No, but surprisingly frequently this property holds: if your function is generic enough, there is only one (or a small number) of possible implementations that type check.

This assumes giving the government more money will solve the problems most individuals face. The problem is, the wealthy will survive higher taxes, but sooner or later we run out of their money and they inevitably have to tax the middle class and ultimately everyone.

I thought most equipment rental places do this. Also, clearly this is a high-fraud risk business line, why aren't there safeguards in the credit approval process? It's not hard to do these days.
It's more than just log management. SIEMs usually implies a case management system and some kind of rules based system for correlating different events into a case/incident, thus the name.
But it reduces information overload! Improved UX!

I've made so many mistakes because I couldn't tell something overflowed. The scrollbar doesn't have to be big and ugly but it should still be present. At a minimum give a visual indicator that there's more content and then I know to try scrolling to see if it works.

It's a stupid UX fad.

Bitcoin SV is most definitely bitcoin.

It is simply the original bitcoin protocol, ie. with all the stupid things that were added to "BTC" since 2009 removed.

... that makes it infinitely scalable and useful like bitcoin was supposed to be, not just for money, for data storage, and for computation.

No Segwit
No RBF
No block size limit
No limits on scripts or data sizes

BTC is useless in comparison... and the 'ad hominem' will only cover this up for so long.

I suspect this is a legal term that is the key to absolving them of any liability in situations like this. In the article it was echoed by the equipment owner's insurance company when they denied the claim.
How many young devs have you met who you were sure were going to wash out? Many of them got the degree to have a comfortable life, not because it felt like a calling.

All of those people are going to regret struggling through the CS program only to find out that the programming problems in school were trivial and the real stuff is messy and confusing as hell.

I tell anyone who asks that they should get some sort of programming job as an undergrad. If you can't hack it, you can get some other degree in 5 years. If you can, you'll learn so much more from your classes, because you'll have the practical bits down pat and you can focus on the theoretical.

One of my friends got a job junior year. I would ask him how long the homework took him and he would say something like 2 hours. Bullshit. It took me 10 and there were people in the lab a lot longer than me. There is no fucking way that's true. I stopped asking him because it just pissed me off. Senior year I got a job working at the same place, and within a couple months I was down to 4-5 hours. Ok, maybe he wasn't bragging. Maybe practice really is that important.

By the time I left, with maybe a couple thousand hours of programming under my belt, I had one class with a shortage of machines (3D cards). I would sit in my apartment writing code in a terminal window on one of those machines, essentially blind, for two hours. When I'd get a clean compile I'd go over to the lab to debug for 40-75 minutes. Because doing the homework was just doing the homework, like a math class, instead of a huge production.

Then I'd go back to work and stare at a complex memory corruption bug for 5 hours...
Based on the current results, I'd say it works very effectively. It's almost impossible to find the article about the 11 botched surgeries.
> Brokerage customers keep ~10% of their assets in cash. The 200 basis point spread between cash in brokerage accounts and money market funds or insured bank accounts [...] is equivalent to a 20 bps asset management fee across the portfolio.

Could someone break this down a bit more? I'm trying to grok the point, but don't have the intuition. Where is the "200 basis point spread" coming from? Why is it equivalent to a 20 bps management fee?
This is one of the many reasons why I love Vanguard. They default by putting all of your brokerage account money into their money market fund.
Everybody makes mistakes. Which makes GDPR a recipe to hand over whatever remains of the Internet to only corporations that afford paying for them.

A more specific proposal to consider: Congress could revert the 2005 decision that made private student loans much harder to discharge in bankruptcy. I don't know if that would be enough for the problem to then resolve itself, as I don't know what percentage of the student loan debt is made of private vs federal loans, but it's something specific and targets a particular feedback loop.

Mental illness exists mostly due to controllable factors. Those who don't know of or understand these factors consider it a mystery that requires medical management. Medical management is legitimately required due to evidence of genetic or structural damage only. It is quite overused otherwise.

Here are many of the somewhat avoidable factors that result in mental illnesses:
(1) insufficient sleep
(2) insufficient physical activity
(3) serious infections
(4) excessive stress
(5) high BP
(6) high bad cholesterol
(7) insufficient omega-3s
(8) unhealthy processed food intake and/or SAD diet
(9) vitamin and mineral insufficiencies
(10) side effects of prescription drugs, not limited to PPIs and anticholinergics
(11) narcotic use or abuse

If you fix the above lifestyle factors, there would be far fewer cases of "mental illness".
Rent controlled duplexes are already protected by the regulations that were violated here. You can't remove rent-controlled units without a permit!

