Yep I can.

> I am not sure his suggestion is practical

So what's your solution? Just live in misery all the time because doing the easy thing is easier than doing the correct thing? Avoid immediate discomfort in exchange for long term happiness - what terrible advice. No wonder these people are depressed.

You only get to live once, and I cant imagine anything worse than rotting away because you dont have the balls to stick up for yourself - sitting there at 9PM answering slack messages rather than just saying "I'm off the clock, go hire more people if you want 24/7 support".

Make love to her and save your marriage or break up and move on, just don't sit in resentment filled limbo, watching her clearly unhappy and flirting with other men --- then act surprised and betrayed when the thing THAT YOU CAN SEE MILES AWAY happens. He can see the unhappy future approaching and he's still not acting? Why? Because he is in love with misery like my post says.

Except when he does the mushrooms and they cheer him up a bit and give him the clarity and happiness to fix it. He still has to do it himself though

Riding on the road is even more dangerous in some areas, though.

If a cyclist and a pedestrian collide, someone might go to the hospital. If a cyclist and a car collide, someone is likely to die, and it's basically always the cyclist.
That definitely has not been the case in my observation, including my own job hopping career.
I don't think either CAN-SPAM nor Do Not Call provides a private right of action that would apply here.
Anecdotally, I disagree with most points you raise in this comment.

> We all laughed at Apple ... as they entered into the smartphone industry

Did we? I remember being immediately captivated by the iPhone 1. In fact, I still think the initial years of the iPhone were its peak. Yes, there were naysayers (there always are—see electric cars as another example), but I think many/most were excited.

> Tesla ... [is] starting to get in on the electric car craze

Really? Tesla is just starting to get in on this electric car craze? The Model S was released eight years ago. I feel it could be credibly said that the Model S was "getting into the electric car craze" even though the Roadster was before it. But now, with the Model 3 being two years old, the craze is here and Tesla is the focal point.

Alternatively, Amazon's Alexa was introduced two years after the Model S, so I suppose Amazon is starting to get into the home assistant craze?

> It would take some form of interesting tech and magic to get people to dump their cars for electric ones.

All sorts of people are doing exactly that. I started driving electric cars with the original MINI E in 2009 and have not bought an ICE-powered vehicle since. This is common since once you drive electric, ICE seems antiquated.

Saying Goodbye to My Favorite 5 Minute P1
The wireless systems I am thinking have published latency specs of something like 3ms, for example. It’s not worth the cost for my uses so I just stick with wires. I’m not sure which systems you are referring to that have 10ms latency, but I haven’t worked with many wireless systems so it could just be a lack of experience on my part.

https://assets.sennheiser.com/global-downloads/file/12186/SK... - 3ms

https://www.shure.eu/productdocumentsfiles/default/products/... - 4ms

Opus can achieve reasonable lossy compression ratios with 2.5ms packet sizes using its CELT half, which uses MDCT, so it’s definitely possible to achieve high quality under these constraints. I doubt it would make sense with Bluetooth LE because of the complexity of the codec.
> Put enough catsup and mustard on anything and it will taste enough like a burger for me

Ugh. As someone who hates catsup and mustard, I hate the "it tastes the same when it's loaded with sauce" veggie burgers.

The patties actually need to taste good on their own.
>Nissan is a automobile company 80 years of history. That is hardly "anyone".

My point is that it's not rocket science or cutting edge tech. The processes are well known and defined, it's just a matter of investing the capital and putting them in place.
Because nowadays when a system is created (born) a basic package of the sum total of current knowledge is downloaded onto the system (school) with a vast array of optional packages one can choose from (books, college, etc). To add to the sum total of knowledge is a painstakingly long process in comparison (phd, r&d, innovation). But someone had to be the person to git init and make the first commit. Even if they had the same specs, they didn't have access to a 10k+ year old code base. If a modern person had grown up in ancient civilization, I guarantee they wouldn't be all that much more knowledgable than others of that time.

Recent theories around Prefrontal Synthesis are useful to consider with regard to the evolution of the "modern mind". ".. the existence of a strong critical period for PFS acquisition creates an evolutionary barrier for behavioral modernity"[1]. In short, the PFS acquisition theory explains functionality of recursive language and imagination. These adaptations are thought to occur about 70k years ago.

I mostly agree... I use a TB/USB3 dock at work, it works in either/or mode, though USB mode graphics sucks, it's okay for getting work done (web platform development, mostly text/terminal).

