I don't know if you intended to sound as patronising and passive aggressive as you did. I mention it in case you hadn't intended sounding like an ass.

I'm afraid I may be matching your tone here...

>Have you tried getting out a piece of paper and a pencil and making your own map?

No, I use a better map that other people made. My comment specifically links to it.

>Or do you need a developer to do everything for you?

It would be nice if the developer made their own in-game map and Compendium better, yes.

I am incapable of re-writing Nintendo's own map and compendium code. Even if I were technically capable, I couldn't sign it so it wouldn't run on an unmodded Switch anyway. So fixing the issue properly is indeed something I cannot DIY and would require Nintendo for.

And while it's not an explicit "need" for me, not everyone has the same set of needs. That's a thing about accessibility. It would be a really nice QoL improvement for the game though.

Remembering where everything is on the sprawling multi-level world is obviously an issue that even Nintendo recognised. Some Compendium items do have location info in the Compendium. But not all items in the Compendium though, coz it's a shit implementation.

Is "remembering where shit is" a core mechanic that brings you joy or otherwise enhances the game? One would assume not, but it's not a rhetorical question, please feel free to answer.

You suggested the solution to a half-assed map and compendium is "use pen and paper", instead of asking, "why did the devs half-ass the map and compendium they put in the game?". Do you not think you may be looking at this from the wrong angle?
90-95% of programmers I've worked with can't "grok" asynchronous or multi-threaded programming, and when forced to write async code it is littered with bugs.

ChatGPT doesn't need to find 100% of bugs in 100% of code out there.

Think of it as a "better linter". It's cheap, and finding just 50% of bugs would be an enormous step up for quality in most code bases.
It depends. Sometimes you have no choice but to deploy to an old machine with back-leveled tls libraries, and static linking can save the day.

Of course that tends to be the exception (hopefully).
It is well documented that marijuana can cause psychosis in some people that are predisposed for it. I know quite a few people, my self included, that started using cannabis way more often after it was legalized.

I think it's reasonable too assume that legalization of a formerly forbidden substance will increase overall use of that substance. I also think that it is reasonable to assume that increased use of a substance will increase the amount of people suffering the potential side effects.

That said, I think social media, the economy, the pandemic, pollution, and the war on terror drugs have done way more harm than legalized weed.
Omg,

This is a bit too edgy.
Given how The Google seems to still set the standard for everything, should this be new information to us?
People who even have health insurance are still going into bankruptcy when a severe illness like stroke or cancer befalls them. The US medical system still puts people into poverty due to medical circumstances every day.
> It doesn’t make sense for every level of American to be meaningfully wealthier and higher income than 20 years ago and yet also be suffering…

Maybe optimizing for a high and perpetually growing GDP is not in fact conducive to the mental health of those who generate it. But in any case, I’m not sure that it’s true that every stratum of US citizen has experienced income growth relative to inflation. Thomas Piketty’s analysis of US national income data points to a decline on the bottom end - a group that experiences disproportionately higher rates of mortality and morbidity.
> It doesn’t make sense for every level of American to be meaningfully wealthier and higher income than 20 years ago and yet also be suffering (in multiple ways!) more as well.

In what sense is every level of American meaningfully wealthier? Only the top quintile has higher income than they did 50 years ago, middle and lower income people have all stayed stagnant in both income and wealth.
>His point is that Americans are broadly wrong when we condemn secessionists as traitors. According to our own founding document.

And he'd be wrong. They betrayed their nation, the United States of America. What's more, the Declaration of Independence didn't found anything.

It was a declaration of rebellion with broad, well understood at the time, political arguments designed to rile folks up against George III.

The U.S.'s first "founding document" was the Articles of Confederation and Perpetual Union[0], approved by the Second Continental Congress in 1777 and ratified by all 13 colonies (cum states) by 1781, followed by its replacement in 1789 by the US Constitution.

While the Declaration does lay out political arguments for secession, it has no legal force. Rather, the Constitution is the supreme law of the land[1]. What clause in that document grants the several states the right to secede? I'll save you the effort. It ain't there.

You can absolutely make the philosophical argument that a society can, and in some cases, should, create a separate political entity. As was elucidated in Robert Heinlein's lunar retelling of the American Revolution in The Moon is a Harsh Mistress[2].

But that's a philosophical argument, not a legal one. That said, there's nothing stopping you or anyone else from advocating/organizing secession from the Unites States (or the relevant political entity wherever you might be), but governments tend to frown on that sort of thing.

