The Indian subcontinent is so densely populated, very few areas can support hunting. It does happen in some rural areas. Sport hunting is not really a thing though.

Most Indians (statistically) are vegetarian, and essentially obligate vegetarian due to the population density (also enforced by religion), though ‘vegetarian’ can include eggs, fish, and sometimes chicken depending on the person, time, etc.

Indian Muslims are the notable exception (~13% of the population) and it does cause some serious friction at times - like riots.

No, it never was as all pertinent nations could easily obtain enough uranium to 'cook' it for weapons. Even the most eager to build huge amounts of weapons (USSR and USA) never had any problem related to the amount of uranium needed.

Short version: the amount of uranium needed to build an impressive arsenal of nuclear weapons is way, way lower than the amount needed to produce a fair part of gridpower for years.

> Every country that has nuclear weapons does have nuclear reactors

Yes, because a reactor is needed to 'cook' uranium (in order to obtain high-grade Pu-239) for weapons. This very need was what led nations to build reactors, electricity-generating nuclear plants were at best an aftermath and in some cases an excuse (hiding the real objective).
In the EU the CRA would have mandated something like that -- not 25 years but a support period defined by the manufacturer that reflects the time the product is expected to be used. The auto industry managed to get themselves excluded.
Wish I had this page when messing around with Eggdrop[1] back in the late 90s.

As a self-taught novice programmer that started with QBasic and had moved on to Turbo Pascal, I found Tcl to be very confusing and it left a rather negative impression.

Reading this page now though, it seems a lot more logical and reasonable than it appeared at the time.

Why would a car even need to have security updates in the first place. Or are we arguing that software updates and patches become like car parts, and you can go to your local parts dealer to get an oil filter, fan belt and a USB with the latest security updates?
Which Latin script? :)

Everyone on the nearby continent has some accented characters and possibly both English and their national keyboard installed.

Incidentally, this is a major complaint with smartphone OS designers that only speak English and don't realize there are places where people mix languages daily. That predictive spell checker should be configurable to accept more than one language at a time...
That's a high barrier to entry for someone coming from the software side. Just sourcing components can be a shitshow.
The problem of consonant clusters is a bit overstated IMO. I once saw some English speaker complaining about how difficult it is to pronounce Russian, like take a phrase "на встрече" — there are 4 consonants at the start of that second word, wtf! — even though that cluster is exactly the same as the one in the English phrase "of strength"; this cluster even undergoes essentially the same simplification/reduction in both languages.

But I agree that overly large phonemic inventory is a problem. On the other hand, it seems that languages either have a complex consonant system but a simple vowel system; or a simple consonant system but a complex vowel system; I haven't yet seen a language where both systems are simple (Japanese vowels have tonality, so it's not a simple system IMHO), probably because the words in such a language would have to be quite long.
It’s pretty typical for many Indians with any sync-up with the US (which is a lot) to work 12 hr day type schedules starting around 10-11am, with a long break in the middle for dinner/family time. Otherwise, it just doesn’t work eh?

I never understood the need to distinguish between "ball" and "sphere" in maths. Sure, one is solid and the other hollow, but why is that fact so important that you need to use a completely different word? As I understand it, you could replace every instance of "ball" in this article with "sphere" and it would still be correct.

We don't have special words for the voluminous versions of other 3D shapes, so why do spheres need one?
Almost every title. This is common knowledge.

Recently, I decided to try out Claude for a month and bought the subscription right when mine for ChatGPT ended. However, after just a few days, I noticed how sluggish and inconvenient Claude feels on the web. Maybe it's partly because of my 4k screen, and it's not optimized for it, but I quickly switched back to ChatGPT due to the IMO better UX. Also, temporary chats are missing!

I’m not overly surprised that in a startup, there was no mechanism built to split off a small defined portion of their fleet to a different, independent cloud.

By that definition, pretty much the only apps that qualify for local first are document stores. I'm not convinced that it is useful to narrow the definition that far (nor that most of the local first advocates would agree with such a narrowing).

