I recently opted out of one where they gave me a list of opt-out choices, with the default being "I still wish to receive this information". If I was on autopilot I would have submitted it. It seems to follow the letter of the law but feels pretty sleazy.
You do need scp on the remote side. Try it yourself.
So, to be clear, it’s horizontal totalitarianism when members of a society cast judgment on those who view homosexuals as illegitimate, for example, but not when society itself marginalizes homosexuals because they are generally viewed as illegitimate? I’m not sure the author would agree with this characterization, but it seems entirely compatible with the logic they presented here.
There's a spec?
I'm happy Google is looking to move to a user funded model from an ad funded model for atleast some of its services.

An automated system can't compare to an actual human, a human won't fail because the markup changed.
Thank you for sharing! I plan to try both services.

> If you put a formula into any cell starting with an `=` character, the office suite will give you a terse warning about updates or something, and when you accept, it will run every formula.

Also Excel use the prefix apostrophe (') as an escape character to force text interpretation of a cell.

It will save that escape character to CSV, and will interpret an apostrophe prefix as an escape character.
In my experience, bluetooth audio latency has made watching videos completely impossible, extremely annoying to be hearing something and not seeing the lips of the person moving the right way.
When you immediately want more of something is a REALLY good sign to walk away.
Discussion here is serious discussion. It's not people shooting the breeze. Low value comments are actively discouraged.

HN is not very transparent in some respects. It may not be obvious if someone is new here that a lot of people here have significant expertise in various domains.

So coming here is not like wandering into a coffee shop where random people are shooting the breeze and doing that "armchair politician" thing, though it may seem like it is. It's more like wandering into some academic club at some major university and joining the discussion without having to be enrolled in the university because they have some extreme inclusive policy.

You have more or less told everyone here "Doctors and scientists are all dumb! And furthermore I know better than them!" and then asked "What does N=1 mean?" You are basically attacking and insulting a lot of the people you are addressing and then asking them to explain their field to you after having just dismissed them.

It's always okay to ask what something means, but a best practice is to google the question first, especially for something simple/basic. (Granted, googling doesn't always turn up a good explanation -- some things are surprisingly hard to google.)

However, sometimes all that does is signal that you don't really know what you are talking about and can't back up your strongly stated position. And that's what's going on here in terms of social dynamics.
I find interesting their approach on how to compare the implementation complexity for the developer between the langauges. I quote,

State management, "code that is used to save temporary data required by the ongoing coordination process"

Windowing management, "code needed to discard messages that do not satisfy the pattern’s timing constraints"

Sequencing control, "code to enforce a particular message order"

Pattern definition, "ode used to express the type of messages to be synchronized and their content-based conditions"

In their solution they free the programmer from most of these lines of code.
Disks have gotten ridiculously fast. One NVMe card can move 5GB of data or 1,000,000 IOPS over 4 PCIe lanes. With 128 cores, you need to parse 39MB/sec per core, or dispatch 7.8 thousand I/Os per second for each drive in the system.

This processor has 64 PCIe lanes, and a drive uses 4. If you use half the lanes for disks, you’d need to multiply my numbers by 8. So, in addition to running application logic and talking to the network, each core needs to parse 312MB or dispatch 62K IOs per second.

Those numbers are certainly achievable, but hitting them requires some care. So, this processor is fairly well-balanced for moderately compute intensive workloads, such as query processing, or maybe frontend logic (which would probably want a machine with more network and less disk).

Note that the 128 cores are just to keep up with storage that easily fits in 1U or a fairly compact desktop tower case.

If you measure speed as the IO to compute density, these CPUs are actually slow and bulky by historical standards.
Yes, I experienced a lot of pain while working with CSVs in UTF-16, turns out some libraries can't handle it.

Also, CSVs don't really scale because parsing generic CSV that may have quote and line-end inside a field is inherently single-threaded, so once you get to multi-gigabyte CSVs, and things start to go slow, there's nothing you can do.
No, the resolution isn't even close to good enough to get that kind of detail at distance. You would need a much more expensive (and larger) device or perhaps some approach using photogrammetry and proper lighting. To your first question, it spits out a point cloud that is then converted to a vertex-based mesh [1]. It's not in an easily exported format by default, but you could convert it into an OBJ (I'm sure someone already has an app or code snippet to do this).
If nothing else there is RFC4180 (which is the spec that backs the mime type).
Yes, the CCC is self-hosting. But we're not talking about the CCC here, but about Arch Conf.
Interesting, how much does the on-grid solar cost compared to off-grid ?

