The retail investors are fully aware of what the author describes and are pushing their conclusion forward: Nothing matters. Being trapped in binaries we strangle. This is a cultural disavowel landing on an economic register. Dragging white supremacy into the public realm is another such motion.
OP here,

We prefer to use PIC microcontrollers because they come in a DIP package.

Our products are mainly sold as PCBs that a customer assembles in their own home, appealing to the DIY electronics market.

For many, SMD is challenging, so having a DIP package makes us more available.

Additionally, the ability to use less power is useful because our products do not have an onboard power supply, instead relying on the rack's supply that may be shared between many products.
Good point. Case in point: Cancellara's masterful descent here [1]. It's one of the least aerodynamic (I'm certain I can get more aero on a straight descent), but I would get dropped hard on the first curve. Especially on curvy descents, it's all about taking the right line at the right speed. But I am happy to see Froome's position is not even that aero. It certainly looked unstable.

I have worked with the library a good bit, and it is definitely getting there. There is still too much reliance on ssrcs and simulcast is not directly supported yet. There is discussion of a v3 API on the horizon which is interesting as well. I have used it well in multiple cases, the library is clean and the responsiveness of devs on the slack channel is great.

Once it gets simulcast, I may build my own Jitsi kinda thing with it. Also as already mentioned by the other comment, Ion is the main one they are building.

What I meant was that in a tech support context if you ask people what browser they're using they will often say something like "I went to Product Name" or "I'm on Product Name". Then ask them what actual address they visited or again ask them what browser they are using and they will say something like "I went to the Internet".

I am not calling anybody dumb. I'm saying they don't care and don't know there is any reason to care.
That’s an important distinction. The way we handled it was by letting managers define their acceptable level of risk and then use the model to define the estimates in that context.

For example, if they were ok with a 60% chance of making or beating a cost estimate, the forecast could be much more aggressive than, say, a management expectation of 90% chance of being on budget
You consider building a website a menial task? I can't understand that mindset at all.
It’s fine to be wrong. I missed that paragraph in his essay.

But there is a reason why that paragraph was missed, and Ive tried to portray the reason why that might be in my other comments.

I’m not trying to change your mind. I’m trying to address the reasons why his op ed was deemed to be so revolting. A lot of the comments seem to confess a kind of willful blindness to the awfulness involved in that essay and I’m trying to make a good faith argument to explain why that perspective is justified.
In Firefox CTRL+SHIFT+R does a hard refresh as well. I don’t know about other browsers.
It's definitely a more marginal usage but I think I follow. After virtue signaling, the other major critique or qualifier for so called SJW positions/tactics way back before it became an alt right catchphrase was that they were often infantilizing to the advocated, often devaluing/ignoring the agency of the advocated. It's like a stronger/stricter flavour of you don't speak for me/them or don't speak/advocate for me/them without permission, the contention often being who speaks or decides membership for said group/label. That goes along with the theory the fundamental disagreement between SJW and Anti-SJW arises out of a broader cultural disagreement/conflict over the balance between individualist vs collectivist rights and concepts of fairness/justice.

In that context, I think the connection implied above might be that those pushing for this are infantilizing the end-users by choosing to hide the URL from/for them because they think the end-users can't/aren't good enough at deciding for themselves.
We are not there yet. Musl works great for new projects sure, people should definitely default to it instead of glibc. But a lot of existing software doesn't just work with it, sometimes requiring way too much work and expertise to get there. I completely gave up trying to use it on arm for example, or rather on anything non-amd64, and on amd64 most software had to be patched to even compile with musl.
Tell them you're looking to join a company precisely to get mentorship, see how a successful company operates, learn to work in larger product lines, etc. That way you're pre-emptively going around the Founder damage issue.
Yeah ultimately you always have the option of treating a stock as what it actually is (a stream of dividends), and the more random prices get, the more people will do that (because more dividend streams will be priced below NPV)
I think you are missing the point of the article. I read it as "this desktop software could make use of serverless to provide me a re-encoded 4gb video file in seconds by doing 3000" tasks (provided my bandwidth could handle that). My gripe with that is the one of privacy (I do not want my data processed elsewhere).

