Wait.. no. There is enough information out there that suggests that React's Context should not be considered a replacement for Redux. Just think about having multiple contexts and derived state - there would be scenarios where your view layer would be unnecessarily coupled with stateful logic or other undesired patterns.
He writes "We are not experts in the linux kernel..." after pushing so many changes since 2018. I am left scratching my head.
If your FIDO2 key is compromised, you can bin it and change to a new key.

If your fingerprint is compromised, where can get new fingerprints?

Device based security (like a FIDO2 key, or even a phone with an authenticator app) is great, beuacse when it's compromised, you can change it.

Biometrics though is even worse than a userID, it's public, left everywhere, and can't be changed

Basically anyone can just maliciously sue if they don't like a development and force a length environmental review process.

Also just as an aside, I'm in favor of large, expensive intervention for both climate change and the environment in general but Environmental review at least in California is basically worth nothing compare to investing a billion dollars in solar cell research or building a nuclear power plant.
But I am a programmer, and this code is going to be written and read by programmers. The experience from AppleScript shows IMO that a more English-like syntax does not actually make the language simpler to use, it just obscures the underlying semantics, making it harder to learn.
We must avoid using causal words like "raises" when a statistical relationship is found. To raise something is to cause something lower to become something higher.

What the study found is that the pattern of sleeping less than six hours is seen more in people who develop dementia.

The study's own discussion states: "There is evidence of a bidirectional association between sleep dysfunction and pathophysiological changes in dementia{citations given}, highlighting the need for a longer time frame in studies."
These numbers don't mean much on their own.

Sure, if you live with mom and pop and you got laid off from a job and had a place to fall back onto, yippee

If you live in pretty much any major city and you're the breadwinner then it doesn't cover rent/mortgage.

We froze foreclosures, so there are estimated millions pending. Unemployment is still in pre-pandemic numbers - all though improving.

I think our reliance on "job" to live is problematic when a virus doesn't care about the societal ramifications of a job.

I think we should talk more broader UBI programs and talk about what countries did that worked... do a huge retrospective and make things better for the future.
Wearing a helmet while riding a car will probably decrease your chance of dying if involved in an accident. It is also ridiculous.

This has also become my biggest issue with Typescript, and a lot of the people I have talked to about it agree this is the biggest pain point. I am not sure what a better system for this would be, but I do hope the Typescript team takes a hard look at this because I could see it being Typescript's Achilles heel.

> You're not being genuine if you are trying to argue that the coverage of liberals on Wikipedia is the same as conservatives.

And you are injecting a lot of your very uniquely American biases and perceptions into something where they don't really apply.

Wikipedia has over 140.000 active contributors across over 200 languages.

Your notion that all of them have conspired to suppress American conservatives in favor of "liberals", across dozens of different languages, is frankly quite a bit out there and reminiscent of that whole "cultural Marxism" narrative.

That's not to say that Wikipedia doesn't have its issues, it has them, but jumping from there to something that could very well be described as a conspiracy theory, is reaching a bit far.

> There's a reason why there's a Conservapedia.

There's also a RationalWiki, a PsychonautWiki, a GayPedia, there's a Wookieepedia, there's a Wiki for pretty much everything.

The existence of these is not evidence for a lack of such topics on actual Wikipedia, it's merely evidence of more specialized communities creating their own specialized Wikipedias where they can take things to details and dept that would usually be considered inappropriate for a general encyclopedia.

Hard to take GP seriously. India can even raise funds from various sources (see: PM Cares) if needed, to provide for these needs. They just don't want to, much rather line their own pockets than feed the poor (who happen to be their voting bank, but are too uneducated to vote in their own interest).

Entity Embed: Transform entities into vectors for scalable entity resolution
I was reading through the 'where' cases to see how complex queries are composed. I couldn't find any examples. e.g.

WHERE id IN (<subquery>)

if I built up <subquery> using the ORM.

The other uncommon thing I look for is eliminating N+1 not just based on a given query and related entities, but given a starting collection and loading their related entities and further related entities.

Icing is if it can do all the above while making intermediate results asynchronously available as it works through it all.
Smart Beehives- Finally
Beehives have hardly changed in over 100+ years when Lorenzo Langstroth invented a hive that can be easily managed by a beekeeper.

During the winter bees do not hibernate and must keep a temperature above 41ºF even when outside temperatures reach well below this. The bees do this by flexing their wing muscles and if their are not enough bees to accomplish the temperature increase they will parish. The typical beehive is only 3/4" wood (often pine) and only has an insulated value of around 0.75-R. Consider your homes walls, they are typically a 16-R or greater and bees have evolved to nest within tree hollows which often have over 6" of tree wall thickness, which is a 6-R.

There have been a few studies that indicate the benefits year round of bees in an insulated hive. So we created an insulated hive and then decided to add sensors to monitor the bees within the hives.

This is how Hyper Hyve was born. Our first round of hives will have internal temperature and humidity sensors, as well as CO2, hive weight, sound, accelerometer, GPS, Cellular connections, and all built on a python based program to assist the beekeepers.

