They do show me “how satisfied are you with claude code today?” regularly, which can be seen as a hint. I did opt out of helping to improve claude after all.

14, if you're with a parent / old enough sibling / legal guardian, and they consent to it.
Wow. I didn’t know about this.

wild you will be able to drink alcohol before you can have a YouTube account.
You need to be 16 to drink beer or wine, so you will be able to do both at the same age.

It is my impression that topics like this one trend up more often today, then they used to a couple of years ago. I guess hacker news is changing over time.
letier commented on Munich's surfers left stunned after famed river wave vanishes theguardian.com/world/202... · Posted by u/c420
Watching surfers in the middle of this park was one of my favorite things to do in Munich. What a bummer. I'd be surprised if they had any luck at all restoring it.
I know it’s a technicality, but the wave is at the very beginning of the park. Not the middle. I can very much recommend walking at least until the lake, if you happen to be visiting Munich. That would be about 1 third of the park.

Take pretty much any quality of life thing. Just as one example
Mississippi: The average home size 2,065 square feet
United Kingdom: The average home size is 818 square feet
No, you cannot "eat GDP", but its a useful proxy as it correlates very highly to a lot of things we do care about
I wonder how it interacts with life expectancy.
There is a huge difference between Mississippi and the UK: 78.6 years for males and 82.6 years for females in the UK in 2020 to 2022. 68.6 years for males and 75.2 years for females in Mississippi in 2020 and 67.7 years for makes and 74.3 years for females in Mississippi in 2021. Might go up a bit if you have 2022 numbers, but the difference is huge.
For our particular project you only need to install Nix and then run nix develop, but I'd indeed recommend to use direnv. For me it's not an issue, since I run NixOS on development VMs, but a colleague who was not using Nix before (I think) also wrote a bash script to set up an AWS VM with the NixOS AMI and then rolls out a minimal NixOS configuration.
I think for people who don't want to dive into Nix much, doing an imperative install (nix profile install) of the necessary packages is also fine. You could even make your own small meta-package that depends on everything that is needed. Then they could do a nix profile install yourflake#yourmetapackage and have all the tools they need. But I agree direnv is a bit harder, since you'll have to put something in the shell rc/profile.
The imperative install is as many lines of code as the flake itself. That’s what’s bothering me. But a meta package would be a step in the right direction.
Thank you!
In my experience Nix is a force multiplier. But you need someone on the team who has plenty of Nix experience, because you inevitably need to write your own derivations and smoothen over issues that you might encounter in nixpkgs.
We use Nix with Cachix in the team I currently work in. We use a lot of ML packages/kernels, which are nearly impossible to manage in Python venvs (long build times because we have to patch some dependencies, version incompatibilities, etc.). Now you can set up a development environment in seconds. The nicest thing is when we switch between branches we automatically have the state of the world needed for that branch (direnv yay).
It was some work to set up, but it saves so much time now.
How do you do the initial setup? I'm concerned with anything that happens before activating the dev shell.
Right now I wrote a bash script to check for nix, direnv, git, gpg, etc. But it feels a bit clumsy, compared to the flake that contains the dev shell.
For my own system I set up home manager. But I don't want to make the use of home manager a requirement, as it can be quite opinionated. (e.g. setting up direnv will be done by generating a .zshrc, which can be limiting to some)
I actually have a Taula 2 and a Xone 92 at home. I prefer the Taula 2, due to the simplicity and the fact that it has an isolator. The Xone 92 has a four band IQ and a filter, which I like a lot, but I have the impression that all the bells and whistles take a toll on the quality. At least in a home listening setup.
Anyways, it’s not the knobs that make the sound…
