Also, it can be a nice trick to take a fs-structure dump: list of all files on disk, with associated sizes, permissions, and md5 hash.

It should be much smaller (and faster) to take such a snapshot, but priceless if you ever suffer corruption for e.g identifying & verifying inodes, restoring permissions etc.

Also useful for identifying which files are vanilla (same as installed from package) so can be restored by other means (finding original package). For that reason, a dump of installed packages w/ version is also useful.
Hang yourself millennial subhuman.
Everyone is figuring degrees are a scam, so the university has to find new ways to feel important.
When fuel is so cheap that the capital expenditure is not worth the cost of the new jet.
Maybe. But the denser the population, the fewer vehicles there are per capita. Plus the midwest gets an immense amount of through traffic as it's impossible to get from one side of the US to the other without passing through here.

The problem isn't a lack of rapid charging stations in rural towns since long-distance travel will almost always involve passing through major urban centers. The problem is even large cities in the midwest like Kansas City and St Louis have relatively few stations which come close to approaching the convenience of a gas station, which makes long-distance travel frustrating.
Great tip! Surprisingly awkward to do, but well worth it.
I would say it sounds a lot like social studies. But with those there is at least some scientific rigor (I hope).

Journalists often just spin speculation based on carefully selected theories into a narrative, put it into long form, sprinkle it with some writing skills, and sell it as profound. And 'The Atlantic' is especially guilty of that (according to my experience). And they're guilty of it with this one once more (imo).

The Atlantic: Pseudo-profound nonsense targeted at elites.
How many resources does the university have to do so effectively? Anyway, i am confident that their teenaged student body will prove far more savvy than any moderator. I predict circles will be run around them until they quietly retreat in defeat. That's my cynical take on this.
Exactly. You have to wonder if this is what's responsible for cancel culture. Issues being called out that have only become an issue recently. It could explain how it's out of control it has become.
Based on reading just the abstract so far, it seems to me the event-based application of this algorithm makes absolute sense. Temporal importance can be effectively characterized in memristors. At the risk of making a comparison similar to that of Andrew Ng's a decade ago, I think this approach paired with something like a ReRAM crossbar is quite an effective rough analogue to the voltage potentials across a group of neurons in the brain.

I applaud this team's efforts. A real breakthrough.
My understanding is that it's still not as good as Vim's builtin undo though. Vim has a persistent undo tree that consistently works and doesn't confuse users. AFAIK the best attempt at it in Emacs is the undotree package, but it unfortunately has a reputation of being unreliable.
Outside of the US context, but antisemitism on the left (and right) is reasonably common in France.

One report explained, "For a particular left, anti-Semitism is of an economic nature. The Jew is no longer the murderer of Christ, nor the representative of an inferior race, but the sovereign banker, businessmen. In pro-Palestinian demonstrations, banners bearing the inscription "Gaza the new Shoah" do not bother the far-left leaders present. The discourse of the far left is simplistic: Israel is a colonialist state and therefore a state where apartheid reigns and Zionism is a form of colonialism, colonialism is racism and Jews are racist and are like Nazis.” (PDF: https://www.ohchr.org/Documents/Issues/Religion/Submissions/...)

Luckily, nowadays they pretty much got rid of their fundamentalist/leftwing arm. They kinda turned "conservative", but in a positive sense.

In my opinion, them being a possible choice for conservative voters keeps our conservative party from doing too much rightwing crap, as they will know they'll loose voters to the Greens. We'll see how stuff goes in September (national elections). Under the hood, there's still lots of rightwing tendencies in our conservative party, unfortunately.
One thing I wished they wouldn't do:

> Deepnote is completely free.

That's simply not true. The trial plan is completely free. Same as a gazillion other services. By all means, they should charge for their services and get rich, but Deepnote is not completely free.
How many of these people make comments about Hamas' rocket launches targeting civilians in Israel, or their use of Palestinian civilians as forced human shields? There may be "a lot of blame on each side to share" in this particular conflict, but it's hard not to suspect anti-Semitism when some people consistently focus the blame on one side even as they pretend to be "neutral" and "fair".

I never said it was inaccurate, I said it was terrible. You can't look down your nose at people--even accurately--and expect them to trust you with their health decisions.

