It would be great to see some actual design docs in a blog post versus a summary article with zero primary references. (A postmortem of some design docs would be incredible!).

One of the hardest things about introducing a design doc process to a team of engineers is providing concrete examples as seeds and ensuring feedback to make the process actually work. It can be really jarring to introduce the design doc philosophy to a larger team if all they've been doing is Scrum every week. Moreover, typically design docs happen at a quarterly rhythm and feedback periods can take weeks-- this slow cycle is a major impediment to consensus and learning.

All this calls for material that speaks to differentiated learning. Extolling "we do this at Google" is a leaf in the wind.
Personal opinion: putting comments in the data is a smaller sin than putting data in comments. More information @ https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3912149
Yes, you might call this the psychoanalytic idea of transference. However, the psychoanalytic understanding of infant psychology, and the infant-mother relationship, is radically different from the one presented here. Furthermore, Freud developed his ideas in this area by a very indirect method, and before any real scientific investigation had been done. In recent decades a great deal of research has now been done, and it has made clear the Freudian view was quite mistaken.
Yes, thanks, but are the comments stripped out when you read the JSON? Or are they still accessible, so they can be written back when a program modifies the JSON slightly?
Very cool, I've had this same idea sitting in the back of my head too, instead of user names there are just ssh keys

Honestly we've seen a ton of cool side projects like this on HN because of quarantine
To me, C# like type annotations, especially generics, look bloated.

ReasonML files don't look like that and are even sound.
What causes one bacteria to flourish in the colon? Is it a lack of other flora? Is it diet related?

Not to be crass, but I also kind of wonder what it smells like. Are there scientists who study the smells of these biological systems? Seems like that would be a high bandwidth way to gain insight into a gut.
Looks like they won't https://twitter.com/benhawkes/status/1286021329246801921?s=1...
If a scientist were writing the article about the paper, yes. But everyone has been quick to point out is definitely not the case.
We have an enormous, almost inexhaustible source of energy just 1 AU away.
We simply haven't developed enough yet. It wouldn't be good game design to encounter other civs at this stage.
If only open source software licenses could have predicted the level of vertical integration control their software would be used in. Apple continually violates the good will of developers and puts forth their own bad will. I'm tempted to make up an 'MIT minus non-free platforms' agreement. If the OS can't be completely emulated and freeley installed without restriction, then you can't use the library.

I'd like to see Apple survive having to recreate half their software from scratch.
No, moment is not a dependency. We're using the native Intl.DateTimeFormat APIs that are built into browsers now. This makes sure we support internationalization properly, but without the giant locale data needing to be downloaded.

And yes, we have a DateRangePicker and TimePicker as well.
Boeing doesn't give Uncle Sam a discount because a LEGO project pays them money. If they do work for the military, they will bill it directly to Uncle Sam.

I doubt the amount of money even matters to them. It's most likely linked to retaining their trademark or something similar.

Finally, the V-22 isn't an attack craft. All experiments into the idea have been outright rejected and the only weapon it carries is a single browning machine gun which is optional (and could easily be mounted to basically anything). This is like protesting the creation of a truck model because technicals exist.

If I can figure out exactly how many beers it takes to get stomach cancer, I should be fine to have exactly one fewer.

I just need to know I am measuring this very precisely.
Can't you create ever larger arrays of reasonably sized lenses? And "array" just means "two or more widely separated by a known distance", so opposite sides of (polar?) orbit should work.
It's not practical to cross-compile an iOS app on Linux (or a macOS app, for that matter), but it's not an App Store policy to forbid you. Apple just hasn't shipped any software or documentation to let you do it.

Is it your view that Apple has an ethical responsibility to ship cross-compilation build tools for Linux? (Is that because it's unethical to ship a closed-source operating system with a closed-source build tool?)
Amen

XML is a mess and a chore to work with (at least in any language that isn't Java I guess, but even then).

Yes, it has some rough edges. Yes it could be better.

But overall it's good. Not too complicated and not too hard. Works fine for most stuff.
That's quite true. However, the article doesn't describe parents as such, it describes the actually style of parenting that took place, whatever were the reasons things went that way rather than another.
My point exactly! If I need to implement your algorithm in Python, why am I condemned to be hopelessly slow? Or worse, condemned to find a "trick" that vectorizes this code while it becomes unreadable?
You'd just download the IPA manually and self-sign it or whatever. Basically just make it unmistakable that this device is not normal and block normal people from being able to use it as normal without realizing it's a development device.

