Learning by invention is also my favourite way to learn.

However, I find it rather unappreciated among both teachers and textbook writers. What is usually done is the result is presented on a silver platter to regurgitate and reproduce, and important details are glossed over in favour of 'simplicity', creating a (dangerous) knowledge gap.
Go has generics. They're just not (yet) available for you.
So to some it feels like a Tantalus punishment.
Certainly believe that but wasn’t Michael posting on a blog pre 2008 telling people stuff?
Oops! Apologies if it caused a confusion. This (supershots) is a simple tool with no AI. But it is hosted on the same domain as my main product.
If you don't make it clear that bullshit is bullshit, if you pretend like it belongs to the realm of sanity, then the debate becomes a farce - some kind of Monty Python absurd comedy.
What does this do that a .bib file doesn't? It doesn't follow a standard which is made clear even by the creators themselves: "When you put a CITATION.cff file in the default branch of your GitHub repository, it is automatically linked from the repository landing page, and the citation information is rendered on the repository page, and also provided as BibTeX snippet which users can simply copy!"

I don't see why they don't stick to the established standard and parse a CITATION.bib instead. It would be less complex, more friendly to the user, and less likely to cause lock-in.
I think what you’re saying is that there are certain facets of the Internet one can get addicted to (such as social media), but not the Internet as a general concept. I think I agree with this, because the Internet is just too diverse.
> Elon promised a coast to coast self driving demonstration 5 years ago, and they are nowhere close.

Bingo.

This is when the Elon fanboys say “99.99999%” or “safety first” or “wide beta in 2 weeks”.
The only disgusting part is the one where vendors get to claim someone owes them without adequate proof and makes it a random person’s obligation to prove they do not owe the vendor rather than a vendor having to prove they did their due diligence in confirming someone’s identity.

> The disgusting part is the whole reason the providers demanded SS # is to defend their own interests to threaten clients with collection agencies and credit score dips. The neglect of these same now cause clients to risk getting credit score dips through no fault of their own.

I do not expect un-hackable systems and organizations to exist, so I would not find this “disgusting”, without knowing how the leak happened. It might be disgusting if there was a complete disregard for handling of the data, which might be true in this case, but I was responding to your comment as is there very idea that a mobile carrier can lend to a customer was disgusting.
>What is it people don't get about this?

these "people" get it. They just don't care if it's rape or a rape fantasy. or in fact just regular vanilla sex between a couple. They want it all gone. For everyone.

> It's just sad how sexually repressed some people are and that they think they have the right to control other people. It feels like we are one step from starting to burn "witches" and books again.

tbf that's almost human nature at this point. Some people just enjoy leading/ruling/controlling others. This is just another form of control for them.
Maybe they would have more users with real support.
Now this is a really interesting project. I hope they get their funding.
I think the world situation has pushed people into escaping with online media. I don't think think most of these dopamine detox/digital addiction framed arguments have the causation the right way around.

People aren't feeling bad because of continuous scrolling on news and social media. People are looking for something to take their minds off whatever difficulty they are facing.

People should do what they think will help but I don't think the framework of addiction is the right way to approach it. You don't have withdrawal and assuming the compulsion to return is because of the content and not because you want to escape holds you back from addressing the real issues.

Doing a "dopamine fast" will also force a person to reevaluate their current situation and not escape using tech.

The outcome will be positive but I feel that term addiction should be limited to things that seriously impact your life in a negative way.

Bad habits aren't the same as addiction.
> void* is "the simplest option that comes to mind", but where a template solution is available, safer, and clearer,

You're just playing silly semantics with "simplest" here. I meant that #define is genuinely the best overall solution to this particular problem, for the reasons I already gave. Whereas in void* vs templates, templates are genuinely the best overall solution.
Every hardware vendor ever says that. It's probably true for the people that built the software stack. Whether it is true for third parties is TBD.
> Do you feel compelled to go to the library

As someone who is not Gen-Z and remembers what life was before the internet, I can sure say that the internet beats any library I've ever spent time in.

The volume, diversity and ease of research ... all at your fingertips.

Why would anyone want to spend time trawling obscure library database systems only to find the library doesn't stock the right books or that someone has taken it on loan for an unknown period of time ?

Or worse .... microfiche. My god how that's a hellish storage medium I will not miss !
Thanks for bringing up friends. I find I’m compelled to talk to my friends regularly, on a daily basis. If I don’t get enough interaction with them, I get depressed. I start suffering withdrawal from lack of contact with friends. Also, like a true addict I can’t account for how much time I’ve spent with my friends in the last month. I can’t estimate how much I’ve lost career wise because I chose to prioritise this addiction instead.

