The sad thing is this is all for a little bit of efficiency to get all the feces easily into a trough. Before most the cages could flat pack along walls so let pigs out for 15 minutes a day pack cages and run a front end loader up and down halls and hose it down. Housing 3-4 sows in a cage most likely one will get bullied a bit and produce some runts but acceptable losses to not treat an animal smarter than a dog like a meat factory.

IMO this is a pretty clear-cut discrimination case. I'm aware that lawsuits can be problematic for quite a few reason, but just eating it up would be a just as horrible suggestion.
Doh, I meant in some of them, not all of them. I had basketball in mind, but words are hard.
I don't understand how "using a GUI to drive this tool" instead of "using a CLI to drive this tool" means someone doesn't understand version control, doesn't care about how their code interacts with their team, or doesn't know how the tool works.

Why does Javis use `act!(object, action)`
rather than making actions callable structs so you could do
`action(object)` ?
Yeah that’s on me. Writing is hard. I meant some, not all.
Subsidized or invested in by?

I know your point - today the WNBA loses money.

But the NBA is a business not a charity. And they're a private enterprise. They don't do this out of the goodness of their heart or some social justice cause.

Clearly they believe it's an investment worth making.
There is, if you are talking about "centrally-controlled" tokens/coins (e.g. USDC, USDT, BUSD). They can simply "lock" the stolen coins and print you new ones (as they have done before).

If you are talking about decentralized tokens/coins (BTC), then... yes, you can't arbitrarily seize or print new ones (but that resistance to arbitrary manipulation is generally considered a feature, not a bug).

And, again, in this case (sending money/assets to Binance, or even to a US-based exchange like Coinbase), FDIC would be irrelevant and not be triggered, even if you use USD (I assume it only applies to money kept in banks and not necessarily to money kept in other type of non-bank brokers or exchanges).
"Noob" has a negative connotation.

https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Noob

> Contrary to the belief of many, a noob/n00b and a newbie/newb are not the same thing. Newbs are those who are new to some task* and are very beginner at it, possibly a little overconfident about it, but they are willing to learn and fix their errors to move out of that stage. n00bs, on the other hand, know little and have no will to learn any more. They expect people to do the work for them and then expect to get praised about it

The specifics of the definition probably vary depending on who you ask but that's roughly it.
What more do you want beyond "will work"?

There were a dota2 bot match events before. Dota2 had a great bots moment like the go, when open ai's dota2 bots beat human players, and showcased different meta strategy of winning the game.

I believe the bot ti was no longer hosted because there seems no strong monetizing channels. Even that a lot of people enjoy them.

DRM is not about piracy. Content producers know that all their content ends up on PirateBay anyway, and know DRM causes them support costs and lost customers.

For content distributors DRM is still worth in because of the power it gives them in dictating how the content can be viewed. They can demand hardware manufacturers to give them prominent placement, or be blocked. They can sell the same content over and over again for every screen type and platform individually, with rules and prices at maximum each will bear. They can set their own rules, instead of relying on general provisions of the copyright law.
Unpopular opinion: I'll continue to work hard and have an advantage over others (not literally with my coworkers, but generally in my profession). Competition drives me and it fuels everything I do. Without it, I don't want to live anymore. Working and solving problems is extremely fun for me.

Even if I am not writing code, fixing things in the house, personal projects, helping others, just doing something is fun and challenging.
was Seinfeld shot on video or 35mm film? Interesting to know.

Also Netflix's obsession with 4K is slightly anti-scientific and counterproductive imo. They are really boxing in their content creators at times, plus 4K can't be resolved in a reasonably large television at a moderate distance from a couch anyway. 4K is the dumbest thing. There's one cinematographer who said for viewing even 1080p was pretty good, and hardly distinguishable from 4K - for CINEMA screens. HDR is cool tho.
Why people are still using and promoting Cloudflare when the company is repeatedly trying to position itself as an internet gatekeeper?

There is already a consensus that internet gatekeeping is bad for people, so why people are volunteering for this?

This company already has a tremendous control over what people can or cannot see on internet since a lot of websites use it has CDN, but there should be a limit on what companies can do or cannot.

