The most important negotiating advice in all circumstances (including this one) is to do some specific prep.

Firstly work on what negotiators call your "BATNA" (best alternative to a negotiated agreement). Figure out what it is and see what you can do to improve it. In this case, it's another dealership with a better offer or figuring out you can stick it out with your beat-up car a bit longer or whatever. But think through what happens if you can't agree. Then your decision is very simple. If what they offer you (when all's said and done) is not better than your BATNA you walk away. Don't allow yourself to be put under pressure to do a deal you don't like.

The second piece is to be super-clear specifically what your payoff is (in this case price) and maximise that. People often try to confuse the picture by getting you to negotiate on stuff that isn't to do with your payoff (eg throwing in a higher spec or free servicing or high-lifting doorhandles or whatever stuff you don't actually care about). Getting finance before you walk in to a dealership is part of this strategy - what you're doing is taking away levers that they could otherwise use to get you away from negotiating about your payoff or get you to compromise on your payoff itself. If you consider you have a finite number of negotiating bullets you want to spend those maximising your payoff and they are trying to get you to fire off-target.

Next-level thinking on the payoff question is to think about what their payoff might be and try to use that to your advantage. You can often "concede" things you don't actually care about that increase their payoff but don't really cost you anything in return for an improved payoff for yourself. You will absolutely miss this if you have a "zero-sum" mindset. Not super-applicable here but an extremely important and overlooked concept in negotiations in general. You can also use knowledge of their payoff to strengthen your hand. Like say you knew when the sales quotas for the dealership came due or that a new model of this particular car was about to come out - the sales person might be under extra pressure to sell which would improve your bargaining power.

Final point is check your ego at the door. You are trying to maximise payoff not "beat" the other side in the negotiations. Not everything is a zero sum game and if you get too concerned about an ego victory you are probably sacrificing some payoff you could otherwise have had. It's fine for the other side to think they absolutely took you to town if you get everything you want from the negotiation.
Are there other macronutrients in that much mass of food?

30g of Hemp Hearts (shelled hemp seeds) have 10g protein, 12g polyunsaturated fats (Omega 3 and 6), 1g sugar, and a bunch of other vitamins and minerals; but some brands have 2.3g Manganese (which 100% RDI) and Manganese toxicity occurs beyond 11mg (UL) and other brands don't have those nutrients listed on the nutrition facts label for their similar product:
https://images.app.goo.gl/a2v9imfaWWyG5hSn8

Flax has a better Omega 6:3 PUFA polyunsaturated fats ratio, but only 2g protein out of 11g.

Manganese and MSG both have something to do with Glutamate, which apparently affects motivation;
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35885204 :

>> High glutamine-to-glutamate ratio predicts the ability to sustain motivation: The researchers found that individuals with a higher glutamine-to-glutamate ratio had a higher success rate and a lower perception of effort.

Yes, I think many things are fun or exciting, often for diverse reasons.

ER is fun because, eg, https://forums.studentdoctor.net/threads/patients-per-hour.1...

I do some radiology in the ER. I do find this fun. The core skill of radiology is to find stuff in pictures and then communicate these findings to others. Just like I did as a scientist, which I also found fun and exciting.

I also find it fun to do research in molecular imaging. I suspect I would further have fun researching AI techniques that may allow us to replace some or all of the human work of radiologists with computers. (I suspect "all" will never happen, for the same legal reasons that I suspect we'll never have real self-driving cars. Humans need, um, human scapegoats.)

However, yes, I also have chronic sciatica, or back pain. It gets worse the longer I sit. I don't like standing still enough to use stand desks and treadmills are distracting. Clearly being a radiologist and sitting in a dark room for hours at a time would not be good for this pain.

