Now, that could be that the water is, in fact, polluted… or it could be a sign that the divine exists, has a sense of humor, and doesn’t much care for grandstanding politicians.

Given the continued existence of a certain US politician with flesh as orange as that turban, I’m leaning towards the former.

They've had a ~70% share price fall since the height of 2021, 40% lower compared to the summer of last year, of course that their future (at least as an independent company) is under threat, saying otherwise is just wishful thinking.

> That's the entire point of hiking interest rates, to make companies like Orsted slash their growth rates.

I highly doubt that that's the discussion being held at the meetings where the rates are being set, i.e. I've never heard the likes of the US Fed or of the ECB saying "we want to slow our most dynamic sector of the economy by increasing interest rates", but I could be wrong on that.
Its more about incentives. If I’m trying to chase the weight number obsessively, as is the case with my level of OCD, I’ll be prone to eat less, run more or do other things to loose weight. But I don’t want to loose weight, I want to look good and be healthy. And I don’t really like myself in that life - worrying about this almighty number, and measuring my actions to change it usually makes my life less worth living.

When I concentrate my efforts to general health/happiness - e.g. eat less carbs, move around more, stand in front of a screen instead of sit in front of one, go dancing … just try to increase “healthiness” level as I see it, I can actually enjoy life more.

I mean I love eating out, especially when I travel, and trying to eat less on a vacation is not fun at all.
But if I go hiking/social dancing/just walking about, suddenly I can do that and have more fun and am still be “fit” as per my personal definition.

I like to think about it in terms of system. I don’t want to loose weight now cause I know I’ll immediately gain it back the moment I get tired/bored/depressed. I want to build a habit (system) that would naturally bring me to my goal without exerting much willpower.

And chasing weight has never given me personally enough of a mental boost to keep at it in and off itself.

I’d be deeply surprised if a webapp requiring Next.js doesn’t have a state machine in any components.

If you’re past the complexity threshold for Next.js, you’ve run into what’s really probably the most fundamental construct in computing.

They’re not that complex. They’re just presented in academic language.

If you can program professionally, you’re very capable of self-studying a bachelor’s degree’s worth of CS.
For people here still struggling with their bullying (past), I’d highly recommend Cognitive Behavior Therapy together with EMDR. The same professional applied both techniques in my case. It has worked wonders for me and the painful past is much less painful now. Having being bullied no longer define my sentiments and outlook in life.

Then why do you say you could call the average doctor and get an appointment in 6 months?

As I mentioned, I know about a range of categories and I never heard of 6 months. Your example seems very specific.
Every more successful civilization will replace a less successful civilization. In the past it was done by horrible means - initially though genocide, then through enslavement, later through foreign rule that was a bit less terrible for an average resident. Today, it's through economic power, aka gentrification. Visit Silicon Valley if you have any questions.

As the means become less brutal, we should perhaps welcome still inevitable outcomes. If populations of Canary Islands had a chance to evaluate Spanish civilization through entirely voluntary means, more and more would choose to adopt a relatively comfortable lifestyle rather than constant struggle with scarcity. And those who do not have to accept that they are practicing a hobby that will gather a limited number of adherents. So long as your individual rights are respected and your individual responsibility for outcomes is emphasized, I don't see a problem with dominant culture changing over time.
Price signals are just that, signals and there are others for sure, like regulation.

You dont have to imagine a top down economy and fail to find examples, when simply regulation would do the trick and keep some enterprise freedom.

It's always crazy reading those kinda comments. He keeps maligning the product that he had to pay a premium for, comparing it to equivalent products that are cheaper and perform the same, yet he's still going to make his next purchase another, by his own admission, overpriced Apple product.

Thank you for "bolstering" your argument with information that is mostly verifiable. You're mostly right in all your points and I will not deny that. The biggest issue is that there is nothing better we have out there. We have had monied interests control the money supply forever and Bitcoin is trying to take that power away from these interests.

