Bro lost me at "Only a finite number of events actually happened..."

Actually, he lost me earlier, cos "The admin didn't configure file purging" is something that did happen: the admin failed to take an action. The event happened even if the action didn't; the article confuses the two

It doesn't really matter tho since this article is really just a piece of advice on how to handle incident reports in a tactful and constructive manner, not a serious argument about causality
Interesting, when I read that line I thought the exact opposite. It sounds exactly line how I feel about the people around me.
Many are already putting in 40+ hours by day 4. I don't think that's part time at all.

Layer on on-call. Definitely not part time.

Anyone burnt out by Friday isn't delivering better results in the long term anyway, so why push so hard?

Unless the job highly correlates with a hobby or passion (and very few engineering jobs are a 1:1 fit for preferences), it just leads to burnout.
You have to be able to pick the part, orient it in the correct direction, and place it within 1/4 of the pad pitch, while taking into consideration variations in board placement, thickness, flexure of everything, and thermal expansion.

And avoid hitting components already on the board, of course.

As others have said, it's the vision thing. You have to have live cameras that feed into a controller to do collision avoidance, verify board placement, part placement, and a whole host of other issues.

3d printers assume a flat empty plane, and build upwards in layers. They're not very stiff, nor very accurate.

And of course, you also have to get the components you're going to place off of a roll of parts, for many types of parts and multiple rolls.

(Please bear in mind this is all the details I learned while observing others attempt this at a makerspace, it's not an exhaustive list of all the fun you'll encounter)

A Tesla model 3 is $39,990 right now on the website. I get that isn't quite "middle class affordable", but it's also not even close to "over $70,000"
Google Desktop.

But it was...

(Wait for it)

Discontinued.

Something about not being aligned with their cloud strategy IIRC.

It didn't OCR, but indexed emails, documents, visited pages by content, etc.
(And enriched your normal Google search results - if it had permission).

Was quite awesome.

It had a I-remember-something-else-that-day mode of search where you could find an email or doc from that day and then look for other items indexed on the same day/hour.
The taxi medallions might not be the example your looking for because passengers, other drivers, and residents also benefited from the positive externalities generated by limiting the number of cars circling around waiting for fares.

It’s not clear that the system generated a net negative externality at all, it could very well have been positive overall. Which if applied to SF property…
Breaking the rumination cycle is challenging. You are doing the right things. Changing venue, changing activity, changing posture are all good techniques.

For me, the two main strategies I have for putting a breakpoint in my day are cooking and woodworking.

Woodworking is a great hobby to try. You can do it in your kitchen — Festool et al let you work indoors dust free.

On the weekend you design projects, build them, solve problems and fit pieces together but on the weeknights you plane, sand, paint, oil, and shellac your work. It is mind numbingly relaxing and couldn’t be more different to work. It even requires a change of clothes which sounds like a small thing but is an important step to breaking the rumination cycle.
> As a student working on some theory papers, I wish this kind of thing would go in an Appendix somewhere.

For what it's worth, this kind of behavior isn't limited to theory papers. Papers presenting analysis and model development also generally only show the "finished" result, omitting most or all of the bad models, training models, development models, etc. that were used to get to the final result. Same thing with observational papers in astronomy and related fields. There's a lot of work done that builds the authors' confidence in the correctness of the result, but that doesn't lend itself to a clean "story" for the paper or perhaps also ends up being supportive but not necessary to demonstrate a result.

I remember being surprised as a student, to learn that papers aren't narrations of the path to a discovery, but rather a narrative to describe the idea in a compelling (and hopefully clear) fashion.
What do you mean? I was referring to faster response times to true positive shootings. I can see how it sometimes might indirectly lead to slower response times to other kinds of crime, but I imagine probably not violent crime, unless they have awful triaging.
OP is talking about e.g., Lucid, Rivian, etc., not Tesla -- which is definitely not a startup anymore.
Cigar and a cocktail. Enjoying the ritual of crafting something that is completely optional, unproductive, and personal. And slowing down to enjoy. Deep breaths. Concentrating on something rather analog.

It’s not everyone’s cup of tea. In fact, a good cup of tea can get a lot of the same results: ritual, pleasure, creation, and concentration.
Substack replies are paid? Hmm.

Thinking about this right now: annoying sure but why do you consider this pattern dark? I bet it reduces spam and trolling by orders of magnitude unlike say confusing cookie dialogs designed to make you surrender all your private info.

