I'm using that term from now on. :)

One project I worked on had almost a half dozen "lava flows" in the JavaScript alone... I had a hard time convincing folks we could rewrite it using ASTs because all the rewrites scared folks away from any further rewrites!
Maybe I am misunderstanding your needs, but could you not just use a RwLock[0]? For being global you will need to use the lazy_static[1] crate. Admittedly, I have not tried doing this directly though.

Mitochondria have their own genome; the parent is talking about editing that genome which has several fairly unique challenges above normal chromosomal DNA editing.

That being said, there were recently some breakthroughs in this area: https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-020-02094-x

Whether or not I personally fail to see why marriage specifically should be a human right is not relevant to whether if I had any of these "rights" denied.

> its the right of inheriting when your spouse dies

You can designate your own heir.

> its the right to be covered by your spouse's insurance

> its the right to share joint custody of children

> its the right of spousal privilege in court

> its that you can file taxes jointly

> its the rights to benefits as a spouse of a veteran

> and dozens more of trivial and important legal rights most couples take for granted

And I am arguing that these are not things that should come with marriage - people who decide to not get married and people who are not legally allowed to get married (such as people in polyamorous relationships) should have the ability to enjoy the same rights as married people. Regardless though, not all of these are part of the universal definition of marriage (nor are a necessary part of it), the UDHR says that marriage as an abstract concept is a human right (and only for certain people at certain times as the law allows) - it does not designate any specific privilege between married people as a human right.

> If the government would stop meddling in all the other legal affairs ...

There is a difference between the government attempting to catch someone who violated the rights of someone else and the government recognizing (or not) the love between people.

Yeah, so this work was done at Nvidia as part of a larger project that required semantic segmentation. But although MobileNetV3 has state-of-the-art performance on many image tasks like classification, detection, and segmentation - there are no public implementations of MobileNetV3 for semantic segmentation with good accuracy.

Looking through implementations on GitHub, we saw accuracies of 40-50% mIoU, which is frankly unacceptable given that the paper claims 72.6% mIoU. So over the past few months at Nvidia, I worked with some researchers from ADLR (https://nv-adlr.github.io/) to implement MobileNetV3 in PyTorch. After a bunch of hyperparameter tuning, we managed to train it to within 0.3% of the accuracy reported in the paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/1905.02244v5. See the "Metrics" section of the GitHub README for more detailed information.

Also, unlike other code releases, this repository is meant to be _easy to use_, in that it works out of the box (just install with pip), and is extremely fast. My goal in open sourcing these models was to make it easier for others to do the same kind of work.

I'm looking forward to seeing what people do with these models. :)
This only helps you at all against passive adversaries.

An active adversary will just cheerfully block that HTTPS connection because you'll fall back to insecure silently.
I know there exists one because one of my posts has -4 lol
They can do whatever they want. One should be ashamed to be overcompensated in the context of a non-profit, because they're leaching from an organization designed to do good. A competitive dev salary is probably nowhere near being overcompensated, but a multi-million dollar exec salary almost certainly is.
It's pretty demoralizing to see these kinds of stories come out so often at so many different companies.

I agree with the author that companies should start looking harder at retention; so much of the attention/effort right now is to spent on the beginning of the pipeline, but it's not effective if everyone quits in 10 years.
Telsa Announces 5-for-1 Stock Split
I don't think you should read comments on the internet if vitriol gets to you. Users routinely threaten to switch to the competitor's product over trivial issues or conspiracy theories, but I've learned to ignore it because those users aren't going to be able to use any product for long if they're that sensitive.
Presumably it's not the mitochondrial DNA itself that is causing the problem but rather chromosomal DNA (or some combination). If it were only mitochondrial DNA then it would be strongly heritable from the mother's side, which is not what we see.
I fully understand that and that's still clearly still better than going straight to HTTP, which it's already doing.
Ask HN: Cloudflare Was Down Again?
For the past 5-10 minutes Cloudflare sites have been showing errors for me. Same with some of my friends but not others (might be location based?). My website (tiblar.com shameless plug) appears to be working when I check the servers statuses. Anyone else having weird connection errors? Checked Cloudflare status and nothing has been reported
Thanks for sharing, I'll watch it tomorrow.
Hey, I love your go-app library! I wrote a blog post using it here https://maori.geek.nz/a-web-app-using-bazel-golang-wasm-and-... and have used it on multiple small experimental projects. I have plans to use your code, either as inspiration or direct dependence, for many of my future projects! Cheers :)_
This is true, at least for international flights.

