I previously worked on an in-browser Hearthstone card renderer that uses Canvas. The rendering needed to be client-side for dynamic use cases (where the card would receive various effects thus change its look).

However I also needed to implement a server-side version of it that prerendered all the cards to PNG so that they're browsable without having clients consume excessive cpu/battery. Doing it using a separate codebase would have been hell to reconcile. Hence node-canvas.

Of all the great content in APUE, I think W. Richard Stevens’ (RIP) coverage of daemonization is the only piece I’ve ever used.

Fortunately I recently replaced my lost 1st edition with a 2nd edition, and the coverage looks similar. From what I can see there are two details left out of this article:

* Why changing the working directory is important (so the daemon doesn’t accidentally prevent a file system from being unmounted in the future).

* WRS emphasized logging.

Some of the details are different (umask as the first function instead of the last), but the highlights are comparable.
planes have two things going for them: good air circulation with filtration, and mask-wearing is well enforced.
I'm quite excited for the emerging Python-, Git-, and DAG-driven data engineering workflows/orchestrators that are code-first, GUI-second. But is anyone daunted at the prospect of investing in one of these platforms, then having to pivot to the paradigm that emerges as the winner 3-5 years from now? I've been trying to keep up with all the tools, but am pretty overwhelmed at this point. Obviouly there's differences, but off the top of my head I can think of:
Airflow, Luigi, Pachyderm, DAGster, Google Cloud Compose, Kuberflow, MLFlow, Azure ML Pipelines, Ascend.io, and so so many more.
This will be more similar to giving location or push permissions that a cookie warning. You have to actively opt-in to allowing an app access to your IDFA on an app-by-app basis. They can ask you to do this one time and if you say no the only way that setting will ever change is if you go to the iOS settings app and enable tracking for that app. Currently you can opt out on a system level. The change will make it opt in on an app level.

>generally insurance is a real PITA with vitamin D testing

FWIW, vitamin D has been among the things tested when I have my blood work for an annual physical and never had any insurance issue about it. And I do take supplements because it was low.

As a disclaimer to this I actually pay for ProtonMail and OSMaps because they’re products I use daily and feel that they deserve the money, however they do have free tiers and there are free alternatives to most Google software. I’d strongly suggest looking into de-Googling, there’s an entire subreddit dedicated to it.

Here is the NRC website about this reactor:

https://www.nrc.gov/reactors/new-reactors/smr/nuscale.html

Here is an interesting sub-report:

https://www.nrc.gov/docs/ML2022/ML20224A525.pdf

Information withheld for security reasons. One item concerns the "ultimate heat sink". What happens when the ultimate heat sink is lost?

Well a design assumption is that it is not lost:

https://www.nrc.gov/docs/ML2020/ML20205L410.pdf

"A key assumption of the PRA is the availability of the UHS to provide an adequate heat sink. To support passive heat removal with the DHRS or ECCS, the reactor modules are housed and partially submerged in the UHS such that most of the outer surface of the CNV directly contacts the UHS, which is a large pool of water in the reactor building (RXB). "

DHRC is decay heat. CNV is reactor containment vessel. So drain the pool and the reactor is in trouble.
This book changed the way I think about many things in the world. Highly recommended.

It's a failure of priorities that I see a lot at work and push back on.

The need to act is based on the magnitude of the problem relative to your desired outcome, not relative to the current state of affairs. If you don't do this at the beginning, then 'new' things will pop onto the list as you go along, resulting in solutions that are anywhere from suboptimal to maladaptive.

Looked at holistically, you might notice that 3, 5, 7 and 8 all have the same root cause, and taken together they may be the 1st or 2nd largest problem. They may also be easier to fix.

But no, we're gonna start at the top and work our way down until people get tired of hearing from us.
> tremendously higher efficiency

For heat, yes, but not AC. For example, the Mitsubishi MY-GL12NA is a very efficient mini-split with an EER of 13, but a random modern window or through-wall unit (ex: https://amazon.com/dp/B07D8R2V8H/) will have an EER of ~12.
> Assuming the CIA assassinated a president because at one point someone gave a command without being explicitly authorized from their superior is quite a leap, don't you think?

Indeed it would be, and that's not what I was doing in my post. I brought up the U-2/Eisenhower history only to establish that the CIA was already taking steps to make itself the final arbiter on policy, above and independent from the POTUS. Especially when it came to any potential rapprochement in the Cold War, toward which JFK was also making serious overtures just before he was killed.

You can go looking through the vast numbers of theories around JFK's killing and find absurd ones I'm sure, but lumping them all together into one big undifferentiated mass hardly makes for a good argument. In favor of the existence of a conspiracy, there are numerous witnesses and extensive documented and circumstantial evidence, and the motive for such a conspiracy is clear. It's one thing if you don't find that evidence persuasive but it's ridiculous to call it "baseless."
> Not really a replacement for quality journalism.

The trouble (in my opinion) is that major networks don't really offer much in the way of "quality journalists."

They've mostly devolved into getting hot takes from pundits and "rah rah our team is great".

