I'm not blaming- I'm simply pointing to anomalous results, outside of the accepted paradigms. They weren't shunned for this result. If what they had found had been confirmed, others would be free to publish more theories/experiments along those lines. However, I would bet that it would be hard to publish a theory now that had faster-than-light propagation.

Hi-Tc was verified and is well accepted (but the theory of SC overall is being revisited). The homeopathic properties of water was debunked by....James Randi.

Cold fusion is a result that is interesting in that at least as of a few years ago there was still an active group of researchers- they even had a conference- but most scientists AFAIK don't believe the initial results and are highly skeptical of any way to create useful rates of fusion at room temperature.

I'm also very interested to see what you and the community can discover using this trick!
You linked to the literal English translation of it, which definitely exists?
Ideally, every TODO should quickly result in an item on your issue tracking system. The item should point to the TODO in the code so it's easily found. That makes it easy to clean it up once it's not necessary anymore.
Yep, if you don't want to use Sync, user.js is an alternative. It's also helpful for sharing settings across multiple profiles. (For the latter, I do wish there was support for including other files...)

There is a user.js project on github[1] maintained by ghacks.net community members that provides a source of documentation for many settings. It's also useful as a way to monitor new and deprecated settings.

I forked the repo here: https://github.com/tyingq/test and it bombs with http 500 if I browse from desktop, but not from a mobile browser.

The README.md bombs in either: https://github.com/tyingq/test/blob/master/README.md

Which is curious...

Edit: Unrelated, but the 500 pages pull in this js: https://github.com/_error.js Which has some interesting stuff at the bottom that watches for a keypress consisting of a backtick, that then does: window.location = '/site/toggle_site_admin_and_employee_status'
In routine application development (which, to be fair, is a slightly different problem than a kernel,) TODO comments are probably at their best when identifying code deficiencies that you don't actually have plans to fix, pointing out refactoring opportunities, and documenting other hacks. If you put this sort of a thing in a bug tracker or other system, no one will see it when they browse the code.

(On the other hand, the bug tracking system is definitely the place to put things which should actually get done.)
I don't support these laws

I am hoping to make a simple product. Also, I am shamelesssly cheap. thank you.
I’ve been doing React for years and haven’t experienced this. What kinds of apps are you building?
Yeah I speak 3 languages and all 3 have mutually exclusive constructs that can't be translated while carrying over the 'true meaning'. English is by far the least expressive of the 3.

A common example is slavic мат. A repertoire of profanities that simply have no English translation, no equivalent, not even a meaningful loose translation/explanation. The best you can do is find the nearest approximate meaningful English construct, but it's a bit like projecting 3d space onto a 2d plane. You fundamentally lose information.

I'm not sure what you're calling bullshit on. The fact that not all languages 1:1 map to each other especially when some classes of languages have fundamentally different constructs like gendered variants of every word, or the fact that some languages are more or less expressive, or the fact that English falls to the side of the less expressive scale. All 3 of these statements are trivial to verify with a couple google searches without even being a multilingual speaker.
Parcel (https://parceljs.org/) fits this bill nicely and I use it for all my personal frontend development needs (node and browser targeted). You just add a script tag that points to a js/typescript/rust/(whatever else the author eventually adds) file and run parcel on said html file and you get hot reloading, decent error reporting, bundling, and asset loading via `import` without having to configure a single thing (other than npm installing sass and react and whatever other libraries you want to use))

Looking at how it does reverse DNS lookups to try and map backwards... is there such thing as a crowdsourced database that resolves the most common domain name(s) that resulted in a given IP address? Seems like this would be tremendously useful for any sort of network tooling, but I can’t find any references from a quick search.
Not sure why, or if i'm the only one, but sometimes I have this problem with Firefox (latest) on Win10:

When I open a new tab, there is a ~50% chance that the URL i'm querying won't ever connect. As if there was no internet.

I tried to remove some open tabs (I have ~20 open tabs all the time) and it worked again.

