> have any insight to what you can actually deliver

Maybe that's the problem. In lots of AI/ML problems you just CAN'T know ahead of time what can be deliver you need to spend the time and resources to do it and then see how well it works...

The problem imo is on the business side, most businesses don't know how to transform unpredictable progress into profit (even if average on a large timeframe that progress might be HUGE).

So ML/DS people need to overpromise in order to get anything approved, otherwise they'd just have to sit around and do nothing, and overall everyone would be worse too, bc that real but unreliable progress would never happen.
How much functionality does a demo like this get for free in addition to its own 4KB of code? For example, do modern GPUs have rich functions like createAmazingFractalGeometry() which these demos then piece together?
The recommendation algorithms seem to be just the most simplistic type of pigeon holing. Think Netflix, just because I watched a European political thriller last week, it is assumed I now want to watch this genre for eternity.
The problem is that there's no obvious, simple way to bring the results of this query, structured and typed appropriately (with posts nested inside users), into our running code.

So we have to choose what we think is the least-worst compromise.

Since I wrote the library I am obviously anything but impartial, but the compromise I outlined above is one I'm pretty happy with (and it's much easier to read if you add a few line breaks). It's a bit noisier than your JOIN query, but for the price of that noise you get type safety and an appropriate JSON structure for the result.
Scans to see how he is dealing with native comments... Realises the issue remains unsolved, along with 99% of ’CMS’ solutions...

I see someone complain about downvotes, I downvote!

Then I often check if I maybe wasn't too hasty, and so far it's always been warranted. For some reason people complaining about downvotes correlates strongly with shitty comments and a history of shitty comments.

EDIT: and you're one of the shitty commenters, it seems. congrats!
In that case would it not free up time to identify the standard ones and do them automatically but kick the deviates ones out?

Then that data should possibly go to an executive's inbox to remind them of the need to standardize and reform.

Although most business people are not willing or capable of solving actual problems like standardizing things.

But anyway great comment that gets at the heart of the matter.

I understand that many people feel masks are dehumanizing, and I respectfully suggest that they need to get over it. In cultures where mask use is common (which now includes many areas of the US, so your sociological explanations don't make a ton of sense), masks don't feel dehumanizing; they feel like dress shoes or a tie, a bit uncomfortable but entirely normal and required in certain situations. I've never felt pressured to treat my fellow citizen as a bag of virus, nor have I been treated like one myself.
Which is of course why choosing a strategy is and will always be an informed guess. We won't know which strategy works best, which assumptions turned out to be true of flawed, until after the show.

Sweden provides us with an upper bound. I think they're showing it's perhaps not as bad as we once thought it might be. Which is why many countries are now relaxing or looking to relax rules to regimes more similar to Sweden.

Why is this blog post so negative?
Microsoft are trying and giving all of the developers the tools to help affect the project along the way.

The Terminal project was only announced 1 year ago[0]. As I understand it, they had to more or less split how the whole conhost.exe work in order to allow Terminal to even exist. The settings UI is far from sexy, but they're working on it[1].
I think it's impressive to know that 6 people did that in a year[2].

Regarding the slow startup of WSL2, yes it is slow to start, but would you rather have to wait 5x for a git clone command[3]?
They even have a deep dive into how files are save in WSL1 which can be related to how it works in WSL2[4]

I completely disagree with the conclusion of performance is not Microsoft's concern. The comparison is to GNOME3 which was released in 2011. 9 years of development compared to 1 year. "The polish just isn't there"

Do you have sources or articles? I’ve read quite a few and I’m unconvinced to say the least.

The study showing it doesn’t stick long to to surfaces lends some support to touching your face but I’d rather be safe than gamble on those probabilities and a longer term accumulation.

The worst and most common argument I’ve heard is that “it only prevents you from infecting other people, not them from infecting you”, as if that isn’t a major piece of the puzzle.

I know most infections happen with extended close contact and masks are pretty useless outdoors - which is why I only wear it in close quarters indoors. But I can’t imagine it doesn’t help at some level with the way it limits the velocity of your exhales and protects touching, even if it’s 10-30% safer than it’s worth it IMO.

I take elevators and live in a building with thousands of other people sharing the same public spaces. There seems plenty of opportunity.
An arms race like that favours the trolls though.

I do believe the answer to an overly snoopy surveillance state is to drown it in data.
Closing schools is an over reaction though. Denmark has significantly lower life expectancy than Sweden and will have it this year as well. Why? Largely alcohol and tobacco. Sure, Denmark having less alcohol and tobacco measures than Sweden is great for your economy, but limiting them like Sweden does would save way more lives and have way smaller effects on peoples lives than your current Corona measures.

All of these articles pointing at Sweden as if it was a failure really has didn't consider how minor effect it had in Sweden, I'd say that the other Scandinavian countries over reacted instead. Maybe not Norway since they seem to value life higher, but both Finland and Denmark will still have lower life expectancy than Sweden and if they cared about life they would put resources on other measures than Corona.
Would be really awesome if each row also included the open source equivalents.
It would be very hard to do something like that to startups that aren't 'structured', unlike code.

