What about Libya, Syria, etc? IMHO none of these are examples where the world intervened with violent regime change just because a regime was abusing their people.

Libya 2011 was a civil war/revolution, the "boots on the ground" were locals, western nations weren't willing to risk their own soldiers in an actual intervention and it's highly debatable whether the civilian abuse was ever a reason for the western support (aerial and otherwise), IMHO it was essentially about oil.

Syria is again a good counterexample - Assad's totalitarian suppression of human rights and torture of opposition was notorious and one of the triggers for the uprising in 2011, but noone considered an intervention before 2011 or at that time for these reasons - Assad's regime is a clear demonstration that no, the world is not going to intervene just because your police is e.g. literally pulling fingernails off highschoolers who have been reported as criticizing the regime. The west was ready to intervene only a few years later in 2014, when the civil war had already raged for years and again it seems to have been done for entirely different reasons e.g. Islamic State, geopolitical tug-of-war with Russia and, again, oil - those things matter for likelihood of intervention, unlike just abusing your civilians.

Afghanistan and Vietnam are obviously irrelevant, IMHO noone is seriously asserting that preventing regime atrocities against their own people was the main driver for these wars, other reasons were clearly dominant there.

So in my view all those are just examples that the world is not going to do anything serious just because a dictator is murdering or torturing internal opposition. They may invade for various other reasons, and they may opportunistically support one side or the other once some conflict or revolt is already happening (war doesn't seem as horrible if it's all done by someone else's people fighting and suffering), but as long as the totalitarian state is in control, nobody is going to come and bust the oppressed out of their prisons just to help them.
As you might have guessed, many audio-only UIs have been developed for blind people over the decades. One example of an audio-only PDA (from the time when the term "PDA" was still widely used) was the LevelStar Icon. (Disclosure: I did some contract work for LevelStar in 2005-2006 and was friends with the lead developer.) After some digging I found an old audio presentation about the LevelStar Icon here:

Is this true on other OSs? On Windows at least env vars are inherited and will not change in a long running process if changed elsewhere.

So you can do something like nuke $ENV{PATH} in your perl script and it'll apply to any subsequent child system() calls.

Scalable Computing: Practice and Experience, is a great one. Especially the past issues where they talk about the basics of parallel and distributed programming.
https://www.scpe.org/index.php/scpe/issue/archive

Do they have a hardware or software environment for large scale computing? I think a good place to start is understanding their environment and expectations. Do they expect a move to another language, like Fortran, or to exploit parallelism in Matlab?

The piece under discussion here -- his first big depressive episode was apparently triggered by a breakup in his mid-twenties where they had discussed marriage and it was a long-distance relationship where they were living about three hours apart.

Historically, there were a lot of baked in assumptions about people marrying young, about the wife being primarily responsible for the women's work and the husband being primarily responsible for earning a living (and even that it would be a man and a woman -- we now let same-sex couples get married, at least in some parts of the world).

And there is just this huge amount of unspoken assumptions there that you can no longer rely on and it creates friction in relationships. Men who think that the key to everything is career success find that women don't necessarily see it that way anymore and women who want careers often don't want to pick up after their man and do all the cooking, etc. That competes with their time and energy and the ability to learn other skill sets.

So we have inherited a huge amount of assumptions about how life works and how relationships work and those things aren't necessarily true anymore. To the degree that we imagine they are, we are being set up for failure. This goes double when the two people in question are not seeing eye-to-eye on that.

Our entire employment structure is also rooted in this idea that for "serious" jobs, we will be hiring a man with a wife and kids at home and his paycheck and benefits need to provide for a family and his ability to work and focus on the job will be helped by the fact that his wife is handling a lot of tasks like cooking and cleaning that he doesn't ever have to think about or put time and energy into.

And we aren't thinking about the fact this doesn't work as an assumption for how to design our jobs anymore and we aren't thinking about how this impacts individual lives. Men who kind of implicitly assume that they need to be "good providers" and then all will be well and some woman will do the cooking and what not are getting the rug pulled out from under them when that same woman says "You are not worth putting up with." because she has career dreams of her own and no longer absolutely must marry to have much hope of some kind of reasonable comfort in life.

Marriage used to be something people did as basic survival and we kind of gritted our teeth and put up with each other even when it was really hard. And we are much more free to walk away than we used to be and then we aren't really thinking through a great many things that this change impacts, from the societal level on down to the individual level.

