The way I would like to work is to have the repl open on the left hand side of the screen and code editor (like Sublime text, I'm sure many use Vim) on the right hand side.

I would run the code in repl (just using up-arrow and enter), get some plot, modify the code in the editor, save it, and rerun it repl.

Repl is used for connecting inputs to the program, not for editing. Often times you want to develop some small program that is part of a bigger program. So you run the big program up to the point it calls the small program. Or you run with some mock data. Then you have all your inputs for the small program, so you can start iterating it. Run - observe - edit - run - observe - edit.

In Matlab this worked because it detected if the file had changed, and reloaded it. You didn't specifically have to call load("my_function.m") before every call to it.
This means you can just lift code from the big program and iterate on it in repl.
I also like wire and just by chance found it to message my kids on their iDevices that don’t have a phone number like iPads and iPods. It works great and has all the main features. I’m even happier now that you guys inform me it’s secure also.
It seems like half of the rules are about political correctness, a quarter about consistency, and the rest about proper usage.

I can picture the "committee" that produced this. It has some good points, but is good material for parody and ridicule, too.
This is exactly the issue. Individuals cannot compete with a cash offer that often ends up much higher than the asking price. Almost nobody has that kind of cash on hand.
Except police killings are not a "distinctly" American problem. Just because it doesn't happen as often in other wealthier western countries doesn't mean it only happens in the US.

Moreover, statistically it's still very rare despite the increase in sensationalized media coverage.
The uniformity of police violence is almost completely unexamined in the large news outlets. Why do our tax dollars go towards "killology" bullshit?
It's in line with recent behavior toward e.g. Huawei and 5G. What's interesting here is that Softbank is a Japanese company, but reading the government announcement you'd think it may as well be Chinese. It would be interesting to see the UK explain to Japan, somewhat of an ally, why its company is a national security threat.
I'm not familiar with the concrete law, but monopoly/market based rejections could probably be disputed and result in lengthy proceedings. Not so if you swing the national security hammer.

Also, as others have noted, it's quite possible that GHCQ has backdoors into ARM designs that would be jeopardized.

But despite being owned by Softbank, Arm Ltd. is still incorporated in the UK and has their headquarters there. If chip design is seen as a essential national capability, the national security argument is valid regardless, in my opinion.
I'm quite excited by the CM4 RPis. There are quite a few variants but all retain the same form factor and connector pinout.

These little boards are fostering a lot of new break-out ideas for all sorts of purposes, from Routers to NAS with a lot of specialised equipment in between (great for industrial and automation).

The great thing is that the core component remains the same, with known software that (generally) works well.

You could make special boards with a few CM4 on them, all interconnected and ready for parallel computing.

you could already do these things with the CM3 but the new versions have better and faster interfaces that make high bandwidth applications possible.
React is :) https://github.com/facebook/react/
Interesting that there are no languages with "flat" names. I can think of two reasons:
- the word "sharp" has more positive connotations
- if you're limited to the keys on a usual keyboard "flat" would be denoted by "b".
I've been working on a fixed chromatic solfege system (MaNePu) for a while as well. It uses a repeating vowel pattern which I find produces some really interesting effects. In MaNePu, the chromatic scale is ma - ne - pu - qa - re - su - ta - ve - wu - xa - ye - zu. In other words, consonants starting with M til the end of the alphabet, and rotating through the vowel sounds "ah", "ee", and "ooh". What's neat about this is that the pattern repeats every minor third, so that means every diminished scale internally rhymes! Similarly, transposing any melody by a minor third will also result in a melody that rhymes with the former. Likewise, either whole tone scale will result in a reversal of the vowel pattern. There are other fixed chromatic solfege systems that use an alternating vowel pattern, but MaNePu is the only one that uses a minor third rotation (the others I've seen typically alternate by whole tone), and I think it opens up some interesting avenues for music education.

I like your shortened chord quality convention, though MaNePu takes a different tack. Instead, it favors what I call "descriptive chord naming". Instead of being prescriptive about the quality, a chord is simply described by appending the notes contained within it. This is great because it also removes ambiguity in the cases where a chord might include certain notes or exclude certain notes implicitly. So Dmaj7 would be PuTaXaNe ("Xa" is pronounced like a "j"/"sh" sound sort of like in Pinyin). It also typically reduces the number of syllables spoken, like your system.

The superimposition of 7 on 12 as you put it, is indeed a problem, but there's also an issue with intervallic favoritism (of half and whole tones). After all, there are 7 note scales with minor third intervals, and so on—imagine a world where one of those scales was the basis for diatonicism. Representing that on a keyboard, and the subsequent accidentals would be a nightmare.

