This site is a good idea, and the choice of tag-based navigation is great. As of now, your tags are mostly ad hoc and that will very quickly lead to a jumbled disaster. Already we are seeing people saying that their field's tag is not there.

I strongly recommend that you implement and design a semantic, controlled vocabulary for the subjects in order to keep it from being and hoc. It would be pseudo-hierarchical, but not strictly so. For instance, Physics would include Classical and Modern and both of those would break down into things such as biophysics and quantum chemistry. The question is begged, "But if we put biophysics in the Physics category, it would not be in Biology unless biology were also to be included within Physics." To this, there are two follow-up statements. The first of which is that you could include Biology in Physics. The second of which is the more relevant point in that the beauty of semantic organization of information is that things can belong to multiple groups. Biophysics could be under biology and physics. One doesn't have to choose.

This brings us to modifiers? For each of these, you could have, for instance, a "Quantitative", "Analytical", "Numerical", etc. variant of the discipline. Should you have tags for "Quantitative Physics", "Quantitative Biophysics", and "Quantitative Biology"? I argue, No. Instead, take advantage of semantic structuring of information and simply attach the "Quantitative" descriptor to articles having to use quantitative methods or categorizing themselves as the "Quantitative" variant of the discipline. The end result of this is that you can "build up" to disciplines that we know by using tags, but you aren't limiting yourself nor are you generating duplicate or excessive tags in the long run.

A final question, Is the above overkill? I argue, No. If you are trying to be a hub to discuss any and all academic publications, then your site will eventually expand beyond its initial STEM focus to include the humanities, the arts, and so forth. You will be confronted with the task of trying to essentially categorize all knowledge. I argue that you should just plan for that from day one and take advantage of semantic structuring of information to not only allow discoverability of disciplines we know exist, but to eventually generate insights into combinations of disciplines of which we as a society have not yet conceived.
It's time to bring fanny packs back, but please don't turn them into power banks.
You Give Code a Bad Name - Observations about naming stuff in programming
This is true for me too, although I will say that Indian and Thai places are at least the most likely to take me seriously when I beg them to add spice.
So the US averages a ratio of 10:1 administrative employees[0] per doctor. As a random comparison, Sweden maintains roughly a 1:1 ratio [1].

Ironically, the link below is a Swedish article about how the Swedish admin-to-doctor ratio is bloated and problematic.

'Take a nap' ought to be on the list.

A) Naps are awesome.

B) Putting down that mental model of functions, open files, and unsolved problems for a while often results in sharper thinking.

Not gonna lie though - most of my unwinding consists of refreshing HN, daytrading Bitcoin or making another cup of coffee. But ideally I'm napping.
Many of the video ads are "no longer available" for viewing (e.g. OneNation [0]) and I see no information about target selectors that they used. Is Google not releasing this selectors or were the ads not targeted?

EDIT: Ok, you have to select a specific campaign to see the targets. Unfortunately I can't see where to go from the non-specific-campaign-filter video I select to the campaign it was on. Also there is campaign ambiguity since they are identified by date ranges...ideally a better presentation should be done.

A general FAQ can be found at [1]. Note how it doesn't include political ads that don't mention a federal candidate so, e.g. ads similar to the recent brexit ad disclosures would not even appear here if they happened domestically. Similarly, gubernatorial ads would also not appear. I can understand that what is and isn't a political ad when its about an issue and not a candidate is hard to determine (especially w/out FEC ID), but we have to assume the ads are at least viewed and categorized internally before deployed and it is at that point it would be reasonable to mark them.

Sorry for the late reply here. I'm still new to HN and haven't figured out everything yet...

How are you doing authentication for the API? Is it session based or can you pass some sort of API token after logging in?
re: BCD.

