So you've been burned by some folks at a church and you're struggling with the hypocrisy of the whole thing? A lot of us hear you, we’re sorry that happened to you, that stinks. Something inside you knows people aren't supposed to treat each other like that.

One thing to consider - the whole reason we have for knowing and understanding the person of Jesus Christ is because of those exact same types of people that hurt you. Jesus called out the leaders of the church in His time for doing all the kinds of things that are driving people like you away. In doing so, He made them so mad, they conspired with their sworn enemies to have Him killed.

"Well, anyway, I could never mindlessly worship someone who's so narcissistic he needs my uninterrupted attention."

Is that what God wants from you though? Repeated chants? Money? Have you considered a God that cares less about what you can do for Him and more about just being with you? Is it possible that someone who designed you knows what's best for your relationship - keeping you close to Him?

"Well, Christians believe in N and I'm !N, so no thanks."

Sure, I get it, we want a God that will love us for who we are - just the way we are. But sometimes we're more selective with our love without even asking the question "Yeah, God should love me, but do I love Him whatever way He is?" Are we willing to change any part of ourselves? The problem here is that if there is an intelligent God, He knows that anything we love more than Him becomes our god. Maybe that isn't the kind of relationship he's after. Maybe he wants our whole heart, not just a part.

And therein lies the issue, we aren't terribly loving to that kind of God, any of us. Most of us mess up constantly, and the most frequent way we do so is by hurting someone else He created and we elevate ourselves. That's the whole point. Look around, we're about 5 minutes from torching this whole thing to the ground. We blew it. And you know what? After all that, just like the day he was nailed to the cross - He forgives us, He still wants to give us a chance to make amends and draw near to Him.

Dear Internet stranger, shut down your IDE for 5 minutes and take some time this Easter to figure this out. Is it possible that God is near? That He wrote Himself into our story and happened to have the name Jesus? That He took the hit and died on a cross and He rose again to make your relationship with Him right? If God loves you, he's not going to drag you somewhere you don't want to go - that wouldn’t be love. Maybe forgiveness and a new start is holding out it's hand, but if it was, would you even be willing to consider it?
What are you even saying? My comment was about how even coax internet that many people already have can be extremely fast and wasn't that expensive to lay down in the first place, but isn't used to its full potential because of a lack of competition.
This is akin to Belgian royalty warning against profiteering in the prosthetics industry.
> that's an arbitrary limit to separate proteins from enzymes

Do you mean “to separate polypeptides from proteins”? Enzymatic activity has nothing to do with size. For example, one of the smallest enzymes in humans has 62 amino acid residues. And, under certain conditions, even single amino acids can be catalytic.

But yeah, the polypeptide-protein threshold can get fuzzy, especially with the recent advances in miniprotein characterization.
So disappointed that batman/social reform was never realised by those folk.
I don’t think it was made worse, once the news was out the world didn’t implement any meaningful measures until it was deeply infected
I’m honestly kind of shocked to see the FTC is shutting down anyone. They are a notoriously weak regulator thanks to decades of special interest lobbyists convincing congress consumer protection is bad for business. It makes me wonder what on earth the FTC (and perhaps other federal agencies?) had on Beam that they would agree to this settlement.
You might also consider contacting your state Attorney General.
Thank you for TenFourFox! As recently as last year I was still regression testing my code against TFF on a 12” PowerBook because it’s still my favourite hardware. If anyone ever used Bandcamp on a PPC Mac, they also have you to thank :)
I sort of wonder how hard it would be to use Babel for your JavaScript engine: implement ES3 or ES5 and then just use Babel to transform incoming JS to what you support.

It doesn’t solve the API problem directly, but many APIs have decent polyfills.
> Very pragmatic! Assume there is a God - what kind of things would he consider "useful"?

I generally define usefulness in terms of helping a person make better decisions to help increase the utility (bringing joy, fulfillment, happiness) of sentient creatures.

How does knowing about the existence of a deistic God help a person make better decisions?

This is my issue with deism. It could be true or false and my life wouldn't change one bit.
If lots of people are having expectations that you didn't meant to give them and don't want to meet, that could get inconvenient for everyone including you, regardless of whether you want to blame it on a "them problem". So it might make sense to adjust the marketing to better set expectations. But that's your call, you can also just deal with it knowing that it's their fault for misunderstanding you.
Inconvenient to who? There a many things in Linux that anyone who doesn’t use Linux full time finds majorly inconvenient, a lot of the UX around Linux is only intuitive to the 45 year old graybeard. To us 30 year old win DevOps guys Linux isn’t actually that “convenient” out of the box.
Show HN: Taxopedia: Build taxonomic trees from Wikipedia-scraped data
I urge you all to go back and look at how people discussed things on HN, perhaps 8 years ago and see how civil, well behaved, critical, funny and deeply interesting HN discussions were. Now-a-days, HN is extremely polarized. Go against the grain or mainstream narrative despite of deeply logical, rational post with sources? People will downvote you into submission.
I got told that there was a 60% chance that a reversal would be successful. They didn't say anything about it being less likely with time.

