> Another weird/fascinating factor for me at least is that less convenient access to a toilet seems to correlate with less symptoms. When I'm hiking in the mountains I never seem to have a high frequency of needing to take a dump.

Not Chron's but a related disease. For me the symptoms are strongly correlated with how embarrassing it would be if I had to go. So hiking in the mountains is pretty relaxed (unless it's a date or something), just find a spot off trail. In the chair at the dentist with instruments in your mouth and a bib on? All of a sudden I've gotta go.
315 KTAS cruising speed versus 180 is indeed a bit of a difference.

> Funny that the sci-fi got it backwards.

Sci-fi got it both ways.

Even in the eponymous "warp drive" sci-fi: Star Trek, The Federation's Prime Directive states that uncontacted civilisations are not to be contacted until they are capable of initiating contact themselves.

Usually this is by that civilisation achieving warp drive capabilities (which would allow that species to meet other species) but it can also happen with a species achieving subspace (faster-than-light) communications (which would allow that species to overhear or talk with other species).
To add on to what others have said, a good repl lets you point it at at a minimum of a file and load its contents into active state (so if you want access to a bunch of functions you load that file based on the command of the language you are in). You can then do the one lines you are talking about, but you could also update the file if you find you want to tweak a function and usually highlight and ctrl+enter to re-evaluate that one function, updating its state in the live environment. This way instead of recompiling the entire system you recompile that one function and anything using it now points to the new version.

F# actually has this and while it probably is not as powerful as Slime with CL it can give an idea of the power you are missing (and F#'s has gotten some nice improvements in the script side of .fsx files such as being able to add nuget files with a line in the script in newer versions).
This is totally unsurprising, but an interesting example of how people are expected to conform to “normal” behaviors. People that fall outside this narrow definition of what’s acceptable are still labeled “deviants” which is basically what the university is saying.

Also, the first amendment applies to the government restricting speech. A university is not the government so they are free to say that to be employed by the university you must not also do porn.

Bold moves by this guy, way to go in not being ashamed of who you are.
Look at the Morris, DeLong, etc. data in the article and it basically boils down to nothing pre-industrial revolution really mattered much including the Roman Empire, European declines post-Roman Empire, and the ups and downs in China over the millenia.
>Housing prices are still set by supply and demand. You can't charge LA prices in Atlanta no matter what kind of fancy scheme you run.

What you describe is the "price bracket" (say Atlanta vs LA, or good neighborhood in Atlanta vs bad neighborhood in Atlanta). Sure, you can't do that.

But the actual price has a lot of wiggle room inside that bracket, and apparently the final price is not (always) set by supply and demand, but (in cases such as this) by big landlords doing colluding price-fixing instead of competition. The demand not being very elastic, many will pay a little more, but only because unhealthy collusion has made options for less dissapear.
The claim may just be a result of how cause of death is determined.

One of, if not the most important financial decision you will make, is who you marry. If you decide to get married, take your time and do not make this decision lightly. Find someone whose financial goals are similar to your own. Mismatched financial philosophies (spender vs saver) and divorce are extremely costly especially as you gain wealth.
>Bold moves by this guy, way to go in not being ashamed of who you are.

Is porn-star an identity? It's a job. Some people sort trash, others fill Jira tickets, and others record themselves nude. Like drug dealing, it's highly profitable because the risk is built into the compensation. There ain't no such thing as a free lunch. If our society was A-OK with this then there would be no money in it.
When a better ROI of 4-5 months, you could just buy a new one when any of those things happen, and still be net positive.
> The man has objectively created some incredible businesses

Even this, you need to put asterisks on "created" because he spends so much time building out lies about the companies he runs/ran because the creation myth is so important. The amount of unforced errors behind his tenure at Paypal, a lot of it around trying to be taken as the guy who "made Paypal"... it's just very silly!

And I think ultimately in a place like HN, where there are supposedly a lot of "builder" types, when you hear every Musk company say "yeah the way we stay productive is to keep Musk out of things...." everyone's natural bias against bullshitters kick in!

I think it's hard to discount Tesla really pushing forward EVs. I think it's extremely easy to discount all of his other stuff if you're cynical (yes I include SpaceX in there, though it's easy for me because I think manned spaceflight, let alone "going to Mars", is extremely silly). But this stuff isn't really fungible...
Reminds me of mortal kombat X on the playstation 4. Starting it up I thought it was exactly like a shitty F2P mobile game. Full screen ads you have to click past just to get to the main menu, even more ads on the main menu once you get there, paywalled off characters and moves, time gates, etc. I can't imagine paying full price for a game and putting up with that shit. I picked it up years after release, paid less than $10 for a used copy, and before round 1 I was already feeling ripped off. I don't know how much of that crap was there from the start, but I know the game got good reviews when it came out.

