Yeah, f# is not bad. How is it on linux, are there enough third party libs? Not inclined to use MS tools unless both reqs are met.

Putting BBC presenter on a return flight to interview Greta Thunburg 'awkward'
There are dozens of people like you, maybe even thousands or tens of thousands. In other words, not do worth paying attention to.

Also, you're probably not telling the truth to yourself, since you get your news from HN instead of paying for journalism.
No, it doesn't. Adjustment layers aren't committed; they're just a set of instructions that can later be altered.
I was United 1K for a few years, now back down to United silver (I fly maybe 20-30 flights a year now, down from 100+ when I was 1K). I would certainly pay a couple hundred dollars to keep United silver to get economy plus seats, but would never pay for anything about that
Wow. I'm shocked. I had never heard of these controversies, despite spending some time interested in Frankl a while back.

They seem plausible at first read, and should receive more attention. Thank you for highlighting them.
It's not about SysVInit. It's about supporting other init systems (OpenRC, runit, s6)

Ask HN: How do you consume noisy financial news?
TLDR: Short of putting together an aggregator...how do you attempt to grapple too much noise from financial news sources? Is turning them off the best bet?

From a national (USA) perspective I see people obsess over the markets (as they should given it's their life savings at play). My observations is that the older crowds watch cnbc, fox business news, or NBR (rip [1]). In bad times watching this news brings a sense of panic to the boomer. In good times it still just raises their blood pressure.

~15 years ago I would read the financial times and watch Nightly Business Report on pbs after school. These days I stick to headlines and conspiracy theories... doubling down on surfacing sources through duckduckgo and twitter. I use the !bang feature so as not to limit my results to bing. Certainly not ideal. This results in much of the financial news I stumble upon seeming like a WWE act[2].

Are there any Paul Kangas like sources that I'm missing other than r/wallstreetbets?

Range by David Epstein [0].

It's a good middle point on the understanding of 'mastery' that Gladwell started in the late oughts and whose meme of '10k hours' kinda infected a lot of pop-psych and MBAs. Epstein argues that there are areas where 10k hours work, but limits very much exist. His thesis is that you have to know your environment and that most environments are too chaotic for just grinding out hours. A larger Range of knowledge/experience is likely a better strategy for many areas of life.

I gave copies of the book out as a thank you note/gift after an interview, as I think the book is really good and that the firm could get something out of reading it; that even if they did not hire me, it would help them.

I know that's a bit looney, but it worked. I got my dream job and a hefty pay raise, great benefits, and a short commute.

Literally, the book changed my life.

Salesforce is profitable so I don't think it's that. I didn't check Tableau.
So the question is then if that phase is truly necessary for success or not. A lot of people say, "They grew out of it," but then to look at people who "know their worth and limits" early, they're not nearly as successful, on average. Part of that is that if you're not seen to be working hard, no matter how effective you are, you will not be seen to be effective, and will not reap the rewards of that effectiveness; the people calling the shots will not have it. So, if the expectation is overwork, and it is necessary to advance, is that something untenable to how work in America should be? Or, on some level, do we like it or view it as serving a purpose?

Well, at least wait a few days, eh.
Surprised I haven't read this in thread yet, but isn't this Issue what makes homekit enabled routers appealiNg when they finally release ? As I understand it the router can isolate Internet access on a per device basis.

Yes you can VLAN & firewall your way to the same place, but dealing with it at a consumer router level seems like a really great feature of homekit to me.

And yes, homekit supported devices are relatively rare and often more expensive, and they don't have a $€|$$> doorbell. But If we are talking about BSG Colonial style dishwashers, then this seems like a small price to pay.
I sacrificed the few hours necessary to get to inbox zero - it was worth it. 500 unread emails really isn’t that much.

Articles + posts: I love the backlog. If something isn’t relevant when I go to read it, I’ll probably just trash it. And so the backlog serves as a relevance filter. The best articles I read are “relevant” in a timeless way, so checking to see if the article is still of interest in a different context ensures that what I read is indeed awesome.

Once you’re caught up, try using www.minimal.app for reading lists, writings, etc. The Note Lifetime ensures that the important things get taken care of, while all else is let go. (I am building it.)

11 theatrical releases (not counting re-edits), unless I'm missing something. (Episodes 1-9, not in that order, plus two "A Star Wars Story" films.)
Actually, I'd say they're different because of their position in cache. The reason it doesn't work for reading unfamiliar material is that you don't have the information yet. You need to assimilate to build the picture. In fact, I recall speed reading material I was familiar with and absolutely achieving significant comprehension.

Writing is different. Increasing throughput almost has continuous gains all the way to blitting to computer. This makes sense. Everything is hot cached. Right now everything between my thoughts and the machine is just in the way.
I had never heard of this movie, but it looks great. Thanks for the suggestion!

> The selection tool is just weird. You can highlight a region of the image, but to manipulate or transform it, there's no "Control+T" equivalent as far as I've discovered.

