Why should they justify common sense statements? Your lack of basic understanding of economics doesn't justify your complaints.

"Low taxes good". In your expert opinion, what kind of justification would be needed to justify this statement?

'The smartest person in any room, anywhere': In defence of Elon Musk
FYI: The US and Japan have an acoustic sensor network that monitors and contains the 9-dashed line area for China's submarines - chokepoints.

So the main reason for Japan and Taiwan to have a closer relationahip is to track submarines in that oceanic area, which is considered critical.

Since 2010, China has had operational nuclear-powered submarines with MIRVs. They spent 50 years achieving that - and they're aimed at the US, of course. Nuclear submarines are noisy (pumps), and China's doubly so.

Also, there's an arms race in that region thanks to Obama's disregard of mutual defense treaties, resulting in Xi's takeover of Scarborough Shoals from the Philippines and the ADIZ around the Japanese Senkaku islands.

The erosion of America's international credibility started by Obama just increased dramatically with Biden's bungling of the Afghanistan withdrawal. US Democrats in the White House are hapless. There's no point in spending billions on military hardware when nobody believes you can or will use it.

Our allies and enemies feared Trump, while they pity Biden, who's a shell of a man plain for all to see in videos since 2012.

Yes it is, and while I've not seen any evidence, I suspect that's partially why AutoDesk are changing their subscription model.

As for dongles, you can pay to have them cloned. Claimed turnarounds cheaper and faster that getting them from the software supplier in at least one instance. I've not used it, but godamn was tempting.
They're not putting bunker oil into fuel cells. It's usually something like ethanol or pure hydrogen.

Those subs generally have separate diesel fuel tanks for the surface engines. Although in theory the hydrogen for fuel cells can also be generated by reforming diesel fuel.
Exact same comment, exact same article: doing well on Reddit and poorly on HN
The link to our GitHub repo in a sibling comment probably does more justice than I could do in an HN comment, but it's essentially an ML-graph-to-machine-code compiler that focuses on accelerators.

The rationale for open-sourcing here, in addition to the general recruiting/hiring benefit, is that we want vendors to target a common interface so that it's easy to make direct comparisons amongst different hardware.

I'd say, though, that ML is moving somewhat away from the "graph compiler" approach. PyTorch (and users' experience with TPUs/XLA vs GPUs) has suggested that static graphs aren't desirable for usability or necessary for performance. These days, I'd say write a PyTorch device backend and a fast kernel library.
The article is a good start. I can add what's helpful in my experience: Core RBAC includes users, assignments, roles, permissions, operations, objects, and sessions.

For a system that implements RBAC, the objects can represent information containers e.g. files/directories within an operating system, locks on columns/rows/tables within a database management system, tags on resources within an application, exhaustible system resources such as storage or CPU cycles, etc.

The ANSI RBAC spec is here: http://www.list.gmu.edu/journals/tissec/ANSI+INCITS+359-2004...

AWS can't stop you from creating the CNAME, but AWS could stop Alice from creating the bucket, or (IMHO better) not serve HTTP(S) traffic for bob.com from that bucket unless it is confirmed that the bucket belongs to the owner of bob.com.
Elitist prejudice without any empirical basis. On the contrary, at least on my corner of the world, banks are the ones who completely abhor hiring someone who doesn’t have a 5 year degree in computer science. You could have a thousand stars project in GitHub, come from FAANG and most bank HRs would trow your resume at the trash bin if they don’t see CS.

> Apple does not report you to law enforcement, as this article claims. The article also ignores human review.

They do report you to a private organization who is primarily funded from the US Government and has zero interest in not passing along any information about potential child abusers.

If you believe Apple, there will be a human review element. What sort of people would go after this kind of job? I can't imagine. And this group will also have a huge incentive to err on the side of reporting any potential abuse content.

Edit: A legitimate, almost definitely "wants to the the right thing" private organization in the US. Have we heard about who gets notified in other jurisdictions?
I don't believe a team can be effective past small MVP stage without some kind of automated test that covers their product's critical path(s) especially from the customer side, and especially as headcount goes up.

Though I agree there are programmers who are overly dogmatic to the detriment of products.

But I've also met several managers who are preoccupied with the idea that devs are too perfectionist even as their products are morasses of technical debt and untested code.

It seems to surface as a symptom of environments where management isn't technical enough and judge products and progress superficially.

