I don't disagree at all. If you automated all the controls you'd still have some form of plane manager.

Perhaps a far more meaningful automation push could be done by creating an entirely new ATC scheme with automation in the air and on the ground, designed not defuse the class of mistakes that are typical for humans but to work around weaknesses of automation while exploiting its strengths (relative to humans). I suspect that the error margins needed for one group have very little overlap with the error margins needed for the other and with the general multilevel architecture of existing ATC it should be possible to designate a subset of airspace to the new system and having then coexist.

I fail to be surprised anymore at the lack of what should be OBVIOUS functionality in some of the largest functionality systems.

Whenever i think I might be stupid for missing what should be obvious functionality I submit a ticket to only realize that the functionality not only doesn't exist but somehow my really basic suggestion is a "unique" or "profound" idea.

Honestly who is hiring these product managers? Who is coming up with these features? Why are what should be no-brainer obvious functionality items missing?

Is there something about product management and design I don't understand? Why is it that you can't get notifications on group calendars or background images on Google docs or lots of other things I'm forgetting now that at the time I was like "wow I can't believe you can't do that"

I didn't get this sense from anything anyone was saying.
Varoufakis only examines two scenarios: (1) Economy remains capitalist and Bitcoin replaces national currencies, or (2) capitalism is replaced with socialism.

Each scenario has such a vanishingly small likelihood that it seems pedantic to debate them.

A more likely scenario is that we retain market economies and national currencies, with more or less corruption, more or less rule of law and more or less authoritarianism. Bitcoin would still exist but it wouldn't replace national currencies.

It seems that during periods of more corruption, less rule of law and more authoritarianism, we'll see more use of state power to debase national currencies for the benefit of the clique currently in power, with financial repression and confiscation for political adversaries and those not in the clique.

During times like this, an asset that is independent of the clique, digital, borderless, and difficult to detect, debase or confiscate might be a more secure way to protect the savings of the little guy and the big guy alike.

SSHFP requires you to DNSSEC-sign your zones, which virtually nobody in the technology industry does, for a variety of reasons, some involving security.

A more straightforward solution that doesn't require you to hitch your wagon to a moribund infrastructure overhaul is to use SSH certificates. SSH certificate infrastructures have other benefits beyond resolving the introduction problem; for instance, they're easier to manage than keys once set up, and, perhaps most importantly, they make it possible to issue short-lifespan keys based on single signon, which is much safer than having everyone register a canonical personal key.
Developing a Next.js app is a really nice experience. I admit when it first came out I didn't pay that much attention to it because I thought how it did routing was weird and I don't think the server was as extensible.

My education is one line on my resume. Because there is no common standard for hiring or qualifying software developers education is mostly, but not completely, irrelevant. I have worked with many excellent developers who never completed college.

Don’t think of software as a regulated profession. Software is a trade skill. When you practice in those terms you will become a better and more desirable job applicant.
The point is that it’s still age discrimination. If someone wants their age to not work against them, they have to be willing to look past the age of others.

Besides age is not an indicator of quality of work, nor are college credentials. I’ve seen much older devs run circles around younger ones, and vice versa.
If you use pyspark and Spark for Parquet, you get:

* Easy type inference, even for nested maps and structs

* lz4 compression support

* SQL and directory partitioning out of the box

If you use pyarrow, you get:
* Write support for nested types, but read support is broken / incomplete (it throws a TODO error)

* no lz4 support and a load of Jira politics blocking it

* You can query using Pandas (not SQL), but that querying can be much slower versus Spark (Spark is naturally parallelized)

pyarrow might need to hit 2.0.0 to be really viable. It’s definitely easier to use than parquet-mr though.

That might be true, but nowhere in the UI does it recommend that. If you want to share a file, nothing suggests you consider sharing a folder instead. And even then, we'd still have to find and disable all of the folders that had been shared with the ex-associate. That would reduce the number of items to un-share, but the fundamental problem of having no easy way to find and handle each item is still there.