In my limited understanding, there are a variety of approaches to storing decimal numbers exactly. Some of the newer ones are apparently less likely to lead to errors in representation but are more computationally intensive than BCD.
It depends on the country. France has extensive coverage of free toilets. Like the article says they have the "self-cleaning" toilets (they're actually very disgusting), many public parks have staffed(!) free toilets and so on. On the other hand in Netherlands you'd be lucky to find a free toilet even in food establishments.
Live in any other country than America, I guess, so an emotional person can't get their hands on a gun in two seconds.
I think you are mistaken about CPAs and accounting. For one, they cost relatively little, and two, they perform actually a pretty substantial task. It's very difficult to tie spend together end-to-end through a company automatically. Tooling for CFOs is getting better, but we are nowhere near this being something that can be done completely automatically. There are some nascent SaaS platforms like Bench and Pilot that provide bookkeeping services augmented by some computer automation, but a human usually has to supervise, still.
Probably one of the least spicy curries I've ever had was at an Indian wedding. They put all the white people on a big table together and I'm thinking they gave us a different dish to everyone else. They even came over and asked if it was too spicy.
Where is the nutritional info? It looks delicious but I need to know if it fits my macros.
My non scientific opinion is that the way they made the mice not be able to use their rear limbs (suspension of the mice by the tail attached to fixure on ceiling of cage) might have only shown measureable stress levels via blood sample in 6 percent of mice studied but that had to have some other psychological impact on all the mice - if we did that to humans at least we could tell human subjects what was going to happen, I am not arguing that mice have the same cognitive abilities as humans.
Good thing you don't need 64bit integers.

Seriously, as impressive as SQLite is for what it is, people shouldn't be given the impression that it doesn't come with some massive and often surprising caveats when viewed as a general purpose database.
Game-theoretic results prove that this cannot possibly work (tragedy of the commons).

Your second sentence is no argument, just a claim. I counter-claim that I do have that right. So it seems to be a stalemate with respect to claims.
Data for sale: The woman who turned herself into a corporation
Software engineer for a company that had made the work for clients extremely customizable, to the point that for most of the day I'd just be going through "GUI Wizards" to deploy a new instance for a new client.

Almost every tweak was just a tweak in a settings file or with the UI, and almost no new code was written.

Kudos to the devs building this system initially, but horribly boring for the devs that came after them.

There are at least a couple out there. eShakti will put pockets on any of the clothes they make (but their whole thing is they custom tailor everything they sell) and Svaha is focused on both 'geeky' and 'has pockets' as differentiators.

Sadly neither run a very large gamut of style.
I can't fit my one plus 6 in most of my jacket pockets let alone jeans. It means I'm walking around with my phone in my hand when I go out mid work day which is super annoying. Good to see some data on how far off pocket size actually is.
I believe what akulkarni meant to talk about is relation accesses (and not just locks). While the partition pruning certainly improved things, two sources of inefficiency still remain in PG 11:

1) Fetching statistics for each table during queries (which happens by reading from the data file off of disk). This happens /before/ pruning, even on PG 11.

2) The overhead of locking each table is still there. Although it's a smaller issue than (1).

We at TimescaleDB found (1) to be the most significant overhead and in fact we have significantly improved things there [1].

Not All Blue Noise Is Created Equal
I completely agree, I recall running into a couple here and there but the only one I know from memory that attempts that is kink.com (or so they say).
I believe what you are thinking of is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_hierarchy
That was a difficult article (pictures actually) to read. It shows (to me at least) how intimately our humanity is linked to a face that passes our own internal pattern matching heuristics.

I'm not proud to admit my initial thought was not how difficult life must be for her but rather how deformed her face was.

But then I was proud that my (our) inherent human intelligence and morality was able to put that thought aside and wonder what I could do to help her.
This isn't relevant because Bohm's theory isn't local. There are much stronger results like PBR ruling out a large class of non-local realist theories, but that also doesn't include pilot wave theory.

No known experiment can rule it out because it's predictions equal those of Copenhagen.
Human bodies are weirdly resilient. Sometimes you can trip while walking, hit the wrong bit of your head and die on the spot. Other times, someone shoots themselves in the fact and survives. I guess she missed all the absolutely vital parts, so she survived.
I am a man and I've never had pockets that can hold a phone bigger than my old 4S, and every phone since the 4S is much bigger than the 4S. But I don't want pockets to change, I want phones to get smaller again. Remember when making phones smaller was the trend?
This is something different. Zeilinger paints himself disproving realism alone and has a well known philosophical stance/bias here. Local realism testing here however is about being both local and realist, and pilot waves aren't local to begin with.
To add to this (as another non-Indian who enjoys Indian food), the descriptions are a little vague for me as to what's actually in the dish. I realize you probably wouldn't want to put every ingredient in the description but more of them would be good for someone like me.
> It's time to bring fanny packs back, but please don't turn them into power banks.

