This is one of the undersung advances of the web - it's become more than access to the worlds knowledge (like some uber library) but has become a new means of transmitting learning.

On the other side if one could workout a way to identify a product related to this "new thing to learn" the retargetting value would be huge
This is so badly needed… There is no reasonable alternative to AirDrop, which has a number of problems, and is Mac-only.
And how can you claim that?
Ask HN: Tool to Visualize C Project?
I’m trying to port an old C project to a new platform. There are a lot of subdirectories, with files that then include headers in other directories.

I want to start porting directory by directory, keeping the project buildable at each step.

I figured that topologically sorting the dependency graph (based on headers) is a good start, but I don’t know of any tools that can build the graph automatically.

A simple graph of header includes should suffice.

Are there any tools you would recommend for this?
Oh, hey now. Look at the very bottom of the resource I sent you, under "Snippets" https://githooks.com/
Okay, so you write down that info on that piece of paper. You put the paper down somewhere.

A nurse gives someone medication that they told you they are allergic to.
Are you using the PartDesign workbench? In my experience for simple things (not 3D sketches) that almost follows the same workflow as Solidworks sketch -> extrude.
The real killer is beef. Simply replacing beef with almost anything else will have huge impacts (see page by FAO). If elimination is too much of an effort to make for our kids, doing it n% of the time will still bring n% improvements.

I might add that the generation of my parents (born in the 40's) ate meat once or twice a week, at least during the 40's and 50's, and they turned out fine.

I guess the coffee deal is mainly to drive footfall. I expect their hope is that when people are deliberating over lunch, those that already have the coffee deal will default to Pret so they don't pay twice for coffee with their sandwich etc.
blah blah blah, this dude is completely full of shit

Here's the scoop

HackerOne works with a very small, select group of security "professionals" for bug bounties.

Burp Proxy is the primary tool used for exploitation.

Burp Proxy relays all high value exploits back to portswigger.net.

James Kettle via portswigger.net brokers those high value vulnerability reports back to that same select group of security "professionals" that then in turn beat other security researchers to the punch in terms of the payout.

And Uber's security team is a complete and total piece of shit. A while back I compromised Uber's m.uber.com mobile endpoint with multiple high value vulnerabilities via HackerOne's bug bounty, only to have this exact same "notaffy" dude get awarded the $35K bounty from Uber in the weeks that followed, and with Uber locking via HackerOne all of my disclosures so that this notaffy turd could get the complete payouts by claiming that he had discovered them first in the literal hours before I had submitted my bug bounty reports.

Weeks and weeks of research into Uber's backend via HackerOne using Burp Proxy, at least eight critical vulns disclosed to HackerOne / Uber including reflected XSS and remote code execution capability, not a single dime awarded to me and with HackerOne locking all of my disclosures.

Burp Proxy is completely backdoored. When you scan targets with Burp Proxy, all high value vulnerabilities go to portswigger.net. You are then competing with this small select group of douchebags to beat them to the disclosure punch, and even then if you win, HackerOne will still award those vulnerabilities to this small select group while locking your disclosures from public dissemination.

HackerOne is complete garbage.

Uber is complete garbage.

And most importantly, portswigger.net and Burp Proxy is completely compromised to aggregate all high value discovered vulnerabilities, to be brokered to this select group of dickheads that sit on their ass and wait for the logs to roll in, at which point you are competing with them for all of the work you've put into the bug bounty.
I agree with you mostly because doctors were evidently capable of running their departments way back when on paper and pencil alone. But I also think it's possible that there's a well-intentioned regulation somewhere that says that a hospital is legally required to turn away patients when their systems are down. E.g., it could be a regulation for establishing a minimum standard of care and having the systems up and running is defined to be part of that minimum standard. I don't know anything about this case though.
Interesting that German authorities are considering treating the death as a homicide. The US has the felony murder doctrine where a death that occurs during the commission of a felony is automatically considered first degree murder. [0] Germany doesn't have that, but does bump up the penalties for certain specific "crimes with deadly outcome." [1]

Nuclear disasters reduce the available budget to build more nuclear power plants. Even with the assumption of a $30 billion dollar nuclear plant Japan could have enough money to build dozens of those if it didn't have to clean up Fukushima.
Thank you Captain Obvious.
Exactly, so to focus on dismissing the book/author seem very opportunistic since the core of the argument is still based on facts, and people should acknowledge the bad parts of their history.
The comment doesn't appear downvoted now, but it was possibly because "No it's not!" isn't much of an argument.

