Not quite sure what the big challenge is here. If the work is shifting to the server, you debug on the server! Read the logs. Attach a debugger. Instrument the code if you must! All that usual stuff. This is how web-development has been since the days of CGI. What am I missing?
As the parent indicated, this stuff is surprisingly standardised in London.

Distance is measured from Charing Cross.

The Cross is near Nelson's Column, but I would be surprised if the column was actually the central point.

As others have pointed out, this leads to some weirdness, as lots assume that the City (old London & older Roman London) would be the obvious place to measure things from.
The basic problem is obvious, no company in Germany would pay a fresh PhD more than 150k, even 100k would be extremely. So AI talent leaves. But this is not the whole story, the bureaucracy, regulation and so on are insane. Then you have high taxes, and especially everyone wants to tax the rich. The rich are too rich in Germany. So why should Germany try to make them richer lol?
Finding the most central rabbit would be quite the task!
The plant stays alive once its 'fruit' is remove, true (although I've never picked cotton or tobacco leaves - I assume the process doesn't injure the plant).

But we don't care. We only keep the plant alive so we can make more of the 'good stuff' (cigarettes, jeans, etc.)

Again, low effort and low cost from our side. If it would be cheaper to kill the tobacco plant (I don't know much about tobacco plants, perhaps that at some point/age of the plant it becomes sterile, so we kill the old one and plant a new one?) If this is the case, then kill the old cotton plant, get a new one, start harvesting. We decided that we rule the earth. Until something very dramatic happens (ruin ecosystems, aliens invade, etc.) then we run the show.
Because it doesn't actually solve anything: You're still replacing whatever getenv returned from under the nose the program code - if that happens in another thread or in a signal handler in the same thread doesn't make any difference.

And that's before you even get to the `extern char *environ` global.
It’s not really decentralised. You could run your own server, but everyone is on their server so they can pull the rug anytime they want.
And these days, you use the same browser debug tools to attach to nodejs.
> I also prefer pattern matching over dynamic dispatch. But I maintain that conjuring up attributes out of thin air (which is 100% what you're doing when your function accepts one type, and then inside, conjures up another, that has additional attributes from the input!) is insane.

Does it though? In one case, you have:

type S = A|B
func calculate(x:S):number

In the other, you have:

interface S = {calculate:() => number}
A::calculate():number
B::calculate():number

but also implicitly the possible:

Z::calculate():number

The latter case is more flexible, but also harder to reason about. Whoever calls S::calculate can never be quite sure what's in the bag.

> For one, it's a huge footgun for when you add another type that inherits - the compiler will NOT force you to add new branches to cover that case, even though you may want it to.

Lack of exhaustiveness checks is a problem many languages have, and if that's the case for you, that's an argument for preferring methods.

> it's actually n functions, so ease of grokking and maintainability goes out the window

...but that's exactly what interface methods are: N functions. That's what your problem is. You can't get around it. Moreover, if most of your types do not have a distinct implementation for that method, you will still need to define them all. This is where both the "super-function" and inheritance (or traits) can save you quite a bit of code.
Onyx is still on my no-buy list. AFAIK, they violated the GPL by refusing to release changes to GPL software that they built the devices on.

But also Android makes it something I’m not very interested in. The Fujitsu device is also running Android.

Yes you can replace LibC. Just use "cp1 c" command to output C codes and then use appropriate command line arguments to gcc or clang to use newlib-nano. I cannot give direct instructions for you to use newlib-nano because I'm not yet familiar with that library.

Somewhat related thought ... a big part of existence is predicated, bear with me, on delayed gratification. We are constantly being asked to wait so we can get something, something more or something better. Go to school to learn to get better job, more money, more something. I thought it applied to the way religions define our universe, we always have to wait more, and the gratification part is not defined fully, there is not an exhibition of afterlife we can see with our eyes to make sure it's there. Just wait and pray it's there. Now, since religions, like it or not, are a part of everyone's life, directly or indirectly (via believers you encounter), it's easy to explain delayed gratification to everyone. Simple trap that everyone is caught in. Delay, delay, delay.