They're already on their way back. Several friends in Colorado have told me they've been thinking about buying one or have bought one. I'm also starting to see college kids here at U Florida wearing them around.
Show HN: Bedtime Bulb – A low-blue light bulb for healthy sleep
Hey HN,

I'm Greg Yeutter, the founder of Bedtime Bulb (https://bedtimebulb.com/). We make a low-blue light bulb for healthy sleep. For every bulb purchased, we give the gift of healthy light to one person in need (https://bedtimebulb.com/mission/).

I've been obsessed with the problem of blue light at night for almost a decade. Blue light at night has been shown to interfere with the circadian rhythm, which could result in poor quality sleep and reduced productivity. I've built several products in the space so far, but I believe Bedtime Bulb has the best product-market fit for consumers.

Bedtime Bulb not only produces drastically less blue light than other light sources (especially most LEDs), but it is also the right light for the evening. Based on extensive research, other products that claim to do the something similar are too bright and don't give you the warm, comfortable light that calms you before bed.

We are pre-launch but have 1,000 units shipping to the U.S. right now to make sure we got everything right. If you are interested in giving us feedback on one of these prototypes, I would love to have you join our beta program.

For $5 (covers the cost of shipping to CONUS), you'll get:

- One of the beta bulbs, yours to keep

- A guarantee that you'll get the best discount on the final product

Join the beta program: https://bedtimebulb.com/beta-program/

or sign up for our newsletter: https://bedtimebulb.com/newsletter-signup/

I'd also love to get your feedback on the current website and copy.

Thank you!

Greg

I've actually thought about this multiple times (this complaint comes up once a month minimum). The big deal to me is that it's super-easy to copy. You'd spend a few years marketing and growing a startup and then once it became popular, every major competitor would copy it. There's no moat. I think at that point you'd need branding strong enough for a stand-alone fashion firm that's not tied to just large pockets. Doable, but not my wheelhouse
Norway has gone even further. Unless you object, it's automatically accepted!
Right; I'm unable to even listen to music while in deep flow, because I have a composition/conducting background, and ANY kind of music triggers analysis that is a distraction.

I just listen to white noise.
It seems you are arguing that pockets on women's clothing are usually adequate? Do you know this from experience? Both questions are asked honestly: I don't know what kind of clothing you wear, and I might have misunderstood your comment in the first place.

That being said, I can only offer anecdotical evidence, but my fiancée complains often about her lack of pockets, and is sometimes surprised at what I fit in my "normal" pockets.

When she then shows me her pockets, I am often astonished at how artificially dysfunctional they are. Things like pockets that are sewed shut, or, somehow more laughably, only 1cm deep. Yet when I wore skintight jeans, they almost fit my smartphone (wether that looks good is an entirely different question, the option is there).

But maybe she's just wearing the wrong brands or something?
It is disgusting to watch military recruitment videos in the US. They are clearly designed to prey upon the immature, ego-filled fantasies of 17yr old boys.
The interaction between the 8087 and the host CPU. From what I understand, the way this works is kind of strange...
I heard somewhere (long long ago, no references to point towards) that some portion of the 8087 used tri-valued logic (3 valued, as in base-3 numbers). If that was the case then an article geared towards that part of the chip design would be interesting.
As soon as you have to open your purse, it ceases being an entirely private space. If your pockets are inferior, that means you have to open the purse that much more often.

And just because women can wear men's clothes, we should force them to do so to get functional ones?

I'm failing to understand the hostility to a fairly objective look at the situation.

How Instagram makes clothes travel roundtrip
Since the title gives absolutely no information about what this is, here's the description on the site:

> Leo is a PIM, IDE and outliner that accelerates the work flow of programmers, authors and web designers. Outline nodes may appear in more than one place, allowing multiple organizations of data within a single outline.

I still have no idea what this is after reading the front page other than being yet another IDE.
First off: command prompt (cmd.exe) and powershell are commandline client applications. They are shells just the same as bash is.

All commandline clients run attached to a console server, and that server is conhost.exe. Conhost is responsible not only for being the console server, but drawing the actual terminal window these apps run in. So when you alunch cmd or powershell, what you're seeing is conhost.exe "hosting" these console applications.

What we're exposing here is the "master side" of conhost, which will the other applications act as Terminals, like how there is gnome-terminal, xterm, terminator, etc on linux.

IDK if you guys have a food stylist on staff, but your pictures could use improvements. I get that you're coming from tech, where sleek and minimalist is what people go for in design, but that's not how food photography works.

