Smells like concurrency issues to me.

Hey,it's all good. You wrote something cool that connects a dozen different technologies, did it all in C++ in a short time frame - and you're just a student! That's great!

You're not a bad programmer - maybe you're just bad at system design/software architecture. And that's not bad - that's great. A lot of folks go into the field and work for a few years until they start learning about architecture and experience what problems it can cause. You just had that experience, now go read up and figure out how to rewrite it into V3. Take some extra time to think about the models, the abstractions, the components, go through edge cases in your head, figuring out if and how your system acccounts for them.
Try not to overengineer it - you probably will - but don't think that means you will suck forever, you will learn with time and experience.

Well, then we should start thinking about focusing on the study areas which indeed produce human capital. There are still far too many academic studies today that bring little or no benefit to the economy, where graduates hardly find jobs and instead increase social costs. As long as we don't do that, it doesn't matter if someone is still studying and doing a doctorate at 66. At least then they will already have an old-age pension and will not have to draw unemployment benefit or social assistance.

Thanks for making it - this seems like a nice solution for me, as I just bought a stronger laptop again after dailying a Dell 5285 for a while (almost perfect, but screen and power are just not enough and I barely ended up using the pen for notes anyway).

This seems almost perfect for such a setup. You can even get a graphics tablet for little money, since those 8-10" intel atom windows tablets from 2013 or so are super cheap now!

I have to admit the facts known to me are simply: plugging in the HDMI cable stopped the bug.

We didn’t dig further than that, though the error was quite obscure until we read the source code, at which point we realized that the “FB” the error mentioned meant the Linux console framebuffer.

I assume the Python module for operating this device ships with a GUI, which is couple to some Linux framebuffer initialization code, which in turn only works if the framebuffer is enabled, which presumably it isn’t if the host boots without an HDMI device connected.
If the debtor claims the creditor's stick is fraudulent how is that resolved? The tally stick doesn't solve this problem.
You can pre-build the static bin for the target platforms, you know exactly what are the bits in the blob on the user's box, and you can ship a binary diff and do incremental evergreen auto-updates. Probably faster and less brittle than testing/shipping and keeping Python up to date on the user's box.
That does not make sense.

Please explain how the position of the sensor could affect the mouse movement, unless you're tilting the mouse.
The CDC estimate (IFR 0.26%, S-IFR 0.4%) is heavily criticized because it ignores, thus predates, the 3 largest and most reliable serosurveys which all indicate an IFR of ~1% (S-IFR ~1.54%, assuming 35% of cases are asymptomatic):

1.0% in Brazil based on 25,025 samples https://twitter.com/GidMK/status/1267670267624476672

1.14% in Spain based on 60,897 samples https://twitter.com/zorinaq/status/1265405628853305345

0.92% in NYC and 0.84% in New York State based on 15,101 samples https://twitter.com/GidMK/status/1267669314657611777

Also YYG, the guy who runs https://covid19-projections.com/ (a model that has consistently produced the most accurate forecasts) reported his model found that a ~1% IFR gave the best fit: https://mobile.twitter.com/youyanggu/status/1256051255253757...

Note: S-IFR is the fatality of symptomatic cases only. IFR is the fatality of all cases (asymptomatic and symptomatic)

Ask HN: Is there a good way to move a stack from 1 pod to another in OpenStack?
There are some servers running in pod1 with network1 and IP1. Now need to change them to network2 and IP2 in pod2.

If don't delete all the servers in pod1 and create new stack with new IPs in pod2, is there an another way to do? Such as create snapshot, move the snapshot to pod2. But not sure if the snapshot can change to new IP.

From everything I’ve read, MS (and other telemetry-happy developers like JetBrains) see telemetry as a way to gather statistics about UI interaction patterns and popularity of this or that component, so that they can prioritise development towards the most popular features and problems. It’s a bit like our good old “Popularity Contest” package in Linux, but applied to UI elements and behaviours. It’s the sort of thing that resulted in a massive Paste button on the first Office ribbon, because telemetry said Paste was the most used feature.

Sometimes I wonder if I should turn all telemetry on, so that they’d have a datapoint that actually matches my workflow rather than Joe Schmoe’s. It’s a bit invasive though, and culturally speaking is a horrible model (“I can’t change things unless you let me watch what you do all the time”).

