This kind of concern-trolling on threads like this gets really tiresome.

Anyone in such a role where they will be fitting ventilators to people (i.e., highly educated, experienced and employed in a critical care role) will understand that this is outside of standard practice and that extra caution will need to be taken and considerations made for the different functionality and behaviour of the machine.

Can't we just appreciate the spirit of inventiveness in a crisis, without having to spoil it by fretting about issues that any grown adult working with this stuff will be fully capable of considering?
I don’t think it’s appropriate for society to expect police to also behave as mental health care professionals. We don’t want to spend the money on mental healthcare facilities and don’t want to create a legal framework for involuntary committing of people, but we do want to blame police for not being able to handle society’s mentally ill.
I'm looking forward to checking this out. It looks promising.

A data scientist would be expected to understand how databases work. They want the applicant to respond back and say why that response doesn't make sense so they can weed out the 99% of people who apply to jobs on Indeed that are unqualified. It's also a good barometer of the applicants temperament. 300 IQ move.

The alternative explanation, that they're unable to hire people with the name 'Jeffrey' (and know exactly what the problem is but don't fix it), is just too absurd to actually be true. If one of their systems actually had this limitation they would have started naming people Jeffrey1, etc, by now.
It's pretty appropriate for them to act like people who want to help the community though, and homeless are still part of the community.
Someone needs to chill. I've been working with Python projects for nearly 5 years and you only ever use a subset of the tools. And let's face it, for the most part Python has needed some sort of formality in the project setup, as it's a free-for-all for how you can set up a project.

The other point is - the need section for a project? Just seems unnecessarily snarky. Case in point:

> bumpversion, because I am too lazy to put a single file with a version number, and sphinx is too hard to setup to fetch this version number.

Maybe the team kept forgetting to bump the version number and this removed some
mental overhead?

No-one is stopping you getting out there and just coding. There's always an ecosystem surrounding a language, maybe just embrace just how huge and ubiquitous using Python has become, and get out there and write some code.
If both VirtualBox and VMware give up on Hyper-V coexistence, it must be a bit worse than "unintuitive".
For those of you who will be running Docker Desktop on WSL2 - which allows to "transparently" use the "docker" command on your other Linux that runs in WSL2. And allows to use your WSL2 "other Linux" filesystem to share volumes with Docker containers! ..

Anyway, you need to know that when this stupid Docker and/or WSL2 VM is taking up all your Windows 10 memory - not all is lost.

Using these two commands, you can force WSL2 to give back the memory it is holding prisoner!

echo 1 | sudo tee /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
echo 1 | sudo tee /proc/sys/vm/compact_memory

Especially if the one doing the mess is the "VM" of Docker.

Now that Docker Desktop is using WSL2 instead of its own VM, you can't see the bastard in Hyper-V console at all... apparently the whole WSL2 VM is not seen in Hyper-V console, even though it IS a damn VM. But it does appear in Task Manager as "Vmmem" and taking up gigabytes of your memory.
The focus of the piece was, to quote the headline, "Trump’s Aggressive Advocacy of Malaria Drug". The article leads into the claim by talking about how that advocacy "has raised questions about his motives". Literally the only reason to mention Trump's "small personal financial interest in Sanofi" in this context is to suggest that interest is, in fact, his motive. Everything leading up to that paragraph is background recapping of stuff people already know; the article is structured with this as the key point. Crucially, the New York Times piece also omitted to mention the one piece of information that made this conspiracy theory utterly ridiculous and that Snopes used to debunk it: just how tiny that financial interest really was.

Now, a few of the more cynical and distrusting people did realise that probably meant his interest was so small that the narrative the Times would pushing would fall apart if they mentioned actual numbers, and they were right - but all the people who trusted the most respected and prominent paper on the planet not to mislead them into a nonsensical conspiracy theory took that narrative as it was intended to be taken and spread it all over social media.
I found a way to run Windows from scratch and have Hyper-V enabled. Just install rEFInd boot manager and use 'enable_and_lock_vmx true' in the config.
It's not literally about property values.

It's about class, and to a lesser degree race. If there was good public transit, then 'inner city' people who can't afford owning a car could come and go freely. The suburban middle class don't want anything to do with 'those people'.
Police do not care about the health or safety of people.

It seems like they had an issue, they came up against a fairly standard response from an open source community, and then had several public hissy fits about it.

> Personally, I much prefer black's indentation scheme. I also like spending as little time as possible agonizing over minutia like this.