Also, they seem to be mostly talking about cities... which already have an electrical grid !
For the record, I am buying this because the cube enemies remind me so much of Code Lyoko that I want to relive those memories in a video game. Not because it looks awesome in all the other ways :P
> Excel saves files in different character sets on MacOS and Windows.

Doesn't excel also use different separators depending on the locale? I recall once it would create semicolon-separated files if the locale uses `,` as decimal separator, and will put commas in your file in that case.
The hardware hasn't changed much but the software has tremendously and stuff from 2014 isn't relevant. Do you think the current implementation (sometimes known as audio_pwm_mode=2 but it is the default firmware these days) is still poor? I've found it's fine for everyday use and listening to music. I think a line-out would have been fine for people to use.
The Faces of Americans Living in Debt
Given your (dangerously wrong) last sentence, I don't know what to make of the rest of this.
I give this build 'jaffa kree' out of 10.
In my experience GraphQL slows down all teams. If you're on a new project and that's the stack you pick it can work well for a while but as soon as your product is large enough you get multiple GraphQL api's built by different teams that don't behave in a similar fashion. If you're in an org with historical code now you've got APIs that are RESTful and then some which are GraphQL based. Making those work together is either a hack on the frontend or a rewrite project.

Ultimately the thing that speeds up teams, again in my experience, is predictability not flexibility. If you tell someone they have a RESTful API they know exactly how to work with it, document it, etc. GraphQL which is shiny, new, and used by in-vogue orgs is fine, you can use it to get the job done, but I don't believe that it warrants much praise.
Get help.
NSVs break any text-based tools e.g. not only is it hard to view them using standard tooling, you can't diff them either.

And if you're going to use stupid separators, at least use US (0x1F), that's the entire point of that thing.
Why did Mark Zuckerberg spend millions to back Proposition 15?
I've mentioned this elsewhere, and I say this believing that substance abuse is a public health problem and not a criminal one, but:

I'm not sure it's the best idea to give a bunch of people stuck living a lonely life in the suburbs, addicted to social media, and have to pay for their own healthcare, an easier path to hard drugs like heroin. There is no doubt in my mind that decriminalization will make these types of drugs easier to obtain.
These are some really good ideas, thanks for posting. I especially like the overlays, and the slow-mo effect idea.

HDR also seems interesting, I am not sure if the Pi's camera supports fast bursts but I will look into it.

I don't know why I haven't thought about post processing yet, seems like a must, probably I'll start with this.
That's really scary and a poor choice that something which is probably buried deep in the car, and costs thousands of dollars to remove and replace, is a soldered onboard flash drive which will fail from constant use.

I'd be surprised if tesla didn't have embedded systems engineering responsible for this thing, and indeed even flash memory experts on staff, who are intimately familiar with all of the design problems of flash memory write wear leveling. And they went ahead and send that design to production anyways?
... and the "mixer"/"tumblr" operator, and anyone who hacked them.

Law enforcement is increasingly targeting these mixers, there was a recent case were one operator was criminally charged[0] for not having a "money service license". I am willing to bet that, as part of a plea deal, all past logs they keep (which is likely all of them to day one) will be provided to FinCEN, which may or may not make it public at some point.

FinCEN is a few notches below the NSA. It's not your cousin Jerry, true, but it's a lot less than "only the NSA". And the history is immutable - it's possible, even likely, that 20 years from now, many mixer logs will have become public enough. Anything on the blockchain stays there for posterity.

So, how is it measured in practice ?
Or: “how many milliseconds does it take to echo a keystroke in slack”?
If alcohol was as restricted as MDMA, we just might start calling alcohol a therapy tool. But right now anyone (of legal age) who wants it can order a glass of wine or two, so the people that benefit from it have it. Nobody thinks twice.

