Exactly. This "group" is run by one person and an above comment claims it's one of the most reputable tech organizations. I think not since I've never heard of them and I've read tech news daily for the last two decades. I can't think of why someone would try to tell a techie that a certain unknown tech org is reputable unless they were advertising for it.
Cool! Thanks for sharing this I’ll check it out :)
If I remember correctly, Eric Schmidt said that one of the first things he did as CEO of Google was to move the company off of Quickbooks and onto Oracle ERP. SAP HANA is certified for AWS, Azure, and GCP and all three are trying to win SAP customers as they transition their OnPrem systems to the cloud. Oracle has long had an antagonistic relationship with its partners; I suspect this move is a strategic alignment with SAP as a key Google partner. The enemy of my enemy... probably plays a part too.

You should pay it forward. It worked for you, help make it work for someone else.
For me, its all about the commute. Just do the math.

1-Hour commute time both ways: 21.8 Days a year you are spending commuting to/from work.

3-fucking-weeks of time, poof, gone.

I'll get my social interaction else where for 3 weeks of my life back. Thanks.
I'm just fine with KiCAD itself, my real difficulty with it comes from importing component footprints and symbols. In most of the other eCAD packages, you can click a button, type a part number and download the symbol/footprint in-app.

In KiCAD, I haven't found any easy way to go about it, you always have to download a ZIP file, extract it, point KiCAD to the new symbol library, point KiCAD to the new footprints and match the footprints to the symbols.

Is there any better way of handling this?
McDonalds employs fewer people but now we have jobs making and maintaining that automation and those jobs pay an awful lot better than do-you-want-fries-with-that. I don't believe taxing automation is a good thing in the long run.
Since you'll be working w/ Google APIs, you'll likely want to go with Google App Engine to deploy your app, and their SDK is available in Java or Python, so I'd recommend Python.

Just my $0.02
I agree it's a great idea for scientists to write, and to do it regularly, and for a variety of audiences. But for the most part I don't think a blog is the right medium.

Blogs just create a huge obligation to update them regularly whether you have something to say or not. They encourage you to bury your the few good things you have to say under a mountain of regularly-updated rubbish. The internet is filled with blogs updated a few times and then abandoned... heck, I think I have a few myself.
So in order to pay off our debt + interest, we have to hike up our taxes (or print dollars) to keep up, thereby suppressing innovation.

Well.. no.

You wouldn't know it from the current political dialog, but deficit budgets aren't uncommon.

The most common way to get rid of them isn't to raise taxes or print money - instead it's to grow the economy(!) The increased tax base leads to increased tax receipts which pays the deficit.

(This isn't an argument for cutting tax, though - especially the way most tax cuts are structured at the moment. They are - IMHO - stupid policy on both economic and social grounds)
Looks interesting. Since the README is minimal, some questions:

Is the intent to use the same format as, or otherwise interoperate with, org-mode for emacs?

Also, worth comparing with vimoutliner? (http://vimoutliner.org)
If you're on OS X, you can get ssh-copy-id through homebrew. (And if you're on OS X and not using homebrew, go install it now: https://github.com/mxcl/homebrew )
What about sites and keywords in other languages? This would be useful to us if it somehow didnt put a lot of english keywords together with the italian ones
This is particularly relevant given that Facebook announced recently that starting in January they were going to force businesses relying on earned social traffic to pay to reach those same people. They had already been tightening the screws on organic traffic for a while now, and will finally be shutting it off for any sort of promotional or low-quality content post.

I'm really curious to see what that does to publishing businesses like this that don't promote "businessey" things like "SALE SALE SALE!" or product-specific stuff.

Ultimately, I'm guessing many of these companies will pay the ransom as long as it is profitable, and make their best effort to get people into a channel they control that has fixed pricing (like email). Guessing they will likely start shifting to other social networks as well.
I guess the success of "hacker news" is largely due to:

1. the name "hacker news" is a cool name
2. simple hacker-friendly web interface w/o ads.
Yeah, I agree that this woman made some pretty stupid decisions, I mean I wouldn't exactly get a home loan to buy a house unless I knew I would be able to pay it off! The difference though is that you probably wouldn't enter into a home loan situation unless you already had a job -- going to university is supposed to be the groundwork to get you a job. There's a much higher uncertainty there, so much bigger risk. But I mean I always think it's a good idea to have a backup plan -- I did a major in computer science too, and worked in industry as a programmer, and though I'm pretty poor (out of practice) at it and don't particularly enjoy it, I can always do it if I "get stuck". :)
More like this:

def f():
x = 1
def g():
x = 2 # creates new local variable x
# no way to assign new value to x in enclosing scope!
I use Linux as my primary OS, I would use uTorrent if it were available for Linux, and I did not vote in this poll.

