This is the confusing thing about hidroxychloroquine right now. Two people looking at the same data, one saying it’s helping and one saying it’s doing nothing.
In this case, it is a bit easier to deduce a successful result, in that the patient survives death versus having a tumor shrink in size.
It reduces code duplication at the cost of increasing complexity and error-prone-ness, and there are ways to reduce the duplication. For example, given the following snippets:

switch ($foo) {
case 123:
// do 1
case 23:
// do 2
default:
// do 3
}

if ($foo == 123) {
do1();
do2();
do3();
}
else if ($foo == 23) {
do2();
do3();
}
else {
do3();
}

Yes, the second one is more verbose and duplicates code, but I think it's also far more clear in terms of intention.
On a somewhat related note, why does the Google STT engine have a grudge against the word "o'clock"?

If you say "start at four" it gives you the text "start at 4." So far so good, but if you say "start at four o'clock" you just get "start at 4" again, not "start at 4:00" like you wanted. In fact you can say the word o'clock over and over for several seconds and it will type absolutely nothing.

Yes and no. A database is just a layer. Using a dedicated database and storing your data in it is simple. But nothing prevents you from storing the data (including relevant metadata) outside of it, and use the database just as a caching-layer for it superior abilities in it's own realm.

Dividing layers is of course more work and has problems of it's own, but works well enough that AFAIK this org-roam here is doing under the hood too.

Right! I had a bug in a SQL statement to fetch tasks “order by priority” and then execute them in that order. A stupid mistake, but I must have looked at that code tens of times and I just couldn’t spot it. The bug was that that statement found then executed the lowest priority items first.

It’s not clear to me that an “order by” should have a default direction. I don’t know why one direction is more likely to be used than the other. Without a default, I would have been forced to think about the direction and wouldn’t have had that bug.

> Why can't he hire people on a fixed term contract to avoid unemployment?

There are laws about what constitutes contractors vs employees - both federal and state. If you satisfy N out of M items in a checklist, you are an employee, regardless of whether both parties want you to be.

Controlling how you do your job is one of them. If the employer directs how you can do the job and doesn't give you freedom to do it your own way, that's a major item.

If your employer doesn't let you bring your own equipment, that's another one.

If you do not have a chance of losing money on the contract, that's another one. Say you hire a contractor to repair your roof, and he screws it up. Typically he is expected to fix it even if he ends up with a net loss (or he can refuse and not get paid at all). When an employee screws up, the worst that will happen is he'll get fired.

And so on.

It's very unlikely these people can be contractors unless he's hiring experienced folks who know the equipment.
Why is that? What would be your language of choice?
There's a risk of phishing by editing Wikipedia articles if the plugin gets popular. Perhaps it's useful to crosscheck the current URL against the 24-hour earlier and 48-hour earlier versions of the same article. Crosscheck back in time, not back in revision, since one can spam the history by making a lot of edits.
This is pretty impressive. Do you have any sources?
Ask HN: Why are the apple id passwords limited to a max amount of 63 chars?
I spent yesterday some time rotating my passwords and I found out that the Apple Id passwords are limited to 63 characters maximum.

Googling, I found nothing about this topic.

Then I went to the Apple StackExchange (probably not the right place) to ask about it without success (https://apple.stackexchange.com/q/387364/263000).

I'd like to see the potential technical reasons why a company would go for such design - rather than needing anyone from Apple sharing such internal details (as the guy at StackExchange replied).

Thanks!
How are you going about it?
Not quite. In Draw Something you draw something and someone else has to guess what it is. You each take turns in guessing and drawing.

Instead in ScribbleX you create a single drawing together with your friends. It's kind of like a collaborative drawing only that no one knows what the final drawing will look like until the very end when it is revealed.
deployment using rclone is really convenient, releasing packages could be synced into a bucket, and then from the bucket into servers.

rclone also works smoothly with CI servers.
I use Zim Wiki and Joplin. Still learning note-taking though.

