Dental is also typically not covered by medical insurance in the US (dental insurance is separate and works differently).

There&#x27;s also the infamous bucket brigade from Hurricane Sandy.

&gt; I think that latency people grow up with has a huge impact on how careful they are when using the internet.<p>This reminds me a ton about the studies showing harm to children&#x27;s future mental health as a result of growing up poor. I definitely &quot;hoard&quot; data locally because I grew up with accessing BBSs at 1200 baud, moving up thru dial-uo Internet, and eventually shitty DSL. Services and products that rely on constant access to the Internet strike me as dodgy and likely to fail as a result of my &quot;upbringing&quot;.

Poor analogy imo. It&#x27;s socially acceptable to talk about movies that were aired years ago with or without a warning. It&#x27;s never socially acceptable to infect someones computer with malware prior to explicit consent. There&#x27;s an expectation that someone writing about spoilers, will in fact detail the spoiler in question. Given that&#x27;s an expectation you consent to being told about the spoiler by reading the article. If that isn&#x27;t an expectation, I&#x27;m curious what you or anyone else had hoped the article would be talking about?

&gt; And if businesses are acting irrationally?<p>That seems to be the most plausible answer. Businesses are led by people and acting irrationally even when not financially beneficial isn&#x27;t out of the realm of reality.<p>Businesses in the same industry already suffer from a herd mentality, doing the opposite thing that others are doing is risky, most leaders will choose less risk. It becomes dominoes, one leader from a benchmark company makes a hard to quantify wrong decision, another will follow, the side-effects will take a few years to crop up and by then almost the whole industry will have followed suit.

Sure, there was this service to embellish the books provided by Goldman Sachs.<p>But moving on from moral arguments, the crux is that only some 5% of the bailout money actually stayed in Greece [1].<p>Furthermore, it takes two to tango: the banks did not diversify their debt portfolio [2], they lent because they wanted to, and, knew Greek debt implied higher risk. After all, that’s why these loans commanded a higher interest compared to other sovereign debt.<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;amp.dw.com&#x2F;en&#x2F;most-of-greek-bailout-money-went-to-banks-study&#x2F;a-19234391" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;amp.dw.com&#x2F;en&#x2F;most-of-greek-bailout-money-went-to-ba...</a><p>[2] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;econreview.studentorg.berkeley.edu&#x2F;a-tale-of-two-countries-a-history-of-the-greek-debt-crisis&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;econreview.studentorg.berkeley.edu&#x2F;a-tale-of-two-cou...</a>

I also don’t know how to refine my thought but it’s something along the lines of:<p>The people who are in a position to decide what features get added to a language are usually top experts and are unlikely to have any reasonable perspective on how complicated is too complicated for the rest of us.<p>If you live and breathe a language, just one more feature can seem like a small deal.<p>I think it becomes much more reasonable when that one more feature enables an entire set of capabilities and isn’t just something a library or an existing feature could cover.

Show HN: I am slowly building a mobile epic RTS game with 10k ships
Here we go, another indie game dev story haha.<p>I&#x27;ve been a gamer for as long as I can remember, always dreaming of making my own games one day. Life got in the way for a long time, but now I&#x27;ve finally had the chance to create Galactic Admirals (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.galacticadmirals.com" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.galacticadmirals.com</a>), my love letter to the RTS genre, the promise of mobile gaming with a retro minimalist touch. I goal is to put 10,000 playable ships on the screen.<p>Inspired by my love of games, movies, anime, and novels about naval warfare, space, and strategy, this game is something I&#x27;ve dreamt about for a long time. The current version of the game available is just the first step. Rather than building something massive, complicated, and something no one wants to play, I am focused on building in steps.<p>Focus for now is getting the core gameplay right; so I am building fast and slowly lol, keeping it small on purpose, shipping it quickly so I can expand it piece by piece, learning and improving along the way. With each update, I aim to refine and expand the game, learning from your feedback every step of the way.<p>I hope you&#x27;ll give Galactic Admirals a try and share your honest feedback.<p>P.S. I am going to blog along the way. I think the cool kids call it buildingitinpublic =). <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;galacticadmirals.com&#x2F;#developer-blog" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;galacticadmirals.com&#x2F;#developer-blog</a>

The application can be viewed as a companion to Windows Performance Analyzer (WPA), offering some unique features based on the binary analysis it performs and the IDE-like UI, such as easy navigation through disassembly, improved mapping to source lines, displaying the function control-flow graph, viewing of multiple functions at the same time, marking, searching, filtering and much more.

