I never asked for your agreement.

If you want to explore that further, here's an exercise for you. Name one Asian country over 50 million people that doesn't revere their elders.

Back to aviation ...

The West adopted CRM decades ago, which really helped with interpersonal issues in the cockpit. The concept of pilot flying (controls) and pilot non-flying (FMS and radio) are used, and takeoffs and landings are alternated.

Other countries have been slower to embrace CRM, and military and traditional cultural hierarchy issues made that more so. So there are still issues where the captain tells the co-pilot to just sit there, and the co-pilot is afraid to tell the captain of deviations, resulting in accidents.

I give Lionair credit for the excellent CRM during their first 737 MAX incident handling, where a 3rd pilot was able to work with the active crew to save the airplane. (The second incident caused an accident.)
In addition to reducing freedom, the walled garden reduces privacy. You cannot install an app on your phone, not even (especially!) one you develop yourself, without telling Apple. The privacy marketing that Apple does for iOS is the biggest scam in consumer tech.

They were referring to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nasal_cycle I assume.
I think that's a reference to the nasal cycle[1]. I notice it pretty commonly when sleeping, but during waking hours, esp. if I am exercising, both nostrils seem to be unblocked.

If only nobody would write comments on HN we wouldn’t have this problem!
Maybe not in today's form, but a world without copyright would be a different world, perhaps one in which people would work for free software because it's what they believe in. It would represent a fundamental shift in how the public viewed knowledge, sharing, and openness.
Not quite as ironic as a President complaining about his right to free speech in a private forum (not a violation of the 1st amendment) even as he is threatening threatening to use the military to suppress peaceful protests (an actual violation of the 1st amendment).
When highly educated people allow themselves to be pinged into outrage, controversy and violence time and time again, yes, the best option is to remain quiet. Taking a different path could expose someone to the most severe personal and business consequences.

It saddens me to say this because it means we got to a place I never thought possible.
- I used to setup zsh Git aliases based on zprezto but with some of my own tacked onto it. But you can't install zprezto on Windows Git (which uses bash, not zsh). And I switched to fish on Linux, so I lost my aliases there too.

- Different programming languages have different files to ignore. I hop between many languages.

- It might be a bit weird for multiple repos to have the same root commits. Not sure.
By The Economist, so it means nothing.
Again though that's an example of being affected by politics, not participating in it.

Sales at the lemonade stand are affected by weather, but that doesn't mean that the owner should immediately start building a climate-changing machine.
I've seen this too, but never figured out why it's doing this. If the underlying bug is some sort of timing related thing, then it might be related?
If the study is true, and Dr. HN has diagnosed you correctly, you have a nasal version of amblyopia accompanied by attenuated stereonasal perception.

The comparison is not the same at all, No merchant gateway is blocking cash transactions just forbid different pricing.

This is miles away from what Apple can do. A payment g/w can only at best stop payment processing as it happened wikileaks or more recently with SciHub.

Apple can kick you off the market effectively by blocking access to app store . Either the app store should be treated like a utility given its monopolistic nature or not be allowed to push their second service (payment g/w, lots of competition) because they have control over first one App store (no competition), in another era this would be classic anti-trust .
Out of the pot into the fire.

24 years ago a group of Stanford students started Architext. They took a few million from Kleiner Perkins, called themselves Excite, and started a search engine and internet provider. They were a good, ethical, well ran technology company. Over the years bits and pieces were chopped up and merged and acquired and spun off based on what generated shareholder value. Parts of that old soul live in on now in the current Comcast.

The same thing will happen to Cloudflare. Matthew Prince will move on, or retire, or get hit by a bus. The board will be taken over by an activist investor. It will get merged with ExxonTacoBell, which also now owns the 2nd largest ad network. They will figure out the data gold mine the company built under total ethical pretenses, and the stock price will triple. There isn't a damn thing a single current Cloudflare employee can do to stop it except stop participating in the centralization of the internet behind a single MitM proxy.

