So, does this mean that a library/module written in Racket can be called from an iOS application written in Swift?

Out of curiosity, what other (popular) languages have similar support? Can someone coding an iOS app call snazzy ML/algorithms written in Python/Julia/C/Cpp? Would any language whose compiler is written on top of LLVM be a good candidate?
I'm a proud 2A supporter, but I think this has more roots in HN being a strong "fuck the poor" community and the tenebility of that position usually involves some amount of gun ownership.
POSIX certification is about as useful as a keyboard with a "windows 10 compatible" sticker. Useful for marketing purposes only.

Well that's nimbyism of another sort.

Aside from the concerns of the working class that may be pushed to nimby to protect what little they have, there remains the established rich which nimby for a whole other set of reasons.
Housing in a given neighborhood is actually malthusian. You can not produce land.

Also, defending the in-group is good, actually, when the in-group is 99% of people of lower income.

The problem with Trumpism is the defense of a xenophobic/racist ingroup and economic malthusianism in the production of commodities. There is no issue in and of itself in having a ingroup, especially one that is rabidly inclusive, and no issue recognizing that you cannot endlessly produce more housing on finite land area cities.
Maybe there were less stabbings, poisonings, murders without a weapon, etc?

It's a fair point. In practice, why is it that so many housing markets seem to be broken? Is there a way to fix them, or only mitigation?
Women in Security at Slack
OP didn't make this.
This is my site. But thanks. No SEO tricks. I just wanted to make the site.
To be fair to Wyoming, they have the potential to have an excellent amount of wind power per capita.
An omnichannel messenger that bundles up incoming updates (messages, mentions) from a number of different apps (Slack, email, Jira, etc.) and prioritizes them in a smart way - so that you can address all the important updates within a 1-hour slot a day.

Problem: updates coming from 5-6 different apps during the day distract me from high-impact work that requires focus. However, going radio-silent is not a solution because I may appear rude and miss something important.
This bubble is probably the biggest problem for our society right now. Besides Covid-19...
That one can be attributed to Grace Hopper.
When I first made the site, my wife asked me if I had videos of women doing the exercises. So I added them. Simple as that.
The phrases "a long time", "some time", and "at least a bit" are doing a lot of heavy lifting there. Oxygen has been in the Earth's atmosphere for over 2 billion years. How long, roughly, is "some time"?
Yeah, I actually have a big backlog of videos to edit.
Apparently a true story:

A guy was walking around in a Ruby conference with a shirt that said ":sex" (which is read "sex symbol" in Ruby). Until someone asked him: "I don't get it. Why colon sex?"

Please, no.

I mean, it would be a breaking change, which needs a really compelling case, will make all introductory material wrong, and...offers what benefit?
It's not that black and white. Without APIs people would complain about bad support. Without the Google deal Mozilla would no longer exist. And really, all it is is one little setting you can change once and for all after you install it.
Yeah. I’m sure it is. Borderline personality disorder or something. We need to talk about this though because it’s not an instance of someone waking up one day and thinking “save the babies”, it’s a slow systemic grooming with ever increasing outlandish claims. Slowly warping the mind to believe what you want them to. To control their actions and behavior. It does no one justice to fight them head on. You have to acknowledge their views, empathize, and slowly unravel the web of lies.

I don’t have the qualifications or experience to know how to do that effectively. I’m happier now.
I think another challenge would be balancing moderation between scientific accuracy and general discussion/speculation. Posts on reddit r/science usually become a sea of deleted off-topic comments. The Eternal September problem aside, a bio-focused site would have to be seeded with people of life science backgrounds. It is tempting to just do a Show HN and hope for cross pollination. I suspect, however, the discourse would quickly get dominated by data science/bioinformatics and machine learning on healthcare topics if HN users are the earliest users. Finding a large core group of users with strong biotechnology backgrounds to set the initial tone will be the foremost priority. Life science is ultimately grounded in the wet lab, pure computational hype and speculation without theoretical rigor would just bring about another Theranos.
Now this I like!
The politicians talking about firearm violence don't actually care about fixing it, they just say things that their base wants to hear. For example, the democrat congressman from my district in MD sent out an email talking about trying to fight the epidemic of gun violence by banning assault rifles and high capacity magazines, even though pistols are used in the vast majority of shootings. A few years ago the MD state democrats also blocked some laws that would have imposed harsher punishment on people who use handguns in crimes because they said it would disproportionately affect minorities. They didn't want to look like they weren't doing anything about gun violence though, so they banned bump stocks, even though they have never been used to commit a crime in MD, and the ATF says the functionality can easily be replicated with a rubber band or belt.
I think it’s pretty simple why you’d want to use Kotlin on the server; full stack Kotlin development: 1 language for both Android and Server(lowers time, costs, and you can share code).

