It clearly costs different people differently, in terms of mental energy and willpower.

Comparatively speaking, we are all wimps anyway. A Kenyan elite marathoner can run my old mile PR twenty-six times over. An elite powerlifter reps out my squat max for a warmup.

Which is why I said "proper relative intensity." If 10 pushups for you scores a four on the pain scale, but 100 pushups for me scores a four, then you do 10 pushups while I do my 100, and we both feel the same amount of "extremely unpleasant" feelings together. Both of us gain in terms of adaptation to capacity for work and pain tolerance.

I'm not sure what you're envisioning in your head as "extremely unpleasant" pain, but the saying goes that you don't have to train AT your max to UP your max. Exercise done at relatively comfortable levels of pain will still produce positive adaptations. That's why Couch->5K is so successful, it basically starts people off walking instead of running. But again, I don't care if you dance, run, row, lift, bike, hike, walk, whatever... it sounds like you are staying active already, which is great.

Here's another history, of sorts, of the FFT that traces similar mathematical techniques back to Gauss. Here's a snippet:

"In a recently published history of numerical analysis, H. H. Goldstine attributes to Carl Friedrich Gauss, the eminent German mathematician, an algorithm similar to the FFT for the computation of the coefficients of a finite Fourier series. Gauss' treatise describing the algorithm was not published in his lifetime; it appeared only in his collected works as an unpublished manuscript. "

Not necessarily. The problem here is that many appliances are the property of the landlord, and it's their responsibility to repair or replace them. Landlords who buy cheap junk appliances that need quick replacement are going to see their profits wiped out.

I really don't see how home ownership is a factor here at all. This is just a symptom of modern society where people don't expect things to last and don't penalize mfgrs who sell them short-lived junk, and instead look for generally the cheapest stuff.

I hate to say it, but if you're looking at Semrush or ahrefs for link data, those aren't going to be the best sources. Try Majestic or Link Research Tools.

In regards to "keyword heavy domains and keyword heavy content with all links pointing to their site", the search engines tend to favor on-topic content links, especially if those domains have trust and authority. I wouldn't necessarily call that a "black hat" strategy.
Quixey was the lead sponsor at a large college hackathon (I think LA Hacks) I was at a couple years ago. They were trying to build a search engine based on deep-linking into other mobile apps. A very good idea ("why doesn't google also search your phone's apps?"), but very hard to beat Google at it. The value needs to be very strong to get people to use it as a default search engine.

I would be interested in any bibliography you can supply regarding this interaction, since I'm currently interested in interventions (including but not limited to heat) that affect extracellular bacterial populations; and this could contradict some other evidence.

FWIW the author acknowledges in a footnote that some of the "human only" traits are contested.

I totally agree that anthropocentrism in a fallacy/trap that we can fall into in all sorts of domains of thought - metaphysics, ethics, behavioral/evolutionary economics or whatever its called, etc.

But, to paraphrase Marshall Sahlins, "'Animals are basically people' is a much healthier perspective than 'People are basically animals.'"[1]. Which is to say, I think we can let our biases slide in this case, because even though we're focusing on ourselves because of our misperceived 'specialness', we can still learn broader truths in spite of this because we aren't actually so special or apart from nature.

A similar argument could be (and has been) made in the reverse, typically argued as reader response (as opposed to authorial intent).

Without going into the actual argument favoring reader response...

In the same way that a work of literature has potential for less authorial control over intent than a film, one could argue, since there is potentially less ability to convey authorial intent in video games, that video games are actually inherently a superior form of art.

This argument has been made before.

I think there is really no defense for arguing the superiority of an art form, and really no attempt should be made to defend Ebert.

TL;DR: spend the $19 to buy a real, big brand USB charger because they have more to lose than grey market no brand.

Tragic. Probably cheap USB without mains isolation or maybe enough water dripped down length of cable and socket to create a circuit, because USB is supposed to be 5V DC.

Watch these USB charger teardown horror-shows to further understand why it's rational to pay for proper, authentic CE+UL, high-low isolation and quality components (ie insulated tape in transformers):

I'm not sure I understand - aren't you using HN as your platform to influence us all, right now, with your own good intentions? Didn't you have to go out of your way to find a link to that tweet to influence people and make them think Tyson is a bad influence?

As for the part about his responsibility, that part sounded like a no true scotsman argument (not sure about the spelling/capitalization of that, sorry). But also, couldn't someone argue that you, as a member of this community, have a similar responsibility to not put down Tyson? Aren't you contributing to the problem of hurting the perception of academics? Honestly, this is what got me to reply to your original comment. Seeing someone say Tyson was cheesy seemed light-hearted, but your comment felt like an attack on Tyson IMO

I don't see how his comments are more destructive than yours. But you are right, the question of whether his comments are destructive or not is subjective.

Wow, this is amazing how easily fusing can be done with just a few linear typed primitives.