I was only pointing it out as pretty much the only thing that's likely to be a significant issue for many, especially if you're doing any kind of casual gaming while wanting to dock, vs plugin a few separate items. I use a desktop at home, so not as concerned personally.
Like I said, we don't even know what consciousness is.

To say there is a platonic consciousness is kind of saying you know what that looks like. And to say that you could grant something an intelligence capable of solving the problem of colonizing the stars while also denying it the ability to choose its own goals is an assumption I'm not willing to grant.

In other words, there is "a reason to think this!" We are that reason. Other life on this planet is reason to think this.
Blame Amazon! :P
Looks like “owning stock” in your data doesn’t include thing like pensions (public or private).

A lot of people own stock indirectly.
If you read more of Ben's writing, he talks extensively about how software companies dominate market share through network effects and vertical integration.

You don't hear him talk about economies of scale because marginal costs are negligible for software companies. Besides, network effects and vertical integration are sufficiently powerful to control the market.

> In addition, new tools and new processes for software has increased the productivity times fold, which means that you need fewer developers for new software.

There are other barriers to entry besides the cost of writing software, like product, sales, operations, and most importantly, network.
He specifically mentions excluding imports. Outside of Tesla, what are the new American car companies that made any kind of mark?
I've looked into it some more; I had assumed /proc/*/exe acted like a symlink whose value never changed, but actually it's more complicated[1]. As a result (only considering Linux here), there actually is a race condition in what they're doing: /proc/self/exe will have " (deleted)" appended if the executable is deleted. In an apparent attempt to make the problem more subtle, they're doing the readlink on every program startup so that if the value is needed, it will be correct--unless the file was deleted between when it was exec'd and when it got to the readlink call.

Nifty. But i do wonder why goto the trouble when megasquirt is viable?
Interesting thought though. Why do NFL players get paid so much? Where's the money actually coming from? I don't know too much about this industry but it seems their NFL salaries come from ticket sales and TV licensing deals, and the TV companies can pay them because of advertisements, which they can sell because people watch football thus tv thus ads.

Must be why NFL, NBA etc get so fuckin salty when people upload highlight reels and stuff to youtube.

I can't think of anyway to similarly monetize teaching and I really don't think anybody should go down that route, it sounds terrifying. But how do you convince a bunch of people watching football, which kinda costs them either nothing or like 90$ a month for their cable subscription, that they should also spend a % of their income on teachers?
Cant one bind to opengl directly ?
Why do we need another codec than opus? Is it complementary?

Also why do Bluetooth create a latency, this is pure nonsense.
YouTube has cached the video so instead of sending in real time audio to my headphone, why can't the YouTube app send cached audio too in order to have zero latency?
AI was renamed into many things in the '80s and '90s, for example "Intelligent Systems" or "Adaptive Systems" etc, and that indeed was done to dissociate research from the bad rep that had accrued for AI. But "machine learning" has been the name of a sub-field of AI since the 1950's and it's never stood for the whole, at least not in conferences, papers or any kind of activity of the field.

For example- two of the (still) major conferences in the field are AAAI and IJCAI: the conference of the "Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence" and the "International Joint Conferences of Artificial Intelligence". Neither of those is in any way, shape or form a conference for machine learning only and neither uses machine learning a byname for AI. By contrast, machine learning has its own journal(s actually) and there are specific conferences dedicated to machine learning and deep learning (NeurIPs and ICLR).

Additionally, there are many sub-fields of AI that are not machine learning, in name or function: intelligent agents, classical planning, reasoning, knowledge engineering etc etc.

The only confusion between "AI" and "machine learning" exists in the minds of tech journalists and the people who get their AI news exclusively from the tech press.

P.S. As a side note, the name for what the tech press is doing, referring to the field of AI as "machine learning", is "synecdoche": naming the whole by the name of the part.
A 401k is an account, funded by a mix of employer and employee contributions, that's beyond reach of bankruptcy. That part is the same.

The only bit that's different is the self-management of assets, of which many companies are happy to do, increasingly for lower and lower fees. 0.2-0.3% being common which I bet goes toe-to-toe with good pension managers.

They really aren't that different.
The NFL etc. are largely about watching sport, not participating in it. You'll find lots of countries that (i) have better publicly accessible sporting facilities than the USA and (ii) spend far less public and university money on sports teams.

How to Do Intermittent Fasting: Complete Guide
You've missed their point a bit here. It wasn't that the most common time to start a union is when you have leverage, it was that that is the best time.

Software workers could achieve huge results if they collectively bargained, and the relative scarcity of labor means that if they unionize it will be comparatively difficult to skirt those unions.

