As a Christian I find other christian friends split on the topic of mindfulness. Some embrace mindfulness and some think it should be avoided. I am in the latter camp. I imagine the reason why is the spiritual nature of mindfulness which is highlighted by all the comments here.

Most days I use the Lord Jesus’s prayer to reflect and pray about the day before/ahead. It’s an important part of my life and well-being. I’m curious to hear from other christians who embrace mindfulness. It is an alien concept for me to reflect inwards without looking outside myself to God. How does mindfulness rest with your christian faith in this regard?

Don't let them. Use Firefox or Safari instead of Chrome or Edge.
Thing<A<B, C<D>, E>>

except for a different bracket syntax, it is the type level equivalent of:

Thing(A(B, C(D)), E)

There absolutely nothing unreadable with that. Mind you, I find <> brackets somewhat ugly, but that's subjective and plenty of languages have made the same choice.

To be more constructive, C++ templates have two major pain points: template specialization means that the template machinery is a full term rewriting engine, so arbitrary computations can be expressed in it. The other issue is that it is hard to specify template constraints (or concepts, it type classes or traits or whatever term you prefer).

A new language can eskew specialization (but note that Rust, that wants to compete in the same space as C++ has added, or is adding them), and there is no good reason not to have constraints in a new language (the design space is well explored).
I'm interested in learning about true generation algorithms. Can you point me in the right direction?
Hi,

- Yes, you are totally right. TextRank is an extractive method.
- Ah right. But we aren't storing any information on our servers, just showing selected sentences to the user.
- We select the top 5 sentences which have the highest relevancy to the article. I am not an expert in this field so not too sure if that's the best way. Just started with NLP a few days back and wanted to test it out by developing a small application.

Yes, it works on quite a few articles and but also there are some articles where it fails to give accurate results.

Ah nice, I would like to hear more about what you are working on. Let me know if I could contribute to it in some way.

Thank you again for your feedback.
I've tried several times to use Purescript to target web browsers. I got frustrated by Bower - it's especially hard to start a new project using tools that say "don't use me, I'm deprecated". There was a huge amount of fairly sloppy javascript boundary code. And - it turns out - I like laziness.I dunno, I wish I could run ghc code efficiently in a web browser. But even though I can't, I much prefer to run ghc code inefficiently in a web browser than run a language intended to facilitate binding to javascript's sloppy semantics.

When I tried using ps-concur or some other ps gui libraries, I didn't feel inclined to keep progressing. When I learnt reflex with ghcjs, I built stuff, and I kept finding new things I wanted to build.

The best way for a Haskell to target browsers at the moment is via ghcjs. Hopefully one day it'll be with a ghc-to-wasm compiler.

I have realised a long ago that Apple has for a long time now been working towards steering the Macintosh way from its open, Unix-based foundation.

I used to work with the old MacOS, long before OSX, and it was just the way they wanted it: a closed platform with a nice (for the time) user interface and giving Apple full control over what is being developed on it and how.

Dropping this platform for NeXTSTEP-based OS X was the right choice at the time it was made, when they needed a more advanced platform, and they needed it immediately. But the side effect was that it opened the Mac as a development platform, and Apple has since been trying to close it back, without affecting the existing users too hard.

The success of mobile/tablet market allowed them to build a new, closed platform, with precisely the features described above. After MacBook Air was first released I expected them to soon release an OSX-based tablet, but I have soon realised that it is not going to happen: instead of pushing Mac to the tablets, they will more and more push iOS to the Mac, until they have one uniform platform that will make it nearly impossible to develop on except if sanctioned by Apple.
Hi,

That's a very good suggestion. I didn't know it was that easy to build an extension for Firefox. I will publish it on the Mozilla store as soon as possible.

It appears that the device is only cool to the touch and does not generate any cool air, so it's not an air conditioner per se, more like an electric ice pack. The heat will presumably escape via the air vents at the back.
Abuse by users is subjective. Still, C++ templates make parsing undecidable.

It's worse than just a Turing-complete preprocessor like, say, Lisp macros. In C++ you cannot decide the type of the next token until you evaluate the (Turing-complete) templates.

