Designing Audio Effect Plugins - https://www.routledge.com/Designing-Audio-Effect-Plugins-in-...

This book teaches you DSP and also how to apply those DSP algorithms by employing them inside an audio plugin.
When my brother bought his house (UK, built in the early 2000s), we had to buy insurance against the local church needing a new roof. The residents of the area were responsible for local church upkepe because of a medieval edict. It was only about £40 luckily...
That's a straw man. It's a balance between your time and theirs, and I presume you don't think that all bug reports are carefully considered and well-written. Many are even obtuse, aggressive and self-entitled. I'd bet most well-written, civil bug reports are at least taken seriously, even if they end up as a wontfix.
Cops or people employed by the transportation provider? I only saw civil employees in my life so far.

A common practice is to also LOCK stale issues, disallowing any further discussion.

IMHO, it's a terrible practice, since it pushes for infinite duplicates completely losing the trail of previous discussion.
> Bob's WhatsApp client reads the message and reports it back to the WhatsApp server.

In every copy of the app, WhatsApp explicitly says, "Your messages, calls and status updates stay between you and the people you choose. Not even WhatsApp can read or listen to them."

Of course, the scenario you describe is possible, but WhatsApp would be lying.
I agree. It really beats me. The organizer did write on the event info page something like "don't share on SNS". While it's a curious coincidence that it's specifically this link that gets deleted, AFAIK there's no way for an organizer to prevent sharing apart from making the event private and requesting attendees in free-text to keep it to themselves.

The only thing that I think could potentially be controversial would be that it was a social gathering during the pandemic. The event page itself was and still is up. If it was deemed against FB rules I'd expect it to be reflected in some way on FB, and not just by deleting WhatsApp messages refering it.

I really can't give a good reason apart from "some ML model got triggered somehow, which prompted a human somewhere to look at it for a couple of seconds and click the delete button"
The concept of object output isn't slow. PS is mostly slow because it's based on .NET and they didn't bother optimizing it.
Yes, although at least both Android and Fuchsia are released under genuinely open source licenses, even if they development model isn't open.
You have to have something. Some reason.

If you have a good reason, the truth is the best. But if you were in a drug rehab facility, for example, you don't want to say that.

So if you can't say what you were doing, then you need something very believable that is not provable.

Now, of course, if you are applying for some super security job, one of the 3 letter agencies, then you just have to tell the truth and not have any spin, because they can and will do a thorough background check. But if you are applying at Pete's Auto Parts, they are not going to do that.

So, for Pete's, here's what you do:

OPTION 1:

Make up a name for a business. Rxsel Company.

Say that for the last year, you were working on your own business. You were doing research, testing prototypes, seeing if it was a viable business model. But it didn't work out. So you are now applying for employment. And, it is the truth. That's what you were doing, right?

What was the business? I don't know, whatever is of interest to you. Come up with some details. If you are like most people, you have some personal interests that you read about a lot. If you like marbles, you were going to start a virtual marble game. Or if you like furniture and read all about it, you were going to start a furniture business. Whatever you know about.

I've done this a few times, worked like a charm. I've also recommended this to others and it worked out for them as well.

OPTION 2

Or, you can always go with the "I had to help take care of my parent for the last year, they were sick. But they are ok now, so I'm looking for a job." Nobody is going to probe that too much, any interviewer is going to take that at face value.
Ok so is your issue that Mozilla makes revenue (which I think is GREAT as that gets them off the google dependency) or that it ignores previously set preferences?

In the latter case 100% agree and Mozilla is shooting itself in the foot as users that actively turned it off probably simply don't want it and will be a tiny minority. But do we know yet whether this happens again with this update?
It's never permanent until it is. Cue 'forever chemicals' that were definitely harmless. Cue CO2 emissions - no one ever thought it's an issue until it is literally an existential threat. Cue nuclear waste - "nah, we'll figure it out".

I really do wonder if Kessler syndrome will happen, with the amount of cheap&cheerful stuff we are sending into space.
> I don't get why they even needed agents on the plane at all.

To extract them from Greece (an EU country) and avoid their arrest?
Huge apologies for now naive this probably comes across but when would PrEP be taken?