It is bizarre that our society now seems to reject entirely the concept of standards. If you scream at people like a crazy person then you can't go to college, full stop. Sorry, you're severely disabled and you need help you don't belong in college. Colleges are happy to collect the government subsidized tuition I guess.
When's the last time you drove more than 300 miles in a day?

I drove from Sacramento to Denver in a model 3, no big deal, we averaged 200 miles per stop, and often I could often stop a bit short, or a bit long depending on random preferences. Do you often drive 6 hours without a bathroom or food break?

Our average stop was between 20 and 30 minutes, when the battery is low it charges at 550 miles an hour or so, and we often just need 200 or so. That way we stop every 3 hours to stretch our legs, let the dog go potty, and let anyone hungry get a snack.

Sure, maybe sometimes we would have left 10 minutes sooner. But then again in the last year I've gone to a gas station zero times, taken my car in for an oil change zero times, had zero issues with spark plugs, timing chains, head gaskets, etc. I very rarely drive more than 300 miles a day, so just waking up in the morning to a full car is quite a convenience. Recently I was a bit worried about range, drove to the top of a 14,000+ mountain and was at 51% at the top, after starting with 90% (the Tesla recommended maximum for normal daily driving). I got home with 72%, which I found pretty amazing, the wonders of regenerative braking.

So I'd rank an EV for normal usage (commuting less than 300 miles a day) SIGNIFICANTLY more convenient than a gas car.
It is hard to speak about the exploits we don’t know about, but for the ones we do: There are vastly more exploits on Android, evidenced by for no other reason than because handset manufacturers refuse to upgrade.
Have you talked to your professor about it at all? That is your first avenue. Had to do this multiple times in my degree, simply because some group mates are shitty.
Hi, person responsible for the teams that do this at Coalition! Anytime you get a quote from us, we scan all your domains, subdomains and ip addresses. We hit the main ports that might have services running we know are dangerous and your quote might come back contingent on certain actions, for example: if you have Admin panels exposed to the internet we will require that you put them behind a VPN. We give you a PDF that describes all our findings and how we did the association with your org. If you become a policyholder we offer perimeter scanning and notify you when we find weird stuff and make security experts available at no cost to help you fix things! You can read more about it here https://www.coalitioninc.com/blog/analyzing-policyholders-te... though what we do at underwriting time has substantially evolved since.

Why New York is so unbearable that 8 million people bear it and millions more visit it. Clearly no one actually likes more housing or more stuff.
Only 1700 miles here (Portland<->Yellowstone). And straight up: this was the most relaxing and engaging road trip I've driven, anywhere, in any car, since I got my license in 1990. Standing up after a leg driven by the AP is just magic: no stiffness, no soreness. It's no different than if I'd been sitting in an office chair.

No, check that. My office chair frankly isn't as comfortable as the car.
Yes, but that's not what the poster is talking about. The Pinephone is a comparatively conventional/mundane handset design. It sounds like they were longing for more 'out there'/experimental designs that apparently were using A64 several years ago.

I sure do love a good dose of survivor bias.
I wonder if it's as simple as a combo of: http (no s) is essentially going away anyway and they just don't feel like spending engineering effort on even verifying that it won't break anything.
They say 81 victims out of 97. You're overthinking it.

ETA: 81, not 80.

>he knew precisely where each victim would be located.

>He personally found 20. His team, he said, recovered 81 by the time the last member departed Surfside on July 11.

Even the freaking byline reads:

>The Israeli Defense Forces’ National Rescue Unit recovered 81 of the 97 victims from the Champlain Towers South condo collapse site in Surfside.
Some people believe their presence on the spectrum makes them superior to people who are not on the spectrum. They feel entitled to a social standing that lets them abuse others without consequence.

It’s supremacism but for neurodiversity.
Right now they have Fremont operating at capacity, and Shanghai still ramping. Austin and Berlin are under construction and the hope is they get the first vehicles out this year. All told, total capacity under construction represents something like a tripling of current production bandwidth.
Thank you for your input. I'll be more direct when issues arise and have a set of rules for conduct ready. Hopefuly you're right about repairing the relationship.
Yes - extremely rich metadata combined with robust search features.

For example: "I want to see all..."

- excel files

- that I myself have created (not downloaded)

- anywhere on my hard drive

- tagged with a particular project name

- containing a particular word inside the file

- sorted by "last opened" date

Then ideally you'd be able to save this search/filter/view for future use.

