Python packages, in general, are much bigger though.

And you'd probably be surprised how much the stdlib is used. In many environments third party libraries have to be vetted by security, or the developers are junior and can't probably check/understand a third party library so they just take the safe option and use the stdlib and hand-code a bit to make it do what they want, etc.

Plus, the third party packages that are used generally have to offer much higher convenience or quality or scope (or all three) to be adopted over the stdlib alternative.

So the bar is much higher than leftpad or is-odd.
Don't think we can compare it to opencv actually. In the context of this projet, opencv can be used as a ML backend the same way I use Tensorflow.
Thanks for checking it out!

Good question, this is slightly different than lru_cache in that it persists to disk so it retrieves from the cache even when you rerun the Python interpreter.

Also it gives you a bit of flexibility as when to refresh the cache and to use or ignore function parameters. I often make a change in one 'group', db data for example, and am able to just refresh those methods that gather data from the db.
I don’t understand how your client can solve for someone else sending you top-quoted replies, or word-html-engine compatible HTML designed to work in outlook. Or eighty other people hitting reply all on the email chain you’re on. The clients other people use can behave completely differently, because the protocol leaves so many decisions up to clients.
I didn't see it sickening. It seemed like a story from small town politics. What is neat that in the end they did get upgraded poles which lead to companies bidding for a service, and 90% of the city supposedly subscribed to Spectrum.

Did they end up paying more than funding it with the taxes? Maybe.

The issue with targeting advertising is its ability to create problems.

I was going to say: cases like this illustrate how insensitive such advertising can be. While it sounds like she underwent sterilization since she didn't want children, there is also a possibility that the choice was forced upon her for medical reasons or that she didn't undergo a procedure but was sterile. Of course, that would have happened even if the email was sent to everyone rather than targeted.

More realistic issues pop up when the criteria are prejudiced (age, gender, race, etc.) or criteria that may have an implicit prejudice. Using income is more likely to bias towards a particular gender due to well known income disparities. Using postal/zip code is more likely to bias towards a particular race simply because of the amount of segregation we see in housing. While those biases don't guarantee an outcome, historical and contemporary ills in society means they are a problem.
This is welcome. We had a streak of cat killings in London and police is not doing much, because if someone got caught the maximum penalty for such cruelty is 6 months. It essentially means having to wear a tag for few months and maybe do some street sweeping.
This is disproportionate to the trauma caused to families. For many the suffering is comparable to losing a human family member.

the penalty for just using recreational quantities of drugs vs. dealing them is way less harsh though
Seriously, nothing like spending a day building an image in a way documented only to see it blow up and fail, resulting in having to redo the whole thing.

No, I disagree- the phrase “toxic masculinity” was coined to contrast it from ordinary, non-toxic masculinity. They were making sure to be specific that masculinity by itself is not toxic, just specific behaviors.

I associate positive masculinity with traits like: being brave, responsible, open hearted, generous, and so forth.

We can actually predict when batteries will hit the wall. Chemical laws are known well enough to put a limit. We use lithium batteries for reasons related to physical rules like electro-negativity (I'm too long from my chemistry to do more than throw out the right terms). The periodic table of the elements puts a limit on how much power different chemical reactions can produce. We can thus calculate a theoretical max battery beyond which nothing is possible. In the real world that maximum might need atoms that are unstable (more energy released by atomic decay), but we can ignore that for the theory.

I don't remember enough chemistry to do the above calculations. Someone does though, and they tell me that batteries won't get more than 4x smaller (I of course can't verify this claim - perhaps someone else can).

Probably yes. Alternatively, it shows that the road textures used in GTA V were not very apt for their job. I do think the smoother ones look considerably more realistic.

This. I thought those were photos they took somewhere that looks exactly the same as GTA V, but then when I watch the video explaining it I was like holy crap. No Ray Tracing or whatever tech demo was ever this close to photo realistic.

Could someone explain this in greater details? I suppose you will still need to create some decent base image or graphics for the enhancement to work to its maximum?

I keep hearing about hydrogen and batteries being an either/or problem, but it doesn't make sense. For one thing, gas/electric hybrids exist and have been successful despite requiring two engines.

But with hydrogen it's even simpler because a fuel cell already feeds an electric motor. You only need one engine to use both forms of storage. And the advantage of putting a battery in your hydrogen vehicle is immense: you get cycle optimization, regenerative braking, improved peak acceleration and cheaper short trips (w/ plug-in hybrid) because while hydrogen can compete with electricity on convenience, it will never compete on price.