I once tried to watch a video sped up in Safari, and the sound was awful. An acquaintance tried to report the bug to Apple years ago, and it went into a black hole. Compare to the public bug trackers for Firefox and Chromium, and it's easy to understand why Safari remains nearly useless.
Installing CUDA on Rhel7 and Ubuntu
I see photography gear and companies as more diverse than when I first started getting into the hobby 10 years ago. Maybe I just didn't see other companies, but when I got into it, only Nikon and Canon were doing prosumer DSLRs. Now that technology has moved on and DSLRs aren't the One True Camera, I would say that Sony, Pentax, Canon, Fuji, Olympus and Nikon are all squarely in the prosumer market with a good range from low to high end. I sold all my Canon bodies and L glass to switch to the Sony mirrorless ecosystem, and haven't looked back once.
Better still is to put it in ~/.config/git/ignore and leave your core.excludesFile unset, as that's the default path and will therefore live right next to your config file.

I have an Acorn Archimedes in my basement. Even though I don't use it anymore, I won't throw it out. I did a lot of things on it back then. It was just miles ahead of anything Microsoft did at that time. Good times.
It's case insensitive and there are short aliases for commands. I live in Linux, but used it way back when. It's an object oriented shell that is kind of awesome and intuitive. Bash is great and you can get shit done, but i don't think it's as user friendly as powershell.
what makes you think the ones complaining have any loyalty to Apple?
This is still possible in Firefox 77 if I am understanding correctly.

The magic entries in about:config are

keyword.enabled - Turning this off will make firefox never search for something you type in the address bar.

browser.fixup.alternate.enabled - Turning this off will make firefox never try to "fix" the url you type in by putting .com on the end of it.

The structure of a loop around a big switch statement (based on value at PC) to blocks of code that manipulate the register variables (A, X, Y, PC, etc) and RAM looks exactly like an emulator core.

The code also appears to include the Commodore BASIC ROM. (See initialization of llvm_cbe_ROM in cbmbasic.c).

So, it looks like an emulator that was written in some other language then converted to C using the LLVM C backend.
> I mean, that's because the language of physics is mathematics.

But it is not a study of it! Mathematics is a tool, not the thing being studied.

This is lost on some people.

There are properties of the real world that are studied, and there are properties of the mathematical models that are used.

They are not interchangeable.

Similarly, saying that the "this specific mathematics is all there is, just understand that" when a simple verbal statement can be made that is not covered by the mathematical model doesn't mean that the statement is somehow invalid, it means the model is incomplete or narrow in scope.

There is this downright perverse notion in QM that the models are what reality is. If the model can't answer something, then the question is meaningless, etc...

Meanwhile the model has assumptions and simplifications such as linearisation, no GR or even no SR, and so forth.

My point is simply this: The mathematics of QM is not equipped to answer fundamental questions like "what is a particle" or "what is a photon".

> whether or not you want to invoke X depends on the calculation you're doing.

I'm not debating that the simplified models aren't useful, widely applicable, numerically useful, make predictions, etc... I'm simply stating that physical reality behaves in single, definite way.
I’m not a hardware person, really, but—even with EFI—my understanding is that x86 motherboards all implement standards that specify how the motherboard’s features can be accessed from software in a way that is fairly uncommon in ARM/MIPS/etc.
Looked up Ising’s story on Wikipedia. It doesn’t seem funny to me that he was unaware of the progress in the literature after being forced out of his job, then his country, then finally doing forced labor for the Wehrmacht.

It's a pretty big distinction don't you think. FWIW I also use FireFox...
I don't think people are asking for a FB boycott over "dishonesty", despite the way it is being framed. You literally have organisations like Sleeping Giants whose mission is to convince sponsors to dump sites that host conservative content. The current Facebook boycott is Stop Hate For Profit and is focused around hate speech (using the definition of hate speech as defined by the left).

