There are a few errors in the paper. "HCI" is not defined. Figure 2 refers to independent and dependant variables for an observational study but the text under "Study Design" says it should be "contributor" or "outcome".

The software has zero releases. This doesn't allow comments w.r.t. versions and possible bug fixes.

I like the concept. Adding a graphic representing the model would help make it interpretable by non-numerate stakeholders, such as management. Or politicians (!)

It would be helpful to be able to make some statement on future support....is this going to be around for a few years?
Low latency audio would fit for doing live or studio audio production, not necessarily watching videos, listening to music or doing video calls (where there is already network delay an order of magnitude larger than the scheduler would impart). "Low" will have context-dependent meaning.

If you're doing low latency audio or flight controls on an aircraft for example, you would absolutely need to abandon the fair scheduler for one that could guarantee the deadlines you need are met. Sacrificing "performance" that is throughput/efficiency/etc of your processor for timing performance.

Think of the difference between doing statistics on a billion lines of data and flight controls on a missile. VERY different needs for scheduling, why not have a selectable algorithm?
This is not true/unfair interpretation.

An artist does not get paid after the first payment from the label from the sale of a CD. If you play the CD on repeat, the artist does not benefit, nor does the label.

/Labels/ get paid for every single listen on Spotify.

There is also Spotify Direct, too, and the artist can directly benefit more than if they went with a label.
As some people have already mentioned, spending crypto in the US is classified as a taxable event. So I think it's questionable to market crypto as a replacement for traditional spending when you have additional overhead that is not being accounted for and would definitely come up in the event of an audit.

I'm really getting pissed off when people overinterpret other people texts and create "news" based on their biased misinterpretation. What I stated in twitter post is that any company can do anything with your data or account, and you should not rely on any free service on the internet. That's it, only that. I did not say that my github account is deleted or that the reason behind that is one of my repository.

Moreover, for some reason people tend to read only that first tweet while what I wanted to say is in next 5 tweets too.

My primary language is Russian, and I'm usually very cautious of my written language and always try to write any texts (emails, blog posts, Russian craiglist listings) as clear, unambiguously and literate as possible, but always see people who just don't read. This is not an insult, I mean it literally: PLEASE learn to read in full.
Here's the NEWS file for the curious: http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/emacs.git/tree/etc/NEWS?h=e...
Only indie artists can do that. Record companies are now signing musicians and bands to what they call "360" accounts, meaning that the company controls every aspect of how the musician might make money, from digital presence to merch to advertising to touring. By staying independent, they can make their own deals, but then they have the problem that they can't get on the radio and have a hard time getting known.
I'm not saying this is bad advice, but as a vim expert I have a hard time with emulations messing up my flow. IMO if you want to use emacs it is worth taking the hit and switching to a whole new set of keybindings.

Being able to identify someone over the phone or internet is an incredibly hard problem that I think more startups should be working on. It is a constant battle between security and customer convenience. It is very frustrating being locked out of your own account because a company can't identify you correctly. If you combine that with the fact that companies are rarely held accountable for these security violations and it isn't a surprise that they optimize for customer convenience.

The best systems I have seen are the ones that use your credit history to ask you several questions like "Which one these four streets have you lived on?" or "Which one of these four employers have you never worked for?", but even those are gameable with some research. There has to be some better solution out there.

They refer to WWII and it needs to be noted that the industry--broader than just autos, had to retool, for war production. It was rapid.

The threat was immediate and the extent and length of the oil crisis was unknown. I do not --after the fact--assign overblown blame on remedial action. It's was called a crisis because it was. wwII was a crisis..because it was..

It's definitely true in my experience that disk operations are slower in Windows. Folks on this thread are getting flack for poor comparisons (IMO Windows is worse at lots of small files), but even when you remove that, and say, look at mostly portable code that deals with a single file, as I have seen using sqlite as an example, it does worse.

Not to mention Windows has built in antivirus reacting to all your filesystem activity by default...
I find it difficult to accept reasoning that a law from 45 years ago is responsible for American car brands being low quality. They know perfectly well that the fatter margins are in trucks and SUVs, so that is where they focus their efforts.
Thanks. I knew it was easy to get to my name from my HN provided info. I wasn’t sure how easy it was to get from there to my parents.

Having a pretty rare last name makes it really hard to stay anonymous, especially when you engage in public activities like entering road races, buying a home, and voting. Guess it’s a bit late to start using a pseudonym.

Edit: mylife is insane. I’ve googled myself in the past and this much information didn’t used to be so readily available in search results.

I don’t know how a right to disappear would even work when a bunch of the results are curated straight from public records.

Edit 2: I think if I cared more about this I’d have to engage in a prolonged disinformation campaign to muddy the search.

