While bringing developers to the stone age before RAD tooling was a thing.

Because when one designs languages over weekends and late nighters, state of the art GC, JIT and GUI tooling are at very deep bottom of their roadmaps.

So thank you very much, but I will keep enjoying Java, .NET and C++ based tooling.
No unless the only job offers around you are for PHP and you are not willing to move.
I’m in the UK where we also don’t allow prisoners to vote, but I’ve always said they should have it for a simple reason - with the way it is, there’s an incentive for any given government to imprison the political opposition. Even if it’s not used, it’s there.

Edit: downvoted already, interesting. I lean centre-right on most things
Too much saturated fat is a statistical killer in some populations, sure.

Please investigate the ratio of saturated fats in the food produce you highlighted before making quite coarse statements.

The saturated fat content typically in egg (3% saturated fats) and for example, ground beef with 30% fat content (10% saturated fats) is quite different.

Fat content of industrially produced dairy products can vary quite a lot as well.

So it's quite different thing to eat all of calories for example from butter (50% saturated fat of total weight) or lean ground beef.

I think that example just emphasises Reelin's point. Perhaps there was a temporary effect of more tellers, but now they've been entirely replaced with software - to the point there are many Internet only banks with no physical branches - and bank branches are closing down all over.
Paint has a "Render history as gif" function??? That is amazing! Or is this a new feature in paint?
Why are so cheap to replace a cameraman by an AI?
They could leave the camera control from remote to someone in a low income country, would make a better job for peanuts.

That was another externalized cost by those companies. Their drivers were the ones getting mugged and beaten by original taxi drivers.
Exactly this. This situation is the same with SBCs. A product having a mainline kernel is a huge plus.

In JS, undefined is also typical for uninitialized fields and variables, so undefined can show up without a typo. And if you've got typos, why not use e.g. TypeScript?
This is a surprisingly easy mistake to make.

Background: I was one of the original engineers on the Goal Line Technology system now used by the vast majority of professional leagues.

Heads are surprisingly ball shaped from a a lot of camera angles, and the male balding pattern conspires to give a good impression of different football graphical designs.

When we were developing the system, we thought we had ball detection pretty nailed, and we never had false positives from any of the heads of engineers on the team. Then, our boss came to test the system ... As far as our algorithms were concerned, his head was exactly a football, just as in the article! Highly embarrassing, but everyone saw the funny side. It gave us better data and inspired a few more robustness checks that ended up being crucial later on! :)

Ask HN: Advice on Motivation
I’m a 44 year old software engineer, on the spectrum. I’ve been with the current company for 15 years (.NET/C#) I used to be able to work long hours, but the last few years I‘ve lost all motivation. I can get a few productive hours in a day and that’s it. I am currently going through open job positions on various web sites but reading the job descriptions makes me extremely anxious because they don’t seem much different than my current job. I enjoy learning new programming languages (Rust, F#, Elixir, Go) and have no problem with motivation working on the few libraries and a toy compiler I made as a hobby. Any advice on how to approach this problem?
How to turn on Instagram dark mode for Android and iOS
The proposals to consume a large percentage of daily intake of calories in form of fats, but avoid saturated fats, are not mutually exclusive.

There are sources with high fat content but low amount of saturated fats like like salmon or olive oil. Animal fat with high saturated fat content is not the only alternative.

For example, salmon or egg has 3% content saturated fats. Beef has 6%, and as ground beef with delicious fat added to make the burger patties more delicious, the content can go up to 10%.

Butter has saturated fat content of 50%.
> WE WERE TAUGHT BY UNITED STATES MILITARY TO NOT HAND OUT MASKS IN AN EPIDEMIC WHAT CHANGED?

The US military was the wrong place to look for a general solution to a civilian crisis.

All advise given from a military context relies on the idea that the civilian administration will step in, and coordinate, or handle things on its own.

