We also know that China considered itself "All under Heaven" and that in Ancient Egypt Pharaohs were thought to maintain the cosmic order.

I understand that hating themselves is a favorite pastime of upper-middle class white Americans, but there is no reason to denigrate all white people for what was a very common attitude among all cultures.
I'm talking about where the momentum is. Sure I can use asciidoctor (through docker,etc)..but what I'm really talking about is the adoption in the wider ecosystem.

Which needs javascript, tooling, support,etc.
Asciidoc as a community has not gone down that path.
And that's where it gets complicated. You'd either need to create it in a way that you could inflict these negative reactions, like pain,thirst,fear,and so on.,as otherwise it would respond with " OK, go on then,not that I care anyway".
The remaining Western wall of the Temple mount today was rebuilt by Herod almost 1000 years later (20 BCE). You can tell by the distinctive stone-dressing - the border around the stone known as Herodian masonry. You can also see this feature on the cave of the patriarchs.
We are so used to viewing the world in binary that we need to find binary systems even when they don't exist. GP is one example of this - Voat is a cesspool of hate, the users mostly lean right. Therefore there has to be a counterpart on the left.

Second example - Even though non-partisan metrics show that the Republican party have become more extreme with time, the need to be "neutral" makes it impossible to recognise that. Our need for binary means that we have to consider both sides as mirror images of each other even if they might not be. This video explains more - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mICxKmCjF-4

This reads for me like:

As an example of this I go to the shooting range every Friday, just for fun, as you can see it on this picture I published on FB, that's why I didn't shoot my neighbour.

He may be right, but that's not an evidence. And we are talking about a company acting like a con man since ages.
Thanks for a great site - I love how shopping for music on Bandcamp feels quite personal. I particularly like that it is all based around the record label - especially in more niche genres, the labels are absolutely fundamental and there’s a good chance that if you like a record, you’ll find loads more interesting stuff on the same label.

For whatever reason, Spotify etc. seem to demote the existence of the label to a tiny font with no label “home page” or anything. You can search by label but it’s pretty hidden and doesn’t work 100%. I wonder if part of their long term plan is to remove labels from the equation...

Anyway, I was wondering if you had any plans for a public facing API to search your catalogue? I’ve got loads of ideas for content discovery tools but the lack of an API makes them impractical. For example, I built this to find your top Spotify artists on Bandcamp, but without an API all it can do is link off to a search so it’s quite a frustrating UX: https://tomduncalf.github.io/supportify/
At a guess, more demand for direct flights served by A350 and 787 and falling demand for hub-and-spoke flights served by A380.
HEIF/HEVC aren't completely open formats though, AFAIR. I'm pretty sure there's some kind of patent royalty involved in some things people might want to do with them.
That alone makes them incompatible with GNU's ideals, such as they are.

LinkedIn's business model is base around surveillance.

DDG's is specifically based around providing services without surveillance.

So if DDG make a mistake I give them the benefit of the doubt because I can see it's in the their interests to fix that.

If LinkedIn make a mistake, based on previous behaviour, I assume that the mistake was getting caught and that another mistake will be announced any time now.

I don't use LinkedIn for this reason.
this assumes that their previous certifications were legit. now it might be the case that previously all certificate were given out properly and come 2012 corruption ramped 0 to 30% in a day, but I find that unlikely.
As a long-time Wikipedian, this track record is actually worrisome.

Semantic Mediawiki (which I attempted to use at one point) is difficult to work with and far too complicated and abstract for the average Wiki editor. (See also Tim Berners-Lee and the failure of Semantic Web.)

WikiData is a seemingly genius concept -- turn all those boxes of data into a queryable database! -- kneecapped by academic but impractical technology choices (RDF/SPARQL). If they had just dumped the data into a relational database queryable by SQL, it would be far more accessible to developers and data scientists.
I built a tool a few years ago to search for your top Spotify artists on Bandcamp. It’s just a simple front end on a Spotify API query, unfortunately there’s no Bandcamp API so all it can do is link to a search for that artist, but it could still provide a useful jumping off point for discovery: https://tomduncalf.github.io/supportify/

It all happens client side, no tracking or data collection or anything - you can view the source to check :)
Hmm when I was visiting Japan they had a serious problem with work exhaustion related suicides. The workload and pressure to perform at higher and higher levels was too much so they ended it. That was just a few years ago.

So, to hear that there is a new level of control for this already judgemental and “honor” based society is just appalling.

Like nudge theory? If the road was a busy one with a ton of regular users, I can imagine something like this would eventually become a likely hazard, tbh.
It's cute but probably just a consequence of a content editor at Barclays who has copy-pasted some old content.

A technical solution could be to add a strict CSP policy but in general the problem is broader and applies to a lot of banks.

The real issue is that banks (and it's not specific to Barclays) are loading JavaScript code from third-parties.

The fact that it is InternetArchive (yet another Internet cache) is not more worrying than GoogleUserContent.com for example.

