Scalabrine is very accessible and does regular interviews and has talked extensively about "The Scallenge" (where he challenged several high level non-professional players in one-on-one). One extremely insightful point he once made on Duncan Robinson's podcast is that part of the reason he's "closer to LeBron" is that he's played LeBron. He wouldn't be a good player if he hadn't played professionally against top-level talent. It might not be worth it to dedicate yourself like that, but that kind of dedication and commitment to competition is probably the only way you will achieve close to a high level and even then, you may end up only an also-ran.
What? Are you sure you're looking at the right language? Or maybe you've confused stable rust and nightly rust?
There is a great quote of Paul Morphy

"The ability to play chess is the sign of a gentleman. The ability to play chess well is the sign of a wasted life."

Only with age I can appreciate how true that quote is. There was an article that came up not long ago about GMs selling games for others to earn their GM norms. And the sad truth is being GM in chess doesn't put a food on the table.

The very peak of the players can make a living some as coaches or streamers but not everyone can be a 'winner'.

One issue is that the factory is located within the boundaries of the Wasserschutzgebiet Erkner/Neu Zittau, which means they have extra strict environmental safety requirements to avoid contaminating the water.

That seems like it could've been avoided, since Brandenburg doesn't have that many Wasserschutzgebiete: https://maps.brandenburg.de/apps/Wasserschutzgebiete/ (The WSG Erkner/Neu Zittau is the big blob south of Erkner, southeast of Berlin.

Reproducibility is not a problem here. Falsifiability is.

That said, this can't be "useful data" unless you are willing to accept non falsifiable interpretations. There's no way of formulating such an interpretation.

Whether or not we call it science is semantics, highly loaded semantics. We could stop calling it science, but then we'd have to also stop being derisive of unscientific methodology.

More realistically, maybe we should rename "the scientific method" to "the Popperian standard." After all, both the term science and its associated culture predate the definition/standard you are alluding to.

The researchers themselves haven't done anything wrong. They're researching interesting things in theory field, and publishing in the format journals demand... ostensibly to satisfy objections such as yours.

You can't have it both ways.
The study[1] doesn't appear to define 'supplement'. Is there some understood definition? That seems like a vague term to apply statistical analysis to without some categorization.

Hey Hacker News Community!

Thanks to the Hacker News mods for allowing us to post this here. The HackerNoon team has created a new platform to nominate and vote for your favorite startups all over the world - anyone can nominate, anyone can vote!

To talk more about the details behind the development of the software, here are some words from our lead dev of the project:

"Hey HN community! We built a ballot voting app when we started the Noonies (our yearly writer awards) because we found the current solutions out there too limiting, and most of all requiring user registration in order to limit duplicate votes. We got around that by storing session data on which awards a user voted for. Granted, it’s not a fool-proof approach, but it sufficed for most general users. We could still monitor for suspicious voting activity via analytics, and correct accordingly. We also made use of Google’s reCAPTCHA v3 to hinder bot voting.

Startups is a fork off the Noonies with a fresh lick o’ paint and some structural differences. But it’s powered by the same voting system."

We hope that this platform can help startups with limited marketing budgets get their name out there and have a place to live permanently on the web and be shared with a larger community.

We'd be happy to hear your comments on what we've built and any suggestions you may have for us.

Cheers!

> program a new task which requires software testing and engineers

To be fair, Rethink did understand this part, and part of their pitch was that it was supposed to be easy to teach their robots tasks with a kind of observe/repeat flow; here's a video from way back in 2012 showing where they were trying to go with this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gXOkWuSCkRI

They're not the only ones either, UR has also placed a heavy emphasis on safety and ease of task training, though unlike Rethink, I don't believe their systems come with any built-in sensing, so it really is limited to just mindlessly repeating exactly what you show it: https://www.universal-robots.com/academy/
Why remote working leaves us vulnerable to cyber-attacks
Why not? At the end, fines are another form of taxes. As I mentioned in another comment, in Netherlands there is such law in place. If the apartment is not occupied for a year then you have to report it to municipality and they will arrange something for you. Or you will be fined if you don't report. That law was made to fight with shortage of apartments as well as to prevent squatting. While it's not perfect, it seems to be working.