I explained it in a comment up thread, but the techniques to push things on people via social proof and whatnot smack of manipulation and people are rightfully suspect of that. Right now, half the anti-vaxxers or otherwise hesitant spend their time pointing out all the people encouraging them to vaxx as they're suspect of their motives.

You can certainly get some of the people some of the time, but I don't think this is a stable foundation. It doesn't help that accuracy hasn't always been the first goal. I don't think you can fully hide or sideline the confusion and when it comes out, it just create mistrust.

So you're right that this is about trust, but... manipulation doesn't lead to long term trust. If you read How to Win Friends and Influence People nowadays, you can see the stereotype of a smarmy old-timey salesman in it. A lot of the techniques there are burnt out and the very first chapter is basically a long-winded attempt to use social proof on you the reader that this book is awesome.

Now it is a very insightful book, I won't say otherwise, but you can also see that some of this stuff doesn't hold up over time, especially when it's getting misused.
Nigeria's Gokada launched a Super App as it crosses key milestone
I don't think that's so weird. An omnipotent entity controls the rules of reality. It could construct a universe in which contradictory things are true, or whatever it wanted. This is a bit like the puddle assuming the world was made for it because it fits so well into it - we take the rules of our reality for granted but that need not be the case in this thought experiment.
That's amazing. I picked the country Chad and I see no trends at all! With word and account blocking, I get good control over what I see, even in the official Twitter app. (A good number of the control methods, like disabling like numbers, are only available via browser extension.)
I think it's an interesting idea, worth chasing for a while, at least. I would, however, like to see more than 2 headlines per page. (i.e. I found the large-blocks annoying in that I couldn't get a decent overview quickly.) It would imho be a virtue to go for a more minimalist styling, like HN itself does. Lots of luck (really!) with the project; I do think curation is one of the ways we can all make the Internet an interesting place again.
Please just stay away from crypto entirely, you douchebag.
> Some of it is inequality, but some of it is willful diversity. There is a strong undercurrent that education is bad - a counterculture of ignorance.

This is, of course, self-fulfilling. In a society where education is poor, people will extrapolate from their own experience to conclude that all education is equally poor.

Source: grew up in the rural South, attending public school, surrounded by people who (correctly) viewed their education as nearly useless.
> What are people expecting?

A safe experience. There is always risk involved but floating things are a solved problem.

> They're 75yo vehicles who's capacity and seaworthiness were defined relative to very different cultural norms regarding safety and a national emergency that necessitated acceptance of some additional risk.

Duck boats are antiquated military vehicles which are modified by their owners via cutting them in half and extending them. One owner did the work himself with little to no experience in that area with zero engineering oversight. Basically the guy winged it and people died.
Even a duopoly can turn lopsided if one sucks more than the other.
>If you really need this problem solve I might know someone willing to do paid consulting on it.

If you really need education in math and how to properly do trigonometry I will help you solve this problem for free. Just ask me questions. I'm super nice and won't go around fraudulently espousing an expertise in math and demanding people pay me to solve trivial math problems.

Frankly you are not even qualified to solve the problem yourself or give me a recommendation.

Especially when this problem is basically impossible to solve. I'll give you 10 thousand dollars if you can give me a quaternion that doesn't have multiple yprs here on HN. Literally, give me your venmo.

>Nope. The only thing you need to specify is the order the YPR angles are applied (that more a convention than an assumption). In SolveSpace the assembly constraints would effectively encode the order of application.

The term "yaw pitch roll" ALREADY has the order of the Euler angles applied. Let me tell you that order, it's: yaw, pitch and then roll.

Ypr is different from straight up Euler angles in that ypr has order fixed; hence the term "ypr"

With the order of angles fixed you still get multiple answers for a single quaternion. Why don't you try it in 3D space in your own head. Given A rotational orientation in 3D, find at least two yprs needed to arrive there.

Here maybe this will help you: a ypr of (0,0,0) is the same as a ypr of (180, 180, 180). These two yprs can only be represented by a single quat. Think about it. Given only a quat you cannot determine which ypr was used by the physical gimbal to realize this orientation. For solve space to know it must be making assumptions or holding onto information outside of the quat.