You’re going to say “no no, friends are different.” That it’s actually healthy compared to let’s say, grinding WoW with friends from your guild. But it’s no different really. Why is it unhealthy if I spend hours playing WoW with friends but it’s healthy if I play football instead?

The dominant narrative on HN is that of course internet is an addiction. And that it’s pushed by evil companies that seek to profit off of it. Here’s a different perspective - the idea that it’s an addiction and that you’re powerless to solve it on your own is pushed by people who want you to turn to them to solve it. And pay for that privilege. In reality it’s not an addiction like heroin. You can beat it on your own without rehab or buying their 30 day detox program.
You're probably looking for something like: https://cantemo.com/

The losses are big having such a backdoor, but i am wondering about the gains. As far as I understand the police and the judicial system is often overwhelmed already with evidence. Wouldn't it be much better to pour money into the police for just this cause. My understanding is that they are largely underfunded and understaffed. It would seem much better to me if human intelligence would break into sharing rings rather than prosecuting a few more pedophiles. I would expect that they have enough leads from past cases...

I think just paying more taxes would be the safest interface between big tech and governments. The problem seems to me that we are loosing trust in our law enforcement and cannot find appropriate ways to empower them without involving big tech, that has no problem with cooperating with foreign law enforcement agencies. The whole situation is so awkward: Apple needs to protect us from law enforcement that they want to support. Something fundamental seems broken and research should actively look for solutions here.
If you try to talk yourself through how you'd actually accomplish that then you'd quickly see that it is turtles all the way down. Every time you discipline the clock for accuracy you trade some precision to do so - because that is the only way to move the needle. This isn't a big deal for most, but you'd definitely notice NTP slewing the oscillator frequency in the middle of something like a logic trace running at 10s of MHz - which is why labs generally prefer a precise local time standard that is costly (in dollars and hassle) over a cheaper GPS reliant solution offering better absolute accuracy.
sigh, this again... The experiment they quote never happened:

> determined by the OS/browser combination

And by browser settings; at least Firefox has quite a few TLS related knobs in about:config (and settings like spdy disable affect TLS hello too).
Ease of access is a part of maintaining addiction. There's a difference between having cancer-sticks magically appear in your pocket whenever you want one, and having to go to the store to get it, for example.
I wonder if it would have survived into the modern era, like many [0] of the compression-arch Roman bridges have. I imagine engineering history could have gone very differently, with such a crazy artifact standing as a proof-of-concept, inciting even bolder ideas. (What's the da Vinci version of steampunk called?)

[0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Roman_bridges

Apparently there's a lot of other attempts (beside OP's) to build scaled versions of this bridge. (The article mentions a steel footpath bridge in Norway). Here's one I think is particularly interesting: a reasonably faithful replica at the 100-meter scale, built of pykrete [1] (sawdust-reinforced water-ice composite).

I can't find a good post-mortem article, but it looks like it collapsed during construction and was abandoned. (?)
> Advertising is actually about educating the consumer for many products

This is so obviously false. If education was the goal of advertising, ads would inform about the negative sides of the products as well. I've never seen that. The goal of advertising is to make people buy more using any psychological trick you can come up with.

If you want to educate people, you need to do actual education. Bombarding people with propaganda is not education.
Interesting that there are so many ways to implement ordered sets and maps. V8 takes a very different approach when implementing ordered sets and maps. It works more like a linked list.

Monorepo with NPM workspace right for me?
For my startup, I have a project which has TypeScript server and client app. Workflow is much better while using mono repo with npm workspaces. Right now I am the only developer, thats fine. I am paranoid about the situation when I have multiple developer working on this project. With monorepo developers will have access to all code. Isn't it risky when one of developer go rouge and use the code to deploy it in his own server and market it? Isn't it especially risky for startup which less legal resource.

Sometime, I feel it is good approach to have server and client in different repo and have 2 different team dealing with it and have common code in git submodules. With this approach at least 2 developer have to go rouge, which is less probable.

What do you thing about this situation. Am I overthinking about situation? Is this the common problem, if so how organisations deal with it?
Hi, and thanks for supporting CFF through the Zotero connector (for GitHub repos) now :).

FYI, we're in the process of improving the website atm, including a Rationale section, etc. which will hopefully make it clearer why we think the format is a good idea, at least for the time being.

As for your takeaway 2.:

`references` can take all kinds of references, not just software and references, including articles, so a paper describing the algorithm implemented in the software that the CFF file describes is exactly in scope for that (the paper being, e.g., a prior work).
A tiny hole in your defense is better than a huge hole.