I have used TS before, and VS Code is the best editor. I simply do not have a problem with JS, or dynamic languages for that matter.
The Retain keyword is similar to the effects from Treasury or Mandarin in Dominion, where you put some card(s) back on top of your deck during clean up if you meet the condition. Treasury especially is also a cantrip, so it doesn't use up space in your hand on the next turn.

Innate of course doesn't have a precedent in Dominion, since you don't keep your deck around between games. Ethereal could - there's no technical reason you couldn't print a Dominion card with text like, "During clean up, trash this card if you would discard it from your hand". I don't think there are any such cards, and I suspect they'd be generally worse in Dominion than Ethereal is in StS. Actually, having a deck of cards using in junking attacks with that text separate from ruins and curses might be interesting - curses that trash themselves, so you could hand them out a lot more aggressively without destabilizing the entire game.

Dominion's traveler cards were Donald X's attempt to make cards that change during the game, though of course Slay the Spire can push that idea much further.

Artifacts and States are a little bit like the Watcher's stances, but less deck-defining. You generally don't build a deck around having a particular artifact or state, but you can use them to get a little extra juice.

I agree, limiting your plays each turn (either with mana or dominion's limited actions) does a lot to change the texture of a game. The Ascension family of deckbuilders where you can just slam your whole hand down every turn tend to leave me underwhelmed.

I don't mean to rag on StS for being unoriginal, quite the opposite, it's great.
Personal Information Protection systems can highlight things that are likely to be person's names or credit card numbers.

You could color statements that have been approved by the board (w/ metadata) or parts where it seemed the writer was angry, or something lewd/indecent, or written in Dutch, etc.

You can't put "parts of speech" tags on all words and show it to people because the whole Chomsky/Pinker approach to linguistics is a failure in terms of engineering computer systems that understand text.

A typical English sentence has thousands of valid parses according to that framework; the "most likely parse" could be wrong more than half the time. "Squad Helps Dog Bite Victim" is a good joke, but it's not funny when it happens to you, putting the wrong coloring on a sentence like that makes you look like a dork, makes the reader lose empathy with you.

For a long time (1970s) there have been "magic magic marker" methods such as hidden markov model and conditional random fields. The modern neural methods are even better than the old methods.

If you have a realistic goal and the faith and determination to mark up 20,000 or so sentences you can train a model of that sort to mark up text the way you do that people might accept -- having the training set is more essential than having the latest algorithm
How do you parse a JSON list before you get to the end?
Well, my company is always supportive of family life and has flexible hours. You just have to let them know. There's just one Indian woman I work with that constantly tells everyone she has a kid and because of that can't always work. The thing is, literally everyone has a family of their own... Always insists on sharing pictures of her kid so I have to pretend to be interested even I couldn't care less. All she can talk about is her child and wants another one which I can't imagine her being able to manage. I feel like she uses what's going on with coronavirus to work less. Completely unprofessional in my opinion. In her case they still haven't fired her.
Wait, seriously? Interesting. Can you link me to something that demonstrates that was intended rather than a quirk of the simple format?

I always thought it was chosen since it was a seemingly sensible delimiter at first glance and then you only realize it's less useful well after you see others using your spreadsheet app for storing complex strings.
Whether the app store is "inextricably tied" to Apple's platforms is beside my point. The state could simply force Apple to allow other app stores, or to write into law a maximum profit margin (similar to profit caps on the health insurance industry in Obamacare), or require worker representatives on the board of directors, or so many other things to keep one of the largest firms in the world in check.
Mostly market driven (I expect there are some regulatory concerns too but I don't know any offhand.) What this means is that there are very few holders of TSLA stock who are willing to lend it compared to the number of people who'd like to be short. I'm not sure precisely what that does imply about the people holding it; typical institutional holders do happily lend out stocks, which is why typical short financing costs are low.
But that's the thing -- most successful businesses (as opposed to youthful adventures that paint one as 'innovative' on a resume) are started by older founders who have a depth of experience in their field. As parent of a 3-yr old, babyhood goes fast. You'll be sleeping & able to put in extra hours, if you wish, at some point. You'll also notice that your patience for bullshit has decreased, your patience with actual important shit has increased, and by the time the kids in their teens you might be ready to be a founder who doesn't do the hustle-grind-performative-dance and actually... creates a business.
It seems odd that the universe would be as vast and fascinating as it is but there be no one to appreciate it.

I want humanity to reach another galaxy someday.
The analogy actually makes sense if you’ve worked manufacturing things from blueprints.

If you hand one complex blueprints to three random construction firms, from a distance you’d get the same result, nearly, but up close a lot would’ve changed during the project.

