Interesting, thanks for the context.

[EDIT] Worth noting that (and, yes, I checked Wikipedia because I don't trust my mental timeline on this) US aid dates back to 2011, before even that 2012 article about Euro allies agitating for intervention, but overt direct action (air strikes) by the US didn't start until 2014. Probably one of those things that only the youngest of us will ever get anything resembling a full, clear story on, given some of the early intervention ('12 and '13) beyond non-lethal aid was evidently by the CIA (unsurprisingly) and carried a price tag (I gather over ~4-5 years, to be fair) of perhaps a billion dollars. Maybe in my twilight years I'll get to read an account of this whole thing that makes any amount of sense. I'm really hoping it's not just one of those "yeah, we fucked up and couldn't admit it so we kept fucking up for quite a while longer, on the taxpayer dime and at the cost of immense human suffering" things we do sometimes. But at least it looks like, if it was a mistake, the UK and France were making the mistake with us. Which is... something, I suppose.

[EDIT EDIT] Looks like Jordan and Israel played a key role in tipping the scales for getting Obama to agree to that early CIA op, and the Saudis were also participants once it got going. Sigh. The usual players, for US intervention in that region, I suppose. Israel and the Saudis make sense, but I'm not well-read on Jordanian foreign relations. I'd suppose they're just broadly Saudi-aligned, and I know they're relatively friendly with the Israelis.

I don’t doubt the intention and I don’t blame those people either; if you work really hard and still live in poverty it’s only logical to move to a country where you can live reasonably on handouts. It’s just not sustainable.

The statistics are clear, these are just facts.
Indeed, the science of socialism makes some fair critiques of society but has a track record of poor predictive power. It totally failed to predict the economic prosperity of liberal democracies in the late 20th century, and the economic collapse of the Soviet Union. But I'm sure they've got things figured out now..
interesting, but where is all that "prosperity" going in the US then? the one percent?

what i imply is that its not like an ordinary US citizen has 2x better quality of life than an ordinary EU citizen, I would strongly suggest that is far from the truth as i worked and lived in both US and EU and earned top dollar in both

How do you overcome subjectivity in identifying the box? Do you interpret price action differently based on environmental factors? Is there a risk of identifying a false breakout of the box?
Thank you so much for sharing. This makes a lot of sense right now.
I wonder what the limits are to such a universal codec. From what I've gathered about synaesthesia (e.g. from V.S. Ramachandran, or Galton earlier), it varies quite significantly between persons. I believe it's said that some 3% of people have aphantasia for instance. That means entire modalities would be excluded for some in a latent space glyph language. Unless, I suppose, one could find ways of stimulating the synaesthetic connections artificially too.

I understand Drepper pretty much considers string.h a lost cause, and I can’t fault him for that.

It’s rather that POSIX decided to add the strl functions, so adding them (and verifying their semantics) is a necessity.
Those are some interesting detailed examples, yes. The construction methods are still known for many patterns, however:

The title is misleading. The Eurozone does not include the entire EU - there are quite a few countries with their own currencies(notably Czechia, Poland, Romania), which coincidentally saw some of the highest growths in the region during the last two decades.

Meanwhile some Eurozone countries like Greece, Italy and Spain actually saw a decline.

Hard not to draw such conclusions when your set includes all the troubled countries and none of the fast growing ones.

Your comment answers itself: it’s nothing inherent to macOS that needs AV scan - it’s the company policy, often driven by external compliance requirements and perhaps a lack of understanding - that leads to the outcome where multiple redundant AV mechanisms end up in your machine.
> Mythology and fantasy are drastically different things. Meaning, purpose, context, are very important for understanding art, of course.

They are literally the same. Fantasy is just modern mythology and most fantasy is rooted in ancient historical tales or historical events. The Kree-Skrull war for example was based on WWII USA vs Japan.

Old mythological stories and religions are based on historical events and switched to entertain. It's almost a certainty that Ramanaya never happened but Indian invasions of Sri Lanaka did happen etc.

> Almost nobody who loves zombie films, for example, has the first clue what zombies meant when first devised.

> To YOU because you are probably a middle-aged man who is not supposed to have time to watch everything so that all the tropes are familiar to you. Watch less media, focus on other things.

Then why is it that when I watch older movies I haven't seen before, they seem fresh to me? Maybe the problem is the writers today think as you do, and have contempt for media-literate people who aren't totally naive to tropes.
Even as a math graduate, I still think calculus is a bit weird.

The idea of successive approximations for a slope culminating in a dy/dx term -- where we say dx (really the denominator of the limit definition) is obviously not zero, but is also smaller than any given real number. It's not clear that numbers should work like that.

Pile on that calculus courses (at least in the US) tend to care more about deriving interesting trigonometric/exponential/polynomial/whatever derivatives once using the limit definition and proceed to have students essentially memorize the derivation tricks for the remaining 90% of the course, and it can easily end up being overwhelming.

