>Following this reasoning, high-competence individuals
might hold adaptable attitudes and recur to cynicism only
when it seems warranted, while their less competent counter-
parts might show more cognitive rigidity and—relying on the “better safe than sorry” heuristic—tend to endorse cynicism indiscriminately. Consistent with evolutionary principles, such a “better safe than sorry” strategy can prove
efficient when one lacks the ability to correctly identify the relevant features of the sociocultural context one is confronted with and determine whether cynicism is warranted or not (Brumbach, Figueredo, & Ellis, 2009; Gross, 1996). In
this sense, at lower levels of competence, holding a negative, cynical view as a default (assuming that people are guided by self-interest unless proven otherwise) might represent a more viable strategy than holding an overly positive view of others’ morality.

So the narrative is about competence and intelligence is a factor as it correlates with competence.
It's a nice tool, didn't intend to come off that negatively. More of a thought experience about the limitations of these types of tools.

I'm not sure it's quite beginner level, as I don't see anything that shows you where the note is on the keyboard? You'd have to start with a bit of reading knowledge, or be willing to just hit random keys until you figure out the mappings.

This is not a new thing. The yellow-press journalism of the US happened well over a century ago, and indeed you have papers which talk about Elvis and aliens, which would meet my definition of "fake news".

The only thing that changed was the distribution method (i.e. over the internet/social media).

I once wanted to build something like a graph of chord transitions from thousands of different songs, with weights based on how often that transition occurs in a genre given the previous N chords. Maybe something like that would help with giving chords natural names for their context?

I don't see the anti-Amazon part. What I do see is a developer that either has a license issue or simply wants some attention.

Alternative headline: What if your political or religious beliefs were rooted in a mental disorder?

I don't mean to repeat the canard of "conservatism is a mental illness" - as a whole, it's not. But there is a growing body of evidence suggesting a minor correlation between certain subsets of conservative thought and certain phobias. For example, people who tend to be conservative also tend to be more readily disgusted. If you make a pill that treats those phobias, then you are by definition also "treating" their politics, too; even if this is just by accident.

Nixon was smarter than we took credit for. Banning the drugs liberals and black people used wasn't just a way to get a bunch of quick and easy felony convictions on his political opponents, it was a way to arguably ban the promulgation of competing political views altogether. Certainly, his paranoia is something that could have been treated by the drugs he was banning.

Li Bai and the Abominable Prague Machine
If you run etcd as a singleton you already get this behavior - consensus is shortcircuited and you only have to pay the cost to write to durable storage (which is already heavily batched). And you need durable writes so you can crash recover (kube has a gaping hole today in that a restore from an earlier time point breaks many controllers until a reconcile is performed).

Note that Kubernetes requires a total ordering of writes (which simplifies how hard it is for us puny humans to reason about) AND requires strong consistency in order to provide guarantees like “this pod only runs on one machine at a time” and “PVs aren’t released until the pods are really stopped”. Leaderless is a simple tradeoff - singleton or three instances. That’s the best possible choice in the world and it’s etcd and it’s relative simplicity that make it possible.

I’ve never seen a production Kube system with HA etcd go down due to non-human error, so I don’t believe single instance is going to give you better availability when single machine faults happen (they happen frequently; about 0.5-1% of the machines in the OpenShift fleet - cloud and on-premise - are down at any one time due to power, software, or hardware issues). Almost all of those clusters tick along fine when they lose that machine.
There are two hard problems in computer science: naming things, cache invalidation, and off-by one errors.
Some linux settings apply to every TCP connection which can be a very surprising result and hard to debug. I can see someone wanting to time out a feature, so it doesn't upset the rest of the system forever.

I agree. I'm not even sure I understand defending AWS here from a purely capitalist perspective. When a large company gives thanks to a open source developer they are encouraging that developer to continue contributing. That could possibly benefit the company in the future - to act otherwise doesn't seem to serve their own interests very well.
OpenPilot pretends it's the ADAS and some cars you can pass the torque sensor on the custom serial bus used by the cars. There's not much difference in tricking or pretending or overwhelming the serial bus with another data message to make the steering system respond to OpenPilot.

If you look at the NYT op-ed section, there are right wingers on there too, see Ross Douthat, et. al, as well as plenty of centrists, and lefties. National Review does not have the same diversity, and only features prominent right wingers.

Maybe I'm getting too bogged down in the op-ed section, like you say; but, it does make you think about the effect an op-ed section has on the news content as well.

> Prepaid numbers are typically scored worse than post paid numbers as well, but that sort of behavior would quickly be identified as fraudulent.

This assumes there is a way to tell which numbers are prepaid or not. To the best of my knowledge they both originate from the same pool of numbers and it is impossible for an outsider to tell whether a given carrier's number is prepaid or postpaid.
Good idea, it is already on the list but not in that context, I will increase its priority.

