But you're talking shit about me under my thread which my comment is the parent to my face. You're starting shit. I've literally told you I don't appreciate your attitude and you're still starting shit.

I have done nothing wrong. You may disagree with me but disagreement isnt an offense and your actions in response are uncalled for. I'm not walking from this thread. This topic was started by me so I stand my ground.

You're the party starting shit and in the wrong. You're the one that needs to stop.

Common courtesy is not to run your mouth on the Internet because your shielded by anonymity. Treat the situation like real life. I am looking you in the eye in front of your face and politely requesting you to Walk away now.

You can choose to be an ass and continue acting rude by not walking away. That's your right. But just imagine what that would entail if you did that in real life. Unfortunate that real consequences aren't enforced on HN. This thread getting flagged already is a big indicator that you crossed the line.
*"Many psychological studies sound convincing but are hard to replicate and/or based on low sample sizes or poor experimental design."*

Many physics, chemistry, and computer science studies suffer from these as well. Science is hard, and there are a lot of constraints on research. Typically the first finding is made with limited funding, meaning limited ability to do the study right. Also, usually there is no perfect study, just a balancing of different strengths and weaknesses. That is why in psychology and neuroscience research, we talk about converging evidence. 'Converging' here means evidence employing multiple modalities, measures, and procedures. This might mean combining evidence from animal and human models, molecular and neuroimaging, etc. Its messy stuff, and every approach has tradeoffs.

*Seeing a plausible mechanism underlying a theory isn’t enough. So I’m writing this comment as a placeholder. Who here has checked the source studies?*

You are writing a comment as a placeholder for what exactly? So far in your comment, it just seems like an excuse to bash on Psychology research, which is too often a cheap thrill here on HN, and usually from someone who has read little serious psychological research save the most flashy in-the-news findings.

*Roughly speaking what is the total number of people in all studies pertaining to this claimed effect?*

This appears to be a logical question, and within the immediate context, understandable. However, the more informed context would understand that the so-called "Doorway Effect" is just a specific example of a more general and prevalent cognitive phenomenon: The role of spatio-temporal context in memory and cognition.

You ask for specific sample sizes from studies that use tasks that look at the effect passing through doors, and well there may be just an of a few hundred.

But, I being somewhat knowledgeable int he field (PhD in memory research) would instead ask: What is it about doorways that could cause such an effect. Ah yes, it involves a change in the spatiotemporal context. What is the evidence that context changes impose costs to memory function?
Well: https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C5&q=cont...

So many, for so long.. Its a HUGE literature.
Point is, its not about doors, and this is just one finding in a long list of similar findings that created CONVERGING evidence of a phenomenon.
I used Clairefontaine wirebound and Rhodia notepads throughout high school and college, they were great and I suggest both brands.
This is a broader look at something I've been saying for a little while: Names are not strings.

Strings are a primitive type. Names are not strings in the same way Dates are not strings. They can be implemented, represented, and printed as strings, but they have behaviors and meaning the primitive string type does not.

The author here goes farther and notes how many things programmers represent as or with strings, but are not strings.

In code where the domain is strings, then use strings. Parsers and serialization come to mind.
It's possible to avoid using the base string type completely in a program except at the boundaries of I/O, and as an internal implementation detail, in the same way programs can use Dates, Complex, and Lat/Lon without having any need to know how they are implemented under the abstract type.
> "(Of course, they have drawbacks, like they can leak their refrigerant that causes more of a greenhouse effect than CO2.)"

My heat pump contains 2.1 kg of R32 refrigerant. R32 has a GWP of 675, so that 2.1 kg is the equivalent of 1417 kgs of CO2. (older refrigerants were much worse!)

Heat pumps should never leak their refrigerant during their lifetime, and installers will remove and recycle the refrigerant when servicing or decommissioning systems. But of course, accidents happen, so let's pessimistically assume that 50% of systems installed will eventually leak. In the real world it's hopefully far less than that, but that would mean on average 708 kg CO2e in refrigerant is emitted per system over its lifetime.

On the other hand, heating a typical US home with natural gas emits 2900 kgs of CO2 per year.

I think it's safe to say that the climate impact of refrigerant leaks in modern heat pump systems is minuscule compared to that of the CO2 emitted from natural gas heating.

Authority over other people's bodies is the basis of all law. For example, if I use my body to shoot up a school, society has a right to stop me and hold me to account for the consequences of the actions I took with said body.

More generally, my unlimited rights over my own body end when the actions I perform with that body affect other people. And an unborn child is "other people."
Look at "light pollution" map of the USA. Look at western North Dakota and the light pollution there is more than the biggest cities in the USA. All of that is from flaring from fracking.
I feel like this is overkill for a startup.

