I have a pair of 2004-era QC and they’re super nice, but I found that the Beats Studio Wireless noise cancellation was as good as theirs and have been happy.

I can’t use the modern Bose QC because they cancel so strongly that it makes me want to vomit, so apparently there’s a limit somewhere.

I haven’t had a chance to try the AirPods Pro in an airplane yet, but their noise cancelling seems equivalent to the other two so far.
What language do you use?

And what for do you need UML (and what type diagrams)?

For example, IDEA products for Java has some tools for class diagrams

MS visio is nice too as tool for just painting UML

But main problem with UML - synchronization with code base
Thy could do that with histograms of GPU load and network load. And that would be far less worrying or abusable.

Interview Questions (and When to Ask Them)
We've Made Quite a Mesh
No need to go all the way to Hong Kong for examples. There's been plenty of violence by security forces with 100's of heavily wounded and a few deaths in the yellow vest protests in France recently. Here's a partial list up until January this year: https://www.liberation.fr/apps/2019/01/la-carte-des-gilets-j...

We're talking people losing their hand(s), eye(s) or dying here.

Same for the Barcelona protests (non yellow vests).

You'll have to search quite a bit to find articles on those if you live in "the West", but yeah they do happen.

On topic: if only Macron and Winnie the Pooh could somehow circumvent the encryption of those pesky protesters...
As an example of Fermi estimation, it's pretty reasonable. 10 m/s is too much, given that most people wouldn't want to spend a lot of time accelerating at the rate of a Corvette on a drag strip. So the correct number is between 1 and 10.
I would like to implement a web front end or a Common Lisp LSP server based on swank/slynk if I had time...

Does anyone know about prior works I could potentially contribute to?
Wayback machine and text diff.
Intel would basically be encouraging people to violate their copyright. Remember that technically, only Intel has the rights to distribute their software.

Thanks for sharing! I like the idea of getting the diff in my email notification.
I’m glad to hear it’s not only me. I used to get powerful amounts of upvotes on my comments when well written, but lately I’ve been seeing my votes swing wildly all the way from -4 to back in the positives. I just don’t get it, and I wish Hackernews had a way to see the full voting activity on comments. As of now, I’m going to assume there’s vote fraud going on.
the top results were all stories about Ukraine and the impeachment hearings

Given what we know about the political leanings of Google it is very hard to see that as anything other than an attempt to direct the narrative.

Even if it isn’t, it’s still unclear how an algorithm would make that jump from those keywords. A completely different country, for example.
Is this a new release? Curious if BitWarden supports devices like this.
Hi, thanks for having a look at the code! I did not put lots of effort in developing the trading strategy itself. So you need to make sure you provide a `proft` param to the function `bd_insert_buy` which is large enough so you don't loose money. Currently, the `maestro` function sets the `DTHR` variable which is used both as dip threshold for buying, and as profit value.
Who said anything about "full city"? Most /= all.
Agreed. It's a great book.

Of course there's a way to separate them. Let banks do what they like and obstruct everyone else in some way. As another poster phrased the argument: "Corporations should have access to strong encryption, just not little people."
The quote used to enforce "must include expression" but this is no longer true with google queries.

My guess is that, by now, resource intensive 'power users' are not worth the effort for google.

For technical queries I moved on to ddg, it's not perfect but a hell of a lot less time waisted.
The wikipedia pages[1] on that subject are pretty good. I have them open frequently because of my current project, here is a typical sample of the output for a single test:

satie f_measure: 82.93 precision 97.62 recall 72.09 accuracy 70.84

The context here is a program that tries to recognize what is being played in an audio file. The precision refers to the chance that any given note in the output was actually in the input, the recall the percentage of notes from the input that was recognized. Depending on your application you might give more or less weight to those two. In this particular application precision is more important than recall because a wrong note sounds terrible but a missed note makes no sound at all...

You can usually adapt a classification problem to give you these figures, it sometimes requires a bit of creativity to determine what exactly constitutes a false positive or a false negative. In this case a false negative is a missed note, a false positive is a note that wasn't there that got recognized anyway.

To be able to easily determine whether or not a given change is an improvement you steer by either f_measure or accuracy.

