> Picturing Git: Conceptions and Misconceptions

Based on the title, I was expecting a more in-depth study of user misconceptions about git, similar to the famous CogSci paper "Two Theories of Home Heat Control." Except with like, diagrams.

And now I want someone to make that happen.
What part of that don't you like? You'd still need to authenticate your device no matter how you present it. You just don't have to unlock the device to validate your ID. It would work exactly like Apple Pay.
China also banned feminine-looking male celebrities

What kind of insanity is this? This is beyond stupid
That's not a slope, but a cliff -- and they've gone over it.

What has amazed me is how there are many Aussie's who agree with the rules and are happy to comply. It's amazing.

Deploying Scylla Operator for Kubernetes with GitOps
This is a bad inference
I was looking at perhaps buying a Model X in the UK, but having that ridiculous yoke forced me is a complete deal-breaker.

Who the hell even thought this was a good idea? It could only have been conceived by someone who has never driven before!
I am assuming that this, along with the elimination of earlier one-child policy, is a part of a response to the demographic time bomb China is facing. The most important question they have faced for the past thirty or so years is whether China would grow rich before it grew old.

I think we now see that the answer is that they are, at best, going to be middle class when the demographics of the country turn against them. If you look at a population pyramid of China you will see two things that should be worrisome: the male/female ratio for 30 and under is heavily skewed towards surplus males, and there are not enough children under 30 to support the two big population bulges who were born just after the cultural revolution and another born in the early 90s.

Given these demographic realities they need to do anything they can to prop up the birth rate, and I am sure someone thought that attacking 'girly men' was a worthwhile effort. (If you want to see some really wacky responses to this sort of demographic scare, check out the things Russia has been trying to do for the past couple of decades to increase its birth rate.)
Well, compared to 95% of countries the UK is. You've got the US as top dog, an unproven China, and Russia able to act with impunity in their back yard but nowhere else. Then you've got the UK and France, able to project solid power anywhere that isn't landlocked, and quite a few that are.

It's not even superficial. A chroot is a limiting case of a container that only rebinds the filesystem; or, equally, a container is a chroot that also rebinds the user namespace, process namespace, networking, etc.
I'm not sure who downvoted you. I can't downvote comments that are responses to my comments.

I don't believe person who did this was motivated by cowardice. More likely annoyance or exhaustion. Or just wanted to express that he thinks you are wrong but wouldn't bother with writing a comment.

Let's stick to math and physics though.
I'm guessing that removing the ads was just a test to see what kind of donation conversion they would get without them and they quickly realized that it would be nowhere near sustainable.
That is a risk, but it's tough to localize and hit a moving target. In any major conflict the reconnaissance satellites are likely to be knocked out quickly on both sides, which means everyone will be relying on aircraft and submarines to develop missile targeting tracks. They can't be everywhere at once. And carrier escorts now carry ABMs which have proven at least moderately effective in tests.
Yes, but that’s not what I’m describing.
Designing Data Intensive Applications has treated me well, getting me through pretty much every system design interview I have had.

I am going to move onto either

* O'Rielly Designing Distributed Systems or

* O'Rielly Architecture Patterns with Python

Could anyone recommend either one?

I am mainly a Python dev (with no particular love for Python), but that doesn't necessarily make me want to use the Python book more.
Having code examples I can grok immediately is nice, but I also enjoy the exercise of translating concepts to code myself.
I've had the opposite experience.

The only thing Flutter has going for it is the batteries included aspect, which can be a bad thing as well. I prefer the flexibility of the React stack, being able to match different libraries vs a framework. E.g. maybe you want a more native router, use Wix's native navigation, otherwise use react navigation. Maybe you love reactive programming, use observables, otherwise maybe generators for side effects.

The apps Flutter produces don't feel right, RN does have a more native feel since it uses native primitives. Kinda like wxWidgets vs QT. I'd rather use native controls than trying to mimic the look and feel of native (and keep up w/ changes). This is especially noticeable on iOS and even more so on web.

React Native was definitely not an after thought, it's simply another bridge. I've had great experience with all the bridges. RN for Windows / Mac (both the MS fork and Catalyst), and RN for Web.

