Have you noticed near to everything "we" say, as far as analysis of this war goes, ends up being simply not true? Russia's running out of missiles, the Russian economy is collapsing, this counter-attack's going to destroy Russia, this weapon or that weapon will be a 'game-changer.' So forth and so on. And now we're at "well it's just a stalemate."

The latest 'big battle', so far as I know is ongoing in Avdiivka. [1] I have not read the Wiki page on it, but if you're interested in following the war, that'd probably be a reasonable starting spot.

I have met several great partners through dating apps, but it's certainly not easy. Very demoralizing. It's a grind.

I met one partner at my sport club, one partner at UFC night (friend of a friend) and my current g/f I met through my brother. I would say it's certainly easiest to meet people "humanely" in person. It won't break your soul like online dating, but it honestly requires just as much effort.

You have to GO to parties. You have to hang out with your friends, a lot. You cannot be looking for a girlfriend, but try to keep expanding your circle. Like, I have some friends who do not have ONE attractive single friend. Attractive people congregate, so try to hang out with more interesting, sociable, attractive friends. This sounds like weird advice, but I think "choose your friends wisely" applies to many facets of life, and dating is certainly one of them.

You are right for tax purposes, but for this Personal Income metric I'm not sure. Looking at this: https://www.bea.gov/system/files/methodologies/SPI-Methodolo...

> Personal income as defined by BEA differs substantially from adjusted gross income (AGI), the principal income measure used by the Internal Revenue Service.

So it explicitly is not the same as the IRS definition of income.

> For the measurement of personal income, employer contributions to pension plans are counted as part of supplements to wages and salaries. Employee contributions to the plans, capital gains of the plans, and payments of benefits by the plans are not counted as part of personal income.

I believe they consider a 401k to be a defined contribution pension plan. I know normally you wouldn't call a 401k a pension and you wouldn't talk about "payments of benefits" from a 401k, but in context (page 32) I think that is what they mean. So it seems like the amount your employer contributes to your 401k counts as income for that year, any additional voluntary amount you contribute doesn't count, and when you withdraw money that also doesn't count. Maybe I'm misunderstanding but that is my reading.
Yes, and? Sorry to be obtuse, but I'm just trying to understand the decision tree here. Of course if I'm speeding I know I'm breaking the law. Does denying that somehow get me out of a ticket?

Look at the base rate of speeding. When I drive on 101 in the bay area in clear traffic, I'm doing around 65 (the limit)-75 in the right lane and the majority of people are passing me on the left (or tailgating me because they want me to go faster or drafting or whatever it is that causes people to drive too close behind me when I drive near the speed limit). From what I can tell, unless a cop is actively trying to be punitive, they typically don't stop a car simply because it's going up to about 15MPH over the freeway limit.
Fair enough. So the attack scenario is having a rogue state-sponsored app installed on everybody's device (think tik-tok), which steals everybody's private keys ... and does what? Registers an account on coinbase to launder money? Applies for a childcare subsidy and wires the money to insert country here?

Here's a hot take -- maybe we could just make self-incriminating statements inadmissible altogether unless it's given as testimony, verbal or written and signed while not under duress.

If the only evidence the police have is what you say, then that should be insufficient.

When we both worked at an NGO in a mountainous desert country in a relatively peaceful period.

My advice is always, find the kind of thing that you want to be doing and then do it. In my case it was do something more meaningful with my life, in my now wife's case it was walk with the people in the country we were in. Our overall life aims were relatively close, and so one thing led to another.

> How are they going to secure convictions against the innocent if they can't lie to them?

The way they do in countries that have long forbade lying in interrogations:

https://law.stackexchange.com/questions/84483/is-it-generall...

> when they have no proof at all it's going to put a heavy burden on the prosecutor to get that person in jail.

Oh, how awful it is that a prosecutor has to prove someone's guilt! What next? Presumption of innocence?

Having followed the topic on and off for well over a decade: As a juror I never believe someone's confession. Rather irrelevant as most confessions won't get to trial, but it often takes very little to get a suspect to produce a false confession. At times, even without any deceit from the interrogators.

I wish I could recall one particular case: A person was murdered, and they charged another person living in the apartment complex. After a long interview session, he confessed. But his confession didn't match any of the evidence. So they pressured him to name an accomplice. The accomplice confessed. The evidence still didn't match. They kept pressuring the original suspect to name names until they had 4-5 people - all of whom confessed.

They later retracted their confessions, claiming duress. But the jurors convicted them on the strength of their confessions ("Who would confess to a murder? I wouldn't!").

They were, of course, all innocent. They spent time in prison, and eventually managed to get the courts to release them. But one or two still haven't been "exonerated" - their conviction stands and thus can't get jobs (or even an apartment).

Oh, and no physical coercion was involved. They were simply worn down by the long interrogation.