So yes... maybe.
A fully internal "click to deploy" solution would actually be very useful in a lot of situations I've dealt with in the past. Abstract away more of the devops/sysadmin stuff for me, please!
> of course it already knows because it just told you exactly what to draw

It's a computer. It doesn't know that unless it's explicitly told to remember it.

You can very easily test this by just drawing whatever you want as if it did say "draw something". It's very accurate at guessing any of the objects in the dataset, even if it's not the one you're meant to be drawing.
I also just type bc -l in one of my iterm windows. Usually that gets me my answer quicker than launching an app or worse, using a browser.
There's an important distinction - the religious crimes are often done because of the underlying ideology. Stalin did terrible things, but it wasn't in the name of atheism.

Throwing away bad doctrine doesn't instantly make you good, but it helps not to have problematic ideology at the start.

If you're going to build a world, one that updates based on evidence is a good place to start. Seek out evidence that violates your confirmation bias, steelman arguments, change your mind when warranted.
Yeah, I think the `detest` package is using wrong tool for the job.

Good question. It's 100m images, but I haven't tried to find how large all of it is.

We downloaded a subset of 3 million images, which is apparently 379.77 GiB. So a linear extrapolation would be (100/3*379.77) = ~12,659 GiB for the full 100m images.

12TB really isn't too bad. It's massive, yes, but imagenet 21k is 1.2TB.

You could maybe argue that mining Bitcoin using power hungry hardware in a country with a poor track record of green energy (eg USA) isn’t great for the planet.

My statement has nothing to do with electricity isolation.

It has to do with the fact that systems within a nation are integrated at an economic level, especially those that are socialized.

You can dig holes and fill them in your back yard to your heart's content, but you can't do something that impacts watersheds.

You can use electricity, but for certain uses it might be regulated, because in many instances the electricity production and distribution is socialized.

We invest billion in electricity generation to support industry and infrastructure, not to support wasteful speculation.

If someone wants to put up solar panels, or generate their electricity independently with no externalizations i.e. no pollution then go ahead. But otherwise, it's a giant waste.

People are literally paying slightly higher electricity bills to support speculation, not good.
I’ve heard it said that trees are upside down people, with a “head” buried in the earth. It’s a flawed metaphor of course but it gets people thinking.

There’s been some interesting experimental research on how certain plants respond to stimuli and taproot lobotomies. These seem to be evidence for the equivalent of a brain-like computational center in plants. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_cognition is a good jumping-off point.

For a long time, people thought that applying terms like cognition and intelligence to plants and mold was anthropomorphizing, but nowadays it might be seen as animal-centrism, to proclaim that cognition and intelligence are exclusively within the domain of the animal kingdom.

Similar to what you find interesting here, plants seem to have evolved computational structures that are similar to our neural system, in that they have stimuli responses that are biased genetically, but that can also adapt to lived experience via hormonal feedback loops that serve as a kind of memory.
Also:

- Not going to last any significant amount of time, due to the solar sail effect. Solar wind will simply blow them out of the stable L1 orbit in a few decades at most, maybe a few years

- Let people emit more CO2, because "the problem is solved" in the short term, and when it doesn't work and that 2% of sunlight comes back, it'll exacerbate the problem.
My tiny amounts of personal Latin&Greek studies have significantly improved my intuitive understanding of romance languages and anatomy/medicine

The people's deposit money is effectively gone. A few people might be able to find their money in an underlying bank to recover. The hope is the deposit is frozen and in the unwinding it'll be there waiting.

Per the article, FDIC insurance doesn't cover this because it's a 'neo-bank' and the underlying bank didn't fail.

The problem is how the deposits were used. If they're simply stored, it's easy to unwind, but the real problem is if the deposits were lent out or even used to pay other account's interest rates (which would qualify for a pyramid scheme?).

I'm not familiar with the rules regarding a neo bank's access to an underlying deposit in compared to the bank itself, but I wouldn't put it past CEO Du to utilize deposits in the worst way possible.

If Trump had any kind of material evidence, he would have used it. Team Biden would be super strategic about it, I have no idea how they would communicate the intelligence. They would be wary of the populist consequences.

Same here. I switched to Ubiquiti gear a year ago, and by and large it's been very solid, running 2 AC-Pros, 2 AC-HDs and a bunch of switches and a gateway. My controller is a docker image running on a NAS, and having read about the problems with the v6 versions I have stayed on v5, and likely will for a long time. It's a relatively simple home setup so I'm not using any of the fancier configuration settings. For my purposes, it's infinitely better than the hodgepodge of equipment I had before.