Notation is the big unsolved problem, I think, but I'm aware of some work being done in the area if you're interested. As far as the public facing projects I'm aware of, Dodeka is likely the most promising.
Because the node size used to be a reliable proxy for power efficiency, performance and price characteristics. That was true for decades, until the node size became so small that the quantum effects changed the game.
Not sure if it's really minority.

Have been using desktop Linux for almost 2 decades, My last 2 workplaces have been Linux desktop centric. Helped deploy quite a few Linux workstations.

I don't know many people that use Gnome.

Most use either KDE or some tiling WM (or some custom fork of Gnome2/3 that looks nothing like default gnome).

When Ubuntu dropped unity, some people went to gnome, some stayed but at least in my circles most bounced off.
Isn't julia hub still remote? You can't install it on an airgap or behindnyour firewall on your own equipment can you?
It should be supported by most programs that use the c library to resolve hostnames, I believe.
Coalition of big investors pushes banks to defund carbon emitters
As I’m clearly missing the bigger picture, what do you find to be super offensive about this?

I read the first as the concat symbol applied to an iterable leads to string concated by the concat symbol.

I read the second as an iterable broken by split symbol leads to an iterable of the chunks.
Er YC owns around 7% of most of the companies it invests $150000 dollars in? The potential for them to keep adding 7% of many billion dollar companies seems very high... YC is an incubator not a VC or management company.

Sure I haven’t factored in dilution but still...
Funny, "Police Killings" sounds like the issue is police being killed. For such a verbose language we sure do communicate dissatisfactorily.
Not clear why US should be concerned about the sale to a US company?
Maybe. But for a country the size of the U.S. this would cost the entire country an additional $2.4 trillion. One of its primary effect in developed countries might be on rent, especially in rural areas.
OK. I was curious whether it was part of the type system or one of those #[feature] thingies.

UK has 40% tax on 50k pounds and Germany has 42% tax on the equivalent 58k euros, doesn't sound like big deal unless I'm missing something here.
How do you know that I won't steal funds from your account?

Do you simply trust that I won't, and that your bank trusts me not to do so?

I suppose the question is, what's stopping me? Trust or security?
This phenomenon has been known and crystallised in research for a long time, but also has been talked about for even longer. At this point what is true as anything is that it doesn't really matter how accurate your results are, the economic system not changing has nothing to do with a lack of a correct answer.
While this is true isn't it helpful to make people feel included.

I grew up in Toronto, Canada where "guys" was widely used as a gender-neutral term in most contexts (admittedly there are some phrases where a gender is heavily implied). However when I was working at a tech company in Dublin, Ireland I noticed that if I addressed a room with "guys" women in the room would often feel excluded. This is not unreasonable given the different dialects and the minority of women in this setting. So sure, we could say that she is wrong for feeling excluded but when many minorities already feel excluded it seems wrong to use language that reaffirms that nagging feeling constantly whispering to them from the back of their mind.

And avoiding the term "guys" is a simple case even though "Y'all" and "folks" sound really odd to me, I agree that there is a huge spectrum here and the line of what is reasonable and what isn't is incredibly fuzzy.
I think the cause and effect is a bit mixed up in your reasoning. What's actually happening is threefold:

1. People are starting to get fed up with tracking of all kinds (including third-party cookies). This is happening gradually, but is increasing. A consequence of this can also be seen from the legal side in the form of GDPR.

2. Google sees the tides on tracking are turning and tries to preempt by proposing a superficially less problematic alternative (FLoC) that will be least detrimental to their tracking business.

3. People dislike FLoC because it is not sufficiently lessened in this new normal and is therefore also unacceptable.
Multiple dispatch is usually class-based as well.
WordPress could treat Google FloC as a security issue
If you turn off autopilot and put a brick on the accelerator the Tesla may also drive into a tree! Or any car made in the last 100 years for that matter.
>Seems to be the strongest/easiest route to go to justify blocking it. The whole national security angle and all.

What makes you think so?

So Intel - US / TSMC - Taiwan can be considered as national security, but ARM not?
Don't know why this is downvoted.
We have gradually increased training and qualifications of the police force in Victoria (Australia) and from what I understand it's been quite effective at reducing police violence.
Trivially? Have you ever tried to implement a text parser to enforce a style guide?

The low-hanging fruit is when there is a banned word with a defined replacement. For instance, in this Google style guide, all instances of "auto-scaling" should be replaced with "autoscaling."

But if you want to go much deeper than that, it gets very tricky very quickly.