In this particular case, we have blind people blocked from internet, and it doesn't matter if this is not on purpose or it is just a side effect, because in practice they are been blocked, and yet something like this is unable to make a scratch its reputation.
I'm glad this is still being developed. I tried it out around the time Windows 8/10 came out, because to my taste the Cleartype settings were much worse than in Windows 7. However, MacType didn't help with Metro programs, or with Word 2013, in which Microsoft switched to a non-subpixel renderer for the document and made everything a jagged mess. What were they thinking?

As another commenter said, moving toward higher DPI makes this less necessary. But I'm still bitter over the years of ugliness I had to suffer through after having such nice Cleartype rendering in Windows XP and 7.
There wasn't any doubt for decades. Normal thinking people understand cause and effect. Understand basic science of greenhouse effect. Understand if energy is not reflected to space it is stored and that you can't do that forever with impunity.
> Efficient market hypothesis is based on humans acting rationally with available information.

I'm not claiming markets are efficient, or that all humans have access to the same amount of resources or information, just that there are many different incentives out there for people and there isn't a one size fits all.

> Ex: clearly we have done poorly with carbon emissions and global warming, and now we can only hope that throwing money at the problem can solve it.

Even with this, not everyone has the same perspective or the same exposure to the downsides. Not everyone will throw more resources at their problems, some will more than others, some will collect it and squander it more than others, no matter their ends.

> Can you explain what you mean by this?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Federal_Reserve_branch...

> I'm confident society will make it out alive, but at what cost.

The cost is irrelevant, because whatever it may be, it's not going to be born by everyone equally, some will come out ahead and others wont (i.e. if ones family member bought a bunch of land [and didn't lose it through war/confiscation/default/etc] in 18XX with x paper notes, they'd be better off than someone who just spent equivalent x paper notes on a consumable in 18XX). Not everyone will be exposed to inflation because some people are hedged, or live in countries where the value of the dollar is constantly growing wrt what goods they can purchase locally with dollars.

Events are always going to happen, and everyone will respond differently to them everytime. Sure pockets of consensus will form but to expect it to be prevalent among everyone is highly unlikely, and hoping for such to happen is a sisyphean task.
My home internet speed exceeds SATA.
Based on the writeup, this technique isn't really about enabling you to start writing `s.position.x` where the old code would have written `s.x`. If that were all you wanted, you'd just keep writing `s.x`. It's about enabling you to write `s.x` everywhere, in old code and new code, while also being able to pass `s.position` to memcpy calls. You're never supposed to write `s.position.x`.
It’s part of every product team’s baseline requirements to own and assess. It’s considerably easier to do that up front than to retrofit. Think of it as analogous to security in this situation.

Short term pleasure is not wrong. The entire premise boils down to the belief that the 40 hour work-week means you are sacrificing long-term and short-term pleasure for superficial short-term pleasure, and that the inherent dissatisfaction arising from the arrangement is the only thing supporting the economy and resulting lifestyles as they exist, perpetuating dissatisfaction, for, practically, the sake of dissatisfaction.

> My life would not be improved by less money, by the way. More free time, yes, fewer purchases, not necessarily.

If the entire economy were not designed to suck money out of your pockets (and thus time out of your life), you might feel differently.
Agreed, on low-res screens, I actually prefer completely unaliased text rendering. It looks jagged and I like the kind of retro vibe it gives.
We already have one serial signalling method being "pan-standard." It's single mode optics transmission.

Optic transmitters already don't care what data exactly, and how is sent through them. The electrical interface in between them, and the main chip is a dumb SERDES, and it does exactly nothing except sending the data as-is.

Once on chip, the signal is free to be routed without any special electrical modulation as one wants.

Plain SFP+ transmitted are used from Ethernet, to FibreChannel, to Infiniband, to SONET, to 4G CPRI, to HDBaseT. Both fibre, and optics actually got really, really cheap.

Is there a case for ML based advanced screen readers which do not need assistance from the application ?

The problem seems fairly tacklable . Learning what is on a display screen is relatively easier than most computer vision problem spaces. There are many repetitive patterns in typical application UX.

For example let say there is a label for Save Icon that is an image (a Floppy Disk in most apps) and not alt tagged. By visually reading the image of the screen the model should not have to much difficulty in tagging it that as Save button ?

