I've seen Harris pronounce her name a variety of different ways... One of the more compelling reasons behind throwing accusations of wrongspeak when folks pronounce her name one way or another is that "kuh-mul-ah" sounds like "burn her" and rhymes with "suck on it" in Spanish, which might have triggered this to begin with.
Yes. 100% purely about party since that party calls their opponents bigots no matter what. The hypocritical response and blame game after the US elections shows that calling others bigot is projecting more than anything else.

This works if a project is doable with a small team of smart/experienced people -- if it isn't then the methodologies become important

On any sufficiently complex piece of engineering -- using vendors to accelerate progress works until it doesn't -- there is usually a point very early in a product lifecycle where that starts to constrain progress/agility or limit feature development ... then there is another point later where it starts to bite financially ... then a point where the vendor gets acquired or ceases supporting it

I live in Thessaloniki, where you can get pretty lucky: The city is built along the coast, so there's a large boardwalk spanning the entire coast, it's pretty broad and has a nice bike lane. You can cycle from one side of the city to the other in 20 minutes or so, and the boardwalk is so broad that pedestrians tend to have enough space to stay out of the bike lane. It's an extremely pleasant way of transportation.

If you cycle anywhere other than the boardwalk, though, Greek drivers are going to kill you, but I've developed coping strategies (using side-streets).

> No, 'taking turns' is not codified in the law or mentioned in the DMV handbook.

Even if it's not explicitly written, it's a natural consequence that once two opposite cars go, the perpendicular cars were there before the replacements, so they get to go first, and it falls into taking turns.

They meant when vehicles are waiting for each other the entire time, since obviously with nobody waiting multiple vehicles can go the same direction. In your scenario nobody is waiting after step 2.

No reasonable person would believe this, it's the equivalent of believing that when someone asked their associate to make another person "sleep with the fishes" they were talking about an aquarium trip. It's just obviously not true.

Even if he hadn't been president with access to actually legal paths to investigate and address these things (and a responsibility to act ethically with the power he had where even the appearance of corruption is harmful), even if he had any evidence of actual fraud, even if he hadn't already organised a set of fake electors before the claimed "fraud" happened, even if you didn't have four people who have plead guilty to conspiring on this, even if he hadn't then refused to act when a violent mob stormed the capital on his behalf after he worked them up, even if half of his closest allies from his first term (including his vice president) weren't actively telling you this was his intent and plan, no reasonable person hears him leaning on the guy to just find the exact number of votes he needs to win and threatening him and thinks this was all above board.

You have to intentionally take his statements in ways no person actually would, and intentionally ignore all the damning context and evidence. It's not credible in the slightest.
Ask HN: What are some great ESP32 DIY pojects for Xmas gifts
I'm getting into electronic hobby projects. I would really like to learn how to design PCBs, and work with verilog and FPGA. For now, I've ordered a bunch of ESP32. I would like to take the Holidays as an opportunity to do a few beginner/intermediate projects using the ESP32, I would like the projects to help me learn to pinning in, soldering, using breakout boards ect ect. Are their any cool Christmas gifts I can DIY with ESP32 that would also be great learning opportunities?
Yes, and they can choose not to do that. If they don’t want companies doing it, they better not have a turned on android or iPhone device with them.

But I don’t think it’s a distopian nightmare that I want it.

40-50 year olds did not grow up with social media. Myspace didn’t even exist when they were in high school.

People in their early to mid 30s had Facebook come into popularity during high school. I’d wager the majority of that age group would happily ban social media for children having experienced youth both with and without modern social media.
You are right, it is mostly about the slowing down. Switching to the unfamiliar block lettering forces you to go slow. It's a trick, so that you do not have to be deliberate about writing speed but about lettering. In my experience the latter is easier than the former, but obviously YMMV.

I don't know if uppercase hurts comprehension. I think, I have no problems whatsoever. But block letters are not all upper case anyway. You make them of different size to signal upper and lower case, i.e. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Block_letters
Sorry if that was not clear in my messages. It's not binary and exclusive. The values are commonly associated with far-right. That doesn't mean each value is exclusive to far-right. It doesn't mean a far-right party cannot deny part of them or accept any other values.

As with every definition there is a grey area and when a party is labelled as far-right it means that it ticks many boxes that put it in this category. Of course, people can disagree, argue on positions, that's politics.

> Closing the borders has nothing to do with libertarian economics or protectionism.

On that specific point, I was thinking about economical protectionism than physically closing border.

> populist [...] is not a right wing position.

True, it's usually associated with far-right or far-left rather than regular party.
Really cool! I'll take a look!

