Yes. A model takes input, runs a process, and provides output. It's a model because it is simpler than the real process, but provides reasonable approximations. Newtonian Physics is a model of physical interaction from gravity and mass.

A mental model is an internal construct the mind uses to represent parts of the world. You have a mental model of your body. You have a mental model of how physics works. You have a mental model of how your friends would react to certain situations. etc. A model says "If the world is in this state, then the next state is this one."

Wisdom, or aphorisms, are things that are taught to people which are shorthand for solutions to complicated situations. They are algorithms. They say "These are the answers to problems that you might encounter". Sometimes, they provide guidance. They are heuristics. This article should be "Polya-like heuristics for designers"

You would teach someone a mental model like this: "Think of a person as a robot programmed to reproduce and eat". This allows you to draw conclusions by querying your model of a robot and applying that to the person. You could predict how the person would make decisions. It might be wise to do that or not.

You would teach someone wisdom or an aphorism like this: "If you encounter a hard problem, break it down into sub problems". True, there is potentially a model there: All problems are just collections of subproblems, but that's something you have to build up by following the guidance. It doesn't actually give you a model, it prods you to build one ... if necessary.

The article does not provide any models, it only suggests steps to break down problems or communicate solutions. You, the reader, are using your internal mental models of the world to see if the stuff you are being suggested actually makes sense. If you start crafting new models, it is not because this article contains any of them.
A long haul jet is at takeoff roughly evenly split by weight between fuel, passengers, and plane. Yes, it becomes lighter, but the more importantly it scavenges it’s entire takeoff weight in oxygen which conventional lithium ion batteries can’t do. Lithium batteries have improved, but you have to carry both sides of the redox.

The only way I can think to get similar physics is to use lithium air batteries and then dump them with a parachute when discharged.
They probably cut it down from the original “Play Home Hub All Access by Nest by Google”.
> Code isn't laid out that way, with code, each statement starts on a new line which naturally limits line width.

No, it doesn't, especially for code that isn't written in a very basic simplistic imperative style. Expressions have no natural size limits (and statements, in languages that even have them, can generally each contain one or more expressions.)

Languages tend to develop conventional line width limits and conventions for where to prefer to break within expressions to achieve them, but there is no natural length limit to the length of a single statement.
Datadog has shit the bed for us multiple times in the last six months. Unannounced breaking API changes, unaddressed bugs, and now their embedded cert expired.

Our org is currently divided over further commitment to the service, or leaving them entirely. They've made it very hard to argue in their favor.

Nitpicky, but calling something R^3 outside of an academic context when '3D' suffices leaves me feeling oversold and underdelivered. This is 3-dimensional, and no further info is added with R^3 while only making it slightly less approachable.

R^3 contains R^2 and R, but I can't change the view to just 2D or 1D, so why call it R^3?

Hi everyone!

Here is an article I've just published about making a brand new game for the Super Nintendo (SNES) console using today's technology. It starts with the various steps to designing and program the game, and then details how me manufacture new cartridges (with box and manual) for a console whose commercial support ceased more than 20 years ago!

I hope you'll enjoy it, and don't hesitate to ask me if you have any question!
That's what my browser shows me too, but it's just because it's ignoring the cross-signed one that chains to AAA. The server is sending it, per InCommon's setup instructions.

3 year old hardware is still very new by Linux standards. Especially wrt. hardware classes for which a unified support framework has yet to be provided, including RGB LED's and fingerprint scanners. The sleep performance thing is an interesting example, since the whole issue was caused by hardware OEM's deprecating the old ACPI "sleep" state and deciding that OS's should manage standby states entirely on their own - this too will require a lot of really hard work to be supported properly across zillions of devices.
I agree that this is a large part of it. I did Alexander Technique for about five years, and that helped me unpick a lot of bad habits. It helped my singing, teaching me to stop getting in the way of my voice. It also helped me with broader problems like my posture when I'm using a computer.

Yes, but I strongly suspect that the mascot is secondary to the name. They probably started with k8s, saw an opportunity to pun, added 1 to get k9, and that informed the logo.
While I don't disagree with you, I think at some level we need to remove the "lens" with which we are appreciating poetry or any other art-form and to appreciate it for the art itself. In that regards his privileged upbringing or whiteness shouldn't take away from the merits of his actual poetry.

Wonderful project anyways.
I went from kinda following the 80 character “rule” to 120, to not following it at all and now back to 80. Why? Because I like to have three editor windows side by side and at the font size I’m using, going above 80 means I have to scroll and word-wrap looks unpleasant to me.

Keeping lines short also helps when pasting code to instant messengers or reading side-by-side git diffs.

There is a problem with the BMI [1] calculation, which is the standard measure used to determine "normal" weight, in that it is dimensionally incorrect. The BMI calculation gives results that are appropriate for those around 5'6" (168cm) in height. The units are in kg/m^2.

