Oh. This is great. Just tried it out a couple times on my 439 screenshots, and it works. I love it.

I wonder how well it'll scale to 10s of thousands of screenshots (especially the search).

Still, I'm wondering wether or not I should keep Notion around (only used it for web-clipping). Especially since Notion still can't search within pages and iOS now can do full-page screenshots.

Edit: except that on iOS, Safari's full-page screenshots are PDFs. Darn.
This was prominently shown in the first Vietkong game, including having to use just 20 round clips when using it to reduce the chance of fouling happening. Quite a nice touch.
“Plus the last thing my kid needs is more screentime. I don't want to have to sit next to them all night making sure that they are only doing 'productive' work.”

That was my German mother-in-law's rationale for not having a TV in the house while my husband and sister-in-law were kids. “I didn’t have enough time to watch and make sure everything they saw was appropriate.” To her, just because the program claimed to be for children meant that every minute of it (and commercials) was appropriate for her children.

I’m going to say it worked out well overall, because that family is way better at sitting down for calm, well-planned meals and just lounging in a quiet living room, talking to each other than my family is. Slight downside for my husband: he is absolutely incapable of tuning out the constantly-running TV my relatives use for background noise.
What about apollo dev tools?
This is absolutely awful advice.

Yes doing push ups with proper form will strengthen your core, but a lot of upper back pain is caused from tight pecs and lower delts which cause a hunch. Doing push ups would continue to tighten the pecs and contribute to back pain. They'd be counter productive for upper back pain, really.

Most people would probably get more back pain relief by laying face down on the floor for 10 minutes rather than doing 10 minutes of push ups.
>Biology seems much more brute force in comparison.

A singly honeybee with its billion synapses can adapt to a variety of situations and environments, learn on-the-fly, perform complex sequences of tasks, cooperate and communicate with other bees. All of these capabilities are emergent and packed in its tiny head.

State of the art artificial neural networks (ranging beyond billions of parameters now) only do the thing they're specifically built for, only after training with bazillion specific examples and consume tons of energy while doing so.

Which one of these sounds like the brute force approach?
I couldn't agree more. I think our entire tech interview system exists to find people who fit the role you defined above. I wrote a post on this describing my thoughts [1].

What's strange is so many companies brag about how they have "The Best" technical minds working for them. They pride themselves on their engineers' pedigrees. However, once they hire "The Best" they put a ton of process for those engineers to go through. Effectively this is a mechanism to be predictable and to let managers know more precisely when things will be done.

I don't see this changing in industry too quickly, simply because once a company gets past the founding stage, those companies hire engineers who can close tickets and work "effectively" rather than creatively.

You clearly have no idea. Lisp has a REPL. True REPL. No, it's not a thing where you type something into it and it blurts out something in return like in most other languages. And it's better than so much praised Jupyter notebooks.

Lisp REPL is connected to your editor, and from your editor or IDE you can not only examine and evaluate any expression and sub-expression, you can do it on the fly, it gives you immediate feedback. You don't even need to think about a debugger (which Lisps do have too). You can try things while writing them.

Imagine a landscape artist that changes the entire landscape in real-time with every stroke of his brush. That's how it feels to be programming in a Lisp.

I'm not an expert in this area, but from what I can tell:

Young rapidly growing forests sequester carbon more quickly than mature forests, but mature forests still sequester some carbon, possibly into the soil. (One source https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2008/09/080910133934.h... )
Separately, the regrown forest could be maintained in a state of peak carbon sequestration by doing selective logging from time to time, and as a bonus it would be profitable to do so.

Sarno comes up on HN with some frequency, and I never understood why. AFAIK there is no good evidence that the "tension myositis syndrome" he describes even exists, or that his treatments are much better than placebo. I one of his books, I think "The Mind/Body Connection", and found it to be very new-agey. It basically amounted to "be kind to yourself and forgive others and your body will feel better". Maybe there is some truth to that, but it's been decades without good evidence?
I recall hearing back in the day iPhones were newer and dedicated mobile webpages were a functional matter, and the iPhone lacked serious competitors some web storefronts would abuse browser charge higher prices for iPhone browsers because they read it as a signal for more disposable income/willingness to pay more.

