Ever since I adopted a Zettelkasten, I find myself learning and retaining much more effectively.

The habit forces you to distill insights in your own words and make connections to your current knowledge — mimicking how your brain learns.

Regardless of the source, reinterpreting it in your own words is key.

See Sonke’s “How to take smart notes” — or this primer article [1]

Crash course for a programming language, for hardware or something, pictures. I write down notes into my own notetaking app. Drawing/writing helps me sadly (rote).

Depends if I'm learning to get something done or leisure. I don't know why but I can't stand reading large blocks of text so I usually pass it through a TTS like Amazon Polly to listen.

I'm passively working on my own browser extension NLP, nothing new, I was looking at this text summarizer on Rapid API that seems to be pretty good. Though I have to compare what it comes up with versus what I would summarize from an article. The NLP/summarizer are not relevant, just related to condensing info/peaking without reading through it like a thread.
Ask HN: Who was the most competent person you worked or collaborated with?
Who was it that left an impression on you and potentially influenced the way you work? What did they do, how did they work, what habits did they have to earn that distinction?

Don't necessarily mean technical work, anything that would cause you to think of them.

On Android, I use Google Pay all of the time for in-app purchases, and it doesn't require Google to take 30%.

It's just another payment processor. It often shows up beside "add a credit card" in apps. I use it to order food, pay for rideshare, buy tickets, etc.
Google.com dark mode is rolling out to everyone
None of those are objectively true. Please research the term by googling it before declaring things are objectively true about it.

The top google results show it’s taken by many to be a sexist term.
Just to be clear here (and this fact doesn't really detract from your point) - Apple Pay is very different to Apple's In App Purchases. Apple Pay can be used anyhere, and it could still be used if a company rolls their own purchase system on their website that they link to from the app. Apple only gets a very minor % cut of Apple Pay transactions, from the bank, compared to Apple IAP where Apple gets 30% from the developer.

Besides, isn't the competition here what we want? Apple IAP are still easier, and probably will convert at a higher rate than pushing a user outside the app to do the payment on a website, so there's still incentives for developers to use them. If Apps switch away from IAP, then Apple is incentivised to actually compete (imagine that!!) and make something better that developers actively want to use.

It says something about the state of competition where Netflix can just say "no, we no longer want people to sign up on an iPhone and give us money". That says they don't think IAP is good, and Apple should actually work on building something that companies want to use.
Haskell and Ada have very different goals. Ada is designed, in part, to work on embedded and real-time systems.

It isn’t really an “attempt” either. The language exists and is used and has developed as experience was gained. Why bother with it? Because you could maybe learn something new despite it being old.
"The point" is muscle-bulding and bone density, as that is what the above user was responding to in context.
I have a BenQ 32inch 4K thing. It was about £350.

Just get that. If you care about the panel a lot then you'll have to pay more, I think refresh rates are out of the question
First example is English:

> How will users from these countries react to an English, British or American flag?

I stopped reading right there because no one cares. If you have users that care then provide them with choices, just don't let them get stuck wandering around a page in Russian or Greek or whatever because you thought someone might be offended by a flag. Perhaps they're offended by crappy websites with no obvious way to change the language? I know I am, show me any flag from any part of the former British empire and let me get on with what I was doing.
Apple Pay charges the banks a percentage per transaction on the credit card, despite not taking absolutely any of the risk in that operation. Plus a quarterly fee per card.

Do you think the banks are going to foot that bill? Of course not: it's us, the consumers.

Are you willing to have everything be a bit more expensive, for everyone, so that you, apple users, can have something a tiny bit more convenient?
There are so many conveniently chosen facts and holes in your argument that I don’t even know where to begin.

The CDC dataset you cite above only reflects death, not the serious illness and disability ~30% of people end up with.

Yes, vaccinated individuals can spread COVID, but this is dramatically less likely if you are vaccinated.

You assume you’ll be less likely to spread delta because you’ll quarantine, but you ignore the fact that much of the transmission we see is from asymptomatic spread, before people even know they are sick.

All of the mental gymnastics, for what? Getting vaccinated is barely even an inconvenience and we have real proof from hundreds of millions of doses that it’s safe and effective.

