I don't understand the need to link to 15 Notion notes.

It makes the post bland and tasteless.

Please think of blogs and posts like a product. What your user needs is information rather than a Self-service page with 15 posts.

There is a chance you have great content, which dies in notion, or does not give your domain any SEO credit.

Edit: Just noticed the site is on Webflow, if anyone from the company reads this, please just copy paste all the content (if you are on the CMS plan). Also add more to this page in terms of a small snippet for each page.
Yeah, that's another problem with the design of the web, and kind of a significant one! Somewhat pointless to link to external documents when half of them won't be around next year.
I really enjoy these, but where can I find an explanation of what each falsehood means (in particular: the network one)?

I mean, now that I know I’m wrong, how do I become right?

This is not a duty of adblocker. You don't have it to be an ad to bust your data package.
sed -i creates a temp file. Needs additional storage space the size of the file.

This can pose a problem with large files on smaller computers with limited storage and memory.

In the past, some BSD seds (other than FreeBSD) did not have the -i option.

Also worth noting that "sponge", unlike sed, apparently reads the entire file into memory. For a large file, this would require enough RAM to fit the entire file.
"it's amazing how many people can legally enter private property without the owner's permission"

Scotland has 'right to roam' so we can wander about pretty much anywhere (with a few sensible restrictions) and there are actually very few signs at dangerous spots - I can only think of a handful. The idea that you would go onto someone else's land, have an accident and then blame the landowner seems a very strange idea to me.
I believe this was the plot of Michael Crichton's _Rising Sun_ (1992).

Show HN: Bookmark with Scheme Lisp REPL
You can use it to run Scheme interpreter on any website, if it don't have content security policy (like Hacker News). You can use it while learning Lisp (Scheme) or when testing some code from online book or PDF (at least in Chrome).

The link to Bookarklet can be found in this link:

https://jcubic.github.io/lips/#bookmark

The bookmark use devel version of LIPS Scheme, it will be released version after 1.0.0 is finished.

Latest version is very old, devel and beta versions have lot of changes.

LIPS scheme have almost fully working lisp macros and hygienic macros systems (syntax-rules) but still no call/cc and TCO.
I've seen implementations of ORM's where the complicated joins of relational operations are embedded in the ORM definition. It's done for performance, without considering the impact on future business process review.

This inherently hides that logic from external review.

One of the things we need to enable as architects is to make sure the systems we build are adaptable. Any "framework" that begins to hide logic through efficiencies is bad architecture.
I am, but at 32 I'll be that whiz kid by 40. Heck, I'll take that. I love mastering the craft and getting deeper and deeper into it each year. It's rewarding. Though being a decade ahead would be pretty astounding.

That being said in just 7 short years I've gotten onto doing platform level development and having a great time doing it, so I'm pretty much right where I want to be.

I went to Greene's old school (where his father had been headmaster).

It's interesting how much stuff from the school pops up in his novels - from the school motto in "Monsignor Quixote" to the route walked from the school in "The Captain and the Enemy".

Minor anecdote: He visited the school once, and I remember seeing him stop at a corner and turn to look directly at me. Only in retrospect do I realise that he may have been looking across the decades at me as he might have been himself (the architecture and uniform hadn't changed much).

If you're looking for a light read then I recommend "Our Man in Havana" as a taster of Greene. It's amusing and less imbued with the claustrophobia of his more serious novels.
Agreed.

When scoping out the size of Google+, one of ArchiveTeam's recent projects, it emerged that the typical size of a post was roughly 120 bytes, but total page weight a minimum of 1 MB, for a 1% payload to throw-weight ratio. This seems typical of much the modern Web. And that excludes external assets: images, JS, CSS, etc.

If just the source text and sufficient metadata were preserved, all of G+ would be startlingly small -- on the order of 100 GB I believe. Yes, posts could be longer (I wrote some large ones), and images (associated with about 30% of posts by my estimate) blew things up a lot. But the scary thing is actually how little content there really was. And while G+ certainly had a "ghost town" image (which I somewhat helped define), it wasn't tiny --- there were plausibly 100 - 300 million users with substantial activity.

But IA's WBM has a goal and policy of preserving the Web as it manifests, which means one hell of a lot of cruft and bloat. As you note, increasingly a liability.
To be fair lawyers are worth more than senior software developers, but not too much more. That $250-$750 per hour is the business rate not the profit that goes to the attorney. If an attorney works at a large firm most of that goes back to the firm. If the attorney goes out of their own they have personal business expenses to account for.

