Since COVID started I've been using some mobile ordering apps more and more. One of my new favorites is Whataburger here in Texas.

Texans know that Whataburger is infamous for being slow since everything is made to order. In-n-Out has figured it out but Whataburger is still so slow for some reason. With the app, I can place an order in my driveway, then arrive at the drive thru about the time its ready. If I'm lucky, I can skip the line and pull up and have it brought out in a few minutes. What used to be a 20 minute parking lot wait crawling through the line is now 5~ minutes.

Sometimes if it's busy or late at night and they don't have as many staff, I have to wait my turn in line, but I'm usually not sitting for 5 minutest at the window after paying waiting for the grill. Oh and that's another benefit. Apple Pay makes it seamless to place an order and not deal with CCs that are wearing out being declined.

My biggest complaint is still being required to download a separate app for each restaurant, but for now I can tuck them all away into a folder and forget they exist. If an app isn't in my home screen, I'm going to open it from a spotlight search.

For restaurants I don't visit as frequently, I'll call them and place an order for pickup. This also has the benefit of not incurring many of the BS fees that specialty online ordering platforms charge. It's going to take me a few minutes to order anyway, app or call, so I might as well save 10% by calling.
Can you imagine being in a class to learn programming or something and your teacher starts talking about how A is a master and B is a slave? Can you imagine that your phenotype matches a minority population that was formerly enslaved? Can you imagine that you're the only such person in your programming class, and feeling everyone's eyes run over you when these terms are first used? Can you imagine that being, if nothing else, a distracting or unwelcoming experience?

Sure, technically git doesn't use both ends of this metaphor and it probably comes from something like "gold master" in this case. But if you're throwing up your hands like the underlying intent is absurd, maybe chew on it a bit more?
Sure, see for example: https://www.flatpak.org/
Lottery Odds Question
In a lottery that let’s you choose numbers between 1-70 for the five “white” balls, and numbers between 1-25 for the sixth “mega” ball, if after being drawn the white balls are ordered from least to greatest, what is the probability of getting exactly the lowest two white balls?

For example, let’s say the winning numbers for the first five white balls when ordered from least to greatest is 1,2,3,4,5 and the sixth mega ball is 10. What is the probability of getting exactly the lowest two white balls 1 and 2 correct and no other numbers?

Note that this is different than the probability of getting any two numbers to match- this is the probability of getting the lowest two numbers to match.
I'm astonished anyone ever thought otherwise. Has anyone ever encountered a git branch called 'slave'?

I've been doing 50mg, but not religious/daily probably remembering 3-4 days per week... Vitamin D is daily though as my surgery I had causes some vitamin deficiency and I'm VERY D deficient.
While there was almost certainly no original malintent with the phrase 'master' in this context, it's a very small and relatively easy change to make to avoid hiccups down the road. Even if you don't agree that this is needed, I think it's clear that it's easier to just rename it now than it would be to explain to someone a few months down the road the deep historical context for why this should not offend them.
Interesting, funny that Apple's own design constraints have in the past not been able to fully get the most out of Intel chips anyway.

Take the cooling/throttling problems as an example.

Goodluck to them on building a better chip.
potentially much smaller, since you don't need to bundle the full content of all articles to be able to search them.
That would be fun. Someone clearly disagreed with me though, for I have one downvote now? Lol.
Oh awesome! Targeting something real like MIPS was going to be my next step!
Corona viruses are a fraction of the yearly flu, this one is branded.
One of the things I picked up from HN a few months ago was bettering my remote setup -- I picked up a HDMI capture card for my mirrorless camera, and bought a few lights to brighten up my office, and then I purchased a cardioid microphone and a pop filter.

The difference is night and day based on some of the recordings I've heard.
(If you go down this route you might prefer ag/the silver surfer/similar, as being faster than grep.)

I've actually reported a couple of security bugs in servers in the past, which were caused by people running grep for searches.

Imagine you have a tree of web-content at /var/www, when a user searches for "foo" you run "grep -r -h foo /var/www", then you parse out the resulting filenames.

