"Tory" is just a colloquial term for "member or supporter of the Conservative party". It started out as an insult a couple of centuries ago, but has long since lost that association.

The Telegraph didn't just endorse Boris Johnson - he worked for the paper back in the 1990s, and after resigning his position as Foreign Secretary in 2018, he wrote regular columns for them.

Scared if it's used to impersonate influential people and spread misinformation, but cool when used in media. It's a difficult one.

Mind you, impersonating influential people in a convincing fashion is / has been a thing for a while now. I'm thinking of Forrest Gump hanging out with the president and the like.

I don't understand why IBM doesn't just pare all of their assets back to mainframe and just own who they are. They are or already have ruined Red Hat and have a worst in class professional services business. They're good at the mainframe and should just keep updating it and following it up w/their weird marketing.

That happened 150 years ago. Today, “Tory” is another name for a member of the Conservative Party.

One of the reasons that the statistical oddity of Jeanne Calumet as an outlier may not mean much is that maybe the main reason she doesn't have much competition is simply that there aren't many alleged super-centenarians with good documentation. There may well be quite a few other people who lived to 120+ but they can't prove it and so nobody talks about them. I know of a woman in my town in rural Brazil who claimed to be 124 before she died, but she had no documentation and here even today there are quite a few people without birth certificates!

Now that people over 110 were all born in the 20th century more and more actually can be verified, so the gap is beginning to close. A lot more people seem to be living into their 110s, but it's really hard to say how much of that is due to people's better health and better health care for the very aged, and how much is simply due to the increased verifiability.

Thanks for the always useful reminder. The plan is indeed to work outside the game industry itself, with an eye in part to reducing the chance of this being an issue. Also so my hourly rate can be a solid double what it would be in AAA, ha

I will also add that I am always delighted to violate contract terms that impinge on my personal creative and commercial agency to the extent I can get away with. I am not about to let myself feel bound by something I had to sign in order to eat, except insofar as is prudent and serves my interests

That said, I do also think these noncompete/IP clauses can be reasonable sometimes. I wouldn't work on a commercial indie match 2 game while employed by a AAA match 3 developer
They do, but the F-150 Lightning is going to challenge that. Right now there are very few serious competitors in the EV space, but it's clear that Ford is now taking EVs very seriously. It seems like Volkwagen is doing the same, though their cars aren't as popular in the American market.

> Whatever Medium's needs are for putting images and the written word on the screen were satisfied a decade+ ago. The fact that that Medium article doesn't work is a consequence of how web developers have normalized the practice of passing the blame for their failures and lack of competence on to the browsers and browser makers by extension.

The problem of displaying images and text on the web was solved in the first [EDIT: an early] HTML spec in the mid 90s. Yet web sites still manage to screw it up and make it unnecessarily dependent on JavaScript. I always thought the web would be a lot more pleasant if web "developers" would just stop programming for a bit and learn a little HTML.
Any hobby falls to the same criticism.

This is unnecessary regulation and not a good idea. Would that also apply to runtimes, interpreters and compilers?

Whoa, this kind of impressed me (linked from the blog post) https://bughunters.google.com/about/patch-rewards

Payouts for security-positive improvements to security-critical OSS projects:

* $20,000 for setting up continuous fuzzing with OSS-Fuzz

* $10,000 for high-impact improvements that prevent major classes of vulnerabilities

but the low end of the scale is kind of neat too:

* "$1,337 for submissions of modest complexity, or for ones that offer fairly speculative gains."

* "$500 our "one-liner special" for smaller improvements that still have a merit from the security standpoint."

... and you can qualify for these even if your day job is working on one of these OSS projects!

Also https://reneweconomy.com.au/inverters-are-solving-grid-issue... ("Inverters are solving grid issues at fraction of cost of spinning machines")

> The operators of four large scale solar farms in north Queensland have found that “tuning” their inverter settings has enabled them to solve “system strength” issues at a fraction of the cost of the current default mechanism – spinning machines.

> Ian Christmas, head of engineering at Edify Enegy, told a Clean Energy Council large scale solar forum last week that the inverter tuning at four key solar farms – Whitsunday, Daydream, Hayman, and Hamilton – would address recently declared system strength issues in that part of the grid at one twenty-fifth of the cost of installing a synchronous condenser.

> He also said it could be done in a fraction of the time – around four months compared to fourteen months or longer for the alternative. “It’s significant enough (in terms of price and time) that it is a no brainer,” Christmas said.

