That’s the difference between theory and practice.

In practice the snakeoil may prevent you from using your computer more frequently and therefore result in less infections.

In practice I observe a lot of people fumbling out unwashed pieces of cloth from their pockets and placing them in their face, hoping it would preserve their respiratory health.
Yes, this makes total sense with a proper vendor relationship.

Security engineers, unfortunately, have a weaker voice at the table than do the marketers and bean-counters.

The more secure means would be to require the car be taken to a dealership -- but that's costly to the auto maker (they have to pay the dealers for updates they apply), and is deemed an inconvenience to the customer. They worry about the friction on the customer, and the cost.

With OTA updates, much of the security relies on using signed images. The SoCs in IVI systems are fused with the auto maker's key.
It's a bit presumptuous to suggest the OP "has limited perspective on how career development, seniority, and hiring work".

Also, I most certainly do sort by price when I'm looking for real estate: I have a budget, after all. Same thing with employment: most people have needs that salary requirements can meet, and it's pointless to look for jobs outside the range one can accept. Therefore it's almost certainly the best and most useful first thing to sort by.

Others have more freedom. For example, thanks to a recent IPO I can literally work for no salary and be fine. I have far more freedom to consider other details about a job than 99% of the population.
An auditor hired by the seller has an incentive to make the seller happy that you cannot eliminate, only reduce through legal threats.

An auditor hired by the buyer has no such incentive.

> I am always surprised to see comments that make it sound like jobs (or, employees) are fungible commodities that can be bought and sold purely on price.

I highly doubt that the parent comment meant that he would literally apply to the job with the biggest number with no other consideration.

I read it as the far more modest claim that, if even _seeing_ the number requires a significant investment of time and effort on your side, the efficiency of the market is highly restricted. Especially since, once you do see the number, you usually need to take it or leave it within a short time frame; you can't "open up" a lot of job offers and then pick the best.

To use the real-estate analogy again, how would the housing market be affected if buyers had to put down a deposit to even _see_ the listed price? And if the sellers had the ability to get a complete profile of the buyer before revealing their price? It seems pretty clear to me that the average house price would significantly increase, despite the supply and demand both staying the same.
One of my favorites is "Whitespace" which could used as a polyglot esoteric language (e.g. to deliver "hidden" code): https://esolangs.org/wiki/Whitespace
Sublime can do big files without any issue, the specific use case here is if it all sits on a single line. Most XML/Json files are not single line, but yes it happens.
You might be too early to those companies. In your case, I would learn about people first before doing anything. During a pandemic, everything just becomes hard for everybody so if you don't really know people (at least in-person contact or a strong ref) - should not invest too much time.

I don't think it was an overreaction. I think it was a very valid reaction.
Exactly this. If they would mail me a USB stick with the update so I could do it myself I'd happily do that, but driving 20-30 minutes to the dealer, waiting for the update, and then driving back home is an enormous waste of time.
Is that a joke/reference? It doesn't make sense. There must be a more efficient/reasonable way to defecate.
I'll do you a deal:

Put 5% of that 2 million into a spread of the top 10 crypto by market cap.

After a few years, and despite some of those coins going to zero, you'll likely have done way better than just the 50% you'd have got from me.

If you don't though and it all goes to zero, you only lost 5%, as opposed to the entire 2 million to a random person you met on the internet.

You're welcome.
I don't want to pile on here, but give another reason why you might care how people did things 5, 10, 20 years ago: you're likely to encounter that code at some point.
Oh woah, I've never seen that visualization - very cool. I only meant to really highlight that often things are thrown on the complex plane and presented in introductory material as making the problem in 2D. The few times I've seen this (physics, math and signal processing classes) I've never actually seen it emphasized anywhere that the complex plane is fundamentally different from a cartesian 2D plane. It's the crux of the whole spinning unit circle stuff and then why you get orthogonality

I still find the visualization completely unnecessary b/c it doesn't help illustrate or give any kind of intuition for why the basis vectors are orthogonal
> But you haven't justified why that is an irresponsible use.