Now imagine what happens if your user searches for "foo /tmp; rm -rf /". Whenever you pass user-input to a command-line application you need to be damn sure you know what you're doing - if the shell is involved in parsing your command you'll have problems.
Great article, especially the bit about the healthcare professionals' statement on BLM protests. However this article (and the public at large) fail to distinguish between what doctors practice, and science. Medical doctors are about as far from scientists as you can get: they're highly trained robots. They don't perform science; at best they write up a case study. Jumping to conclusions from insufficient data is what they consider "expertise".
In terms of not performing what the user might expect from search behaviour, an example I found was the following:

A word "elasticlunr", appears in the linked article, and the linked article appears in search results, but searching any partial string such as "elastic", "elasticl" "elasticlu" and "elasticlun" will not result in finding the linked article. Perhaps this behaviour is intended by the author, but it may not be intended by the various users of the site.

Oddly,

> elastic* and elasticl*

does find the linked article, but

> elasticlu* and elasticlun*

do not.
I heard it decreases your likelihood like maybe 10-20%, but I'd imagine viral load goes way down compared to if you're not wearing one, so that could possibly have a better outcome from wearing one vs not wearing one... Imagine if healthcare workers just said fuck it and wore no PPE's how much sicker and faster would we start losing med workers?
The article is from 2015. From the profile, it sounds like she no longer works there and the profile was updated to reflect that.
you have proven my point
No one will automate for automations sake - businesses choose how to deploy capital to improve efficiency, which can be achieved through scale or going after the largest cost
So, an Amazon warehouse works like a grocery store from back then? What is the ratio #sold goods / #human worker for Amazon and for an old fashioned grocery store?
I think this is referring to his list of "Movies You Must See Before You Die". On that note, I should mention "Gates of Heaven", which is part of that list. A compelling documentary on animal cemeteries, by Errol Morris.

Mingw on mac is evidently in homebrew. I've never used it, no idea how well it works. I don't write Windows software if I can ever help it.
Don't talk about your mom that way.
I lost 100 about 2 years ago by rededicating, and doing crossfit, been a bit lazy past year so kinda just stagnating then dieting a month or so if I gain some so I at least don't go up...

Was gonna go back to crossfit in March, but covid hit lol.
Interesting, but the headline is a bit misleading. „The heart of Northern Europe“ sounds like it’s in the Nordic countries, whereas the study is about the Eifel region, in the West of Germany and pretty close to the heart of Europe.
It wasn't _just_ the sandboxing. It took an unreasonably long time for MS to loosen restrictions on "sideloading" (read: distributing sandboxed apps outside of the Microsoft Store), and the deployment story for line-of-business applications was abysmal for years.

I'm not saying the AppContainer sandbox is perfect, but I suspect it would have gone over a lot better if the early distribution story for UWP had been less of a disaster.
Jordan Peterson? So are you saying now that having a PhD in Clinical Psychology makes you a pseudo-scientist?

Hundreds of scholarly papers cited thousands of times. But it's pseudo-science. Psychology might not be an exact science but it IS a genuine scholarship meant to understand human behavior.

Feel free to make your case based on "I just don't like him" though, I'm sure it will be very interesting and will include the "R" word.
To not be bothered, even though the 'master' analogy isn't applicable in the context of git branches, is coming from a place of privilege. I hope the folks saying such a change 'goes too far' could walk away after reading all the comments with a delta on this point. To you (generically), it may not matter. But we cannot project our own feelings onto others.

>Employees of Axios don't share polital views as a rule, so I'm not sure what you are referring to. I don't see how that is consistent with the rest of the article

That is blatantly untrue. Axios is so slanted to left bias that is hurts. Check the frontpage: 8 out of 10 stories are clearly pro-BLM, anti-police or anti-Trump. The rest are on Covid-19.

