I'd blanked lotus notes from my mind. As an ex Notes developer, you're bringing back horrible memories.
Because agricultural modernization universally requires at least an order of magnitude less labor, and society is then better served by those workers being in urban centers where they can work first in factories then transition to a service economy for the ones who'll work unskilled labor, and concentrate access to quality education for the ones that can contribute intellectually.

Those "ghost cities" that the media pearl clutched for a while there have for the most part been slowly filled in with previously agrarian workers making the urban transition.
One thing that stops me from fully migrating is the inability to transfer app purchases from the Play Store and the App Store from one account to another.

I have hundreds of dollars in app that I don't want to repurchase just because I'm changing my virtual mailbox.
Most things in front office use floats in my experience, e.g. derivative pricing, discounting, even compound interest. None of these things are going to be any better with integers or fixed-precision, but maybe harder to write and slower.
Fastmail is not for me because

a) it's expensive for multiple mailboxes (like even three or four mailboxes) and

b) it's right in the Five Eyes jurisdictions (which I try to avoid as much as I can)

but I do appreciate

a) Fastmail's work on JMAP and can't wait for it to become more widely deployed and

b) frank and straightforward responses (including for example in the threads on the Assistance and Access Bill in Australia)

It has been that way for a while. Fun fact: during WWII merchant marines got the short shift. The died at a much higher rate than soldiers and sailors and when they got back they were denied veterans benefits including the GI Bill.
>I think it is common for a child of his age to follow his parents' instructions.

True, but the parent should be making these decisions as a advocate for the child, and not looking at the child as a resource for their own benefit.

I get that this is not how it's always been done, but if you are lucky enough to live in a time and place where we don't need the labor of our direct children to survive (New Jersey 2021 counts IMO), then you have a duty to act (as best you can) as the child would if they had a fully developed sense of reason and self expression.

Personally, I would be thrilled if my father had supported

Nah, that's well within the normal range. This is the Federal Bureau of oops-that-terrorist-actually-was-an-informant-of-ours after all.

It really does seem like you all aren't aware of the (deserved) reputation of the FBI outside the US.
"Yes."

The best we've been able to do for capillary action so far has been through machining (e.g. fountainpen feeds) which has no real internal structure and will happily leak all over the place it touches something else, or sintering, which has a microstructure that takes forever to do its thing.
I have found it extremely strange, mostly of "anti-right" crowds, to never see an educational moment in anything. Its just "if you weren't exposed to our views by this point in your life and don't accept them uncritically then you are ostracized"

is that useful?
I just cancelled my prime this year after 15 years. I'm surprised this hasn't become a more visible trend. Amazon has no shortage of shitty practices, but it seems very few people actually care.
This is part 4 of a series. Have you looked at the 3 parts before?
The facial description did sound like quite a stretch. If anything, a more human face would be even more terrifying. These creatures are often described as very close to human but with savagely exaggerated features. An ape with a snout is more understandable than a monstrous face with large, staring eyes, huge mouth and deformed nose. Look at any traditional depiction of human like monsters and those are the features you’ll see.

Do you/did you have feedback loop accounts setup for all of them? Yahoo, for example, sends a notification to sys@ (or whatever email you tell them to) when someone marks one of our emails as spam or when it thinks we're sending bulk email. They also have sender support. They did want me to set up something where we used the same connection to send email to them. I forgot

My "blacklisted" email company is Zoho because they consistently greylisted and blocked our correspondence with clients and have no one to contact to resolve email issues for senders.
That's nice! Maybe i'll hack together a simple(r) price calculator to just spit out the adjusted prices for all App-Store regions based on the US price (for my use case). But for self hosted websites this is sweet!

Exactly, there will be only some personalities or brands that the public gathers around.

Yep. The end format is still APK. What is being dumped is the unnecessary libraries/APIs that are not relevant to the device that is receiving the APK.

This doesn't affect sideloading in the slightest.
He's neither the first person nor the last person to fail to live up to their own ideals. Jefferson was overly worried about the logistics, and he was definitely racist, but he also did believe that slavery was a moral abomination that should be abolished.
>> Those that will do anything for power have an advantage over others, ergo people at high level positions are disproportionately those types of people.

One thought is that we could try to fix that problem with some type of screening, but that would be another system to game or corrupt. Also, those kind of people (high ambition and drive) can be really useful in those positions so long as they don't go off the rails.
> There is no way my vote on a whole range of medical issues should have the same value as that of a medical professional, such as my wife.

Strongly disagree. Your wife should educate the voters around her on issues that she cares enough about to invest the time (or treasure) doing so. Those better-informed votes should all count equally.

It's a slippery slope to suggest that being well-versed in an area should grant extra power. Who determines who is well-informed? Hell of a conflict of interest.

Also, consider how wildly primitive (and often wrong) medicine was two centuries ago but how respected the practioners were at the time. Things are better today but the medical profession is not infallible.

Lastly, should business people get extra votes on economic policy and taxation?

Memorization skill entails having a structured storage space (i.e., Mind Palace) for the information you need to remember. Mind or a Memory Palace is a fundamental memory technique used by all World Memory Champions.

Mind Palaces consist of Loci - unique objects which serve as folders to encode, store and retrieve a set of specific information. In the mind palace technique (i.e., method of loci), well-known environments are composed of many unique Loci.

Hi Wolrah

I'm starting a new company where email connection to my user base is essential. From time to time I also need to sen all users certain notifications which looks kinda like marketing email but isn't.

Could you contact me as I would like to ask your opinion on the configuration that I'm trying to set up. I would also like to discuss your experiences.

If isn't too much, you can reach me by email at jari@itsellesi.fi.
> It's really weird for software engineers to judge something by its current state and not by its potential state.

No, we're not afraid of Copilot replacing us. The thought is ridiculous, anyway. If it actually worked, we would be enabled to work in higher abstractions. We'd end up in even higher demand because the output of a single engineer would be so great that even small businesses would be able to afford us.

Yes, we are afraid of Copilot making the entire industry worse, the same way that "low-code" and "no-code" solutions have enabled generations of novices to produce volumes of garbage that we eventually have to clean up.
when i was a grad student in an amyloid lab (2009-ish) we were already doubting the amyloid hypothesis. Not so much the PIs. It's kind of wierd to see these ideas finally catching hold today.

But when the grant money is coming in, you're gonna push your hypothesis hard.

That said, IMO we really don't know. I worked on figuring out how to make these experiments more reproducible. My paper is cited a TON, but whenever I peek into the field, people are still are using shitty techniques, even the papers citing me.... Feels like "you didn't read the paper, did you?".

I mean, fixed point and a specific type for currency (which also should include the denomination, while we are at it) are not rocket science. Spreadsheets get that right, at least.

If that isn't outright blatant sexism, I don't know what is.
It’s complicated because to sell things, influencers create their own content. The videos and photos they post to show off the products they’re touting, are still videos and photos. They still have to be high-quality and engaging pieces of content or folks will scroll past and not follow/subscribe/etc.

And they can’t just post ads all the time or people won’t watch. Even the most commercially-oriented influencer is posting original content on a schedule to keep their audience engaged, whether or not they’re fulfilling a sponsorship deal at that moment.

Consider that it’s a long-standing convention to call a company that makes traditional ads (print magazine, network TV, etc) a “creative agency.” “Creative” and “creator” are terms that have been associated with commercial influence for a long time, as the article notes.
What extraordinarily agonizing choices this could bring to parents, like

"We forecast that this egg will have a 9 point higher IQ but a 14% greater chance of Type 1 Diabetes. That egg will have a 14 point lower IQ but is 30% less likely to get the kind of coronary disease that your father died of."

At least Sophie's choice was simple. There's something to be said for making such decisions the old fashioned way, while overcome with lust.
For context, the speech was delivered on July 5, 1852. 169 years ago. Assuming the average age of the mother at birth of 25, this was 6-7 generations and a civil war ago. I hope that we have enough maturity to not behave as if the respective appalling conditions happened yesterday and as if there is a significant part of the contemporary USA population that is openly supporting slavery. With that being said, it is an excellent necessary speech in its historical context.
> It'll be F-Droid only for me.

Uh... bruh. They do exactly what you're dumping the play store for.
You do yourself, and intellectual curiosity, a great dis-service when you paint with strokes that broad.
Just the opposite. It's a very old privilege. And a ton of people have never had it.

Some people who have gotten used to that privilege are starting to lose it. That makes them pretty angry. The problem is that they're angry at the people who never had the privilege. And rather than trying to extend it to everybody, they're demanding that it continue to be extended just to them.

Turns out that in a lot of ways it's a privilege nobody should have. Some opinions are hurtful, and people don't want to associate with those who hold them. It's a hell of a privilege to ask for the ability to say absolutely anything you want -- even if it hurts other people -- without consequences to you.

So the people who got used to it are pretty grumpy. I suppose I understand that. But for a lot of people, their response is "Hi, welcome to my Tuesday, or any other day ending in 'y'".
> The golang one uses a word ("value") for a field name that's been a reserved word since SQL-1999. It will work in popular open source SQL databases, but I believe it would bomb in some servers if not delimited...which it is not.

In their defense they created the table with this column before invoking the autocomplete, so they sort of reap what the sow here.

It could at least auto-quote the column names to remove the ambiguity, but it's not a compiler, is it.
Which is absolutely what they're doing.

The first counterargument to this will be "sure just as soon as you give back all the things you have benefited from as a result of cheap energy and cheap plastics."
That's just the labor fees. The vans still need to be paid for and maintained, and they still run on fuel.
This particular police officer should unequivocally be fired and barred from any law enforcement work for the rest of their lives…

Corrupt and destructive individuals should just simply not be admitted into positions of authority. Any position where they can enact their hate and evil onto people, is a disgrace to all of us.
Show HN: zk – A note-taking tool in Rust based on the famous Zettelkasten method

You'd be amazed on what motivated individuals, who wont face much backlash and have a score to settle and a lot of collective free time can accomplish.

Whereas scientists would face backlash and some serious repercussions in their career if they falsely accused someone of something and had a collective witch hunt.
Problem - reaction - solution
If we're coming up with potential uses, I think they got the direction wrong.

Don't tell me what to do, tell me what not to do. "this line doesn't look like something that belongs in a code base", "this looks like a line of code that will be changed before the PR is merged". Etc.
Excel uses IEEE-754 floating point, so I don't get what you mean with the spreadsheet comment. It has formatting around this which rounds and adds currency symbols, but it's floating point you're working with.

Rounding error doesn't matter on these types of financial applications. It's the less glamorous accounting work that has to bother with that.

They're not rocket science, but they're unnecessary, and would still be off anyway. Try and calculate compound interest with your fixed point numbers.
Boeing 737 cargo plane crashed into the ocean off Hawaii
At some level though, this suggests that the only way to be safe if you're writing a program (outside of a Copilot context) is probably simply not to look at GitHub (or maybe Stack Overflow and other code sources) except for, perhaps, using properly attributed entire functions. If you take a couple lines of code and tweak it a bit are you now required to attach copyright attribution? IANAL, but I'm guessing not.
Sure, what could go wrong? Everything should be free...

Sheesh, folks, as Maggie Thatcher once supposedly said, the problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money.
They probably just accumulate the rounding errors into an account and write it off periodically without even realising why it happens.

I was just talking about this last night with my SO.

We both agreed that history will look back and see these companies being responsible for the destruction of humanity. I really hope that's not the case, however seems to be the course we're headed. Especially with the amount of people that _still_ think it's just not real or not a problem due to the years of "PR" (propaganda).
> I don’t get why engineers would think this is.

This claim that "AI" only means artificial general / human-equivalent intelligence completely ignores the long history of how that term has been used, by computer science researchers, for the last 70-odd years, to include everything from Shannon's maze-solving algorithms, to Prolog-y systems, to simple reinforcement learning, and so on.

https://web.archive.org/web/20070103222615/http://www.engagi...

It's true that there has been linguistic drift in the direction of the definition getting narrower (to the point where it's a joke that some people use 'AI' to mean whatever computers can't do _yet_). And you can have reasons to prefer your own very-narrow definition. But claiming that your own definition is the only valid one to the point that anyone using a wider definition (one that has a long etymological history, and which remains in widespread use) are "dumb" is... not how language works.
From Devereaux: "A nation... is an entity that is imagined to extend both into the past and into the future, recreating itself, generation to generation; it is through the common birth that the common culture and history are supposedly shared." "Attempting to find a common birth origin for even a slim majority of Americans is a hopeless case."

From Barrington: "Also, and more important, nations need not even be based on a certain ethnic identity. Thus, the words "shared cultural features" in the definition of nation above should not be read as "shared ethnic identity."

Very few European nation states fit Devereaux's concept of a nation. The Normans (Scandinavian), the Franks (Germanic), and the Galic-Romans (Romanized Celts) all make up a significant part of the historical French population. And yet, even though a majority of French citizens didn't even speak French until the 19th century (compare this against a 75-80% English literacy rate in the US at the same time), no one today would argue that France isn't a nation state.

Defectors nearly always parrot prevailing scare tactics of a society, regardless of the veracity of those statements. You can see that today with North Korean defectors. Is North Korea an awful country with mind boggling human rights violations? Absolutely. Are North Korean defectors heavily incentived to come up with increasingly out there stories, even stories that are contradicted by their previous stories because they're shunned by ROK society at large and have trouble finding other sources of income than selling tales to the media that won't be fact checked? Also true.
The political problem is there’s no constituency or patronage group here. Speaking again just from a political perspective, this is flushing money down the toilet. You’re helping everyone horizontally, not some group that will help you get re-elected or build up political capital you can use later.

As opposed to something like canceling student debt which is a more obvious patronage play for Democrats- college grads vote Dem and people with student debt skew younger (more Dems). Debt as a general category is too diffuse.

To be clear I’m not opposed but there’s not gonna be a political will to make it happen.
No you don't want to move to Singapore for that.
Your assertion is silly. The headline is fine, and this qualifies as news. By your logic, if a US Senator quits, it wouldn't be news because it's only 1% of US Senators?