It doesn&#x27;t really matter, because perfect shouldn&#x27;t be the enemy of good. You&#x27;re correct the world is gray, but if you&#x27;re able to make a product switch without too much effort then go for it.<p>I mean, if I reduce my plastic use because I stop buying product X then that&#x27;s still better (in my eyes) than if I did nothing. Or if Company Y has some egregious political ties, I cut them off, but Company Z is a huge conglomerate so I can&#x27;t cut them off. Still a better deal than doing nothing.

Rotoscoping was utilized for some difficult shots. Mostly live action was used for reference, not directly traced, Fleischer style. I&#x27;ve never seen rotoscoping that looked so masterful as Snow White and similar golden age films.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=smqEmTujHP8" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=smqEmTujHP8</a>

&gt; 99% of the time, it really does. If you can&#x27;t trust something as basic and well-defined as `Map` to do what you expect it to do, you&#x27;ve chosen a poor library on which to take a dependency.<p>The original comment said:<p><pre><code> it = slices.Map(it) </code></pre> I understand Map taking an array and a function, as in the article. I don&#x27;t understand Map taking simply an array.<p>Then I went to look it up, and turns out that slices.Map does not in fact exist. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;pkg.go.dev&#x2F;slices" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;pkg.go.dev&#x2F;slices</a><p>Personally I feel like this exchange is a vivid illustration of exactly my original point.

They could of course just do that, so there is no benefit from it being in block chain compared with anywhere else.<p>The only advantage block chain provides is you don&#x27;t have to trust anyone. Eg you don&#x27;t have to trust GitHub to not delete or modify the repo themselves, but they weren&#x27;t any part of the problem here.

I recall a video essay years ago that made the case that the reason companies like Bell and RCA were so successful and produced so many R&amp;D products was because the tax code incentivized reinvesting profits into the company, and the pursuit of patents to license to other companies specializing in manufacturing as a means of revenue as opposed to vertical conglomerates. Wish I&#x27;d bookmarked it, because they did an excellent job citing sources as well.<p>My subjective experiences tell me that, just like the early days of the microcomputer revolution, anything is possible with talented nerds who don&#x27;t have to worry about grinding at their day jobs to survive. Early markets are often defined by those with the privilege to innovate absent the need to work to survive, and sharing the fruits of their labors with the masses because that&#x27;s their entire intent - and that being able to live off of that income instead of a corporate gig was a nice bonus.<p>If you want more innovation, focus on eliminating societal precarity instead of slashing regulations or growing monopolies.

Given that “humans are complex” and “it’s individualized”, would advancements be greater and faster by just allowing clinicians and scientists to just talk things out instead of coming up with “studies” which pretend to be “science” with a low reproducibility rate (and non-publishing on null results)?

Over the last few decades there has been quite the rug-pull in &quot;functional programming&quot;!<p>1) programming which is based on &quot;functions&quot; (procedures) as values, including anonymous lambdas (hence map&#x2F;fold&#x2F;etc paradigms), which is only really possible in languages that intentionally support it<p>2) programming where every procedure (except some boundary code for IO&#x2F;etc) is truly is a well-defined mathematical function, which is possible in almost any programming language<p>1) describes any language you would call a &quot;functional programming language,&quot; whereas 2) involves well-understood concepts around mutability and determinism that a minority (correctly) describe as &quot;pure functional programming.&quot;<p>So I think it&#x27;s a bit judgmental to say &quot;lack of insight&quot; when it&#x27;s more about shifting terminology. A very high-reliability C program might be &quot;purely functional&quot; (inside of an IO&#x2F;memory boundary) and built by engineers with the precise insight you&#x27;re discussing, but in most contexts it would be odd to say &quot;purely functional,&quot; especially if the code eschews C mechanics around function pointers. In most imperative contexts it is clearer to describe purely functional ideas in terms of imperative programming (which are equally clear, if less philosophically interesting).