Obviously if you care about privacy you should keep telemetry off, but to be honest, if you don’t trust Microsoft to respect common decency about private code, you just shouldn’t use a tool they built in the first place. I use JetBrains tools and trust them enough to leave telemetry on (“voting” for my preferred features, effectively). If you do any politically-sensitive work, though, you should absolutely stay the hell away - because then it doesn’t matter what they do with it today, but what they could do if they wanted (i.e. under pressure from authorities).
When you use it for a long time, you can get used to the unusual movement of the cursor. But that does not mean that the movement is not problematic.
It's like looking through a cracked screen. You dont notice the crack 24/7 but it definitely hinders your view.
This looks nice, but I'd question what about this is "full stack"?

While full stack frameworks are unlikely to actually build at every layer of the stack, I'd expect them to be aware of and do something to address each layer. At a minimum I'd expect an ORM of some sort, something around validation of data from the client, bits for building APIs, potentially a structure for building frontend assets, tooling around deployments and maybe migrations.

This isn't what a lot of developers want, but it is full-stack. Maybe more things should be happy _not_ being full-stack and owning the idea that they are good at one part of the stack.
In many cases it will prove difficult to even be able to build or run software that hasn't been touched in 10+ years. Preserving the computational environment is a whole another concern for future software archeology.

The destruction of those codixes is, without a doubt, one of the greatest acts of cultural vandalism in history. Absolutely tragic.

At the same time, I've read a bit more about that incident, and... this is probably not politically correct to say, but I did develop some sympathy for that bishop. Yes, he was a religious zealot who couldn't distinguish other cultures from "satanism". But also, well, the Maya were in a pretty rough state when he encountered them. They'd been experiencing severe drought and civil war and plagues brought by the Europeans and more. Their way of dealing with this was mass human sacrifice. The Maya didn't have a sacrificial-industrial complex the way that the Aztecs did, but when nothing else would appease the gods, that's what they'd do.

So anyhow, the Bishop had apparently witnessed a mass human sacrifice. Of children. And it really got to him, convincing him that their religion was strictly satanic. Given his own cultural frame, and what he witnessed, it's hard for me to say that I would have done any differently under the circumstances. That would've gotten under my skin too. Hard to say I would've kept perspective after that.

The context was one where we were learning about how things work, rather than wanting to just know the answer per se.

I always _try_ to show how one can answer problems from first principles before resorting to “go look it up on stack overflow”.

It boosts ones sense of usefulness as a teacher if one can occasionally give more in depth answers as teachable moments.

For one thing, demonstrating deeper understand is how you score high marks in exams.
Is it tearing down when we say the truth about those people lives instead of false happy victory narratives? One problem with that is that it gives us beautiful narrative of just world in which great awesome happy people get to win the day. Another problem is that people make conclusions about history and past societies from those stories. They are not really consistent with how real world about us works. It makes opponents of famous historical characters sound like rambling idiots, where they sometimes really had good points. It also makes us expect unrealistic greatness and make us take those people as authorities in questions where we should not. It makes us miss biases those people had too.

And not all in that reflects badly Dickens himself. I mean, this is not exactly something that I would see as tearing down Dickens, that is just having screwed childhood in way we like to pretend did not happened:

> He briskly takes us through the story of the penury, the period in the debtors’ prison, the aborted education, the banishment, aged 10, to menial labour in Warren’s Blacking warehouse. [...] In his final chapter, he remembers first encountering episodes from Dickens at the age of eight or nine at his private school, which was “in effect a concentration camp run by sexual perverts”.

The way Dickens treated his wife and kids (preventing them access to her) indeed sounds abusive, but to me, it is also indeed the way horrible treatment in childhood can end up being reproduced in adult hood in real life.

Even contemporary great artists/scientists can be abusers and what not. And we collectively seem to have problem to accept that, we seem to want to think that greatness in one area must imply greatness in other area.

You seem to be disagreeing with the OP about how to explain Monads, yet the link provided by the OP is referred to as a "non-explanation".

It is true that Monads are a pain point in Haskell. They are extremely powerful but not easy to grok, even by some very smart programmers.

Quote from main article about Monads:

> "Monads.....Despite many attempts though, I don’t think we have yet found the best way of explaining what they actually are. "

and

> " The Wikipedia article has quite a good example of non-explanation."
It doesn’t matter, the advice was for the whole population not to go buy masks.
I am doubtful that one or two social workers removing a child from a risk-filled home will be a generally safe procedure. At a minimum, they will need to protect themselves, and at some point we're talking about an armed, possibly violent (the abuser might see it as legal kidnapping) officer of the law.