> Ignoring what people have actually been using it for, the onus of proof is on YOU to tell ME why in the fuck we should use THIS system

Right now there is nothing better that we have which is accessible to the people and not controlled(as much as we know) by the governments in power. I also agree that if we had a better system we should use it.

The point I don't agree on is the 'no central authority" is a BAD thing'. I lived through multiple inflation bouts and have no want to repeat the same. Having the money creation out of the hands of the people who benefit the most is a good thing.
I fundamentally reject your notion that this changes anything other than your choice to dismiss what you see because you can no longer feel sure of your understanding of things you couldn't be sure of before either.

But then from early on I found a lot of attempted analysis of art shallow and often outright insulting in it's insistence of knowing intent that was often not there.

E.g. I recall an interview with a Norwegian author where the interviewer was terribly invested in the symbolism of a scene, and the author though for a moment and answered that he just thought it sounded good, and wished he'd thought of that.

In other words, while there certainly is intent behind a lot of art, your interpretation is yours. It may or may not even intersect with any authorial intent.

So why does it matter?

I've written two novels. I don't give the slightest shit if people interpret things in them how I intended. For the most part I just wanted to evoke certain feelings. There's no intentional symbolism there. Many things in the setting that I know people will interpret as a positive outlook I consider depressing - from my perspective its a dystopia, but I don't want to make it feel like that. But how people take it is entirely up to them.

The artists investment has no relevance to or bearing on my enjoyment of a work. Nor would I expect or care if that is the case when people engage with my own. (I get that people who make a living of human art are worried, and that is valid)

I for one look forward to consuming AI art when it is pleasing. I also still look forward to consuming human art when it is pleasing. And hybrids.

I really don't care which is which if it looks good to me, sounds good to me, reads well to me, makes me think, makes me feel.
> Given the reports of bullying's adverse effects of a society's productivity, I'm almost wondering if we should apply legal penalties to bullies and mitigate such externalities.

A beautiful idea which will not work, any more than resort to adult authority ever does in such cases. Three reasons:

Shallowly, first, the authority is not absolute and cannot be. There will always be opportunities for a bully to bully; trying to forbid this only makes it more appealing. A sufficiently interested bully won't let themself be avoided, and they find the appearance of vulnerability interesting because they're out for a good time and not a fight.

Shallowly and secondly, bullies rarely act like they do for the sake of pure sadism. There is usually some prior damage back of it. Heaping punishment on top thus tends to make them worse and not better, because they blame their own victims and treat them worse in consequence.

Deeply, bullying leaves a longlasting mark on people who have been made to feel helpless. Resorting to someone else to protect you does not ameliorate this. Learning to defend yourself does, because in doing it you discover that you don't need to resort to outside authority.

A bully puts you in fear. You learn you can take yourself out of it. It usually doesn't take long, and requires consistency much more than the ability to take a punch; once someone gets the idea you're guaranteed to give them a fight rather than the good time they want, they desist. Most childhood bullies can't fight for shit anyway, or at least most of mine couldn't.

> I would love to avoid bullies for the rest of my life. What kind of workplaces are least likely to have them?

Those where there's no access to money or power worth having. As far as I can tell, those are the primary incentives in adult life to which people respond with bullying behavior that has to be taken seriously.

That said, it looks like the situation in South Korea may be far worse than what I've seen. If it's as apparently universally described, I'd tend to think of it as a cultural pathology. (That's not American condescension, I promise. If anything, given the state of America these days, it's half professional opinion and half commiseration...)

This is incredibly insulting as I have no desire to control ownership of thoughts. What is otherwise involved, is production, intent and actually, yes, copyright. I have a case if the work I have released ends up in every Hilton Hotel Lobby.

