> We've already come to a decisive conclusion on this

Have we, really?

In the professional sports there's WADA and similar agencies, that, obviously, have to push this idea really hard (and make everyone believe that everyone else thinks so, because this is how you do it in modern times). But that's because that's what's literally keeping them afloat. But they're already struggling, trying to figure out what to do those gender-to-chemicals mismatches. And as sciences and societies evolve, I suspect it's only going to get more interesting, and I have this hunch that this status quo has cracks in its foundation and will likely shatter in the future.

They also have to make sure that athletes are safe enough and don't just wreck themselves - which makes things a quite bit different. Unless we count risks of issues in some people with predisposition to toxicity, that is associated with cheat use /s (no love for those folks).

But back to the "have we" question - do people actually care about all this stuff in non-professional sports when played recreationally? (Just like video games.) I really doubt so. People just try to balance around it, fixing the matchmaking rather than players.

But - you certainly have a point - I would suggest to exclude professional scene entirely and narrow the scope strictly to recreational gaming. Pro sports and e-sports are more controversial.
Maybe there's something disfunctional about an economic system that lets ordinary people set up complex product and distributions systems, and then take all the money from them forever.

There's something in Europe called VAT that addresses this.

It's important to come up with some kind of solution. When the current system reduces to a single purveyor for every product sector, which we're heading for at breakneck speed right now, there will be only a few people owning the whole shebang, and nobody to buy the products because nobody else is needed/has a job at all.
NASA loses money and time waiting and helping Boeing to perform. And then they get minimal performance, given the program and company's now chronic underperformance.

Meanwhile, SpaceX provides a solid tested path forward. Despite the single sourcing.

I see a negotiated retreat, favorable to all parties. Likely in some incremental way to minimize attention and backlash. I.e. delay, study, delay, negotiate, delay, close up shop.

Parterships operating under a legal gun don't really operate. And are not conducive to safety concerns.
Yea, really it seems the vast majority of privately owned news groups of any size are a means to control policy in a state/country.
Fascinating how Elon is now "He Who Must Not Be Named" villain.

Every single success and victory that SpaceX achieved, from the fourth flight of Falcon-1 to the latest Starship test flight bears his name too.
Strange idea but it might work.
I feel you're missing the forest for the trees... You're advocating a policy of the ultra rich not having to pay tax during their lifetime because it's less complicated.

I understand you're viewing it as a tax increase as the estate pays less tax on death under the current system, but sometimes you need to realise you're stuck in the overton window.

In general, Uranium fission processes are relatively less nasty than the material mixed with decommissioned weapons grade Plutonium. You would need to model the probabilistic decay chains to figure out at which point the hot material is below inhalation hazard levels.

"The reason that solar and wind haven't fallen victim to this is that they don't scale well enough"

That is a dumb lie, these have already exceeded non-renewable facilities in many jurisdictions last year. While not perfect in every locale, I like distributed solar+battery as they are resilient to localized disasters. Note, many in TX and FL have already shifted over due to faster <8yr payoff periods (i.e. an 18 year service life means near $0/kWh for 10 years).

Fission is a nonrenewable loss leader technology, and should be reserved for remote areas or space missions. =3
So many levels of irony at work here.
I can only speak for myself but AI has had a profound effect on my coding. I really can't imagine going back and search engines and API docs are not even in the same ballpark. I wrote a bit on why here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41350824

A common objection is that the rich will 'just move' to avoid taxes. However, he goes in depth in his response, pointing out that the source of the wealth can't move, you tax that at the source.

Firefox uses unified builds, where a bunch of .cpp files are globbed together and compiled at once. That helps a lot, but a build still takes a bit of time unless you are on an absurdly fast machine. Chrome used to also support this, called "jumbo builds", but they didn't want to deal with the maintenance overhead. Presumably all of the Chrome developers employed by Google are using some kind of massive distributed build infrastructure so there's little impact of slower builds on individual developer productivity, so the use case of building on a single computer is not as prioritized.
"It felt like procrastination, a tech version of a bullet journal." There's a lot out there that certainly falls under what I call "procrasturbation," but the Bullet Journal is ironically the thing I've stuck with the longest. Ryder Carroll came up with a formalization of the concept more recently, but I've been using it since 1999, prompted by the removal of our backpacks due to Columbine.

I think the thing that a lot of folks miss is that it's a framework that's meant to grow incrementally with how you go through life and work.

Without a bag to keep everything together, I got tired of misplacing my notebooks, one for each class, so I started living out of only one at a time, which then led me to set up a sort of table of contents and numbered pages so I could find things. It also let me cope with my as-yet-undiagnosed OCD and ADHD by giving me the permission just to start at whatever page and treat the bound pages as a linked list instead of an array. (Bonus: the table of contents became a sort of allocation bitmap.)

Homework due dates and holidays and birthdays begat calendars of various sorts, inconsistent study habits begat habit trackers, notes from class meetings begat dailies wherein I braindump about whatever, etc., but none of that happened overnight. It built up over months to years.

