I've been WFH for 15 years and love it. My wife has been WFH for 3 years. While I do prefer WFH, I think there were benefits to us being apart during the work day and then catching up at dinner/evening. There are some downsides to being together 24/7, even in a good relationship.
For giggles I asked ChatGPT to write a typical SEO optimized recipe. It picked cookies and started with:

"Ah, the sweet aroma of freshly baked cookies! It always takes me back to my grandmother's cozy kitchen, where the warmth wasn't just from the oven, but also from the love and laughter we shared."

It's always impressive (almost scary) how well ChatGPT manages to work with these types of prompts.

Performance was not improved directly, gcc was terrible. Gcc development had actually stagnated for basically all of the early 90s and there was considerable discontent leading to a long forgotten but high profile fork: egcs. This work eventually went back into gcc for the 3.0 major version and the development model evolved considerably but this was well after the development of Quake. Short story Watcom had superior codegen throughout this time and for years later.

The performance critical parts of quake were written in Pentium micro optimized assembly.

Using DJGPP gave other advantages, the id team developed on Unix/Next boxes. I think they also had some commercial Unix servers for running the expensive level (PVS) compilers. This gave them had a compiler that could target Unixen, DOS and windows. They could ship the compiler if they wanted (though ultimately mods were done through quake C). With source available they were able to and did in fact modify the compiler and DOS extender for their needs as well

$3k per month health insurance in the US must be for a family of 4, and must have a very low deductible/oop max (indicating regular use of healthcare).

See here for a list of premiums in a state like NJ:

https://www.nj.gov/dobi/division_insurance/ihcseh/ihcrates20...

$427 per month would be the cost for a 21 to 24 year old for “BCBS Omnia Silver HSA” (a good representative health insurance), and you can figure out the premiums for other ages using the age rating factors on bottom left (max is $1,287 per month for a 64 year old).

Page 6 here shows the deductible and oop max ($2,300 and $7,500).

There's copays and uncovered costs like dental/vision on top of that, too. We reported $49k in medical expenses (which include these premiums, to be clear) to the IRS last year.
They said they purchased it in 2004, and it was given to me as a graduation present in 2011, so someone at our church must have upgraded it somewhere along the line. Doing a little searching, the Quad came out even later, in 2008 so it must have been around then. Presumably for the upgrade to Windows 7.

Now that I think about it, pastor's son was a gamer that spent all his time at the church, and I always thought it weird that a church had a discrete graphics card with DVI output in a back office machine...

Not to mention that most of the times it’s just slower than literally using bang(!) searches on a browser like duckduckgo.
Not so much that you’ve missed something or are mistaken, but Reddit is likely promoting those subs because they’re some of the only active high quality (I.e. not bots/astroturfing) ones left.

Not going to go through every example you gave, but the specific sport and team subreddits represent live and ongoing content rather than reposts from a decade ago, with many fans, strong communities, and nowhere else really to go. Consider the decline of traditional, non-steaming live TV networks, where at least here in the US, 98/100 of the top rated events people are still watching the old fashioned way are sports. Same thing.
I would argue this is implicitly paid in salary differences

Plus I think the express editions came with some strings attached. I could be wrong, because I already had the gcc ports (djgpp, mingw) and didn't care much about Microsoft's breadcrumbs.
Interesting idea. I’ve seen people get very confused by thinking that adding them in a certain order to the element would give some sort of control.

Which order do they do it in? Later classes are later in the css so more likely to be applied?

Do you have an example where quoting doesn't work? I've seen this conversation many times on HN, and the conclusion is always that quoting works, but not in the way many people expect, because it searches text hidden in the DOM and source code, and ignores punctuation and HTML/DOM boundaries.

> It would appear that with an unbounded queue every request will eventually be handled, but with an unbounded latency guarantee.

This might or might not be true. Depending on your strategy for retrieving tasks from the queue, it is not necessarily the case that every request will eventually be handled. FIFO will give you that guarantee; a priority system won't.

I have no idea about the physics so this will probably be a very stupid question but: could there be a way to use scattering passing through the skull bone to lower a high energy electron beam in very short wavelengths (over UV, closer to X-ray perhaps?) into the useful wavelength after it's passed/scattered through the bone layer?

Oh for sure, I would not suggest doing HL2 Engine Modding, I had suggested it because it has the lowest barrier of entry to get started for a someone that young.

>Joke aside, what can I do?

nothing? I mean back when I was 9 I was sending level designs to Nintendo - which they replied to but said "thanks but no thanks". Then I decided to learn programming and got on with it. BASIC then Pascal then C - my parents both didn't have any clue about computers and the only help I really got from them was the computer they bought me and that they drove me to the local library so I could get programming books.

let him figure it out by himself. chances are he loses interest but also that he catches the programming fever. you can't really do anything as a parent other than helping with the logistics :)
In my experience it comes down to the type of book. Novels and narratives with just a few supporting tables, illustrations, or diagrams? EPUB is probably preferable.

