There is no DK peak except rhe actual skill peak. DK has people’s self-ssessment of relative skill improving with actual skill, but consistently being pushed toward about the 70th percentile from actual relative performance.

Where do you find Alpine-compatible wheels? Many ones uploaded to PyPI aren't, because e.g. both GitHub actions [0] and Azure pipelines [1] don't have Alpine images. Is it reasonable to expect maintainers of small, open-source libraries to write and maintain their own Alpine runners?

I guess if you know your company's workflow depends on Alpine, you can build and cache them yourself. But the wider community doesn't benefit from that.

I think this is why the grand-parent is perhaps making an error in thinking that e.g. space travel or computing are silos unto their own.

Having worked in wet labs and deep learning labs, I think we've a lot to gain from increasing our ability to simulate experiments in silico and automate biological processes.

A lot of the room for improvement has been carved out by improvements in machine learning.
Right now, mass consumer use of technology for communication is predicated by:

1. There being a service provider that is a legal entity.
2. The service provider providing the client software.
3. The service provider gatekeeping to the social network that makes the system useful.
4. Consumers not generally being able or willing to interfere with their client end software to add E2E on top of what the service provider does, even if that is technically feasible.

Under these conditions, mandating backdoors through regulation is perfectly feasible, regardless of mathematics.

Maybe one day we'll see true P2P software that users actually control, with no central entity that the government can coerce, actually being used by the mass market. Until then, it's not defying mathematics at all to mandate backdoors.
"As a European I find it also quite disgusting how race angle is added to every article possible."

Oh well, that's what sells lately, along with doom porn. Eventually everyone will get tired of it or we'll have a civil war or something.

Generally, I'd say that property tax doesn't have to be fair in any way, it's used because it works. People have a large, illiquid asset that's relatively easy to measure. It's a store of wealth that's difficult to hide and can be seized. It could be that our future as a surveillance society will lead to all assets becoming more transparent and property tax will morph into a more general tax on wealth.
Welcome to the "US social credit system", where are all the Tech Giants employees to stand up to this BS ? Or as long as they are well compensated, they don't give a shit about liberty. Of course, they are one of the 0.1%, why would they care about the rest of us!?

The Little Gods by Jamie Wahls explores this very notion, in the context of a parent and her child, and how each respond to expectations of an augmented society.

I can't find the quote, but I recall one ship captain saying in the multiple decades he'd been transiting, he'd never had the Suez Canal pilots leave their crew quarters between start and finish.

Seems most boats that wish to transit have to come prepared with many bribes, and be ready for multiple shakedowns: http://www.sailsafely.com/suez_canal.htm

Clearly this is Egypt's authorities trying to save face and deflect blame for their failure to provide actual, competent piloting.
Somewhere in the interface you’d have a button that when pressed would send a request to the specified origin server with a Host header set to “foobar.com”. If the status code is 200 you’d display a warning saying “perhaps you should re-read our documentation about verifying host headers”.

I can think of a whole bunch of corner cases to this, but that’s the general jist.
This has nothing to do with your vaccines; this is just the first step of turning you into cattle.

There is also a cruise automation video showing a drive through SF where this same type of situation comes up. I believe both systems rely on HD maps and the route is planned based on the vehicles position relative to the very precise maps. If a large enough obstacle is in the way of the planned route it will disengage to the safety driver to plan a new route around the obstacle.
As long as they have fewer drivers per car than Uber does, they should have an operating cost advantage and viable business.
My dad is 82. Up to a few weeks ago, he was going on his 3 mile daily walk, etc. He's getting better at playing bridge. He has a medical issue now but treatment may get him back to "full" activity (up to 4 or so years ago that was a 3 mile run, and that's probably off the table forever).

I don't know that he's enjoyed the past year because of COVID not letting him do very much at all, but if not for that, he'd have been golfing, etc, and scowling at the younger people driving carts instead of walking with their clubs :P. I think he has a decent life.
In some exclusive, expensive cities around Seattle like Medina, Clyde Hill, Hunt's Point you see the opposite. Tax rates are much lower because against the higher property values the cities are able to collect enough to pay for services. There are some weird downsides though. Some of these cities don't have their own libraries and don't pay into the county library system, so their residents can't checkout books for any library. I guess they can afford to just buy any book they need.
I would argue connecting child abusers is a pretty niche market.

I believe defamation, or "communicating false statements about a person that injure their reputation" doesn't apply either.

I believe your criticism is describing that the poster didn't reaffirm/"yes, and" the author, but rather, posited an alternative explanation.

I would call this "tone deaf" if it was a person they had a personal relationship with, "gaslighting" if it occurred repeatedly and they were lying in service of attempting to manipulate the author, and dead serious, not being sarcastic, the worst I could call it in this situation is "disagreeing".[1]

I'm really struggling to come up with something that satisfies the requirement that we describe the person you originally replied to negatively, since neither psychological manipulation of the individual or lying are involved. Being primed to describe this situation as either of those might be throwing me off, I'm curious if you have a lengthier explanation that can give us some color as to what part of the comment you're trying to describe

[1] Personally, I wouldn't call it disagreeing, because I got the sense from the article that the author believes they've done all they can with off-the-shelf tools and a laymen's analysis of planning documents, and they wrote up the post _specifically_ because they needed more help, hopefully from institutions, to find the explanation

So roughly 10 Gbps, not bad. But this isn't about the raw tech.

