I've never found anything like snouts.online on Reddit. Even /r/furry doesn't come close. It's the Anthrocon or MFF of subreddits. Furry may be a niche, but it's a big niche. Mastodon has several furry-focused instances with their own unique communities.

There are a lot of good subreddits, but the nature of the experience is different from a Mastodon instance. And a Pleroma instance will also be different because the choice of Pleroma over Mastodon is conscious.

Mastodon doesn't yet have communities centered around hashtags (like #amwriting or #mbmbam, for example) like on Twitter, but it's getting there.
There was this story in Science last year about a 90% success rate in cranial surgery by Pre-Columbian Inca physicians. Their sample sizes are low but an observed scaling up of success rates over a 400 year period speaks to institutional mastery beyond what western medicine was able to accomplish until after the discovery of antibiotics.

I don't think this advice is really detailed enough to cover the breadth of the embedded space and/or comes with enough caveats about lack of writeable storage and reused keys. Also, sometimes people use 'embedded' to refer to things that are really full-sized computers (e.g., ARM with ordinary read/write storage), and on those you should just use ordinary CSPRNG implementations like Fortuna (which is not deterministic but does implement key erasure).

> While some workers point-and-call more enthusiastically than others

Yes, I have seen this. Rail workers are great at it, but in other places, it can get worse. I saw a guy pointing to both sides of the sidewalk - to assure that it was free of people - before letting a truck get into a parking lot. His colleague will barely move the hands. It looked slightly awkward.

> Japanese commentators have theorized that Western employees feel “silly” performing the requisite gestures and calls.

I guess that this is what humans are bad at. We overvalue our awareness, and we put a lot of much weight on any act with social implications.

While I was at Fuji, I saw what it seemed a guy training alongside the train driver. He laughed time to time at his own movements. They both had a great time. So, even for Japanese, seems that the situation is slightly awkward.
I closed my account on Amazon a while back and barely ever shop there due to how they treat their employees and their general bloated business model. I now actively shop from other online sites when I'm looking for a product and will gladly pay a little extra.
The problem with Amazon is that every time I go there, I'm treated with a cluttered mess of ads and products all over the place. Whenever I search for what I want, I'm now treated with ads integrated into the product list that look exactly like a product listing, horizontal bar product listings of related/"recommended" products, and 300 (exaggeration) different spammy options for buying a product as a "subscription" or "bundled with amazon prime" at different price points when I only want to select a quantity.
Its mostly horrendous garbage now and I'm so glad I closed my account and never use it. Its helped me save a lot of money (by removing temptation) and shop in other places that don't try and up-sell me on other products.
Also, most products I can get immediately by just driving to a local store. I don't have to wait 2-4 days to get it.

Economics of radio made songs shorter too. Listen to Sun Records tracks and there are plenty of 3 minute songs. I know a few recording artists with several million streams and “radio edits” have been a thing for a long time and not a single one mentions Spotify economics as a motivator for particular edits. I am not sure that recording artists are actually doing Spotify math when it comes to their mixes — they’re often just using the same “radio math” they’ve always done. Pop songs have always been radio friendly. The only artists that can get away with a Stairway to Heaven length song are Led Zepplin-level acts, and even then it has to be an extraordinarily massive tune to get a 5 minute+ song on the radio.

> In 2008 Facebook itself was in infancy

That's quite an overstatement, to put it very mildly. Facebook was allowing open non-.edu signups by 2006, and the buzz around it from it's school success was immense. By 2008 it certainly wasn't seeing a critical mass of boomers and other late(st) adopters, but it was still huge by any measure - 100 million users, and growing with unprecedented speed.

People were absolutely already uploading phone pictures to FB and other sites by then; I think there may even have been Facebook apps shipping on non-smartphones by that time, it was one of the earliest things carriers used to flog data plans. I agree that "the majority of the world" wasn't uploading phone pictures anywhere by then, but then I'd be surprised if that rather high bar has been reached today either.
I love this counter-intuitive thinking.

A while ago at dinner a friend said she was trying to do the right thing environmentally, but it was just too complex. (The case in point was her wanting an EV but hearing that while the car would be clean, there would still be emissions back at the power plant producing the electricity - true in many places but not in my country which has around 78% renewable grid energy).

Your comment clarifies just how very complex it is understanding the overall impact on the environment of our actions.

If there were safety advantages with cooperative driving and ultimately efficiencies I bet a public relations campaign could convince people. Or having dedicated lanes for cooperative driving. I would certainly turn this on for interstate driving.
Nope. Yes, the Wikipedia link says 20 um isotropic resolution, but that means 20 um per direction. 20 um is a unit of length, while 20 um ^ 3, a unit of volume. If it were about volume, you'd be correct.

Also, I just looked at the paper [1] and here it says:

> To generate a data set with isotropic resolution, we down-scaled all images to 20 µm by 20 µm to match the section thickness of 20 µm.

So that confirms the 20 um per direction, no?

