FWIW "JoyCon 2" is mentioned multiple times and is the recommended buy with a direct link to Amazon on the page.

Bingo. This is the one most people don't know about.

Strange position to take. Python and Go are both duck typed but given Go has compile time type checking it is providing another layer of safety. Could you add more detail supporting your stance?

I expressed that poorly. I'm saying Go adds a weak type system. Too weak for its own good. No sum types is the first dealbreaker. Even C had unions.

sqlc is pretty darn great but it's no comparison to Django. Django has its own problems and I would love for it to take some lessons from sqlc.

Really hate we don't have proper type hints for Django.

Is django the best backend batteries included framework at the moment?

For the ORM/schema evolution part at least imo. And iommi is written for it so that is also a big boost (I'm one of the authors of iommi :P)

On safari mobile it's a page with the title header and a footer. Theres no content rendering.

Checking, thanks. EDIT: works very well on my iPhone, so without being able to reproduce is not easy to fix.

Same here, I need to turn off content blockers for the article content to load.

I should probably remove the Adsense JS which I don't use anyway...

Oh shoot. Sorry I didn't even think about having a content blocker running on my phone. Sorry for the distraction.

Because the page lazy-loads comments that link doesn't work either.

Full text of the comment from migrated 9/11/2020, 1:38:27 PM:

I saw the same Reddit post and decided to investigate. I skimmed MCP 1.12 because I still have it lying around and that version is affected.

In what it calls EntityBoat’s updateFallState, if the boat’s status is not ON_LAND, fall damage is nullified. That will be the case when falling from most heights, because the last time the boat’s status was updated was before it hit the ground. There is only a small exception because the boat checks blocks up to a thousandth of a block below it when updating its status. If it ends up just barely above the ground, its status becomes ON_LAND before hitting the ground, allowing fall damage to take effect.

This happens at the given heights because gravity subtracts 0.04F from the boat’s Y velocity. If it were exactly 0.04, the boat would have fallen an integral number of blocks every 2 ticks out of 25: 12, 13; 49, 51; 111, 114; 198, 202; and so on. The boat ends up falling very slightly less than that because 0.04F is rounded down as a 32-bit float, placing it just above the ground and allowing it to become ON_LAND before hitting it.

The title is "Stigma is a tax on every operational decision"

Thank you for pointing that out! But since HN allows any title, I chose the one that best suits the HN audience.

"Otherwise please use the original title, unless it is misleading or linkbait; don't editorialize."

ipython saved me this week when it color coded

  b'\x100'

Which was not obvious to me in the print output that it is \x10 and a literal 0.

Money, of course. Both greed and comfort.

And existing obligations. Most people I know, myself including, stretch our current situation as the paycheque grows.

Some of it is intentional. A lot of it is slow creep (“ah, I can afford a, b, c now..that Maserati/Porche Cayenne GTS/Urus-lol I’ve always wanted!”). While you’re doing this, your spouse and kids are doing it 2x - “oh dad got that fancy new car! I guess I can ask him for the special edition Jordans now..”). Out of guilt, you let your family join in on the buying frenzy.

Now you’ve landed yourself with new loans and obligations (more expensive car = higher maintenance cost, same with house, etc - higher expectation all around, keeping up with Joneses, charity events, …).

Getting out of all that is much more difficult than overcoming your own greed and discomfort - many are legal obligations and you basically need a multi-year plan to go back unscathed (assuming you and your family are pragmatic enough to readjust your comfort level). For some it can be leaving useful social obligations - you lose your social circle if you downgrade (may have to move further away, no more club or association memberships).

The only real remedy is to not let your expenditure go up when you get a raise. But it’s less about you and in equal measure about how your partner operates, kids, family, their expectations etc. All in all, odds are not in an average Meta employees favour no matter what they might personally think/feel.

I think it can be radically more pedestrian than this. Just affording basic life in a high COL area is insane. Getting an apt in NY and paying for childcare for two kids can already be a 16k/mo endeavor, no porche entering the equation.

Can add any detail to "sell you out"? Was it explicit violation of expected privacy of the conversation?

Active conspiracy with opposing counsel to drag it out, avoid obvious resolutions, etc.

Extremely common with divorce attorneys - and labor law.

That sounds actionable if your lawyer (that you're paying) isn't actually working for you.

Wait until you talk to the state Bar. That is when the real fuckery starts.

Good luck getting a lawyer to sue another lawyer either.

Do you have proof or at least some evidence?

.... I'm not the person you're asking but I can give curious anecdata on a home purchase....

When I bought my home, I had a purchase agreement that said 'I will pay up to 1500$ cash if the property assesses for less than X' (X being the amount I told the realtor I was willing to pay.)

And the property happened to assess EXACTLY for X.

Collusion in markets is nothing new, and even when we regulate people find ways around it.

It is very telling especially in light of the Palantir manifesto, that all of this technology is being applied against individuals instead of towards ensuring business compliance.

Hmmm. Property purchase agreements are rather different in your neck of the woods than mine!

Here (UK) we do have a bit of variety, thanks to devolution and bloody mindedness. I'm talking about English here (possibly Welsh too), rather than British (England + Wales + Scotland) or even UK (England + Wales + Northern Ireland). Wales is actually a bit more complicated than that but let's keep it simple.

Here (England), you advertise a house price and invite buyers. You generally engage one or more estate agents (realtors) I think it is called an "invitation to treat" in legal terms.

... negotiations ...

Once a price is "agreed", contracts are drawn up by both sides and "exchanged". When the exchanged contracts are both accepted, then the contract is binding on both sides. Basically: the Buyer will Buy and the Seller will Sell etc.

I think the US is fairly similar in that you do have to agree to something before it becomes a binding agreement.

Of course. They really didn’t like that.