For people doing medical research, it lets them gather data all day instead of just appointments. That's the big change.

Kind of interesting how similar this is to other serious problems with vinyl chloride in Silicon Valley. Also kind of interesting that so many sofa based contamination engineers here didn't bother to investigate any of that.

I suspect your complaint was targeted at Sisi's management of the country, in which case this is a complete aside.
Someone else mentioned the main complaints people have. My specific problem is that it manages to override and break my custom DNS on every update (Debian). It's also makes booting to the login prompt too slow on some older hardware I have, I'm now running Void there because it boots fast enough.

Nice. An alternative is to use a Compose key. I have Caps Lock mapped to Compose, and for example Compose-g-D yields “Δ” (“greek D”) and Compose-<-= yields “≤”, etc.
I don't think we do, but that's a good idea! I think it could be automatic. We'd have to first detect that the origin server appears to be blocking non-Cloudflare IPs, by seeing if it responds to requests from some random non-CF IP address. Then we'd verify that it refuses to respond to a request for some dummy domain. If it serves the site's normal content when the host name is from the wrong domain, then we could alert the customer that they seem to have an insecure configuration. I will suggest this internally...
How about editing your above comment that was badmouthing react then?
If problem was cost of building and maintaining hardware they would go after that problem by iterating on hardware much faster. That is not the immediate problem. What they need to solve first is to reach to a level of confidence with "happy ride ratio" in which they don't need to hire too many remote assistant drivers to scale up. After all, this technology wants to remove human drivers from the taxi business. What's the point of paying often more expensive remote human drivers plus super expensive gear to do a low margin business like taxi service?
I guarantee that at some point in the future, if we make it far enough, there will be an overwhelming social argument made that everyone should get super integrated brain interface devices implanted, "for the good of everyone." The argument will probably go something like this:

>The brain interface device X smooths out volatile emotions, reducing risk of angry outbursts that result in violence. By not getting a device installed, you are putting everyone at risk to your violent outbursts. Employers and businesses have the right to exclude someone who is at a higher risk of inflicting violence.
Imagine if we could connect your brain directly to a computer. Imagine if you could do things like instantly and precisely recall any Wikipedia article, any news story, any mathematical formula. Imagine if arithmetic goes from a skill you learn to a thing your brain does with 100% accuracy.

Now imagine if your need for speech goes away: why bother using it when you can just “text” from your brain directly to mine and I instantly know what you said without me having to “read” anything. Instant communication. Instant connection to anyone. Instant ads beamed directly into your brain by Google and Facebook.

Now take it a step further: your mind is now a part of a collective globally connected network. The boundary of where “you” exist and where the rest of the world exists is erased. You can feel what other people feel. You can see through the eyes of an Oscar winner, a surgeon, a head of state, a porn star. Police body cams become police mind cams: what was the cop thinking when they took any given action? What we currently have as YouTube celebrities and Instagram influencers become Mindgram stars. You can see and perceive as them.

Now take it a step further. Death isn’t death. Like the paradox of rebuilding a ship one plank at a time, your mind stops existing in your body and occupies a collection of other bodies. Artificial intelligence mixed in with real intelligence mixed in with remnant intelligence. We can’t imagine what this feels like but we are marching towards it getting ever closer every year.

Now take it a step further. People want to get away from this hive mind concept. They disconnect. They play games. They make games where all NPCs are now simulated to the point where they believe they are real. They are here for the benefit of the players but even the players can’t tell the difference when they are in the game.

Now take it a step further. Inside the simulation someone introduces Hard Seltzer. The in game year is 2021 and a player just read that some NPC somewhere had just created a brain/computer interface. He rips off his headset and goes to unplug the computer because fuck this game, all the DLC clearly ruined it.

haha oookie dokie. i do ok, thanks[1]. i feel you're reacting to a gentle yet eccentric message in a pretty uncharitable way, and so this interaction would maybe not be productive for either of us

EDIT: ok, against my better judgement, i'll engage and try to communicate better -- the leap where i may have jumped off your train of thought (and it was a jump, but is always very evident to me) is this: i disagree that it's productive to use a relationship between men in china (compared to women in America?) as some sort of measure with which to determine actions that those in other countries should take. I mean this in regards to repairing relationships with women (in the "network of relationships" sense). It's a trap and a red herring to think that way with those comparisons. To continue with that way of rationalizing: if there's some minimum trough of ethics anywhere, we'd always lose energy to do better elsewhere (outside that minimum) until we somehow drag that far-removed minimum up. And since that minimum is likely far away, non-local and hard to affect, then operating this way is a recipe for the least productive mode of using our limited energies for change. This isn't a "women's rights" point I'm making, but about anyone affecting change on anything.