Additionally, I use Pocket to save webpages. Later when I re-read them, I extract useful info from them & save them in my note-taking tools.
The assignments in the old course are in matlab. There are also unofficial assignments available in python. They can also be submitted for grades in coursera. You might want to have a look at them.
If you think that's punishment then you haven't suffered enough. I've seen enough custom written config formats in my life that choosing a widely supported format like YAML or JSON is always the right choice. YAML may have warts but you can learn them in 10 minutes and you're done. Those custom configuration formats don't even have a name or documented syntax.
Hello!

This Jacobo, cofounder of Arengu, today we are launching Arengu in Product Hunt and I’ve also decided to write a blog post telling you about our journey building Arengu from scratch, the idea behind it and our vision. I hope this could inspire and help other founders!

As a quick context, Arengu is a SaaS that helps you to build all your sign-up logic without coding and streamline user onboarding by using your existing APIs or authentication systems.

A few highlights:

- Drag & drop editor: Build flows and forms in no time & with no code.

- Use cases templates: Registration flows, adaptive sign-up flows, passwordless flows, OTP email/SMS flows, social login, etc.

- Low-code: Reduce development time, maintenance & costs.

- Stack agnostic: Integrate it with any stack.

Read my blog post talking about how we've built Arengu from scratch, our story and vision: https://blog.arengu.com/arengu-the-brain-behind-signup-forms...

Also if you are a Product Hunt user, do not miss our launch at: https://www.producthunt.com/posts/arengu

I would love to receive any kind of feedback from you!
Just tested over Tor and it works: piratebayztemzmv.onion

P.S. Yes, it's their new official "readable" onion site link.
The software has been built already. We might have minor updates.

There are other operations that you can help with, like blurring beneficiary faces using opencv before posting them on the internet. You can read more on the website.

Fancy literature but in the end it says little. There is a simple way to put it. Sometimes an era has missed some of the innovations it could have done and spends too much time caring only about the core technology but it might be beneficial to stay a little more and innovate on the general design rather than just the core technology.

I'm also learning Godot, it's great fun! Although I'm making something less ambitious than you, I just more or less finished a 'brickbreaker' type game. (more or less, all logic is in place but just 2 levels).

Also, no one asked, but I went with Godot instead of Unity because it was the only one I could get running without _any_ issue on Debian.
Some Programming Languages Used in Learning Hacking
Most authors will sacrifice some amount of "realism" in the interests of story-telling (compared to Yudkowsy with HPMOR at least). A couple of Magic examples come to mind:
* Brandon Sanderson does a lot of Magic impacting Physics. The magic is often proper unexplained magic - but it's impact on Physics is pretty well modeled. In the most recent Mistborn book - there's a remark that explains that when the character magically reduces their weight while flying through the air - their velocity increases. I think Brandon points to that - but says that he loves the consequences at that level - getting to the point of red-shift/blue-shift for bubbles of fast/slow time is story breaking. See also his laws of magic: https://www.brandonsanderson.com/sandersons-first-law/
* Pat Rothfuss in the Kingkiller chronicles has a magic called "Sympathy" where rule 3 is "The law of conservation".
The actual posts were slightly better, but the comments were much better. Often you’d have some sort of silly joke but the comments would have extensive, detailed discussion by people who knew their stuff on tangential topics.

I'm deploying all my self hosted stuff to k8s and setting up with what I need to sell to other people. I think I've managed to pick a setup which is going to scale well horizontally which feels pretty good. It's going pretty well so far, will probably write it up and maybe even look at selling accounts after the fact. It has been a fun skills update.
”Kamino is one of my favorites for anything cloning or duplicating related for example.”

That seems almost straight out of https://github.com/Droogans/unmaintainable-code (which has good anti-hints on naming)

If you can’t resist the urge to be a bit playful, use xerox for such a thing. Way more people would get that.
YAML isn't a markup language and that's why the name is now "YAML ain't markup language".
Efficiency is not the issue, it’s energy being used that wouldn’t need to be if the items were produced locally.
Interesting! I seem to recall that not all to long ago a lot of things would completely break if you tried to use a case-sensitive filesystem.
The main issue with this viewpoint and your (arguably sensationalist) article is that it just finger points & blatantly ignores the reason those protections are in place.

