Thank you. Croc is fantastic because it solves a problem that no other tool does. Magic Wormhole stumbles at the first hurdle (installability).
Can it? I haven't read on the specifics for a while, but I thought most people had to stay lower than 20g of carbs per day to stay in ketosis?

If you want to fix the world, start at home. If playing Fortnite is worth messing up your biological clock, causing you fatigue, anxiety and maybe even depression, perhaps you need to get your priorities straight first.
I gave up using mail@<nickname>.network because of the significant percentage of sites that refuse the .network TLD.

One large financial services provider even told me that their "policy" was to allow 3, 4, or 5 characters as the last part of the domain. So .ninja is A-OK. I pointed out how ludicrous this was, and they told me it was their "policy" again, and that's why Australian Super doesn't have any of my money.
GP wanted the service, so they would probably confirm it themselves.
I agree. This is just an alternative to isolating proteins. Maybe its better. Maybe its worse. For me it doesnt matter because eating two small rolls of Harzer Käse already gives me 30g of proteins. No need to supplement anything if you eat the right food.
This is just nonsense with an offensive remark on top. The EU and USA regularly sanction people who do none of the things you mentioned, just to punish their respective governments.

Nope. But I do know of at least one implementation where it's not present at all—msvcrt. ssize_t isn't specified in the c standard, it's part of posix. ptrdiff_t is standard.
Pretty interesting.. many class D audio amps drive at frequencies above 100-200khz, so either the odd or even harmonics of that frequency sounds like where you would get the actual audio content showing up in the audible band (not sure if it’s odd or even that would be the right one). I want to try this on some other class D speakers.
I think the closest we have to a "agreed upon style guide" that is written down, is https://github.com/bbatsov/clojure-style-guide
I have something similar when I used contact@<firstname>.<lastname>.name

There were various ways in which that failed.

1. ".name" was pretty new by then, so some frontends did not accept it

2. some frontends objected to the third level of my domain part, accepting third levels only in such cases as the well know. ".co.uk" for example

3. some frontends let me sign up, but something in the backend failed, I can only suspect if it was the ".name" tld or my third level, but I never got any mails after signing up

It depends on how noisy the surroundings are. In an office block with potentially many other iPhones and sources of interference, probably not far at all. Out in a suburban or rural setting probably much further.

I haven't watched "The Witcher" but "The Bard" is a common, affectionate moniker for one of the English language's most quintessential and influential playwrights and poets.

UDP really makes the difference in speed! <3
This is not surprising. We’ve been using AM and FM radios to debug circuits for decades. They can pick up oscillations and instabilities.

But the range is centimetres at best. So much so the antenna gets used as a fairly directional probe.
The first variable is what you want to capture. I am trying to capture large outdoor scenes in suitable detail to be used for robotics simulation. A telephoto would not work. I am preferring very wide lenses or even fish eye.

But some people are capturing individual rocks to be used for video game assets, or surveying historical sites or something else. There are times when a telephoto would be desired, especially if you cannot get close to the target scene.

4k is 8.5 megapixels so it’s relatively low detail compared to my 18 megapixel video from my Panasonic. I personally do not really know the math behind any of this so I am not sure where the trade offs are between high resolution rolling shutter or lower resolution global shutter.

Because I am doing scene capture for robot simulation, I do not need a perfectly accurate model. I would rather have a machine learning algorithm that places simple polygons where real world objects are in the video and gives them a reasonable texture. That is, I want to go from video directly to a low poly textured 3D model. My problem is complicated by the fact that I am developing an off road robot, and photogrammetry of forests is very hard.

This is why I mentioned machine learning. I care a great deal about the semantics of my scene and less about metric accuracy. What kills me is compute time. Finding feature points in every image and matching them all together is extremely compute intensive. I believe shortcuts can be discovered for problems like mine with creative neural networks. That said, I still need to learn more about existing algorithms.

I can only imagine half of the downloads came from people trying to select the “web” option on the popup and missing.

On a serious note, it must really be a good strategy to utterly ruin the web experience, if you want to get more people on your app, because its been the hot new thing for a while. At least with Reddit, third party clients are well-supported, unlike say Twitter. I use Apollo on iOS.
> US nationals get prosecuted by entities that US citizens have not explicitly delegated their sovereign power to all the time.

How so?

If you visit a foreign country, you are making an explicit choice to enter their jurisdiction.

If you are extradited from the US, it means the government (your representatives) explicitly chose to cooperate with another jurisdiction in some manner.

The current case is somewhat confusing to me. The US doesn't participate in the ICC. The matter to be investigated apparently occurred in a country that does participate though. But the suspects were part of an active military operation. Unlike a tourist, it doesn't really seem like armed forces are usually subject to the laws of a jurisdiction they might "visit" during combat (typically quite the opposite in fact).

If someone from outside your jurisdiction threatens your citizens, isn't any capable government supposed to take actions to protect them? To me, the real question here is why the US isn't part of an international effort to prevent war crimes.
Did Go ever make concurrency easy?