Still I would not be opposed to such client-server(less) architecture being used where I could have slower devices seamlessly integrating with my personal server for faster processing of compute heavy tasks.

It's not that this hasn't been done before (thin clients anyone? Even X server model is exactly like that), but a similar approach could make a come back at some point.

Chakra UI is a widget toolkit, so it's not on the same level of comparison.

React will use JSX and can use all the cool new JS stuff, e.g. module imports, template literals. With webpack there's automated code splitting. The toolchain is under very active development (from react, to webpack, to babel, to new dependencies I've never heard of - aside: a downside is the dependency graph in node can be crazy)

If your site is simple enough, server site templates will do. For anything non-trivial, where there's a lot of reusability and its very async / API heavy, the benefits shift dramatically to including a frontend framework.

Regarding server side templates, there's limitations to how far templates engines (e.g. django templates / jinja2) can take you. Extending templates works when done carefully, as does overriding blocks. Anything non-trivial becomes very hard to manage - there's no type safety, setting variables is burdensome.

On parataxic, there's no server. It's all static files served from cloudfront via Gatsby (to get an idea of this: https://jamstack.org/)
Your point about strings being pulled on the anti-SJW side is something I find really interesting. In fact, the strings are being pulled on 'division' itself. People without much of a side in the matter stoking the divide.

The most obvious example of this recently must be the 'SJW' that went round on the underground spraying bleach on men who were 'man-spreading' that turned out to very probably be fake.

I feel like everyone needs to learn the 'sniff test' - for things that both agree and disagree with our world view.

There never has there been such a large and sophisticated effort to manipulate the the population by shaping the information that gets to us.
> I am only disagreeing with people in the thread turning it into an excuse to never talk about politics on the workplace.

If I was running a company, I would prefer employees not to talk about politics because it will create needless arguments that have nothing to do with the job at hand. If I am an employee, if there is a disagreement about something, how do I know there is not going to be a long-standing hatred from a colleague about my position on a topic that will manifest itself in unpredictable ways.

There are too many activists which make every topic good vs evil and life vs death.

Show HN: Book2.app, convert your original PDF into an Android and PWA App
What do you mean verified? Do you think we're in the center of it?
FastNetMon is a life saver. First installed it when there was no paid / advanced version just to blackhole hosts under attack. Then negotiated with our upstream provider to have BGP Flowspec support e.g. block specific types of traffic.

Back then, UDP Amplification attacks were scariest of them all and FastNetMon was able to send Flowspec announcements to our upstream to block, for instance, traffic to UDP/53 port, which kept the host alive most of the times.
Hello community!

I'm David, CEO of Ipsilon Developments. I while ago, we developed and published a new crossplatform app called Book2App to enable authors to convert their original PDF work into
an Android & PWA App with no technical knowledge.

The app automatically parses the PDF into a web viewer with 2 views and converts it into a ready to publish APK & and a hosted web PWA.

It also allows you to create extra pages into the app, where you can embed google forms, social media posts (as FB, IG & YT), images etc..

The objective behind this app was to let authors reach new audiences, inside the playstore & in the web, even whiteout technical knowledge, adding also interactive & multimedia content
that you can't do on a PDF format on the most common book publishing platform.

Loving to hear what you all think about it, all feedback is more than welcome!
What makes all pieces sound so similar isn't the fixed scale, it's that it's always the same "instrument" and always made of quarter notes.

Don't get scared off by the LinkedIn hosting. It appears to be a legit, interesting, and thoughtful article.
As an other commenter wrote, if you know some software engineering, you are already valuable to all biotech companies, so it's probably better to go there as an engineer first and pick up the biology on the side than to go back to school and waste 5 years of your life without providing real value.
My problem is, I still would have 8 hours in which I must exercise restraint. Packing away 4k calories in a single meal is trivially easy. There is no way to avoid the need for restraint and moderation.
I still doubt that. People know how to enter URLs. They chose not to because it's oftentimes easier just to search where you want to go. Google Chrome hasn't gotten this market dominance by people not caring. It has to installed actively.

Even if, showing the URL bar changes nothing for them, so why hide it?

...oh, huh, did something change in the past few years? I just checked, and the nightly builds do not download a full, usable app.