When it happens, opening a new tab on Chrome always works, though. I wasn't using a proxy and my internet connexion is pretty stable and fast.

Restarting Firefox also helped, IIRC. But I never had such a problem with Chrome, when it was my main browser. Now, this happens every month or so with Firefox.
Doesn't this still put all the commits on the main branch?
FDA usually puts some quite strict limits on the amount of p-hacking and general shenanigans they allow in clinical trials. But there's no approval yet, and no data to look at, so it's too early to judge.

Anyway, usually Alzheimer trials are a jumble of noise. The cognitive measurements are imperfect and patients are improving and deteriorating randomly, taking a very different disease course than you'd expect from textbooks. Finding a signal in the data, even for a working drug can be quite hard. I could just as well believe that Biogen ended the trial hastily because all competitors had failed and they didn't do a thorough analysis.

You also have a processing graph for the intermediate filters. So ideally you want graph nodes represented by some identifier which can then be referenced by other nodes.

Unless I misunderstand you, this is already the case. Simple or complex filtergraphs are declared as a string* by the user as an arg to -vf/-af (per-output) or -filter_complex/-lavfi (global). Filter outputs can have link labels, which allow their consumption by other filters.

*can also be read from a file

Yeah? I was really planning to make a move in this direction in 2020. Another investment opportunity combined with imposter syndrome has put this on hold. Mostly imposter syndrome if I'm honest.

But...I should do this, work to help other devs move out of their employer's house and out on their own. It's as rough and shocking as those first few years outside of mom and dad's but man...if you can make it through the initial bits it's worth it.

I would always start with the hardest tasks you have to get them out of the way. If you are prone to distractions then I guess just work in a room without TV etc. I work from home and cafes on my business and I am able to get work done. If anything I think remote works helps you work harder as you don't want people thinking you aren't working :)
I think it makes sense to refine the levels a bit more. We use FIXME, TODO and OPTIMIZE in order of decreasing importance.

- FIXME should really not even be committed, except in a proof of concept

- TODO should be fixed eventually, preferably before release to production

- OPTIMIZE is a "nice to have" that gets fixed on a quiet day

Furthermore, TBD (to be done) indicates where new expected functionality is expected to appear, deliberately different from TODO because the JetBrains editor flags TODO / FIXME for confirmation before commit, and will ignore TBD.
Except compaction can also take many milliseconds and come from different threads.

Writing a trading system in Java is harder than C++ imo because where before you had an allocation problem, now you have a multithreaded randomly stalling allocation problem.

> Also, in those same jurisdictions, if a part of a contract is trying to enforce something illegal, like taking away a right, then the entire contract can often be considered void.

Which would mean that nothing was transferred to the purchaser. What you seem to actually mean from the rest of your comment is that the illegal term can be excised leaving the rest of the contract in places rather than the contract being void (which may also be an option, but not one, in this situation, that would benefit the purchaser against whom the illegal term would apply were it not illegal.)

Documentation might help people recognize the ideas reflected in the application's design. As another comment notes, it is hard to grasp what I am looking at when looking at the app (beyond the things I already familiar with like green highlights for addition).
The article talks of journals rejecting papers because the author had already been rejected by other journals or because the author’s prior papers were in less-prestigious journals. This method of selecting papers is the perfect recipe for groupthink. The names of the authors should be removed while a paper is being reviewed—the reviewers shouldn’t know who wrote it so that they’ll be forced to evaluate the paper on its intrinsic merits rather than the reputation of its author. That might not solve this beta amyloid orthodoxy problem, but it’d help at least

> How about end poverty, build the best education system in the world, land on Mars, develop fusion energy to solve the upcoming energy crisis, develop desalination technology to solve the upcoming water crisis, or cure some of the most deadly diseases around today?