The "luxury start" for a non-dedicated game device combined with the payment platform intergration of an app store was likely the original sin which turned the mobile game development culture that particular flavor of toxic. Of course that was also probably partly what got them developer buy in to their niche platform - the money.
The fact that it's not an easy thing should be appreciated when you look at how e.g. Brian Herbert's continuations of his father's writing were received, and is one of the reasons Rhianna Pratchett would rather write more video games (most notably the original Mirror's Edge and the latest Lara Croft reboots) than more Discworld.

I personally believe that it's not aging and death that are the disease, but our powerful fear and abuse of them.
Basically, yes. But not exactly, or at least, not as I understand it. Someone can be crazy-successful and be able to afford to take customers to a really nice place.

What makes it a “room with a chandelier” is when it is artifice, designed to impress those who mistake flash for function. And here is the kicker: They are trying to close the business while the “mark” is overwhelmed by the spectacle.

It’s a judgment call, in my opinion. If Tim Cook flew me to California and took me to his favourite place to talk about working at Apple, I wouldn't think he was trying to con me with opulence.

But of he just happened to have an employment agreement in his pocket, and would I care to sign it over the cigars and brandy... That would be buying something in a room with a chandelier.

Likewise, if a block-chain startup took its angel money and bought themselves a party at CES with an open bar... I’d look askance at my “VIP Invite.”

But if, during the party, all they said was, “Hey, keep us in mind if you or someone you know is looking...” well, that’s buying exposure, and maybe I’m not impressed, but they aren’t trying to sway me at the moment I’m making a decision, so it wouldn’t be buying something in a room with a chandelier.

100% bias in my characterization, as you can tell.
One thought that occurs to me is that large-scale structures like sheets and black holes with parallel axes of rotation could be the result large directional explosions soon after the big bang rather than the result of a large force acting now.

Attributing children's milk consumption to the "dairy lobby" is a simplistic view, verging on a conspiracy theory. Milk has been considered healthy for children since forever. It's not because of "pushing" by a "dairy lobby".
Most people suffer from lower back pain, example all of us sitting here days on end at the computer. Obviously for upper back pain, working your upper back is not a great idea. My point here is that most back pain is related to our sedentary lifestyle, and simple pushups alleviate a lot of it.
The problem with Aragorn in the films is that he is... An important protagonist.

And Storytelling 101 tells us that an important protagonist needs to have a character arc.

The thing is, Aragorn doesn't have a character arc in the LOTR books. His character is largely static. His entire arc was in the backstory, prior to the events of the books. By the time the book starts, he knows exactly what he wants, he knows exactly what he's willing to do to get it, and he does it.

The film, in order to give him an arc, muddied those waters. He turns from being a noble, confident, driven man, into a wishy-washy one-foot-in-one-foot-out wandering stoner, who spends most of his time moping, and the rest with no idea of what he wants, or what he should do to get it.

It makes for character development, but it is not an accurate portrayal of his book character. Much of his nobility in the books comes from him not having these kinds of hangups - he knows what the right thing to do is, and he does it, and people around him are awed by his conviction and charisma.

I usually don't like 'great man' stories, but I have a soft spot for his part in the LOTR books.

What useful science has been achieved in the last 100 years thanks to astronomy?

Meanwhile, what kind of useful science do you think can be facilitated by globally accessible high-speed internet? The value generated by such a network is clearly orders of magnitude more useful than observing the cosmos, at this juncture of human endeavor. Not too mention that Starlink will allow SpaceX to re-invest more and more money into space launches / space travel. I'd much prefer humans actually visit other celestial bodies rather than just staring at them.
Fair enough. There's no such thing as a universal now. I should have said "No information about a supernova event has reached us."
Not being a legal scholar, I won’t make a distinction between felony and misdemeanor.