You’re talking about the design of the language. I’m talking about the adoption of the language. C++ was also intended to be very boring, very easy to teach.
Your data model is the heart of your business. Let's say you have a genetic product and require the user to upload their dna results and certain datapoints are taken and stored. If you decide later you want different datapoints and have not saved the original uploaded file you can't offer past customers new products.

Your architecture can change.

> Am I missing something? How would AWS S3 stop you from creating a CNAME? Or how is this their responsibility?

They (AWS) should not accept traffic on that hostname until ownership - tightly bound - is proven.

This also helps avoid related cases, such as deleting a bucket (which now frees it up) - other services like Heroku have similarly been vulnerable to this takeover hack because of a lack of strict verification: https://0xpatrik.com/subdomain-takeover-providers/

Every new bucket, service or account handling traffic for a domain should require re-verification. That verification should never persist beyond the lifetime of that resource.
The solution proposed uses the fact that oil attracts plastics in water: vegetable oil is mixed with iron oxide to create a ferroliquid, which then attracts plastics and is easy to remove using magnets.

Why does oil attract plastics, though? Because both are non polar. Here's a good r/askscience answer: https://www.reddit.com/r/askscience/comments/meqh0/why_is_oi...
Tell HN: Search a YouTube video's title on Google to get chapters
Some YouTube videos have helpful "timestamps with descriptions" to help navigate the segments of the video, which are called "chapters".

Not all authors go through that effort, though. When a video does not contain "chapters"/"timestamps with descriptions", you can quickly copy the video title, then search for that on Google's search engine, and it will likely return an "automatically chaptered" video.

Example:

This video of Richard Feynman: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=36GT2zI8lVA does not contain "chapters".

However, this search query, simply copy pasting the title, returns one with "chapters", labeled as "key moments":

https://www.google.com/search?q=Richard+Feynman.+Why.&oq=Richard+Feynman.+Why.
Are you making a blanket statement that no antiviral treatment can possibly exist for long? I am not an expert, but Tamiflu is a widely available influenza antiviral.

Please make a comprehension effort: I am not suggesting that Ivermectin is some sort of miracle cure. I'm simply saying that I would sleep much better at night knowing that if the mRNA vaccines are evaded through evolution (they are narrower than natural immunity), there is a secondary line of defense, ideally with multiple alternative treatments. Whether these are Ivermectin (unlikely given the data so far), fluvoxamine (recently touted in the press), remdesevir, a derivative or something completely new, I don't know.

Edit. I looked up Tamiflu on Wikipedia, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oseltamivir. Alas, there are reasons to believe it not a miracle cure either.

> A 2014 Cochrane Review concluded that oseltamivir does not reduce hospitalizations, and that there is no evidence of reduction in complications of influenza.[9] Two meta-analyses have concluded that benefits in those who are otherwise healthy do not outweigh its risks.[10][11] They also found little evidence regarding whether treatment changes the risk of hospitalization or death in high risk populations.

A few years ago a little girl went missing and unfortunately was later found dead in a nearby lake. It was determined that she had been abducted and killed. The local news station reported that there were approximately 15000 pedophiles in the surrounding region.

I found it incredible that there were so many deviants known by the police in my community, they eventually caught the killer. He turned out to be a neighbor and confessed.

I think the police are well aware of every download/upload of child porn or are atleast they are able to look it up when the need arises.

The time for concern of protecting ones privacy on any digital connected device has come and gone, best to assume anything You do on your device is readily available for the authorities(and others) to exploit.

This refactoring pretty well walks down the path of the expression problem [1]. Sometimes it's more convenient to have a fixed set of functions that accept different types, and others its more convenient to have a fixed set of types that offer different functions. One's not strictly better than the other.

The countersteer just causes the bike to lean. If you’re riding with no hands, the countersteer doesn’t happen.

Show HN: A C# library to help you enforce a Given-When-Then structured Unit test
I always strive to write better, clean and readable code. But I often find unit tests are hard to read, and especially harder to quickly identify what are the important pieces, or even what the test is testing about.

So I came up with this lightweight library to help enforce unit tests with a Given-When-Then structure. I hope you find this useful. Any feedback are welcome.

Expect everybody to follow suit. Year or two down the road this type of scanning and control will be mandatory.

As someone who's never used cloud-based photo browsers... I always assumed the facial recognition aspect was primarily for social media apps that try to tag known faces from a user's friends group, to put it in those people's news feeds or something. It's one reason I avoid being photographed and ask people not to tag my name to my face if they do post a photo I'm in. I'm wondering, what's the utility of facial recognition if you're storing/sharing photos on a service that has no database of known faces? Or is this just for image editing or red eye removal or something?