Unlike many other countries, the US and Canada don’t check your passport when you exit the country. That’s because the airlines give each government the passenger lists for each flight and it’s linked back to your entry.
That is a great link. The point at the end about making the language embeddable is actually one of the things I love about Rust the most. Rust is aggressively cross platform and I appreciate that a lot. Write a parser in Rust once, run it everywhere.

I’d use Swift a lot more (which has some of the features mentioned in the article) if the resulting code wasn’t limited to Apple OSes (the Linux support is crap). Or perhaps Kotlin if it wasn’t limited to the JVM, etc.

What a durable educational meme. I think it shows the power of singularly concise descriptors when introducing a new subject. We need more of that.
Not an employee but overall I am quite bullish on Airbnb as ironically they will be the definition of a what a post-covid travel company will become. Couple points in their favour:

1. Work from home becomes work from anywhere: The WFH trend is here to stay and will grow. If you have an option why not stay anywhere in world and work vs. close by home? I expect we will see a big % of WFH markets be global travelers. Proving this thesis would be Airbnb can show on S1 the % of guest who book outside their home location and for stays more then 2 weeks (to account that it is not simply vacation time).

2. Stays gravitating to Tier 2 or lower vs. Tier 1: People will not want to fly or be close to other folks so you will see travel go to Tier 2 or lower cities. This helps Airbnb in two ways.. less competition as these cities won't have as much hotels...second allows them to increase their breadth of revenue based across many more cities then being dependant on just Tier 1 which have risk (regulation, disaster, etc.). Show this on S1 by % of travel that is now on Tier 2 and lower markets and how this has grown as a proportion of your overall revenue base.

3. Safety: Simple it's getting close to accepted that the #1 way of covid transmission is via airborne. Based on this you as a traveler should want to minimize as much unnecessary humans interaction as possible thus hotels suck with all the traffic that is there. You may argue that hotels have policy that are more strict on cleaning but this doesn't mean much when the way to catch covid is via airseol.

4. Inventory: With the economy still in shambles they will get more host who will monetize their living assets more and thus provide more inventory.

I could go on and on but thats my thesis.

Exactly what I thought of when they said:

> “They’re the chief executive organelle of the cell.”

Which IMO sounds odd, given that Mitochondria are seldom described as having much "decision making" power.
I cannot recommend doing business with pine64, their customer service is nonexistent. If you cancel your order, or need to get ahold of someone @ sales@pine64.org for any exception, in my experience you may as well shout at the nearest wall.

- Someone out $165 spent on a cancelled pinephone order, no phone and no refund, complete radio silence.

Wow. Can you tell me what you DO believe (affirmatively), so that I can interview against it in the future?
Same here. I'm in NC and several sites are showing Cloudflare 522 errors with the backend hosts. Somehow don't think it's the backends since they're several sites now.

US foreign policy on telecoms, freedom of speech, ect is full on clown car right now.

Special interests are so cram packed we cant even see the windshield of the car we're driving.

Im starting to agree that US should or potentially could have a larger share on the legwork for telecoms, fiber, and community servicing. I'm not sure how long starlink ect will be competitive with the bandwith, total information speeds in the future.
It looks like it, comes back from time-to-time. Also seems location-based.
No, it just means that contractors are treated as businesses rather than as people, because that's what contractor status is for.

If you hire a company to fix your car or build you a shack, they are not your employee, they are your contractor. You are not responsible for their healthcare or minimum wage or sick days. They are a business, they provide healthcare and all that stuff to their own employees who actually do the work. And this is perfectly fine, everyone ends up happy.

The problem is when individuals try to be a business, working as independent contractors. There is no "minimum profit" similar to "minimum wage", and you are essentially your own employer. Government can't force you to pay yourself minimum wage as a business owner because you'll be able to fudge it easily if you wanted to, being both the employer and employee.

