I think you are on the right path, it also explains why Russians are so good at Math because сколько is a 2 syllable word vs. "how many" 3 syllables and two words.

To be serious, Russian morphology restrict the number of short words. A verb or a noun will have a suffix that changes by plurality, case, gender, tense etc. and often a prefix. E.g. a pretty common word such as "come" in "Come to dinner with us" will have four syllables in 'заходите' because its root has a vowel, prefix has a vowel and suffix has two.

Question words are grammatically pronouns in Russian so they have all the morphological features of nouns.
I don't disagree!

I really do feel like the only reason I was able to get through it all is because I was in a mentally/emotionally/spiritually compatible state when I read it proper. I am quite positive that if I had tried to read it when I was sure of anything that I would reject it exactly as you describe.

The only way I can see it being rewarding for someone (who isn't in the midst of the same affliction PKD suffered at the time of writing) is to treat it almost like archeology alongside his published works: read the fiction, then read his mindset about it, and abstractly note things like "ok this week he thinks it was because his spirit was memetically reincarnated"
Notably, when I decided to check my Android 11 privacy settings, first thing I noticed is that every setting page has a help icon at the top with an explanation what the settings are...except privacy, which is the only section with no help, and no explanation, and no 'report feedback' option
Sure. On paper a mesh network that is open to several devices is really cool with a ton of potential.

But as you yourself know because you specifically don’t want an Amazon device with a microphone that the positives are for many outweighed by the part where it’s owned and operated by Amazon.

Worse, you’re right Amazon is in the limited group that can pull this off (largely because this is explicitly opt-out instead of opt-in) but it’s also this behavior that makes the whole thing gross and unpalatable.

We shouldn’t be paying for corporate spy robots in our own homes. We shouldn’t be subsidizing an Amazon-specific mesh network to make Amazon’s products work better. Even if this gets extended to third parties those third parties are going to have to play ball with Amazon to use it.

There is a version of this that could benefit everyone but as it is this really only benefits Amazon and that’s a net negative for everyone in my opinion.
This is my problem right now. My dentist told me my ground-down molars are some of the worst he's ever seen, but my splint makes me snore terribly (I wear it anyway). Not sure I'm up for jaw surgery though!

I was homeschooled up until college.

I had finished standard high school course work by around sixteen, so my parents had me start taking CLEP tests.

At seventeen, in what would have been my senior year of high school, I took a few classes at our local community college.

Basically, even in the strictest states (I grew up in one of them), homeschooling is a good mechanism for opting out of the stupid parts of high school.

I don't really buy that they weren't hacked. Between the absolute absurdity of Watergate and various intelligence sources commenting on how multiple different groups had access to the DNC in 2016, I'm under the impression that they are always compromised.

Instead, I bet the DNC actively made sure no possible leaked documents were overly politically damaging, so no "hack" occured.

This is so nauseatingly entertaining, and a distillation of similar bullshit I've encountered freelancing for various agencies and startups.

It feels like this field is ripe for trolling - people making fake accounts and making similar inspirational posts that are a bit too outlandish but could almost be real.

Or maybe these troll accounts exist, but the posts are indistinguishable from the real thing...
When to Apply for YC
So I found out recently about YC and have a great idea/product and want to apply.

It seems I've missed the S21 batch, so I should wait for W22? I also saw this article on early applications, (https://blog.ycombinator.com/apply-to-yc-on-your-schedule/), so will this apply to W22 as well.

I'm not particularly time constrained or anything so waiting a few months isn't a big deal, just trying to clarify.
I don't think you're using units that could allow anyone to detect whether it's caffeine quantity or bioavailability that's at play. It depends on how you dose your espresso and drip coffee. I don't drink espresso but I think people are dosing something like 20 grams per shot, whereas for pourover they're dosing 18 grams of water per gram of coffee. For a standard "coffee cup" (which is 5 ounces of water that results in 4 ounces of coffee = 148 g of brew water), you're using 8g of coffee. Where I'm going with this is if your portafilter takes 40g of coffee for a double shot espresso, that is more coffee than 32g of coffee you'd use to brew 4 "cups", so you're just drinking more coffee. But, standard cups are a dumb unit (my coffee mug holds 400mL of water), so it's possible you aren't using that, and the espresso has a better caffeinating effect for the same amount of caffeine. We can't know because the words and units are conflated in so many ways (there's a cup, which is a drinking vessel, there's the cooking cup which is like 230mL, and there's the coffee cup which is 148mL of water in to get 118mL of coffee out).