That said, though, you're probably right. Internet polls are easily manipulated by e.g. social news sites with dedicated target audiences.
I assume it's $1600/year that you'd be paying back :) That's still not bad (I finished uni in 2003 and the Howard government was busy killing VSU and pushing the fees up at the time). Also, I believe it's tiered depending on what sort of degree you are studying too? So if you do arts or nursing or something that's either desperately wanted or not very "useful", it's a lot cheaper than if you do medicine or vet science.
There are still private trackers around disallowing transmission (heck - every client but uTorrent), so this might be a valid reason to go with a future utorrent for Linux release.

OTOH, these same trackers are insisting on utorrent for windows anyways and are also disallowing utorrent for the Mac, so my point might be moot
I've been using rtorrent on my Linux box and have been reasonably happy with it.
This is a ridiculous post. Those are little kids just having a fun innocent time in a kiddy pool. Even if there are little girls there, who cares?
While I think that subsidizing student loans is probably a good thing for the government to do in order to help create a more educated and hopefully more productive populance, I think that schools should be forced to publish stats on how much students make by major 1,2,5, and 10 years postgraduation. I think it would be eye opening. I also think that many universities are essentially in the business of selling defective products, if you consider (as I think the vast majority of people do) the point of college to be job training. I have friends who've gotten degrees in eg environmental studies and the university did not go out of their way to make clear how difficult it would be to get a job.
> circumspect about the value of the degrees they issue

Students are not so naive as to not realize how much their education will be worth when they exit. It is (or was in 2006 at my school) a topic of constant discussion among undergrads. But that knowledge is for some reason not connected with action . . . maybe because these "adults" have never been responsible for or on the hook for anything in their entire lives leading up to this decision.

(Interestingly, I went to the same school as you.)
Horizontal rules are a fun element to play with. On my website, I wrote a Pandoc compile pass to count rules inside a document and number them modulo 3, so they cycle: stars / moon / sun https://www.gwern.net/Lorem#horizontal-rulers Each ruler gets a class for being a 1th, 2th, or 3th ruler. (You can't do this in pure CSS easily because the rulers could be nested at any depth so the usual :nth counters don't work. You could do it in JS, of course, but I try to minimize use of that.)

Why? Because the icons are really nice-looking, especially in dark mode, compared to a boring line, and I felt the astronomical touch added some class, combined with the moons in the footer.
Many of the offenses are in that category. My concern is the offenses like "violent extremism" and "membership in a known hate group", which are not generally illegal and very easy to abuse for censorious purposes. (I've seen quite a few people identify mainstream organizations as "hate groups" because of some political dispute.)
A framework to do... What? Is this another view layer?

"Framework" actually has a meaning beyond "JS library". I'd normally not make this complaint, but the entire home page only tells me what it isn't and some traits it doesn't have, aside from the hint it does weird things to CSS. (I tried to look at the tutorial, but it was a mess on my tablet.) It doesn't tell me why I might actually want to use it. After all, there's no library so concise that it wins the LOC comparison against not including it in a project.
Apparently they couldn't be bothered to provide an AppCDS archive in modern JVM to go alongside InteliJ.
For all the effects, having had COVID-19 means about 1-2% higher chance of each of the disorders they were looking at, except for one that was like 5%. IOW, sure, about a third of COVID-19 survivors have some conditions in the following 6 months, but so do Influenza and other respiratory disease survivors.
"Corporations are people too, my friend."
You should know about Machiavelli so you can understand how misunderstood he is in pop-culture.
Because a company is a group of real people making decisions together. There is no “legal fiction” deciding to not associate with certain others.
I think grandpa of my girlfriend is going through something similar, COVID changed his mental state significantly (he is sick right now and getting additional oxygen).

Before that he was calm and kind to his daughter but now he is really aggressive (verbally attacks everybody who want to help) and depressed (does not eat and drink and says he “just wants to die”)

It looks really strange and not normal.
That was beautifully explained thank you
That's not necessary so. While "not doing social distancing right" will not increase your risk compared to not trying, with masks it's not so clear cut: You have to touch your face to put them on and take them off, and people might touch their face more often to adjust them etc. That increases the risk, at least if you wear them to protect yourself. And people might take greater risks because they feel safe. If this is not counterbalanced by the risk reduction through wearing a mask, it's a problem.
Additionally, if there is a mask shortage, it might increase the risk indirectly, even for those who don't want to spread it.
I believe D for doubleword is mostly Microsoft C/C++ thing, though I'm sure it appears in other places too.