There is a reason why engineers are required to inspect the project at some interval and perform quality checks.
It doesn't seem to be specific to an individual when there are class actions lawsuits and many people reporting to suffer from it.

There exist jobs, like slaughterhouse knockers, which are linked to causing PTSD and increased criminal behavior. It's not far fetched to believe these moderator jobs do too.
In 10 years we will see JSON with the same mix of mockery and regret as we see XML today.
pip3 install semgrep fails on windows 10 with Python 3.7.8 and pip 20.1.1 and the error seems to be an invalid path separator char.

error: can't copy 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXX\Local\Temp\pip-install-cq40rzma\semgrep-files/semgrep-core': doesn't exist or not a regular file

Anyone here know how to fix that?

It’s at least plausible. The traditional definition of herd immunity assumes a homogenous population as the term has mainly been used in a vaccine strategy context. The above paper revises the definition based on a heterogenous model with the conclusion that the dynamics may be quite different in an actual epidemic.
CLI Client for Google Text-to-Speech
I'm not really looking for a new git repository hosting service but this seems cool. I was a bit disappointed that I had to download a cli tool after signing up. It would be cool if you could do all the management non-git operations via ssh and without any additional client software
A computer doesn't follow you around. It also doesn't have a ton of built in sensors (accelerometer, dual cameras, microphones, gps).
This seems like humanity’s last advanced civilization: the easy energy is all tapped out.

Maybe some other life form could have one after enough time has passed, but we can’t bootstrap ourselves a second time.

(Edit: to be clear, I’m agreeing with you.)
Ok, but would you prefer:

[1, 2, 3, 3.14159, "comment: Pi!!", 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]

over:

[1, 2, 3, 3.14159 /* Pi!! */, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8]
How do they determime how heavy thr exoplanets are?

The team also found the two exoplanets are much heavier than the ones in our Solar System, the inner planet having 14 times Jupiter’s mass and the outer one six times.
As the article mentions, you have to be disciplined for this to work. It would require a huge amount of discipline to get into a subject that might be, superficially, uninteresting. You also loose the passion and excitement that a good teacher conveys.

Maybe there are people disciplined enough. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ personally I need an external push.
"Not standing out" isn't very scalable.
Bddisasm: Bitdefender Disassembler Open-Sourced
Did the plumber ever open the drain before entering the house to see if he was suffering from confirmation bias? Or knee jerk racism?
Diesel trains are already electric. Their drive motors are electric with big Diesel generators on top. Their efficiency is due to their hybrid nature.
Peer relations are very important. But from what I recall, that book doesn't really address what the article is about, partly because many of the developments took place after it was written.

And by the way, are you saying that, if you were a man married to a woman and you had children, you wouldn't be bothered if she was insensitive or abusive with them, because it would have no long-term effects on their personalities?
I keep a card on me that says I don't want to be mugged. But seriously, ditch the DNT header. It's a silly idea and was cart before the horse. Make a law with serious teeth if you want a header to be sometimes obeyed.
> Are we just accepting agent provocateurs as how things should be now?

It's not about accepting it, it's been knowingly used for decades in different countries around the world. Why would the US be immune to it?
> they will always point to the necessity of a god, that things had to come from somewhere. But there is never any necessity for god to come from somewhere.

Of course people will and should point to the necessity of an entity that had to be the starting point of a chain of events, this is just common sense, ex nihilo nihil fit.

> But there is never any necessity for god to come from somewhere. Of course, the definition of "god" is different than "things that are not god". The point is the intellectual dishonesty of arguing that their definition of the nature of god necessitates the existence of their defined god.

As explained several times, the reason for that is quite simple, because of the principal of causality and the impossibility of infinite regress, it's the natural logical conclusion.
Are you going to infinitely regurgitate and paraphrase your same misunderstanding of the fundamental arguments? If so tell me, such that I can write an AI which infinitely paraphrases the same answer until you get it.
Germany does a good job of owning their past it seems like.
Should We Cancel Aristotle?
>Reddit's privacy policy now states that "there is no accepted standard for how a website should respond to this signal, and we do not take any action in response to this signal"

This has to be the most common (non)response to the DNT signal. In fact, one of the only uses I have seen for DNT is... Browser fingerprinting.

Websites don't respond to it, and aren't required to. But you're still offering up an additional data-point that differentiates you from other similar configurations which do not have DNT enabled.
I did not say it's easy or hard. I said they can do it because they have the time and money.