I don't know what ctrl+T is (there may be some nuance I'm missing), but in Gimp the corner resize handles are always visible in a selection, the side handles appear on mouseover, and moving a selection is click+drag in the center.
I’ve used it on osx and it runs great actually, and the Linux story is the same. The standard .NET libraries are obviously sharpened steel and the third party libs are fewer than say NPM but higher quality and address some of the missing pieces. Though again, the F# batteries are great and the .NET libs cover most if not all of your needs.

Check it out. You get sweet syntax, great compiler and tooling, and you won’t suffer things like nulls etc.

Also parallel and or concurrent work is a breeze since everything is immutable by default, and it makes it ugly to try to stick it to a mutable procedural or oop style.

I highly, highly, suggest you check it out. It’s the step child that Microsoft refuses to acknowledge in full force. But I think that story will change soon as they realize how GIANT the Python sector is and so F# is a great gateway drug into the .NET world.

edit:

By the way I used to hate on MSFT for the longest and I haven’t used Windows in over a decade. But F# is fire.
It renders many of us, if not disabled, then faltering and declining, a state that may not be worse than death but is nonetheless deprived.

Why wait till 75? At 50 you're nowhere near as nimble and quick-thinking as when you were 20. Even at 40 you're into decline.

Perhaps make it 30 that you should remove yourself from this mortal coil.
Maybe I should have said low exclusive Linux demand. Current customers are already paying, and ditching Photoshop is not a credible threat, at least at the moment.
I would believe so. Things like dynamic programming (memoization) takes only a few characters, not to mention a wealth of facilities already built in. It's what I use for prototyping math-y software.

If you discount its standard library however, I think it might not necessarily beat APL.
Pascal was a great language for this and still is.

I wonder if there's anyone out there who can read a non-alphabetic language (e.g. Chinese) but doesn't even know how to pronounce what they're reading.

Maybe an experiment could involve a fictional ideogram language, and compare peoples subvocalizing (or lack thereof) versus their native one.
Agreed completely. Buying a book is the best way to really learn more about a subject, and saves me from the binge-bookmarking. I've also made it a habit to clear out my bookmarks at least once a year, based on if I've visited the site or not, and if I still have any desire to read/use what I bookmarked. I've also started making it a habit to try and keep my email as decluttered as possible. All-in-all, it's really helped me mentally and actually made me more able to stay focused on those things I really do want to learn enough to invest time into (currently Abstract Algebra, at the moment).
> DRM and internet dependency are the ultimate tools in capitalisms planned obsolescence toolbox.

They are also the ultimate tools in authoritarian government’s toolboxes. Nothing like the ministry of truth having the ability to prevent the citizens from seeing unapproved “harmful” content that might disrupt society’s harmony.

As the sibling points out, the real issue here is the devaluation of property rights (more specifically your control over your own devices). These type of controls should be fought even in non-capitalist environments.

I’d consider seeing a psychologist. There is nothing wrong with that at all - no different to needing a physical therapist or dentist in my book.

In the short term I recommend setting realistic learning goals, which are rooted in the direction you want to take your hobbies/work, and then discover the places to find that information. Spending 100 hrs learning one thing is more effective than learning 100 different things. And that means deleting the bookmarks, or at least export them them to a csv and stick em in a repo for future searches. But no need to read em all.

The inbox- I don’t know how important the emails are but go through them all and aggressively archive anything you don’t need to follow up on. This might require several passes where you get more strict on what you keep each time.

Don’t be a slave to your past self thinking you need to read everything.
You can’t read the whole web and there is no need to try!
It might not sound impressive, but I think this is great news for two reasons:

1) Even if only 10% of people respond, this is likely going to give thousands of people for whom nothing else works a drug that actually does something.

2) Nearly all existing migraine meds fall into the "triptan" class of drugs. This is an entirely new class (CGRP antagonist), and may pave the way to new treatments even if this specific iteration isn't as effective as future ones.
I am in the happy situation, that my employer values employee opinions. We use zulip. It's not perfect, but clearly more useful than Slack. The one complaining most is our CEO. But he is smart enough to understand that happy coders are more essential for a small SW company than a happy CEO.

The main failure of IT or computer science is the lack of open standards and federation. 40 year old Email was the last somewhat succesful one. You can use various clients like Emacs, Thunderbird, mutt, Gmail web UI and there is no need that sender and recipient share either provider or client.

In communism it was the central planning commission that decided what products consumers want to buy. Today it's Slack that decides how people do IM at work. And Google or Apple how people use mobile apps. Facebook how you interact with your friends. I hope that these monpolies/duopolies would share the fate of communism. How do we get there?
If Tesla's priority was combating global climate change then Tesla would open its chargers to all EVs. Other charging networks charge all EVs (including Tesla cars) whereas Tesla's charging network only charges Teslas.

Tesla's lack of reciprocity is disappointing.
Woah... I wonder if bacteria could in some cases drive certain cancers?

Something that fascinates me is just how small many bacteria are. They appear as specks on the most powerful optical microscopes, if at all. Also, a lot of bacteria simply can't be cultivated outside of the environment they are adapted to, and are as such really hard to study.

This study really reminds me of the symbiogenesis framework for thinking about eukaryotic evolution.

