>is the new DynamicSupervisor more about naming, so people understand it better, than semantics?

It is mostly about naming, the semantics are the same. The DynamicSupervisor has a new feature called max_children that Erlang doesn't but that's it.

> Oh, and edited to add: does that mean using `:simple_one_for_one` with a `Supervisor` is now deprecated? If so, what's involved in transitioning to the new approach?

It will be eventually, probably on v1.8. Good question about transitioning. We should have some docs on that. I will work on it.

It would be interesting to see hours worked by full-time employees by themself. The US number of 1783hrs/worker, ends up at some 34hrs per week including part-time workers.

From the site:
"Actual hours worked include regular work hours of full-time, part-time and part-year workers, paid and unpaid overtime, hours worked in additional jobs, and exclude time not worked because of public holidays, annual paid leave, own illness, injury and temporary disability, maternity leave, parental leave, schooling or training, slack work for technical or economic reasons, strike or labour dispute, bad weather, compensation leave and other reasons."

True for many kinds of clothes but thrifting for vintage items still has value, especially if you are a bit off-center as a thrifter. For example, men can find nice, high-end blazers and tweed jackets in thrift shops because they haven't caught on in the vintage eBay seller marketplace. High-end consignment sellers have mostly moved to the internet, but you can get real couture for off-the-rack prices. Which is to say: Not cheap, but not astronomical, either.

Practicing law without a license is an offense in many jurisdictions; providing legal advice is in some cases within the scope of legal definitions of practice of law. (For people in certain roles outside of but around the legal profession, even implicitly holding oneself out as a lawyer or person qualified to practice law may have additional concerns.)

While public comment for which no one has been charged money may be outside of the bounds of what would be covered by most such laws, some people view it as best to be clear (and, in any case, such a disclaimer served as meta-legal advice that the matter at hand is one on which you should consult a lawyer if you have critical concerns.)

And, there are other concerned for lawyers in communications that might be mistaken for providing legal advice.

All that combined to justify disclaimers that include some or all of, as applicable:

I am not a lawyer.

I am not your lawyer.

This is not legal advice.

(Incidentally, I am not a lawyer, I am not your lawyer, and none of this is legal advice.)
+1 for the Slimblade. I keep a spare on the shelf, along with a spare Kinesis contoured keyboard, to be sure I'll never be caught without — although I've never had either fail. It's a well-behaved standard USB device (including the z-rotation for scrolling) amenable to 'xinput set-button-map'.
I worry about the transition as well.

Hopefully it won't be as bad as you are thinking if all the car AI's make the same choices in every situation. That way you can get a much better feel for how those cars operate.

In reality I think your concern, shared by others will result in cars that act a lot more like buses. Almost always in the slow lane. Going a very safe speed. Leaving the faster/passing lanes to more dangerous humans.

The autonomous cars may soon be required to have visible markings so that they are easy to tell apart as well. Perhaps the color yellow could be reserved for them?

These changes will still be an adjustment, but hopefully one that doesn't result in a major number of accidents.
All fields are abstractions on top of abstractions. Do you think every coder learns quantum physics? Certainly not, but it's vitally important for all modern computers. At some point everyone must decide either that they've cleared away enough abstractions for their purposes, or that their purpose is clearing away those abstractions.

Show HN: Slow HN – the best of HN, on your schedule
Slow HN is a Hacker News aggregator that allows for easy user-defined throttling of post updates.

I love HN, but frequently find myself mindlessly refreshing the page throughout the day. This feels unproductive and sometimes unhealthy. Tools like browser extensions that time-limit domains haven't been effective for me, so I decided to try to build something that would trick my brain a little more cleverly.

On the backend, Slow HN is a Go server that frequently pulls the best posts from the HN API. It persists data about those posts, as well as their position on the page, to a sqlite3 database. When a user selects their desired update frequency, they receive a list of the weighted-average best posts from the relevant interval. The whole thing is running on a $5 VPS.

I'm also picking up great historical data about HN posts and looking forward to publishing periodic summaries of the best posts!

(Another purpose for the project was to learn more about React, so apologies to the <noscript> crowd.)
Tax reform isn't the force driving Apple to do this.

Apple is doing these things because they believe it will eventually help their bottom line. That's how corporations work and make decisions.

Granted, tax reform may have been a contributing factor in opening the door to this type of reinvestment in the US, but it is way too early to declare these actions by Apple as a victory for tax reform.

How can you feel bored instead of guilty? Whenever I pause, I just feel bad about things undone. This week I realized I haven't been bored since high school started, because at that point there was always something I "should" be doing that I wasn't. Haven't been bored in over a decade and I feel I probably won't again, though I try.

The poster said "They're more carbon neutral than dino diesel."

I was simply stating that not only was I not arguing otherwise (if we're assuming "more carbon neutral" means better for the environment), but also clarifying what the term means (the binary state of being carbon neutral).

I think your statement was unfunny because I did not personally find it funny, nor do I expect others to. Not for any other nefarious reason.

I am an independent contractor, for NDA reasons I cannot tell you were, but here are some of the apps that I have developed recently:

- Image analysis for a massive amount of images. A system generates 60 images per second for hours. Each image needs to be statistically analyzed, and depending on the results, saved to a database for further processing.

- An underwater robotic controlling software. The UI gets very complex as it has to process in real time a couple of video network feeds, some other position information, and coordinate with other pieces on the system. Several custom network protocols used by other vendors.

- On the fly manipulation of mobile backups. There are certain types of data stored on mobile devices that need to be analyzed and secured beyond what the manufacturer provides.

