Awesome news. Charles has been such a helpful debugging tool over the years. Less so for web stuff in these days of browser dev tools being so advanced, but the ability to inspect traffic system wide is still really useful outside webdev, and sometimes it can be useful to verify something dev tools tell you.

Frustratingly that mythical video editing app you’re looking for was actually a previous version of iMovie. Apple crippled iMovie with the release of iMovie 08, which removed a bunch of previous features and workflows in an effort to make it easier to post videos to YouTube. Apple made it easier to create simple videos, but incredibly difficult to make anything slightly more complicated. Editing clips synced to music became a frustrating game of Tower of Hanoi.

I thought there would be hope with switching to FCP, but then they did the same thing in 2011 with FCP X.
Carr specifically addresses this point in the book. He said that he was hurt to find out that after he'd published his book, and gave signed copies to friends, in the hope they would quit, many of his friends never even started the book. One of them finally admitted to him that they knew if they finished the book, they'd have to quit. So to prevent that, they just never started the book.

He also approaches the subject from the angle of timing, and that stressful periods may be more difficult, because stress is one of the triggers. Or at least we convince our selves it removes stress.

So I 100% agree that just like learning anything else you have to be willing to hear the information and process it without just dismissing it out of hand. Somewhat related is the Upton Sinclair quote, "It is difficult to get a man to understand something, when his salary depends on his not understanding it”.

I totally went in with tons of skepticism. Here's some huckster telling me theres a secret way. Yeah, ok. But I guess after reading enough of it, I started to realize that I had become really good at coming up with excuses, and that skill was being used against me to keep smoking. In my view, he made a persuasive argument, and wasn't trying to sell me more shit. By the time I finished the book, I was completely convinced that he was correct, even though I had not yet had my last cigarette.

I also read the book over two days, so I really got the whole message in a short amount of time, as opposed to reading a page or two a day for six months.
As far as I could tell, this wasn't about getting stimulated by the release/ingestion of chemicals but rather involved zoopharmacognosy, given the "smoke" was produced by expelling a cloud of ash.

I.e. it wasn't trying to get high for the sake of getting high but rather trying to counteract the effects of pathogens.

So much so that I don't think "refactoring" should even be a concept - that's what coding is. Every feature, bug fix or change should take into account the new relationships and structure of the model. Leaving refactoring for later is ignoring the fundamental required task of coding.
Apparently they're based on the bible quote: "Bear one another’s burdens, and thus fulfill the law of Christ.”

Which sounds to me like a good justification for nationwide healthcare like we have in Canada. Except its done in a Christianwide way instead of nationwide.

I find that interesting, since the argument against nationwide healthcare is often: "Why should I pay for other peoples health issues if I'm healthy." Or to put it differently, the every man for themselves mentality.

What are your thoughts on nationwide healthcare then, as an extended version of CHM, but where the values (aka, rules of elegibility, and what is covered/not covered) are those of the nation instead of those of specific Christian organizations?

Is it really important for you for it to be an opt in system? Is it really important that it be based on a specific interpretation of Christian values instead of the larger US values? Or is it just whatever is cheapest?

Show HN: CleanBrowsing – A Free Anycast DNS Resolver (with Adult content filter)
Would like to share here a project that we have been working on for the last ~12 months.

It all started with the goal of properly blocking adult & explicit content out of our own kids devices and expanded it to a free service that anyone can use.

Take a look:
https://cleanbrowsing.org

CleanBrowsing is free Anycast DNS resolver that automatically blocks adult content and enforces safe search on Google, Google Image search, Bing, Youtube, etc. We have been crawling and categorizing the web for many months and we feel it got to a point where our database is large enough and we are able to accurately identify and block sites that should be not safe for kids.

We also support IPv6, DNSCrypt and DNS over HTTPS by default.

Try it out and let us know what you think.

Mastery of tooling is easily the most successful nerdsnipe you can do in an org. It abounds with metaphors to sharp physical tools that are ironically required to perform tasks safely. And, to an extent, it is obvious to see that people with more mastery over their toolchest will be able to outperform those of lesser mastery.

However, it is also easy to find evidence that quality of tooling does not translate to quality products in software. Not the least piece of evidence is Linux and the rise of free as in beer tooling.

I think it can easily diverge into navel gazing. It isn't that tooling is unimportant. But that it should not become the focus. If you want to make quality products, obsess over the quality of your product. Don't get distracted by what you know about what went into it. Focus on the product. Period.

Yes, you will at times have to settle for a proxy measure. No, they will not be perfect. Nor can they be. Don't fixate on a single metric, but collect many and constantly ask yourself what the metric is telling you about the product. Not about itself.

Indeed, this is currently missing from Chinese strategic calculations. While they do seem to be scrambling to build a navy before the good times end, they do that not to 100% of their abilities.
That's probably something that belongs in `componentDidUpdate`, you'll have access to `prevProps` there to compare whether you need to trigger a new fetch. I don't believe that `getDerivedStateFromProps` should have any side-effects.
AFAIK one can't get something that competes with high strength carbon fiber tanks made in a 3D printer. You need continuous long fiber placement, the opposite of "a little material here and there" 3D printing.

Now, printing might work for some other materials than carbon with similar or even higher strength to weight ratio. But AFAIK unproven so far. Would be a whole separate science project with lots of other applications than rockets.

Also, looks like the engine had some machining work done, maybe after the laser sintering aka 3D printing part, since the surface was smooth and shiny.

