I think there is a big early adopter advantage of any dating platform. After a while, the platform just deteriorates and starts attracting opportunists.
I also know a bunch of couples that met on tinder, but it's all from 3 years ago. I haven't heard of someone else who has been successful in finding a long term relationship on Tinder since.
That's because quality people have all moved on to something else. Tinder is mainly for hookups now: people who are traveling and want something casual, people who are married and want a 3some, people who are cheating, etc.
Everyone else has moved on to a better dating site, like Bumble, CMB, OKC, etc.
My current girlfriend and I matched 2 years ago on Tinder. It was my 3rd attempt at trying it again after closing my account twice after no success. I changed my tactic, and paid for Tinder Gold / Plus and bought booster packs. I played their game and eventually they let me win.
I'm not familiar with this method, but NAMD and CHARM are a great way to inspect biological systems at greater resolution than experimental methods can measure. There was really cool work on fibrinogen about a decade ago showing how it provides elasticity.
They are still positional in Swift. color(r: 255, g: 255, b: 255) is not the same as color(b: 255, g: 255, r: 255). Also the parameter names are part of the method signature.
It's just standard HN policy to let people know it's not exactly new (but still interesting), and many people, myself included, sometimes miss publish dates. So anything that isn't this year gets the year in the title.
Interestingly, in the US, legal cannabis prices are usually more than double those on the black market because they’re taxed extremely heavily.
Granted, users of cannabis aren’t* usually as captive as those on opioids, but the issue remains that legality may not provide the price change desired.
>users of cannabis are usually as captive as those on opioids
Gonna need a source for that one, chief.
I can sleep off a weed craving, that’s telling your mind no more slight dopamine boost. Can’t really ignore your body the same way when it’s going through opioid withdrawals because all of your chemicals are out of whack.
> Xiaoning Sui, 48, of Surrey, British Columbia, Canada, was arrested in Spain on Monday night and charged in an indictment with conspiracy to commit mail fraud and honest services mail fraud.
> Prosecutors said in a statement they are trying to extradite her from Spain to Boston to face charges.
If she’s from Canada, why is she supposedly Chinese? There’s nothing Chinese in the article but her name.
"Xiaoning Sui - whom prosecutors identified as a 48-year-old “Chinese national” and a resident of Surrey in British Columbia, Canada - was arrested by Spanish authorities Monday night, according to the US attorney’s office in Massachusetts, which is seeking Sui’s extradition."
Her name is Xiaoning Sui, she had $400,000 in cash to wire around, the whole thing was setup through a translator, and her alleged primary residence is in Surrey, BC.
Rest assured, this person is a mainlander washing money in Canada.
I write template heavy code. I’ve recently refactored template instantiation across many object files. It’s faster, but a lot of work. It’d be great if I didn’t have to.
