> does it really need to be pointed out that dogs have different nutritional and hygiene requirements than human children

The most common dangers are onions (or things cooked in onions) and chocolate. They contain chemicals that are toxic to dogs and should always be avoided.

Similarly, many humans are allergic to many foods, and not every human can eat all "human-grade" food.

"human-grade" is only a measure of risk of unexpected contents (disease) in the food - not a recommendation that all humans should always eat it.

I haven't tried it yet (still running 7) but I use the git bash shell all the time. Can anyone chime in on what the bash in Windows 10 gives you that git bash doesnt? Not that I've really fully explored but git bash seems to have a lot of the common utilities (it has grep and vim).
We did an assessment a while back, looking for options, and I can't share that. But this essentially sums it up.

https://graphtreon.com/top-patreon-creators

Sure, it's a good pay check for one, acceptable for two if you're in the top 10 or 20 patreons, but nobody is coming back to your site if you have 1 or 2 contributors. Now, put together a team to compete with current media, and it simply doesn't add up. This could change, but I was expecting bigger numbers by now.

edit: I just want to clarify, we didn't go with a Patreon model. My expectation was that the amount donated for Patreons would be bigger by now.
They try to prioritize their principles, but they are vague. Let's see:

> Our highest priority is to satisfy the customer by building a non-linear, proactive, and self adaptive system

Okay, firstly, what is that? And secondly, does it serve the customer if those are not the customer's requirements?

What if I don't want a "self adaptive" system, whatever that is? It could be bad: self-adaptive software keeps some global state somewhere and doesn't quite ever do the same thing twice. If I require something that produces exactly the same output every time I feed it a given input, then I'm ill-served as a customer if I'm handed some self-adaptive contraption.
Wong question (CUDA isn't cross platform). I'd ask, how Vulkan compares to OpenCL? I think both intersect in some way, but Vulkan only focuses on GPU (compute and graphics), while OpenCL focuses only on compute but has more generic approach (GPU + CPU).
TL;DR:

OO would be great if the world were completely different from the way it is.

This is something I've long wondered about. It's always been to me that global warming and climate change will lead to more extreme weather: Pump more energy into a system (global warming in a nutshell: more energy retained in the system) and the behaviour of that system will be more extreme even as average and median behaviour edges along.

I honestly don't understand why so many people fail to grasp this simple notion. I write this simply from this perspective of naivety: Why is this point rejected or not grasped by so many?

FWIW, thanks.

TinkerCAD is really underrated. People who already have good spatial and mechanical skills tend to be CAD snobs and look down on it. But if you’re not by nature a very handy person and just need simple things around the house it will do everything you need. It’s parts tend to have a distinct look. But they work just fine.
I have no idea. I don't fit the mold - doing well, grew up poorer than many, so my success wasn't dictated by my parents, but that doesn't mean GP's post is wrong at all. I upvoted it.

I don't even understand the internal logic of "Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother".

The reasoning seems to go like this: Asians-Americans make more money. Chinese-Americans are Asian-Americans. Raise your kids the way Chinese parents do. If you look at the stats, Chinese-Americans don't do especially well.

You'd be better off raising your child in the "Filipino style" if such a thing exists.

I agree with the sentiment, but this whole Change Through Piecemeal concept for these sorts of things cab be discussed so much more breadth. Let's talk about mental health with a focus on distancing the concept of 'othering' from our heuristics instead, please.
Have you ever been to the GBR? It's immense and peeking into just a small section you realize that it's teeming with a complex web of life that's beyond any comprehension. I think most people can't connect with the importance because the environment on land has been "tamed" by human activity for hundreds of years. Diving the GBR is like going back in time a thousand years in that way.

It's like we're destroying a galaxy with thousands of worlds. Frankly, the GBR more beautiful and complex than anything human culture has or will ever come up with.

You could reflexively post that, or you could read the article, which provides some evidence that the answer seems to range from "possibly", to "yes". It's tempting to just link to Betteridge's Law and move on, but it's not universal, and sometimes piece is legitimately presented as reviewing the evidence of some topic.