I could have sworn they used to though. You’d get an app called “Webkit”, but it functioned just like Safari for all intents and purposes.

I like the explanation that IF gives your body a chance to go into ketosis. And, by extension, a keto diet provides the same benefits as IF. Combining the two is easy since in my experience you rarely get hanger pangs when you don't eat carbs.

I've gone through this process a few times:

1) Join a project and fume about how they didn't write nice, clean, "testable" code.

2) Build some sort of integration testing framework that also mocks out REST API calls relatively cheaply (e.g. using recording/playback against a live system).

3) Realize that I can now refactor the code such that it is nice, clean and more easily "unit testable".

4) Realize that with an effective and easy to use, fast integration testing framework the lack of dependency inversion doesn't bother me nearly as much as it used to.

5) Wonder if dependency inversion is actually more of a hack to deal with the sheer utter crappiness of unit tests... and whether making vast architectural changes to code in order to accommodate the sheer ineffectiveness of the current state of test tooling is really the height of wisdom after all.

In a number of these projects there were noises about rewriting the whole damn thing in a different language (usually because management wanted to consolidate hiring around fewer languages), and it occurred to me that it would actually be kind of great to write tests where the entire implementation including the language itself could be swapped out without really changing the tests.

Did doctory stuff and floated around medical for a while before switching to psyc. Currently forensic psych for infamous US prison. Found that rather than patient hop in regular psyc practice, or drug up people in asylums, with trial cases spanning years you can really deep dive a person and do good work.
IRAs are self-directed
Sure, but I wasn't suggesting that Webkit is an original work of art - the discussion wasn't about the history of rendering engines and browsers - it was about which companies _today_ are willing to maintain their own rendering engines and browsers instead of just skinning Chromium.

- Apple has Safari which uses Webkit (which was forked from KHTML as you noted)

- Mozilla has Firefox which uses Gecko (originally from Netscape)

- Google has Chrome which uses Blink (forked from Webkit)

- Microsoft has Edge which uses Blink

- Opera has Opera which uses Blink

... The only two major players currently maintaining a non-Chromium and Blink based browser are Firefox (mentioned by the OP) and Apple (mentioned by myself).

I was simply trying to provide some additional context about the history of Chrome, perhaps I should've also included the context about the history of Safari.

But anyways... blah blah blah
Model-Based Testing in React with State Machines
With your numbers, that puts the total running cost at 71k, or a saving of $245k over 3 years, which is pretty much the salary of one person to look after that system for the lifetime. I'm not arguing that AWS is good value, im arguing that the upfront cost of purchasing the hardware isn't comparable to reserving EC2 instances up front.
> If members of my community are being killed with abandon across the country by the police

Frankly, I don't even think that this is true. I think the US police is just hyper-violent, mostly for cultural reasons (both on the side of the police and on the side of the criminals). The 2.3 million inmates in US prisons are the demonstration of a deeply flawed culture in that respect. And the fact that blacks are disproportionately engaging in criminal behaviour (for whatever reason) makes them more vulnerable to police violence. But just framing this as a racism issue is misguided. There, I said it.
What're you experiencing is the "no miracle occurs" effect. There is no "one weird trick" to weight loss, only the very boring, obvious, and difficult exercise of restraining ones caloric intake and/or increasing one's output.
I agree, but one word of caution...

You cannot properly derive the truth with two opposite biases. We need reputable journalism.
As a former Google engineer and someone who still holds some quantity of Google stock, I hope you publish a post-mortem about this. Even if it's something embarrassing like "someone added a picture to Wikipedia and our algorithm couldn't disambiguate it" or worse, "an internal employee went rogue and we're strengthening our procedures".

Because frankly this bug is catastrophic for Google's credibility in the UK. Nobody will believe this is some random bug or coincidence, it quite transparently is not. Even if the problem isn't directly caused by Google employees but just the engine being confused by the turmoil out on the net, that's not the simplest possible explanation and thus in the absence of other information, it's not what people will conclude.

Since Google became more publicly left-wing and committed to social justice type causes, it has to work harder to convince people it's unbiased. YouTube has been deleting videos of anyone who criticised the COVID lockdowns, including actual epidemiologists and Nobel Prize winners, and that's been widely publicised. So going into this event you're already being perceived as a part of the mainstream establishment censorship machine. And now this - it looks exactly like the people blacking out their instagram photos in solidarity with BLM.

