While the bulk go back to the Normans, there were also subsequent significant waves of French and Latin influence on the English lexicon, so many of the most obvious similarities are much newer.

E.g. English imported another ~10k or more Latin words during the English Renaissance. Including the word "lexicon".

Then another wave of Latin influence via scientific discovery in the 17th and 18th centuries creating a need for new terms while Latin and Greek conferred greater cachet (from French to Scottish English around 1630) / prestige (French, from Latin) / status (Latin) over creating new "native" words. Of course helped by them being common languages for scientists to have a certain familiarity with, and sometimes fluency in.

It's particularly fascinating when you find relatively closely related words imported in different waves or from different sources (like cachet, prestige, status), whether because of nuances or perhaps differences in perceived status, or sometimes because the meaning has diverged from the original borrowing.

[Not a linguist by any means, but speak multiple Germanic and Romance languages so the differences and similarities always fascinate me and English still seems like a horrific mishmash, so I spend a disproportionate amount of time learning enough about etymology to make stupid mistakes]

To use Amazon's terminology here, it really feels like they're becoming a Day Two company. It took decades to cultivate the perception that Amazon cares about customers more than any other company. It takes so much less to destroy that image.

Google has already started paying the price for their customer-hostile behavior. It's a meme at this point how unreliable Google is for anything. Amazon and AWS have consistently been touted as the opposite. Contrast Google IoT Core with SimpleDB. The Googlification of Amazon will be to its detriment.

I use this method with a flat bottom pot (peanut oil and salt only), and I find that if I don't shake it from time to time, it will sometimes burn a bit before all kernels have popped. So, about halfway done, I shake and/or vertically bump the pot to let kernels settle back to the bottom.

As the popping slows, I take the lid off entirely (there's enough popcorn at that point to keep new popping from splatter or jumping out), and add salt, and then rotate the bulk of the popped corn with a bump to one side, salt again, bump-rotate, etc, getting the salt on it evenly without letting it cool too much. I like popcorn that's just-popped hot.

Two other notes:

I only use peanut oil, because at fast popping temperatures, some oils smoke. The popcorn does not taste like peanuts, if you'd worry about that.

I use more oil than most commenters, such that the single layer of kernels (3/4 cup in my pot) are nearly submerged at the start. Cleanup is more involved than a wipe of the pot, but the popcorn is a lot tastier and I don't need any butter or parm.

UUIDv7 is nice because it's just a variant of UUID, which are already supported in very many databases and programming languages. And even if you are writing code for an obscure microprocessor where no implementation is available, the encoding scheme is well known and straightforward.

ULID on the other hand depends on an uncommon encoding scheme. It is more complicated than hex encoding, so it's easy to make mistakes when implementing it.

Finally, the encoding scheme is weird, because it "wastes" a few bits at the end, so if you are not careful enough you could end up in a situation where two ULIDs in text form are different but once you convert them to bits they are the same.

What does seniority have to with it if you all have the same permissions? Are they able to override your moderator actions now and potentially boot you? Do you know the other mods? What do they have to say about this?

I have attempted a couple times to re-learn and the result is always the same. It goes beyond anxiety.

> He believes Amazon is becoming less accountable as it grows in power and treats customers worse.

He's right. I have recent first-hand experience of them deleting reviews of counterfeit products. The emails say:

"We investigated your concerns about product authenticity, and the information we have indicates that the product you received was authentic."

I've tried posting a review a further 4 times, each time only mentioning the quality issues and nothing about product authenticity. Every time, it's deleted within 24 hours, and I get the same email.

Amazon CS said: "As I further checked it here on my end, actually to tell you honestly, our partner seller is the one who manipulates the reviews on their product."

Who is the "partner seller" in this case? Amazon.com Services LLC.

So we're now going to label "re-education camps for extremist muslims" as genocide? What do you think China should do prevent extremist muslims living inside China from randomly killing innocent people, which was fairly common? How would you label the US killing innocent muslim civilians and invading muslim countries? That seems more like a genocide to me.

This is my point. The amount of anti-China propaganda in western mainstream media is so blindingly strong that we can no longer have a logical conversation about China.

Basically whoever has the most seniority has complete control over the subreddit, they can remove other mods or override any lower-ranked mods decisions. That doesn't mean they would, and I trust the new top mod, but it also puts a bit of a target on their back (top mods get blamed for a lot), means they're going to be dealing with a lot of people private-messaging them instead of messaging the subreddit, etc.

Basically "ownership" of the subreddit has changed hands after 10 years to the person with second highest seniority (at 5 years).