Well, some of the things you list are at least partially related to climate change. For example desalination technologies looks a lot like stuff you'd need if fresh water became scarce. Fusion energy would also be environmentally-friendly, landing on Mars could be a decent plan B for humanity or at least a way of off-loading some of that economic activity elsewhere.

The bits about poverty, education and curing diseases seem to be quite independent from any climate science thing...

I forgot to mention something, climate science is not a US-specific thing. Everyone is taking a stance and therefore betting on something.

If these bets are not hedged, those who bet on the losing side will be absolutely crushed economically by those who bet on the winning side.

The Bearer of this who is going to America, presses me to give him a Letter of Recommendation, tho’ I know nothing of him, not even his Name. This may seem extraordinary, but I assure you it is not uncommon here. Sometimes indeed one unknown Person brings me another equally unknown, to recommend him; and sometimes they recommend one another! As to this Gentleman, I must refer you to himself for his Character and Merits, with which he is certainly better acquainted than I can possibly be; I recommend him however to those Civilities which every Stranger, of whom one knows no Harm, has a Right to, and I request you will do him all the good Offices and show him all the Favour that on further Acquaintance you shall find him to deserve.

Unless she's talking about an internal prototype that never saw a public repository, Kris is wrong.

The original prototype that saw a public repo was written by Joe and Craig in Python (mostly Craig IIRC) and lasted for all of about a week before they switched to Go.

The original crew of contributors, all from Google, came from a Java background and definitely wrote Java-flavored Go, but no version of Kubernetes was ever written in Java.

Source: I know all the principals and was a contributing member when Kubernetes was initially released.

About 10 years later (sometime in 01-03) I remember installing Red Hat from the CDs in the school library. It was absolutely no problem to get it working for what I needed it for, and with minimal tweaking (I had no clue back then) I got sound working as well.

Remember, this was back in the days were on Windows you'd carefully archive any CDs or diskettes that came with your computer to have a chance to reinstall it and Linux just worked (sometimes, it wasn't always that easy back then.)

See if you can get them to demonstrate their false accusations by getting them to state that to a reference. Without that, you have no material damages to show, with it you have a case. Talk to an attorney. I’d be surprised if they would be so foolish as to try to wreck your future employment prospects over something you didn’t do.
Making them agree is not necessarily the hardest. But remembering to tell new team members in a year or two. Or revisiting the codebase in 5 years from now. I doubt you'll remember
That's what I usually do, but sometimes I send links from the phone to the desktop so I remember to read them there, and if they never appear I just forget about them.
When you fix the TV antenna, the movie continues with the original plot. When you get sober, you may not remember what you did when you were drunk.

In he-said-she-said situations, have a good story. Deflect:

Gain empathy:

> Right, it's understandable that they'd want to blame somebody. And who better than me, walking out the door, going to spend more time with my family?

And minimize:

> But yeah, there's no real meat to their complaint. No attorneys or anything. They're just upset that they got caught shirking their legal responsibilities.

You might be able to hand-pick a reference from your old team, but you're right to not automatically volunteer your old manager's contact information.

I have to be good at telling stories like this. My first employer used legal strongarm tactics to disenfranchise me of thousands of commits of code, and my second employer tried to pin a sexual-harrassment claim on me and then fired me after I asked their head of HR to follow the law. Employers are dicks. Tell a story that lulls them to sleep.

Looks like the kind of employer you might not want to use for references anyway, but I'd gather as much evidence of that gossip as possible, talk to a lawyer and have him/her reach the company to cease propagating these gossip, which could as well be considered defamation. If they believe they're been wronged and something wrong actually happened, then they should bring those facts with proofs to back them up.

Yeah, but that's just part of the overall parameters. with a structured file format (toml, yaml, json... pick your poison) the filter arguments could also be structured themselves instead of having to be a single string, just another nesting level among the other params. The shell only so many ways of structuring things until you run out of seprator chars. And already has to deal with the impedance mismatch of translating space-separated args into an array of zero-terminated strings which results in its own escaping rules.
