As an aspiring actor in 1990, mastering the art of memorizing lines accurately has been a journey of both discipline and discovery. Initially, I struggled with the sheer volume of text, often feeling overwhelmed by the task. However, I soon realized that understanding the context and emotional underpinnings of my character was crucial. I began by breaking down the script into manageable sections, focusing on the motivations and relationships within each scene. I still felt repetition was my ally; I would recite lines repeatedly, both silently and aloud, until they felt second nature. Additionally, I found that visualizing the scenes and physically moving while rehearsing helped to cement the dialogue in my memory. Techniques like recording my lines and listening to them during commutes or integrating them into daily activities proved invaluable. Collaborating with fellow actors also enhanced my retention, as it allowed me to react organically and authentically during practice sessions. Over time, these methods coalesced into a robust strategy, enabling me to deliver my lines with confidence and precision, fully embodying the characters I portray.
As the father of a middle school student, I whole-heartedly support this. Hopefully other states will follow suit.
> So we had twice the code we needed.

Was that necessarily a bad thing and something that must be corrected for that code base?

I usually follow the same rule of thumb until I find myself repeatedly
updating both at the same time. If I can't update one without updating the other then they must be the same thing and its time to DRY.

Don't Repeat Yourself when updating code.
Multiple generations is perhaps an overstatement. The first oxygen in the Universe came from what we call Population III stars which is the first generation of stars to form after the Big Bang and what separates these from other stellar populations is that they do not have elements heavier than hydrogen or helium (except for minuscule traces left over from the Big Bang but these are insignificant). Now we don't know much about Population III stars but many models predict they are massive and when they die, can release 60 times the mass of our sun in the form of oxygen. That's really a lot of oxygen so you don't need too many of these to go off to pollute the early Universe and probably one of the reasons why we haven't yet found Population III stars.
Expectations vs reality w.r.t. US SCOTUS being overly political is a hotly debated topic of late.

I wholeheartedly agree that the board's communication and how they handled the firing was woefully naive and extremely poorly done.

That said, you may have missed it but Toner alleged some very specific instances of lying and withholding information from the board: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40506582. That's very different from "vague and non-specific character attacks".

And, importantly, 4 total board members agreed that was the right action to take.
For all the crap the EU has been giving Apple lately for stuff as dumb as being unable to install the built-in gallery app on iOS -- why the HELL are they not shoving Microsoft's face in their own puddle of piss that is the current state of Windows? No one is using Windows because they like it. They're using it because they have to, and Microsoft has absolutely abused this position they're in to such an egregious extent I can't believe they get looked over for these practices. We're all stuck having our data collected and shipped off to hundreds of third-parties, being forced to look at ads, lose work because of forced restarts that reset the few opt-out-of-this-bullshit settings you can still toggle, click through mazes of menus every update that try and trick you into setting Edge as your default browser and signing up for their cloud services, etc. -- all because it's the only place certain software runs.

And they can't even make a search that works as good as it did 15 years ago because instead of even attempting to look for your local files it'll show you ads and Bing search results that can only be opened in Edge. Their old basic photo viewer app of the Windows 7 is long gone and replaced with a janky "modern" Windows app that crashes if you look at it funny. Windows is just so bad and only getting worse over time.
That doesn't necessarily follow; a person could easily argue that Chrome won because Google abused its search monopoly to push it, then kept winning because of inertia. Unless your friends specifically prefer Chrome because of UX reasons, it could be unrelated.

This seems like a natural progression of allowing ships to be flagged in countries that barely even have foreign affairs outside of ships (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_convenience). That seems like a good place to start - ports would benefit from only allowing docking if your ship is flagged in a country with some definition of seaworthiness
Ultimately I've had to get to a point where I realize I'm grateful for the life I live now, and accelerating through school would have changed a lot of it, such that I probably wouldn't have met some of the people most important to me, so I'm grateful for it in the long run. But I don't know that I'll ever stop wondering, and it's not a comparative gratitude, because I'm sure my life could have become beautiful like this in other ways. It's more a practice of radical acceptance with gratitude.