"and much much easier to pick up than Rust."

That's my impression so far, too.
Previously, I already had some experiences with C, Pascal, and Python. Then learning Nim just feels natural.

Not so much with Rust. Well of course it's not surprising, with memory safety as one of its goals.
Absolutely, Pianobooster has some rally neat concepts.
Ryan Mac's series of reporting on the matter at Buzzfeed is commendable: https://www.buzzfeednews.com/author/ryanmac

They intentionally protect right wing bad actors like Breitbart because they along with their milder counterparts (Ben Shapiro, etc.) continuously score the top posts of the day on the network.
One Year of C
Seems to be the primary reason we age is dna damage. The first order effect is cancer, and the second order effect is that the body engages various cancer prevention strategies like senescence.

There are some other ways in which we accumulate damage, such as scar tissue, and increasing amounts of embedded foreign bodies. But not nearly as important as dna damage.

For this reason, I see crispr as the only path that could lead to immortality, and frozen stem cells as the most likely way to stall until that happens.
We talked about it recently, and certainly people want to do this, but I don’t see it happening anytime soon in core. Downstreams are free to carry patches though and many do.

It’s more that the core team doesn’t have the time to support these, and we already have a fairly tight contract with storage, and we still find edge cases that need to be fixed, so the extra cost for the committers to support this is high.
The GPL doesn't have this advertising clause - it's largely specific to some BSD variants.

Understood, its your prerogative and your choice. I feel that inference is not derogatory nor offensive, and I would rather be banned that be required to coddle those who are incapable of receiving or digesting criticism or engaging in difficult dialog.

I come here for the intelligent and interesting discussions. Often times these are the types of discussions that are difficult for people as they contain ideas that challenge one's sense of self and place are the most uncomfortable. But without those challenges, people will never grow. Trees are strongest where the forces of nature are not buffered. People are as well.

Like others, I saw the shorter animation, via Mastodon.

I assumed there was a source video but couldn't find one after an hour or so searching "medieval bridge building", "medieval bridge construction", etc., particularly as the keywords are dominated by gameplay animations.

There are several somewhat related videos on castle construction, employing some of the methods employed on Karlův most, e.g.:

How were castles built / constructed in the medieval period?

Building A Medieval Castle Using Authentic Tools | Secrets Of The Castle | Timeline
https://youtube.com/watch?v=ydoRAbpWfCU (~1h)

The first relies heavily on contemporary experience from Guédelon Castle, "an experimental archaeology project aimed at recreating a 13th-century castle and its environment using period technique, dress, and material."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guédelon_Castle

There are numerous videos of contemporary methods, e.g., Grady Engineering's dewatering explainer, showing the modern adaptaions of coffer dam / cassion construction illustrated in the submitted piece (https://youtube.com/watch?v=URC125wpMS4), various pre-cast span methods (https://youtube.com/watch?v=QDotEB6Uh9s https://youtube.com/watch?v=S3Kf9e6JgF4). China especially has developed rapid (https://youtube.com/watch?v=zvuufBqp0_4) and extreme (https://youtube.com/watch?v=2jj7gH3569M) span construction to an art form.

But rigorous videos detailing ancient construction, not so much.

I have been doing embedded for a number of years. I'm the only fulltime SWE at my company and it just gets exhausting managing 5 different products on completely different code bases/technologies. Plus a web portal that does device management and reporting.

So a big thing people should consider when building something to scratch. Am I making something I can use again when I make my next product. Its a much higher mental load if you have no commonality between products. Also it can cause problems for sales, support and management when they have to remember nitty gritty details about each of your very divergent products.
I'm in Scotland - I don't think that applies to the same extent. I should note that most of the footpaths around here were built by the farmers who own the land!

"While in England and Wales, highway authorities have a duty to maintain legally recognised maps of rights of way, in Scotland different legislation applies and there is no legally recognised record of rights of way."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_of_way#Scotland

I do a lot of walking in Scotland and I've never paid any attention to whether a path is described as a "Right of Way" or not - mostly it seems of historical interest for places like the wonderful "Jock's Road":

It's not yet concerning since you need to hardwire to the custom serial bus of modern car to have access to steering and cruise control systems. What's concerning is the trend started by Tesla that remotely disables your car.
Thanks. My issue is not with the feature being hidden, but the positioning being misleading.
Ask HN: How do you/team stay innovative/creative working remote?
Working mostly remote creates some new challenges in innovation and creative process. Coming from a Nordic country where a lot of creativity and discussion around new ideas happen around FIKA, lunch, pokeing someone on the shoulder and asking do discuss when oneself is most engaged around a new idea. It feels like the edge is taken away when having to schedule time with someone when an idea hits you. How do you do? Have you changed something since covid/lockdowns hit?
Worth noting: he _has_ a competing business. It was started before Amazon launched theirs in fact. Checkly, his startup, does synthetic monitoring, which Amazon got into after he was already into it.
Similar to Nagle, there are reasons to combine packets on a session. Network equipment that fools with every packet can get backed up if the traffic packet count exceeds a limit. By Nagling (or doing something similar in your transmit code) you can increase your message rate through such bottlenecks.