I lean quite heavily left, I'm Australian and my political compass aligns me the most with our Greens party. I follow news sources from both the left and the right and it seems very obvious that the left is asking for some double standards. Twitter is celebrated online for being woke yet no one sees anything wrong with them for allowing people to commit assault and share it on their platform [1]. I actually find the current US political climate quite worrying, one side is being completely silenced in the mainstream media. I think Democracy needs to have multiple voices.

I hope people turn out and vote in the coming US elections because I suspect the Trump voters are going to come in huge numbers. The conditions of one side being silenced are very similar to 2016. ALL the polls showed a landslide for Hillary because people were too scared to admit they were going to vote Trump.

Games are actually pretty well adapted to open source (well, unless anti-cheating solutions are required, but most games don't need that). Releasing the game's code as FLOSS doesn't prevent the art assets from being sold in order to be able to play the game and there are plenty of examples that followed this model, either at release or some time after.
Genuine honest answer: because even without being good Apple offers far and away the best product in their markets.
Wow. Here we are debating encryption with flawed logic in the US Congress, while space is becoming a platform for unbreakable encrypted communication. Can’t eavesdrop on a quantum uplink. Interesting dichotomy.

Cubesats are within reach of almost any country. We a decade away from every country in the world being able to have access to unbreakable comms.
I think a lot depends on how well they can keep up with the sensor technology. Sony seems to have the market cornered on that front.
For others wanting a very "computer science friendly" introduction to the Ising model, Rice piles and other critical and complex systems (in the physics sense), I would recommend "Complexity and Criticality" by Christensen and Moloney.

Cool, that's all I need to know.
“Applications” doesn’t seem to be particularly new to me: e.g., Rapid Application Development (RAD) tools like Delphi and Visual Basic were fairly popular in the 90s. And, the jargon file attests to the use of the term to signify programs for non-developers going as far back as 90: http://www.catb.org/jargon/oldversions/jarg211.txt

Not sure why you think an ad wouldn’t work here. Sometimes customers are willing to switch to a competing product. If you can offer something better or cheaper they might want it. I’ve worked at a company where we at times bought Google ads for both our own product name and competitor’s names and made money.
My team shipped the next generation (after ANSI.SYS) of VT support with the first release of Windows 10 back in 2015. We keep adding things to it, trying to make sure we stay compatible with Xterm. It really is a different landscape now :)

The console subsystem is open-source at https://github.com/microsoft/terminal. Feel free to file bugs, complain, or what have you. That’s what we’re here for!

To quote GP, “better late than never, I hope”.
Zram helps. It compresses RAM and makes it available as a swap device, at the expense of some extra compute time.
This worked out so well in 2007 - 2008 that we just had to try it again, huh?

Why is this administration an such incredible engine for useless ideas?
Trying to reproduce this Apple bug reminded me of another annoyance in the UI. I went to enable Safari Suggestions on my iPad, but it wouldn’t let me. The button remained greyed out. It turns out that I need enable Show Siri Suggestions in App before I can enable Safari Suggestions. Buy why? They seem unrelated. If you stick to the defaults in the Settings menu, everything is fine, but if you change them you get exposed to inscrutable dependencies among the settings. I imagine there is an explosion of complexity that isn’t easily tested.
Wonder if it ever happens the other way around?

Does the office team ever turn into second class citizens?
It adds 0 to the conversation. It is very weird, almost borderline autistic behaviour...

90% of links, have some kind of: "doesn't work on my mobile... format sucks, i don't like the colors, etc... etc.." comment.

It is pure infantile/juvenile bikesheding and distracting from the point of the conversation/link that has nothing to do with formatting.
Then let me add that this is a particularly bad case.

I know there's a user called foone that has gotten posted to HN enough times that they explained why they use twitter to make posts instead of writing a blog (they have adhd, and they find it easier to write on twitter). Which is reasonable since there's an empathical justification. And I've read other twitter threads in the past, which were fine.