There free education for you and I didn't even ask you for a dime.
Yes. Browsers and protocols have changed, and a lot of past performance best-practices have become actively harmful for performance.

A couple of related techniques are also useless: domain sharding and cookieless domains. HTTP/2 multiplexing and header compression made them obsolete, and now they're just an overhead for DNS+TLS, and often break HTTP/2 prioritization.

You should be careful with prefetch too. Thanks to preload scanners and HTTP/2 prioritization there are few situations where it is really beneficial. But there are many ways to screw it up and cause unnecessary or double downloads.
> One of the big warnings is that you should never take them if you took psychiatric medication last year or your family has a history of serious psychiatric problems.

By legalizing the drug, don’t we expect the user to make these sort of judgements themselves? Who deals with the consequences of the many poor judgments that will be made (besides the poor user themselves)?

I think decriminalization, not legalization + capitalism as has happened with Marijuana, is the right choice here.
I learned more than I ever needed to know about whaling when I decided to read an unabridged version of Moby Dick. The book goes: Plot -> 100 page guide on hunting, killing, and dismembering and processing a whale carcass -> Plot.
People outside of tech have no concept of what the algorithm does and in general take what’s on their feed at face value. How could they not? The news very often runs stories about tweets and Twitter trends as if they represent the real organic sentiments of the citizens.
When I was younger, the internet was a tool for discovery and creativity. We used creative names. Today, it is an extension of personality.

Because a bunch of Zionist supporters who happen to be Jews get assaulted is proof of antisemitism? That's weak. There was a non-Jewish supporter of the Zionist state who got assaulted recently for your information for his stance against the oppressed people of Palestine. Is that antisemitism?
Twitter launches Tomorrow, local weather news service
It's a delicate balance of not tieing inflammatory statements to your true persona, yet also profiting off of any fame that may arise from your public presence.

For the vast majority of people erring on the side of anonymity is the right choice. You can only go in the other direction once.
Devil's advocate though. Does that still work when you then overlay something like Windows 98 in KVM? A lot of the ancient software was (unfortunately) Windows centric
Depop really isn't a niche company. It's effectively instagram but the clothes are for sale. Companies relate to the consumers the same way they do with instagram influencers, product placement.
Hmmm, I'm also a moderate liberal and my main Twitter stream reflects that, it's the trending topics that skew right for me.

If you can call it "right", it's mostly invective, calls for resignation and skewed/unfounded criticisms of our Prime Minister.

I mean, there is plenty of real stuff to criticize but the criticisms are mostly unfounded instead.
If you embezzled millions at your last company, should I make you CEO?

Actually you might, if you were the dangerous driver, just not to very many others and it can't spread further than that.

And yes, that's a very good point about the risk for kids that's not often appreciated. That's one of the points I try to make people understand, along with the idea that vaccines aren't perfect (so you can't just immediately drop every precaution once vaxxed), etc.
They won't, they will outsource to some company running "machine learning" and then students will start getting suspended for other people with the same name doing things deemed inappropriate.
Interesting ... big tech oligarchs manipulating social media is ok, somebody hacking the trends algo is bad ...

Why do people always forget economics when expecting businesses to behave morally? Very simple: if the new efficiency technology is 1000000000x more expensive than maintaining the current fleet.
Vim and neovim do not have support for multiple cursors. The vis editor, is a vim-like editor that does support multiple cursors (and also structural regular expressions, if that's your thing).
Moving everything under a single domain makes no sense for the use-case of cross-organization sharing though. Domain as as the root identity on the web is just broken and there's no way to make it work.

mysharedhosting.com/customer1
mysharedhosting.com/customer2

Two separate identities. Is it even possible to let the browser know that they should be segmented? Nope.

customer1.mysharedhosting.com
customer2.mysharedhosting.com

How about this? No again, not without getting yourself on the suffix list which is just a hack.

mycompany.com
joinmycompany.com

Can you tell the browser that these are actually the same and shouldn't be segmented? Nope!
What do you constitute as rightwing crap, out of interest?
Suppose there are 100 seats in parliament. To gain political power, you need to win 51 seats. So in theory you could get (50+epsilon)% of the votes in each of 51 seats, and 0 votes in any of the other 49 seats and hold power, despite only getting ~25% of the overall vote (assuming the population is evenly distributed among the seats).