A 10% rate of violence is huge, especially when irrationality and domestic abuse is involved. If armed police are reduced dramatically in number, will they be able to respond in ten minutes?

Key words: starting to see. Using that now is 20/20 hindsight.
I also note that we still don’t have a clue in this discussion what the telemetry even includes despite tools and probably even documentation detailing this already existing.

Unless there are clear statements and guarantees that nothing will change in future updates without the user's express consent, the statements themselves aren't worth much anyway in this kind of discussion.

Microsoft's privacy policies are notoriously opaque, to the point where you'll have trouble verifying that, for example, they aren't granting themselves the right to upload your source code. This observation almost invariably attracts downvotes, but anyone who thinks I'm exaggerating can easily refute the point by citing the places in Microsoft's documentation that say otherwise and guarantee not to change that in the future.
Genuinely curious,

My possibly biased perception is that people in Europe are more "internationally aware" (for lack of a better word) than those in the US. e.g. a website that is built in Europe but likely to attract international interest will include a timezone.

The schedule[0] for this just has dates and times. I have no idea when anything is, though some of it looks interesting.

Is there a "default" timezone that Americans assume on an American-centric site that doesn't actually state timezones? California?

Obviously if you care about privacy you should keep telemetry off, but to be honest, if you don’t trust Microsoft to respect common decency about private code, you just shouldn’t use a tool they built in the first place.

Isn't that the point of today's discussion: you can use the privacy-respecting alternative instead?
Much as we may decry the “lawyer disease,” when we read stories like these, we have to conclude that the only recourse for some folks is a lawsuit.

To me it's not evident otherwise until i'm capable of observing bare data itself. Not obfuscated, not in some proprietary format to secure it in-transport but the raw stuff.
MS states there's no reliable way to let people see the data being collected (even under GDPR) as there's no sing-in experience provided.[0]

While a part of the statement is true, most of privacy conscious VSC users aware that every installation of the product has a unique `machineId` property. Can be located at Output -> Log (Shared).

The [0] provides some elaboration:

"We do send information that helps us approximate a single user for diagnostic purposes (this is based on a hash of the network adapter NIC) but this is not guaranteed to be unique. For example, virtual machines (VMs) often rotate NIC IDs or allocate from a pool. This technique is sufficient to help us when working through problems, but it is not reliable enough for us to 'provide your data'."

So, given the premise the user can be identified by a NIC plus a machineId (which looks to be an UUID) — it's easy to get access to collected data. As soon as ability to verify no really critical data is collected, i'll switch back from VSCodium.

It's not really possible in Django to force this as each library will implement that in a different way (or may not even support the binary protocol). Django adding validation is easy, unlikely to cause issues, and makes all usage safe unless the user explicitly overrides the behaviour.

Plus, Django actually implements these checks for non-Memcached backends, raising warnings if keys aren't Memcached compatible. This is done because very often in local development users might run the "local memory" cache backend, which is just a Python dict. In this case they probably want to know that what they're doing won't work when it gets to Memcached in production.

Since when does the telemetry even send out any contents of any files?

Since pretty much forever? At the very least, many programs with built-in telemetry have included things like memory dumps of key areas at the time of a crash, which could include data the user was working on at the time.

More seriously, I invite you to read Microsoft's extensive privacy policies and try to satisfy yourself that they don't grant themselves the right to upload your code. They are sufficiently nebulous and ambiguous that they could probably be interpreted that way.
> Because all credit is also money creation! (Broad money). Anyone with a pen can create money by writing an IOU. This is one of the things the goldbugs don't seem to understand properly.

I cannot do fractional reserve banking. And if I can't do that then I can't really create money. A bank can have a fraction of the real hard currency that others can spend in "reserve" (physical or electronic). I cannot do that, I cannot borrow you $50 and some other guy $50 if I only had $50.

So I dunno, depends on what you mean by money creation, but writing an IOU is different from what money creation is in the sense that most people mean. It is closer to issuing a bond, which is not really money creation.
There are lots of factors. One major factor is that women are working now. If you are a full time mom it's possible to take care of 4 children or even more. If you are working you have to pay for childcare and it gets more expensive the more children you have. Those pregnancies also impact your career negatively so there is an upper bound that limits how many children you can have. It wouldn't surprise me if that upper bound is around 2-3 children and other factors drag it down to reach the average birth rate.

The argument could be made that this is the first pandemic that the world failed in decades. MERS, SARS, Ebola, etc, are all examples of pandemics we did not see because the groundwork, learnings and operational cooperation was already in place.
