Probably an interesting read.

But, as always, predicting the future is not possible, even when looking at the past.

But we can, to some extent, predict the outcome of things that are already happening. Not too hard if someone jumped out of a plane without parachute, and even then you'll need an error margin.
Odd, Chrome says "NET::ERR_CERT_REVOKED" but firefox and openssl command line seem fine with it.

Furthermore -- looking at the security info in Chrome shows 'valid'!
Anybody have an actual link to the study? The article is pay-walled.
Well, you could say also something like “most modern hardware is little-endian, so it would make more sense to go the other way.” For those who don’t know, you know?
Yes. I'd love to see a Firefox Sync implementation for Chromium, which would make it easier for people who use Firefox but occasionally need to run Chromium to open something that doesn't bother to handle browser compatibility.
> The syncing part was open source

Well depends on your definition of open source. Most of the code for the sync, as well as these other internal APIs, is on Google's backend and is very much closed source. The thin client code calling these APIs may have been in Chromium, but as a general rule of thumb, I wouldn't really call Google Translate and Sync open source.

Google provides the code for Chromium, but I'm not sure why there's an expectation that they should also freely provide internal APIs which require backend servers. What other open source software provides such guarantees?

> I wonder if they could in theory just grab the key from chrome

I saw some discussion of that in the discussion group. I believe it would break their terms and services for distros to do it, not sure if an individual could on their own though.
This is very accurate estimate. Frankly, I very much doubt many people would leave half empty wine bottle for weeks or months.
Exactly. Just reading those quotes (haven't read the linked article) leads me to think that you can't ignore the huge liabilities comprised of education, medical care and pensions.
Does anyone have a link to the actual study? Whatever study they’re referencing is behind the story’s paywall.

There are alternatives that pump in a gas. The cheap ones are ~$15 and last for 40 bottle "refills".
I do....And im very cognizant of that. In many cases i will be doing catch up or research, alpha testing something that may have a use case at work. I often spend nights reading things like net sec blogs etc and sometimes it will pertain to work. For example CISA guidance posts on Sparrow and CTR etc. Rather than post them as a reminder to looking into them in the am, I will hold messages BECAUSE i dont want to give the impression that i want them to read it or respond during personal time.

And in fact I have interjected into late sessions i wasnt a party to to ask parties to suspend their tshooting when i found out it was happening and it wasnt really....critical. My developers specifically can work some odd hours, which is perfectly fine, but they cant abuse my on call ops shifts for it at their leisure.

Or in cases where its needed, they are given comp time starting at 1.5x time to make up for it. Often times it more than that.

Not all work places act like the employee is cattle. Many do see the people as an asset.
Ultimately the buck stops there, regardless of whether they were directly responsible.

If this happened it’s because they built or facilitated a culture that does these things.
The article mentioned pouring an opened bottle into a half-sized (presumably glass) bottle, but I'm surprised it didn't suggest pouring the wine into a plastic PET bottle, and then squeezing all the air out.

It's a trick I've seen suggested elsewhere before, and one that I've used often myself — it certainly beats paying a hefty sum for a Coravin or VacuVin!
Many people just see the mostly dishonest by-lines on Google Search talking about how the Australian government is threatening media in Australia and formulate their decision based on that.

Honestly, if I had to choose to support either a tech giant with an enormous amount of control over the content we consume and surround ourselves with, or a media giant with an enormous amount of control over the content we consume and surround ourselves with, I am going to have a hard time choosing. Ultimately, we lose either way - either traditional media remains entrenched, or it remains prohibitively difficult for all content producers (especially smaller, independent ones) to effectively produce content in a way which is not cost-prohibitive. Maybe the code being considered should be reconsidered - but that does not seem to be up for question.

Still, I hope Australia calls Google’s bluff, because this style of negotiation should send chills down the spine of people who support a democratic society. It is purely in bad faith - it is not a fair negotiation of one party with enormous bargaining power makes this kind of ultimatum at the first hurdle. Also, despite Murdoch’s media empire being behind legislative efforts here, even the ABC is behind it. I take Aunty’s opinions on these kinds of things quite seriously, and if they think this action from Google is damaging, I am inclined to agree.

I prefer to refer to it as metabolic syndrome rather than obesity (even though they're not strictly identical) just to reinforce the point that it's going to likely lead to early mortality if left untreated.
This bit was interesting:

“ If you want a longer shelf life, you can buy your own canister of inert gas, and spray that into the half bottle (or even the full bottle) to displace the oxygen. These canisters aren’t cheap, and there’s no real way to know when you’ve sprayed enough gas into the bottle, so most people overshoot out of an abundance of caution, and they don’t end up being great value for the money.”