But anything remotely technical with code snippets, diagrams, screenshots, tables, etc, PDF is going to be infinitely better.
why?
(from the UK) my partner gave birth at home - twice in a big blow up swimming pool thing - we did have local maternity nurses here, although they was extremely helpful and useful, we could have got by without them.

The greatest desire of almost every person alive is to put the responsibility for their life and decisions in the hands of others. That's what we've been bred for. So health insurance is an absolute must, whether it's private or through the government. It doesn't even matter if the hospitals, doctors and pharmacies were actively hurting their patients, people would still need health insurance. Because the agony of being responsible for your own health would be too much for people to bear.
Been doing a lot of work on electronics and I think Queue's are very similar in a system to capacitors. They smooth out load either by buffering new work/load or holding onto pending work/load...
Funny that most of the stuff mentioned is low enough that it doesn't even meet my deductible. I'm not paying for insurance to cover a $250 bill, or even a $2,500 bill. I'm paying for insurance to cover an unexpected $250,000 bill.

My oldest son is 5, and I am having some of the same thoughts.

What system did you do the demos on in the 1990s? Might a "classic" system like that not be the "contained" environment you are looking for as a learning environment? And you are even good at that! Systems like the C64, Amiga 500 and Amiga 1200 are still references for current demoscene competitions. They are timeless, you can find them on eBay or emulate them, and your son will be able to show his skills on those even 10 years from now.

If you are afraid that these are not cool enough for your son, fear not. At retro events like VCF, Pixel Heaven, or in the dedicated area at Gamescom, children line up to play on those systems, and for some it is an element of great pride to be experts in them.

My answer to your question looks like this at the moment: I will start with a CBM 8032, after showing him how arcade games of the 1980s were. Then I will add a bit of color, sound, and maybe sprites, via a VIC-20 or C64. And then, if things go well, we can add multitasking and more OS and chipset features by exploring one of the last cool systems where you could try to master every secret: the Amiga.

It doesn't have to be "retro for life". But I think that learning with a "simple" past like this, also makes you better appreciate the present and the future.
Is it posible touse the ISBM to register the book?

America would benefit tremendously from adopting any of the universal healthcare models successfully implemented by many other countries.

Our existing insurance model is basically a giant racketeering scam. The lack of access to affordable healthcare increases crime, stifles innovation, decreases longevity and quality of life, and has created a breeding ground for lot of the crazier shit we are seeing in America.

I think we see Medicare For All sometime in the next 10-15 years. The first major party nominee for President who embraces it is going to get elected.
Those are the phones? Well then, that's weird!
I wouldn't recommend foregoing health insurance but there are some good takeaways here. Negotiating bills is something a lot of people aren't aware of.

I personally wasn't aware I can buy contact lens from the UK - will be giving that a try.
Yes, I have often related our devices to parasites which feed on our attention.
The idea of getting a dental exam through Groupon is absolutely hilarious. And by hilarious, I mean shocking, bewildering, and absurd. Negotiating ER appointments, even more so. This reads like an article from the Amish telling us "You Don't Need Electricity".
Watching one video with a climate change denier won’t make much of a difference being recommended and then watching 10 more will move the needle.

Yes, because when you find out you have cancer is the best time to go and try sign up for insurance it's not like you are under any other stressors... And I hope you like waiting for open enrollment, cancer can wait right? This is terrible advice and I'll be flagging this article which I don't do often at all.

My dad just went through this (cancer). He was on a co-op plan (snake oil if you ask me), had to pay out of pocket then fight to get reimbursed. The co-op said they wouldn't pay the outstanding bills if he left the plan and also refused some of the treatments doctors suggested. In the end he was able to get real insurance (not during open enrollment) through some loophole since the co-op was refusing to pay for something. I'm not sure if he died due to not getting treatment earlier or if earlier treatment would have resulted in the same but this advice is not just stupid, it's dangerous.
I lost my first son five years ago. For me it permanently damaged - or a least thus far - has damaged my ability to return to a state of "normal", leaving me feeling more acutely aware of the accumulated emotional wounds that life inflicts while simultaneously slipping a veil between living and me. It was fast. One morning he was there and that night he was not.