The number of people that consider Discord part of their threat model or an actual privacy risk is incredibly tiny compared to the number of users that get inconvenience by mass bot raids & people bypassing IP bans.

I help manage a medium-sized Discord guild and we were randomly targeted by a bot raid whereby ~100 bots joined in the span of 1 minute and proceeding to spam various channels and the DMs of our users. Enabling Discord's requirement for a verified phone number stopped the raid in its tracks and allowed us to clean up without further issue.

In the same way, Discord's automatic content scanning is designed to protect the large percentage of minors on the platform & proactively deal with potentially exploitative material + guilds (per https://blog.discordapp.com/discord-transparency-report-apri...)

Removing these features & restrictions in order to appease your extreme edge-case privacy views does not help the average Discord user in the slightest.
Since pluralsight is free this month (no affilition), I've decided to take up some machine learning courses on there.

> To me, it makes perfect sense to use a(i) instead of a[i].

I disagree. Square brackets links to memory, paren just returns data. Of course you could implement the paren function to return a reference, but it makes the code a lot harder to read since that is not the normal case. See comparison:

a[i] = 3;

or

a(i) = 3;
Google has been downranking sites based on copyright takedown requests since 2018 at least [0]. And it's been very hard to find torrent sites or streaming sites through Google since then in my experience.

As many have pointed out, this just makes it easier for actually malicious sites to get traffic.

It’s not an either/or.
Oh! That’s super interesting — what are some examples of this happening?
I'm not sure! There's a good amount of material that I've never dealt with before, so I'm sure there will be parts where I go relatively slowly. I also have a day job, so I only spend time with the book when I feel up for it. It's kind of an open-ended thing for me right now.
Hospitals aren't going to sink or swim depending on whether they can save 10-15c per face mask, and being the U.S. they probably charge the patient $10/mask regardless.
The Stand Down
I outsource chores.
Went to the market today on the west side and it was probably 50-50 masks, maybe more masks than not. I think our sample sizes are just too low to draw exact numbers but its still much higher than last week.
> Rich people like money too

While that's trivially true rich people like money less than poor people -- simply because of diminishing returns. If I hand a homeless person $100 they'll be a lot happier with that than if I hand Bill Gates or Jeff Bezos $100.

If we do allow people with antibodies to work then for a poor person getting the virus might save them from starvation or homelessness or any one of a thousand terrible things that happen if you run out of money. If you have even the smallest amount of money saved up on the other hand it's not really worth risking your life since you won't end up malnourished or on the street in either case.
In America, it’s more profitable and glamorous to make fake startup companies like Snapchat, or yet another Todo app, than to make boring facemasks and N95 respirators.

Like, when was the last time a pandemic ever happened? Pshh.. not my problem.

the password thing that just creates the account and connects them is how it should be IMO

this is cool i may contribute to the code. super busy though. I love IRC, and we have many challenges to face but this is the right direction

saw your last posts on your acc. keep up the good work. how can we all help tho?>
Forgive me if this is a bit morbid, but we are lucky as computer scientists and engineers to have a largely "living history" over the last century of innovation.

Documentation is great in some respects but we should try and go out of our way to interact and cherish the pioneers of early computing more before they pass on.

What do I mean by "more"; when we have forums, mailgroups, IRC, conferences etc.?

I guess more books, more interviews and more documentation.

One thing I like to do with junior developers is when I see them using a terminal command that they just copy and pasted from stackoverflow, I try and coach them to read up about it on manpages or documentation online, so they can get a better feel of what the history was behind that tool.
Ventilators aren’t a panacea for a pandemic like coronavirus
Do they support org-babel? Agenda? Org-roam or org-rifle?