IPFS Project Roadmap
spacemacs! I was a long-time vim+tmux diehard and now i'm all about spacemacs. Org-mode and Magit are just too good to live without. There were a few hurdles when switching, mainly around auto-indent differences that were harder to configure with emacs. (dtrt-indent ftw, thank god for that). Also the regexes are different and not as good (i don't think emacs regexes do negative lookahead etc...) so some of the advanced substitution wizardry i used to do isn't quite as good.

But overall i prefer Spacemacs to vim for general development.

I recommend using the develop branch of spacemacs. It sometimes breaks but if there is something broken it gets fixed really fast, whereas if something is broken on master then it sometimes stays broken for a really long time.
1) below a certain scale, they don't have to comply

2) if they make a good faith effort, at whatever level of expertise and resources they have, I belive they will be within the law. I dont think there is any specific legal requirement to do machine learning or any other specific implementation of content ID.

I'd start with checksums, whatever level of flagging by hand I could afford, and go from there.

As you scale you'll attract the attention of rights holders and need to spend more. But I would hope the courts would accept a good faith effort.
Also in that "still having a society to be a business in" way. Revolutions and depressions are terrible for most business.
What you are discounting are the bad faith actors that use networks provided by YouTube, FB, Twitter etc to disseminate their message. I think a lot of us believe in marketplace of ideas where bad ideas are disproven and people update their beliefs and move on. But we overlook those who are so driven by ideology/emotions that they spread false data willingly to push their agenda.

They can recruit like minded and impressionable (often young) people and build nation wide movements if left unchecked. Most of us don't have the time to go and verify every piece of information for ourselves. We are relying instead on our notion of the normalized opinions. This is informed by our cultural norms and media narratives etc. The bad faith actors want to push this moving window of opinion to their end through a constant barrage of gas lighting, straw manning and general FUD. I think rational discourse does not work in such situations.

2 + 2 = 5 does not cleanly translate into our political situation because I think a lot of is driven by more basic emotions (for instance hating a particular group of people intrinsically) rather than something objective like this particular equation. There might be ways of having dialogue even in such situations. But I believe it is not through algorithmically boosted viral videos on YouTube.

that's why we will not end up confronting climate change, only adapting to its consequences. We're good at the latter, not so good at the former.

Here's a Sci-fi scenario for the 22nd century. We have a burgeoning Solar System wide society. There are huge rotating space colonies, and the beginnings of a Dyson Swarm around the sun. There are inertially suspended orbital rings and space elevators around the rocky planets. However, there is one huge discrepancy. The Solar System appears to have two Venuses.
I think there is a difference between collectors and people who just want to listen to music. I gladly pay Spotify each month to NOT have to manage a collection of physical or digital music.

I gladly pay HBO and Netflix as well, but it seems no matter what I pay, I cant get the same movie/series coverage that Spotify provides for music.
My understanding is that attitude is only a reasonable approximation of Angle of attack (assuming winds are parallel to the ground) if you are in level flight.

My understanding is that with still air, AOA is basically the difference between the attitude and the vertical direction of travel. (i.e. in still air you are climbing at an angle of 5 degrees with the nose pointed up at 10 degrees, your AOA would be 5).

So in my possibly flawed understanding the better way to approximate real angle of attack when the wind is parallel to the ground would probably be to take airspeed and rate of climb data, perform trig to get the angle of climb or descent as seen from the air reference frame (cf. airspeed vs groundspeed). Then subtract that from the gyro indicated attitude, and you get an angle of attack approximation that assumes no up or downdrafts.

That combination might yield something better to compare against the AOA sensors than just the attitude value. (Although I would agree that if it changing the trim causes the attitude to change but not the AOA sensor output, something is probably wrong.)

Emacs is the one environment that I've been a fan of from afar. I recognize the brilliance and power of it, but a few things have always kept me away from using it on the Mac. And I've put in serious attempts, including going emacs-only, then a custom evil mode, then spacemacs -

- The server mode compatibility with the way Mac applications are set up. I'd ideally want an emacs server running in the background, and a client app open/close seamlessly whenever I'd like. What actually ends up happening is that I close the client windows but the app never "quits". So it's a zombie icon always hanging around my cmd+tab list.

- "Windows" (or Frames?) have generally not worked seamlessly for me. I've to always put in hacks in my config to ensure the emacs windows work like other apps do for mac. They're either too small and then size up when config is applied (which has some latency so it's noticeable when it happens), or they don't work at all.

- Font rendering. There is some minute rendering difference in the way the same fonts that renders on Vim/iTerm/Macvim/Sublime/VSCode/IntelliJ, but it's the worse by far on my emacs. :(

- All of these complaints are for the GUI mode tbh, which I prefer to use since I like to keep my terminal separate from my editor. Terminal-only emacs is something I tried a few years ago and I remember getting annoyed by keybinding issues etc.

