The rise in popularity of PHP and its frameworks in recent years has been significant, and this trend continues to grow. PHP is a great choice if you need to quickly prototype and develop a static or dynamic website. The most popular spheres of activity where PHP programming is used are startups, advertising, and media agencies.
British people would usually distinguish walking and hiking.

Walking covers everything. If the walk is sufficiently long and vigorous, it is also a hike.
Maybe you can help enlighten me on this. I've been struggling to understand the basics thermodynamics of carbon capture for quite some time.

So we have a hydro-carbon, we mix it with oxygen, and the oxygen combines with the hydrogen and the carbon, and releases heat as a byproduct. The heat energy increases the pressure of the newly created CO2. This higher pressure is placed on one side of a turbine or a piston, and we extract useful work by moving it from a high density state to a low density state, causing it to cool in the process.

Now it seems like if you want to re-concentrate that CO2, it should take at least as much work to compress it back to its original size as it released when you burned it in the first place, and probably a lot more, because the CO2 has been diffused into the general atmosphere.

To state it more succinctly, we extract work through a pressure differential, and by reversing that pressure differential, won't that require more work than we got out in the first place by the second law of thermodynamics?

I ignored the part where part of the energy is coming from the hydrogen. Is the hydrogen -> water where most of the energy is coming from, and the carbon part relatively insignificant?
The reversal analysis you've mentioned doesn't take into account (not in the forms I've seen) the presence of high fertility subpopulations that will come to dominate larger low fertility populations eventually and drag everyone's fertility rate back up.
That's pretty bad, but who was the real captain? It's the first time I see total silence about the crew in official sources. At least it is mentioned in some reputable sources (e.g. https://eu.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2021/04/01/suez-can...) that the crew was Indian, but still not a single name.

This is a clear and well-paced introduction to tmux. I've bookmarked it, so I can share it with others who ask why I use tmux.

I like the fact that it is practical-minded, addressing topics likely to be of interest to newcomers. An example is its explanation of rebinding the % and " window-split keys so that the new panes will share the parent directory. Sure, that's a small convenience, but small things add up.
In addition, when other partners / contractors have failed to use metric when expected, it has caused some grave mission failures!

> The spacecraft encountered Mars on a trajectory that brought it too close to the planet, and it was either destroyed in the atmosphere or escaped the planet's vicinity and entered an orbit around the sun.[2] An investigation attributed the failure to a measurement mismatch between two software systems: metric units by NASA and non-metric ("English") units by spacecraft builder Lockheed Martin.

Years ago I read “The Temple In Men” by R.A. Lubicz. A hard to read book, much of which I now only vaguely remember.

One thing that stood out was that ancient Egyptians were fascinated with symbolism, especially in the context of the human body. They built their temples, wrote texts and lived with the idea that there are things in this existence that the human mind will never be able to comprehend.

Perhaps erroneous, I can make an analogy with imaginary numbers in math. Using symbols where there are things in life that cannot be comprehended. The _equation_ of death works, it’s just that there’re parts of it that remain unknowable.

I remember intentionally writing an awful text editor.

A guy had a kid who had severe learning difficulties and motor problems. However he loved typing into the computer but would get frustrated if he hit say alt and would go to the menu, or held a key down too long and get duplicates. Stuff like that. Or would accidentally close it etc.

So i wrote the worlds worst text editor, it would intercept all key presses so that nothing would be handled that would result in the cursor leaving the editor. You could hold down keys as long as you want and would only get one character, same with delete. It also made a type wtiter type noise on every key press. Pretty sure i had timing as well so if you pushed the same key twice quickly you would only get one character output.

It had no menu bar and opened full screen and would start up wherever you left it text wise.

Testing it would drive me mental. It was so frustrating to use! I can't even remember how you exited it as im pretty sure i was intercepting ctrl alt delete. This was windows xp days.

The kid liked it though!
Yes and trees only store CO2 while they are alive. Once they die and rot, it's released back into the environment.
Also monocultures with fast groing trees that ideally can be harvested come with their own problems.
Planting trees is good way to do something now, but it's not going to solve the problem forever.
Probably they want to wait to announce anyone "responsible" as they haven't quite figured out what really happened and who really was responsible. So before letting media guess who it was (and then Twitter or whatever else shittyverse to make everything even worse), they wanna make sure any claims are correct.
“Whenever a doctor cannot do good, he must be kept from doing harm.” - Hippocrates
Yes most people do not fully grasp the scale of the problem. Any way you attack it the scale is absurd making almost all solutions crazy. Getting the co2 back and putting it somewhere, ceasing all fossil fuel use, storing enough energy for wind and solar to work, all of these are trillion dollars scale global moonshot projects.

*but so its all of the energy/money/effort that goes into modern fossil fuel extraction and processing so it isn't fundamentally impossible*

> The US will simply print dollar bills that match exactly what it owes each creditor and give it to them.

