In Python:

{'x': 9007199254740993}

In my browser's JavaScript console:

{x: 9007199254740992}

(Consider what happens if you try to send a tweet's ID, a perfectly normal number like 205052027259195393, through JSON. Or if you try to serialize a stack trace on a 64-bit system, where addresses are also perfectly normal numbers.)
Because when you try to explain to HN that things are rigged and that "competitors" at higher levels know each other personally because even their kids attend the same schools gets you flagged, downvoted and warned, there is really no point in doing so anymore.

One friend once told me that he would see 100% red down to 70% red as the same thing.

So after certain point, the intensity of red didn't matter.

Summer studies show that colorblind person don't get fooled by camuflage.

Anedoctaly, another friend got a LCD tv with a red dot in the middle of the screen. He sold the tv to the first friend because he had no problem with that dot...
You can always do that, defining the schema in the client to produce sensible checks, even with JSON. The problem is that wherever the spec is underspecified is another place where two different clients can deserialize differently, and both be correct.

And the problem with stringly typed systems is that everything is underspecified
OK. But not caring about how we get into no-win situations is exactly how we get into no-win situations.

Or perhaps in a different light, neither do the people who would've died if we had chosen a different branching path with negative consequences. There is some implication that there was a better outcome easily available and that is not clear at all. There should've been one, but there wasn't necessarily.
I’m pretty sure the only places where being monolingual is common, are the countries where English is the dominant language. If you look at the whole population of the world, it’s more common to know more than one language than it is to know only one. If you’re born in a place that speaks a language other than English, then learning English is very common, and a lot of places (like Singapore) have multiple common languages, where people often speak more than one. Singaporeans will tend to speak English, and the language of their ethnic heritage. Plenty of Malaysians speak Malaysian and Chinese or English. Most people in Indonesia speak Indonesian and their local regional language. A lot of people in India speak their regional language and English or Hindi...

I’m not sure it’s a sign of social status in English speaking countries. The wealthier you are, the more you can just expect everybody around you to speak English. Where I live, the most common language I’d expect somebody to know besides English is Spanish, and the local Spanish speaking population isn’t known for their excessive wealth.
> In recent history, the Panama Papers have comprised one of the largest and most influential leaks detailing information on offshore entities, company officers and financial (and legal) intermediaries, and has led to a global exposé of corruption and tax evasion. A systematic analysis of this information can provide valuable insights into the structure and properties of these entities and the relations between them.

OK, I get that. What are the insights?

In the Summary it says:

> We iterate that, while we certainly did not expect small-world phenomena to emerge in all networks, the fact that it did not emerge in even a single network, and also that the distribution of connected components (as a function of size measured in terms of number of nodes) seems to follow a clear and consistent trend throughout, suggest a similar fundamental difference compared to small-world networks.

Um, what does that tell us about corruption and tax evasion? Can somebody please explain in layman's terms?
Wait, really? scrambles to check woah...

I've never seen typed yaml, this is wild.

Can't say I love the notation, but indeed that is type annotations. I guess neither "yaml type hints" nor "yaml type annotations" are the right query. Had to search explicitly for "yaml tags".

How people maintained consistent culture--judging from cave paintings--across tens of millennia and thousands of miles, in and out of ice ages, is an enduring mystery.

There really is no shortage of mysteries, although archaeologists don't like to talk about them.

That Denisovan bracelet from tens of millennia ago, with a hole drilled by a method not reinvented until historical times, is a new mystery.

Miles and miles of undersea construction off India, on seabed last exposed more than 7000 years ago.

The very oldest known stone construction, in both Egypt and Peru, used the very biggest chunks of rock, often 50 tons and more, (apparently) before even pulleys. Blocks get progressively smaller and clunkier in later work.

Egyptian sculpture made of basalt and granite, smoothed to a satin finish. Basalt boxes, 50 tons and more, with perfectly right-angled and smooth interior cuts, without tool marks.

I'm not saying it's aliens, because... why the hell would aliens care about rocks? But people were doing things that we don't understand, and cannot reproduce with the tools they should have had.