Comparison of how women are treated in their local communities [elsewhere] with how men are treated in China is completely irrelevant and counterproductive imho. Unless someone doesn't want to do anything about it or have responsibility put on them, and wishes to paint a blanket rationale for that -- in which case it's a helpful framing. (Ps, it's totally ok to not work on these things. Life is busy. But it feels particularly unhelpful to rationalize it with weird intentional logic.)

I'm a very network-centric thinker, so this is how I speak and process (at least on HN, if not in real life)

Again, despite you not receiving my message well before, I state again: I say the above kindly, and not with any sort of "argumentative" or "gotcha" style of engagement. I tried to state these as my beliefs, and not some truth of the universe, though maybe i slipped in my language a few times * shrug * Anyhow, hope you're well

systemd can drastically reduce startup times for some systems (better dependency handling when starting services). Can be valuable for containers when autoscaling.

I think a lot of it had to do more with business requirements than art or science. The business folks stroll in and make these generic one-click deploy type things to get sites up and running quickly, at the expense of being vetted by good artists and scientists.

A good analogy I think is any person using MS publisher to create a book layout. Sure it can be done quickly because the software does the thinking; but should it? Good books have skilled typographers designing the proportions of the pages relative to text block, the fonts, et cetera. The end result is a book that one scarcely notices but feels very pleasant to hold and experience.

We need websites that are subservient to their content; sites we scarcely notice but thoroughly enjoy.

EDIT: one last point: I think part of the problem is also that browsers have an identity issue. E.G. they started as a static publishing platform, but now they are a full blown operating system with web assembly etc. As we know, anything that does too many things is inherently complex, and hence “bloated.”

No, on the contrary, my experience with Haskell is that my code is mostly bug free, but ends up less performant because you can accidentally create huge trunks in the heap and it consumes too much mental stamina.

However, there exists an intermediate plane of abstraction over C and under Haskell that is absolutely horrendous and results in all sorts of weird bugs and unpredictable situations.
Not so fast. Front end development is in fantastic shape for an industry that’s 25 years old.

In a quarter century, we’ve participated in reshaping how billions of people spend their free time and get their work done, seen the rise of social giants, endured the creation of millions of mediocre small business sites, learned to build apps, and taught millions to code in the process.

Now, some of our current development paradigms are either underdeveloped or outright broken. News websites are a cultural disaster. Web app development changes weekly.

This is the natural result of many people trying many things. But the web mostly works most of the time. Eventually we will have fully baked standards with supervisory committees and enforcement and professional certifications and insurance and all the other trappings of a fully grown industry. But right now we get to enjoy the growth of one of the most exciting industries in history, despite it’s problems.

Front end development isn’t broken, it’s teething.

From my reading of the article and related topics the intention is to use it for much more than proof of vaccination. CBDC (central bank digital currencies) seem like a perfect fit. As the article mentions, they are referred to as "wallets". The WEF has a project called ID2020.

Yes. For example, in the bare metal (i.e. non-simulated world) you have various conservation laws, like the conservation of momentum or of energy. In a simulation with finite precision arithmetic, you might observe some round-off errors, which would translate in violations of the conservation law. A smart algorithm might try to keep the errors below a certain tolerance level (let's say 10^(50)). But then in some cases it might turn out to be uncomputable (undecidable). See for example [1] for examples of undecidable ray-tracing problem.

>Modern frontend development provides many opportunities for failure

I think this is the important thing here. Everything feels less stable, and more prone to breaking, on the modern web. You write some simple HTML, style it with CSS, and write vanilla JS for the parts that need it, and everything feels solid. You start a new project with a framework, and it seems like there is this whole area of your project that is essentially a black box, ready to break (or misbehave) any time.
No. It's no "weird form of DRM", it's just the enforcement of a license.
The articles you're linking are proven to be misrepresenting.

They for example look at a really small subset of music "Million song dataset" and only analysed basic metrics that could be automatically measured. To be honest I think the linked Spanish paper and the senationalist "Science proves modern music is bad" should be retracted since the methodology is flawed.

Don't take my word for it, take Tantacrul's - composer, video creator, Design Lead for MuseScore [0].

It's such a complex topic to study "music" - you have to narrow it down - genre, country of origin, purpose - it's a major simplification to say that "all music is worse now", there are a lot of types of music that didn't exist in 1961 (synths, electronic, hip-hop) - how can you compare it?

Also copper is an essential trace element and the acceptable amount of copper in drinking water is quite high, 1.3 ppm. If that were the actual concentration of copper in this apartment's tap water, the pipes will be corroded through in no time. Anyway if a lab test shows more than 1.3 ppm of copper in drinking water then a tenant should, immediately, move to a hotel, stop paying the rent, and file a legal claim for loss of enjoyment plus the cost of temporary accommodation, which would be a slam-dunk of a suit.