The strain of bothering over this stuff just isn't worth my time either - I have actual work to do, and the tools tend to just do what I need them to. If they don't, I move on.
"with a very late full lockdown in place". It actually proves that locking down early works and things get out of control extremely fast
Yep, using VirtualBox and it works fine for me. I don't use Hyper-V because it's buggy with my build for some reason (Nvidia driver crashes, BSODs). I don't really get this WSL 2 hype.
Their bosses (the voters) raise hell at the politicians to push the homeless out of sight. If police don’t do that, the local politicians will have to replace the police, or else the voters will replace the politician.

Yes, Reagent and Rum are both wrappers around React.

I think React hooks arrived much later and from what I've read about them, they solve a problem that does not exist in Clojure/ClojureScript.

`rum/react` lets your components auto-update when an atom changes.
Sure. But it's not helpful to say that.

If someone says the police are especially bad towards the homeless, saying that they're bad to everyone just belittles and says that the concerns of the homeless aren't important.

I did read the second paragraph, which makes the first paragraph all the more confusing. First you utterly dismiss the argument on an unreasonable basis, and then in the second paragraph you acknowledge that it's useful to be able to do that.

> Just to be sure, I just tested on my notebook screen (13"): 2x80 doesn't fit with a comfortable font size for me, so maybe we should start using 70 chars?

Sure, YMMV. Even when that turns out to be too small for you, less text per line in the editor leaves more horizontal space for something else, for example a file browser sidebar or a terminal. I've done 2x80 on netbooks for what its worth, but the font size that required probably wouldn't be comfortable to me today.

Stockholm (the worst hit part of Sweden) has about half the deaths per capita of the state New York (26 deaths per 100k vs 56 deaths per 100k) despite Sweden having laxer restrictions. And Stockholm is generally more densely populated.

So while I too am a bit skeptical of the Swedish policies it is doing pretty average on a global scale. Worse than some countries with harsh lockdown but also better than some countries with harsh lockdowns. It is too early to say for sure if the Swedish policy was stupid or not.

In Swedish news the currently most popular theory for why we have more deaths per capita than our Scandinavian neighbors is not necessarily our lax lockdown (though it may have made things worse) but lack of supplies and poor routines in old people's homes. This is of course speculation.
Not necessarily (answering as an Electrical Engineer with zero submarine knowledge), batteries in series give more voltage while batteries in parallel allow more current drawn. Now it depends on what and how your propulsion is.
I'd say it's too early to tell. The consequences can lag for up to three weeks, no?
Recently I had to think about Alexander when I saw the empty streets of New York. Without people you will notice much more how the buildings overwhelm and cast shadow everywhere.

This is exactly what Alexander was fighting against: building structures that go against human nature.

I read a couple of his books and saw some of his talks. It sometimes makes me a little sad to see through his eyes how we are building today.
Ask HN: How you measure time to ramp-up for new engineers as a manager?
How would we measure time to ramp-up for new engineers (i.e. time it takes before engineer is considered to be productive and on boarded)
Think it would be using brokering, the instance of Keycloak would be an external identity provider. Each customer would have their own instance of Keycloak that could then be configured to broker their choice of identity provider. I think this might be achievable at the realm level in a smaller scale deployment, i.e., using a separate realm for each customer but still chaining them back to the central realm through brokering, rather than spawning off new instances of Keycloak. Just a thought..
I can't even tell if this is sarcastic or not
I am not competent in this area, hope someone here on HN can discuss this and provide some feedback on this claim.
So the more likely reason is just uncertain and unpredictable return on ad spend, but that kinda rolls up into it.
Kind of like the Y2K bug? We spent billions on that and then nothing happened... what a waste of money, right?

Do those aboriginal people have an army that can reconquer the land? If not, then the shaky grounds aren't that shaky. We still live in an environment where the rule "might makes right" still applies. Don't forget that.

Does SMR impose a penalty on reading?

My understanding is that it removes the ability to do random writes, since you'll disturb the nearby tracks. Like drawing pen thickness rings with a sharpie by overlapping them.

Instead you read data in, modify it, then write it out, like an extreme version of updating a byte in a cache line.

Your ability to read is more precise, so you have no trouble reading data laid out in this way.

Large contiguous writes are also pretty quick. I've owned one, and if you stick to large files it's fine. Pathological workloads like creating millions of small files can take days.
There actually was a point. His point is that, while it might seem counterintuitive, allowing suppliers to price with demand may improve the situation for the majority of people, even if that permits a minority of individuals to fall by the wayside. He’s making a plea to look at this from a systemic angle. You totally missed that because you jumped to demonizing him for even suggesting the idea.

If you’re hearing “fuck everyone else” that’s pure projection. You’re obviously putting words into his mouth. That seems cruel to me and counterproductive.

You should be more empathetic when you discuss with people on the internet, assume good faith.
If you're renting, ask your landlord.