As the system deploys and data points are gathered, we will start adopting machine learning to assist the beekeepers based on locations, environment, bee breed, among others, to help alert via the web and app when data indicates conditions of concerns or similar within the hive and allows the beekeeper to be more productive and proactive in managing their colonies.

That's really cool.

When I tried WSL a while back, file system access was pretty slow especially for scanning large folder trees with many files (important for programming projects). Is this still an issue or has it improved in that area?
Based on your subsequent comments, it seems like what you specifically mean is "reduce (probably zoning-based) restrictions on the construction of new residential buildings".

Phrasing this as "forced deregulation" is...not going to get people to recognize what you actually mean, because 95% of the time, when people say they want "deregulation," what they mean is they want big businesses to be allowed to exploit the middle and lower classes however the hell they want with no consequences.

If you do, in fact, mean specifically "reduce zoning restrictions on new construction", I suggest using phrasing like that, because it'll communicate your intention much more clearly. (If you don't, then I have misunderstood you, and apologize for the confusion.)
> Alternatively there could be a technology that levels the playing field so that instead of Disney being allowed to act unilaterally,

Such technology does not exist, and none of the proposals I've heard of implement it. I'm not defending Disney at all, I'm saying that if you routed everything through that DAO one day Disney could change to not routing in that way - and we're in the same situation as today. The fallback is the court system, and that wouldn't change.

I mean you can wave your hands about some theoretical system of the future that has address this, but none of them are really actionable.
When I first started studying software engineering/development/programming, I was bombarded with advice to question everything, push back on unnecessary features, try to get to the bottom of what was really needed and deliver that instead of what was being asked for and not to be afraid to say no. I took that advice to heart - I was a professional and in it for the long haul, trying to make a lifetime career out of this, after all. It took a long time for me to realize I was better off abandoning those platitudes and just getting my work done. Although the inspirational types are correct in arguing that the world would truly be a better place if everybody took ownership and made the bottom line their business, it's hard to make the world a better place if you get fired for being a PITA.
I think they don't, yet. I'm sure they have a plan for that, probably some kind of managed cloud service.
There will be no enemy AA. There will be no enemy air force. You do not understand the dynamics of this conflict. Ukrainian AA is entirely inadequate and it's airforce is a joke to Russia.

Beyond that, these drones are satellite-guided. You can't control them from bushes and forests. The Bayraktar TB2 that did the vast majority of the damage in Azerbaijan needs to take-off from an actual airfield, too.

What you might be referring to are loitering munitions. Their issue is that they have pretty dumb guidance, so all they are good at is going to predetermined GPS coordinate or homing on radar. The solution is to overrun their positions and use your airforce to shoot them down if they do take-off. They are very slow. It can be expensive to shoot them down but you only have to do so until you overrun their 60km or so range, and for the things in the danger zone you only have to use mobile assets that cannot be targeted via GPS.

In small numbers and without actual drones to help with jamming these loitering munitions are also quite vulnerable to AAA.

There are some long-range loitering munitions, like the IAI Harop. However they can only do radar-seeking missions without a base station and actually do need a base. Additionally munitions like the Harop have a very large radar cross section from anything but the frontal aspect and are thus very vulnerable to detection by modern aircraft radar.
I really tried that. But to this day I have not heard a convincing argument for what Blockchain is useful for beyond cryptocurrencies.

And when I see the discussions about Blockchain in the general public nobody asks for proof for statements like "It creates trust. It's safe, it's the future, etc ...".

So by taking a rather radical stance ("it will not revolutionize anything") you at least create a counter narrative.

WTF. I didn't have strong feelings about that until reading this thread. Nothing like doubling down on the assholishness after getting caught, Aditya.
you don't understand how electric markets work. electricity is bid on daily, based on marginal cost of production. solar has a very low marginal cost which pushes down the cost curve. the more solar energy there is --> cheaper price to consumers. however, utilities struggle with having a lot of solar/wind generation as there is a timing mismatch between peak generation and peak demand. bitcoin can be used like a sponge to sop up excess production and allow currently stalled projects to proceed without the need for additional new load.

Where does the "doubling" in the title come from? I see a 10-15% increase from the article. And only when the masks are used in a specific ordering: procedure mask on face, and cloth mask over procedure mask.

> wearing a procedure mask under the cloth face covering produced marked improvements

It should also be noted that there were 3 volunteers.

> Limitations of this study are that we tested only 1 type of procedure mask and that 3 volunteers participated in the doubling evaluations
How would that work? Google always decides the order of search results. Are they supposed to show a random result that matches the search terms just to be „fair“?

You can absolutely give money to citizens. The government is FOR and BY the citizens. If the citizens agree to shutdown, they can agree to provide a means to continue society through the shutdown.

No evidence? We know for a fact that US, Russian, Chinese, British, Israeli etc. intelligence agencies are looking for crypto vulnerabilities, and we know for a fact that they do not publicize the vulnerabilities they find.
You can’t attack the problems online advertising presents one by one, any solution needs to think about the other issues around it. It isn’t just about privacy.

