How do you prepare the Beyond Meat Chicken Strips? I've tried them a few times and (as I mentioned above in another comment) the flavor seemed too strong, like they were trying to cover something up. I've been veg for a while so I'm always looking out for new alternatives, and this company intrigues me.
I've installed 5.6 on Vultr.com as a "Custom ISO" and seems to work fine, although I'm not exactly pushing it.
I would add Linuxfr.org and specifically the user journals : https://linuxfr.org/journaux : it is the website of the french libre software community.

Lots of interesting content you don't find anywhere else.
What is your definition of boring? The concepts explored, for example, in Solaris and Stalker are far from boring. If you rely on a cliffhanger every 15 minutes, your taste might be boring to many cinephiles.
Well, one could imagine a purely visual phone book, which contains a photograph of every person in town, as compared to a text-based phone book, which has every person in town listed by name.

The photo-based system would no doubt work great if the town had only a dozen people (all of whom know each other by sight), and probably work acceptably well for up to a few dozen. It's going to suck for a town with a thousand people, though, and be utterly unusable for a city of a hundred thousand.
There an extra consideration to add here perhaps: the US experienced a post Christmas and New Year spike. That would be less pronounced in Israel where the vast majority does not celebrate Christmas and takes the New Year less seriously. (Hanukkah, the Jewish holiday of the similar time was earlier this year. And although some Arabs celebrate Christmas, many others are Muslim and do not)
> But if you smelt aluminium, you have valuable aluminium.

And it's useless until you spend more energy to move it to where people want it.

> It's disingenuous to pretend (without any sourcing) that bitcoin is only mined using electricity that would otherwise have been wasted.

It doesn't have to be only mined that way. You're being absolutist. Competition has resulted in bitcoin mining being very sensitive to energy costs. It stands to reason that miners--especially the ones operating at large scale--will move to places where there is cheap energy.

https://www.publish0x.com/muchograph/top-5-biggest-bitcoin-m...

Several of the big mining operations mentioned there are located in places known for cheap electricity. Genesis mining relocated to Canada and Iceland specifically for cheaper power. Gigawatt is located in Washington State which has some of the cheapest electricity in the U.S. (part of the reason Google chose The Dalles, OR for one of their data centers).
Well, I‘d wager it‘s a likely experience if you venture into experimental frameworks. Vue3 is pretty new, as are dependencies that work with it.

I have not had any of these problems with `create-react-app` yet
Ah, I see. I was looking at consultant jobs. Regular jobs seem to be less.
* It's illegal in most countries

* It tends to be busy with pedestrians (not everywhere, as you mention)

* It's not safe when crossing side-roads

* It's inefficient if you walk at junctions
Yes, agreed. I want to add, "You can’t pour from an empty glass of water.” Fill your cup first, take care of yourself, then your daughter, otherwise you might harm both.
True, but there's plenty of Stockholm Syndrome as well. C++ is a mess, and there's people that will defend that mess to the end of times. Those people managed to get pretty good and have a deep understanding of all of its quirks, but lack the ability to take a seat back and admit that yes, nobody without masochistic tendencies would get into C++20, unless they're already familiar with it.
Looks cool, can this work on mobile? Via react native or something?
When was the last time you've seen cycling in an action movie?
Get insanely good and fast at WordPress custom dev,

find a shop that lets you work remote and bills you like you're a normal iffy rando developing for WP,

spend the difference between the time that you're getting billed out at and the actual time it takes you to do your work on practicing the piano.

The billing for the company will go up, the projects will get better, cause since you're so damn good sometimes you'll fix things deemed insolvable by other devs and teams. Just don't ever turn stuff in any faster than you commit to doing.

You're not gonna get a raise, but you do get more free time.
Fauci is a hero in every sense of the word right now.
The US government does have such a stockpile.

> The Department of Health and Human Services said last week that the stockpile has about 12 million N95 respirators and 30 million surgical masks —a scant 1 percent of the estimated 3.5 billion masks the nation would need in a severe pandemic. Another 5 million N95 masks in the stockpile are expired.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/investigations/face-masks-in-...

The article goes into a lot more detail, including what the stockpile includes, funding, and information about state stockpiles.
My personal requirements are very low as well (maybe not as low as yours), but I think if I had a family with kids, my minimum requirements would increase substantially. All the material stuff starts to make more sense once you have a family to take care of.
I remember this effect in September 2001: suburban outdoors was much quieter with no air traffic and a much reduced road traffic.

It was around this time that I started backpacking again. I had forgotten how much urban din there even when not in a city.

On the flip side, there is very little personal agency vis-a-vis the pandemic and reading the news/twitter may accomplish little beyond stressing you out as the practical limit on what most people can do is "stay home".