> neither I nor any of my friends would ever trash a short-term rental, whether it was an apartment, hotel room or a car.

It's not just "trashing". It's in general being harder on things.

I'll give another example, this from the military, as told to me by my father, career Air Force. The military issued combat boots to soldiers, and when they'd wear out, the soldier would present the worn out boot at the supply office, and get a new pair.

They had a rate of boot exchanges that seemed high. As an experiment, the military instead provided the soldiers with a uniform allowance. What they didn't spend they could keep. The boot consumption dropped by a factor of three.

This was not soldiers "trashing" the boots. It was simply not caring about them.

I agree that Unity is bloated and should take way less constant storage, but that's an invalid comparison. They are not the same domains, they don't use the same APIs, the don't on the same environment, they don't talk to the same hardware, they don't have the same functionality, etc.
It is trying to get something into a snappy form that is clear enough to as many people as possible. I like 'data - mapper' but it still needs explanation, so probably better to leave that stuff to the tutorials and try to highlight something else in a comparison table!
It's also an open question for me. I'm wondering though if, even with the limited data we have now, there are examples of countries that took a similar approach and had their two-weeks-later 'explosion' (or possibly three, is what I've heard).

Ask HN: How Do Puts Work?
I'm reading about Mark Spitznagel and Universa Investments, and in an article they put it as follows: 'his trades, which cost almost nothing to put on during good times, can be sold at almost infinite prices.' Why?

If the price of stock A is now $20, and the put gives you the right to sell at $30, wouldn't the put be worth $10? Or was at nearly infinite prices just an exaggeration? But even then I'm having a hard time understanding the massive returns they've claimed, unless there's lots of leverage involved.
From other comments it looks like the author can be quite vitriolic, so it is possible that a lot of the criticism he receives here is fair in tone. But to me this looks a bit premature, the article sounded like a declaration of intent (especially regarding refactoring the code per se).

In particular I understand that there are wrong ways to complain (and possibly the author is guilty of them), but this specific blog felt over the top and emotional (something I sympathize after unrelated experiences in failing to understand how to organize an Poly/ML project) but not unfair.
Sorry, I meant "leaking employee of GitHub", not "leaking employee of your organization".
A great step. but I feel I have to repeat my "ceterum censeo" of saying that wsl would really benefit, if Microsoft would add a native Wayland support so that the Windows Deskop would appear as a Wayland server for the Linux VM. This would allow any Wayland-compatible Linux application to run seamlessly on the Windows desktop and fully utilizing the native graphics drivers.
Which comments were "rescued" but initially unfairly dead?
I'm not sure how this is rent control for real estate. The policy only applies to land that the government owns.
But there is also "Beglium - 359 deaths / million" which had early lockdowns. They started their lockdown one day before Denmark. By cherry picking countries one can chose a story to tell. I think it is too early to say if Sweden's strategy was stupid or not.
When you store unguided torpedo inside capsule in the bottom of the ocean, or allow it to float in some predetermined depth, you have Torpedo mine, like CAPTOR.

The Toshiba and Seagate NAS lines seem well organized and better alternatives these days. And I guess this is all the more reason to get one drive per manufacturer for the typical ~4 drives in a home NAS. Between Seagate/Toshiba/WD/HGST there should be enough variation to still protect against this stuff.
> That's the equivalent of 160 3.0 PCIe lanes

PCIe lanes don't work like that, lanes are the unit of allocation, a lane is a lane regardless of the speed it runs at.

But yes, you can put more bandwidth down a 4.0 lane... if your device supports it. Most of the devices you will be putting on a budget home system don't support it.

It would, hypothetically, be more desirable to have 160 PCIe 3.0 lanes than 80 4.0 lanes. Of course there is no system with that many, but I'd take 128 3.0 lanes over 80 4.0 lanes for sure.

I find that even in the workplace, amongst people who are not billionaires, there is a clear tendency for people to be utterly disinterested in technical work. Everyone has a reason for the things they do, and I don't think the answer is often: "Gosh, this is so interesting."

To me, this translates into: "I want to invest in the amazing next big thing, but actually I am not interested in how to get to the amazing next big thing." So the billionaires are just the same as the ones who are not billionaires.

> 2) There is no reliable way to determine the encoding of a string, just by looking at its bytes. And Unix doesn't provide any other metadata. 3) Therefore, useful Unix programs must assume that any path that could be UTF-8, is UTF-8, for the purpose of displaying it to the user.

No, there is locale settings (in envvars) and software should assume path encoding based on locale encoding.

It is true that today locale setting is usualy utf-8 based, but if i use non-utf-8 based locale then tools should not assume paths are in utf-8 and recode in.