As such, no matter the malicious motives and/or provocations of said government, if you attempt to overthrow its authority, you are a traitor (or a 'freedom fighter', I'm not picky about labels). But you are perfectly able to do so. But things might not end so well. Governments tend to be less pleasant to those who take up arms against them than they might be.

As the Confederacy[3] found out, during the American Civil War.

Relatedly, Kermit Roosevelt[4] persuasively argues[5] that the members of the Confederacy were the true inheritors of the political arguments embodied by the Declaration of Independence, not the Union. His point being that our nation as it exists is the product of the evolution of our constitutional order, and not simply the natural rights arguments laid out in the Declaration.

It's definitely an interesting find if you can repeatably get it to spit out apparent training examples.
"code coming soon"
I really really hope this code will be ready is setup and run. My experience with ML/AI research GitHub code is pretty bad. Most of the time you have to guess the right dependencies (and versions).
I don’t know that I buy that. People that are into cars, and buy a very specific car because it’s their dream car they’ve been seeing in recent Fast and Furious films, sure maybe them. Kids that just acquired the new freedom of being able to go wherever they want, sure probably them too. But the average person sitting in traffic to get to some specific destination? Now that I don’t buy for one minute. We’re all just angrily thinking about how the other people on the road are slowing _me_ down, or endangering _my_ life not paying attention to the road.
Sure thing, I updated my profile with my real email. I certainly don't expect you to remember me, but you might remember my buddy Atish, and I hope you know that you left a massive impression on both him and me. As kids fresh out of high school, you were (and frankly, you still are) the guy we looked up to. Thanks for being you.
^ I don't think professional plumbers and accountants exchange services in kind for a living, last time I checked people use this thing called currency.

and this makes the zero sum, since the money plumber pays accountant, is the money he cannot spend on other things like groceries and vise versa.
I don’t know that these issues are super frequent, but the fact iCloud is directly integrated seamlessly into the user directory and across devices without futzing is nice. Dropbox I found to be relative expensive and not well integrated. As an extension of the OS, when enabled I cloud manages a lot of the user home directory without a “drop box” folder. This is important especially for people who aren’t particularly interested in computers and just want them to work. The fact there’s a special place for loading files across devices and backup is cognitive load 99% of the universe doesn’t want. Even myself who is fine with the cognitive load found that the lack of fuss with moving things around and just always working is convenient enough that despite having at various times Dropbox / box / others that I just used iCloud. Finally there just isn’t any material advantage to Dropbox over iCloud that I could find. While things delaying their sync or whatever might be annoying occasionally, you can unstick it with small gestures like creating a directory and deleting it, but you can also achieve this by simply waiting longer - which is what most people do. In the very rare case that I am trying to tightly synchronize files between devices and it’s stuck, it’s mildly annoying, but the continuous advantage of the tight and seamless integration with the user directory is a constant advantage. I suspect almost all the times it’s stuck I didn’t even realize it
If it's counted as an accident rather than a suicide then the numbers are still high.

If it's counted as a suicide rather than an accident then maybe. I would then ask who is lying.

If it's faking deaths then that's the coroner system which you would have to question.
This is something which I think has really hurt Ada adoption, even though in theory it is now available in open-source. I tried to evaluate it for some embedded hobby project a while ago and I could not figure out whether the open-source options supported both SPARK and cross-compiling to a cortex m3, and if so how on earth I was supposed to get ahold of the right version and use it. I think this may have improved, but I think there are a huge number of potential Ada users who have written it off because of this (even with an admittedly quite cursory browse of the links below I get the idea that this works, but still no concrete idea of how: lots of examples of code for embedded systems but none I could find of how its built!).
True, I just think it's more likely Google IT provides external hard drives for extra capacity on request than that they block it. (At least for most roles, ones it's not also air-gapping!) I may well be wrong, no insider knowledge, just my outsider impression of the company.
In which case the skew is positive.
The world is so much more than these few tech giants where everybody at HN works.
i guess you use what you have, and don't use what you don't have, but i don't really know when i've ever thought let me see what happened after that branch was merged into future.

I do have a simple script that will list what branches were merged into the current branch in git. That is useful, so being built in, in Fossil is useful i guess.

My gripe with Fossil, is not technical, it is really just who uses it? How much support does it get. When will it wither and die? Maybe that is an invalid concern on my part. But that is way more important to me than any technical issues raised here.
I'm just repeating a commonly held belief, hence the upvotes. It's not as if I came up with this opinion out of thin air.

>Your feelings, whatever they are, that lead you to your opinions, political principles, or ethics, are inherently immune to being invalidated by others.

You don't know me. You can't possibly know something like this from one comment on the internet. It seems that others have said this to you in the past, and you are just parroting it to me.