But there would definitely be a lot of value in having a wiki if dead startups with detailed analyses of what worked and what didn't.
You are right about rate limited internet. Something else to consider is renting some rack space is super cheap and can come with free internet and electricity. Last time I checked a few years ago in DFW it was $60 a month with 1Gb/s and some IP addresses for 1RU.

Many small and medium businesses have a "business" ISP circuit. This typically doesn't have caps and has the option of a dedicated IP. Speaking from experience I was an ISP network engineer for a big telco years ago.
It depends on the location this takes place, the contract (user agreement), and the laws.

If the user agreement says they can take your picture, then there is likely nothing you can do, except maybe expose them through the media or maybe the EFF.

If the contract does not say anything about them being allowed to record you, then you could take the information to the police or an attorney depending on the laws and location.
In Victoria, Australia the government announced a mandate for capturing contact details for all customers entering a variety of businesses reopening on June 1.

There weren’t any solutions that made the user experience for everyone involved simple and a “just works” type experience so I spent a couple of weeks pulling this solution together.

I’d be keen to get feedback and ideas from the HN community about it, particularly for its applicability in other countries as I’ve not heard much about similar rules elsewhere except in New Zealand.
Sublime Merge seems to want to run as a git client, fully controling the behavior.

I wanted to use it as a difftool as I already am fine with the git cli. I don't think it can do it? Maybe I could not find the documentation.

The thing is, I used https://www.kaleidoscopeapp.com/ on mac, which is just pure joy. Recently I'm trying to migrate into Windows with WSL and a decent graphical diff / merge tool is my pain point.

Any suggestions (or a way to use SM via CLI)?
> if we stuck to the comforts of the known, applicable facts, we'd be called engineers.

seriously? you are showing off your knowledge of science by displaying an ignorance of engineering... engineers don't live in emotional comfort, and the best experimental scientists are engineers or they'd never create novel equipment to test ideas.
40 volt electric chainsaws are fine for anything under 6 inches in diameter. That covers almost all household use cases as well as many trail thinning situations.
After I read the article, I thought the article had less to do with the math involved than the way kids see things compared to adults. So I thought it was pretty interesting.
How could we do a test to determine which is the true cause?
YouTube is deleting comments with 2 phrases that insult China’s Communist Party
...if the test happens deep enough to contain the explosion. But even an initially contained explosion may produce a crater later when the pressure in the created cavity drops and the cavity collapses.
That fact is due to exactly what I stated before: for decades, China had no capital and no consumer class, so all it could do was serve as a manufacturing platform for foreign companies.

I find it pretty difficult to blame China for this "asymmetry in trade," when that asymmetry was exactly what foreign governments wanted. They wanted China to open up its labor market, so that foreign companies could exploit cheap labor in China. The consumer market in China was tiny, whereas the American and European consumer markets were huge, so the relationship could not be symmetric.

Now, China's consumer market is actually quite large, and foreign companies play a huge role in that market. I didn't just mention Starbucks. I also mentioned VW, but I could equally have mentioned Boeing, Apple, Intel, Qualcomm or Micron. You'll notice a trend here: the US exports high-value-added products to China (including IP licenses and services). Most of what you have in your living room that's actually manufactured in China is lower on the value chain.

Over time, in other words, the US trade relationship with China is becoming more symmetric. Huawei's development into high-value-added products is a sign of that. It's actually this symmetry that the United States wants to avoid, because it means China becoming a peer-level competitor.

The US trade relationship with China will never become fully symmetric, though, because the US runs a net trade deficit with the rest of the world, for reasons that appear to me to have to do with the United States' unique financial position in the world.
Oh, so it was developed by SGI? ;-)
Still no one can answer the question of where do you charge one if you rent an apartment with no parking or a terraced house with no driveway. Don't get me wrong, I'm planning to go 100% electric in the next few years, but then we're lucky enough to have a house with a double driveway - I have no idea how it can possibly work for people without dedicated parking.
It is not weird at all once you realise who Microsoft's management wants as its customers. The business people at MS really do not expect nor want customers to be fiddling around with technical stuff. They want customers to see MS as the one who can solve all problems. The business people at Microsoft prefer non-technical customers. Technically-minded customers are not the ideal customers for Microsoft. A great example is Mark Russinovich. They had to hire him to keep him quiet and under control. He had become a problem solver for too many technically-minded customers.

We've been through this before.
A few weeks ago I had a bunch of data I needed to be able to play around with. I’m not great at Excel but I spun up a quick app in Rails and fed the data into a local Postgres db and played around with it there very easily. Didn’t need auth or CSS or JS or anything but just out of the box Rails. The scaffold pages were more than enough for the data I was playing with. All in all it took maybe 15 minutes to get everything set up and configured.

I sometimes use Flask for the same thing but I end up having to write my own HTML and CSS and routes and... Rails just takes care of all of that. I find it faster by a huge margin.
Can you provide more details? What is a metadata driven UI?
Although the Wikipedia article was thin, the video lacked any context (especially due to the way YouTube hides the description text on many devices).