Otherwise, the "asking money for redemption/forgiveness" part to Barclays is a bit borderline in my opinion.
And the thrust went up too. The original 747 had engines producing about 200-250 kN each, whereas the engines on the 777 produce around 440 kN each.
So are even heavier elements more interesting. I would expect more coloured elements, more liquid elements at room temperature for heavier elements.

Can the number of neutrons in an isotope make a big difference, there are a few elements which have a wide range of isotopic weights, if a property was quite delicate I’d expect such changes to be quite apparent, tricky for millisecond half lives.
For personal projects. For engineering managers, popularity of a language or a framework is a significant consideration from resourcing perspective. It is the driving force behind many migrations off Perl, i.e. inability to hire Perl developers in sufficient quantity to continue supporting Perl-based backends.

Why not? I mean, it shouldn’t be _the_ deciding factor but it certainly should contribute greatly to the decision.

Tools get popular for a reason. You get community support and a test-of-time guarantee that whatever you invest in today is more likely to last compared to the niche choice.
Qt and it's designer is great until you try to deploy to mobile devices. That aside, I find the non-visual components of delphi/lazarus the easiest to use when doing GUI work for the desktop. You drag a data connection, a datasource, give it a table, some filtering, connect it to a grid and the grid handles all the CRUD operations for you. Even at design time! Hard to find that ease in Qt.

PS: I really love Qt. It lets me do things no other framework can easily do. I love building performant, graphically heavy and fast user interfaces. It just wasn't built for mass-producing desktop forms that are connected to a DB.
No, relu is applied after convolution, so x is the result of applying the kernel at a particular location of the input, so it depends on the color as well as on the kernel.
I'd agree with the proposal, but I'm not sure it would work equally fine today. I'm starting to think that the advent of Netflix weakened piracy movements too much, at just the wrong time.

After all, media conglomerates have had 10 years to prepare and perfect their anti-piracy systems. What happens in an arms race if one of the sides stops innovating for a decade?

Nice work. I have one out of curiosity question.

In the example, there is the button called 'Calculate' and then action define in "gui.Calculate" block. But what if the name of the button was 'Calculate it'(with the space between words)? The action header would be gui.'Calculate it'?

Only if you are having a conversation where the demographics of the scammers has relevance.

In the case of discussing LinkedIn, it doesn’t matter where the scammers are from. The adjective is redundant in this context.

In this thread, almost any other adjective would have allowed the main meaning of the sentence to continue uninterrupted (“filthy scammers”, “frustrating scammers”, “purple scammers”, “fearless scammers”). “Scammers” already includes a negative connotation. By adding a redundant adjective to an already pejorative noun, you run the risk of imparting some of that negativity onto the adjective as well. This easily leads to the perception of racism.

I expect you're not alone in your position. Since it sounds like you can't do anything in work, is there anything outside work that can make it better?
Not exactly - at very short ranges, you can use DAC cabling, "Direct Attachment Cable". Those directly connect SFP signals, but afaik they still have circuitry inside its just easier because the cable is known length and characteristics - in exchange the cable is rather thick and unwieldy. Generally it works well inside rack for connecting servers to ToR switches and that's it.

40Gbit DAC is even more annoying because unless the cable is a bit more active, it's essentially 4 10gbit DAC in one sheath.

As a DJ I use Bandcamp a lot. There's so much stuff on there that you just cannot find on other platforms such as Beatport. It also feels great to pay the artist or label directly. Often they let you set your own price for an EP or album (with some low minimum, like 5eu for the whole EP).

Truly an amazing platform.
I agree with this.

I'm currently doing research, and one factor that always makes go nuts was the actual time to go and find an article and then donwloadit. I can say that I have used or rather abused sci-hub so that I can find related papers.

Having something like "github" style + the option to visually view the changes updates, what are the connection, who did what, where is coming fro, something in the way the site conectedpapers does is also very powerfull.

Lastly, the only concern in here it is that if it's ever leving document how ca you asses as whole one document if its good quality at certain given time ?

So my proposal wil follow under "feature request" type where even if the changes are made, having the ability to read the "metadata" or quality check done by lets say AI(plagarims, etc, etc,) + with the feedback from online reviewer = qood quality check.

Not identifying what exactly is the 1.18gb "java" process thats running right now (maybe elasticsearch? why not surface this info in activity monitor?)

I mean I have a million examples, I try to do lots of novel research and development and my machine is paralyzed by all these insane background processes, despite the fact that I have a 16gb, top of the line MBP as of last year. It's an insane joke.

EDIT: it is really interesting you are telling me that animations and UI graphics processing are important when it takes away from actual serious work/processing. Everyday I have to shut down my conputer to get to a clean slate because I have no visibility into the background processes occurring.

I guess that drop shadow is really worth the extra 100kb memory footprint!
Well, as a guesture it would be nice if they could just add some money for the lawsuits against the archive. Aside from being an unwilling CDN, it has quite some other perks.
It's not quite that simple - you're comparing people from different socioeconomic classes, different environments of how they grew up, etc.