Journaling is about the stuff you want to remember later so that you can reflect on it. Most of my entries involve doting on my cats (so many days where I'm just like, "Valérian was an aggressively cuddly purrbucket again" or "Laureline brought me another sock from the hamper") and, like, "on a lark, I dug out my old ThinkPad to find it actually isn't inoperative."
No they have not.

SpaceX received fixed price contracts at lower prices than Boeing's and then delivered on those contracts, ferrying 7 full crews and one test crew to and from ISS with an 8th full crew about to return and a 9th soon launching, all with no additional charges.

Boeing has charged hundreds of millions above and beyond the fixed price contract and has yet to deliver and return astronauts from ISS on a single completed mission.
Seems to be more when the low end isn't getting enough to live on. The element that gets violent just because someone else is doing well doesn't seem that large.
Also, some of this is accounted for by a difference in development philosophy. The typical NASA project tests finished designs to make sure that they'll work. SpaceX frequently (currently for Starship) tests half-finished designs because they want to know how they will fail, for future revision. (Example: between starship flight tests 1 and 2, the whole staging method changed; forward fins are being relocate on Starship starting, I think launch after next to reduce heating in reentry, etc.)

They do tests on production vehicles too, e.g. the static fires that precede just about every launch, but those aren't directly comparable to the stuff they deliberately blow up to see how that happens.

I grew up going to Canada every weekend in the summer.

Canadians have known more what is going on in America than Americans for at least the last 35 years.

I love Canadians but never in my adult life have Canadians not been just salivating to have a conversation about American news with an American.
I'd like to think that 55 years ago isn't really that far in the past but, at the scale of undergraduate academic institutions it sort of is. Although I think it was always coed going back to the 1800s, I think MIT still had just a handful of women in a class into the 1960s.
They can start by taxing the poor less.

This is the only thing that works for me as well.

At work I do it daily, and also have a notes section. That way I can go to any day (in Obsidian’s calendar) and see what I did that day if/when needed. I also have a fresh scratch pad each day instead of a giant tab in my editor that holds onto things for months or years without context. Reminders kind of work as well. If I’m doing something today that needs follow up in 2 weeks, I pre-make a placeholder note for 2 weeks from now with the to do, and when I get to that day I see it.

It took me about 15 years trying every tool and system under the sun, and then I stumbled across doing this organically based on what I felt I needed. It’s been going good for several years now, which is something I’ve never been able to say before. That said, I’d be lost without the calendar view, it’s very helpful for me.

At home, I tried this, but it’s too granular. I tried weekly, that even seemed too granular. I’m at the point where when I feel like getting some stuff done, I make a list, and keep that list until it’s done (or things age to the point they don’t matter). Then some time goes by until I need another one.

Speaking of wealth, on an online forum, from an internet capable device, and having the safety and luxury of time to do so, is sort of ironic, no?
Well, obviously I strongly disagree with this justification, but it's thought that if you allow for private healthcare options, that will suck resources out of the public system. If I use my own money to pay for the attention of a doctor, that's me taking that doctor away from the public system, making everyone else worse off.
It is depressing that the only option is to keep throwing money at an sclerotic, extractive, incomponent player. How pro-american has boeing been in the past 20 years really?
What kind of answer are you looking for? Just start asking it questions. The constant demand for a magic silver bullet use case applicable to every person in the country is wild. If you have to ask, you're not using it.

What exact use case did google.com enable you to do that made it worthwhile for everyone to immediately start using? It let you access nytimes.com? Access amazon.com? No, it let you ask off the wall, asinine, long tail questions no one else asked.
Boeing isn't the only possible competitor to Crew Dragon, but even it it were, the ISS is dead in 5 years, so who really cares about a short-term Dragon monopoly. Focus on the future and stop throwing good money after bad with Boeing and over the ancient ISS which is about 85% of the way to incineration.
Boeing isn't in a learning phase... more of a how much can we underpay our employees and how many cheap subtractors can we get away with phase. Also starliner would not be "nominally" second best, but truly second, or perhaps third best if other options come around(dreamchaser).

Musk may be huffing the right wing nonsense too much, but I don't know if he has actually done anything anti-american(though supporting someone as obviously corrupt as Trump could be considered so I suppose), much of the headlines about him appear to be clickbait nonsense.

SpaceX can't do jack shit without Gov approval, so it wouldn't really matter if they had ulterior motives.

> is figuring out how to educate other kernel developers about Rust

Why have one class of logic errors when you can have two?
There are three major reasons why, with very few exceptions, wealth doesn't last centuries:

1. Descendants of really successful people tend to fritter away that wealth, thinking they're as gifted as their forebears. Look no further than the Vanderbilts;

2. Families have a tendency to die out over generations. The Roman Republican originally had 45 patrician families. By the time of Gaius Julius Caesar (who was from a patrician family), there were 15 IIRC; and

3. The ultimate form of wealth redistribution is war and revolution.

Most long-lasting family wealth tends to be monarchies of some kind.