There is a great deal more to learn about the prehistoric past than we have even begun to get a handle on.
One weird trick I use is to listen to a particular kind of music. The genre isn't important. Neither is the content. What's important is that I've listened to that same music while experiencing a flow state in the past.

Just as music attached to a time and place can make us remember how we felt back then, music attached to memories of deep work can make us feel more focused. I don't have any sources to back this up. It's just my personal experience.

> Coffee prices are based on an outdated model. For some reason, the cost of labor is the elephant in the room. No one “knows” the true cost of production.

Marxist Labor Theory of Value, look it up.

Do you plan to tell your coffee farmer customers how much they should pay you because only you know the amount and cost of your labor? I hope not. That would be command economy if not neo-colonialism.

Neo-Colonialism would be to deny them the freedom to do business they way they want. They still have that freedom. They don't have to deal with IBM if that doesn't help them get better prices or whatever it is they are after.

Lear a bit about economics from free market economists and junk that Marxist and Keynesian nonsense.

Seems like something that could easily have causation going the other way (or having a common cause) no? E.g. perhaps people who end up having cognitive impairment stop regularly speaking both languages because it's harder to do so when suffering cognitive decline.

The mass difference between humans and viruses is something like 10^19.

So if you take the naive approach -- which is wrong, because charges live on surfaces, not in volumes -- you would want the person to have about a coulumb of charge to ensure that 1 extra electron was allocated to each virus particle.

Whether or not 1 electron per virus is enough is a separate question, but that gives you a lower bound -- if you are allocating, say, 0.1 electrons, only 10% of your virus particles will have a charge.

Edit: so, given the capacitance of humans as 200 pF, that would be 5 gigavolts?

What makes you think they are?

People can be justifiably afraid of the government without doing anything wrong, especially if the government has a track record of abusing tools at its disposal, enforcing unjust laws, or failing to maintain a good balance of civil rights (such as to peaceful protest - not the same as rioting) needed in a healthy democracy.

I’m currently switching to Vyvanse after 10+ years using adderall. There is no generic formulation (at least in the us) because it came to market in 2007. I’ve had several issues with inconsistent adderall from various generic manufacturers and that issue simply isn’t possible right now with Vyvanse. The downside is, it’s $400 a month without insurance, and $100 a month with good insurance.

Because it’s basically dextroamphetamine with a lysine molecule taped on, the psychoactive effects are really similar, but I’d describe it as cleaner if that makes sense. The “killer feature” of the enzymatic release is it’s basically a fixed timing, whereas with XR formulations of Adderall you have a 50/50 blend of immediate and delayed release 3:1 amphetamines. I believe you are correct, it’s not standardized. This, combined with the acids / bases both hurting overall blood levels (think grapefruit juice) means you just have a wildly inconsistent time over long term use of the medicine. For example, I’ve had pharmacies change generics on me without saying anything, I’ve had an inability to get my preferred generics, and I’ve had days where it’s felt like I took nothing at all. The worst are Nuvo and Mallinckrodt in my experience (IR 10mg 2x/day).

I’ve only been using Vyvanse for a week or so, but I can say it’s a marked improvement for me and the lack of a generic is a huge boon with regards to consistency.
Sorry but employees making top 5% of salaries in the country are not bound by economic necessity to their employer. That argument might have a point in amazon warehouse workers, but not on people that have plenty of job opportunities at other employers as well as self employed.

See “magic pipes” on cruise ships: more or less diverting oil contaminated water by the engine away from the tanks where they’re supposed to be kept and back into the sea because emptying these tanks when docked costs a bit or money that the cruise ship operator would rather keep for themselves. These are illegal and strict records are supposed to be kept so they can be audited and detected. Yet these records are falsified and useless.
Very good list. There have recently been similar posts about what crates to choose. Always followed by discussions about some of the choices.

In professional environments where besides the product time to market and costs are the key points, we don't want to spend time on this kind of discussions and decisionmaking. Or taking risks using libs with 0.x versions.