Maybe something like this might work better for you? https://www.benosy.com/#welcome
Careful with such advice. Dogs might as well make your problems even worse. They smell bad, might make you smell bad, need a lot of attention, soil your home, cannot be left alone for an extended amount of time. And might even hurt you. In any case they will cost you lots of time and money better spent for your actual recovery.
There's more to screen readers than characters, otherwise we wouldn't even need aria attributes.

Also OCR is a solved problem if we ban any form of display/script font types.

I'm just believing what Rob Pike told me about his target users for Go.
Onlyfans is not employing their workers. They aren't bound to the rules since they aren't documented as "a porn site" and have no binding employment contract with them. These laws don't apply and I'm sure actual legal experts on these companies know this better than you.
I’m not convinced that this argument holds for the specific case of “a single global source of truth, with a structured and enforced update mechanism.”

Let’s expand your <Tetris> example. You didn’t specify whether both players are on the same computer or not. I agree that my <Tetris> instance should not depend on or conflict with any other player’s <Tetris> instance. What does that look like in practice?

Whether it’s local or internet play, we need a way to isolate each player’s game state. Each <Tetris> instance should only be concerned with displaying a single game state, and responding to at most one player’s inputs. What happens outside of that is not its concern: things like maybe logging into a server, knowing that there is a second <Tetris> instance running alongside it, knowing where garbage blocks came from, maybe knowing that my friends are online, etc.

To me, the obvious choice is to use something like

<Tetris state={app.player[0].gameState} />

If this is local multiplayer, there could be another <Tetris state={app.player[1].gameState} /> which has different input bindings. If it’s internet play, it could look the same and not have anything bound to inputs.

In either case, <Tetris> knows nothing about where its state comes from or goes to. But that state has to live somewhere for the app to access it, so where is it stored?
You could argue that the browser does provide you with a “free”, native tooltip OOTB.
Fixed bugs, improved performance, took the afternoon off, ~project got cancelled~, ~team~ got restructured, the intern.
I guess the answer is semantics: who will guarantee (e.g. to downstream services) a CITATION.bib file will contain the metadata for the software in the repo? CFF is single-purpose and made for just that.
I think a more analogous question would be:

- Is there such a thing as food addiction?

Food is certainly something with a lot of utility, which we need to survive, and there is a lot of healthy food out there. But we're also able to create hyper-palatable foods - like cakes and fast-food hamburgers - which effectively hack the brain's reward system: i.e. the reward signal you get from eating these foods is greatly outsized compared to their actual utility.

Some people are able to enjoy these foods in moderation, and other people cannot resist the temptation and eat these to the point that it's detrimental to their health.

I think it can be argued that the internet is a lot like that.

>Pornhub has the same producer/subscribers model and is doing fine.

No it doesn't. They "verify" users to upload, but they aren't necessarily verifying every second of content they upload. Which is why the site STILL has copyrighted content (e.g. animated hentai) uploaded.
I was infected 3 times in last 9 months, according to my IgG level. First time I was one day away of hospitalization, 20% lungs damaged. Second time it was 37.1C temperature for 3 days (for those from imperial system, norm in 36.9) and no other symptoms. Third time I didn't notice at all.
You remind me of something a Physics professor once told me.

He said (I'm paraphrasing) "when you get to really learning the Physics, it's not an incremental logically consistent picture rooted in mathematics like in the textbooks. It's mostly a bunch of little tricks that you learn when to apply, and sometimes you get somewhere."

He wasn't making a pedagogical point, but I wonder if being compelled by the "learn by invention" style is in some way detrimental to learning how to solve hard novel problems.
Is this how "the good place" is built and run?
I think parent means "paying somebody so that you can physically use their body".

Clearly, paying somebody to use their own body to e.g. pitch hay for you isn't much different from paying them to use their own body to do any other kind of physical labour for you.

Paying people to be physically intimate with you is definitely different. But it's worth considering cases that don't involve sex: carers dress you, they wash you, including your sex organs and your arse, and they clean up after you.

All that is definitely physically intimate - arguably much more intimate than a 15-minute bump-and-grind session with a person that despises you.
The standard is nothing. The people will not let Sacramento override them. If a non-bond non-tax ballot initiative is passing you best believe the legislature fucked up.

Of course Californians will not give the legislature power to modify. That would defeat the point of overriding the legislature since those guys meet way more often than the every two years the voters get.
Maybe they plan to get investors on "the hardware is great, it's only the software that has to be finished" just as with FSD.
We're trying to bring CFF to other platforms as well, so everything just becomes stickier ;). E.g. https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/issues/337368.
The same can be said about other addictions, especially substances or alcohol: they provide an (unhealthy, dangerous) escape from other stressors in the person's life.
> The only way would be to wear N95+ masks yourself.