The Ponderal Index [2] (AKA the "Corpulence Index") gives values that work for any height, with units in kg/m^3. If you are a young child or over 6 feet tall, you might find the PI/CI works better for you.

so, basically you submit free labor for the use by for-profit corporations, but you dont get those same freedoms to do so on your own devices, got it

personally, i wouldnt mind so much if users of submitted code were payed "dividends" for ones labor when used in propriatary for-profit services/products, but seing as that is not the case, well, i cannot abide...
There is certainly a point for most people to use a plug-in hybrid if the price is not too high. Most trips are short. You only take long trips a few times a year. (or maybe a few times a month if you drive a lot, but that still equals most trips being short). Thus you have "infinite range" via the petrol engine and the vast majority of trips are all electric. This makes total sense.

Applying the same logic to 1A, we could say that the freedom of the press is not infringed - you can have as many as you want! - but it doesn't say anything about ink. Or laser and offset printers, for that matter.

In practice, the courts take dim view on such arguments, and if some element is required to practically exercise a right, it is usually protected under that right.
Topological Censorship
So would it be okay if your bank forced you to install a kernel driver so it can intercept and log every network connection? Would it be okay for mobile banking apps to request every permission available and refuse to let you do anything unless you grant them? All this for "fraud prevention purposes"? Because that's what banks are like in my country.

There is no guarantee they will limit themselves to fraud prevention anyway. Any information collected is highly likely to also end up in the hands of marketing, governments and god knows who else. Without this guarantee, any and all "fraud prevention attempts" should absolutely be considered malicious.
I disagree.

Looking at their tables, seems so. The code is open source, and there's demo at https://mosaickg.apps.allenai.org/
Several reason:

- Civilians today do not have the means to stand up to a modern state. For a minor example see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waco_siege, note the outcome was never in any doubt just how much casualties the feds wanted to inflict

- Weapons today have much larger damage potential

- We live in a world that violence and weapons are not part of the way it used to be, for the better. I don't think we are ready to go back to having to defend ourselves

- A strong and well armed democracy was hoped to be a better solution to this
In haskell it's best to stick to libraries with more users than those that try to experiment with a fancy api.

So for example, just use http-client instead of req. Use postgres-simple or persistent instead of beam, etc...
SQL does not have type inference. It's dynamically typed, and will break at runtime if you feed the wrong type into something. It probably is strongly typed, depending where you draw that line.

It also sometimes has side effects, although that's more dialect specific than present in the standard I think (when it comes to DML).

Interested what exactly isn't functional about the suits? Most of this post seems to be entirely about looks and outward appearances alone.
The original sold-as product name was Google Home Hub, the announced rename was the shorter Nest Hub, though it seems to be fully Google Nest Hub (that's the title of the Google Store product page, though the page itself only ever used Nest Hub.)

I can't find anything from Google using both the “Nest” and “Home” bits as part of the same product name, though some third party sites seem to have mixed the old and new names that way.

After reading that, I'm really thankful that git-by-email is dying. Hard wrapping is just really terrible for anyone not using a VT-100.
HN has already said they will do nothing about it, it’s been this way for years. Therefore the only person people can direct their rage to is the poster.

If you want to make a list, there’s nothing wrong with using new lines, they will work just fine.

A code block however stimulates rage.
Seems the only way to trust the companies in such situations is to exploit the vulnerabilities from multiple, unconnectable devices and locations, over as long a period as possible. If the company cannot list all of the attacks, you know they're bullshitting.
> afraid of exposing

They are afraid of losing their audience and/or advertisers. Not that hard to figure out.

Same reason why I tune out Facebook posts like this -- I have a visceral reaction to pictures of destroyed animals when I see pictures/videos. I would argue it's the news consumers that have a problem with it, not investigative journalists.

Also, there are laws in many of the states which specialize in factory livestock that criminalize gathering evidence, so it's difficult to report.
I think it was foreseeable even in dark days of the year 2000 that this certificate expired after business hours globally.

But your statement is really pointing out that nobody should be making long-lived certificates.
> and should not be used for intimidation in protests

“Brandishing” a weapon is already a crime.

I think showing up armed to a protest against the government is sometimes important - reminding the government that the populace as a whole has the means to fight oppression is an act of political speech.

