We’ve got an app we’re building, currently in alpha, that is tuned for both of these requirements. It is also super easy to get started. Try it out at https://NoteBrook.app early access code ALPHA2020. The version in production right now has real time sync, full text search, and heirarchical tags for organization. Note creation is super streamlined and on mobile you just hit enter 3 times at the end of a note to create it. On desktop, you use ctrl+enter.

Email us at hello at NoteBrook dot com if you want to be on the mailing list. New version launching this weekend with favoriting, deleting, and editing support. Beta out by end of month with apps on every major platform.

We are obsessed in our design with making everything as fast and streamlined as possible. For example, deleting notes is similar to gmail where it instant deletes instead of showing you a modal of “are you sure?”, but gives you an “undo” snack bar at the bottom if you didn’t mean to delete it, and you can search and find the note later with a deleted note filter if you ever do want to undelete it later. There is not a separate “note list” view, you can always see the full text of recent notes and can search filter all from a single page. Our entire side menu is just signup/login/sign out right now, everything else about the app is driven from the main UI!

Please give it a try and let us know what you think we should add next. Right now, we’re planning on adding image and file upload, markdown and code support, and full screen editors after we launch the beta with apps.

Yeah the table has an Icelandic example: "Ha". Though I only lived in Sweden for a year so I can't remember but Norwegian has the word "Hæ" which certainly has the same meaning as the English "huh"

I've seen lots of 'music explained' types of sites, but if someone were to use their mad graphics skills to explain the geometric/arithmetic relationship between various components of music, I'd pay for it. There are sites that show you the mathematical differences in scales and harmonic series - to represent this with visual geometry would be divine.

What do you think the Left is doing that makes Trump seem not so bad?
Best life tip? Have a hobby or two that you love and that can occupy your body and mind for hours or days. Spend time wallowing in them. Be proud of enjoying them and share that enthusiasm with the people you meet. Mostly, these hobbies should not be what you do for work.

Regarding CS as a career: take classes in the humanities: art, history, political science, psychology, philosophy, etc. You’ll find you are better able to understand why you are doing what you are doing if your mindset for approaching problem solving is rooted in both technology and humanity.

> And whats your best tip for life in general?

1) Take copious notes (in whatever format works for you).

2) Confirm managers decisions with a recap email (especially when you disagree with them).

3) Understand that while you may not like politics (I don't) knowing how the game is played allows you to mostly stay out of it.

4) Work time is work time, learn to be productive and then go home and switch off.

5) Work friends are NOT friends.

6) Learn to say 'No' in a way that doesn't ruffle feathers but does result in the no case.

7) If something seems interesting, go for it - all the best experiences in my working life have resulted from stepping outside my comfort zone.
This is what i did years ago when i got my samsung smart TV to use as a monitor. Still havent agreed to the EULA. Unfortunately the firmware it came with is total shit. Sometimes there are straight up errors in whats being displayed, or it wont lock to signals, and the tv has to be restarted. There is of course no way to fix any of this without permanently enabling ads, telemetry, and audio spying as far as i know, assuming they ever fixed the firmware. Ill never buy another samsung product, i dont care how cost effective it appears in the moment. It's hard to put a price on the peace of mind of using devices that aren't actively hostile to me. You also have to be vigilant about other people boneheadedly picking up your remote and consenting to the agreements so they can use the hobbled internal processor to watch netflix with ads. When guests are using the TV there basically has to be a mini PSA about only using the attached computer and how insidious samsung is. Really great word of mouth advertising for them...

Thank you u/bondolo and u/bawolff.

I'm fascinated by governance, transparency, accountability. For instance, I've been casually researching how to measure effectiveness of state legislators, how the misc rules impact the games they play.

Learning how wikipedia does things, for better or worse, is on my todo list. I'm hoping there's works like Peter Hintjens' Social Architecture for wikis. http://hintjens.com/books

You're right.