> Putin has no broad support

Putin's support is so broad that he never dared to prove it with some real elections. But for some reason he only competes with candidates who were hand-picked by his administration and posses a very questionable reputation. And even against them he resorts to cheating and adding himself votes via various tricks. Broad support, right.
While probably a very good indicator, I refuse to deadlift out of principle. You have to be _really_ careful especially as you get more fit, as one mistake and you just wreck yourself for life.

And I’m not particularly risk averse (went on a motorbike ride in the mountains of vietnam last year). Just don’t see the gainz from that particular exercise worth the risks.

Show HN: Logseq and GTD (getting things done)
I'm a fan of Logseq and the second brain methodology.
I also recently read the "Getting things done" book by David Allen again ,and found that Logseq is the perfect tool to capture information, organise and process them with the GTD

Here's a blog article I wrote, to explain the concept for the uninitiated, and then how to add some queries in Logseq to speed up the workflow
GP's point is that fixing culture is approximately impossible. Culture evolves, but we have little direct control over it. But fixing something that is merely biology, now that is possible, because it takes science, engineering, and then you eventually get a direct solution that scales.

Of course the irony is that being "outside" is actually watching a live video recording of it from outer cameras on a screen in front of your face.

I'm not necessarily criticizing that - more thinking that we're likely approaching a fidelity threshold where you no longer care it's a screen (I still don't think we're quite there yet and suspect this is just one gen before the device that will survive the few months in VR great filter).
I call it OpenLIE. It's not open, not at all. Or call it GNU/OpenLIE, if you want to be pedantic.
Sure, but one of the big upsides of vr is the ability to move around a space. If you're just sitting at a desk (or on a couch) anyway then you might as well just have a couple of huge monitors. In the case of the vision pro it would even be cheaper to use several large monitors instead.
The main answer is probably, because the canaries have a very favorable climate. Some places are quite dry, but others have basically spring all around year.

Really interesting is, that that they came there by boat, but lost the ability to build boats or stopped doing so for whatever reasons, that they could not even travel between the islands anymore.

Maybe it is culturally, I met someone in La Palma who said La Palma is the best place in the world. And he didn't needed to actually go somewhere else to check. Always just been on the island. And it is a beautiful island.

But most old buried bodies showed signs of head injury, from fighting. So it probably was not only paradies back then (or is today).

Fun fact, there are now lots of hippies on the islands, living in caves again, eating mostly wild figs and almonds.

Some other interesting bit, the islands have lots of deep canyons, so the inhabitants of la gomera have invented a whistling language, to communicate.

A mistake we often make I believe is to focus on code-quality, rather than code-content-quality. Code is basically mathematics. Is it good math or bad that is the question. Does it do something useful, in an economical way.

To write great code, I believe, means you have to be a domain expert of the domain for which your code solves problems.
That sounds like "don't use this" to everyone I know; or is this meant to be a disclaimer and at the same time normalise the lack of privacy?
I can understand your concerns regarding the difficulty of enforcing of these anti-bullying policies.

What are some resources you would recommend to help learn how to stand up to bullies?

I am also rather skeptical that companies will prioritize providing emotionally healthy places. Bullies can be people in a higher position (seniority, ranking, etc) than their victims, and companies are incentivized to rule in favor of the bullies.
What statistics do we have of how many people pre-farming (before~7-10k BC) died early due to starvation or malnutrition?
Well, there are two “problems” with these kinds of blogs: a) They’re not that super easy to discover these days, and b) Writing high quality text takes time, and the authors tend to be quite busy people, so they are not updated frequently.

I guess that’s part of the appeal of Medium. They have a method for discoverability, and lots and lots of authors means lots of text to read. I’m not 100% sure exactly what my gripes with Medium are, but I guess that it feels a bit like a text factory. Personally, I prefer a more decentralized approach than what Medium offers.

However, I don’t use RSS at all. For me, finding blog posts via HN and Lobsters is sufficient – YMMV.

With that said, one of the best technical “blogs” I know of is actually a newsletter: Cryptography Dispatches.

