I had sort of the opposite experience. The book was really fun, but it felt a lot more like I learned how to play some abstracted low-level game. It just didn't do much to actually inform me about how a modern CPU actually works.
Yes, we definitely improved on that front. Spyder should be more responsive now.

You should give it a try with our new installers for Windows and macOS, which save you the trouble of installing Anaconda: https://github.com/spyder-ide/spyder/releases/tag/v4.2.1
Yes that seems way more plausible. Just the standard "hedge funds dunking on another hedge fund" like in Billions.

Watching the Roaring Kitty analysis it was way more just GME is a value at $4 and could go to $20 based on fundamentals than let's do a short squeeze.
Revisiting this, the difference in definition between vaccine and inoculation probably isn't so big. I think colloquially it is a good difference here.
I agree that this can be worded better and we will certainly do so. Thank you for your feedback. It's fairly common to see this pattern of HMAC off by default (ex: Intercom) to help people test their embed. Atleast at the moment we are in touch with everyone going live and make sure this is communicated to them (doing things that don't scale).
Most of research shows that doing that is hard and very few people are able to keep it up so yeah, congrats for those able to do it, but it would be better not to place such burdens on people from the get go if possible.

You have to pay for this cost forever. I've been going through it for 10 years now and I'd rather just not have to care about this or invest on it as much :)
Any idea what are the specs?
That is so cool! I've always had a fascination with riding the rails. That sounds like a truly unique experience.

Nowadays CN has pickup trucks with train wheels that raise/lower. An old roommate drove one for work, it sounded quite interesting.

Pretty much. This is how my React ProseMirror integration works: https://github.com/dminkovsky/use-prosemirror/blob/main/src/.... Though there are some complexities. I believe CodeMirror would be the same.

> Leaving Pakistan means shutting down their Pakistani App Store, so the app still won't be available.

If Apple chose not to exercise totalitarian control over iOS users by making their App Store essential to installing software on iOS devices, then Apple would not have to collaborate with the totalitarian Pakistani government. Pakistani religious and ethnic minorities could distribute software through whatever covert channels they've already established to resist their oppressive government.
I don't know how not to make this a personal judgment, but I hate this shit with a passion.

Edit: For the sake of clarity, what I hate is the amount in which influencers and social media impact the market.

By stating your hypothetical "Should the assaulted be happy with the fact that the inmate will get a job?" you made a condition only sometimes encountered - violent crime - a reason to treat all criminals worse.

I assumed that you did not actually believe that all criminals in America had assaulted someone, but if you did not believe it then arguing for the punishment of people who did not commit violent acts (by making it more difficult for them to get jobs when released) seems far worse than if you just did believe a ridiculous thing.

And really by using in your argument an emotional hypothetical about the assaulted to argue for denying something to people who have not committed assault it becomes difficult to know exactly how to take it.

The argument is hard to take seriously if you don't really believe it is true for all criminals, and it is difficult to believe you think it is true for all criminals.
I'm pretty sure "anti-wall street" is just the financial version of "doctors hate him", i.e. clickbait. Last week it was buying into the GME bubble that was marketed as "anti-wall street" and look how that turned out.
(Spyder maintainer here) Kite is completely optional for Spyder. If you don't like it, you can uninstall it and Spyder will continue working without any issues.
I'm the opposite - I was thin as a kid, and gained weight only in my 30's, for no reason that I could figure out.

My diet did not change, I rarely eat junk food, no sweetened drinks except tea, and I prefer vegetables over other food, and all my meals are cooked at home (no restaurant food, no pre-made food - not even cereal).

And yet, I keep gaining weight. I attribute it to eating too much of the healthy food I do eat, but I can't help it, I'm too hungry otherwise - but of course that doesn't really answer the question of why.

Oh, and if I exercise my hunger skyrockets and I gain even more.
That would work too. Thank you
So Republicans can change the agreed upon rules (norms), lie about it, and then change the rules again, to get what they want while they're in power, but when the Democrats are in power, they have to play by the Republican's rules?

In 1988, AN ELECTION YEAR, the Dems controlled the senate and still confirmed Kennedy who was put forward by Reagan of course, 97-0. But when Mitch McConnell spits in the face of Obama and Merrick Garland, Dems are supposed to just sit and take it?

Once again, elections have consequences, and we'll see what they are very soon.

By the way this is academic as Manchin has said he won't do it.

Yes, I look forward to having random people skirt the social distancing rules because they sniffed their own homemade vaccine over the weekend.
2,000,000+ people are dead because we didn't take this path.

The risk to testers under 40 would have been negligible. I'm not being flippant about other peoples' lives -- I would have signed up myself if the compensation was high enough.
Very true. I wasted nearly two years of my life at a toxic agency that prided itself on its culture and how the company was a family.

I'd dread Sunday evening. The morning drive to the office was always filled with a sense of impending doom. The finger pointing during "stand up". The end of the world when a TPS report didn't have a cover sheet, and mandatory meeting to come up with yet another new process to prevent future disasters.

