Ask HN: Why do search engines ignore the exclusion operator now “-”?
Google, Bing, Duckduckgo, Yahoo, it seems like all of them have decided to stop honoring the "-". Surround things by quotes, add them multiple times, it doesn't seem to matter.

Are there any decent search engines that do what you actually say left instead of extremely poorly trying to guess what you mean?
This is actually extensively use in China, eg. for applying for an ICP licence: upload a copy of your passport (with a lot of extra documents), then you have to record yourself on video, making the moves prompted by an app (close your eyes, open your mouth, tilt your head right/left etc.). I would guess that a lot of this is automated, perhaps with a human check at the end of the process (?). But technical solutions do exist.

"Codeine is metabolized to morphine, so it's not really 'in-between'. Plus it's a bad painkiller due to variability in pharmacokinetics."

Right, and as you say it'd be a good practice to stop using it, especially if it's OTC, which, as mentioned above, it still is in some countries.

It used to be OTC where I am but it's now only available by script. I recall decades ago taking combination codeine/paracetamol (aka acetaminophen) for headaches and the codeine definitely exacerbated them, moreover it was not very effective as a painkiller.

It turned out that whilst paracetamol wasn't very effective by itself the headaches didn't rebound as they did with the codeine mixture. All up, NSAIDs—aspirin, ibuprofen—were better even though they caused minor stomach upset.
This is the vaccine the Australian government is proposing to use on the vast majority of the Australian population.
This doesn’t effect the result. They are comparing people with children. If you didn’t have children or aborted a child it’s the same as not getting married. You simply aren’t part of the study because you are irrelevant for the same reason that a kangaroo is irrelevant to the study.

A disproportionate amount of parents with first born daughters over sons is inconsequential because they are measuring the percentage of divorces for each population, not the total number of divorces for each population.

The logic she uses here is really far fetched and unlikely to be true so you really need statistical causal links in order to say anything substantial. I mean her disclosure also discloses a possible bias. She may not have the ability to admit that she her self was the causal factor in her own parents divorce.
I have too many videos to watch, and this tool sounded like it could help. But it just shows the transcript, so this is not the TLDR. Maybe its meant to be smarter, but it said "No Summary Generated". It didn't help me, as I already skim the transcript on YouTube (its in the meatball menu next to "SAVE")
Wow, thanks so much for this! Have to try this in Termux on my ereader (Onyx Books Nova 3). Love the idea of comfortably reading all these tech videos on eink instead of sitting in front of a normal display even longer.
> Equivocation is "deliberate evasiveness in wording"

Framing anti-disinformation as anti-dissent is about as deliberately evasive as it gets.
As of .NET 5 and C# 9 (also applies partially to F# and VB) you can:

- use structs like in C

- do safe stack allocations for arrays

- use GC free heap allocations and map them to memory slices

- GC free code regions

- static lambdas

- machine numeric types

- static lambdas

- native function pointers

- native sized numeric types

- more control over structs layout and usage

- using available in any type that implements Dispose pattern even if the interface isn't adopted

- you can make use of Roslyn to ensure using is not forgotten

- unsafe and native pointers

- vector types for SIMD, NEON and AVX

- you can generate MSIL on the fly similarly to what C++/CLI compiler would have done. Naturally this trick requires unsafe Assemblies.

HPC# is a C# subset created by Unity with the long term roadmap goal to replace C++ on Unity. Although it looks like a C# subset and plain .NET types, there is a new compiler, Burst, that is aware of those special types.

There is also an ECS framework that goes alongside it, DOTS.

The founding members of the projects are ex Psygnosis employees well known in the C++ community.

Hmmm, some of the text under the photos in the article are extremely misleading:

No mention of epoxy there, though it's literally a key ingredient as mentioned in the full text.
Do you have any actual arguments against Pinker, or really any coherent arguments? See my other comment - while "privilege" is post-modernist BS (really the entire edifice loosely based on foucaultian power/knowledge is), in this particular case I don't even need that - I'm pretty sure I grew up much poorer than you have, in a less stable environment. Yep, still better than any pre-enlightenment and anti-enlightenment system (right or left) ever practiced.

Sure. And I have personal experience with service that tells me they aren’t so evil at all. I give the personal experience more weight than internet theories from people who don’t know of what they speak. Not referring to you necessarily but in general there are a lot of highly opinionated people here who have never bothered to acquaint themselves with the actual facts, instead relying on internet rumors or opinions from random people like Linus on Youtube, an expert on, of all things, PC hardware.

> Tesla sells heated seats etc and when you buy it, what you get is a software update enabling the existing hardware - it's artificial scarcity

That’s just an uninformed opinion. Tesla already explained why they did this, and the reasons were legitimate.
It works in the sense that banning all cars to prevent all traffic accidents does. I appreciate Australians' sacrifices(I wont even bother entertaining unverifiable Chinese statistics) but I do not want the government, Republican or Democrat, to have that power. I was asked to flatten the curve to avoid overwhelming hospitals, not to prevent any and all cases ever. I do my part by wearing a mask and avoiding unnecessary travel. I do not support being arbitrarily put on house arrest because my neighbors got sick.

One trick here is to keep in the source, every sentence on a separate line. That way, it's hard to miss complicated sentences. As a bonus, docs become easier to diff.