> Sure, that's probably true. But who the hell looks at that and concludes "I've seen families that have remained wealthy for centuries and what I want for my own descendants is to become peasants and wage slaves instead"?

That's the thing, neither of those options are acceptable to me. As Raymond Hettinger says (admittedly about easier problems to solve), there must be a better way. I think it's possible to have a society with neither oligopolistic structures benefiting only the rich, nor wage slavery for anyone who doesn't make it. And moreover, I think the best possible result for my children is not that I or they manage to ascend to the upper echelons, but rather that they live in a society where those upper echelons aren't present in the first place.

The World’s Empty Office Buildings Have Become a Debt Time Bomb
I don't understand this statement.

UUIDs rarely have to be unique compared to every other place in the world where they are used, they just need to be unique within the same context. The reason for using NIC addresses and time is to ensure that the chance of a collision is really small (but not 0). Saying that you are making them a little more unique doesn't sound like good motivation.

The second part is that just using random numbers gives you no real guarantees of uniqueness since without seeding with time and NIC, it would be highly likely that multiple systems around the world would generate the same number.
Yeah pulsing should always be a last resort, never works at scale
They can be good if they unlock significant new game mechanics.

The most extreme example (I know of) in that regard is https://pmotschmann.github.io/Evolve/ which has, at last counting, 12 different ways to reset, many of which are not accessible until you have done dozens if not hundreds of others. Exploring the entire game takes years of play.

i got to say, i am impressed with live voicemail. I installed the BETA on day 1 (stupid idea, really, but, YOLO!) and the first time i tried it, it was very cool. One "issue" i have is you cant see anything after the fact... Or at least i cant see it yet... If your phone is in DND (night time, for example) and a call comes in from someone (even someone in your fav list) it goes to voice mail, but does not "remember" what they said... its not shown anywhere... in reality, it should bypass it for favourite callers and ring, or at least let you send them to voice mail yourself, but it should also tell you what they said later... if your in the shower and you get out with 3 missed calls, you don't see what they said... if you do, you could decided to ring back depending on priority... also, the option to hear what they left as a voice mail would be handy, especially for harder to understand ancients (some reason, every time i ask SIRI to turn off the lamp, she hears alarm!)

[UPDATE] Looks like BETA 2 actually fixed that issue... You can now see the calls, which ones left voice mail and see the text and hear the call too... That is VERY cool!

The Fiat Panda nowadays (I know as we needed a small car and asked for one no more than 1 month ago) is realistically around 17,000 Euro, and (as said recent direct experience) they are going to deliver one no earlier than six-seven months (i.e. in practice it doesn't exist).

A Renault Clio is around 18,000 Euro, three, more likely four, months time to deliver.

The whole market is simply crazy in Italy right now, in the end we settled for a (more expensive, but actually also a little bit higher level) Hyundai I20, managed to get one in 10 days time (the only model they had available, with a few largely unneeded by us optionals) for around 23,000 Euro.

All the mentioned models are so-called "mild-hybrids", so - at least in the case of the Hyundai - you have an useless small battery that prevents from having a spare tire/wheel.

hyperinflation that I think is likely in that same time-frame

What a laugh. Every time I see people talk about economics on HN, the level of discourse is so poor and uneducated. "[H]yperinflation" - you mean like Weimar Republic where people needed wheelbarrows of money to buy a loaf of bread? Forget it. It is the stuff of fantasy. You would have a constitutional crisis in any modern democracy before it got that far. Look at the Oil Crisis(es) in the 1970s. Inflation got so out of control that Central Banks needed to jack up rates to nearly 20%, but they won. No wheelbarrows of money. We had nothing even close since then. (Here it comes: "Oh, but this time is different!" No, it isn't. So many people forget what _some_ inflation feels like. It's been 30 YEARS without inflation over 1% in Japan and it has mentally stunted the economic thinking and planning for multiple generations.)

If I could, I would sell "insurance" against hyperinflation all day long. Like taking candy from a baby; it would be such easy money. For example, write options on Fed Funds rate at 25%. You can pay me your option premium all you want.

Debt Collectors’ Awkward Moment: Their Own Debt Is Now Sinking
Truly, microwave popcorn is atrocious for all sorts of reasons.

I sense that some of this trigger happy approach is coming from other consumer protection laws triggered by the society (through popularity hungry polititians) demanding action from someone and anyone when one or some adverse parties use technology and services with harmful intent.

Not all of course, companies with too much power act hostile just for the sake of it (means random management bullshit from power obsessed or just ambitious member of it).

So I am not too sure if even more and more consumer protection laws for for particular situations will solve this instead of making it worse.