Therea are a bunch of arguments you'll hear why taxing the rich more can't or shouldn't happen. They're all lies.

1. Capital flight. The rich will leave. Great. You lose the ability to sell to customers in our country then;

2. Taxing unrealized stock gains is impossible and/or unfair. We do this to property just fine. Companies produce tax statements of unrealized gains just fine;

3. The dreaded slippery slope arguments. "If they go after Bezos, next they'll come after me with my $42,000 a year job and 2011 Camry".

A stable society and political climate is completely necessary for this wealth to exist. Having the wealthy pay for the society that makes their wealth possible while avoiding their heads ending up on pikes or in guillotines is entirely just, possible and moral.
Thanks, fixed.

Modern .net on Linux is lovely, you can initialize a project, pull in the S3 client and write a 1-3 line C# program that AOT compiles to a single binary with none of the perf issues or GIL hand-wringing that plagues life in Python.

Given modern Python means type annotations everywhere, the convenience edge between it and modern C# (which dispenses with much of the javaesque boilerplate) is surprisingly thin, and the capabilities of the .net runtime far superior in many ways, making it quite an appealing alternative especially for perf sensitive stuff.
They are all the same. Same opinions. Same narratives. CBC seems more folky reading from the same page.
This. Elon’s entire MO is to lose more money than competitors, then raise more in the markets. Rise, repeat, claim successes, when in reality competitors just aren’t willing to lose that much money bootstrapping. SpaceX is no different.
That was the principle they inherited from McDonnell Douglas.
Where do I complain about the EU regulation that caused the banks to implement this requirement? Should I switch continents?
Boeing can walk at any time. NASA cannot. Boeing has been paid for what they've delivered (plus some nice bribes to keep trying) and not for what they have not delivered so they an walk today if they want. NASA cannot walk though and would not.

I sure hope that lack of budget is not the problem in San Francisco! It's a HUGE and very well funded thank you very much police force.

One thing you didn't mention is that it's a police force with its own political opinions and actions.

Another thing is that it's one at war with a large part of the population.
I've been keeping a list of monospace pages: https://wonger.dev/posts/monospace-dump#web. Currently have ~50.

Spacing is a challenge. And you lose some legibility giving up proportional fonts. I think kerning in proportional fonts makes a big difference, letting your eyes recognize the shape of different letter groupings.

Monospace text is fine if you avoid long-form text, like when it's structured and highlighted in a code editor.

But it sure is pretty! Especially with Unicode charts and ASCII art.

> Yes, living in one of the, if not the, most desirable cities on the planet comes with additional costs.

Being housed is highly desirable and has sharply driven up the cost in places where people are housed.
That's not the point. From the article:

“When you look at the dental insurance model, it doesn’t protect the patient from financial risk. It’s the opposite,” said Marko Vujicic, chief economist and vice president of the Health Policy Institute at the American Dental Association. “Once the benefit runs out, the $1,400 or whatever it is, all of that financial burden is on the patient. So it protects the insurer, they’re limited on their exposure.”

In other words, there is no real benefit to offering a "good brusher" discounts.
> Why should their agreement with Steinberg factor into this?

I’m speculating, but it could be possible that turning off authorization is Steingberg’s request or stipulation for offering a Dorico discount. Was that not clear before this point? If true, does it change your calculus at all?

> Software being remotely authorized is an implementation detail not a contractual one.

Section 9 “Authorization” of the June 2021 EULA disproves that claim.

https://wpmedia.makemusic.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/Fin...

> It’s their job to allow software legally purchased to continue to function however they are able to do it.

Says who? Do you have any laws or contracts you can cite to back that up? I know you’re just trying to convince me that they shouldn’t be able to turn off remote authorization of new installs next year, however turning off authorization is a thing that can happen with any software packages that use remote authorization, because remote authorization is a common practice. Again, I’m not debating the ethics of said practice. But if you think that remote auth should be illegal, then you should never have bought Finale in the first place.
You do realize “HR” encompasses a wide variety of positions, right? They aren’t all stereotypically evil minions.

Show HN: Moved my Codeabbey puzzles website to opensource
Back in september 2013 I started my website with programming puzzles, now there are 400+, but this time it is not about boasting :) I considered making it opensource many times, but only this June, after I left yet another day job, I found some willpower to do necessary cleanup and customization.

To deploy and configure it, there are provided instructions in a number of steps, also teachin what is where in the code - but to make things quick, there is also brief video-demo. With it one can launch the site at the free web-hosting, for example, in less than half an hour!

I hope the thing could be useful for programming teachers - and not only programming. I tried, as a proof-of-concept, start physics-dedicated website. With small javascript tinkering it could host quizzes etc - so it is possible to turn it to even to psychology exercises (though I don't think it is worth it).
