I've never used Hypercard and I just can't fathom the love for it.

If nothing matches Hypercard, why don't people use it (or some opensource copy) of it? So many seem enthralled by it but the reality is no one seems to want to bring it back.
It was apparently gone before Jobs got back, but the same point still stands. The people who put together accounting systems and the like in Hypercard were unusual in being willing (and having the time) to put forth the effort of building anything complex. They're almost certainly the same people who would have put something together in GW-Basic, because they needed what they were building.

I'm a professional programmer, and I've got enough in my plate to be happy to let clients build some portion of things. But they almost entirely won't, even when given software designed to let them do just that. I've never encountered any sort of form-builder or report-generator or whatever that was designed to work for clients "without needing a programmer" where clients didn't end up asking programmers to do all the form-building, report-designing, anyway.

It's like they have jobs of their own to do or something. It's like division of labor makes sense and is inevitable in any non-tiny organisation.

Back when everything was on paper, a technology virtually everyone could access by reading and writing (or typing), lots of people still had specialized jobs based around creating and organizing documents within organizations. Hell, most people are perfectly able to clean and vacuum, but beyond a certain size of 9-to-5 organisation, places hire janitors.
Not a real researcher, but perhaps randomized trials could help?
Part 2 – Conventional Methods for Text Classification
NBER is not peer reviewed and one should mention that when citing articles.

Even peer reviewed articles are often done incorrectly and even in high impact journals.
They do, it's just fragmented. Things like Excel/VB, Quickbase, Airtable, Tableux, etc.
There are a lot of companies working on something similar. But I hate to disappoint everyone thinking that this will mean the end of herbicides, it will not.

But there are a lot of crops, vegetables mostly, that are hand weeded. It's going to replace a lot of migrant labor. The main reason it won't replace herbicides will be cost. I'm not even certain that it would make economic sense right now for organically grown corn and soybeans.

There also may be problems with it in the Midwest. In California they turn on the water when they need it. What happens if it rains for three weeks in Illinois and the machine can't enter the field? Will it be able to remove fifteen inch tall weeds as easily as those a quarter inch tall? How fast will it operate under those conditions? If I have 2500 acres in that situation the weeds might be five feet tall by the time the machine gets to the last fields.

But if someone makes a successful business of commercial weed removal then like all tech the cost will come down over time, perhaps opening up the much wider market.
Question: Write the command that reads the file that has the name (text.txt) and shows only one page each time you hit space and it allows you to explore the file back and forward.

Your answer:
more text.txt

Correct answer:
less text.txt
I don't remember the name, but the teacher for the class was a famous nonfiction author John McPhee[0], and I believe you needed to apply, or win a lottery to get in the class.

Sky Credit Solution improved my credit
It is very imperative I tell how I moved up the echelon, few months back I was at my lowest point because I had medical bills that needed to be paid, I also had credit card debts, hard inquiries and many items in collections so I found it difficult accessing a loan. My wife told me about a firm she read testimonies about online, we contacted them and on God my credit was repaired in 1 week and 3 days. They said my story touched them and they had to work overtime to ensure I was back on my fee. They cleared my credit card debts. Boosted my score and removed the inquiries and collection. SKY CREDIT SOLUTION is actually setting the pace for other credit repair companies and I advise you contact them as soon as possible. Call/text: (620) 399 6316, Email them at SKYCREDITSOLUTION247@GMAIL.COM. Thanks for your audience.

> It's another to have request body fully parsed by a caching middleware layer in a non-idempotent non-cacheable request.

As far as I understand it you can use the request body directly as a caching key. No need to parse it. If you request exactly the same thing there’s no need to re-request it.
Well, you either store it securely or have someone else do it for you. With the caveat that no amount of security systems and safes are going to be 100% effective against all manner of theft, accident, and natural disaster. In addition to having insurance, you just have to evaluate the options and make your trade offs.
> but those 18K do a lot more than NPM

This is so hilariously wrong it's actually shocking it was written?
May as well plug a similar article I wrote like 10 years ago now: https://procyonic.org/blog/duckspeak-vs-smalltalk/

I actually passed a few emails back and forth with Alan Kay for this.

I short version of this piece appeared as a letter to the editor in the New Yorker, too.
Not sure why the NSA would squander all the positive publicity of identifying those GRU officers that killed Skripal. OTOH, you could also argue that not stopping them at the border was a failure.
well given the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Replication_crisis I think it's healthy to question psych experiment results. I think you'd want good evidence that this effect can be measured repeatedly and in different contexts.
Indeed, traditionally more doesn't go backward. It's the first line of prose in the less(1) manpage: "Less is a program similar to more (1), but which allows backward movement in the file as well as forward movement."
Because newer copies don’t include the nostalgia that’s one of the primary drivers for people’s admiration.
If Unity worked out well then Godot could be a good choice. It’s conceptually simpler but is still very powerful.
The parent is talking about an integrated environment for development, where that integrated environment is indistinguishable from the language itself.