Most consumer / biz app UX do follow many standard conventions if only out of convenience and lack of imagination, so building a learning algorithm around these components should be possible ?

Conversely, 31% of Americans don't believe in climate change, which would be over 100 million people. That's pretty concerning. Though I also completely agree that the division is further exacerbated by the media.
JS doesn’t really peak in anything. Everything in JS people think is unique has been done decades ago. The comments show that tree shaking is no exception.
Some things not mentioned in TFA:

Avoid debt. Don’t buy a new car with a 48 month loan. Don’t buy a house. Don’t get a high limit credit card. All these things work against your ability to live the lifestyle he describes.

So if you already have the debt, sell what you can, aggressively pay off the rest, and stop adding more.

Next, don’t fall in love with someone who isn’t of similar travel mentality. Otherwise you are torn between wanting travel and not wanting to leave your partner.
The only drawback is that Thunderbolt is fairly expensive and the cables are very expensive.
Exactly! I really don’t understand why they went with TOML — with pypackage.toml and now this — when there’s no stdlib TOML support. Given that it therefore requires an extra package, why not go with YAML? If they don’t care about optimising for human-readability, then stick to JSON.
> Like if we stopped all CO2 emissions would it really help?

I assume yes. Right now CO2 emissions outnumbers the rate plants transform CO2 to O2.
I always thought the biggest difference was subpixel vs grayscale anti-aliasing.

Prior to very high pixel density screens, I hated the Mac/android font rendering, mostly due to the migraines caused by my eyes straining to correct for the seemly out-of-focus text blur.
Masturbation and porn can be enjoyable but like anything if it's causing a problem or dominating your thinking to a distracting degree you might need to seek some mental health help.

I may be infering something you didn't state but your phrasing that you "identify as a schizoid personality disorder" sounds like you self-diagnosed this.

> Their “client” was basically a fancy, highly specialized graphics terminal; all the real work was done on the server. For example, when you issued a command to an object, instead of sending a command message to the object on the server, the client would send the X-Y coordinates of your mouse click. The server would then render its own copy of the scene into an internal buffer to figure out what object you had clicked on.

+100 for Magit. My favorite feature is rebasing directly on logs.
IIRC these things depend on the port and the cable supporting it. If so, we'll have a universal form factor for all sorts of functions that depend on the capabilities of the port and the cable both being clearly labeled which, in practice, are requirements not always satisfied (or understood by most users). For the most part in the past there was one cable that did one thing, fit one specific port, and basically did what it was expected to do without any fuss.

I expect more confusion and frustration from non-power-users.
Or as Lawrence says in Office Space, "Well you don't need a million dollars to do nothing, man. Just take a look at my cousin, he's broke, don't do shit."
This is probably a terrible idea, remember that if you have written one member of a union, all other members remain public, yet accessing any of them in any way is undefined behaviour. This is made way worse by most compilers mostly choosing to let you do what you think it will. They just dont guarantee they always will or in all cases.
Have you tried to use the windows ClearType Text Tuner to improve the font rendering? Windows tries to take advantage of subpixels to improve crispness but it can cause color fringing which makes text harder to read. The tuner utility helps with that. You can also disable cleartype entirely to get standard anti-aliasing, which is what macOS does on non-retina screens. Personally I find the macOS way of rendering on standard dpi displays a bit too blurry.

As for images, the only difference I can imagine is a different handling of color profiles.

Update: I totally forgot about the mixed dpi situation. When you hook up a monitor of a different dpi than the laptop (e.g. the laptop is 150% scaling but the monitor is 100%, or vice versa), then only one display will be perfectly crisp for all apps, and that's the primary display at login. Only applications designed to take advantage of the right scaling API's will look crisp on both displays in that case. The other ones will look blurry on the non-primary display. MacOS does tend to handle that situation a little bit better.
Ask HN: Employer is requiring vaccine, but I have a medically documented issue
Hello,

Some may know that large corporate employers have publicly and internally announced return dates for the office, and also announced vaccine mandates for all employees.

While I would like to receive the vaccine, I am medically unable. I have had very severe allergic reactions to different vaccines and medications in the past which required hospitalization due to hives and difficulty breathing/swallowing.