You sound incredulous that psilocybin or mdma could be therapy tools. Are you a psychologist? Do you have any firsthand experience with these chemicals? Why are you skeptical?
Or ASCII 0x1E - record separator. They have a similar downside though: you can't easily type them and a lot of text editors won't render them by default.
OP here. We all know leadership behaviors that lead to success, but what do we need to watch out for? How do we really prioritize what activities to focus on for new managers? I was recently helping somebody through this question, and decided to pen my thoughts for a broader audience.
>Excel neither reads nor writes UTF-8 CSV files without jumping through hoops.

It's literally as simple as selecting "csv utf-8" when saving. When opening excel also handles it automatically if it has BOM.
As something of a war-weary veteran - I disagree.

It's a good instinct to be suspicious of new technology. But I have personally seen, many times, what REST APIs can grow into - unless you are very, very careful, "get user/1" can turn into god objects with every field under the sun, non-optional. I've seen `users/l` be over a megabyte with (eg) comments, friends, comments of friends, likes, likes of friends, and every other thing the front end team ever asked for. GraphQL solves that.

Yes, it can be avoided with strict, diligent design. But it often isn't. GraphQL solves the whole class of problem. And that's why I like it, despite my mistrust of "new hotness" technology.
I'm not so sure if that's the only thing people voted for when they wanted to be hard on drugs. As you can see in this comment thread (on an extremely left-leaning site) we have some people who think drug use is immoral. One of the sister comments says "I believe it's wrong".

Definitely some section of the population wanted to use this as a way to bully minorities but another section of the population was convinced "drugs are bad".

Either way if "hard on drugs" was a dog whistle to signal "hard on minorities" then politicians may realize saying "hard on drugs" will actually hurt their voter base far more than they realized. Maybe that will put an end to this kind of signalling/abuse.
You can get away with structured formats only when everything is fully automated, which works for APIs, but anything that needs human review will almost always be opened in Excel. That rules out anything fancy like JSON. Excel supports XML, but it think most people don’t know how to use that, and I suspect it would only be useful for simple tabular data — not complex structures. Many/most business processes are not 100% automated, so you just have to fall back on something that works with standard business tools (Excel).
First major modular nuclear project having difficulty retaining backers
Electricity in France is almost 50% cheaper than in Germany and Denmark [1], so I guess nuclear was more cost effective.

The world of SIA and SDG is a very, very different world to that of classical analysis. If you think that they "should not produce different results", then

(a) you're either wrong or incredibly optimistic regarding our ability to carefully rephrase the statements of classical analysis in a way that works constructively.

(b) what would be the point of a harder-to-use system that offers exactly the same results, anyway? The whole reason I find SDG interesting is that it will eventually be simpler to use, and because it provides an entirely fresh of the number line.
API routes is what they refer to with the Next.js BFF approach: https://nextjs.org/docs/api-routes/introduction

It’s useful if you need to call an API from the client in a Next.js application but modify the data first, or call multiple endpoints without introducing a waterfall to the client. What you described can be used in a similar way for filtering and processing etc, but only for the initial page load.

Stewart’s reaction about it all, how he was “amazed” about the sitting and the bread, it was all “how can one be Persian?”. How can one eat this bread? How can one sit on these pillows? How can one eat with his hands? To top it all, the scene needed the white character’s approval that that was indeed very good food.

There was also literally a black-face scene further in the movie, which even for the late 1950s it was a strange thing to film.
I was also surprised a study was done to write about government policy incentives. Seems obvious.

USA has a policy to subsidize corn production. This has led to a huge chemical-doused monocrop, corn syrup in most packaged food, and blending it in to gasoline fuel as "E85".

None of these outcomes are particularly good.
0x1e (Record Separator) would replace the newline, for row values it's 0x1f (Unit Separator) you want.
I loved SGU but then again, I was doing a dissociative called DXM at the time (stupid teen I was) so I actually "felt" (well, actually the opposite happens) the plot, it was amazing.