Examples of this include elisp and emacs, smalltalk and squeak, and to a lesser extent visual studio and C#.

There have been relatively few ecosystems so integrated. Java and Javascript/html/electron apps are notably not like that at all. There is no one "the" environment for coding those, simply several very popular ones.
Which is why I place a high price point on my work actually being something I like working on and care about the end result of.

Spending that much time of your life on something you don't for a bit more money... it doesn't feel worthwhile.
Do people in FAANG make 250-1M in London, for example?
Binance's Next IEO Evidences the Superiority of STP's Micro Token Offerings
I sometimes wonder if the American healthcare system and the UK housing market aren't deliberately kept expensive for much the same reason.
Confirmation bias is another classic.

Affects everyone but me.
Workplaces are a frappe of personality disorders and mental illness. People who were raised to be polite, people who weren't, and sprinkle in one psychopath and one or two sociopaths per one hundred people. Think about all the crazy people you've ever known? They all cause just as much trouble at work as in their personal lives, and they all have to work somewhere.

Even relatively well-intentioned people are usually insufferable. To say nothing of power politics, purposefully toxic environments, etc.

Politeness is the lubricant of social relationships, but rudeness is a powerful signaler.

I am normally polite, but unafraid to be rude or aggressive when politeness fails. Most often, rudeness indicates some portion of the social contract has not been upheld (treat me fairly, and I shall do so). Is it wrong for an employee to be rude to someone who is secretly undermining them? To a boss whose using them?

Rudeness is simply a social signal. I think it is more stressful to be polite all the time.

I could write a book on the crazy shs I've had to work with.
By your estimate, how many millions of Americans have disappeared in Guantanamo?

Difference of several orders of magnitude, right?
That was a blast from the past and a fun read.
Yeah, a handful of these tripped me up as well. I got:

Question: Write the command that you use to move into your home directory '~'

Your answer: cd

Correct answer: cd ~

The man pages specify that cd moves into the current user's $HOME directory if called without arguments, but I'm sure there's some mystic difference between cd $HOME and cd ~ in certain cases.
What other industry offers 75-175k as the "lower 95%"?

This outlook is overly cynical and gate-keepy imo. Not sure what evidence supports that you have to be a faang eng to be safe from a recession. If a recession hit I doubt half the top tier jobs would continue exist anyway.
Thanks, that was my response- we're setting up a meeting them & some advisors to go through what my results have been and whether that warrants additional compensation. What do you mean by "a run around"?
Part of the problem is the bounty for attacking NPM packages is high. You get a high profile exploit and lots of people talking about it, or you can even get some of your evil JS code running on thousands of sites on the back end or the front end.

Compounded by the fact there is no decent base class library for JS like you'd get for .NET [0]. Want to do anything you could do by default with .NET BCL? Like open a url, save a file (with nice api) or parse some XML?

Then npm i ... it is. And hope it doesn't pull in an exploit.

As a mitigation I recommend people consider writing their own code (NIH) for simple stuff not npm i all the things.

[0] I'm comparing to .NET but same could be said of Java/Python/Ruby etc.
Same with diet studies which is why mechanisms inside the body are important to study and identify.
> So what do you label someone who does most of the work while other contribute little to nothing?

Most of the time: the guy that’s going to leave an overly clever undocumented, unmaintable mess. Bonus points if it’s in a language that none of the rest of the company uses.

Awesome. You can now run PyPy on Rpi!
Neither a nor b.

Take the wholesale price of the product, add rent, delivery, payment processing, in store labour and all the other expenses involved in running a store, then add 1-2%. That gives you the price you pay in store. That formula hasn't changed since self checkout was introduced, but the cost figures have changed.
Its actually mostly about not being labled well (or at all) and being to short, sound qualitys not mega good.

I suspect this is a labour of love by a Cat Otaku, who wasn't concerned with views subs etc.

Most views from yahoo come from being in the recommendations side bar.
I think most cats are the same way. I trained my Siamese cat to do some classic dog tricks like sit, shake, roll over, etc, and he picked them up without much trouble. That said, he's got to be in the mood to listen or it's like I'm not even talking.
That's an interesting take, I do see some logic to getting such a significant stake- but I doubt that would be considered. A lot of the value they attribute to pending patents that have come out of the lab
Great but where are the Latin originals?
The west's current monetary policy very much hurts retirees living on dwindling fixed incomes. There ought to be at least some reward associated with savings, even without taking a risk to the principal.
> Some of this guy's lack of popularity is down to his videos not being labelled well, but I think most of it is really due to the fact no one's promoting his work at all.
Because nowadays, that's pretty much the only way to succeed in any form of content creation. * Getting people/companies/sites with thousands or millions of viewers to share your work, and using their audience to bootstrap your own.

