RT has more controls for finetuning (some of which is very necessary for Fujifilm RAF files still) while DT has never crashed on me. CLUT support is nice, I play with it when I happen to develop from raw data.

I should probably participate in DT's tracker and try to get the few shortcomings fixed... that should do for a new year's resolution: more participation in OS communities. :)
Incentives matter, but a percentage based tip is simply the wrong incentive. It is the same amount of work for the waiter if I order $10 spaghetti and a $30 bottle of house wine, or if I order $50 steak and $300 bottle of Champagne. Why should s/he be rewarded for my own choices, based on no input or effort on his/her side whatsoever?!
I don't understand why they don't just use a battery to power the experiments... Now all power supply related concerns are gone.

This is possible the best overview of a number of tried and tested workflows: https://about.gitlab.com/2014/09/29/gitlab-flow/

They're naturally recommending the GitLab Flow, but a good approach is to read through it and choose what might work for you. The important thing is to keep in mind that there are countless variables that will likely be different for each team -- team size, release schedule, build process, testing etc -- which mean that each team's flow will be somewhat specific.

And as for commit messages, I have developed a system which helps me write more meaningful messages with just a little bit of discipline: instead of summarising what I did, I try to figure how would I give instructions to someone to do the same. So I have things like "refactor MyBigFunction to individual methods" or "change SomeSetting to use float instead of int" or "implement NewClass".

So someone is sending fake referrers that get into peoples favorite hidden data collection tool, and these people have summarily complained here. And I'm supposed to care?

Who knew, vacuuming up data from your visitors may not be all its made up to be. Someone should hand this guy a medal. I should look and figure out if browser extensions can manipulate the referrer yet, spamming all those trackers and analytics services with fake data seems like a wonderful idea.
I've worked as both a server and a delivery driver, and even after having left both jobs I'd still be in favor of tipping because I think it incentivizes the worker to do well at their job. The US simply doesn't have the same culture Japan has.

That said, travelling to the US shouldn't be handicapped by a fear of tipping. Don't tip, or do, but not going because of it is an unfortunate choice.

I'm not sure about it, but I think a restaurant owner I once knew told me that the German "Finanzamt" (tax authority) calculates what the average amount of tips should be for any given restaurant based on the data they have (adjusting for location, type, prices). If you report less than that amount in income they'll go after you.
My favourite luncheon place in Singapore has iPads at every table. So much more relaxed then a waiter.
DietPI (.com) already runs on a lot of embedded platforms and is incredibly fast (despite its terrible webpage). Sadly there is no x86 image and it seems it will never be due to excessive hardware fragmentation, but the VM image is so fast that it makes one wonder how good it would be if run natively. It has become my choice for very small systems, followed by Armbian for ones with less constraints.
Oops! You're right there's no official Windows port. I've run it on Mac and Linux only.
Certainly wouldn't say "never". It may be true in some places, but there's a successful gastropub in our town (open for one year now) which applies a uniform 20% service charge rather than asking for tips. It doesn't have any more or less difficulty getting staff than other nearby establishments.

While this is true, it also sounds as an excuse not to improve. It is clearly time for the culture of United States to change, and not just change, but strive to change for the better. Punting won't do that.

There is too much punting going on everywhere, which is one of the reasons the world now finds itself in the problems it finds itself in. Please help stop the vicious downward spiral. Not punting on problems is a low hanging fruit.

Aim to reduce the cost of verified systems software
I find it very funny when people argue that increasing the minimum wage would increase costs for consumers (I don't necessarily disagree; in some cases it would, whether that is a bad thing is a different matter). I personally would pay a higher price, no tips and ensure that the workers serving can meet their basic needs via wages alone.
That one has been, yes. Others have not.
In a lot of places they don't directly receive the tips either, they all go in to one pot to be shared.

Have you ever tried asking for the charge to be removed if you're not happy with the service?
It's being used in large-scale projects because it can be used in tenders. Do you want government shell out your tax money for the latest JS fad instead? Imagine the outcry something goes south in such a project.

I agree though that XML is overkill for describing payloads in most RPC scenarios. XML is for describing semistructured data rather than co-inductive data structures (arrays, records, etc.). JSON shines here precisely because it doesn't need a schema to be useful.