The selfishness and unwillingness to cooperate for the greater good is mind blowing.

Let's say your GUI has several input boxes. You want to validate those boxes. You need something Turing-complete to do this, because if it isn't Turing complete and the tool is used by lots of people, someone's GUI will require it.

> the whole low code movement is about this

That's OK provided you accept that it limits what can be done.
Interesting. It seems like in the "real world" WER is not really the metric that matters, it's more about "is this ASR system performing well to solve my use case" - which is better measured through task-specific metrics like the one you outlined your paper.
Are you seriously arguing edge cases here? It's on level with anti vaxxer claiming his smoking overweight uncle had no problems with corona hence we both don't get vaccinated.
apple pay expressly forbids being used for digital content delivered within apps.
So I was looking at SotA loss functions from a few years ago that weighted the CTC loss by the WER of the decoded phrase.

Could we generalize the WER weighting to optimize for the domain?

Something like

weight = w1 * WER + w2 * phonetic similarity + ...

which also requires a hyperparameter search... But we are already dumping so many GPU hours here.

I assume this is already being investigated by Google, though?
Apologies. I will add the correct tag next time.
Will I be able to use it with King's implementation, or my local pizza place's outsourced app?

edit: I was instantly downvoted without any discussion, which doesn't add to the conversation. The reason I ask is because that's what the key value add is of Apple's IAP - I know that my payment method is accepted on the app store.
I would say that the field of medicine is still in its infancy. All we have is whatever our best understanding is today. It could all change tomorrow.
The title needs a correction: "Audit of AI with ties to white supremacy finds no AI and no white supremacy"
It explicitly prohibits Apple from prohibiting any form of In-App purchasing, not merely links to external payments methods.
The meat substitutes are made out of soy and various other lately scarce ingredients.

I was so excited up until I saw the implementation.

- It's triangular-prism geometry forces the use of 2x 2.5" drives. So, you can't put 4x 3.5" drives into this as with most other quad-bay NAS offerings. Why provide capacity for 4x drives if software RAID10 for large drives won't be an option?

- It's designed for a regular Raspberry Pi 4 B instead of a CM4. Seems like they could have saved space (enough for 4x 3.5" drives instead of only 2?) and provided more useful ports had they gone with the CM4.

It will still be a good solution for someone interested in providing storage for their existing Raspberry Pi 4 B.
Your link doesn't address better protection against variants specifically, just better protection against reinfection in general. The linked study specifically states that it does not include delta.
Online court systems are here to stay. They're much more efficient than traditional in-person court, both in terms of overall time spent and in manpower.

There are still a lot of kinks to work out, such as how to handle court decorum & technological disparities such as low availability of high speed internet and good quality camera systems/lighting/privacy.

Personally I think the federal government should contract for an app other than Zoom because if I had to go to trial I wouldn't feel very comfortable knowing it was all being hosted by a private company, but that's a minor gripe.
I don't know about a engine workflow, but I was inspired to make a few games in JavaScript after reading the book/website http://gameprogrammingpatterns.com by Robert Nystrom

That helped me understand frame-tick/physics-tick aspect at least, and how you could offload some processing onto separate queues of events.
Yes, it's a pretty small town. My undergrad was approximately that size.

Of course, smaller exist! There are functioning towns in East Texas with less than 500 people in them! My favorite is Caledonia; cherished memories are that upon crossing the border my father would pull his best BB King impression and belt out the eponymous tune.
While asserting the reliability of RAII in C++, which only works out if you don't have devs that do stupid stuff like the example above.

You might consider that example stupid and argue no one would ever write code like that.

To which I would answer you haven't reviewed enough offshored C++ projects.
Who pays the rent for your home office?
I do the same. Read enough about the topic that I'm sort of aware of what's possible and to get some terminology right.

After that it's project time. If I don't have a project of some sort it's impossible for me to get going. Then picks the simplest sub-problem, and build from there.

If it is something I absolutely need to know how to do, then I do it over and over only muscle memory kicks in. When I need to learn how to use LVM I most have create, delete, recreated expanded, reconfigured and killed a hundred volumes.
I'm the same. The mere presence of someone that I might interact with throws me off. I worry that I'll have to interact so block myself from focusing on the off-chance I'll be thrown out of focus.