How can I keep my job, work in the office (wearing a mask), and not have to receive a vaccine which is (based on previous medical history) a high risk of being dangerous to me?
Office Internet speed - it's 10G. The LAN speed actually is less - just 1G because of the on-board NIC - I just don't need more.
The NFT standards need to be updated to include a hook that ensures royalties go to the creator upon transfer.

Sadly this is currently impossible as the NFT doesn't store the amount of value it was traded for within it. But it could.

For now, royalties only occur on third party platforms of NFTs.

Indeed. It seems to inject code into every process on the system. That increases the risk to the system more than any typical standalone program.
If a visitor were to go to such a facility, it's quite likely they'd have to sign an NDA and/or that their phone would be confiscated for the duration of their tour of this new technology. But let an executive in, phone in hand, and he does the very thing they're trying to prevent.

There are several problems with that approach. First, there's not enough information in the serialized accessibility tree to reconstruct the DOM.[1]

Second, the serialization format is an internal API, so there are no constraints on backwards compatibility. It can change in any version of Chromium. In fact, the interface is updated all the time.[2] Cloudflare would have to constantly update their JS client to handle those changes. It's not an abstraction that can be relied upon.

Third, the bandwidth and latency requirements for inter-process communication are far higher than what is available for most client-server communication. Even if the API were stable, I doubt it would be feasible to use on typical Internet connections. If you don't believe me, go to chrome://accessibility/ and click "Start recording" on a tab. I did this for an IRCCloud tab and got 4500 events in approximately 2 seconds.

Depending on your auto-didact capabilities, you can start this process by studying with the various on-line paid courses, there may be some free ones as well. Someone already in security can further advise you the degree of specialisation or granularity for you to pursue. The field is both wide and deep. You can sub-study in Windows, Linux, Unix,IOS - in addition there are sub areas, like data base makers, like Oracle and others.
Once you have selected the area you want to specialize in you need to study in depth, following reference trees etc.
The paid courses offer certification via tests with their fees.
Deciding the particular special area, the next stage is to seek employment at your certificate level(you may have a number of certs). Companies also specialise in areas, so inspect the field.
Bear in mind, you will need to acquire system expertise on the system you specialise on = buy a typical system as a practice field, you may have several systems.
There are many openings, so recruiters will present you with choices = you apply. If your self study is well done, you will get interviewed to plumb your abilities, and you may get offers. Do not neglect the government, NSA and military, there are many valuable roles you can fill.
The famed hackers you have read about are often self taught trial-and-error people, who by perseverance and intelligence have become narrowly specialised at hacking. In many respects a lot of the low hanging fruit has been gathered - that said modern systems are bewilderingly complex and there seem to be a huge number of hidden bugs being found daily.
Some are sold to companies by their bug bounty programs, which you may have read about. Some are sold to bad actors who keep them quiet and selectively employ them by national actors. Their value goes down once they are exposed and get exploited for gain - the so called 'zero-day' - when it suddenly gets used for mal use widely and the OS makers try to examine the bug and deploy a patch to kill the exploit as fast as they can. Patch negligence extends the life of an exploit - obviously patched systems are immune.
Sorry, to repeat what many may already know. Good luck,
Aside from practical concerns such as time and money, these kind of battles can be very emotionally draining. Some of the most stressful experiences I've had in life is when some company or person did me a serious injustice and it's hard to get your rights.

I found it's better to let go, for my own sake. It's very stressful and very easy for the situation to consume you, which isn't healthy and on balance you may be worse off if you factor this in. Everyone is different, and other people may experience these kind of things different, but I've seen the same in various other people, both publicly and in my private life.

Of course this really sucks and is very unfair. But it doesn't change it.
Have you consulted with your HR dept to see if there is corporate policy on this?

Recently, I've been thinking about "City Country Fingers," a way of integrating urban and agricultural land found in Christopher Alexander's "A Pattern Language." You can read his description of the pattern here: http://iwritewordsgood.com/apl/patterns/apl003.htm

With the Monks Wood rewilding in mind, I wonder how we could transition urban areas toward a city country finger pattern. Though perhaps there should be three kinds of fingers: city, agriculture, and wilderness. Alexander's "country" is just farmland, though he envisions its recreational use too.
But how is that binary choice artificial? You’d have exactly the same choice 10000 years ago. Either go and hunt and forage for food, or starve
