S7 was designed for serious computer music, and comes out of CCRMA at Stanford. While I like Python (I did it professionally for 10+ years!) generally speaking in computer music embedding Python is a non-starter because of the GIL - it does not play well in apps where you have thread and performance issues, which in real time computer music, is basically a given. S7 on the other hand is very easy to use in that context, you can turn the garbage collector on and off, and have multiple instances in different threads with no issue. I really like Python, but have totally given up on it for music applications. There exist Python music libraries, but honestly, no one who really knows that field uses it in apps, though they may use it as a preprocessor for score data.

Honestly, that sounds like a lawsuit waiting to happen, unfortunately. Just one person getting sick, even if it wasn't from your potato, could ruin a good time.
I've used Type Faster and Sublime Text to achieve something like this but instead of books I've used articles/tutorials/documentation or articles in another language. In Type Faster I was creating new lessons with article I wanted to read. In Sublime Text I've used two panels - on left side I had article on right it was my typing space. While Type Faster shows you what word you have to type right now Sublime doesn't so I had to memorize as much words I wanted to type to avoid looking back and forth between panels. This is also useful when learning new language, if you are using Duolingo you most likely focus on speaking/reading/pronouncing words and not on writing so retyping articles in that language is very good method to memorize words.

All politics at work is bad, says Coinbase. And they would be correct.
I'm productive in bursts as well. I have the feeling that in between bursts things are still computing in the background so it looks like you're not doing anything but the brain is still churning. This type of bursty productivity is very hard to account for in a corporate environment where one's productivity should be accounted for on a daily basis and laid down in cookie cutter time slots. I often wonder whether I have ADHD since I can hyperfocus when Im in a productive burst. Unfortunately/fortunately I don't tick other boxes so I'm in a limbo with the diagnosis
This might be solved by putting the margin on .content and using negative space for full-bleed elements, as in:

.content { width: 65ch; margin: 0 auto }
.content .full-bleed {
width: 100vw;
margin-left: calc((65ch - 100vw) / 2);
}
Even increasing it to 5 people wouldn't solve the problem. The Nobel prize could be awarded at the institution level rather than invidually but I'm sure there'll be objections to that as well.

I love everything about Dramatiq (and am a contributor to the project, and use it in a few prod apps) except for the decision to use actor nomenclature. It makes sense at first glance, but in reality dramatiq is not an actor system. Actors do not live and die and get managed by supervision as they would in an environment like Erlang. Instead, messages just go onto a queue and get popped off by a worker.

I guess as long as you go into it eyes wide open - dramatiq is not an actor framework - you will be a-ok.
This reminds me of scene in Mr Robot, where a non-hacker has been tasked with hacking into FBI network. All she needs to do is plug in a pre-prepared access point and type a few commands.

It’s human factors i.e. being caught by FBI and associated anxiety that add complexity to the situation.

Darlene has to remind her of the simplicity of the task.

This had a big impact on me, as someone who has struggled with anxiety in the past.
The domesticated quail raised for food feels safer when they are in a confined space. Unlike chickens, it is more inhumane if you let them free range. You build the coop area so that it is short enough that they don’t jump when startled. I am not sure there is much to be done about them being loud.

As far as going close to 100% growing your own food, that’s a pretty amazing accomplishment. I acknowledge that it is impractical for everyone to do with at this time.

However, there are cases where people had to do this and found ways to do it:

What's your definition of political?
We will consider a name change when we launch in French-speaking markets. Filon, for example, may be a suitable option.
PS5 is an x86 CPU + AMD RDNA GPU.

PS4 was an x86 CPU + AMD GCN GPU.

A huge amount of games will be portable from the get-go. GCN and RDNA have extremely similar assembly languages.

The only major assembly language change from GCN -> RDNA is DPP / cross-lane operations (kinda like pshufb from x86). But I'm not even sure if the PS4 had those instructions.
I think it _can_ be political to 'do nothing', but that being said, viciously attacking those taking a neutral stance for increasingly tenuous and subjective reasons is also very dangerous.
The magic is knowing when to take a new reference photo, in case someone else walks in, or I drink from a cup of coffee, or hold up an object to the camera. At which point we're almost back to H.264, except it's unclear if that will work without additional training.
Hello, nice work! Unfortunately, since for now I am navigating through my keyboard only (not using a mouse because of lack of batteries) I can't really use it.

I am using linux and chrome with vimium and when I press f (to reveal the links) it doesn't "capture" any links for the books. I also tried it using tab to go to the books and it just jumped over them (!)

I presume you are doing some fancy JS things in the frontend that's why it can't understand the links, however
I think it's a little ironic to not be able to use a practice typing site with only your keyboard :)

Most anyone can learn how to write code, however adding different skills can increase both the quality of what you produce, and the breadth of problems you can solve. You don't "need" to learn things like program complexity, but knowing it can help you write more efficient programs; you don't need to know math, but it helps if you want to work with encryption, and in a way testing, too.