For folks doing this everyday, absolutely. For anyone just learning, it's Yet Another Thing to learn. Sure, the complete programmer will be able to think in better abstractions, but most people fail to reach that level. In part because of the complexity of early stage learning.

It's a balance, and I think pandas is on the more complex side of things.
What I don't get: How does the server decide between read and write mode? Does it first do a read mode redirection and then if the result is "all icons requested" it does a write mode? Or is there one indicative icon that will always be delivered?

TL;DR "the truth is that it really does depend"
Then don't take offense by the discussion here, because it's mostly on some "meta" aspects of science communication, and you are probably not responsible for any of the aspects that have been critizised.

Regarding the research itself, I am not an expert, but I am curious to learn how this line of research (automated conjecture generation) intersects with proof automation/proof assistants, and in particular with the work that the Lean community is doing (creating an "executable" collection of mathematical knowledge). Perhaps there are some works you can point to.
Contextual accountability is hard.

Real names / pseudonyms tend to be sweeping across a service, particularly large goliaths like Facebook where you could do things like political activism in a group. You either get more exposure than you're comfortable with, or more privacy than other people are comfortable with.

Real name policies also tend to be cultural where usage of real names tends to encourage more usage of real names, even when it might make sense not to use a real name.
Yes but its still a great idea and worth a try.
When ordering online, you don't actually which carrier will be used: all carriers would then need to have access to the database of random codes -> physical addresses... Not much of an improvement, and lots of room for failed deliveries!
Better use a PO box, or a parcel drop-off point.

Note that the actual reason businesses legally need a name and address is for invoicing, though.
> "Fear of mice Is Fear of spiders"

Another good example of a title that tries to conflate two concepts and ends up being nonsense as a result. Thanks for helping prove my point.

> Surely, whether you agree or disagree with the article's thesis, you'd not argue that the article is implying that mice == spiders?

That is indeed what that title implies: that the root causes are the same and that therefore both fears - and the subjects thereof - are equivalent. And that implication is not just wrong, but - I'd argue - deliberately misleading and in bad faith.

And unsurprisingly, the people who disagree with that assessment are also apparently the ones who appear eager to frame said assessment as somehow "illogical" or "irrational" - you know, as is characteristic of bad-faith argumentation.
"The number is mounting, and it'll vary depending on whom you talk to," said John Stewart, an evolutionary paleoecologist at Bournemouth University in the United Kingdom. Some researchers argue that the species known as Homo erectus is in fact made up of several different species, including Homo georgicus and Homo ergaster.

"It's all about the definition of a species and the degree to which you accept variation within a species," Stewart told Live Science. "It can become a slightly irritating and pedantic discussion, because everyone wants an answer. But the truth is that it really does depend."
While you guys throw tariffs on food here and cut subsidies are any of you aware that for some 10% of American's having food on the table is not a given?

Now I'm not saying that subsidising farmers to produce huge crops of the same 3 crops is the best way of continuing to ensure no one goes hungry, it self evidently doesn't work given the current status quo.

However, to talk about making huge changes to these systems without stopping to consider what impact it will have on that part of society is an incredibly rose tinted view of the world.
Good point. As this is a technical post following up on discussions in the Rust community (on Reddit and IRL in France), I forgot to add that word of background (I've fixed this now, thanks!).
That's one of my pet peeves. I wish I could find good vegetarian restaurants that don't use any of the plant based meat ersatz. There's so much that can be done with vegetarian food, fake meat limits the creativity and is a lazy way to cooking. It leads to a rise of restaurants making mediocre food using plant based fake meat that is a pale comparison to the original.

So far my favorite restaurant experience ever was going to Fu He Hui in Shanghai. It's a michelin star vegetarian restaurant, there was no fake meat, but it was extremely flavorful and I keep wishing I could go back.
> Technically it would be a failed marriage. That doesn't mean the people involved are themselves 'failures'.

That's true but nobody was arguing that. The disagreement wasn't about whether they are failures (a description) but whether they failed (an action). I would say they definitely failed.

ProxyJump indeed seems more useful, but has less support (it's a "newer" SSH feature). Do you know if it needs to be supported by the openssh libs of intermediate hosts, or just the initiating client?
Yes slavery was abolished and blacks became very politically active and successful in period after war.

3 years now of verified accounts being hacked to promote crypto scams and twitter is unable to do much despite considerable media coverage and millions dollars lost. I have seen this one hacker group steal as many as 5 verified accounts/day and 1000+ non verified accounts/day. I don't know how they are doing this but I suspect it is bruteforcing because some of these verified accounts have been inactive for a long time, so it probably not a cookie or other credential issue. Bug reports are useless because I unable to identify a problem, only that there is some sort of vulnerability allow this to happen. afik Facebook does not have this problem.

With regard to the ROR 'bug', Bill Mensch (who did circuit design on the 6502) relates that it wasn't so much a 'bug' as Chuck Peddle left it off the specification so the early 6502s were missing ROR as designed. However they found a way to add it soon after the first version was released.
https://youtu.be/sPaAnbkhgAE?t=1049

With that in mind the early ROR behavior should probably be considered like other illegal opcodes as just a side effect of how the decode worked.