Also, there's not knowing what you've got until it's gone. Software workers have the power to organize now, but there is good reason to believe that, for one reason or another, that power will decrease at some point in the future. That has happened to practically every industry in history. Software workers would be wise to organize when they can, instead of waiting until they are forced to.
i would wager a fair amount of US dollars that, given past behavior/track record, the offensive mission of NSA would almost certainly result in some sort of backdoor that would eventually be used by opposing actors to pull down the data directly.

the defensive NSA guys would probably be blamed post-facto in some sort of delicious intra-organizational bull-bleep.
Ok, but you still haven’t made an argument for why it would be better to spend a lot of effort designing a complex system of incentives and punishments for private companies rather than focusing on building a quality public service.
This is actually independent of emauth's implementation, it depends on how you implement the validation workflow (what you do when you receive the token).

The naive implementation is to just say "Hey, a valid token... Ok, you're now logged in", but this suffers from the issue mentioned in a parent comment:

>>> Links can be opened by the controller of the email even if they didn't make the original request. Links can also be opened by something scanning the email before the user sees them. Neither of these potentially malicious use-cases are covered by emauth.io.

>> We store the user’s session ID at the time they request the email be sent, and then validate it’s still the same session ID when the token (which is a parameter on the URL) is consumed.

> This breaks the use-case where the user is on a desktop computer but checks mail on their phone.

So what I'm saying is:

* Store the sessionId with the token

* When you handle the validation request, mark the stored sessionId as "logged in"

This handles the "click on validation from a different device" use case, while also preventing someone who's able to intercept your email from being able to log in themselves.

Yeah, adsterra is quite good.
This is a weird claim to make in the games industry. The vast amounts of cash Fortnite made for Epic is being poured back into buying up indie games and supplying a better store for game sales and creating a better game engine that anyone can pick up and use for 5% of sales. It is empowering the little guy way more than could be imagined in the past. Is that 100% of their revenue? No, but it is well above what anyone could hope for 10 years ago. You used to require hundreds of thousands of dollars in licenses to even see the tools used. People are getting good jobs training off these tools as we speak and releasing new innovative products.

I understand working conditions in the US sucks and I hold no bones about fixing them. The union is an infinite tool that will not stop at fixing engineering conditions. It has the ability to own the industry. That is not an outcome I want to see, I'd prefer to give 50% of my salary to whoever wants it than have a union tell me how to run what I do.
Here's probably a silly question: Shouldn't this work automatically? I just assumed they would have an intermediate CA or whatever it's called and have that certificate be signed by some widely trusted CA.

Or have they done it in a different way for security reasons?
You didn't refute GP, you refuted a strawman. And snidely.

"There is not conclusive evidence, however, to substantiate a clear relationship between the 65-year steady reduction in the top tax rates and economic growth."

However:

"However, the top tax rate reductions appear to be associated with the increasing concentration of income at the top of the income distribution."

Hard to believe.
I'm assuming that as populations become larger (more successful?) that the selection process becomes more diffuse. It's clear that sub-populations have evolved or acquired useful traits (particularly dietary adaptations) in relatively short timescales.

From TFA it appears that the original human population in Africa was pushed out of the interior by climate changes, it's not inconceivable that those conditions also provided evolutionary pressure
I read this like you had an obvious idea on solving the issue that the city could not think of, hence me asking just in case it was so.

I live in a neighbourhood not too far from park slope. You have to put your trash on the curb no matter what you live in and where in the city you live.
Garbage men dont even want to pick up the trash that falls from then while picking up trash from the curb so I find it incredulous that they enter your yard and take it from a bin.

Rebase + FF solves the spiderweb problem by removing the branches. But some insist on keeping the branches and I don’t get why a “git log” doesn’t have (and default) to showing important branches as straight lines.

Also with dozens of tiny commands but only a handful of actual desired outcomes, the high operations should be explicit commands. E.g “rebase this branch on master and then squash it and commit on master”.

A lot of the local/remote could also be hidden. The number of times I want to rebase on my local master which is behind origin by 2 commits is... zero.
Thanks so much for so much feedback!

There's already an issue to automatically add trailing parens and I definitely think it's a good idea, as balancing parens really is annoying in-shell. I didn't think of it before.

I decided that adding interactivity would be too much work, but you could definitely put together a oneliner (or alias) which achieves that using fzf: https://paweldu.dev/posts/fzf-live-repl/

Overall I encourage you to try write a tool that has the syntax you described, as it sounds plausible! It kinda looks a little bit like graphql, so maybe that would fit?
> That, as TFA explains, must flow from interactions during development.

