You are right. Let's remove the "+" operator in favor of operator.add. It's totally worth the readability.

I'm sorry but "|" is not only a very commonly known operator in the entire programming world, it is already an officially supported operator by python, vastly used by the community for doing unions: sets use it, sqlalchemy use it, pandas use it.

Let's not confuse explicite and paperwork.

Most experiments on helmet use shows increase in risk behaviour of the wearer. Observational studies are less important for decision making.

That module is great fun to mess around with. I've made a program that uses it to plot the Python logo[1]. I had intended to also have it plot the correct gradient but I had trouble getting the trapezoid filling algorithm working correctly at the time.

I have a 2017 MBP w/o touchbar - I think it's pretty good. I do use a film to put over the keyboard though, maybe that's why I've been lucky (it makes the keyboard even quieter).
My impression is that we just don't have enough data to draw an accurate timeline, much less a tree, and are an order of magnitude away from being able to study second-order phenomenon like introgression. I think fewer than 10,000 early hominid individuals have been found, most with very partial skeletons. And they aren't distributed uniformly across time and space; you might find a dozen in one cave, then nothing for thousands of years, or nothing on an entire continent.

It also seems like every time they find a new fossil, they change their mind about how everything fits together. I am not an expert in this field, but if I had a small dataset and I fit a very complex model to it with literally hundreds of free parameters and I found that the model completely changed every time I added a few new data points and re-fit, then I would conclude I was dealing with a high-variance model that was overfitting the data and either use a simpler model or wait until I had collected much more data before trying to fit such a complex model.

I recently tried to seriously use Emacs over my usual Vim. Mainly because I've got so used to the GNU readline emacs shortcuts in the terminal and quite like the idea of not having to switch between command and insert mode, but damn after looking into some configuration options it really is a massively complicated piece of software, I mean not to start using it, it's probably easier than Vim but just looking at all the various modes, plugins, the whole ecosystem behind it. Even emacs lisp doesn't put me off, with some albeit minor exposure to Scheme and Clojure in the past. Especially now that I have got comfortable with Vim having no plugins but knowing enough Vimscript to be productive, I really don't think I'll switch, it's too much of a commitment.

When I moved into a 17th century farm in the Swedish countryside I quickly learned to dread the sound of thunder, especially when not at home. The reason was to be found in the rather ancient and dilapidated power and telephone distribution networks which lacked - and still lack - things like overcurrent protection. The effect this gave on anything electronic in the house was, to put it mildly, not pretty. Lightning did not have to strike the power or telephone line, it was enough for a strike anywhere near one of these to cause an electronic-frying pulse to be delivered. I had a stack of ADSL modems to swap out fried ones after which I repaired or 'fixed' (as in disabled fried non-essential bits) those which weren't beyond fixing and added them back to the stack. When I finally got tired of repairing fried pieces of equipment I installed my own overcurrent protection system on the incoming power line after which the misery stopped. Initially it stopped because of the sudden and suspicious absence of thunderstorms, leading to all sorts of superpowers being ascribed to that grey metal cabinet I hung on the wall. Now, with that box and a glassfiber connection instead of the old copper phone line Thor is mostly welcome again, just as long as he refrains from starting forest fires - of which we've had 2 this summer, not on but ever closer to our land...
I have been running Arch (Gnome/Wayland) on a Dell XPS13 9380 for more than 6 months now without any issue except the fingerprint reader not being recognized.

The Arch wiki page for the 9370 really helped, especially since initially the battery was draining on sleep, not after applying the recommendations.

I dock it on USB-C 3.1 dock. The display switches instantly.
The Gnome/Wayland fractional scaling is however not good, the image is blurry. I don't use it.

How do you define "absolutely no harm"? Cause a lot of them are clearly misleading about what they do, what permissions they require. A lot of games are clearly geared to be addictive and get you to spend money on their "free" game.
That's hardly a stable solution. It would start out nicely, but some of them would start eating up the market due to network effects. Then turn evil...

If you make network effects harder (e.g. it extremely easy to submit apps to all of them), I don't see this not becoming a competition over price. And security is expensive. You'd have to prevent people search some nice apps on your store, then downloading the same on a different store with lots of shit tier apps as well, if it saves them your 30% tax.
>The idea of cross-examining the person who introduces security camera video doesn't really make much sense.

Well interestingly this is a major issue in red light camera cases. Initially as cities were implementing red light cameras, the ticket and court case were all essentially automated.

In many jurisdictions this was challenged on multiple grounds, but one of the biggest issues (which most courts tending to agree with) is violation of the defendants rights to cross examine the State's witness and improperly introducing the video into evidence (generally it was introduced by affidavit from some record keeper in the camera company).

Its really a fundamental rights issue.

I work on Linux full time at work and use a Mac at home, both primarily for creative work. The Linux experience has some strengths, but you feel required to spend a significant amount of time customising your environment to reduce workflow friction. The Mac is great out of the box, and in general gets out of your way. The basics are rock solid.