What does that all boil down to? Probably curiosity, practically speaking. If you're genuinely interested in programming, and it's not just about money, status or proving some point, you'll be drawn to learn different things and have different discussions, over the whole course of your career, that will make you a good programmer, rather than just a passible coder.
What about https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_Sentinel_Island ?

IMO all this tree stuff doesn't pass my "finitist efficiency test". I don't think we should choose to work with this these super large exponential numbers just to quotient them out. Better to just us the "Family DAG" from the get-go.

What must be done by real demographers, but never covered in these articles from the general public, is some sort of "outbread---diversity" distribution. There is a clearly a conservation law in that genetic variation at larger scales depends on inbreeding / genetic homogeneity at smaller scales.

While I doubt the phenomenon is scale-free, there is still variation in the possible distributions at every scale. I want to know where humans have lied in that distribution-of-distributions over time. E.g. Europe is very homogeneous but if there was something more egalitarian than federalism would it be even more homogeneous?

My hunch is "no" because most of these Eurasian hierarchical societies had tones of elite man + non-elite women illegitimate children who were denied elite privileges, but I'd still like to see the definitive answer.

It's been eight months! We cannot keep living like this. We know now the largest deaths came from a failure to protect the elderly and misusing nursing home facilities (Michigan, Kirkland/Seattle, NYC). We need to do more to protect the elderly, but other people need be able to assume their own risks again.

Most lockdown restrictions have ended in Ecuador. Florida and Mississippi are opening up. Pennsylvanian had a cord order by Stickman to open up, but it's been stayed pending appeal.

Humanity cannot be put into low power mode like a laptop. We are not cogs in a machine that can be stopped and started at will.

I don't remember the specific editions, but it was a long time ago - long before flex-box and grid were around. Still, back then, people could work magic with CSS using floats and positioning and such, and I couldn't make any sense of it. Maybe it's time to pick up a more up-to-date book on CSS and try again with the modern timesavers.

You can pin to the start menu too.

Windows has basically 2 reliable ways to launch programs. You can pin them somewhere, or you can launch Windows Explorer and navigate to the executable. Some other ways will work most of the time, but not always.

Now... I'd be happy if I find some KDE setting that makes search deterministic, because it's going on the same direction. Navigating the start menu still works all the time, but search is infuriatingly broken.

Thanks for the interesting reply. These are fair points. And I hadn't considered the Citrix products. If you read this then I do have another question. Is there way to disable PV guest support in Xen? IIRC this code represented a good portion of Xen's CVE list. It is an attack surface that we no longer need on modern CPUs. In theory you can just never run a PV guest but the code would still be present?
There are feds in this thread right now. HN needs to list shill tactics in the newbie FAQ or this will become another reddit real soon.

there was another question about this that i responded to in this thread. no local storage is used.

We generate a daily changing identifier using the visitor’s IP address and User Agent. To anonymize these datapoints, we run them through a hash function with a rotating salt.

hash(daily_salt + website_domain + ip_address + user_agent)

This generates a random string of letters and numbers that is used to calculate unique visitor numbers for the day. Old salts are deleted to avoid the possibility of linking visitor information from one day to the next.

While S7 is quite similar to Guile, it is actually a descendent of TinyScheme, not Guile. I looked closely at Guile too before adopting S7 and while it was probably the second easiest to work with as far as embedding, for me the license was the main issue. S7 is liberally licenses (can't recall OTOH if it's MIT or BSD)

Yes. Interestingly, this actually depends on the TLD. Some TLDs do not support changing the nameservers to be in a foreign country, which limits your choices. I learnt that the hard way.

How is 'external relations' not 'public relations'?
R7RS-large is a work in progress, and will not have a single "ratification" event. The work has been divided into editions named after colors, which are cumulative. So far the contents of the Red Edition and the Tangerine Edition have been voted on (anyone interested can vote) and are established; the Orange Edition is currently in preparation.

We use the SRFI process to develop specific components of an edition, which means that all components already have implementations before they are voted on, usually portable ones. See r7rs.org for details.
I had it early February (!). It may have been a different strain, or the antibody tests are garbage (or both), since they reported negative. There's no doubt I (and a number of friends and family) had it. The symptoms are pretty specific. If I didn't have it, then that's even worse, as it means there's a bug out there, with the exact same symptoms, in addition to COVID-19.

Scary bug. I could def see what I had killing people. I had no idea what it was, back then. I just thought I was getting pneumonia, and it broke, just as I was ready to go to hospital. I'm glad I didn't do that, as I would have just infected a whole bunch of vulnerable people.

Since then, I've had a persistent "throat-clearing" thing. Lots of "harUMPHf." My sense of taste never fully recovered, either (that was the weirdest part of it. I've never had that happen before).

I'm really grateful that it wasn't worse. I know some folks that died from it.