We're basically talking about 1 bit of state that the light is authoritative about (on/off), versus all the other state that your copy of the app can be authoritative about (configuration, schedules, etc).

Define "proper usage". You can call it anything you want, but if you call it "Evas Blummenladen", people will wonder why you spelled "Blumen" wrong. Now sometimes people do that in names as a play on words etc., but here it just doesn't make sense.

In the same way, people will wonder why you spelled "Eva's" in "Eva's Blumenladen" wrong, if you spell it that way.

Yes, if enough people start doing a wrong thing, it'll eventually become "right", and I guess in 100 year's we can put apostrophy's where'ever we wa'nt, but currently it still looks odd, and like something that is foreign to German, and imported from English. Because unlike in English, in German this apostrophy doesn't stand for an omitted letter in the genitive singular ending.
I'm also like that. When I was a child (not sure what age), I would take two pencils and write one line with the left hand, and the next with the right, indistinctly. But my school teachers said I should choose one and stick to it (not sure if that would still be advised today). I really had no preference so my mother advised me to choose the right, as it would give me less trouble due to everything being designed for right-handers, etc. A reasonable advice.

I did so, and now I wouldn't be able to write with my left hand, but when I take up a new activity, it's still basically arbitrary. For example, I started playing golf recently, and I deliberately chose the right-handed way for the same reasons as for writing (it's easier to find right-handed clubs, etc.) but I could have chosen the opposite and I suppose my skill would be the same, initially there is no option that looks more "natural" than the other for my body. And with trivial things where I didn't choose consciously, sometimes I'm told I do them as a left-hander, e.g. I stir tea counterclockwise.

I'm a fountain pen aficionado and I would have liked my son to enjoy my fountain pens someday, but he's a clear left-hander, so he probably won't :)
That's because it's the moral equivalent of posting "RIP" or similar.

This is why outsourcing usually goes bad

I am from Brazil and I often try to explain people from other countries that if you really want to outsource work you _have_ to build an office in the target country that _really_ works in the same way as the HQ. But that is far more expensive of course.

The people in Brazil who end up in those kind of outsourcing "software factories" are not the ones most Brazilian product companies want.

No, I don't, but I think they're often riskier than a similar sized startup targeting broader B2B customers. The reason for that is that the charging model is often month-to-month or short term contracts (yearly renewal), the products are often something you can do without or can switch to a competitor easily (i.e. there's not much differentiation). It can be very easy for a competitor to come about and knock you off a peg very quickly. In addition, the 'nice to have' dev focused startups are things that can be easily cancelled with not that much of an effect on the bottom line of another business. Many dev-focused startups have their business with other startups primarily, so where there's a recession that might knock some of those out of business it can be fatal to your company if you're reliant on them for revenue.
Every communication or marketing I have ever seen done by quantum computing actors has been about very "classical" problems: finance, clean energy, AI...

It's all snake oil, obviously. Those are keywords thrown out for VC money. IMO, there would be no way for this many companies to raise this much money if the investors knew what kind of problems quantum computing is really addressing.
CGI is alive and well. It’s still the easiest way to build small applications for browsers.
"no excuse" -- I would respectfully disagree here. There are lots of very smart people who have worked on Qt. Really, some insanely good C++ programmers have worked on that project. I have no doubt that they have discussed changing class QString to use UTF-8 internally. To be clear, probably QChar would also need to change, or a new class (QChar8?) would be needed, in parallel to QChar. I guess they concluded the API breakage would be too severe. I assume Java and Win32/DotNet decided the same. Finally, you can Google for old mailing list discussions about QString using UTF-16. Many before have asked "can we just change to UTF-8?".
I'm pretty sure Ousterhout intended for people to write a few deep modules in C and only use Tcl to glue everything together/provide extensibility.

(we did exactly this for networking code about 30 years ago: C for the data plane and Tcl for the control plane. That architecture remained in service for decades.)
Other statically-typed languages do have to deal with the problem of parsing external objects. In my experience, none of them have parsers as good as Zod in terms of ergonomics.