Nope. A blanket tariff that applies to everything equally.

AWS Professional Services here -- we all study for our cert exams using the site acloud.guru. They're not always perfect, but generally pretty good and handy for spot study. May be a good choice if you want to go deeper than these flashcards. AWS also offers in-person training sessions that are quality, but I'm not sure what the status of those are given the ongoing pandemic.
Can they fine organisations outside the EU?
> I think everyone is like this to a degree.

No, they're not. Neo-marxism/post-modernism made our current society that way.

Pre-2000, boys were boys, and girls were girls. Everybody acknowledged that the nuclear family was everything.

Since then:

- there's been a concerted effort to undermine Western society down to the level of the family by Marxists in order to tip over our existing society to seize power for themselves.

- the 1981 Adam Walsh kidnapping/murder with ongoing alarmist TV shows by his father scared American parents into confining children indoors. Today if a kid bikes a few miles, social workers show up at the parents' door. Almost never happened before the Walsh case.

What people can do who grew up after 2000 is:

- be very good at something, so you have internal validation

- watch Jordan Peterson videos on Youtube to counterbalance the current false societal narratives

- if you're a man, never sign a marriage contract in this era, and learn what the "sisterhood" and "gynocracy" are

- if you're a woman, understand your biological clock/anxiety and plan your family/children around that, or you won't have your own family - your career won't love you back. Feminism lied to you. Suzanne Venker has good advice on this.

Ask HN: Off-the-shelf computer for Oculus Quest 2?
Want to get an Oculus Quest 2 for fitness purposes. If I understand correctly I will need a PC for this. I already have the M1 MacBook Air but I gather that won’t do the trick and that I need a Windows machine with a fast graphics card. But when I look into the PC world it looks like a wilderness of graphics cards and power supplies and RGB case configurations that I don’t understand. I just want something that will let me play Beat Saber, Thrill of the Quest, etc. is there a such thing as a machine I can just buy with one click that qualifies for the Oculus?

NVME will pull ahead with higher concurrency due to the much larger command queues. With single or small sets of reads the overall bus throughput doesn't matter much and the limitation is how fast the control board on the SSD can pull in data and put it on the bus.

Whether the legislation in place is sufficient to be the “appropriate legislation” on the issue is...rather the point in debate, an argument which simply takes that it is for granted and proceeds from there is missing the entire point.
Gentlemen and women, let me warn all of your folks. Do not leave your real names on triplebyte, karat.io, hacker rank, leetcode and any other website precisely because of nonsense like that.

Also, on karat.io, the T&C are pretty much against you. Here is what their site reads.

Karat may
(a) record you and your Interview in any format, including video or audio;
(b) disclose the Interview and a recording and/or a transcript thereof to Company; and (c) use all Interview content and data, including your name, likeness, and voice, for its own internal purposes.

*Karat owns* all rights, title, and interest in the Interview and any works derived therefrom, including all copyright, and you hereby assign, transfer, and convey to Karat any and all rights you may have in the Interview.

*You waive and release Karat from any and all claims or other liability for any loss, harm, damages, or expenses * arising out of your participation in and any use of the Interview authorized under this Agreement, including without limitation any such claims alleging or arising as the result of Karat's negligence or Company's use of the Interview.

No sane person should be using these platforms.
Cool project, although it seems to think the word “male” has moderate female bias... word embeddings can be fussy.

I would think you could just compare cosine similarities between the entered word and words like male/female or man/woman (not sure if this is what you’re doing).
But it is connected. Thereby it can be remotely disabled. Which actually happened a few times. Because the battery is rented...

I think this is a slightly more nuanced response than "just do it". It goes to the core of the problem: that avoidance can easily become a habit. Avoiding building that habit (by doing tasks when you notice the slightest resistance) is good advice. But it might not necessarily be easy.
Why did it take so long? Because Bitcoin miners are the only people who actually pay their bills.

Perhaps socialists should use this opportunity learn a lesson and stop subsidizing stuff, but I doubt that will happen. The fact that government-sponsored schemes to pull the poor out of poverty always turn out to be a form of state-assisted plunder aren't a coincidence. It's supposed to work that way.
You can include links to other resources (e.g., an image) in an SVG file. Perhaps it's meant to help resolve those paths?