Maybe you find British Indian food too bland, too dry, too sweet, to have a lack of variety or to use low quality ingredients. Whatever it is, it could more usefully continue the discussion.

However, I think even people who've tried food in both countries (I haven't) will often find themselves arguing, based on their experience. The majority of "Indian" restaurants in Britain are cheap -- a step above a takeaway. Like similar restaurants in Britain, they have a menu based on combining pre-prepared ingredients/sauces to lower costs. There are also middle and some high-end Indian restaurants. I can easily imagine people experiencing "takeaway+" and assuming this standard of food is universal in Britain, or (especially on HN) someone on a business trip to London being taken to a high-end restaurant and generalizing from there.
I'd be surprised if it could prevent a script from running indefinitely. In particular, limiting the number of Lua bytecode instructions is insufficient

Random ordering of elements in a list is often used in maze generation. It's possible that a permutation that had only one cycle might produce a maze with a particular structure.
No but one of my clients is a major health care provider with over 35000 employees.

I don't manage their MT systems but I know about them and I hear about them from co-workers.

And just going on common sense I don't see how a computer could prevent a hospital from admitting a patient. We're talking about admission, not any special treatment.

So it's an honest question to the community, not trying to be dogmatic here. I'm honestly asking, what in a computer system could prevent a patient from being admitted for care?

As far as I can reason, no drugs are being held hostage by a computer. Doctors can still use their training without a computer.

Humans have been treating ailments for thousands of years without the aide of computers.

It would be really sad if this woman died because hospital staff felt hopeless without computers.

Edit: Going beyond just the human dependence on computers, it would be a good exercise in society readiness to be able to treat patients during a blackout for example.
The world has moved on a bit since everything was done on paper. The new process is not necessarily backwards compatible. Everyone is trained on using a computer interface for their work, there's a reliance on the computers to move the data to wherever it needs to be.

I reckon even a restaurant with a modern POS system would be problematic to switch to paper, ad-hoc.
I'm assuming you're from NZ? Given the greater degree of success NZ is having, are offices still filled there, with little change to pre-COVID?
The issue with diesel engines is the fuel does not burn as cleanly in terms of particulate matter. Biodiesel and dinosaur diesel are both the same in this. For the last 15 years or so new diesel cars in Europe have been required to have a diesel particulate filter with the aim of reducing this.

Unlike a catalytic converter though, eventually (after 150,000km or so) they will become blocked up and cause a noticeable drop in power or cause engine fault codes. At that point you need to replace it, which could be a few thousand Euro for a new DPF, or the more common option is to remove it. This is illegal in most EU countries, but also a blind eye is turned to it - even in places with strict emissions checks like the UK.

AdBlue is a modern way of reducing this even more, but there are already devices you can buy that will trick the ECU into thinking your tank of AdBlue is full when its actually empty.

Combined with other common issues like injectors wearing out, as a diesel engine gets old it will burn fuel a lot dirtier than a similar aged petrol engine.
It absolutely does! There's a lot evidence to support this claim. The smartest, most ethical people leave first. Eventually replacement employees will cost more and more to attract. The company will implode in a toxic talent vacuum. Shareholders will flee as margins decline. The company will have to take increasing user hostile actions to survive. Users will flee. Advertisers will flee.

And FB ceases to exist. A loud message will echo through silicon valley fit years to come.

The only ethical decision for the engineers to make is to quit. Thus all employees there are mathematically unethical. They are writing the code that executes the immoral decisions.
To quote Tesco: "every little helps".

I like to eat at Farmer J's. Decent food (quality/quantity), costs around £8. A "lunch" (laugh/cry) on Pret costs £3? £4? People that spent £10-20 per day to commute, £3-5 on dry cleaning, £6-8 for x2 coffees, will try to squeeze every penny. So yes they may go to Pret and save £4 from their "lunch".

I don't blame the shop, they don't sell heroin, they sell sandwiches. I merely focused on the fact that people see it at a "source for nutrition". The fault is to both sides. People prefer the tasty quick-fix (salt/sugar) instead of a balanced nutritional lunch. The Pret is positioning itself in every other block for convenience. The people (especially in the square mile and Canary Wharf) are overworked, stressed, and they need the quick bite/fix and then run back to work. I've heard a million times the line "I got no time and/or money to spend for a normal/decent lunch".

