> Nor do we want to learn about how to build and maintain Python virtual environments

This is a shame, because this is one thing that Python gets mostly right. You don't have to fuss around with the shell wrapper, etc. For 90% of cases you can probably do:

$ virtualenv subdir-name
$ subdir-name/bin/pip install <package-names>
$ subdir-name/bin/python your-python-script.py
I believe so.

Solution to a problem that doesn't exist. Just a plausible cover for the actual nefarious reasons.
They have also voluntarily stopped selling in Germany. Most likely they anticipated gross violation of some policy. It would be interesting to know which one. On average EU has far better citizen protection mechanisms than US.
I've given the users attacking you a thorough scolding for breaking the site guidelines, but you've also been breaking the site guidelines by using this site for flamewar, by posting excessively on this issue and dropping swipes like "you Assange conspiracists" (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24408007). It's not surprising that you provoked this sort of reaction from others on the opposite side of the issue from you. That's not cool, and if you'd please review https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and stick to using this site as intended, we'd appreciate it.

To use HN as intended means primarily posting thoughtful, substantive comments on topics of intellectual curiosity. Internet polemics are tedious and nasty, and that gets truer as the topic gets hotter and more sensational. Assange threads, for example, already years ago became repetitive to the point of utter pointlessness. Nobody's convincing anybody—people are just beating each other with the same talking points over and over. If that's the game you want to play on the internet, please do it somewhere else.
If you think $300 for a watch, smart or not, isn't luxury level money, I think you really need to re-evaluate where "rich" starts and "most people" ends.

I completely agree with this hypothesis, it explains why groups so disparate have all seen similar outcomes(low instances of severe covid:

-homeless

-celebrities

-children

What do all these groups have in common?

Age? well count out celebrities, ie. Tom Hanks, Prince Philip(both are in advanced age).

Good health? I'd count out homeless as a lot suffer from chronic ill-health.

Weight? Some heavier celebrities have had covid and been fine, its an important metric though.

Exposure to a lot of viruses? Yes, all three groups are in constant exposure to a multitude of viruses, from children in daycare, to celebrities interacting with tons of people to always traveling, to homeless getting exposed to viruses in trash and living in unsanitary conditions.
put +"jdk 15" in quotes with a + in front, you just have to learn the tool. Google AI will almost always be better because it learns your areas of interest, DDG will always be behind on that. So there is obviously a trade off.
Oh wow, I used to use that theme. Thanks for making it. Yeah, most of the elisp I write is mostly just glue code, not something that makes sense to package and distribute.

I've been going down the rabbit hole looking through different software in this space. I started an awesome-list to track what I've learned:

> the US has more deaths per capita than Sweden

Nothing to be proud about for either of them. Anyway, until e.g. month ago Sweden had the lead.
US context, unsurprisingly, isn't applicable to the UK.

In the UK a bunch of people self-describe as libertarian, but are described by just about everyone else as right wing.

Toby Young is a cunt and I hope he dies[1] a slow and painful death and he's definitely on what the UK would describe as the right.

[1] People may think this is a bit strong but he has repeatedly called for eugenics, so what's good for the goose.
Gandi is fine. Their domains are slightly more expensive than others.
Why are you concerned about search engine privacy but also happy to have a robotic vacuum that likely sells maps of and data about your home (such as Roomba does)? Seems to invalidate your point about convenience over purity a little bit.
I'd also love a recommendation here!
It's not automatically selfish.

It's not selfish if you have a stronger need to keep the job for a non-selfish reason, and therefore you need to keep a good enough working relationship with the boss, by doing what they ask.

An example of a non-selfish reason to keep the job anyway would be you having a job being essential to the wellbeing of people you care for. Food, shelter, medicine etc. In some situations, someone might die if you refuse to do as told at work, because your income and benefits are paying for their surgery or something.

There's going to be a ethical line beyond which "no" is the right answer, but for many people "put a dark pattern in the sign-up page" doesn't cross the line into selfishness, it only crosses into an ethical dilemma, a balancing act.
The press kit section of the page says it has AI opponents. At first this didn't seem remarkable to me since it's a standard feature of most chess games.

But, how would that work? Would they have to create a new AI implementation? An off-the-shelf chess AI presumably doesn't understand the best strategies for multiverses. Unless there is some trick to apply an off-the-shelf AI to this.
If you are curious on some excellent YouTube videos on drainage techniques and various way to install them. I highly recommend the Apple Drains channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/appledrains

For example, I had no idea that there is such a thing as an outdoor sump pump which can be used to pump water uphill if your drainage issues are below street level. That doesn't apply to my case since you can't use these in my town but none of the landscapers I've spoken to even mentioned it.

The host is very likeable as well.
It doesn't matter if we would have survived as a species or not. Our great achievements can be summarized as a continuum of suffering done in the name of I. Even now a billion people live in the most abject daily torment of survival while the richest of us pack our noses with a stimulant that destroys whole swaths of the natural world.

