"One reason is obviously that writing something in 30+ different framework that you need to "learn" is quite some work :)"

Ah, this is where you can use the Internet to your advantage. If you ask for help in advance, you generally won't get it, but if you post something broken or dodgy people will come out of the woodwork to correct you. So you don't need to work so hard to be correct. Just post something. Anything.

If that still isn't enough for some particular framework, just post something less than entirely complimentary about it ("I'm not entirely sure this framework is the best thing since sliced bread") and you'll be sure to get support, with a side helping of flamewar impugnment of your motives, intelligence, and ancestry, along with pithy observations about your obvious inability to recognize sliced bread if it was placed directly on your face. If you can ignore the latter you can get a lot of cross-framework comparisons done with surprisingly little effort on your part.
To hunt legally you would do so during the defined hunting seasons. The only thing open right now, in most states, is varmint hunting which isn't very popular. Hunting season for large ungulates, deer/elk/moose, usually starts in late August early Sept and runs through December.

Despite what some media outlets proclaim Pistols and AR's are not generally used for hunting.
Exports are 17 % of China’s GDP. High but not as high as say Germany. It doesn’t seem like a fall in exports would be unmanageable. Not to make a virtue out of a harsh reality but chinas export heavy model wasn’t sustainable anyway.
That graph is actually misleading. Instead take a look at each state individually: https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/data/new-cases-50-states

You will see that no single state except LA looks like that, they all look like the Germany graph.

The graph is simply the result of adding several time-shifted graphs together. Basally some US states had a delay before getting hit hard by the virus.

Everyone is like Europe good US bad hurr hurr hurr. But actually the US is simply lagging behind Europe. States they were hit early and done, states that were not are starting their ramp up now.

If you look closely you can actually see the virus spreading from East to West (and South) - notice the Eastern states had their cases and done, and now the Western and Southern states are starting.
> I really wonder why so many innocuous, on-topic comments about NewPipe are being downvoted in this thread. Are YouTube employees raiding HN or something? /s

At this point pretty much all comments saying that this is bypassing paid features are downvoted into oblivion and grayed out, so what exactly are you talking about?
Nope, not that easy. Look at Scuderia Ferrari F1 team. In 2014 - 2018 the team principal was a business guy (Maurizio Arrivabene), whom was pushed out to make room for a technical guy (Mattia Binotto), whom led the technical work to bring Ferrari challenging the F1 title. And look at what happens now: they went backward from the 2nd best team to shared 5th-6th, burning a budget of $400M for a car that was a lot slower than their own version last year.
How do you prove that it is your account then?
As a for-instance: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29261497/ The article is in French, but the abstract is in English.

If you search for "animals" and "episodic memory"[0] (the type of memory you think of as a 'memory') you'll find a lot of studies claiming no animals other than humans have episodic memory. I'm not certain that's entirely true (and a lot of the studies will have caveats). If you search for "dogs" and "episodic memory" you'll find some disagreement as well; not arguing that dogs have human-like memory, but more that whether an animal has "episodic memory" isn't binary (e.g., https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S096098221... ).

Also interesting is this study on short term memory in animals: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S03766...

Completely agreed! Excess deaths are reaching all time lows in many European countries. Most of the excess deaths - as in Italy - were probably due to antibiotic resistance.

But this is something you can't say, not at least in HN. You have to agree and obey the official truth.

It is mind boggling how otherwise sensible people panicked and refuse the see the truth. I really hope vaccine would come soon, just to calm people down.
Large corporations like Amazon offset tax liability with tax credits from huge R&D expenditures [1], and those can be "moonshots" or highly innovative products that change the world. The famous CEOs quoted in this article take full advantage of this and there is definitely room to get creative with how that money is spent.

A friend of mine working at <large tech megacorp> told me that it is not uncommon for them to assign product/eng teams to build novel, competing solutions to the same problem or product space, sometimes without even knowing about the existence of the other team(s).

Similarly, I've heard <other large tech megacorp> sends the green college new grads out to hack together products and innovate with new ideas as quickly as possible, and once they find product market fit, they hand over the project to the seasoned senior engineers to build it out at global scale.

These anecdotes might just be hearsay BS, but it does make me think: how creative can you get with R&D and who makes those decisions? In what ways do the CEO/CFOs play a constructive role in this process?

Have you heard about Phoenix LiveView? Sounds like what you want.

It's a Rails-like framework written in Elixir (piggyback-ing off 30 years of BEAM), and LiveView changes the game by allowing you to build rich front-end application from your backend.

The way it works is that it serves you static HTML on initial load (yay SEO), and then it establishes a websocket connection to the server (very efficient thanks for BEAM), and every subsequent user interaction sends a event_name which you handle on the backend, and the backend respond with only the changed data (Phoenix can intelligently track your changes so it only sends what has actually changed), and then morphdom on the browser side patches things onto front-end.

You get the full power of interactivity but you barely have to touch any front end at all (and if you really do, it plays super well with AlpineJS, so you still get that escape hatch).