Off topic but there is a significantly lower risk of injury while skydiving than driving.
There are three things going on here, one of which is probably bad and the others pretty normal.
- humans ranking results: these are called evals and Google has been doing them for at least 15 years. It used to be that there were a sort of "golden" set of manually ranked queries and results, and any change in the search algo would run against them to make sure nothing broke. My guess is over time, as the algorithm became less heuristic and more AI-driven, these sets are instead used to train the models.
- blacklisting of misinformation or spam: as a user, I appreciate this. As a citizen, I'd rather not trust Google as the arbiter of truth, but I generally think they've made good choices here (vs other tech companies). Until society has solved this problem (through regulation or otherwise) I'm OK with this.
- giving advice or favors to advertisers: this is messed up. And will be hard to argue that if they do it for advertisers they don't also (anti-competitively) do it for their other internal properties.

Hell yes. The only time it's acceptable is if they get my informed consent.
I used to agree, but I find Sony is slightly better now. I only use silently for noise cancellation when working, no music/flights.

My main gripe is that they power off after time if not connnected to a Bluetooth source, but there’s probably a fix.

I’m also not a fan of the talking command voice and find the touch controls overly sensitive (they beep if you bump them)
You might also like www.breakdown-notes.com. It is not as focused on diagrams as draw.io (and others), but is rather nice if you want to make something inbetween notes and diagrams. (so I say as the owner of breakdown-notes).
Trains need infrastructure all 750 miles of that trip. Airplanes need infrastructure only at each end of the trip. Thus airplanes are cheaper to run very long distances.

I imagine for heating, it's that the trees get exposed to more irradiation by sitting in the focus of the curve rather than in front of a line.
Your dish isn't vegan though. It may be an improvement over eating meat, but it still creates suffering for living creatures. I don't know why you need so strongly to apply the "vegan" label to whatever your dish is, especially when it seems to involve literally eating "meat" from insects. Just call it "sustainable omnivorism" or something.

The market for payments using Apple devices. The anti-Apple brigade desperately wants iOS to be Android, yet many of us buy Apple specifically because it’s not Android. We use Apple Pay because they know more about privacy and security than “John’s Community Bank” who would love to force their customers to use their own bank payment app that they had some Infosys guys in Bangalore write for them. Then the credit card companies will all make their equivalently shitty app that we then have to use.. so payments becomes a mass of disparate apps instead of the flawless Apple Wallet experience we have now that works on all your devices, including Mac.

The critics of Apple Pay almost certainly haven’t used it on Mac, or Watch, because it’s pretty darned magical.

What's the resolution of each layer and the resolution of the depth ?
>when he (Musk) started the whole illogical "make a rocket come back and land" stuff.

I'm not sure what you mean by "illogical"; the idea of landing rockets has been around for 50 years. The issue is the technical challenges, and the cost. SpaceX have demonstrated that they have solved many of the technical issues, but haven't demonstrated that it's actually worth reusing rockets.

I suspect the same thing is true of digging tunnels. We have the technical ability to do it, but it isn't economically viable.
Well, on the other hand if such a system was implemented in the US, prices would stay the same. For me as an end user I don’t care if Wal-Mart eats those fees or Visa does, except I get a credit card where, as you say, I get points and whatnot to keep using.

There is also nothing stopping companies in the US from either implementing a super low-cost system, or just only accepting cash. I think CC have critical adoption in the US, and nothing but legislation would remove them - it’s a zero sum game. If I stop using a card I don’t get points and pay the same price for products.

I don’t know all of the details of the German Girocard, seems like it’s a good product potentially, but would need some more info. In the US, if someone scams my debit card I am out of cash until it’s recovered. How does it work in this case for this card?

I would also like to challenge the notion that prices should be X, just because someone is perceived as a middleman. Prices should be (excluding healthcare) whatever people are willing to pay. It’s equivalent to someone complaining about mobile app developers costing a certain amount of money and just saying that’s the way it should be. Companies put a lot of money, time, and development into building the infrastructure and products, so they should be free to charge what the market will bear for these types of products.

True. Not widely available though. The great thing about Rust is that has a whole of the advantages of Haskell, and C++, and to a lesser extent even languages like Python.