Using guns to imply a desire for violence against a group other the government seems wrong to me and I would be against it if I thought there was a way to legitimately differentiate between the two.
Shipping Greatness by Chris Vander Mey is a brilliant book that relates his experience at Google and Amazon and the culture of quality necessary to ship reliable products that will be used by millions. Well written and a great read.
Yeah they stopped doing that a while ago and today when watching the launch with friends I was surprised they didn't know it was a thing. When Mark Shuttleworth went there it was all over the tech news.
99.9 percent of folks should just be sticking to http-client instead of using dodgy libraries with fancy api that are not well maintained.
Ullman, 'Elements of ML Programming'. It's where I learned functional programming back in the 1990's, and I still think it's one of the clearest expositions around. Yes, it's the same Ullman who wrote the dragon book.
It's exploitable through apple's web-based login flow used by web sites and Android devices. There are multiple round trips between the user and apple, and state is passed over the wire. The state could be modified at a certain point in the flow to cause the final result (the JWT) to be compromised. The flow is still the same, they seem to have fixed it entirely by adding checks server-side.
(sorry, WAS exploitable)
I try to keep my Clojure code under 80 characters (so that I can have three editors comfortably side by side at my preferred font size) and keeping lines short is more than just where to wrap or other visual-only things. Usually when I have a long line, it makes me reconsider the structure of the code and I refactor it into something else. Most of the time, the new structure not only has shorter lines, but is simpler too, so its a double win. This isn’t always a task that the tools could do for mem, though, as it sometimes rewuires rethinking what I’m trying to accomplish.

I was a commercial artist for 10 years. The same is true of art. In the visual art world everything boils down to contrast. It may be colour, composition, sequences of shots, silhouettes, animation, or otherwise - but at the end of the day everything boils down to contrast. There is nothing mystical or romantic about art. At the end of the day, it is just a set of rules of manipulation/communication. I would say the same about programming. I find programming more interesting and engaging, but that's just me.
If you indent with tabs, you can still align with spaces for vertical alignment.
There's no consensus that what's actually worshipped is the same God. But as far as meaning of words go, Allah literally means The God, and Arab Christians use it to refer to the Christian god. There's also no ambiguity that Yahweh specifically is "the god" for both Christians and Muslims.
Given that the useful load of a 208 is around 1500kg, 150kg/hour is by no means 'microscopic'. Yes, obviously compared to a 787 which burns 5000kg/hour it's a different story. But the useful load of a 787 is also much, much higher.

I get the Apollo esthetic (I watched the Skylab missions as a kid on our black & white console TV). But two of the major differences between then and now is cheap computing and additive machining. Cheap computing means you don't need a zillion physical switches for everything. So the cabin is less cluttered and the usability is better.[0]

The advent of additive machining means everything doesn't have to be right angles and hard corners.[1] As a result the cabin will be safer because your astronauts are less likely to be hurt if there is an unanticipated thrust. Parts can also be made to fit better and to closer tolerances.

With regard to the suits - they look far better than the orange shuttle flight suits. I think that having the umbilical on the thigh was a good innovation. No idea how comfortable they are, but they're only going to be worn for launch & entry. I expect Doug & Bob have already put their shorts & t-shirts on.

For research? If you are thinking for example about microfabbing in space designing an autonomous experiment would be very hard. A lot of cool things could be done with for example adaptive optics if we could manufacture optical elements in space. The technology to align them in orbit is already there. And since it's so expensive to go now a lot of cool ideas like that can't be tried out.

CA, NY and NJ were the states that forced their nursing homes to take C19 patients.

CA got off easy, relatively speaking. Probably fewer nursing homes. It's amazing how idiotic government officials can be.
Yup, I also strongly disagree with the OP article. The most frustrating codebases I've dealt with are those with layers and layers of overly clever abstractions, and over-engineered generalizations which will never be used before the code is refactored and rewritten. They are hard to understand, not well documented, difficult to test, and frustrating to debug. They often have tons of buggy edge-cases due to the combinatorial explosion of inputs, assumptions, and code paths. The older I get, the stronger I believe that simple is beautiful, and definitely not boring. Simple is often harder than complex.

This sounds like inflation. Didn't the economics say there wouldn't be any/much as a result of printing so much money?
Adding some women into the mix seems like a whole different kettle of fish than saying that for moral reasons people are going to have to stop enjoying white male authors!

(Also, I don't think the prevailing western attitude was that it was immoral to enjoy women authors. They certainly existed and were popular! Shelley, Bronte Sisteres, George Eliot, Jane Austen, probably lots more... I think the situation was more like sexism was a thing and not contraindicated by prevailing morality. To respond to that historical fact by postulating that it's now morally required to not enjoy white + male writers, as some sort of psychic vengeance of evening of the scales, continues to seem strange to me.)

(Of course, on an individual level, read whatever you want.)
But they're not a state. And because they're not a state, they have no congress representation, and because they have no congress representation and they are not a state, they do not have electors in the electoral college.

So, yes... they are citizens, but they're in complete neglect and have no real representation.

If they want to vote, they have to move to a US state.
Show HN: Solo mode for Google Docs – extension to hide comments and cursors
I feel like this is one of those things like the Git CLI, where, yeah it's gross, but you're better off learning it without a porcelain at first because it's sufficiently complex that doing it the other way around will leave you initially bewildered when you need to venture beyond what the porcelain can help you with.
