I coincidentally noticed the gap in open-source for motion graphics, but never got passed the notebook phase. One of the pieces I kept getting stuck on was the way to correctly model all that timeline data and applying it to the scene. Could you comment on your approach to that for this product?
I also would like to echo the desire to see it open-sourced.
Funny how this came up here. Just a couple of days ago, I was debating with my brother about recycling and told him to look up an old Penn & Teller episode on this topic. That episode really left an impact on me and looks like many others.

The threat of jail sentences won't always work: The problem is when the calls are made from another country where the law doesn't apply, or else the law is very hard to prosecute across borders.
A tarriff is just the name for a tax applied to imports. The reason and the scope and definition can be good or bad, just as with a tax.

$115k/yr is $9600/mo.

You can spend $5k/mo on a rental with all of those properties, and have $4600/mo for food, utilities, bi-annual trips to europe, the payment for your porsche, and a housekeeper, all whilst saving half of your income to buy a house in the most expensive region of the US in 2-3 years.

You can literally have all of those things.
I agree for many of us ... but I think 'life is not easy' for the bottom 50%.

Most people sling coffee, serve food, work in factories, panic around in delivery vehicles all day, and with one wrongs step or bad health outcome they could be in doom. Lack of job stability, longer retirement, lack of community ... these things take their tole. Kind of a permanent existential anxiety.

Just 'keeping on doing', facing the daily grind and all the little things, taking care of kids - without falling down (because the cost could be catastrophe) is actually 'facing adversity'.
When was the last time Linux had a similar, reliably-remotely-exploitable kernel panic in the TCP/IPv4 stack? Pre-2000?
That was the practice not so long ago in the US too. But it is complex. Reusables were thicker and heavier than modern bottles, not just the super light high life bottle, but almost every bottle, I believe, and cans are so light in comparison.
> * silence all calls from unknown numbers, sending them directly to voicemail*

How about not sending them to voicemail?

I have literally _never_ used voicemail. I _will_ never use voicemail specifically because it has _always_ been riddled with spam. I even demanded T-mobile to disable my voicemail account. Not even six months later I started getting that annoying little icon on my phone again.
Maybe. Maybe not. Forensics are on it now.
The part about how it was "only one that Zaharie did not run as a continuous flight" makes it sound like at some point they found evidence that the co-ordinates which supposedly made up his simulation of the exact flight couldn't have actually come from the same simulated flight - and took this as more proof that it was in fact evidence of him rehearsing for it.

The ruling is that when you make a medical decision about a patient you have a physician/patient relationship. You no longer get to say “I was not present so that fact that I provided incorrect treatment instructions is irrelevant”.

If the doctors involved weren’t the ones responsible for allowing a patient to be transferred to the hospital maybe you could more reasonably claim you were giving advice.

But by denying the transfer to the hospital and misdiagnosing them, they were making (and effectively enforcing) those decisions.
Never, from what I can recall.
I agree completely.

The correct simplification to make is not explaining virtual memory or MMIO. Pretend we have nicely-acting linear address space. The computer is a mail-sorting octopus and when it runs out of hands it only has mailboxes to put things in. Still not a great analogy.

Everytime I start to hear "addresses are like real addresses, ways to find where something lives" I know it will be an explanation for people that want to understand them well enough to not use them.

It is also rough because some people try to explain pointers with Java. AP CompSci in american high schools is happy to try to explain pointers to Java users, it's not surprising people have a rough time!
I've found many pros have quite a bit of disagreement over these kinds of details, and that this varies quite a bit by region as well - often for good reason. For example, the framing style, climate, and available materials in one region many dictate a different way of doing things than in another.

Many sheetrockers join sheets on studs or joists, but that puts the edge onto the structure, and increases the likelihood that the joint will fail, particularly in the ceiling. It's actually better to join the sheets between structural members with a plywood or osb spline that floats with the wall. This moves the joint off of the structural member and also makes for a flatter (if not flat) joint.