Because it's just a financial instrument, and it uses more power than the Netherlands, and we have a climate crisis going on. I'm not sure what it is you don't see here.

Any new financial instrument that added a whole country to the energy map like that would be a bad thing.
I thought this was about avoiding cybersecurity risks, not introducing them?
Sounds like you've come to the same conclusion as Pareto, specifically that the "elite" members of society can, and should, circulate to ensure stability. He also thought that when the upper strata of society becomes closed to membership that inequality and instability are the result.

It would still be an improvement. In situation like you speak of people's cars would be as insecure as they were without the switch but at least the capability is there for those who want it or learn to be security conscious.
Fuck...That is fascinating. Thanks! :p ;)xx
I agree, but equalizing money is a good first step. You can't really tax and redistribute power, unless I'm not thinking creatively enough.
This guy does some seriously awesome stuff with CSS, but a lot of it is in the "Don't try this at home, kids." category.

Let me give you the method to solve x^2 + bx + c = 0.

Answer: solve (x + b/2)^2 - b^2/4 = - c instead.

Why, you ask? Well, first of all because some long-dead bloke figured out this neat trick and it would be a shame not to use it. And secondly it is easy arithmetic to figure out that this is an equivalent problem, so if you solve it then it certainly gives the right answer.

Maybe it is just me, but if you cannot grok this then I think that your difficulties with mathematics are not curable by spending more time trying to develop intuition on this particular problem. And therefore I fail to see what Professor Loh brings to the table here.

Edit: it appears that my position is being misunderstood. I do not think that someone who does not grok this argument will never be able to properly learn mathematics. I think that they should instead focus on things like logic and arithmetic and, for this particular subject, on playing with quadratics (plotting them and finding their extrema, for example). Any dressing up of the above argument for the quadratic formula is, again in my view, akin to trying to 'develop intuition' for something like the third digit of pi - it is just what it is (4 I think).
Just for the speed of large file, on macOS, I find the BBEdit is great too. The basic functions of BBEdit can be used for free even.
That's why people include inspection clauses in their offer contracts. If the inspection reveals an issue it must then be disclosed by the seller going forward, if the buyer can back out due to the clause.
>I'll keep my very efficient Audi diesel car (79g/km CO2) for now thanks.

Diesel vehicles emit a lot more NO2, as well as particulates that damage the lungs. Sure, it's less CO2 than gasoline cars, but is it worth it for urban air quality?
I've gone down that rabbit hole of pure-CSS components, frankly its a worse maintainable nightmare than using JS where appropriate.
“ In seven days, the over 100 nuclear power reactors run out of emergency power and go Fukushima, spreading radioactive plumes over the most populous half of the United States. ”

I didn’t see in the article, but why can’t the nuclear power plants shut down well before they ‘go Fukushima’?
I just read that IEEE statement, I'm glad someone else has started noticing the paper was bullshit in addition to unethical:

> Investigation of these patches revealed that the description provided by the authors in the paper is ambiguous and in some cases misleading. The experiments do not provide convincing evidence to substantiate the main claims in the paper and the technical contributions of the work need to be revisited.

Interesting that they list ethical considerations added to the review process, but are not adding content quality considerations to the review process. I think that's at least as embarrassing to PC. You can say that they erred in assuming the uni covered the ethics review, but what are they doing if they're accepting papers without checking that the papers support their own claims?
On M1, Sublime is still faster than VSCode to open. The bouncing icon is not even done bouncing back down that the whole project is open in Sublime.
Yes still very fast in Vs Studio, but there's always something nice about Sublime being able to get to a file so quickly.
VSCode supports remote editing and running language server in a container.
Okay, let's go with your hypothesis regarding "inherent property of unperturbed social structures". It sounds plausible at a "high level".

Is there upward mobility between the levels? How much resistance exists for upward mobility? Is there an impact through "the underlying political system" to this mobility? How much?

