But prepare for 3-5 steps and rest routine in higher parts, pushing through is actually pretty stupid and will fire back quickly and badly, listen to your body.<p>That being said, what others say is correct - a lot of endurance training helps a lot reaching the limit of your body. Plus train carrying medium backpack uphill a lot (10-15kg).<p>I've camped 6000m high on Aconcagua, but I couldn't sleep well above 3000m, almost nothing above 4000m, regardless of what mild medicine/support I took. Some sleep up there like babies. High mountains are just not for me, but I am happy with European alps though, they have it all apart from that much altitude suffering. Higher peaks just for hiking below/around them like Annapurna or Everest, loaded multi week 5500m hikes are not easy neither and you actually experience way more in 3-4 weeks rather than progressing slowly up one empty valley to the top. | null | null | 41,797,707 | 41,787,798 | null | [

41,800,218 | comment | opo | 2024-10-10T15:59:20 | null | >...but it's common practice.<p>There are many web pages claiming this, but I haven't seen actual statistics on this loophole. To be clear, many, many, people borrow against the value of an asset - from the middle class up to the ultra wealthy and they can defer capital gains in that way. The claim with buy, borrow, die is that you can borrow for decades and not have to pay back the loan until death. Some claim that the rich just keep rolling over loans on to new loans to avoid paying interest/principal for decades. The reddit posting discussing this has been edited since it was first discussed on hacker news, but now it emphasizes that the bank and the ultra wealthy person come to some sort of agreement to share in the gains of the asset upon death. Considering the length of the agreement it seems it would difficult to come up with an agreement that would be fair to both sides in that agreement.<p>I saw that on reddit, /u/Taxing responded to a different post by the author of the reddit posting and was skeptical of how common this approach is:<p>>...I too went to law school, earned my LL.M. from NYU and have been practicing in this area for decades with broad family office clients ranging from a few hundred million to many billions, and yes have clients with public companies, private companies, and taken companies between the two structures. I’ve worked at every level and now sit on the boards, manage the relationships, etc., which I enjoy more.<p>>...I struggle to think of a single family office interested in a lifelong arrangement with Goldman or other firm at that level, providing them strings of participation and control. Over time, circumstances change, and they are not your friend.<p>So, maybe, the "Buy, Borrow, Die" approach is common practice, but I have yet to see any actual stats on it. | null | null | 41,784,807 | 41,780,569 | null | null | null | null |

Trump sits on the shoulders of those who came before and set the stage for the Trump policy. My Alito example above is an instructive one. Bush can be seen as laying a 20 year foundation towards overturning Roe or the Chevron doctrine. I remember when Roberts was appointed, mainstream press talked up how moderate and reasonable he was, but I never bought it -- and how we see he isn't.<p>The rhetoric appeals to the base... But that base got radicalized by prior eras. Decades of complaining about big government. Fox News demonizing Pelosi and "San Francisco values". Karl Rove's permanent campaign mode. Much of that discourse was fully formed in 2004. The Bush people knew to reign it in sometimes, that is the difference. | null | null | 41,799,988 | 41,790,295 | null | [

Java support shipped with Netscape Navigator 2 in 1995, and 95/96/97 is when Java hype and applet experimentation peaked.<p>Netscape dominated this era.

Back then JS wasn’t very capable itself and Netscape was clearly willing to work to promote Java, to the point of mutilating and renaming the language that became JavaScript. I’m not sure back then there was even the term or concept of DOM, and certainly no AJAX.