For example, the military is advised not to do long term criminal investigations... but that’s not because detective work is valueless, but because it’s expected that the civilian police will handle that.
Matrix Engines for HPC: A Paragon of Performance or Grasping at Straws?
I just came out of months of hard lockdown in Melbourne.

Everyone wants to downplay our results. But we went hard and obeyed the rules. I really do think we acted exceptionally as the public.

I see what other places with outbreaks are doing, and it seems very lax.
"High Performance Computing" shortened to "HPC" in order to fit within title character limits.
That's incorrect. The level of skill and automation potential aren't related. For instance healthcare is a hugely growing market with a lot of low skilled opportunities requiring human interaction.

I think the situation is quite a bit more complicated than you make out.

To my ISP, NAT obscures device browsing history (assuming there are multiple people and devices within a household). To the best of my knowledge an ISP has no realistic way of engaging in mass browser fingerprinting.

To a web host, NAT obscures the number of users behind a given IP address. Sure, they can likely recover some amount of information by engaging in browser fingerprinting but right off the bat it makes their job harder.

Security and privacy both involve layers. Every bit of information leaked is a concession to an adversary. When I switch my home network over to IPv6 I will almost certainly add NAT to it.

> the Internet is harmed by it

I don't believe you. Shitty software is harmed by it. If you have concrete examples to the contrary, I'm open to them.
Most people strongly disagree with you. You need to offer an argument, not an assertion, since you're callit for a major and unpopular change.

And if like many of my lefty friends by "abolish" you actually mean something that doesn't even come close to meaning "abolish", you're just causing problems with your abuse of language.
Because with the GPL you can still obtain the source code for any changes made to your original work if they want to put any software made for it public. GPL'd software is required to have the source available under GPL to anyone it is distributed to. You can merge any of this code back into your work, as it has to be GPL licenced.

With the MIT licence they can distribute proprietary software based on your work and not have the source available, as this is not required with the MIT licence. So you have no way to get the changes or improvements other parties have made if they choose not to give them to you.

Take what I am saying with a pinch of salt, others can give a better explanation. I'd suggest looking it up yourself.
Based on advice from certain experts like Rhonda Patrick and various anecdotes from others I think the combination of sugar and fat in particular exacerbates the damaging effects of both.

This study seems to focus on one variable, but there may be all sorts of bias in that those who consume a lot of saturated fat also have poor nutrition otherwise and lead unhealthier lives overall.
hidden img tags to all common gateways (eg 192.168.0.1) are loaded in background

And why would browsers allow this? If I connect to external IP address, why would the browser happly parse such html tags that allows introspection of my local network? Unless of same origin, browsers should not allow this, seems like a bug.
I work with many developers who don't speak English as a first language and they find things in JavaScript like .filter to be hard to grasp, but .Where in C# makes perfect sense to them because they understand that they're looking for something in a list "Where" their conditions are met.

That's just one example of things in JavaScript that are poorly named for people to guess what they do.

That's a weak argument.

1) You'd have to imprison millions of people to make a difference in most elections.

2) If you actually have the power to imprison so many people without consequences, you don't need to do it for the election's sake. Just fake the election results. Works for Putin, Lukashenko, and other dictators. Gulags are a pain to manage, especially in the modern world where information spreads like wildfire.
I don't have an opinion on how good a format RTF is, but I kind of like it.

As part of a Java project (a while ago), I studied the RTF format, partly by reading the spec, and partly through reverse engineering - by creating multiple incrementally larger RTF docs, starting from zero content, then adding a word, then a font style, then a paragraph, a table, etc. And after each addition, opened the RTF in a hex editor and viewed the content, to help decipher the format rules. Then wrote a small RTF generation library in Java, that we used in the project to programmatically generate reports from DB data fetched via EJB. I also provided some ability to vary content and style independently.
Good fun.
Only if your preferred language is doing so badly in your area that you have no other choice.

