I am sorry that I read too quickly, and misunderstood your point, which I think I now understand. Although I see now that you specifically quoted your parent's point "if they can't pay the hundred bucks the government won't I sure don't care" before disagreeing with it, I reacted too quickly and thought incorrectly that you were disagreeing with the parent's broader point about why it was good to have Section 8 tenants.

Ask HN: Researching My YouTube Addiction
Hi everyone, ever since YouTube changed their recommendation engine from the subscription feed to a personalized recommendation feed, I find myself spending hours of my day (unwillingly!) on YouTube.

I noticed I really got addicted and I don't like it.

So I downloaded all of my 'watch' data from YouTube and I'm trying to research how they were able to program my mind.

The data I have is a timeline of every video I've watched in the past 2.5 years. It includes the hour of the day I played the video, the duration of the video and other metadata about the video/channel etc.

I wanted to get your recommendation on what interesting correlations I can find in the data?

I thought of simple questions such as: Which channels I watch the most? which tags/topics/key words in title I watch the most? What is the average time I spend a day on YouTube? How much of it is continuous?

ps.
If anyone would like to panther on this research please reach out. My name is Elad and my last name is Gariany. My email is my first@last.com
> software engineering is more than code. Software developers live, breathe, and puke software development.

100% agree. Which is why its important that students are working together on projects so they can write specs, documentation, tests and structure code in a way that the next engineer can take over easily. Our weekly sprint planning helps facilitate that.

Take this PR for example, it has tests and went through 15+ comments and approved by 2 other students before it got merged in: https://github.com/garageScript/c0d3-app/pull/243

I think your are thinking of a curriculum that just teaches students how to code and then have them build side projects by themselves and show it off. And I agree, that is not software engineering, it is just code.
If you really wanted to (and you understand Clojure's destructuring and lambda syntax) you could even do it in two lines:

"nil punning" has been a feature in Lisp since the earliest days, but as far as I know it's only called "nil punning" in the Clojure community.

I don't have anything against Clojure (well, I'm a little negative on the JVM), but I personally don't see any reason to move to it from Common Lisp.

On the other hand, I'd miss CLOS, and I feel like CL has a better/more consistent design. Something about Clojure always feels like they're "winging it".
Feynman's own words -

>I don't think of the problem as between socialism and capitalism but rather between suppression of ideas and free ideas. If it is that free ideas and socialism are better than communism, it will work its way through. And it will be better for everybody. And if capitalism is better than socialism, it will work its way through.

In the rest of the chapter he's pretty critical of Russia in particular, because of the soviet suppression of good science in favor of party-endorsed "facts," but that's more anti-autocratic than anti-communist.

I would also add that type inference is one of the biggest differentiators when it comes to developer experience. When you have to manually type every single thing, even local variables, it's easy for the system to hinder more than it helps. Whereas in TypeScript you're free to omit return types whenever you want them to be driven by the internal code, or specify them when you want to establish a stronger contract. The same goes for local variables. You can even call generic functions without parameterizing the generic type if it can be inferred from the arguments.
> Typically police riot helmets have exactly that (a big number) on the back of them so they can identify each other in the chaos.

That's far from universal. I did some googling:

Helmet number:

* DC Police: https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/after-night-s...

* San Francisco police: https://warriorpublications.wordpress.com/2012/10/07/san-fra...

* Denver Police: https://www.denverpost.com/2016/07/14/poll-riot-gear-for-pol...

No number:

* Boston Police/MA State Police: https://psmag.com/social-justice/policing-a-class-society

* Minnesota State Patrol: https://www.cbc.ca/news/world/minneapolis-riots-ferguson-1.5...

* Chicago Police: https://www.gettyimages.com/detail/news-photo/chicago-police...

One issue I have is that even when there are ID numbers on the uniforms, they're too small. The only ones above that I thought were adequately large were on the San Francisco police uniforms. The number should be large enough to be read off an active/moving officer's uniform from a photograph taken some distance away (like 30-50 feet).