What the government can do however is disallow corporations from hiring contractors for roles and in situations where in reality the contractors are businesses only on paper, where they actually are functionally just employees, like in Uber's case.

Would it be great if healthcare was paid by income taxes rather than employer? Yes, but since we don't have it yet, and since there are other issues differentiating employees from contractors / businesses, this seems like a decent approach.

Yep, me too! Please come to Google. This is the only place that I have ever worked that values code quality and testability, rather than just saying it values these and then letting everything fly to meet some arbitrary deadlines. There are downsides to working here as well though. Happy to chat! gkrimer@geeeeeemail.com
Dunning-Kreuger, the long and short of it is many problem appear "simple" and take an afternoon.. right? For something that converts a date from ISO format to American (M-D-Y) sure it might be simple, but anything that listens or talks to the network (DNS? APIs? etc.) I guarantee you didn't think of all the corner cases.

Also all those afternoons add up.

Also the comment "You’ll know exactly how it works and what its shortcomings are."

Hahahahaha. no. If that was true bugs wouldn't be a thing.
I suppose it's like I said: it depends on how you get that energy. Geothermal, nuclear are options, as are coastal wind farms (minimal environmental impact once up). Solar, Yes, I hear you.

Well sure, but I'd rather just not get covid in the first place. Given that I'll be WFH until at least January, that seems like an attainable goal. Front-line/essential workers have a more complicated calculus to ponder.
You need to put Fred on stuff that other developers have some buy in for. If you have zero automation, putting Fred on that is a bad idea. If you have zero tests, don't put Fred on that either.

Because the minute Fred leaves, all that work will rot then be discarded. It's better to have Fred work on something that will be maintained beyond his employment.
this is a spot-on caricature of a lot of comments over the past 5 years, great stuff
I'm surprised that the role of Magnesium isn't discussed as well.

"Mitochondrial Mg2+ homeostasis decides cellular energy metabolism and vulnerability to stress"

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4960558/

Anecdotally, I've been taking Magnesium l-threonate and it's probably the least anxious I've ever been in my entire life (I'm 42).

The only thing comparable was Lexapro, but I always had a love/hate relationship because of the side effects.
For some reason reading that press release made we want to give money to Mozilla, and made me think about how important it is that there be more than one (all the chrome cousins are practically one) browser.

I do so hope Mozilla survives for many more years.
I really like this term!

Because it implies that Fred is not just doing refactoring, optimization and automation work but also writes new code that others use/interact with (hopefully with sufficient documentation).

Also because I'm often this kind of Fred, sometimes because it is expected of me, sometimes because I just have a natural urge to do so. However with the caveat that I also complete features and projects as is the nature of my work.

In the past I was _too_ Fred-like, but with experience comes pragmatism I guess. KISS and YAGNI are the mantras that keep Fredism at bay.

A simple yet effective technique to fight Fredism when inappropriate is to just write things down in plain $Language and keep going with your feature/ticket/task. It also helps in another way: Sometimes the first instinct is not the right one so you avoid premature optimization etc. by sleeping over it, bouncing it off your collaborators/team and so on.
Do you have a source for this? I tried to find the laws on this but don't really see anything that discusses accessing a list of who voted during an election. I feel this this should be inaccessible until after the election.
Too late to edit window, so adding a note here from ZDnet coverage: https://www.zdnet.com/article/mozilla-lays-off-250-employees...

> Furthermore, Mozilla's contract with Google to include Google as the default search provider inside Firefox is set to expire later this year, and the contract has not been renewed. The Google deal has historically accounted for around 90% of all of Mozilla's revenue, and without it experts see a dim future for Mozilla past 2021.

If that's the case, I doubt they have another option.

They explicitly jammed radio free Europe , for example.
Everything is relative, we're printing a lot of money right now, possibly for the right reasons. In general though those valuation probably do make sense in a world where money is plentiful.
I find that I agree and disagree on a few points. I do wish they'd kept their focus on the technical over the marketing. I don't think they really needed the swaths of MBA types in charge of the organization, and wish they'd stayed closer to their technical roots which is what survived from the earlier Netscape through AOL and into Mozilla. I was also an early fan from Phoenix, though I think the Firebird name (also a fan at that time of Firebird SQL) was a misstep.