"Is your salary higher than the average salary" and "Is your salary higher than the average person's salary" are two different questions when you think about it. I interpreted all of these questions more along the lines of the second example, which meant I was basically using medians and not means.
My general understanding of 'turnover' includes firings, but not layoffs.

And that seems appropriate to me.

Maybe 'attrition' or some other term would more accurately describe how stable a unit/org is outside of firings.

Or you could just say 'Nobody has quit me/the org, but I helped two folks transfer.'

It’s fascinating to see a news organization that, due to editing after the fact, can never be wrong.
I understand what an equilibrium is. The question is: who are the players who are in equilibrium? Apple dictates the terms of the iOS app store. It's clear that Apple has a set of moves it can choose from. What moves do other players have, really, even if they were suboptimal?

It doesn't seem there really are any, other than to leave the app store entirely, which most would consider pretty extreme to the point where it's really hypotehtical. That's why I questioned whether the language of equilibria is appropriate in the first place: it just doesn't seem to be a pretty misleading framing of the situation.
Maybe. Body brokers are companies that own cadavers and sell them for medical research. The people who own these and similar companies have large numbers of legs and probably raise the average number of legs more than the few people who have one or fewer legs.

If we were betting on average leg ownership in the US I'd bet on slightly more than 2.
Could ordinary Soviet people buy themselves an apartment?
It certainly was, yes. The BBC Micro had an optional hardware speech synth you could add, but it was very inflexible, limited to a fairly small set of pre-defined words. "Speech!" could render arbitrary phonemes which make it a lot more flexible.

Sometimes when I go to a friend's house, they have dishes in their sink that have obviously been there for a number of days. Conversely, I have had roommates who will cook a complex meal, dirtying many dishes in the process, but still have very little cleanup after the meal because they clean efficiently as they go (a practice I try to emulate to varying success). I would say the former group is not very good at washing up their dishes, while the latter is (from my own observations, at least) better than average.

edit: this is also one of the easier questions to actually have a good sense of where you stand. I don't know how often most of my peers cry, for instance, but I do know how often I visit someone's house and they have dirty dishes lying around, or they leave dishes from a dinner party or get-together in the sink for the next morning, etc.
NVMe is a higher performance interface, so initially drive manufacturers used it on their higher performance SSDs.
With a linear time O(N) first pass you can identify the minimum element in the list. This reduces M from being the largest element to being the difference between the largest and the smallest element.
Agreed. Anyone that decides to come up with a "common sense" subset of emails to allow is more likely to accidentally block some perfectly normal addresses than actually accomplish something useful. I remember I once made this point in an HN thread, and I got a very dismissive and overconfident reply by someone who posted a regex that turned out to block my own email address (which had a number immediately before the @ symbol).

Writing code that doesn't need to exist that has a possible failure mode of not letting someone sign up at all is just a bad decision. If you're going to write that code, either go through the effort of getting it completely right or soften the failure mode. If you really think the user is somehow mistyping their email with special characters or an unusual TLD, then you could show them a non-blocking warning message.
Well, one can take a home equity line of credit (interest rates are ridiculously low) and buy shares to "mimic" FAANG employment returns.

My example is probably not very good. Let’s say you have a function which implements a callback. The function takes a &str and returns some subslice. Let’s say you want to implement another function which implements that same interface, but returns the string lowercases. In Rust, you have to update the interface, you have to update all implementations, and you have to jump through hoops to avoid unnecessary cloning in the subslice case. In Go or other GC languages, there aren’t “owned” vs “unowned” types, so you don’t have to make any updates to the interface or other implementations. In a sense, GC allows us to abstract over ownership.
What's wrong with having a front derailleur?
Not that high. You can check levels.fyi
Yes. But isn’t this point obvious?

There is no mathematical way to determine the true average of anything unless if there is some true measure that exists outside of perception.

So regardless of the sample size, you will never arrive at any true measure, unless if that measure is of the perception of self, on average.

Which is what this experiment is doing, as you’ve stated.
Why should they care though? Anyone with a catchall can create 7 billion normal looking addresses under their domain. It's not like it would prevent anything.

I did a cross-country ride in the 90s on a mountain bike, and I ended up putting bar ends on my bar ends. I liked the strength of a mountain bike for the occasional gravel road, but I needed to get hunched over for long days with steady headwinds. I ended up using the first bar ends for climbing, and the second bar ends for tucking into a wind. I'd never trust those second ends with any vertical force though.

These days, I'd just do that kind of trip on a well-specced gravel bike.