I've been using Linux for over two decades, it has gotten so much easier over the years. I think the biggest consistent issues I still have is wayland/nvidia/amd, capture cards, modern suspend (modern standby/S0ix) and non-existent professional 2d/video/audio authoring (no real photoshop/illustrator/premiere/avid etc. replacement).

But there is so much else that just works nowadays that was a nightmare 20 years ago, the blutooth stack has gotten way better, audio is crazy good at this point (pipewire), gaming is incredible (all thanks to valve/proton), blender of course and moving so much stuff to the modern web (as well as electron) has opened up so much for linux by accident (like video conferencing, finally a decent office suite with google docs, figma, etc.). Of course the development/sysops story has always been better than anywhere else since everything is Linux on the server already anyway so its always been very friction less.
> I think maybe what he is talking about is equivalent to what we usually called “mathematics”.

I'm anticar.

Most people are too negligent/inept to safely operate them and there is genuinely no need for private vehicles if adequate infrastructure is put in place.

More people die due to automobiles every year than from cigarette induced cancer, and that's without addressing the elephant in the room of misattribution to second hand smoke that which is actually/more reasonably explained by chronic car emission exposure (take a look at that stuff, it's insane).

We don't actually need cars, people just Want them too kuch to do the right things to protect our children.
ya so notice the pattern before anyone else and extract money by filling the inefficiency. this isn't a profound insight, the nature of alpha is that it's temporary and limited. doesn't mean it doesn't exist and you can't take advantage of it - as long as you're better than everyone else (faster, smarter, cheat-ier). tbh it's just like entrepreneurship - starting a business will attract competitors. but you can just outcompete them.

The license will be GPL then. Thanks!

Risk management.

No.

> Is there a risk of identifying a false breakout of the box?

Yes. That where risk management come to rescue.
If my employees are more productive, I need fewer employees to produce the same number of widgets. If this happens across all industries, the price of labor goes down because there's more labor and fewer jobs. Historically, between lower prices driving more demand, other workers driving the productivity gains (maybe they make robots for factories), and new opportunities for workers, we still have full employment, but the long-standing economic question is what if they don't, and there genuinely isn't enough work for a lot of people.
> I actually think it's the opposite, I always see Americans getting really snarky about Europe, I could go back and find plenty of examples but I have better things to do.

I'm responding to a (one of the many) cases of people being strangely upset and irrational about a simple fact about the US doing better in this one metric recently. There is no "opposite" about it, I never said it does not happen the other way around, I'm questioning why it is happening this way around in this thread. And again that is making people upset and bringing up other unrelated things, which is quite ironic really.

> Personally I think average Americans have a hard time imaging a world where there is more to life than money.

Personally I think it's sad that so many "educated and enlightened" people are okay with making vile accusations and generalizations about others they know nothing about.

I know a bunch of Americans and almost all are warm, friendly, generous. Some very driven, very few who struck me as being all about money. I feel sad that many have been to feel ashamed of themselves by this kind of casual bullying.

> Ultimately whenever I see these "murica" centric posts, I remember them flying in emergency medical supplies from China and everybody being upset about how the worlds greatest super power didn't have enough supplies for their own medical staff.

I don't quite understand what you're getting at. You're upset by the fact that the US economy measured by GDP grew much faster than the EU recently, but you take comfort from the fact that China manufactures a lot of things that other countries buy such as medical equipment and there were shortages of various goods during Covid. I don't know what to make of that but I'm sure there's some interesting psychology behind it.
Is there a good source I can read about this?
That's exactly what the PPP adjustment is supposed to capture. If a dollar buys half as much energy in the U.S. as the USD/EUR conversion does in Europe, that adjusts the EU PPP for the energy sector up by 2x. (Not exactly a great example, Europe has its own energy crisis.)

I'm surprised at the number of people who are confidently arguing against mrb - they're exactly correct here. The point of PPP adjustments is to factor out the effect of having a strong currency, and the USD's status as reserve currency is exactly why the US GDP has been overtaking the EU. Adjust for what a dollar actually buys you domestically and the picture is far more muddled.
Yup, other Europeans laughing at America while Fascism has reached new highs on the old continent is the real joke
> About 45k people died in car accidents in the US in 2022, which if treated as it’s own category outside of accidents would be just outside the top 10 in causes of death. 2x more death than firearms.

> Lots of things have externalities, very few things have as severe externalities as cars.

> Said differently, go to a sporting event of 30k people. Statistically, five of them will die in a car accident this year (45k/300mn =0.015% or about 1 in 6500).

> Edit: I guess it’s not fashionable to cite statistics on here. I get it, the drivers won the debate a long time ago, but at least articulate why your disagreement with words.

You're being downvoted because you are attempting to mislead with statistics.