Why not dump your application server and dependencies into rented data center (or EC2 if you must) and setup a coarse DR? Maybe start with a monolith in PHP or Rails.

None of that word salad sounds like startup to me, but then again everyone loves to refer to themselves as a startup (must be a recruiting tool?), so perhaps muh dude is spot on.

Management problem masquerading as a tech problem.

Being shared between applications is literally what databases were invented to do. That’s why you learn a special dsl to query and update them instead of just doing it in the same language as your application.

The problem is that data is a shared resource. The database is where multiple groups in an organization come together to get something they all need. So it needs to be managed. It could be a dictator DBA or a set of rules designed in meetings and administered by ops, or whatever.

But imagine it was money. Different divisions produce and consume money just like data. Would anyone imagine suggesting either every team has their own bank account or total unfettered access to the corporate treasury? Of course not. You would make a system. Everyone would at least mildly hate it. That’s how databases should generally be managed once the company is any real size.
I think the Pilot Metropolitan caps are hit or miss. I have the fountain pen and rollerball versions and the rollerball cap was /much/ tighter so when I was using my metropolitan I used the tighter cap.
EVs are a textbook case in falling in love with a solution, not the problem. The focus should be on producing an efficient, reliable and cost effective vehicle that is widely accessible to as many people as possible.

When measured against that criteria, how well does Tesla actually stand up? Outside of tech and car enthusiasts, people view cars as a tool that gets them from place to place. I don’t care if it’s an EV if it’s more expensive, less reliable and a hassle. I don’t care about self driving features and don’t want my life to revolve around a form of transportation.

The political discourse on Meta isn't politics, though, it's the simalcrum of politics.

It's controversial national issues - that sometimes aren't even happening - and hot takes. There's no governance discourse, there's no actual organising or calls to action, it's just 'x happened, scream about how bad the other side are here.'

If it were actual politics the division problem wouldn't be so bad.

Tradesfolk are _so_ political, it boggles my mind. I own a house, and need to get quotes for HVAC and plumbing stuff occasionally, and holy shit, I do not look forward to those conversations. Just nodding my head for 15 minutes while they look over my setup ranting about what they heard on cable TV last week.

I mean, it's good to force me out of my bubble, but maybe not right into the deep end where, and this is from about 8 hours ago, "heat pumps are no good in the Pacific Northwest because they use more electricity than resistive heating". The PNW: a climate renowned for two things: rain and mild temperatures, where heat pumps are no good. All I can do is nod and say "uh huh".

> To be blunt, I don't want to mask or pretend to be neurotypical. I want to be authentic self. Unfortunately, this often leads to people thinking I dislike them or that I'd prefer to be left alone, even when I make an effort to be outgoing and enthusiastic, ask open-ended questions about them, and so on.

Spergs who think like this eventually learn it's unworkable and tend to revert back to simulating* neurotypical behaviour again. If they don't they'll become bitter and claim the world refuses to understand them – which while true at the end of the day only hurts them.

No one who would naturally dislike you for who you are is going to be okay with you just because you tell them your a sperg. Not even my family will give me this liberty. If I'm sperging out and refusing to talk they don't say, "oh that's fine, you're a sperg". No, they'll get mad at me and demand I stop being rude – as they should.

You live in a neurotypical world. If you want to get on with people you have to learn how to simulate. Even in the unlikely scenario these people accept you for who you are it won't help you. You'll just find it harder to function in the real world because now you're not being forced to practice your simulation since everyone around you has been accepting your anti-social behaviours.

If you need to be yourself you should find other autists. But again, just having autist friends isn't a good idea because you'll stop putting effort into simulation.

That said, these things depend a lot on how autistic you are. If it's mild autism and you just have a few quirks then perhaps it's fine to be honest with those around you and be yourself. For myself this would be out of the question.

---

* I use the word simulating instead of masking. I don't like the idea that I'm "masking" anything about myself, and that's also not what it feels like I'm doing. Masking makes it sound like I'm being deceptive in some way when I'm not. My simulated neurotypical personality is still 100% me I just have a translation layer on top. I always try to be true with how I'm feeling, but present it in a way that's socially acceptable. Eg, instead of pretending you want to be around people, you could just say, "hey, it's a bit loud in here, I think I'm going to sit over there for a while so I can concentrate". One is "masking" how you truly feel, the other is just stimulating a neurotypical response to how you're actually feeling instead of behaving in a way that's perceived as rude. The fact you feel you're being inauthentic might suggest you're trying to be someone you're which might be part of the problem here.
In the second grammar, additive-expression2 is still contains a recursive call in the right-hand term, so it would produce a parse tree that's right associative. For example, given the string `A - B - C` you'd get:

(additive-expression
(multiplicative-expression A)
(additive-expression2
-
(multiplicative-expression B)
(additive-expression2
-
(multiplicative-expression C)
<null>
)
)
)

Which corresponds to the right-associative expression `(A - (B - C))`. You could do some post-processing on the results to invert it and make it left-associative, but I don't think the two grammars are equivalent.