The cool part is that if you have a for loop of vecbuilders and inside the for loop you have vecbuilders as well, the code can be fused quite easily. This is very hard to do with other data structures.

My understanding of it is that it runs a SHA-1 and examines the internal state of the of the digest along the way to see if it matches up with known vectors that could be manipulated to cause a collision.

I tend to judge research by its merit and its impact.

Merit is discussed at length elsewhere, and IMO you're flat out wrong about the normalcy of this particular agreement. But we can leave that to other threads.

In this thread, you're disparaging the research based upon its impact ("real debate", "real systems"), when in fact it has had a direct impact.

If you think they're being shady and you aren't afraid to walk in the grey/black hat arena, one thing you can do is negative SEO. -- Buy up some link blasts to the shittiest sites imaginably, or use a tool to do it manually. 20,000 new links in a month from porn/warez/etc sites to your competitor ought to take them out completely. The benefit here is there's really no way to trace it back to your site, and penalize your rankings because of this behavior. Edit: I'm not in SEO anymore, and I can say this is highly unethical, been about 5 years and I only did whitehat. I'm a developer now, and I don't condone or think negative SEO is proper, but it's done everyday, and I'm just laying it out as an option the op has.
> The recent attack uses special techniques to exploit weaknesses in the SHA-1 algorithm that find a collision in much less time. These techniques leave a pattern in the bytes which can be detected when computing the SHA-1 of either half of a colliding pair.

> GitHub.com now performs this detection for each SHA-1 it computes, and aborts the operation if there is evidence that the object is half of a colliding pair.

Isn't it possible for a valid non-colliding object or commit to contain that pattern as well? It sounds like eventually, though possibly in the far distant future, someone will be unable to push a commit to Github because it matches the pattern but doesn't contain colliding objects.

Does anyone know what the pattern is they're looking for? I'm curious now.
That's fair, I didn't mean to suggest that it wasn't a general-purpose computer running Linux, just that it wasn't really built to be used as a desktop. That said, I'd personally choose an RPi Zero W (which isn't much larger, costs 1/5th the price, and can drive a monitor, if you need it to).
Err I made a mistake, you are right. PCx means a limit of "x" per channel. My brain read PC3200 as "DDR-3200" ie. 3200 MT/s.

Tears aren't excretory or cathartic? Maybe this guy hasn't been through the right kind of situation.

When one of my kids was going through a health crisis I did a heck of a lot of lone crying. Each time internal stress and anxiety would build, my guts would get all churned up, then it would reach the point where I would cry and the "symptoms" would all reduce dramatically before starting to build up again.

I was amazed at the time that crying had such a noticeable effect on physical symptoms. I thought I must be dumping something, adrenalin?, out my tear ducts.

I'm probably wrong, though it's not the kind of set up you can test in a lab.

Details about the "incremental" mode are listed in the documentation PDF[0] at section 9.2

Here are the first couple of paragraphs:

"In this API, control is inverted. The parser does not have access to the lexer. Instead, when the parser needs the next token, it stops and returns its current state to the user. The user is then responsible for obtaining this token (typically by invoking the lexer) and resuming the parser from that state. The directory demos/calc-incremental contains a demo that illustrates the use of the incremental API.

This API is “incremental” in the sense that the user has access to a sequence of the intermediate states of the parser. Assuming that semantic values are immutable, a parser state is a persistent data structure: it can be stored and used multiple times, if desired. This enables applications such as “live parsing”, where a buffer is continuously parsed while it is being edited. The parser can be re-started in the middle of the buffer whenever the user edits a character. Because two successive parser states share most of their data in memory, a list of n successive parser states occupies only O(n) space in memory."

There does not appear to be a specific mention of having the partial AST available.

It's also possible for a SHA-1 collision to result from random chance, however it's extremely extremely unlikely to the point where it will almost certainly never happen.
Thanks for the link. I thoroughly enjoyed that. I never thought about the character behind the name. heartwarming
It is possible; the researchers estimate the likelihood of a false positive at 2^-90 (which puts us back in "Sun engulfs the Earth" territory).

There are metrics that will alert GitHub's infrastructure team if a collision is found (to confirm that we aren't seeing any false positives). Those metrics were quietly shipped (without the matching "die") for a week before flipping the final switch.

If you want to know more about the patterns, see the sha1collisiondetection project:

Yes, I agree that the oil has a major role as well.

As far as water pumps go, I've noticed that they often have alloy impellers now, and used to have stamped steel ones. I've heard of people rebuilding water pumps themselves (as opposed to buying a remanufactured unit), but never seen that done except in special cases (large stationary engine, rare obsolete engine).
I agree with your comments entirely. I'll also add, however, that even though this is cohort data 1) there is A LOT of data, almost all of it in agreement for hundreds and hundreds of studies, over millions of person years and 2) there is pretty strong evidence of a dose-response relationship. Both of those two points help (though don't entirely eliminate) the weaknesses inherent in cohort data.