And Kotlin multi-platform is making good progress, so potentially you can also build shared code for iOS and JavaScript. Again, it all comes down to time, cost, simplicity.

Lastly, I have to say, after using futures in Java/Scala, async/await in JS, Kotlin got it right with coroutines, channels and flows. I’m not exactly sure what the roadmap for concurrency looks like in the Java world(even with project loom, etc). While Java is moving fast(finally), I think it’s still weighed down by legacy stuff (nulls, mutable code, lack of expressions and more)

You're talking about right-nimbys that have established wealth. Those are the people that own houses that support prop13.

"We're perfectly accessible as long as you switch web browsers to the one we make" is probably not going to cut it by ADA standards if someone pushes hard enough. Chrome isn't a 1:1 drop-in replacement, and it may not be available on some devices.
Unfortunately, gatekeeping is essential to academia. Ask anyone who wants to publish a finding independently, or read a paper for free without being associated with an institution. Heck, ask the undergrads who paid tens of thousands of dollars for Zoom classes that have MOOC alternatives alternatives.

> Too little gatekeeping means trouble finding the signal through the noise and time wasted on dead ends.

Much time is supposed to be spent on dead ends anyway. That's the way the corpus matures, not to mention an inevitable result of peer review (no need to review anything if all the research product is perfect). Research is a search; imagine running BFS without expecting to encounter dead ends.
You'll notice I have them weighted. I put compound lifts with the max weight (100) so they will be shown first.

When you see the loopier parts of American Protestant theology (Dominionism and Dispensationalism, anyone?) the Catholic bishops may have had a point. As I understand it, in Judaism you are discouraged from studying the Bible without a study partner, because without one you might easily leave the confines of reason and orthodoxy. So it's not just the Catholics who think you shouldn't make stuff up out out thin air in the name of religion.

Or: it's never the answer
Wyoming has one of the highest gun ownership rates 59% and one of the lowest murder rates 1 in 100k in the country. Maryland has 21% gun ownership rates, one of the lowest, and the fourth highest rate of homicides 9 per 100k.
If you think that was the death of it, I hate to break it to you but it was dead long before. This is just a husk
> The Catholic Church secured this monopoly by encoding the bible in Latin, and requiring priests to know Latin before they could participate in religious dissemination, the source of which was the Vatican.

Interestingly, most of the requirements around latin from the Church came about during the counter reformation. Before that, it was the humanists pushing to standardize around latin as a common language.
But be careful about which way the causation goes. More guns don't cause less crime; more crime causes anti-gun measures.

You're out of your mind if you think exrx has form suggestions that are "out of date". I can understand the lack of exercises, even though they continuously update their exercise database.

Exrx is bar none the best one stop ship for fitness, nutrition, and athletic performance out there. The only reason it hasn't exploded in popularity is because the site looks straight out of the 90s
Rock climbing fixed my hand pain so I’m not so sure that rest is always best.
Small arms gunshots are surprisingly survivable if you can get to an ER in time. The victim will probably have permanent nerve and/or organ damage to the point of being crippled, but they're still alive.

Also people miss a lot.
The loss of millions of jobs is likely to have played a role here.

The solution is to organize the working class and bring in representatives that can tackle established wealth and protect the poor. There's less of wealth than the working class but the working class needs to find their voice and be able to show up and vote.

Sadly with so much wealth and power putting their thumb on the scale it's an incredible challenge. We've seen that this past year with the way wealth has been able to influence Prop 22 and the Democratic Primaries.
I think you’re quite misinformed.

This would take many many many billions, not “many millions” as you said.

