There is a great American Experience episode about the history
Ok but my data disagrees with you. Specifically: when apps get complex enough, the differences between CPUs and schedulers wash out in the chaos.

I’ve tested this over the course of a decade on multiple Linuxes, multiple Darwins, multiple x86 flavors (Intel, amd, and lots of core counts and topologies), POWER, and various arms, and on many large benchmarks in two very different languages (Java and C/C++). In Java I tested in in two very different VMs (JikesRVM and FijiVM). I think the key is that a typical benchmark for me is >million lines of code with very heterogenous and chaotic locking behavior stemming from
the fact that there are hundreds (at least) of different hot critical sections of varying lengths and subtle relationships between them. So you get a law of large numbers or maybe wisdom of the masses kind of “averaging” of differences between CPUs and schedulers.

I’d love to see some contradictory data on similarly big stuff. But if you’re just saying that some benchmark that had a very homogenous lock behavior (like ~one hot critical section in the code that always runs for a predictable amount of time and never blocks on weird OS stuff) experiences wild differences between CPUs and schedulers then sure. But that just means there are no ideal answers for that scenario, not that there aren’t ideal answers for anyone.

I don't think the article hinges on trump bringing this stuff out. I think its more like the existing popular appeal of this stuff counteracted / re-channeled disgust.
Hey everyone, I just added regression models to the mix. Thanks to everyone who signed up and uploaded data already. I'm available on the slack channel on the bottom of the page to chat about site support and just about data in general!
There's been research lately over sctohastic terrorism - we may remember around the time of Gabrielle Giffords' shooting that the GOP were running ad-campaigns with visual imagery of gunsights, imploring their party base to "target" seats up for election. Tasteless at best.
Nice.

Do you still feel that way even with the new features of LV being developed? It feels like how you use it is being heavily churned on with the introduction of Live Components and now people are also building custom unofficial abstractions on top of that. But at the same time, end user features don't seem to be being released that often.

IMO it's starting to feel like Phoenix is becoming very fragmented even though it's already a small community. You have people not using Live View, some people using Live View, other people using Live View Components and others trying to build their own custom take on what a LV component is. Combined with the documentation being pretty sparse on LV in general makes it pretty non-friendly to develop with and a lot of the articles you read online don't apply to "Phoenix". The apply to whatever variant of no LV vs LV vs LV components vs LV custom component library style you use.

It reminds me of the Node days when tj stopped working with Node and a million other libraries and styles started to spring up to become an alternative to Express. It took years for that to settle down and it's still pretty fragmented.

But a lot of folks just want to go heads down and write cool applications. I really do like Phoenix but yeah, since the introduction of LV and watching its development pace for the last year+, I'm getting kind of uneasy with how things are unfolding.
I don't have any expertise in either area, I was just trying to say that "X owns Y" <> "Y owns X".

"The first phrasing assumes people will have questions, and implies that you are looking for and welcoming questions."

I wish I could hug you.

There must be a zillion useful "language hacks", if we only knew.

I learned "All negatives can be stated a positive" in the early 90s. Been trying to use it ever since.

For example, instead of "Don't run!", maybe say "Please walk." Completely changed my relationship to my kid.

One helpful bit in that particular "life skills" seminar was the practice and role playing.

I would never know to use your "Does anyone have any questions?" technique unless someone showed me.

And I still struggle to imagine how to apply these kind of life lessons in my every day.

It'd be fun, helpful to having a recording of all my interactions, and have professionals review the tape with me. I took some public speaking training where we actually did this. Illuminating.

FWIW, one of the best programmers I know strongly advocates acting lessons.
> I wonder if there are any family with kids on content subscription service decide not to get Disney+ and instead get Apple TV+ if they were to choose between one of the two.

Often they won't have to choose (we didn't, for example) because they get Apple TV+ for a year with device purchases. Although this offer could end at any time, Apple will subsidize TV+ for several years until they have subscription numbers they can brag about.

Additionally, the TV app[1] is a significant home-field advantage for TV+. It's an app store for content from which I can buy, rent, and subscribe to about anything from anyone, and everybody using it will hear about Apple TV+ on a regular basis.

> Then there is the Amazon Prime, which means it is Free for the 100 million subscribers in US.

I use this service occasionally, suffering through the slow and janky app that somehow makes my Apple TV feel like a $20 USB stick. Personally, if it disappeared tomorrow I can't say that I'd miss it.

The article I would like to read is what the challenges are to including a few prior states in navigation. I'm amazed that, when I drive over or under a bridge, my online mapping software changes instructions as if my car were able to levitate 20 feet onto the roadway above or below, even when that roadway is a highway without exit or entrance within a mile.

The pathology is quite different. In Type 1 diabetes, the pancreas stops producing insulin. In Type 2, cells stop responding to it.

So insulin is a necessary component of treatment for Type 1, whereas the first line treatments for Type 2 improve cellular response to naturally produced insulin.