I'm not a stickler for metric vs. imperial (I use both), but "cup" is a terrible terrible unit that needs to die. Use grams for anything coffee-related.

I actually posted (and since then deleted) a question asking how does this differ from firecracker. I deleted the comment because this claims to be a hypervisor and firecracker depends on kvm so it's a different level playing field.

No, what you're asking for is exactly what screen and tmux were designed to do though. In the not too distant past many online services (frontend servers, databases, etc.) were basically just run out of tmux instances so different sysadmins could connect and monitor them, redeploy them, etc. It's a basic form of interactive process management which is what you're after.

I agree tmux especially can get pretty complex and frightful to learn. However just learn the basics of creating a session, exiting, and re-entering a session and you will be golden. Ignore all the fancy stuff like window splitting, layout, etc. until you need it.

edit: What you could do perhaps though is have a tool like GoTTY launch into your tmux session directly and attach to it instead of launching a plain bash or login shell. This way the less technical folks wouldn't have to remember how to use tmux. As far as they're concerned whenever they open the webpage they connect back to the running process.
"Ownership" is an "ideal". I'm talking about material conditions. If the material conditions of a few mega corporations owning the means of production are identical to the material conditions that are said to result from the workers owning the means of production, then what is the difference?
Consciousness has multiple levels.
At a quantal level it is referred to as the nonphysical 3rd form of reality besides mass and energy, in relationship volumetrically based on the normalization of the electron characteristics.

Higher Consciousness.

Consciousness is that which draws distinctions to distinguish reality and is aware of itself.

There is that which is Distinguished, that From which it is distinguished, and the Consciousness that distinguishes. This is Perceptual, Conceptual, and Existential, and uses the variables of Intent (Atomic stability, organic life and conscious awareness), Content(Mass of subatomic/atomic/universe, Energy (photonic electric magnetic) and Consciousness (Individual Group and Cosmic) and Extent (Space Time and Consciousness-awareness)

There is ebook called Reality Begins with Consciousness from brainvoyage.com by authors Ed Close and Vernon Neppe that is interesting.

Yes, but the comment was a shallow dismissal. It arguably also broke this guideline too: "Don't be snarky."

That’s just an out-and-out argument for protectionism of all kinds. Local providers always want tariff and regulatory barriers against foreign competition. That doesn’t mean it’s in the general interests of customers and the economy for them to get it. It’s just a tax on you to subsidise their jobs. Why shouldn’t they pay a tax to subsidise your job?

It is more complex even than that though. Where do local e-commerce suppliers get a lot of their wares from? In a lot of cases that’s China. Why should they get to do that with no tariffs, but if you do it you get hit by tariffs? Barriers like that often end up hurting everyone.
From what I understand Amazon is trying to build a low-bandwidth network for roaming devices (similar to AirTags or Lime scooters). It is more about coverage than actual bandwidth sharing.

Yup, Youtube Vanced (which not only blocks ads but sponsor segments too, while iOS can barely even block the ads in a browser) and proper Firefox are the main reasons I can't consider iOS.
Yeah, from its URL the website already looks sketchy, "medi lifestyle news"? People need to learn to recognise content farms when they see them...

Googling the first paragraph points me to other farms, with this Yahoo News article maybe being the original source, although it's also sourced from some random Indian media site called ANI:

> Doesn’t self-hosting also have privacy downsides, being that all the hardware is tied to you?

Sure. But I'm not worried about someone who has an actual warrant for ME getting at stuff.

What I want to stop is some random law enforcement idiot from Dipshitsville, Texas, from sending an electronic request to Google for "every email with the word "abortion" and "protest" in it" who promptly turns over all my email.

If you want my email, you're gonna have to get up off your chair, file a warrant with somebody's name on it in front of a judge, crossfile in some different legal jurisdictions, and have someone come seize my machines.

