I'm an old dog. If I'm honest, Rails is the only thing I know (... I barely know a lot of things).

Counter do DHH's and core Rails' pattern, I'm thin models and Service Objects (GASP the horror!) to handle business logic. Models become DAO-y.

I had a lot of mental trouble handling different use cases for the same object. Like if an Admin vs User updates a post. The notification chains are completely different. So now my service objects look like: Post::UpdateByAdmin < Post::Base vs Post::UpdateByUser < Post::Base.

So, in general, my concerns are pretty thin. Like the post only handle data grabs. Even then, I'm guilty of doing what the post says from time to time especially when I couldn't see far enough into the future.
>Imagine what Spotify’s staff would do if they tried to land one of the biggest conservative podcasters?

Bawl their eyes out and chant protest mantras outside of their office building?
Yep, I meant Gaim. Damn you, autocorrect!
Maybe they're trying to promote a move from Matlab (which is close to exclusively used in a lot of academic fields) to Python, and not to Julia. Or maybe that's too far? Either way yeah I also find it slightly weird that this was somewhere in Nature.
Yeah, I don't know how it's going to work. He's said previously on his show that he only signed the deal with Spotify because they were going to be hands off and not control who he could talk to, including Alex Jones. As soon as his past episodes were uploaded to Spotify, it was clear that someone was mislead/lied to. Some episodes weren't uploaded to Spotify, like Alex Jones and one of his friends who's a flat earther, but also some comedians that got cancelled by twitter mobs.
Every one of those stores provided support for the products they sold so calling it meaningless is ridiculous.

Last time I checked I needed to use DOSBox to be able to run the majority of old DOS games and apps. So much for backward compatibility, I guess.
Hi Ted, a query, I see godaddy registered domains being available on my O365's outlook custom domains for email, is it possible that namecheap would do something like that as well?

Line 8 of Table 9 is misleading out of context. If you dig into the report itself, it's calculated based on a hypothetical chip with the same number of transistors for each process (Table 7). For example, the 90nm process is listed as yielding "0.7" chips per wafer, which is obviously nonsensical. Line 8 would be more appropriately described as "cost per 90.7 billion transistors", if I am reading the report right.
I didn't think you could even run code not in an LPAR on a zSeries machine anymore. At which point you still have all the MMUs (and their associated TLBs) turned on.
It's just like you're running a unikernel rather than something like Linux, so you should be able to replicate that on commodity hardware for far cheaper.

>it costs 3-10x what the equivalent generating capacity in renewables would cost

Except renewables can't actually replace fossil fuels. They need baseload provided by fossil fuels to be viable. They are also defuse energy sources, and so require huge surface area and lots of materials for collectors - not great for a growing world, both in population and per capita energy needs. Oh, they are variable across days, seasons and inter-year periods, but there is no battery technology coming that is able to store even enough power to a moderately sized city for a few minutes, much less the weeks it would need.

>And when we get to that last 5-10%

Try 50%.
Ah yes...the efficiencies never stop coming when you forced to skirt government mandates about tech they know almost nothing about.

I have war stories for days about all times companies I worked for had to have customers pull DLLs from 3rd party sites in order to comply with completely political mandates.

Ask HN: Why do social networks always move toward unusable UIs?
I remember back in the mid 2000s, Digg was all the rage.

Then they botched a redesign and became unusable.

A couple years ago, Reddit decided to do a complete redesign and became similarly unusable.

Recently, Facebook pushed a redesign that seems similarly hostile to users.

I ditched Digg for Reddit when they wrecked their UI.

I stopped using Reddit when they did their redesign.

I've been a pretty consistent Facebook user for nearly 15 years now. I really feel like this redesign might be it for me.