Best wishes, much love

That's odd, because that's not how browser zoom works. I checked in both Firefox & Chromium, and if you zoom in, the margins do get smaller & smaller and eventually go away completely when you reach mobile-mode where the text is edge to edge. (Are you sure you didn't do something like enable "Zoom text only" in your browser settings? That it works 'properly' on HN doesn't mean much because HN uses weird table layout for everything.)
Mine were removed when I was in the 9th or 10th grade. They were impacted and had to be cut out in pieces. It was an outpatient procedure but I was under anesthesia.

I don't remember having any particular pain or anything beforehand, I was just told I was getting them out. There was no discussion about whether I wanted to do that or not. I had already had braces at that point, and they were causing my teeth to shift again, so maybe that had something to do with it.

Feeling back there with my tongue now, I think there's room for another tooth on each upper side, but there is no room for more on the lower jaw. This makes sense with what I remember being told, that they were 'growing in sideways'. In a scenario like this I wonder if they are concerned about being able to keep those very back teeth clean, in addition to the cosmetic issue with movement of other teeth.
There's some parallel between steel tools and bike frames with regards to things moving to Taiwan. Both things like wrenches/ratchets/sockets and steel bike frames moved largely to Taiwan 20+ years ago.

Guess what? Taiwan got really good at making both. So in the tool community, you have lots of comparisons drawn between the US and Taiwan and China, with the narrative that as far as Asian manufactured tools, the "good stuff" comes out of Taiwan, and the not-usually-as-good out of China.

There's a similar narrative on bike frames. The interesting thing is that Taiwan didn't just get good at steel bike frames, but on the aluminum and carbon fiber successors as well.

I would frankly rather Craftsman be a sustainable brand manufactured out of Taiwan with a warranty and continuity of product to back it, but unfortunately the collapse of Sears and the subsequent trading of the Craftsman label has made it more of a liability.
That's why I said outside of cities. Yes, many cities are absolutely miserable to drive in, but scenic country roads are often an absolute delight to drive on.
My father started experiencing short to medium term memory problems about ten years ago. Then he found contract engineering work, and his brain started firing on all cylinders again.

My mom's dementia kicked in very shortly after retirement, after a brief period of very bad depression.

Work -- even (especially!) if it's fun work -- is a core part of human existence. Protestant work ethic or not, we don't do well with excessive idleness.
Using ascetic instead of aesthetic could be a very clever pun.

Do you have a source about California mental health spending being cut?

Anytime i read a comment about spending being cut or austerity it never materializes when I look it up. I blame the media that reports "cuts in the future anticipated spending growth" as "cuts". So basically someone said spending on X will grow Y percent a year and someone else comes in and changes Y to slightly lower.

Sure enough:

> The chart below shows that over the last 10 years, state budget expenditures on health have increased nearly 8% per year, while spending on education, transportation, and natural resources has increased at less than half that rate.

It could kill the tooth bud before it develops into a tooth.
>Given labor costs and labor shortages, expect even more

I cant accept this. Labour cost is as cheap as it has been, as it can be seen in those inflation vs salary increase historic charts.

Similarly with labour shortage: population is just growing and growing, what labour shortage?

I think reality is grimmer: companies are unwilling to pay humans a fair share for their labour, as it happened in the past. Nowadays companies prefer crappy cheap AI with 1/10th of the cost instead of humans.

It's depressing. We need a) steep government taxes to companies that do this so that part of those savings go to society, b) UBI paid by those taxes so that people can keep living a dignified life.

Noice!

Did you employer give you a spec-'d out computer/workstation too? I don't even know how you hook up ISDN equipment, but I know an SGI Indy had it built in.. ~1993.
You'd love NixOS. Gives you the flexibility of dynamic libraries with the isolation and full dependency bundling per app and less janky than snap or flatpak.
doesn't perforce only allow one branch per repo? Or is that something they addressed.
You cannot merely wave aside that your proposed solution is a solution that also already evidenced to have caused mental illness on a broad, demographic-specific scale, in the name of solving mental illness! That's patently ridiculous.
Teslas too, and the ones built in China have a better reputation for quality than the US ones.
Binaries aren't source code.

It sounds like you want a versioned file system, not source control.

Git is a beautiful solution for its use case.
> git, for all its issues, is not bundling the kitchen sink

In my experience, installing git on most Linux distros pulls in a bunch of perl dependencies
having been the guy who did that: i assure you, doing it is An Issue.
Wish I had more upvotes for this sentiment.
Usernames and passwords are effectively obsolete in China.