Closing all those scary browser tabs, emails, and focusing on an unrelated problem can provide a welcome respite from a world out of your control, and likewise give you tangible mental health benefits. Skill building may be viewed as a secondary gain adjacent to the primary goal of maintaining sanity.

So no, you don't need to become a brainiac genius during the pandemic, but working on skills is also a fine way to distract yourself.
Very cool approach. Using combinatorics to create a recipe space is kinda inside out from how people conventionally approach cooking, but it makes sense that it is actually a far a more frugal way to prepare food assuming you can actually come up with a suitable space that yields tasty outcomes.
I wouldn’t think any sort of indirect manipulation would have immunity to a down regulation effect.
Added weight is an underappreciated problem. Heavier cars mean more tire wear. More tire wear means more pollutants --going back to natural rubber isn't an option either...
I didn’t understand what the author meant by “fighting game” until the end of the first page. Maybe a definition of that term would have helped those of us who aren’t so familiar with different types of gameplay.
Can someone educate me why GC based languages aren't supported in wasm ?
I haven't - but I want to use my desktop for the camera and viewing shared screen as much as possible, I just don't like missing something if I have to step away.

As it is my Airpods ALMOST reach to the kitchen, just as I open the fridge they disconnect.

And they don't reconnect until I'm very close (though I suspect this is because they decide to connect to my phone).

Now that I think about it I should just join the meetings twice ...
This is purely a guess based on my own suspensions but: some jerk reported your account and Twitter's automated bot routines went ahead and suspended it.
OF is probably better supported by third party developers etc when it comes to plugins and so on from my experience with both. I personally opted for OpenFrameworks as my C++ library of choice after playing around with both for a couple of years.

To be honest though these days I think a lot of people have moved on to visual programming tools like TouchDesigner/VVVV/Notch as it's so much faster to get creative out the door with those and you still get glsl shaders and C++ integration with them.

Saying that with TouchDesigner and Notch youre paying (and in notch's case quite a lot), you can't distribute and files are heavy but when doing interactive installs and shows the benefits far outweigh the price and time saved so we use those tools far more than libraries these days.
The archeologist quoted, Eric Poehler, tweeted about it this morning: https://twitter.com/Pompeiana79/status/1365692315407441926

It's pretty spectacular.
In Bucket Brigade (echo.jefftk.com), I'm currently encoding and decoding Opus audio with an emscripten port of the libopus. [1] This stresses the browser pretty hard, and at some point I'd love to switch to WebAssembly.

Yeah, I don't understand what problem this solves. Seems better suited for a Facebook feature than a separate site.
That's a lot of text, I thought. Yet I ended up reading all of it. Interesting. Looks pretty. Can I be arsed? Will I not care about the feelings of friend 51? Good timing after that great TEDxSD talk.
Absolutely you can. That's exactly how LED matrix displays work (look up charlieplexing).

Unless the 3d environment is rapidly changing, you don't need that many frames per second from each device to capture a good image.

25 fps is one frame every 40ms.
Assume you used such a service (roundtrip) once per month, and it saved you 40 hours per year.

The annual risk of dying in the helo crash (taking the numbers from above) is 12 minutes flying RT * 12 RT/year = 144 minutes per year / 60 mins/hr * 1.44/100K or a risk of dying of 3.456 per 100K years. (overstated as the figure is fatalities per 100K hours, not fatal accidents per 100K).

The annual risk of dying in a car crash if you took that instead is 240 minutes * 12 RT/yr / 60 mins/hr * 0.017 = 0.816 per 100K years.

Over 50 years, your life expectancy has been shortened by about 12 hours. (This is the math I'm least sure about.)

Over that same 50 years, the helo has saved you 2000 hours of your life, for a net addition of almost months of life (assuming, as I do, you derive no value from the car ride to the airport).

Said differently, each roundtrip saves you about 3 hours of your life, plus gives you a fantastic view of the city on the way...
Y'all are falling for it, this isn't an existing service, it's a hype page. The flight cost is just filler made to excite you, it will most certainly be much more, none of the links work, there is no app, no faq, no privacy policy. This isn't tech related, this isn't even a product announcement it's just straight hype advertising and y'all are falling for it. Links like this hitting the top of the front page and spurring 150 comments indicate quite comically to me the sunset of what was once an insightful, interesting technology news site.
I think you were down voted unfairly. I know what you mean about the number of conservative views and the support they are given on this site. It may not be more than the normal split in the country, but my experience in the world of tech seems heavily biased to the left so HN really pops out. That said I am in the "People's Republic of Cambridge".
Technically it's Transocean (IIRC) who were the ones so incredibly greedy that they didn't maintain the rig they owned and operated.
This happened last year too:

However if you place it in one corner of your house and install a reflector with a 90-degree coverage angle you should be able to increase your signal strength up to ~4-fold with a perfect reflector as you're 1/4 your coverage area. Realistically getting a 50% increase in strength is great.