If there was a reasonable sized white list of fairly harmless “interests”, then maybe. The way things are now, interest groups are too fine grained and far too personal.

I’m not convinced at all that granting small businesses access to this kind of targeted advertising is worth the risks it introduces.
>If the whole series of payments and services are on the blockchain, you could build a system that is reasonably secured against these types of situations.

I'm not intending to be snarky here, but statements like these remind me of the phrase "the devil you know is better than the devil you don't."

I have yet to see blockchain provide any tangible value, and in my opinion any future possibilities proposed like from this comment chain will almost certainly be plagued by similar (if not worse) issues.
I don't think we need a UBI that makes it easy to live in a city where ~$3000 month ($2400 + normal unemployment) won't cover expenses including housing.
And given the apparent failure of UMN's IRB, banning UMN from contributing to the Linux kernel honestly seems like a correct approach to resolve the underlying issue.
This won't scale. It will be like AppleScript for Web :)
Psychological safety isn't about making you happy, I'm actually a bit surprised why so many people here think it is. It's about producing positive outcomes in the form of successful projects. You're still going to have toxic projects, this isn't a magic dust you sprinkle on a project to make it suddenly successful, it's a technique you use to make unbearable work bearable and give the people who don't feel comfortable speaking up the space to do so.

The observation is if everyone feels comfortable disagreeing with one another, the project is more likely to succeed. That's it.

This is a productivity tool to make marginal projects more likely to tip favorably, and to keep good engineers around even when they're on bad projects, and hopefully make some bad projects less bad by giving everyone room to suggest improvements.
I don't think it's a development issue, it's an education issue. There are plenty of masks out there that fit well and are meant to be worn for extended periods of time, be it in a medical environment or a trades environment.

The problem is people who didn't wear the masks pre pandemic don't necessarily know how to properly fit a mask or how to identify product lines that are of higher quality and better for long term wear.

OSHA has a lot of great videos on this topic and has regularly published on it for decades, but we've done a poor job disseminating it to the general public.
University of Minnesota is involved with the Confucius Institute... what could go wrong when a U.S. university accepts significant funding from a hostile foreign power?

FWIW, that map isn't accurate. The border starts from the boundary of international waters, not the coastline itself, which cuts out a few areas (most notably Chicago and DC, as Lake Michigan and the Chesapeake Bay are no longer the starting point).

(I haven't seen the ACLU provide any legal citation to the claim that it starts from the coastline.)
This type of research just looks like: let’s prove people will die if being killed, by really killing someone.
Which is completely fine, IMO, because,as pointed out already, the university's IRB has utterly failed here. There is no way how this sort of "research" could have passed an ethics review.

- Human subjects
- Intentionally misleading/misrepresenting things, potential for a lot of damage, given how widespread Linux is
- No informed consent at all!

Sorry but one cannot use unsuspecting people as guinea pigs for research, even if it is someone from a reputable institution.
I would argue it should be "due to past academic research and activities of our PhD students and professors"

> A sever admin wants "Incident" panel that only shows anomaly components at the top coupled with adjustable alerting mechanism and not just a dump of all the data there is blindly.

Netdata does this too, with a ton of thresholds already set up by default. The list of active alerts is at the top, with a badge and everything. Notifications use a hook system, so you can use whatever mechanism you like. Personally I get emails for medium level alerts, SMS for high and above, and wall posts/notifications on my primary machine for crits. It took some tuning to get the thresholds right for me, all perfectly easy to do.

I agree I would prefer to have the active warnings more visible than the graphs, but one click away really isn't bad.
i think if you were writing such a program, this article would show that using such a number is a much more complicated idea than it sounds
> we bought new construction and didn't have to compete with anyone

In my market this isn't the case. Some builders are having literal blind auctions on small lot starter homes - after the X months wait list gets you there.
Because they would like to be in business in 5 years?

Incentivizing lots of competitors to invest massively in new production capacity just means that no one will be making money once that capacity comes online.
Just because someone meets the "X years doing Y at Z" criteria doesn't mean that they are great hires. I've met PhDs in computer science that could barely write python.

Resumes or similar self-marketing says a lot less than we would like. If there were good signals here, hiring would be a solved problem.
> I'm trying to think of a situation where either could ruin someones life but I'm struggling.

Ruining someone's life might be hyperbole but people certainly notice when the people they're messaging are online. Especially when they send messages and are ignored.
I have a built-in filter - I call it the "immune system". Fits perfectly, works perfectly. Most people in my part of London use the same filter - it's a very large experiment, and successful. If you prefer to reduce your brain's oxygenation all day, day after day, then I expect you will increasingly prefer an increasing number of masks.
That's not more accurately at all; you're still insinuating a causal relationship.

"More accurately, people with yellow-stained fingertips are more likely to get lung cancer."

The actual study's own title puts it more accurately:
