The issue is, these solutions are frequently retrofits of a local-first graphical environment: whatever you think about the actual X protocol, I think a display-server model that can be distributed across a corporate network in arbitary ways would make an amazing difference: You want to show something to a coworker? Send them a "window invitation" and, when they accept, an arbitrary window is mirrored to their display. Pairing? Everyone has a common "virtual desktop", and you just have two people's desktops temporarily merge. Instead we have nonsense like Wayland that is retreating from the mantra that "the network is the computer" (Amazon WorkSpaces is particularly disappointing here: there is no way, afaict, to have two screens logged into the same desktop: something that's trivial with tmux+ssh. My ideal is "tmux, but for GUIs")
The difference is that Starlink will have 10000+ satellites and traditional systems have far, far, far, far less. Saying 'its not viable for <old system>' and concluding its not viable for Starlink is a terrible line of argument.

I would assume the base performance is not that much, but it clearly not some crazy number for the Starlink system.
> I think the courts would be able to create a body of case law over whether a removal was due to a post being "violent, obscene or harassing" or for some other reason.

1. Maybe, but that's not what Hawley's bill does.

2. Leaving inherently political questions up to the courts invites politicizing the courts -- something that's already happened and that, if it continues apace, threatens to delegitimize and gridlock the entire federal legal system.

3. Given that you're not a Trump supporter or Republican, perhaps you should review the last 20 years of federal judicial appointments before placing so much faith in the courts...

> We can't be terrified of regulating platforms that have massive amounts of control over what most people see or hear about.

Agreed. I think there are lots of reasonable approaches toward regulation and/or self-regulation. The ability of customers to choose from a marketplace of recommendation algos (or implement their own) is the obvious market-based solution.

However, I do not think a politically appointed committee whose job is to define political neutrality is a reasonable approach. And I think that leaving inherently political moderation choices up to the courts would be even worse -- at least FTC chairs aren't lifetime appointments, and at least politicizing the FTC won't deteriorate public trust in the one portion of the federal government that is not yet perceived as nakedly partisan.
The credits are about the efficiency of the car, it does not take into account production. So I guess one could argue EV are getting an even better deal.
I think most super-successful people have taken gambles that were apriori foolish but ended up paying off. People who behave more or less rationally may not get the big jackpots, but they get a lot of small wins and avoid most catastrophes.
And if you're working in userspace, use the SDK!

bitbake -c populate_sdk <image-name>

This will output a self-extracting archive in your deploy directory. You can install this mostly self-contained SDK to a directory of your choosing. Then source the environment file it installed to get the correct build variables setup (CC, CXX, CFLAGS, LD, LDFLAGS, PATH, etc). From there, the variables will be setup to use your embedded image's sysroot. I do almost all of my userspace development using the SDK. If you're using CMake to build your native code, it will pick up the variables for you.

There are some gotchas with it, in particular, there are some modifications that might be necessary for your configuration to get the SDK to include more things relevant to your build. Probably the most notable is that static libraries are not output into the SDK by default.
> Even if exactly it getting in our hands is totally random.

But only if (we think) it's our own doing, right? Because (per another comment - I haven't paid to read the study) they didn't see the same effect if they gave the babies the toy.
This is the comment I was responding to:

> What are the repercussions of that? Does that imply, for instance, bending spoons with our mind could be a thing? I mean, if our identity extends beyond this flesh and can be aligned with the will of the universe, then maybe that's a thing. Maybe that's a thought we can entertain.

It doesn't seem to be about imagining that we can bend spoons with our minds.
First I’ve heard of Cognizant. What’s their rep?
No, you're entirely correct. People frequently mislead about the advancements Silicon Valley has made because it makes them feel good to bash it.

There are dozens of companies not named Uber or Airbnb that have come out of SV in the past 10-15 years that lead the world at what they do. You won't see the SV bashers talk about any of that, they go out of their way to avoid that point in fact.

Where is the DataDog of Europe? Doesn't exist. (DataDog is NY, however they have an office in the SV area as well)

And on the list goes. These are massive, wild success stories. Most of them are already big companies and they're growing fast. With few exceptions meanwhile most of the rest of the world not named China is asleep, and SV keeps on conquering markets and building giant software companies.

Where is the global competition for these companies? It largely doesn't exist, they're going to keep on with the SV traditional of pushing out of the homogeneous US market and scaling up globally and building giant companies.
I use the Nim and GCC compilers from Debian in order to have guaranteed stable build system for 5+ years.
There is some interesting research on this using fmri: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-aRfWcfCYKM
A community is a collection of individuals, each of whom may or may not feel pain in response to something that happens to less than 0.002% of Americans, and generally as a result of the deceased individual's own behavior. Collections of individuals do not experience pain as a collective. Many, if made aware, would still not care, because they manage to keep themselves out of jail, and barring that, manage to refrain from assaulting the correctional officers charged with maintaining order within the correctional system. Call them callous, but theirs is a way of being in the world that is no less valid than one that holds every individual's life worthy of special protection from the consequences of their unforced errors, and where these might be attributable to mental illness, there is a rational argument for putting the space and resources consumed by the mentally ill to better use. One wouldn't fill a spaceship full of mentally ill occupants where every individual's actions contribute to or harm the survival of the others, and it is not a huge leap to see the earth as a ship and the survival of it's occupants as far from guaranteed. It is straight forward to infer that that which increases net prosocial behavior within the species need not be resisted.
I would also add in the toolmaker's problem.