Isn't this one of the reasons for recommendation engines--to surface content that users might like, as opposed to the traditional way where he who spends the most on promotion wins? Why are all these tech companies investing $billions into AI and recommendations if simple payola is still what drives popularity? Whenever an article points out the negative effects of recommendation engines (filter bubbles, etc.), someone always says "Well, AI is better at surfacing long-tail content that would never get promoted." Yet, here we are in 2019 and content creators are still relying on promotion to get views.
"But that is literally the mystery about the contemporary economy. The Fed has been printing money like mad with "quantitative easing", with extremely low interest rates, and Congress helping them along with massive tax cuts, but this is having basically 0 impact on inflation rates."

One conclusion that you might draw is that we are in a massively deflationary environment. So much so that all of the inflation tools running at full-tilt only keep us in place.

Among other things, birth rates in rich, developed countries have been dropping for decades and are below replacement rate in many of them. Does that sound inflationary to you ?
As a Japanese language learner, I must say I have no trouble at all reading Sato's kanjis. Surprisingly enough!
I live in Tokyo and I use the Nippori station at least once a month. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to see Sato's work, so far :( I'll be aware.
Honestly I'm a bit surprised they don't use a more mature, fully managed solution. They can't have so much traffic to not justify getting some traditional relational database (like Oracle).
Not really officially. Raspbian still doesn't support AArch64.
I would argue that Visual Basic on Windows was similar to HyperCard for Mac!

It also led to a great number of “regular folks” making “forms” and adding code. And VBX allowed people in Excel to do stuff.

Also don’t forget AppleScript. And now on iOS we have Shortcuts and Workflow too.
That's not a reason to avoid selling any units on Amazon. The only brands this may be relevant to is very high end luxury brands, some of which avoid Amazon sales for that reason.
Yes exactly.

My own take is that Apple should have made a "Hypercard"-like thing the "top layer" of a new operating system. In other words, the entire desktop/windows/buttons interface to the main OS would be itself scripted in Hypercard.

Smalltalk takes this a step further of course by making the whole operating system a live environment. The very UI vocabulary one uses can also double as "programming"
Basically if they make excuses and are not willing to take any actual, definite action soon. "We'll look at this in a couple months." "We'll address this after you finish X." A smooth talker can stall for years.
What do you propose should be done?
This is called "QE for people", or "helicopter money", and economists know about this idea. It's still deep in the fringes, but in my opinion we can see this happen within our lives.

I'm interested that this article was posted by kungfudoi to Hacker News in the afternoon 18 days ago (not on a Saturday morning) and garnered 2 points and zero comments. This posting misrepresents the title/headline of the article and acquires 33 comments and 42 points.
I bumped into the article today and was about to post it, but noticed that it had already been posted. Perhaps I should follow pseudolos's lead, and post it anyway. My earlier impression was "don't repost", and "don't rewrite titles or headlines."

Now I look smart, right?
"Chaser was taught to understand sentences containing a prepositional object, verb and direct object."

I would have never believed this if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes. A friend has a golden retriever that I was playing with one day, and I asked him to get me a stick. He did, but it wasn't the stick I was thinking of, so I just off hand said, "no, not that stick, the one by the rock." and damn if that dog didn't drop it and go get the one by the rock. So I said, "put that stick with the other stick." Bam, done. I was stunned. I told my friend and he said, "oh, yeah, not surprised. He's smart." Now, maybe he didn't fully understand the sentences, and was simply understanding my body language and watching my eyes, movements, etc for clues, but even if so... dang.

Now, my dimwitted sweetheart of a pup often gets confused just between "sit" and "down", but I love her anyway :)
Same. Not quite 25 years, but 20+. I've worked with assholes who thought they were the top performers, but I've never worked with top performers who were assholes. It's part of what makes them assholes- to them, it's just some heroic narrative about how they're no-nonsense 10xer straight shooters who get things done and don't tolerate fools, but what they're oblivious to is how much different that looks from the outside looking in. How other people see them is very different from how they see themselves, but part of their identity is intentionally rooted in not thinking about that. Nobody sees anyone's internal monologues or perceptions of the world around them or their heroic life narratives that they tell themselves about themselves, they only see someone who thinks they've magically earned the right to be a jerk based on their perception of their own awesomeness, which (at least in my experience) they aren't.
There's victim-blaming and there's victim-playing. They're both real phenomena, and I wouldn't want to assume I was looking at one and not the other without having a closer look.
This is the same as Anselm's argument. If the Lord of Hosts is not scarier to you than Pennywise, you have not thought very hard about the implications of an omnipotent, omniscient being. He isn't going to spook you like a movie clown; no, He is far more existentially terrifying, as befits Someone beyond Whom no greater horror can be conceived. And, after all, "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom."