I've made and work with a production React Native Web / React Native website and apps. It's been very pleasant to maintain apps and a website (desktop & mobile site) with one codebase.
What happens if you just don't do it but are where you're supposed to be?
What's impressive is the build; even using exactly the same circuit, I would have gone the reliable (ultimately) time-saving route of schematic -> PCB.
It's like working for your mom.
> I never thought that any piece of software I wrote would have any longevity at all and I'm super surprised to find out that many pieces of software I wrote have some longevity and of course, Bash is the most famous of those and is now available on multiple planets as well as basically every computer that exists on the earth today.

Not a bad legacy at all.
Fake SSDs being sold by Amazon – Make sure you check for CHIPS
By and large, they disarmed themselves. To say "they were disarmed" glosses over the overwhelmingly voluntary nature of the reduction in gun rights.
Add Idaho to the well-armed-and-free list. While we didn’t do quite as well as Florida on the non-draconian front, things were normal-ish here far before many other states.

Though the correlation is heavily confounded, obviously. Red states by definition have a bunch of conservatives, who both despise lockdowns and are more likely to have guns. So it’s unclear how much firearms matter, strictly.
If I read this correctly, the repository has to be public so Deploy can fetch the code. Or does it work with private GitLab repos?
According to the announcement, that's exactly how it works. It uses the same functions as Apple Pay, Transit Passes, and Rewards cards to authenticate/authorize and then uses the new digital ID standard to present.
Which U.S. political party will allow that to happen during their administration?
How does this have nothing to do with communism? Li Guangman specifically calls out capitalists. What would a communist country think is the opposite of capitalism? Doesn't take a detective to know he means communism.
Perhaps, people didn't fully understand how much their safety could be improved by avoiding contact?
This isn’t the communism I wanted!
In the 70's and early 80's you could buy handheld pong game machines that were actually mechanical. The cases were all jazzed up to look like they were electronic, and some even moved a tiny lightbulb around the "screen," but they were all gears and string inside.
Yet it would have been impossible for many folks to even imagine such things 1,000 years ago.
Just like in China, how everyone who doesn't support their country is obviously a paid shill that needs to be silenced.
The Realtime API is gonna be amazing! Also very excited about Magic URL authentication :D
I fully agree, English is a terrible language for the reasons you name (and a far longer list that you didn't). It is what we have though, nothing else currently dominates world commerce at this time.
That reminds me about the old joke about monads: At the moment you finally understand them, you lose the ability to explain them.

Seriously, I too find the basic concepts of git quite simple. But whenever I want to do anything slightly out of the ordinary, I find myself wasting a lot of time searching the docs. In fact, I find the naming of commands and their options almost the opposite of intuitive, given my understanding of the basic model.
Your first response is exactly why I asked that question. Most of the time, people who feel strongly about this topic struggle to find a rigorous definition which can actually be dissected.

> 2. The ability of a person to consciously observe, question and disobey what they feel. The degree in which a person is capable of this varies between different people and different circumstances.

And this of course raises the question of _where_ the choice to disobey feelings comes from, what factors are at play in that decision making process, and whether this process is even meaningfully different from just acting on your feelings.
At the moment it can only ping humans via app, but that would be super cool.

Of course most codebases are shit, but it matters a lot more when a Rails codebase is shit than in many other languages/frameworks. The reasons are mainly:

1) The amount of "magic" available and how much it's used—in low-magic scripting languages or frameworks, you can at least grep to find definitions, even if better code navigation tools aren't available. The more often the answer the "wtf is this?" can't be known for-sure until runtime, the harder it is to find your way around, and the more memorization you have to do. Rails and its ecosystem are very high-magic, even more so than something like the roughly-comparable Django. It can be annoying to even figure out which gem defines a given symbol, in a given context.

2) The level of reliance on tests to keep things from falling completely apart. Tests are generally good things, of course, regardless of language, but a poorly-maintained test suite in a Rails codebase is a far more grave problem than it would be in, say, a Go or Typescript codebase (yes, it's mainly the static typing that makes the difference). That is, keeping the codebase viable requires more active attention and work.

