It's certainly easier in tropical countries because you can just use the cold knob, but it's doable in colder places as well. Even using both hot and cold sources to get a comparable temperature, it isn't as easy to get into the shower when the weather is colder. I've noticed that the coldness of the water only bothers me for the first 20 seconds of the shower, so I'll use a bit more heat then turn it colder.

I have three reasons why the comment they made was not worthwhile.

1. Tiresome; it gets made every thread, rebutted every thread, and no progress is made in the discussion. It's time to stop saying the same thing over and over.

2. In bad faith; it does not respond meaningfully to the discussion. Something being legal does not make it ethically optimal.

3. Inciteful; these comments are lightning rods for emotional arguments in the replies. If a comment always causes low-quality discussion, then it's a low-quality comment.

You're free to disagree with my points. I suppose I started the character shitflinging by calling the author a troll, but I really think anybody that's been reading HN for long enough (a decade, in that user's case) can do better if they intend to.

So I'm... what? What are you talking about? In what universe is the topic of discussion here about what's popular? If you willingly facilitate people with the intent to hurt and kill, the blood is also on your hands for failure to act. This is about ethical duty. Facebook is trying not to shirk this ethical duty. The top-level comment believes they are misapplying and overreaching in their effort to do this. Both my comment and the one it replies to largely do not touch even this discussion, their shtick is property rights and mine is substantive discourse. If you think I made a point about censoring unpopular content, you replied to the wrong comment.

Secondly, your tone suggests you'd think I have an inconsistent worldview if I believe moderators should perform any moderation action at all? You'll have to explain how that makes sense to you, because moderators providing escalating warnings to users that post insubstantive and volatile comments is something that's been with me for a long time and I'm rather fond of the practice.

Unpopular opinion, but I would like HN mods to take action against comments like this.

Every time that this topic comes up, where the discussion is about the right and wrong of censorship, about finding a moral balance for safety and justice and expression, trolls like these jump in and give the "well it's not illegal so suck it" argument. It's tiresome, it's in bad faith, and it incites an emotional response from the reader.

I've only played a hundred or two games, but my answer is not really. You're in a race to get enough victory point cards before they poison your deck into impotence. An action combo uses more money and buys to get online than a handful of gold, and is more succecptible to be poisoned by green. Missing even one turn to a bad hand hurts a lot, in about half of my most recent games the winner was decided by turn order (they went first so they grabbed the last province on turn 14, when another player who only had 13 turns was ready to buy that province).

I'll second this suggestion. Most of my toy projects aren't in C, but every time I design software in C I learn something.

I get the feeling I'd disagree with what you're trying to say, but I legitimately can't understand your prose.

Thoughts on `git bundle`?

Is this the best OSS implementation of this? It looks like there's research in doing it better[0] but I can't find an open implementation.

> in the popular imagination, there was nothing except Greece, Rome and Egypt until this side of 1 AD.

Doesn't seem true to me; people seem aware of the Mayans and some of the stuff going on in Asia at the time (though generally not all).

len(arr) == 255 should be okay, 0..255 doesn't include the end index[0]. In the Rust playground[1] I see it only print up to 254.

TL;DR is TF executor parallelism is too pessimistic to fully exploit the parallelization opportunities in the problem space. Regent is built on top of Legion which is a cutting edge dataflow library, and is designed to provide the guarantees to achieve that speedup.

It appears to be just tall enough for the city buses that use that roadway. Lowering the clearance would impede the public transit.

When I see the same, I assume people don't want to comment based only on the title of the post, but don't feel ashamed to upvote for a title.

This reminds me of Gabe Newell's famous quote, "Piracy is a service problem." If you could buy your medicine illegally as easily as people pirate digital goods, you absolutely would.

I'm not sure that's the problem. I stayed in a mixed-use development in Southern California and the people who lived there straight up didn't visit any of the commercial space. I don't think mixed-use really works on a local scale without the crossover.

If the commercial space had even one store that people wanted, like a Trader Joes, it could have worked.

> To this day, I've heard CGroups being mentioned only once.

See https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/cgroup-v2.txt

> "cgroup" stands for "control group" and is never capitalized. The singular form is used to designate the whole feature and also as a qualifier as in "cgroup controllers". When explicitly referring to multiple individual control groups, the plural form "cgroups" is used.

To this day, I've heard cgroup mentioned only once...

To put forth a more substantive argument, everybody has a layer of abstraction they do not peek under. You interviewed people that didn't peek under container. You went a layer deeper, but never peeked at the source tree to learn what cgroup really is. Does it really feel that much better to be one level above others?

The introduction or author's foreword usually covers that in my experience. They'll say which chapters you can skip, and sometimes lay out a map of the key milestone chapters.

I recently spoke to someone in a big streaming company, and the biggest unexpected benefit has been increased datacenter efficiency. They usually size machines for the evening traffic peak, and the rest of the day are overprovisioned. Recently, traffic has been smeared over the whole day, so they're effectively serving those videos for free.

Would you share what you have in mind?

I (personally) would not page in the middle of the night for a temperature issue. The systems should be resilient enough to handle some cpu throttling. A non-transient issue like this would probably end up in a ticket queue.

Probably unpalatable to industry. Do you imagine ASUS would want their newest 2020 router to only be Wifi 2018?

>There is simply no easy way in any FP language that I know to capture such a simple mechanism as: "Reuse 90% of this piece of code but alter just this 10%".

Honest question: why does the Common Lisp Object System not do this for you?

Is this in California? I've noticed in California that food service workers (at any establishment) tend to be Hispanic. In Toronto, they tend to be Asian.

Since these companies are required to be race-blind when hiring, they are going to be a reflection of their local job markets.

There's nothing factually wrong with your opinion. I understand it and respect it. For me, I believe that platforms as massive and widespread as Facebook or Twitter distort the free-market ruleset, and that some amount of regulation is in fact healthy for the industry they participate in and society as a whole.

Once we get to take a look at the actual text, we'll be able to have rational, reasoned discussions about whether this particular regulation is healthy, or unhealthy.

That is a strawman argument. Re-read the article, this does NOT say everything is protected. Rather, it is clarifying what is protected and what is not.

This was the accepted scientific understanding circa 1900. Interestingly enough, this was used by early activists to argue that global warming is a real phenomenon. The logic went: since people indigenous to tropics cannot have advanced civilization, and Angkor Wat is clearly a product of advanced civilization, then Cambodia wasn't tropical when it was built.[0]

I agree. I was pursuing an SRE position at Google but their interview prep material was a lot of nitty-gritty "What does it mean when this syscall returns this integer?" questions that I didn't consider worth memorizing. In addition to the syscall questions, linux internals question, the bit of leetcode sprinkled in, there was also the practical exam of diagnosing a problem in a live system - I felt pretty confident in that however since it was my everyday for the last 3 years.

I switched tracks to the normal software engineer with only-leetcode interview questions. Spent 3 weeks studying and last week I went in and had an easy time because it was exactly what I studied for. Also applying to a few other dev shops was effortless because they asked the same stuff.

It's a halo product for their am4 platform. I've heard people recommend midrange Intel cpus over equivalent Amd parts because you could upgrade to a top-of-the-line cpu later on that platform, but you couldn't go higher on Ryzen.

In case you haven't realized you can buy comparable 1TB NVMe SSDs in today's market for around $100. I see the budget Intel 660p hit $80 for 1TB on sale, or high-end Phison E12 drives at $115 for 1TB on sale.

Thanks, I think I misread your original comment slightly. I appreciate your clarification.