But that is in regards with living apartments, I'm not sure how that applies for office and other business buildings.
No, I'm definitely on the right language. For example, lots of magical implicit reborrows with fuck all in the documentation, pattern matches and specifiers with no formal behavior defined, lints that change constantly. I do use nightly generally, simply because stable is crippled in features, but the same issues apply to stable.

I should mention that even when they adjust these things in a stable release, they never fix the documentation to reflect it. And in the case of many of these things, they aren't documented at all, except perhaps a couple sentences about their existence.

After reading that article it seems like it would be better to replace the “grandmaster norm” part of the process with standardized tournaments against a calibrated computer engine.
If you are on the fence then it might be worth re-reading what the NY times wrote about it back then.

For example, I could not find much wrong with this from February 2020:

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/02/17/business/media/coronaviru...

It does (correctly, IMO) focus on the 'bioweapon' conspiracies rather than the 'lab leak' theory and mentions how the senator ended up distancing himself from the former.

And actually, the original letter in The Lancet might also not be entirely unreasonable? I cannot find fault with it, provided one interprets the phrase 'not have a natural origin' as 'engineered' (rather than 'leaked'). See here:

https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6...

You should of course feel free to disagree, but it might be worth reading these sources before continuing the discussion? And maybe there are other articles I missed?

... take a risk. As far as I know nobody guarantees that those COVID vaccines are without any dangerous side-effect, therefore there is a risk.

In my opinion a referendum is the only way to exhibit what you take for granted: before any vaccination campaign, more than 50% voters have to explicitly ask for a "mandatory vaccination". We had plenty of time to organize this in 2020.

'The new disclosure revealed that the Post and the Journal each received more than $100,000 per month to run print versions of Chinese propaganda articles. The Times received $50,000 in 2018 to place the propaganda on its website, presumably a small fraction of the revenue it made selling print space to China Daily. The new disclosures also showed that China Daily paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to the Los Angeles Times, the Chicago Tribune, the Houston Chronicle, and other large regional newspapers to print copies of the China Daily for local distribution.'

Wow I didn't realize how terrible the vaccine was from that diagram you posted! I thought it was equivalent to Polio or MMR.

And allowing the 90% of the population who are below 60 and healthy to live their lives.
Thank you for highligting a key problem area. As a new entity, we believe that we first have to build trust with migrant communities by helping them with more standardised everyday tasks. As we build trust, we will onboard vendors for healthcare related services.

We have already helped customers who needed access to at-home care for their parents back home but that was more on an ad-hoc basis. In the long term, we plan to standardise access to such service as well.

I spent time thinking about this.

I think this is the closest to "absolute moral truths". People discover these because these are not some arbitrary rules, the are actually absolute, universal laws.

People understand subconsciously, for example, than a person that does good for no reason expresses higher form of being good that a person that does good in exchange for some kind of benefit.

It doesn't mean that mutually beneficial relations are not good, the society is basically built on spoken or unspoken contracts.

But we understand that a person that does good altruistically, not expecting any benefit for it, is much more likely to be trustworthy in all situation. And a person that does good expecting benefits may (not must, just may) turn on you when they stop seeing benefits.

And I think the same goes for countries.

When we see US performing their foreign relations game but only ever putting their weight when we can later find they were expecting some kind of benefit, and almost never for countries that have nothing to offer, it becomes transparent to us that US is basically much less likely to be trustworthy than if it did its actions based on principles.
At least, we learn that "Pride and Prejudice" translates into 10,711 physical SLOC (source lines of code) or 10.7 KLOC (kilo lines of code). A metric good to know, if you want to manage a book… ;-)

That seems so much work, to not ask or help someone pronounce a name.

The world is globalized, it's not expected as a norm to be able to pronounce every name properly.

My name isn't in "English" and I grew up in the USA. The people whom act like you when I introduce myself and talk are the most annoying. I don't have any onus on everyone pronouncing my name properly and if they say it with English phonetics then that's acceptable because they're trying to adapt their language to my name.

That is much more polite then having this internal monologue and judging/having bias to everyone else that they're "inconsiderate."

Just ask how to pronounce if you can't, read the room and then apologize if it needs to be said.

Loosen up.

