People were decrepit at age in the previous century. Long-life wasn't something enjoyable.

But today everything is toxic, there is still leaded gas being sprayed in the air everywhere by propeller craft. Fracking fumes poison the water and air up to 50 miles downwind. All the freshwater fishing is toxic in the USA, there are industrial zones pollution like crazy right over where people live in density. All the food and milk (even breast milk) has forever chemicals in them now.

None of that toxicity existed previous century.

Making it to 50 or 60 without getting some kind of cancer or other fatal diseases in another generation will be impossible. And even if it's not a fatal disease there are plenty to make life miserable every day.
I mean… I try and include some intent in my commits, and online comments.
On the same basis, most home routers are powerful enough to run a basic webserver, and they are much more likely to have a consistent internet connection. They probably aren't behind CG-NAT, and most of them have Dynamic DNS support even if they don't have a static IP.
Since we are already off topic, here is one more -- a certain government wanted graduate students to pay taxes on their "tuition" remission back in 2017, which could be hundreds to thousands of dollars, out of $20k-30k annual salary. Thank god it did not happen.
>The “living wage” argument is really an argument that the government should turn over the responsibility of running the social safety net to private businesses (e.g. Harvard must pay a single mother more—enough to level past food stamps).

While I understand your argument and it's not factually wrong, it misses a few key details - chiefly the one that private businesses continue to try to lower costs by any and every means necessary, including seeking out and taking advantage of cheaper labor, and by participating in regulatory capture. Both of these are highly counter-productive to the overall health of the country's economy. If private businesses insist on being able to pollute, engage in anticomptetive practices, corrupt our lawmakers - all to ensure that they make more money, we have to as a society insist that yes, they MUST pay more to their laborers, especially if the businesses insist that they continue to pay their C-Suite an inordinate amount of money for no particular reason.

(This is my own channel), but I recently made a video on Objective C calling conventions specifically for Reverse Engineers that you might enjoy, with more iOS videos incoming:

As for modern RE resources, I can recommend Jonathan Levin's series of books on MacOS and iOS internals as a good reference. It's probably the newest information you are going to be able to get on iOS/mac internals outside of apple.

Again, you are underestimating users. They will work around errors and can use some quite hideously broken systems to get what they need done, without any support at all sometimes. Hiding error messages just makes that a much more frustrating process. (put another way, the user probably can't fix the error occurring if they just do the exact same thing again, but they can often find another way to do what they want without triggering the error, and for this it helps to know what the error actually is)

I feel like if I can get it working reliably I might have fun setting up a website to make them for $1 each or something.

Right now though the process I have is to make 16 at a time with various settings and seeds and then run my phone over them all and see which ones the camera can read as QR codes. Finding one that is both nice to look at and reads reliably is rare.
Here's The Lancet in Feb 2020:

> We stand together to strongly condemn conspiracy theories suggesting that COVID-19 does not have a natural origin.

https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6...

Nothing in that condemnation is limited to claims of deliberate release. That article contributed to a false scientific consensus, which social media operators used to justify banning any account that suggested SARS-CoV-2 might have arisen from a research-related accident. For example, Facebook did so until May 2021.
Depending on the state they allow to deduce a room partially and during corona they were a lot more tolerant.
That latter paragraph is odd. It seems that the reporter is mentioning average rent in Boston, and I wouldn’t expect the HGSU president to use that as a benchmark: Boston is an unusual place for a Harvard grad student to live.

Perfectly nice Somerville 2BR units appear to be available for a bit above $2k/mo, and they quite a bit more conveniently located to Harvard than most of Boston is.
So you pick the most extreme cases (hand washing, round earth) and equate them to "COVID is not a lab leak, case closed, you are censored if you try to argue it!"

The article lays out many cases where "consensus" was, indeed, a political construct and not really a scientific consensus at all.
The problem in this discussion is that you don't have an understanding of the concepts involved. You haven't properly understood the LIGO experiments and you clearly know nothing of general relativity. There really is no point in continuing this further.
> For example, the standard model of physics explains nearly everything that we can observe, whilst we also know that there are some things that it can't.

