit 10` don't state what you don't need.

What you describe is learned behavior to get along with a design flaw. SQL won't change, so no reason to worry.

My point is: People keep creating new versions of it, because it is not as `easy` to work with as it could be.
Sorry but for now there is only the Android app, maybe I will introduce a web version in the future.
If you can come up with desired inputs and outputs and have some building blocks in terms of the operations you can perform on them, sure. This happens with https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superoptimization and various algorithms have been found using such techniques. It also occurs at higher levels of abstraction, for example: https://www.deepmind.com/blog/alphadev-discovers-faster-sort...
Like everything Apple, it has an opinion. You either like the opinion or you don't... I feel that MacOS's UI paradigm revolves around extra large monitors and showing your screen as a sort of desk. A lot of wasted/empty space where you arrange things freely, as opposed to Windows/Linux which emphasize efficiency in using the screen real estate.

I use MacOS daily at work but I would LOVE if I could use Windows instead, that's what I have on my personal machine. It looks like the OP simply wants to use Microsoft and can't admit it to themselves!