I still like the UniFi experience and have not had any problems. I am increasingly concerned about the direction the company is going. I figure I get can a quite a few years of service from my current setup. I don't need to update or change anything for the time being, so there is no urgency. I might still recommend a Ubiquiti setup to others but it would be heavily caveated.
PDFs can be pretty horrible, but you can ingest them through Excel's Power Query these days if they actually have the text embedded.

I got annoyed with importing data for taxes in one instance recently and actually was able to recover all the data from a printable PDF form to then turn into a standard format.

There are so many parts of Excel that seem designed by different groups at different times, with varying levels of stability and sense-making, and so I think it takes a lot of experience just to know what exists and when to access it.

My approach these days is to do anything I can in Power Query and anything I can't in VBA. And those can connect to virtually anything. I avoid other stuff such as Power BI, the data model, DAX, formulas on worksheets, etc. due to painful experience.
Yeah I think I might. I only mention this because I think its related to the article. possibly same type of story different company.

Just a heads-up: there's an old command-line news program named "inn" that might produce name conflicts for the innernet command-line tool.

Fortunately, it sounds like that's just an alias, so people who care about "inn" can just spell out "innernet" or make a different alias themselves.
Ebay does it, it makes sense to be there. I would assume this is a deliberate action to hide it.

Hopefully my tone isn't misinterpreted because I genuinely appreciate the openness in your approach and thoughtfulness throughout this thread. I'm just curious to get your thoughts, admittedly some of these questions are rhetorical.

What experiments have you performed to prove the "null hypothesis"? How do you respond to those who claim they've experimented on their faith and found sufficient evidence to assert their belief?

Isn't "taking the null hypothesis" at some level still making a choice of belief? Doesn't that assumption introduce some amount of skepticism and bias into the measurement? What if the proof requires some amount of willful credulity? What if it's designed to be bestowed 'line upon line' and 'precept upon precept' after 'asking in faith' 'believing that' you will 'receive'.

I've found that starting this particular hypothesis under the premise that there is a God who has crafted a plan that requires the use of your agency to regain His spirit and influence in your life tends to yield better results.

> They’re in control of what they tell me

Have you never interacted in a non-business sense with someone who worked customer support? They DO NOT have control of what they tell you. They will get fired real quick if they don't follow the script. Especially someone working the first line of support in a chat box.

C'mon man.
Nebula looks great for server-to-server connections for things like administrative management/control or the like. The fact that it's fully free means we wouldn't have to deal with licensing, unfortunately I can find it hard to get approval for licensing and purchasing.

I like ZeroTier because: It was dead simple to set up, the web management UI is good, the "public" networks seemed like they might be nice for CI/CD servers to connect into some infrastructure to deploy (though that didn't work out because CI/CD docker didn't have flags allowing ZeroTier to work, but I did just get SSH over userspace ZeroTier working). It's super easy to set up in all the environments I've looked at.

In inheritance OOP languages, interfaces are an implementation detail of the class. In Golang, they are proxies. You have to think about them differently.

Also I agree with the other commenter that all this verbosity isn't very idiomatic. If you can't just write if a != expected { t.Failf(...) } for each thing, then use testify, because they definitely have been thinking about this long enough to get it right:

Not really. Taiwan officially calls itself "Republic of China" and awkwardly claims that they actually own China mainland. (Since the time of Chiang Kai Shek.)

This position is (also awkwardly) preferable to People's Republic of China, since they see it as better negotiating position for reunification, rather than Taiwan independence.

PDS: Weird and interesting! (In a good way!)

I've never seen a programming language with single-unicode-glyph keywords before! (But then again, I don't get around that much, so maybe they've been around for awhile...)

You know (speculating here)... I wonder if there will be future programming languages where common language constructs such as for..next loops -- will be represented by single Unicode glyphs...

In Math, we have the Sigma symbol for repeated addition, and the Pi symbol for repeated multiplication ("Sigma notation", "Pi notation"), which are single characters...

So, maybe Mathematica (and Math-based programming languages) already did something like that in the late 1980's...

I wonder what else could be represented by Unicode glyphs in programming languages...
You should have been checking if the `c` pointer receiver in compress() was nil before dereferencing it though. That way even if you wrongly assumed that checking for interface nil was equivalent to checking for the underlying type's nil, your program wouldn't have crashed.

Wrong. A strike, by definition, as actually defined in federal law, can indeed be illegal.

Wrong. It's an established form of protest which may or may not result in criminal fillings because it is illegal federally for federal employees.

>Despite the results of the strike, the protest itself is not illegal, nor is walking out of a job.

Despite the results of the strike, the protest itself is illegal, as is walking out of federal jobs (in a strike).

Late reply, but I'm guessing you were adjacent to some Posh Isolation/Janushoved stuff then? That whole scene was easily my favorite sonic development of the 2010s. It seems to have stagnated in its own right now, but it really was a breath of fresh air compared to much of the butt noise of the 00s.
