But... so are the complicated sites, once you've reduced it to its essence. Everything else are (excessive, complicated, arguably unnecessary) abstractions on top of that
Suggestion: allow entering the registered email ID in the place of username, when logging in. I was repeatedly trying to login and even reset the password, assuming the Username field was "Username or Email ID" like it is in many places now. This is certainly a bit of PEBKAC, but it would be a nice usability improvement to allow what's now become a common pattern and make either username or email ID work in that part of the login form.
If you check the Table 3, you can see the comparison with some of the top unsupervised video segmentation model, trained with supervised learning, eg. COSNet, MATNet. They perform reasonably well on MoCA, but they were all trained with massive manual segmentation annotations, which is not typically not scalable.

The proposed self-supervised approach is comparable to those top methods, even without using RGB, and any manual annotations.
Perhaps something that indicates no results, rather than (erroneously) one result?
this is actually impossible because all cryptocurrencies necessarily start out maximally centralized, and "decentralize" gradually through the distribution model.

the problem is that this creates at best a concentric circular pattern of ownership (and thus leverage over liquidity), even if everyone involved is completely honest and ownership is 100% transparent. in reality it's far worse than that because pseudo anonymous address ownership means claims of "fair distribution" cannot be trusted let alone proven.

decentralization is a mirage.
Reading through this book a bit I found a mention of penrose block replicators, and through that found this video from the early 60s. Not really a replicator in an real sense, but still a neat demonstration: https://youtu.be/hQ6T_TY3JA4
I agree with all of this and I appreciate it, but ultimately there will always be the people who are willing to use their ambition to trample on the rights of others, this is why we have a government.

Ultimately while it is up to us developers, it's also up to us to lobby our representation for actual protection. Surely the last four decades of I tense laissez faire business practice in the world's largest economy has helped leaf directly to our situation.

I would maybe advise removing some of the building and underlines for something more elegant and perhaps provide some links to help people find their representatives. We are underrepresented, but while that is another discussion it highlights how important your message is to us devs. We have power.
Some interesting things for context:

- Russian embassy in Prague is one of the biggest embassies in CZ

- our president is strongly leaning to Russia, lobbying for Sputnik V vaccine even though it's not approved, and verbally dismisses sanctions against Russia

- all of this is happening during preparations of Dukovany nuclear power plant expansion, where Russian Rosatom still wasn't dismissed despite clear security risks
Wow, thanks for sharing. Very cool story :)

You put together a lot of fun hours in my childhood
I have never understood this either! It is trivial to set up buffer upscaling and simply render to that, but people don't.
Yes, it a single place I’ve worked has asked leetcode questions. Almost every job I’ve gotten has had a pretty simple interview process. Some discussion is out my past work, etc. followed by a series of trivia questions, nothing tricky or anything, mostly really basic questions regarding the languages I’d be working with, OOP concepts, etc.

The caveat? Well for one my first few jobs have been extremely low paying and that’s not hyperbole at all. Even now I don’t make very good money, relatively speaking, for the field. I’ve worked at very small companies, government agencies and large corporations, exclusively non tech. The work is boring and droll, a lot of sitting around and waiting for bureaucratic processes. But never any leetcode questions.

I’m sure there are other people with better experiences who have not gone through the leetcode process as well.
yah, figured as much but didn't see anyone else mention the obvious.

as mentioned in your sibling comment, i also wish apple had given us radio functionality in their idevices. as i understand it, it was mostly a matter of providing an app and not disabling the hardware, at least in some if not all iterations of the iphone.
Wait... What do you mean by PyPi runtime downloads???
Great job. Very well presented.

> libertarians believe that corporations should have the right to do basically whatever they want that doesn't physically infringe on another's own freedoms to do whatever they want

No, libertarians believe that actual people should have that right (subject to the non-aggression principle, which is actually more than just "doesn't physically infringe on another's freedoms"). Corporations are not actual people.

