>It sounds a lot like "kids these days" fallacy which has been the standard complaint of each adult generation since the start of history

First, pedantically speaking it's not a fallacy (as in "logical fallacy"). It's just a statement that can be right or wrong.

And this is regardless of whether it has been repeated "since the start of history". It could still:

(a) be always true (everytime it has been repeated)

(b) be always false (everytime it has been repeated)

(c) be sometimes true and sometimes true

There's no logical necessity that it has to be (b) just because it's a "standard complaint".

In fact, given what we know about periods of acme and decline, and also for periods of stability, it's obviously (c). Sometimes the complain is correct.

So, the question is whether in this case, for this period, it has been true or false -- not a facile dismissal with the non-argument that "people has been saying that since forever, so it must always be false".
I feel like right now flutter is about 1/10th the level of popularity it will eventually reach. It has a great story for UI from multiple angles (cross platform, developer experience, tooling etc).

It’s still very young v2 only came out a couple of months ago so it’s not entirely without issues at the moment but there are a LOT of apps that I think could easily use Flutter in production across all platforms today and that story is only getting better.

The figures for 2021 aren't available yet as the year isn't over. If you want more immediate data, please ask your elected representative to prioritise funding scientific research.

I'm curious why you're fixating on this year though? Do you think something has changed from the past 20 years? You do know the SMB has been mostly positive over that period, right?
I partially agree, I think everyone in principle feels it's wrong to throw data away, if there are absolutely no compromises to be had.

"Hey, there are these two copies of a song, one was digitally filtered and does not contain all the detail, maybe you can't hear the difference, they're same price/speed/storage which one do you take?"
Everyone takes the lossless.

Start introducing different cost (in download speed, storage space, whatever) and peoples choices start diverging.

But as the cost fall and become more identical between lossy and lossless, people will be more partial to lossless on principle alone.

Give it 10-20 years, there will be head-fi streaming services offering lossless movie streaming.
It's not the political leadership, it's the financial levers. Visa and Mastercard, specifically.

Yes, there's an overlap there, but your use of the expression "a ban on religion in the political space" highlights the problem. To frame it first as a political problem in the sense of political parties and professional politicians misses where the harm is being done; and to expand the definition of "political space" in your ban to include private financial operators would ban religion entirely.

And that's also not possible to do while calling yourself a free country.

Our focus is on software teams who closely collaborate to ship product functionality (eg. do daily 'standups'). We want to make the process of helping one another much better that what the status quo is today. For example, I have found that a code review process rarely creates deeper discussions on design/ideas, something that comes more naturally when pairing. With this said, we also want to make contributing code to be more accessible to people new to the profession.

Small teams that care about iterating quickly and frequently shipping to production are the type of folks we work closely with in developing the product.

They had a pepper blend when the recipe called for (I assume) straight spices and probably mortaring it all together.

Going through so much effort to match the source material but not the minimal additional step to source the proper ingredients (which have not at all disappeared and are easily obtainable) is weird.

We are negative, because it seems either Musk doesn't seem to fully respect and appreciate the difficulty and the steps required to build a humanoid robot, or he is lying about what he thinks is possible at the expense of customers, shareholders, and employees.

I honestly don't understand why they don't use their FSD+electic motors+battery tech and create a bunch of products on wheels; farming equipment, robotic lawnmowers, robotic vacuum cleaners, street cleaners, etc.

I think there is so much potential in autonomous farming equipment, and even the robotic cleaners could be an order of magnitude better than current products, if the FSD logic works. But maybe electric farming equipment is less feasible than a humanoid, and, obviously, cleaners are less cool.

It seems like much more feasible, useful, and lower hanging fruit with the tech they already have, compared to this. It could also create confidence in the autonomous capabilities of Tesla's FSD, and it would lead to sellable products within years instead of decades or more.
Elon Musk unveils 'Tesla bot,' a humanoid robot
I saw this story when, I believe, it hit the HN frontpage the last time; it buries the important part of this whole thing, because that doesn't make for good clickbait: not feeding cows diets mainly made from corn byproducts makes them fart less.

