This is great and all, but it has to be 100% utterly completely reliable with no false-negatives.

If it doesn't tell you (i.e. false negative) even once, then you can guarantee that it will never be trusted ever again, especially by the birth parent.

We've gone through a range of frankly awful monitors and cameras that simply were not reliable. E.g. cameras that would regularly go offline for maintenance between 3am & 4am (precisely when you need it...), or cameras that would freeze and show you a sweetly sleeping silent baby that turned out to be simply a frozen frame from 45 minutes previously etc and the live stream had failed, cameras that would lose wifi for no reason that required intricate sequences of button-holding-down-for-x-seconds-then-tapping-then-releasing-etc (not great when you've had about 30 minutes of sleep over the past 36 hours), app-connected things with awful apps that crash or don't quite work right unless you do things in the exact right order etc. We even ended up with a digital clock in-frame for a while so when we looked at the video we could tell if it was "live" or not... this is how unreliable a lot of baby monitors you find on amazon or high street retail.

Once these things fail you once, they cannot be trusted again. Ever.

Perhaps me and my wife are just ultra neurotic, but there you go.

We ended up with a fairly reliable set up for multiple redundancy that seems to work:

- a DECT-based monitor from BT that actually does detect cries (you can entirely mute the intercom but it will audibly-beep and flash a warning if it hears a cry - also does temperature read outs and alerts). 100% ultra bullet-proof reliability so far.

- a Google Nest camera (only camera we found that has been acceptable in terms of reliability & non-shonky app - it does mysteriously "go offline" from time to time, but it sends a notification & and email as well as the app being clear it is offline, and usually recovers on its own fairly quickly). Expensive compared to other options (and not specifically a "baby monitor") but worth it I think (we do not pay for the subscription though)

- an "Owlet" heart-rate and oxygen sensor (although this has poor hardware reliability - the charging port physically crumbles and the "sock" that the sensor goes into is easily moved to a bad position by the baby squirming around.... although the fail-safe there is that it will alert if this happens).
I'm so excited for this ^_^

I was just thinking that what we really want when we say "no-code" is the ability to think in terms of domain specific data structures instead of programming constructs.

Surely, if someone has died, you'd need to export their photos from any online services anyways. I don't really see the issue here.
All of those are blob/file based, when the service provider needs to offer services like search and ways to make deeper inferences between pieces of data it's pretty much impossible to have all the encryption handled client-side.

I'd be interested to see examples/arguments where it works though.
This is a neat idea, but I wish it would respect some basic Unix standards by default. Two big annoyances jump out at first glance: it assumes you want to use port 22120, and it puts its config in ~/22120-arc. Maybe both of these are configurable, but the directory is a terrible default. Use XDG (~/.config/22120) or at least use a hidden directory in the home dir. And the port it operates on should be completely configurable. Naming the project 22120 is a terrible idea, and assuming that port won't need to change is bad practice.

I'm not making any value judgment about the actual tool. It sounds interesting enough. But it should behave better.
I wouldn't trust Amazon's consumer offerings, after they removed the unlimited offering from Amazon (Cloud) Drive [1], and continued to remove API access after that [2].

Not only that, but I have quite a few files that were corrupted on Amazon Drive, so I wouldn't trust them for long-term photo storage either, unless the photos were also backed up to other services.

That’s the right way to do it, stock up on high quality canned and dry foods that you enjoy and then just cycle through the supply. One day you don’t feel like a fancy dinner so you crack open a few cans of chili and some nice mixed veggies, or boil up some noodles or whatever and just replace them every other month or so. Power goes out and you’re still living large instead of eating five year old MREs.

This sounds similar to the PX1000 story:
https://www.cryptomuseum.com/crypto/philips/px1000/nsa.htm and https://www.vpro.nl/argos/lees/nieuws/2020/cryptoleaks-in-th...

PX-1000 was a handheld message terminal, also known as a pocket telex, developed in 1980 by Text Lite in Amsterdam (Netherlands) and sold worldwide by Philips and others. Some versions of it had built-in encryption capability. In the initial version, the DES algorithm was used, but this was later replaced by another algorithm at the request of the US National Security Agency (NSA).
PETSc developer here. You're correct that we don't have a sparse QR. I'm curious about the shapes in your problem and how you use the rank-revealed factors.