41,800,247 | comment | jandrewrogers | 2024-10-10T16:02:41 | null | > Why is your program so full of casts between pointer types that you have difficulty determining if you've avoided strict aliasing?<p>I write database storage engines. Most of the runtime address space is being dynamically paged to storage directly by user space. You can't use mmap() for this. Consequently, objects don't have a fixed address over their lifetime and what a pointer actually points to is not always knowable at compile-time. These are all things that have to be dynamically resolved at runtime with zero copies in every context the memory might be touched. Fairly standard high-performance database stuff. The intrinsic ambiguity about the contents of a memory address create many opportunities to inadvertently create strict aliasing violations.<p>I've been doing it a long time, so I know the correct incantation for virtually every difficult strict aliasing edge case. Most developers are ignorant of at least some of these incantations because they are surprisingly difficult to lookup, it took me years to figure out some of them. When developers don't know they tend to YOLO it and hope the compiler does the desired thing. Which mostly works in practice, until it doesn't.<p>Recent versions of C++ have added explicit helper functions, which is a big improvement. Most developers don't know the code incantation required to reliably achieve the same effect as std::start_lifetime_as and they shouldn't have to. | null | null | 41,797,958 | 41,757,701 | null | [

All in all it's far from convenient and can kick in at inopportune times. Having around the clock insights would hopefully give me a better understanding of the condition. For context, I've jumped through all sorts of specialty doctor hoops and there is no known underlying cause outside of the fact that it just showed up after Covid.<p>Do you or anyone you know happen to have firsthand experience with the device? | null | null | 41,800,122 | 41,799,324 | null | [

41,800,256 | comment | m_rpn | 2024-10-10T16:03:27 | null | Maybe it's just that everyone is too fixated on "creating value for customers", might it be that customers don't really want value, but they just want to buy stuff? This might explain this big divergence in our real world experiences. It's either this or that most businesses actually do bring some value and have a degree of understanding of what they're doing, otherwise no customer would be buying anything and unemployment rate would be closer to 99% everywhere. | null | null | 41,799,037 | 41,797,009 | null | null | null | null |

There was a ~1.8x bump between the start of COVID and now, and now things are looking more like 15%/year to me.

When writing low level codes, it makes sense to know how exactly the compilers implement these rules.<p>In particular, regarding aliasing, GCC has a very specific conservative definition (stores can always change the underlying type, reads must read the last written type) that doesn't necessarily match what other compilers do.<p>>> It isn't, but it is a family of languages that share a lot of syntax and semantics.
> I am not a C/C++/C#/ObjectiveC/JavaScript/Java programmer.<p>C#, Java, JS share a bit of syntax, but certainly not semantics. ObjectiveC/C++ definitely belong. There is a trivial mapping from most C++ constructs to the corresponding C ones. | null | null | 41,798,669 | 41,757,701 | null | [

41,800,262 | comment | spease | 2024-10-10T16:04:31 | null | The big difference (inasmuch as I am aware) is in source compatibility in practice.<p>If I use a header file, as any pre-C++-20 library will (have the major compilers implemented modules <i>yet</i>?), I am SOL. I am specifying a text-import of that library’s code into my code. You’d need an “extern C++11”.<p>As for comparing them at 10 years old, apparent language size might be similar, but in terms of program complexity C++ would be DOA.<p>You’re telling me it takes an equal amount of time to learn these languages, but with Rust I can write code that works on the first try, while with C++ I have to account for data races and memory mistakes at every level of my program? Why do I, a 90s programmer dealing with OSes without process separation and soon the dotcom boom, want to touch that with a 10-foot pole?<p>Java and C# would not exist. There’d be far too little value proposition with an alternative to C++’s memory-unsafety to justify the development of a whole new language.<p>You’d probably see the equivalent of Python and JavaScript (probably named RustScript following the logic of the time). There’d probably be a Go equivalent developed, ie “language that compiles fast and runs almost as fast as Rust that stresses language simplicity”. Language expressiveness and simplicity are at odds with each other and there are uses of both.<p>To be fair, Rust was developed with the last 30 years of programming in mind. But the thing is, memory safety kept on being a central issue of the languages that followed.<p>The next big design issue will probably have more to do with people trying to use LLMs as a first-class programming language. Eg something that’s easy for LLMs to write and humans to read.<p>Or something to do with heterogenous computing resources all sharing the same “program”. However here Rust seems already positioned to do well with its compile-time tracking of asynchronous resource dependencies between threads of computation, and procedural macros that can invoke an external compiler.<p>So I’m not sure that conventional language design is going to change the path it’s been on for the last 30 years until the human side of that interface starts to significantly change.<p>Most of the language design considerations we’re discussing boil down to “make things manageable to humans with limited memory”. If cybernetic augmentation or bioengineering sharply expands those limits, I suppose it could change the direction. Otherwise it feels like things are going to naturally cluster around “complex correct thing” and “simple iterable thing” because those are the two strategies humans can use to deal with complexity beyond the scope they can keep in their head at once. | null | null | 41,799,838 | 41,791,773 | null | null | null | null |