For instance, I have been using Python all my career, but to this day it is a niche language in my country. I also know PHP, Java, and C++ from school and personal projects (guess which I used for school and which for personal projects), and I have considered job offers in the past when Python was extremely unmarketable. One of those times I had to move to another city for nearly a year to avoid switching to another language.
I assume most user manuals would be at least somewhat dishonest. No one is going to write "I'm touchy and thin-skinned, make sure to sound at least a little complimentary when giving me feedback."
Software Engineering OR how to be precise in your speech
That is the proper way of doing, but then some lazy devs rather code with Chrome APIs instead of Webs standards.
They did this for Goal Line Technology (put a chip in the ball).

A few companies actually managed to get a production process that put a chip in the ball without affecting flight characteristics (there are a lot of regulations around this), and these balls were used in competition once (Club World Cup 2012).

Ironically, the most complicated bit is the sensors in the posts.

From an Infosec perspective, this is normal. CORS should be put on place per local network visibility or host to disallow such feature.

Human trafficking is the 3rd largest crime industry in the world, and to find slaves you just need to go wherever there are prostitutes in your area.

Yes, even when prostitution is legal, for example Germany is one of the main destinations in Europe.

It might be a feature implemented by Samys fork although no implication of that is visible.
Initial sync up of a full node doesn't need all 300 GB of chain history to be downloaded/validated.

A pruned state can be downloaded with no more trust assumptions than that required to trust the software distribution channel where you download the Bitcoin software from to actually serve Bitcoin.

Anyway, every one in the world doesn't need to run a full node. Even a few thousand geographically distributed full nodes is enough to offer resistance to network shut down, and there are more than a few million people that are capable of running a full node of a hypothetical Bitcoin with 1 GB sized blocks, which only requires downloading 1.67 MB/s of transactions to keep up with validation. That's a 1000 expansion of Bitcoin's throughput, letting Bitcoin become the world's most widely used currency.

The entire small block narrative is built on a shaky foundation that ignores the massive benefits of enabling more people to transact directly on the Bitcoin blockchain.
You can do that perfectly transparent, the executable just starts the user standard browser.

It was a standard practice for some applications in the .com days.

Electron is just another example of the disease making Web == ChromeOS.
I don't know of a better alternative to PDF that was around at the time, but I can't say I'm a fan. It undeniably works well as a way of placing pixels precisely on a page but then so does PNG, and PNG is far simpler and compresses better for computer generated content.

Sadly some information I only get as PDF's, so I have to scrape them. Easy right? It can be, if the PDF is structured sanely. But PDF isn't some well defined data structure for laying out the page, it's a Turing complete stack based computer program that can do whatever it damned well pleases. The font tables don't necessarily have ' '=32, 'A'=65, 'a'=97. Why not optimise it and get rid of all those gaps, so now ' '=0, 'A'=30? And it doesn't have to be drawn in any sane order. It can be just a mess that makes even copy & paste near impossible, and some are.

Did we really need to invent a DSL that has to be executed every time we wanted to view page? I remember it being pushed as a cool solution at the time. It doesn't look so cool now. SVG would be an improvement.

Pardon the LQ comment but LOL
I should have articulated it better - i don’t mean literally rounding people up to sway an election. I think it might be something that happens gradually over time with a softer, more subtle effect than that. Say, tougher enforcement in some areas than others.

And how about what’s made illegal in the first place? Could there be an incentive to pass laws that criminalize activity that the other side is more likely to engage in? (See: the war on drugs)

It’s probably naive to think that there are no political consequences at all.

The “Feynman technique” is all about writing your own notes, reviewing them to identify gaps in your knowledge, and organising them. That is basically how you are supposed to use spaced repetition software. In this context, Feynman’s criticism of rote memorisation just means “avoid downloading premade decks.”

In conventional JS, undefined is used for both and null is just a curiosity. JS does make a distinction between a non-existent field and a field containing undefined as a value. Is there anywhere where the JS standard library uses null? I don't recall any. In my experience having two null values causes problems, for instance you check for one but not the other. It also remains the one remaining use of the == operator, without null we can expunge == too.
It's very easy to oversimplify this growing problem. If it was that simple most families would take care of their elders isn't it?