To a libertarian, corporations are tools that individual people can use if they want to work together to accomplish some common purpose. But most "corporations" in today's society are no such thing; certainly Facebook is not. Most stockholders in corporations today have no actual interest in what the corporation does or what common purpose it is serving; they view their stock as just a money-making asset. (Indeed, most "stockholders" in individual corporations today are mutual funds, not individual investors.) None of this is libertarian; it is due to government manipulation of the financial system and government regulation of corporations and investments. In a truly libertarian world something like Facebook could not even exist.
Not exactly. It's been said enough times, but compile time type checking has a big asterisk besides it with Typescript.
I'm wondering what he could have learned in the same time it took him to write this article. I get it, it's harder to navigate the vast jungle of tools and technologies. I also remember 2001 when my only reference to HTML was the help files of Home Site 4.0.

We have it much easier today.
The incredible success of a small group of Hungarians from one region and time has sometimes been attributed to the unique social situation in Hungary then. Part of which was linguistic. In the case of the Hungarian Jews, they were usually Hungarian speaking at home, and often from families of German or Yiddish-speaking background further back. Usually educated in German. Some were educated in Hebrew at religious school. In the case of Hebrew, Hungarian and German, that's three radically different languages, about as unalike as three languages can be. Maybe that has an effect on the mind?

Though as I recall, von Neumann's family was non-observing. So he was fluent in Ancient Greek by the age of 5, instead. So I'm not that strongly wedded to the hypothesis. Maybe they really were from Mars, as Leo Szilard once quipped.
Re: abstractions, I think what seperates Window/MacOS abstractions from Linux/UNIX abstractions is obfuscation. The aggressively closed-source nature means that *nix abstractions, to a reasonable degree, anyway, reflect the underlying structure in a way that closed source abstractions can't. Of course the file abstraction is an abstraction is an abstraction, but it's also implemented transparently as a concept in the kernel --- Whereas Windows manipulates their interface so that the interface _is_ the implementation, as far as the user can see and as far the user should care. At least, this is my experience, and it fits well with what I'd expect from the operating systems' respective development models.
>Since there is no way to 100% fingerprint a device, therefore there is no way to uniquely identify anyone with 100% confidence using pure fingerprinting techniques.

Pedantic point, so forgive me, but 100% uniquely identifying a device does not imply 100% uniquely identifying the user of the device. We call them User-Agents for a reason. Anyone could be using it.

It's critical people not fall into the habit of conflating users and user-agents. Two completely different things, and increasingly, law enforcement has gotten more and more gung-ho about surreptitiously forgetting the difference.

Ad networks and device/User-Agent based surveillance only makes it worse.

There are several initiatives to implement UUID's for devices. There is the Android Advertising ID, systemD's machine-id file, Intel burns in a unique identifier into every CPU.

IPv6 (without address randomization) would also work as a poor man's UUID.

It's frighteningly easy, and you'll be surprised how unintentionally one can be implementing something seemingly innocent and end up furthering the purposes of those seeking to surveil.
You can still use your old copy of Dreamweaver if you really want to. I think Adobe still sells new versions too. I wouldn't advise using website builders in general (Dreamweaver was always kind of sketch), and I certainly wouldn't advise using Adobe software in general (they're an awful company with overpriced products), but I can't imagine modern Dreamweaver has gotten particularly worse than it was before.

You can't use Flash, that's fair. But my goodness, you wouldn't want to. The small amount of incidental complexity we've gained from forcing pizza shops to stop laying out their interface in Flash is worth it. And outside of the plugins that were absolutely the correct decision to remove, everything else you want to use is still available.

What we're getting at is that with a few exceptions (HTTPS, Java plugins, Flash), virtually all of the old APIs that you used to use on the web are still supported and are the exact same to use, if not better. This is not the case everywhere with every language and platform. But the web has done a reasonably good job at being backwards compatible.

You're worried about deploy processes, and you want to deploy a free site on Netlify? You don't need to learn Git, you can hand-code your site in static HTML or generate it using any program you want and just upload it as a zipped folder. Your Dreamweaver builds will still run today. Font faces? Still work, you don't need to worry about FOUT. You miss table layouts? Hackernews is using that crud right now. The complexity around build tools, processes, and frameworks is all optional. The browser doesn't care.

