Same as every online service. There's always admins (even on Twitter of course) who can read the DMs (unless you have proper end-to-end encryption). FYI: especially now that Elon Musk owns Twitter.. And fired everyone who is not loyal.

Yes of course! What I'm saying is that neither is better in all contexts. There's a lot of nuance.

Optimism and Pessimism are viewed very differently in different Countries (Germany vs USA) and even Regions (Silicon Valley vs idk Utah). Apart from that I think the article is mostly wrong. To make progress you need agency and self-confide

As a warning to my fellow HNers, my spider senses tingled when I clicked one of the links, so I researched a bit and found this: https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Leo_Gura and https://www.inputmag.com/cultu

This is a useful site for me. Though not (only) because of the intended usage, but because of having a list of websites and services by topic curated by the developer community (who else adds a website by pull request?)

I want to reply here as well: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3964149/ The study you mentioned shows that mindfulness is overall as effective as the (best?) known other treatment options. If you

But that literally is mindfulness. It is not a magic technique... Simply reflecting on your thoughts (and/or feelings) is basically the definition of mindfulness. PS: It is sad that this marketing/self-help-book/guru/tra

I just looked up the study with positive control you mentioned. Are you deliberately portraying the study in a false light? https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3964149/ The study literally says: &quo

I looked into the source code, it uses /proc/net/ip_tables_names to find the tables And that tbh doesn't seem very reliable, see what happened on a laptop which does not use iptables: $ cat /proc/net/i

Are you sure you are creating additional tables and not chains? See for example: https://askubuntu.com/a/316993 The post further down there says that additional tables can only be created via the kernel, so if you'

Allow me to ask the question why "Pay Compression" is considered a bad thing? Does it make the world more just? Are you really working a hundred times harder than the people who pick up your trash?

You are right, that example doesn't work. I thought the rounding and normalization described in the standard may fix all these cases by itself but there I was wrong. But at least all problems that could happen on a financial applicatio

But in decimal floating point this is also solved: 1/7 + 2/7 = 3/7 Please research decimal floating point first..

Imagine a contract which says the contract partner receives e.g. 0.001% of the total revenue for the fiscal year (which could be 10bn Euros) Or you do have a gram price and are selling literally thousands of tons to a big business

I absolutely disagree with your disagreement. Please try writing an ERP system where you have a quantity of a billionth of an item price of a billion euros (or an item price of a billionth Euro and a quantity of billions) and tell me which

For people using C or C++ I can recommend using decimal floating point (which may be added to C++20 in the standard). Contrary to the "default" floating point, which are base 2 and do not support precise presentations of certain n

Well.. C and C++ offer a wide variety of arithmetic types. Double precision is not required by the standards (except by the optional annex F of C99, covering IEEE 754 arithmetic), but on most systems, the double type corresponds

Should every node's value be printed out exactly once and if so, are there nodes which have two parents? If so, I would keep the pointers in a set to mark nodes as processed but is there a more elegant solution?

Yes but in the long-term this screwed you hard. If you ever stole e.g. a diamond from one trader you could no longer sell that trader diamonds. Even after years and dozens of looted diamonds you still couldn't sell diamonds there.
