Yeah, just dug that up myself. I still feel that you ask for funding and then plan the event, if the funding is crucial, but clearly the PSF set an expectation that it didn't live up to.

Note the same FAQ, though, says this: "There is no set maximum, but grants are awarded with consideration for the annual PSF grant budget and that events/sprints will be virtual...with that in mind are willing to consider up to $2,500 per request for larger virtual events."

My guess is that this FAQ needs an update now that the PSF is once again willing to fund in-person events.
I think (reading between the lines on their docs) that you'll get throttled/dropped if you abuse the system by sending a regular push notification but do not notify the user. Apple doesn't like app developers using invisible notifications because it risks wasting device battery without the users being aware that their device is constantly being awakened by your app.

However, I was actually wrong more generally because Apple does have push notification type for this, Background Updates[1] are permitted to run invisibly. They say not to try sending more than 2-3 per hour, and that "the system may throttle the delivery of background notifications if the total number becomes excessive" - which sounds like you're permitted some unspecified small number between app launches.

These notifications seem to only be able to send a single boolean flag, so it doesn't seem like an awfully viable way of implementing a fixed rate message system (especially because you'd also want to be sending messages out on that same fixed rate to frustrate analysis)

> I do not consider burning wood to be sustainable

You can't really make such a broad statement. Sure, burning wood isn't a sustainable solution for everyone everywhere, but there's plenty of situations where it's the least-worse option for heating. My parents heat their house with wood they gather from their property which mostly falls naturally. It's impractical to do anything else with it.

Perhaps they could let it decompose - releasing approximately the same amount of carbon it releases in burning - but while that might benefit the local ecosystem marginally, it would also mean they were heating their house with fossil fuels instead.

These threads always have a bunch of this weird type of person who doesn't understand that ads from YouTube and ads that content creators put in their videos are different things.

There may be compensating syntactic factors in the large to English word bitwise & boolean operators in the small -- such as being able to skip parentheses in command-style function call syntax and define your own operators (to bring back brevity surgically) that are even implemented as templates or macros. Maybe you can have it all? { famous last words when trade-offs rear their heads :-) }. Personally, whenever I switch from Nim to any other PL (except maybe Unix shell) things always feel much more verbose.

EDIT: For example, say you want Python's Walrus operator. You can just do this (although you can often just use a slightly more verbose parenthesized `let` expression):

proc `:=`*[T](x: var T, y: T): T = (x = y; x)

or maybe you want `myvar |= flag` like in C/Python. You can also do that:

proc `|=`*[T, U](a: var T, b: U) = (a = a or b)

But both of those could also be templates or macros that get the whole AST, can pick the AST apart, and emit whatever Nim code you actually want.

In fact, since Nim has nicely nested scopes & hygienic templates, you can define a bunch of operators in a library `template`, called say `unsafePtrArith` for pointer arithmetic, import that and then make them available in a little sub-scope to your code like:

unsafePtrArith: a += 5

or

unsafePtrArith:
b += 4
c += 3
No, and it seems like something that will need to come through legislation unfortunately, imho.

Show HN: ByeBye Fitness – cancel gym memberships online
Hi HN. I spent the last two weekends making bye bye fitness.

I’ve been meaning to cancel my LA Fitness membership for 6-8 months and never got around to going to the post office and mailing them the certified letter they demand.

I was able to do just that this morning (my first sale!) from my bed.

I love the idea of right to cancel legislation and hope that it makes my little app irrelevant but until then, I’ll do my best to make it a bit easier to cancel without jumping through hoops.
In fairness, they did say monitoring air quality was part of the solution. If you get it dry and clean any visible mold, then the air tests come back fine, it shouldn't be an issue. The air tests are the only way to really know.
Thankfully, Elon loves Norway.

https://www.cnbc.com/2017/05/01/why-elon-musk-loves-norway.h...
Mold is being remediated in my house as I type this. My wife and I have been dealing with insidious symptoms for years (brain fog, joint pain, anxiety, muscle stiffness, balance issues, neuropathy, increased ADHD, and more). Only recently did we discover that there was black mold (Stachybotrys chartarum) in both our bedroom and in the air supply trunk located after the air handler. The bedroom mold was caused by an inactive leak that must have been there before we ever bought the house. The air handler was due to poor installation alongside high humidity.

We’ve already noticed a huge decrease in symptoms about 10 days after the air handler was pulled.
I think that whole thing is just a huge misunderstanding of elmu thinking that whole world works like USA. And even in USA, union members in average earn 18% more than others.

On the other side, strike and unionizing is one of basic workers rights here and you just don't fight unions in EU. As you will be losing more money than if you get to an agreement with them.

When elmu started his crusade against unions, I was laughing: "another USA manager that doesn't understand that he is no longer in states". But I never thought that he will be stupid enough to continue.

--- edit ---

I think also that most of young in USA and EU are in misunderstanding what Musk did and what he is fighting against. But I think they should and they SHOULD understand what solidarity means and what it can do. And why employers are trying to discredit unions, prevent them etc. - here you can check the Last Week Tonight on union busting in states: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gk8dUXRpoy8

(the numbers are just for illustration, google them, they are public)

Musk fights against one union. With 100.000 members. That union is in federation with 10 other unions with 100.000 members and federations are joining into confederations.