For instance, how would you programmatically detect and correct text so it conforms to this style guide's Anthropomorphism guidelines? https://developers.google.com/style/anthropomorphism
So much of the past on display here is doubleplus ungood.
Is Kleidermacher genderless though or do you mean that the male version has been historically also applied as the genderless term which is kind of the whole problem of the last few years? Macher is male and Macherin is female. Same as Bäcker and Bäckerin, Polizist and Polizistin, Programmierer and Programmiererin. That's why in German people have to say things like "Liebe Bekannte und Bekanntinnen" now.

Stirling Heat Engine to Stirling Heat Pump: How Is It Done?
Glad to see more posts on Elm out there, it really is a great language and ecosystem! Like any large project, it has some issues, but in my day-to-day writing code I have never had as much fun, or had as much confidence that my code does what it says on the tin, as I have with Elm.

I wanted to give a shout out to one of Jeroen's other projects in the Elm ecosystem, elm-review (https://package.elm-lang.org/packages/jfmengels/elm-review/l...), it is an excellent linter/fixer and allows writing your own rules as well.
Because UK when they discuss Trade Agreement with 'Murica needs some chips for leverage.. I am pretty sure, someone is still kicking themselves (in UK) for the deepmind's Google purchase.

It is prudent for the world we are ushering into. I do not blame them. The world in which ARM was bought by SoftBank is different literally and figuratively.
A lot of the later investors were clueless retail investors who didn't understand/notice dilution and reverse splits when they invested in Moviepass's parent Helios and Matheson ($HMNY).
If police can't identify who, they have no good justification for detaining anyone, much less everyone.
I didn't know that. So let's say I have 4 regular Python threads calling the same function, and in this function, let's say I call numpy.add on the same array (but different parts of the array), then will it actually use different cores for these 4 different threads? I will try it out, if it works, then that's actually great and would be super easy.
But SoftBank is selling ARM to NVIDIA...
We need to vent our laser cutter to the outside. There's also considerable danger that what you're cutting catches on fire, so they need to be supervised. It's not just the cost of the machine--they're not just "plug and go"
It's the ditch that keeps on giving.

I think we are on transition slogan number 3, quite the compensation to being cut off from your customers for many businesses I'm sure.

Edit: Is the HN hive telling me Brexit is a good thing then?
I wonder if moviepass somehow survived if it would have been able to negotiate with theaters.

The writers assumption that the executives were "clueless" almost made me stop reading the article, as they clearly don't understand the long game, and as such why should I read about their take on economics?

Seems pretty clear the investors money (not the executives, really writer??) was being put to use to eventually strongarm the theaters into more of a revenue share.
That carrier board doesn't seem to have a price yet, but if you don't mind buying used (and saving some perfectly capable devices from becoming e-waste at the same time) you can usually get a second-hand thin client for the price of the RPi CM module alone.

Instead, European languages have a tendency to gender everything. I imagine that’s an untapped “problem” in some folks’ eyes that will boil over sooner or later.
That's not a failure of OOP, but a failure of design.

This could have easily been avoided if `join` would have been a method of the list object, not the string object. But we're stuck with this now.
> could still not be bothered to put in some minimum effort to protect themselves.

What would have been the minimum effort that would have protected them?
Enthusiastic not just willing
that's useful, thanks :)
I think a sufficiently large number of people is saying they effectively do not care about the surveillance-based ad industry and want it dismantled.
Is there any evidence that a society can function without inequality? Equality would have to be enforced, and unless that enforcement was done by self-maintaining automatons, I don't see how it persists. Perhaps a cycle of catastrophe and rebuilding is necessary to maintain a functioning society, in which case, the question of what constitutes a minimal viable catastrophe that accomplishes that goal becomes interesting.
I can't scroll on mobile without tapping to download an app. Ugh, when did Tumblr become such trash.
There is a flag in chrome where you can force it to unload tabs. I haven't needed it on my (newer) computer recently, but I used it on my old laptop. The downside is that if a tab unloads, you'll need to refresh it to open it again, possibly losing state. But it significantly reduces memory footprint.

I think it was this that I was using: https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2015/09/tab-discar...

But I'm pretty sure they've rolled this into mainline now. You can go to chrome://discards/ to see the status of your tabs.
12 tones is the smallest approximately rational scale. There's a technological reason for preferring this. Up until fairly recent times, a musician had to be able to tune and maintain their own instrument. Also, we can't grow more fingers.

There may also be a benefit to more widely spaced notes, notably (!) that it's easier to distinguish if you're playing a "real" note or not, and if it's the same note as the one you're hearing someone else play. This would make it easier to learn musical ideas and pass them on to others, giving 12 tone music (fewer tones if using an agreed upon scale) a built in error correction code, and a sort of evolutionary advantage over time if you will.
I have so many V.35 cables laying around the GPIB feels small.
> It seems you and others are confused here and do not understand what is meant by "digital currency"

You started of staying "currency is not digital", a broad statement about which I don't think there's any confusion, it's just flat-out incorrect. If it's not digital then what is it then, analogue?