It's fucking exhausting sometimes...
Apple's concession didn't apply to games; only "reader apps".

Apple's concession also limited to one link, whereas this refers to links in the plural, and also metadata (eg app store descriptions).

The Roman Empire fell so I don’t know if it’s a great argument that intentionally lowering the life quality of your citizens is a good idea.
My friend's company is actually struggling with a "bot attack" at this very moment. Someone has about 100 bots who are tweeting malicious and untrue messages about the company. It's really obvious that these are bot accounts, but there doesn't seem to be a way to get rid of them. We've tried reporting them and contacting Twitter, but they are still there, tweeting away.

These are obviously 'bad' bot accounts, but there's no indication of when, if ever, Twitter will get to them. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to handle such a scenario?

Should apple appeal this? Is it really worth further damage?

It turns out the little guys were right all along. It's surprising that it took legal action for apple to realize that, when you invite millions of third parties in your marketplace, you should treat them with some respect. And when this leads to prices of purchases going down, how are people going to keep justifying apple's position.

I think the biggest win is that micropayment services will grow which is good for all developers (not just in iOS)
I had a dozen people try to describe Monads to me, many of them Haskell programmers.

The one that finally made it click, was from a very senior Haskell dev who said:

"People overcomplicate things. "Functor" is a fancy word for an interface that has the .map() method, and then "Monad" is a fancy word for a interface that has ".map" and ".flatMap" both"

Or something like that, I think. This probably isn't totally right, but IIRC it's something like this:

interface Functor<A> {
map: <B>(
transform: (a: A) => B,
a: A,
) => B[]
}

interface Monad<A> extends Functor<A> {
flatMap: <B>(
transform: (a: A) => B,
a: A,
) => B
}

Which helps me to think about it and understand it. None of the other explanations made any sense.

Well according to the past hacker news thread I linked, it’s not racist but people find it sexist. That is also what many of the top google results for the term report
> More choice is always a win for the customers.

Not if it solely results in fragmentation. Having the choice between Ubisoft Connect, EA Origin, Steam and Battle.net isn't a "choice", it's just 4 different storefronts for me to manage credentials for.
What I see in "software engineer who is bad at business" is that is broad and not useful. We can discuss specific flaws with specific person and think about course of action to fix it.

Telling someone "you suck" is not first step to fixing anything.

Just like laughing someones system has so many holes as Swiss cheese.

You want to be specific like you have an XSS here and here, those are steps to fix it.

I don't know how it's possible to write a whole essay (albeit an excellent one like this) about Dublin without mentioning James Joyce, except in passing.

I spent five days there, completely as a tourist. There are lots of things in the essay that you'd only see as a resident, or at least, someone with a lot more time. Or maybe, someone who's read this book beforehand.

PS: Lest you're expecting one more citing of Ulysses as "the greatest novel ever written": I took a whole course on that book last year at Stanford Extension. I came away decidedly not thinking that anymore. I think a lot of Joyce's literary "innovations" are old hat nowadays.
And it's a demonstration of just how much cold air is falling out when the door is opened. While less convenient, a chest freezer will do much better at holding the cold air even when opened.
I feel certain there was a court case about this, but can't remember it. It's similar to the company that re-sold edited versions of popular movies.

Doing this as a sale, for electronics, you'd probably fall afoul of certification problems (e.g. whatever boxes Underwriters Lab had ticked wouldn't apply to the modified version). There would be branding issues. And regardless of whether it turned out to be legal, you'd 100% draw a lawsuit from the original manufacturer.

If it were to work out at all, this would probably have to be done in a way that (legally at least) the customer is not buying the device modified from you. They would have to purchase the device first, then bring it to you to modify, for which you charge a fee. Even then you'd probably still get sued.

Not a lawyer, though, so this is just speculation based on following tech over the years.
This will certainly get appealed and bogged down even more in the legal system, right? What are the chances this actually happens? And when?

Secondly, this is such an easy way to increase your take by 20+% that I would imagine almost every publisher is going to be offering their own payments platform, not just the biggest ones like Epic.
the injuction only applies after 90 days. Likely both Apple and Epic will appeal.
> it wasn't about "hey, let's nuke that country, then we'll gain an advantage".