Thoughts?
Theoretically Julia is better for scientific computing, the only issue is its package ecosystem isn't as mature as Python's. But it's growing incredibly fast and there have already been libraries available for a few years that would be really impractical to write and maintain at such a level in C++ for Python. I assume that for science at least Julia will catch on a lot.
I know it's against HN policy to complain about downvotes, but I think your response is not covered under that rule in that you are looking to learn, not to vent. You have my upvote, at least.

Again, I’m just playing by your rules — look up the top 10 school districts in the Pittsburgh metro area, and look up housing on Zillow and Redfin, it’s really not hard to find decent housing under $250,000.

> Not a lot of young people looking for good jobs are going to want to live in a suburb with older people and families

You’re moving the goalposts. You started off talking about school districts — not a lot of young people care about that. If you want affordable housing outside of nice school districts, and not in the suburbs, you’ll find plenty of that in the Pittsburgh city center, also.

The fundamental argument is that if you earn the median income, and you need to live in a good school district, it is more than easy to own a home and build equity in property — you just have to sacrifice being able to live near dim sum and access to “Hamilton”. If you don’t care about school districts, you can find a place with a short commute from work. You might even be able to get some dim-sum action. Trade-offs!

> Pretty small, 2br, 1 bath

Are young people looking for 4BR’s? I seriously think you misunderstand what the “median home” means — it’s not a McMansion. Also 2BR is large enough for a couple with one child.

> Go ahead, move to Braddock for that 50k house

Yeah but...you don’t have to do that. You can move to a far nicer neighborhood in the Pittsburgh area for $150k. It all depends on which trade-offs you’re willing to make given your personal circumstances. $50k is many standard deviations below the median, we’re not talking about that. You don’t have to be a FAANG engineer to earn the median income, especially at the household level.

> But you cherry picked a value WELL BELOW THE MEDIAN IN HAMPTON

No, I showed you the aggregate median home value in the greater Pittsburgh metropolitan area on 3 different sources now, and then made a cursory sweep of the current state of the housing market to corroborate the aggregate metrics. It was pretty easy to do. The data doesn’t lie. That’s far more than you’ve done in this discussion: un-verified personal anecdotes devoid of any citation or sources. It’s honestly pretty remarkable.
Then go show the leading world manufacturer how it’s done by opening your own fab and turning out billions of chips. Even with 100,000% markup from your $5 cost basis, you’ll have customers lined up for the next decade if you could really pull it off.

We won’t hold our breath waiting to hear back on your success... ;)
Everyone is entitled to their own opinion but not their own facts.

Rogan is mostly an opinion guy but he has spread covid disinformation and hosted guests like Alex Jones who say things like Sandy Hook was staged. That's not harmless self-expression. Spotify is under no obligation to host anyone's content and certainly not required to pay $100M for content that is detrimental to society.
Not sure I fully understand. Can you elaborate? We don't currently sell O365.

I’ll grant your final comment on #3 but on the others I disagree.

If CA was requesting that the federal govt do controlled burns to better protect their citizens from wildfires, and the fed govt refused, then you would have a point, but from the research I’ve done (and I cited 3 random examples above) that’s not what happened. In fact it’s the opposite where organizations which controlled the land desperately wanted to perform prescribed burns, but were prevented from doing so because of local regulations.

As far as #1 being a political judgment: That you think #1 is false and 2 and 3 are true, one can guess how you feel about a host of other political issues, most have which have absolutely nothing to do with forest management.
One of the fun things I notice whenever the topic of renewables comes up is the assumption that the world around you is hospitable :). We have human populations living in areas where turning off the energy is a miserable experience, in both directions.

It’s autumn in Saskatchewan right now. The nights are getting cool enough that we’ve, sadly, had to start the furnace. Within a few months, we’re likely to start getting temperatures that drop to -40 for sustained periods, and drop to around 8h of daylight per day. Power outages in the winter are a very big deal.
Certainly something we can look into.