41,800,265 | comment | pragma_x | 2024-10-10T16:04:40 | null | I absolutely love it when we can take advantage of Go's type system and add additional traits and behaviors to existing types like this.<p>That said, I noticed something odd here. In order for a module like this to really shine, I think all these operations need to be functionally pure. Right now, some of these mutate the iterator's `iter` method mid-stream, which is about as side-effect-ful as you can get.<p>```<p>func (i <i>Iterator[V]) Map(f func(V) V) </i>Iterator[V] {<p>cpy := i.iter<p>i.iter = func(yield func(V) bool) {<p><pre><code> for v := range cpy {
v = f(v)
if !yield(v) {
return
}
}
}
return i
</code></pre>
}
```<p>Unless I'm misreading that, `i.iter` has new behavior after this call. A better way would be to return a new _iterator_ with the custom iter behavior instead.<p>```
func (i <i>Iterator[V]) Map(f func(V) V) </i>Iterator[V] {<p><pre><code> // create a fresh iterator around a custom closure (NewIterator() is hypothetical in this case)
return NewIterator(func(yield func(V) bool) {
for v := range i.iter {
v = f(v)
if !yield(v) {
return
}
}
})
</code></pre>

41,800,271 | comment | int_19h | 2024-10-10T16:05:15 | null | In IPA notation, it's the difference between [ʎɵ] and [ʎjɵ], and contrasting the two is fairly rare in natural languages; East Slavic is somewhat unusual in that regard. If someone's language does not have this contrast, it sounds very similar to them, and distinguishing the two can be very difficult. Even in languages where such a distinction exists, there's a tendency towards a merger - Serbo-Croatian is one example of that, but the same is also happening in e.g. some dialects of Spanish with "ñ" [ɲ] vs "ny" [nj]. English speakers also have this problem with Spanish, by the way, hence why "cañon" became "canyon".<p>In general, what's perceived as "very different" or not is very subjective based on what one is used to. E.g. the distinction between "v" and "w" is very significant in English, but for speakers of many Slavic languages, those are allophones, and when they learn English they have trouble using them correctly. | null | null | 41,796,075 | 41,787,647 | null | null | null | null |

41,800,298 | comment | emporas | 2024-10-10T16:08:15 | null | I would say that brain asymmetry probably is not the cause of hand and leg asymmetry. It has to do either with venomous [1] plants and animals or with muscle use and fatigue.<p>When the hand is stung or burned it performs a quick centrifugal movement instinctively. Then many mammals can suck some blood out with their mouths. That minimizes the venom in circulation, and some additional time to get to the heart might be less damaging, especially when the venom is not very plentiful like bees, scorpions etc.<p>When the venom is of a big quantity, like big snakes then probably it doesn't make a difference.<p>One other factor is muscle isolation and helping the heart to not get tired from work. Considering that the whole point of gyms is muscle isolation, which is very difficult to achieve normally, a human or monkey cracking nuts or cracking bones for hours, it will tire the left side (where the heart is located) much more increase palpitations, and consequently the risk for heart attack.<p>That last one could be tested, working more using the left hand -> increase palpitations or not. As a counter example, the chimp when it cracks the turtle, it works with both hands [2].<p>[1] Venomous not poisonous i misspoke previously.