It all happens during a split second of the impact, thr helmet won't be slipping while it is being pressed against your skull by the impact, hence the slip mechanisms. The strap is to make sure your helmet is still in the right place at the moment of impact and subsequent impacts not to stop it from moving during the impact.

Whether or not it's a marketing gimmick, it's the only good indicator we have as the research is inconclusive and I certainly don't have any better idea than the people making the helmets.

That said, what I typically look to for advice on what is a safe helmet is downhill mountain biking competition standards. If they think it will make the sport safer, and their insurance lower, then it's a good indicator that it is probably a good standard to have for my own head.

Stick ‘em up – A surprising history of collage
Put the laptop on eBay or its local counterpart as an auction with the starting price of $1. A working laptop from 2008 is pretty much guaranteed to sell like that. Whoever cares enough to compete with the other buyers and to pay money for it is likely to have a purpose in mind for the laptop. They may want to use it themselves, give it away as a gift, take it apart to fix other laptops, or (refurbish and) resell it.
It's a similar issue in presidential debates. Someone needs to have the authority that something is off topic or off the rails or whatever, but they have to balance that against things that need to be said. And the choice has political implications, big or small politics.

The whole point of structure in these types of dialogues is to reveal the nuggets worth talking about, not cover them up in favor of following the rules.
For the snacks, intermittent fasting also helps a lot.
My personal favorite are currently "Bill Gates is a great guy", and "Microsoft loves open source". They have been fantastically orchestrated for the last few years in regular medias, but also on sites like HN, reddit or even imgur (!).

And it worked very, very well. The pro BG and MS sentiment is growing more and more every day, while 15 years ago, they were evil.

Partly because the communication was amazingly good, smart, and on the long run. Partly because they Gates and Big M did do good things in the mix to support the narrative, and so it looks very real.

It's nicely done, you'll notice a few posts here and there, but the real work is done in the comment, like gardening.
Sorry, but when you throw around $2000 you'd expect a better product. Especially when you come from an older version of the device. And every customer has the right to complain about this. So no, they won't leave you in peace - they got every right to do so. Apple did a bad thing and took years to recognize it.

I heard a tape of the original interview, too, and I was shocked that certain people with an agenda used it to ruin him.

Plus-size activists hit the roof, for unknown reasons.
> assuming from the very start that all human species ancestors are some kind of ape

No one makes that assumption. We know from copious hard evidence that humans and modern apes are closely related, and from more limited hard evidence that there were other animals with features similar to both humans and apes long ago. More recent human ancestors were not apes (they were more human-like), and way distant past ancestors were not apes (they were before even prehistoric apes existed), and none of our ancestors were modern apes (which have evolved into their modern forms since our last common ancestors with them, and those common ancestors were not apes as we know them today). Some human ancestors were prehistoric ape-like animals.

Teaching well-established scientific knowledge in schools is essential, and about as far from criminal as it's possible to get. Your "all human species ancestors are some kind of ape" is not well-established scientific knowledge, but your faulty assumption of how you imagine others' knowledge to work.

You seem to be starting with the assumption that evolution isn't real (based on a primary school reaction?!), rather than deriving the knowledge that it is real from the evidence. (Yes, I have actually done this. I had a summer job deriving evolutionary relationships directly from genetic data. It's not difficult, and the connections between species just pop out of the DNA sequences with a bit of maths.) Evolution wasn't just made up, it was figured out from the evidence, just like gravity, electricity, chemistry, etc. Like all scientific fields, our knowledge of it is not complete (and never will be).

"highly credentialed biologists",
which is different than
"highly credentialed in biology"

By that sophistic logic, I'm a "highly credentialed chess player" simply
because as a child I played a few games of chess and now have lots of
credentials in a STEM field. By the same logic I would also be a

- highly credentialed soccer player

- highly credentialed surfer

- highly credentialed linguist

and many more variants. All of the above would be misleading because
clearly statements like "X is a highly credentialed Y" are usually assumed to
mean that X's credentials are in subject Y. Since a persistent and
widely known criticism of Gender Studies and the concept of gender is
the severed link with biology in general, and the biology of fertility
in particular, is remarkable, and it is difficult to believe it is
done in good faith.

1) Build a proper (local) logging service in your app. With Node.Js I use winstonjs/winston.

2) Use time series databases to log your server metrics. Eg. InfluxDB

3) Familiarize yourself with CLI tools like cat, less, tail, grep, sed for when you have to get your hands dirty with raw data.

4) Logrotate is a great choice to cap the size of different program logs.

Neither do I but I see tribalism as one of the most destructive forces of the last decade, responsible for almost all big changes (and lack of change) in the world. Politics spill out to other areas. It is not difficult to connect the dots between rapid clicks-and-likes driven social media to the burning of Amazon forests.

I don't know what the solution is but this is the meta problem. Solving it is likely to start fixing other areas of life.