Is it for people that are exposing themselves to potential carriers in unsafe ways? Is it a way to slowly kill of the disease in populations (if everyone that would be exposed would be taking it)?

I'm genuinely asking as I haven't come across it before and I wonder if it's just because i'm sheltered or other reasons (I live in the UK so maybe that?).
Care to articulate, even vaguely, this cultural divide :)? Is it a kind of boldness or recklessness?
It's definitely not the "vast majority", but it probably is often the most highly paid and visible. I worked in software eng as a graduate in London and it was pretty good. At that time EBay and other ecommerce businesses were just starting up and I had friends who worked there. Most businesses operating in the UK have head offices in London, so they will all have opportunities there. I know Google has a massive office there now by Kings Cross, not sure about other FANG.

I don't know much about the startup scene in London, but it's not going to compete with California. My knowledge of Indian software companies is mainly outsourcing, which I'm sure is massive in Bangalore, but I don't know what the start up scene is like there.

Living / working in London is really a lifestyle thing. Many people from the UK would be happy to work outside the capital either remotely or in a smaller city. Good wages in London (for Europe), but expensive living costs.

Because they come from a print medium where serif fonts are the norm.
Definitely the latter! Thought (1) was a pointer to some source
The regex came from the article, and lack of unicode is addressed in the article.
In select mode, you just start typing as if you had already pressed c. It works similar to text selections in Windows.

I might be misremembering but isn't there a key combo ([Fn] + [Ctrl] + [F7] or something?) that enabled control selection and shows the underlines. I haven't used Mac OS for a while so I might be wrong!

Edit: I'm impressed I even remembered that!

Hmm, that's an interesting point.

I would encourage them [= someone who only spent a couple of hours on Unix] to dig further... broader. Mostly by demonstrating that there are real world problems for which Unix is better suited than competition.

IMO in Urbit -- there was not much more to explore after the few hours. Short of digging even further into the guts of it... and that was very unappealing.

Other people here in the comments mentioned that there's no killer app for Urbit. So my intuition was probably correct [to stop digging].
I love Inkscape. Taught my self how to use this 15+ years ago. Use it 2-10x per year since.

It's always there. It does not change UI much between releases. I dont have to download a cracked version of some commercial tool because I'm to stingy to buy expensive software for a simple task at hand.

Inkscape (and Gimp) have helped me a lot in this regard.
Note that in a common law system, this would be thrown out of court under either "acquiescence" (if you don't raise a fuss for a very long time when someone unknowingly infringes your rights, you can lose those rights), or "laches" (if you wait long enough to make a legal claim that the defendant is injured by e.g. having made economic decisions in ignorance of that claim).

Not sure about the equivalent Italian law, but I would be deeply surprised if there isn't something similar.
Maybe $20/mo. The bandwidth is growing but not too bad so far, every once in a while I see a really huge transfer that makes me wince (seriously, who sustains a gigabit/s for five hours?), but I've still got some margin before I run up against the monthly transfer allowance. When that happens, I'll probably move the server to a provider that has a slower but flat-rate bandwidth plan, maybe Scaleway. Transfers would be capped by their network limit (100Mbit?), but effectively free.

I might also change the transit relay to throttle the connection somewhat after some total number of bytes have been transferred (but that takes actual code, and switching providers would be easier). I'm really glad folks are using it, but I do sort of think that >10GB at a time is a bit much. But I don't have a way to notify a given user about any sort of soft limit like that (the transit relay has no idea how much you're going to send ahead of time, and doesn't have a notification channel other than throwing an error).

I've also been meaning to figure out NAT hole punching for years now, and the thought has always been that hole-punching will save a lot of the server bandwidth by making direct connections happen a larger percentage of the time.
Not that that would help anyway. That's becoming increasingly an appeal to authority. There isn't anybody to do the review that isn't a colleague or a competitor, or worse part of an established GroupThink.

Peer review has had its day due to specialisation in science. The gold standard now has to be replication from the published method.