And in doing so the US will "simply" vaporize its entire economy.

> IOW, the US doesn’t get hurt at all.

Those of us Americans who are reliant on the dollar holding at least some modicum of value - you know, because that's the currency which we have to use day-to-day - would be hurt pretty substantially. Not all of us have a nice cushion of gold and Bitcoin and real estate to ride out what you're calling a "simple" solution.
Or, is just a "fun" joke that ties into stereotypes. "Haha, told you women couldn't drive, look at this one stopping global trade" and then it spirals out of control.

Not sure we can or should read too much into it.
as i understand it, while ships go through the canal, they are accompanied by a local guide who i believe takes over control of the ship.

so even if this was human error, it's not likely that the actual captain was responsible. but i can also imagine that a guide, while familiar with the local conditions was less familiar with the ship itself, a ship that large, which has a different response time than smaller ships. this alone should increase the risk for innocent mistakes. so i find it hard to believe that there should be anyone to blame.

Do you remember when a subreddit managed to frame someone innocent for the Boston marathon bombing?

This kind of thing happens regardless of whether the media correctly identifies the person(s) responsible, especially if the scapegoat people run with fits into preexisting prejudices (e.g. nobody in the country questioned it when the German police blamed the murders of Turkish minority business owners on "probably the Turkish mafia" until it became clear they were part of a terrorism plot of the _National Socialist Underground_, a white nazi group).

It's also worth questioning what good identifying "the person" responsible in the media would do. If anyone directly involved faces criminal charges, we'll probably find out once they've been found guilty. But anyone involved in software development should know that saying "this person did it" when doing a post mortem on a catastrophic incident like this is not a productive use of anyone's time unless the goal is just to have someone to sacrifice in order to avoid addressing the underlying problems that led to the incident.

Also, while the Canal was blocked for days, the ship did not sustain any critical damage and the cargo seems to have remained safe and secure. The captain of the Costa Concordia on the other hand killed 32 people and sunk his ship. The two incidents are hardly comparable.

You need to find the Nixpkgs GitHub commit with that specific version – in some cases it won't necessarily be in the binary cache so you have to compile it yourself because otherwise they'd have an insane amount more binaries to host. You can use Cachix to get your own binary cache (or alternatively just straight up host your own), and check out Niv if you want to make it easier to manage pinned Nixpkgs.

Marketable names (buzzwords) are very powerful. If we’d replace AI by more realistic terms such as "curve fitting", "hyperparameters tuning" or "decision tree building" the limitations would be very clear from the state, and the hype could be kept in check.

A supervisor of mine tried once to make me switch to more AI-based thing by telling me my research field was niche, and asking if "AI in education" wasn’t something bigger and more interesting (I replied no). In retrospect I should have asked him the question back by rephrasing it like proposed above.
Thank you! Very interesting and frightening.

It'll be interesting how it plays out, but the captain is ultimately responsible and can overrule the 'guide'. So the captain is not off the hook here.

It is a complete mess.

We were supposed to switch time for the last time a week ago. But covid came and the decision in the EU stalled.

In France the application of the population choice stalled as well (we chose to stay on summer time).

There was brexit as well, though the official information is that it is covid's fault that we do not have the decision.

I was amazed by the fact that the EU managed to make such a decision. Now we are back to normal and I will revisit this comment in one and two years to say that nothing changed.

While I am pro EU and I think lors of good can derive from it, it is simply an organization like the UN or the Olympics where politics and personal agendas win.
The ship had a blackout, so not sure what could be done to avoid grounding it. Ultimately the captain is responsible for the technical state of the ship.
In classical estimation tasks (state estimation, control, SLAM, etc..) techniques for dealing with outlier data are well established (RANSAC and it's siblings, M-Estimators, etc..) and known as "robust estimation". Depending on how much processing you throw at it these techniques can successfully deal with 90% corrupt datasets (10% inliers).

For some reason though I've never heard of "robust ML" and I always wonder why. The only thing I hear about is increasing NN sizes and increasing model complexity. Many smart people are working on this so I suppose there's a reason for that but it's just not very obvious to me. Can someone with knowledge of the matter provide some insight?

Ask HN: How to find sparse data domains?
I'm trying to make a complete list of domains with very less data available, either due to sensitivity concerns that can arise due to public release or lack of structured/labeled data and such. Health and finance have some segments where data isn't available for public use and but I've not yet made any comprehensive list with data that's of primary importance in those fields. I'm interested to see if there are any reports or research focusing on this issue of lack or availability of data across all the domains.

I’ll have to defer to your superior knowledge of cars, I guess. I’ve only seen one car in the last few years with a touchscreen. And I’ve been in cars dozens of times over that period. Perhaps they just haven’t been new enough models.