I probably should have linked to the Reddit post but that had even less content and I didn't have it to hand.
I believe the idea is that a flywheel maintains momentum and makes the rest of the process easier, as opposed to starting cold each time.
Seems like the issue here was a lack of documentation. Almost every npm package worth their salt details the various ways to get started with something along these lines:

- In the Browser:

- Using Parcel/Webpack/Rollup.js...etc

- From a CDN

- In Node:

- Using CommonJS

- `const funcName = require('somePackage')`

- Using Native ES Modules

...etc
Not the previous poster but: I've tried picking up things a cut above random pop books about marketing and haven't found any depth there. If you have any links to somewhere I can actually do a deep dive on marketing, I'd appreciate it.
Basic Features in separate packages means, many users will never use them, because they don't know they exist.

Bulk renaming files for example is not something only power users do, it is something only power users can do because it just does not exist and/or is not discoverable for a normal user.

And also as a power user, it is annoying to find a program for every basic thing the system should be able to do.

On the other hand, maybe we should hand it to MS that they so greatly embrace the Unix Philosophy on that point?
Apparently it includes a partial C++ parser too.
> But the first launch of the Linux subsystem after system reboot is unbelievably slow.

I suspect the favorite activity of the author is therefore to reboot their computer, and to quickly rush to WSL2 after that. In which case I agree the user experience is not ideal.
This is so strange - I am on course to build my own developer blog with a similar stack (minus TypeScript, and syntax highlighting).

I am also using a CMS instead of just plain markdown - in this instance it is NetlifyCMS.

Netlify CMS is the perfect go-between of a fully-fledged CMS, and a much too basic static site with just markdown - I dislike the experience of writing markdown and would rather use an editor.

With NetlifyCMS - the blogging flow is as follows:

- User logs into NetlifyCMS

- User updates content

- Content is 'pushed' to the repo as a commit.

- CI / CD picks up changes on master branch

- CI/ CD publishes changes

- The site is updated!

The example code can be found here: https://www.netlifycms.org/docs/nextjs/

It is extremely simple to get up and running - but also offers great flexibility if, as the author has stated, you wish to use your website to demo components - visualise data, anything custom really!

The only difference with my implementation is instead of using the `public/` folder, I created an 'admin' folder within 'pages', with an index.js file for the HTML contents, as referenced here: https://www.netlifycms.org/docs/nextjs/#adding-netlify-cms. The only reason being, I didn't want to have to specify '/admin/index.html' every time i want to edit the content.

My only gripe with this blog post - is its insuniation that it is 'ideal'. I think its pretty clear from the post, it is only 'ideal' for the author. Unfortunately, the HN community has taken the opportunity to rip apart the authors opinion - which is disappointing. Thanks for the content, Colin!
I am as much for science based thinking as anyone but the facts that there is little proof that they work is silly to point out, when there is very little proof that they don't work. The lift of people wearing masks in public is so small that on even a tiny percentage of "working" it's worth it. People pointing out that there is little actual proof, as if there has or has been the proper amount of time and resources for proper peer-reviewed studies in a variety of environments, are likely actively harming people by encouraging more risky (even if it's a small percentage of chance of it being risky) behavior.
Came here to say Hugo is the correct answer for a Personal Developer blog, unless you're using it to showcase your skills in a particular technology, at least in my experience.

Finally dived into Hugo and it's just so easy to get going with making Markdown content and turning it into a static site with one of the themes from their gallery. There's a bit of a rabbit hole to go down if you want to get more custom than that, but it's extremely customizable and you can learn a lot about how to do so just looking at the source code from themes in the gallery.

The only tech I really have to worry about is HTML, CSS, Markdown, and a little bit of template scripting for ranges and reading variables from the config files, if I want to customize the theme.

I've gotten excited about building my personal website again because I don't have to screw around with the technology hardly at all, I can focus on just making content. Which is what you want for a personal site. You don't want a bunch of friction slowing you down from actually getting content out there.

I don't have to worry about dependency hell with Hugo either, it's just an executable.

We are 30+ years and Windows Task Scheduler is still broken. Compare that to simple .txt files to schedule anything you need in Linux. Windows took the UI path for users and that's OK, but most of Power users are still much better off with text files and simple utilities (like crontab) that work. This type of ecosystem is completely broken on Windows, I don't think it can be fixed, it is too much of a paradigm shift. On the same token trying to do good UI/User experience is still too hard on Linux. I take no issue with Windows, business users, friends and my parents are probably better off with it, but the "power" stuff? Please don't.

Article has very bland design, making it hard to read the embedded code. Comments are light grey on white, not easy to read on some screens.

The Go Tour has no syntax highlighting, but the design on the pages are fit for the purpose of learning the language: https://tour.golang.org/welcome/1

The typical Go-presentations (http://go-talks.appspot.com/github.com/SatishTalim/slides/sa...) tend to be very short and readable, but you'll find www-pages/videos about Go having both syntax highlighting and not, good design and not. Good Go code tend to be short. Many gophers prefer syntax highlighting, so there's no need to force-adopt "opinions" when not strictly necessary or ideal. Alot of Go is very community and stdlib-driven though.
