Who says you get to put a microphone and a camera in there?

You work with what you have. Ideally you'd have a microphone, but maybe that robot vacuum cleaner of your target doesn't have one. And maybe you also don't have access to other devices which have one.

But, TBH, I wouldn't be surprised if today's vacuum cleaners have a microphone in them. "For voice commands", you know?

Recently I bought another TP-Link HS110 Wifi Plug, and while working on reading it automatically every couple of seconds with a Python script, I noticed that a response contained a field labeled "mic_type":"IOT.SMARTPLUGSWITCH". "mic_type"?

Some time ago the German router producer "AVM" had to explain why their DECT smart-plugs had a microphone in them.
Edit: I really should have said sorry to hear about your health troubles. All the best!

People have been told it’s healthy to drink “in moderation” so many times. I think it’s good to dispel that myth. People can still drink as an indulgence, just like they can skydive as an indulgence. No amount of skydiving will _decrease_ the likelihood of you falling 3km to your death.

Seems i am not the only one who wants to know whether the M1 neural engine is performant enough for prototyping :)

It will be interesting how long the other deep learning frameworks will need to support the M1. Pytorch has not yet achieved comparable performance on a TPU compared to tensorflow.
you can make common styles for things like buttons, if you watch adams tutorials videos, they cover this reasonably early on

I learned Vue 2 a couple years ago for use during personal projects. It's been nothing short of a joy to work with (even though there have certainly been some beginner frustrations). Vue presents topics clearly and implements them in ways that allow me to be productive without getting caught up in the Webpack and transpiler madness. For the same point from Swimm - you can add as much or as little Vue to a project (can personally attest to this point).

Vue is less ceremonious than Angular and that's a huge selling point in my opinion. I have pity on folks who have to learn Angular.

I've never touched React. Given that React is so popular, (I imagine) there to exist a superb amount of info on the web targeted towards beginner and getting started audiences to make it difficult to wade through all of the bullshit. There's significantly less bullshit on the web about Vue which I find helpful because that generally means the existing content is not totally beginning oriented. Maybe I'm biased on this topic idk.
Not only is it productive and maintainable, it's super performant! I work on systems with very limited power, so it's been a godsend in fixing performance for machines that can't handle all this "CSS in JS".

Howdy there! I was one of the original authors of OpenEMR back in high school. I'm still good friends with at least one of the other authors. We're always stunned to see OpenEMR in the news, and watching it creep up on HackerNew today has been fun.

I've always been curious why OpenEMR seemed to dominate in the OSS space after we walked away from it. I can only theorize that the code was more approachable than other projects (PHP), and that the GPL kept the work from being captured by any one business. I can't imagine that the code was the best, I'm painfully aware of how poor the security practices must have been in hindsight.

You've given me the chance to ask a question I never knew who to ask: Why, back in 2003 (just after we stopped giving the project attention), was OpenEMR the project you decided to spend time on? What made it the attractive thing to invest in?

If you can tell me I'll bottle that elixir and pour it into every OSS effort I work on today.
The problem with the hamburger method is that it is recognizably dishonest. Everyone knows the structure by now, everyone knows that the positives at either end are just there to cushion the negative. So positive feedback in a hamburger will not only be undervalued, it won't be believed at all.

Excluding mexico where a ClearHealth derivative still, as far as I know, powers one of the large hospital chains there, no. In my personal experience the venn diagram of countries where there is not much regulation but yet it is advanced enough medically that EMR is a primary problem is pretty much zero. To put it another way most countries where regulation is low have much more pressing medical needs than software.

I think it's not a question of Vue vs React, though they both help create reactive frontends, but the right comparison is Vue vs Svelte because of similarity in approach. Vue3 is replica of Svelte's approach but Svelte is hands down the better of the two.

In my opinion, the next version of Svelte which embeds Sapper into the framework would be the ultimate death of Vue, and really challenge the dominance of React/NextJS!

Almost all front-end engineers I know or I've watched on twitch or youtube, do the ranking as:

1- React (because of career potentials)

2- Svelte (because it's actually the best experience)

3- Vue, ember, ...

Easy Device Configuration for Your Pi Projects
This is the reason we send our children to a Waldorf school. Most of the parents don't buy their kids phones or let them have unfettered, unsupervised access to the internet and devices. This means our kids are not desperate to fit in with the other kids.