That will stop most everybody short of NSA.

If your threat is the NSA, you're screwed anyway. If they can't get at your email legitimately, they'll just fabricate the evidence they need against you.
I hate the lawsuit in the first place because nutrition information is printed on the back of every single bottle for exactly this reason and any actually concerned consumer (any reasonable thinking consumer) will simply look at the nutrition label when making purchase decisions. It was marketed as vitamin water because it does focus on providing additional vitamins. So what do we call it? Vitamin Sugar water? This drink has vitamins but please don't drink it persistently or you’ll develop type2 diabetes water? Relatively healthier than Coke but not as “healthy” as diet coke with added vitamins water? Does “smart water” make your smarter? Also most vitamins in dry form are mixed with 2-8 grams of sugar. Should those be renamed?

The real tragedy is people are woefully undereducated on the damage that over consumption of carbohydrates and sugars does to your body. So even when they do look at the label and see 13 grams of sugar per serving and 2.5 servings per bottle (the comparable bottle of Coke has 55g sugars so you don't have to search it) they’re helpless. And that seems, as far as I can glean, to be a giant corpo-political conspiracy because we had a lot of grains and corn syrup in the US and needed to make people believe it was okay to consume it all despite conflicting science. “A healthy (carbohydrate filled) breakfast (of Cheerios) is good for the heart kids.” So if anyone is to blame it’s essentially ourselves for letting capitalists control the narrative around what goes into a healthy diet and lacking the political wherewithal to develop dietary recommendations that are based in science and not big cereal marketing. There it is: advertising.
I've actually had good experience just tossing a raw Jupyter notebook up on the screen and talking through it. Even with senior managers and marketeers in the audience. Maybe a couple of things are happening:

1. The novelty of it for most of the audience catches their attention.

2. It creates a feeling of participation rather than passive observation, especially if they ask a question and I answer it by modifying a cell and re-running it.

3. There's an implied sense of immediacy: The information is so new and cool that I didn't have time to make slides.

Contributor here! (Only one PR but still!) At Automattic we use GoTTY to allow customers to run subcommands of the WordPress CLI on their web container in their browser. Having them connect via SSH would have been much harder due to things like keys and routing. With GoTTY we can use our existing web-based auth and routing systems. The support burden is extremely low compared to ssh.
Oh hard no.

I feel Linux distros have this problem solved.

1. Only distribute Free/Open Source software.

2. Only distribute software that somebody is there to package.

3. Allow the users to install other software and shoot themselves in the feet if they so desire.
My high school experience is specifically one of the reasons I didn’t have kids. I wasn’t going to subject anyone to the shit I experienced in high school.
They apparently were much worse in the 1970s and 1980s. For most people I know it was significantly better by the mid 90s. And by all reports, it’s much better now.

But yeah, the movie tropes were really a thing.
Not to be confused with the painkiller Novamin (Metamizole).
There is no theoretical limitation on the ability to cross-compile between architectures. There may be bugs in individual compilers or mistakes made in configuring them, but those sorts of problems are solvable.

However, how often do you locally compile the binary you deploy? Every company for which I've worked has delegated that activity to a build server.
I stock up on it (and Eat-Mores) when I visit Vancouver, but it's not magical and won't fix a bad habit of not brushing very often.

The NSA doesn’t need evidence; you must have them confused with the FBI.
No one posts recipes to Hacker News, though. They post articles which are supposed to gratify intellectual curiosity. That implies an interest by the reader in taking the journey, not in reaching the destination as quickly as possible.
No they don’t all have it. Stannous fluoride is different than whatever the regular fluoride is. I don’t know the details, I just know my dental hygienist recommended I try it, and it actually helped, which I wasn’t expecting.
>This is where I think the traditional Linux package maintainer shines, protecting the user from malicious software. If a package-maintainer (generally independent from the developer) packages software for a Linux distro, the package-maintainer can drop harmful updates. If instead we give the developers free-reign to push updates without user consent, the developers can and will sell out to the highest bidder

Sounds good in theory but that hasn't been battle tested in a mass product used by non-tech savvy people like Chrome extensions that are heavily targeted. On the other hand there have been breaches even in the packaging landscape.
Maybe? Everything I said about this aspect is subjective.
It’s better to give full effort half the day and then be done.