Take the Twitter profiles of the Top 3 authors on Axios:

https://twitter.com/jacknutson
https://twitter.com/erica_pandey
https://twitter.com/davidlawler10

The tweets and re-tweets are no much different from actual political activists.
I disagree. Changing a word which could potentially offend someone even though it is not rooted in something offensive is exhausting and silly. People can find anything to be offended by. If someone is ignorant about the terminology, such as the 'master branch', then I would explain to them the history of the word. That is much easier than forcing everyone to change industry standard terminology with the bonus of conveying some knowledge.
That book and Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat by Samin Nosrat are my go to when i want to understand why something works :)
It's not a 'proven' but a lot of 'talk' and studies, but I'm D deficient anyways, so it can't hurt me, and if I live through covid infection, well even better :) At least it's something I can do to feel 'productive' for my health and maybe it's just a placebo but sometimes those actually work themselves - to protect from severe outcomes with illness.
License for Ultimate is cheap enough that if you're going to buy 3 or more of their product, it's better to just buy Ultimate (assuming the tools are provided by plugins in Ultimate).
Very impressive work, but I am not familiar with auto-API generators, so I have some basic questions:

What if the foreign key reference was not an parent-child relationship, instead was a one-to-many relationship between 2 first class entities? For example, Company (1) related to Contacts (many), but they should be accessed as /v1/companies/:id and /v1/contacts/:id.

What if there was a unique constraint on the foreign key reference, so that the relationship becomes a one-to-one relationship? What does the auto-generated REST endpoint look like?

How does it handle join-tables which implement many-to-many relationships? Does it generate the REST end point for the join-table instead?

How does it handle different subcollection semantics? In other words, sometimes we want to treat the entire subcollection as an atomic entity. Other times, we want to create, delete and update individual elements of the subcollection.

How does it support SQL query optimizations?
Push the corpus into SQLite, it has built-in FTS engines[^1]. Then serve it with anything. Unfortunately this needs server side code, but like 30 lines of PHP.

Thanks, I had VSG which helped, but got stuck at 510, then crossfit + switching to diet soda got me down to 420 where I'm floating now... Need to go back to crossfit when covid is over w/...
We had a master branch that was actually named 'au'. It took me quite a while to realize the connection.
After a while, you'd think why this isn't the default in other editors. (At least VSCode jumps to obvious sources.)
I am a fan of open software, and also a realist. I think what he did is great. My only concern is that the source code in the book is gpl licensed (and not MIT or better public domain). This means for the student taking the class he technically is not allowed to use anything later in his work life (except of course he works for an open source company, which only a few do, bigger exception if the company uses the software only inhouse - but then he is in the EE department, so this means most students might work on products later).
nice. for me the real challenge is organizing what I learned from each user interviews.
Look up the Ruwandan Uprising: what color were they? Barbary Slave Trade: what color were they? Khmer Rouge: what color were they? People massacre one another at the drop of a hat, just learn some history.

You have been taught to only fixate on the crimes of Caucasians and to ignore all others.

As someone w/ a very deep D Deficiency, it can't hurt and may benefit, having o-positive blood is also a plus, so I guess we'll see as I'm sure I'll catch it someday. It's starting to explode here in Utah lately.... we went from 100/day avg to 560 last friday in new cases.
Perhaps there is some privilege in having knowledge to understand where the terminology comes from, but that doesn't mean that it should change because of someone else's ignorance.
It costs basically nothing to do this if you feel strongly about it.

It costs you literally nothing if you don’t care / don’t agree and don’t do it yourself.

Just live and let live; is being outraged by it not just as bad as what you’re criticising?

Should we care what other people call their branches now?!!? How regressive.
Is Hadoop still the way to go for big data solutions? My feeling based on my social bubble is that less and less solutions are built on it. The recent stackoverflow survey seems to indicate it is not very popular anymore.

The Theory of American Decline
If you tell people which words they are allowed to speak based on programming convenience, then you will turn them into robots.

By the way did you know that the etymology of robot? Wikipedia has this to say

> The word robot was introduced to the public by the Czech interwar writer Karel Čapek in his play R.U.R. (Rossum's Universal Robots), published in 1920.[79] The play begins in a factory that uses a chemical substitute for protoplasm to manufacture living, simplified people called robots. The play does not focus in detail on the technology behind the creation of these living creatures, but in their appearance they prefigure modern ideas of androids, creatures who can be mistaken for humans. These mass-produced workers are depicted as efficient but emotionless, incapable of original thinking and indifferent to self-preservation. At issue is whether the robots are being exploited and the consequences of human dependence upon commodified labor (especially after a number of specially-formulated robots achieve self-awareness and incite robots all around the world to rise up against the humans).