Email not working and the mail getting bounced back.
Yes, thank you for spotting that mistake. In any case, police barley make enough money as is.. they could always just not become police, and then where would we be? I fact, if they were smart they wouldn't become police. It's a terrible job, and is currently being attacked en masse from almost every direction.
Can macOS virtual machines ever be performant enough to use as a workstation? So far I have only tried setting it up in VMWare and VirtualBox, the performance wasn't there but I haven't dedicated a GPU or drive to it yet. It would be so convenient to decouple macOS from Mac hardware.
Except that there's a complex system or corruption that got things into that state. Moving money from the police will probably not be spent on anything beneficial, but instead into what ever political agenda comes up next.
‘Now starting to invest’ is the opposite of an Emory gesture.
Not sure if this was your point, but you just made a case for keeping the funding. Funding went up between 1993 to today, and crime went down by 50k reports per year, even as the population increased. Read another way, funding doubled, while crime reports were cut by more than half, even though the population went up by 15%.

I know this is potentially a case of correlation doesn't equal causation, but if your goal is to argue against police budgets, these aren't the numbers to use.

> The real-dollar cost per crime reported has gone up more than 5x.

Yes, but that's a terrible way to look at something. You're not trying to reduce the cost per crime reported; you're trying to reduce the crime reported itself. That's going to take more money to accomplish, so the cost per crime going up is a good thing. It means you're getting good value for money.

EDIT: Doing some simple math, the cost per crime today is way less than the cost per crime back in 1993, according to your numbers. Drastically less.

(for the record, I don't know enough about this whole situation to have an informed opinion; my gut feeling is reducing the funding of your peacekeeping force by drastic amounts in a short time frame during a time of unrest is perhaps not wise)

That is unlikely. Germany can't get enough from "non-integrating gap countries"-immigrants. They have the reputation of integrating really well into western society.

I disagree with defunding the police because at some point, we run the risk of losing the rank and file cop. What happens if 40% of LAPD calls out sick for a week, and those remaining abstain from crowd control or enforcement.

I guess I’m just saying maybe defunding the police will make them feel attacked unjustly which may spiral to worse depths.

In 6 years that I've been using Cider daily, I don't remember it being broken after update. Ditto for Emacs.

A few times Cider had major changes, but even then it was quickly resolved, and was relevant only to people that were using daily snapshots. I guess if someone is a beginner, they'd use a stable version, and these are rather stable.

Big files could be problematic in Emacs. OTOH, Clojure files are never big.

As for Emacs requiring a bit of learning at first. Well, yes. It has lots of features that beginners have probably never encountered in other tools. These features are awesome. They also help a lot. So, someone expects to unlock a great featureset, but refuses to spend even a few afternoons learning about that featureset. I understand that people would rather get something out of nothing, but it's not Emacs's fault.
Small and light drones are still very noisy. It is not as bad when it's in a steady state, but any maneuvering increases noise by a lot. We have replaced moving parts (as in helicopter swashplates) with fixed, but quick to react motors, spinning at a very high speed. Those generate lots of turbulence whenever they need to shift speeds for maneuvers.

There's someone in this thread saying that their F150 is less noisy than a drone. That is unlikely to be true, but the emitted frequencies are very different. A high pitch whine is, for whatever reason, very noticeable, compared to a lower pitch of similar amplitude. Think dentist drills.
Agenda seems really good, but also seems to be macOS/iOS only, which is unfortuante for me.
tl;dr on the above: The Expression Problem was originally expressly formulated with maintaining a Haskellian level of static type checking as one of its core requirements.

Saying you've solved it, when your solution involves on dynamic typing, or even casts in an otherwise static language, is arguably akin to kicking the ball across the center field line and then claiming you've scored a goal.

(See: http://homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/wadler/papers/expression/expre...)
If the client manages to get a successful response then it is cached normally - whatever the TTL value attached to the record defines. In case of PendingDNS all TTL values are 5min by default. So the problem is with unsuccessful responses - there is no TTL attached, so the client uses whatever it finds suitable - maybe uses values from SOA records, maybe has its own default, who knows - in any case, it is quite long.
I think this is becoming less and less true. "Sanctuary cities" are basically just cities that don't ever detain people the additional 24 hours for INS/ICE; so that minorities are more forward with calling and talking with police.