I started with SGA, that got me into Stargate. I watched the entire SGA series, and SG-1 did not live up to the entertainment SGA provided for me. Make no mistake, I like SG-1 too, but I love SGA the most for its entertainment value (I laughed a lot), and I love SGU for its drama, not so much laughter, I did not actually laugh I think but I was immersed into the plot. SGA for fun/survival/exploration, SGU for drama/survival/exploration. SG-1 was kind of everything in all fairness, but I missed Rodney McKay and John Sheppard from it. They made SGA amazing for me, along with the occasional Zelenka. :D

SG-1 aired when I was a kid, I hated Stargate when I was a kid, but as an adult, I fucking love it. I still get nostalgic over it sometimes. The actors are so old and different now. :(

The irony here is palpable. You replied to an accusation of ad hominem with a very salient point and then followed it up with vapid rhetoric that taints your analysis with the same level of bias as the article author.
Picostrap, a 100% Free WordPress Bootstrap starter theme with built-in SCSS
You might be interested in having a look at our new FREE project, picostrap:
a 100% free and GPL Bootstrap 4 WordPress Starter Theme / sass playground.

It's built focusing on a zero bloat philosophy, and removing all WP extra tags to "bring" the page as similar as possible at the original minimalistic Bootstrap 4 documentation examples to allow for great PageSpeed results, but it's most peculiar aspect is that it has a built-in php SCSS compiler, merged with the simple Customizer interface.
It will also process your sassy CSS code automatically, watching your /sass folder inside the theme.
No need to install command line tools.
It has a Livereload feature too.
Aww... I thought HN post was triggered by it release (or at least date), but sadly this is not a case.

To me, targeting Deno is the major difference.
It's also very variable on the individual level and you have to know your body. For example if I eat even a little in the morning it's impossible for me to fast and I'll be hungry mad by midday. But if I only drink coffee and have a lot of work to do the day can pass smoothly without feeling hungry. Also dependent on the type of food for me, food dense in proteins and fats can feed me for the day, while with carbs I'll be hungry a few hours after.
Interesting. That means that Twitter's implementation is one that is against the law, as it required me to log in before I could unsubscribe. It also only unsubscribed me from "that type of email", so lo and behold, more spam arrived a few days later.

I agree with this. I do believe, that if youre writing a prototypical, client facing, transactional application, a web framework is very useful.

I also advice any individuals coming from Django or friends to use a web framework.

But after some time spent with the stdlib, and understanding how some of those implementations work, it gets to the point where Id rather not read another set of documentation, learn a new mental model, and deal with bugs. This all comes with a framework.

After awhile you realize that the stdlib provides most of what you need, and that writing more vanilla Go can be simpler then learning a full framework.

I will admit, most my work in Go revolves around internal services, and dont deal with web technologies such as CSRF and CORS. So I do acknowledge my opinion here is leaned toward those use cases.
> Please stop making random guesses about my life.

I'm not second-guessing anything. I'm referring to the facts stated in the article. You would do well to do the same instead of trying to run away from the discussion by going on a tangent with ad-hominens and other fictional grasping at straws.

> That probability is extremely low.

That's extremely ignorant and irresponsible of you to say, but this blend of mindlessness and narcisism and sociopathy does explain why you are hell-bent on fighting for your right to party while other people die all around you.
>> When the automaker changes that code, do you really want it back?

The license was never about "the community". In this case it's about the owner of the car having the ability to modify it.

Most people dont want to modify the software they use, but those that use these licenses want the people who use their code to have that option.

>> If you love our industry, please help your fellow devs by giving them the maximum ability to use your work in their own work so that they can create businesses, pay the bills, hire other devs, and so on and so forth.

That's quite literally asking to use someone else's work for your own profit. Someone else asked about royalties and I think I see room for a license that would prevent such exploitation without compensation. That would be a commercial license.

What is the most supported or disputed NBER article?
VM data centers. One of these machines can be loaded up with ram and host tons and tons of instances without over provisioning. Some of those VMs will be mostly idle, but others will be at full workloads, depending on the tenants.

Also, there are sites like Source Hut or Travis that run thousands upon thousands of CI jobs every minute. I worked at a place where we were resizing thousands of photos and hundreds of incoming videos ever minute. One of these could easily replace 10~20 nodes in a transcoding farm for companies that do these types of workloads on physical servers.

There are tons of commercial applications that would keep these things busy during business hours, and some that would also keep them busy 24/7.
They could already access hard drugs.

The law provides a lot of additional funding to mental health and substance abuse programs, which could actually help people in those situations.

Decriminalization has worked extremely well elsewhere (it dramatically reduced substance abuse problems); hopefully it will in the US as well.