As a software developer I bring home more than some attorneys I have met. I am not working a FAANG making buckets of cash either.
> And Crockford makes the better tradeoff by addressing I/1/l ambiguity instead of U/V.

Exactly!

It is much easier to mistake "l" for "1" (lowercase L for number 1) than "5" for "S" or "U" for "V".
PGP suffered from a similar problem.
No, use Python. Python is a good choice for web development, and will remain the de-facto choice for ML for the foreseeable future. If you plan on learning both web development and ML, that will be quite enough work without throwing a second language into the mix right away.

Julia might be a good thing to explore once you're up and running.
Craig Murray is a crank.

He's a former ambassador, and he's also right about quite a lot of things, but he's also got the fundamental problem of seeing enemies everywhere.

Bellingcat, for example, is just another blogger, although doing "OSINT" to, for example, locate the BUK launcher likely used in the shooting down of MH17, and with various claims as to the involvment of GRU officers in poisonings such as Salisbury and Navalny.

77th Brigade is a British Army propaganda unit. "Integrity Initiative" are widely suspected to be such.
An old employer did this, but instead of just at the beginning this was a monthly rotation thing (3 days each month or so). Being forced to do support definitely was a major factor in my quitting. I don’t even mind support so much, used to do it for a job in university. But you don’t hire a highly educated professional and stick them in an entry tier role part of each month, not if you respect them.
That's like saying you don't want to learn things you don't already know.
Do you not have radio stations where you value how the host selects, curates, and gives the background to the music for you?

What about the current affairs, plays, comedy, history?

I can’t imagine going without the radio!
I don’t see how you can know he team dynamics and politics (all companies have politics) before joining somewhere unless you have a friend working there. And even then what they pick up on might be different to you. I’ve seen a company I haven’t worked for but who was on my radar go from hero company that employees loved to mass walkout not soon after that was bought out.

Buy outs are a big factor plus reshuffles of management and teams.

Not only that, I’ve had excellent vibes at places in the first 6 months to find out the asshole factor is high later on too. Also without any of this stuff just changes, and I don”t see how that is avoidable. Change is constant! MMMV.

From the abstract: "Our system can generate novel points between professional tennis players that resemble Wimbledon broadcasts, enabling new experiences such as the creation of matchups between players that have not competed in real life, or interactive control of players in the Wimbledon final."

I don't believe academic researchers needs to justify their work by providing real life applications. But if that were the extent of deepfake's utility, I'd be underwhelmed.
No, the issue is quite simply: why does your system care what gender the person has? Unless it has a specific need for it, don't even bother

You might ask if it should use Mr./Ms. (or Dr. or some other academic title) etc but even that is a bit anachronistic. Maybe this makes sense if you're sending mail to your customer, but even then.

How to solve 50% of your GDPR troubles: stop asking for data you have absolutely no use for (and no, selling customer data is not a legitimate use)
My guess is that he's numbering sequentially from the hearings earlier in the year, e.g. https://www.craigmurray.org.uk/archives/2020/02/your-man-in-...
IANAL but just to point out a couple obvious points:

- the lawyer doesn't receive the full 250, half of it(?) goes to business/partnership

- afaik many lawyers under-bill their hours, i'm not sure why (beyond "competition") but it's a common practice

- the job itself may not be enjoyable at some point and you may desire more creative pursuits
Haha amazing.

I remember one of my first real programs in uni after figuring out enough programming to make something but not to make it well.

I wrote this calculator for the various math and physics problems I had at the time and it had a nested menu system where when you clicked on a menu item it added that particular calculator/equation to a window pane.

It was an absolute rats nest, but boy was it good.

It's pretty incredible how you can make working software out of both well crafted code and absolute spaghetti.
> Why do some stores have a captcha as part of their checkout process? I'm noticing that recently and I can't figure it out.

And why doesn't Google optimize it to return "human" straight away when I am logged in with a 15 year old paying account who took a similar test earlier that day same day?

Anyone who knows who are free to answer?

Because otherwise I'll stick with my explanation which is one or more of:

- organizational incompetence (surely someone should be able to code that up, only they don't call the shots and those who do aren't competent to see the issue)

- greed (why do it when we can force people to do unpaid work for us?)