Taht still doesn't answered how employers keeping track of the ethnicities of employees helps against discrimination in any way.

To me that's exactly what helps lead to discrimination versus not knowing ethnicities and treating employees as anonymized numbers which would be fair to everyone.
The amount of bots scanning for vulnerabilities or spam for a hidden, no seo, no important website approaches 700 visits a day. In the past it was a bit more personal as someone had to target you directly, now it's just crawlers and bots everywhere. I know not anyone is able to do the same but I basically block ASN for all clouds and cheap vps hosters + few countries.
In addition to the costs, I'd say it's also that no one wants to risk getting sued like the IA is getting.
I play a right handed ukulele left handed (neck in my right hand, strumming with the left hand, but strung normally). Since the body is symmetrical, and I learnt like that from the start, I've not really had an issue. Plus, it means I can pick up and play any old ukulele without having to re-string it first. However this doesn't work for something like an electric guitar which you cant really play "upside down"
I have had an IA account for a number of years, with a gmail address. Nine months ago, I changed the email address to a masked address using my own domain. Now I find that my gmail address was still stored, and was involved in the breach. Why? I get that they might store change history, but why?

BTW, for the current account details, I changed the password to another random string generated by my password manager, and also deleted the masked email address and generated another one, so going forward this sort of thing isn't that much of an issue for me.
France already encountered challenges: for 5 decades some there pretended that Niger will provide, then it abruptly became tricky ( https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c0kked7ydqyo ).

Some recycling operations (past contracts) involving Russia also had to be maintained during the current embargo.

No major problem for now, indeed.

However a war or a nuclear renaissance may abruptly lead to challenging conditions, if superpowers need more uranium.
Pharma love when governments are on the hook for their outlandish prices. It's why there's a revolving door between public and private...to smooth deals like these.
Send the protégé on some training courses and skills development workshops. Bring them up to speed with current trends and requirements of the business. If they kick up a stink or if questions are asked just make it out like it's the new norm. Then it's up to them to sink or swim. If they falter, point it out to the big boss. Mitigate failures by having paired programming where you have your top tier junior shadow the protégé. They can learn from each other, you can reduce potential damage that can occur from putting all your eggs in one basket.

Humans much like systems need redundancy too, never rely on one alone. What happens if your lead gets ill? Has a injury? Protégé or not you need redundancy.

Also talk to your boss. Communication is king.
Most people don’t operate this way. Choice is painful and induces anxiety. There’s a high chance of getting buyers remorse even if you chose the „objectively best” model.

A good salesperson will make sure the choice process is relatively quick and painless. You will feel good afterwards knowing that all the 125 aspects that differentiate this model from the other ones are not that important. The one you chose runs your favourite apps, integrates well with your car and your home entertainment system.

Understanding this and learning how to sell helps in life, incl. negotiating architectural changes with non technical decision makers.
Crawlers with jobs, building searchable indexes? Similar to youtube. Down at the source its blobs, but above it all floats a layers of tags, metrics and searchable text. That is what the searches run against and the preferences algo builds its lineup against?
I think in the scenario you’re presenting the engineering team has failed to surface the problem or the other teams have failed to accurately present it. I do agree with what you’re saying about engineering teams becoming bottlenecks if their immediate instinct is to derail or mistrust other teams and once the cycle has started it’s hard for the teams involved to break out of this pattern. I do still think there is a responsibility for engineering teams, especially at small companies to look for opportunities to solve problems in a simpler or cheaper way if they can and that might not be obvious to other teams. The customer might have actually just needed a sink or second toilet for example.
I have no clue, but I guess there were (and are), good discussions around it.
None of those companies develop web browsers, run the largest search engine, develop the most widespread mobile OS or sit on standards board. You are being obtuse on purpose.

> This very need was what led nations to build reactors, electricity-generating nuclear plants were at best an aftermath

In absolute history, though, this is arse backwards.

The UK and the US both had piles and generation plans before they even thought building nuclear weapons was at all possible.