And regarding his military service, he lost three years of his prime to World War II, and another two-ish years to Korea. He put up 11 WAR in the years before and after WW II. Had he kept that pace from '43-'45 and put up decent years in '52 & '53 he'd be in the argument for greatest of all time.

His career WAR was about 130. Ruth's was about 168. It's entirely possible he would have reached 168 had he not lost those years.
It is not incorrect. To make everything positive (and use the subtraction as you have) you need to have two different types of 'positivity' Credit and debit. And then you have to remember which things are subtracted and added so it gets back to balancing. That's why it gets so complicated.

Money in your bank account is _negative_. It is a _debit_ in your accounts (this is not my invention this is true). Your bank account statement is from the bank's perspective. The money came from you, so it is a credit from their perspective only. Try to submit your statutory accounts with 'bank credit' and you'll get in trouble! Your software or accountant will definitely flip it to become a debit!

Your transaction to start your account:

Equity: $100 (or $100CR)

Bank account: $-100 (or $100DB)

Loan:

Debt: $100 (or $100CR)

Bank account: -$100 (or $100DB)

Accounts:

Assets > Bank account: $-200 (or $200DB)

Liabilities > Debt: $100 (or $100CR)

Equity: $100 (or $100CR)
We’re only likely to get the diversity, not the convergence. Just gathering and analyzing the data from how thousands of school districts handle this will take many years, and this will be long over by then.
I learned double entry accounting. "Debits decrease and credits increase" is just one way to represent the numbers; I have also seen the other way around (where debits are positive). But more commonly, the presentation is such that debits increase the accounts on the left, and credits increase the accounts on the right. (Nevertheless, the explanation there does work.)

Some time ago (while I was bored in the accounting class), I invented "matrix accounting" (I was trying to invent something else, specifically, using complex numbers in accounting, which I concluded was impossible, but matrix math works). In this matrix accounting, "debits" and "credits" don't really exist and the presentations mentioned above are really just different eigenvectors. The accounting equation has this form:

<BAL|FSV> = 0

(Note that all of the components here are real, and not complex; also note that financial vector space is a kind of projective space.)

edit: clarification
> >accountants don’t like negative numbers.

> That’s the first I hear of that

It might be more accurate to say that Western accounting evolved before the concept of negative numbers became widely accepted in the Western world. Negative numbers were invented (or "discovered", depending on your preferences in the philosophy of mathematics) in China, and from there spread to India, and from India to the Islamic world by the Middle Ages. But when Western mathematicians learnt about them from Arab/Islamic mathematics, there was a lot of philosophical pushback – at first, Westerners didn't think the idea was valid. The idea was rather alien to the Western philosophical tradition originating in Plato and Aristotle. It was only really in the 19th century that Western mathematicians overcame all their philosophical objections and embraced them wholeheartedly. And then it took even longer for the concept to spread from academic mathematics into other disciplines and general education. By then, a lot of the Western tradition of accounting and bookkeeping had already formed without any reliance on the concept of negative numbers. (The concept of "credit" and "debit" serves a somewhat similar function, but is not quite the same concept.)

And accountants do use negative numbers. But, maybe if modern Western accounting had developed in a culture that looked on negative numbers more positively (excuse the pun), they might use them much more than they do?

One AirBNB SQL question prompt is:

"Find the search details made by people who searched for apartments designed for a single-person stay."[0] This could be interpreted to mean some refined version of the following:

select * from airbnb_search_details
WHERE accommodates = 1
AND property_type LIKE 'Apartment';

However, the expected output includes non-apartments, for example Houses. The expected output matches the following query instead:

SELECT * FROM airbnb_search_details
WHERE accommodates = 1
AND beds = 1;

They quite simply don't incentivize teams to fix this shit.

What does explainability mean for superhuman AI?

We already see this in superhuman stock algorithms. You can "debug" them, in the sense that for a given trade, it can tell you what signals provoked it. But they don't make any sense: it saw rainfall in the Amazon tick up, the price of beef in Russia tick down, and the UK call a snap election, so it bought more GE stock.