Politicians in the UK are currently receiving enormous quantities of anger from the population about the desecration of war memorials and war heros. It's an issue that's triggered huge public feeling. Google doesn't want to get sucked into that. A rigorous technical post mortem could show people what really happened and avert a political disaster.
It may be cruel compared to some ways, but not in comparison to torture for hours.

I have read other accounts of "Halal" slaughter in industrial settings. Basically a big machine built to cut the throat, but in practice it's much much worse than either traditional practices with a knife and "normal" industrial practices.
Modern optical systems require strong FEC and it’s not uncommon for systems to have pre-FEC BER 1e-3. The FEC gain is high enough to guarantee 1e-12 to 1e-15 post-FEC. Due to FEC it’s not necessary or desirable to have pre-FEC BERs of 1e-12.
In python 2, you could use the gc module to get a list of every reference to a certain object. Using this, you could replace all references to that object with references to some other object. For references occurring in immutable things like tuples, you would need to replace the immutable thing recursively.

I assume this still works in python 3, but I have not tried it. https://docs.python.org/3/library/gc.html#gc.get_referrers

While the docs say that this shouldn't be used for any purpose other than debugging, it never caused any trouble IME. Far more trouble was caused by classes from python's stdlib just blatantly not following the pickle protocol, not calling __init__, calling __init__ more than once, etc. I assume this is why people advised me to use composition rather than inheritance when making classes that were a list with extra behavior, a dict with extra behavior, and so on.

Edit: Well, the above primitive is not enough on its own, but if one gets the old module and the new module and explores outwardly from those to find the subset of the object graph that differs, then one can replace all references to the old things with references to the new things. This is still not enough in general, because you'll have e.g. a bunch of objects that never had a certain member set during __init__ because __init__ was different when they were created. You'll probably meet an additional can of worms if you want to use __slots__ and add or remove class members.

Thank you for writing up about the company behind SQLite. I never knew!

I knew SQLite is well-respected by many, considered one of the best examples of software engineering. I just assumed that it was created by an individual or small team of brilliant minds - and developed/maintained by a user community - as such well-designed software often is.

The company sounds great. Their approach to business is refreshing, and reminds of a few other exemplary companies with principles, daring to tread their own path to success.

As an addendum: Hipp, Wyrick & Company, Inc. (Hwaci) is based in North Carolina, USA.

I’m an investor on the other side who is just minding my own business buying market indices and then all of the sudden, less-than-ethical actors show up and bid up the price. Now I am being effectively taxed by buying portions of a soon-to-be-worthless company. Who/what are we going to optimize this situation for?

In this case the NYSE jumped on delisting hertz stock to prevent this kind of stuff from happening. But courts and government have to step in constantly, and a tooooon of law created, because we live in an incredibly complex system and it’s almost never clear cut how to optimize for greatest freedom/happiness.
Pointing out the dogwhistle works for me and doesn't become guilt by association.

It's also worth noting that some folks bothered by social justice movements are bothered by the qualities they share with fascist ones: thought crime, lack of due process, blacklisting, doublespeak, etc.

It's possible actual allies againt oppression seem "evil adjacent" right now, but only because they aren't comfortable with fighting fire with fire, so to speak.
I think you may have a bias against journalists =p.

It’s true that they may not be experts in everything that they report on, even if it’s their niche. Eg I think Kara Swisher does a reasonably good job of representing technology related things but there’s things she says that are not really true.

However the one thing journalists do cover well and have good expertise in is current event and politics. They are closest to the sources. And thus they become pretty good at identifying BS in those narrow fields at the very least. Given that, I certainly value their “take” on what the current events portray.
Does anyone remember AOL keywords? I worry that this might be laying the ground to do something like that. Maybe it's not planned or maybe it's only an option they want on the table but obviously they have the incentive to do some kind of "Google keywords" and this would certainly help with that.
Guns are another way of racializing - if one takes the current definition of racism: Deciding what dies. Reading gun ownership as a relationship of power makes for more meaningful discussion.