And properly. Almost no one wears one properly, because it requires training, correct sizing and e.g. to be shaved. Mandating that everyone wears masks without training people is lunacy. When they inevitably don't work people lose faith is science because they were told there was scientific evidence that they will help, when in fact scientific studies were made only in specific, limited conditions.
I Can’t Forget the Lessons of Vietnam. Neither Should You
As time goes on my experience is that I get more and more intellectually and spiritually isolated, even in a globally connected society. Perhaps it's an inevitable part of continuing personal deveopment in a society changing dramatically over time.

Ask HN: Why don't Indians use PC performative gender-pronoun theatrics?
PC - politically correct. Like I never see an Indian engineer Twitter account with he/him, she/her, they/them, xe/xem -- on the rare occasions I've seen that it's associated with an indication that they're either: in "Bay Area"; or work at a FAANMG

Are they more resistant to brainwashing? Less woke and aware? Just don't care and see it as a neurotic mostly-North American obsession? Aren't into virtue signaling? Get a 'pass' because they're belonging to a 'protected minority' (inside a white country)? Because their parents would be critical so they don't? I do not understand why gender-divisive warfare has not taken off in India... or among the diaspora....and why has the progressive left not made it their next recruitment target? Or is it just not yet? Or is there something in the Indian culture, or psyche or 'national identity' that resists these sort of ideas? Would they interpret it as a sort of 'dressed up as progressive but colonial none-the-less' imposition?
This is something that you can do by providing a `preferred-citation` in a CITATION.cff file. This will be rendered on GitHub as the thing to cite. See the schema guide section about this here: https://github.com/citation-file-format/citation-file-format....
>is it even plausible?

The last commercial anthropomorphic was the Willow Garage PR2 back in 2010. It weighed 600 pounds, and had a wheeled base. Each arm had a max payload of 4 pounds. It cost $250,000. The company went bankrupt because there wasn't anything you could do with it.

The tesla bot is supposed to be bipedal, only weigh 125 pounds, and have a "arm extend lift" of 10 lbs. Is that per arm, or both together? Even BD Atlas weighs 196 pounds, and it doesn't have hands!

Like, any one of their numbers would be exceptional. All together, and you are definitely sacrificing something. Either onboard compute is minimal, or it has a battery life measured in dozens of minutes. Something.

They claim a deadlift of 150 lbs. I don't want to say "impossible!", but... difficult? Just holding 150 lbs with any of the robotic hands you can buy on the market today would be hard or impossible.

None of the five finger hands today are as compact as shown in the concept renders. If it does ship with a five finger hand, (stupid, pointlessly expensive) the forearms would be far bulkier. An easy bet is that the first gen will ship with a three finger gripper.

That is, if it even ships at all. BD Handle is a much better design for a humanoid-ish industrial robot. It's going to be simpler, faster and lighter for the same payload as this hypothetical Tesla bot.
Pronounced as 'europe-erotically'.
Indeed. I was kinda ”library addicted” when I was young. But one had to work much harder back then to find the really good and interesting stuff. Scanning through shelf after shelf. Finding a librarian to aid me if I wanted to look at a title in the closed archive in the basement. And I couldn’t stay in the library till 11 pm since it would close at 7pm or so. When I was about to head home I couldn’t carry 60 books in my backpack. So it was much less accessible than what the Internet is. The library was good! But it was different both in quality and quantity compared to the Internet.
Typical piece for a 20th century historian with a conservative bent but I think the comparisons between Russia/China/Iran and historical enemies etc are deeply misplaced and if you're looking for the end of the American empire much more focus ought to be spent on the state of liberal democracy in the US.

China and Russia today are fundamentally not comparable to the Soviet Union or even Nazi Germany which is an insulting comparison when one considers the damage done by the Axis forces to either country. Today even though there is conflict there's no stark ideological opposition as such, there is no real cold war. The global economy is still integrated, climate change is a global issue, and so on. The aging population, strength of conventional weaponry and so on make great power war seem absurdly costly.

When he starts quoting Churchill on the intelligentsia engaging in 'self-hatred' it becomes very obvious that Ferguson isn't interested in questioning the weaknesses of liberal democracy but rather demands loyalty to 'king and country' in the face of external threats. Activism is portrayed in the same light, even compared to Soviet sympathizers during the cold war.

This narrative of self-reflection as weakness is I think one of the big reasons why the US struggles. There is little reform, little intellectual capacity to envision alternative futures, and secular malaise and stagnation.
You mean “the most democratic”. It is direct democracy in rare instances to overrule the indirect democracy. The people speak and only the people can undo what they make.