To have ones child trapped in a state between life and death is a darkness that I am not sure I could endure. It is good to see that his family is so loving of one another and, I suppose, that he has such strong faith because ... I just cannot ... that cycle of pain that is most acute for months and months after your child is gone would spring on you every morning as the panic sets in, every time you step in and out of their room, every time you feed them, preventing any form of healing whatsoever. For me it would in any case. I cannot express it properly. It is a tragedy and I think that he may well be in a state of shock that he will not even be able to recognize as such for a long time to come.
Wrong. ( https://www.google.com/search?q=SSR+of+webcomponents )

Corporations are people too :)

Under law they are actually qualified as "artificial persons". I think about this from time to time, and what deeper meaning does it carry.
Actually, the article mentions a person who got cancer and then got "insurance" afterwards. It's not really insurance due ACA rules, iirc.

> If you are diagnosed with a chronic illness, explore your insurance options.

Isn't it incredibly hard to find insurance if this is the case? Quite curious how it works in the US. I think this all changed under the Affordable Care Act??

Here in the UK it's hard to find insurance that would accept you with a chronic illness unless it's quite low-risk. The only way I was able to "lock-in" a policy was by contuining a medical-history-agnostic one I had under an employer. To get it as a private citizen would have been impossible due to my medical history. So basically I'm now never letting that policy go. TBF the main reason to get private health insurance in the UK is for a shorter waiting list and better aftercare or rehab, but it can also provide hugely life-changing medical intervention if you can carry the policy into old age, AFAIK.

But yeh.. I'm privately uninsurable. I cannot purchase life insurance anywhere ... trust me I've tried. Which is funny because I thought the whole point of insurance was to equitably balance out the risk amongst a collective. Ultimately, for me, the whole point with insurance is that it can cover you if something super-super-awful happens. It protects from financial ruin in the case that e.g. you need life-saving emergency surgery. It's there for the unpredictable.. not routine dental appointments lol.

You formulated this as if you are sure of it and it is a fact. Could you link a source?
Not quite comparable though I would say, given that you know what you're signing up for when applying for a job. Travelling to a conference is a one-off whereas you'd be expecting to come to your job everyday (given the contract states this). You wouldn't accept a job in another country and turn round expecting them to pay for your flights, hotel etc. to be in the area during the work week

My kids were born three months early.

What does "being responsible" for that look like? Should they enter the world a million dollars in debt already?
Good point - so I guess it could be anything from 0% to 40%, although I guess my broader point is that the measure of absolute percentage points could hide significant ‘actual’ growth.
Good luck with living and surviving after cancer. Might outright rather die than having 200k in debt for getting sick once.
But if you only sell low value items, it may not be worth it, especially if you won’t loose many customers because most customers have cash at hand.
Whenever I talk to operations research people about "how do I learn X?" or "how do I calculate Y?" I usually get told to write a Monte Carlo simulation despite there being a lot of beautiful math involving stochastic processes, generating functions and stuff like that. (Even if you are calculating results in closed form it is still a slam dunk to have a simulation to check the work except when you are dealing with "exceptional event" distributions... That is, a Monte Carlo simulation of a craps game will give you an accurate idea of the odds in many N=10,000 samples, but simulating Powerball takes more like N=1,000,000,000 samples.)

The single "uncommon sense" result you need to know about queuing is

https://erikbern.com/2018/03/27/waiting-time-load-factor-and...

that is, with random arrivals, a queue that has slightly less than 100% utilization will grow stupendously long. People look at a queue with less than 100% and often have a feeling of moral disgust at the "waste" but if you care about the experience of the customer and the reliability of the system you don't let utilization get above about 80% or so.
> If... you can prioritize requests in a timely fashion

Just want to point out that this still is processing ― and so your sorting-proxy that would either route high-priority requests forward for actual processing or put low-priority requests into a queue with unbounded storage can still be overloaded with incoming requests. And, of course, that queue with unbounded storage need to be able to put all of those incoming requests into the storage in timely manner.
If you do opensource it, happy to help maintain it. This product would be helpful for my (fledgling) company, but would need to be self-hosted (use case is esignatures)

Are you out of your mind?

Have you actually lived under communism?

I grew up under soviet occupation and none of those things were even remotely true.

The party apparachiks ate the weak for breakfast, no rule of law, no fairness. As the saying goes: everyone is equal, but some are more equal than others.

The quality of the concrete housing blocks is abysmal, there have been pretty bad collapses, the ventilation and insulation is nonexistent, it's a dreadful existence in them.

Availability of apartments was really bad, you had to wait in line for 10 years before you could get one. Then start fixing the flaws by yourself.

Wanted a zhiguli car? Wait in line for 5 years to get a permit to buy a car, then go to get it from some ass end corner of russia. After getting home, get few friends to pretty much disassemble the car to make sure that every bolt is actually tightened so the car would not disintegrate randomly.

As for kissing bosses asses, this was there even more. Bribes to get basics.

Wanted to get sausage, stand in line for a few hours only to find out that "it's run out, wink, wink, gimme a bottle of vodka and wait behind the shop, maybe I find some".