It probably depends on the gas that is used. Argon is probably best, because it’s heavier than Oxygen. So a even small amount should form a seal just above the wine.

However, gravity’s effect on any gas will be minor.
If you have to ask, you're doing it wrong.

Can I suggest trying Groovy (properly, not in the form of hacking together gradle or jenkins scripts, but as an application language)?

It's basically what you want but unlike the other "dead" languages it is designed to complement Java rather than compete with it and is unlikely to ever become obsolete for that reason.

I don't know the details of this story, but we don't have many freight trains in New York City. It's an island, and the nearest rail bridge to the mainland is upstate (280 mile detour!). There is some car float traffic to Brooklyn, there is an occasional freight train in the Bronx near the Metro North tracks, but in general, it's not really a thing in NYC.

I am guessing this particular incident concerns the LIRR's coach yard in the aptly-named neighborhood of Hudson Yards, or NJT/Amtrak's yard in Sunnyside. Either way, it doesn't have much to do about bringing goods into the cities. This is instead a good-old commuters-versus-residents thing.

For those using Bazel this looks like a pretty helpful example
of developing and releasing a cross-platform Python package with native-libs (C++ in this case).

I've wondered for a while how Deepmind manages their (Python & C++) codebase. This is a small window into that I think, and you can see that they're likely using internal 'Blaze' Python rules and rely on the maintenance of compatibility with the open-source Bazel rules. `py_library` is used in `tree/BUILD`, but it is not loaded explicitly as is expected with Bazel these days; the rule definition is loaded by Bazel implicitly.

> Much too expensive for a casual buy, but will be great if I ever get into wine. It’s cool to know it’s possible at all.

When you get into wine (and assuming you are sharing it with someone) you will very likely discover that a bottle does not last more than a couple of hours.

Another mind flip: the scarce resource isn't labor - but energy.

Edit: A gallon of oil is equivalent to roughly 400 hours of human labor. Manual work is nothing compared to the energy contained in fossil fuels (or external energy sources in general). An argument could be made that the economy is in decline due to this, that the sources of fossil fuels are getting more expensive. Most of the cheap sources have been used up already. There is still a lot of oil left, but it's a lot more expensive (offshore, fracking) to extract than it used to, and it's getting worse.

Ask HN: What Is the Point of Dbt?
I have a SQL Server/ETL/DBA background and have been getting into software and Python work over the last 5 years. I'm reading about data build tool, I don't get the benefit of this tool. It seems like you have to use dbt to write SQL, then dbt translates that SQL into more SQL, and then it runs it against the db/dw, potentially leaves a bunch of new tables/views out there, and then you source control the code you wrote.

Is the point of this tool to avoid hiring a DBA or people who know intermediate SQL? SQL is already declarative, so I don't understand how dbt helps with determining order of execution on all the CTEs it makes. A DBA will create all the objects needed for an organization, rightsize the datatypes on the fields in the tables, create/tune the procedures needed for any calls, create the keys for referential integrity, and model the whole thing so it isn't garbage.

The one cool thing I've seen so far is that it can leverage Jinja to dynamically make SQL. Other than that, what does dbt do that a decent DBA can't?
Indeed, this is stating the obvious. If you are an active fat person, you are still a fat person - which is the important point.

I got curious about this once and looked up the life expectancy of sumo wrestlers. It anyone is “fit but fat” it would be them.

They have very high bmi’s, ~35. But they’re just barely obese by body fat, about 26%. Result is a life expectancy of 60-65, more than ten years shorter than the Japanese male.

“ The negative health effects of the sumo lifestyle can become apparent later in life. Sumo wrestlers have a life expectancy between 60 and 65, more than 10 years shorter than the average Japanese male, as the diet and sport take a toll on the wrestler's body. Many develop type 2 diabetes or high blood pressure, and they are prone to heart attacks due to the enormous amount of body mass and fat that they accumulate. The excessive intake of alcohol can lead to liver problems and the stress on their joints due to their excess weight can cause arthritis. Recently, the standards of weight gain are becoming less strict, in an effort to improve the overall health of the wrestlers.”

Why would something so existentially important such as a 'security model' be blocked at the code-level, let alone 'code being checked in'?

