I wouldn't expect most students to be able to follow this, if they want to enjoy their youth.

The problem is the school system, and people with a patronising ideal of what the State or affiliated companies should be able to do.

More and more happy to be living in the EU where this kind of surveillance nonsense can't be implemented as easily as in other parts of the world, thanks to privacy laws.
If people are mentally mutilated, it is by having been led to believe there is something useful called "Object-oriented", or "Data-oriented", or "Functional", or what-have-you-oriented programming.

Carpenters don't learn "hammer-oriented" building, or "saw-oriented", "screwdriver-oriented", "chisel-oriented", or "glue-oriented". They learn to use hammers, saws, screwdrivers, chisels, and glue, and use them all at different times, sometimes one more than others. Machinists don't learn "lathe-oriented", "drill-oriented", "mold-oriented", or "welding-oriented" fabrication. They do all or any of them strictly according to what they are making, and what they are making it out of.

"This-" and "that-oriented" is a entirely a sales method used to package up coursework and seminars. It is as utterly stupid to design a whole language around one of them as it would be for a carpenter to try to run a screwdrivering business. A language is useful exactly to the degree that it enables building whatever you might be called upon to build.

That is not to say any generally useful language is equally good for any purpose. Wood is better for some products, metal for others. A metal violin would be weird, a wooden gun action would be stupid. But violins often have metal bits and guns often have wood stocks.
It took me three tries separated by years beginning in my late thirties. It is not an easy thing to do and I am not sure that it can be taught.

That being said, I will tell you what I did.

I started going to AA meetings. I went to 90 meetings in 90 days and I did my best to follow their advice. After two years or so of (at least) weekly meetings I cut back to more or less one meeting per month. Nowadays I only go to meetings if there is some kind of triggering event in my life.

I hope this helps.
Libblastrampoline: Choose your BLAS implementation at runtime
I have several offshoring projects under my belt and have been doing consulting for 14 years.

Where are those managers?
One of the big reasons is that mrna is also much easier to manufacture than proteins. If I wanted to, I could pay for a arbitrary mrna sequence delivered to be within the week. Its basically been commoditized.

Conversely, getting a protein at scale requires the engineering of an organism to synthesise the protein of interest. This results in increased delay in manufacture.
This seems to me no more than a bunch of justifications. I live in a region with -40°C winters and +40°C summers (that's the extremes, but we see them every year, and the averages are not far off). Most people drive without air conditioning in summer and with just enough heating in winter to make the air tolerable in several layers of heavy clothing. It's fine.
I lived next to a railway line, like it ran behind my back fence and it was a corner, so extremely screechy. I would constantly wake up to feeling like it had derailed right into my bedroom. Would not do again.
No, that's "the market", that's capitalism (computer parts anyway).

Electricity shortages haven't been caused by crypto, and neither is crypto the cause of widespread ransomware. It may be the currency in which ransoms are desired to be paid, but to say they're the cause is misleading.

You could well argue that the fact currency for which payment is demanded is proof of its use-case as a currency / transfer of value. Criminals and the porn industry are always the canaries in the coal mine for "new". That criminals are increasingly using it is evidence of it's success as opposed to evidence of its imminent demise.
The items I labelled "Factual" are things like "island" or "small" -- I was very careful about highlighting the possibly controversial parts of that sentence.

However, the funny thing is that there was no ideological flame war in response to the comment. Why? Because there was nothing there that anyone even disagrees with or find inflammatory.

In fact, the only reactions have been to your (in my opinion) overreaction.
Fully agree on the color issue. Most color schemes in any editor today look like rainbows, very distracting for day to day usage. I ended up building my own color scheme for vim using only 4 colors.
That’s one of the scariest potentials of higher CO2 concentrations in the atmosphere. Maybe it’s just a phase now but a significant reduction in clouds is actually a predicted outcome from increased heating.

It’s really not looking great.
I think you can safely assume it means it's good are preventing a non to minor reaction to the virus in 92% of the cases, and be close enough. That's rather meaningful. It's no reason to say "this article is useless"
If you are only interested in testing, then yes, I agree it's bullshit. But there is more going on with MBTI than just testing. There is a broad family of personality models based on Myers-Briggs and Jung, and they all loosely get called MBTI despite not being formally affiliated.

Most of the people using these models in practice aren't claiming that you can find your type after just taking a test. Most who are being honest about it (instead of trying to make a quick buck) will warn you that it can take years of introspection to figure out what are the biases that consistently lead you to shoot yourself in the foot in life.

Eg, have a look at some of the early stuff by Objective Personality (not the last year or two when they started getting more commercial.) Constant warnings about people mistyping themselves and the need to consider feedback from a wide variety of people and situations before making any conclusions about yourself.
Can you give me an idea on what the rates are?
Well, Hanja can also appear inline in otherwise Hangul texts. Vietnamese has a similar issue though their use of an extended Roman alphabet ended up in a slightly different place, Unicode-wise. I don't remember the decision but I believe it might have been at the request of some RoK people.

There might also be an issue if old Hanja-only texts need to be handled differently from Hanzi rendering/processing. That would not surprise me.