However, once you have a need to communicate your API to others, or to develop in a large project/waterfall model, schemaless doesn't cut it. JSON Schema is doing it wrong IMHO. I think that since JSON is basically the object literal syntax of JavaScript, an RPC mechanism could use a JavaScript subset as IDL, in the style of "Logic Programs as Types of Logic Programs" ([1]).

Note that WSDL can describe REST-like and other HTTP-based protocols, not just SOAP.

I think lambda calculus encodes computable functions, but not algorithms, because changing evaluation order can make you go from O(n) to O(n^2) etc. To define time and space complexity, you need to assume something like Haskell's graph reduction. That's more complicated than starting with assembly and counting steps.
These comments seem to be redefining words each time they are used. A parent comment refers to "value-level code" in Haskell and now this comment says that "nothing is a value in Haskell". This seems to be contradictory.

It's hard to come to any other conclusion here—other than the conclusion that the author of these comments wishes to argue rather than discuss.

There's a lot to learn from the Haskell community if you're willing. For example, there's probably about two decades of work that's been done past the definition of lazy streams which you provide. Conduit, iteratee, pipes, etc. Really cool stuff with stream fusion rules and bounded resource usage.
I've tried Rawtherapee a few times and I haven't really learned to use it but I can easily recommend its documentation site (rawpedia) even if you don't use Rawtherapee itself.

I don't think it does. Tipping is expected even if a bad service is being provided. I live in a country where you have to give tips everywhere and everywhere the service is awful. Why not be fair and pay the employee well (and also pay taxes for that amount).

edit: I was thinking about how to award good employees and I think it's simple: give a small paper form at the end, where people will provide ratings for the service provided. Not all of them will fill them, of course, but I think you will get some feedback about who are your best employees and who are the worst. Also, regarding tips, how do they help the kitchen staff (in the restaurants, you can find other examples on other businesses)? That sistem isn't fair.

Ask HN: How to “publish” a socio-technical effect retaining the credit
title says it all.

Suppose, i have observed a technological effect/phenomenon that happens in our daily life.
But, according to my initial research, there's no mention of it anywhere.

And, I want to make it a formal , named as "some effect". Of course, preferably "kmonsoor effect". (yeah, call me narcissist :P )

Not interested to go towards "academic research/paper" route. Too pedantic / slow for me.

What should my best approach for "publish" / bring it to light?
Why is this useful? You can argue for both, but to argue for only showing the tax free price is just hiding the price; It's not like you can ask for the tax to be taken off.

In the UK we have a default all included price on items for example in supermarkets, but in wholesale shops targeting businesses prices will be shown as with and without VAT as businesses can reclaim it. Makes perfect sense, reduces cognitive load, makes comparison of prices easier, means the consumer doesn't need to understand the implications of the tax system on every purchase.

I am absolutely sure I never changed my settings, and that they have changed over time without me doing anything. Why would anyone want 50% font size at 25% opacity on a yellow then green background? I didn't ask for that. Yes, this is most definitely a systematic issue.

The bug reports I've submitted to google have been ignored, and that's a frustrating distraction from what I'm paid to do. Maybe if you submit one yourself, somebody will pay attention, because google is paying you to work on youtube, and hopefully they will take you more seriously than their users.
Work towards them having assets, towards those _not_ poaching having prestige, and towards improving their lives so that they prefer staying out of prison.

It may be different up in the chain of 'command', but those doing the poaching (typically) aren't evil people; they just want to make a living. In other ways: they aren't criminals, they act criminally.

In this case, tourism may be part of a good answer. Rich westerners pay good money for seeing cheetahs. There may be more money there than in agriculture on those poor grounds. It may not work for cheetahs, though, because they need so much room (and in the case of Iran, other changes may be needed to get tourism going)
Well, on the assumption that it'd work...

Now you've got a dam full of boiling water. And as you'll know from cleaning dishes, boiling water is far better at dissolving minerals than is cold water.
Can you expand on that? I'm a Fuji and Darktable user. What am I missing?
The comment to which I replied is still a moot point if what I say is true for the industry under discussion.