Org-mode is not just a markup-language. The actual value comes from all the tools and business-logic working ontop of the markup. And replicating this quite hard in the short time org-modes fame has spreaded yet.
Show HN: Launching on PH- Business Networking App: Meet New Customers Nearby
I made a C-like scripting language
most important is to come from a place of respect and to talk about the issue, not about the person. it should be about solving the problem together. never about pointing blame.

when i was still stuck in relationships that didn't work, most discussions were always about "who did (or did not do) what and why that was terrible".
these days we talk about what problems we face, what we tried, how they didn't work and ask each other advice on how to deal with the situation.

i had to learn to be more humble and own up to my faults (that was hard). i also had to learn to reign in my temper when i was getting frustrated. (that felt impossible, but turns out to be easy when the discussions are not personally directed)

and another thing that has a huge impact on our communication: we validate, compliment or appreciate each others efforts constantly. we talk more about the good stuff than about the bad stuff, and that really makes a difference.

and lastly: allow each other personal space when needed

i know this is not really "new knowledge". every talk or tutorial about communication will tell you similar things. but it is what works for us.
Is there any framework that explicitly allows me to set properties instead of just attributes? It doesn't play nice with web components when the object you passed in comes out as a string "[object Object]".
People in the Python ecosystem have come up with plenty of new things over the years - eggs, wheels, conda, poetry... Coming up with something new is the easy bit. Getting everyone to agree that a new thing is better and stop using/recommending other things is much harder - almost impossible, if those other things serve some use cases fairly well.

The fragmented ecosystem is one of the main complaints about Python packaging today. And that's really tricky, because the main way the open source world knows to solve problems is to create new tools, and that doesn't help when the problem is 'too many tools'.
When my spouse asks me to do something as a favor, I do it, then tell her it's done and then tell her she doesn't owe me a favor because I love her.
It's a noble idea, but a problem with writing-only constructed languages is that they can only map one-to-one for natural languages if the word order is the same. The example sentence in that article is a good mapping to the English form of the sentence "I want to go to the theatre," but what if your native language is Japanese and you're used to saying "theatre to want to go" (with the personal pronoun implied)? You have to learn new rules about word ordering in sentences, and at that rate you might as well go ahead and learn the full new language. Perhaps Bliss has considered this issue and has an answer for it (can the symbols be written in any order according to the writer's native language?) but I don't see a solution for it mentioned in that Wikipedia article.
How on ever could Apple police this? Seems unlikely to me.
I also think, it doesn't work well for conferencing... Last/First time we used it, the annotation tool just stopped updating, colleague was drawing and I was: "I don't see anything" (and then everyone: yeah me too). Also I'm wondering, why it send the "foreign" screen in fusll res (WQHD), but at a measly 4 fps with crappy compression...

After this my personal impression is that it is just an obtrusive piece od adware, which happens to behave like a rootkit in some parts...
Security tips while working from home
Great comment; agree all the way. But I do think that it lost the specifics here so I want to highlight them:

Stitches are very easy to administer. Nobody needs a uni degree to stitch up a wound. They need lots of practice.

It is impossible for a reasonably free market to charge $5,000 for 3 stitches; because an independent doctor would set up next door with a sign saying "Stitches; $4,500!" and drive home in his Lamborghini every day. The hospital and the independent doctor would then start undercutting each other until the margins were no longer outrageous and they have to think a bit before dropping their prices any further.

If a hospital can get away with charging $5k for 3 stitches, any market freedom has long ago been exorcised.
I started it couple of months ago, but couldn't get past the first few chapters. It was too dry for my taste. Even though she's a brilliant scientist (I'd recommend checking her classic The Limit to Growth), it seemed like the earlier resources about the topic are much better explained rather than the newer stuff.
"Withered" is a really weird word to use here since all of these old-and-cheap parts are cheap only because they're massively widely used. I think a better translation would be "commodity parts".

In fact later in the article it says "This was a poor translation of the original, which was much closer in spirit to ‘weathered.’" It seems to me that the use of the term in the headline was deliberately obfuscating clickbait. :/

That said, I always love seeing the ways that Nintendo manages to think outside the box and do genuinely new, fun things with far less.
Italy has hordes of feral cats so does Spain.