We're talking about abandoned buildings here. They are already practically ruins; I don't see how this applies. Even in your public parks example, we develop natural spaces so people can enjoy them even though doing so requires clearing some portion of the land for roads and facilities. Overall I agree that trespassing is selfish but I don't see anything wrong with that if it doesn't harm anyone else.
It is more complicated than just moving people. Anyone traveling by bus isnt bringing stuff with them. They need shelter. The US evacuation model assumes most people will bring enough with them in thier cars to be self-sustaining for a period of days. The assumption is tgat 90+% of people wont need government help... due to thier independant mobility of people and stuff.

See the recent evac of fort mcmurray canada. That was all cars for hundreds of miles. No hope for busses there.

_Can_ any large dataset actually be anonymised effectively?

I'm not yet convinced it can be done in a way that can't trivially be reversed by anyone combining it with other datasets.

And if it can't be anonymised, then it probably shouldn't be saleable.
Sadly, people are removed from civil society today (as they are removed from society in general), which leaves a lot of space for various snake oil salesmen selling them "safety" and "truth". We know well that these things can't be bought but earned.
No, that is your issue. Like I said, I couldn't care less.

If Google once said, "PageRank is a combination of butterfly migration patterns and random chicken bones scattered on the floor..." I wouldn't care. If Matt Cutts laughed manically after each interview while nodding in a knowing way at the camera, I wouldn't care. If Larry and Sergey personally dug a hole to the center of the Earth to power their personal space stations using microwave transmitters fueled by geothermal energy, I wouldn't care.

I also don't care what the WSJ says about itself either. It also happens to be a private company and it can do whatever it wants. If they want to claim to be a source of "trusted news" (and they do), that is their business. I don't care. I just happen to think that they are trash.

My opinion has nothing to do with Google or their butterflies and like all opinions (including yours and everyone else's) it is essentially worthless.

But do go on if you want... I don't care.

> This makes little sense, it doesn't protect you from exploits, they just run on the cloud instead.

I am in no way endorsing this product (or the category of products), but it is incorrect to say that it doesn't protect you from exploits.

It protects against your machine being compromised, and while the browser VM can be compromised, it can theoretically be ephemeral, possibly even only having the lifetime of a single tab (some products in the space does this IIRC).

It's all just a matter of what your threat model is.

> If this is something you really want for some reason, why not just RDP/VNC/Chrome Remote Desktop back to your office/home network.

You could make a minimal linux VM with only a web browser, keep good discipline and never do anything else on it, and RDP into it.

However, these products commonly provide much smaller attack surface than such a setup, and combined with something like VM-based tab isolation, you wouldn't be anywhere near the security features of such a product.
For what it’s worth, I have the QC35 II and they do have a “low cancellation” setting. It’s not the default though, which would be annoying to change every time you turned the ‘phones on.

I feel like Outer Worlds is a successor to Fallout 1 and 2. i felt like it was mostly about the story and not about the open-world freedom that the games from Fallout 3 onward have provided. That's not to say it's bad game. I think there are (at least) two main Fallout camps: those that enjoyed the story-driven worldbuilding from the older games and FNV as well as those that enjoy the agency in the newer ones. If you fall into the first camp, Outer Worlds is fantastic.
Even in Denmark where I am from originally and where they've gone to great lengths to improve public transportation it's not preferred.

Denmark is a small country and the efforts are huge, yet even there people prefer the car.

The issue is that you can't just build a solid infrastructure for everyone, it's impossibly expensive the further out you get.
Halfway through my second playthrough of Fallout 4, I realized that I had been playing (more or less) the same game for 10 years (TES4, F3, TES5, F4). Same gameplay loop, more shallow characters, and more mediocre writing, and to top it all off, I wasn't enjoying the open world/sandbox all that much. Not to mention, all of them have the same weird kinds of bugs and crashes.

I hurried through and went back to Witcher 3.

I decided that until Bethesda starts writing games properly (story- and code-wise), I'm going to pass. Fallout 76 didn't interest me, and stayed away from that soon to be dumpster fire. I found it hilarious that most Fallout 4 criticisms applied to Fallout 76.