Granted, the battery brings a weight penalty, but potentially much less than if you tried to deliver 600 miles of range with 18 wheels and 60 tons gvw.

Is this a problem for Tesla? Not if they just acquire a hydrogen startup if/when the time comes. The market for pure electric vehicles will not go anywhere. The question is whether the administration has the necessary competence.
Well first, "sickening" is a fighting, somewhat hyperbolic word. Second, I wouldn't call your attitude sickening, but I would call it unfortunately fatalistic. First off, politics happens one step at a time. Second off, if you read to the very end of the article, his efforts weren't completely in vain. At the end, the big providers came through and delivered some form of fiber, which let him sit with a very comfortable and serviceable 85 mb/s. Not a complete victory, but certainly a minor one.

This is similar to how the “pixel art” versions of old console games never existed because the TV CRTs didn’t have definite hard lines between pixels. Computer Modern was designed to be bitmapped when printed and so took into account that it would all be dots not infinitely thin lines.

Amusingly enough, this is basically "The Renaissance" done in a short time; just as they perceived the "Greek" style as bare marble statues and buildings which never actually existed.

Let me guess: You're one of those hippies reading papers on your screen in order to save the trees.
There is a distinction between what is legal to do and what is socially acceptable to do. While black mail over illegal actions are the most common example used, a society that is very liberty focused in the law but who has strict standards on what is considered acceptable behavior can still lead to blackmail.

A society would need to be both liberty focused and tolerance focused to reduce the potential for someone to be blackmailed, but this runs counter to the notion that the fallout of blackmailable material being released is a just occurrence.

Blackmail is a side effect of punishment, legal, social, or otherwise, and the only cases where I think the majority will agree to reduce punishment to reduce blackmail is cases where people already believe the punishment isn't deserved.

Best practice for languages with this "var" approach is to use it when the type is obvious or irrelevant and to explicitly declare the type when it is non-obvious and relevant.

If you are reviewing code and can't instantly tell what the type is for a variable, ask the author to explicitly include the type. Problem solved.

> there’s no way a native species wouldn’t find a healthy balance if left alone

I guess it defines what you mean as “native” as it takes a while for species to hit equilibrium and survive. But environmental effects change that balance as well as humans.

So it seems tautologically that any species in balance is “native.”

In reality, species can easily overpopulate and go extinct or extinct others. See stuff like the North American camel that died out.

Or the gray wolf population in the US West that is growing quite too high, despite being “native.”

In my region, deer are very plentiful in suburban areas because humans crowded out their natural predators. They are native but are overpopulated. Hunting helps reduce their population. If you remove hunting then you must deal with their overpopulation some other way.
I think when bad things have good qualities, people still admire those good qualities while being wary of the bad ones.

In this case, obsessive means that they put in effort that others wouldn't. It could lead to ruin, or it could reward them greatly.

The bad part is the lack of detachment that lets them think about it logically, instead of being forced to just do it. Reward or ruin, they're going to do it either way.

Thanks! In terms of backend engineering, I'd say one of the trickiest things is always depending deeply on a third party service or provider to be the backbone of the value you add.

That's a pretty high level answer, but in general that's the most difficult to wrangle with over time, in my opinion.

To give a more concrete answer, every slack instance and the way people configure it can be a little different, and in some cases we found it tricky to find the right consistent location to pull information like display names from.

In terms of what is unexpectedly easy, Slack themselves been great at giving us feedback and advice for building on their platform!
Years here
I've met two types of good programmers.

Fast programmers that write something dirty first, and iterate it until it's working well. John Carmack is like that.

Slow programmers that think about a problem and then write code that covers all scenarios they want to cover.

There are advantages to both styles. Both styles have disadvantages as well. Fast programmers sometimes have the tendency to not deal with details, so their code works but it's not bug free. On the other hand slow programmers might spend a long amount of time thinking about a solution and then realize it's not going to work within of a few minutes of writing ten lines of code.

In a way, bad programmers as also fast or slow, but the disadvantages of those approaches outweigh their programming ability. So they either write really dirty code or take ages to finish something and it's not even a good design.

Due to agile and probably human nature fast programmers seem better. You know, the dev that did the thing in one weekend. Think about Linus Tovarlds writing git in a week or two. Sounds amazing, yet it had to be iterated a lot and it still suffers from some of the decisions made in those two weeks of initial development.