You're confusing the relative world with awakening and then making it out for wisdom. All of man's great achievements can be summarized in a few passages from "Ozymandias": gone tomorrow.

'Even if a whole mountain were made of gold, not double that would be enough to satisfy one person. Know this and live accordingly'

We should absolutely make out for wisdom what is wise and point out unskillful pursuits where we see them. Buddhist teachings aren't a postmodernist mash-up of whatever you like. It can sound rude, even condescending but it's not what you make it out to be. The suttas are there to offer wisdom, Right Understanding.

Practicing various meditation techniques your whole life sounds like you haven't made up your mind yet or haven't seen one through to the end. I know exactly how that feels and I'd trade the decade I spent sampling for depth in any one.

If linux wouldn't require you to send patches upstream that would be great. Last time I checked the font rendering was off. So Linux seems to need to catch up to system 7 maybe? Certainly it's lagging osx 10.0.

I agree. I'm more just pointing out that it's non-obvious what "fair" even is.

Although I do like the standard that was suggested in the Wisconsin case, the one that Kennedy chickened out on before he retired. Sorry, I forget the details - something about minimizing wasted votes.
I experienced this a couple days ago with porkbun.com .I wanted to register a domain and the checkout failed. Shortly after that the whois showed that it had been registered and populate with porkun nameservers. Extremely infuriating...
Ah, yeah I thought it said businesses plural.
Are you asking Namecheap to take unilateral action against domain registrations with no due process? As a Namecheap customer, I do not support such behavior, nor is it their mandate as a registrar.

If the problem is with mobile provider spam filtering and where the sites are hosted, that is where the abuse issue should be dealt with, with continued complaints to regulatory bodies (ie, the FTC and the FCC).
I'm on the same page as you, just waiting for RDNA2 and Zen3 to drop so I can be free from the garbage nvidia software. I know AMD has had driver issues but at this point idc, I've come to associate nvidia with spyware between this and their awful VM detection practices.

I just checked-out gandi.net, and I found their page in defense of No Bullshit. What a nice page to see amidst the many other sites filled with Bullshit.

You wouldn't have to mingle them if they're different types, in fact that would probably be one of the worst design decisions you could make.

In the DOD version you'd create a new record containing 3 arrays instead of 2 (x,y,z) and write or extend your functions to support this new record type.

In the OOP version (NB: blech, it's not OOP, it's just records) you'd also need new functions to support the new type.

There are definitely benefits and drawbacks to both approaches, but what you've written is not a drawback for structure-of-arrays or a benefit for array-of-structures.
Anything similar like this exists for Mac?
It actually works well for me since I mostly want to listen to similar mixes while working so my work Youtube account is pretty spot on.
Exactly. Getting in good shape is incredibly hard for most and people who haven't done this don't realize just how important the routine and having the freedom to maintain it is. How important is unrestricted access to food and gym is. "Go jog outside" is a joke of a suggestion when you've been into fitness for a long time and understand what it takes.
Oh, I get it, the frame of reference "floats in the sea or flies". I was trying to picture a "sea of flies".
I’ve only just read about it thanks to your comment, but I’m wondering what advantage it has over just mounting a file system to share between your VM And host OS and just running commands via SSH.
It's missing KLEE: https://klee.github.io/. KLEE is a symbolic execution engine, which is effectively just a fancy (and useful) approach to static analysis. KLEE is perennially a few releases behind LLVM, but still going strong, apparently.
3DS is an excellent platform to learn Japanese games. I fully recommend it.

I think it's an amazing time, and the games will stand the test of time just like the original mario series because the content is rich and great vs having to fall back on pushing systems & I/O to the max.

Nothing recently has given me as much joy as to replay N64 classics on the 3DS with better graphics, added gameplay and 100% solely in Japanese after originally growing up with them as they were released in the USA/English.

The context and general idea helped alot to drive me to replay the games and relearn vocabulary in a different language. And how the games are targeted at a young audience makes full kana or furigana available, with settings to use just Kanji if you want is fantastic.

It's something that every other learning app doesn't have for Japanese - but then again when you learn more languages you don't really go for the cultural angle, you do it to communicate and use culture as a reference point.
Namecheap is the only registrar I can really recommend. Gets out of your way in most cases, has a very competent support for the other cases
Off the shelf techniques for zero sum games of perfect knowledge would work though. Minimax and Monte Carlo Tree Search and reinforcement learning from self-play. Leela has been adopted to play both go and chess, I suspect it would be practical to adopt it to play any game.
Namecheap is so much better than godaddy.

Interface : just give me the records. I don't want to buy more stuff. Somehow namecheap lets me but the same extras like email, without badgering me. Godaddy is just ads ads ads and interfaces to sell stuff to people who aren't tech savvy.

Squatting: this definitely happens with godaddy, like the OP says. Never use them, it's a disgusting practice.