Ok. So kind of like problem with Drake Equation. Depending on made up % for each variable, can have wild swings.<p>I don&#x27;t think that is the case here.<p>The &#x27;science&#x27; around counting deaths is older and more fleshed out than you are giving credit. People have been studying the impact of different types of events and co-factors on counting deaths for many decades. This isn&#x27;t just winging it with some new made up statistics.

You are right. I am projecting, but there is a reason why I am. I really don&#x27;t want anyone to miss out on the opportunity, it&#x27;s fricking hard but its the most worthwhile thing most people can ever do. We&#x27;ve been led to believe that having kids takes away from you, that&#x27;s BS. Anyway I seem to have touched a nerve, I sense some cognitive dissonance within you. On a primal level you know it makes sense, on a thinking level you are conflicting. Follow your natural instinct it&#x27;s been engineered by nature to ensure our survival.

Hi HN - this was an interesting project that involved going deep into the Postgres wire protocol. We managed to get true Postgres proxy&#x2F;routing logic working by handling TLS+SNI at the PG protocol level, something that other API gateways don&#x27;t give you. We bundled this logic into pg-gateway, a new MIT library we built to handle protocol messages from the server side:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;supabase-community&#x2F;pg-gateway">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;supabase-community&#x2F;pg-gateway</a>

Precisely, I&#x27;ve worked at a couple of places where software developers were treated like assembly line workers who convert tickets into code, and on one occasion I was even told that it wasn&#x27;t my job to ask questions designed to improve my big-picture understanding of the problem, use-cases, etc.<p>I feel like the &quot;programmers only care about code&quot; trope is perpetuated by people who aren&#x27;t good at sharing knowledge, or who lack intimate understanding of their customers&#x27; needs themselves and have to resort to pointing fingers.<p>Some programmers are like that, certainly, but if most developers one comes across are like that then one might have to look inwards.

Just in my suburb of a major city, within, say 5 miles of me, physical banks that aren&#x27;t the top 5: a bunch of small banks (Southstate, Cadence, MemberFirst, FirstCitizen, OZK, Unity National, Southern First, First Horizon, City National, Hyperion), at least 6 credit unions (usually considered &#x27;small banks&#x27;: Delta Community, Navy Federal, Emory, Associated, American Postal, Peach State), banks that are &#x27;small but something else&#x27; (BestBank (bought by First Citizen I think), associated with Kroger, Woodforest National associated with Walmart) and 4 regionals (Truist, Synovus, Regions, Ameris (which is a rollup of 4 or so small local banks around here)).<p>How <i>do</i> they stay in business I wonder since noone sees them and noone banks there? What was your point again?

&gt; If you have potentially a problematic computation, put it in a variable and log it out<p>My point was: what a &quot;potentially problematic&quot; computation is is not always known in advance. A style which is rich in local variables, when combined with a tool that shows actual values for all local variables when unhandled exceptions occur gives you this &quot;for free&quot;. I.e. no need to log anything.

Yes, I am not saying that you can withstand any event.<p>I have seen &gt;3&#x27; of water next to a building with infrastructure in the ground level that were fine, though. Seepage barriers and sump pumps and elevating things a little bit can do more than you&#x27;d think.<p>It&#x27;s also worth noting that however high the storm surge is -- your infrastructure is probably at least a little above sea level.

I&#x27;ve always wondered about how much the quality of the manufacturing matters. I&#x27;ve had probably a dozen pairs of jeans in as many years, and on average they fail after wearing them for 100-200 days of light usage (e.g. office, not gardening). However, despite them not being particularly high quality manufacturing, the part that always fails is the fabric itself, not the seams&#x2F;edges. Is that the expected lifetime of denim? Would jeans that are 2x the cost have denim that lasts 2x as long? Does the quality of craftsmanship matter if the fabric is what fails first?