Even first federations presents a formidable force, from political perspective (number of votes on state elections), to pure money and people power.

You cant win, this is now, for unions and federations of unions, cultural fight. Initial union is no longer important and even if they would want to stop, they cant. If he will be poking long enough whole EU will fight him, from politicians that cant afford to lose votes from unions members and on top of that, do you think that German car industry is happy about him on EU soil? They would gladly cover wages for anyone striking.

If ETUC joins (largest EU trade union), he will be against 45 million workers and 41 EU states, and additional 10 union federations, probably bringing together numbers of 100 million workers, 1/5 of EU population without counting smaller unions. There is no politician that would want to lose their member votes and absolutely no EU capitalist that would be stupid enough to fight them even in worse nightmare. The backlash will be so huge all over EU that he wont sell even a free sample of Tesla car except to the greatest "individualists/fanboys" and they will have car windows broken on daily basis as quislings.

That's why never before something like this happened. As no one would be stupid enough to tease them.

If I would be him, I would pull back when second union was in play and reach silent agreement that wouldn't come to the news. Now, with 20 unions in protest? With two countries involved and potential for whole EU?

That's why I am saying, that he just didn't understand what is he fighting against. My honest advice. Stop. Now. Dont wait.

I reset the TV app whenever the ads become unreasonable, and every time I do that, the skip ads button reverts back to the original style (skip all ads after 5 seconds).

But if I login to an account, or use an anonymous session for long enough, the skip ads button will switch to the progress ring style, with 60+ seconds of unskippable ads. When that happens, I reset the app again.
> Public markets are equity markets that any member of the public can participate in.

Yes!

> They cannot exist without regulation

No! In fact, early crypto exchanges are examples of unregulated public markets. But we also know that this is incorrect because you can just imagine a world where the government doesn’t regulate these markets. The owner/agent problem you are describing can be solved without the use of government - you just find a different third party.

> It is reasonable to be upset at the use of force by the state to protect big tech companies

Sure but the criticism wasn’t “the State should stop big tech companies from doing bad things” it was:

* The big tech companies are not private; they are public companies that rely on state force to maintain their monopolies. Just as an example, intellectual property laws rely on the state for enforcement.*

Which is nonsense because being “public” and “licensed” isn’t relevant to the protection of the State here.

> China is not, even though both appeal to the “will of the people” and both have elections.

I lost track of what we were really discussing here but China does not hold elections in a way that resembles what we mean by an election. Chinese citizens don’t go to the voting booth, the appointment of the CCP ruler isn’t up to the public.

He's just too nice.
Yes, time spent indoors, and the West's obsession with anti-septic environments. I bought a little cabin on a lake in NJ after moving from NY. I didn't bother sealing every crack and nook with sealant given my energy bill was reasonable, and I liked the fresh air exchange over time. Friends moved up there and built air-tight houses with all the modern materials with foams, glues, carpet backing, tiling and other products that need a significant time to off gas, trap particulate and moisture, and as we now know, mold can thrive on almost anything with moisture. Anecdotal, but it seemed they were at the doctor's office 2 to 3x per year vs. my kids only going for checkups. People are now hypersensitive to so many things, and I believe a lot is due to this approach to what it means have a healthy home and household. I have raised 4 children, and aside from some mildly annoying hayfever for a very short period for 2 of them, they are mostly non-allergic and I am grateful, have no medicinal allergies. I also think we have grown a bit hypochondriacal and have actually fed into this phenomenon. There are even studies claiming 50% more likelihood to contract MS if you are exposed to the solvents or chemicals in paint thinners and household cleaning solutions. Even "organic" products in large amounts do not bode well for most people's health, so housing construction that claims to be "organic" with low VOC elements used sometimes doesn't even address the need for sufficient air exchange with fresh air over environmental ratings on windows, appliances, etc. Somewhere in the middle there is a happy medium from my natural materials, drafty cabin, and an air-tight, "organic" material house. We had mold in the attic and it was black and after reading about it back in the late 90s early 2000s I went up and cleaned the rafters with Clorox (yes, chlorine, I know. My nuclear solution!). and opened the once-closed off ceiling to the attic. I put in skylights and opened up the A-frame for more air and light. Nobody in my family at the time, including my newborns seems to have suffered from having lived with this black mold, but evidently, there are many and I am not sure how prevalent dangerous black mold is from your generic black mold, but as I have said earlier, anything in too large a quantity can be deleterious to your health. Too much grain dust in the air would irritate you too and in high enough concentrations probably kill you over time!

> Look around you. Is the building you're in falling down?

You can say it’s stable, or that the building is in the act of slowly falling down without human input (maintenance). It’s a bit misleading to sneak in time scale.

> Are the things on your desk bouncing about, or are they just sitting there?

At a small enough scale bits of the desk are bouncing around due to thermal energy. Also same as the house, your desk will eventually decay into dust due to that bouncing.

> Are the atoms in your body fissioning, or are you still there?

This one is actually stable.

The other two systems are better characterized as metastable - they appear stable at certain time and length scales. In fact metastability can be pretty tricky to explain, and sometimes requires a detour into thermodynamics or other fields (e.g. biology if you’re asking why a person’s body seems rather stable).