Looks like it’s an optimization to avoid boxing integers that can be stored inline. So two runtime representations for the same type.
Hmm, that is an interesting parallel. I think it misses the mark somehow though.

Idk why people don’t like the question, I’m actually looking for a developed model/ paradigm around this concept. No sense reinventing the wheel.
Another +1, I left a startup over exactly this, all the managers, directors, and VP of engineering were IC engineers maybe 2 years prior. It was a shame, because I really enjoyed my role at that company in general, but ended up opting to leave after getting a really terrible leader.
That's fair - I mean that's what I concluded as well but my point was that I think adding in the bull is more distracting than just: "Car accident, I'm ok".

But, thinking back now if I were to arrive at the scene and not have known about the bull beforehand that'd be quite a shock, so I think I've changed my mind on this one!
Lots of people have affairs with people that they can see professionally, or openly in a platonic setting. So the only part of the relationship that has to be really hidden is the intimacy.

Personally though I think people will still choose hotels over the back problems that come with doing it in the backseat like a teenager.
It doesn’t matter in the sense that we just had to deal with the virus, no matter what.

But it does matter with regard to public trust in science and government.

Others have also pointed out that it matters because of it being a potential spark for racism (and that’s a reasonable concern no matter if you think the response wrong or right).

Also, I remember some concern that it may be a bio-weapon. And, although slight far fetched, it would be consistent. Ironically, I suspect the intent was to discount the possibility to prevent panic. (Though they were happy to spread lower grade fear, so go figure…)
How? Set up your own record label and implement your wish list of better terms. If you're reading hacker news, there's a good chance you can do most of the coding for free/stock/spec. Then you can be like totally cool about piracy and drink all of the kool aid about how piracy is just a different form of promotion.

My guess is that you'll come to the same conclusion as me: piracy destroys marketplaces. It forces the honest people to subsidize the free riders. If it were about something like food, I can understand a Jean-Val-Jean argument, but can anyone say with a straight face that they're stealing these fresh cuts just so their baby can listen to ccool music?

I think you'll also come to a grudging recognition of just how expensive it can be to market music. I've always thought the percentages demanded by record companies were outrageous, but when I tried to duplicate their services on my own I quickly learned where the money goes.

The IA is on a crash course to destroy the livlihood of artists, writers and other content creators. Don't ask me why. It doesn't make sense. They provide a nice service for society but now they're out on some crusade.
Don't feel bad. Working/developing with real hardware seems to me a legitimate case where wfh might not work.

This does not mean that the constraints you have apply to everyone and most places that are forcing RTO are actually optimizing for other things like CRE.
It is "satire", because no one actually talks like this on the left wing. Its very obviously a right winger who thinks this is what the left sounds like.
Florida is going to be pretty turbulent in the nearish future I think. Theres already a looming insurance crisis as more and more providers pull out and/or raise rates. A serious hurricane could trigger some big price movements across the state I think.
Not sure why you're so insistent on this when Pulumi folks themselves on this post have said that they contribute back up to the AWS provider source repo (1).

Maybe not all their providers utilize Terraform, but it was definitely how their product started out. When you run Pulimi using their AWS provider and get errors at runtime, some of those are verbatim Terraform errors.

Their docs and site is very clear to muddle this connection but if you ever used their API, you'd know this.

But it doesn’t exist. For any task the number of contact points is almost always fairly small. Just because the possible N might be large most are occluded by lack of relevance to any specific task.

I would note that the author categorically says it’s not possible for a startup like environment to exist in a large company. That’s what I disagree with.
Also, the Objective-C Runtime reference[1]. About a decade ago, I learnt Objective-C in a day, by reading "The Objective-C Programming Language" and the Runtime Reference. It's such a beautiful and simple language, if you know C. I wish Swift were as simple and succinct. AFAIK, Objective-C++ is still the easiest way to bridge C++ code with Swift code. Knowledge of Objective-C is still relevant for anyone building apps that need to use C++ libraries.

If they can get the welfare system to take over, why have temporary grad students? Grad students with 20 years TA (or research) experience could really reduce the number of tenured professors they need to pay.
(not op) This is not hamstringing. It’s a matter of preference. I prefer jeans to a tie and a costume. I prefer Emacs and Vim to Vscode. I choose jobs that allow me to wear jeans and code in Emacs.
I'd argue that freedom of speech and freedom of access to that speech is -in fact- a role that is essential to democracy. This is true on both sides of the Atlantic.