That's true for any encoding of information. KC can only be defined relative to some computational model, and the actual number depends on the details of that model. It just so happens that there is a large family of models whose KCs are equal to within a multiplicative constant. But the actual number is never meaningful in isolation.
Nope. It's just pattern recognition.

> Also as usual, there's still a yawning gap between what domain experts are up to

The best homophone for AI is "beyond be yawned".

Comparitive analysis against refined/biased datasets with Kiptronics (knowledge is power electronics/devices) is going to change the world, but spectacular fodder is to be expected.
I assume they will just block the domain.
I explicitly choose it, it’s absolutely nothing to do with luck. Software freedoms are some of our most important freedoms.

All of us who know how to program and build good products have such a privilege.
Imagine you run a company that makes a million dollars a year in profit and that there is a flat 10% tax on that profit.

Run the thought experiment of what you'd do if that taxes doubled or halved.

I don't know about you, but in the case of taxes doubling I'd reduce my profit margin by investing in the business to increase top-line revenue and profit in the future rather than pay more taxes now.

If taxes halved, well, then I just take home more money now! Simple.

Granted, this is a massive over-simplification, but the basic principle holds: taxes on profit literally force businesses to decide between reinvestment and cashing out.
This is the wrong number. The average revenue per employee isn't what determines a wage, even when the employees are fully interchangeable: it's the marginal revenue brought in by each extra employee.
Scenario: Two people, quiet room, watching TV, each wearing their own Bluetooth headphones to listen together. As I understand Bluetooth audio standards, until now, this is impossible without additional hardware to split the source and allow multiple 1:1 pairings. Ugh.

Will this seemingly simple scenario be handled by Bluetooth LE Audio? I'm reading about its one-source:multi-sink capability with some hope.
Thanks for posting! I'll make sure to watch it!
That kind of reasoning wouldn’t make me feel better if I were the pedestrian who had to go to the hospital. You make it sound like bicycles are just an inherently bad thing to have around :)
They may have been though - there's talk of liquid helium tens+ of gigahertz (8-bit) processors being purpose built (in 2002). The National Cryptologic Museum next door to NSA HQ is a fascinating place and has some very cool displays to include a large disk changer and a piece of a cooling system.

> The lawsuit cites numerous news reports that point out similarities between Google’s new product features and systems that Sonos had already pioneered, including synchronizing audio across groups of speakers, adjusting the group volume, and setting up devices on a local wireless network.

This makes Sonos sound like a common patent troll. Sounds like sour grapes to me.

I remember iTunes doing synchronized audio well years ago and Sonos didn't make a peep.
Thats certainly my modus operandi - Load HN, hold down control, click on 'comments' links for articles I'm interested in.
I don't get it, if I watch an opus music on YouTube, will my headphone transmute opus into LC3? Why this indirection and overcompression?
Latency shouldn't exist at all with opus anyway, YouTube just has to send cached audio to the headphone.
Half of the websites using WebAssembly use it for malicious purposes
No. They're better run because they're more competitive and only the best-run firms survive. There is more pressure toward excellence, and pay reflects this.

Can you name me the 10th-best PC operating system maker? No, you can't, because there isn't one. Whereas I'm sure the management practices of a typical small-town pizza shop aren't great.

I'll grant that perhaps companies get lazy if they're monopolies but that doesn't last forever. I just think it's silly to suggest that companies in cutthroat, competitive industries are less high-performance than average, smaller firms.
So to allow this regulatory race to the bottom within a country or a market makes no sense to me at all. Only if the firm would move abroad would there be a net loss.

I think part of the trouble is that tax rates are very different across different states. If the US were to ban all state and local tax incentives, then that would very much hurt high-tax states, as they'd then have fewer tools left to compete with low-tax states in attracting businesses.
I'd heard that the Rust compiler can't compile itself on a 32 bit machine with maxed out RAM.

I know there have been some changes to shrink memory usage for a bunch of data types in Rust but it's not clear if that has changed this limitation.

I'm trying to learn Rust now, and one of my eventual goals is to look into heap analysis of the compiler, because I agree this is some bullshit.

I want to run stuff on ARM eventually and cross compilation and transfer don't sound like my idea of a good time.
I think if you want a glimpse into the future of competitive behavior as the population increases and climate change starts gnawing on the economy, look at the school systems in South Korea and China. Absolutely cutthroat from day one, because there are so many people competing for the same resources.