I use the “maximize video” chrome extension which may work for you. You can click on any video player and it will make that take up the whole browser window size. So then the video size == the browser window size. I use it to panel multiple videos around my screen (mostly for watching multiple NFL games at the same time).<p>I also use Better Touch Tool which supports keyboard shortcuts for arranging windows, I believe there’s a similar tool for windows. So for example if I want 4 equal sized windows (in each quadrant of the monitor) I can do it easily with keyboard shortcuts.

Regarding open source that labor is expensive, rare, and at any given time insufficient to need. In this case it also has a value only in context of the majority containing to do it. What is being signalled here is a lack of desire to keep doing it followed by nobody opting to volunteer for the mission.<p>Basically you&#x27;ve been a guest long enough and now the towels, entertainment, and snacks are going away. If this appears blunt it is pretty obvious why bluntness is required anything else asks for a decade of free support given by inched at the expense of more laudible goals.

Unfortunately, I&#x27;m very sure that there is no one simple answer—it&#x27;s so many interlocking things: education spending, voting rights, voting reform (eg, ranked-choice), more spending on basic needs...<p>On the bright side, this also means that improvement in <i>any</i> of them also helps, even if only a little bit, to pull the whole tangle further up.

To wit: they want to build a Lunar GPS&#x2F;GNSS nav system, and this is the time-sync part of the nav system. Lunar time runs faster than Earth TAI atomic time by 1 millisecond every 2 weeks, 21 ms per year, or 1 second every 48 years.

Probably because their official stated purpose has been “conducting investigations into currency and financial-payment crime, and protecting U.S. political leaders, their families, and visiting heads of state or government.”[0] Especially since US secret service was originally created with the former purpose, as protection of political leaders was added to their list of responsibilities only later on.<p>0. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;United_States_Secret_Service" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;United_States_Secret_Service</a>

While I agree with this, I will say that people most susceptible to propaganda and confirmation bias are people who lack critical thinking skills IMO.<p>Critical thinking and evidence-based reasoning, as taught in your average language arts and social studies courses, specifically calls out bias and teaches kids how to be skeptical. When I was in school, we read passages and books and got to make whatever conclusion we wanted. But the essay we wrote had to be evidence-based. The teacher didn&#x27;t care so much what we said, but rather that we could form a logical string to say it.<p>All this is to say, I think yes - if public education is further destroyed this will only get worse.

We&#x27;ve learned that it hasn&#x27;t produced much research that holds up to replication, that the vast majority of research never gets properly replicated at all anyway, and that despite the endless meta-analysis of glorified internet surveys people&#x27;s mental health hasn&#x27;t been improving.<p>We&#x27;re certainly learning how to use psychology to manipulate people though. Advertising, dark patterns, propaganda, and behavioral conditioning just wouldn&#x27;t be the same without psychology research. We&#x27;re performing research on children to learn the youngest age they can recognize a brand name (age 3 last I checked) or how best to keep them hooked playing a video game&#x2F;child casino though and that research is making companies money hand over fist.

Yeah, it goes both ways. There are exceptions for gross misconduct, but apart from that, if you’re on, say, a month’s notice, then<p>- you have to give them a month’s notice if you want to stop working for them<p>- they have to give you a month’s notice if they don’t want you to work for them anymore<p>Sometimes, instead of giving you notice, they’ll pay you what you would have earned during your notice period to have you leave immediately. (“Payment in lieu of notice”) I think the idea there is that they don’t want people hanging around if the company has decided to get rid of them.<p>Also: sometimes when you hand in your notice, your old employer will let you go sooner (so you can start your new job sooner). It depends how badly they need you for your notice period, and whether actually they could use the cash from your salary to do something else instead.