It is a mixture of the above. Plus the revolution of caffeine (no need to eat and sleep well - coffee will fix everything, will keep us going).

So yes, a "sandwich shop" (aka fast food) is also to blame partially (just as McD, KFC, etc.)

It is a hydra with a thousand heads, and COVID helped cut some of them, show how we can thrive with a different lifestyle.

People work from home. They will eat (hopefully) better, caffeine/sugar consuption (I hope) is reduced, the work is done, people will spend 1-2-3h less on trains/buses that they can spend with their loved ones (or sleep).

And yes, a sandwich shop (in every bloody corner) selling cheap junkfood 'packaged' (offered) with fried salty junk (crisps) and sugar (soft drinks) DOES contribute to obesity. Thinking that it doesn't is illogical. It's not a discussion on causality/coincidence.
It’s solutions like this that scream “off the shelf pi-hole”.

If you could buy a configurable/preconfigured pi-hole based on one of these directly from pi-hole I’d definitely buy one. Hopefully it would financially support future development too.
Julia is a fine platform for data science but so are Python/NumPY, R, and Matlab. Few of us have the luxury of building greenfield projects that are independent of our previous choices and real-world constraints. Understanding NumPY within this larger context is important, even if you are committed to the Julia ecosystem.
IMO replacing Win32 is needed but they do that too many times.
I think it was within the last 2 years when I searched for domains on Namecheap. They were shown as registered and I was offered to buy them for a premium price. When I searched on another other provider, it was shown as available and I bought it there. Will never use Namecheap again.
I was just in a call with somebody who is working in the medical industry on COVID vaccine and he explained to me that GDPR puts many of their efforts in jeopardy because if any patient issues a deletion request they have to delete the data which is very ward for them. It is interesting to see how legislation can slow down progress.
> Palm oil, mass-slaughter of animals, deforestation, Nestle taking away water from locals, CO2 emmissions etc.

Not at all what I was aiming at. The problem people have with FB isn't how they produce the product, but who uses it.

The problem with food and water in the equivalent scenario, would be in who consumes it. If you let everyone consume it "woah, that's a political choice". But it really isn't. It's the default, deviating from it is a political choice.
Because it makes business sense to hire best of the best. Football clubs have unlimited supply of players, yet they pay ridiculous amounts of money to their players.
Lobby government for green energy
Bunker fuel is what's left after crude oil has had all the lighter fractions cracked off:

Small molecules like those in propane, naphtha, gasoline for cars, and jet fuel have relatively low boiling points, and they are removed at the start of the fractional distillation process. Heavier petroleum products like diesel fuel and lubricating oil are much less volatile and distill out more slowly, while bunker oil is literally the bottom of the barrel; in oil distilling, the only things denser than bunker fuel are carbon black feedstock and bituminous residue (asphalt), which is used for paving roads and sealing roofs.

Doctors trained in a 1940s environment with 1950s communication habits and 1950s information-management systems were capable of doing that.

I'm not sure a nonmilitary a doctor today could spin one of those info-management systems up in a single day though.

I don't see how that is relevant

My impression from the article is that they want all students who struggle to read to be supported, not just those from wealthy backgrounds
I don't think there's one way. This isn't a codified law, for exmaple, it's just a model of failure analysis.

In my experience, we use the 5 Whys [1] as a technique to drill down to 'root causes'. However, along the way you'll identify a whole heap of compounding factors, each of which may change the degree of severity or indeed completely avert the issue.

In this particular instance, in isolation you can say that the hook failed and caused a fire, but it took several additional factors to make it as bad as it was:

1) Lack of maintenance (which in itself has a whole tree of causal factors)

2) Excess buildup of flammable material

3) Particuarly dry/hot weather conditions

4) Lack of firefighting resources due to other mitigating circumstances

5) Encroachment of living premises into dangerous areas

etc. etc.

I don't really know how the US courts might handle allocating liability, because I'm not located there, but I don't think there's one particular way to do it. I do however think that trying to retroactively allocate liability to this specific incident is probably the wrong way to look at it.