[edit] as I'm rethinking it, would this just be for searching your own images for a particular person...?
When you turn the handlebars to the right, it caused the bike to lean to the left. When you stop applying force to the handlebars, the front wheel “falls into line” with the left hand lean and they turn to the left.

However, it’s so subtle that in practice you don’t feel them turn back to the direction of the turn and it fully feels like you’re steering right to turn left.
Exactly, why would we expect the same results?

I don't know about "astounding" and "remains opaque". From classes I actually already (mis)assumed that rna had glycans, because almost every single thing your body produces has glycans put on it, and glycoscience is a pretty established bio subfield it seems. The surprising thing to me isn't that glycans are on rna but that researchers hadn't checked, if this groups is the first to.

Your coworker isn't a 10x developer. He's a workaholic in dire need of an intervention that he won't get because he has a "respectable" addiction. As long as your bosses are happy with your work, he only matters because you let him matter. Cut it out. And if your bosses compare you to him in front of you, start job-hunting.
There seems to be several misunderstandings in this article. For instance:

> Your phone will run your images through NeuralHash, and compare to the list of forbidden hash codes. If there’s a match, some data will be uploaded to Apple’s servers when you upload the image.

Your phone doesn’t know whether there is a match or not. There is no “if match then upload”. The safety voucher is attached to every iCloud upload, not just the matches.

This is why Apple can’t just flip a setting and scan all your images regardless of whether you add them to iCloud or not. If they wanted to run this against all your images, they’d have to either upload all your images to iCloud (easy to spot; difficult for them to do without consent) or change the way this mechanism works (not “just flipping a setting”; if they wanted to scan all your images, then why build it this way in the first place?).
I also understood it as if they lost the domains.
> Apple does not report you to law enforcement

Technically, but not substantively, true since they report to the NCMEC, a government-funded government-established “private nonprofit” that is delegated a whole bunch of jobs for government, including gathering info on CSAM and distributing it to law enforcement for DoJ and processing child return/access requests under the Hague Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction for the Department of State.
The core problem here is reporting to prevent CSAM (hopefully, it is uncontroversial that doing so is desirable) but rather that this makes on-device snitching on any topic a matter of -policy- rather than -technology-. It is much harder for a government to say, you must implement this large and complex feature, you must keep it secret, etc - especially a foreign government - than it is to say, here are some new hashes, please plug them in to your database that four people have access to. Or to say, please scan all images instead of just those uploaded. Even if Apple wants to right by its users, it is making it much easier for Apple to be compelled to do wrong.

“We promise” is easily forgotten. “We can’t” requires dev teams to change.
Many TV and radio commercials still say "backslash" in URLs. They're just wrong, it's never been a backslash. I was being mean.
It feels like there are far too few controls on this study for anything other than "more research is required" conclusions.

Notably:

1. Did fatigued and non-fatigued users participate in the same style of camera display? Were they held in presentation, face to face, or "Brady Bunch" mode? Did users have self-view on, shrunk, or off?

2. Of the 100ish participants selected, where is the control group who received no guidance on when to turn cameras on or off? Do they have a similar variation in fatigue between genders and weeks?

3. It seems odd that the gender variance in fatigue was selected for review and the managerial / employee division was not. Given that 45% of the sample was supervisory this would have been a useful element to understand. One would normally expect that supervisors will be less fatigued by video camera use as it may be their policy, or they may have more experience.

The final step missing is checking the framerates - those systems use dynamic clocks and can potentially throttle.

There are human reviewers at Google, Facebook, and every other organization that has to moderate content. Not a novel idea.

I loved motorcycling, but gave it up because I could not accept the risk (about 7 to 10 times more likely to die per mile driven vs a car). The most common (about 45%) cause of a motorcycle fatality is a car making a left turn into a motorcycle. I took a lot of training classes, had good gear and always practiced my situational awareness, but after my advanced riding instructor with over 35 years of experience and the best gear money can buy was killed instantly by a driver in a minivan texting while making a left turn, I gave it up.

The feeling of riding a motorcycle is truly amazing and I absolutely miss it, but the risk factor is simply too high for me to be worth it.
I love vim, but I can no longer see the case for pure-vim (besides devops/infra work where the most basic vim setup is usually enough) in the world of IDEs + Vim mode.

Ive been down the rabbit hole of setting vim’s code intelligence up (ale and all that), in the end it felt brittle and not good (vs perfect completion for golang/typescript in my IDE).

So Im curious, whats the case for going pure windowed vim like this?