You go to both minority and non-minority neighbourhoods all over Chicago and there are signs say "We call the police." I'm pretty shocked at the anti-police rhetoric here in Chicago personally, considering all the PR efforts they put in and how involved a lot of police are in the community.

>People who exclusively watch Fox News have been shown to be less informed about politics than people who watch no news.

There is a few issues.

1. That study was from 2012. Things have quite possibly changed since then.

2. The study did not take a look at age. The average Fox News viewer is older than most news shows. Older people have worse memory. A study should look at the various age groups to make sure that it is not just old people not knowing stuff. I am guessing young people who watch Fox are more informed than old people who watch Fox.

3. What is the correlation between Fox News viewers and voters? Its possible that most Fox News people don't actually vote and as such bringing up Fox news is irrelevant to the conversation.

4. What is the correlation between poor people and Fox New views? Since we are talking about poor people it seems like you should have included this.

>Guess which party's loyalists watch exclusively Fox News?

There have been studies that show the majority of Fox News viewers watch news from multiple news sources.

>Education correlates with increases in Democratic votes.

Being educated does not mean informed about politics. Having a bachelors in biology doesn't mean somebody knows anything about various policies.

>Christianity with Republican ones.

In 2014 it was estimated that 84% of democrats believed in God to varying levels. Christianity is common throughout both parties.

>It's not about information, it's about income.

I agree that there is a difference in voting based on income but that does not mean it is because of income.
Civil forfeiture works "best" in small jurisdictions harassing driver-bys who aren't constituents, right?

I think we can go for defunding in the major metros (which also have the more powerful police departments in absolute terms), and then go after the smaller jurisdiction police (with more relative power) with/after fixed laws.

Also, if the police are curtailed in the urban areas, and Covid fear lowers the rent, poor persons of color can "vote with their feet" and move from Fergusons to Saint Louises. Not the best solution, but I can't imagine a friendly supreme court too soon so this is better than nothing.

Taking a data driven approach to improving flaky builds
Can you actually point to a success story in changing an organization from the inside?
If you have container orchestration in place, being able to use it to run VMs via qemu is actually incredibly useful and isn't really much of a yikes. Sure, you're losing the container's isolation features, but you have a VM there, which is even stronger isolation.

We do CI for our VM images in our kubernetes clusters. The build system already was in kubernetes, so putting the OS image testing in there was a big win.

The benefit of doing this is also that on a personal machine you can start playing with an OSX vm with a single docker run command with no other dependencies and many people already have docker setup, whereas standardized qemu/virtualization tooling is now much less common on developer machines

I saw this post, I'm not qualified to try to answer it, but I will say this.

If you learn how to wrap a web site/app in a docker container, and connect that site to an external database / fileshare, you have the core kernel needed to have easy access to the cloud services.

The cloud services offer various vendor-specific features. But unless you want to become an AWS engineer, etc., you will want to use each cloud platform's flavor of virtual machines.

Azure and AWS are fine to learn. I'm nervous that GCP will either be killed as a product, or your google account will be smoked by some AI, and either way, you won't be able to recover that investment in a google-controlled product.

I had someone who was an old Perl cowboy teach me Azure, but I'm certain that Udemy has a course that will work for teaching Azure or AWS.

Hope this helps.

How accessible is Grid.js? The main differentiator between table libraries for me these days is accessibility. Many libraries and frameworks out there do it poorly. The better ones are often tied to company-specific frameworks.

From playing around a bit, I've at least noticed that sortable headers have no focus indicator, the "sort column ascending" text gets included in the column's accessible name, and un-sortable column headers are read as clickable by screen readers.

I would LOVE a framework-agnostic table library that's both lightweight and fully accessible. If there's a chance for Grid.js to take this in its philosophy, I would be all in!