Obviously some onlookers don't understand current laws and don't understand the proposed legislation. It's important for them to know that their trust in the legislator to do this for them is misplaced.

If it's the case I've seen [1], it wasn't someone sending a little mailing list newsletter to people who have opted in, it was someone sending complaints and CC'ing everyone they could get an e-mail address of. The article I saw also makes it sound very much like he was told to stop repeatedly.

Seems like an appropriate fine. Or do you think I should be allowed to collect 150 e-mail addresses, then e-mail them out to all 150 other people, after some of them told me not to do that?

I would say ~30% is not "fairly small". Also that 30% predominately works circa 9-5 and is disproportionately responsible for traffic congestion.

Plus, it's unclear how those industries get split. For example utilities, trade, healthcare, and leisure/hospitality all have a large number of office jobs. And cities have a higher concentration of office jobs than rural areas. I would be willing to bet that in most medium-large sized cities, half of all jobs could be done remotely.
>SF. Housing/homelessness crisis? Do nothing

The city is attempting to address this very complicated problem and invest in shelters / affordable housing. A lot of wealthy home owners protest when they attempt to build housing for the poor (in their backyard). I'd argue the homeless problem in SF is more of a national / United States issue than SF specifically.

>Terrible roads which are worse than Chicago

I haven't been to Chicago in like half a decade but I don't think the roads in SF are terrible?

>Horrendous traffic? Do nothing

Traffic isn't bad unless you spend all of your time commuting in the East Bay, the Peninsula, or you pick terrible driving times on the weekend. During the work week the traffic within the city outside of FiDi is usually fine (which is most of the city). Outside of SF proper traffic is definitely pretty bad though, especially in the East Bay.

I can usually leave on a Saturday at 8am, get to upper North Bay (Novato, etc), crank out a 5+ mile hike, grab lunch, and be back at home by 11:30am without hitting any traffic. People who decide to sleep in and leave at 11am definitely hit a ton of traffic (because that's a terrible driving time).

>Agree with all other comments, this is stupid. Vaping isn't great. But banning it without any other options is...ultra dumb.

I don't really get it, I imagine it's more of a jab towards Juul than anything else.

According to the actual ordinance itself¹, according to a 2018 National Academy of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine report, there's moderate evidence that e-cigarette use actually increases the frequency and intensity of cigarette smoking in the future.

Also, SF did in fact ban flavored tobacco products last year, but it seems that wasn't sufficient to combat the rise in e-cigarette usage among SF high school students.

In any case, it seems the ordinance doesn't actually ban e-cigarettes. It bans e-cigarettes that have not received FDA premarket approval, which is required by law for any new tobacco product. So basically, the city is saying the FDA isn't doing their job, and so the product that shouldn't be allowed to be sold in general without this approval is now banned in SF until it receives this approval.

No it shouldn't. It'd be nice if they did, but it's not their responsibility and it's a form of tax.

It'd be enough if they added a disclaimer that any video may be a fake. Which we already knew, so even that is unnecessary.

Why single out YouTube? Why not all sites that have videos?
Or why not force every user on the Internet to register their true ID and state whether the video they are uploading anywhere has been faked?
There's nothing difficult to follow in GDPR... unless you're specifically trying to continue collecting too much personal data while trying to skirt the law.

Other panes in that settings screen require scrolling too.

I just checked. There are many options and it's obvious you can scroll on that pane.

The only deceptive thing might be having it at the bottom of the list.

edit: It may be a weird place for that option too thinking about it.

Here's a picture of how it looks by default. I think the sentry mode text and how it's grayed out implies you can scroll.

Ask HN: Is it normal to have no explicit expectations?
I work in a non-technical supervisory role at a 30~ person software startup. My past work experience is all from Fortune 100 companies.

My direct manager is one of the original cofounders. I will often receive delegated projects verbally/over email and given a timeframe. Example: "can your team get me an X report on X in 3 days?". If I ask for specifications (e.g how far back do you want the report to capture, will you need X subcontractors included in the report, etc) I'm hit with hostility or told to "figure it out, that's your job".

Is it normal to have no clearly defined expectations when you're given a project/task?

I've been doing this for about 12 months now and it seems like I'm constantly flying in the dark. 50% of my vague projects are met with excitement and shock and the other 50% is screamed at as a waste of time/wrong.