> That a cheaper solution has been found for system strength is significant, because it highlights how new technologies are proving that they can provide many of the services previously thought only possible through spinning machines, such as those used in coal, gas and hydro plants.
I can't say I've made a study of the New York Times specifically. But there was definitely a period in the mid-2000s when it was trendy to play up the individual personalities and work of journalists, analysts, etc. At some point, organizations came to realize this wasn't mostly doing the organization any favors and this sort of thing was mostly pulled back.
85 percent of Model 3 owners are "very satisfied" with the ownership experience, the most of all EV owners, in Norway. It's a good stat to go by since that market has the most EVs per capita in the world.

Also come from farmers. Horses. Hay costs are through the roof because drought and heat, vets are expensive, far and few between. Less demand than ever, and everything is expensive. Glad I'm not in it as much anymore. Would like to be out of it entirely but #family and "Local only" software work half the country away don't mix.

The others that operate the farm nowadays are absolutely swamped. Not enough money to do it full time so they work other full time jobs.
Beat me to it!

For those who don't know Jeremy Clarkson, he was one of the hosts of the UK's Top Gear (highly rated car show on BBC). Last year, he did a show about his farm in the Cotswolds. He's owned it for a while, but had a tenant farmer. That bloke retired, so Clarkson decided to run the farm himself (with help from a consultant and the existing farm staff).

Even with scripted bits and typical Clarkson silliness, it was plainly obvious it was a lot of hard work and long hours. All for a few hundred GBP profit at the end of the season. Yes, you read that correctly - the grain (the farm's primary output) only provided a tiny profit for all the work that went into it.

Communication Outside of the Home Through Social Media During Covid-19
I was giving the person above me the benefit of the doubt. I assume that was their argument, not mine. But i entertained the idea regardless.
Preindustrial farming involved a lot of downtime outside of the tropics. Essentially a few weeks a year involved 14+ hour days, but there simply wasn’t that much to do the rest of the year. It’s a common misconception that summer breaks where for farmers, but historically rurual areas actually had school in summer and winter with breaks in the spring and fall simply because that’s when there was a lot of work to get done.

For many in the US this meant a second occupation outside of farming, from preaching to making beer etc.
One year of user interviews and customer feedback
This. As a remote software engineer, I empathize with folks who haven’t optimized for their home to be their day-to-day. I couldn’t imagine spendings lockdown in an SF Apartment.

I spent lockdown in a 3k sq. foot home. I have a floating desk and a panasonic toughbook (CF-31), spend my days floating in my pool writing code. A similar QoL as before lockdown. Not everyone’s lockdown experience was the same.

Lockdown QoL was a mix of privilege and pre-lockdown decisions. Lots of folks couldn’t afford better conditions. Lots of folks optimized for living life outside their home.
I added some links to show videos/images of Mobian.

If you have any specific you find that would be useful, I am happy to add them as well.
No, I mean you hold your baby by the thighs, facing you, and let him balance his torso upright by flexing his abdominal/back muscles. At first, the baby will not have the coordination to stay upright very well, but actively stabilizing himself will train that balance. Because you are holding the thighs, the baby only has to stabilize one joint (the waist).

Then after a month or two of practice (a few minutes per day, nothing too serious here) you put your baby on your shoulders, holding his ankles, and he will be able to hold his torso up with his abdominal muscles for at least a few minutes at a time. Practice this for a few more weeks and you will be able to walk around town with the baby on your shoulders.
Wow. You could not have chosen a worse more condescending way to introduce your useless product.

What we have here is a glorified set of blockers that could be replaced with a couple of PAC files and a pihole/nextdns. The screen time stuff is builtin to iOS and Android.

If you really think you have a problem with some addiction, TALK TO A PSYCHOLOGIST. From my experience with cognitive behavioral therapy, it's usually the problems have nothing to do with your will-power or the phone/app/game/site itself. It could even have many other side effects on your life that you can't see like anger. There's absolutely nothing that can replace personal treatment with a psychologist. People invest money in many things and I think getting help from a real qualified psychologist rather than a faceless corporation and an "app" is probably the most important investment one can do, besides getting a place to live.

Don't fall for bullshit products like this one. They're usually done by scammers capitalizing on the pains and misfortune of others.
It's a lot easier to write "cries like a baby" or "screams in terror" than it is to actually do it on command, over and over again, for take after take.

And one can even imagine a program with emotional slider bars that lets a person listen to how a line sounds with different levels of inflection and then automatically inserts the appropriate markup for the settings the user selects.
Is it moral to let this guy kill himself this way if he insists on it?
I wanted to write something to the effect of me being happy that stuff like this would not fly in Germany because...

> Israeli settlers regularly steal Palestinian lands and homes.

> Israeli military regularly demolishes Palestinian homes.

This is another important discussion. However the recent east Jerusalem case has been about Jewish homes that was given to Arab families during the short Jordanian rule of the area, wasn't it?

> Israeli snipers kill Palestinian children with sniper rifles, sometimes while comrades are cheering.

I cannot support everything Israelis do. If this is correct and the kids where unarmed etc this is a war crime and should be punished as such.