Our kids are very creative as a result and are constantly doing things and playing and have good social skills.
Maybe, but don't give up your day job. Financial health and personal health are both important.

I've been programming for 43 years (since I was kid) and worked as a programmer for about 20 years. In the last 17 years, I've seen the switch from exploration, creativity, open-ended thinking to this new thing called "tech." I am not a "tech." I guess I've quit tech, and won't become a "tech." I miss working as a programmer - I had pretty good jobs. Beware as workplaces in other industries can be much more toxic.

From what I gather, no one is hiring programmers: "the programming part is easy", "solo programmers need not apply", "scrum", buzzwords, horrible marketing, bad management, and worse. I have a day job not in "tech", and not as a programmer. On the side, I program for me. I read and post what's interesting to me on Hacker News and other programming sites.

One of the issues for the traditional map makers is their ability to keep up with updates. It requires a massive infrastructure to quickly discover and submit all the small changes that goes on in the real world all the time. One of the few viable ways is crowdsourcing. So over time, the traditional maps degrades in quality, while OSM continuously gets better.

> there are times when a completely free market doesn't serve the best interest of society

In my opinion the best interests of society are best served by letting people make their own decisions regarding themselves and their own property, and not by aggression or deliberate attempts at social engineering. I tend to be pro-market on average but really it's not the market I'm interested in so much as liberty. I also take a very expansive view of what the market entails; not just materialistic concerns but the full spectrum of human preferences. Does it always lead to a perfect outcome? Of course not. No system comprised of fallible and incompletely-informed human beings could possibly do that. It's just better than all the alternatives.

All the human failings which prevent markets from achieving optimal results are also problems for the various political schemes that aim to regulate them, magnified by the introduction of force as a "legitimate" means of achieving the desired end state. (It's ironic, for example, that people turn to governments to save them from monopolies—mostly government-created monopolies—when the government itself is the biggest monopoly of them all.)

In the end the real goal isn't to make people "happy"—we could do that much more easily with drugs. Rather, it's to ensure that people can live their lives the way that they choose, so that they can seek happiness, or purpose, or whatever else means the most to them. The fact that people make choices that (in someone else's opinion) probably won't make them happier is not sufficient justification for taking away their freedom to choose for themselves. I happen to think the moral, principled position also happens in this case to be the one that leads to the best outcomes for the most people from a purely materialistic point of view, but this is merely a happy coincidence; it would still be the right thing to do even if it resulted in abject poverty.
Since more companies are hiring engineers in Toledo, competition is higher and pay should rise as well. More importantly I think, good engineers in Toledo don't have to leave Toledo to find gainful employment so they stay and the general economy in Toledo should be stronger.

It doesn't have to return anything else. Just the entry you listed would be fine. But for me, and for my wife, that is not in the results.

Remember that your Google results are not the same as anyone else's. It's spent billions to "tailor" the results for each human on the planet. At the same time, making the results worthless.

I created Floward to help myself think and write more freely. Many apps I've used to write/journal let me edit my writing as I go. I've found this flexibility a bit distracting, and wanted an opinionated tool that forces me to simply... keep writing.

So far, I think Floward is useful for...
1. Getting over writer's block
2. Expressing complicated thoughts when journaling/reflecting

In some ways I see this as an anti-perfectionism writing tool. Would definitely appreciate input and feedback!

If we assume Seoul is largely destroyed, the economic damage I'm thinking of comes from a few different places, not from the war going on but from the aftermath. Many people could die, causing both a loss of expertise and simple manpower. Housing would be destroyed, such that those that did survive would need emergency housing. The massive destruction of property would burn up trillions of dollars in real estate investment. And lastly, specialized commercial and industrial properties would be destroyed. I don't know to what degree Seoul is an industrial capital, but there's likely some of this at least.
> over-use or use in an inappropriate context, so that you no longer seem genuine. Even if the other person doesn't know about NVC, it becomes painfully obvious that you're doing something different and not communicating normally.

I use 2 categories to break down people who talk about NVC - those who think the words matter, and those who don't.

It is impossible to tell if someone is practising NVC by listening to the specific words. NVC is about reactions and interpretations. Specific word formulas are tools for beginners and so anyone using them is probably not great at NVC. That gives NVC an undeserved bad name; it really is the most sensible way to communicate. There isn't such a thing as 'overusing' NVC, it is for full time use.
>“The account is a Citi product, but customers get the best of both worlds with the Google ecosystem,” he said. The “traditional banking model is evolving” and partnerships are becoming a key part of the industry’s future, Selva said.