Perhaps "normalize" or "canonicalize" is more appropriate. A parser can liberally interpret but I don't take it to imply some destructured form necessarily. There are countless scenarios where you want to be able to reproduce the exact input, and often preserving the input is the simplest solution.

But yes usually you do want to split something into it's elemental components, should it have any.
Nvidia's now worth as much as the entire Chinese stock market
The difference is that the music industry still largely controls what is made available and what isn't, as well as which areas are allowed to hear certain songs/artists. Many songs aren't available on youtube without the use of a VPN to get you an IP in different countries. You don't usually get "this video isn't available in your country" messages anymore, but the videos just don't show up in searches for you at all unless you're allowed to see them.

Copyright infringement is still rampant on youtube which really gives people a very false sense of security. We've come to expect everything to be available to them, but it's all very tenuous and the music industry in particular is constantly taking steps to lock down our ability to share and access our culture. They're always pushing for youtube to do more to protect their profits and role as gatekeeper even while more and more innocent people get caught up in youtube's shitty enforcement efforts.
I've also seen it called primitive obsession, which is also applicable to other primitive types like using an integer in situations where an enum would be better.

I got three quotes for a new water heater just this week. One was more than twice the other. I'll see where number three comes in. $1900 for a resistive electric water heater seems steep, but at least there's an argument that it's reasonable. 4 grand is just so out there that I have to believe it was personal somehow.
Sam Altman is just repeating the early days Elon playbook.

He tries to keep the media coverage saturated with bullshit which avoids scrutiny on the wrong things and has the convenient side effect of burning attention otherwise drawn towards things like Google’s Gemini Product launch.

The fact that things are basically verbatim reported without any critical thinking shows he’s right, it works. Trump employed the same strategy too.

It takes advantage of our terminally broken media ecosystem (no incentive to call bullshit), personality cult and attention economy.

This is false. VHS had the advantage of larger cartridges, which allows longer recording time, which is especially important for time shifting TV shows (and not at all important for porn). Also, JVC licensed VHS to other recorder manufactures, which lowered prices and increased the number of available models.

Also, why would porn not be available on Betamax? You never needed a license from the format owner to prerecord tapes.

Climate Change Is a Policy Choice
Thanks for that explanation! I hadn't appreciated that aspect of "parse, don't validate," before.

But even with that understanding and from re-reading the post, that seems to be an extra safety measure rather than the essence of the idea.

Going back to my original example of parsing a Username and verifying that it doesn't contain any illegal characters, how does a parser convert a string into a more direct representation of a username without using a string internally? Or if you're parsing an uint8 into a type that logically must be between 1 and 100, what's the internal type that you parse it into that isn't a uint8?

The offending LED is the black spot in this picture:

https://www.belkin.com/dw/image/v2/BGBH_PRD/on/demandware.st...

Look no further than that. Note, I have the black one from Amazon, and it's no longer for sale, so maybe they realized the mess-up.

It's been my charger for iPhone current-gen since July of this last year and it's horrible.

The LED on this thing is not EXACTLY blue, but it's birthed of the exact same hellhole, and close enough in general color to count.

So let's walk through this:

1. It's piercingly bright in the exact perfect shade of light that you can't help but notice everywhere in a dark room.

2. It's designed in a way that projects that thing across the room like a spotlight.

3. The light comes out of a silly small surface on an inconvenient placed spot on the edge of the shell. Meaning electrical tape lasts about 5 minutes.

3. I'm not a stranger to cracking things opens, but with this thing is hermetically sealed, I haven't been brave enougth to do it yet.

I tried to just shove a needle in there to short out the LED, but it's probably some kind of surface mount and I couldn't hit it.

Alternatives to cracking it open have been stuffing like 4 inches of electrical tape in the hole with a dental pick/needle, and then covering it up with more tape to seal it in. This took a while, but it also lasted at least two months. But again, not permanent.

The point is, anything that could potentially be primarily be used in a bedroom, shouldn't be a cool light.

On AWS, at least, there are alternatives such as ECS and even plain old EC2 auto scaling groups. Teams can have the autonomy to run their infrastructure however they like (subject to whatever corporate policy and compliance regime requirements they might have to adhere to).

Kubernetes is appealing to many, but it is not 100% frictionless. There are upgrades to manage, control plane limits, leaky abstractions, different APIs from your cloud provider, different RBAC, and other things you might prefer to avoid. It's its own little world on top of whatever world you happen to be running your foundational infrastructure on.