It's a combo of:

* All accounts need to be tied to an identity, generally in the form of a Mainland Chinese phone number which is linked in the backend to a Government ID/Foreign Passport

* Mobile first development where mobile is assumed to be the primary or only way to interact with most services.

* Overwhelming dominance of two 3rd party identity providers (WeChat and Alipay)

* WeChat mini-apps taking over most of the small use cases where authentication is baked in.

The usual flow is that you sign up with a phone number as your username and authenticate with SMS 2FA. Because it's a mobile app, it doesn't have to deal with web bullshit and actually remembers you across sessions spanning months. To reauthenticate on a different device, you just enter your phone number and use the same SMS 2FA to login.

The web flow for a lot of sites is that they require you to open the logged in mobile app and scan a QR code to login on the web.

A few legacy sites like Taobao still support password login but they're by far not the majority.

It's interesting how the writer avoids the issue of homelessness, as if that's an unshakeable pillar of reality.

They even touch on the prison population in the U.S. -- comparing a figure from their childhood (when times were good) to today: "The number of inmates in the U.S. in 1955 was 185,000; today, that figure is 1,900,000." -- while gliding easily over any further details or uncomfortable truths about that, presumably that increase is entirely people who would/should be locked up in asylums instead.

The term 'asylum' implies refuge, yes. It also refers to actual places that "were popular because they [... relieved] families of their most burdensome members."

Places that largely ended with a legacy of being "torture chambers where icepick lobotomies, electric shock, sterilization and solitary confinement turned humans into zombies."

The presented model of success (the Worcester Recovery Center in Massachusetts) is described as something completely unlike the article's own description of asylums.

Note: the title on the article is the assertive 'It’s Time to Bring Back Asylums', not phrased as the question it is on HN ('Time to Bring Back Asylums?').
Is that "$90 million factory" number correct? Seems rather low, I'd guess that just the robots alone to run an automated factory of any real scale would cost an order of magnitude more than that.
Some discussion, ironically on English Wikipedia itself: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_(techni...
Slight tangent: it bugs me when people say "it goes against the Unix philosophy" as though The Unix Philosophy were some kind of religious text. Not everything should be a pluggable Unix executable, and Fossil making non-Unixy choices doesn't reflect poorly on it. They just chose a different philosophy.
It's also not out of the blue, or as if I came up with it.
Git actually is bundling a lot of stuff you probably don't realize. Run 'git instaweb' for example and it will spin up a local CGI server and perl CGI script to give a very simple web UI: https://git-scm.com/docs/git-instaweb Fossil isn't much different in core functionality here.

There is a ton of email client integration and functionality in git too that most people who only use GitHub probably have absolutely no idea exists or even why it's there. Stuff like sending email patches right from git: https://git-scm.com/docs/git-send-email
Well, for one thing we are all fatter, and the prevalence of depression in obese people has been found to be much higher than in healthy weight people. We are also more sedentary.

For another, most of us spend a lot of time on social media, the usage of which, at least for some demographics, has been strongly linked to depression. Also, due to screen usage and even LED lights interfering with melatonin production, we are getting one hour less sleep on average. That is actually an unreported crisis if you look into the effects of losing even one hour of sleep a night consistently.

Then there is the deterioration of social structures and "third places" such as church, clubs, and other social gatherings, which are shown to reduce depression.
Because you might not have unrestricted rights to the files. The Netflix app allows me to download movies to watch offline but they're DRMed and rented to me by Netflix, not owned by me. A Netflix PWA would not allow for such feature.
We can't even bother inspecting our current critical inpatient mental crisis facilities. You cannot seriously claim we should be bringing back an evidently widely abused institution because we can regulate it, when we already have widely abused institutions that are not regulated.

We had, in our most respected medical facilities, numerous women subjected to extremely painful ovarian harvesting with no pain relief and it turns out a nurse was stealing pain medication from the patients for YEARS. You cannot seriously suggest bringing back yet another widely abused institution when our current institutions already abuse people to a horrific, systemic extent, as if it will solve anything.
"Zoom text only" was enabled. I checked a freshly installed Firefox and that is not the default so I am unsure how it was enabled, but it was. Thank you so much for helping me solve this!
That is a different conclusion to what you stated in your first comment. You've retreated to a motte ('The US is restricting transfer of chip technology to China for strategic purposes, a large part of which is due to AI and military applications of fast compute'), from your bailey ("The only reason the US wishes to defend Taiwan is because of the military use of the chips produced there"). The comment disagreeing was only disagreeing with the latter statement and contains nothing contradicting the first.