I will say one of the things that always made me laugh was that at each milestone, like finishing elementary school and starting middle school, my parents would try to tell me now it would be different, because I was at a higher level. I remember pointing out to them all the same doofuses from the previous years were moving up right along with me, and it wasn't just that I was ahead of them, but that I was faster, so this didn't seem to help. I never did understand why they thought that would work!
Yes, and they occasionally drive into stationary objects at high speed.
As long as it doesn’t interfere with you performing your contractual duties to your employer? Sure. Although that can include showing up to work tired because you spent your night tending a bar, using knowledge acquired at your primary job for your side gig, or being unfocused in meetings because you constantly think about the other venture.

So instead, you might just want to check with your employer beforehand and talk about what they’re cool with. Something Sams could have chosen to do, but did not, apparently.

I remember around 2012 Firefox did use to have tab grouping, and they dropped the functionality after. I remember a friend of mine being annoyed for that, although I myself didn't appreciate much the functionality.
It's the opposite for me on Linux. Firefox can play 4k 60fps perfectly, while Chrome drops frames and gets hot. I guess hardware-accelerated video is hard to get right.

I genuinely can't tell if you are malicious, or easy to convince. The line about the non profit was mindboggling. You know that is just a business structure? It has nothing to do with profits weirdly enough.

>But you haven't presented any evidence of widespread illegal activity.

Its an immoral activity to corner a market, take tax dollars, lower quality for consumers, and raise prices. Its not illegal.
> Because it seems like you're missing the point, Chris.

No. I'm just not interested in your point.

If your article had been about Sell Before Building as per the HN title, I would have been.

But it isn't. Its just yet another article about market research before building.

My point was that the title and contect fail to accord. If you really do think that needs explanation, then you've misjudged the target audience's IQ.
Justice Roberts, for instance, has had wildly conflicting and inconsistent reasoning behind striking down the federal healthcare mandate over the years. A cynical person would conclude that may have a little to do with his friendships with healthcare executives that "loan" him many hundreds of thousands of dollars he didn't report. Just one example

Where "business software" is, in particular, the software for running a business. Your CAD or simulation software or development environment may all be fully-supported on Linux, but that means nothing, because corporate wants their SharePoint and Exchange servers and analytics attached to them, and corporate IT in particular wants their "security" software and remote management capabilities. All of that is what chains larger companies to Windows.

Yes. Especially at the beginning when it's critical to ensure that the logic is correct.

You can then go back and DRY it up while making sure your unit tests (you did write those, right?) still pass.

What?

Out of HS at 18, BS at 22, MD at 26.... then what? At least 2 years of residency (PGY1, 2) and you're 28. And then what are you doing for the next SIX years before you're earning wages? Uhhh.

> lower middle class life until 50 while paying of medical school debts

I work as a paramedic, and have multiple provider friends, from family practice, to EM to anesthesiology. While the anesthesiologist is 40 and already owns a book store, and multiple homes, none of the others are wallowing in the "lower middle class". You can pay a lot of student loans at the $300-350K EM residents make in this area.

> barely be in the top 10% after that

I think you're exaggerating on top of exaggeration.

The top 10% line would be at $86K/year.

Let's be more real. Public Health pays the lowest physician salary, averaging at $249K/year. That already puts you in the 2%.

Cruise on up the ladder and Gastro, Cardio, Ortho and Plastics all are north of $500K.

Yes, there is malpractice insurance, and it's not negligible (and some networks will provide allowances to providers for this). But it's also fairly linear to specialty and income, and often not as much as assumed. Obstetrics, as expected, is the highest, at ~$42K (with average salaries of $390K), family practice averages around $10K, and even my anesthesiologist friend is only paying around $13-15K/year.

> The amount of radiative forcing could lead to a doubling (or more) of the warming rate in the 2020 s compared with the rate since 1980 with strong spatiotemporal heterogeneity. The warming effect is consistent with the recent observed strong warming in 2023 and expected to make the 2020 s anomalously warm. The forcing is equivalent in magnitude to 80% of the measured increase in planetary heat uptake since 2020.

