I'm wondering how plumbing & grey/black water could possibly withstand inches of shear or compression stress without bursting leaks, let alone feet.

It's an icon, like the most popular save icon depicts a dead format https://www.google.com/search?q=save+icon

Somewhat. In both cases, females were able to self-reproduce. In the film, females switched to male to fertilize. In the condors case, eggs developed without fertilization from males who were available.

Might also need the reverse of this, HN dressed up as a job search site. For when your parents keep nagging you to look for a job, but you just want to browse HN.

"Spun" is a little harsh. It's not easy to say concisely and the shorter version wouldn't capture significantly more audience that the longer version (IMO).

"New carnivorous attribute of known plant discovered in Pacific Northwest", perhaps?

What was the cause of duress? Undertow? Fatigue? Inexperienced swimmer?

It's good to see counter viewpoints but share what you or others would be looking for instead.

"This sucks" isn't helpful.

"This part sucks but would be awesome if it {did this}" is.

No belief is required; the source is available.

Open your network tab and watch for traffic if you want. Or turn off wifi after loading.

Heh, just found out there's one for numbers https://thisnumberdoesnotexist.com/

Agree, wish MS ecosystem had more support. Looks like it was given some thought though:

"As an Autobot, should I buy life insurance or car insurance?"

> we’re all terrified of having a gap in our resume

I took a 1 year break and have had to answer a simple recruiter/interview inquiry regarding it for the next 5 years. I don't think it ever eliminated me from consideration but it was more like a necessary precaution. Not so great answers would include:

* Anything beginning with "uh uh uh". Answer confidently.

* "I was searching for work the whole time and just couldn't pass interviews"

* criminal activity

* anything indicating a bad work ethic or difficult employee

* apathy, indifference, numb, lazy. Even if you felt that way the whole time, LIE. You took a year off, you want to look like you had an undying passion for something every day even a hobby.

> It seems useless for a link to point to itself

Hm. I guess the web has programmed me differently. Say I'm CTRL-F searching through the page and I notice an interesting bit of code and say "Hey I have a question about this". Then I start looking for a shortcut to that one file and assume that shortcut is the nearby <h3> header. I expect this because I've seen this pattern implemented a lot. You could have the <h3> be that local anchor and a short [top] link next to it.

Ok ok I see it in e.g., https://nn-512.com/browse/NN-512#64.

The anchor tags for the listings go to top instead of being self-referencing. Is that a bug?

Like

    format = `<h3 id="%d"><a href="#0">%s</a></h3>` +

Should be

    format = `<h3 id="%d"><a href="#%d">%s</a></h3>` +

And Fprintf should duplicate a parameter?

Off topic: this NN-512 site has good UX for having no CSS/JS (I know, many of you would claim it's because those are omitted...). Did you use some kind of site generator?

Like the featured article, HN threads - then and now - are pretty low-key in regards to participant introductions. Usernames are just text, no flair or qualifiers so the focus is on the speaker's content itself. `libria` is free to converse with `cperciva` as an equal peer which is nice, because most other IRL forums I'd be acutely aware that's not the case ;)

> Not fired, just reassigned.

I don't even get how that's gonna work. Inevitably, he'll work alongside/under/oversee Jewish colleagues. That'll be an awkward Hangouts meeting. "Oh hey there's the guy that thinks I'm violent, I wonder if he'll judge my work/team interaction impartially..."

I think he's referring to tenure, blue -> 0-5 yrs FTE, orange 5-10 yrs FTE

I'm not sure they feel ashamed or should; USD 0.7 billion solves a lot of problems for the owners/employees.

What was your offer?

Sounds more like an International Wishlist. Wherever the venn diagram of What a Country Does and What the World Wants intersects, they pat themselves on the back. Everything else, they shrug. I wonder what's the point.

If you haven't had any messages sent to you from Future fnord77, suffice it to say we won't have figured out how to do that in our lifetime.

We went through this when people first started calling quadcopters "drones".

It's just a term used to describe a server configuration that has different billing/operational characteristics than traditional always-on.

And like the quadcopter-drone, I hope everyone losing their shit over this can either accept "serverless" or submit and market a new term that conveys this difference soon.

Looking at the 2020 stats, customers were plucking 6 iPhones per second so only 1 every 7 seconds would be a disastrous year for Apple.

Apparently it postdates UML too: there's a sequence diagram tool trending on the front page right now[1].

Yeah, obvious clickbait. An animal is venomous, the venom is toxic (a toxin). I wouldn't call a cobra "toxic" unless it was constantly starting flamewars on Facebook.

If any person were to bite you. I'm not aware of data that suggests significant variance in mouth bacteria among impoverished vs affluent, i.e. if Bezos were to bite me right now, I'd still go to the ER. Anyway, I'd guess biting is more common among preschoolers than homeless people.

> In many cases, it is unnecessary and only makes the speaker look foolish.

Comedic skits touch on this [1][2] and though a caricature, I think they capture the gist of how it's perceived when attempted.

I think it stems from a desire for "cultural wokeness" which is a good thing and has its place, but as you say when communication is the goal, speak the language of the receiver.

Off topic, but I'm curious. Say a human empties a pee bottle on a public sewer drain and a dog pees on that same drain. I don't see much difference except one of them urinated in public. Chemically they're the same, but I'm more repulsed by the human waste, why is that?

And even for those "dinosaurs" that are persnickety about control, Outposts allows them to house the rack onsite while still being managed by the AWS console. On on-premise cloud, if you will.

Underwriters would be well aware of that so what this really means is that loans would only be given to students least likely to do this, which could amount to very few.