Initially LeMay wanted to strike the Soviets first with nukes while the US had the monopoly on that technology, because his reasoning was that when the Soviets would have it, they would not hesitate one second to strike the US with it.

I can see his point, in the context of the time. Glad that nobody followed his recommendations, though!
I'm amazed that when asked to provide code they didn't at least feed whatever data to an off the shelf NN to show something.
I think they mean systems with a SIM card or internet access without being tethered to WIFI.
Thank you for sharing.

> some believe mandates are illegal and constitute government tyranny

This isn't a vaccine mandate. You are free to choose to be tested or vaccinated. Do you feel being forced to make this choice is tyranny, if so how bad do things have to get before the good of society becomes more important than your personal choice?
I remember I was enjoying XSLT; I used it to create templates and, in the end, valid XHTML pages. I thought that's the future.
TAKE NOTES!

No, really. It took me a long time to realize that my brain sucks, and forgets things all the time. Writing things down gives me a frame of reference and physical (or digital) token of my knowledge. A lot of people champion the idea of a 'mental library,' and I believe a good Zettelkasten system lives in the brain much the same way.
Over their states rights to hold slaves, which were an important component in the agrarian economy and an established part of the Antebellum culture.
Not saying I disagree with you, but all the examples you gave are about some things that are a privilege or just optional (e.g. if you can't build a bridge to follow all the latest standards, you can just postpone it). Working is not really a privilege, you have to do it in order to survive.

A pretty important one, I think. Paramount to, "Would you like to live in hell?" And especially having children - you'd need to be extremely stupid or sadist to have a child in such a world, especially knowing the high chances of them being born malformed etc.

Isn't that how any convenience works? Credit cards already increased the price of everything for the convenience of using credit cards, as an example. I'm old enough to remember there was once one price for cash, and another for credit cards.

The fact that consumers don't want phones with 7 years of guaranteed updates (if they did, they would be willing to pay more for them, and smartphone makers would happily oblige) means that the impact on resale values would likely be small, or that consumers are unlikely to try to resell their phones.
This meme about “Jacobson vs. Massachusetts” doesn’t seem as strong an argument as the useful idiots believe. It’s an example of the court affirming the right of a State Legislature. It says nothing about the right of the executive branch of the federal government to forbid private transactions between employers and employees, unless the employee submits to a medical procedure mandated by executive order.

I’m sure the argument falls apart in many other ways. You can probably find the counter arguments in the same Twitter thread where you found your talking points – just make sure to unhide the tweets containing them.

Yes. There are programs that will open the files and display the data. Some even make charts. But it was all pretty boring stuff.

I always wondered what stew of genetics and upbringing makes someone extremely funny. Its actually a pretty rare trait for someone to be 'professional quality' funny as evidenced by going to a few open mic nights.

I think a lot of people want to be funny and the hustle is admirable, but I wonder if professional comedy is an inherent talent not something you can just read a book about.

Still you don't know if you don't try.
I don’t believe it is in the books. I’d have to dig out the blue book and verify. But I think most of it comes from Rippetoe himself - forums, seminars, YouTube, etc.

For example, I went to one of his seminars in 2008 (I think. It’s been a minute). And someone asked about slow running in Maffetone zones, and he said paraphrased - “Look. You do what you want. But don’t come whining to me that your squat keeps stalling. I’m just going to tell you to stop running and eat more food”.

Depending on what you do for cardio, it will have an impact on the muscles. It’s not just calories. If you run/jog, the impact on your joints will accumulate with the lifting impact on your joints. And I think this is because beginners gravitate to Starting Strength. They try to do everything. They don’t know how to do things in moderation. So (IMO) it’s easier for the Starting Strength world to just say “No. Don’t do cardio”. Just some of the coaches are very, very draconian and less than flexible about it.

Why would it? The court basically dodged the question, so we still don't have an answer provided by the court system. Until that happens, we can discuss it to death if we want!

Edit: excerpt from the ruling is:
"Given the trial record, the Court cannot ultimately conclude that Apple is a monopolist under either federal or state antitrust laws. (...) The Court does not find that it is impossible; only that Epic Games failed in its burden to demonstrate Apple is an illegal monopolist."