I listen to (and donate to) NPR (Iowa Public Radio specifically) because I think they are about as good as you can get for "quality journalism", but even their work devolves into garbage as soon as politics or culture come into play.

It probably doesn't help that a few years ago they redid their program structure to focus less on news and more on "think pieces" [1]

It would be interesting to compare those with heart issue problems with covid infection, with those who had no issues at all, to see what the difference was.

Almost all predictions of running out of ores have been wrong. They’re based on “proven reserves,” but mining companies don’t bother proving much beyond 50 years worth.
I think the best solution is to cast a wide net, gather information from as many viewpoints as possible, and then look for correlations to narrow down on the truth.

The human brain is surprisingly good at this. The brain is constantly doing this with our various senses. None of those senses is perfect and they are fooled easily yet by examining the overlap we are able to create a surprisingly accurate picture of reality.

I notice you didn't answer the question.
Definitely casting the story in the light they want to cast it in, and omitting exculpatory evidence.

Ironically, a good summary of what the article is about.
Previously on HN, a physician shared some thoughts on treating Vitamin D as a medication and not as a dietary supplement:

Part 1: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24138590

Part 2: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24261948

To summarize - popping in large doses of Vitamin D is not exactly safe.

No, these are the reserve that are available at a given price. It is very sensitive to technology. Moreover, price of uranium is a small part of the cost of a powerplant, so there is not as much price sensitivity. We're still good for around ~200 years.

I don't know if I ever had it (I still get tested occasionally), but I don't ever feel 100% anymore. I don't know if this feeling is psychological or if it has something to do with COVID-19.
>The best available treatment that at the beginning of the outbreak in our hospital, included the use of hydroxychloroquine/azithromycin therapy [23,24,26]. However, taking into consideration more recent data on the safety and efficacy of chloroquine and hydroxychloroquine in small randomized clinical trials, case series, and observational studies this treatment is no longer considered effective [32] in treating COVID-19.

calling it the "standard of care" in the present tense is very disingenuous. it was briefly considered to be effective at the beginning of the outbreak. it was determined relatively quickly that it was not actually an effective treatment. this has nothing to do with politics.

You can force portability and remove UB at the same time. For example the system is not two's complement? just wrap everything math operation with checks on those system and say that your language is two's compliment!

Or just does what C does, make it UB and the programmers will be aware of implementation of overflows and won't suffer because of added checks. They will do the checks themselves if they want and handle their numbers with care

Imo the answer always boils down to performance. Java has no UB yet it works on billion devices (citation needed). It is doable, just costly.

I think you're underselling it. The book is without question the most interesting I've read in the past twelve months. It took me several months to read, not because it was dull but because the ideas it presented every few pages were so thought provoking that a great deal of pondering was required to understand their implications.
Hydroxychloroquine was never the "best standard of care". It's a quack treatment that was pushed by some bad studies.

Reading Hydroxychloroquine mentioned in this study should make one very suspicious.

Open Letter from a Machine, How Do You Explain a Human?
This is exactly correct and a large driver of the problem for me. React Hooks eschew solving the problem I really care about (shared state) in favor of solving the problem I don't care about 99% of the time (shared life-cycle). On top of that, the API is terrible - magical extra args, stale closures over state are baked in, and using a hidden index to track call order so they can't be used in branches or loops!? I have never written a hook correctly on the first try because the behavior is too unpredictable/subtle.
Yes, it was a nice surprise finding that the protocol is that simple.
I looked into that when I was told to take 2,000 IU daily, since I had no idea what an IU of vitamin D involved. A web search said that people who were taking megadoses of vitamin D, which was mislabeled and actually 10 times stronger than what they thought they were getting, started developing problems in a month or so.

It's available right off the shelf. As long as people aren't taking an entire bottle all at once, it seems pretty safe to me. (Disclaimer: Dammit Jim, I'm a software engineer, not a doctor.)

You don't actually need NPM and CoC. I've been using pure-VimL
vim-lsc[1] for a couple of years, and it's been serving me well. My
config:

let g:lsc_auto_map = {'Completion': 'omnifunc'}
let g:lsc_enable_autocomplete = v:false
let g:lsc_server_commands = {
\ 'c': {
\ 'command': 'clangd',
\ 'log_level': -1,
\ 'suppress_stderr': v:true,
\ },
\ 'cpp': {
\ 'command': 'clangd',
\ 'log_level': -1,
\ 'suppress_stderr': v:true,
\ },
\}

This gives me code completion and other niceness.

With Vim 8.1, you don't even need a package manager, since there is one
built in. Just clone the Git repo into your

Again, you're assuming that ordinary people had some way to easily "keep a copy for themselves". This was emphatically not the case. This data was not digital. It only existed as a set of magnetic tapes in an unusual format: 1" magnetic tapes containing application-specific analog data. The number of institutions that would have been capable of copying and storing this data would have been small; it's improbable that any individual, "happy mutant" or otherwise, could have done so at the time.

The notion that any sort of data is easy to copy and store is a modern concept. It was usually not the case in the past.