What about that 100% dependent elders that are not terminally ill?

What about single childs that on their late 60s that have to take care of two persons in their 90s?

What about families that don't live from tech money and can't afford to hire a personal caretaker?

Who will caretake the caretaker parents?

This is still an unadressed problem disguised with cheap morals. Then, when a radical answer appears (euthanasia), everybody pretends not to see.

But now it seem to me, to work in a bank or any other office job, you need a degree from university. Whereas before, these jobs required a high school diploma and maybe some training.
A few reasons why this outsourcing is more extensive than you might think:

Latency: (cheap labour is usually far away from the match). This makes teleoperation harder.

Bandwidth (TV ops run from a van in a car park - so getting a reliable video feed out is expensive).

Logistics: you still need to hire, train and utilise that person effectively.

Reliability: what if your remote operator's internet goes down?
Offtopic, but I found this interesting tidbit from the how to get on hn frontpage article:

To get to the front page, you only need 5 or 6 upvotes, within the first five to ten minutes

Is hn really this easy to game? I wonder what all has changed on the backend since 2013... I'm sure quite a bit, given the increased presents of sockpuppetry/bots on the net.

edit: A quote of dang that evokes great irony given the source:

Articles that try to make a system out of how they succeeded on HN always miss this point.
Appending to a string buffer that grows exponentially will copy roughly twice as many bytes as building the result in a buffer that has the exact size. If you have to copy out of the resizable buffer into an exact-size area of memory, that becomes three times.
>I think the combination of sugar and fat

That might just be that together they are particularly palatable. You would have a hard job eating a bowl of sugar or a bowl of cream but mix them together and it's much easier.
It's like there's this collective cultural shrug of acceptance whenever someone does something that 1) makes a profit 2) is technically legal.

And people just jump in with explanations of how it totally makes sense to act like that in the given the profit motive.

It sets a pretty low bar for expectations. Also, it gives a lot of power to individuals whose modus operandi is the above.

But why is this the expectation? You could also subscribe to and support a publication because they make the hard choices, also publish the unpopular news. Because you think this is important. However, if you do this, support the publication, but the publication starts chasing profit instead of truth, then in the US, joke's on you! Of course they would chase profit instead of truth, everybody will tell you.

It kind of reminds me of the Ferengi in Star Trek sometimes. Does the Star Trek universe perhaps offer any insight how they run a society when the entirety of this society is doing nothing but chase profit?
There is a good book on this called “Traction” by Gabriel Weinberg (the founder of DuckDuckGo) where he outlines 19 “channels” for getting traction [1]. I’ve also seen the guy from FPU [2] do a good job at extending this list.

Also, why is nobody focusing on unsuccessful “growth strategies”? I’ve often learned more from people who failed at something and told me 10 things to be aware of vs. someone who succeeded and didn’t recognize the role luck played in their success.

Could be worse. You could have a router with a quantum ALG.

Does Disable mean disable the ALG? Or disable the passthrough and thus enable the ALG? You'll have to observe the traffic to find out.

(The internet generally believes it's the former. Me, I put mine into bridged mode because I use my own router anyway.)
Thanks, I will read that more. I am still confused, maybe you can tell me: for 'normal math'(what is usually taught in a formal 3 year degree), is first order logic enough (for getting all the results). What I am trying is to see where this second order logic fits in to what I use already.

In HNs defense, dietary science is a minefield of special interest groups, small sample sizes, animal models and poor controls. Not to mention the editorializing of every p < 0.05 by the media and bloggers, along with all of the n=1 anecdotes. Its so much harder to find valid reliable sources than to find sombody with a book to sell.

The other problem is that people want a silver bullet. Being told to eat a varied diet with enough macro and micro nutrients is less satisfying than being told that "the thing you want to eat is good and you should cut back on the things you enjoy less".