Maybe I'm an outlier, but I wouldn't adopt a product unless I knew the business model.

I get the same effect. I think it makes sense, even though I understand your reasoning.

Both the fovea and the rest of the eye perceive more detail when you're closer to an object (the fovea is no different in this respect). When you're close enough, the fovea can perceive a larger area in detail, which we see as motion in that animation.

> our healthcare system would rapidly collapse

This was the entire "15 days to slow the spread" narrative. It's been 8 months. None of our hospitals collapses or were overwhelmed, except in states like Michigan and NYC where governors send the infected back to elder care facilities.

Most hospitals in the US never even got close to peak usages. Many people died because they were afraid to go to the hospitals or couldn't get surgeries they were scheduled for.
You didn't read the article, did you?

Crypto currencies are political! One of the most commonly cited reasons for using it is to avoid government scrutiny and intervention. So how on earth could Coinbase operate a workplace free of politics?

What they mean is that politics they don't want to talk about is bad at work. And they get to decide what those topics are. Which, to be honest, I'm not as wound up about as others are. But "no politics" sounds like a neutral, objective statement. It isn't anything of the sort.
I had the same thoughts.

Sounds nice--but what is the catch?
Chevron may be legally liable but not much beyond that.

My point is that if there is somewhere else that Chevron could have a dramatically better effect on the environment than this “Amazon Chernobyl”, then I don’t see why they wouldn’t fix that instead.
Over the past decades it's been clear that we should provide the consumers of a cryptographic system with everything they might reasonable expect, rather than define narrowly what we'll set out to do and then surprise the consumer when they actually needed more than was delivered.

AEAD is a big example of that, delivering integrity protection for symmetric encryption that too many engineers never even realised their application required. Moving from the Merkle–Damgård construction to Sponge construction for hashes is one way to deliver another unspecified requirement - preventing length extension attacks.

Way too often in cryptography when somebody is sure that they don't need a big complicated system with a bunch of features it turns out actually they just didn't understand their full requirements, and as those become clear all the baggage they were pleased to be rid of turns out to have been necessary all along.
I mean the conclusion ends up being the same. Linguistics has understood for generations that language is formed by communities and shaped by need.

Something like esperanto or an intentionally simplified english will never succeed as a universal language. People will use the words they find useful and create new words or usages as they find them valuable.

Stuff like the academy francaise are just a fantasy relic from before this was widely understood about language.
This is GPT-3 already? So far I have failed to create a coherent story with aidungeon... Just because each sentence taken alone makes sense does not create a useful whole.

Except state actors are currently also using the blanket privacy and security to influence elections. This is a couple of levels above talking crap about your government or buying some drugs.

And if that is to the point that it scares you that they'd lock you up for such behavior then you need better government, not better privacy.
Don't go with Fillon though, you'd have to give the money back :-/
Hmm, that's a bit of a rosy interpretation – the article also says this:

> Half of people in a study in Dublin still had fatigue 10 weeks after being infected with coronavirus. A third were physically unable to return to work.

> Crucially, doctors found no link between the severity of the infection and fatigue.

Study here: https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.07.29.20164293v... 128 participants (49.5 ± 15 years; 54% female)

You're very on-point when it comes to the variance in growing conditions - this is something we definitely wanted to address. I live in a zone 7b (in Northern Canada) - but it's coastal and mild: good luck growing what they do in North Carolina -- another 7b!

Definitely second your recommendation to start with potatoes. They are one of my personal favourites. I grow them pretty much all year long here. As soon as I get a few sprouting in the cupboard, I'll prepare a fresh pot of (home-mixed) soil and plant them in a bucket. This way, I get a bucket of potatoes every month. They store well if you cure them, and require almost no care.

Another one of my low-maintenance favourites are strawberries and chives. I grow them together, and they keep producing babies, so they make for an easy filler for empty space to keep the soil alive for the next planting.
Fingerprinting. I'm working on a competing product which is also open-source. This is how I do it: https://github.com/emvi/pirsch/blob/master/fingerprint.go

Programming as a whole is too wide to have a single answer.

It depends on the problem domain. If you're writing low level code for a microcontroller that might require you to be able to do problemsolving on a whole other level than say writing CSS or arranging pre-built React components in a modern web application. In the same way styling those components might require a very different skillset in terms of taste, A/B testing etc.
Isn't it effectively impossible to prove that a selection was truly random? Because if it correlated to something (so that we could verify that relationship), it's no longer random. Like if I made a random number generator, and it only ever outputs the number 4, I don't think there's any way to validate whether the RNG is broken or if this is just the exceptionally unlikely chance that the number 4 is chosen repeatedly.
All depends how much energy or resources you have at hand to deal with them.

In my experience, 'free' users can often be far more demanding (and draining) to deal with. While this is obviously some value to garnered from them, they can rapidly suck the life and passion out of a system or network, to the detriment of those who have paid, which can then create dissent from actual 'customers'.