You could just get a corne and set up only one hand. Would have to play a lot with layers if you want all keys though.
no, because they don't have authority to police civilians. there is no recursion here.

police force -> used to arrest dangerous criminals only

police wardens -> used to review, charge, change police policy, and arrest police officers who violate the law.

social officer -> used for all non-violent community enforcement. fines, ticketing, homelessness, mental health issues, etc. have no power to arrest anyone.

One of my favorite managers required i give him estimates.

I hated it because we both knew the number was bullshit.

On the other hand, having to think about the estimate and give him something, even if at times it was a guess, i still found it beneficial. It meant i focused better, stayed on task, and often delivered on time anyway.

Im not saying everyone needs the accountability rails, but some people excell with this particular helper.

This is the problem with services that censor sometimes. Everything will seem fine and great, and the will gain much popularity and even perhaps become de facto defaults, until one day in an emergency the thing that has always worked suddenly does not.

We just also saw the article about Facebook censoring Messenger on behalf of employers.

You’d have to be crazy if you think Gmail, IG DMs, Docs, Messenger, et c are not subject to the same sort of “but the military asked really nicely” occasional censorship. These platforms are inherently dangerous as a result.

https://sneak.berlin/20200421/normalcy-bias/

Remember that time everyone shut off banking for Wikileaks, years prior to anyone in the organization being charged with any crime?

Centralized censorship services are a direct path to a non-free society. We are already seeing certain topics memory holed off of YouTube, and many otherwise-reasonable people are calling for the same on Facebook despite Zuckerberg’s objections.

Very soon it will be difficult, if not impossible, to publish an entire set of legal things, even in peacetime.

Your point is clear enough, but FYI you're misusing the word "rebuked". ("recoiled"? "reacted"?)
It is not a business, nor is it a charity - it is a racket!!
This also the first thing I checked. For many it does, actually, e.g.: https://99spokes.com/bikes/trek/2021/fx-sport-carbon-4

But I’m in no way a bike specialist -- maybe the weight of a bike is a feature that can be overlooked for gear of this level/price (expensive, I mean). Maybe a {1,2,...},000$ non-electric bike will always weight less than 10 kg (carbon and stuff) ? It depends on the bike purpose, of course.

I’m currently looking for a bike, but more in the 200$ range... ;)

This is the cheapest bike listed: https://99spokes.com/bikes/trek/2021/fx-sport-carbon-4

The modern wheat is a product of a lot of breeding, just like we do with dogs. Because of it it's pretty different from anything you can find in nature.

Wild varieties of wheat doesn't have nearly as much gluten, and the higher concentration results in a lot more children (myself being one of them) reacting to the protein with an immune disorder(celiac disease).

So you can't just say "sugar bad, flour good" as if it was a binary decision. Everything has consequences on different levels.
> Even today it’s regarded with suspicion in a way that most mathematical axioms aren’t.

This is a common misconception. You either use it as an assumption, or you do not, as is the case with the parallel postulate. There need be no controversial sentiments. In the same way complex numbers were briefly "controversial", but as mathematicians we shouldn't bring too much opinion into the matter; we should only follow the argument. In the last paragraph the article seems to admits that the approach is you either assume it or you do not.

not as bad as everyone was predicting...... are you fucking kidding me? and this number is after the major cities impacted literally fucking shut themselves down to help prevent the spread.
So what - I hear this all the time. This particular article represents numerous opportunities to criticize the same issues on the other side of the isle, like how if you criticize Trump you are fired (See Shepherd Smith). The War in Iraq was not a conservative/liberal issue - and even so, is not evidence of this man's infallibility. If you wish to promote your journalists to demigod level, go ahead, I won't. But it seems that the right prefers to do this - because they need pseudo-intellectuals to help them sound smarter.

> This article is nothing like Rush Limbaugh and there's tons of substance and supporting links behind it. Just because he's attacking his own side doesn't mean he's wrong.

No, there isn't. He conflates statistics ("somewhat support != support, so no, a majority did not support Cotton's statement.) Second, he used the Daily Mail as the source for one of his claims, that only uses other right wing sights as the source for his claims. That isn't credible. You're fooling yourself. This man was an investigative journalist? Sure...maybe 10 years ago.