If you're missing the old experience of building websites, then just do that. I maintain https://anewdigitalmanifesto.com. It is hand-coded HTML that I wrote in a text editor. It has no Javascript, no build process, no minification, nothing. And it works fine; no one has ever complained about it to me. If you're adding complexity to your engineering process and it's making your job harder instead of easier, then take a step back and ask yourself why you're adding that complexity in the first place. Is it solving a problem? Or do you just feel like you need to do things "properly" based on the current development style? Because again, the browser doesn't care.

I know what I am meant to think and feel in response to this article, but I don't. Keeping in mind that this was written by the one of the three people in the story, who took it upon themselves to post about the experience online later, I can only assume there is some level of bias and quite possibly exaggeration. Put simply, these are the facts of the interaction: 1. An inexperienced individual enters a highly specialized area. 2. Someone who we can assume is highly experienced takes time out of their day to explain to them their (probably popular) conception of how the specialized area functions. 3. This experienced individual gives them something of value relating to the highly specialized area (I do not know what the cash value of this thing is, but it is nonzero), likely in hopes of future business. 4. The inexperienced individual is upset and posts about the interaction online, tagging it with "jerk".

I understand the point of the article, but the characterization of the shopkeeper seems unfair. If you're unwilling to learn from someone because they don't understand what exactly you're trying to do, or because they speak condescendingly, or because they smell bad, or because you disagree with their opinion on X, Y, or Z, you will not learn very much.
What you wrote is highly misleading - the Location API does not need Play Services on Android to work.

You explicitly decided to choose the Google cloud driven API that's hosted in Play Services and thus requires Play Services (and not Play Store!) updates. You didn't have to.
From what I read about Nazi Germany, going into all-out war with other powers was very unpopular in 1939. Ordinary Germans supported Anschluss of Austria or Sudetenland, but did not want to risk another big war for Poland of all things.

But in a totalitarian regime, consent of the governed did not matter much. Expressions of pacifism would land you in a concentration camp really quick.

Democracies care a little more about what the average Joe thinks, even though they are far from perfect in this regard and consent can be sorta-kinda manufactured.
Hi, I'm really curious, what do you write exactly for a living? Do you write fiction books, non-fiction books, blog posts, technical documentation?

You'll likely love my eventual plans to take a multi-angle stand against such industrial complexes; I describe part of the ideas in rough form in my comment here - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26822283

Email me matt@engn.com if interested in discussing larger plans. Forgive if I take awhile to respond, I have to deal with severe chronic pain, so that slows me down quite a lot - a few solutions on the horizon though, so hopefully at some point I won't have that burden slowing me down.

Re: from another comment if yours, " guess I'm saying I'm increasingly sure that this is the hill I want to die on. I want to do more than just donate. I want to get something done. I am ready to let this issue live constantly in my head as more than something that makes me mad. I want to fix it. This needs to change. The narrative needs to change." -

Maybe you can be helpful just in giving me a sounding board to give feedback as to what's not clear enough, etc. There's a whole ecosystem I want to develop, its different layers, along with educating about government policy to propose.
I think that static ads served from the first-party CDN are security-wise no worse that the content itself.

Blocking scripts and requests by third-party ad networks makes complete sense from security perspective, though.

Affiliate links going directly to relevant item pages in a store are fine by me, too. They have to be relevant for anyone to click on them, they don't play video or make sound, etc. They do give some tracking opportunity, but without third-party cookies and third-party requests, it's hard to achieve anything resembling the privacy-invading precise tracking which current ad networks routinely do.

In any case, I much more prefer the absence of AWS and an honest donation button.
Indeed, the only difference is they work on RGB space, and the dataset is a bit toy-ish (no offence), as the networks simply need to separate the objects either by color, or a regular texture pattern.

What proposed in this motion grouping paper, is more like on the idea level, which gives an observation that, although objects in natural videos or images are of very complicated texture, and there is no reason a network can group these pixels together if no supervision is provided.