Still, I agree it seems pretty weird.
I wasn't fully able to tell if this was interpreted or compiled?

In any case, it looks neat, I think the intersection of static types and Lisps is a space that needs more experimentation with, so I'm happy to see that.

I hope eventually it gains more effects as well, with only Pure and IO, you can't do much of the cool things that effect systems bring.
You must use GDP PPP for Cuba. Cuba is not a market economy and is blockaded, nominal GDP is literally meaningless. This analysis has to provide services such as free housing and so on, which is why most don't give a good estimate.

Then you find 20-26k USD.
DONeRF: Towards Real-Time Rendering of Compact Neural Radiance Fields
The language has "unique" types, meaning they have their own semantic meaning apart from their structure; they get a unique hash (currently implemented by adding a random salt to the hash of the structure, though it might as well be a guid). So "unique" types and "structural" types.

Not that Europe ever had an issue with Russian gas deliveries, or Soviet ones back during the Cold War. Ever. Ukraine is different in that regard. And that has nothing to do with energy saving for stuff like heating.
With enough time that trait would show up by simple selective breeding too. GMO does it faster. (Of course so much faster that there is an argument that it's qualitatively not the same as good old breeding. And if someone comes up with some kind of killer trees that release anthrax in the spring that too counts as GMO too, but they are unlikely to be deterred by labeling requirements or GMO bans.)
And many are not and most are fake creative (making pretention of being creative but not being such if you look close and play).

For me it solved insomnia. I've tried various forms, the important part is the magnesium. It is taken up by bones so magnesium status in blood isn't the best metric to use here. Really you should pay attention to how you feel. Magnesium is depleted by stress as well. It's the only drug along w/ vit D that I take, and I don't take caffeine.
The Windows compatibility layer for OS/2 was one of the reasons why at the end of the day no one cared to create OS/2 applications, providing zero benefits to acquire it versus the real deal.

I find much of the responses here frustrating. I see a lot of “getting shocked is more dangerous”. What the hell? How is blindly driving a car through some urban area more dangerous than a small shock?

I see so many drivers not engaging with what is happening around them, just so they can send some image or read some celebrity gossip or whatever the fuck people are doing on their phones. I think even stabbing them in the arm with a pencil a few times whenever they touch their phone would be less dangerous than letting people continue like this.

I really don’t get it, in the 10+ years I’ve had my driver license I have never texted and driven. Not once. I HAVE had to brake for people on bikes, children, other cars, etc. As everyone has. I have also had drivers who were texting almost hit me while on foot because they weren’t looking up. It is just a matter of time for someone to get killed by you if you use your phone while driving: the street looks empty, you look down to text Bob “lol I know right” and boom, some child just popped out from behind of a moving car and you killed it. Wtf are people doing?

> Hate speech charges are a serious crime and often see lengthy court time.

I think this is part of the objection, too. The opposition to online hate speech laws seems to be reflective more of an increase in the scope of existing hate-speech laws, which I assume the parent thread would also oppose.

> If you cannot express your inconvenient opinion without being hateful towards or potentially harming a group of people, then that is a problem.

The issue here is that hate speech is a constantly moving target. We're okay with muzzling speech that we consider too far, until something that we don't consider too far gets muzzled as well.
Unfortunately, the exceptions only appear in names and proper nouns, which are where you generally want sorting the most.

They used to be neutral so it would not have been an issue in the past. Once they started dropping right-wing hate sites though, they pretty much said they do make moral/value judgements/decisions about who is allowed on their service. Therefore anyone they allow to use their service has de facto support of cloudflare.

So yes they lose my respect too.
We all have our anecdotes, so to try get a bit of distance on how well people deal with heat:

A lot of this is due to the unnecessary Cuba embargo and US aggression towards it. The US supports and has supported various dictatorships all over the world yet they pick unnecessarily on our neighbor to the south which offers 0 military threat to us.

Cloake suits my way of cooking!

Her "How to cook the perfect..." series is my go-to for classic dishes. She takes advice from multiple cooks and books, and distils her "perfect" recipe from there. That is how I cook; I read multiple recipes, and take the advice I like best. Cloake makes that easy.

She had a recipe for croque monsieur up recently; it's spot-on.

I remember those days. There was a lot of optimism and a feeling of being powerful, especially things like watching the early days of Anonymous vs Scientology. The internet was supposed to be the great enabler of the masses, and instead assholes like Zuckerberg co-opted it to line their own pockets by selling us wholesale to advertisers.

In any case, I also remember reading TFDeclaration a year or two after it came out, and I feel the same way about it now as I did then: it kinda makes me cringe. Declare independence all you want, but to paraphrase the Warden of Shawshank Prison: Your ass belongs to somebody.

No it isn't.

We're clearly of two very different minds, there's no way we're finding common ground on this, and I've already done the work of explaining to many people what TPM technology is, so I feel like I've done my part.
I was never a cyber anarchist—I always thought the Internet should be more like the open road of the 1950s than the Wild West of the 1850s. More Democratic libertarian than anarchist. I never imagined it would devolve into basically the feudalism of the 1350s, with dueling warlords not answerable to either the serfs or to any government.
Myers-Briggs is the single most useful mental model for personality types in existence, or that I know of at least (especially the modern versions like 16personalities.com).

I've heard a common complaint that "traits are a spectrum, not discrete categories." But often in biology, this is not exactly true, just like there are light brown leopards and black leopards but no dark brown leopards.

Don't "listen to the scientists" who say otherwise, those hopeless reductionists who obsess over what is true but useless rather than what is faulty but useful. Pareto said it right: "Give me the fruitful error any time, full of seeds, bursting with its own corrections. You can keep your sterile truth for yourself."

Of course it doesn't cover everyone well or every aspect; it's just one model of many, but it's useful and predictive.

As for zodiac signs...I can see some correlations popping out based on whether you're young for your grade or old for your grade (like Malcolm Gladwell talks about in Outliers), or perhaps when your parents decided to "mate" says something about them which says something about you, but yeah idk how deep it goes.

To which comment? If you mean the original comment (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27654110), that's quite wrong. The flamewar reactions were why I replied in the first place. Some of them are dead and/or collapsed now.
> And how is HP fucking their eufi up a Microsoft problem?

My claim was that there where computers where Linux only ran with Microsofts signature. I listed two systems (HP/Surface) where this is the case. Mainly because finding more is a pain, with support requests more likely to go off to nowhere instead of outright showing that no support for it exists.

One might make the case that Microsoft claimed it would require the ability to add alternative keys and conveniently failed to enforce that claim. If the goal was to blame Microsoft instead of just showing that Secure Boot can be easily used to lock users into one top down approved system.

The way most native English speakers (and writers) that I know, including myself, would sort such a set is to ignore the set (regexp) \W . The 'C' (blind bit sorting) Locale is more sensitive and a suitable default for simple machine focused environments.

E.G. of sorting how English humans tend to:

`A string with non-letters ignores the non-letters.

It sounded slightly negative in a way, but my point is, all this talk on here is nonsense. They want workers and there's a dearth of people that can write code at all. If you're smart enough to get your compsci degree at 40+, your success in the industry is guaranteed especially if you put in the hours. You have nothing to worry about, no consensus of nerds on HN can stop you. If you feel the CS degree didn't fully prepare you for any specific technology, I'd recommend Pluralsight. Most the instructor on there are great.

I feel like we're very sadly entering an era where many sovereign entities of the world claim dominion & rule over cyberspace, where they assert that their sovereignty means they decide what the rest of the world might access & do. This seems to be an ever intensifying battle against liberty, of local sovereignties against the individuals & entities of the world, of many states who think they can say or decide what is available online. Every state want's it's own right to govern & control & restrict what is available on the world's internetworked systems.

I do want to see the user given rights & powers. There's some pro-user activities which bring me hope, which I think companies need to accept. Globalized regulation that support the user is good. But there's a lot of other attempts to dictate terms to corporations, many of which benefit only the state or certain powers, which restrict speech or provide surveillance / anti-privacy measures. And here I think we need to allow the world to break. When anti-liberty is the issue, when it's what permissions governments have to spy & sneak in upon services, I feel like cyberspace needs more overt conflicts, more international affairs where entities say: no. No, I will not give you the access you've attempted to grant yourself. No I do not believe you have the sovereign right to get to this data. There are so many nations, so many of which would & do grant themselves powers, and cyberspace ought continue to route around these entities like the damage they are. The internet is for users[1].

First off I want to say that I agree with most of what you say, especially in your post below concerning tptacek's unfortunate single-word comment sans explication. It seems that current discourse has forgotten, or even possibly dismisses, the classic fallacies of argumentation. The result is discourse that devolves to simple labeling followed by social dismissal. In such a situation argumentation ceases to be useful and etiquette vanishes. Without etiquette there cannot be mutual respect, and learning and communication cease. But that was the entire purpose of argumentation!

But that said, I have another question that I hope you will indulge. When you said that:

>"...people like me, who do learn things quite a bit. ..."<

I had to nod: you obviously know and learn a great deal in any period of time. But I must ask: do you ever forget? In a way you remind me of Jorge Luis Borges' character Funes in the short story "Funes the Memorious". But of course you are not as limited as Funes (e.g., he is incapable of abstract thought). Also, to me, you seem to be studying so many different areas. What would happen if you focused on one, two or even a handful of projects? In any case, it seems that you are intellectually indefatigable.

yes, naming is hard. the gadget is not a garage door control but purely a mgarage door monitor. so the so called bypass is purely related to the monitor. the garage door control, if any, with its safety features remains completely stand alone.

that to me looks like an ok architecture from the safety pov, where the gadget behaves as an eye and maybe a finger pushing the control remote, so the safety is delegated to the garage control.

to state the obvious, I'm fully with you that there should be no override bypass inactive whatever on any kind of safety sensor, and the sensor should always be fail safe, i.e. if a sensor fails the motor stops, if an electronics compinent fails, the motor stops, if not locked shut it should be possible to manually completely reopen the door, etc.