I'm curious to hear thoughts from others on their personal definition of 'done' for a given 'day'. I've felt 'done' plenty of times, but dared not stray too far into enjoying it because I usually (almost always) get pinged for something.

Coming soon to a smart-tv/oven/toaster/baby-monitor/speaker/etc near you: silent data exfiltration from your unconnected devices as long as you live a few hundred feet from an Amazon or Xfinity or w.e internet connected device. Oh, and the radio? It's integrated with the SoC now.
Yeah, this just obviously correct. Sure, maybe there is some other biological factor that accounts for some of the increased rates of depression.

But it's an amazingly safe bet that the main factor is the part where we treat people poorly and openly classify them as a bad person. This seems pretty simple.

Until the had too much of an effect on my health I medicated myself into a morning person sleep schedule. I felt worse physically, just low key bad all the time, but I miss it so much. Getting treated that much better, with absolute benefit of the doubt given to me regarding everything I did, instead of the complete opposite, was really great.
I had to suffer through one as well. They have me the max number of shots after being on antibiotics and the pain was still unbelievable. Worst part… the dentist messed up and the whole root canal was for nothing.
They have actually looked for black holes of many sizes and have ruled out most of the range. It might still be possible, though improbable because they looked very hard for black holes.
I have a friend who needed a major extraction at the panicky start of COVID, in Australia. The dentists weren't allowed to use drills. I'm not sure why but something to do with aerosolizing.

It turns out the things dentists use when they're not allowed to use drills are chisels.
I trained my junk mail filter to automatically mark as junk anything with "unsubscribe" at the bottom of an email. As long as this is used to make subscribing to digital garbage only, I'm fine with it.

I know what you mean, the red scare is very deep in the US. It’s certainly funny that many seem to think unions are communism without actually knowing what either is or what the actual connection between them is. My tongue was in the vicinity of my cheek when I wrote the above comment.
Talk to some teachers who've been around for a while, and they'll give you an ear-full about how much middle school sucks. Something happens to kids around 6th grade, probably to do with starting to value peer-approval over authority-approval, and they start getting wilder. The work gets harder. Class-switching may start that early, depending on the school. Puberty. Kids from several elementary schools are thrown in with one another, in an abruptly-much-larger class with tons of strangers. A bunch of the kids develop mental health issues. A bunch start hurting themselves or get suicidal, and attempts may be made, some with, uh, "success". Drug use begins to enter the picture. All forms of bullying, including the "mean girl" type, get way worse in a hurry. It is obviously hell for the kids.

There's a consistent and widely-observed school performance dip in about 6-8th grade. I have a feeling our usual structure for schools for those age ranges, in the US at least, is in some way fundamentally and seriously wrong.
It isn’t giving them access to your connection it simply uses a small amount of bandwidth to connect to amazons servers.
I can't speak for every (or most, or even some) case of bullying. But keep in mind when someone says "I was bullied and the teachers did nothing" they are saying that from the memory of a 10 - 17 year old with little to no insight of what was happening from the perspective of the adults.

There are a million things that could result in a student bullying other kids. Are their parents drug addicts? Alive? Are they living out of their car? Does the bully go to bed hungry because the only time he gets meals is from school? Is the bully depressed and cutting themselves? Is the bully a drug addict? Is the bully working a night job so he can help his family pay rent?

None of these are things you can (legally) tell the target of their bullying and should be dealt with in ways other than "significant punishment". So from the perspective of the bullied, it looks like nothing is being done. But in the background, there are probably several adults working to remediate the situation.

Also, there probably aren't enough counselors/admins and your bully just isn't high enough on the bully-list to be dealt with (ie, that kid that is hitting people in the face with chairs needs to be dealt with before the kid that calls other kids names... and there are still 10 unfilled positions at the school).

Or the staff doesn't have the right training.

Or maybe the bully is just an a-hole.

Or the bully is a [rich|important|litigious] person's kid.