Used to have a server cluster that used some 'hologram' style router on the receiving end, to spread load. It had a hard limit on # packets per second it could handle. I changed our app to combine sends (2ms timer, not 40ms!) and halved our total traffic packet count. Put off the day they had to buy more server-side hardware to handle the load.

Btw if the clients are on wifi networks, then there's no point in aggregating sends past a pretty small size (512 bytes?) because wifi fragments (used to fragment?) packets to that smaller size over the air, and never reassembles them, leaving that to the target server.
If you notice the video linked (you really should not be downvoted for good input like this), then you'll notice that my son Luca is playing a piece which is fairly repetitive, but he did not have any instruction at all, the app helps you figure out what is where all by itself, 'random' keys will quickly guide you to the right keys. and then from there once you get the hang of it relative movement should come fairly naturally. The biggest hang-up is the piano keyboard itself with its unequal spacing between adjacent white keys.
>Do you mean the scenario where employees come in a limited number of days for meetings?

What I meant is that individuals who would prefer to be in an an office come in and mostly the only other people there are other groups doing their own thing.

And I agree about the structure. Where I work, people have been pretty good about using shared docs--Etherpad for a long time and Google Docs now. But with everyone on video calls, shared docs are now used pretty religiously for most meetings.

Also agree about the use of office. I'm happy to come into an office now and then if it's for a particular purpose. I've no interest in coming into one to work individually or maybe run into someone and have a serendipitous conversation. Serendipity is fine but it's actually pretty inefficient.

It is amusing that you doubt that "John Nagle" on Stack Overflow is M. Nagle, but don't express any doubt that "Animats" here on this WWW site, and indeed this very discussion, is M. Nagle. Surely the reverse stance is the more logical, if one has no idea what "Animats" is.

It is odd that some people give more credence to a pseudonym, or in this case a company name, than to using one's own name.

I once had to debug the scaling performance of a MPI-based simulation algorithm on cheap linux machines with TCP. I finally collected a TCP trace and showed it to the local expert who said: "hmm, 250ms delay right there.. that's the TCP retransmit timer... you're flooding the ethernet switch with too many packets and the switch is dropping them. Enable <such and such a feature>."

Since then I've always kept various constants in human RAM because it helps root cause.
> Midi is 'lossy' in the sense that it flattens a bunch of knowledge about how a piece is to be rendered into note-on/note-off pairs.

As using MIDI will probably never be perfect, have you thought about using the score in a suitable format, like LilyPond, directly?
lol. That's almost certainly not how this worked.

This worked by:

- The PM set some broad brush requirements.

- An engineer saw there was some useful code.

- They/their infrastructure checked that it was under a sensible license.

- They added it

- They released it

- Someone noticed that their product was being used under the license that they had released it under.

- ..

- Big deal?
Would depend on expenses and fanbase. Personally it seems more geared towards individuals and I've seen it do well for some. Not sure if any corporations sponsor people there or elsewhere. A lot of people like sponsoring at different tiers, like on kickstarter, which might be the key to success.
While writing this question a thought popped into my mind: Maybe it's actually better like this. Now I/we have to think the idea through before "wasting" someone else's time.

I guess I'm looking for:
1. Have you actually changed anything in your team/organization with regards to innovation?
2. If you were a (mostly or only) remote working company. How have you approached innovation?

Not everything affects your like corisone, though - just like being drunk isn't like being high.

Steroids are known to increase aggression in some people: I've had them through an IV, which made me hallucinate, and then pills (prednisone) that made me miss sleep (once for inflamation, at a fairly high dose, and once for an allergy at a lower dose). The hallucinations were of an uncomfortable sort and not at all like what I'd get off of LSD or shrooms. None of these things are quite like the alters of MDMA. Similarly, none of the things I mentioned are like psychiatric drugs. Heck, some psychiatric drugs are for the same thing, but work better for one person than the other.

Heck, Tylenol (Paracet) has been shown to ease emotional pain.

Just because one thing is uncomfortable doesn't mean these others are worthless, nor does already having mind altering pills mean that there isn't room for the other ones.

I used that too for ~6 months some years back and definitely got something out of it, though it was imperfect. There's too much lag in any such MIDI system for it to truly correct your timing and PianoMarvel doesn't even attempt to judge your volume or the duration of notes, if I remember correctly. But it gives you a reasonable progression of pieces from easy to harder and forces you to actually play them. Also some scores were poorly typeset, particularly things like trills. Overall, it helped me improve my ability to read sheet music fluently, which is what I primarily wanted out of it. I learned more with a teacher, of course.
