HackerRank's practice questions are pretty good.

The thing is they may not. For all we know, they're hearing about pull requests the first time and just seeing the presenter showing how easy it is to do, by altering/adding a few words, and get a free t-shirt. I think the blame is all on the channel. The least he could've made a proper pull request by fixing an issue. That said, the blame should also go on DO since they could've made hacktoberfest opt-in. Instead they encourage PRs on any public repo.
It makes logical sense that MS would start with Edge, but I can see (for standards compliance) them expanding to work with other browsers too; it would be too great a selling point not to use.
He was lucky that remote work was permitted then.

Surely, there are reasons for all this complexity beyond stylesheet compartmentalization?

That's quite a good reason. It'll be useful for embedding content in pages; if you have complete control over the page then that isn't especially helpful, but if you don't (many teams contributing to a site, accepting user defined content in to a page, enabling an admin to define page styles without breaking important elements, etc) then it's very handy.

My inner pessimist does wonder if Google are driving this because it'll somehow make it harder to block adverts, but for now it looks quite useful in for the obvious use cases.
I could try it again; I moved to the place that I am now about a year ago as I was stuck in a rut but I can do it again and change things up.
The fact that you yourself call it an extreme idea should be a dead giveaway that it probably isn't tenable. When designing a system always be sure to design from the perspective of the losers as well as the winners. Being a loser in an ancap world would be one of the shittiest lives one could imagine.
The one people always mean unless they specify otherwise: Air.
As I said:

>a professional athlete... is someone watched over by world class doctors and who constantly has his performance, health, and bio data measured.

You can't compare the likelihood of a heart issue going undiagnosed in a professional athlete versus a high school kid or an adult participating in an unorganized sport.
sibling comment answered your question, but I'll turn it around and ask, how is it elsewhere? Are retirement contributions compulsory?
I recommend episode #1513 of JRE with Andrew Huberman. They discuss, among other things, exactly how this works.
>So there's no permanent harm.

The average MLB player's career is 5.5 seasons and this guy might be losing 1.5 seasons. That is still a huge cost even if he escapes without permanent damage.

>I don't think preventing athletes from doing their jobs for a few months by restricting everyone in that way is a sensible trade.

I never suggested any specific ways to avoid this situation let alone any type of shutdown. I am simply pointing out the dangers.
News on my Nextcloud server, it's kind of buggy but having the sync between devices is really valuable. Before that it was Thunderbird.
Is it still done via actual downloads? It's very easy for script kiddies to do that.

I would have expected a bit more sophistication, like hidden URLs in emails that autoresolve, at the least. Not my area, though.
It's a backup command center, in case of a decapitation strike. You could make a case for being more nervous, since a higher state of alert could either provoke more mistakes, or cause ambiguous moves to be interpreted as hostile ones.

Or, from a perspective of posterior probability, you could not be worried at all, since nuclear war has never before happened.
Removing geography from the hiring equation is going to fuck American tech workers. Once you’ve gone digital, there’s no (on paper) difference between a programmer in the Philippines or in Iowa except the one in Iowa is much more expensive.
China is in an undeclared war with the US. Xi has threatened to use nuclear weapons. Right now is eerily similar to the Cuban missile crisis, or Japan pre-WW2.

You can view the NTD/Epoch Times Youtube channels to learn more.
Try the Log File Navigator (http://lnav.org). It works directly with log files. Can understand many log formats by default and be customized. The log messages from separate files are collated into a single view where highlighting is also applied. You can even do analyses on the messages by executing SQLite queries (without having to insert the messages into a database).
> Your years of experience only make you less valuable.

Can you elaborate on that?
I'm not a US citizen so I'm not familiar with mobile plan prices there but T-Mobile Germany (our AT&T) has an unlimited data plan for 83€/month. So that's actually pretty close to the 99$. And seeing as they have the overhead as a relatively small company it seems okay to me.

Also they have their Librem One offering that includes a VPN. So it very much fits that use case. It's just not included.
Well, people doing native GUI design and not doing it for mobile (where there is already XCode and the Idea-based Android IDE) are probably 1/100 of people doing web work, and of them most do it for Windows, so already have VS proper.
Ask HN: Free resources to study for new Oracle's 1Z0-819 (Java11) certification?
This is the one I refer to:

It's going to substitute both 1Z0-815 & 1Z0-816 certifications, which are reaching EOL this month.

I'm using both study-guides for 1Z0-815 & 1Z0-816, and I've found one course on Udemy for the new 1Z0-819.

Is there someone who's studying for it and/or knows better resources to get ready for the exam?
no, and it looks like its all gone. But there were thousands of them an hour ago.
Isn't your company name problematic given the historical connotations?
You might be interested in the novel "The Goldfinch". It's pretty relevant to this post, and somewhat relevant to your comment. But it isn't a heist so to speak.
>So a real VS Code strategy starts to emerge...

Sounds more like premature drama/conspiracy theory atm...
Why is this relevant to Hacker News?
In Svelte you can define a reactive statement (or block) with the $ label syntax. It's semantically the same of a MobX's computed value, expressed succinctly `$: v = expr` where expr will be rerun when and only if its dependencies change.
"A bunch of countries in Asia are evidence that 100% contact tracing and then targetted quarantines work."