The US, in particular, had a nuclear science body that were pretty damn sure weapons weren't feasible and had a major focus on atomic power to generate energy.

They ignored the letter by Einstein that highlighted the dangers of a German nuclear program suspected of chasing weapons and only paid heed after several approaches by Tube Alloys (the UK nuclear weapons group) when the Australian nuclear scientist Mark Oliphant visited the US and laid out in detail a method by which a bomb could be feasibly constructed.
I have an older sibling who is left Andes and challenged me to use my left hand since they could use both. So I’m at about a typical left handed person’s level of dexterity with their right hand. I switch off on tasks like shoveling or sweeping. I can write badly. Etc. I wouldn’t say it is useful, really.
It's not a scam. My son is left-handed and his left-handed scissors don't work for me, while my right-handed scissors don't work for him.

I have never understood why, though. In my mind, if you rotate the scissors 180 degrees, they should become the other kind (assuming the handles are symmetric, not those ergonomic asymmetric ones, I mean). And I just don't see why not no matter how hard I think. I'm not a dumb person but I have always had a particular weakness to understand certain spatial-related things, e.g. that method to change the duvet cover where you roll it and unroll it and when you unroll it it ends up inside... for me, it might as well be magic :D

It's strange, here in Norway I usually get phishing attempts of the "check your parcel" variety around the time something is on its way with DHL from another country. I guess they have someone on the inside that supplies the tracking numbers.
I am exactly like this. When I was learning to write I frequently changed hands, until my teacher told me, that I have 3 days to figure out with which hand I want to write. Left felt slightly better to me, but by that time I was eating like my completely right-handed family and using scissors with the right. I also play guitar as a right-handed would. I tried a left-handed bass for a bit and it was super awkward. It also means strumming is much harder for me than changing notes on the guitar. I struggled so hard with clawfinger banjo playing, that I gave it up.

All later skills, like shooting a bow, I do as a right-handed, since I am right-eyed. This is hard to do, since my left arm is much stronger than my right and you need more strength in the string-pulling arm.

I feel wrong and awkward a lot. Writing on a keyboard is very liberating. But when I was playing first person shooters in my teenage years, my aim (right-hand mouse) was always bad, while my footwork (left-hand WASD) was very good :D
Most (if not all) of your posts here on HN boil down to "C/C++ bad, Rust good". I wonder what you are trying to achieve by this, but I assure you that this does not do Rust any favor other than giving the impression that the Rust community is obnoxious.

Oh. I thought that was a light mode / dark mode button... Unlikely on a retail site I guess, but discoverability feels pretty bad. It's not like you couldn't just write "suffering from domestic abuse?" on there because the person doesn't have to click it in situations where that would be risky, and could come back later if they spot it at the wrong time.
Eh? (P(X|Y)>P(X) iff P(Y|X)>P(Y)) whenever all the relevant probabilities (P(X), P(Y), P(X and Y), etc.) are strictly positive and strictly less than 1.

Now, X might be much stronger evidence for Y than Y is for X, but if Y is evidence for X, then (assuming the previously mentioned assumption) then X is evidence for Y, even if only very weak.
I have an even easier approach:

- have an iphone/mac w/ icloud+

- go into settings

- add custom email

- get redirected to login to cloudflare

- buy/pick a domain for $12

- icloud+ automatically sets up the MX records on the domain via cloudflare

- enable catch-all emails in icloud settings

- Done!

Takes about 10 minutes & icloud provides the email hosting without any additional fees
While I don't have a problem with Javascript, I have a problem with the ecosystem around publishing JS for the web. There are so many tools that do more or less the same thing and whose boundaries are unclear. Additionally, when you eventually manage to get everything working it feels brittle (IMHO). For someone that doesn't do that professionally, it is daunting.

Nowadays, the few times I need to build something for the web I use leptos which has a much nicer DX and even if it didn't reach 1.x yet, it feels more stable that chaining like 5 tools to transpile, uglify, minify, pack, ... your JS bundle.
This reminds me of how the web used to be, before everything was on social media.