The daily trading volume for bitcoin is $64 billion.

Buying “many millions” worth of bitcoin would not achieve what you’re proposing.
Maybe I've missed this somewhere, but:

- do you have a finer grained (month by month, for example) break down to support your assertion of the correlation in timing of the NYPD disbanding the "anti-crime" units and the homicide rate?

- if so, is there something indicating there is causation rather than a coincidence?
That would be nice but blood tests aren't free and blood banks would have to pass that cost on to their customers. The main reason they tested for SARS-CoV-2 antibodies was to identify potential convalescent serum donors.

A few years ago, I tweeted at the creator of djangorestframework why it doesn't follow the naming convention of other django plugins (django-{name}). Turns out it was too widely used to rename by the time the dash naming convention became the norm

Naming (public) things in software is hard because renaming them later will break other people's stuff... unless you're in the JS ecosystem where breaking API changes happen on a regular basis and is basically expected at this point sigh
Debian is amazing, and sadly often overlooked.

I was always a little confused by how popular Ubuntu became. Canonical never did much to add value, often replacing more standard tools with strange canonical replacements that didn't survive the test of time.

If you use Ubuntu now, give Debian a try. The stability and community are really second to none. For all my personal use I run Arch, but I would not hesitate to run Debian in production instead of a commercial distribution.
The ancient Dravidian language mentioned in this article is "Tamil" where citrus fruits are associated with the word "narumanam"(fragrance) or "naatram"(bad smell). Narthangai which is a native citrus fruit. But I don't think Orange or Mandarin are local to Southern India.
Thanks OP for sharing my website!

Please be gentle with me. This is a project website that I built out of frustration a few years ago. I know there are things that need improving and a lot of things that could be adjusted. I work full time at Brave Software (brave.com) and simply don't have time to put a ton of effort into MuslceWiki.

I do however have a big backlog of videos to add and I've slowly been working on an app. We have also re-drawn the homepage images and my long term plan is to move away from gifs to webm or MP4.

FWIW, for some reason I was unable to log into my HN account. I made a new one, but the posts seem to be limited. So looks like I'll be replying in the morning.
Which can be done, but it is a long process. Most attempts only get a fraction of the big brand, and the exceptions generally have more to do with the failings of the big brand than the competition. Once people find something they like, as long as that thing doesn't do something stupid they won't be in a hurry to look at the competition in general. If there is any switching cost they are even less interested in trying something else. Which means that the not number one competitors need to be perfect in everything - which is hard when they are not getting as much revenue to begin with, and thus cannot afford to try out any seemingly good ideas that turn out bad only after you try them...

I think that you might be right but it would be more conclusive as evidence than detecting just oxygen. CFCs are not something that occurs spontaneously in nature, so essentially if we did get a positive result it would be meaningful.

To your point getting strictly negative results would not necessarily mean anything one way or the other.
Well, the topic list is continuously expanding. We're up to about 500 topics and sub-topics at the moment.

We're also launching a new question listing marketplace feature where you can push questions up for others to answer. It's a push model instead of a pull model that we have in the initial MVP. It will give people the capability to ask a bunch of questions at once and not have to worry about finding a Sage in each topic area to answer them.

You have 3 questions? Just push them into the market and see if someone is willing to answer them for the price you think they are worth. This would probably fit your scenario better than the current approach of picking a Sage directly and asking the question.
Do you think the genie is still in a bottle?

What is meant by “got around the idea of torture?” That the US no longer tortures, or embraced cognitive dissonance, or brushed it under the rug once blue team held office, or what?

How does that change in June explain rising homicides in the first half of the year? And how does this New York policy explain homicides in 52 other cities? Including, by the way, the likes of Tulsa or Omaha[0] which I suspect aren't sharing too many policy prescriptions with NYC?

> As for the corporate dimension, I was aware that standard FedEx boxes are SSCC coded (serial shipping container code), a code that is held by FedEx and excludes other shippers from registering a box with the same dimensions.

I wonder if this is true, because if so it would be a particularly ridiculous example of "intellectual property".

Anecdotally I have read a few of these art PR-pieces where such details were made up.
It's not realistic to increase supply by 100% within 500m. But sure, say we did.