- other possibly even worse reason
Realising that functions could be first class object, that is, they could be passed around just like integers or strings. Suddenly a whole new world of possibilities to simplify code magically opened up.

Don't worry, I hope Mr. Navalny resumes his blogging soon so I can be as well informed as you are
So many people complaining about the price have obviously never tried to build something similar and sell it. Why do you all expect free designs and then complain about big companies being unenthical?
I totally can see negatives:

- no water cooler talk and lunchs > bad for team spirit/work friendships

- heated discussions going stale and ending up in resentment > easier to resolve in person when you get a good feeling for how the other feels (and interact about non-problematic things, e.g. the mentioned lunch together)

- grabbing a busy person when you feel the time is right

- harder to motivate yourself when you are on low-energy or stuck

(And yet I think the positives even that all out)
That's a strawman because I never said they should be. There's room for better alternatives.

We as a community need to think bigger rather than resigning ourselves to our fate.
IMO, query (search) parameters are originally designed for remote database search and forms. search criteria and form fields are often contain optional and conditional fields (conditional ie. only meaningful if some other field checked or having some specific value). but clients send them anyway because the logic (what is optional and which field depends on which) is known by the server. that's why client side programs consider server-side programs being lax accepting any parameter.
however appending various cryptic 1-letter parameters without knowing the target http resource's semantics is unclever, since get parameters are part of the url, so changing them changes the url itself, so the new url does not necessarily points to the same resource. IMO, it's the web's originally visioned concept of identifier–resource-relation which is not adhered in today's websites. and this leads to dirty workarounds, unnecessary complexity and security holes.
Depends on your definition of general AI. I personally think it might be achieved by us without such a black box; that we could understand why it works though unable to predict how it will behave exactly. As for human consciousness I wouldn't ever assume something we built is the same as it until we understand our own brains further.
Nowadays, can people even have bank accounts in their names in China without Chinese ID ?
>Store the name in two fields, have the users bend over our western form standards but be able to search and sort easily.

You can't search and sort easily if the names are stored in Japanese. You need 4 fields for that.

Edit: now that I think about it I could think of a disgustingly hacky way to squash them into 2 fields and retain those properties, and by extension into a single field and retain those properties.
Which arguments convince you and which don't?
Yup, I don't like some of the lists that just lists falsehoods without providing what one's supposed to do about it.
This doesn't seem curated. It just seems like a list (a long one bloated one at that).
I mean you're right, but I don't see what this point has to do with my comment...
Thank you. Your analysis showed me other side of that acting, it let me interpret that skit as a whole.
https://www.cps.gov.uk/legal-guidance/extradition has a lot of details on what an extradition court hearing can/must consider, and the legal basis of arguments against a non-consensual extradition (which this case clearly is).

It bears reading through, regardless of your personal views on the case, because this is what the UK's prosecution service thinks the law is. It's likely to be the same or close to the UK Government / 'state' view too and indicative of what the presiding magistrate in the case is working off.

Let's just rename everyone a GUID and be done with it.
Assange is the litmus test that privacy concerns are not safe from being monopolised by one part of the political spectrum.

Before Trump and the Clinton leaks, Assange was a darling for the liberal media and even on the conservative ring. Then when the leaks came out, Assange became a figure of hate for the same liberal groups who were praising and supporting him before.

Now ironically its people on both sides of the fringe that have remained stalwart in supporting him. The middle have declared him "problematic" and have decided to throw him under the carpet along with all the privacy concerns and government overreach of surveillance that he and WikiLeaks had highlighted.

Sure this is just human nature that people come and go out of favour, but this 180 flip is just hypocritical (especially with the Guardian becoming hostile to him).

What we are seeing here in the court room, is powerful people who want rid of him, not even treating him like a bargaining chip. Just literally wanting to sweep him away like a nuisance.
As a serial victim of bullying I can wholeheartedly say this article hits the nail on the head with respect to the dynamics of bullying.

Bullying is a stage play orchestrated by the bully, reserving the role of crazy unreasonable person for the victim. No bully is daft enough to punch a victim when the teacher is watching -- unless of course they can make it seem like the victim is the cause.

I've had one teacher respond to my bullying with "but you act so weird". This is of course the arbor on which bullying hinges. Most adults have enough sense to not say it out loud even if it is how they feel.