When it comes to the assembler syntax 32bit word, my guess would be, that 32bit words (e.g AT&T x86 syntax, m68 assemblers) are mostly indicated as l (for long).

movl (at&t's x86) or mov.l (m68k).

Edit: Ah.. yeah, also intel x86 asm syntax uses it, so I guess that's where the idea of using D for 32bit values originates.
I don't really understand this question. The industrial capacity of the world is not a single thing. Factories have specific tooling in place to make specific things.

Even assuming the magic ability to re-tool instantly, raw materials occupy time and space and need to get to places.

Even ignoring that, shutting down transport and logistics pipelines due to not wanting many workers to be congregated also slows everything down.
To add to this, Textured Vegetable Protein (TVP) is often in stock despite other dry proteins being unavailable due to most people not recognizing it as food. It's incredibly filling (digests for hours), fairly inexpensive (~$3.50/lb), and quite high in micronutrients like potassium [0]. This is what I switched to after not having a kitchen in which to make pseudo soylent [1].

I'd recommend preparing TVP in the following manner:

1. boil some water and add to TVP (add chia seeds, if possible, for fiber and extra fat-soluble vitamins)

2. in a separate bowl, partially microwave diced cheap vegetables (alternating carrots and whatever was on sale was my go-to)

3. add steamed veg to TVP, add spices/condiments, and microwave for a bit longer

4. stir in peanut butter

should take about five minutes total

For breakfast-y TVP, I replaced the vegetables with cocoa powder. Peanut butter can also be subbed with any free food that you might find (e.g., from lab meetings).

You need to be smarter than volume-weighted average, not smarter than the average participant. The demographic you have in mind is trading relatively small amounts of capital.
Incubation time is the wrong name. Incubation time is the time until you get symptoms, not the time until you get cured.

Also tester don't test at random, they mostly test people with symptoms or the people that meet them. (This looks difficult to simulate.)

Why quarantined people can't move after they are cured? (I don't expect this to change the outcome.)

About the scenarios:

How do I get back to the initial scenario?

In the Quarantine scenario, each dot can move only in a invisible box that overlaps with nearby dots?

In the Mass Testing, remember to add some false positives to the quarantined people. (Mass testing around the detected cases is better, but it is more difficult to simulate.)

Superman only work in Metropolis?

Apocalypse is too apocalyptical. The worse estimations estimation is 20%, and that is very pessimistic. Probably 5% is a sensible worse case estimation. (Note that 5% is like 3500 million of death, that is really a lot, but it's much less than 100%.) I think this is misleading and can confuse people.
> You might want to check official govnt stats on this. A surprising number of american households are not a little beyond that, they are exactly there, where a $400 expense would put them over the edge. Or, in this case, $400 in lost income.

That just says people don't save any money, not that they can't save any money.

That's not to say that saving money isn't difficult for some people, but by itself that number doesn't prove your point.
Yes, I get that; I am curious what goes into a binary with 300 MB of code in it.

There is a bit of skill involved in Blackjack, and a lot in of it in Poker. Some slot machines also allow you to manually stop the reels in a way that can influence the outcome, though I don't think they are common in US casinos.

The laws are usually the opposite: games of chance are more tightly regulated than games of skill.

I have also pondered on variations of this idea of users _owning_ their own data and only granting access to their data to apps they trust, as a means to counter the status quo of every company holding users' data hostage in their own walled gardens and preventing data mobility between apps.

However, the one thing that I've always struggled with is how to handle apps that need write access to users' data in order to be useful. For instance, a messaging app needs to be able to write new messages onto the user-owned data store, but if we allow arbitrary reads/writes to some namespaced path to the store, an app simply needs to encrypt the data with some secret key that the user doesn't know in order to build a decentralized walled garden that stifles data mobility in the same way that centralized walled gardens do today.

My general rule for shopping is that the real price of an item is the lowest price that it routinely goes "on sale" for.

Some examples (in my area):

- The real price of a can of Coke at my grocery store is $.25/can or $3.00/12pk

- The real price of Aerie underwear is $3.50/pair.

- The real price of KitchenAid stand mixers is $189.99

From what I've read, it seems like Wayland's "controversial design choices" don't stem from developers being inconsiderate of different workflows, but rather from the intention of making a general purpose protocol.