Rational thinking, like programming, is a tool. When you turn programming on itself, you get metaprogramming and new programming languages. Which is cool for programmers, and many a very skilled programmer has fallen down that rabbit-hole, but neither particularly profitable nor necessarily all that useful. To get the big bucks and make a big -- direct -- difference in the world, you need to combine the tool, programming, with domain knowledge and real-world problems.

Likewise, if you turn rational thinking on itself, you get metacognition, thinking about thinking, and rationalists. It's neat, but at the end of the day...
> Android client up and running too, it also is built from the same code

How does that work, and is it an alternative to dart/flutter?
Not to disparage Nim, but I can think of a number of other languages where this is possible:

* JS, obviously

* Rust

* C/C++

* Anything else that can compile to WASM

Of course it’s because we’ve increased administrative costs by privatizing it into numerous bubbles of ownership who all believe they’re somehow entitled a bigger piece of the pie to divvy up.

These are mathematical truths as much as any other, all documented in our theories of economics, government transfer of capital, etc.

Does the public cost on the books matter when we’ll socially bail out the failures and all be left with a desiccated environment?

Who benefits from that belief and agency around such semantics?

Normalizing the real logistics around these things would streamline costs.

But of course the gerontocracy demands we continue LARPing the story they’re normalized to. Figurative sacrifice & death is too scary, let’s just drag our grandkids off the cliff.

I've done this before, with all data stored in RDS mysql and wp-uploads in s3, but it's kind of pointless and less performant.

Your lambda bundle will effectively be just the entire contents of your public_html, complete with full php-fpm-equivalent spinup time with no reused sockets or caching. The executor is similar to something like exporting some fake envvars (like a path, query string, user agent, ip) and then effectively running `php index.php` or similar.

human invention? heard of rocks?
Yeah, I cannot stand the trend of sped-up videos. Especially those "life hack" ones where people fold their laundry super fast or that kind of thing. I want to take the time to ingest what I'm seeing. If it's only enjoyable/watchable at 4x speed, maybe it's not worth paying attention to to begin with?

Of course time-lapses and stuff like that are intentionally sped up, but for something like an instructional video, it's going to be challenging to take real meaning from it.

In general it seems that people want to see some "neat" thing, click Like, and move onto the next interesting thing. For me, I don't relate. I like to dive into my interests and invest some real time into them. Otherwise my perception of the world and the things around me is super shallow. In fact, when I want information, I usually want text and images, not video/audio.

Further, I don't find it very rewarding to watch those sort of "clickbait" clips. I understand it can be satisfying in the short term, but I find almost zero need for this type of entertainment. I sense the primal nature of it and find it unappealing. I also feel that those primal "entertainment" desires are being exploited for clicks/likes/advertising, and I prefer to be compensated by greater value than relatively-shallow time-wasting if I am being exploited :)

That smacks of a checkbox-driven mentality to software. Similar features don't have the same result. Implementation matters a lot

Flip it around and ask, what is the benefit of more effective communication worth to your company? You're already paying at least $10k a month for each person on your team. Making each person just 1% more efficient should be worth $100 a month.

It's not unbelievable that a communcation app would make that happen. Reaching out to a coworker saves a couple of hours of digging around. A high quality FYI channel means someone can read a proposal and spot a critical issue.

Slack is far from perfect, but choosing Teams instead to save a little cash seems like madness.
Limited Liability Partnerships exist in many jurisdictions. In fact the Big Four strongly lobbied for them in the UK.

Thank you for your thoughts and question.

There has been a recent wave of intratumoral approaches particularly for immunooncology (e.g. TLR, Sting, oncolytic viruses) and there are manuscripts in the scientific literature about the technical challenges and possibilities (https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamanetworkopen/fullarticle...).

So, to your question, yes it is specialized, but not particularly difficult. We have taken great care to leverage the learnings of those experts to minimize the challenges of interpatient variability.

But we will only know for sure if our efforts where sufficient once the human clinical data comes back. For now I can say that our preclinical studies are highly encouraging.
Randomness is very underrated, I imagine because it's uncomfortable for us humans to admit to something other than a nice causal story and free will.

Marvin Harris, known for his work on Cultural Materialism, writes in his books how such and such tribe are as they are, like more peaceful or belligerent due to differences in their environments, and a lot of hypothesis make sense but he ties himself in a knot trying to explain why two tribes in the Amazon that are neighbours, with the same diet etc and one is very aggressive and one is peaceful.