For the record I am a slow programmer, but I have devised systems to help me speed up to appear like a fast programmer when it's in my nature to want to think about solutions over writing dirty code.
I'd say "powered by diesel but moved by electric motors"

Trains have different requirements in terms of how power is applied to the wheels, and the loss of efficiency is acceptable in this context.
Why do you want track your tasks and accomplishments? Do you do this for yourself or for somebody else (e.g. a manager)?

How do you measure accomplishments and results? Those often are different from the tasks required to achieve them.

I use Remember the Milk for keeping track of personal todos that need to be done by a specific date. When I collaborate with others, it's whatever tool fits the work and the workflow. This could mean GitHub Issues, Jira, or Trello, for example.

Otherwise, I use Bear for noting down particular achievements I consider, well, noteworthy.
No, I also don't like it. I use LaTeX for papers, and I tend to go for Palatino.

But there's also an annoyingly performative aspect to it, at least in Economics. Using a recognisable LaTeX font carries an implicit "look at me: I'm smart and technical enough to use LaTeX".

One result of this is that almost every Economics presentation you see is done with Beamer; which lends itself to dense text, bullet points and equations; which are almost never the best way to present your work.
Nice! Will definitely check this out.

Honestly, because it takes work. I'm not even talking about technical work, but creative work. To do this well, you want to think about your message and then about how to convey that message not just in the content, but in how the content is presented (sometimes geocities-esque chaos isn't quite the right vibe). Then you need to figure out how to fit that presentation into the assumptions of your web technology (I personally feel like the DOM is a straitjacket, but I'll concede since I don't work heavily in the front-end myself, maybe there are cute hacks that make it less so, short of just making the page a full canvas for something else like three.js)

Anyway, I've developed two "fun" pages myself, playing around with alternative ways to present content on the web:

1. https://maxsond.github.io/ (website traversal as interactive fiction)

2. http://tilde.town/~indigo/ (website traversal as pseudo-CLI)

Neither of them really flesh it out to what one might consider a full website, but are more light-weight experiments in alternative ways webpages can present content.
Can confirm, the question was on obfuscation strategies when designing rather than Reverse Engineering.
If I'm understanding your question correctly, it's neither! It's something you'd draw on with your mouse or trackpad on a laptop. We also have other tools you can use to make it easier to tutor math (e.g., ability to add text and shapes to the whiteboard, ability to upload photos of homework, etc.). If you want to see exactly what it looks like, check out this demo video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SufRUje0XiM

In the future, we actually do plan to add audio to the platform as an optional feature that students can turn on. Most students prefer the text-based communication of our current platform, but there are definitely some who would use audio if given the choice. We still need to think through how to get mutual buy-in from both the student and volunteer in that session as well as whether we want to do additional background screening for volunteers who want to use that feature.
Hydrogen is far more efficient. At least for long-haul class 7 & 8 trucks. The problem is the massive infrastructure investment needed to support it.

All the substantial investments I've seen in commercial long-haul trucking are in hydrogen. You have Tesla, Nikola and others claiming they have a long-haul battery solution but they are full of shit. Tesla has already delayed their Semi for 3 years now. Nikola is a joke but even they were pushing hydrogen along with their BEV stuff. And the legacy CV companies are, again, only investing in BEV for short-haul stuff.
It doesn't. Its an incentive for early adopters to establish the system. It's like a startup giving lower prices to first customers.

I agree that innateness claims are very very seldom true or even plausible. I make a different claim: hunter-gatherer H. sapiens was a different kind of “human” in almost every political and social sense, even if there’s significant biological continuity. And conservatism properly understood (at least when it avoids specious arguments) concerns politics and society, not raw biology.
Some sentient animals can be sterilized and/or involuntarily euthanized.

Seems pretty lame if truly “sentient.”

Not sure what definition of sentience they are using as certainly none of these animals are truly sentient. Arguable primates, but arguing a cat is sentient is foolish.

It’s possible to assign greater protections on animals without fake labeling them through laws.

Continuous Deployments =/= Continuous Disruptions
It irks me that there are no links to the laws or even the actual name to look them up, but banning trophy import doesn't seem like banning hunting itself. That seemed like they're trying to subvert international trade for Rhino horns and Elephant tusks and stuff. I'm sure you can still hunt the local deer just as long as the reason isn't to export antlers to the UK for profit. International antler trade presumably only becomes profitable if deer are so rare as to be endangered, not when they're common enough that slowing the population growth is a net good. So this seems like an attempt to disincentivize the already illegal poaching of endangered species, not to prevent Africans from doing any kind of hunting at all.
Having done drugs in the past is not "police misconduct". Enforcing bad drug laws is also not "police misconduct". Conflating these things is not going to help you fix any of them.