> Israeli drones kill Palestinian children playing soccer on the beach.

Extremely sad case. Also possible reason for war crimes investigation, but:

It would be extremely ironic if that case gets prosecuted while the even worse guys who start a war from this area doesn't get prosecuted.

Israelis are to blame here for not being careful enough, "Palestinian leaders" for starting this.

> The Israeli army wants us to not believe our eyes when we see the destruction of civilian buildings [1].

No, they are quite clear that it is civilian buildings - only with significant presence of legitimate targets.

> They want us to pretend like its normal for snipers to cheer when they shoot unarmed civilians [2].

Link does not support your claim?

> They want us to pretend like its normal to fire missiles at children playing on the beach [3].

Again, link does not support your claim.

[...]

> I wonder, what is that makes you dehumanize Palestinians and present such a skewed picture of what happens to Palestinians?

I do not dehumanize them.

I feel terribly sorry for them.

They are suffering more than the Israelis now.

But the solution isn't to continue to ostracize the least unreasonable part of the conflict and turn a blind eye to the ones who keeps starting this "war" again and again.
They are talking about customers spinning up Linux instances on their existing (mostly not Linux) mainframes, and special software to allow SIMD calls from Tensorflow to work, etc. I think that making a remote call out to a commodity box is probably easier in most cases.
Uuuh, why? I can't imagine a reason why the deaged video would've improved the deep fake version. If anything, it should've reduced it's quality by adding incorrect data which could confuse the model.
You’re the 3rd person to mention being a farmer. Do we have a bunch of farmers on HN? That’s really interesting. What brings you here?
100% agree.

Unfortunately people are fickle animals and it'll be hard to persuade everyone to go back to the old regime.

This also doesn't bode well for the economy. It's a signal that shows we may be in for future lock downs and diminished spending.

This virus sucks.
There's plenty of people with IQ80 that can do fizzbuzz and solve linear equations.

IQ is not the metric that people think it is. You could be above average at doing mental math and finding ways to push data, yet be under average and spatial problems, language problems, etc..., and get an IQ of 75.

It's also not that good of a test and not that predictive of actual programming ability, even if you're not being dragged down by other tests.
The model only really works if there are 1 or 3 writers that you really want for whatever reason. But it doesn't really scale beyond that.
right, i'm not making a new claim. i'm saying, that's one of the few conclusions we can draw from this data. it doesn't say anything about e.g. catching covid at the hospital, whether existing data on health consequences and mortality is less relevant, or that "covid is mild / just a flu" as some people seem to be concluding.

The answer is war. Like it or not, Israel and Palestinian leadership have been and for now will continue to be in a state of war over the backs of their own constituents.

If you think you’ll find any war zone with pretty pictures and pink unicorns you’re dead wrong.

Look at Afghanistan. Look at Iraq. Look at Iran. Even Myanmar.

What you’re doing with your videos is biased emotional guilt. It’s disingenuous.

Mind you most of the countries I mentioned are fighting among one another. The Palestinians fight, threaten and kill one another as well as keep a perpetual state of moving the goal posts when it comes to any notion of an agreement. So yes, you see people who are sympathetic to the Israeli cause dehumanize them. Is it right? No. But opresee’s hands are exactly clean either. Not even when it comes to their own people.
In case of fire, seems like you only need to memorize the passwords for your email accounts. Everything else can be fixed with “reset your password” links.

I’ve sometimes wondered if that would be a useful security scheme. Using email as a de facto pw manager. Memorize your email pw. Use the password reset feature on your critical sites. It would be enormously inconvenient. But it would mean your passwords are never written down and never stored in a pw manager’s database.

Seems like that would make things more secure, but I’m probably overlooking something.
(Full disclosure: I'm the app developer)

I'm looking for beta testers for my new app Tinkerstellar, it is similar in concept to Apple’s own Swift Playgrounds, but for Python and computational science. Essentially, it’s a collection of interactive tutorials, where you can edit and run code examples straight away — no need to configure environments, download datasets, or rely on networking connection. I refer to these tutorials as labs, and the app is called Tinkerstellar — because you learn by tinkering with things!
> If you care about the web, and one would presume that web developers would care deeply about the web, Safari ought to be your best friend, regardless of which of Google's "standards" it doesn't implement.

It doesn't follow that you should support Safari blindly, without criticism, simply because they offer some competition.

It's reasonable to want competition to Chrome, but to believe that Safari is doing so very poorly.
I know this is a stupid comment, but looking at the site really made me appreciate how far north the UK actually is.
You can raise them well. Porn is not the issue, replacing reallife with porn is.
It's good news that bleaching is down and coverage is up, but that's generally going to be the case after a mass bleaching event if the whole reef hasn't died.