I try to lay out my expectations clearly when delegating the sub-tasks from these projects (e.g can you generate an export of X data over the past 12 months for X report?"). Is this something that's not required the higher you go in management?

That's just a reductionist stance and when you follow that line of thinking to its conclusion then it would mean being illegal to record anything outside of your own house which is ridiculous because people need to film their kids going to the beach or take selfies in the mall.

TBF sales tools probably come under the most scrutiny at just about every company for price/value. Companies that sell tools to sales can get high margins but can't price themselves above their value.

Edit: Not trying to be flippant, I really think people should promote this. If some produce gets regularly left behind, let people come in to pick it up and either use or distribute it.
I'm not saying it's impossible. I'm saying it's just less likely. The admissions statistics for these universities show that. After all, they really only admit transfer students to fill in for students who dropped out of their school. They base class size solely on the freshmen class.

In your case, I don't think you were applying as a transfer student. You were also not going to your local CC. Those universities are a higher tier than your local CC.

In the case of "running start" the whole premise is that you have 2 years of college completed when you graduate. Not that you spent 2 years doing college courses to just restart from level 1. You can do that but I think it's a waste of resources and will unnecessarily crowd local community colleges. And it did where I went to community college. I had to deal with a bunch of 14-17 year old high school age kids. >=25% of the student body was high schoolers with some of my classes at 50%+. Gets kind of annoying when you have to constantly deal with those kids still being kids.
That amount of wasted produce is probably very dependent on what kind it is. A mountain of wasted bananas might be a blip on the radar in the grand scheme of things.

Bananas are some of the most fickle to deal with in the supply chain, because the sweet spot where they are usable is only a few days. Meanwhile, the oranges from our neighbors tree can last for weeks when stored in our pantry.
Some people attract more bug bites than others. My general impression is that hormone levels and blood sugar both impact this outcome. To the degree that blood sugar can be moderated by diet, staying on top of blood sugar issues might be helpful.

I don't know about ticks, but my military spouse had good results from eating a match head once a day to discourage chiggers when he was in the field in Georgia. He later replaced this policy with taking garlic supplements.

I bought his supplements. He specifically asked for the smelly garlic pills, not the ones that advertise low odor.

From what I gather, his co-workers were insanely jealous of his general lack of miserable bug bites in spite of laying in the same grass as them. He was very introverted and closed mouth. Unlike me, he was entirely disinclined to helpfully blather on about such things to people unlikely to believe him.

He was probably wiser than me in some sense. I would likely get a lot less flak if I didn't remark on such things myself, kept it to myself and privately gloated.

The "200 basis point spread" comes from the difference between the very low or non-existent interest paid on the cash in brokerage accounts and the rates the brokerage can earn by lending that money out basically risk-free. If you keep 10% of your assets in cash, a 200 bp interest spread becomes effectively a 20 bp management fee on your assets.
Bananas are sort of a special case because by the time they hit peak sugar content they’re heavily mottled. So, especially for baking, they’re often best to use right before they go bad.
That doesn't give me good vibes. They're surely going to attempt to monetize it at some point. What's the benefit for digitalocean to providing a 'free' service?
Libra intends to use Proof of Stake. This means that the initial members will "stake" some amount of Libra and now all transactions can only be validated by them. You as an individual can't validate any new transaction. The assumption is that because the PoS validator has a huge stake in this currency, they will behave rationally or otherwise they would devalue their own stake. The trust here is completely centralized and is a rich get richer model. If FB or PayPal or a member doesn't want to add your transaction, they can completely block you. They control what is true.

Bitcoin uses Proof of Work. Consensus is decentralized. Anyone can do some "work" (hashing in this case). If they find the magic number to get the right hash, they get rewarded by the Bitcoin protocol itself. This is also the only way new Bitcoins are created. It is only when one of these magic numbers gets found that transactions get added to the Bitcoin ledger (every 10 minutes). The rule is that the longest ledger chain wins so everyone is running in parallel. You don't need to own any Bitcoin to do mining to get "free" Bitcoin. The trust is decentralized (in terms of control) and no one can prevent anyone else from validating Bitcoin transactions as long as you follow the same rules as everyone else.
Just heard about this today at reinforce conf. Looks pretty interesting and integrates well with cloud logs or on prem. Definitely going to look into it more.

Grow up you myopic trolls. Bitcoin is a system, not a ticker symbol. Bitcoin SV is node implementation of the original system.