If the opposing party(ies) have the power tell librarians to only show people materials in favor of their political position(s), then they can use that power to distort the truth and corrupt the vote, as happens in totalitarian countries.

This is one reason why it's important for libraries to be able to give a person access to all the materials they want access to, and not to distort or censor that access.

At best such things are decided through majority vote, at worst through some series of opaque bureaucratic bargaining.

And the proportion of mostly self-interested folks is quite high in both cases, or at least that's what many HN commentators allege to be the case.

> As software developers we learn technologies for breakfast.

> I have worked for years with PHP, Apache, Ansible and MySQL.

As much as I agree with your general sentiment that adaptation is one of our primary skills in this industry, these two statements combine to sound like parody. You “eat new technologies for breakfast” but PHP and Apache are in your short list of technologies you’ve used for years?

> And in 7 years I’ll be using something else.

And 7 years for your prediction of when you’ll be using a different technology is both oddly specific and oddly long.

Apologies if this comment actually is parody and it’s just flown over my head.
big companies have resources that give you reach (channels, marketing, human talent, legal, international presence, longer term investments) that you can never get with a smaller company.

being able to apply them effectively can really be really frustrating though. and there is always the danger that your two year development arc will be demolished by 'shifts in overall strategy' or 'belt tightening' or a reorg.

I used to say just this. And I did native Android dev for many years, but I gave it up around 2019.

When I finally checked out, native Android was a teetering mess of compatibility libraries, half-baked never-finished “new ways of doing things”, lacking docs, forever-bugs, and overall neglect. Simple ui would take you 5x as long as equivalent css and have you dropping down to low level drawing in frustration.

Back then, I felt native Android didn’t deserve my time or patience.

Has this picture improved?
Many had the same experience, including those who went without masks. I imagine social distancing + people self-quaranteening for all of those symptoms you mention can explain most of it.
Still not even comparable to the USSR or the Nazis.
My impression is that Guix is sort of that, just written by a different group. Disclaimer: I haven’t used Guix yet, but I’d like to.

Oh, it was perfectly understandable to me too, even though I am not a native English speaker (but I have been told by native speakers that my English is quite good).

"Everybody" seems to be in the third person and "you" is in the second person, so I thought it was a mismatch (since in the same sentence, etc.), and so was ungrammatical.

Let anyone tell me if I am wrong, would like to know.

And see my reply to sbuk, it was just in fun.
I've seen this in science as well. Analysts get promoted to managers and managing is a completely different skill set that involves social skills, communication, empathy- all people skills that they didn't need to be a good analyst. They were promoted because they were good at being an analyst- meticulous, quiet, just do their job and don't interact with others. Unfortunately almost none of this carries over to being a good manager. I wished many times that they just hired people with management skills from some field completely outside of science, a manager doesn't really need to know the intricacies of the work to do their job well.

I'm wondering about this as well, actually this weekend been doing Flutter 'Test Drive' of their tutorial and experience was not that great. I'm still forcing my brain to parse this complex structure with very simple widget structure from their samples.

Its Flutter:

```
class MyHomePage extends StatelessWidget {
@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {
var appState = context.watch<MyAppState>();
var pair = appState.current;

return Scaffold(
body: Center(
child: Column(
mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
children: [
BigCard(pair: pair),
SizedBox(height: 10),
ElevatedButton(
onPressed: () => appState.getNext(),
child: Text('Next'),
),
],
),
),
);
}

}
```

versus SwiftUI:

```
struct MyHomePage: View {
@StateObject private var appState = MyAppState()

var body: some View {
VStack {
BigCard(pair: appState.current)
.padding(.bottom, 10)

Button("Next") {
appState.getNext()
}
.padding()
.background(Color.blue)
.foregroundColor(.white)
.cornerRadius(8)
}
.frame(maxWidth: .infinity, maxHeight: .infinity)
.padding()
}

}
```