Using materials like aluminium or copper would greatly increase the performance of your reflector. If you by chance had a copper mesh, it would kick the tin foil a mile. I personally have access to sheet aluminium so if I were ever to build one of these I'd definitely be making it from that and not foil. (IIRC reflectivity in metals is improved with thickness, with these tin foil reflectors you're probably still getting a strong enough signal at close range from the side of the reflector you don't want signal.
1) 9 - 10 hours sleep

2) reduce multitasking

3) eat like a bird

4) exercise

5) don't commute more than 20mins each way
Sounds like a start-up opportunity
In a screw-up of this magnitude, people stop caring about the individuals who make mistakes at the bottom—they want to find the person whose greed made the situation possible, and publicly punish them to discourage others from being greedy in the same way in the future. Of course, since corporations, unlike people, are sociopathic and don't "feel guilty" the way our animal minds expect them to, this won't actually do anything.
What would I do for a Cisco WRT54G2 V1 with internal antennae? The thing is flat, should I sit the entire unit in a 'bowl' and direct it at my office?
Do you know or have an estimation of when your book will be printed?
They certainly look at who the top-rated people in each category are, I used to regularly get calls from recruiters who saw me there (this was in London).
Universal inbox is not going to come from competing self-interested businesses. Their role is to innovate and give us options. The role of the open source community and the general public is to choose and consolidate, eventually. In the mean time, we have to live with the complexity that comes with choice and try not to let any one party get too much control.
If you hover over the crate name you can copy the URL of that too. We've made the URLs pretty hard to guess but will add further protection later (and welcome tooltips to make sure people know about stuff like this).
It means that "Groupware" is no longer a high-value buzzword.
I've done the recruiter thing quite a bit early on in my career, so I think I have a little to add here.

A good recruiter spends a bunch of time getting to know people so I can spend that same time working on my skills. They're an expert not only at making friendships, but on finding and understanding what types of jobs these people have.

Yes, they are motivated by get-any-deal-done. But I am motivated to take the highest price, and unlike the real-estate example, I can deal with 20 recruiters a week if I want to -- there are no exclusive locks.

So it's in my best interests to spread the word about my skills in an easily digestible format to as many recruiters as possible, and to make the best impression on each recruiter as they call (so they'll remember me)

After that it's just a numbers game. Let the recruiters fight it out over who has the best jobs, or who is able to deal with clients with really tough problems. Recruiters are tools, as much as they think they are rock stars, their job is just one of providing trust between a party with needs and a party who can provide for those needs. Personally I think the rates some of them charge should be unethical (a percentage off the top for each hour in a multiple-year relationship? Crazy) but their job is to ask for anything. Hey, it's a free country. You can ask for whatever you want, right?

I think, from the getting-a-job standpoint, that its just a game. Recruiters call me up and offer me all kinds of low-end, low-ball jobs. They actively try to make me take the lowest rate possible so their split can be higher. They fake parts of resumes. So what? I'm nice to all of them, only deal with the best and honest, and let the rest of them go about whatever they think of as being good business. Even with the most honorable, we haggle over rates and such. That's the way its supposed to be. That's the fun of the marketplace (although it drives many engineers nuts, I understand)

Now from the other side of the desk, I can see where recruiters could be a huge pain in the ass -- taking up all sorts of my time talking about positions that they are never going to fill anyway. But even then there are strategies you have to employ to be a good at your part of the game.

I just think "you can't trust recruiters" is a bit trite. You can't trust a lot of people of various walks of life. But some you can. So only work with those. Learn the game and play it well. I've had amazing relationships with recruiters. Some are really good people. They have different incentives than me, but that doesn't mean I can't trust them. I just need to understand where they are coming from.
Here's a great set of demos for Python's turtle graphics module: http://code.google.com/p/python-turtle-demo/ You can easily step through the source code for each demo to get a feel for the basics of programming and 2D computer graphics.

There's a long slide deck included that goes over the features and their use as incremental teaching tools.

Here's a standalone turtle game development tool that basically wraps python's turtle and gives it some comfortable defaults for people who aren't ready to think about python or modules just yet: http://pythonturtle.org/
Somewhat related: I'm super curious if M1's advantages would melt away if Intel simply fabbed their current designs on TSMC's 5nm process, to have a level playing field between Intel and Apple's chip designers.
2.7 is dead.