Emphasis on graphical fidelity was an issue when it came out, but the long term performance nightmares are all single threaded CPU bottlenecks. The whole engine just scaled really poorly with increased unit counts and AI/pathfinding computations. For a game that's basically all about scaling that was something of a dealbreaker.
Parcel is great, 99% of the time I'm doing frontend development I just want my build tool to convert Sass/Less/JSX/Babel code to whatever browsers support. It's nice to just source a .sass or .js file and have Parcel figure out the rest.

Has anyone used Parcel and Webpack and still prefers Webpack?

One thing a multi-site scraping aggregator could do would be detect listings that have been re-posted with just a date change, and show the real amount of time the ad has been up, alongside how long it's been most recently refreshed.

It would be interesting to search for ads that were posted a long time ago and are still unfilled.

And it would be intersting to see how that add "posted 12 hours ago" is the same one that was posted 6 months ago and is currently being posted by 5 different recruiters with almost identical wording apart from their boilerplate.

And it would also be interesting to see the different salaries/ranges that are mentioned on different copies of the same ad. I've noticed different recruiters sometimes post the same ad, but with a different salary ceiling. Guess which number I'd like to have when negotiating... And if I see a job whose salary has been creeping up for a few months, that's an interesting trend too.
That is somewhat surprising to me. My idea of the canonical use case for yield is interprocess communication: process A sent a message to process B, and it wants to yield the remainder of its scheduling quantum to process B because process A has nothing left to do. Although maybe this use case is satisfied by something other than sched_yield.

Rilakkuma Anime – Ep.2
I used to work in a gas station during high school and did the paper work for the owner each morning.

He was a franchise, so his gas margin was even lower, closer to 1-2%. And yes, most of the profit came from inside sales where the margins were 50%+ or higher.
I don't think it's very nuanced.

The paragrpah in question is:

The story for Type 2 diabetes is a bit more complicated. Obesity and inactivity play huge roles in the risk for the disease, but genetics are also a factor, even more so than for Type 1. "

If you go to the link she references, theres a lot of statistics about gentic factors on Type 1, but very little in Type 2.

Type 1 has:

"If you are a man with type 1 diabetes, the odds of your child developing diabetes are 1 in 17. If you are a woman with type 1 diabetes and your child was born before you were 25, your child's risk is 1 in 25; if your child was born after you turned 25, your child's risk is 1 in 100.

Your child's risk is doubled if you developed diabetes before age 11. If both you and your partner have type 1 diabetes, the risk is between 1 in 10 and 1 in 4.

There is an exception to these numbers. About 1 in every 7 people with type 1 diabetes has a condition called type 2 polyglandular autoimmune syndrome. In addition to having diabetes, these people also have thyroid disease and a poorly working adrenal gland. Some also have other immune system disorders. If you have this syndrome, your child's risk of getting the syndrome—including type 1 diabetes—is 1 in 2."

And Type 2 has:

"Type 2 diabetes runs in families. In part, this tendency is due to children learning bad habits—eating a poor diet, not exercising—from their parents. But there is also a genetic basis."

It seems that Type 1 genetic factors are much more understood, and there is a correlation in Type 2.
The Mathematical Principles of Natural Philosophy by Isaac Newton is not a popular mathematics book, in the sense of the rest of the list.
Show HN: Self-taught neural network learns to shoot a target
I do disagree with the author’s claim. For example, Bayesian ARIMA is absolutely a kind of machine learning model, and can do very well in some long term time series applications.

Posts like these usually want to create a strawman narrow definition of what is allowed to count as “machine learning” and the work backwards to say that subset of models can’t handle some type of problem.

Machine learning is just statistical modeling. To the extent that any kind of statistical modeling adequately solves long term time series inference goals, then so does machine learning.
The only thing an eruv makes permissible is carrying an item from one domain to another. (I.e. a personal house to the public street to a public synagogue.) It's not so much a hack as a way of making the boundry of the two separate domains part of the same domain. The same way, a row of houses can also be a block or a group of streets can also be a neighborhood...there were laws around moving things from one boundry to another, but all boundries are fictions, so its not really doing anything thats tricking anybody...its not really different than buying your neighbors house and putting a big fence around both properties... I think this is actually why an eruv needs permission from the city or mayor. Its actually a legal boundry in this context...

The point about watching the game...thats not really permissible according to many Rabbis, its just an excuse your friend made because its much worse to take an action that completes an electrical circuit (similar to biblical prohibition of lighting a fire) than to just look at something happening...but there is clear guidance about what you are allowed to even read or look at on Shabbos.
This is just human nature...we all do the best we can with who we are at any given moment...the Eruv though is a very different mechanism.
> I'll be a little bemused if I die and it turns out there's an afterlife, and in fact it was all a game of rules that you could play with like that.

That’s the point. In a society, it’s advantageous for the few if most are busy following the rules. Once a critical mass of people break the rules, it’s chaos. But breaking the rules here and there, under the guise of plausible deniability, allows a small group to benefit greatly.
> Much of this contradicts my N=1 experience.
> I'm afraid this myth buster needs some of her myths busted.

I don't see anything you've written than contradicts the article author?

If you don't take insulin before a dessert, then of-course it will take days to get your sugars back to normal. That's a reason to take insulin if you can/want, not necessarily a reason to avoid sugars.