What I will say is that just as computers are a force-multipler for getting important stuff done, they are also a force-multiplier for causing harm. As the old saying goes: “to er is human, to really foul up requires a computer”.

This leak did not endanger just one or two people, which would be bad enough, but 4000. Even if the remedy is limited to a fine sufficient for each affected person to change their names and address, it is still a more serious harm than almost anything normal intuition will help with because of how many were involved.

I wish that being in the sex industry was socially neutral for men and women and that nobody would be assaulted or insulted for it. I don’t know why that isn’t the case already, but I do recognise that it isn’t — and given that it isn’t, this leak is still extremely likely to result in someone getting hurt.
I only ever write on a computer. I own a single pen which I have not needed to replace since I moved into my apartment in 2016. I'm pretty sure I last used it in November, when I had to fill out a form for jury duty.

The article cite studies that handwriting is linked to brain development, and reading on paper improves memory, and so on... I'm certainly not in a position to refute those studies, but I have to wonder how complete they are. People once denounced the printing press for causing us to loose our memories, and as a population, we do in fact have worse memories than scholars during the Middle Ages. If we taught intensive memory training in school, memory would likely improve, but do you think that would be an ideal use of student time?

Maybe handwriting is a magical art that improves brain function across the board, but I'm going to need a lot more evidence before I believe that. In the meantime, we should be teaching the skills that people need in today's world, and that overwhelmingly means typing.
Isn't this just describing building a small but fancy subway system? Honest question: what's the novel "wow" factor that I'm missing?
Absolutely! Been powerlifting consistently now for about 4 years and the best thing for my back has been making it (and my entire posterior chain) stronger. If and when I do get some minor tweak, I focus on slow, really deep squats and hyperextensions which gets the blood flowing and usually resolves any issues pretty quick.
The "wow" factor is that Musk's name is associated with it. Nothing more.
It's so dry but so good. I read it on my vacation this summer (after Huckleberry Finn). What made it interesting for me was to understand the work itself and the context JRR was working in. There are references to Saxon and Finnish mythology in many of the stories. I recommend reading it alongside his collected letters; some of the explanations he made for things are enriched by his correspondences.
Where would these directional explosions come from?
My experience exactly, although I can't narrow it down to the deadlift. I had occasional but regular low back pain starting in my early-to-mid twenties. There wasn't a consistent relationship with my level of activity or inactivity, the type of exercise I did, or with my weight, all of which fluctuated quite a lot over the years. Back pain was just something I got regularly, like colds or headaches. I've had virtually no back pain (other than muscle soreness and a couple of sports injuries) since I started lifting heavy weights, which is not the usual progression for somebody from their twenties to their forties.

It's incredibly counterintuitive. Everyone's assumption, if they don't lift weights themselves, is that my case is some kind of weird exception or coincidence, and I can't really blame them. I have no idea how to explain that there's a good chance that they are misusing their back, and that they would be more comfortable sitting, standing, walking around, and lying down if they strengthened the muscles in their back. First of all, why in the world would we need to learn how to use our own bodies as adults; don't we figure this out as toddlers? And second of all, if we spend hours every day sitting down, hours every night lying down, and maybe hours every day walking around and jogging, why in the world would our backs not be strong enough to do those things safely and comfortably? Isn't doing something for hours at a time exactly the right signal to prepare your body for doing that thing?