If you're a heavy user of SuiteSparse and upset about the license, you might want to check out Catamari (https://gitlab.com/hodge_star/catamari), which is MPLv2 and on-par to faster than CHOLMOD (especially in multithreaded performance).

As for PETSc's preference for processes over threads, we've found it to be every bit as fast as threads while offering more reliable placement/affinity and less opportunity for confusing user errors. OpenMP fork-join/barriers incur a similar latency cost to messaging, but accidental sharing is a concern and OpenMP applications are rarely written to minimize synchronization overhead as effectively as is common with MPI. PETSc can share memory between processes internally (e.g, MPI_Win_allocate_shared) to bypass the MPI stack within a node.
No, it's about window being in a non-exclusive fullscreen mode. It's fullscreen, but at the same time can be on the background underneath other windows. Looks like this:

Not sure about DropBox, but AWS has alot of protections around what goes into S3. I have worked with them to address issues that come up in the service, and they couldn't access our data, even when we would have been fine with it. Had to copy it somewhere else for them.

All they could access was a service logs.

High voltage battery packs are required due to the power required to move a car.

A 50hp engine[1] needs ~37kW which at 5 volts, that is 7,500 amps of current, which requires comically large bus bars (~200x10mm) and conversion electronics. Even at 48 volts[2], you still need ~780 amps, which still requires very large conductors.

At 400 volts, for the same motor, the wiring only needs to be sized for 100 amps, which is reasonably practical (think wire found on welders).

[1]: Let assume that 50hp is the max required steady state output for a motor in a passenger car, and lets ignore any peak/dynamic loads and HVAC as this is napkin engineering

[2]: 48v is generally accepted as the highest voltage before you really need to know what you are doing, though at these power levels, you still should know what you are doing as things like to weld, melt, become bad motors and/or explode.

The article contradicts your assertion. Did you read it?
It's a good thing then that the article only mentions Tesla because they aren't doing this. Tesla is not building the battery into the body, they are taking the safe way out instead. Tesla is just removing a redundant casing from around the packs.

Men tend to score higher in disagreeableness which doesn't bode well with education. Women generally outperform men in school but not on the job market (albeit that's mainly due to the fact they used to work less hours overall because of pregnancy and older people - who had less female competition - get higher salaries).

Men are generally more assertive and better at negotiating. Anti-bias training is teaching interviewers to ignore assertiveness and communication/persuasion skills, to look beyond that and hire shy individuals (which may be fine, unless you're hiring for a leadership / sales role). Interviews reward more people who did their homework over actual job experience, which again favour an academic mindset.
"Fair pay scale" are getting more popular, which means your negotiating skills are less important in order to make money.
The HR field and the sociology field are dominated by women who of course can push and convince companies about the best way to move forward in order to be "inclusive" and look good with the general public (oh and women control 80% of consumer spending).

With hiring conditions levelling the playing fields and women natural better performance in school / academic tasks, it's easy for more women to do better.
Do you remember the pay gap? Well, of course none of those numbers can be trusted because there are tons of variables and skills differences in skills - but if you look at women and men in their 20s, women already outperform men. Older men who faced less competition are still ahead.

But it's not all about money.

Men thrive when they get responsibility. The worsening economy, the crisis doesn't help with that. Women historically had a husband to shield them from this worries; even though that is changing there is still a prevalence of non working women relying on men.

The demonisation of men and masculinity, the repression of men definitely played a role in the increasing number of suicides, which are mainly committed by men.
I guess there is a case to be make that men depression could be the cause of mass shooting and / or radicalisation of young men in terrorist organisations (eg. ISIS, Antifa, etc).

Soldiers dying in wars are primarily men.
Men tend to pursue dangerous jobs, increasing their likelihood of dying.

Divorces affect negatively primarily men.

Tribunals believe women more (see Heard vs Depp for a mainstream recent case and listen to the last phone call they exchanged before divorcing in which Heard admit hitting Depp and doesn't mention any violence in her regards) when things go wrong or when someone decide to cry wolf.

Hope this helps spread awareness.

For private individual usage this should be enough.