You waiting for imaginary self-years to do something may or may not be related, but don't wait.

This is simply because its 'public'.

A straight man or woman can go to a gay club or bar, and they can't block or ban you. since it's a public place.

If you want to restrict access, you need to make it private. - this is sensible and not weird. It's weird people claim something to be 'public' but then want to restrict access.

And for the record, it can be alot of fun going to a lesbian or gay event or club or bar or whatever if you are straight. good times are good times - these are often really fun places. Had lots of laughs in my time going to places in amsterdam. - initially just to 'see what is there' - curiosity, then having a lot of laughs and coming back for 'gezelligheid'.
> As the token Trump supporter on HN

In a minority most likely. Not even close to alone.

> Peter Hoetz said that Bird Flu will start once the trump administration takes office for example.[1].

No. He said we have big picture stuff coming down the pike starting January 21. Like a flu wide spread in birds already, that jumped species already, that could develop human to human transmission. He framed it clearly as a present danger the incoming administration would inherit. Even without the removed context about Kennedy's claims no vaccines are safe and effective and vaccines cause autism.

> The bird flu outbreak had been behind a lot of food inflation. I wouldn't put it past people on the radical left who want to hurt the Trump administration to hype the bird flu pandemic to drive up food prices through mass culling of livestock.

Whoever the radical left are, they don't decide about culling livestock. What agenda do you think was behind the culls driving up food prices before the election? And do you expect tariffs and deportations to lower food prices?

Yes, the Steele Dossier which the entire Russiagate investigation was based on was fake and funded by Hillary Clinton.

https://apnews.com/article/russia-ukraine-2022-midterm-elect...

Four years and immense government resources were wasted investigating the President calling him a "tool of the Russian government".

And the "plenty of stuff" found? "Undisclosed contacts" and "obstruction of the investigation".

What a massive flop.

Does that description not include those who are female and homosexual?

I wonder what their reasoning is here. How would excluding individuals who are male and heterosexual from lesbian events cause risks to their health?

Mastodon's lack of growth or even perpetually declining MAU is not a coincidence. The community is obsessively anti-growth.

It's politically intolerant in the sense that the vibe is left to hard-left, and even within that sphere there's lot of infighting. Sure, you can use Mastodon as a normie centrist, but the culture is unappealing to many.

Any attempt to plug Mastodon into other decentralized media (Threads, Bluesky) is met with extreme hostility.

Any attempt to make Mastodon more discoverable and searchable is met with hostility. A vocal part of the community is obsessed with safety culture and consent.

Institutes, celebrities, influencers can't use Mastodon because there's no reach and users act like stung by a wasp when anything remotely commercial happens.

Anybody within Mastodon that tries to improve or grow things is shot down and crushed.

The guy that created Mastodon has sacrificed a decade of his life into this thing, for a compensation bordering poverty. He's under constant attack and framed as evil just because he didn't implement some random feature.

There's now a guy creating an Instagram clone called Pixelfed. He's white and talks hip hop slang. Which is close to inevitable for young men as it's deeply integrated into music, gaming, etc. He now stands accused of "cultural appropriation". As he did not immediately fall down to his knees to apologize, he's now framed as a racist.

There was a gay man running a large LGBT instance. Activists were flooding it with spoilers of that Harry Potter game. He tried to stop it and got angry at this behavior, after which he was bullied into a total breakdown, and shut down the instance.

There was a man running a large instance with supreme infra skills. The instance was ballooning. The instance was instant-fast and scaled beautifully. It was popular for being very middle of the road, a generic instance with decent moderation. It was the only instance at the time having a proper search experience. The activist community kept hammering on him for even enabling search and for his moderation not being strict enough, until he ultimately just gave up.

Mastodon doesn't grow because the vocal minority that runs it are chronically online purists that take sadistic joy in destroying anything that would grow it.

I mean, even Mozilla quit their experiment after 3 months. It's shockingly bad.