However, in motion space, pixels moving together form an homogeneous field, and luckily, from psychology, we know that any parts of the objects tend to move together.
I don't think you're smart enough to make any inference about when I started.

But if you insist on this crusty bonafides peen measuring contest I got started serving php via cgi on apache deployed with scp.
That's an interesting idea, I've always been more of a night owl so I never really tried learning at the start of my day. Do you do this before the start of your morning routine, or do you give the coffee time to kick in?
Oh, you would want to use it. The games and similar mini software just don't have anything comparable to it.

In his book Mutual Aid a Factor in Evolution, the 19th century naturalist Peter Kropotkin remarks on the flocks of mixed species of birds he encountered in Siberia. He documented clear cases of inter-species coöperation, like warning of and mobbing predators.

It was one of the experiences that led him to his hypothesis that coöperation was a survival trait that would be preserved and spread by natural selection.
> a good x86 core on 5nm

But that is actually Intel's problem, you can not "just" put a good x86 core on 5nm (technically) and you need 5nm production capacities to.
This is likely due to low stock of AMD laptops in general (they sell like hot cakes). Once stock availability is improved, I would expect to see more in-store stock.
Which is hilarious, as IBM outsources its own network to at least two entities as well.

the meta-criticism here is actually making fun of people that would fall for this kind of correlation
> The work could help reconcile two sides of an ongoing debate about whether short-term memories are maintained through constant, persistent representations or through dynamic neural codes that change over time. Instead of coming down on one side or the other, “our results show that basically they were both right,” Buschman said, with stable neurons achieving the former and switching neurons the latter. The combination of processes is useful because “it actually helps with preventing interference and doing this orthogonal rotation.”

This sounds like the early conservation of momentum / conservation of energy debates. (Not that they used those words back then.)
Yeah I'm thinking that's because our interpretation of reality and it's abstractions är falsy and that filter is applied every time we update the memory. Maybe then when we are learning a new subject through say reading our filter is minimal and every time we read the same info we combat our falsy interpretation of reality.
I wouldn't be too surprised. Many people in my bubble see covid as a slightly worse flu, and yearly flu vaccination (iirc) is around 50% in the US.

MAX Falcon-8. $50 assembled, $40 DIY (some soldering, but easy). Add a few dollars more for switches and you provide the keycaps. 8 programmable keys. I wouldn't call it cheap but it's definitely cheaper than the author's option. I got one somewhere; it is nice but I don't really use it much nowadays.
Yikes. Sounds like they just didn't do a safety review.
Given that they are also apparently "opposing" the recall, I wouldn't trust them with a 10 foot pole now. They've put themselves in the same category as the Schlitterbahn, whose water slide decapitated a 10-year-old.
just write html by hand. With html5, implicit and auto-closing tags, it's really not more difficult than markdown. Then your "generator" is simply the cat program, that appends a common header and footer.
The article is almost entirely about what's wrong with HTML+CSS -- the frustration over whether to use tables, floats, flexbox, grid, or whatever will come next (as one example of many).

HTML+CSS is a soup of overlapping technologies that has accumulated into this tangled ball of mismatched paradigms from nearly 30 years of "generational" improvements.

I grew up with it from the beginning so I understand the reasoning behind it all. But to someone wanting to learn it from scratch, trying to decipher tables vs. floats vs. flexboxes vs. grids must seem like utter madness -- a layout language written by a truly insane person.
I think “being ahead in tech” can mean two things: we’ve refined and improved iteratively in things like reliability, distributed computing and processor tech but, I don’t think we’ve really had a real novelty since the rise of the iPhone.
I am the family tech support person and I have learned that the things that work best are wired, tactile, and easy interfaces. After COVID hit I set up my father's home office, but recently replaced his bluetooth keyboard with a wired one which eliminates downtime and frustration. My mom likes her iPhone 5S with a real button, and I've enabled accessibility options on her large monitor to show a gigantic mouse pointer. My MIL has trouble using social media and other phone apps, but at least can answer FaceTime calls because the answering interface is so easy to use.