This is exacerbated by Rails being a common choice for bootstrapping startups (the library ecosystem, especially Devise, which might be single-handedly the main reason Rails wins as many "what should we use?" discussions as it still does, is a pretty damn strong argument in its favor) and bootstrapping startups having a tendency to go through multiple teams in short order (contractors and external dev teams being common, both in the early days and in the somewhat-later, very common, "oh god the cut-rate shop we got to build this fucked it up, please save us" phase) means that a whole lot of live Rails codebases have been treated very poorly, and that, for the above reasons, a Rails codebase that's been treated very poorly is a special kind of hell.
They didn't reject them with guns.

Also I don't believe statistics exist for which states have more guns than others. And I also don't think your comment has any kind of real basis in research as to correlation between COVID lock downs and gun ownership, other than conservative voters being anti-everything in regards to coronavirus.
I've got a lovely set of headphones that can do either. They've got your standard Bluetooth headset features, but also a 3.5mm jack that works completely unpowered.
Doubt. Good luck not getting instantly banned on Gab for left wing opinions.
The problem with Flutter is that the result is absolutely unusable on web due to rendering to canvas. They implement maybe 2% of the non-appearance features that browsers do for native elements. I haven't heard of the HTML renderer but if that is coming it could be a compete game changer for the viability of Flutter-web outside of games.

Got several bad Crucial SSDs...

Aamzon will replace if caught early enough, but will refund the money if not caught in time.

I didnt catch the fake or bad in time as they were spares, which I then attempted to use after my SSD went bad and I went to replace it from my stock of spares and discovered the fake and the bad, 6 months after I bought them...

I don’t think it’s just Americans. I think it’s a natural human reaction.

We always need high level stress in my opinion. We need to always have a little bit of “it’s bad” in our life to set our priorities. Being comfortable for more than a few months is the absolute worst thing that you can ever do to yourself.

People who have time on their hands at home watch their neighbors and become Karens because they don’t have anything important to deal with.

People who don’t have an existential threat of world wars and a small country taking over the world don’t think it’s worthwhile to guard against that. (Not that I want a world war.)

They say you don’t know good until you’ve had it’s bad and I think that’s so true.
> It’s worth noting that the well-armed states like Texas and Florida have rejected draconian restrictions while mostly disarmed states like California

Florida is the 40th state by gun ownership per capita, California is 43rd, Texas is 26th. Saying “well-armed states like Texas and Florida […] mostly disarmed states like California” is an example of employing partisan-leaning based stereotypes (EDIT: And, really, probably ones driven by which states of which leanings have governors prominently in the news right now for partisan reasons), and not any real criteria of “well-armed” vs. “mostly-disarmed” states.
Some people can't get a good enough OTA signal for a digital receiver to work. In my previous apartment that was the case even though I was probably only 10 miles away from the stations I cared about. That led me to look into things like Locast and become a donator. It's also super convenient since you can watch things on a phone or tablet. I mainly used it for watching Jeopardy in the kitchen while watching on an iPad.

Exactly. I find it to be rather egotistical that tech people think all the problems can be solved with some clever software. I mean I get it, but if we spent half the time engaging in finding civil solutions I bet we’d get a lot further than browser ad block.

What never works about these types of news stories is that they rarely find the person paying for this legal protection.

In the case of greek letters (particularly zeta..), these are fraternity and sorority organizations claiming three letter combinations as their copyright.

If you can come up with a reasonable next step for frats/sororities in the US protecting their brand/image while also not creating ridiculous stories like this, you're basically a policy wizard.
That's cute but less accessible than I'd expect from a site that discusses the importance of web a11y so specifically.
I put on my $30 watch on Monday, and usually have 30-40% the following Monday when I put it on the charger again for an hour. I’ve developed the habit of charging it during a weekly meeting Zoom call that I have at work.

If you really want a “smartwatch on your wrist”, because you’ve wired up all your home appliances into Apple’s ecosystem or some use case like that, then great. A smartphone’s battery life may be acceptable.

But if your use case includes, “track my heart rate 24 hours a day, my overnight sleeping patterns, and be an alarm clock and practical timepiece”, then paying hundreds of dollars for 18-36 hours of battery doesn’t really make a lot sense against the other options available now.
Well, in Australia it basically is, yeah… Part of the problem is that people can have such different ideas of the terms “left” and “right” depending on their perspective… In the US, I don’t believe there even is a mainstream “left wing” party. The Democrats are obviously to the left, but I would say (trying to be objective) they’re mostly centre-right with a touch of identity politics.