This is yet another reason I got out of full-time programming.
But I just outlined how to be more rich than almost anyone in the country, in both real estate and disposable income available to you, with 40 seconds of thought. Maybe you can't own a 2.9 million dollar home on 400k, but you could own multiple of the homes most of us are looking for without blinking. Able to be a landlord at any point and charge rent to pay off a mortgage on a 400k home for you. Do that 3 or 4 times and you have your 2.9 million. Maybe even spend many people's annual salary to have someone take care of those properties as rentals for a few years amd/or renovate them, because that barely puts in a dent in the pocketbook.

400k is far more freedom than most people could ever dream of.
I agree with this sentiment. At work our main codebase is in Rust and early on we wrote some CI tooling using the cargo xtask workflow and it adds a lot to compile times when we need to rebuild it (which is often since it depends on several of our main codebase's crates). It really kills iteration times.

This is a mess and added a lot of extra complexity to the build pipeline since now we had to manage an additional xtask container. Python is very well suited for CI scripting, xtask should only be used for things directly run by the developer, and even then Python may be a better choice for most things.
Since a few years I'm developing a free and open source tool for D&D and TTRPGs in general, that let's you design handy printouts to print on thermal printers.

I think many more people were accused of playing Nomic in heated Usenet discussions than actually ever played Nomic…
That’s a statement that comes up a lot. And while it is technically true, it really isn’t in practice. We can and do design systems to expose less of their surfaces that represent open knifes and more of the safe handle side. It is near universally true, that the easier to access way is the one that will be taken more often.

To be fair to C, it was designed long before we as a society really appreciated that. So there is a lot of old code whose authors just couldn’t know better. And some (probably few) will even have managed to write readable code! But that doesn’t mean that languages can’t encourage good behavior and discourage bad. (I’m not even sure where I come down wrt Rust here)
And that will (somewhat reliably) end in better or worse code. Not necessarily in a reliable way. But it’s e.g. really hard to write python code where local control flow isn’t reasonably obvious (since scoping is enforced by white space). Not impossible of course
Shockingly ignorant statement from Hovenkamp, one of the most well-known antitrust law academics. Perhaps he has been retained by Big Tech. Or the journalist took the statement out of context.

"We know perfectly well what we are doing"...? Whether meant literally or sarcastically, this is hubristic. We have imperfect knowledge of a complex system. We cannot know perfectly well what we are doing, even if "what we are doing" is a few serving their own interests.

Given the resultant comment section I clicked into the article expecting the most sith-like of absolutist proclamations taking itself extremely seriously and actively fanning arbitrary ideological flames.

Instead I found a concise, measured and sane opinion that I honestly can’t disagree with. Like, sure, if your language broadly supports the secondary use case (scripting) why not? If it doesn’t, then the juice almost certainly won’t be worth the squeeze.
How else can it get better?
Could you please let us know what the misunderstood meanings for those words are.

I legitimately only know one meaning for each of those and from a quick look in a dictionary my understanding of those words seem to stem from the original meaning.

Restricting the freedom to keep local files local (that is, privacy) when operating a services business is the opposite of freedom.

It makes sense that you need to distribute sources when distributing binaries. It does not make sense to force people to disclose private internal business operations when operating a service. In fact, software licenses can’t do that - only EULAs can.

Services are not software.
I checked your blog and I am impressed you are still very curious to learn things which didn't exist before you retired (generative AI).
If stuck, investigate immigration requirements for New Zealand. 30% of our population was not born in New Zealand - our population growth and GDP depends on immigration.

Tradies, Nurses, heavy equipment operators, bunch of categories: https://www.immigration.govt.nz/new-zealand-visas/preparing-...

https://www.immigration.govt.nz/new-zealand-visas/visas/visa... Says "Length of stay: Indefinitely, Age range:
55 or younger, Cost: From NZD $4290, With this visa you can
Live, work and study in New Zealand. Include your partner and dependent children aged 24 or younger in your visa application.".

Maybe a long shot but worth considering.

Still an okay place to bring up kids, particularly in small town NZ (<5000).
A dam is many things; is it for generating electricity? Is it political or ideological? Does it give a geographical advantage? Is it extortionate? Is it for drinking water? Is it beavers? This thing doesn't explain what it thinks a dam is.