Any modern language allows you to create threads (semantically equivalent to goroutines) and pass messages between them. Most of them even have high-level concurrency support such as parallel map, structured concurrency, reactive extensions, type-safe generic collections...

We could say that Golang makes concurrency using thread semantics scale to a large number of threads. When this paradigm is appropriate, then indeed Go is nice. The select statement is nice. But this is not always the right approach.

Yes, it is true that go needs slightly fewer characters to launch a naked thread than in C# or Java. In that sense, it is easier. Anyone who considers that a major selling point is a walking race condition.

As a tongue in cheek analogy, what if we consider my new language G, in which G is an alias for goto. G is going to finally make control flow easy. I've done away with complicated control flow constructs such as for or while - users wouldn't understand them anyway. Users are encouraged to use the G keyword liberally. After all, it's only 1 character. Indeed, by that metric, it's even simpler than go's go keyword. What could go wrong?
So you change your ways I bet, to accommodate the stubborn cargo cultists who cause toil for you. Here's an alternative for you to consider. Say yes, I can absolutely support you, but if you believe that cc is an ada linter, then you can't use the project in 'preferred form' you have to link against the finished .so / .a binaries, and include the ANSI C89 preprocessed header file amalgamation, which will enable you to use whatever compiler flags you want, but you won't get the benefit of all the fancy macro optimizations and such.

I suspect that’s unlikely from my own experiences on this stuff. Perhaps 20-40cm is more likely.
You can still find the older but better web version at old.reddit.com.
But then you should compare a trait with no default method to a switch with no default case. And a switch with no default case would be reported as an error if some cases are not covered.

Also a switch with no default case is still open to extension. But the extensibility happens in a different dimension, as described in the article - the analogue of adding more implementations of an interface is adding more switches, not adding more case clauses. That's why a switch is not a replacement for interfaces.
I considered that, but then I checked and saw that almost all of them are coming from other domains, and often non-webmail domains. Of course, whatever email management software or app they're using on their end could be doing that, too.

I'm surprised this wasn't discovered sooner. For a while, when I was working in Portland radio, there was an AM station that played recent indie releases on it. Needless to say, while it was the butt of countless hipster jokes, there was a sizable crop of people with both AM radios and iPhones on them, frequently operating at the same time.

> ugly

It makes much use of English words rather than symbols. This was intended to maximise readability, even at the expense of writeability. It's not the way most modern languages are designed, sure enough, and I'm not sure it really improves readability, but I'm not especially au fait with Ada so I'm not the best person to comment.

> unintuitive

This strikes me as another way of saying unfamiliar. Forth and Haskell are also extremely unintuitive languages, to people who don't know them, but that's not really much of a criticism.
Neat to learn about thread sanitizer. It sounds similar to another tool from Microsoft Research called Torch (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/project/torch/) which automatically instruments binaries to detect data races. Coyote is similar in some ways but different in others. Coyote serializes the execution of the entire program (running one task at a time), exploring one set of interleavings and then rewinding, and then exploring another set of interleavings, hoping to hit hard-to-find safety and liveness bugs. In addition to finding concurrency bugs in one isolated process, we use it to find bugs in our distributed system by effectively running our entire distributed system in one process and having Coyote explore the various states our system can be in. It sounded mind-boggingly cool when I first came across this way of testing distributed systems through Foundation DB (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4fFDFbi3toc); we're emulating this kind of testing in our distributed system through Coyote. And unlike Foundation DB which had to develop their own variant of C++ to be able to do this kind of testing (kudos to them for doing it), Coyote allows us to do it on regular C# programs written using async/await asynchrony and benefit from decades of Microsoft Research in exploring large state spaces effectively.
What do you consider a fair amount of carbs? From what I remember, endurance athletes could stay in ketosis with around 100g of carbs daily, however this is not relatable for an average person. Another important fact is that on zero-carb diet with protein intake on athletic level (2-2.5g/bw_kg) you are in a moderate ketosis because of gluconeogenesis, which is a good thing according to Paul Saladino.

On the impossibility of zero-carb in modern life I have to say that it is completely false. I am on a carnivore diet myself now and eat close to none carbohydrates and I find it much more easy and sustainable than doing clean omnivore diet. I just got into habit of preparing my food based on muscle and organ meat at home and bring it with myself to work or wherever I'm going. Even if I didn't I can get cheese or some nuts from the shop sporadically. Dramatically lowered hunger cravings and stable levels of energy help a lot.

Same here. Unfortunately my distant cousins of more advanced age, and my mother, and even my brothers (all of whom have emails only one character off from my own) sometimes mistype. I suspect some groups incorrectly transcribe signups from paper forms as well.

I occasionally try to remedy the issues, but I have yet to convince my mother to fix the email on her bank account.
Libya didn't have open slave markets until the US and the French decided to bomb the shit out of their society, then send in billions of dollars to fund insurgents, and then arm those insurgents and let them promote their hateful ideology, in order to 'weaken the Middle East'.