Assuming more or less linear increases, instead of 1-2% you get 10-20%. Let's also ignore the large temporary decrease in supply and price stickiness of rent.

You "paused" rent increases by 1.5-3.5 years. For something that will likely take more than ten years to accomplish. And then there's not much more that can be done.

If instead you increased supply by 30% in affordable housing (which is much more reasonable, and of course you could do more or add some market rate housing on the top), build very strong public transit systems and allowed construction of high density private housing away from the city centre, and implement rent control, you will do much, much more than stopping 1.5-3 years of rent increases and then not being able to do much. You will actually have a durable solution.
> Many developers and executives do participate in social media including Hacker News. I have seen plenty of tech-related fixes and features that come directly from Hacker News comments.

But the comment wasn't bringing up anything new about GNOME. There is no information someone from GNOME could get from that post, no matter how it was worded. It is not a constructive vs. snark situation.

Q: How many programmers does it take to change a light bulb?

A: Programmers don't change light bulbs; that's a hardware problem.
I thought this might be the case as well but at least for CFCs the lifespan without replenishment from human pollution is only about 140 years. so "a bit" for this particular circumstance is not very long at all in the eyes of the universe
Funny to read this because Fedora is definitely beta, because their distribution doesn't seem very stable. I switched away from Fedora because it seemed to break more than my Arch installation. There are a lot of things they are doing that no other distros are doing right now. Cgroups v2, for instance.

The benefit of Fedora was that they handled a lot of things that were a pain to configure. The biggest culprit being fonts. But now that TrueType patents have expired, and it's included in Arch automatically it's one less reason to use Fedora.
The story of Abraham (where he goes to sacrifice his beloved son, Isaac) emphasizes one man’s individual devotion to God, over and above any societal (or even his own) sense of consequentialist ethics; while I would probably agree that Christianity as a whole (and particularly the words biblically attributed to Jesus) is prosocial, you still have big name Christian philosophers with an individualist bent—heck, you could even argue that modern individualist philosophy starts with Christianity, in the seminal existentialist works of Kierkegaard.
"Orange" is actually pronounced /oringe/, so "syringe" and "door hinge" sound like true rhymes to me?

Proof-of-stake consensus is one answer to this. It’s what the Ethereum network is implementing.
Switzerland has 2 million private guns (excluding the guns for the militia) for a population of ~8.5 million. That’s about an arm rate of ~25% (not to mention that you need a permit for gun ownership & that’s tracked (with the Swiss voting in stricter gun tracking laws recently in 2019).

By comparison, America has an estimated 353 million civilian guns, netting to just over each man, woman, & baby having a gun. Additionally, the laws are extremely lax meaning the government has poor records, enforcement, & a hodge-podge of laws across state lines around gun ownership.

The type of superficial comparison that’s always trotted out in this kind of discussion is always so frustratingly predictable and superficial. Studies have repeatedly shown that in American society, increased gun availability directly tracks with homicides & mass casualty events. You can either regulate guns more akin to the nations you hold up as “exemplars” or make gun ownership less common. All attempts to regulate this situation in any way, shape, or form is regularly fought by Republicans, even for “common sense” legislation that has broad bipartisan appeal across party lines. Heck, often times people thing the government already does background checks for gun ownership without realizing the huge loopholes & intentional castrating of the background check process render the entire process a joke.
There is no evidence that moderate daily sun exposure increases mortality risk. Sunlight exposure also has other health benefits beyond vitamin D, such as stimulating nitric oxide production.
> "Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground." - Genesis 1:28

"Fill the earth", "subdue it", "rule over <every creature here>" = Habitat loss for every other creature = Anthropocene extinction.

But you cannot talk about this, because it's in the Bible, even if we all die from starvation in 100 years.
I believe that we've probably altered the geography of Earth to an extent that it would be trivially easy to determine from great distance that it was once inhabited by intelligent beings. Even if all of our cities are gone, the mineral deposits left behind would be so concentrated. Nevermind the nuclear endeavors.

We were able to detect dinosaurs on our own planet 65 million years after they went extinct, and they didn't even pollute anything.
Would be useful if you went the other way and showed what muscles each exercise affected.