Instead I think the better apporach is to say that PG&E were delinquent in their responsibility of ensuring safe equipment, and regardless of the actual consequence they should be judged on that. For example, there are established processes to assess risk, and those risks include both a likelihood and consequence. All of that is then taken in combination to understand the total risk of something. The then have a legal obligation to ensure things are safe, and they broke that so punishment should be based on that. This would hold, whether the dereliction of duty was realised through a disaster or only identified from a near miss.

Similarly, you could assess that the government was delinquent in its duties to perform backburning, etc.

ASK HN: Computational tools for predicting drugs effectiveness in diseases
Clinical trials are expensive, very difficult to set up in the case of rare diseases. If we look at the entire cycle from a university lab to a successful Phase III, a positive result is around 1 in 1,500.

So many people wonder if clinical trials could be replaced by computational trials. This happened at least in one case in USA. There are very sophisticated software in the area of PK/PD, but they are based on very simple assumptions such as storage and diffusion of drugs through the biological compartments.

A new article on Nature[0] tells that it is possible to predict side effects using a recommender system. Basically the scientists built a matrix between drugs and their side effects and inferred probabilities of side effects, including side effects that were still not observed. The researchers claim their tool makes it possible to correlate these probabilities with physiology. The code is available [1].

I guess it would be simple to extend this idea to predict how a drug would be successful for a disease.
This is actually the goal of any clinical trial. This could save billions of dollars in research in biotechs and academia while saving time and life of patients. It would also render animal testing obsolete.

We have databases such as Drugbank [2] linking drugs to diseases. It is quite trivial to make a matrix linking diseases to drugs. The questions are "how much trustworthy it is?" and "how it could demonstrate trustworthiness to non-engineers or non-mathematicians, specially to medical specialists".

For having any success, the issue of trust certainly need a lot of scrutiny.

Any thought?

I would actually recommend avoiding the Part workbench and only using Part Design, at least to start with.

The Part workbench makes you create your object using CSG primitives which you size and position using the properties editor, which is just super painful.

In Part Design, you create sketches of 2d profiles and then pad them up, pocket them in, revolve them around an axis, sweep them through a path, etc.

Part Design just seems much more convenient and powerful.

The only thing you can't do in Part Design is create 3d paths like helixes, but fortunately you can create these using the Part workbench and still use them as paths in Part Design.
> just going on common sense I don't see how a computer could prevent a hospital from admitting a patient.

Common sense is knowledge gained by experience. Thats' why kids "don't have any".

> I'm honestly asking, what in a computer system could prevent a patient from being admitted for care?

This is a good question for us to have more detailed understanding of.
FreeCAD saved me a lot of headaches when I bought a flat last year. My wife wasn't happy with me spending a lot of time drawing stuff by the entresol ended up exactly as we expected and since I modeled and positioned every piece of furniture in FreeCAD, only a single power outlet is in a wrong position (and that's because we got a different locker than we origianly intended).

The bugs are there but you learn to work around them easily. And it's not like commercial software is bug free as probably anyone dealing with video editing can attest. ;)
I have my domains somewhere else, but iwantmyname their domain buy page is definitely one of my favourites, all those TLDs!
Posting stuff that was not approved by CDC scientists, as coming from the CDC is a pretty massive scandal however you want to slice it.
The funny part is that you don't have a name that only applies to people from your country. As the other comment said, there many millions of Americans that are not from the US.

In the same vein, people from the EU call themselves Europeans even though there are many millions of Europeans that don't live in EU countries.

To answer your question: I identify myself as European, Spaniard and Catalan. Just like I'm pretty sure there will be some people in the US that consider themselves Americans and Texans or Californians or New Yorkers or whatever...
> I'm sure they experts know better than I do, but dyslexia seems like SOMETHING more than just having big problems with reading.

What difference would that be? The article seems to be saying that no-one can consistently diagnose any such distinction, and the same treatments work equally well for people who are diagnosed dyslexic versus "just having big problems with reading".
Three-generation house-holds or households where adult children live with their older parents are very uncommon in most, but not all, EU countries.

The numbers you cite are explained by old people living in retirement facilities or coliving arrangements, but that doesn't imply cohabitation with young people. Under these circumstances, special precautions can and must be taken.
Why do you say it sounds like OpenSCAD? It's not very much like OpenSCAD.

I'm really confused. If our civilization is gone why would we care about nuclear waste? Animals have existed for hundreds of millions of years and they do fine even in Chernobyl. There is enough time left in the universe for this stuff to decay. What we have to make sure is that it doesn't hurt us while we are still alive.