Whether the service is worse in some other tipping industries, is not an argument as to whether the service is worse in tipping restaurants.
I agree, I think this format works when the subject matter is trivial enough that it's easy to construct counter examples yourself once the contradiction is pointed out.

The "Name" version is a good example of that, I can easily see how most of the examples on this list can be falsehoods.

On the other hand in TFA some of the affirmations leave me more perplexed. For instance, regarding color conversion: "converting from A to B is just the inverse of converting from B to A". I wonder what's meant here. Is it just a matter of rounding or is there more to it than that?

The catch 22 here is that if you understand this list then chances are you already knew about most of these gotchas.

So yeah, a pretty bad format. Now we just have to write "`Falsehood programmers believe about X` considered harmful".
Happily married my friend!

Anyway, they are using their position (dominant or not) to dissuade patent holders to attack them. I don't think that very fair, and it may indicate that they know they are infringing the law here.
Maybe that could work:

(Release notes)
Tipping is a thing in Australia, but it's not the pseudo-compulsary thing it is in the US. We do pay significantly higher hospitality wages here; nobody is going to starve if you don't tip, and nobody is going to hold it against you. However if you receive excellent service, it's customary to demonstrate your thanks with a bit extra on the bill, and it will be appreciated.
With a receipt from the same chain, yes. And on the receipt you always have both the with/without VAT prices listed. So when returning there should be no confusion.

Still doesn't explain what the point would be to display $1.00 on a shelf, if I will be charged $1.10 at the register with VAT.
Parent doesn't say that the magnitude of the achievement proves that the achievement happened.

He says that the denial of the achievement proves its magnitude (whether the magnitude corresponds to a real achievement or not).

Reducing supply will increase the price, though. If people factor morality into their work, doing evil will be a bit more expensive.

See eg the opposite happening with people taking low wages to work in charities and research.
I'd lean against referring to them as any Unicode-based terminology, as all of that is ultimately designed to represent all scalar values (e.g., even UTF-16 code units compose in such a way as to give some way to represent scalar values outside of the BMP, though they obviously cannot directly). The other notable thing about Python 3.3+'s representation is their ability to represent surrogates, which UTFs cannot.

Realistically, simply referring to it as "flexibly sized codepoint sequences" is probably about as good as we can get, IMO, because that's what they fundamentally are. (And there's very little terminology for a sequence of codepoints!)
Sure they will rather change to a platform in the hands of Oracle,Apple or Google.
Errr, oops, yes, my bad. I should've said term-level code.
While a page file is definitively slower than RAM, it's not a given that simply using one will make the whole system slower. As long as the kernel only sends rarely used pages to the file, the slowdown in writing/reading them can be made up by having more RAM available for the filesystem cache.
That's awesome, nice work!

Those were not the people used as an example. The example was real cultists, with robes and rituals that make no sense. And it's not an ad hominem to dismiss them outright based on their appearance. If someone I clearly perceive to be a cultist walks up to me in a mall, I'm not interested in hearing what they have to say, because the odds are empirically large that they will be wasting my time.
I doubt this very much. They'd be incentivized to make more improvements. Under our current regime what is currently a smaller profit would translate into losses under LVT.

Theoretically there's no difference between a smaller profit than is possible and a loss for rational profit maximizing agents but the psychological difference is huge.
The pixel readout is frankly poor on both apps: false color here and there. Probably both apps use the same library behind the scenes. On RT I can crank up the demosaic algorithms to reduce the effect. DT has no similar filter available.

DT also used to not do a good job on lens corrections (I have an X100T). Perhaps this new version does better since there was a mention in the changelog about lens data.

When I used RawTherapee I liked it, but I found the interface a bit opaque. The exported jpegs were not what I saw in the application, which in turn was not what I expected to see given the source and the modifications I had performed. I am absolutely sure there were good reasons for this, but I never took the time to figure out what they were.

In contrast, with Darktable, only once have the final output not matched my expectations, and then it was immediately obvious that I had accidentally changed the colour space of the output and my image viewer assumed sRGB – this was a two-click fix in the export tab.