Really high end sheetrockers will put up 2 sheets of drywall. The first is glued and screwed onto the structure. The 2nd is glued and screwed to the first layer. The screws are then removed from the outer layer when the glue sets. This makes getting a pop impossible, and makes the soundproofing a lot better.
Tips for Outcome-Driven Teams
I think part of the problem is that many popular languages now default to using two very different behaviours for elementary tasks like passing variables or parameters around, depending on whether the variable is a "reference type" or a "value type". Simple things like numbers have value semantics. Objects and whatever else works a bit like an object in your language have reference semantics. If you want a reference to a simple value like a number, you box it so the basic type is now wrapped in an object, or something equivalent. Maybe that's even a semi-automatic process that is done for you in some cases. Anyway, that's just how variables work, and the idea that in principle you could have a value of any data type or a reference to any data type doesn't even occur to someone who has learned this way.

Then you get to data structures, and you're trying to explain the fundamental difference between dense, buffer/array-like structures and sparse, graph/pointer-like structures, and there might be no concept of an underlying memory model where the difference is clear.

This has always seemed like a horribly ambiguous and inconsistent mental model to me, and there must surely have been quite a few bugs caused by programmers not clearly understanding the differences between value and reference semantics and exactly when each applies in their chosen language(s). And yet for reasons I can't understand, many of the popular languages today do seem to follow something close to this model.
If you live next to a harbor, sure. Lots of places in North America are not near the coast.
The article gives a bad summary of the actual question here https://www.gapminder.org/test-questions/how-many-children-w...

>In 1950 there were fewer than one billion children (aged 0-14) in the world. By 2000 there were almost two billion. How many do UN experts think there will be in 2100? 2bn 3bn or 4bn?

so it is asking about a present number.
I think it’s a good thing that you feel a bit unsettled. It shows you have the professionalism to know it was a bad plan, but you also had the knowledge to know sometimes a bad plan is the only plan you have. Don’t dwell on it though, that would be unhealthy since you already know the lesson of the experience.

There's a difference between knowing which class of algorithms to use or even which specific algorithm to lookup in a given situation and knowing exactly how to implement the specific pet algorithm of an engineer on a power trip without using reference materials. This kind of adversarial process is nothing more than a hazing ritual. Other industries think we're insane, and the vast majority of companies that do this style of interview just do it because they want to do what Google does not because they have any evidence it works.

>I also can't remember ever being asked to solve a problem whose solution would have merited publication in my lifetime, and I was born around the same time Unix was.

We've had different experiences then. I've definitely had to implement algorithms designed after 1971.
The issue is not the CIA. It has been incredibly successfully in its job since it was founded as the OSS in WW2. We do not hear of the successes as most of it is highly classified. There are some great books on older stuff they did in the Cold War out now that are worth reading.

The reality is we only hear about the screw ups and the illegal things because that news worthy in the 24/7/365 hype cycle we now live it.

The fact is that we as citizens have failed to provide our voices asking for proper guidance of the CIA. We the people think that TV shows like 24 are the reality and torture is okay because it works on TV and only happens to the bad guys. Society as a whole have allowed things to end up this way.

Tell me what really happened when we the public found out about the tap rooms at ATT colo or some of the stuff Wikileaks and Snowden showed? Where is the protest? I do not see the streets full of outrage. Where are the brave Americas standing up for their rights. We could learn from the people of Hong Kong at this point.

The fact is that as long as we can order from amazon and Facebook works no one cares anymore.

We get the government we deserve. Disbanding the CIA just moves the issue to the next agency.
Largely because you need to cover follow on medical bills incurred by malpractice, coupled with a failure to adequately restrict the harm from malpractice (ndas on settlements for instance work to cover up patterns of malpractice)

> More importantly, the data reject the bloat theory. Figure 8 shows spending shares in higher education. Contrary to the bloat theory, the administrative share of spending has not increased much in over thirty years. The research share, where you might expect to find higher lab costs, has fluctuated a little but also hasn’t risen much. The plant share which is where you might expect to find lazy rivers has even gone down a little, at least compared to the early 1980s.

...

> If bloat doesn’t work, what is the explanation for higher costs in education? The explanation turns out to be simple: we are paying teachers (and faculty) more in real terms and we have hired more of them. It’s hard to get costs to fall when input prices and quantities are both rising and teachers are doing more or less the same job as in 1950.