Thank me later.
The thing i always think about with digital consciousness is that it would just be a clone that can’t distinguish itself from the OG consciousness that’s still resident in the brain.

The way this idea came to me was in a weird day dream thinking about the first experiment to attempt it... Patient lying on the table all wired up, a Dr. Frankenstein moment of ‘the upload’ followed by a screen witnessing the boot of the relocated consciousness. The doctor interacts with the persona, asking what it’s like and getting direct responses saying how amazing it is.

Meanwhile, amidst the commotion and celebration, you see the ’donor’ patient wake up in a reflection on the monitor and hear them faintly ask ‘did it work?’
Good TUI app for github.
> When other countries do not have GDPR equivalent procedures for data protection – which the EU calls adequacy procedures – there is currently no workable mechanism for sharing health data for public sector research.

If you can't guarantee the democratically agreed rights of European citizens then you shouldn't gain access to their information. That seems like the way it should be - especially for health information.

Following regulations is always bound to throw up bureaucratic failures but is GDPR really an enemy of progress here? Most Europeans see this as necessary protections for citizens who would otherwise be completely out of the control.

Privacy is a civil liberty that we should be learning not to disregard so easily.
So I agree with that phrase -- I'd say that the phrase CNI complexity generally refers to at least these things for me:

- the complexity of networking in general, which is exposed. If I have to know what a CIDR/IPAM/etc are, then that complexity has leaked through.

- the near-oneness of kubernetes and CNI -- CNI seems like a small facet of kubernetes (especially early on) but choosing the right provider, knowing what that JSON means etc is a big source of complexity -- combining that with the (usually) new world of complexities that k8s wrangles can be too much.

- deciding that every pod must be addressable was a mistake IMO. It would have been harder to design but I think some sort of connection/network proxy should have been developed up front and iterated on (maybe I'm unaware of the history and this did indeed happen). When I spin up two containers, if they ought to talk to each other, I would have preferred so make some `NetworkConnection` object over the ports they need to speak over, or some virtual network they should be a part of. Security would be improved and the explicitness of connection/being present in a network could have obscured the underlying networking complexity.

- debugging CNI brings you back into the regular world of linux networking -- tcpdump/iptables/ipvs-lvs/conntrack/etc when things break down in those layers people are even more confused than regular containers since just about everyone knows top/ps maybe even strace but far less people know how tools like ip/ifconfig/etc work.

CNI is for the most part really simple and really easy to use these days, but I definitely can't say I'm confident with it -- I've been running kube-router since I found it because it was simpler than kube-proxy + flannel + calico (there's also canal). If you use some of the newer distributions (k3s, k0s) you don't even think about it.

Also not securing node<->node communication was a pretty rough decision as well IMO. The Konnectivity service is a pain to think about and deploy, but luckily for me I can sidestep the whole thing with wireguard -- and calico will do it for me. There's also Cilium out there which does similar things.

CNI is a smashing success -- people are building innovative things, competing, and clusters share the benefits -- but I still don't know that I'd call it simple yet, I just hope it never breaks.

Here's one thing you will never see the NYT tally up: the ethnicity of the perpetrators. Seems like that's part of the story, doesn't it? Why do you suppose they're so shy about that?
I'm typing this to you on an on-screen keyboard with my thumbs. It should be trivial to do better than that with an implant.
I think search/discovery is going to be what really makes this service special. I imagine one day being able to see all live music being streamed from venues in my area at the moment, maybe even a link to the venue, the band's homepage, similar acts, etc.

Right now you have a great tool that helps artists connect with their existing fan base in a way that removes previous technological barriers and streamlines the process, but what about new potential fans?
It evolved a lot recently.

I just installed Ubuntu Lucid, and it detected both my built-in Wifi card and my 3G modem.

Granted ... I had to go System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers to have the drivers installed for both (as both are considered proprietary because of firmware or some shit). But it was a painless process.
If you read the Bloomberg article more carefully, you'll notice that the 5-8% figure refers to rooftop solar installations, not the sort of large-scale solar panel fields produced by a utility company.

That all is not terribly relevant -- the article isn't claiming that solar power will be cheaper than coal by 2013, rather it is simply fielding speculation about the implications of solar becoming cheaper than coal. There's a much longer article linked, and it deals with the practical issues of solar power:

The first comment is right though that he missed much of the nuances of C calling conventions, which I first thought this article was about. Still, it's much more interesting the way it turned out, a very good introduction to many interesting techniques that I wasn't aware of (and of which I'm not convinced of their usefulness, but still...)

Also, it seems more like an "audio/video slideshow" than an article.