- 3d data of cavern shapes. While the data could be easily processed on the browser, part of the requirements is to keep the isolation level to the machine where the software is running, sometimes to help compliance laws, sometimes to help companies operate under different countries with specific laws, sometimes because by law restrictions there is no internet on site.

- Marketing data analysis. There are a couple of applications that benefit from being a desktop app because they give an "Excel like" experience that gives confidence to the client's customers. By "Excel like" I mean a desktop app with a single file container for the data. Using local CPU cycles, and 2 people can take the same data and manipulate it differently disconnected from everything. In this project, there is another group that has a web version of it, but it just does not gain user acceptance because continuous performance problems compared with the desktop app.

Hope it helps

Very likely an impossible number to unravel (without Apple providing the detail). Their cost of revenue for 2017 was $144b out of $229b in sales.

How much room is in there for $50b in the US and all manufacturing overseas? It would seem theoretically possible to fit all of that in. Here's their supplier list:

https://images.apple.com/supplier-responsibility/pdf/Apple-S...

3M for example has six US location references. Broadcom has two US locations. Corning has one. Flextronics has one US location. Intel has three US locations. Samsung has one US location listed. Texas Instruments has several. And so on; about 40 locations in all.

Does it add up to $50 billion in real US manufacturing and supplier activity? Who knows.
>It seems like there are "scalpers" (can't think of another word for them) who semi-professionally go through thrift stores buying up the good things, and then reselling them on ebay.

Bingo, was about to post that but read the comments instead.

I got many herbs and spices in my kitchen, including little bottles of powdered, dried garlic & onion. I prefer fresh, but when I'm lazy I use that instead. There's also Tabasco for pungent/acidic taste (which also contains vinegar, like this onion juice product) whereas chili sauce here [according to my anecdata] is often 90+% sugar.

Now, the powdered, dried garlic is strong in flavour, but dried onion less so. You still miss out on the fried, caramelised taste of (stir) fried onions though or the sharper taste of fresh onion (especially the red ones). I do love either of these, but in e.g. a soup, if you don't require the bite, you're good to go with powder. Unless when you're making a French onion soup. Speaking of soup one could also check their bouillon powder ingredients. Some are just mostly salt (or, less salt + MSG), but some contain a complex mix of a variety of herbs and vegetables.

Onion itself (as well as garlic) is found and used in so many dishes in my country it is too much to mention. From herring to frikandel/frites special, gehaktbal, and even the vegetarian clone of the gehaktbal, "gehacktbal", contains it.

Current quantum computers don't have much in the way of microarchitecture. No caches or branch prediction obviously.

But if you were timesharing on a quantum machine (which, given that they need $1M microkelvin coolers seems like it will be common) it's not impossible that information could leak. Given the analog way they work, you could probably set up a computation that would be sufficiently sensitive to initial conditions that the not-entirely-decayed-to-zero previous computation could influence it.
Most spices lose their kick with age. They oxidize or the volatiles evaporate. This is why people will grow their own herbs.
>> It’s often cheaper, which is why it’s kind of a taboo topic.

That's a very strange point. Sometimes people think the doctors want to do everything they can "to save you" just to run up the bill. With that thinking, patients and their families would want to "save money". OTOH one may also interpret saving money as giving up and be angry that the doctor would put a price on life. You just can't win. Ultimately people and physicians need to put aside all of that and be able to objectively assess the situation. That's really hard to do particularly for the patient and family - I have no idea what it's like from the doctors side, but we had one that had his eyes wide open but couldn't drive the point home enough for the soon-to-be widow to get it.

Ultimately, hiring managers in aggregate decide which certificates are good. I can honestly say most of the time if someone has very many certificates listed on their resume their odds of making it through our hiring process are pretty low (information security consulting). There are only a couple of certificates that come to mind that are interesting. OSCP is one. The upper level Cisco certificates are well regarded. If I see a new certificate on someone's resume I look it up.

Everyone familiar with Cisco's certificates knows the CCIE is really hard to get because you have to actually demonstrate competence at fixing broken networking in a complex environment. Which leads to an interesting point. It is effectively a work product assessment. If someone can get a CCIE they can probably wrangle your network architecture too. It is similar to how we hire folks. OSCP is similar in that there is a practical part to their certifications. You have to demonstrate actual competence to get one of their various certs.

Contrast to CEH/CISSP you just multiple choice a bunch of facts. Literally, almost anyone, could sit down and cram for 4-6 weeks and get a CISSP. Even people that don't know much about how technology and computing works. Tests like the Bar exam also go far beyond multiple choice, having essay components and very complex questions in most cases.

I think it boils down to a simple thing: do enough people who know about the certificate and how difficult it is to acquire say it is actually difficult and or practical in a meaningful way. Equifax could have crafted such a certificate and it certainly would have been a blow to certificate holders if it was a good certificate with a convincing practical setup like OSCP or CCIE. The rough heuristic I always hear is what you said "Certs are garbage" -- someone else will pipe up, well I guess OSCP is alright, etc.
I think that's a good result, yea? If so, I'm glad it helped! Typically I use the double quotes to search for specific code/error strings and then use non-quoted words in the query to help filter the results to specific context, like the app name or topic. Others suggested the "Verbatim" option.

>Object detection from peripheral vision is not difficult though.

Because we understand high level semantic information, which is largely robust against blurring.

>The random filtered images looked much more corrupted to me than the blurred ones, which is consistent with blurred images being part of the training for the human visual system,

It's also consistent with the neural network training on surface level regularities, which a random filter would corrupt at a much lower rate than a blur filter would.