I use namecheap for dozens of domains. I only used godaddy once because I couldn't get the tld on namecheap.
Words can cause trauma. A lasting, debilitating effect. Even changes to brain structure (PTSD etc) and long term disability.

I regard that as a harm.

Note that "cause harm" does not always imply "blame".

It does imply cause and effect though, suggesting "responsibility".
You can, but the issue here is the use case and performance this is meant to be used by streamers hence any performance impact on the game must be neglibible.

The normal ALU's aka CUDA Cores and the Tensor cores on RTX cards can run concurrently without blocking, without require context switching and for the most part outsides of the register file / cache in that SM and GPC they aren't competing for resources.

Sure no model runs only on the Tensor Cores and probably requires some generic ALU usage but optimized models only require a fraction of their execution time to involve those standard cores.

Optimizing their model to work on a multiple generation of GPUs with different compute capabilities (if you look at CUDA compute you have native/multiple instruction operations constantly being switched in and out) without having a severe impact on performance that would lead to "OMG RTX VOICE MAKES YOUR GAME LAG!!!!!" posts on social media and streamers trashing the software and the brand isn't easy.

So you launch it first on hardware where you can guarantee that it would run well without adverse impact then release it to a broader audience with a huge disclaimer often to showcase just how better your new hardware is like in the case of DXR ray tracing which now runs on essentially all DX12 GPUs from NVIDIA.

People in general are clueless to how GPUs actually work, and they tend to sensationalize everything (especially when it comes to Team Green vs Team Red) just look at the nonsense that came out after Crytek demoed their "ray tracing" on VEGA people were basically saying RTX is a scam.

The reality is quite different, Crytek used a hybrid model, they weren't running GI via ray tracing they were using SVOGI and have implemented very rudimentary ray tracing for reflections with heavy limits on how many BVH instances you can have at the same time and at what range objects can fall into the BVH.

So yes it can run for example on the Xbox One X but at <30 fps, with low quality SVOGI and upto 5 objects being able to be reflected at any time via RT.

NVIDIA isn't limiting homegrade cards artificially, FP64 units aren't there in the smaller dies, AMD used to do it during the days of GCN as their big dies still had full FP64 ALUs.

The only feature that NVIDIA has been currently limiting on their GPUs is SR-IOV support which what would you know is also disabled on AMD consumer cards ever since SR-IOV support was introduced with VEGA.

Even the "it's-definitely-not-the-founder-edition" VEGA FE which was quickly re-marketed at launch as a prosumer card despite the fact that it's driver support was essentially killed within 6 months which was sold at a huge markup (compared to Vega 56/64 which came later) didn't enable it.

Posts like this is why we can't get good stuff, because people will always complain why something doesn't work and then go into conspiracy theories when something does work only on newer hardware.
I never knew that but that IS a cool trick.

Ask HN: I suddenly can't see any Amazon reviews
On any Amazon product page it's referring to reviews as "ratings", like in "202 ratings | 9 answered questions"

Clicking on "ratings" does nothing and scrolling down doesn't reveal any reviews, just the star rating. The same happens regardless of if I am logged in or if I am in a fresh incognito session.

I guess this is a bug with a release (or an A/B test?), it was showing reviews normally last night.

No, really, it is not. In your own example you're already jumping to testing a hypothesis. "Scientific method" isn't just a vague phrase, there literally is a specific method of steps to go through.

The first step is Observation. Sometimes split out into Observation, then Research.

Then comes the formulation of a hypothesis.

After that is constructing a way to test the hypothesis. Not to prove it wrong, not to prove it right, but to test it.

There's more after that, it's an iterative process and a single test of a hypothesis isn't always definitive, often it is not. But "Prove me wrong" is not the starting point.

Solar panels aren't the only way to generate energy using the sun. You can build a concentrated solar farm (see: https://edition.cnn.com/2019/02/06/motorsport/morocco-solar-...) which uses mirrors and salt to produce up to 580mw of power, with a cost of just under $1bil.

My neighbor heats their pool using solar, it's just a bunch of tubes that cycle water over their roof. They got rid of their gas heater. Given that most backyard pools are used in the summer, why can't we swap these to using solar?
> YouTube recommendations can be delightful, but they can also be dangerous. The platform has a history of recommending harmful content — from pandemic conspiracies to political disinformation — to its users, even if they’ve previously viewed harmless content.

What part of this is untrue?

And again, you're saying "getting rid of it" without evidence. It's a study. It does not mention banning anything, anywhere. If the argument is that they should not study this because it might lead to bans in the future then you're being pro-censorship in order to promote anti-censorship which doesn't make a whole lot of sense.

In addition to immunity based on T cells, the HIT depends on how individuals are networked. The original 60-70% estimates were based on 100% of people being vulnerable and also a random distribution of individuals interacting. In reality a small fraction of the population will have many interactions and once they become immune those transmission vectors away and the average R number drops. So based on the latest research plus observations of the worst hit places, 20-25% seems plausible.
