Woman change after having a baby, which is totally normal that they become totally risk adverse and very protective. This, a holiday to Machu Pitchu is deemed to many unknowns towards the baby vs. a short trip to a nearby totally quiet forest. | null | null | 41,790,121 | 41,788,246 | null | [

41,790,301 | comment | saulpw | 2024-10-09T17:18:39 | null | If you have a strategy and need plans, maybe you could use an AI (probably not LLMs). If you need a strategy, maybe you can feed high-level goals into an AI and it could come up with one (though it will have difficulty thinking outside its box). But the primary value of a CEO is being the definitive source of high-level goals and systemic values. An AI is not going to come up with those, except by mimicking the stated goals and values of other CEOs.<p>It's easy to say "the high-level goal is maximizing profit" but as we all lament daily, having that as a goal is both vapid and only functional in the short-term. | null | null | 41,781,881 | 41,771,331 | null | [

It's always better to get one nickel each from 100 people than 100 nickels from one person. If you get one nickel each from 100 customers, losing a customer won't hurt you. If you only have one customer, losing them is an existential problem. Also, if you have a customer that is singularly large enough, then that customer will inevitably start to direct how you operate your business.<p>The extreme example of this is being an employee. In that situation, you have a business with exactly one customer and so that customer has the power to demand all sorts fairly extreme things from you, such as having to work in particular places at particular times, dictating exactly how you engage in that work, etc. | null | null | 41,790,081 | 41,790,081 | null | null | null | null |

If you started to seize their paper wealth and give it to everyone else, the value of that paper would immediately fall, not just from the threat of seizing it but their lack of ownership and stewardship would make it crumble.<p>When someone actually uses their money, like to buy a mansion, we do indeed tax the shit out of it. We tax the corporation, we tax the dividends, we tax the gains, we tax the seller of the property and we make the buyer pay various fees. We tax the property yearly, and we increase the assessed value of it upwards to get more tax every year. Tax tax tax.<p>The only place to get more tax is to just seize the paper straight.

We've only had one multi-day outage in the 12 years we've lived here, because our wiring is all underground and it took a century level storm to wipe it out. We get occasional outages of a few minutes to a couple hours in the winter if a tree hits a power line somewhere in the nearby above-ground grid, but that's about it. I'd still love to be the only guy in the neighborhood all lit up when everyone else goes dark :). To be fair, I'd actually be #2 now, guy a few houses up the street is that beacon of light now. But still.<p>When we were shopping for houses out in the sticks, I had that generator budgeted right into the price of the house. If I got a multi-day outage very year, it's a no brainer. | null | null | 41,787,612 | 41,764,095 | null | [

41,790,357 | comment | kragen | 2024-10-09T17:23:01 | null | Do you know if VAX BASIC fixed the other problems I mentioned in BASIC, other than being interpreted? You were the one that brought it up as an alternative. Specifically, did it have record types, local variables, and subroutine parameters? This is the third time I've asked in this thread, but possibly you didn't notice the first two times.<p>I think "a macro assembler with nicer syntax" is an excellent summary of C. Though it's transitioning to "a retrocomputing programming language we have to support in order to be able to run software that was written long ago".<p>I agree that many other macro assemblers have more powerful macro capabilities than C. After looking at most of the output of the group that produced Unix, I think that's on purpose: cpp was <i>deliberately</i> less powerful than GPM or m6, but that's not because they weren't familiar with m6 or couldn't figure out how to write it, and ed was <i>deliberately</i> less powerful than QED or TECO, but that wasn't because they weren't familiar with QED. Possibly Plauger's remark about how one of the worst things he'd done in his life was to write a relocating linker in QED provides a clue as to why.<p>With the benefit of 45–55 years of hindsight, the decision to prioritize clarity over expressiveness in ed and cpp seems to have really paid off. You seem to disagree, but you don't say why; maybe you think it's axiomatic that more expressive languages are better, despite the fact that we're having this discussion in HTML rather than PostScript or TeX, using URLs rather than Smalltalk or Open Firmware bytecode packets, with browsers written mostly in C++ rather than Scheme or Common Lisp, over TCP/IP rather than CHAOSNET. If my suggested axiom were correct, all of those would be the other way around.<p>I'd like to see RatC, but I haven't been able to find old editions of A Book on C, and the later revisions seem to have removed it.<p>I don't see how Modula-2 is relevant to a discussion about Pascal. There were lots of Pascal-inspired languages in the 70s and 80s; Modula-2 was neither the most influential one nor Wirth's favorite.<p>It remains true that you could easily do portable systems programming in C in the late 70s and 80s, and you could do nonportable systems programming in VAX Pascal, but doing portable systems programming in Pascal required major compromises when it was possible at all. (Just to clarify, when I say "systems" I don't mean "kernels"; I mean "not applications", as you clearly also did when you said "VMS also supported Pascal and BASIC dialects for systems programming.")<p>There were other parts of your comment I wasn't able to make any sense of, but if you feel you said something I haven't responded to, please feel free to clarify. | null | null | 41,774,468 | 41,766,293 | null | null | null | null |

But now it would be taxed if you use it as collateral for anything. If you don't want to pay capital gains by selling the underlying stock then you can just get a bigger loan and pay the taxes out of that.<p>There, now you don't have to liquidate but the taxpayers benefit too when the wealth is "used" by the owner. | null | null | 41,783,931 | 41,780,569 | null | [

41,790,385 | comment | CooCooCaCha | 2024-10-09T17:24:26 | null | Ah I think I wasn’t clear. I don’t really care if time moves sequentially or jumps around in random order. My concern is with the existence of time itself.<p>What gives space meaning is coordinates, which allow multiple things to exist separately from each other. Likewise you need another coordinate to differentiate “snapshots” of the universe. So in that sense time is necessary to differentiate two states. But i understand we’re talking about a more fundamental notion of time so i get what you’re saying.<p>Perhaps a better way to put it is time is necessary for events to happen. Let’s say you could view the universe from the outside, ok great but what can you do with that? You still need time to <i>do</i> things even if you’re outside the universe. Otherwise it would literally be frozen and meaningless.<p>That’s my issue with these timeless theories is people imagine viewing the universe as a static 4D object but they still talk about it as if things are happening outside the universe and you need time for events to happen.<p>If time doesn’t exist then a “gods eye view” is meaningless because nothing could happen from that perspective either. It’s also a strong statement about the origins of reality because if time doesn’t exist then reality could not have been created through any process.

41,790,395 | comment | rjknight | 2024-10-09T17:25:25 | null | Valibot is really nice, particularly for avoiding bundle size bloat. Because Zod uses a "fluent builder" API, all of Zod's functionality is implemented in classes with many methods. Importing something like `z.string` also imports validators to check if the string is a UUID, email address, has a minimum or maximum length, matches a regex, and so on - even if none of those validators are used. Valibot makes these independent functions that are composed using the "pipe" function, which means that only the functions which are actually used need to be included in your JavaScript bundle. Since most apps use only a small percentage of the available validators, the bundle size reduction can be quite significant relative to Zod. | null | null | 41,790,169 | 41,764,163 | null | [