This is mostly talking about a different type of tooling and a different type of mastery. 'Tools' here might be something like 'immutable data structures', 'formal analysis of algorithms', 'linear algebra', 'debugging', 'usability studies', or 'project management', rather than some specific piece of software.

The examples given (paxos and map-reduce) are very high level concepts, which open the door to products which would be impossible or qualitatively very different without them.

I think some are too eager to project human vice and behavior onto an animal. It makes for a good story and we’re willing to delude ourselves, even professional observers. The article even used the word “puffing” and “smoking”—there was neither. It was clearly blowing the dust out before ingesting the bituminous material. If it had been liquid it was blowing away we’d read that it was having a swig and a swill of spirits. All it needs is a smoking jacket. The authors are the ones smoking something.

The way I stopped smoking after 20 years of 30 a day, was to consciously imagine negative things each time I smoked one (and remembered to do it).

I would think of how bad they could taste first thing in the morning sometimes, a mental image of a stale full ashtray close up together with the bad smell of it, and a slight feeling of gagging and throwing up one sometimes experienced. All while continuing to puff away without restraint.

Over time, I noticed I was not finishing an increasing number of cigarettes entirely, and that I was feeling a bit sick. I reinforced that negative feeling when I noticed it.

Eventually I just... stopped. When I thought of a cigarette I felt bad and the negative feelings would overtake me. I would call it stopping without trying. I wonder if this is a form of thought "replacement".

You're wrong about thread limit. I can easily create 100k threads on my PC and it takes around 6GB memory (and I didn't even bother to investigate that consumption, probably I could do with less). 8k threads is nothing.

Big banks and mortgage companies attach stringent criteria and high interest rates to loans

I think actual data would show that the past 20 years or so have seen the least stringent mandates and lowest interest rates in US history. When I bought my home, interest rates were double what they are now, and 20% down payments were standard (any less typically required private mortgage insurance).
Ten years of self-taught tinkering before I took a job. No other formal training.

I wasn't particularly better after 10 years than I was after 5, so it was more a matter of taking the job than building my skillset after some point.
To an extent, sure. But, I could replace "experience" with every usage of "tool" in the article and find that it makes more sense to me.

When you lack experience building anything, it seems natural to think that the tools used by practitioners enable them to do what they do. After gaining experience, lots of it, you find that the tools can help build a scaffolding, but what you are really building can often be obscured by the scaffolding. Which is why it is not uncommon to see some experts that can work with minimal tooling. They have built their ability to see the product and end goal, without the need of some tooling.

Which is not to say you can always get by without tooling. No amount of internalizing the instrument and idea of flying will help a pilot fly without a plane, after all.

62 class headers. Because Android and Java have a compatible API.

In the progress of this ridiculous case, APIs have been found to be non-copywritable, up until the CAFC got involved. Judges with expert testimony, and expert experience have repeatedly said they are not able to be copywrited. On all four fair-use factors.

CAFC then gets the case and removes jury testimony, and overturns previous decisions through things such as saying Android is opensource, it is commercial in the same manner that Napster was.

Despite Android's API have different subclasses, methods, and body, the CAFC did not believe that they altered the "expressive content" of Java's API.

Whoever ran this trial doesn't seem to grasp the bare basics of code.
Answer: ∞

TLDR: After about 1 year on-the-job experience at a modern company you'll be able to build most products. For ex: I built https://wakatime.com solely by myself (over 6yrs since 2013) after graduating with a C.S. degree and working about 1yr professionally.

Long Explanation: I've been programming for 20 years and there's an infinite amount of complexity to programming, application development, hardware embedded systems programming, services architecture, distributed systems, infrastructure automation, data processing & pipelining, machine learning, animation & graphics, protocols & standards, computer science algorithms, etc. No one programmer can build every idea out there.
I actually hand-labeled the categories, but only for roughly the top 100 domains in each time period. The categories are a little bit arbitrary (where is the line between individual and blog, or blog and publication?) but I was mainly interested in seeing the distinction between individuals and companies.
Thanks ! It seems to do the trick.

Dust clouds are usually an off-color from the decay of organic matter or crushed rock. Since this is in a forest setting I would discount that it is crushed rock.

No matter what the elephant sure thought it was tasty.
Yup I classified that as "individual" because it is just 1 guy running it. My criteria for "blog" was that either there are multiple contributors, or the content is very far removed from the individual writing it, which I didn't feel was the case here.

As someone who grew up “A” and migrated to “STEM” later: No.

1) Art is dramatically different from the math and sciences. I can do both and it is a huge context switch to go from analytical and creative and back. I always feel like the other half of my brain suffers when I pick one.

2) The addition of art means that STEAM is basically general education. So what’s the point?

3) I think one of the goals of STEM was to promote getting children into technical high paying jobs where there was a severe labor shortage. You’re not going to get more programmers or engineers with a music or art degree.
It would be great if there was a button to set gradient as background for preview.
Again, the experts have a whole bag of conceptual tools to pull out and apply at moment's notice, collected and honed over a lifetime, which the novices don't even know exist. That's what makes them experts.

In e.g. painting those tools might include knowledge of anatomy, lighting, human color vision, paint chemistry, composition, perspective, art history, specific stroke techniques, ..., plus time management, working with live models, managing client expectations, a collection of unused ideas to try, previsualization, judging and adjusting preliminary sketches, ..., none of which has anything to do with the specific canvas or brushes or subject. The expert will get better results from inferior paints and brushes and studio, because of all their other hidden tools. What seems from outside like 'minimal tooling' is actually a cornucopia of tools.
Why? Then you just get a less accurate estimate of the popular vote.