Edit: oh no, I just see that I wrote 1 um above, not 20. Not that 2.71 is correct but I guess that's what confused you. Corrected. Thanks!

You might have had that problem in 2013, since Mint editions were based on the latest Ubuntu release. But since May 2014, all releases of Mint are based instead on Ubuntu LTS release. This means they get support for five years, rather than 9 months. For example Mint 17 (May 2014) has support and updates that will only cease this April. The latest release, 19.1, is supported for 10 years, until 2028.

Have spent the vast majority of my time on OSX for the past several years, but still reminisce about the wonderful keyboard shortcuts from Windows.
> DAMN. won the Pulitzer Prize for music, going to show that this trend isn’t necessarily lowering the quality of music.

A bit of a fallacy. Awards aren’t judged against music ever recorded, but against peers released in the same year. Quality could very well be going down or going up, but that would be a trend that can’t be measured across a single award season.
I'd argue MacOS classic was the real winner here, especially keyboard shortcuts. For example cmnd+q always quits an app, where as in Windows you had ctrl+q, alt+f4, ctrl+w, and sometimes you just had to do the menu navigation (alt f, then e I think? and sometimes it was alt f, x), and yet other times there was no keyboard shortcut at all.

Except if the room has a tilted open window. It comes in through the window, but never discovers how to escape anymore from it since it keeps trying to fly towards the outside light through the glass rather than going up a bit and flying through the actual open gap.

No, there is NIMBY-ism in most places, the reason Valley prices are sky high is the salaries.

" There's no reason a dilapidated teardown-ready shack should cost $2M, no matter where it is."

The cost is not the shack, it's the land it's sitting on.

The higher the salaries in the valley, the more that dilapidated shack will cost.
I haven’t seen those packaged on board with an MCU. So actually for low quantity it’s harder and more expensive.

This is interesting but I don't know how practical it is.

The key takeaway is...

> The single most important thing is to test your equipment before taking it to Antarctica. This is obvious, but many people don't do it and their research programs are compromised by equipment failures which are completely avoidable. [....] Make sure that your equipment works correctly at the temperatures you will encounter in Antarctica.

But no advice is given on where to find a test environment that can simulate:

> Temperatures may occasionally go below −80 Celsius in far inland regions.

> The wind can blow up to 200 km/h in coastal regions, and it will carry grit in areas where there is no snow cover.

> Antarctica has very dry air which results in large amounts of static electricity, particularly when the wind is strong. Static electricity can instantly destroy unprotected electronic equipment.
It also confuses mathematical formalism with scientific method; the former is built on rigor, the latter trades exclusively in approximation.
I don't know about the UK, but China has been building new reactors. In fact, that's what's gotten some reactors to a TRL status where they can build them in America.

But from people that I've talked to in the UK, they seem to be more afraid of nuclear than Americans. This seems to be a common trend in Europe. Many people citing radioactive mushrooms from Chernobyl.

I tell people that unless they have the right connections or are destined for greatness, they should go to state school. At state universities, the professors either can't cut it as researchers, or they just give a shit about teaching. Either way, your average instructional experience is going to be better as an undergrad, because it's the professors' job to instruct you (and, for some, their passion). At a research university, teaching plays second fiddle to research -- always.

Plus, state schools are cheap in your home state. You can avoid crippling debt and get more faculty support, thus avoiding having to figure out the rules on your own with a $50,000 per semester Damocletian sword over your head.

Isn't it due to the ratio of highly motivated people being more on Mastodon or does anything else makes it so? Like HN vs Reddit.
Interesting--I've never in my career actually seen a user study or focus group that concluded that users don't like dense UIs or lots of options. Not saying they don't exist--sounds like you experienced a group that found this. I've just never seen it myself.

What I see a lot is UI professionals and artists simply declaring that interfaces must be minimal and abstract and that visual complexity is bad. Whether this is just current fashionable dogma, or if there is actually research to support this, I have no idea, but none of the product decision makers I've worked with have ever asked for evidence.

I mean, a lot of Hollywood blockbusters cost at least 10s of millions so 1 million is small in comparison (though large compared to indie films).
And many others don't even realize that investing a bit of research on better keyboards would bring us to much better use experience. I don't mean changing the typewriter style keys, those are ok, I mean all other keys; why there is no standard for a reduced keypad with the bare minimum for menu navigation and data entry? Unfortunately the arrow keys are a half solution by not implementing yes/no and other control keys. Why there's no contextual Info key to show information/help pertaining the current task?
The computer keyboard as we know it has to be extended, not taken away as the WIMP culture before and touch screen after attempted to do, with disastrous results so far.

I would welcome a kit made of say 120 key modules (one key per module, real clicky keys, please!) all with the same pinout, and normal+2x/3x/4x keycaps, special "key" modules such as trackballs, Thinkpad "nipples", analog knobs etc. then a breadboard-style carrier board where i can stick them as I want, plus a decoder board. Then, once the keyboard is ready, I can send a file describing its details to some high quality 3D printing assembly to purchase a pcb and case for my prototype keyboard and turn it into a real one.