Maybe all of the above are old issues that are no longer present, or maybe I was doing things the wrong way. It just never felt like it was a seamlessly integrated application on the Mac. I hope that has changed or will change. :)
I would absolutely love a keyboard shortcut per project so I could hot swap between services without having to worry about killing containers, building new ones, opening and then resizing/positioning editors, opening (resizing/positioning) spec docs.

I agree this sounds trivial, but the overhead of getting my multi-monitor setup just right when switching to a new service in the codebase is enough to kill flow.
And some people moved their savings into cryptocurrencies half a year ago and it's been orders of magnitude worse than the silly 1-2%.

That's not hidden, nor is it inherently in conflict with prioritizing environmental protections. The question comes to what happens when you have a choice between two priorities. It is entirely possible to be a profitable company with a profitable income stream and still turn down any income that is in conflict with more-important-to-the-company values.
What about evil mode? Also spacemacs has evil bindings for all of its emacs packages.
A few bits of trivia for anyone considering NuttX:

- uses a pure software interrupt and redirects to your ISR's, so you incur additional overhead for all interrupts in your system
- ships with a homegrown c stdlib, which has several functional/security bugs (ex: vscanf will overflow if you use format specifiers other than [l]i/u), and neglects to provide gcc attributes for arg checking for the printf family functions
- build system issues $(MAKE) calls in every folder you're building, which makes it terrifically slow (especially noticeable on incremental builds)
- architecture makes it difficult to write custom drivers without building them into the kernel (eg if you want to use the kernel as a module in your project)
I am curious, the aero-engines are know to be reliable but electric engines are considered to be good too. What kind of complexity variation does a battery introduce in providing reliable power vs gas tank. What can be possible weaknesses if any with electric planes?

Watermarks have no specific legal merit and never did. People use them because it makes them feel better, copyright exists with or without the watermark and Facebook's terms (that you agreed to) apply with or without it.

Plus implicit agreements to a contract is a rabbit hole, and you'd never be able to show that a human working at Facebook ever witnessed this supposed contractual verbiage.

This reminds me a lot of those "share this image to stop Facebook selling your information to advertisers" meme that was going around a few years ago.
Out in the real world, I agree with you. I this specific instance I was responding mainly to this comment:

>Sounds like the author wants his tools to be as fully featured as the code that will embody the resultant design. In that case I would recommend learning more code instead of relying on a proxy that will never be as flexible

Which is precisely an argument by turtles.
Right. You're bound by their contract of adhesion, and they are not bound by yours.

Leonine contracts are enforceable only in one direction, after all.

This seems to strike a chicken and egg problem. Who will grow the talent? It seems you'll need to hire the mentors for that. And what's the level of growth possible? Isn't that capped by the level of your senior devs?

As far as I know, most interview processes are designed to hire potential. For example, if you can't learn fundamental algorithms in a reasonable amount of prep time to prepare for the interview, but someone else could... Which talent has the most likely potential?

I'd even go and claim that the current interview processes are biased against senior talent. Someone who already knows they are qualified won't be motivated to go and practice fundamental algos that they haven't needed for real work in years. They'll expect their own track record and knowledge to be recognized on it's own. But, the interviews won't care about that. And they might instead hire a junior with more time and motivation on their hand, which decided to spend all evenings for the last two months doing leet code questions.

Similarly, many companies seem to favor new grads, which they can quickly brain wash into their existing engineering culture. They think, these new grads really strive, instead of challenging the status quo, they internalize our processes and work hard to deliver, even if we're being unreasonable. Eventually, this creates a lack of perspective in the entire company. Hiring more external senior talent would help get more perspectives, and prevent this silo of opinion that hurts innovation over time.
The whole point of this notation is to describe limiting behavior, the true value of N isn’t important in the slightest.

The first one sure looks like "deleted".

In the second, you could be talking about being shadowbanned, but getting that depends on knowing what it is.

Also, being shadowbanned is arguably worse than deleted. I've seen shadowbanned accounts post for many months, apparently unaware of their status. When I see one with a listed email address, I let them know, as a courtesy.
I only just understood Emacs about a year ago, despite being a nerd for at least 30 years. I like to think I don't have too many regrets in life - but I'm kicking myself for not realizing what Emacs was way back then - or at any of the times I've tried it out in the past (writing it off as "a text editor")!

Never too late though, and on the plus side I've now got decades of hidden Emacs goodies still to discover!

I think this assumes writing an article only benefits the author, when in fact I think it benefits readers far more (if the blog isn't monetized, the author only really gets satisfaction out of it).