> Monitors of sizes suitable for watching something in a living room from a couch are vastly more expensive than even the highest-end "smart" TVs. And that's assuming you can even buy them; such monitors are intended for things like digital signage, meaning that businesses - not consumers - are the intended customer.

Funny how the size of monitor that is considered “suitable for a living room” has changed over the years.

I think what you’re saying is that we don’t have a free market because the products advertised to consumers are more narrowly tailored than they appear. I disagree. I think that consumers have more information available to them than ever before at any point in history. If they have strong preferences, then there is nothing stopping them from getting exactly what they want. If they just want a nice looking flat–panel TV, and don’t want to spend a lot of time researching TVs, then they don’t have to bother. We should not even want them to have to bother, in that case, because that wouldn’t satisfy their values.

The old adage “The Customer is Always Right” applies here, in its original meaning. Whatever product sells the best is by definition the one that is most fit for the market, and we can't complain that it’s ugly, or not as well–built as it ought to be, or that it’s not fit for our particular purposes. If it sold well, then it wasn’t ugly to the people who purchased it, it was built well enough for the people who purchased it, and it fit their purposes well enough that they spent their hard–earned cash on it. It’s no good looking down our noses at them; they just don’t have the same tastes or preferences at us.

Maybe there’s a hypothetical product that could have sold better than whatever is selling the best right now, but there are often good reasons why those aren’t available yet. iPhones, for example, sell well primarily because they are trendy and hip. There are plenty of Android phones that are just as good, or even better, but they don’t satisfy people’s need to be trendy and hip. Maybe once iPhones lose their cachet, then the Android phones with the best features and technology will sell better. Or maybe by then Symbian will turn the market on its ear and become the big new thing. Or maybe brain implants that give us telepathy will make phones obsolete.

I think the market _is_ free, in spite of trendy things like iPhones and smart TVs. Certainly in some areas, like architecture, the government puts its thumb on the scales pretty heavily and distorts the market. Houses and apartments can’t be too small, because that wouldn’t be good for the people living in them, and other paternalistic rules of that type do distort the market. They do make it less free, by artificially limiting the available choices ahead of time.

On the secular Yiddish side, I don’t know anyone of my generation (holocaust +2) that speaks it even haltingly. Just maybe a few words and phases more than the average goyishe New Yorker.

The prior generation is a mixed bag but I have no relatives that had it as a first language. I have an uncle that’s fluent enough to listen to podcasts and the like, but he’s in his mid 70s.

Fluency was near universal in the generation before that (i.e. people alive during the holocaust), but from what I understand even in Europe before the war it was common by then to also know another language—-German, Russian, Polish, Etc.
Depends on what you mean.

In one sense, it's the most common thing in the world, because Common Lisp source code is made of linked lists, so every Lisp program makes extensive use of them. But that doesn't have any necessary relationship to the efficiency of running programs, because the compiled code doesn't have to traverse linked lists just because that's what the source code is made of.

In another sense, it's still pretty common because linked lists are a standard feature of the language with extremely convenient surface-level support, and because linked lists are sufficiently flexible to represent arbitrary data structures (albeit not necessarily efficiently). Those characteristics make it really convenient to use lists for modeling data while you're figuring out how you want things to work, and I personally do that all the time.

Again, that doesn't have any necessary relationship to efficiency in your completed program. I commonly use lists to knock together speculative data models and figure out access patterns. That doesn't mean I'll stick with them once I figure out the needed access pattern. It depends on the access pattern.

If it happens to be the case that linked lists are close to optimal for the access pattern I discover, then I'll stick with them. Why wouldn't I? If not, I'll use another data structure. Lisp makes it easy to design APIs that are agnostic about the data structures they operate on, which makes it easy to swap out one structure for another once you figure out which is the right one.
Right, and no mention of the poor donkey that was attached to the ship. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills whenever I read the news these days.

Sounds like you have bunch of stuff conflated here. Zero crashes don't mean you get a well-formed UX and that there are no QA surprises.

it would be funny if it wasn't sad that women are so far behind that a woman ship captain is news.
You are correct, this "guide" is called a pilot, and exists for every port and canal.

However, you're wrong about ship size being a problem. A suez canal pilot is guaranteed to be very familiar with container ships of the suezmax size, specially considering that to become a pilot, you have to have been a captain yourself.
It's a hard balance. On one hand it is true that you're not free to profess an opinion if that opinion lets you be fired. On the other hand are your employees / colleagues / fellow citizens supposed to be forced to tolerate anything you say? There's no easy answer.

Personally don't think it's "funny" either way, as joking about stereotypes is generally not very clever humor. But to each his own.
good point. but when it comes to slow reaction times, if the guide is giving the wrong order, by the time the captain can counteract that it may be to late.

but you are right. we'll just have to wait until we know more about what really happened