I think that mobile games are a lost cause but I'm so happy that not all console/PC titles ended up being polluted by ads and greedy mobile game tactics. I picked up Stellar Blade a while back and was so happy to see that it included none of that garbage and that game was even made by a mobile game developer.
>The supply and demand of housing would be very different if a YIMBY policy agenda was in place

What about the investment in the house and the quality of life of those having the BY? Wouldn't that be very different also, if a serene place with fewer houses becomes a mass housing jungle?

Maybe cities could extend outwards instead of making existing BY hellishly dense?
The SR22 is a fully assembled and certified four seater. This is an experimental kit two seater that you have to assemble at least 51% yourself, so it's not really comparable. The base SR22 also has a more expensive electronics package from what I can tell.

The more expensive "ready to fly" kit is more comparable to a Cessna 172 in price, though with more than double the range. But you still have to assemble most of it yourself, the "Ready to fly" version isn't actually ready to fly.
More like just Hector and Alyssa. Asahi Lina isn't a real person, but more of a mascot.
In my experience, getting devops and infrastructure engineers to use Jupyter notebook specifically for SRE stuff is hard. What is working for is, in our new pivot is, you have to meet where the engineers are at. It could be Jetbrain's tools, VSCode or terminal. Otherwise the lift is always too much. In my opinion, Jupyter way might be better but still not good enough to cross over.
The idea I've heard is to dump many gigatons of hydrogen into the atmosphere to make H2O and elemental Carbon via the Sabatier reaction which will occur immediately with Venus' temperature. This gets rid of some of the CO2. The water will be part of the atmosphere, the carbon will rain down on the surface of the planet.

There will still be a lot of CO2 around though. Now you shade the planet with a giant sunshade and the atmosphere will cool down to the point where CO2 will snow out as dry ice after a couple decades of cooling. What you'll have left is a layer of carbon, followed by a layer of water ice, followed by a layer of dry ice. The atmosphere will be 2 - 3 times as dense as Earth's with almost entirely nitrogen gas. You use autonomous robots and mass drivers to collect and launch the excess dry ice into orbit.

Once you've got most of the CO2 ice out you remove the sunshade and the planet will very quickly thaw out. The planet will be covered mostly in oceans at this point with a thick nitrogen and CO2 atmosphere. At this point use genetically modified algae and microbes which, using the plentiful sunlight, can quickly convert the high CO2 atmosphere into oxygen and organics for the soil. The planet may still need some minor solar shading to keep the temps down until the CO2 approaches earth levels. Introduce Earth life to build a natural biosphere and voila! You've got a whole new Earth whose biosphere should be able to sustain life for millions of years!
160 hp seems a little disappointing considering the original merlin-powered variant had 1,490 hp. i realize this thing is a lot lighter, but would’ve been really cool to see a turboprop or more power.
Yes, it does appears so to the extent I have explored.
> But for Dev compute. That was the context of the DHH conversation.

My point was exactly that internal use cases still has a reliability/scalability factor.

> it is making more and more sense to self-host either on prem or in a data center

I'd say it's the other way around. Automation improvements, infrastructure as code and less knowledge has meant Cloud now makes sense. Back in the days it was a lot easier to find people skilled in self-hosting and the common language was something like Redhat and not AWS. Self-hosting didn't meant getting internal networking and stacks enough to run kubernetes. You'd have a single server or 2 and that was it. It's a totally different game.

> I have never seen a big three providers cloud costs per $ for a given machine ever reduce

It has in a lot of ways, e.g. similar prices for faster CPUs (newer generation) and e.g. with AWS getting 2 real cores vs 1 (core) + 1 (thread).

The problem is server hardware is cheaper. Electricity, rent (data center) and wages is not. This growing cost eats into self-hosting a lot more than the hardware savings. The prices not going up is actually already a cost saving. Most data centers want to up your contract by at least inflation % per year if not more.

Because even if big, demand is limited by what people can actually pay.

You can price-fix and collude with other big home-owning landlords to milk your buyers, but to a point. Beyond that people just wont rent and move away, downscale as much as they can to smaller appartment, find roomates, or try to move back to their parents.

It can be both right? Some people get paid as software developers because they love to build things. Some people post themselves having sex because they love exhibition or because they consider it art. Either way, what should it matter? It’s not illegal and nobody is forcing you to watch it.

I disagree with you on many points.

I do not claim that not using macros means that one cannot use Lisp usefully or profitably. It's a wonderful language even without macros, and I'm sure I'm preaching to the choir by listing all the reasons why.