You dishes typically have 1 direct overhead picture of a bowl of the food. you then have several styled pictures of the "combos" or of the food in a sealed package. People eat with their eyes first. You're trying to sell comfort and yet you present your food in a very minimalist/sterile way.

Compare your images, to someone in a similar space, hello fresh: https://www.hellofresh.com/menus/?redirectedFromAccountArea=...

Food styling is aspirational. It's about getting the consumer to look at an image and say "I want that". It needs to speak to those desires.

A zip-top, solid colored plastic bag does not make me want to eat what is inside the bag.
IIRC correctly, the File Input button was deliberately excluded from CSS styling, as it was felt that it would be abused to 'steal' data from clients, if the user wasn't aware it was file upload...
I don't know, I feel that AT&T should support greater security in their accounts -- after all they'd certainly have been happy to bill the user for usage if the hijacked usage had incurred charges.
Sorry, but this really doesn't add up. Chillies, ginger and spices (e.g. black pepper, cloves, cinnamon, cassia, mace, cumin, coriander) barely contain any sodium. In the quantities such ingredients will be present in each meal, the sodium content is completely negligible.

As an example, you'd need around 5 kilos each of both ginger and chillies to come close to the sodium content of one of these meals!

Personally, I don't have a problem with them having a high sodium content - but I do have a problem with nonsensical claims by the maker.

Blogs are such a waste. I dont need to hear your life story and opinions.
Post the situation, the plan, and details/documentation.

I do not have the time to read a literal 6,000 words.

I for one, do enjoy reading a long article and if I'm busy I will bookmark it/add to reading list for later. Everything doesn't need to be crammed into 280 characters or less. Maybe I'm just old fashioned and should embrace our race to the future presented in the movie Idiocracy?
> blue light that damages your vision

Can anyone explain to me how looking at a computer screen is not several times less harmful than spending time outside from a lifetime-blue-light-exposure perspective? The sky is blue and natural light has a blue component in probably about the same proportion as white light from a screen.

Maybe I'm wrong — and I'd like to find out if I am — but this whole blue light scare really just feels like a weird bandwagon.
I was tempted to call bullshit on that too. But a lot depends on the sort of pain at issue. If it's emotional pain, sure. But I can't imagine the imagined pain of boiling water hurting in any sense as much as reality.

However, I get that the most effective torture doesn't rely on actual physical pain. The worst thing is the knowledge that one is being permanently disfigured. And that's all about imagining the future.
>If you're buying pants that don't fit your needs, shame on you.

The issue as I understand from more than a few women I've heard complaining about it is that it is simply very difficult to even find pants with the desired pocket space and many pockets aren't even pockets, just decoration.
I've run a small PAC before and am only replying so other people can see social proof that these are org-types that normal people at least occasionally use.
Yes, the vast majority of users just worry about losing or breaking their U2F token. Such a user just wants to be able to log in and replace credentials.
The proposed solution, which I find surprisingly elegant, in comparison to regular two tokens offers ease of use: avoiding registering a second token everywhere (and possibly the invalidation of the lost key at first login). Compared to the usual TOTP fallback, it keeps the phishing protection.
What's your response? Do you fire back? You shouldn't let someone give you guff for something like this.
It's faster? Simpler?

Conversely, why would you choose one of those alternatives?

(I don't actually think there aren't any reasons to do so, mind you, but I can well imagine that if you really KISS, well - even at impressive sizes sqlite makes sense).
this comes up often in conversation among women. form vs. function. why can't we have both?

for easy reach, my iphone typically goes in a back pcoket if i have one (usually jeans of some sort), or a side pocket on my laptop bag if not.
> If someone thinks about suicide for years and then "impulsively" picks up that gun, I'm guessing the researchers count that as an "impulsive decision".

Is there something you can point to that supports that theory? I appreciate that you say you are "guessing".

Also, I don't know what "thinks about suicide for years" signifies. Probably everyone thinks about it at some point, and probably at multiple points; thus we all 'think about it for years'. I thought about being a fireman for years when I was a child. There's a big difference between thinking and acting, or there would be a lot more startups in the world.
We have plenty of alternatives though! I purchased myself a sweet man bag from Alcatraz about this time last year and I've been toting it ever since. The country I live in has a bit of a 'manly man' culture problem, but nobody has ever batted an eye. I guess even if they did, I'm old enough now that they wouldn't get a rise, only a snort of derision.