It has a feed, I can warmly recommend it! https://words.filippo.io/rss/
I find it hard to believe that the first cars were less polluting (per unit of power) compared to modern cars.

> I don't use the NYtimes app; though I pay for a subscription. I do not accept advertising into my life. I think its wrong to let wealthy people have a shot at manipulating me. I trust the nytimes journalistic standards but not their advertising.

Manipulation is just the act of purposefully invoking an emotion. I think it's important to realize that manipulation is everywhere, all of the time.

The author remarked that he made a social media app for his kid to "understand." Getting his kid to use the app? That's manipulation!

The kid telling him "no" when he actually means "yes" or "not sure, but what happens if I say no"? That's also manipulation!

Traveling to the grocery store and looking at literally any product on a shelf? Manipulation masterclass.[0]

Reading _literally any_ article on the New York Times? This literal comment? You already know.

Thus, I think that rejecting advertising on the grounds of manipulation by "wealthy people" is misguided [1]. I personally go out of my way to block ads and trackers because I think they are extremely creepy, can suck bandwidth and slow page load times (if implemented poorly; many are) and can be vectors for malware.

One thing I learnt going from frontend development, to distributed system database, development, and then back:

These neanderthal grade tools have the same problem: attempting to abstract away unabstractible problems. The MO of said tools are to limit expressiveness rather than provide context or knowledge.

Take the multi-tab syncing you mentioned. Syncing will always take a loop and a buffer, assuming a channel of communication is not a problem. Those can be in a library, in a browser's built-in API, abstracted away, or you can write it by yourself. But when you don't write it, you don't have control over it (e.g. when to sync, how to interlace the syncing with other operations).

A better toolings work in the level of paradigm. Instead of simply abstracting, bring complexity to clarity and provide the learning ramp.
Does anyone on here know if this is due to the fact that it's a general vasodilator, or if there are specific pathways (eg: from activating prostacyclin and prostaglandin receptors) which have the effect of reducing tissue/bone damage?
While I have made a few OSS donations, I want to avoid doing so out of principle. I, a lone developer, should not be funding the work my peers do.

How much does openssl benefit me personally? How much does eslint? However much, it’s negligible to how much it benefits my employer. Which in turn is negligible to Google.

This is a responsibility that big tech ought to pick up, not random people.

Article is from 2022. I remember reading this news at the time and having a chuckle or two over it.
Interesting that the title bounces between the "virtues of a great programmer" and the "great virtues of a programmer", which have two very different meaning. I can get behind these "virtues" as being part of the psyche that drives programmers to do what they do, which is what I think was Larry Wall's original point. These have nothing to do with what makes someone a great programmer, though.

Life on a sailboat is mostly pretty boring.
It's not overblown, I assure you, it's widespread and "normal". In the US I saw kids getting thrown into dumpsters, or bullied over months - nasty psychological type, as well as physical beatings. Fortunately I was friends with older kids who protected me, but I felt sorry for some of my peers, who I'm sure were affected for the rest of their lives.

From my observation, it seemed bullying is group dynamics - it always involved a cluster of kids beating on a single child they picked out. It also reminded me of animal behavior, as a way of asserting who is part of the pack, and who is an outsider. And I think somehow it's related to the structure of institutions, like schools, sports, and military.
Would be good, if this brought incentive to change anything for the better, but it does not seem like it:

"His office has, however, denied the chief minister fell ill and said Mr Mann went to the hospital for a routine checkup."
I always wondered if he went back because he hoped to use his popularity after surviving the poisoning attempt to stir up enough chaos and somehow get into power. He probably felt if he even had a 5% chance he had to take it. Him being a narcissistic opportunistic politician makes a lot more sense to me than some heroic figure who risked his life for the Russian people.

American news media is all about the narratives and they love heroes and martyrs. I imagine in the next couple of weeks this guy will be turned into the Russian MLK of some kind, some comment here already made the comparison. It's just unreal how blatantly manipulative the whole thing is.