However, I do think adamantly that the "point" of Lisp really is syntactic abstraction. Why have S-expressions, code-as-data, symbolic data types, etc. otherwise? All of that is there to enable syntactic abstraction.

If out-of-the-box Lisp is sufficient to express solutions to your problems reasonably, then I would wholeheartedly agree to not write macros. But if it doesn't? Well, Lisp is ready to offer a platform to make it happen.

Lisp macros have been given a bad rap because of the plethora of almost useless examples of them. In any beginner book about Lisp, much ink will be spilt in little shorthands, like aif, with-gensyms, etc. Better examples would be actual, real life DSLs people use, like LOOP, lexical analyzers, web server routing, parallelization primitives, static typing, infix notation, etc. Things where gobs of functions and classes don't really capture the best way to denote the solution to a problem.

Learning about macros, then being advised to never use them, to me, is miscommunication at best, a grave misunderstanding at worst.

Alyssa strikes again with some amazing coding wizardry. I don't know how she does it, but I'm glad she's fighting the good fight.
Is this satire? It reads like it is.

““systemic risks” to society are minimized.”

These people are shitting their pants because the electorate have had enough of their nonsense and voting accordingly so clearly something must be done!

They wanna blow up the Middle East. They wanna blow up Eastern Europe. They want us to absorb all of the people that flee the war we create.

How about I’ll vote against that and nothing you can do on Facebook will change that.
> He has an extremely dark side that impedes him and everyone around him,

His dark side is out in the open for everyone to see. What you are saying is the people prefer someone who is apparently appears not have a dark side. IMO such people are just adept at camouflaging their dark side, politicians do it routinely.

>That man need a therapist.

Well, IMO it's mostly the public that needs therapists.

I think to a university administrator, money is paramount. So they are worried about donors, they are worried about alumni, they are worried about state and federal funds, and they are worried about the attitudes of the parents of prospective students.

Free speech on campus is a very distant concern, to be taken out and dusted off when there’s no real money at stake.

Not a great article.

Assuming they really found a problem, it's in just one RISC-V core design, a student project, which is not used commercially -- at least directly: one of the original BOOM designers used it as the basis for the ET-Maxion core at Esperanto. It may be that some Chinese organizations have picked it up too.

Regardless, it is not an issue with the RISC-V specification.
This is yet another editorial that rehashes cliches about "toxic masculinity" and the "loneliness epidemic." Not to say these cliches don't have a basis in reality, but let's remember that this is an editorial whose purpose is to drive sales of the guest author's book.

The author, Ruth Whippman, is a "current affairs" journalist and documentary maker. In other words, she has made a career of picking trending pop-psychology topics and writing fluff commentary on them. Her books have subtitles like "Why are we driving ourselves crazy and how can we stop?"

Having said this, one pattern in how adult men behave emerges very clearly, at least to me, living in a middle-class US suburb. Men don't have a habit of building community. Women do.

For example, my suburb and neighboring ones have subreddit communities. Those subs regularly get posts from new arrivals who have trouble finding friends.

On average, female posters mostly get responses from other women, and most of the responses are about making plans to exchange contacts, get together as a group, and try activities together.

On average, male posters get grouchy responses from other men telling them that they aren't trying hard enough or creatively enough.

Women in my area have built social organizations that reach out to female newcomers and try to pair them up with other women looking for activity partners. Men have not.
We don’t entirely understand it which is precisely why it’s important to have a specialist you can discuss this type of thing with. That specialist has access to your full medical history as well as the ability to run tests against any things you may decide to try. Legitimate medical and scientific breakthroughs don’t get leaked in conspiracy theory forums or on podcasts. Blindly trying something a Joe Rogan guest swears is a natural cure that Big Pharma is suppressing is a bad idea. It’s the kind of decision making that can cause something manageable to become significantly worse… look at Steve Jobs.

Trust your doctors, believe the science.
>So, you're saying that supply and demand are indeed real with housing.

Price fixing doesn't eliminate supply and demand entirely or make demand elasticity vanish.

What it eliminates is real competition among sellers ("fixing" the supply curve).

It raises prices - it doesn't magically make any asking price feasible.

Not finding demand to suddenly ask for $2M for a two bedroom house in Kirkwood is not some proof "hey, supply and demand is working just fine".

This is a shame that many gay people in professional spaces have to deal with every day. Sure sexual orientation is a protected class. But who on the HR team, the C-suite, your senior engineering team, etc. secretly thinks you’re a disgusting sexual deviant? That your voice is “unprofessional”? There are activities that are completely normal in gay circles that would get you put on HR’s shortlist if you ever mentioned them. Makes the whole “bring your whole self to work” business laughable.