Don't even try not to own up to that fact. Everyone who has been counting the piles of smoking rubble the US and its allies leave around the place, know just how much nicer things were before Americans decided to drop bombs on people they think the world doesn't care about.
I have the same switch that you have, but I have a bit of trouble with mine. Not sure if it’s an issue with the switch or with the way my computer boots or with my mouse or something else but when I boot my desktop computer which runs FreeBSD, the keyboard and mouse work during the initial stage of the boot process but then still during boot I think FreeBSD disconnects and reconnects all USB devices or something as part of the boot process, and when it does that the USB mouse which is connected via the switch stops working and then I have to press the button on the switch twice, if the other computer is on, or I have to unplug the switch from the desktop computer and plug it back in.
> more than 100 states out of 167 are democracies,

They're not.

The current https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democracy_Index lists 22 "full democracies", 64 "flawed democracies" and 24 "hybrid regimes".
I, too, have a question mark for the last point, but he is right for the performance remark, though.
> I see in the letter that all of the signees are retired, which expands the total number of generals (and admirals) alive significantly.

Active duty generals generally do not comment on political matters. Once they have left military service it's much easier for them to give a public opinion about politics without creating a conflict of interest.
> OOP doesn't have formal foundations

For a person trying to decide if they should learn OOP or not, I believe the above statement (along with the entire comment) is exactly what parent comment is talking about. A "noob's" reaction to that statement would be "what does that mean?", "why should I care?", "is this important?".

For other "noobs", the reaction would be "HN user leafboi seems an expert so I would stick to what he/she says even if I don't understand what he/she means and I will quote him/her every time an OOP discussion comes up. Fuck OOP".

Meanwhile there are still millions of projects done with OOP, including super-complex AAA games, and more are being done right now...
The US does NOT prosecute its own war crimes.

That is the point of the ICC in the first place: you cannot trust the war criminals to bring justice to their society.
Thank this is a very nice answer and it makes sense to me. Indeed I once sat down to try Kotlin for a day. The amount of code I had to write to get a json from an api into a dict that I could address by key was baffling to me. In python it took met 2 imported modules and then 2 lines (something like

some_dict = module.scrape_api()
value_I_want = some_dict['my_value']

I gave up after a day, when I just wrote down exactly what I expected to pull down and what types were in the values and keys. I can understand it helps you prevent errors but man is there a learning curve... BTW, I could write those checks in Python as well, but they are optional.

Not sure what to think of this article, it reads like science version of Buzzfeed.

> Meet the woman who gave the world antiviral drugs
> Then Gertrude Elion showed the doubters "what I could do on my own."

It totally disregards the role of some dozens of scientists in the process who came before her. It doesn't even mention Dr. Howard Schaeffer who actually discovered Acyclovir and went on to develop it with the help of Elion. Sadly, Schaeffer doesn't even have his own wikipedia page.

From wiki page on Aciclovir:

Nucleosides isolated from a Caribbean sponge, Cryptotethya crypta, were the basis for the synthesis of aciclovir. It was codiscovered by Howard Schaeffer following his work with Robert Vince, S. Bittner and S. Gurwara on the adenosine analog acycloadenosine which showed promising antiviral activity. Later, Schaeffer joined Burroughs Wellcome and continued the development of aciclovir with pharmacologist Gertrude B. Elion ...
I don't think that the new UI is intentionally bad. I can't imagine the team that pulls it off. It must be hell to work there or it's a team of sociopaths. Imagine plannings with power points on how to mess with users.

I agree that the new UI is worse, I'm just baffled by the reasons why it's the case. Probably bad management / structure.
Most laptops and desktops will disable the USB port/controller or at least cut power to it.

It won't stop you from sending 200V into it and frying something, but it will stop short-circuits and faulty/non-spec USB devices from doing serious damage.

I guess it's a cheap safeguard that works pretty well for consumer products.

How to Fight Discrimination in AI
Ada was the first language I learned at university back in 2003 (I had previously taught myself C/C++, Assembler and VB). It had a huge impact on me and influenced my entire career and how I approach software engineering. These days languages like Erlang and Haskell are carrying on some of the ideas (modularity, type safety, concurrency, etc.) in more modern incarnations. But there is still something special about Ada.

The Bandcamp support engineer only speculated that this could be the cause.

> it seems that the International Criminal Court (ICC) is being quite reasonable here.

It's as much politics on the ICC side as on the USA side.

For years, the ICC had only prosecuted former warlords from African countries. Only the loosing sides, the criminals that won national power were usually ignored, as the recent Ivory Coast shows. So some African leaders protested and even removed their country from the ICC. So the court had to react, at least to show an intention even if a real prosecution is totally unrealistic. So the ICC Prosecutor — which is the former Ministry of Justice of the Gambia dictator — launched inquiries about crimes by security forces of Myanmar (Birmania), Israel, USA… It's mostly a symbolic gesture.