The most destructive thing, farming wise, we do... is the corn industry. Ruining soil faster than any other crop? Corn. Using so much water in the midwest that it makes California's water shortage look competent? Corn. Polluting the waterways with commercial fertilizers, resulting in, but not limited to, the dead zone of the Gulf of Mexico? Corn.

Does corn have any nutritional value to humans or our livestock? Nope! Does it produce anything valuable for industrial purposes? Nope! Would it continue to exist without the trillions in subsidies we've paid over the past decade? Nope! Is it one of the primary drivers behind the obesity crisis? Yup!

Can't print that headline though, rich people get angry when the truth collides with their Scrooge McDuck-esque money vaults. So, "feeding them seaweed" as a "think positive" headline workaround continues to get the word out, albeit in a strange way.
Wait till they learn about methane.

It is respectable 100 times more potent than CO2 and it is produced naturally in vast quantities in thawing permafrost.

It is as you say, inserting bias, if you correct the data for biases you yourself dont agree to.

As for bias on white faces vs. black, its my understanding that it just is harder to recognize black faces because of lightning effects. Black people need to be lightened different from white. See also: https://www.npr.org/sections/codeswitch/2014/04/16/303721251...

a violently drunk and yelling customer is causing harm to other customers. If they weren't we would be describing them as violently. How does adult content violently harm other content creators on OF?

If the restaurant kicked out a pair of customer because they happened to be in a same sex relationship, that would be less appreciated by other customers. They would ask the critical qualifying question "What harm have they done?", an question that distinguish the issue from the violently drunk.

> Not sure I'd want those in my mead

Which I would say is besides the point, the article was about recreating an ancient mead based on a recipe, which called for those ingredients.

Sometimes it's impossible to source the historical ingredients because they themselves have been lost (to memory or possibly entirely e.g. silphium), but that's not the case here. Both grains of paradise and long pepper are in active use, even if not in european cuisines.

Hey All,

I am Alex, the Co-founder of thatpart app which we have recently launched.

The app is free and lets you save & share podcast clips from a screenshot.

You can share the parts on social media, in a message or embed in a website, blog or email.

We think it could be a really useful tool for podcasters to expand their audience and market their podcasts as we know this is definitely an issue from a podcasters point of view.

Currently we are only on iOS but looking to launch on Android very soon.

I was writing something else, but I think you nailed it. If you give a quiz where the cynical answers are correct, then (gasp!) cynical people do well.

Of course I understand their point that social psychology is cynical, but I hope it isn't all cynical. I think there might be a publication bias here--studies which find that people act predictably and rationally don't become famous. No one would have heard of the Milgram experiment if everyone refused to shock the man.

Many of the questions are directly out of famous experiments where if you have read/heard about it, you know the correct answer. I do question if perhaps bored introverts just spend a lot of time reading books and articles instead of possessing some sort of innate insight into humanity.

> Cattle are such a big part of greenhouse emissions that if this really had legs without some underlying problem it would be funded like a war effort.

According to a brief search, cattle represent about 3.3% of greenhouse gas emissions. Transportation is 29%, electricity is 25%.

Seems to me better logistics (not transporting stuff that needn't be transported) and better electricity generation is worth more trillions than cows burping.

...Is the question corpus randomized? Why is nobody talking about this completely incomprehensible grapefruit question?

Is it possible that Bob infers that he likes this particular grapefruit more than other grapefruits, because he has experienced all these positive feelings around this grapefruit?

I can kind of understand what it's asking, but this is worse on my brain than "colorless green ideas sleep furiously". It feels like I've stepped into a surrealist novella.

How about a legal and regulated sex industry.

I live in a country with next to no violent premeditated murders, next to no violent robbery. And a LOT of very poor people. But there is a public social safety net which you can't fall below. So no one is ever really desperate.

I understand if you're based in the US why you think this way, but it's a self-fulfilling prophecy.

I'm naturally interested in psychology and pay attention to any media that discusses it stuff including popular books.
Most of these are mental health issues. ESPECIALLY violent rape. Really every cop will tell you that vast majority of crime is not committed by some cold-blooded, well-planning, career criminals - but by mentally unstable or sick people and/or people suffering from addictions, that do ridiculous things being clearly out of sane mind. Sadly, psychiatry is really in its infancy and its success record at both diagnosis and treatment plain out sucks.
Nothing on that page is about passing data around. It's about whether or not you should manage state locally in the component, or globally in the state manager. In cases where you choose to hold the data in the global state manager you access the state manager (in React) via a context provider. That context provider is not a part of Redux - it's react-redux as isakkeyten noted.