But it seems to be a very common experience for people who try lifting weights: they find that they are much more comfortable sitting at their desk at work and lying down in their bed at home if they lift heavy things on their feet at the gym. I wish I knew how to convince people to try it.
Ha ha, good find, thanks! Sure there is a lot of generalization in these reports, but still I found their description of my personality type quite spot-on and recognizable, and hence useful to me. (And I don't believe in astrology and the whole supernatural shebang :)

PS The whole follow-up with team communication, organization impact etc. was not for me.
That would certainly be a viable middle ground, but I simply don't find the in-editor popup to be distracting. I find a good many things distracting while working, but I actually like the autocomplete popups.
This. When I say OSX Tiger after sufffering Windows 98 (and having KDE3 in parallel) I was amazed, that doesn't look vaporwave at all. If anything, Amiga OS 3.1 and before is vaporwave. OSX Tiger was "UI done right".
I agree, but I still think of this as a useful part of a complete solution. It's something that buys us time to shift away from fossil fuels.

With current tech, we could drastically reduce emissions by moving to a mix of nuclear (the modern, safe kind) for baseload plus wind and solar for peak, but it's going to take few decades to build it all out, and during the intervening period we have a lot of excess CO2 we need to sequester.
So Java is basically getting structs. Seems awesome.
This is awesome! I think these initiatives are urgently needed, especially in the case of pulse oximeters and electrocardiograms.

For both, the components (of medical quality) are extremely cheap, but there aren't any clinically validated open source devices in the market. I think they're relative low-hanging fruits in biomedical engineering, and they have a lot of impact potential.

I really think open source medical devices are the future, I would love to see more biomedical engineers and doctors excited about this.

Does anyone know if there is a roadmap for their pulse oximeter/ECG? I would love to collaborate remotely.
...ground based detectors...

When I encounter this phrase I think of things like the neutrino detector in Antarctica, which of course isn't affected by satellites at all. How much contemporary astronomy relies on visible-light telescopy?

Not only this -- but it renders you quite useless if you ever have to use a different environment. Sometimes that's because you have to use a different language that doesn't have as much tooling, sometimes its because a product gets discontinued, or your employer forces a different IDE, etc.

I definitely had this experience with CodeWarrior back in the day. I really loved that IDE. But then when Mac OS X came out and Objective-C became the native language, the tools weren't there yet, and I had to either program "alone" without autocomplete/fancy dynamic highlighting/etc, or use Project Builder (the predecessor to Xcode), which was lacking in all these departments. I found myself much slower, and not for the obvious reason of "of course, I'm missing all these great tools", but as you say, slower at things I knew I used to be fast at. It's kind of like discovering that no, you don't like broccoli, you actually just like the melted cheese on top. That was a big moment for me deciding to focus on generally applicable skills vs. IDE-specific skills.

Interestingly enough, I think this legitimately doesn't apply to a lot of people because they spend most, if not all, their career in one domain. In that environment I think learning IDE-specific things makes a lot of sense. I discovered that this wasn't for me and move around a lot, so its nicer to not be dependent on those things.
It's worth it because it catches a lot of low-hanging bugs at a small cost, and it's well maintained and has great tools support. Plus you can even use it like a simple linter if you want to continue writing vanilla Javascript (it catches less, but still catches a lot).
Isn’t the Tesla just an electric car?

Musk as a company leader means a lot. I’m sure a lot of other people had the idea for a “Tesla” before there was Tesla. Or the idea of self-landing rockets.
Exactly!! I always do the stuff that most people would think is the WORST thing to do when your back hurts - like hyperextensions, deadlifts, etc.

I suppose a home user desktop machine still uses Windows Update, and therefore downloads updates with an embedded Edge.
That statement in the article makes no sense in the context of other stated facts in the article. And seems to be simply untrue. [1] It's a contract with the Las Vegas Convention Center.

"LVCC Loop will connect the LVCC New Exhibit Hall with the existing campus (North/Central/South Halls). Three stations locations (see map below) will offer convenient access between key LVCC destinations and nearby transportation connections."

Getting around Vegas in general is a pain. What transportation systems there are aren't integrated. And individual casinos/conference centers are so sprawling that, as this project shows, you practically (or do) need transit systems just to get around a single property.

ADDED: The Boring Company page shows "conceptual future expansion" to a ton of other locations. Those other locations include Los Angeles so I'll leave it to readers to judge how realistic those are.