African migrants, unless they came as refugees, were usually upper middle or higher class - with college degrees and some degree of wealth in order to get here. They're typically not the average African, socioeconomically speaking.

Most Africans also haven't been weighed down by system racism their whole lives. For example, a Ghanaian friend told me that how never really understood racism until he moved to the US in his 20's as he had never experienced it in Ghana.

They hit that low for me when they did the exact same thing with Windows 10 upgrades. When people's PC eventually shut down to restart mid-work, because they just minimized the upgrade pop-up instead of telling it "later" - which were the only two options to begin with. When this involuntary upgrade bricked some laptop models. When they snuck a popup for either OneDrive or Win10 into an important security update.

The whole point of an operating system is to work and get out of peoples way. Every needless distraction is a design flaw. Microsoft has, time and again, proven that they either don't understand or care about that and as such are not qualified to be OS vendors.
Media consumption is somewhat different here in Scandinavia, but while prices on streaming services are increasing, i can still manage to buy both Netflix and HBO Nordic (~$14 each) for less than the price of the smallest Linear TV package, consisting of 5 free channels, and 4 paid channels ($40).

Add to that, that the linear tv channels spam me with commercials at a frequency and duration so that it feels like the commercials is the content (which is probably not far from the truth from a broadcasters perspective).

I'd say that the "breaking point" is around $20/month. After that it is no longer possible for most people to have 3-5 streaming services, and there will be a battle for customers, and we're going to see an increase in piracy again.

In Denmark (and possibly more European countries) you can get "streaming bundles" with your mobile subscription with a 10%-20% discount. I.e. Telmore (https://www.telmore.dk/) offers a "Telmore Play" bundle, consisting of unlimited/free calls/texts, 60GB data (of which 32 are free for EU roaming), as well as Netflix, HBO Nordic, Viaplay and TV2 Play (last 2 are danish/nordic). This bundle will cost you $52/month.

Upgrade it to $60/month and you also get unlimited data, a music streaming service (Telmore Music) as well as Bookmate which is a "book streaming service" (not really needed as public libraries are free and offer everything as ebooks anyway)

As prices increase, i think we're going to see more and more deals like this. Netflix etc. will be the new "middlemen" in the coming decades and have less and less direct customers.

As to why it ended up being the cell companies distributing it, i can only guess that the danish (nordic?) cell market was/is highly competetive, and for the past 20 years prices have been downward spiraling. That has changed in the last 5 years or so with prices starting to increase, but the amount of goods/services offered increasing as well. It is no longer enough (in Denmark at least) to simply offer more calling time/data, and we've arrived at "unlimited" at <$50/month.
Some of Python linters enforce such style. If you enable pylint or black I think they do that by default.
Ask HN: What books got you curious and inspired about fields other than CS?

- Computers & Education when I read “Mindstorms: Children, Computers, and Powerful Ideas”

Would love to know about the books that got you inspired and curious about other fields :)
Ransomware targeting MongoDB threatens to report victims for GDPR breach
I think that can be solved if a majority of early users use the voting system in the way it was intended. Say there's a cluster of 75% "good" initial users who vote similarly on quality. Any new users that vote similarly to them on quality would also be classified as "good" and be given more weight.

Even if the majority of new users don't use the voting system correctly the system could be weighted more heavily to the group of existing and new users who agree on what quality is, even if it ends up being a minority of users.

When you install software from JetBrains and have the registration key on your clipboard it will autofill it into the key input field.

There are so many programs using this that it all boils down to trust.

Personally I don't trust LinkedIn so I keep away from them. But in this case they still might have a valid reason for this.

The fix: be more transparent about why the app is doing it. And the browser/OS could show a popup every time an app reads the clipboard to make the user aware of this.

The OP posted a verbatim quote, and one that demonstrated the foolishness of the pilots' cockiness.

If the pilots had been westerners, they might have said 'oh god, oh god!' instead - if they had, I doubt you would have made your comment, so you might want to consider if your own biases/prejudices came into play here (I really don't mean that as an attack; I genuinely think it's good to be introspective on these things sometimes, and consider if our own internal biases are at work).

Don't you contradict yourself?

(Nb. I don't know anything about SSC. But I also think some kind of curated discussion is doomed to failure; although it may be interesting to its subscribers, it will never make a dent what is generally read and contributed to. Even if it is moderately successful, those who say "social media discussions are terrible" will continue to say "social media discussions are terrible", since those who want to use Twitter will continue to use Twitter, and that will always be more than those who use Curato. Just for the simple reason that people want to contribute. Probably split agreement/quality moderation is desirable and then crafting individual feeds so that you see quality posts you will probably disagree with more so than low-quality posts that you will probably disagree with. Threaded forums like HN also seem to get better contributions than person-based social media.)
