I really liked walking under the viaduct. It was shelter from the weather. It just seemed really nice under there. I even thought it was sort of attractive. Seattle needs to add a great big awning that has as much character as the viaduct h

Pre-tax I suppose, but it hardly matters. The local and state tax is only a 6.5% sales tax, excluding food. The only income tax is federal, which is approximately nothing for people at that income who have children.

"reasonable" is relative to what you get, and nothing in that area is reasonable. In no way is $1400 to $1900 per month reasonable for just a room. For that price you ought to get a 1500 to 2200 sq ft detached 3-bedroom or 4-bedro

You picked the wrong Melbourne. The one in Florida is a far better deal. Median household income is $40,000, and the median house is just $150,000. The house is 3.75 times the income. Of course, it is even lower for the typical people here

The study applies to "a third of individuals in solitary confinement". I guess those were the extroverts. What about the other two thirds of individuals in solitary confinement? It seems likely that those people don't support

Anything other than solitary is torture. Exposure to other criminals is cruel. Having a cellmate who could kill you in your sleep is especially shocking; sleep deprivation is unquestionably torture.

The title/registration stuff does in fact say "bus", but I wouldn't call it that. It's just an extended body van. I get mildly accusatory questions when registering it for non-commercial use and when I go places tha

I can say from experience that vehicle selection goes down much more once you need to expand to a fifth row. There were just two choices, one from Ford and one from GM. Fitting three car seats across is still difficult, despite enough car w

If you're having this issue, I recommend the Fiat 500L. It works for my 6'9" son, with room to wear a hat.

Clearly that is wrong. There is no income tax. The sales tax is 6% to the state, and counties can increase it for their own purposes, up to a maximum of 8%. The average is 6.65%. At certain times in summer, school supplies and hurricane sup

Oddly, that article doesn't link to the most interesting modern use. It's for security exploits. People have built compilers that output a binary that consists largely of return addresses that point into the middle of normal funct

Not what you want to hear about a version control system: "Python is a dynamic language and there are tons of invariants that aren't caught at compile time and can only be discovered at run time. These invariants cannot all be det

Something odd happened there. I also graduated in '99 and, with a BS CS degree, pretty much did computer engineering. In just two years I paid off my loans, paid off my wife's loans (she didn't work), and bought a somewhat fa

That is the case here to some extent. Projects have been done in rust, but "rust programmer" isn't what we seek. Jumping into rust for our major projects doesn't make sense. Existing code is largely C, with some assembly

I would say so. It works. Partners working is not always a profitable endeavor. People often forget to include housing costs in the calculation. If you are forced to live in a large city, your costs go up.

I have twelve kids just 0.9 miles from the office. Between home and office I pass houses on 0.25 acre lots that go for about $250,000. That is paying a premium to be by the ocean. Just a few miles away, where there are more jobs, similar ho

How do you get a macro to make an L-value out of a bitfield? That is, it goes on the left of an assignment. I'm doing stuff like this: ethdev->phy.foo = val; // foo is a bitfield in struct phy cpu->status.irqlevel = ne

They are very common and useful for emulators. They are indeed trouble for super-portable interfaces. They also tempt some people into trouble with hardware drivers, but then that would already be trouble anyway due to instruction reorderin

SHARC has no such requirement. Having char and int the same size was not universal. The CPU vendor shipped such a compiler, but that was not the only compiler. The CPU itself used 32-bit addresses to access machine words, the size of which

There are affordable houses ($172K to $306K) near my workplace that are close enough that you could commute by pogo stick or pole vault. I'm farther away, at unicycle distance.

Probably most of us here on Hacker News already have it. I certainly do. No, not every job provides this. Also, not every job provides health coverage and unlimited snacks.

Nope. My father-in-law met the Tsarnaev brothers. They were out shopping for electric switches. My father-in-law worked in an electric supply store that didn't stock the right type of switch, so he directed them to a store that would h

I find it hard to imagine that. How do they stay in business? At my supermarket, I have never observed proper going-out-the-door shoplifting. I am still able to get offended when somebody eats a grape that they haven't purchased. I&#x2

If acceptance is below 100%, people are being denied spots. If students are constantly getting waitlisted, that is even worse, with an unfulfilled promise amounting to denial. UCF is a convenient example for me: UCF is informally known as &

It's no longer likely at all, but some years ago my workplace nearly open sourced a serious tool. That would have been big news, with the sudden availability of source for a tool that does rr-like stuff. Some other company could do it.

Nah, rr is not state of the art. :-) About a dozen years ago my workplace built something like that in-house. I see you've made progress. You have the reverse dataflow. You can't debug an arbitrary firmware or bootloader or OS how

You're a beginner. I have 6 kids under the age of 10, and another 6 aged 10 and older. Not kidding: only 1.2 dekachildren. You have some catching up to do.