This would be beautiful, but we need to be able to see the night sky first. Having moved to a large city from a tiny one, no one notices/even cares to look up here. there isnt much to see, I think that makes it meaningless to those who havent stared at a full clear night sky, no light pollution for miles. I'm jealous even with all the comforts you get here, you can't see that image our ancestors got to stare at almost every night(cloud factor).
The $100M comes from Spotify's broad appeal to sensible listeners of all walks of life. It's why all major media are terrified of scandal. There are niches for every type of opinion but there's a reason you make more money working for Spotify or Netflix or network TV than Infowars.
Considering Nature labelled it as a review article and still published it, it does seem like Nature is an applicable venue for publishing a paper like this.

I’m a sort of machine learning scientist applying and explaining classical ML models on tabular data to generate insights, and have done lots of research on disciplines in data science.

I think by now, we should recognize that data science is just the broad field of extracting insights from data, encompassing

- traditional statistics
- all kinds of exploratory and other data analytics
- machine learning

... where the primary goal is, again, extracting insights from data.

On the other hand, if you are building something, eg products or data pipelines, you are less of a (data) scientist and more of an engineer.

Sometimes this may overlap, eg, you train some models to get insights (data science) but then you also productionize and deploy it (ML engineer).

In bigger orgs, these should probably be separate teams.

Regarding how common the switch is, I dunno. Personally, I think that increasingly the more serious teams and companies are recognizing that data science is a bubble (often just renamed analytics) and what has been, is, and will continue to be more important, is engineering. Eg data engineering to tame your data and ML engineering to build and deploy products. Data scientists are in the middle or on the side to develop POCs, run experiments, and help action any insights, in close collaboration with product and business.

So that’s my take on this.
Not just carbon, but plastics and all kinds of pollution. Even the clean up of recyclables like glass and metal should be paid for upfront rather thank asking society to pickup the tab after the fact.

The article is about an internal employee group raising concerns that the leadership team decided in favor of hosting the episodes. I’d guess the group would have similar opinions about the Eminem songs.

Most of its employees job have nothing about politics. They imagined such relevancy themselves to create a greater significance/satisfaction from the daily mundane job.
I guess they're focusing on the JRE podcast because it's so popular, but they already host podcasts that you'd think their "LGBTQAI+/ally" employees would be up in arms about. Just a quick look through the recommended podcasts in the web player, and I see Ben Shapiro's podcast on there, who has much more extreme views on LGBT rights than Joe Rogan does.
Wrong my issue is with the recent liberal trend that a humans race, creed, sexual orientation, religious preference, outward appearance, etc are an individuals defining characteristic. And if you don't conform to the bucket they want to place you based on that identity they have created for you that you will be cancelled. It's extremely polarizing and destabilizing to society.
The same is true for the ancient pre-contact inuit which is probably the closest example we have to a carnivorous population.

As much as I loved this book when first reading it, it is riddled with errors and a lot of it has been refuted. Not to say it isn't a great read, it is, just take it with a very large grain of salt.
Earlier you said the max file TTL is 1 day. That's brief enough that it seems the only meaningful action you could take much of the time would be to log the incident and report it to the proper authorities.

Between the short TTL and E2E encryption, I'm struggling to think of any legal obligations you would have in most western jurisdictions. Perhaps logging in some places? Even the DMCA permits more than 24 hours to respond to a takedown notice.
Highly doubt this was intentional. We get pricing from the registry. What likely happened here is that the registry reclassified this as a premium and our support wrongly quoted the new tier to you even though it wasn't relevant since it was a renewal. Sorry you had this experience. It was likely an honest mistake.
You need to check your sources or your math, likely both.
One thing is free speech and another is giving a platform to dubious characters for them to promote their views unchallenged. What's the risk? you might be smart enough to know better but other's will use Rogan's vouching of X personality to validate their view points "well he was invited to Rogan's show so he must be important and must be listened to! have YOU been featured in Rogan's show?". I'll remind you that a good portion of the population doesn't even think vaccines work and that they do damage, don't think wearing masks help, believe in 'staged false flag' events to the point of bullying victims. The internet has allowed anyone to become a 'soft journalist' but completely ignoring what made journalism work, ethics (depending on the org, of course). See related (specially points 4 & 5): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Journalism_ethics_and_standard...