Truly, all bets are off for being able to predict the climate going forward

Your problem is that you don't have a termination criterion, so I propose this:

1. Write the product and tech specs. This lets you know when your work is done.

2. Propose an architecture that meets it, and move on. Don't overengineer it.

3. Implement the architecture.

> I think they should pick 2-5 things and focus on those, such as multi-device sync, privacy, speed, battery life performance, customization, etc.

They did; they've been pushing on speed and privacy for a long time. It mostly turns out that the problem isn't usually technical superiority, unfortunately. (The problem is that Microsoft shoves Edge in users' faces every chance they get, and Google has been giving Chrome an unfair advantage for ages (notice that when people complain about Firefox being slow, it's usually on Google sites).)

I'm under the impression that lopsided decisions are actually the more common outcome in cases before the supreme court. That it's the ideologically divided ones that are outliers, even if they garner most of the media attention. Is that incorrect?
> you’re just using HTTP as a substrate for some other protocol, in which case you might as well just open a port and serve that protocol directly and not pretend to be HTTP.

Browser does not allow to access any ports with any protocols.

Often intermediate software gets in the way as well. For example with Kubernetes it's trivial to expose HTTP service using Ingress and it's not trivial to expose other protocols.

Another HTTP plus is that it's trivially secured by TLS and every developer knows API for that. Using TLS for your own protocol or QUIC is absolutely not trivial and probably more like arcane knowledge.
> and wanted to prevent civil servants saying negative things about the NRA

You should read some of the ruling, because that's absolutely not what happened. The civil servant can say anything she wants under her power as a private citizen. What she can't do is use the power of her office to impose her will on the industries she regulates, and that is what the Supreme Court said she did.

It could be that you have an anxiety disorder, obsessive personality disorder or OCD. Or perhaps not, but the obvious red flag is trouble sleeping. If you’re typically a good sleeper but find yourself sleepless when in one of your spirals it's a good indicator that you need to take a step back, take a deep breath and reset your mental state because its not the refactoring thats not letting you sleep its all the stuff that you have built up in your head.

Also complete rewrites in general are overwhelming and tend to turn out not the way you imagined anyway. Small incremental improvements and isolated refactors over a sustained period of time yield the best results.

This was my experience. My guess some combination of teachers losing control and being under pressure from helicopter parents led to either policy change or their looking the other way.
That is the correct behavior. If only one lane is stopped its far more likely to stretch back and block an exit that does not need to be blocked.

That's not exactly accurate. Schools were heavily encouraged to apply the policy from the start of the school year, and most of them did so. The policy was an official requirement from the start of this school term, at which point it had already been school policy at the vast majority of schools.

I can see how this can happen at a large corporation. The way companies operate, they usually order somebody (most likely a contractor) to create media. Then pass these to another team that creates website, press materials, etc. A picture is a picture is a picture, and information about which camera took it is probably not passed.
That's effectively the judges arguing merits amongst themselves. I would actually think this a good thing. "I'll give you a paid vacation in a posh RV and flights on a private jet" is absolutely a totally different animal.
Yes agreed with all of that. I'm sure this was handled... carefully.
or maybe the thing ruining kids is

1) That their freerange land has been wiped out and replaced with narrow strips of moving vehicles. Kids have ~no alternatives to being cooped up in adult-filled buildings.

2) False stranger danger alarms have wiped out peer time and 20k years of adultfree self-sufficiency training.

3) Wiping out multi-generational households and walkable communities. Kids used to have many parenting adults but have two. Or one. Or none.

4) Besides needing the wisdom of 100, parents now need to parent 24/7, every day of every week of every year. It's massively more time than the last x0000 years.

Maybe what is ruining kids are adults who've eliminated kids' natural growth builders and now are hell bent on sabotaging their last peer connector.
I don't know, that sounds like a complex kind of ingest which could be arbitrarily subtle and diverge over time for legal and bureaucratic reasons.