If perturbation what helps to prevent sedimentation, you listed "wars, ecological catastrophes, and pandemics" which most of us consider negative, but also wrote "[s]uccessful technological innovations". What kind of innovations are you thinking here? Tubes to transistor, transistor to IC? horse to car, car to airplane? Do you have a quantitative definition of this successful innovation?
There's some linguistic ambiguity here. We can talk about "individual things" as in individual grains of sand, etc. and we mean "one instance of multiple similar".

Then there's "individuality", which for social animals means that a member of society is largely self-sufficient. Take any human and besides a sexual mate, they can pretty much survive, even thrive, by themselves. But take an ant, unless it's a queen, and it'll run around confused and die. The ant is inseparable from its hive. It is not an individual. It's a physically separate body from other members of the hive, but unable to exist on its own.
Just do what you love. If it does not make you feel happy, do something else. You are at the exploratory phase - don't commit too early if you are not truly deeply interested in those. It's indeed a key to win a game.

Yes, but asking politely won't do much, unfortunately.

In my opinion, a golden age society would have so much perpetual change that it would be extremely difficult to pass privilege from a generation to the next.

> A competitive market would enable me to sort by salary and benefits and apply for the best job.

The idea that there would be a bunch of generic job listings with fixed salaries makes you essentially a replacable drone with no unique value, and sounds horrible to me.

Also a free market doesn't need to be absolutely transparent. That's just something you would want because it sounds like it would be easier, but uncertainties about the future, unknowns, and consumer wants is what drives the whole pricing game to begin with.
I'd say that "nesting is bad" has replaced SASS. Nesting encourages long selector chains which are generally a bad practice. That CSS makes this painful is a nice reminder to only use long selector chains where necessary.
I’m an avid diver, resident of CT, and have a higher tier membership with Mystic Aquarium. This has been a very big deal around the state - with efforts from the congressmen and senators to lobby the federal government. Multiple emails went out on a frequent basis to the aquarium members to lobby for the permit for Mystic Aquarium. In February they launched an fundraising campaign with a $500k matching grant to care for the belugas. In December their year-end giving appeal was “Act Now to Help Bring Five Belugas to Mystic”.

And then, nothing.

I find an article about it on Hacker News of all places.

I get that there was some sensitivity about it given the lawsuits they had to fend off, but while we got an email about changes to the dinosaur exhibit this week, they didn’t even mention the belugas.

Maybe SpaceX has spoiled me by setting a standard for showing off their work.
I think automation engineering is the future. I just read about Eltra Trade that supplying industrial automation equipment in Europe and throughout the world. They offer automation equipment at https://eltra-trade.com/catalog/burkert with integrated motor overload protection, a wide range of models available, inline circuit preference or inside-delta circuit availability.

Awesome. Sublime is my favorite editor by far. Performance, multiple cursors, and syntax highlighting is all I need

Couple questions:

1. I already have JSX and TypeScript plugins installed. Should I remove those?

2. When will there be a `~/Library/Sublime Text 4/` directory now?
It's also useful to be able to know what you're looking at when reading code that others have written.
Rust Macros Rule: DRY Warp Routes
your point is fair. i agree with the idea that allowing outrage to drive all conversations is terrible.

at the same time, i feel like i’d have known better than to generalize like this and publish it. i understand there’s context about how/why it was said.

i’d really love to be able to express my thoughts that border on “anti-woke” but i don’t. i feel like the only way for us to be honest about our feelings is to be anonymous.

i guess at some level i would hope this person would’ve been smart enough to know that. there’s a social game we all have to play, and just because it sucks we can’t not deal with it.
I agree more generally. It is commonly understood that innovation causes disruption but I think it might be more correct to say that disruption causes innovation.

Of course it still goes both ways and I think sustained technological revolutions are cases of fire causing its own wind.
Eh. I wouldnt buy a house that came up first based on price sort but I would rule out most/all houses that cost less than X. Salaries are the same thing. I'm not going to consider a job that is X amount do if the top range is below that I'll skip it. It's a time saving tool.