I think some of the more encompasing efforts haven't all been bad. Rust as a language has been a great thing to come from Moz. Firefox OS could have been interesting as well.

For that matter I'd have been happy to see broader adoption of Mozilla's identity efforts, and don't so much mind them trying to get VPN as a secondary funding source.

I do wish their structure was more geared towards keeping the technical and developer teams as a focus of the organization over the more commercial aspirations.

I will say I did switch to Chrome around 2010 mostly because I really do prefer it's UI/UX ... FF is getting closer to that, despite some really not liking it and I've considered switching back.

I also find it ironic how popular electron has become, when XULRunner was such a great platform well over a decade before. I do think there's opportunity to create the next npm in concert with deno and firefox for supporting a greater module approach. There's still some unanswered bits there. Similarly, still would like a way to do bundled application packages; similar to jar or silverlight that's just a zip file of assets with a manifest and modules.

If often feels like Mozilla is doing their own thing to try and gain market share instead of working with the broader community.

Thanks for posting, I was struggling to find the cause of our downtime.
My current thinking is that it would make sense to implement the standard DataFrame abstraction (with all the generic functionality it offers) with a couple kinds of distributed data frame. One approach is to make a distributed stack of local data frames; another is to make a single data frame where each column is a distributed vector. Not sure which is better. Fortunately, Julia makes it really easy to experiment with these kinds of things. Of course, as soon as you have a system like that you need a scheduler for work at which point you want something like Dask or Dagger (https://github.com/JuliaParallel/Dagger.jl).

Ah, I meant "user terminal" when I said ground station in this context.
It’s a call for discussion, friends. You may want to go into technical / semantic discussion like nexuist and Splizard here are doing, and that’s fine. A lot of the details are still missing to work through, indees. But if we jump to solve that cognitive dissonance too soon, I feel we may miss meatier parts of the discussion.

The whole point of the article to me seems to be to avoid that temptation to be too pragmatic for a while, and allow space for seeing alternate paths to the future. I admit that this can feel handwavey even to myself, but it can still be valuable to start from a high level view. What if the world proposed by the author were possible and true as is? What kinds of applications would you naively want to build? That's what inspires me here. A worrydream.com sort of approach, perhaps? :)
The world as a whole (except maybe like Japan) doesn't seem to have the problem of hoarding money. Low and negative interest rates have forced everyone to deploy capital and maintain comparatively little in risk free short-term sovereign notes.

It's apparent that maybe we should have hoarded a little bit, as individuals and institutions everywhere are reeling from the damage covid has wrought on the world economy.
Hello,

It is not because we offer ONE TIME PAYMENT with 49$ (50% off) and you get unlimited updates. We're planning to add new blocks regularly over time and all new blocks added will be totally free for existing customers.

SquareSpace prices is monthly subscription. The minimum payment is $12 / per month X 12 Months = 144$

To get " Premium Integrations and Blocks " you should pay from $18 - $40 / per month X 12 Months = $216 - $480

I guess their prices is 3x more expensive than Frontendor ;) + We offer unlimited websites and updates.

Thank You
Ha.. my mom is super anxious as was her mom.. and me.. yep!
I am on a small team that factors/refactors heavily. Some thing I have noticed about the practice over the almost three years since I started this particular job:

1. Adding small features is extremely predictable, in terms of delivery time estimates we give to management.
2. Our bug count is very low, and when we solve a bug it is often small, pervasive, and resolved in exactly one piece of code.
3. The more we factor, the better we get at it, and the easier it is to add new factors rather than new globs that need factoring.

I don't see the promise of "agile" work out every time but factored code delivers like this every time for me.
there are other "C++ programmer trying to write C" anti-patterns, such as typedefed structs and one "class" per file, leading to terrible performance without LTO. stuff like https://source.netsurf-browser.org/libdom.git/tree/src/core/... has more signs of excessive C++ love: "vtable", "protected", etc. I don't know that these things are inherently bad, but they certainly don't exist in C.