> Do you think the data scientist who tweeted work by a black statistician about violent riots hurting election chances for the Democratic party deserve to be fired? If you do then you won't like this article, because you are part of the problem.

Do you think that the countless number of career diplomats who dared speak up against Trump deserved to be fired? Do I think the inspector generals deserved to be fired? There are endless examples - you tell me, what's more dangerous, the private press having bias like they always did in OPINION sections and private companies protecting their PR, or a president stifling out any insight over government power?

Yea, you tell me what is more of a threat. I'll wait.

You can talk about BS (in the context of software) like queuing theory or you can actually write software. I suggest the Mythical man month.

Sometimes I think humans developed language only to be able to pretend doing something:

Best hunter of the tribe kills a mammoth. But he is not verbally talented. Now an army of bureaucrats appear and tell everyone that they were instrumental in slaying the prey by applying some BS methodology. The tribe is gaslighted, the bureaucrats gain importance, influence and economic wealth.
No, the parent example was sum(A * B)^2.

I don't think you can use * if you want to backprop, for example in layer regularisation. You'd need to use only PyTorch operations such as torch.mul(A, B).pow(2).sum().

The point here isn't that PyTorch can't look similar to Julia in this small example, rather that I can just use regular, concise Julia syntax - unlike in Python + PyTorch where I need to use PyTorch constructs that are outside of Python.

People in large groups typically don't exhibit intelligent coordinated behavior taking advantage of second order effects without training and coordination. Soldiers in battle require training to maintain formation in violent circumstances even though that's in their advantage as a group. It sounds like you may have a blind spot based on a preconceived notion here.
I can see how they would use in some parts: analytics, internal reports, etc.

It is interesting that you can use Mongo and keep the data in a geographical location and still be able to run a global query: https://docs.mongodb.com/manual/tutorial/sharding-segmenting...
I’m a fountain-pen aficionado that was taught to write with fountain pens and cursive writing way back in the eighties and never stopped.

Now I have a sizeable collection, but by far my favourite is Faber Castell’s Tamitio which features a collection of italic nibs (I myself use the most modest 1.1 size).

I’d like to chime in with an appreciation for Noodler’s ink. I first encountered it when I was in New York but I stocked up and then returned home and found (happily enough) that now it’s very conveniently available online.
I get the comparison to nix and all, but docker does a heck of a lot more than reproducible builds and dependency management. It’s also a way to formalize network and other resource access, Perform local dns, automatically control the lifecycle of apps, control logging, etc. the dependencies is just one part.

I appreciate the design goals of the developer as presented here, since simpler programs also tend to perform better and have fewer bugs. The whole dependency management issue is fascinating to read about. I just run everything in docker on Linux and use yum or apt for native bootstrapping of the device (os level firewall, docker, git, Fail2ban, and a couple others). Do people who mostly use containers thru docker or kubernetes find themselves in need of more sophisticated package managers than those built in to the OS?
The problem for me was how to formulate the sentence in a way so that the natural next word would reveal the thing the network had modelled.

edit: Retracted a test where it seemed to know which to select, because further tries revealed it was random.

edit: I did some more tries, and it does seem to be somewhat random, but the way it continues the sentence does seem to indicate that it has some form of operational model. It's just hard to prompt it in a way that it is "forced" to reveal which of the two it's talking about. Also, it seems to me its coherence range is too short in GPT-2. I would love to try this with GPT-3.
The book you refer advocates a concept of 'apetite' rather than estimation: "Instead of asking how much time it will take to do some work, we ask: How much time do we want to spend?"
That was a fascinating read; thank you. Not every day that I learn about a whole new important multiverse!
If you're tired of hearing about the virtues of Smalltalk (like I was at one point) and ask "if it is so good, why isn't it popular?", then watch @deech's talk (Aditya Siram) - "What FP can learn from SmallTalk" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=baxtyeFVn3w

I think it is the most accessible explanation of the marvel of Smalltalk, for those who were not lucky to work with it during the late 80-90s.