Now you're talking about a particular form of digital token, which OK, maybe currency isn't that, and the usefulness of that isn't given. Saying "currency isn't digital because it's not this token" is like saying ".png files aren't digital because they're not .mp3s". It's still numbers in computers. You know, digital.
Is their having a car meant to be proof they aren't homeless? And I would encounter several panhandlers just on a short walk to work in Boston; should this one anecdote from an unknown place be enough to completely change my perspective?

So would switching it to a non-profit government body? NPCI (India's quasi-government retail payments infrastructure company) is a non-profit and they're looking to switch to a for-profit.

It worked quite well, I'd say.
Some of it seems to be down. I use Gandi for my DNS, I can still access my site at www.example.com but the redirection I have from example.com to www.example.com doesn't work.
In a flawed world that deals perfectly with its flaws, infinite storage would be a service you can optionally buy from an open market of third parties, alongside optional identity mediation (for those who definitely don't want their identity bound to a device or SIM or some other PID known to the core network). Bonus points if the technological and organizational interface between third party and core network is paid, I believe that this would be one of the least bad ways imaginable of funding the core network.
- Why single out Holi and Kumbh, where there are large gatherings like political Farmers' protests, Ramadan and other religious gatherings are still going on, while the Kumbh (where entry into the district was with RT-PCR negative certificates) & has been called off at the Prime Minister's request.

- The majority of cases come from Maharshtra: 670388, UP:191457, Karnataka:133543, Chattisgargh:128019, Kerala:93683,Delhi:74941 (for a single city state these numbers are high) - which are non-election states.

- Poor vaccination drive: Nothing can be father from the truth. India is one of the countries which has superb last mile vaccine delivery capability and connectivity till remote villages. Currently vaccination for 45+ age group is being rolled out successfully (with Covishield and Covaxin both). If anything there was lot of anti-vaxx created by media and politically vested interests which resulted in vaccine hesitancy. Now, the same voices are crying hoarse why we cannot vaccinate 1.3 billion people in a single month?

Great, then my comment was worth it!

Not sure there’s anything to prevent you from foot-shooting if you’re operating on the same array. I’d expect that this is only safe to do if, as you say, arrays are not overlapping. Let me know what you find.
The fundamental problem is that Erdogan has no clue about economics. He is envious of US and EU countries because they have both low interest rates and low inflation. Interest rates can be controlled directly by politicians, so he thinks that by controlling one variable the other one will follow. He got it exactly backwards, interest rates are primarily determined by the market and the central bank is trying to follow the market rate, which theoretically is unknowable but usually inflation + some is good enough. This is why central bank independence is considered the primary predictor of low inflation, because the central bank can actually do its job.

You have to look at the total investment rate and the total savings rate. Over the long term they should not drift apart and for low inflation you want the savings rate to exceed the investment rate. When people decide to cut back on consumption .i.e. they want to save, they will save regardless of what savings vehicle they end up choosing. The real interest rate (interest rate minus inflation) is way too low for the Lira. A bank account with Lira deposits is simply an extremely bad savings vehicle. People just stop saving, or they put their savings elsewhere, mostly USD, EUR and sometimes Bitcoin. Banning foreign or cryptocurrencies doesn't really do anything, it's akin to pointing a gun at someone and saying they should put their money into a bank account anyway.

Ok, lets assume a perfect savings vehicle called SV exists (0% yield and 0% volatility). We can benchmark the yield of currencies against this savings vehicle. For the sake of the argument assume that Lira has 10% inflation and 0% interest then it will have -10% yield. Picking SV will grant you 0% yield, which is 10% more than the Lira.

If you raise the interest rate to 10% then the Lira will have 0% yield. It will be equivalent to SV but SV is considered more trustworthy. SV has effectively set a lower bound for interest rates. Any lower and people will just run away from the Lira. Therefore the interest rate must be higher than inflation and this premium depends on how confident "savers" are. You are basically pricing in the default rate.

Let's apply this to a different market. The US (corporate) savings rate is so high that negative interest rates are necessary, the problem is that treasury bonds put an effective 0% interest lower bound. Interest simply cannot shrink lower than that because lower interest rates will simply lead to purchases of treasury bonds. The answer in this case is to raise inflation instead because it acts as negative yield on excess savings. The easiest way is to simply print money and hand it out to those who plan to spend it, the increased spending will drive unemployment down. Another solution is to just increase the investment rate so that excess savings are being soaked up and interest rates will rise naturally.