Are they? China still has cases. So do ~all of the southeast Asian nations, Korea, Taiwan and Japan. The virus is endemic, and while these countries may have controlled it temporarily, they have not eliminated it. Save for perhaps Korea (and maybe China, but it's not clear), most of these countries aren't testing at high rates, so they don't really know what is happening.

Unless you believe the virus is hiding out in cats, the only other logical conclusion is that it's spreading asymptomatically, and they're simply not detecting it until it pops up in a symptomatic way.
"Domestic animals expect food when they see the person who usually feeds them. We know that all these rather crude expectations of uniformity are liable to be misleading. The man who has fed the chicken every day throughout its life at last wrings its neck instead, showing that more refined views as to the uniformity of nature would have been useful to the chicken."

I understand communications from boomers' spouses are sent by radio in the clear (from platforms such as an E-6B?), so everyone gets to appreciate the rare occasions when double entendres are slipped in past the censors.
It's an abuse of flagging. The biggest story in the world. We can't even talk about it as a community.
although I love sailboats (compared to motor boats), they still pollute indirectly (most cruise boats have engines, they need maintenance which pollute, ..)

Bicycles too need maintenance, but it's so ridiculously insignificant compared to cars (at least my bike) that we can round to 0!
Jati-s (castes) exist. Does 'the caste system' exist? No one has proved it. What people do to prove the existence of such a system: injustices, one verse from Purusha sukta, some verses from Manu, another verse from Gita.
Yes, and what so? I think this is a standard protocol for almost all countries to activate reserve command centres in case of military leadership being incapacitated/dead/or in risk of captivity.
What bugs are you seeing with NC News? I use it as well, mostly without problems. The recent introduction of the sync interval setting led to some odd sorting problems in the feed but that is easily solved by setting the interval to the old value of 300 seconds. For the rest it generally 'just works'.
The same as in any language, really. The problem is that some developers assume "atomics == thread safe, so I'll make an easy way to mark things as 'atomic' and I won't have to worry about it."

That's why the standard advice on iOS and macOS was to mark properties as explicitly `nonatomic` – because it was almost never the right tool for the job.
It still boggles my mind that Chris Sawyer wrote Roller Coaster Tycoon was written in pure assembly, only failing back to C to handle windows sound apis. The game is a masterpiece, it defined an entire game genre for decades. And RCT ran smooth on my pentium 2 400mhz processor, even with hundreds of guests and dozens of rides. I believe there are many magnitudes of performance hiding in poor software abstractions in modern software.
Inoreader.

Tested a few others, e.g. the Digg Reader, around the time Google Reader was discontinued, but Inoreader was closest in functionality to GR so stuck with that.
I think the issue in this whole thread is that a lot of the people commenting on the benefits and merits of SMD development are failing to see the reality that the $6 for a board or $40 for a temperature controlled soldering iron are actually too much money in far too many parts of the world.

Sure as professionals you might work with $20K oscilloscopes and relatively speaking spending less than $100 on a basic SMD soldering station is peanuts, but we need to appreciate this is simply not the reality for a lot of the world out there.

This has nothing to do with the technical merits of SMD or how easy/hard it is to solder versus through-hole. For a lot of kids and makers in developing countries dip packages and veroboard are the only economically feasible gateway to start to make electronics.

I don't understand why everybody is struggling to accept this. Perhaps it is just a failure to appreciate the economic lottery of where in the world we are born.

To me it is sad that there are kids out there who would stop their curiousity just because of economic barriers, I hope AVR's dip packages continue to be produced for a long time to come.
You did good, and I am proud of you.

We must begin to treat our profession with the care due to it - recognizing the negative impact it can have on human lives, justice, and freedom when it is used with harmful or careless intent.

The ACM Code of Ethics is the closest thing we have to our own Hippocratic Oath, and I encourage all engineers to read and take the serious obligations we are charged with to heart.

California also has one of the highest state sales tax rates, and individual counties also put their own sales taxes on top of that, which can add up to 10.5% in the worst case, so you get taxed "coming and going".
Is it? The one new thing I've looked at (the Akai MPC Live drum machine) had everything wide open. Root console, no password. This also seems to have been the case for a lot of older network appliances etc, but it might have changed in recent years?

1% of 988 murderers were arrested for a new crime (yet not another murder). Is that higher than average? It sounds like it is.
What unsubstantiated claims did I make? The video begins in bad faith by painting proponents of renewable energy as people who have no understanding of technology or physics searching for "unobtainium". I don't believe anything in this submission is much of a positive contribution.

Simple fix for hacktoberfest maintainers - make it opt-in. Only merged PRs with the tag hacktoberfest from maintainers should count.

It's absurd that even closed prs count, and absurd they put the burden on maintainers to actively flag spam and auto-include all repos, many repos simply don't want changes of any kind.