versus React Native:

```
const MyHomePage = () => {
const [pair, setPair] = useState(/* initial pair /);

const getNext = () => {
// Logic to get the next pair
// You'll need to implement this function
};

return (
<View style={{ flex: 1, justifyContent: 'center', alignItems: 'center' }}>
{/* Replace BigCard with appropriate React Native components */}
<BigCard pair={pair} />
<View style={{ marginVertical: 10 }}>
<Button title="Next" onPress={getNext} />
</View>
</View>
);

};
```
The pushback from the CDC was very strong as well as the media and social media. Physicians were being censored and bullied for saying it was okay or for prescribing it.
For some definitions of wealth, sure. I think the minimum definition is that you are freed from at least some need to labor. Clearly there’s a wealth point at which you need to capture excess value from the labor of others.
"It often makes me sad to see how they can be absorbed by these non-sense activities instead of simply being proud of what they are."

....because "being proud of what you are" doesn't work when no one cares about what you do or who you are. Then, your options are two-fold: you either become an isolated loner who doesn't care about socialising, or you participate in those superficial activities in hope of human connection.

> Would you rather Exxon, Phillip Morris and Pfizer fund the research? Private funds by Musk and Besos?

Actually Exxon just bought the $5B Denbury CO2 pipeline. While I am on the fence about CO2 actually being a problem, we need to recognize that companies that may be viewed as opposed to something may be part of the solution.

If someone works out a super-efficient algael biofuel that is commercially viable at a national scale, I fully expect the oil multinationals will move to growing it everywhere.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but that's basically what AMD did with their Vega lineup. I quite like AMD's mobile GPU lineup, but their desktop Vega cards got trashed by the AMD's last-gen cards and wasn't even visible from the Nvidia benchmark at the time. Those cards were discontinued faster than a bat outta hell.

Intel has also done a fairly good job pushing their mobile GPUs forward, but their most powerful card is currently comparable to last-gen mobile GPUs from Nvidia. Unless Intel intends to be a TSMC customer, I'd be surprised if they could outperform AMD's attempt at that.
Thank you I only briefly read about them before and didn't consider them properly.

I chose to purchase a phone that can’t do this. I’m fine with that. I’d rather my phone be how it is. I don’t need some nerd fighting for me in some imagined battle. I am incredibly sick of this line of reasoning. Anyone who spends any time arguing this point quite clearly has too much time on their hands and no real problems. It’s utterly cringey. Leave me be.
> though they spent over $1mm on consultants specifically for this purpose and pay $3mm annually on internal roles whose job functions have considerable overlap and include doing this type of work. Administration hired a second consultancy for the same purpose in 2023.

I certainly agree that Boston and Massachusetts should reduce, or ideally eliminate, their restrictions on what housing can be built and where.

The benefit of doing that instead is it would help approximately 1000 times the number of people than raising Harvard grad student pay would.

It's worth noting that Harvard grad students are the ones getting attention here, and not the average person getting squeezed by rent. Are you going to whack-a-mole every single employer in the Boston MSA to pay at least $60k? Even if you did this, the increased pay would just go to inflated housing costs.

The underlying problem is a scarcity of housing, you can't fix that by giving people (in aggregate) more money. It will just bid up the cost of the scarce good.

And none of this really affects whether or not grad students should be encouraged to apply for whatever government benefits they are eligible for. Harvard doesn't control where the federal government sets the income cutoffs for benefits.

Nevertheless I'm sure highlighting this is a good way to grab attention.

That's a common experience for sauna beginners. You may feel as if you're not getting enough air, that the hot air is difficult to breathe in, and your heart rate goes up dramatically. But! That's something you get used to fairly quickly, go 10-20 times for four 10-15 and I promise you'll feel much more relaxed once the body gets used to the hot environment.

I moved from Europe to southeast of US and (dry) saunas are pretty much unheard of here. I miss them very much! It was very relaxing to go for two hours once a week, especially in the winter when it was snowy outside and you could plunge into an icy lake right after coming out of the sauna.
It’s an especially weird field to make that claim about, given every major prediction to ever come out of it has been wrong.
Common in program text != common in hot code paths. To estimate the actual impact, you'd have to run the code in a profiler.