You could... theoretically... write a story that connected those dots, but it will either be facile or nonsensical. That's because the model of the market the algo has is bigger and more complete than anything a human can have. It's drawing a straight line through some upper-dimensional manifold that you can't comprehend.

It can't explain what it's doing to you anymore than you can explain "algorithmic stock trading" to a three year old child. You can say what the outcome was, but you can't explain it in such a way that the kid could replicate the performance.
You should be careful of the tax implications. WFH outside of the state your employment center was based in opens you to possible complications around how your employment is viewed by the IRS.

How to Speed Up Code Review Process with Code Review Time
This is a chapter from an upcoming book Team Lead 101: Manage and Grow Engineering Teams in Small Startups. Check it out here https://gumroad.com/l/team-lead-101 (clickable link in comments)

===========

Good decisions are those that remove the need to make repetitive ones – James Clear, Atomic Habits

In one remote team that I led, there were repetitive problems that were obvious from looking at the agile board. Tasks spent the most time in the “In Review” column. They piled up in a heap in this column while waiting for initial review or or re-review. In our retrospectives, we discussed the reasons behind this problem week after week, but the problem hit the team on an almost constant basis.

My decision was to try holding a specific code review time every day at the same time. We started with 30 minutes just before the daily meeting and then extended it to 45 minutes, which was a good length for the team of 4 developers.

Here’s what the code review time solved for us:

Developers knew that we needed to review code daily and that we couldn’t skip it for the day and catch up later.
Having a specific time for reviews allowed everyone to be prepared for the code review meeting and plan their day accordingly.
We were all in the same meeting room and could discuss all the issues much faster than in async mode when you wait hours for a review, then respond, then wait hours again for an answer.
As a result, we no longer faced the problem when tasks were implemented but not finished during the week. And the “In Review” column never piled up again.

Make a requirement for everyone to be at the code review meeting. If it’s optional, then you lose all the benefits of the practice.
Depends on how hot it is outside. If it's hot enough that your body can't reject enough heat naturally, then you'll die WITHOUT such a device. Also, if it's hot enough outside, your body can actually absorb heat from the environment.

Also, your metabolic rate is only 100 Watts if you're resting. Any kind of exertion would be higher.

If it's hot outside, your body sheds heat by sweat. Non-ideal if you like not being sweaty.
>Over communicate. Explain the why's of everything.

I would like to second this, if your schedule allows it. Attempting to make sense of a large codebase (that likely has much domain-specific and even historical reasoning within) when you are inexperienced and/or new to the domain can be a much better experience if the information flows as freely as possible from the expert to the new person.

You can't build the kinds of housing in LA that you can build in Phoenix. The land is already filled up.

Ignoring the sizable demand for different types of housing is gonna give you an incomplete picture of things. Heck, a lot of the reason it's hard to build denser housing in many parts of LA is exactly that demand for a certain qualitative type of environment instead of density and growth above all else.
It's not a UI thing. It's a general recommendation about workflows because folders are usually easier to manage than files. Have you tried using Google Groups? Add them to a single "external associates" group and then you can just edit group membership in the future instead of managing files.

>> First, the simple optimization for Linux systems: double-click on the commit hash, q, git show, middle-click to paste. That's a simpler copy-paste. I do that surprisingly often, when browsing repositories.

Yes, I also double-click on the commit hash and copy it. But I wish there was an incrementing index starting from the top of git log, such that say the 15th commit down, I could just say `git show 15` and see that diff, instead of having to copy and paste the commit ID ( and use my mouse )
This is interesting to me.

I suspect most HN readers probably live in a world of binary logic where things are either "true" or "false", but I come from data-land, where ternary logic is the norm, and where "zero" is a very different concept than "null".

"Zero" is something that can be compared to other numbers, mathematical operations can be performed on it, etc., but "nothing" is just that... nothing.

I'm sure the ancient Greeks used one term to refer to both concepts, and that's exactly what people are pointing out when they refer to other cultures "inventing" the concept of zero. These cultures correctly realized that these are two distinct concepts, and so they created a new, separate term for zero.