The more common formulation of your counterargument is something like imagining the most perfect possible ice cream sandwich, to which I would also say, is God not better than any ice cream sandwich? Are the splendors of heaven not far beyond any earthly dessert?
Keep in mind that's not exactly true. There are gateways that can be used such as "The Things Network": https://www.thethingsnetwork.org/
I think they mean code - just remove all files that your program doesn't touch. With something like JS, this should be doable in cases because of the way libraries tend to be designed.

The equivalent in a compiled language would be to strip unused symbols from the binary.
You sound exhausting to be around. Your comment about burnout is either a humble brag or an admission that this isn’t even working for you.

You get one life. Stop glorying in being a jerk. If you’re as brilliant as you say you are then humility and kindness will make you even more brilliant.
Yeah, or I could comment on a tweet linking to an article with "@TLDR" and your bot would comment the summary.

I really thank you for giving it a try and for your comments. I should say that the user's answer could be correct in many cases. I am working on a more advanced answer normalizing feature using some regex expressions which will NOT be a default option. From my point of view, it is better to memorize one pattern of the command that does the work instead of focusing on searching how to use the command.

It's even worse in Japan. The BOJ is not only buying bonds, it's straight up buying equity ETFs. Still no inflation.
Thanks for your comment. I appreciate it a lot. I will try to figure out why this happened and solve the problem.
Except you did make websites in a web browser originally.

Netscape was going to have a built in editor, but they ran out of time, was added in Netscape 3 Gold, and there by default in 4.
There's really no excuse for being rude in the workplace. Please get help instead of trying to justify it.

If multiple people have made HR complaints "behind your back", you are not competently performing your job. (This directly affects your claimed 3X performance because you drag down your coworkers.)
Apple also obsoletes hardware without making any transition or major software or hardware changes. I can develop for latest android is on my 2009 macbook but not for latest Mac or iOS.
I can probably install latest MacOS in virtual box on 2009 macbook but not on actual hardware...
Also it's sometimes annoying how much more they understand than you want them to. "Bring the ball to get a treat" turned very quickly into "if you don't have a treat in hand, I'm not going to bring you anything (just walk away a bit, sit on the exact thing you asked for and stare at you)"
Thanks a lot for your comment. I think both answers are correct. I am not sure if cd works for all systems.
This is an optimistic invention driven growth curve hypothesis. There is an alternative pessimistic version. Where challenges like climate change, growing infertility rates, anti biotic resistant bacteria, require reactionary invention.
> “Why can't the machines just take off into space and leave humanity behind?“

Agent Smith said, humans are a virus. I think he was really speaking about the machines—himself—Virulent, amazing, but not genius. Stupid computer. Haha.
"Not just battery powered but battery powered for months+"

True, and solar powered too, that is, put one on a pole and forget about it; not even the cost of changing the battery, just wiping the solar cell now and then if wind and rain don't do their job. The rechargeable one can be a supercap or an oversized cell so that when time will inevitably degrade its chemistry to an unusable state, the sensor will probably have ended its planned use life already.
It should probably be "ETAOINSRHLDCU", or " ETAOINSRHLDCU", right?
My unpopular opinion is that the majority of people who mention Dunning-Kruger or imposter syndrome are primarily just trying to humble brag.

Full Duning-Kruger paper is here. https://pdfs.semanticscholar.org/e320/9ca64cbed9a441e5556879...

There is some commentary on raw test score estimation. Including this funny line:

"Participants in the bottom quartile also overestimated their raw score on the test. On average, they thought they had answered 5.5 problems correctly. In fact, they had answered an average of 0.3 problems correctly"

I wonder if the raw DK data is available? The paper includes a small handful of figures. There's quite a few more I'd like to render.
If this helps I trained as a guest.
Thanks. That clarifies this for me!
It is closer to the ideals of smalltalk and LISP (of the '70s) - where there is little or no distinction between the environment in which one writes the software and the environment that the software is run.

This is a fundamentally different way of how the environment works. You could stop a program and access the development environment because that was part of the runtime.

I’m at the station now and literally just saw a notice about delays today because of track maintenance.