IIRC, over half of people whose convictions have been overturned involved a confession of guilt during interrogation (maybe it was just death row folks - don't remember the specifics).
there are a few common points between dating and looking for a job, one of them being: it's easier to find one if you already have one

For real question

Is there anybody programming in todays Market?

I get impression that a lot of open source, is because programmers 'want' to program, it is a hobby, for fun. Because at work there is no programming happening.

If you take entire market.

It seems 90% jobs are not programming anymore. Most jobs today are tickets, or maintenance, or installing some other package, various terms for 'support'.

Nobody is writing their own code.

Where are the programming jobs?
they won't blame you for the hit and run, but what if a store near there gets robbed an hour after you talk to them, and they decide you're a suspect because you look somewhat like the description and they know you were in the area?
Second this. Bouldering is the MOST social sport on earth. Literally 80 % of the night is sitting around chatting. Plus it's full of young, fit, healthy people, and a good quantity of women. It's honestly perfect.
The ATF being required to keep paper records only is a feature, not a bug, specifically mandated after the absolute fiascos of Ruby Ridge and Waco. Regulators decided that giving them less power was probably wise.
I don't quite know what point you're making.

There is some state coverage but the income limits are low (50-70 for 1-2 kids)

https://ocfs.ny.gov/programs/childcare/ccap/help.php#CCAP-in...

Daycare outside of that is incredibly pricey, and if you're as 'blessed' as we were with a multiples pregnancy then the nanny quickly becomes cheaper.

Which is to say, if you make less than 67 you get sizeable benefit, but if you earn more you are likely net negative (but child positive) until you pass about 100k. That's a scary gap.
I don't think GP described lack of the language specification as a blocker for future success? It's something nice-to-have when the ecosystem has enough resources, though I'm skeptical if this can be meaningfully kept up-to-date unless the core language team decides to actively maintain it. But this will definitely trade off the velocity to a certain degree.
I met mine in 6th grade after summer school where we initially met and then during regular school she ended up sitting behind me due to ABC order. She hated my guts for 10+ years but I stuck around and now we have 3 kiddos, another on the way, and are relatively happy =).

You're 20 years too late for that option but I see most 28+ year olds who actually try to put themselves out there finding partners while doing in-person hobbies (rock climbing, biking, running, puzzles, board game nights), from work (where it starts off as work banter), solo travel (example: getting scuba diving certification forces you to "buddy" up and getting drinks with instructor and other students after)
This is one of the biggest ones. If you are caught with more than a certain amount (say 20 teeny tiny bags of crack) you are assumed to be distributing it even without any evidence of distribution. They say you would not have that much for personal use.
I think a compiler for PCBs is a great idea!

Are you fully open source today? How has the community aspect been going?
For sure, its a big benefit of using language, it is comparatively very fast and easy to define custom relationships of component values, trace widths etc that would quickly become untenable in a point and click tool. We think the path forward is to be able to encode the governing equations that you would get in say a buck controllers data sheet directly into our source code. That way from a user perspective you can define your circuit simply by importing modules, defining them (for example input voltage, output voltage and current) we can then solve the component values and pick them from our component database for you. One of our early users wrote a plugin to do LED arrays in an afternoon. Our compiler is all open so its pretty easy to add on custom scripts for whatever you might be wanting to do.

I think the comment you're replying to meant to say developers are cheap in the sense they allergic to spending money, not that their time/salary is cheap.

QBO Kubernetes Engine (QKE) is a game-changer for anyone involved in ML and AI development. The use of Docker-in-Docker technology for deploying Kubernetes components is a brilliant move. It simplifies the complexities traditionally associated with virtual machines and ensures direct access to hardware resources, which is crucial for performance-intensive tasks. What particularly stands out is how QKE maintains the agility of cloud environments while delivering optimal performance, a balance that's often hard to achieve. It's clear that QBO is pushing the boundaries of what's possible in cloud-native environments for ML and AI workloads.

in several of these situations you may become a suspect by talking to the police. Plenty of instances of people being killed or injured by the police also begin with them calling the police for help.

I have written a bunch of more or less complicated SQL during my career. And I am pretty sure that if I need to write a SQL statement that's anything but select * from table, my output won't work 75% of time.

I may be special case, but typically if I work on a hard problem, it is not a single hard problem but a sh*tload of connected simple problems. If I can get someone to solve the simple problems 75% of the time correctly so that I can spend my time figuring out how those simple problems are to be connected, I'm ore than happy. And that's exactly how I use chatgpt. I have learned not to ask too complex questions from it. But the simple ones, it mostly aces and when it does not , they are easy to spot, as it is not that I could not have solved them myself, I just did not want to spend time for that. Now, if only the chatgpt was not almost as lazy as me to produce long simple stuff, that would be awesome.
I'm not aware of the far right being labeled as woke before. Generally they are called conspiracy theorists, or MAGA. I don't think they are generally virtue signaling either. When they say Trump had the election stolen they seem to actually believe that and would like for Trump to take over the presidency today.