Traditional financial systems can be abused[0] but they do bring us tremendous value for our societies.

I can see how people can make snide and cynical remarks about that, but you know it is true and making such remarks in this context are frankly dishonest in my view.

Because they distract from the fact that Bitcoin or any other crypto currency doesn't provide any tangible benefit to our societies. It benefits a few (lambo money) to the detriment of the many.

And let's not forget Bitcoin made the Silk Road and its successors possible.

And meanwhile, so many smart people are wasting their life on crypto currencies. And meanwhile, so much energy is wasted on this.

Joint association of physical activity and body mass index with cardiovascular risk: a nationwide population-based cross-sectional study

https://doi.org/10.1093/eurjpc/zwaa151
Are the things under "Things I've changed my mind on" things you believe now, or have stopped believing?

(Can't tell which way the change of mind is.)
Here's a (non-paywalled) press release from the journal: https://www.escardio.org/The-ESC/Press-Office/Press-releases...

> The researchers investigated the associations between each BMI and activity group and the three risk factors. At all BMI levels, any activity (whether it met the WHO minimum or not) was linked with a lower likelihood of diabetes, high blood pressure or high cholesterol compared to no exercise at all. Dr. Lucia said: “This tells us that everyone, irrespective of their body weight, should be physically active to safeguard their health.”

> However, overweight and obese participants were at greater cardiovascular risk than their peers with normal weight, irrespective of activity levels. As an example, compared to inactive normal weight individuals, active obese people were approximately twice as likely to have high cholesterol, four times more likely to have diabetes, and five times more likely to have high blood pressure. Dr. Lucia said: “Exercise does not seem to compensate for the negative effects of excess weight. This finding was also observed overall in both men and women when they were analysed separately.”

> He concluded: “Fighting obesity and inactivity is equally important; it should be a joint battle. Weight loss should remain a primary target for health policies together with promoting active lifestyles.”

I don't totally follow the establishment of causation here - in particular, it would seem to me like the arrow of causation is likely to go from diabetes to inability to lose weight, instead of vice versa? That is, equally active people with diabetes probably weigh more than people without, and the underlying cause is not their weight, it's their diabetes. So the conclusion in the press release that they should lose weight to get rid of their diabetes doesn't obviously make sense to me.
Wait? There are people that willingly upload all their browser data to Google?
I find it problematic how they turn overweight != healthy into chubby != healthy. Sure we all know (I think) that over- (or worse under-wight) is not health. But a obsession with forcefully trying to gain a specific wight can easily be much less health then being slightly overweight.
A Criticism of Stochastic Parrots
A pilot who ejects over enemy territory is almost certain to be captured. Obviously, a pilot who ejects on a training flight over Tonopah isn't going to get captured, and thus my statement about a pilot being captured would not apply to such a training flight where there is zero risk of capture. The numbers you've made up mean nothing, even if they were correct, which they aren't. Nearly no aircraft have a 50 year lifespan, and any aircraft shot down over enemy territory is going to end up with the pilot almost certainly either killed or captured, just as I said.

You're adding in all kinds of things that have no bearing on the discussion and don't mean anything in the context of the discussion. And the numbers you made up are silly.

Well with the raw histogram you can evaluate exactly the extent of the raw clipping, which is good for honing your exposures later.

But the key is a highlight color inpainting algorithm borrowed from RawTherapee that reconstructs color channels based on the unclipped channels. On skin you get very smooth gradients at the edge of clipped areas and the highlight reconstruction is particularly free of artifacts.

But that needs to be brought into a reasonable brightness range for output. The tone mapping from the film simulation works well on skin to preserve color when darkening highlights.

That particular photo has both the blue and green color channels clipped, but the red channel let Filmulator reconstruct plausible data flawlessly. Here's the raw histogram from that file: https://i.imgur.com/NLZeM5h.png

Of course. But then you'd have to do it while right next to an airport, which is a quick ticket to jail.

In practice, the aircraft will do a go around then proceed with ATC vectoring or inertial navigation.
I disagreed with this - although it may be a matter of expectations. We use our vacuvin to keep partials for a day or two, and they keep much better with it than with a cork. I’m not trying to keep wine for a week, and I prefer to keep reds out on the counter - fridge cold red tastes horrible to me, and who wants to wait for it to warm up?

That said, reading about the eto has sent me down a rabbit hole on Amazon. I’m seriously considering ordering a wine squirrel now!