In any case, it's an obvious thing to do and there's no obvious explanation of why they didn't, given that they could.
But are they same as the people actively seeking it?
Sounds like you might want GPL?
An Introduction to the Resource Description Framework (1998)
There’s jsonlines but it is not widely supported. Eg PowerBI has to be told to treat it as CSV then convert each row in to JSON rather than a native jsonl type.
Machine Learning and Libraries: A Report on the State of the Field
His theory seems plausible enough, especially given that when the trade became possible and the prices were forced to converge... it was the share price that had the bigger correction.
These niche demographics are typically into it for the wrong reasons though, which includes fantasizing about the material (murder, rape, child pornography, etc.).
To whatever extent these devices are distributed, my guess is that they land predominantly in the hands of consultancies and security product firms, where the bulk of bread-and-butter security research is done. Those firms will all have their legal vet the actual contract (which this page is not).

And, of course, that's the case with Corellium as well; it's not like Hopper or Binja, a tool that random people just buy to kick the tires on. The front page of Corellium's site is a "contact sales" mailto; the term of art we use for that pricing plan is "if you have to ask...".
NIST keep soliciting private input regarding its Post-Quantum Competition
To me your goal should be a better payed role. I assume with your VHCOL that there are better jobs available. I would work on landing something better at big tech (FANG ideally).

Once you're there you can focus on your side projects or building your own SAAS etc.
As a long time iOS user this single aspect has made me look over the fence to the android side the whole time. Not having full access to my own devices is insane. The poor security on android side has kept me away, but they’ve just recently been catching up enough that the scales are almost tilted.
Oversaturation Fear
I have a (hopefully) irrational fear that the tech industry/CS is becoming oversaturated. It seems like everyone and their mom is doing CS now. Though I love CS, this is irrationally pushing me to pursue EE/ECE...

What are the prospects for CS grads in the coming decades?
> The difference, however, is that if and when someone tries to use these photos to build a facial recognition model, "cloaked" images will teach the model an highly distorted version of what makes you look like you. The cloak effect is not easily detectable, and will not cause errors in model training. However, when someone tries to identify you using an unaltered image of you (e.g. a photo taken in public), and tries to identify you, they will fail.

Do different photos of the same person produce unique results where even a comparison between two cloaked will result in a mismatch? The article mentions that only the comparison between unaltered and cloaked images will result in a mismatch. If that is the case, what's stopping someone from using this algorithm to generate a cloaked image from the unaltered one and then using both in order to identify you?
Yeah, but they were reinvented in JSON, with the key difference that you didn't have to pay for them if you didn't need them. JSON unbundled XML.
I remember reading that opinion 10 years ago.

It's funny I have the opposite feeling. In my case I write a formatter/validator in each project for my json that fixes issues like trailing commas and is also where I annotate the data structure, but I can imagine for those who write JSON by hand those two limitations would be a headache.
5G Technology and induction of Coronavirus in skin cells
Up to 14 weeks of family leave for parents. I don't have kids but I'm happy for those around me who need it to not be completely stressed out. The only thing I'm unsure about is if it hurts career progression, but I doubt anyone is progressing much this year anyway.
Right, but in the absence of parents who are capable of guiding them, they won't be able to either. Most adults arent good at being autodidacts either.
I just wish it supported all floats (nans and infinities too).
This is actually kinda amazing. Am I too young? How did I missed this?
Awesome! That's EXACTLY what I'm going for. I kept using github and having this feeling of "this doesn't feel like it was built for me."

Current git hosts don't feel like they were made for programmers which is nuts! Even for the most essential and basic actions (all of what gitern provides at the moment), they feel kludgy. My intent is to carry a programmer-first approach for all needs programmers have around git hosts. I have SO many ideas on how to do this.

If you couldn't tell, I'm very happy to hear you had a positive impression lol. Thank you!
I'd hardly call a few bytes per key and field excessive. Especially compared to something like XML.

The datastructure complexity being limited is also a pretty significant key to its success. More complex datatypes means greater chances for JSON handling libraries to lack compatibility.

The only substantial shortcomings of JSON I see are shortcomings associated with any textual serialization format. Optimizing for human readability in a use case that's 99.99% of the time not read by a human.
I don't think I ever claimed to have solved any problem, just provided context for Bitcoin as a solution to the Cantillon Effect which is objectively a driving force for wealth inequality.
How to go from a beginner to an intermediate programmer
Hey, I know gitern is cli based, but I wanted to compliment you on the design of the gitern.com site. Love the colors, artwork, everything. Very minimalistic and tasteful.
Both of those sets seem to be no longer sold.
Which specification got an update last year? Google's not turning anything up.