Actually you don't even need to get that many votes. Depending on the electoral system you might not need to win a majority of the votes in any constituency, you just need more votes than anyone else, which could be a very low percentage if the opposition is split enough ways.

The current governing party in the UK holds a comfortable majority of seats despite only winning 43% of the vote in the last election. And in fact, this was the highest vote share received by any party in decades. Labour in 1997 won more seats on a lower vote share.

> Weren't some of the sates basically only created to give a certain party the majority?

I've read that the reason Dakota Territory was split in two (North and South) upon statehood was mainly as a cynical ploy to get two extra senate seats for the favoured party.
Hi,

Thanks for the comment.

> I'd suggest tags so that one can click/search based on say, a particular programming language.

It's an email newsletter so there's no interactivity possible. Unless you mean just displaying relevant keywords and the user can do a 'find in page'? If so, then, yes, that makes sense.

> I found the title for each edition confusing. For example, "The Last CPU" - at first I thought the entire edition is related to it. Once I clicked through the url, I understood that it is one of the articles linked.

Noted. I'll consider changing the way I title the editions then.
Perhaps because it's in the process of becoming a triopoly as Chinese investment in airliner production ramps up?
When I'm dealing with people I actually know - which is nearly all of my social media use - I prefer to use my actual name just as I do when we interact outside of social media. Using as fake name with these people would be bizarre and confusing.

Even if I were to use a pseudonym, I would not pretend it afforded me any guarantee of anonymity anyway.
Not if you're using probabilistic data structures like Count-Min[0]. You don't care about the exact count. You just want an estimate with a certain probability. Such structures only support addition, not removal.

My own cynical take is that this will be a lot less about trying to monitor the social media postings of students as it is a way for the university to have a way to respond when, inevitably, a student posts something that gets whipped up into a media storm. In other words, they won’t go looking for students saying the ‘wrong’ thing, they’ll wait for someone to kick up a stink and then point to the policy as their reason for excluding/suspending/punishing the student.
It's sickening how standing against the suffering of the Palestinians is used to claim anti-semitism. "Gaza the new Shoah" is absolutely not antisemitic, it's plain fact.
Second rule of social media: never use the same pseudonym twice.
Excellent points... almost no hi-fi no matter how high end actually captures what instruments in the room sound like since instruments just don't act the same way.

The recordings themselves don't capture a lot of that information or have it mastered out, so the loudspeakers can never put it back in.

The soundboard of a piano or the top of an acoustic instrument for example just don't work like a loud speaker. Drums pack a ridiculous punch in the room that speakers rarely capture. Guitar amps do all kinds of strange things in the room due to purposely designed in imperfections that are often missing in the recordings.
Because fossil fuels are the best energy source, absolutely smashing the competition circa 1850 and still the top contender today.

I'm a fullstack dev with my biggest strengths on architecture, backend, etc. I've been freelancing a few years, really looking to transition to something more permanent and full-time. Tired of the hustle/bustle of freelancing. I'm interested in possible changes in career as well into product/project management, or working with blockchain, or more work with devops.
Depop is more similar to instagram than a resale site. It has influencers and a "for you" page.
San Francisco may have a harbor and bridges, but it's hard to drive right into the water. After 911 they added balusters to prevent vehicles from leaving the roads, so you would not be able to access the water near a bridge from a car. Just because you have water next to land does not mean you can actually drive off a road into the water. For that you need a boat ramp, and while there are a few (maybe 3-4) such ramps in San Francisco, you will find that using them is a lot less convenient than driving across a bridge and you will need to go far out of your way to do that.
True, and I'm no expert in planning but here's my thinking. Fuel can only get so cheap, but there's no limit to how expensive it can get. So while the capital expenditure will be high, the odds of fuel getting much more expensive down-the-line is almost certain, no?
Babe Ruth card sells for $6M
Same thing in Poland. Everyone always had an ID, now we have them with biometric info and RFID, which you can use by tapping it to your phone running an official app to log in to eGov portals. Very well executed in my humble opinion. I live in the States and when I show that to the locals, they cannot believe their eyes. eGov here is an absolute joke.