Honestly I expect that as time goes and people wisen up, the more serious and legit a personality is the less likely they will be to accept an invite to that show until it is just bro-ey comedians and controversial personalities that need a steady flow of more supporters so they will say yes to the opportunity to expose their ideas unchallenged. Controversies sell well and Rogan is aware of that, at the end of it he only cares about growing his wealth and not freedom of speech.

BTW, I believe almost no one wants to change the amendments and remove freedom of speech. Those characters will still have the means to communicate their ideas and will be protected by the law, matter fact I myself have donated to ACLU who have defended the KKK in the court of law for the higher purpose of defending freedom of speech and rightly so. See https://www.aclu.org/press-releases/aclu-em-defends-kkks-rig...

I'm assuming fans of Rogan will be happy to read my comment since as Rogan promotes, we should give a platform to anyone or any idea and let people decide by themselves. Or that doesn't apply to his dissenters?
What's the alternative to sharing logic across ActiveRecord models?
> If he were, then he wouldn't support government regulation to reduce CO2 production.

I'm not sure I follow the logic here. If you view climate change as an imminent and catastrophic threat, I think it's pragmatic rather than hypocritical to use existing regulatory powers to help solve the issue, while simultaneously arguing that it shouldn't be necessary to have centralized power in the first place.

And libertarian socialism (and anarchism in general) isn't unilaterally opposed to government; it just insists that power (monetary or political) be decentralized. I expect that most libertarian socialists recognize this is a big leap from our present situation, and so start by tackling what they see as the biggest problems first (which may indeed be corporate rather than political power).

I'll let Chomsky speak for himself; here he describes the core of anarachist thinking:

"[Anarchist thinking is] generally based on the idea that hierarchic and authoritarian structures are not self-justifying. They have to have a justification. So if there is a relation of subordination and domination, maybe you can justify it, but there’s a strong burden of proof on anybody who tries to justify it. Quite commonly, the justification can’t be given. It’s a relationship that is maintained by obedience, by force, by tradition, by one or another form of sometimes physical, sometimes intellectual or moral coercion. If so, it ought to be dismantled. People ought to become liberated and discover that they are under a form of oppression which is illegitimate, and move to dismantle it."

> That is something to consider when judging his claim to be against authoritarian government. It seems he thinks government is only authoritarian when it does things he dislikes, but it's not authoritarian when it orders everybody to obey rules that he approves of.

This may very well be the case; I'd need to do some research to (potentially) refute it.

> We call this "hypocrisy".

I like the point you are bringing up; the views of public figures deserve close scrutiny and criticism. This line strikes me as a bit condescending, though.
It's all a matter of taste of course, but it's hard to take the statement that Britain go the best cheese in the world seriously. If we only look at Europe: France, Italy, Switzerland are a lot more famous for their cheeses than Britain.
The fact that almost all British cheeses are pasteurized is a clear indication that having great cheeses is not part of the British mainstream culture. That being said, there is also some high quality cheeses in Britain, but in my opinion, a lot less than in those other europeans country, by production amount and number of cheese type.

Don't underestimate the impact this has on getting funding or even just tenure/etc recognition for working on numpy. I'm in industry these days, but coming from the academic side, it's _really_ hard to get recognized for building the underlying infrastructure that tons of people use. I've built and maintained libraries that are used in a ton of publications, but was always told my work was "utterly and completely useless". It was also always unpublishable, as methods are never publishable in my field. Numpy has (obviously) vastly more respect and impact than my work, but the general problem remains.

Articles like this are a _huge_ deal for that reason. It's an immense delayed recognition for over a decade of work from a lot of folks.