The traditional banking system may have its flaws, but I don't like the idea of this tech partnered banking evolution.

I really dislike the way these tech companies keep trying to integrate into every aspect of people's lives.

I don't want some overarching giant company to be responsible for the management of everything in my life.

It's really starting to feel like some kind of corporate dystopian fiction sometimes.

These companies want everybody contained under their silos where every single part of their lives is integrated with one of their systems.

Everything from your health, your banking, your food, everything you buy, everything you do, everywhere you go, all carefully, tracked monitored and integrated with, Google, Apple, Facebook, Amazon, etc.'s insulated bubble where all your daily life exists within things provided by whichever company you happened to choose...or hell...born into.

Also binged with the gf.

We found it enjoyable in a way similar to that of Girls: the protaganist is loathsome due to their narcissistic portrayal, and incredibly naive. This makes it enjoyable as you find yourself rooting against them and laughing at their failures.

We also found it annoying in a way similar to the recent Oceans movie. Rather than the protaganist defeating the antagonist, the protagonist wins them over with their revealed inner and outer beauty, and all-tagonists become cute, unlikely friends.

Yes. And although much of what Netflix does is in-house, it’s done the math and realized that for some of its workloads, AWS is just better. Especially when looking at all of the areas where Netflix is available and needs datacenters and in some of the specific compute options Netflix needs. It’s not serving traffic through AWS. It’s using AWS for storage and compute.

that sounds like a not-great designer, tbh. Which happens often, what I usually do is not take everything in the design at face value: 28px is actually 32px, which is 8rem, which is `w-something`.

It really needs to be 28px this time for some sorta-legit reason? Fine, add a semantic class (or id) for it that's not part of your tailwind framework, kind of dropping down to "usual" CSS

This becomes even more complex in the case of java, at least I'm the most familiar with java. And yes, at work, we are distributing jar/war-files built on linux to linux and windows targets, and back in the day to solaris as well. BSD has been prototyped as well on a late friday night. That was funny.

However, you could use gcj (for java < 1.4? Not sure) to create standalone systems. And apparently, you can throw java at LLVM to get runnable binaries. So maybe java doesn't even need a runtime?

And on the other hand, once JNA/JNI comes into play, portability of jar files becomes ... interesting. This is similar to the usual hell of python with C dependencies.

All in all, I don't understand the criteria from the article enough to evaluate that knowledge into a statement.

Skills are not a real barrier. Data quality and license are. When you look at official datasets, you find ways to screw up you never thought were possible

People in USA still complain about the botched TIGER import [1].

It may sound flippant, but I'd rather not have such end-to-end tutorial geared towards imports be made. It'd lower the barrier too much. People who self-taught GIS (it's possible) can be trusted to be marginally more responsible (not fully, though).

[1] TL;DR the OSM road networks in USA was initially imported from TIGER dataset. However the importing mappers didn't know TIGER was being updated, state by state. Hence, the quality of imported data is not great in many places.

Superficially, it is a lot more like an educational internship (unpaid work experience incorporated as part of an academic program) than an education fellowship (a scholarship, funded internally by an educational institution or externally by some other entity, that pays for graduate study, sometimes tied to work [0].)

It's interesting to me because, although I'm not frontend so have limited experience with those, I have the exact opposite opinion of Vue.

> Vue is Lightweight and Flexible

> Vue is less intrusive than React

The standard React might be heavy, but the core reactive code and the part I use are definitely much lighter. It's just reconciliating virtual dom trees that are explicitly built by my code. Vue hooks into all data objects, to react to mutation. Vue includes a whole templating language, that have control structures in addition to JSX features (v-if, v-for, ...). Vue is supposed to be used in .vue files, that are a unique way to organize code, and is going to require special support for your editor, linters, and other tools.

> The html/css and JS are separate while in React everything is in JS.

My HTML is at the bottom of my my JSX file, in the render() method I keep at the bottom. My CSS is in CSS files. In Vue, the correct way seems to be using the <template> and <style> sections of the .vue file. Is that more separate?

I have nothing against Vue per se, and opinionated frameworks have their merits, but do Vue developers agree with the author's stance?