If you're in Berlin, especially with kids, there more than a dozen of children's farmyards (not counting zoos and actual farms) all quite central in multi-centric Berlin. Mostly for (early) childhood educational purposes, so they are are prime spot for Kindergarten day trips.

https://www.berlin.de/kultur-und-tickets/tipps/kinder/kinder...

https://www.visitberlin.de/en/farms-children

Since most of them are in former West-Berlin the reason they exist can likely be explained from a mixture of empty lots not rebuild after the bombing in WWII, historical farms in outer Groß-Berlin (Domäne Dahlem) and the impracticality of casual trips into the countryside with kids beyond the wall.

The older middle class have assets that they acquired when those assets cost a fraction of the new price. The older middle class die and try to leave it to their heirs. If asset prices are higher than what a middle class income can afford, the middle class can only own property if they have inherited it. No new property is going to be owned by the middle class as a whole.

There are plenty of ways, however, that property leaves the middle class. If your inheritance tax or property tax (both a percentage of the inflated asset "value"), e.g., exceeds what a middle class income can manage, the property will be sold. If you have used it for a loan to, e.g., start a business and you become ill or your plan fails, you might have to sell it.

Who is going to buy these properties? If a middle class income can't afford property prices anymore, who is left? The middle class can only afford those houses by swapping their property for it.

Therefore, the overall amount of properties owned by the middle class can only shrink. It baffles me that this isn't obvious to everyone.

Now, who is "The Rich" in this scenario?

Those of the middle class who own property will do so because they inherited it, not because they were able to afford it through their income. They might be able to swap it for another property and hope not to make a loss. Their income is still middle class, however. They can't use those inflated property values unless they sell which leaves them without said property.

The rich are those who have enough income to increase their portfolio of assets despite of inflated prices, solely to park their money somewhere. Those aren't your middle class mom and pop who bought a house in the 80s and then a flat in the 90s. And the rich are also not the ones who inherit that house or flat but still earn a middle class income.

There will be a sharp divide between the middle class that was lucky enough to inherit land and the middle class that wasn't so lucky. Reading comments like yours makes me believe that there will be a lot of finger pointing towards the lucky ones. Because those are the ones you can see. The ones who are inflating housing prices by their demand to park their vast amounts of money stay invisible. The ones that will be attacked are the upper middle class, just to pull them down. Like crabs in a bucket.

I felt the light in my 5x4 meter room was to dim so I installed 20x 1500lm lightbulbs, about 200W of LED. I've put them in two sections 6+14. I pretty much used all 20 all the time. Almost as bright as daylight in sunny day. Perceptually 6 were about half as bright as 20.
Electric is seen as some miracle fix but it's really not that simple. ICE producton lines won't just disappear.

Emergency and industrial vehicles will need to remain ICE to a large extent because you don't want to be reliant on the grid and because they need tons of range, there's a reason they pay for extra large fuel tanks.

Vans and trucks don't really work as electric unless you're the post office just doing a trip around the block carrying no significant weight and stopping every 10 meters for the entire workday.

Cost and fire concerns are an issue.

People who travel long distance daily for work are much better served by a diesel.

Also chucking all of our ICE cars at the third world probably isn't a good way of improving emissions. What we probably actually need is hybrids, eco fuels, lighter and smaller cars on average, (electric) motorcycles/scooters, vehicles that last longer, retrofit emission improvement kits for older vehicles, etc.

I know of a group in my city (Washington, DC) that meets for Saturday morning runs, and based on the couple of times I've seen them, I'd say that there is a pretty broad range of speed and endurance among them. A local running goods company has "social runs" (at what I consider more social hours) starting from its locations. I'd be surprised to hear that Melbourne does have something comparable. And there are softball leagues and kickball leagues.

Why is it "weird" to want to restrict an event to only lesbians? It only seems to be "weird" if you impose a false public/private dichotomy on it. But, presumably, the lesbian group doesn't care about "public" or "private", only "lesbian" or "not lesbian".
