I want all of these features in a phone without the rotary part:

* Real, removable antenna with an SMA connector. Receptions is excellent, and if I really want to I could always attach a directional antenna.

* When I want a phone I don't have to navigate through menus to get to the phone "application". That's bullshit.

* If I want to call my husband, I can do so by pressing a single dedicated physical key which is dediated to him. No menus. The point isn't to use the rotary dial every single time I want to make a call, which would get tiresome for daily use. The people I call most often are stored, and if I have to dial a new number, or do something like set the volume, then I can use the fun and satisfying-to-use rotary dial.

* Nearlt instantaneous, high resolution of signal strength and battery level. No signal metering lag, and my LED bargraph gives 10 increments of resolution instead of just 4.

* The ePaper display is bistatic, meaning it doesn't take any energy to display a fixed message.

* When I want to change something about the phones behavior, I just do it.

* The power switch is an actual slide switch. No holding down a stupid button to make it turn off and not being sure it really is turning off or what.

What's the problem with families? My local Uber-equivalent will have and provide child booster seats if requested (as did many but not all "pre-app" taxi service providers), and for infants there are also a bunch of solutions depending on their age; one of them (perhaps not the best, just anecdotal example) is the combo carriage+car seat, where I can put the "carriage wheels" in the trunk and put the baby in the car safely without even waking them up, crucially, it can be done in any car or taxi, and I've taken taxi rides with a baby this way.

It does require some planning (and some support from the service providers) but it's definitely a solvable issue, if the people would want to do that, then it can be arranged.
Promoting diverse and inclusive ways of thinking is a buzzword now?

This seems dangerous, if it leads to unwarranted complacency among those who take the number seriously. Do you know the rationale behind reporting a number known to be skewed in this way -- is the idea that it is roughly canceled out by other factors (e.g. the number of undiagnosed mild cases) that push toward an overestimate?
Let's be specific: chapter 11 (reorganization) and chapter 7 (liquidation) are completely different.
The original site yourdatafitsinram.com is now a get rich quick scheme site.

Also, the site that remained wasn't ever updated. So I took some time and updated some links.

"don't need to" is a weird metric. You "don't need to" very many things.
I clicked through a Étoilé's overview page, and the screenshots were from ~2008 (with a system UI panel opening showing a 2.6 kernel!). It made me question how alive the project is.
It's really surprising to me that psychoactive chemicals are so common in the natural world. Why do so many chemicals designed for pretty unrelated roles have effects on human brains? I would naively expect that to happen approximately never.

Even if I believed you - which I absolutely don’t - it’s completely irrelevant.

The intent of my government or of a foreign government has almost zero bearing on my life, for the life of any other average American – someone who does not have a secret clearance, is not committing major felonies, etc.

What matters is material condition, and the ability of that government to project force and change a person’s material condition.

If Chinese intelligence knows who my weed dealer is, or that I on occasion drive my car faster than the posted speed limit, agents of the MSS aren’t going to tail my car and pull me over. If proof that I’m pirating DVDs hits the great firewall I’m not going to get an email threatening me with legal action.

I don’t care if my government really thinks that weed purchases should be illegal or that driving 5 over the speed limit is a societal crisis or that pirating DVDs is a moral wrong: I care that they can project force against me and impact my life.
It also frustrates me that phones are slippery by default and have buttons on the sides which parents inevitably push by accident when receiving a phone to look at photos.
It's easy to lose track of in the face of scene graph vector formats like svg but you have to remember canvas + javascript can be thought of as a procedural cad system, that is, the epitome of drawing tools.

The svg is a static weak alternative to true procedural generation.

For reference the postscript language is the same way. hand written procedural postscript is an amazing drawing tool.

I believe they came about as a result of the Online Travel Agencies (OTAs). The hotel doesnt have to split any of the resort fee with the OTA, unlike the the room rate.
Thanks for the local perspective! I get the feeling MWC is a bit of a scapegoat here, tough.

> When MWC is ocurring in Barcelona, public transport (subway) goes on strike (because of the maximum impact).

So won't they just choose any other date with the next highest impact for their strike now? Why is that better?

> BCN is already overloaded with tourism, events like MWC only make it worse for those of us that live there.

100.000 visitors for 4 days, that must be less than 1% of Barcelona's hotel nights/year. It's also happening during off-season, so shouldn't lead to more housing capacity being taken away from the locals.

I get when people complain about the Olympics in their city or other costly events with unclear rewards, but this seems pretty harmless?
I was replying specifically to when you said "Also this is a novel virus which means this strain is new and may be unpredictable. Mutations may occur." I interpreted that as meaning that because of our lack of knowledge about this strain and the fact that it may mutate, some unspecified amount of additional concern is warranted.

I developed some widgets for interactive books in primary and secondary education. We had different quiz widgets (multiple choice, etc) but also drag and drop stuff and other types of widgets. The people in editorial producing the books configured the widgets using custom HTML tags. It worked very well. As long as they knew HTML they could configure these widgets.

The problem is that anything that is easy to produce and configure with a set of options is going to be very limited.

It is certainly possible to create an environment for producing mechanical and physical simulations with visual tools but it would not be trivial to develop.
Are people trying to get in and out before the crash to make a quick buck, or are they long and hope to buy at a position cheaper than hypothetical post-recovery prices?

You can fit 48 TB on a HPE MC990 X though I'm pretty sure that's got one of those NUMA architectures that SGI had with the UV 3000 or whatever.

I remember jokingly telling my team to spend the millions of dollars we did expanding our clusters with one of these and just processing in RAM. I honestly don't think I did the analysis to make sure it would be actually better.

It was 'jokingly' because we couldn't afford three of these machines anyway. The clusters had the property that we could lose some large fraction of nodes and still operate, we could expand slightly sub-linearly, etc. which are all lovely properties.