- can you then easily query it with duckdb / clickhouse / something else? What do you use yourself? do you have some tutorial / toy example to check?

- would it be complicated to have the real-time data be also stored somehow on S3 so it would be "transparent" to do query on historical data which includes day data?

- what typical "batch data" size makes sense, I guess doing "day batches" might be a bit small and will incurr too many "read" operations (if I have moderate amount of day data), rather than "week batches"? but then the "timelag" increases?
> For everything else, including desktop and mobile operating systems realtime sounds like a good idea.

Why on earth would you need real time on desktop? Every time the topic is discussed on internet bunch of confused people chime in with this sentiment that doesn't make much sense. "RTOS" is not some magic that somehow makes everything on your desktop fast. All it would do in reality is make everything slower for 99% of your interaction but guarantee that "slowness" is uniform and you don't have any weird latency spikes in other 1%. Note that for cases that are not "nuclear reactor control system that requires Very Certified OS with audited and provable reaction times" RTLinux is already available, but distros are not inclined to leverage it on desktop for reason described above.

Absolutely bonkers to me that fanatical ultra-religious Islamic countries have legalized abortion for situations where "the mother's life may be in danger from prolonging the pregnancy", while Texas goes medieval with that kind of shit.

It's ironic how you took it the wrong way, as if I didn't know it was by design and think that "the EU doesn't have enough power or doesn't remove enough sovereignty from the member states".

My problem is exactly that it removes sovereignty and citizens of each country have a weakened democracy and representation because of it.

The capacity to effect change is extremely low thanks to both parliamentary systems and the supranational EU.

The EU has some convenient things that one can benefit from, so people don't care to have the other conversation (or are simply authoritarian).
You're acting like politics has no place on government built and regulated roads.

I don't know how it goes in the US, but AFAIK there needs to be an actual medical reason to expose people to ionizing radiation. That is presuming that you would want to go for the most affordable option of using CT scanner which would set you back for three quarters of a mil approximately in hardware alone. Using an MRI would easily double or triple that, but it would provide better image.

I don't think there's enough rich pineal gland enthusiast to justify the cost, even if the system was truck mounted and mobile and thus hypothetically able to reach wider customer base.

WorkerD isn't anywhere near a "cutdown version of Chromium," it is an incredible platform with years of engineering put into it, from some of the people behind very similar and successful products (GAE, Protocol Buffers, to name some). I assume you are referring to V8 here but that also powers Deno.

WorkerD is open source: https://github.com/cloudflare/workerd

I personally am not a fan of Deno because of how it split the Node JS ecosystem, so that is not a benefit in my eyes. Of course, Workers can run Rust.

Nothing you said here necessitates an API difference.

Memgraph Lab 101 Simplify Graph Data Exploration with Visualization and Querying
I have a neighbour who's in his 60s. Blood pressure was of the charts while in his 40s. The guy was cycling to work everyday (and thought that was enough exercise) and was living a stressful family and work life.

Doctor never prescribed any drugs but told him that he had to start exercising. Signed up for judo class. He couldn't believe the amount of exercise he got from the warm up alone. Been doing judo 3 days a week for 20 years now. Haven't had any heart or blood pressure issues since.
I said it's more harmless than other medication dependencies, like getting hooked on pain medication or benzos. Even here in tightly regulated Germany, Xylometazoline can be bought without a prescription. It is very effective and, compared to other drugs, pretty harmless.

Look, there are always extreme cases. Just look up how many people need a liver transplant or even die each year from misusing paracetamol. So should we make it a prescription drug? Maybe, I don't know, it's always a trade-off.

It's knowable in a sense that hallucination/scam is vastly more probable than an actual ghost (or any other supernatural phenomena).

If there is a mistake in common knowledge, it's the belief that hallucinations/delusions happen only to mentally ill people or on drugs.

> Imagine you’re a data analyst at a global company who’s been asked to provide employee statistics for a survey on remote working and distributed teams

I'm going to go on a limb and assume the exercise of the analysis is just for fun and that the decision was already made by the strategic team of people who never go to the office themselves or aren't really affected by it.

The 0 to 3 day move that many did was not supported by data in any of the cases I've seen and had more to do with government pushes and saving downtown or encouraging self layoffs.

The article itself on the technique is fine although I'd also make sure to include the percentage with regards to non participants because trust in anonymity over a contentious topic will definitely affect who answers and what they answer.
> (Possibly controversial belief: riding a motorcycle makes you a better car driver. Motorcycling has made me pick up habits like always looking over my shoulder and not solely trusting my mirrors when changing lanes)

Completely agree:

1. Finding the gaps in traffic, and hanging out there and chilling. Cars always cluster together. If I crash when I'm in a gap, it's my own fault. But I'm not going to crash because someone veers into my lane while watching Youtube.