In my experience most SQLite writes take less than 1ms.

Do your writes really need to be concurrent if they run that fast?

Hard to get upset about waiting for the current write to complete before you get your turn when we are talking delays measured in thousandths of a second.

If you have more than 1000 writes per second then maybe this is something to worry about. The solution there is probably to run a slightly more powerful server!

I know nothing about economics so please enlighten me: with the yen weakening, does it affect inflation in japan? Say 10 years ago I can have 1 nigiri for 100 yen, which was about $1 back then, does that mean I can have 1.5 nigiri now or inflation catches up and turn out I still can only buy 1 nigiri?
Oh please. I don’t think I need to explain the flaw in this logic
Sure, I'm not saying what the ideal trade-off is. I'm just saying:

- The current accident rate due to lack of redundancy isn't too awful.

- Adding redundancy increases cost, even when it seems like you have the same total power or whatever.

My bias is towards a bit more redundancy than we have now, but not massive changes.
That's exactly my point, and I still got downvoted.

An Awk Implementation
Even ignoring that those might not be built-in (at least for zsh), I can't imagine this matching unique part in the middle of a command from history without explicit action (that would be terrible UX).

And when you have multiple similar commands in your history that only differ somewhere in the middle, you don't want completion, you want searching.
Oh I forgot to mention the Einstein joke! Since I read the books, I could figure it out, but that was unexpected. I suspect that it was setting up for a dark forest punchline in season 2.

In fact, it seems like they rearranged the exposition from the books just to lay some groundwork for the later seasons. I don't know if this series is supposed to go three seasons, but if the book 3 fairy tales don't come until season 3, it's cool that they set that up in season 1.

Taking off metal jewellery in the scanner is about the worst thing one can do - it’s then loose. It would be very unlikely to move from a clenched fist, even if ferromagnetic. However having it escape your hand isn’t that difficult.

I like the idea of having enough cash to pay off the loan immediately but having the loan (and interest arbitrage, however small) to keep myself liquid + make the monthly cashflow of My Personal Self, LLC, work for me in more optimized ways.

The credit score boosting as a result is also attractive.

But I recognize this requires me to have that much liquid cash anyways. Which a lot of people don’t so they get unfortunately put on the losing side.

Whether or not it’s a conductor is probably more of a concern. The loop likely wouldn’t be large enough to cause any drama though.
I always do this (and have always done), but then again, I don’t take out loans of any kind; I rather have no car. I play dumb until we have a price and then pay cash; some want to renegotiate at that point, and so I walk away; there are enough dealers.

I actually enjoy reading ads in enthusiast magazines (those few that remain for computing, gaming, musical instruments and technology, etc.)

It's a shame that magazines are mostly dead at this point. If you ever look at old computing magazines on the internet archive, it's like stepping into a rather wonderful alternate timeline before the web asteroid hit. (The irony of reading those magazines on the web is not lost on me.)
Python can be annoying for scripts because they are often hard to run on another machine due to the dependency story.

I think Go scripts have a much better odd of “just working”with only the Go toolchain installed.

It may be rare in the lifetime of the bridge, but if there is a variable which has change (or is moving) then that isn't so important a consideration.

There will always be someone with more money to point at.

Meanwhile, in the rest of the country, $400,000 would pay almost all people's rent at least 5 times over. It would pay the average rent in Manhattan 5 times over. It would pay my rent 30 times over.

I would say being able to afford property in one of the most expensive places on earth qualifies as "rich".
> You have been fully exploited.

That's a bit harsh. "Content" can mean a wide variety of things, and smartphones/tablets are capable of displaying such a wide variety of things.

We strive to curtail our own usage of devices around our young daughter at home. The extent of her screen time is maybe 1-2 movie nights per month.

But she and I do around 5-10 minutes of Duolingo/Pimsleur every day. She asks every morning if we're going to "do French" today (even though we switched to Hungarian for most of this year).

Are we fully exploited?