The author doesn't assert that too many sweets give you diabetes. Only that there are a complex set of factors, among which are sweets. The myth here is that it's as simple as "too many sweets give you diabetes".

There is an enormous range of experiences covered by diabetes 1 and 2. It's no surprise that general myth busting doesn't tally exactly with N=1 individuals, especially someone who has made such an extreme change to their diet to manage their sugars.
Fair enough, apoligies for poor wording!

> can a guy who owns a few dozen stores compete with chains that own hundreds?

With the exception of places like Costco and large truck stops, the vast overwhelming majority of gas stations are franchises where the owner is just some local guy selling under the Chevron or Shell or whatever name. This has some promotional value, of course, but the owner sets the prices just like any other station operator. Ultimately, they all buy fuel from the same local refineries or wholesalers, regardless of the name on the fuel truck that delivers it.

Standard Oil encountered some legal issues back in 1911 by using its size and vertical integration to undercut competitors at the retail level. As a result the petroleum production industry is now intentionally very much NOT involved in retail fuel sales.

Very nice description of Forth BTW.
Broadly speaking, there’s insulin in solution (insulin-R or regular insulin) and crystalline insulin. Insulin-R is relatively short acting and is frequently used in acute therapy or intensive care. It used to be the only type, and can be used in a mode where it’s given before a meal and as needed.

Insulin-N (NPH, neutral protamine Hagedorn insulin) and protamine zinc insulin (PZI) are the first generation crystalline insulins. They have longer lasting (baseline) effects as well as peaking effects that allow them to be given easily on schedule based on the sizes of meals.

There’s a variety of modern insulins now, which are substituted with different amino acids to give them different effects. Insulin glargine and insulin detemir are the most popular. They are supposed to have blunted peaks and are given at regular intervals such as every 24 hours. They mimic the baseline insulin secretion.

Insulin pumps are also available that monitor blood sugar and secrete insulin to keep it controlled. There are also experimental “artificial pancreases” that will also secrete glucagon.

Another comment mentions that cheap insulin can be just as good. This is true but it requires a careful lifestyle. Messing up is more common and if you’re on your own you may be unable to help yourself, e.g. comatose.

Currently, insulin-N and -R are cheap. Detemir and glargine are constantly going up in price despite the existence of multiple suppliers of glargine. (This sort of implicit agreement without actual price fixing is common in the pharmaceutical industry). Essentially, the competitor is a small fraction cheaper, can take some of the market, but most people will continue writing and filling scripts for the incumbent because it’s what they know, on the formulary, etc.

I’m not sure of the use of PZI in human medicine. It’s popular in my patients, as is glargine.

Go has a runtime, so it's not correct to compare it to C/C++. Probably it's more accurate to say that Go is the next generation Java/C#.

Regarding Rust, it's a systems programming language (with this definition, one can skip the different opinions about it being "more C" or "more C++"), with the implications of the category: primarily, that it's undesirable for web developers to deal with the overhead of systems programming.

To me this illustrates that your CS undergrad school wasn't very good [1].

In my experience (CS at CMU), it's the undergrad years that are the most brutal and require the most (assuming you strive for excellence and not just passing).

I've had friends and coworkers who went to MIT, Caltech and Stanford pretty much agree with this. Those of us who continued to graduate and postgraduate studies, have (generally) found the "mental effort" - not time investment - far reduced.

I have many problems with email but I don't see how this solves any of them. How do I see who these were sent to, or what mailing lists they come from? What do the chevron and gear icons do? How does it scroll when I have more than 4 emails? How does search work? How does composing work when I have more than one draft in progress? Does it just ignore my folders/flags/accounts? How do I move/minimize/etc these views if they don't have normal window frames?

This is the danger of judging any design by Lorem Ipsum. If it's not using real data, I don't trust it to be a real design.

JWZ said in 1998, "Mozilla is big because your needs are big. Your needs are big because the Internet is big. There are lots of small, lean web browsers out there that, incidentally, do almost nothing useful."

The standard window frame controls are not a problem to me. In fact, my #1 gripe with every program that tried to customize them (e.g., Pixelmator, Affinity, Firefox, 1Password) is that they screwed it up somehow and everything would be better if they'd just used standard controls.

So Plepler leaves HBO because of their new Netflix “flood ‘em with content of widely varying quality, and let God^H^H^Hviewers sort it out”. Then moves to AppleTV+, where they claim they are trying to be the “antithesis of Netflix”.

Maybe it will work for AppleTV+, maybe it won’t, but the only reason we subscribe to HBO is because if it’s on HBO, it stands a chance being, at a minimum, watchable. When the free year of ATV+ runs out, we will see who is the better HBO.

Some appliances have a "Sabbath" feature to get around restrictions of what Jewish law allows on the Sabbath. For instance, instead of turning on an oven, you put it into Sabbath mode. Then, when you press BAKE and enter the temperature, it doesn't display the temperature or give any response. After a random delay of up to a minute, the oven turns on. Since you didn't turn the oven on directly, it's okay to use it.