Also I think Ruby is the mainstream language that is closest to Smalltalk today, with the idea that everything is an object and late-binding as much as possible.

One thing I can't help point out is that Smalltalk / Alan Kay's vision of interconnected objects forming a recursive computing system is not the only "true" vision of OO out there. From Simula thru C++ and then Java and C# also are object-oriented (or class-oriented for those who care about the distinction), but they are statically typed. It is also OO because OO is a word, not a mathematical definition, and when people talk about OO, there is enough similarity between all these variations that we consider all of them to be in the same camp. Plus with the growing move towards strict static typing even in interpreted languages, which I think is driven by actual industry needs and programmer preferences than external marketing, it is becoming a disservice to think of statically typed OO languages as being somehow inferior to the true ideal of object-oriented programming.

Because it's in the common interest. The social contract doesn't "exist". It's an abstraction that people have agreed upon, in many forms, because it benefits the whole. What things we codify end up as government regulation. What things we don't are moral obligations.
Other prominent indie devs have left the App Store: Panic, Bare Bones, Rogue Amoeba. It didn't change the system, and some of them even came back (with special favors from Apple).

Perhaps leaving is a (temporary) solution for Wil Shipley, but I would agree with the comment https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23505370 "The only way we effect change is by ORGANIZING. Right now, Apple can do whatever they want because they pick us off one by one, and ignore us."

Perception is reality. Your personal brand is insanely important. In a job, you are always assessed and your career progress will be based on how others perceive you (unless you are in a very metric focused career like sales). Anyone can say differently, but whatever other factors people mention, they all drive the final factor which is perception.

I always tell people two things when they start:

1) Impress everybody you meet. First impressions are very sticky. Impress people first, they will hold you to a higher standard, and then you aim to continue to impress. I’ve seen very few cases that people have shed their initial impressions.

2) Over-communicate. Make sure you ask questions, write thorough emails that explain rationale. It’s really important that you aggressively set and meet expectations. A major problem people have is expectation mismatch. Make sure both you and others are in sync and this usually happens via over-communication.
depends on how those people are used.

'hiring more police' well that can be argued as exactly what the activists want. if you define police as individuals who help the community with their issues without violence. making sure homeless people get food/shelter, mental health issues are resolved non violently etc.

I'd be all for hiring more of those 'police'.

As for surveillance, depends on the kind. I'd be all for surveillance used for detecting gunshots throughout a region. less okay for audio/video surveillance on every street corner.
In my experience, most Docker builds are not reproducible, for the generally accepted definition of “produces a build artifact with the same hash”.
To have a monopoly doesn’t mean to have a specific market share, it means to show monopolistic behavior.
I have one that's collecting dust.

I should probably try with sculpted keycaps instead of the DSA I've right now (i.e. all keys with the same profile).
Stuff that gets too complex you can pretty easily abstract into a role and jump into Python.

https://opendev.org/zuul/zuul-jobs/src/branch/master/roles/t... is a nice example of some pretty complex co-install of libraries for testing under tox (and you can unit test bits of it too...).

https://zuul-ci.org/docs/zuul-jobs/ is a collection of roles and playbooks that do a lot of complicated things with nice abstractions such as this. Although they're designed to be called from the Zuul CI system, there's many good examples for anyone wanting to build out their Ansible in a scalable and maintainable way.
It's bad because it's a special operator for this operation because Python is not made for scientific programming. That's exactly why you have np.matmul, np.dot, etc. all over the place.
He's right that the outer keys are hard to reach, but it's not a problem for me - I just put the least used keys there, e.g. insert, layer 3, right super, sysrq, and so on.

hello to all, I have found this amazing university where I can learn whenever I want and whatever I want to study.

I do find it horrible. I can hit one key comfortably and another one is usable. The rest are just superfluous.
Many of these have equivalents on motorcycles, and even if you don't know the terms, you feel the effects, and if you have a bit of knowledge, you'll know that adjusting suspension preload (or, in extremis, raising or lowering the forks in the clamps) affects rake and trail which then affects steering.