This shows that the templates are at least a bit too powerful.
Not sure why this was downvoted, this is quite literally the case. "BitTorrent" as a company was sold to "Tron", a "blockchain" company making the same nonsensical and impossible claims as the rest of them. This one in particular was made famous by not even writing their 'white paper', but copying the text from another.

Hi,
We used a python library called newspaper to do it.
Overall the advice is pretty bad and the article doesn't even follow its own advice. Instead we get this crap that doesn't care about accessibility and loads images with javascript (3rd party javascript!):

<picture>
<source ...>
<img class="..."
src="data:... (placeholder, no image)"
data-sizes="..."
data-srcset="..."
data-lowsrc="..."
alt="..."
height="auto"
width="100%">
</picture>

Just don't use javascript for images and static content. It's better for SEO, for accessibility, it respects people's privacy, it works much faster.
The money is different because you're actually lending it to the bank. The government guarantees you'll get it back (up to some limit) in most countries, but that's why they can afford to operate this business.

You are not loaning the valuables in a safe deposit box to the bank, they're just storing them, which is why it costs money. Maybe it should cost more money.

Thanks for the clarification. Their comment read to me like they were calling BitTorrent “a blockchain company”, but I guess they were referring to Tron?

It would be weird to characterize BitTorrent as “a blockchain company” just because they’ve been sold to another company that is doing blockchain.

I don't understand what is so hard to get right about the RNGs of these machines. Any of-the-shelf cryptographically secure random number generator should cheaply and efficiently do the trick. Seeding? Combine the current time from the RTC with a machine specific key programmed at the factory, and/or use a hardware RNG. Linux+openSSL does the job. In fact, my i386 from the 90's could do an adequate job. That's of the top of my head, without doing any research. Using an algorithm from Knuth for these things would be completely irresponsible.

I must be missing something here, they can't be this grossly incompetent while gambling millions.

Hi,

The goal is the same.

TLDR This uses a different algorithm. It is a side project I developed to test out NLP.

Although there are some web apps out there, that allow you to summarize an article, there really isn't any useful chrome extension that does the job well. TLDR This comes with an accompanying chrome extension as well.

Not sure why you think this is odd. Visit google.com and witness image objects used for issuing tracking GET requests.
I didn't know this, thanks! However it reminds me of something similar that happened ~25 years ago in a UK town where I lived.

We had a long power cut that went on for many days. The supermarkets shut at first because, why not. As things went on they had customers to serve so they had to sell, I remember that tesco set up a table at the store entrance with the shop manager and a few assistants. You told them what you wanted, the assistants got it. They took cash only [0]. It worked.

Tangential to the article, what would happen today? People are carrying much(?) less cash, card only point of sales terminals are blooming, I just 2 days ago went to top up a spare mobile phone and the vodaphone store told me they'd no longer take cash.

Notes & coins don't need electricity to be acceptable. We may be creating a very fragile alternative because things like comms and power look increasingly reliable so why lean on them ever harder, but they will go down someday, that I guarantee, and the harder we lean on these things, they harder they will drop us when they vanish.

And we may have short power cuts due to human nature but there are things like solar storms. We know they are coming but aren't prepared for them. So what then?

It may seem surprising that a corporate executive is able to read and write, but research shows that literacy among CEOs is rapidly increasing. According to the IMF, executive literacy rates are on target to pass 50% by as early as 2022. Of course, there are still many challenges to overcome, but I think we can agree that Jeff's story here is an inspiration to many around the world.

I think Bower was just a "good enough" solution when Purescript was initially implemented. Afaik, people are moving away from it in favor of spago [0] or psc-package [1].

JS' semantics are pretty much opaque when staying in Purescript. Of course all bets are off when using the FFI, but then again the same goes for GHCJS.

One major thing in favor of GHCJS is the ability to share code between backend and frontend, but that's not a concern when e.g. the backend is written in another language anyway.