Personally, I think this is actually a useful conceit when considering something like this (which I believe I've actually seen on HN multiple times in the past) where a connection is being made that perhaps one had never considered before.

He was a mechanical engineer with some experience with autocad. I have to say this is still something the average person would not be able to do.

I never learned autocad or ME, but I do remember my ME buddies from college taking their required autocad class and taking many hours to design a simple part like a pulley, and then being oh so proud of their creation. But, hey, I am sure it was much more fun than their Fortran class which they also had to take.

My point is it takes special skills, training and a lot of patience to be able to design a part and get all the dimensions right.

It would have been more interesting if he was able to glue the broken part together, then scan it, and then print a copy of the scanned part. Is that something that is easily doable nowadays?

Why Most Unit Testing is Waste (2014) [pdf]
This probably all boils down to my lack of experience, but I just recently got a 3d printer, and most of the things I have printed have failed to perform their desired function. This is both things I designed (a replacement battery lid for a remote - the software skips the small details like the notch that holds it in place), and most of the designs I've pulled off of thingiverse (e.g. a water bottle lid - it's too tight and it leaks water).

My only fully successful prints aside from the calibration were the "hello world" roctopus and a toy car.

I expect (hope) that this will improve with time, but so far it's been a little disappointing.
Of course, but when conditions of the work are in question the benefit is in question.

This is possibly the absolute best comment I've read in months. It puts into words why I dislike JavaScript 'web apps' so much: the Web was this really neat tool for sharing the written word, and it's turned into a virtual machine runtime. I don't mind the VM, but it's a hack, and I miss the tool for sharing information.
Heh--it's like nohup(/daemom), except you make a SOAP call through some middleware to beg some more middleware for mercy so you can do the thing your user asked you to do, because everyone's being punished for a few programs' poor use of the old, more portable API. (I exaggerate, slightly.)

I'm not looking forward to what comes next when Gnome breaks through the new system.

This confirms all my anecdotal evidence about how lawyers think. They're professors and it never even occurred to them that their ideas could be verified, they thought their arguments were enough. Now if only someone would run a study confirming or denying that's how lawyers reason about the world.
We've evolved as omnivores with unfussy requirements and highly efficient metabolism
For those who can't access Forbes, it's a really interesting article about Sri Lanka's Mattala Rajapaksa International Airport (HRI). It is an enormous airport that almost nobody goes to has one daily flight and

"a 12,000 square meter terminal building, 12 check-in counters, two gates, a runway long enough to handle the largest commercial jets, and capacity for one million passengers per year"

It was funded by Chinese companies trying to invest in large infrastructure projects, and partly the fault of the dictator of Sri Lanka, who was recently displaced.
Yes. Even and especially surveys where the participants are not only compensated for their time, but are also selected from a pool of people who are specifically seeking out such piece-male work (a la Amazon Turk).

There's a big difference b/w posting flyers/ads in target-rich environments and providing a low friction way for people to get involved in the study. But if you do something on Amazon Turk you're basically guaranteeing a very particular type of person, because random guy with a high paying job probably isn't going to have a turk account and won't have the patience to create one just for your survey.

In some cases you can make a good case that this doesn't totally invalidate any sort of generality in the results, but for the most part I throw out papers -- on face -- that proceed in this ways without extended, evidence-based discussion of why the hell I can expect any sort of conclusion except "our result generalizes to a population of people who really need an extra dollar or two (literally) and are looking for pretty much any way to get it."

The tiger mother thing isn't coming from the stereotype of what it's like to be a descendent of a southern Chinese immigrating in the 19th century. It's coming from the current wave of Chinese, which is not accurately captured from that wiki article.

There's a lot of not super wealthy older Chinese families in the US, who came over a long time ago. Contrast that with Taiwanese American families, they're coming more from the 60s & 70s of the 20th century (not all, but more).

There's also like an order of magnitude or two more (non-Taiwanese) Chinese American than there are Taiwanese American.