It would have been neat, though. Ahhhh imagine the luxury of just loading things into memory and crunching the whole thing in minutes instead of hours. Gives me shivers.
IIRC, the largest IBM z15 can have up to 40 TiB of RAM.

The website needs updating.
>the most common result (by a large margin) of a test failing was someone would update the expected file/image so it would pass with the new visuals
Previous solutions that my team developed ended up like this. We found the problem can be split in two:

1. Figuring out if some change is actually wanted/expected

We found that doing a d-hash + hamming distance (levenshtein) is a very good way to handle tolerance, as it will ignore most text and subtle layout changes, but unlike most examples the screenshot is scaled down to 200px wide (this number is arbitrary, we're still figuring out how much tolerance it does provides).

2. How to handle this changes

This is the hard part. For now we are only selecting the images that failed in the previous step and by using some jenkins plugins they are presented during the pipeline side by side (old, diff, new) and are reviewed manually, but the versioning process is automatized and the results are stored in the changelog.
The "mental models" stuff just seems like gobbledygook. Hadfield is giving regular kind of advice you read everywhere from Sun Tzu to John Wooden:

Gold bullion.
I'm normally in line with many of your arguments rayiner, (they're usually well supported by data which I like), but in reading through this particular thread in its entirety, it does appear that you've done a little goal post moving.

Just as a matter of full disclosure, I feel that the absence of middle class families does not make an area any more unhealthy than the absence of, say, poor black families makes an area unhealthy. This is very much just a personal opinion here, but every demographic in a nation does not have to be proportionately represented in a community for that community to be "healthy".
For the true pure "EEE" experience. they would need to be pushing us back towards some other MS product.

Embrace git. Extend git. Extinguish git. Everyone is tired of git and just goes to Microsoft VSCode Repos.

With "gh" in theory they could do that: get everyone using a custom tool... and while no one is paying attention, change out the backing infrastructure to use MS Repos Tool. And you wont even notice because gh was built to make the transition seamless. (I doubt this is truly the case because there is a lot of automated tooling that uses git that would break in that case)

And now when you decide you want to pull your code off github to go to gitlab, it becomes too much of a hassle.
This is what I was feeling the other week with the last discussion but the core issue is a bad tool. Use a better client side tool that doesn't generate a new hash on every let's encrypt update. When that happens you only touch the domain settings one time.

Ask HN: Do you think Facebook will survive the privacy controversies?
This. The time and effort it takes to put such a visualization together for a target audience that might possibly just gloss over the content is immense. Its like making a multi-million dollar movie about people who have no money just to show thier situation. Instead of giving them the money directly. And on top of that you need all the requirements to actually be able to view it in the latest browser.
You could also go Google searches via SMS.

I've seen a lot of folks criticizing Lambda. As far as I can tell, they actually offer a chance at a much better life, with no upfront fees - something even accredited and reputable universities are unwilling to offer.

That would be the CALEA access that the US Government has to telecomm networks. Google "The Athens Affair" for another sordid episode of CALEA access getting abused. The only question now is "Was the USA or China getting access to Athens' telecomm network?"

Also, the direct implication is that the "golden key" sought by our own FBI and Attorney General Barr for every encryption system would be abused for access by intelligence agencies the world over.
> You’re committing a logical fallacy here. Avoiding driving on those roads is only a mitigation if the accident rate is highly disproportional to their usage.

You're right in spirit. I actually addressed this in passing in the comment "an incredibly simple mitigation you're probably already doing". Rural roads carry less traffic than non-rural roads for the very obvious reason that most people don't live in rural areas. The disparity is documented: https://www.ncsl.org/research/transportation/traffic-safety-...

We can also note that freeway vehicle-miles (excluded from this rural roads statistic) are going to be an inflated share of driven miles precisely because the purpose of the freeway is to cover long distances.

But as to the specific number I provided ("more than a third"), you're on target in accusing me of a fallacy.

Nobody is proposing we get rid of the secondary market, so you can stop proposing that straw man argument.

It makes sense total sense to compare, it's another respiratory virus, from a family of viruses already known. We must not reinvent the wheel when we know the dynamics of these viruses and the countermeasures to take.

The key metric that determines whether COVID-19 can establish and generate a sustained outbreak is it's ability to reproduce, "R", which represents the average number of individuals to which each transmitter transmits the virus.

- If "R" is greater than 1, the transmission may become sustained;
- If “R” is less than 1, then the transmission will simply dissipate.

In the current outbreak, it represents an R of 2.2 [1], meaning that on average each patient has been spreading infection to 2.2 other people.

Only a little bit more than half of the infections should be avoided so that R falls below 1. Preventive isolation and the measures established by the protocols should be sufficient.

Besides, there is little evidence to suggest the presymptomatic transmission of COVID-19

It's bad for GCC, but good for C++ developers. GCC and MSVC will die and there will be only one compiler on all platforms (which is also the best one).

Just have a look at Chrome and Firefox. They already use Clang on all platforms. On Windows they are working on replacing link with lld. Android has deprecated GCC completely. In the future it's gonna be clang + lld + libc++ all the way. And yeah, GDB and WinDbg will also be replaced by LLDB.
part of that rumor is that it will still be larger than the current SE model... 4.7" IIRC (the article I think says that towards the bottom).

> Almond milk is great for you, but it doesn't taste as good as real almonds, so why drink it?

Because there are some foods that only make sense with a milk substance added (eg cereal). Almond milk, alone, isn't very ... tasty. Usually there are variants (sweetened, vanilla, chocolate) because it's not great. Almonds are also terrible for the environment, vis a vis water conservation, given what it takes to grow them.

I currently prefer Flaxseed milk.

Gmail Using GrowingIO Beijing Based Analytics Company