Yes this means it won't apply to lots of repos and less people will be involved. That's ok.
This is true, but every non-trivial app requires the equivalent of `std::atomic_flag` and `std::atomic<int>` at some point...
> I find it troublesome that a room full of people and no one raised a concern about how the whole thing would be misused

As someone completely unaffiliated with Hacktoberfest (only attendee over several years), my impression is that there really haven’t been much issues with it until this year.

I’m quite confident it was all done in good faith.

Unlike all those shit, SPAM PRs.
I also use Thunderbird for both RSS and email.

It is perfectly acceptable to me that neither functionality is easy to work with, because in return I get all my non-instant messaging in just one application.

I'd probably really like it if it was possible to interact with WhatsApp and possibly Slack inside Thunderbird as well.
Owkin | Software Engineer / DevOps | Paris, France or Nantes, France | REMOTE | Full time |

Is usage the goal? I would think it's better to have, say, 80 devices on the market that use Linux and comply with the GPL and give software freedom to their users, along with 20 devices whose vendors chose to avoid the hassle and used a proprietary or permissively licensed kernel, than to have 100 devices that all use Linux and violate the GPL and give the users no ability to share or modify the software.

Oh so this is what's happening to my repos. I maintain one that gets ~60 million downloads a week, and is usually the first thing people run to for help when something unrelated goes wrong.

This is nothing new, though the volume has increased a bit.
If you go through some of his other videos, it seems he gains viewers by making clickbait-ish videos. One of videos says "Learn python in 1 video". The video is about 2 hours long.
If you watch a 7 day window it might be true, try a 30 day one and you might be surprise.
I think, technically, they have just already dropped off their ballot. Their vote won't be counted until 3th.
Not sure I agree there's a big cost if you do know what you're doing, THB. I'm notsure about Yocto, but I think the buildroot system has GPL compliance baked in. Like packages have licenses and you can export a dump of what you're required to provide. If you're using a proper distro it should be even easier.
If people wanted to farm a t-shirt, just create your own public github repo and make PRs to it. No need to spam real repos.
I believe at this point I've had every type of non-invasive scan available, not including all the various contrasts and radioactive tracers that are possible. An echocardiogram showed my heart beating weird obviously, but revealed no structural problems. The doctors seemed to use ultrasound mainly to look for perfusion through my heart muscle after pacemaker surgery, and once again provided no clues as to the cause of the nerve damage. It was a mystery until I had a PET scan, which was very telling, and then a subsequent biopsy to confirm the diagnosis.

I now have a lot of cool images of my insides on a CD, and I'm Bluetooth enabled.
I interviewed at an online proctor company, and I discovered that the build of chrome that they used tracked my eyes, tracked my mouse movements, and tracked my searches as I sat in their conference room and took some bullshit personality test.

I had a decent offer, but, still turned them down. Just wasn't interested in helping something like that succeed
i've tested this for 10 minutes now and i can confirm this has uses beyond just irritating boomers
Demand has been higher than supply for 4 decades or more. I don't see it changing in the next decade either.
You would need a provenly safe vaccine that we will not have within a timeframe of a few months and the threat from COVID probably doesn't justify a mandate. The severe reaction to it cannot be used as an argument here.

I think many adults would just refuse it with severe disadvantages for further medical exceptions because of lost trust. I believe people would have the right to just use the Swedish approach, which seems more sensible by the day. You can restrict travel to a degree for some countries, but not for a longer period of time.

> policymakers and the public will need to understand the limits of what is known

That includes the knowledge about a mandate being sensible or not and how policies can decide what risks people are willing to take.

> Public trust has already been compromised by federal officials’ endorsement of hydroxychloroquine as a Covid-19 treatment without evidentiary support

No, that wasn't a big issue. Be better about your judgement. For example:

> a generous compensation program for people who have serious vaccine side effects should be a centerpiece of these efforts.

This would make me more concerned about vaccines with insufficient testing...
Why would I want to mess with that now when it depends on Python 2.7?

Wouldn't that be like basing something on the LuaJIT-based

Guess that is maximum many of us can afford. Hence features that are missing from A100 is a bit moot. But the update we are wait. Still based on what we saw 3090 really does not worth the money. Still 24gb is 24gb.
> This page unfortunately does not demonstrate why he is profiteering

The page also unfortunately does not demonstrate why the people, who self proclaimed themselves "netfilter core team," are so hellbent on arm twisting McHardy into signing on their "Principles."

Linus said that those principles are not a prerequisite for participating in the Linux kernel, but the current netfilter people not only suggest they are, but are ready to scream, shout, mislead, make dodgy insinuations to people, and go wingnut to make contributors sign it.

The second assumption after first presuming them doing this is the goodwill, is them getting good paychecks from network devices owners who benefit from various extends of erosion of GPL terms.

I was in Singapore the day that Saddam Hussein invaded Kuwait. All of Singapore was on high alert and soldiers were everywhere even though it’s half a world away. It’s basically a basic level of readiness when something out of the ordinary happens. It shows the world that even if you tried to sneak attack the US with nukes that the US was capable of retaliating. The entire point of Mutually Assured Destruction requires the ability to strike back as part of the defense otherwise attacking first becomes a better solution.