All in all, LiveView is amazing (and the surrounding technology), I just wish more people know about it!
Seems like a neat idea. I've always wanted a tiny LispOS or SmalltalkOS that I could carry around and use on a Pi. I just wish it would also have the modern necessities like web browser...etc.
The big thing is that pirates would most likely not pay for the thing they are pirating if it was not available legally. This isn't by any means universal but take video games for example.

Developers have long since abandoned the concept of providing demos to "try the game" before you buy it. If I am thinking about buying a game but can't be convinced that I'll get my money's worth, I'll pirate the game. If I end up liking the game, I might as well buy it so that I can use online features, receive updates, and not have to worry with the crack causing weird bugs. In these cases, piracy has filled in the roll of demo software and provides a net positive for companies because any converts to paying customers would likely have never purchased the game had they not pirated it.

Alternatively, look at something like the anime fansub scene. Fansubs often have far better quality than anything you'll see coming from legitimate anime streaming services. I pay for anime streaming subscriptions but I can't count the number of times I've refused to watch something on the service due to how bad the subtitles were, torrented an actually good fansub, and then supported the series (not the streaming platform) through alternative means.

You also have the digital preservation aspect. Piracy is the reason most early console games are playable nowadays. Emulators aren't really legal and all of the published ROMs are very much pirated content but if they didn't exist, how many games would be either extraordinarily rare or lost to time by now. Same goes for music. What.cd was an incredible archive of music and it preserved tonnes of tracks from small now defunct bands throughout the start of the millennium. This is all content that would otherwise be lost to time if pirates hadn't preserved them due to their own motivations.

There's more on this out on the web. I read a really cool article about it a while back but I can't find it atm.

>the pattern of multiple “drones” flying a grid type pattern and remaining airborne for several hours at a time in less than optimum flying conditions (high winds and storm-like conditions). The number of drones reported operating at one time range from between 2 and 16 and appear to be approximately 6 feet width and length. Flight time has been 2 to 3 hours continuous.

Trump did not lose the popular vote. There is no contest for the popular vote. Perhaps one party should try moving a bit to campaign according to the actual contest at hand, rather than try to rewrite the rules.

You assume the Democrats would win a popular vote easily. First, Republicans would actually campaign in California for a change. They might even move left a tad on some issues. Democrats might decide it's the time to go batshit insane and go further left, leaving an even wider, disenfranchised center than we have now.

>LibreSSL was made to be API/ABI compatible with openSSL and target a POSIX OS

LibreSSL is neither API compatible with newer OpenSSL versions, nor is it ABI compatible. In fact, they break ABI every six months. Furthermore LibreSSL upstream only targets OpenBSD, with the portable version existing as an afterthought.

The only linux distribution using LibreSSL is Void Linux (Alpine switched to OpenSSL some time ago). Even Void is considering switching to OpenSSL: https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/20935 .

No take the Overcast podcast player for instance. Marco, the author, didn’t want any third party mystery meat SDK in his application and he wanted to control advertising. He created his own ad platform. Ads are based on the category of the podcast you are listening to. Nothing creepy about it and I’ve found quite a few relevant podcasts.

The entire podcast until recently has been supported by no more targeting than guessing about the demographics.
> Have you looked at Definitive CSS? It's up to date ...

Not really, it doesn't talk about custom properties, inline svg, how to style them, etc. All very useful these days, if you want to allow color theming for your web app and not use hacks like custom fonts for icons...

And custom properties are around since 2014 at the very least.

> They're probably being paid for it and their examples and demos are clearly cherry picked.

This is a hefty and ungrounded accusation. You get access to the API by sending an email with a use-case; this has been said independently by multiple people, eg. [1]. Gwern has also commented that you don't have to cherry pick nearly as much as you did for GPT-2; a decent fraction of samples are simply good.

One of the key points of OpenAI API is that they can vet users to prevent abuses like malicious bots and spam.

What's wrong with enabling third party sources? Apps like this are exactly why that option exists.
If you want an increase in mask supply, you have to either allow the pricing mechanism to do its job, or force people to make masks. Given the (very popular) laws against price gauging, it seems like the only viable option is to force some companies to manufacture more masks. Production capacity is available, but at a higher cost than is currently economical.

All that being said, your second point seems correct to me, and I doubt anything will be done (as a result of the political quagmire).
I wish we had decent charter school options where I live.

I bet A LOT of parents have this same wish.
Not sure of the specifics because I directly engage in not putting myself in this situation where I would be required to pay this tax ;)

I believe I've heard that anyone leasing or owning a dwelling anywhere in NYC would pay 3-6% of their yearly income depending on how much they make to NYC. On top of their rent/property tax of course :)

That is why many of us choose to live in Jersey City or Nassau/Suffolk county, where in exchange for a longer commute (no problem thanks to COVID-19 now) you pay less taxes and get a bit more air to breathe and less garbage on the streets.

As for living in Yonkers and paying the Yonkers local tax, well, I am not sure why anyone would live in Yonkers ;)

There is a hypothesis, “nominative determinism”, that posits that people tend to gravitate toward professions that “match” their names. I don’t fully buy it, but it’s an interesting idea that has at least some evidence to support it.