I thought maybe by pure chance one aggressive man got to power with violence and then he and his descendants imposed that culture. Same thing with many beliefs in cultures.

* the crap shield is made of Gor-tex so you need to protect the team but also expunge the toxins that build up within. Not all crap is generated outside of the team but you need to get ride of it.

* the crap shield is transparent so the team can see what's happening outside without being covered in it

* the crap shield is retractable so you can let some into the team's atmosphere. Not enough to cause harm, but keep them grounded in the imperfect world in which their work will live.

* the crap shield has a window lock, and you the manager are in control of it. This is for the same reason the driver of a car can lock the windows in the back seat to stop the kids from opening them when you're in the car wash.
A $10k medical bill is not what I would call catastrophic. Highly unusual, yes. But not catastrophic.

A catastrophic event would be something like you get run over by a car and have to spend weeks in urgent care racking up a six figure bill. Of course, such an event is highly unusual and the vast majority of people will never make a claim of that size or even approaching that size.

By design, people who don't make very much in claims pay for the people who do make those claims but also get the benefit of knowing if such an event ever occurred to them, they wouldn't be financially ruined.

> The insurance companies did the math to make sure they come out ahead no matter what you choose.

That's plainly false. See any true medical catastrophe.

I was thinking the same thing. The reason that plugins like this, uBlock, and Stylish are so valuable is that they have access to everything on every site by nature. On one hand it sucks to have functionality taken away but on the other hand it protects against potentially large security issues.
I agree completely. Yocto/OE gets a bad reputation as overly complicated, especially because a lot of people are doing this with hobbyist boards where they just want blinkenlichten. Yocto is definitely not easier for quick spinup on weekend projects.

However, if you're doing this full-time, and you want to do anything remotely complicated (you will), and especially if you have multiple products (you will), you start yearning for OpenEmbedded. It takes some time to learn, and the abstractions are hard to understand outside-looking-in, but it's well worth the effort.
My personal experience at GitLab:

There's plenty of videos, but the really cool thing is that basically everything has a transcript, or meeting notes, or an agenda. And I think this hits a really nice middle ground that works for different types of people.

Personally I am very fast at reading/writing, and I focus better and understand better when reading, so I skip most of the videos and calls and just read them instead. But for some people they really enjoy the video side of things, and that's cool too. Most of our meetings/calls are optional and it works well to cater to both types of people. Our source of truth is ultimately what's written down (i.e. in an issue) and how we get to that point is flexible.

I really like it.
Woah. That sounds interesting; can you elaborate?
In the U.S., law firms are very often structured as "limited liability partnerships," a.k.a. LLPs. In most versions of LLPs, each individual lawyer is responsible for her own malpractice and that of the people she supervises, but not of the malpractice of others. [0]

> Thanks to this law you can't be held liable if you have a blog with a comment section.

That's just bog standard HN moderation to make titles less baity. If we didn't do that, HN would be a completely different site—and not in a way that most HN users would appreciate. Having the titles on the front page be 'bookish' (to use pg's original term) is one of the core principles here.

We've since changed both the URL and the title.
Excel took a step in the right direction when it introduced tables, which autofill formulas for all its rows (seriously, use them!), but it should've made deviations more obvious in them. Right now it's the usual green corner, which is extremely easy to miss in a large data set. This, and explicit column types would prevent maybe 80% of spreadsheet errors.
This. Money is no hindrance. It can be set in motion for good. It's the only thing capable of producing real change.
Most super-simplified advice like "be who you are" is actually just people repeating the instructions that led them to their growth experiences, but it's not the actual growth experience.

This is true of "crap work" (i.e. stupid bugs, wading through documentation) but not of the crap external to the team. Your job as the manager is to deal with it all. You can either work to slow it's generation or suck it down, but it's all on you.

I've been working on a passion project for over 2 years now called Piano Gym! https://pianogym.com

The idea is very much the same - in that a USB midi piano (in chrome for now) can be connected to the computer and used to play sheet music in contenxt.

HOWEVER, Piano Gym's goal is much larger than Piano, and much larger than sheet music, despite that being the current state of the product.

Piano Gym's focus is to apply spaced repetition and flash card based review systems to get people playing Piano and learning music theory in context, while ALSO managing review systems and check points. Eventually we want to do this for all instruments too!

We want you in the gym to do your reps!

Additionally anyone can create content there. Whether you're a learner or a teacher you can make your own schools, courses, and lessons that others can enroll in to learn from!

It's incredibly exciting and super cool to see other people trying to solve these problems.

If anyone is interested please come and join us at the gym - Piano Gym!

That's a super interesting point -- today we live in structures that are built in ~weeks and designed in probably similar timeframe. Then you live with it for decades, flaws and all. The idea of decades+ of design input sounds really interesting. I wonder how much those cathedrals would have their design change as construction progressed. Very cool.
It’s literally against the law though.
