Scientific discovery is not driven by economics 101. Your dismissal of "excess supply" based on "margins" eliminates breakthrough contributions by profs that work for 20-30 years producing marginal research until one…
Not an apples-to-apples comparison. Take the K&R C book. It describes the language itself only - not the standard library. The Kotlin docs describe the language _plus_ parts of the Kotlin standard library which is why…
I'd like to know where that is because I've watched as a lot of major 3rd-party Java libraries switch to Gradle from Maven.
I get the sense that the only development environment the OP knows at all is Python. With that perspective I understand why they might think that error is cryptic.
The shortage of PCPs is a money problem, not a symptom of a broken model. People smart enough to go to med school are (generally) also smart enough to do an ROI analysis. If I can make $500k/yr as an oncologist and pay…
> it's just plainly more efficient to have dense population centers. Sure, if we put on blinders so we only look at economic effects. Socially I estimate the value of me not living too close to anyone else at somewhere…
To anyone. Take C++ vs. Rust, for instance. If I look at this from a business perspective: - Rust compiler can likely help confirm reference correctness, so this is a plus. - Rust language exchanges the cognitive load…
Let me educate you on what Wisconsin actually looks like since I grew up there. 50% of the population lives in Milwaukee, Green Bay, Madison, and Eau Claire. Those cities, respectively, are in the southeast, northeast,…
> it's currently 13°F in Dallas right now, so not really sure the point of calling out specific cities. it's winter. it gets cold in winter. things have problems working correctly in that cold of winter. Only in Texas…
> ...from a non-snowbelt area ... We've got a 2005 CR-V with 235K miles on it that will need to be retired due to rust in the next few years. Mechanically, it's still dead nuts reliable. I had a 2004 Honda Pilot that…
And yet somehow Google, Bing, etc. manage to return results in much less than 3 seconds.
You're doing it wrong. Like way wrong. Use jlink. It creates a double-clickable .exe from your JDK installation, pared down to a JRE for distribution. Works on Linux and Windows.
Well, capital loss carryover needs an inflation index in a bad way anyway. It was introduced into the tax code 45 years ago and it hasn't changed since. There was a proposal a year ago to bump it to $13,000 and index it…
I'm pretty sure the IRS has rules for appraisal of assets to prevent exactly this kind of thing from happening.
> I find it absurd that the government can take your home AT ALL after you have spent your whole life paying for it. They can, but IIRC the Supreme Court just ruled that they have to give you the proceeds from the sale…
Maybe on the planet Krypton where you live and everyone is like Superman you can get a steel front end to bend around you when it hits you, but here on earth hitting a person with that blunt front end is like taking a…
> That model doesn’t really work to fund higher education. The public won’t accept doubling or tripling their property tax. [citation needed] And I can give you a citation against. In my local municipality the tax base…
Having watched a close friend of my dad's sell at the bottom in 2007-2008 after he had retired, I understand your sentiment. However, before the advent of discount brokerages and widespread 401(k) plans investing really…
Apple Watch is probably < 1% of a market dominated by Garmin, Polar, and Suunto, so it doesn't make much financial sense to integrate with GymKit. Apple falls to Garmin in two areas: battery life and software. Sleep…
Which is stupid. If I shouldn't expect returns on my investments to beat inflation why would I bother investing in equities? By that metric I should put all of my money in TIPS and be done with it.
> making the degree easier to get You are confusing "easier to afford the degree" with "easier to learn and obtain the degree." The former does not imply the latter in any way, shape, or form.
Seriously disappointing that someone posting to HN can't be bothered to actually at least read the relevant Wikipedia article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicosis#Regulation_in_the_US TL;DR: it's already regulated…
It got popular because it's far easier to read and edit hierarchical and array data in YAML than it is in XML (or JSON). Most of the time I don't need a format with support for some esoteric charset or namespaces or any…
I'm married to an exec and I can tell you both that (a) The stress is very real, and (b) It's not self-created, it arises due to the responsibility and magnitude of decision-making coupled with having to deal with other…
At those prices in Milwaukee those houses are in neighborhoods where the houses are constantly robbed. They may be cheap but they certainly are not conducive to raising a growing young family.