This isn't impossible to accomplish today, but it's so painful and slow that you're basically forced to fall back to folder hierarchies for organization.
That looks insane, in a good way.
Apple never came out with an iTunes Linux client? Wow!

There are multiple parts to the underwriting process (full disclosure I run the team that does data collection and security at Coalition where the op you're replying to works). Part of the data we collect is used for risk selection (do we want you on our book?) and then other piece is used for pricing and thats where technologies, providers and a lot of other things come in! Lmk if u have any questions!
that's a perfectly good reason too.
Two things:

1) False positives lead to under reaction. This is the "boy who cried wolf" issue.

2) Extra false positives put strains on resources, as they produce spurious false reports that must be dealt with in parallel with other requests.

Combine these two, and I'm dubious that shotspotter would actually make the police more responsive to real shootings.
There is evidence of decreasing memory with age, many brain function related diseases like Alzheimer higher risk for older people. Senility and memory loss are commonly related.

Also certain types of information is more easier learnt when you are younger like multiple languages. I believe there is research on learning pedagogies for senior citizens having different approaches than children factoring in the ability to learn quickly.

Most mathematicans and many other scientists achieve the peek before 40, while there are exceptions like Euler or gauss it is not common.

Even in tech you find a lot more younger workers than other more stable technical fields as the learning curve is recurring and steeper than in other fields

I wouldn't disagree there is more physical stamina required for tournaments, however I doubt it so difficult for players in their 40s/50s cannot manage it without loosing competitive advantage.
There would be no sites. There would be no web.
> I think this is giving them entirely too much credit. The NY Times own editor admitted their staff was partisan:

So what that they're partisan? It's a myth that a good journalist must be personally detached and disinterested, since that's frankly inhuman. They should strive to act that way in their work, but they're not going to be perfect at it, and they'll still have their personal opinions. It's one of those things to understand and correct for.

> No doubt some members of the media are still trying their best, but look how many of the best have left the media for Substack or other independent pursuits, because the climate in the big media organizations no longer permits the pursuit of truth over politics.

I haven't been following Substack, but the format only seems like a good fit for self-important pundit types and maybe few name-brand journalists that cover a few narrow but particularly popular topics. Honestly, IMHO, the op-ed section (where the former live) is the least valuable kind of journalism (but it's unfortunately the only kind of journalism a lot of people pay attention to).
> I would much prefer if the pruning was done on per file basis and not by pruning whole backup sets.

Then just don't prune! Unchanged files take no space. There's no reason you can't keep many months of daily backups, and set your prune to only do: --keep-within=365d

For those who aren't familiar with Borg, there is no such thing as a weekly backup, daily backup, monthly backup, etc. Every backup is a quick full backup. It's only the prune (which deletes old backups) option that gives you the choice of bracketing your backups into monthly/weekly/daily sets, so it'll save the last backup of each month for the last X months, the last backup of each week for X weeks, etc.
From how they're described here, PWAs sound like a phishing risk...?
pretty awesome but the prices for a 30x40 are 10x the cost of my own prints at that size on the same material.
Other industries handle this kind of thing with a layer of indirection: instead of laws from the state, the state imbues a professional body with certification power, and the body sets standards by consensus or whatever other process among their members. So if you're an architect, or lawyer, or tradesperson, or whatever, you have to do things in the manner prescribed or you lose your license.

I know this kind of thing is a lightening rod for a lot of software folks, but it does have the nice property that it's proactive; you don't have to wait around for the obviously-unsafe practice to blow up in someone's face before you can do something about it.

And no one wants to have to get licensed to write some crud app in NodeJS. But maybe these kinds of high-stakes modules related to encryption, security, and so on could be a place to start with it; if you're going to work in these areas, and offer your work to the public (for money or otherwise), then you either need to be licensed by the professional body, or clearly advertise in the header of each file that the work has not be overseen by a licensed professional.

That's the kind of arrangement that could do things like specify languages, methods, interfaces, and so on.
Thank you for your advice. I agree that group dynamics are most likely very hard and can be super frustrating for him, and maybe that causes his disruptive behaviour.
So true.

I have this uneasy reliance on Chrome for supporting PWA's properly since Mozilla lost interest.

It's a life/routine manager for people with horrible memories. Chrome stands alone in supporting web push notifications :S
Chevy already sells the bolt. Ford sells the Mach-e with the f150 not far behind. Vw and Volvo have several cars already available.