Usually, people just write out a paragraph but broken over multiple tweets. This is the first time that I've seen someone try and link other videos/posts/images which is somehow so much worse.
I bought bitcoin first time when it was below $10. Happy to be stupid and have those thousand percent gains.
I feel like this article would have really benefited from that template format you see tossed around of:

- Tell me what you're going to tell me

- Tell me the thing

- Tell me what you told me

I didn't have the patience to read the article the full way through and couldn't really get a grasp of what it was trying to get at. I think something about elder care?
so I literally teach statistics to undergraduates...a couple thoughts:

1) agree with others comments that stating with 'very basic' ain't going to work

2) logistic regression actually isn't a common topic in an undergraduate statistics course. I cover it on the second to last day as an 'here is where you can extend it'

3) this isn't a very effective explanation.

4) a big background factor is the misconceptions about statistics that are ingrained in human beings. Learning statistical tests is hard, especially for many engineers and similar STEM types because it is typically the first (and sometimes only) class that deals with concepts of error and variance. Everything else presents an absolute theoretical model. On average, it breaks their brain...

Many have made this observation, but I wish there was a way to blacklist sites from my search results.

I literally never want to see results from Quora, ExpertsExchange and a bunch of other grotty spam dens with low quality user generated content.

I don't get why Google is not doing this. If I could block these sites, I'd get much more value out of Google, and it would be sticky value - because over the years I would have added hundreds of sites to that list, and I wouldn't want to transfer that over to some other search engine.

Some nice extras would include:

- blocking sites for e.g. 12 months only

- sharing black lists

- being able to search without the blacklist applying
What's going on in this phishing page hosted on facebook.com?
I thought this was an interesting case of the importance of making user-generated content stand out.

I was sent a phishing email and the shorter URL given was on facebook.com and it 301 redirected to the URL shown in the image: https://i.imgur.com/GQQW3TB.jpg

The bad grammar and the external link in the body which doesn't match the anchor text are clear signs of phishing, however this is hosted on facebook.com with no obvious decoration to indicate this is user generated content.

They've made the page image a blue shield, and the page name 'Details of Violation 2' which ends up making it all look very official while using FB's standard content layout. I'm somewhat impressed at their ingenuity, but clearly it's already been tried before or they wouldn't need the '2'. The body text seems to be setup in the 'Story' section under 'About.'

I think FB could probably do a bit better here though to make it clear that it's UGC. I reported it to FB and also Salesforce which was used to send the email.

That approach works for one person or like minded dev teams perhaps.

it fails in many teams, they do not care or a junior dev does not know. Many folks don't setup proper dotenv especially designers. Unless added to the project .gitignore file it is going to be added to the project sooner or later.
For the life of me I cannot understand why would anyone waste their money on such keys. Usually those are volume licenses being sold separately, which is not legal and does not provide you with a valid license. If one is intent on breaking the law anyway, one can save those two bucks and use of the many safe activation methods which do not require installing anything on your machine.
There is absolutely nothing surprising here. I truly hope that the government is investigating unidentified flying stuff. That’s quite important.
Which entropy does “maximum entropy” refer to here? The entropies of the spins? Wouldn’t this entropy depend on temperature and coupling strength since there is a phase transition?
Why does it surprise you (and the many dismissive commenters in this thread)? The way I personally get the most value out of it is by asking questions from people who are active and have clear expertise. Some examples are questions about the Swift compiler and standard library from people who worked on it, or from Alan Kay about the history of computing.
I already admitted my assertion is a heuristic - I find it more useful than not. The standards I used my preceding comments were "analogous", "overall result being similar" and "overwhelmingly marketed the war".

So no, I have not been arguing that the two are "effectively equivalent" or "just like", nor that the government (whatever that may be) has an iron grip on the press - just that the press successfully propagandizes the people with the desires of the ruling power structure. Stating it a different way, one cannot rely on mainstream news outlets and consider themselves informed.

FWIW there is a more direct mechanism of action put forth by Moldbug, but I figure you'll be even less receptive to something of the opposite political flavor.

(Although at this point in our present catastrophe I admit I'm missing the days of competent leadership, even if it was somewhat exploitative of the plebs)