EDIT: Also, Purescript on the backend (targeting node or native code) is slowly becoming a thing as well, as this is what this submission is about :)

Out of curiosity, have you ever used Traefik? At work we're using Docker Swarm (because we needed more power than a single server could give us but Kubernetes seemed excessive) with Traefik and it works beautifully.
However, from the article it seems most cases are not traditional breaches of security, but just the bank fumbling things up and disposing of the material by mistake

Ask HN: Best Lisp for software development?
Hi HNers, I've built a lot of software in Python and Ruby over the years and recently, I've become interested in Lisp but am unsure which Lisp/Scheme variant to learn for building production grade software.

Ideally, I would like to learn the most modern one i.e. robust package management, tooling, ecosystem, etc. Really the main requirement is that I would like to be able to build production ready software with a Lisp that I can use at and for my company.

I've looked into Clojure and like a lot about it, but don't want to have to dig into the Java world. Is there any alternative out there? Any suggestions are appreciated :)

> But we aren't storing any information on our servers, just showing selected sentences to the user.

If this is in reference to the copyright comment, it doesn't matter -- you're still transmitting/redistributing the content, which is what matters. One way to get around this is to ship the code and have the code execute on the user's machine (i.e. what you're presumably doing with the extension).

Swimming is a potential deadly sport - you could drown.

With this in mind, I learned the technical aspects of swimming which forced me to focus on the here and now. If you are not focussed you make mistakes which can lead to swallowing water.

I did this in order to swim longer and faster. I finally grasped the highly meditational aspect of swimming and enjoy it.

Even though I prefer running over swimming nothing comes close to swimming in regards to meditation.
How would this be much different to a GPU running over the PCIE bus?
I see it as a framework. It's easier to get into a relaxing state by following known principles than just sitting in a chair and waiting for it to happen.

As long as you don't add a value judgment on top (my way is THE Way) I don't see the issue. A bit like how religions are frameworks for faith. You could make up your own gods and rituals but there is something reassuring in following existing norms with set principles and communities.

You can see the same pattern emerging everywhere. Gym workouts are the same, you can do random things until it feels right or you can follow one of the main school of thoughts and get it 90% right on the first try.

For example I always thought hypnosis and affirmations were 100% useless and borderline hippie bullshit. One day I tried a random hypnosis video on YouTube and it got me in a state of relaxation I never reached before. Might be placebo, but in the end it does the job.
(Former Christian my some standard here)

Some would argue that meditation, mindfulness and prayer are not necessarily different.

Prayer - from the angle of communion with God - can be a two way street. You speak, you listen.

With mindfulness and many other meditations, you listen a lot. You can call what you're listening to yourself. Or God. Or Oneness. Or The Universe. Whatever it is, it helps you turn the lens of your introspection away from the noise and towards something quieter, deeper, and perhaps enlightening.

Don't forget that several monks from the 5th century to the present day promoted meditation ( eg https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Christian_meditat... )

Even in the bible, all the times people went off to the desert to commune with God, I bet they were meditating and practicing mindfulness.

Do you have some additional thoughts on what this "something completely different" is? I'm a Norwegian and follow the political developments in Sweden with great interest, and sometimes a degree of morbid fascination.

I get the impression that, among other things, there is a push towards greater surveillance and tracking of everybody's spending behaviors, coupled with a political correctness craze that seems to divert the attention from more central issues. Would be curious if you had any thoughts on the powers that drive these developments, or whether there is anything related that's not too obvious.

The Potential of Perspicuous Writing
I think your judgemental reaction against the intended substance in my comment just proves the point.

The comment I offered was an illustration that I found helpful in clarifying the Buddhist concept of non-self.

In my book omniscience need not be some kind of superpower, even a sincere effort to comprehend and understand clearly, without heavy overlays, is on track. Learning to pierce those overlays with patience has never led to disappointment.

Unless perhaps you were thinking I wrote omnipotence?

As for the traffic examples, having spent a while in countries where nobody really bothers to sanction other motorists, motorcyclists, pedestrians, push carts, cows, etc, strangely it works out okay. It’s almost like the drivers stopping to blow their horn and yell “asshole” create exponentially more problems further back up the web of traffic, than had they refrained from doing that.