Reciprocating mass (pistons, rods, and valves constantly changing direction) is where a great deal of the energy is sunk when engine braking. It doesn't all go to heat. Accessories are also doing useful work like the alternator charging the battery and the water pump circulating coolant. Friction is significant and increases with rpm and oil pressure, but you aren't heating it nearly as much as when it's burning fuel.

Haha, no. You don't get a free pass of some single shared reality.

The first time you type your newly created password, it's like executing a program/script that goes: "Type('a'); Type('b'); ..."

Once it becomes muscle memory, there's no longer a script (which is why the password is no longer consciously available) for you to execute: you trigger the first finger motion, then it all happens more or less automatically, since the individual finger motions are linked together by sensory cues. Software becomes firmware as it were. I suspect those who claim not to subvocalize could be in an analogous situation, which would mean that they aren't really adopting a fundamentally different approach to reading. Their 'reading program' still takes the same shape as normal people, only a component of it is outsourced and so is no longer consciously available.

Incidentally Charles Dickens wrote about Laura Bridgman (the first deaf-blind person to learn to 'speak' English by communicating with her fingers) and said you can literally visually tell when she's thinking since she'd be moving her fingers. That sounds like the analog of subvocalization for her.

> Her social feelings, and her affections, are very strong; and when she is sitting at work, or by the side of one of her little friends, she will break off from her task every few moments, to hug and kiss them with an earnestness and warmth that is touching to behold. When left alone, she occupies and apparently amuses herself, and seems quite content; and so strong seems to be the natural tendency of thought to put on the garb of language, that she often soliloquizes in the finger language, slow and tedious as it is. But it is only when alone, that she is quiet; for if she becomes sensible of the presence of any one near her, she is restless until she can sit close beside them, hold their hand, and converse with them by sign.[20]

Scale. Just because it was posted on their website doesn't mean they intended to draw a large, extremely critical crowd to it.

It was also the tone the commenter posted in here and across this post that came across very condescending with a holier than thou feel. They also created this account today and have been flagged and had a mod post about their postings. So if they offered some helpful advice in a more constructive way their wouldn't be a need to tell them to stop.
What are you referring to when you say you don't want types at runtime? Every Python object has a type and type-checks will be performed at runtime (e.g., "hello" + 42).

Governments wouldn't have much trouble shutting down Tor nodes in their own territory, as far as I know, since they can trace the IP addresses back to physical computers. Generally, they don't, which is the "uneasy coexistence" aspect. Perhaps they have legal reasons for not shutting it down, such as the US constitution, or perhaps they find it useful for their own purposes to keep it running, or perhaps they just don't care because it's not used widely enough.

I can imagine an outcome in which the illegal information is driven further underground and no longer accessible at publicly known locations. Like the hidden ftp sites that supposedly exist in the "Warez scene".

The trend that most people no longer keep their own data on their own devices, but use streaming sites and cloud servers, will presumably help keep information under control.

Going by mentions in this thread, I rarely put a book down once I've started it but Antifragile was one of them. Somehow I couldn't get through it, though I don't remember what was so bad about it.

The Circle is "preaching to the church" as we say. Anyone who reads that book already is aware of all the concerns it raises. The one thing it doesn't do is answer the question whether it might be a good thing and indeed force us to be better if everything is recorded all the time. It's open ended. There is literally no point to reading this book, and on top of that the first 2/3rds are written like a third grader might write a report of a very dull person's life.

Not sure I've read many other books that I ended up hating. For example, Dan Ariely's Dollars and Sense was as average as his Predictably Irrational was good/entertaining, but I didn't hate it.
Same here.

I often start with 1.5x and go up to 2x or 3x after a few minutes.

It's extremely important for online courses that would normally take weeks to watch and it starts feeling normal so quickly. When I go back to 1x it feels like people talk in slow-motion.

But I think quizzes are important in that context, otherwise the new knowledge won't solidify.

I'm always impressed of how much of my duolingo Spanish skills are still present, even if I didn't use the app for half a year or read any Spanish in that time.
The ratio of voltage and current in the complex plane.

Drop the “harder” and “easier” analogies with Ohmic resistors. They’re confusing, with impedance you’ve gone up a level and the analogy breaks down. Even “matching” Z is kinda meaningless if you don’t express it as a complex quantity: what you’re trying to match is not |Z| but Z* (otherwise it is possible to match |Z| And deliver no power! In practice matching |Z| is good enough)

What if you don’t know about phasors and Fourier transforms?

Doesn’t matter, don’t look down on people to over simplify. Use the magnitude and angle formulation of complex numbers and build on that with pretty pictures.
It might also attract attractive people tired of vapid interactions. I think you'll get all sorts of people.

It's more that this exact conversation happens on just about every post someone makes using some tech. Someone comes in and claims it's wrong and they should have done x.

The main issue with that is having open signups.

Voat became terrible because when subreddits or users got banned, they went straight to voat.

Tild.es on the other hand has been extremely pleasant to use. That said, because there’s no real reason for a mass exodus from reddit, there’s simply a lack of content.