Therefore: not replicated.
AWS is increasingly a standard that people need to learn to get employment, and the risk of a huge bill because you have misconfigured something somewhere will put off a lot of people, particularly students, from learning it in their spare time in hobby and school projects.
Show HN: A simple site to share map of the states you have been to in India
Could Evo have landed in Basel? Could he have returned to Moscow?

Which airports could he have landed in?

To be clear; I'm not saying that the US pressure and European action were anything but petty. But you know; not all pettiness is equivalent to kidnapping a civilian plane.

Also, while I'm not willing to assume the best of intentions on the US's part; neither am I willing to assume them on Evo Morales's part. This grounding was in his interest - he had nothing to lose, and everything to gain. I doubt he tried to prevent the confrontation, and he may well have even taken actions to enhance the appearance of victimhood - it's always nice, playing a victim; especially if you're not actually suffering any harm.
The encryption may be E2E. The key management is obviously central, as you can figure out by asking how whatsapp web works.
It depends what you're trying to accomplish, but I found VCV Rack to be a great environment to implement synth ideas without having to worry about reinventing the wheel. Trying making a Rack module!

>> because their functionally is so small it's always going to be obvious where the flaws

> That, sadly, won't scale.

You're contradicting the UNIX philosophy: make programs so small that they're inherently simple (or so simple that they're necesserily small). I think that's what the other commentor meant and that does scale.
yes, it's great!

It doesn't have alt<char> to enter normal commands from insert mode (double the number of lines).

It doesn't have (Vim 8) terminal mode.
Johnson and Johnson. Because you only need one shot and you are good to go. Immediately followed by whatever vaccine is available at the moment. Which leaves, at least for the next couple of weeks, with option three: none of the above.

So definitely not holding out.
But then it will just take longer. You'll still have to pick which side of the average you're on, plus how extreme (or maybe you'll just never pick the extreme).
Jamstack comments suck – but they don't have to
One of our public facing systems I put up a silly "what is the capital of x country?" While we waited on some other stuff. I think it's still in production.

And to my knowledge no bot has gotten past it or even bothered.

I don't know if this means, that it will not be fixed. It sounds, that there are already some fixes integrated.

But why was the CVE updated to the latest version?

I have tested 8.6 on my machine, and the described exploit still works :-(

Perhaps it is fixed in the next release?
GNU Hurd will be released any time now!
Mathematician's Delight by W. W. Sawyer seems a good book.
Yet Google's Browser engine is a fork of WebKit and surprise it is used in Chrome, Electron and QtWebEngine and everyone is using it.

As Fuchsia is highly dependent on Flutter and the whole ecosystem will be able to run Flutter apps on day 1, I would bet that this is going to be the Android replacement in this decade.
There is no Mac equivalent to this Windows feature.

You can set up a shortcut to move keyboard focus to the menu bar in Keyboard preferences under Shortcuts (in fact you can remap any application’s keyboard shortcuts there). That’s also where you can enable keyboard navigation between controls.
And this is frankly ironic because for so many years one of the biggest complaints against desktop Linux by Windows user was the lack of uniformity between Qt, GTK and other toolkits interfaces.
As raggi mentioned above, you can use both.

The additional feature that FEMU provides us is Vulkan support, which allows you to interact with a GUI.

On the team, we use both. For example, I know many folks on the Zircon team prefer vanilla QEMU.
Wth happens under every Firefox post? It almost seems like a bunch of paid accounts writing incoherent bullshit. If there would not be the same whiny reaction to a few linux technologies (dare someone mention systemd, pulseaudio, wayland), I would definitely believe so.

Natural Language Generation Using GPT-Neo
Someone is checking your passport so they know it’s the person who is on the ticket. It’s not a conspiracy to collect ids because the government already has all the information on the ID and you had to identify yourself to buy the ticket.

The difference due to the Schengen Agreement is that on landing you can just pick up your luggage and go, there is no border patrol checking your belongings.
I am no MD - but I am curious, perhaps someone who has a clue can comment on what I am going to say.

I believe that Liver Cirrhosis is caused by scaring due to fat being retained in the liver. I understand that fat is retained when the liver is metabolizing alcohol, and that if this is a short term thing then the liver can expel the fat and no scaring occurs. But if you persistently force your liver to metabolize alcohol scars appear and this is irreversible - the scarred part of the liver cannot recover and provides no function from this point.

