If unicode is allowed, you can also use the Chinese characters

Off-topic but: is "Top" in this context a Dutchism? I only know it from Dutch people

They could, but why would they?

Perhaps you mean: a new incumbent could

> there is no way anyone would ever try reset a password for an account on an email address which they don't actually have access to.

I think you overestimate your less computer savvy fellow humans :) Also it could be phishing?

There's even one other selection bias at play here. This might well be one of the most productive days of them that we're reading about. Not their average output per se.

The journey is long compared to our lifespans, you could also try to change the latter to make space travel less impacting

If I interpret you correctly you've switched to Rust and then after a while disliked it?

Would be very interesting to hear your experience. Most of these articles like OP, come off exactly what you say: just switched, and now a big fan.

How long ago did you change, and what kind if software are you working on?

Funnily most digital audio is never fully silent for a different reason. Noise is added for the least significant bit, because otherwise you can hear artifacts (deemed less attractive than noise) on silent parts that are close to the threshold of the bitdepth.

If I understand your solution correctly this puts the risk on the buyer?

ie I naively buy a domain for a too high price, and then the registrar revokes the domain? The seller ends up with the money, and I end up with nothing? A smart seller could possibly even snatch back the domain from the registrar?

I'd translate it as ten before half five, but apart from that, yeah that's 4:20 (inclusive or 16:20).

I think in the UK they use half five as 5:30? Half past five basically. In NL it's half way towards five, maybe the Dutch are forward looking?

I'd say that listening to your own instrument with latency does not work at all. Making good tone/timbre/pitch etc all depend on a very short feedback loop between hands/ears/brain.

edit: replace hands with whatever is needed to produce the sound: vocal chords, mouth, feet, arm, ...

Shouldn't you do it before marriage? That also gives you a third possible outcome

* you find out beforehand your ideas about what's fair don't overlap enough to even start.

that part is normally just silently implied...

At the risk of being nitpicky:

Updating tools in your environment/workflow is exactly a thing that can lose a lot of time, often for not much gain[1]. One way to become very productive is to know your tools very well, and that would extend to not changing them often.

[1] not much gain in productivity, but perhaps in security, compatibility, etc

One thing Notion has going for it is: it's quite easy to backup all notes, with a single click you can request a zip of everything in readable form. I do this monthly, but you could do it more often obviously.

This is something Evernote has broken lately, there no way (I know of) to backup everything at once there, and I fear that every VC-backed app will sooner or later see that as a way to improve lock-in....

Perhaps it depends on your frame of reference. For me speed is still a detracting factor. I'm using the mac standalone app, just clicked around a bit, and many pages (with nothing more than 1 page of text) still get a loading spinner. Typing 3 letters in search also takes ~1s to see the first result.

I suspect actually this is the same issue as the offline thing: every interaction has networking.

I do agree that C++ is a very big and complicated (and ugly) language, and because they value backwards compatibilty the only way it can go is even more complicated, because the cannot strip out stuff.

But you last question can be answered in a couple of directions: 1. you don't HAVE to use C++, if there's another language easier, or better suited to your goals, use that. I think as long as C++ is the best choice for some domains it will stay relevant. 2. you don't HAVE to know/use all features of C++. If you're working solo just ignore the parts you want. If you're in a big team hopefully the codebase is such that you don't need to know everything about it to be productive. 3. Is adding features worth it? Well if you take 1 & 2 in to account, I think the downsides are capped a bit, and the upside is: more options. But of course whether you prefer many options with a lot of complexity, or a straightforward language is subjective.

Isn't "Rail subsidies per passenger km (in euro-cents)" a bit of a strange metric? If the UK would half the amount of passengers, this metric would double, but it would definitely not be an improvement I'd say?

You could also take that as a signal it's not a good market to be in?

Depending on how easy it is to find customers, and your goals/options regarding to scale of course.

A big difference being that in your case Kanye had no specific stake either way. The parallel would be if Taylor Swift would've said: Beyonce's video is better, and the VMAs would've said: actually you're right, please hand back the award.

A gameboy emulator might be a good start, there's quite a lot written about it, and many have done it before.

I'd guess: because it's easy and it works, and it is far from the most important thing to work on?

Yup, there's a lot more bootstrappers who think the opposite: "why bust my ass doing 20jobs at once trying to get a business going when I could just show up and do plumbing and earn 10x more at FAANG."

Facebook as a company has long passed the point where it's just a platform to share updates with your friends.

Re indoor wallclimbing: I don't have any natural cliffs near me (I think the closest thing would be abandoned quarries at >2hrs driving) and I think that holds for many people.

A quick way to teach users never to click that button again, I'd say.

I just had to double check because of your last sentence, but we're not at the point yet that 10-50million is a small town in china: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cities_in_China_by_pop... here we have 6 cities over 10m.

A little too good even [1], they were deranked for some time...

I wouldn't say the existence of this page proves your prediction right (as it's not dethroning Google anytime soon).

It's easy to forget that the goal of Google isn't to provide a useful search engine (at least not anymore), but the search engine is a by product of them wanting to show ads.