> Responding to change over following a plan

“Responding to change” is treated as a right to bust WIP at any moment in time. All engineers I have worked with want a roadmap and a plan that has enough room and flexibility to be changed due to some external circumstances (bespoke “change”).

> Working software over comprehensive documentation

This statement puts two characteristics of a software product (be it SDK, library, source code package, binary, whatever) into contradiction. Working software is accompanied with comprehensive documentation.

> Welcome changing requirements, even late in
development. Agile processes harness change for
the customer's competitive advantage.

Late requirements change is what all engineers hate… And as stated in a number of comments here customers want no more than a faster horse. Best products ever made were not made based upon focus group feedback.

Are scrum masters an antipattern then or just a sign that the team in question is not self organized and immature?

Bottom line: any “agile” methodology I’ve come across and experienced myself for the last several years is a mix of cargo cults, religious ceremonies and abusing the word “agile” to justify chaos, incompetence, ignorance and arrogance.

What in essence all the agile methodologies are meant to be is the domain specific extension of the PDCA cycle.

I think you comment does not contribute to the conversation. If you're annoyed by my question that does not make it an argument or move the conversation forward. If you can share some aspects of boosting that clarify your argument, please do so.

The funny truth is, I strongly suspect, I know about ads and ranking and boosting no less than you do. What's called boosting could be complex set of many different algorithms that change over time. Boosting that was a year ago is not the same one that is now, etc.

But overall the irony of our exchange is here. Quoting from DI about section:

Feels like this specific post about facebook is actually quite a hypebole a bit like a propaganda post. With a lot of assumptions and accusations. With the purpose to push specific agenda. In your post you spit hate towards facebook, but when confronting with some questions to test the logic of your claims, you finally appeal to authority rather than clarifying your claims.

In the current state of play you might be right.

I think many of the same rules apply to anti-phishing. A lot of it is about education: making sure that patrons know what a legitimate QR code domain is going to be in advance so they can check it, providing some reporting system for suspect ones (this probably just means telling a member of staff so they can scrape it off and tell the police).

There are some additional advantages afforded to us in the real world like, if the need arise, they could be made hard to forge by including custom holograms, embossed patterns and the like.

Although at the moment it seems not many places are taking advantage of these kinds of practices yet, probably because a high profile breach has yet to happen around it.
Businessmen Smuggles Military Chips to China, Gets Five Years
(For context: I teach Rust since 2015)

Rust is "simple" in that it is based on a few solid principles. Data with layout, Ownership of the data and the distinction between sharing and mutability (through immutable references and mutable references). Most of the interesting API in _some_ way leans into that. So, the _basics_ of Rust are indeed quite constrained.

But that's "simple" in the sense of "Ruby is simple, everything is objects and message passing".

But then: Generics introduce a ton complexity on top, because they open a space where you are _potentially_ in a borrowed _or_ an owned situation. There's tons of tiny optimisations and protocols: for example that `Box<[u8]>` exists and turning it into `Vec<u8>` comes basically for free. There's tiny details like compiler assists that sometimes trigger and sometimes not.
But even Generics can also be seen as an application/extension of the basic principles.

And then, there's tons of tooling and language that you need to know. Standard traits and features of the stdlib. Clever applications of Ownership based management for handles.

And particularly Rust is (currently) not _easy_, because the programming environment has fundamentals that are unusual to program that you cannot bypass as a beginner. That actually changes, the more those practices get known to people and individuals can teach each other rather than finding out themselves.

I think what people say when they say "Rust is simple" is that they can break down any house to a limited set of bricks. That is certainly true. But that needs a level of proficiency with the language. So, telling beginners "look at Rust, it's simple" is harmful - it's full of combinations and applications of its language core and it will take quite some time to learn breaking that down for people and figure out which tool is for which moment.

I think you misunderstood what I meant by "comfortable" here. I didn't mean to suggest that $130k is super normal - it's about the ceiling at my company - but $130k would make for very comfortable living.

I live in Denmark, and the average salary for a software developer is about $80k or so. However, $100k+ is not uncommon and, as I mentioned, $130k is about the ceiling at my company.

However, if you go solo and work as an independent consultant, you can easily make $100/h or even twice that if you're in a really good position.