Unlike the left wing virtue signalers who say things like "abolish the police", but in reality do actually want to be able to call the police when someone is trying to break into their house.

That is a pretty old link which has been severed a long time ago. They’ve even changed the name from Scholastic aptitude test to just SAT, in an effort to convey that SAT doesn’t actually measure anything but it self. (This is in a stark contrast to IQ which makes ridiculous and pseudo-scientific claims that it measures something approaching what they call general intelligence)

I have many beefs with SAT and standardized testing in general, but the link with IQ is not (anymore) one of them. IQ is a horrible and racist concept that should remain along with phrenology as a pathetic attempt to use science to explain racist beliefs. SAT used to be there. But we have to give them credit for having moved on.

In Canada there are no high school SATs and university admission is mostly based on high school performance. Universities there don't seem to have the issues that American ones do.

Living in America now I see a lot of parents spending thousands of dollars on SAT tutoring & preparation.

It seems a lot of things could be fixed just by being able to support and admit more students at the "good" schools? (also not sure why there is such a massive disparity in the quality of colleges here as well)

Using the term victim blaming is a fairly weak rhetorical device that people use when they don't have a better argument.

It can be true that a person is a "victim of SF's overly baroque permitting laws" while also being the source of their own problem. Remember that his neighbor has to see those little sheds every day, that careless work can damage property (and property values), etc, so they can be a victim too (and one whose actions did NOT cause their own victimhood).
Online (game then MSN), we were young, did the e-dating thing ;) then broke up, we lived a few hours apart, never met, skip some years for college, and about midway for me, we decide to meet up (Skype years), and never looked back (now we've got one kid, and a spoiled dog). For both of us it was always lingering.

I know a few people who met their significant other under similar circumstances, but honestly, you just have to be willing to meet people, if I see something in common with everyone else's comments here, is they went somewhere to meet new people or to spend time with friends, and voila met their loved one.

You won't find them sitting at home, unless you go somewhere to meet strangers online to talk to.

I've also heard of people meeting their SO on 4chan (though based on one friend's experience, I would not recommend this), someone else here commented they met their on HN. I won't be surprised if you can find one on Discord these days. One key thing if you want to find someone online not on a dating platform, look for communities with mutual interests as your own.
Tinder. Met up for a FWB kinda deal. Turned out we liked each other. Together nearly 4 years now.
Illinois. I wish I had the transcripts, but in civil court in the USA it's unusual as far as I'm aware to have a reporter transcribing. It is usually just recorded digitally, and then if there is an issue (e.g. appeal) the recordings are pulled and transcribed.

I'm assuming, without knowing, that I can have the recordings pulled without paying hundreds of dollars for transcripts. You can't FOIA judicial items in Illinois, but across the country you have a federal constitutional right to judicial items under the 1st Amendment.
Oh wow, TIL. Thanks, dang.
If you like long long walks, you could check out trail running / ultramarathon groups. Lots of people to meet at free running nights, which is twice a week at every running store. You don't even have to run! Just walk!

Do you have a dog? You could do dog training.
Do you do art? You could take art classes.
Do you like to code? (Obviously) Go to coding meetups.
Do you like writing/poetry? Go to poetry / open mic night.
Do you like games? Check out gaming stores for social events.

Do NOT expect to get dates at these places: that's a bad strategy. But try to meet friends at these places. You meet partners by proxy, and by having fun with your friends.

As a straight male: it's a lot easier to meet guys than to meet girls. Use that strategy.

I'm currently looking for either a full-time senior position or contract work. I've worked at a variety of different sized companies, and with a variety of different languages and frameworks, though I have been mostly focused on JavaScript recently.

I was one of the top contributors at my last job, github reported that I contributed over 1 million lines of code (though I know lines of code isn't a great measure). I work hard to meet deadlines. I enjoy helping to grow teams, hire and mentor.

Happy to learn new tech if you think it might be a good fit.
This is kind of why I don't mind playing Russian Roulette. I mean, think about the chances! Despite all the times people have played the game, how many have died in San Francisco, between 3rd Street and New Montgomery Street, while it's been raining on a Monday when Lionel Messi didn't play in Hong Kong because of injury. The chances are minuscule.

I don't think that the point was that there are no for loops in SQL. I think the point was that almost always using for loops is wrong and super inefficient and there is a much more efficient way to just use joins instead.
> If Russia's (and China's) immediate borders are packed with countries armed to their teeth, there would be wars.

I like this Putin's style of passive threats like "there would be wars". Just say the threat explicitly, Russia would invade their western neighbors.

Ukraine was a buffer state, yet it was invaded by Russia three times in the last 10 years. People have now justified doubts about this model.