In the case of business data governance, though, the legal requirements for storage, security, and privacy go far beyond GDPR. The difficulty there is that even small things such as contact info, appointment locations and dates, timelines, etc. are covered by those contracts.

> I hope TS doesn’t turn JS into Enterprise Java, The Next Generation.

No chance. And frankly, I don't get the comparison you are making to C++/Java/C#. TS is fundamentally different than those languages. From structural typing to a default functional/imperative paradigm, it really is just JS with better static analysis.

Your IDE is not as good for JS as it would be for TS. The entire impetus for TS is/was to provide better tooling/ergonomics around JS. Whether or not you need better tooling is a subjective matter.
This is is a great article on why you should hate journalists and the media.

Then they argue it's ok to break the law and photograph people against their will, as part of the above.

Agreed. We found Baby #1 to at times be a full-time job for two people in the first couple of months.

I don't know your woodworking experience, but I don't think building a crib is dangerous at all. The safety standards are pretty straightforward and they are very clearly spelled out. And for me at least, no mass manufactured piece of furniture is even close to a minimum quality that I'd build myself.

On the other hand, a crib is a particularly annoying piece of furniture to build. First, it has to be able to break down, so that is an engineering challenge if you don't have experience with that. Second, it is a particularly monotonous thing to build, especially if you go with spindles all the way around. Cutting, sanding, assembling and finishing ~50-60 spindles is a lot of very boring work. So you may have dodged a bullet on that one.
Haha. I’m definitely sounding a bit that way. Though, it’s opensource, so nobody needs to be sold on it.

We’re too deep in Notion internally to jump to something else now, but if was going to try anything else, given the Linear.app team’s track record, this would definitely be my first evaluation.

No they don’t. Most people in the US are getting married between 25-30 and there’s an entire community of women out there finding it difficult to find a man because social and economic trends have pushed the norm outwards and young men don’t want to marry hyper-selective women.

If there are any pending parents reading this, get all those outstanding things done now.

"We'll do that once baby is born" - nope! Get the nursery set up as best you can, get the buggy/stroller unpacked and assembled, get a stockpile of nappies/diapers, fix that broken light switch or dripping tap etc, get the car serviced and the tyres changed etc.

If you have any side-projects (or even games you are playing through) on the go, get them to a good place where you can stop and leave it for a while. I had grand ideas of continuing to hack away at some projects - even if it was just 15-30 minutes at a time - but of course like everyone says there is no time for that. I should have tied things off before baby arrived so things were neat and tidy (i.e. not in the middle or some epic refactor or juggling a bunch of PRs that need to be merged etc), left myself some notes, and then come back to it in 6-9 months when you get a bit more time again.

There wont be time when baby arrives. Good luck! :-)

This is a strawman meant to distract. You should instead ask "Are there significant benefits and incentives to set up a puppet government?" The answer to that is a very obvious yes. You can then ask "Is doing that easier if you can flip votes easily?" The answer to that is a very obvious yes.

Locking screens properly and securely is not entirely trivial.

There is some writing from the author of xscreensaver which makes for fun reading. Displaying the desktop for a few seconds could be the least of your worries. There have been multiple security issues in the past in various screen lockers that let you completely bypass the password screen (probably all fixed today, but who knows what else could be lurking).

Interesting how much emphasis they seem to place on treating TS as precisely JS + types and nothing more, even to the extent of excluding evolutionary TS features.

That does seem a reasonable argument for avoiding enum types in TS. Those have semantics that go beyond how enumerations work in most languages and implementing them in the underlying JS is going to introduce some runtime cost.

I wonder whether their coding standards still permit const enums, though, as they are also new relative to JS but work more like traditional enumerations in C-family languages. These ought to be entirely compiled away, so it seems like the same arguments around efficiency and portability/compatibility wouldn’t apply.
> It's interesting to me that no one had a cassette recorder in class.

Not too surprising given that a cassette tape in the 70's cost several dollars (equivalent to maybe $20 today). It was so expensive it simply didn't occur to people to record such things.

It's like photos. The cheapest 35mm photo cost a buck an image, and this was for slides, not prints. It's why photos of my college career are nearly non-existent. And movie film - forget about it.