Eventually I just said fuck this and gave my two weeks notice.

I had a mortgage, was the sole earner in my family, and had nothing else lined up. I was scared, but so relieved to never have to go back there.

One week later I was offered a job with a much better company and environment, for significantly higher salary. My only regret is not leaving sooner.
Yes, it was. And that is a reason to downvote.

People aren't on Hacker News for the jokes, and a significant fraction don't like seeing threads hijacked by silliness. We've all seen Reddit, and are choosing not to be there for a reason.

That's not to say that you can't get away with jokes here. But the bar for them to work is very high.
Thanks for the advice. It's number 1 on my list now.
The end of that sentence says, "a new study in mice suggests." It later suggested that the effect may last up to 6 years post-puberty, which is a more than a few decades shy of claiming that it remains true for all humans for their entire life. And even later, it said that exercise may compensate for it by building up other similar bacteria.
that makes sense - I suspect it’s this in addition to local prosecutors failing to prosecute.

There was an article last year about how the thieves know to stay in san francisco county and not cross into san mateo county, because the chances of being arrested and prosecuted is much higher in san mateo county
Do people really travel any kind of distance to commit crimes? I thought that most crimes were committed in one's own neighborhood, then nearby ones.

“Secrets of the ATS” – A Chat with Lever’s CEO Nate Smith
No, I was objecting to you saying the job is "easy", which is absolutely wrong and insulting. Also, I simply disagree that these jobs are "low value", ie "I don't want a world without servers". That's was part of an explanation for why I value them, so it's not really a strawman. It wasn't really meant as a core point, or characterization of the other side.

> Most people can not be developers

I don't agree with you there. I'm not 100% sure the numbers, but there's really nothing special about being good at programming. These arrogant attitudes give our profession a terrible reputation, then I have to go back to the real world, and deal with people that assume I'm like you before I even say a word.
Why am I supposed to take this seriously? LessWrong is not exactly known for being a sane place (as much as many of them would love to believe they are smart) and this guy states it as a "fun project" which make it sound extremely suspect.
A recent attempt at a dengue vaccine faced a similar problem. The most dangerous kind of dengue fever happens when you are infected a second time, by a different variant than you were infected the first time. It turns out that the vaccine ended up having a similar effect as catching dengue for the first time. People who never had dengue and got vaccinated had a lower chance of catching the disease in the future. But if they did catch it there was a higher risk of it being the more dangerous version. The end result is that the vaccine is now only recommended for people who already had dengue before.

I don’t either, but the option is there if it’s ever needed. I guess I wasn’t as clear with my point for Firefox (which was a very different point for Microsoft).

If this isn't what people want then perhaps citizens in SF could reconsider who they vote for to represent them in government.
so they can continue to hide from public that most of their revenue is from secondary use they monetize from their database: research & law enforcement (or anyone that wants to buy their anonymized database, that still seem to contain zipcode)
Would it be immoral if they were offered a million dollars?Honest question, because it feels like the philosophy might not match up with common experience. It feels like an interesting question. People voluntarily risk worse for less pay in other fields, e.g. the military.

And if it wasn't immoral, what is the dollar limit?
I kinda miss this "storage media enthusiasm" of the late 1990s and early 2000s. Sure I like my usbkeys and cloud storage, but its just not the same as "data cubes", scotch tape or even just actual products in these weird "in-between" times back then like jaz&clik drives, minidiscs, etc.

Overhauling Twitter
Not sure where the "implied shame" comes from, I certainly never put any shame if someone chooses not to donate to something where it's not required. I just saw the statement about the author wanting donations and thought I ask because I was curious. Both yes and no would have been fine in my book since as you say, no one owes CodeMirror nor the people behind it, anything.
> The risk to testers under 40 would have been negligible.

Luke Letlow (age 41) says otherwise, since he's dead. Okay, he's above 40, but he's high-profile and easy for me to remember. Plenty of sub 40 year olds have died.

Even among the survivors... plenty of young and healthy 20-30 year olds are having month-long recoveries, unable to breath at their old capacity.

Purposefully damaging the control group (who by definition, must NOT receive the vaccine) is immoral. Whether people in the control group believe in the potential harms of the disease or not.
Is the plan to make money to charge for integrations? Or is the plan to collect data on people's most used snippets and sell that data?
Nah it depends how you loose weight. If you properly do some kind of body re-composition diet where you gain muscle and loose fat mass and also change your BMR a bit, you can go in and out of this "metabolic buffer" state. My metabolic buffer lasts for about a month and a half and then I notice muscle mass going down and fat going up and my BMR changes.

Speaking of, imagine someone sending a satellite full of "ICBM" to space, covertly enough. How do you identify what it is? It's even harder than finding submarines if there's enough "chaff" launches. Dead Hand is a toy in comparison. You have no chance to intercept as the delay is too short and speeds are orbital. Better hope your spies know which satellites are weapon platforms.