In Australia, our opposition has really moved from the centre left to the centre right as the party in Government has moved further right wing, mostly just over the last few years. We still have a left wing minor party, but they don’t get many seats yet.

Yes, practically speaking, having an escape hatch makes a big difference when you work for a bad employer. But I’m not talking about quality of life.

I’m talking about the model of decision making and how distributed it is. That is fundamentally more important.

Ironically, HN is throttling my account for talking about this.

An important distinction that often gets lost is that React itself is an abstract, standalone layer above web and native. It handles deciding what to render and when. When you learn the concepts of React, you're learning this layer.

Then there are layers that decide how to render. Regular React has a renderer that accepts HTML tags spits out HTML for the browser. React Native has a renderer that accepts more abstract tags (<View>, <Text>) and spits out native views for apps. There are other projects that make renderers for making PDFs, animations, etc.

React Native for Web is basically a renderer that accepts the abstract tags React Native uses (<View>, <Text>) and spits out HTML. React Native does not really help you directly port a web app to native, but React Native for Web is designed to directly port a native app to the web.
NI isn't going anywhere any time soon. There have been no realistic proposals on how to handle the border.
Is nihilism or hedonism bad? A lot of people already live their lives for pleasure (hedonism) - people work their entire lives to earn money to either enjoy / vacation / sex / etc. Nihilism is considerably rare but I believe that's because it's opposite to hedonism, in a way.

Dart strikes a perfect balance between dynamic and strongly typed languages. Dart is better than JS, typescript and java combined. It has a great VM that makes development easy, an AOT compiler that generates native binaries like Go, and can also compile to Js just like typescript. The language is familiar, easy to learn and the type system is very powerful, sound and non-nullable. Dart SDK includes everything you might need: standard library, code formatter, linter, static analysis, JIT and AOT compiler, package manager, dev tools etc. Right now Dart found its niche in Flutter(which is great imo), but I wish there was a backend framework like Django or rails that would leverage this amazing language.

Obama's TPP was a much better counter to China than anything the Trump administration accomplished. Too bad your "tarred and feathered," President didn't have the vision to take effective steps, and instead took loud, boisterous, and largely ineffective measures instead.

Once his advisors realized the reality in , they begged to get back into the TPP at the original terms, but that ship had sailed. [https://www.ft.com/content/bc65dd72-3f2d-11e8-b7e0-52972418f...]

Nothing trump did China wise ever made up for this disastrous failure, and all of his tariffs hurt Americans even more than they bothered China.

I could go for something that lets me know I have cash sitting in my bloated inbox.
I was living in Shanghai in 2018 when the Chinese National People’s Congress lifted the two-term limit for Chinese presidents, effectively making Xi Jinping "dictator for life." My feeling at that time was that this is a sign not of strength, but of profound weakness. If Xi was so unconfident in his legacy that he could not find a worthy successor in the usual amount of time, what did that say about him? And about China after Xi?

In my 4.5 years in China (I left in Nov 2019) the country seemingly became more paranoid, with noticeable increases in internet censorship and street-level policing, as well as intensifying nationalist propaganda in everyday media.

We all saw what happened in Hong Kong in the past couple years. We know what has been happening in Xinjiang for longer. China is clearly at war with the "enemies within," and this article gives me an extremely similar vibe. To my mind, this all adds up to weakness, not strength. The Xi regime is trying to forestall dissent, fragmentation, and collapse. Will they succeed? Maybe. But at what cost? The brain drain on China is continuous, the capital flight steady. A "second cultural revolution" may strengthen and perpetuate the CPC's grip on the country, but it ultimately weakens China, and is hardly a threat at all to other countries.

It might give us an idea of how many types of models we would need to correspond to all genetically reasonable types of neurons.

(my interpretation of the comment) For example, if there are like 8 free variables on neuron formation from the genetic blueprints, and then we find they produce reasonably different neuron types about 16 times over the range of that variable. We could end up with 4 billion possible models that we would need to simulate all possible neurons; then I guess you'd want to reduce those by saying that these two were like these other two and starting condensing them down; I'm not sure where this would go, but maybe we would find something cool or find a new insight by figuring out all possibilities