In fact, that&#x27;s actually <i>why</i> I&#x27;m resistant to further &quot;webification&quot; of software and applications, as it&#x27;s the same drawbacks as nested virtualization: now we have the OS layer that makes the computer run <i>and</i> the web browser layer to interact with stuff to worry about, both of which have their own performance penalties and threat profiles.<p>As much as I love REST APIs (and boy, do I love them and their simplicity), I don&#x27;t like the idea of everything running a web server when it doesn&#x27;t have to be.

I agree; the point of a struct type would be to allow a compact memory representation, and you&#x27;re not going to get it if your constructor can do if(someArg) { a = 1; } else { a = 1; b = 2; }.<p>You don&#x27;t strictly need known&#x2F;consistent types, but it sure helps, since otherwise everything needs to be 8 bytes.<p>I don&#x27;t think a way to read into and out of ArrayBuffers is possible, since these can have pointers in them. I think it needs a StructArray class instead, so there&#x27;s a way to actually make a compact memory array out of all of this.

&gt;Are they implicitly signing up to be the customer service for these folks who are used to an OS-as-a-product type setup?<p>I mean first off, yes most people using Linux have no problem with helping people out, my guess is linux users are probably 100x more active on support platforms than anyone else. (if not more)<p>But also, who on earth has Microsoft customer service? Big businesses sure, but do you think most Windows users get customer support, big tech companies stopped connecting you to a human being like ten years ago. Everyone just googles when something breaks no matter the OS. I&#x27;m just so tired of the meme that there is any meaningful difference at this point. I&#x27;ve been using stock Ubuntu Desktop for 12(?) years, out of the box, no weird tinkering.<p>Do you know how often friends and family call me because something broke on their Windows machine and I&#x27;m the &quot;tech guy&quot;? This is the experience of every programmer I know. What difference does it make if they run Linux, yes stuff will break but we&#x27;ve been fixing stuff breaking anyway.

Geometry shaders are not part of base Vulkan. They&#x27;re an extension.

No need for OCR as it has access to the compositor as they explained at the Build conference.

The article is just hilariously bad. Whatever he writes about coca and cocaine is just wrong.<p>The leaves contain the base. The base has a low melting point and can be smoked (crack).<p>Cocaine hydrochloride is created chemically from the base. It is water soluble and can snorted. Because of the PH of the blood it decomposes into the base.<p>Chemically there is no difference once the drug is in the blood stream

This actually used to be the norm: you&#x27;d release slowly, and support old versions for years (which still isn&#x27;t that long, all things considered). It wasn&#x27;t until relatively recently that six months became some sort of unconscionable amount of time to support software, because it&#x27;s friendlier to the companies and developers writing it, instead of the users using it.

I find Gnome on stock Ubuntu pretty terrible for someone used to Windows, since workflows are different and you can&#x27;t adjust anything.<p>KDE and Kubuntu are pretty close though. I&#x27;d never really considered fully switching to Linux a usable option before I found it, but I&#x27;ve been running it for a few years on my laptop and recently on my work pc, and once Win10 is EoL it&#x27;ll probably be the only thing I still run on the rest of my machines. The nice side effect of bloated Electron apps is that at least now most things work on all platforms lmao.

I&#x27;d suggest no one should investigate. So you lost your Bitcoin from some massive fraud? Too bad. That&#x27;s the cost of playing that game. You should not get a free pass when you ask your government for assistance, and you should not have your government investing time and money looking into massive fraud concerning Internet Fun Bucks. You assume all risk when using this kind of money.

Very early EVs (GM&#x27;s EV1 and then a few other GMs) used banks and banks of water cooled IGBTs to spin the motor.

I have a constant battle with Kudzu every year. I wish we could find an easier way to kill the stuff, or transform it into something else.<p>That being said, goats will dig down and eat the hell out of the stuff.

&gt; a person who kills somebody else definitely has mental issues that come from their childhood<p>People that kill other people often function well in their society. It doesn&#x27;t make sense to me to classify that as mental issues. People are inherently territorial, aggressive animals - at least to the extent being so doesn&#x27;t make them much of an outlier.

Right, but that&#x27;s not what AMD is doing here. They&#x27;re using water to move heat a few inches. Heat pipes should be more efficient at that distance.