Sure there are about a billion other factors to look at but if the salary is a non starter then why waste the time to interview even if everything else was perfect?
But I thought of that as a feature: it's great to make cursed images!
And the dollar isn’t?

One is backed by aircraft carriers and the force of law, the other is backed by math and an egregious amount of energy usage.

Contributing to open source is not as easy as people say. It's like saying "here's the death star Lego set completely built, try to add to it." It doesn't teach you anything besides making a contribution...of which you'd only know how to do if you understood more about programming for that thing.
I'm already mortgaging at a a good LTV, so I do not expect it to fall further in the next 5 years and I'm willing to pay the premium in exchange to the lower risk although probably financially is not optimal.

But my point is that in Italy I could get a 20 year mortgage with a ~1% fixed rate for the whole period, which is lower than the same LTV UK 2 year rate, which is crazy. I can't believe that the risk of default is generally significantly lower in Italy.
In what way? I have used Sublime2 and 3, which might feel faster, VS Editor (I think is the name), much heavier, and Atom I think is the other. Never felt "wow, this is the future".

I've worked on a lot of legacy codebases that implemented some of these older design patterns. Understanding the history is essential to knowing what to replace it with.
I know it's been said before, but no Tailwind does not replace CSS.

Tailwind replaces having to come up with a new semantic class name every time you need to style an element only to realize the actual semantics you picked were completely wrong.

Tailwind is basically a cleaner way to do everything as inline styles.

The (classical) derivation of the cubic solution involves square roots of negative numbers. Hence it either requires unsatisfying hand-waving, or knowledge of complex numbers.

That site's terrible. It's a few dozen charts with no analysis aside from red arrows pointing towards 1970s. There's no thesis or conclusion, but the implication to the reader is clear: the abandonment of the gold standard is responsible for a variety of today's societal woes, from income inequality to obesity. It's tiring to argue against, because of the sheer volume of it (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gish_gallop).
I'm not aware of a good book, but here's a website that has finally made me understand postmodern thermodynamics :
(Though I perhaps have a non-common path of learning modern thermodynamics, then skipping basic physical statistics, only to jump into advanced physical statistics later ?)

http://www.av8n.com/physics/thermo/entropy.html

Some core ideas :

- 19th century modern thermodynamics are hopelessly obsolete (at least if you want to understand the "why" and/or do stuff more advanced than "basic" heat engines ?) with tons of confused notions like "heat".

- The term "thermodynamics" itself is bad, "energo-informatics" would perhaps be a better one ?

- Entropy is just a redundant term for (the lack of) information about a system (= macrostate = distribution).

- Hence, you need at least some quantum mechanics : Heisenberg's unsharpness principle (and Plank's constant h) to be able to build the theory from the microstate up, because you need to be able to quantize position and momentum to define information.

- disorder is another of those misleading terms
This already happens. If you look at most job postings, many will say "market value," for the salary. They are typically horrendously low.
Interestingly, I use price-sort extensively when doing online shopping. I don't often buy the thing that comes up first, but I certainly use it to help figure out the tradeoff between price and quality, and to filter out items that I have no reason to consider. Also, price-sort eliminates one of the psychological burdens of shopping, which is the manipulative presentation of products by the vendor.

Price-sort is a very crude version of an even more powerful tool, which is: "Show me everything about every product, without trying to manipulate me, and let me organize the data by criteria that I choose, not that you choose." This is why Excel pivot tables are so popular in business.

Anything that makes the job search function less psychological has to be beneficial. Nothing prevents me from taking a pay cut for a particular job that I absolutely love, in a favored location, etc.

Oddly enough, product marketing and hiring share a common feature, which is that both fields have endless amounts of verbiage about how psychological manipulation is actually beneficial to the person being manipulated. If so, it should be an opt-in feature, perhaps even one that people are willing to pay for.