(Benefit of motorcycling where lane splitting is allowed: the gap may be ahead, as well as behind. Plus it feels really good to get in front of everyone else when they're all jockeying together to get ahead.)

2. Following distance. Why does everyone follow one car length behind? This is basic driver's ed. If I'm further back I've got time to dodge obstacles, account for slowdowns and react to crashes ahead. This is closely related to #1.

3. Using my turn signals, religiously. I turn them on well before a lane change or turn.

4. Memorizing my route, to avoid distractions. When motorcycling, I don't want my phone out. I need to be caffeinated, laser focused, and geared up for battle.

5. Being comfortable going slow. If I wanted to be fast, I should have put on my helmet :)
I understand the outcry over the heavy processes, but I think there are a lot of confusing statements here.

The point being made is "methodology is bullshit," yet what is proposed is exactly that: a new methodology. "Fix a 60-day timeframe and do whatever fits" is a method. The truth is, everyone needs to be organized somehow, and this is why we invent methodologies, frameworks, processes - call it whatever you want - but we all need some form of organization.

The problem is that some methodologies (Scrum, etc.) are heavily abused and transformed into management frameworks, which is the opposite of why they were created in the first place. But do you know how Agile was invented? It was a group of software developers, tired of heavy management processes, who came together to decide how to make their processes lightweight. Less is more.

Just as one example:
> "We don’t do Figma mocks. We don’t write PRDs. We don’t really have a design system. We don’t do agile.".
Well, right from the Agile manifesto:
> "Working software over pointless documentation."

So it sounds like we've come full circle. That's really a pity. I wonder how we can break the cycle. I also think we should take a look at the original ideas in the old-school methodologies (Agile, etc.) because they’re not bad, just abused. They were created 20 years ago by people who were in the same situation we are in now, so there's a lot of wisdom there that shouldn't be outright rejected.
I only lurk HN but seems that comments such as these are becoming commonplace now.

Why the accusatory and negative tone? How does this contribute to the discussion in a meaningful way at all?
Do you seriously think that we would be in the current situation had NATO flat out told Ukraine "no"

They did in fact give a flat "no" to both George and Ukraine, and that was the key outcome of the 2008 Bucharest Summit. What you seem to be missing here is that despite the nice-sounding press release you shared in the other comment, their formal application, in the form of their requests for what's known as a Membership Application Plan, was denied:

From 2008, Russia began stating its opposition to Ukraine's membership. That March, Ukraine applied for a Membership Action Plan (MAP), the first step in joining NATO. At the April 2008 Bucharest summit, NATO Secretary General Jaap de Hoop Scheffer declared that Ukraine and Georgia would someday join NATO, but neither would begin Membership Action Plans.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enlargement_of_NATO#Ukraine

One can read those various press releases ("communiqués") that came later as hedges / equivocations -- but that's all secondary. At the time, it was crystal clear that their applications had been rejected, and this was really quite a bit deal at the time.

As to whether we would be in the current situation right now: that gets into hypotheticals of course, but the main point is that Putin definitely did not launch those invasions simply "because NATO", but because his disappointment with the change of government in Kyiv in 2014 (and at least one of Putin's insiders has said there had been plans to at least re-take the Crimea since way back in the early 2000s). And as a way of perpetuating the regime's power, and cementing his own legacy.

That's why the whole NATO encroachment line is basically a foil -- it's just something Putin says, but it's not the reason he launched those invasions.

>I'd argue this article isn't about legal requirements and the like so much

Yes, it fails to address that other businesses face additional complexity and constraints that they don't have and then broadly over-prescribed their principles.

I'm genuinely curious how you're separating "legal requirements" from "implementation" (of either product, or process). When you build things, you have constraints, and you have to respect those constraints, or you built something lousy. If understanding those constraints is part of the building process, then trying to find the fastest way to incorporate those constraints into the product while minimizing time this blocks product development (and thus, velocity), seems like the obvious thing to optimize for. So I don't understand how you're trying to separate those (and to to be overly clear, I'm asking out of genuine curiosity to understand your point better).
I'd love a replacement for Salami and Bacon. I don't think there is a healthy alternative that comes close.
Interesting, but maybe I didn't get the point of the article. Shouldn't be there a link with the double slit experiment [0] ? In that experiment, the 'observer' is not human, it's a device measuring or not the passage of a particle. In that case the AI won't change anything.

Oh god, that quite literally figuratively literally gave me whiplash. I've heard that "had to lay her down" line and... there is no, absolutely NO situation in which you have to "lay her down".
