Small dogs can do OK in your typical suburban block. (Block as in land for single dwelling). They need walks though yes.
Re:Why choose async/await over threads? on Monday March 25, 2024 @01:49AM (#39813138)
What is the language agnostic answer to the same question?

I imagine something to do with memory usage or avoiding thread or thread pool starvation issues. Maybe performance too?

What if I am dead?
At a FAANG. Depends if you can jump the requisite hoops and also stick it out.
My memory is rubbish generally except I can draw the floorplan of anywhere I have lived or stayed. But directions, conversations, dates, forget it!

Chairs would have a tail hole. Just imagine having to sleep and roll over with arms in the way!

Re:Ask HN: If the singularity is nigh, why be frugal? on Sunday March 24, 2024 @02:18AM (#39805432)
It is not an either or. Best thing average jo can do is auto set up to overpay their tax efficient retirement vehicle, make sure said vehicle is an index of US share or perhaps an international mix with a decent US weight, and buy a residence somewhere there is and probably will be high demand. So NYC, London etc. (due diligence assumed)

With that you can spend all you earn, you will be forced to save a bit naturally due to mortgage repayments and the retirement setup and you have diverse investments.

Once you gave equity you can borrow to invest more.

If you get any bonusy kind of money like RSU then invest that as you go along unless you need it to create more cushion for your mortgage.

The moral: even if you are smart as Einstein you are still an employee and need to do employee things.

There are almost no programmers today (you need to do malloc and low level sys calls in C to be considered a programmer).

Those efficiency increases - aren’t they affected by supply chain shocks, covid, limits on natural resources etc.?

It isn’t necessarily a bug. You have do to a lot if digging and discussion before you establish that.
It is sewerage all the way down.
Sounds like you had FU money or can easily get into another job quickly.

Also make sure to register an Anguilla domain name rather than the .network tld, or god forbid British Indian Ocean Teritory. How early 2010s!

Non mainstream Reddit is still great. city specific subs for example and some programming subs.

Not sure if it was you but I have seen such encrypted comments before.