> Karel Čapek himself did not coin the word. He wrote a short letter in reference to an etymology in the Oxford English Dictionary in which he named his brother, the painter and writer Josef Čapek, as its actual originator.[79]

> In an article in the Czech journal Lidové noviny in 1933, he explained that he had originally wanted to call the creatures laboři ("workers", from Latin labor). However, he did not like the word, and sought advice from his brother Josef, who suggested "roboti". The word robota means literally "corvée", "serf labor"
Thanks! I don't know why I didn't spot check for this mistake. Is one I make enough that I specifically look for it most posts... (Well, most posts it is relevant. Clearly missed this one...)
Living in a country where people are expensive and machines are cheap, I can attest the automation level is higher here. For instance, I often see cows at farms here enjoying automated brushing systems. There are youtube videos in english, but I don't recall ever having seen something like that in the US, even at Harris Ranch.

(I have yet to witness a farmer using fully-autonomous hay feeding robots, but the ag magazines have been running articles on them)
Oh my god, I had no idea airpods were so bad.

Crazy that airpods have that much latency. I have bluetooth in the car and it has way too much latency - I thought Apple had improved it to not be noticeable but I never checked the numbers.

Incidentally, for playing midi instruments you generally want things to be below 8ms to feel natural. 150ms is an eternity.

Is the lipsync ok if you watch a video on an iphone with airpods?

I've been a fan of Matthias' project for a while. I learned about it soon after starting Stork: https://stork-search.net

They're very similar and share a lot of principles, though Matthias went full-on towards the algorithmic aspect and I focused on the experience of including the UI (copy-pastable from the code on the home page) and building a search index.

I think WASM-aided in-browser search is really exciting! There are clear benefits for content creators (embedding search on a Jamstack site has historically been tricky) and for users alike (Caching & offline support is pretty rad if your users are doing a lot of searching). I'm excited to see Matthias' project get attention here!
Transportation technically is faster than the speed of light, because if travelling at the speed of light you get to point B in 5 years, and by using a warp drive/worm hole device you get their in 3 days, you've traveled faster than light, doesn't matter if you cheated using physics, you still got their in a fraction of the time. Sure you're 'speed limit' didn't exceed the speed of light, but the distance/normal travel time DID exceed the speed of light, so it's just semantics.
I ended up using the director and cast that are listed for most reviews on Ebert's site for matching the right movie. Even that required some tricks due to spelling errors or differences in how names were listed. I then flagged any matches that weren't unique or where the title wasn't similar enough for me to manually review. I think I only had to double-check about a hundred or so.

I didn't use the letterboxd api. Instead, I generated csv files for the letterboxd importer. I then did a csv export from their site I could reconcile to look for import errors.

Trivia: Ebert reviewed a few adult films which I couldn't import to letterboxd because the site officially doesn't allow those.

BTW, it's only $19/year for an account. I have my own account I pay for which follows the re2 account. That way I can easily see any of the re2 reviews for movies in my own watchlist.
- Debugger - doesn't matter which one - just stop using echo / print for complex debugging.

- Good IDE - I prefer Jetbrains products, once you learn all the shortcuts for the various functions it just makes things much faster than constantly switching between windows.

- Sublime text - Not as an IDE but columnar editing and fast construction / munging of data files is crucial for efficiency

- Linux / Bash / Shell - learn the tools - sure you can write a script to do most things but learning how to pipe some commands together to get some certain output is universally useful. Learn the basic VIM key bindings, you should be able to comfortably copy,paste,save,select etc
Discoverable? Not for me.

I've been reading the output of 'help' and reading it, and reading it, and I can't see a paradigm (apart from prolixity) or much consistency.

Unix commands have the advantage of brevity, and the inconsistencies somehow aid memorization.
I'm also curious, how does zola compare to jekyll?