This may not be meant to be inflammatory, but such a strange comment.
A lot of people are now unemployed. Some of them will open small childcare centers, often operating in private homes on an informal cash basis. (I'm not claiming this is a good thing, just that it will inevitably happen.)
My plan if I do cave is to visit my parents (I'm completely isolated or can isolate completely beforehand) and go to an outdoor range they like to practice. I was actually planning on doing that much once COVID numbers fell to see what kind of gun I would want (they have a few), unfortunately numbers are now trending in the opposite direction.

I firmly subscribe to the "you don't draw/aim your gun unless you intent to kill" methodology and I believe I could handle pulling the trigger and the aftermath. It's not a toy and I would never treat it as such. Thank you for your other suggestions, I had considered the last one but the first 2 were things I didn't know existed or I hadn't thought about them.
Agreed, I feel we are just barely scratching the surface. I'm fairly involved in the AI/ML world (research at FAANG) and the amount of hype definitely scares me, but ML/AI isn't going anywhere soon imo.
And yet you get a gun and the person that gun is far and away most likely to kill is you or someone in your family.

Your post has a ton of fallacies. Are you going to constantly carry your gun? You still think it will protect you if someone has the drop on you? The amount of cowboy situations where guns actually will help are pretty small.
Right, but first we have to establish that they actual fear this. Then we have to establish who they are, and what their qualifications are. Then, as non-experts, if enough experts agree with the ones who are making the claim we can choose to worry or not to worry depending on circumstances.

I could have made myself clearer, I am talking about "damaging insider information". Publishing already published information isn't exactly news.

In this case, the alleged accounting fraud mentioned in the FT article was insider information.
No, you didn't. You said you don't assign any value to the piece of paper. Find, but did you actually learn anything in the process? That has value, to you.

Now, perhaps your point is that the formal education didn't matter, that is, you could just as easily have learned the same thing by informal means. That is true, if you had the self-discipline or curiosity to do so. While you may have had that, and I did, many who attend public school do not. The things they learn are still of value to them.
I'm completely against Google usage of personal informations and hate annoying and bad ux on official YouTube app but, to be honest, ads support creators with revenue so when you "avoid ads", you are harming creators too, not only Google.

> So they negotiate contracts for this sort of work with really large, established consulting firms like the Big 4 and include all sorts of requirements and checkpoints and little details that they think are protecting themselves and would drive the average dev shop batty

To be fair to the bureaucrats involved in a specific project, this approach, including specific staging of particular waterfall-style deliverables (with more complex checkpointing and midproject external reporting and oversight required the larger the project and sometimes on other bases, such as particular outside-of-the-agency, e.g. federal, funding streams) is often mandated by statewide contracting rules (a mixture of general and IT-specific mandates), not something that the bureaucrats directly involved in a particular project impose.

And while in many cases ill-advised and counterproductive, each of those rules is typically reactively developed in response to and as a means of mitigating repetition of specific instances of negligent, incompetent, or outright corrupt contract administration that occurred in the past.

You're lucky to have a team. I was doing that with another person in our spare time and got 0 hour/week to spend. I only give ourselves a couple weeks to setup new software and tune everything perfectly then it has to be done for good. Will check maybe once a quarter for capacity adjustment or software upgrade. (I also supervise a logging system ingesting 1 TB/day with no supervision).

I should probably say that my experience with datadog goes back as far as 5 years ago. Already had monitoring working perfectly back then, when prometheus didn't exist let alone the exporter plugins! So prometheus is really late and sub par to me. ^^

Looks like we got a similar amount of data in prometheus as you (1TB for 60 days) but with 40% of the hosts. Maybe you have many small VM? Got physical hosts with quad CPU (per CPU metrics) and network interfaces and stuff (couldn't tune the node exporter to ignore disabled interfaces and some useless devices). Check how many distinct timeseries you have, prometheus_tsdb_head_series.

Datadog had amazing support for custom metrics (but watch out for extra billing and cardinality!). Applications can just send metrics to localhost:1234 where the agent is listening, and they're enriched automatically with host information and environment. Magic.

This reminds me, prometheus is broken with its idea of pulling metrics, when metrics should be pushed instead. Applications and hosts have to push metrics when they come online, it's not the responsibility of the metrics storage to know about every goddamn thing running in the company and try to talk to them (can't cross firewall anyway). Prometheus worked okay enough for the last company that was on premise with fixed hosts (weeks or months to move anything physical), but it's de facto broken for the previous company that was on AWS with instances created intraday.
Oh got it, if it is a W2 job then in addition to the 40% paid by the employee, the employer needs to pay 7.5% to the government in addition to what the employer pays the employee. Most companies are paying people W2 so that is mandatory, but a few are paying them 1099 so it is not required in that case to pay that 7.5%.

And also for big corporations employers will pay health insurance benefits ranging 10k-20k per year per employee. But that isn't exactly as mandatory as the 7.5% tax I mentioned above. But for software engineers and white collar workers, that 10-20k is basically mandatory de facto, not but not de jure.