Set the optimization level (equivalent to the -O command line argument) for code in

Supported values are 0, 1, 2, and 3.

The effective optimization level is the minimum of that specified on the command line

Miami has many Israeli expats, this building specifically had many dual Israeli-American citizens and the family and friends of the victims called for the IDF to come help, the governor, and mayor ok-ed it so they came.

Many countries have disaster recovery teams specifically tasked with assisting in international catastrophes, the Israeli one happens to be a division of the IDF, probably for budgetary reasons.
This is an interesting point.

I think the difference here is that no car could be engineered to withstand an artillery shell, whereas we can imagine an iPhone not susceptable to this particular vulnerability (it already exists).

Perhaps one argument is that the space of _potential_ vulnerabilities in something as complex as an iPhone is so huge that it just isn't feasible to create one that can withstand all network-based attacks (in which the attacker hasn't obtained user consent, Apple's signing keys, etc)? However I'm not sure if I buy that argument, or not...
That doesn't exactly answer the question though on expectations. Is the OS stable? Are there apps that crash a lot? Should I be aware of any shortcomings that would hamper a normal phone experience?
> Apple dragged their feet in adding support for PWAs in Safari, and when they finally did, limited the capabilities of a PWA so that native-like app functionality wouldn’t be possible, like notifications or a home screen icon shortcut

Websites can get Home Screen shortcuts; this has been a thing since the original iPhone.
"Neural networks" aren't very similar to brains, so I would doubt it
Because the average first time driver is primed with approximately 15 years of training data from observation of not just driving deriving a complex physics model, object detection and identification system, spacial reasoning, natural language comprehensions, theory of mind able to predict behavior of other drivers based on subtle cues, and teen drivers are still awful at it as a rule with much higher accident rate.

Trying to build a neural net or set of neural nets that can do all of those jobs is a daunting task and no one has the time to train the artificial neural network for 15 years. that's why we don't have safe self driving cares yet.

as for the horse, well 50 millions of years of evolution on constantly refined genetic algorithm is hard to beat and that was on top of the evolution of the eohippus as a starting point
They could help very easily but not lobbing missiles purposefully targeted at civilians in an open air prison.
But, but, "self defense". They don't need to defend themselves if they don't first commit acts of aggression. So they can also stop oppressing the Palestinians and sue for peace. It is entirely in their power to do so. They are the only ones who call the shots.
A lot of the APIs that Safari doesn't support end up being attack vectors and/or useful tools for user fingerprinting. Personally, I use Safari as my browser on my Mac almost 100% of the time (the small fraction is because, thanks to T-Mobile, my Netflix DVD and streaming accounts have been separated and Netflix insists on sending a notification email if I log out and then log back in to the streaming account). On rare occasions I'll open Chrome for some other task and it kills my laptop battery.
I'd be surprised if the autos are much beyond low single digits (if that) in terms of share as global consumers of semiconductors. The global auto market produces a combined ~70 million vehicles annually vs >250 million PCs, >1.25 billion smartphones etc. with just about everything these days containing at least a microcontroller.

Sure, the semi shortage is a big deal to the auto industry, but the autos are almost rounding error to the semi industry.
Progressive is in quotes because that's what they call themselves. I have other names for them that are inappropriate for HN.

And progressivism is not for individual freedoms by definition. Far from it. Progressivism refers to the impulse to use government intervention as a means to achieve social ends. The temperance movement was part of the progressive movement in this country. As was the eugenics movement.

Progressivism does not have any unique claims to the fight for individual rights. Far from it. Progressivism was first used in contrast to 'constitutionalism', which was the philosophy of enlightenment individual rights as espoused by those who wrote the American constitution.

This is hardly controversial stuff. It's even in the Wikipedia article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Progressivism.

> In the United States, progressivism began as an intellectual rebellion against the political philosophy of Constitutionalism as expressed by John Locke and the founders of the American Republic, whereby the authority of government depends on observing limitations on its just powers.

The comment is from the world champion of 1850s . Being professional back then was considered equivalent to gambling. Professional sports or hobbies wasn't thing till early to mid 20th century. The early Olympics even had amateur only rules.

There is more to life than being a chess player or a mathematican. His point is more to do focusing/obsessing on a single narrow subject, given morphy's own experience I would say he is more than qualified to make that comment.