Being general purpose means that things like screenshotting capabilities are not the protocol's concern and should be implemented in the upper layer(s) instead.

In that case, this general purpose approach seems to me like the right way to tackle the problem, since we won't need a different protocol for use cases that fall outside the traditional desktop paradigm. You can just use Wayland and implement your own business code on top. There'll be a de-facto standard way to do graphics on Linux, no matter your use case.

Correct me if I'm wrong about this. I'm not a Wayland expert (I have many articles and books in my to-read list).

I'm excited about Wayland for the simple reason that I hate screen tearing.
Agreed, I think Tim has gone off the deep end. The time to be vocal about the future direction of the web was in the wake of the dot com bubble. I think this is just a case of him trying to secure his legacy.
The comments are suggesting that this is niche. I don't think it's niche at all. On products I've worked on, I've frequently declared that all usability testing should be done when you're exhausted and grumpy. You don't tolerate

* pointless process,
* extraneous fields,
* improperly labeled things,
* poor ordering,
* sloppy UX flow,
* excessively accurate controls,
* super-tiny buttons,
* things when you're like that.

In a similar way, when you're drunk, you can't /do/ process like that.

I think it's a lovely idea and more systems should be designed with that in mind.

Drunk, I might be able to operate a computer as well as my grandmother; so, if it can support me drunk, it can support my grandmother.
Do you remember 2000 and the Diebold controversy? We had an Diebold engineer testifying on record about the deficiencies of these systems. I know it’s been 20 years, but I do think we need to take the integrity of our elections more seriously (and I say that being VERY happy that Trump lost the election).
M1 seems to be pretty heavily I/O limited - the amount of supported Thunderbolt ports is way down (2 on every M1 device and no more), the screen support is down as well.

Hopefully they fix it in the next iteration.
> they're all but complicit in perpetuating this

The message they removed for violating their rules stated-- after repeating the stolen election blather that he's been spinning for the last month--:

"We have to have peace. We have to have law and order we have to respect our great people in law and order. We don't want anybody hurt. [...] We have to have peace. So go home, we love you, you're very special, you've seen what happens you've seen the way others are treated that are so bad and so evil. I know how you feel. But go home and go home in peace.

They stormed the capitol, some with guns in hand. Five firearms were seized from the rioters.
While you can get a chip-enabled card reader to accept a magstripe-only transaction by altering the magstripe, the final authorisation decision is with the card issuer.

And the card schemes are mandating the issuers to keep track whether a card was issued with a chip and then reject authorisation attempts with a magstripe that claims "no chip" available.

That being said, in reality there are again and again still issuers who did not implement this and similar security measures [1].

Sure; but half the problems apply to other build tools too, not just sbt.

Take for example the point on syntax - is gradles groovy receiver syntax not just as esoteric as operator overloading?

You can disagree all you want you really are categorising these numbers incorrectly; the data as supplied lists the categories “open”, “occupied”, and “% of open beds occupied” - which seems pretty clear.

There is inherently no “true number” of beds because this number varies in response to things like hospital space configuration, staffing levels, and demand.

AFAIK the term “open” is analogous to that in “open for business” - there may be other physical “beds” available, but without staff or without some equipment or some other constraint that makes them not open.

I do appreciate that it’s confusing, because I had to doh me check myself. But it’s not without reason that it’s described that way.
> These are my friends who I really want to see succeed though, so I'm looking for advice on how to motivate them.

I was reminded of Richard Branson's motley collection of friends he started with in business. Some stayed with him for several years, while others who made vital contributions moved on after a few seasons. Ultimately, you're looking for people who want to join the fun. Growth, success, & money follows.

So my goal was to take this code I created in Python, and turn it into a REST engine [Probably via Flask]. The Database Server is running PostgreSQL.

I would like to create an application server that simply takes user input, call the REST engine and, returns the results in a "pretty" manor.

I am trying to figure out how to deploy this all in the best way, in a hosted envionment. I suppose i can rephrase: what is the best [and simplest] way to host a 3 tiered app?
I've never liked the characteristics of Steve Jobs (and 90s Bill Gates) as mean. They're what I'd called "evil" - in the sense that they will do anything to get the works done, ethics or social norms be damned. But that's much different than being "mean". You can certainly be "evil" (with the quoted definition of evil above), but not mean.

Not that it's fine being "evil", but that's another discussion.
...Yet. It is open source: you are welcome to port it to Windows and I'm sure they would be happy to accept your patch.