The numbers for 2017 (prior to the pandemic, which skews the numbers) are from https://www.healthline.com/health/leading-causes-of-death#he.... They don't separate out vehicle accidents, so I'll use your 45k number.

1. The leading cause of deaths is heart disease, more common amongst people who smoke (very few) and obese people (very many) = 635k people, or about 14x more people die due to heart disease than motor vehicle accidents.

2. Accidental deaths = 161k. IOW, you're 3.5x more likely to die from a non-vehicle accident than from a vehicle accident.

You know which type of deaths match the numbers for auto accidents? Suicides!

All-in-all, that 45k number you give is almost statistical noise: vehicles account for a mere 1.8% of deaths in the US.

> That's why you can even find C++ libraries use this idiom even though C++ obviously has `private`. It's about having a stable, opaque API.

In C++ this is a popular idiom and a standard technique covered by multiple references under the name pointer to implementation (pimpl).

This is not a C thing beyond the point that C has pointers.
Yes that's the problem. People often work exclusively for a single employer but call this contracting because supposedly it's a deal between two companies (a real company, and a one-person shop). But no, that's still an employment contract, this is determined by the nature of the relationship, not by specific words written in the contract or rituals such as issuing an invoice.
Posts don't get marked as "flagged" or "dead" on the first "flag" by someone: I ain't sure of the threshold, and I am merely guessing, but trying to tell you not to bother with this — it doesn't really matter, HN has some non-transparent rules and we all accept to live by them believing they are right in spirit most of the time.
People use arduinos in real professional prototypes, yes. Some prototypes are held together with pieces of string inside.

Edit: if you want an example industry, the one I can remember is a bean to cup coffee machine. I guess having multiple small systems that need controlling in consumer appliances is a good fit for something like an Arduino

Interesting. It seems to be possible to skip the check for vehicles worthy of preservation. It requires the vehicle to not be modified (original design), which seems to be the case there, but also the safety equipment must function satisfactorily, which may be up for debate there.

- otherwise occasionally when the use does not cause undue danger or inconvenience to other traffic.

Genuinely American cinema always seemed like almost pure entertainment to me. There is not that much greatness or artistic accomplishment, but there seemed to be craft. I mean, there are shows that are more then that, but overall American production was rarely focused on great accomplishments beyond "make it fun and make good guys win".

I bought and old one second hand a few years ago and it is actually nice; bulky but light enough and really unbreakable. So when backpacking it is a good companion that can be used as a little flat table, can be used in the heat, cold and in the rain, you can drop drinks on it, drop it and beat someone’s head it before getting to work. The only real disadvantage is the battery life, so I carry a spare which works for me when on trips.
Cool. But what do the HSMs, auditing, etc, etc, etc that the BRs (https://cabforum.org/wp-content/uploads/CA-Browser-Forum-BR-...) and root store policies require cost on top of “just some bytes”?

FreeFreeFreeCerts (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=233458) or Honest Achmed’s certificate authority (https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=647959) won’t make it in today’s world, nor yesterday’s.

Let’s Encrypt’s financials are public and they aren’t running it off a singular Raspberry PI, nor anything like it - because they can’t; nor would it responsible to, at least on, say, a HSM or key seperation level.

Not to say, though, that traditional CAs aren’t rent seeking bloated greedy pieces of shit - because they absolutely are. I’m happy Let’s Encrypt found the funding and will (and the all important cross-sign) to take off and curb stomp the incumbent CAs around a bit. I still cringe every time I see an OV certificate in the wild.
That's a pretty blanket statement without taking context into account. (i.e. it might be the right approach for you, but it's not the correct approach for everyone).

If your service is spread over hundreds of servers then a cattle style naming convention makes sense. However, if you've got just 5 servers then pet style naming convention can be far more beneficial.

e.g. if you've got 5 servers and they're named after hobbits then when on sysadmin asks "What's going on with Frodo?" the other sysadmins will immediately know not only the server but what's running on there, if they've recently made any changes, etc. If those servers were named in a more cattle style approach then the question becomes "What's going on with DCPR002?", which is a lot harder for a sysadmin to parse and relate to the server.
Or even W3C's own website
It's not a criticism. I'm just pointing it out. For good or bad, it is what it is. There are two sides to it. For anyone familiar with system theory, this was the inevitable end game of the web.

However, the web also has a terrible bloat/legacy issue it refuses to deal with. So sooner or later, a new minimal platform will grow from within it, the way the web started in the 90s as the then humble browser. And the web will be replaced.
> I actively encourage my developers to clean up the code they'll be working on, otherwise you're just piling tech debt upon existing tech debt.

While I broadly agree on the boy-scout rule, it can severely throw out (already poor) estimates.

It shouldn't be a rule ("always clean up the shit you see when working on something else"), it should be optional ("If it doesn't mess up your original goal, clean up as much as is possible within the estimated time").