I understand that this probably feels incredibly pedantic but it's quite important to frontend engineers like me. Redux is only a state manager, and it is not a React library.

> If cyanide was a regular ingredient in food, people with normal levels of mitochondrial rhodanese would be “hampered in their function” – they wouldn't be able to eat even a tenth of the cyanide-containing food a normal person could eat without straight-up dying! You or I would therefore have a disability that just doesn't exist in our society, without any change having occurred to us.

So you're argument is "it's not they who don't fit, it's society who doesn't fit them", which may be true, but it extremely unhelpful and a pipe dream. It's all well and good to say "society should change to include people who don't fit", but we've been a social species with complex social interactions for over 20 kiloyears. Asking to change that because of a very small percentage is both inpractical and quite self-centered.

not: That's the expert's job, not the politician's. A politician's job is to secure and maintain enough support from critical stakeholders so that they can stay in power.

My own feeling is that many of these people were not born evil, but their life circumstances as children (e.g. extreme poverty or abuse by family members) set them on a bad trajectory that's quite hard to correct for in adulthood.

I think giving every child a stable home life will go a long way in reducing crime. Of course some people will slip through the cracks. But I'm in agreement with OP that the number is quite small compared to the number of people currently incarcerated.

> Not to mention that porting WinForms from .NET Framework to .NET 6 requires a rewrite for anything more complex than a Hello World.

We sell a fairly complex custom control, both for Windows Forms and WPF. There were zero changes necessary for the migration to .NET Core 3 back then. We still build both .NET Framework and .NET Core assemblies from exactly the same source.

Depending on how many 3rd-party dependencies are used and what other weirdnesses one does in code there may well be projects that are impossible or really hard to convert. But overall my experience was that for a lot of applications there are few, if any, changes necessary.
Ask HN: What LinkedIn alternatives don't suck?
I've been using LinkedIn almost since Day 1 and I'm not sure why. I had ~10,000 e-mails from headhunters, only about 150 of which were somewhat relevant, of that 1 resulted in directly putting any money in my pocket.

In my connections I had ~6,000 connections, and about 150 of them I had worked with, 50-60 would pass the beer test, and maybe 25 I would recognize.

Meanwhile LinkedIn has pretty much become a business-oriented spammy Facebook, so I deleted my account.

Is GitHub the best place to show off my skills / hold a resume, or are there any other worthy alternatives which haven't just become Facebook clones?

How does getting a grade in an exam demonstrate anything other than the ability to regurgitate information?

Just about every exam I had at university involved solving/proving at least one novel problem that we'd never seen before. For example we might have seen the proof of a statement under certain conditions, but on the exam you where asked if it was also true for a slight different condition. That isn't something you could do just through memorizing the proofs you'd been shown in class.

Memorizing and 'regurgitating' would most of the time get you a passing grade, but never a top grade.
I don't see that in the "elite overproduction" framework. I see a bunch of desperate kids trying to stay in the middle class that their parents supposedly were in. You need an increased level of specialization to stand still.

Not just sed. Also ed, which is where sed got it from.
> Of course they are

there are plenty of cases where the 'of course' does not apply.

In computer vision for example models generally have a bias towards scale invariance but struggle with rotational invariance. This is not a problem of 'bad data', but of the kind of features that the architecture is prone to extract and represent while it struggles with others. That's why there is an entire zoo of different ML architectures and systems, because there is no magical uniform, algorithm that performs equally well in every domain. CNN's excel at spatial data, while RNNs perform better on sequential data, and so on.

Of course one can attempt to reframe this as a 'data problem' and argue that just means you need to input 100x more data of X than of Y, but that actually just shows that algorithm performance is not uniform, and the more productive thing would actually be to understand strengths and weaknesses of architecture.
That has been sorted out, but you need to make use of NDK APIs like AAudio, and naturally own a flagship device, so are the Google ways.