In Postgres, JSONB can be indexed in some pretty useful ways.

But generally speaking, at some point, sometimes you have to do the less ergonomic thing in the name of performance. I'm just of a mind to postpone that until it's worth the tradeoff. Often, you can architect in such a way that such a change won't cascade through the rest of your system.
Sure that happens, but you probably have access to internal documentation, a compiler, a REPL--something.

The issue with not being able to Google isn't Google specifically, it's the lack of all the tools you use to solve real problems.
A better analogy would be the coffee shop (as a physical building) versus the street address of the building. If you want to do anything in the coffee shop you have to go there, the pointer (address) tells you where to go.

And just like real world street addresses, you can't make blind assumptions about pointers.

The value may make logical sense, or it may be completely meaningless and you require direction from someone to find it.

You can't just write down a random address and expect a building to exist at it.

You can hold onto the street address for a coffee shop, put it in a notebook, then one day go to the address to find that the coffee shop was torn down and the street address is invalid.
Starting a new terminal with wsl1 takes so long? It takes less than 2 seconds on my machine. I guess if you have some file-intensive process, such as starting a rub/python interpreter to run a script that would slow things down due to the slow file access.

I use wsltty for the terminal, it's pretty minimal, but better than the windows terminal.
>If everybody stops being so greedy this is possible.

Problem is that we, as evolved creatures in a world of scarcity, are hoarders by... nature. Greed is just a morally misguided way of hoarding. So, waiting for people to stop being greedy is much more difficult than just making the right moral choices.
I agree the average person doesn’t know what it is, but I bet they would care if they did.

That doesn't make sense to me. Especially given the GHCQ's break down of Huawei gear finding that Huawei can't even do version control right (they had revisions of firmware with the same version id for the same hardware with different build characteristics), and magically reintroducing vulnerabilities from 2006. Personally I feel that Huawei gear would be ripe for exploitation and then misdirection.

I don't get why people are so hung up on proof though. There doesn't have to be proof. No one who I've talked to in the networking industry cares about proof (this includes myself). Hell China already bans companies at will. The only thing that matters is enough of a non-zero chance of Huawei releasing malicious firmware updates to select targets in the future. Judging by their inability to have firmware revisions that completely match in functionality who knows if they're already doing so at a smaller scale.
Or what if China will play dirty and devaluates CNY against USD to offset the tariffs? This will be extremely bad and potentially means another escalation to the trade war...

To me, the point of any close election is to warn society that a massive proportion of the population is very unhappy with the status quo. In some ways, it's irrelevant if there is meddling to influence single digit percentages -- the real problem is that those unhappy people need to be understood and policies built to support them.
If you're worried about tracking, just disable scripts and cookies on that domain. Much less tracking, and as a side effect, the paywall stops working.

CPI is difficult and flawed, but they do try to account for size. Soda is pretty consistent in size (12oz can), but, for example, yogurt which can come in a variety of sizes is added to the CPI per 8oz. The hard part is how you measure the quality change. The market is flooded with high end higher quality yogurts. Yogurt shelves in the grocery store look very different than they did 15 years ago before Chobani kicked off the Greek yogurt crazy, and completely different than 30 years ago before USDA organic certification.

Absolutely agree. I think everyone understands the relativity of perception when discussing "how hard things are" but that doesn't mean they put it into daily practice. It's very easy to get caught in your bubble.

Except they all seem to be part of the same company so I assume they have rules saying that the NP needs to give the Dr’s opinion more control over the decision. After all it sounded like they contacted multiple (of the company’s) drs and they said the same thing.

If they are part of the same network the dr probably had access to the charts, and if not I assume nurses who are required to call doctors can communicate the content of a chart.

It also makes no sense to say: NP you are required to contact a doctor to get permission to admit a patient, but if you think the doctor is wrong you should admit them anyway. If that isn’t the rule then you should save money by not having drs who only exist to answer the phone and trust you NPs to admit patients who need it.

LVMH are mostly luxury brands. They only do high-end and way above that.