My question is, what is the amount of time that you should leave for the liver to have cleared alcohol and how long would it take for fat to be expelled?
At the risk of spinning of a tangent flamewar: this ties into a wider issue that boggles my mind to this day - the concept of "necroposting" as something negative. People will commonly want to eat you alive if you post a new reply under a stale discussion thread, but that reaction feels really dumb. The old context is useful.

Welcome to Article 11 & 13: https://juliareda.eu/eu-copyright-reform/
that's quite irrelevant. not everyone has the time and energy to deal with legal uncertainty or a lawsuit. even if they can't take any money from you, the stress could have a major effect on your life. so no thanks.

and if you run a business, it's automatically a no-go.

however, what really matters for FOSS is that suggesting the license does not matter only reduces the strength of FOSS licenses. you are effectually suggesting that licenses can be ignored.

note that i am not suggesting that the author of the product should change their license, or clarify it with regards to self-hosting, just that your advice to ignore the actual license is dangerous.
Nindalf's position is not that all Bay Area Indians are blind and aggressive Modi fans. So your observation does not really contest that.

Re-Identifying Banned Social Media Commenters with Machine Learning
That's always been the case. After Win95 came out, every OS revision and Office release changed the default look and feel. It was most noticeable in the toolbars. Started out with visually raised buttons (like regular interface buttons), then the buttons went flat, then the whole toolbar was raised via a gradient, then everything went bonkers with ribbons (meanwhile in browsers you had huge buttons with text below as yet another alternative).

Or the checkmark/cross ok/cancel buttons that were quite common (Borland?).

That "old" look and feel co-existing with "modern" flat/web designs just made the differences more noticeable, never mind the often associated differences in icon sizes and styles.

Not that other systems are better. Linux always had too many widget toolkits (and now those awful upside-down window-title-toolbars), and even Macs always had at least one weird option (e.g. brushed metal or too iOS-like thingamajigs).
>Right now the App Store policies are able to nudge developers towards pro-consumer behaviours.

Yes, and they can also nudge us to pro-Apple business model behaviours such as direct payment instead of ad funding or force us to mislead consumers into paying higher prices than are available elsewhere.

They can also enforce random cultural biases such as "no porn" and threaten our human and civil rights as a side-effect of banning side-loading. In other cases they help to protect our civil rights.

So that's the dilemma. Apple can make arbitrary rules for arbitrary reasons, sometimes helping us, sometimes hurting us. Taking away Apple's right to make those arbitrary rules would allow other companies to impose their own rules without giving users a real choice.

One way or another, users and small developers are left with very little choice and very little freedom.
I hope you continue to social distance for $N years, because vaccination isn't just about you -- its about protecting those who would be at risk.

It's also about reducing the risk of mutation. The more people it can infect, the greater the risk. We don't want to be dealing with a new variant that the vaccines don't protect against, and go back to square one.

Being scared of a well-tested vaccine over a virus that has killed 3.5 million worldwide and continues to do so is ridiculous. The vaccine is why things are slowly starting to return to normal.

Given a choice, I would choose Pzifer over Moderna, since it has fewer side effects [1], but otherwise they're both good and protect approximately equally against known variants. I wouldn't choose J&J or AZ if my age is below 60yo because of a very low risk of deadly side effects (clots).

Edit: unless my BMI > 30, in which case any vaccine is better than no vaccine, because of the increased risks of covid-19 on high BMI.

What is interesting about Fuchsia is how Google first created Flutter and made it popular for Android/iOS and to a lesser extent the web. And now they start releasing Fuchsia OS/devices and developing apps/software for it will immediately feel familiar to many mobile developers.

This could help adoption instead of yet another GUI framework to learn from scratch.

You don’t need to wait for a certain period of time to decide that a bug report is poorly written.
People don't consider it a reason not to go on an interview because 95-99% of job postings don't include it because they know nobody else does and they can get away with it and applicants don't have a choice. If a reasonable number of postings included a salary range, omitting one would tank an ad's response rates and you'd see the trend change very quickly.