I'm glad to have found this article, it has allowed me to give behaviour of past bullies a place. It's rare to find media which does that. The only other example I have run into is the "to this day project" by Shane Koyczan[1] which I feel should be obligatory watching for everyone.

Kudos to the author.

Were there different user agents or did all clients have to use the same interface?
Jeremy's literal statement is:

"Like Python is not the future of machine learning. It can't be. You know, it's so nicely hackable, but it's so frustrating to work with a language where you can't do anything fast enough unless you call out to some external code or C code, and you can't run anything in parallel unless you put in a whole other process."

So exactly the point made here.
TCO. Total Cost of Ownership. Bare metal + staffing costs should be compared to cloud + its staffing costs.
The "SingleFile" plugin is a better version of ctrl+s. It will save all pages as single html file and even include images as an octet stream in the file so they aren't missed.
I initially read the title as The Art of Debating Software Developers. Which I would also find very interesting.
Oh, I had not heard anything about this coverage of the Alex Salmond case.

Thanks very much for bringing this to my attention, I live in Scotland and the whole thing has been very odd.
I mean, that's almost the same debate as XHTML vs HTML5 of yesteryear...

Some people want strict requirements, but "whatever works for the end-user" usually wins.

...and as a result, we got monstrosities like user agent strings. But that's something we need to deal with I guess
The scene at the end where the police chief discusses his wallet is chilling, though.

Pretty sure he left it out of the screenplay.
From a personal experience, the onboarding process should be gradual and proceeds by steps (which doesn't mean it should be slow).
As others said in the comments, it depends a lot on the role the person has (junior vs. senior) but starting a new position in a new company can be stressful for anyone. That is why a business should give its new employees the time to fit in rather than creating an overwhelming environment around them. By doing so, people will give their best and the outcome will be higher at the end.
An interesting article I read on the matter is the following --> https://hronboard.me/blog/employee-onboarding-best-practices...

Would be interested to know how the Tesla T4's fit in, if at all. They seem to be by far the most "affordable" if your goal is to get in at the low end in the data center space. But not at all sure if they represent value in terms of $/compute?
Wouldn't that prevent reaching the page?
Yeah sorry for the german sources.

It's not as much as allow but tollerate if certain prerequirements are met e.g. not sending any diagnosis data to Microsoft.
And it sounds more like they are somewhat pressured into it. Intensive talks...

I agree that 'free delivery' can work out costing more or about the same as paid. Have I done a proper calculation though, no. My Dad is awkward though and will convince himself he's saving money regardless.
My understanding is that a journalist can receive and publish unlawfully obtained material, but they can’t incite or assist someone to obtain it.

Does sufficient evidence exist that Assange broke US law? If so it would seem that he’s extraditable - and I’m not sure how the ‘bigger picture’ (‘Whistleblower’ public interest, ‘time served’ in the Embassy) overrides UK’s legal obligations here.
So, now I have to not only learn Python but also Fortran/C++/C because the underlying library that I might want to adapt is written in one of these languages.

Basically the only time you'll want to do this from Python is if there is specific Fortran or C++ library you want to use. You'd have to do the same in Swift or Julia in this case.
Didn't they back out Denuvo in the end? It seems fair to choose not to purchase a game if it has DRM, but conversely, if the company responds to the community by removing it, that seems like "good industry behaviour" worth rewarding :).
What a silly title. Obviously if a company acquires another company they will acquire the email contacts and accounts as well. And LinkedIn has the right to connect accounts they own across their web properties.

The rest of the article is bottom tier conspiracy theory that this is a stealthy way for LinkedIn to secretly sell all their PII. This is dumb for a variety of reasons:

1) Linkedin makes all their money selling people ads and recruiting messages, they lose this if they sell direct access to their users.

2) 500m emails sale value isn't worth jack shit to a company the size of LI/Microsoft (see point 1).
Yes you're right. One could argue though that those usages would avoid dirty sources of CO2.

But I agree that "avoiding to output more CO2" is not a replacement for "removing CO2", and this is very important indeed. It's just an additional war front, not a replacement.
This is both good and scary idea: for the good part, I'm frustrated enough that some unscrupulous websites (even some news outlets) secretly alter their contents without mentioning the change. I want a mechanism that holds the publisher responsible. At the same time, this is scary because we're basically using one private organization a single arbitrator. (I know it's a nonprofit, but they're probably not as public as a government entity.) Maybe it's good for the time being, but we should be aware that this is a solution that's far from perfect.