It really is a pitty that the decision to keep essential stuff out of the standard lib is limiting Rusts usage in professional environments. Developer resoureces are another reason, but this is a chicken egg problem. The standard lib issue can be solved much easier.

SOAP was and is an epic disaster, so that hardly seems like a refutation. The known way to embed an entire XML doc into a SOAP message was to use CDATA, which isn't a general solution because it means the embedded doc can't have ]]> in it anywhere. You could also base64-encoded the included doc.

Both of these solutions and all other known solutions to this problem are, as I'm sure you can see, just awful.

You can't just paste XML in XML because of the <?xml?> thing, because of entities, and because of half a dozen other misfeatures of XML.

ASCII has always had separator and message delineation characters [1][2] that can be used instead of the CR, LF, SP, TAB, "|", "," etc. They are not "human readable", but are very easy to parse.

They are even UTF-8 transparent and can be easily converted to/from CSV, TSV, PSV, and, with a definition of the equivalent of a "close brace" could allow for a multi-level hierarchy.

Just to clarify (for my own edification) If you look at the colors #FF0000 (red) and #00FF00 (green) does one look greyish or do they both look like the same color?

I’m sick and tired of this ego protection through projection. These attitudes go nowhere. The CA fires are “wildfires” right? They start in those beautiful golden Californian grassy hills. Imagine if the state leadership took care of that land they own through back-burning to avoid forest destruction. What can the state control today; better land management. Let’s start there and see how far it gets us. Global warming isn’t an overnight fix but land management might.

Is there a reason for that / Is Fauna not production-ready?

Why not? Apple used to sell servers. It could easily sell its chips to Azure or GCP to compete with Amazon’s Graviton chips.

It’ll help Apple cement their dev tools as industry standard, it’ll further amortize overall dev costs by increasing volumes, people can develop better algorithms with their custom hardware accelerators for ML and etc, it’s a great way to fight the current anti-trust cases against Apple.

There are some pretty good reasons for Apple to sell their chips to 3rd parties.

There will always be offshore entities with strong rule of law (Cayman) because multinational companies need a neutral ground to settle disputes with competent judges without the whims of each company’s home base screwing it up.

That’s the most generous and ethical explanation for the continued support and existence of offshore judication. The unpopular reason is that offshore countries offer lower taxes and favorable regulation. As someone who believes in the smallest possible state and enjoys the benefits of offshore countries (as do Facebook, Google, and Apple which use a combination of the Netherlands, Ireland, Bermuda, and Cayman in complex corporate structures) I am sympathetic to this argument. Although my friends say I am a corporate stooge!
It’s not clear yet, since we’ve no idea if there will be a 3080 Ti. The 3090 throws out the naming convention from the past few generations, leaving it a bit of a mystery. Nvidia may do as they did with the 1080 Ti: not release till nearly a year after the 1080 (whereas 2080 & 2080 Ti were launched just a week apart).

Given the 3090 is not too much faster than 3080, it seems there may not be room there. But then again, the 1080 Ti was as fast as the Titan X. So…yea.
For me, it's all about doing less. Remove all the cruft and see what happens. You will find out if it's working if you start missing the flow of time. When you are in the flow, there is no past and no future. You are just into "now" but not in a stressed way. You just keep doing what you're doing until your body says otherwise.

I love that this exist, but the core problem with remote whiteboards is that everyone can write something legible when using a marker on a whiteboard, but it's way harder with a mouse/trackpad.

It would be nice to have some features that made it easier - the features I really miss from apps I use to create diagrams are basic shapes like rectangles and the ability to select and move/resize/copy existing drawing.

Witeboard is great name BTW.
Not enough to make up the difference. Definitely not as much as coal or fossil fuel for example. Sure, they’ll burn, but not hot enough. Most domestic waste has a calorific value of not more than 16 MJ/Kg, and you need at least 15 MJ/Kg for ignition. Meaning, you need to add some other fuel to make it burn. Coal for comparison gives off 15-30 MJ/Kg, so it’s right on the edge there. Industrial waste is a different ball game, but then industrial waste has lots more toxic stuff.