Cruise missiles are already extremely hard to defend against, in as much as doing so requires the defender to identify all nearby ships, submarines, airplanes and other covert launch points. (ECM is not good enough, SAM also has no chance. Cannons and interceptors have low chance of spotting these as well.) Hypersonic version does not bring all that much to the table there, if anything.

> It doesn't make sense to say that I might have missed something then accuse me of being disingenuous

Not knowing is one thing. Not knowing, assuming the worse, and then taking your assumption for granted, is disingenuous. There would have been nothing wrong with asking instead of asserting.

> Your second paragraph was hard to follow.

Fair enough. Wording could be better.

> I understand there is a wide variety of applications for Apple's 'watch' and that its 'cutting edge technology'

The point of the Apple Watch is not that it's cutting edge, it's that it reduces friction in this sort of studies. It's also on and worn 24/7 so data is acquired around the clock, which is never the case in a large clinical study as measuring equipment tend to be expensive, bulky and inconvenient. As they (almost) say, the best sensor is the one you have with you.

> My issue has to do with the funny connection between a product that Apple markets to consumers and faux medical research articles created for the sole purpose of a citation in a marketing article.

See, that's disingenuous. You admitted that you were not really aware of it, and now you know that the studies are fake and just for press releases.

>ResearchKit (an app in the apple store)

ResearchKit is not an app on the App Store. It's one of the frameworks that's used in these studies.

>It's easy to enrol

Enroling is a notorious barrier to entry, it is objectively easier to tap a button on a phone app to enrol compared to walking to a clinic somewhere in the US and sign paperwork.

>publicised every year

Yearly publicity was addressing your state of ignorance. That's not marketing, it means that information is out there should you need it.

>partnerships with various hospitals

Fair enough, that's communication. Still does not support your assumptions, though.

> Enrollment has 2 Ls by the way.

> Nukes don't stop a rebellion. They do make other nations think twice about launching nukes at us, though.

MAD works until it doesn't. Even small escalations can rapidly ramp up into a worst case scenario. There is another path though: Disarmament though international treaties with comprehensive monitoring. Unfortunately, that was not the path taken as nation states that managed to accrue small advantages decided to press them instead. Today, the US is modernizing the nuclear arsenal to the tune of over a trillion dollars and is investing in tactical nuclear weapons.

> Stretch Armstrong would be impressed, this one is not easy to frame through the class war lens.

The cold war was about (some form of) capitalism vs (some form of) communism, which was in fact class war... However, in this case you can also see it as the ruling class is defending itself against control by another nation's ruling class. The people at the bottom are forced to deal with whatever the ruling class decides with little input.
OK.

Another issue is "AI based underwriting" which is not allowed in California and other states unless the Department of Insurance of that state has a chance to review your algorithms. (And even then, I wouldn't bet on it.)

California in particular requires full upfront public disclosure of all underwriting rules.[0] (What you can do, is gather data for risk optimization, and use that to inform your underwriting rules when they get periodically updated and filed, but insurance companies more or less do that now.)

But the point is, even if there's a 1% chance that this plausibly works, the government should be throwing money at bio-hackers like this. Or at the very least exempting them from the regulations that stand in their way. Very likely these moonshots won't work. But they're still dirt cheap relative to the economic impact of Covid. If there's a way to disrupt the current slow approach to vaccine production, we should be exploring it.

Find a few thousand smart, maybe insane, biohackers. Give them each a $100k grant. Give them total immunity from FDA regulation. Free them from all the bureaucratic and ethical shackles that slow down establishment science. At a cost of $300 million, even a 1% chance that one of them figures out a way to double the rate of vaccination, constitutes a 1000%+ return on investment.
Do you think Ahmadiyya Muslims in Pakistan want Apple and the Pakistani government to forbid them from installing the software they like? Do you think they feel safe because of this? It is common for totalitarian systems to cite user/citizen safety to justify themselves. I encourage you to see past this bullshit.
I don't use the word "bougie" but I have been in the one in Palo Alto a few times (the first time by choice) and honestly have never seen the point. Nothing I've seen there as looked remotely enticing.
I must say as a parent it's pretty frustrating that we battle day in day out to try and maintain something resembling a good diet for our kids, but at least superficially their actual health honestly appears indistinguishable from kids in families where they really don't bother at all.

Indeed, so let's assume because CodeMirror doesn't have a license like that, the authors don't "want their cake and eat it too", as the license is simply open source. Don't know where you get the whole "guilt tripping" stuff from, having a message that says "if you enjoy this, please donate" is guilt tripping...

I find completing challenges helpful, but I don’t find grinding them all that productive. Personally, my biggest steps forward came from working hard on a small number of problems.

Doing code challenges is kind of like taking every class at your college: I understand the urge to crank through them but past a certain point, like when the motivation becomes having a badge to show off, there are simply better uses of your time, and in general a good self directed project should be considered ‘the real deal’ - code challenges a substitute.

That being said, some of my ‘level ups’ were on the back of completing code challenges, and for beginners very simple challenges can be great learning tools. But when they start feeling tedious recognize that you can put them down for more fulfilling and productive work.