It would be more like if you cherry picked out the current class of very rich Chinese who send their kids to Uni in the US and buy up investment visas, and then were surprised when their descendants were richer.

How many people misread that as illuminati? Be honest.
I later thought about how I was making a logical fallacy in connecting the linked blog's assertions of "it's not about speed. speed matters for init on servers", apologies. The doublespeak quip was because the blog you linked-to sets arguments like "monolith? hardly! it's 69 individual binaries! complexity? oh, that's relative. systemd isn't compatible? systemd is plenty compatible as long as you do things our way."

>So you are claiming that the point of systemd is faster boot times.

I was stating that was one of their intentions, which I'm still not convinced wasn't one of their goals (that same blog even suggests that is one of the major advantages (reasons for existence?) http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/systemd.html).

If it's not a symptom of NIH or wanting speed-ups for init, I really don't understand its purpose. If they (systemd/redhat crew) wanted to write a better babysitter, write a faster "better" ("invented there") supervisord. If they want faster startup times, patch init to support N-routes and some hot-path shell scripts with C-based alternatives.

Disclaimer: I do see systemd as an overly complex, desktop-focused (e.g. if it works for GNOME and benefits laptop-users, out it goes), bloated, opaque (binary logs, pretending switches on a binary == having a toolchain) piece of RedHat-funded feature-creep that will be inferior, less stable than any init solution that follows a Unix philosophy. And one that, due to RedHat keeping a number of important players on the payroll, will end up boxing out decisions that would prevent it from being an underlying dependency.

Maybe I don't get it, but I really think I see it for what it is. I know I'm talking a lot of garbage, but I'm quite serious: if I'm foaming at the mouth like I just saw lizard people setting global policy in a secret meeting, please drop some knowledge on me.

>If success is defined from an economic point of view in absolutes it makes sense. As the best predictor of your wealth is your parents wealth.

It's not the wealth. It's all of the cultural things that correlate strongly with wealth.

Today, they've found their way to the middle and upper classes in about the same proportions as non-hispanic white people.

My gut reaction is to doubt their ability to capture the nuance that goes in to mastering when you account for the intricacies of recording, instrumentation, style, etc. But, if you're dealing strictly with synths or something then perhaps this is possible to a degree? Even then a certain amount of the process is just taste.
The very first thing I did with my printer is go on a repair binge. Modelling a tiny gear in Blender (having done 0 autocad since college) and fixing a little toy felt like my first "hello world" on a C64. Magical.

I then had a moment of silence for all of the super-glue messes of my childhood that never fixed anything and a touch of envy for my own kids growing up in what to my 10yo self would seem a Star Trek future.

by hacking around (e.g. with a debugger)

In 10.11 Apple added System Integrity Protection[1][2], so it might not be as simple as it once was to hack preinstalled apps. From wiki:

Most preinstalled Apple applications in /Applications are protected as well. The kernel stops all processes without specific privileges from writing to flagged files and folders. It also prevents code injection, runtime attachment (like debugging) and DTrace

Ask HN: A framework for pipeline-oriented processing *not* on the JVM?
I'm looking to design an application that is, conceptually, a pipeline of data being streamed from one end and being increasingly refined, spitting out intermediate data that go into multiple pipelines with multiple outputs that join or loop back, eventually going into one or more output. All this needs to run continuously, with maximum parallelism, on a cluster of hosts. It's not realtime, however.

Last I checked, all of the distributed processing world outside of Google is is using Java these days. I've heard of, but not used, frameworks such as Hadoop, Spark and Storm that seem like good fits for this kind of processing. However, I have zero interest in being on the JVM, and I want to build this system in Go, Elixir/Erlang or C++. (Ocaml/Reason is also on my list of interesting languages, but I don't think it has the needed concurrency support yet.) I'd be happy using a JVM system as long as all the application code can be written in something that isn't Java, Scala or Groovy.

Is anyone else doing anything similar, but without a JVM language?
